Background[]

IS-Tin Man

The perculiar "cyborg" has been wandering across Terra for years, with no one knowing his true goal.

The enigmatic Tin Man has a very mysterious background. According to some legends, he is described to be a man who lives inside an unhabitable volcano.[1] He is said to be a Sarkaz who lives up to thousands of years witnessing the Sarkaz's never-ending suffering such as the downfalls of Kazdel/Teekaz. Through the Nephesh of the Sarkaz, he possesses onto a cyborglike body, hence allowing to outlive any of his Sarkaz kin. And thanks to his lifespan, he is well acquainted with both the immortal Kal'tsit and the pre-amnesia Doctor as well. Currently, he is on his quest to search for the remains of the now-extinct Diablo, as he does not wish to see various political factions blaspheming his kin's bodies.[2]

In order to fulfil his goal, the Tin Man has been disguising himself to be a private detective. He also serves the Columbian NGO Maylander where he acts as the chairman of its Historical Association so that he could mobilize his men to carry on his age-old mission.

As a renowned detective, the Tin Man is excellent in investigating many incidents. Notably, he figured out the tragedy of the Crimson Troupe and helped Saria reveal the secrets behind Rhine Lab's "Project Diαbolic" such as Kristen's approval for the experiment.

Thanks to the wrathful power of the Sarkaz's Nephesh, the Tin Man possesses extraordinary Arts that could bend space and matter onto anyone that comes close to him, causing his opponent to fall into temporary unconsciousness.
