Hiro

When he was still alive, Hiro was a samurai hired by a not-so approved emperor during a bygone era of turmoil on Sakura Isle. His job was to protect his master from multiple assasination attempts, though he personally thought said master would be better off dead...

To help the commonfolk, he performed espionage under the guise of a kabuki performer. After he performed for the figures in power, he would sneak into their quarters and sabotage their plans for oppression. He would also perform for the commoners to boost their morale.

Of course, Hiro's double life wouldn't last very long. He was eventually caught and executed for treason. His lingering spirit was consumed with rage and swore revenge on the land.

In present day Sakura, his spirit wanders the roads on pitch black nights (or often on the brightest moonlit nights) with his spear/sword in hand. Hearing his kabuki howl in the distance serves as a warning to stay out of his way, as it is said any evildoer that attempts to attack him will be swiftly cut down!
