Takehaya Susanoo no Mikoto is the god of storm in Japanese mythology.
Summary []
Susanoo is summoned by the goddess Izanami to aid her during the fight between her and Rokuhara Ren.
Appearance[]
Susanoo looks like a middle-aged man who has black hair and black eyes, and his body is extremely muscular. His hair is in a style that was common in old Japan. He wore a loose white garment and a hakama. The clothes on his wrists and knees are tied with cords, allowing free movement. A shizuri sash was warped around his waist and a magatama was dangling from his neck as a necklace.
Personality []
Susanoo is brave, proud, and fierce. Befitting his mantle as a war god, he also shows an overwhelming love for his mother, Izanami. He's overjoyed by her summon and devastated when accidentally kills his mother. As a god, he shows an immense disdain towards godslayers. He also demonstrates a cunning battle strategy during his fight, despite his status. Susanoo isn't shy from playing underhanded tactics. However, he's easily blinded by his own emotions as he's sent into a murderous rage, ignoring his surroundings and charging at Ren. This proves to be his shortcoming, as he's easily sniped to death by Apollo.
To sum it up, Susanoo is a fierce warrior with an extreme case of mother complex.

The blade itself doesn't spot the same black color as its counterparts. Also, it doesn't seem to have a sentient of its own. It can't copy other gods or godslayer's authority. However, it has several unique abilities of its own. It can release a light from its slash, this light can severe everything on earth, similar to Salvatore Doni's silver light sword. Its destructive power is proven when Susanoo is heavily injured from his own attacks The length of attack is extremely far, as it can reach the sky. It also inherits Yamata no Orochi divinity, allowing its user to access an authority of the deceased beast. When activated, the blade is dyed jet-black and with a flaming eight-headed snake coiling to the blade. Susanoo uses this power to evoke a storm of metal sands, allowing it to hinder the opponent's movement by clinging their body with iron.

Sword fortress: Susanoo can reproduce an event when he rebelled against his sister by evoking an authority over several thousand swords. When evoked the sky will be filled with any kind of sword similar to a dark cloud. Susanoo can simultaneously control all the swords to rain down on his enemy. It has enough speed and power that Ren's [Retribution of Nemesis] godspeed can't catch up with its unrelenting attacks. However, this authority consumes a lot of magical energy and concentration to use. Consequently, if something manages to interrupt Susanoo's concentration, its movement will stop at once.
Incantations:
'I──Susanoo no Mikoto, once caused a war to take everything under heaven, leading a thousand evil gods in the form of small flies. I stabbed a thousand swords in Yamato and besieged……'
'Listen, o thousand of sword! O evil gods in the form of small flies! Answer my command, right now is the time to exert your strength to the limit!'
