Many people have tried to figure out what goes on in the depths of Daikon’s mind. The only consistent verdict is that he is completely and utterly insane. But amidst the utter chaos that goes on his head, there is some semblance of order, and an extremely brilliant yet cunning, villainous and manipulative mind with a psychopathic drive to burn the world the ashes.
His personality is never consistent, making it extremely difficult, if not impossible to predict his next move. He has no remorse for his villainous acts and revels in murder, torture and the spread of his own unique brand of chaos. He is known throughout the four Nations as a mass murderer, a deranged spree slayer and serial killer, and that’s just the tip of the iceburg. Daikon is wanted for innumerable crimes including robbery, assault, vandalism, extortion, arson and more.
One notable aspect of his deranged personality is that he enjoys the thrill of being chased or pursued. He gets a strange rush from having authorities try to stop his crazed schemes, thinking of it as a challenge and a game. He will usually fixate on someone, whom he focuses his efforts towards, establishing them as a sort of arch nemesis for the duration of his scheme or for much longer. He also has an obsessive need for people to know that he is the one responsible for his crimes, and enjoys leaving calling cards and clues which help identify him. He is always a step ahead of his enemies.
Daikon has been incarcerated into many different prisons and asylums, where even the most hardened criminals avoided him at all costs. Many tried to study him and to dissuade him from committing any more atrocities, but none succeeded. In fact, Daikon actually managed to manipulate many of the philosophers and sages sent to counsel him, making some his allies to continue his work on the outside, killing some outright during one of the ‘interviews’ they had with him, and even manipulating some to help him escape.
Abilities: (300)
The fact that Daikon isn’t a bender hasn’t hindered his deranged schemes at all. He has more than made up for it by utilising his almost unrivalled skill in alchemy. He is able to concoct a vast array of potions, toxins and gases which he employs from smoke bombs to hallucination inducing drugs to deadly poisonous gases, he has it all. He also is extremely talented at utilizing the skills and talents of others to his advantage, often without them knowing it, though he has many followers who would happily do his bidding too.
Though he is physically of average strength, and not skilled in any specific martial art, he is an extremely dangerous brawler. His relentless, unpredictable and completely crazed attacks, as well as the ability to completely ignore any pain makes him terrifying to fight one on one, even for the most seasoned martial artist. Not to mention the array of concealed tricks he carries with him to completely debilitate his opponents.
Arguably Daikon’s greatest asset in any physical confrontation is his deranged, yet brilliant mind. He is extremely talented at reading his opponents and is usually a step ahead of them at all times, not that it matters since he is so completely unpredictable. He employs various methods and tactics to beat his opponents without even having to lift a finger. He especially enjoys using mind games and is adept at making his opponent doubt themselves, become fearful or just become distracted enough for Daikon to get the edge he needs.
Another one of Daikon’s talents is his ability to spread his unique brand of chaos, death and destruction. He weaves intricate plans designed to spread as much chaos and anarchy as possible. He often uses diversions and mock attacks to draw the focus of his real plans.

