Kazan Yamaoka, the tormented soul known as The Oni in Dead by Daylight, wasn't always a monster.
Obsessed with restoring his family's samurai honor, he embarked on a brutal quest to purge imposters from Japan.
However, his violent methods and disregard for tradition led to him being ostracized and ultimately cursed as "Oni-Yamaoka," the rageful samurai.
Now, twisted by his rage and fueled by the Entity's power, The Oni stalks Dead by Daylight's realm. He hunts Survivors, his fury growing with each injured player.
When unleashed, his Oni Dash becomes a terrifying weapon, allowing him to charge with devastating force, crushing any Survivor in his path.
His descent from honorable warrior to vengeful demon makes The Oni a chilling and complex character in Dead by Daylight.
