Haohmaru's eternal enemy, Kibagami Genjyuro
Sagat originated the big-ass scar on the chest.
Kibagami Genjyuro, on the other hand, took it one step further. His big-ass scar stretches across his back. He also has some serious issues.
Either way, he is one of my more favorite Samurai Shodown players. I hope they stick him in Capcom vs SNK 3...if they ever make it.

Most of Genjyuro's special attacks are based on the Japanese cards deck known as Hanafuda, with the actual hands being derived from the game Koi Koi.
Little is known about Genjyuro's childhood; he claims to have killed his family and at least a thousand other people. His mother was a prostitute, until Genjyuro killed one of her clients. As he went to leave, she attacked him, leaving the scar on his back, and he killed her.
Eventually, he became a student of Nicotine Caffeine, along with Haohmaru. The two became very close friends and one of the best samurai in the academy. Then Nicotine decided to have Genjyuro fight Haohmaru to determine who was stronger, as well as to determine to whom he will give the scroll that would enhance the victor's abilities. The two men fought for hours, until Genjyuro defeated Haohmaru, and had to be restrained from killing him. Nicotine stopped the fight and banished Genjyuro; true strength does not mean killing a friend in a duel.
Genjyuro has made it his goal in life to bring suffering upon Nicotine and Haohmaru. He hates Haohmaru especially, because he resembles the man his mother was with when he killed them. He is travelling through the country, picking fights with (and most of the times killing) anybody on his way.
