Dark Ruichi

Dark Ruichi is the darker and more bestial alter ego of Ruichi- While Ruichi is quiet and more reserved, Dark Ruichi is loud, maniacal, and swears profusely.

Dark Ruichi is the result of Ruichi's stepfather's twisted experiments to create a superhuman; that, plus many years of neglect and betrayal can cause Ruichi to take on more anamalistic qualities in his transformation to his darker self. Dark Ruichi grows draconic wings and can command dragon-fire in his altered form. He is also much more powerful, being able to decimate a city within a matter of minutes.

Dark Ruichi can be triggered if Ruichi undergoes extreme pain (physical or emotional).

Ruichi himself is learning to subdue this alter ego, and with the help of Nebula's love and compassion, he may ultimately succeed.
