chizome akaguro [1]

Stain the hero killer

Chizome is known for preaching. He seems to think poorly of pro heroes who work as heroes just for the pay and dislikes the fact that they call themselves "heroes", even thinking that they are not worthy of being heroes. However, despite his attitude, Chizome seemed to respect All Might, commenting that he is the only one who is truly worthy of being called a hero. Furthermore, even though he is famous for killing heroes, he does not like to shed blood without a cause, for this reason he hates people with immature behavior like Tomura Shigaraki. He was also reluctant to attack and kill heroes in training, instead asking them to stand down. However, he resorted to violence when Tenya Iida and the others refused to leave. Chizome strongly believes in creeds and convictions, stating that they are necessary to achieve anything and that without them, people would be weak and eventually cease to exist.

Chizome despises the society the world is living in, considering the current society to be full of false heroes. Despite being a villain, Chizome wishes to correct the flawed system the current society is living in and purge it, so that real heroes will appear, even going so far as to tell Tenya how to be a real hero, instead of worrying about his revenge.

Despite his extremist views and beliefs, Chizome has genuine ideals about heroism which he staunchly strives for. He does not hesitate to save people he deems worthy of being called heroes, he does not like killing without reason and even gives advice to his enemies. He seems to recognize that what he does is morally wrong, but he considers that if it is what needs to be done to guide society to the right path, then someone should be what he is, indicating that he considers himself to be a martyr of sorts.

Stain has hair in a mohawk cut and a flat (due to his missing nose) and long face. He wears a sleeveless shirt, dark pants, and black shoes with metallic coating and spikes on the toes. He has a white bandage around the top half of his face, which makes him look like a mask. He wears a long, dark moth-eaten scarf around his neck (Red and White), he also has knee pads and a belt around his waist.

After being freed from Tartarus by All For One and returning to society on his own; He has a new outfit that consists of a white jacket with huge sleeves, his arms are covered by bandages and he now has dark gloves that match his pants. In addition to having two belts, one placed around his torso and the other around his waist in which two visible weapons are seen.

Half of his face is also covered by bandages that expose part of his hair and underneath them he has a mask.

Arsenal of Weapons: Before being detained, Stain carried several weapons with him, including a katana, five daggers, throwing knives, spiked boots, and pocket knives. Apparently, he was expert in using them.

Chizome himself cut off his nose after losing a fight against Knuckleduster.
He is an S-rank villain.
His name as a watchman (Stendhal) coincides with the pseudonym of Henrie Beyle, a "romantic traveler"/writer who suffered from temporary psychosis.
Stain shares some similarities with the character Garou from the webcomic/manga One Punch Man:
Both are the main antagonists of a story arc.
They both defeated a large number of heroes.
Their actions caused a great impact on the society where they live.
They are both against the heroes.
Both were contacted by a villainous organization and offered to join their ranks, and both rejected the offer. Stain was contacted by the League of Villains and Garou was contacted by the Monster Association.
Chizome, being imprisoned in Tartarus, was isolated from everything that happened outside, so he did not know what All Might really looked like, so when he meets him after escaping from prison, he does not recognize him.