Daikon's Mask
Daikon without mask
(273) Very few people have seen Daikon’s face, as he usually dons a mask when he terrorizes the people of the world. The mask mirrors his chaotic nature and is meant to strike terror in any he encounters. The mask is skeletal in appearance, but quite heavily modified to look more terrifying. It is split down the middle, revealing a white side on the right and black side on the left, meant to be a mockery of the Yin and Yang theology practised by so many, almost daring anyone to find any semblance of order within his twisted chaotic mind. Two bright, yellow and piercing eyes almost shine out from behind the mask, eyes in which the extent of his madness can clearly be seen.
Behind the mask is a face that no one would suspect. Daikon is in fact an extremely handsome individual, and perfectly able to make himself appear quite normal and sane, sometimes even innocent. However, this is far from the truth, and when he is not manipulating people, his eyes fill with a look of insanity and his smile contorts into one of sheer madness. His hair is red and messy, though he sometimes changes its colour and style when the need arises. He enjoys returning to the scenes of his crimes without his mask, to watch the reactions of authorities and civilians; sometimes he even plays the part of the innocent bystander who happened to see the whole thing and acts distraught as he relays the events to the authorities.
He is garbed in black attire, specially modified with many concealed pouches and pockets to keep his diabolical creations in.
Weaponry & Other Gear:
Daikon’s weapon is anything he can get his hands on and swing with. If there isn’t something around, he’ll settle with beating a person to death with his bare hands. However, he isn’t entirely defenceless. Being a master alchemist, he carries an array of potions, salves, and bottles filled with everything from powerful neurotoxins, to hallucinogenic drugs to chi enhancers. There is literally no limit to what he has in his bag of tricks.
History: (762)
The story of how Daikon became a twisted, mass murdering psychopath, is only known to Daikon himself. He grew up in a big Earth Kingdom family in the heart of Omashu, where he was an average kid who found his life quite boring and meaningless. He was pushed by his parents to study alchemy and before long he just accepted that it was going to become his profession. He ended up in the University of Ba Sing Se, where he quickly became a master alchemist and opened a little alchemy store in Ba Sing Se. However, he found life dull and boring. He never smiled, never socialized and hardly spent the money he made. He felt like he was just there, drafted into a society to fulfil a pre-determined role and that he was to work away his life, adhering to the order set by the world.
However, that all changed one day when he was walking to his apartment ready to pay the rent to his landlady. He was nearly at his destination when he was assaulted by a would be mugger. Instinctively, Daikon fought back, and after a tremendous struggle, he found himself sitting over his now lifeless attacker, with his hands tightly wrenched around the mugger’s neck. As he stared into the glassy eyes and contorted face of his attacker, a smile began to crease Daikon’s face. He realised he had just changed something in the ‘order’ established by those in charge. He felt powerful, and for the first time in his life he felt alive. He was no longer bound by the ‘order’ established by the kingdoms of the world. He felt as if his mind and been freed, and he had become a force of chaos.
He immediately went home and after casually murdering his landlady by bludgeoning her with a chair and then ramming her rent money down her throat, he began working on the tools he would use to spread his chaos. He began creating various poisons, drugs, and other diabolical concoctions. When he was done, he eliminated all evidence of the corpse of his land lady with a powerful acid he created.
In order to protect himself, he donned a terrifying mask whenever he went out murdering or spreading anarchy, truly believing himself to be chaos incarnate. Using is new tools, he went on a mass killing spree where he was quickly being apprehended and incarcerated. His time in prison deranged him even more; he would kill or gravely wound anyone who came near him, causing him to be locked up in solitary. Whilst alone for months on end, his mind slipped deeper into insanity, however, he insanity was not be confused with stupidity. He became hatching schemes, learning from his past mistakes, and refining his approach.
In time, he orchestrated a brilliant escape from prison, and resumed his villainous deeds. He knew however, that it would be difficult without bending or followers. But he had a plan to remedy this. Leaving his mask behind for a time, he began searching for curious, impressionable young woman with great promise in the bending arts. As he found them, he slowly manipulated and seduced them, promising them their greatest desires, or making them pity him. Regardless of his methods, they all fell in love with him.
He picked four benders with the greatest promise, one from each nation who would serve as his lieutenants in his battle against order, and got to work on them. With a combination of several terrible drugs and brainwashing techniques he uncovered from the historic order of the Dai Li, he drove them all to the same madness that he himself revelled in. With their old identities forgotten, he renamed them chaos, anarchy, discord and entropy (descriptions below). They were madly in love with him and done whatever he wanted, and would fulfil his every desire.
In addition to his four top lieutenants, Daikon also managed to amass a great many followers to his cause, all loyal to him, even unto death. Daikon and his new ‘Cult of Chaos’ had amassed more power than ever. Even some of the strongest and oldest criminal organizations were careful not to cross paths with Daikon and his crazed cult, due to that fact that anyone that got in Daikon’s way usually died an extremely violent death. No one was off limits; Daikon would kill anyone giving the chance.
Daikon has since been captured many times and sent to various prisons and asylums, though he always manages to escape and continue is fear and terror spreading madness.
Daikon and his top lieutenants

Chaos
|
Chaos was the first victim of Daikon’s evil scheme. She was a talented young firebender and acrobat with a taste for the occult. Curious by nature she enjoyed visiting fortune tellers and soothsayers and read many books concerning the mystical. Daikon noticed and easily exploited this, promising her what she was seeking, using his alchemy to create the illusion of true magic. Now completely deranged, as a result of Daikon’s brainwashing, she is totally loyal to him and only him and madly in love, willing to give him anything he desires.

Anarchy

Anarchy was very talented, young earthbender, who made a living training younger earthbenders the basics movements and forms. A hopeless romantic, she always dreamt of being swept off her feet by a handsome prince charming. Daikon encountered her on one of his journeys through Gaoling and immediately stepped in to be the dashing suitor she wanted to spend her life with. He managed to make her fall completely in love with him before he warped her mind. Now almost as insane as he is, she serves him without hesitation, still hopelessly in love with him like the others.

Discord
|
Discord was once a kind and loving young woman with a big heart. Always helping out wherever she could with a smile. Her waterbending talents however caught Daikon’s attention, and playing the part of poor broken man who lost his family he quickly gained the young woman’s sympathy and compassion. It wasn’t long before he twisted and utterly corrupted her. She now serves him without question and would gladly die for him.

Entropy
|
Entropy was the last and youngest of Daikon’s acolytes. She was an expert airbender, though very timid and socially awkward. Again Daikon saw his chance and slowly began to help her confidence grow. Before long she had opened up to him completely, trusting him completely. This allowed him to begin his manipulation of her, changing her from a timid little airbender into a sadistic killer, totally loyal to him and him alone.
