Personality

Devotion to the household he serves defines him. Even Shiki Kijima acknowledges that no amount of pressure or cruelty will pry loose a single detail about Yuuma's master, a stubbornness that ultimately shapes how his captivity plays out.

History

Yuuma is out on a hunt alongside Matsumae and several other ghouls when investigators running the Rosewald Investigation spring an ambush and take him prisoner. In custody he stays almost entirely silent, which draws the attention of Shiki Kijima. Kijima leans on him to learn a fitting place to deliver a grisly "present" to his allies, and when Yuuma yields nothing, his tongue is cut out. His death is later confirmed when Kijima, following the capture and beheading of Aliza, discloses that Yuuma had already died just after a recording was made.

In combat Yuuma wields a scaly kagune that manifests as a cluster of plain tentacles. It pairs especially well with Matsumae's ability: when she peels off her own kagune to raise a barrier, Yuuma can strike opponents straight through that wall while staying safely shielded on the other side.
