Appearance

Ko-Guy takes after the very plague that birthed him. He is a sizable, humanoid curse that closely mirrors an ordinary grasshopper, standing upright on two of his six legs while using the remaining four as arms.

Personality

Intelligence is not Ko-Guy's strong suit. He can speak and hold a rough conversation, though he stumbles at times, and despite barely qualifying as bright he is convinced of his own cunning. Nearly everything he said to Yuji circled back to boasting about his cleverness or pressing the sorcerer on whether he was clever too. When Yuji pointed out that genuinely clever people do not announce it, Ko-Guy was caught off guard and clapped a hand over his mouth.

Abilities

Born from the collective human hatred of locust swarms, Ko-Guy eventually fell in with Kenjaku's faction. As a grade 2 spirit able to communicate, he held combat strength surpassing some semi-grade 1 curses, though he remained well short of a typical jujutsu sorcerer's wits. In Shibuya he was assigned two simple duties: protect the commissioned curtain and kill any non-sorcerers. When Yuji entered the B2F level of Shibuya Station and asked about Mahito's location, Ko-Guy answered and mentioned the curtain he guarded; Yuji then opted to exorcise him to dispel it. The curse was quickly overpowered, attempted a surprise attack that failed, and was destroyed, prompting Mahito to remark that only a strong sorcerer could have managed it.

His grasshopper physiology granted arms, jaws, and eyes he claimed were far beyond a human's, along with every insect trait turned toward combat. His powerful legs let him dart across an enclosed space, and his jaws could chew clean through a metal sign. He could spit black mucus, the same substance locust swarms once spread across the land, as a projectile, and his abdomen could harden and stretch to roughly three times its length to stab as a sneak attack, a move he tried and failed to land on Yuji.
