Bang Shishigami
''A man among men, who places above all, loyalty, sympathy and courage. He is the leader of his ninja clan, serving his master, Tenjo of the Ikaruga Federation.

''The scar on his face was left by Jin of the NOL, during the Ikaruga Civil War. At the same time, Bang loses his one and only master, Lord Tenjo. Though filled with despair, he swore to himself that he would follow Lord Tenjo’s final words, ‘No matter what, do not hate the Librarium. Do not think of revenge.’ Thus, Bang focuses all of his energy on rescuing the refugees of Ikaruga.

''He currently resides in what is known as Ronin-Gai of Kagutsuchi, planning the reconstruction of his motherland, Ikaruga. To raise the necessary funds for such a feat, as well as serve justice to the world, he becomes a ‘Vigilante,’ picking off bounties whenever he can. Now, he is after the most notorious of them all, Ragna.

''His hit-blooded nature and over-the-top personality is hardly what one might expect from a ninja, but once in the heat of battle, he is quick on his feet and mind, never losing his cool, executing decisions with precision.

''Upon hearing rumors of Tenjo’s true ‘heir’ from Valkenhayn, he sets off on a quest to find him. But during his quest he learns of Tenjo’s dying wish from Platinum, and accordingly heads for his true home, Ikaruga,

''There, Bang learns that the 55’ Nail is in fact a Nox Nyctores – the Phoenix Rettenjo, and that there was still an unearthed conspiracy surrounding Tenjo’s death.
