Character Notes: History: Before arriving in Deadman Wonderland, Senji was a police officer using his particular branch of sin (dubbed the Crow Claw) to help take care of criminals, famed for his strength among wrongdoers in the slums. He attempted to help restore order after the great Tokyo earthquake with a few other members. Unfortunately, their efforts were resented by several of the criminals and the group was set up by a dick called Akatsuki. A message was sent to Senji, intending to provoke him. Senji, thinking he could handle it easily, found himself suddenly incapacitated by his superior while the others went to deal with the challenge. When Senji was able to go after them, he found his teammates torn to pieces. Things go pretty downhill from there and he winds up in Deadman Wonderland. During his time in the prison, he gets the initials DSMK tattooed above his right eye as a reminder of his murdered friends.
In Deadman Wonderland, Ganta discovers Senji, now mostly referred to as Crow, being held in the G sector while searching for the 'Red Man'. When Ganta and Shiro find themselves on the verge of destruction at the hands of a big robot thing, Crow destroys it and then immediately issues a challenge to Ganta, though it's quickly apparent that some wires have gotten crossed - Ganta assumed Crow was the Red Man but Crow soon explains otherwise. He launches himself into another attack but gets owned by Shiro because OH GOD TITS. Not long after that, everyone gets tranquillised aaand...
Later, the two are pitted against each other once more. Crow, along with other inmates possessing 'branches of sin', takes part in the 'Carnival Corpse'. During this event, various Deadmen, as these particular inmates are called, are pitted against each other in a fight to either the death or just incapacitation. Ganta just barely wins the match, meaning that Crow is left to the mercy of the Punishment Game - he loses his right eye. However, he holds absolutely no resentment towards Ganta. After this, he seems to act like a mentor towards Ganta, encouraging him, but always reminding him never to be defeated, since Crow himself ended up losing to him. Since the cast is before Scar Chain stuff and Crow doesn't do a whole bunch other than tell Ganta to BEAT THE SHIT OUTTA MINATSUKI and getting free ramen out of him - anyway, I'll leave it there, if you'd like me to expand, I'll be happy to!
Personality: Crow is an independent guy, preferring not to rely on others or get too involved with them, after the heartache he went through as Senji. Resigned to his fate, he enjoys the Carnival Corpse fights where he can let his bloodthirsty side out to play. He also doesn't seem to particularly like others relying on him though with the arrival of Ganta, he takes on a kind of mentoring role, probably enjoying the way the kid looks up to him.
He's a pretty brash kind of guy and isn't afraid to tell anyone exactly what he thinks of them. For all that, he's really easily scandalised for some reason. He freaks the fuck out at anything that's slightly risque, or just a suggestion of something risque. All in all, Crow's really a good guy despite whatever evidence he presented to the contrary when we first met him - it's just that the prison has shaped him into something a little darker than he might have otherwise been.
