Yumeo Obara

Yumeo is an overweight adult man with a meek face that hides years of inner resentment.↗↗

After becoming an incarnation of Orobog, Yumeo takes on the full appearance and costume of the character. His appearance as a whole is comparable to walking algae. His face is veiled by long, dark greenish-blue hair. His clothes are tattered and badly stained, his ragged trousers dragging along the floor behind him.↗↗

Yumeo initially appears as a timid and servile person. However, this is merely a facade hiding his overwhelming ambition and rage, as revealed when he snaps at Harato Kunieda. Above all else, Yumeo believes in his own talent as an actor, calling himself "better than Kunieda" even as he curses his weight. He persistently pursues his goal in spite of his condition, working his way up the production hierarchy from the bottom. It is only after Sosuke Kitamoto disrespects and abandons him that his dreams appear to be crushed.↗↗

As Orobog, Yumeo's existing rage turns to outright sadism. He takes a degree of satisfaction, even pride, in assaulting the people that abandoned him, loudly announcing his motive to the cast and crew. He especially hates Rohan Kishibe for turning Orobog into a villain, and then allowing the drama to cut him from the production. Orobog is also confident in his power, daring Rohan to see what happens when he is disrespected and gloating that only the electric chair can kill him.↗

When speaking as Orobog, Yumeo's voice sounds as if it were echoing through water, and is frequently interrupted by the sound of gurgling.↗↗

Orobog

Yumeo is able to manifest an incarnation of the character Orobog fueled by sheer fury. In this state, Yumeo is able to harness Orobog's abilities, including the power to severely dehydrate and wither people, objects, and entire lands into near-lifeless husks of themselves. He can dehydrate others even from a considerable distance. In addition, Orobog's bloated body takes significantly less damage from physical attacks.↗

Perhaps the greatest of Orobog's strengths, however, is the source of his power. Being fueled purely by his anger at being abandoned, Orobog's power only increases as his victims disrespect his original story. Actions such as attempting to separate Yumeo's consciousness from Orobog's, fleeing the scene of the battle, or even attempting to electrocute him by any way other than an electric chair only intensify the effects of his dehydration. The only method of truly defeating Orobog is by subjecting him to an electric chair, as that is the only way his story can end.↗↗

Personal Skills

Although Yumeo's job as an assistant director seems to require little skill, he seems proficient in makeup and costume design, having created Orobog's prosthetics and costume for the production on short notice. He also appears to possess some medical knowledge, as Orobog cites disequilibrium and Romberg syndrome as effects of his attacks.↗↗
