If the creature's saving throw is successful, the creature is immune to Kiryu's Menacing Aura for the next 24 hours.

Evasion of The Dragon. When Kiryu is targeted by an area effect that lets him make a Dexterity or Constitution saving throw to take only half damage, such as fireball, he instead takes no damage if he succeeds on the saving throw, and only half damage if he fails the save.

Dragon's Wrath. When Kiryu's hit points fall below half, his damage dies increases by an extra die (i.e. 1d4 = 2d4), when his hit points fall below 25%, his damage dies increases by another die (i.e. 2d4 = 3d4). If Kiryu's hit points fall to 0, he can instead come back with 1 Hitpoint and 5d10 temporary hitpoints, Kiryu's damage dies increases by another die (i.e. 3d4 = 4d4), Kiryu also gains resistance to Slashing and Piercing while in this state. Kiryu can't use this feature again until a new dawn.

"Who said that I was a saint?" Kiryu will start doing non-lethal damage when a creature is close to 0 hit points. if a creature tries to outright kill another creature, Kiryu will stop the creature from doing so even by force.

A picture of Kiryu from Yakuza: The Song of Life (6) with him wearing his iconic outfit. More info on him here.

Kiryu has a muscular build, seemingly as a result of constant street fights and various other activities in his daily routine rather than any concentrated effort to achieve this physique. He has more upper body mass than lower, which can most likely be attributed to his frequent use of heavy weapons. Kiryu's hair is short and put into a messily slicked back style, being slightly longer at the crown and featuring his sideburns, and he has facial hair grown into a pure goatee.
