The Alchemist
Kinzo is the elderly patriarch of the Ushiromiya family, founder of their fortune. He rules Rokkenjima with an iron will, obsessed with the occult and Western magic.
His defining trait is his obsessive love for Beatrice. He spent his entire life trying to resurrect her, performing countless magical rituals in his study.
He created the Ushiromiya family crest, the One-Winged Eagle, and built his empire from the gold Beatrice gave him during World War II.
"Beatrice! Come to me! I call upon you with all my soul! BEATRIIIIICE!"
Kinzo's love for Beatrice borders on madness. He spent decades performing rituals to resurrect her, sacrificing his sanity and his family's happiness in the process.
His eldest daughter, whom he dismissed due to her gender. Eva's lifelong ambition to lead the family stems from his rejection and disdain.
His second child and Battler's father. Rudolf inherited much of Kinzo's cunning but none of his occult interests.

He has formed contracts with 72 demons, including Gaap and Ronove. These demons serve him in exchange for his soul and devotion.
His study contains vast alchemical texts and artifacts. He has spent decades mastering the forbidden arts in pursuit of resurrection.
