Nagoriyuki is a playable character in the Guilty Gear franchise who will make his first appearance in the upcoming Guilty Gear -STRIVE-. He is described as a noble vampire samurai who wields a bloodsucking blade.
Nagoriyuki is a tall, heavily built, dark-skinned man with blue eyes and thick, shoulder-length afro-locks tied into a ponytail. He wears a white coat with purple lining decorated with silver studs and snaps in the style of a haori, with only his right arm through the sleeve; the back of the jacket is emblazoned with red calligraphy for 心 (kokoro, heart) and the word “HEART” beneath. This is worn over a simple orange robe cinched at the waist by a red obi and three leather belts, which is likewise half-removed. Beneath this is a long white waist cloth matching his jacket, with several purple and blue straps embroidered with crosses and the phrase “KEEP OUT.” He also wears white fingerless gloves, black leggings, and simple gray sandals.
Most notable is his white mechanical helmet, which resembles a hannya mask with elongated horns and a rictus grin. In place of eyes and a nose is a featureless white surface marked with the same red kanji that appears on his coat. The helmet can automatically disassemble, retracting behind his head. He also carries a traditional daishō pair of swords sheathed at the hip, with the ōdachi locking into its scabbard via a mechanical apparatus in the hilt.
Like Slayer, Nagoriyuki is a vampire, and thus likely endowed with immortality and superhuman speed and strength. Said to possess a number of unique and powerful abilities, he wields a huge sword with impressive skill in battle and slashes at his enemies with punishing blows.
