Appearance

A horned mask conceals Wild Horn's face entirely, its two large protrusions jutting out to either side. Beneath it he wears a solid black bodysuit reinforced by plating across the chest and shoulders and cinched with a broad belt. Fixed to his right arm sits the Pile Bison, the weapon he is never without.

Personality

Serious and unbending, Wild Horn treats combat as a matter of careful strategy rather than brute improvisation. He took command during the effort to capture Scaledon and had little patience for Saitama's meddling. A protective streak runs through him as well, and he pledges to shield the heroes serving under his direction.

Abilities

His years on a construction site left Wild Horn able to build both his armor and his weapon by hand, a rarity that earns him public respect. Sitting among the strongest B-Class members, he is reckoned to rival an A-Class fighter. The Pile Bison began as an ordinary pile driver before he reworked it for hero duty, and its impact can shatter thick tree trunks, so controlling that violent recoil demands real strength. His plating shrugs off a storm of arrows from Shooter, and his reflexes proved sharp enough to startle Garou during an ambush. Even so, he was overwhelmed when Garou seized him and used his body as a shield against his own allies.
