Biography[]
Kinnikuman[]
Woolman is a Brutal Chojin from New Zealand who was contacted by the God of Brutality and ordered to work alongside Kinnikuman Soldier with the two meeting in a French Cafe and seeing Heavy Metal about to fight another Chojin but the two stopped when they saw Woolman.
Woolman was chosen because of how he was feared for being a "Devil in Sheep's Clothing" and his ability to generate static electricity which could be launched at an opponent as an invisible wave.
Woolman would work alongside Kinnikuman Soldier, helping him recruit the last member of Team Soldier that he wanted. They would travel to Canada where they would meet Bulldozerman who was willing to join the team.
Woolman alongside Team Soldier would appear at the sign-ups for the Survivor Match for the Kinniku Throne, once signed up they would travel to the mountains to train.
While in the mountains, the team would be challenged by a mysterious man who was Ataru Kinniku, the biological brother of Kinnikuman. They accepted and were all quickly beaten and killed by him, all of Team Soldier aside from Kinnikuman Soldier himself dying of their injuries in the mountains, their bodies being taken to the nearest hospital by someone who found them.
Woolman wouldn't be revived either by himself or by one of the Five Evil Gods.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Chojin Physiology: As a Chojin, Woolman has superhuman strength, speed and durability. Other abilities that Chojin have that Woolman likely has is the ability to grow to be as large as a building and the ability to fly without wings or thrusters, even in the vacuum of space.
Trivia[]

- Woolman's design, much like most of the designs in the Kinnikuman series, was a fan-submitted design which was sent in by Hiroshi Ishihara of Aichi.
