Kengo Dojun, known as Blood Shepherd in LINK VRAINS, is a character appearing in the Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS anime. He is a bounty hunter who was hired by SOL Technologies to track down Playmaker.
Design
Appearance
In reality, Blood Shepherd is a man with purple hair with a navy blue underlayer. He conceals his identity behind grey glasses with blue hexagonal lenses and a maroon scarf that covers his nose and mouth. He wears a long denim blue coat with a high collar open over white pants and a pale blue shirt with a lilac lining.
In LINK VRAINS, Blood Shepherd is a masked man with a cowboy Western motif. His face is entirely masked, covered in grey skin and a twin-section "mask"; the top section is red and resembles the face of a bat with pink lenses, the bottom section is blue and covers most of his face. Blood Shepherd swathes himself in a light purple mantle with red lines running down it, and a green line running around its collar with a red rectangular clasp. He also wears a grey jacket with a high collar and green inside, grey pants with loose straps around the ankles, and grey boots with straps around the feet and red soles. Blood Shepherd's right arm is encased in a metal gauntlet; the forearm is stylized after the hammer and chamber of a revolver, and the knuckles and fingers are lined with red. These lines intersect with a black and red "eye" or "barrel" on his palm, which appears to be where he focuses his ability to destroy Avatars. His left shoulder has a hexagonal light purple pauldron lined with green, while his left hand is simply gloved.
Personality
Blood Shepherd is a consummate and ruthless professional. He bases his decisions largely on monetary gain, with no regard for personal attachments, and he considers Ghost Girl soft for refusing to hunt for Playmaker because she owed him. He displays casual ruthlessness by dissolving the Avatar of a person who harassed him and boasted of his own abilities to attack Avatars.
Abilities
Blood Shepherd displays the ability to dissolve Avatars within LINK VRAINS, which appears to be a function of his gauntlet. By grabbing the unfortunate Avatar, Blood Shepherd shocks them and they convulse, then go limp before dissolving. It is unclear if this deletes their data.
Biography
 | This summary is currently incomplete. |
Blood Shepherd is introduced waiting at a cafe in Central Station as the Penguin brothers harass the other patrons and chase them away, trying to claim their spot. The younger brother tries to intimidate Blood Shepherd, but is unsuccessful, so he and his brother threaten him with their Avatar-harming programs. Unimpressed, Blood Shepherd picks up the older brother and informs him that he can also kill Avatars, before proceeding to do so, terrifying the younger brother. Ghost Girl approached, asking if he'd accepted the contract on Playmaker from SOL Technologies. Blood Shepherd confirmed that he had, and criticized Ghost Girl for being soft when she stated that she hadn't as she owed Playmaker. When criticized in turn for making his decisions based on money, he replied that it was professional and warned her that he wouldn't show her mercy if she opposed him.
