[Edit] Added the ancient symbols on the blade, and fixed the handle of the blade as well

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Doku, one of the Greater Fiends, he is a heavily armoured dark knight who stole the Dark Dragon Blade from the Hayabusa clan for the Holy Vigoorian Emperor. However he does not use this weapon as he has a weapon of his own, the Kitetsu.

"The evil Dark Dragon Blade... A legendary sword, said to haven been carved out of thee bones of a Black Dragon. It brought plague and death to the world during the age of ancient myth. It has been sealed by those of the Dragon Lineage since the dawn of history because of its incredible capacity for evil, made possible by the souls of the vanquished Black Dragon that dwell within it. It is said that if the Blade's seal were to be broken, it would gather the hatred and evil of mankind and confer it upon the one who wields it, transforming him into the Devil incarnate; however not even those of the Dragon Lineage who protect it know the true extent of its power..."

Well many of you might have seen the WIP for this piece which is now in my scrap pile. This was done as a practice in painting metallic surfaces and some fire.

Reference was used for the head because it was extremely hard to find a decent reference for this character, thus I drew most of it by memory.
