Character Description: Nigredo
Nigredo, like his brothers, is a U.R.T.V. (U-DO retro virus). But unlike Rubedo, who kept his youthful appearance, or Albedo, who became immortal, Nigredo decided to be just another human being, aging normally and injuring and healing just the same.
Nigredo was injured during the Battle of Miltia, and was carried off the world by Rubedo, Jin Uzuki, and chaos before the planet slipped into the Abyss. Since then, he and Rubedo have been running the Kukai Foundation, with Nigredo posing as Gaignun Kukai, and his older brother his adopted son. While he doesn't possess any powers, he is a brilliant organizer, and often works closely with Shelly Godwin.
