: A. Straight, boring answer is that he was a ninja, experimentally modified by a Chrysalis. This isn't necessarily a bad answer, as if we want him to live, he can still be alive in Oni 2 and we can build on his character. It's only really boring if he died in Oni. | : A.

:: 4. He might be Bertram Navarre. One can still ask how a scientist becomes a ninja, but we don't know Navarre at all, so if we want to write him as an athletic guy, or say that he built a suit to help him fight, we can. This would also explain why he doesn't give Konoko a Daodan surge when he is defeated, if he was Navarre or a product of Navarre's own non-Daodan experiments. But he indicates to Konoko in their encounter that they are both Daodan hosts, so this is probably a no-go. | :: 4. He might be Bertram Navarre.
