Doma

Doma is a tall, muscular young man with very pale skin and long, pointed nails tinged pale purple. His platinum blond hair is parted to one side, with shorter strands flaring around his face and longer ones spiraling down his back. His most distinctive feature is his eyes, which shimmer in soft rainbow tones that fade into one another, a look so unusual that followers believed he could speak with the gods. The Upper Rank kanji is etched across his left eye. He typically wears a deep red turtleneck patterned to look as though a dark substance drips down his body, paired with pinstriped hakama and plain tabi socks, and he sometimes adds a dark cloak, a gold-trimmed crown, and a pair of golden war fans.

Outwardly Doma is warm, cheerful, and charming, the very picture of an approachable holy man. In reality he is a cold, calculating individual who devours his own followers, convinced he is granting them peace by letting them live on inside his body. He is clinically incapable of feeling genuine emotion and admits the concept is alien to him, so he mimics warmth to deceive everyone but the sharpest observers. He looks down on humanity as pitiful and even weeps out of pity for it, yet his apathy lets him analyze any situation without panic. A self-described nihilist who denies any afterlife, he led the cult only because his parents placed him there and he played along out of contempt for their beliefs. In his final moments he seems to feel a true emotion for the first time.

As the second-ranked demon and one of the most powerful ever to exist, Doma combines deadly martial skill with a cryokinetic Blood Demon Art. He overwhelms the Insect Hashira Shinobu Kocho without difficulty, defeated the Flower Hashira Kanae Kocho in the past, and can hold off Inosuke Hashibira and Kanao Tsuyuri at once with little effort. He fights using tessenjutsu, the art of the war fan, wielding two sharp golden fans that he laces with ice to extend their reach and lethality. His cryokinesis lets him conjure freezing mist, frost lotuses, icicles, and even miniature ice copies of himself, and the cold he produces is poisonous to the lungs of anyone who breathes it. He possesses one of the strongest regenerative factors in the series, rapidly adapting to even Shinobu's lethal wisteria poison, and can absorb a human body through simple contact.
