Ryuji Yamazaki

Ryuji Yamazaki was driven insane after his Yakuza boss was killed. Although he has little memory of his past after this incident, he murdered his boss' rival and fled from Japan to Hong Kong. He continued to be an influential broker, weapons dealer, and drug trader with Kowloon Walled City as his base of operations.

Yamazaki has psychopathic tendencies with a love for materialistic articles and money. He is the calm and confident gangster at one time and is clearly mad and hysterical in another. He likes to harm and injure everyone and anyone. He subconsciously keeps his right hand in his pocket because his idol once praised the power of that particular fist. He also carries around a knife with him at all times, which he seems to have a degree of affinity toward.
