Gyaku

Gyaku is the main villain in Kasumi Ninja for the Atari Jaguar.

History
Gyaku was originally among a group of elder ninjas who resided on Kasumi Island. He went berserk and killed all of his brethren before he proclaimed himself as lord of the island. He also seized control of the island's temple which contains much power. Gyaku was not satisfied with his control over the island, though. He developed plans to rule the world by acquiring the temple's power and opening a portal to the underworld. The island's other inhabitants learned about Gyaku's agenda. They started a tournament where the remaining fighter will stop Gyaku in the last battle.

Battle
Gyaku fights by using the art of Ninjutsu. If the player doesn't perform a death move on him, he will transform into a reptilian/humanoid hybrid. He will become stronger and have the ability to spew fire. When second form of Gyaku is defeated, he will die.

Success
If the player finds the key to the temple, the portal to the underworld will be sealed. Peace will then be restored to the island and Gyaku will die.

Failure
If the player doesn't find the key to the temple, the portal will remain open. The fate of the island or world isn't mentioned but Gyaku will still die.
