Lore & Background
Karaka serves as one of FUG's elite Slayers, a rank reserved for those with the power and ambition to challenge the Jahad Empire directly. His armor, a unique defensive item, allows him to manipulate steel-like threads and unleash devastating attacks. Unlike many FUG members who operate in the shadows, Karaka takes a more direct approach, often clashing with Rankers and even other FUG factions to further his goals. His hatred for the Ten Families, particularly the Khun family, is a driving force, though his true motives remain shrouded in mystery.
