Name: Ogun Ryo
Stripper/Codename: Ogun
Age: Unknown
Client/Worker: Client
Relationships: Logan Howlett is his mortal enemy as is Kitty Pryde and he will do whatever it takes to get his revenge on them
Personality: He was once an honorable warrior, but his personality changed through the centuries and he now only serves himself. He is interested in only those who have spirit to stand up to his full power and is even willing to offer them some training if he believes they can survive.
History: It has been said that Ogun is capable of killing a full grown Water Buffalo with a casual slap, he has boasted to have mastered over 13 unknown martial arts now forgotten by time not counting his own style. He believes himself to be above petty constraints such as guilt and innocence and was sufficiently strong willed enough to defeat death itself and reclaim a foothold to the material realm.
Ogun was responsible for training Wolverine and putting him on the path of the warrior known as Bushido and was Logan's surrogate father figure giving Logan the tools to control his inner rage. Ogun 1st met Logan in Japan during the year of 1910, Logan a vagabond Sailor and Ogun a Captain in the imperial army of Japan stationed in Shanghai. Logan witnessing a belligerent soldier attacking an old man and a young man interfered on their behalf, Ogun also witnessing his fellow soldiers in the same act dishonoring themselves and disgracing their uniform came to apply his measure of justice adhering to the code of the samurai.
Logan managed to stop a rifle swing from hitting the old man but angering the Soldier who cocked his weapon ready to fire upon Logan, Ogun coming to the rescue slashed the soldier across the back with his military sword killing him instantly. Ogun turning to face the young soldier who was unable to restrain his fellow soldier from dishonoring himself and the uniform told him he would kill him for his failure and the least the young soldier could do is die with honor and not beg for his life.
at the height of its swing Logan stopped Ogun grabbing his wrist telling Ogun the young soldier did not need die that the young soldier tried to stop his Sergeant but was unable. Ogun angered to have been touched by a westerner swung around to attack Logan but was astonished that Logan held his ground and was unafraid of death, instead Ogun sensing something whether noble or Para-human about Logan offered to teach Wolverine the way of the Samurai giving Logan his name and that of his school , Ogun Ryu Dojo in Kanazawa.
Logan in his own belligerent way refused and mockingly answered
" If he ever needed to learn how to swing a Pig-Sticker he would look him up".
Walking away back to the ship docks drinking his bottled alcohol and singing a sailors song as Ogun and the Old Man(mystic) watched Logan walk away both sensing something special about him.

Using this ability Ogun was able to impart his knowledge to Kitty Pride of the X-men.
Ogun has an indomitable will and mastery over his physical body. Once during a battle with a rival samurai in front of Logan, Ogun dropped his sword tired of the prolong sword fight offered his body to the rival Martial Arts Master ordering him to kill him. The rival Master not refusing stabbed a fatal stab at Ogun's torso a clean kill for any mortal but, Ogun began to laugh pulling the sword from his body he killed the Master who was in shock and unprepared to defend himself. Logan unable to make sense of what just happen began to believe their was more to Ogun then he initially believed he might possibly be a god, demon or immortal.

Ogun was killed by Wolverine during a mystical ceremony involving Kitty Pride while his Guard was down stabbing him in the heart and too weaken from the ceremony. Due to how Ogun was killed without honor or in mutual combat and killed by Wolverine in a rage, his spirit could not rest and sought a final confrontation with Wolverine. Ogun as a sorcerer had placed various mystical enchantments on various items one of which being his Demon Ceremonial Mask. It could never truly be destroyed and it would be inhabited by a portion of Ogun's soul.
