Byakuya (ビャクヤ) wanders under the night accompanying his sister. He first appeared as a playable character in the console version of Exe:Late.

Information

Byakuya is mysterious young man who appears with "his sister", Tsukuyomi, during the Hollow Night in search of something or someone she's lost. His only true purpose within the night is to aid his sister in any way he can, which usually involves sinking his claws into unwary victims.

When Chaos meets Byakuya in the story, he notes that the young boy's presence and abilities feel closer to a Void's than an In-Birth's.

Appearance

Byakuya wears a black school uniform with an unbuttoned blazer and loose bolo tie. Based on his appearance, Hyde suspects that Byakuya is only a middle-school student.

Personality

When it comes to Tsukuyomi, Byakuya is very affectionate. He makes sure to go out of his way to ensure that everything is going well for his sister and shows willingness to put everything on the line to ensure that Tsukuyomi's searches for her lost friend bear fruit.

Byakuya's true personality is as different as night is to day when matters don't concern his sister. Byakuya approaches prospective opponents with with no perceivable animosity, only to goad and provoke until his target wants nothing more but to fight him. He seems to draw a great amount of amusement from tormenting others, especially those who would interfere with him and Tsukuyomi.

However he did once tried to reason with Hyde instead of tormenting and fighting his foes. Maybe there is more to him than we think.

Story

Byakuya is escorting and fighting for a woman called Tsukuyomi who he calls his sister. They go the Hollow Night as the "Nest" where they hunt the prey who get caught in the web they've set up. Byakuya is helping,so that Tsukuyomi can fulfill her wish and after the fight with Hilda.

Tsukuyomi says "To stop pretending that they are sibling" but Byakuya demand that he want something in return for what he has done for her. Tsukuyomi allow anything that Byakauya demand. Byakuya rip her shirt and see a scar at her chest. Byakuya loses his cool and demand to know who gave her that scar so he could kill the person. Tsukuyomi only mention a few detail about her.

Even if they are not siblings Byakuya states that Tsukuyomi is a reincarnation of his big sister, although the details are unknown. Byakuya is staying with Tsukuyomi even after her goal are achieve.
