After escaping a ritualistic sacrifice, AInu made his way from Hokkaido to Tokyo. With him, he carried the chains that had once bound him to his ‘owners’, who, seeing the sacredness of AInu, had attempted to sacrifice him to the gods for good luck. Also pierced on his nose was a ring that was once used to move him around. When he made it to Tokyo, AInu accumulated wealth and purchased his now iconic Cyberpunk jacket and shades. Over time, however, he realised that the city didn’t offer him the same excitement and comfort as the forest. And so, AInu returned to the forests of northern Japan where he is revered for his wealth of experience and stories.
