Kishiko Yamasaki

Ultimate Doppelgänger""Whoever the hell I am now... I'm still here.""

- — Kishiko Yamasaki

Before the Killing Game
Born to a loving family of two fishermen, Kishiko was a rambunctious child, and quickly became friends with his neighbor, Haru Narumi. The two were nearly inseparable, but as time went on, they drifted apart more. They still talked, of course, about a lot of things. School, Haru's pirate adventures, food they liked, anything.

As they grew up, Kishiko gained a crush on the girl next door, Primrose Roth, and the two started dating months after. They quickly began a life together, Kishiko carrying on the family business by fishing, and Prim following her dreams and writing poetry and short stories.

One day, Haru came to their door bearing a warning, something was coming near them, her crew had spotted something akin to a shooting star and it was hurtling towards their hometown of Port Ophelia. As she said this, the 'star' crashed through the wall, ruining the walls of their home.

Kishiko tried to protect Prim, and Haru tried to protect them both, but the 'star' was not an interstellar body of rock, it was a piece of technology, overloaded with magic energy. As Kishiko tried to get towards it, it pushed everyone back, latching onto Kishiko's back as a shockwave expelled from it, pushing Haru outside, and pushing Prim into the wall. Kishiko was in the middle of it, and after one shockwave came another, and another... until there was nothing left of the home.

Haru awakened hours later, and inspected the ruins of the home with her crew. They found Prim first, but they never found Kishiko's body. It seemed to have been destroyed by the magic blasts... Eventually, Haru and her crew left, burying Prim and Kishiko in a nearby cemetary.

. . . Until Kishiko woke up in the ruins of his home, in a new body formed from the device's magic. He looked near identical to Haru, horns and all. He was alone, and angry, and struck in grief... he picked up Prim's necklace, her journal, and her hairpins and left his home.

Their vision was clouded in all forms of emotion, and he picked up the term 'doppelganger' and the alter ego Maelstrom. They just wanted revenge, or answers, or anything. Just something from the Pirate Queen.
