    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    The Crimson King is a Boss character in the Otogi series of games who is tasked more with establishing Raikoh's motivations and beliefs than acting as a true obsticle. Additionally he is unlike the rest of the bosses in the story he acts of his own accord attempting to collect the essences hoping to break the curse placed upon him and restore the entirety of his free will. His signature weapon is a large black club that he wields seemingly effortless.

    Appearences

    The first time The Crimson King makes his presence known to Raikoh is in the "Palace of Gold," appearing only after a large amount of gold essence is obtained, he attacks Raikoh but after a few quick hits he retreats. The next time Raikoh finds himself face to face with the demon its under "A Chilled Moon" where The Crimson King attempts to steal the collected essences in an effort to restore his entire free will. 
     
    In Otogi 2: Immortal Warriors  he can only be seen on the last challenge mission where he confronts Raikoh to get revenge for taking his horn. When seeing Raikoh taking orders again The Crimson King challenges Raikoh on the ability to act of his own  free will,  presumably attempting to release him from this perceived bondage. It is through this fight however that The Crimson king does realize Raikoh is not without his own free will and decides continuing the battle would be pointless. He leaves promising to meet Raikoh again someday.
