Baylord Yama

"Tell Karaka!! I'll never let him enter my ship unless he brings Deng Deng to me!! If he wants to get in anyway, he'll have to follow the laws around here and beat me in a fight first! I DARE YOU, KARAKA!! I DARE YOU!!"

- Baylord Yama to his Gang

Baylord Yama (베이로드 야마, Bae’ee’rohdeu Yahmah) is a High Ranker and the seventh Slayer of FUG and is widely known as the King of Bayroad.

Madoraco said he is one of the richest FUG Slayer by making money with sports entertainment and secret gambling on the side.

Baylord Yama has two brothers, an older brother and a younger one who serve as his second and third in command

History
Yama used Doom's power to share with the canine people instead of his. Along with that, he had fought his brothers for leadership over the clan after initially tolerating Doom killing off disobedient canine people, and defeated them, but as he was unable to share his power, he was forced to spare Doom and exiled Paul.

At some point, he sent his Three Mad Dogs to climb the Tower.

Personality
Yama is a very prideful man and violent on the best of days being prone to anger and rash decisions and though this is not always the case it is often enough that by reputation alone even high ranked members of FUG fear and only begrudgingly respect him for his strength.

Appearance
Baylord Yama has fair coloured skin, long red hair, and dog-like ears. His teeth are jagged and his yellow eyes have black marks around them. His height is over 2 meter 70 centimetre, taller than even Zahard, with well-build and muscular body.

Deng Deng
Baylord Yama and his fighting dogs are seen sitting in a hot tub. Yama called the intruders arrogant for coming into his territory and says Karaka is out of his mind. Yama who is angry dared Karaka to start a fight with him. After a while, Yama is growing tired of waiting for Deng Deng to arrive. He later received news that the Slayer Candidate arrived on Madoraco's ship with Deng Deng. Yama who's delighted told his men to bring Deng Deng over.

Baylord Yama
Yama who is in a good mood is talking with Gado who is Second-in-Command of the gang. Yama tells Gado to greet the guest and later they all gathered at Yama's throne. Yama later asked where Deng Deng was and Karaka told Yama that they aren't sure if he'll help them, so Karaka is keeping Deng Deng in the ship for the time being. Yama then asks what they want and before Karaka can speak up, Baam demands Yama to promise that he will free Deng Deng. After hearing what Baam said, Yama who is irritated asked if Baam came here to die.

Yama, amused at Baam, asks if all irregulars is a loose cannon like him. Yama then asks what Baam's plan is. After hearing that Baam wants to participate in the Canine Tooth Festival and win against him, Yama and his gang laughed at his challenge. Yama then agrees to the challenge and accepts Baam's conditions, but if Yama wins, he'll take Deng Deng, not help Baam with saving Ha Jinsung and then claims he'll take the thorn and kill Baam.

Later, the Elder's Envoy greets with Yama and start a conversation with him. The Envoy then asks if their members can participate in the Festival also and if they win the bet, Yama would give what they want.

Heart
Yama who was sleeping is being awakened by Baam. Yama wakes up only halfway since he is a very deep sleeper. He then attacks Baam but Karaka intervenes to save Baam. After when Baam and Karaka attacked together on Yama, he wakes up completely and is confused with what's happening.

Tower of God: Part 3 - Baylord Doom
Yama is then told by Baam and Karaka that Gado had betrayed him and Doom had awakened from his slumber and when Baam asked Yama to come out and battle Doom, Yama told them it was not that simple and reveals to Baam and Karaka the truth of his war with Doom and that Doom was the real source of the canine people's power. No longer able to spare Doom and determined to ensure his older brother does not wreak havoc using the entire canine people, Yama resolved to kill Doom this time even though it will leave the canine people extinct but agreed to give Karaka and Baam a chance to challenge Doom, although he grimly warned them that if Doom regains the fang, he will kill him. When confronted by Jordan, Yama proceeded to task him with having Baam and Karaka monitored.

Confronting the Elders Envoy, Yama easily destroyed the box given by the Elders and proceeded to effortlessly shrug off a powerful attack from the Envoy and stopped his attempts to flee with the power of his Partial Transformation Level One before threatening he will send him to hell.

Tower of God: Part 3 - King of the Dogs
Although briefly stopped when the Elders Envoy threatens to destroy the Cage, Jordan destroys the bomb and Yama soon kills the elder envoy and proceeds to confront both his brothers and the Elder that entered the Cage, proclaiming that anyone who wants to take anything from him will have to fight him for it.

Stating that he will finally kill both his brothers and asked the Elder to not interfere until then, he easily overpowers Paul and Doom, as they are both afraid of Yama in their true form.

Powers and Abilities
Baylord Yama is an extremely powerful High Ranker, as he was capable of defeating both of his brothers, despite Doom being one of the Top 200 High Rankers in his prime. He has expressed confidence that he could easily take any number of enemies Paul unleashed upon him including Paul himself and noted that he could have killed Doom had it not been for the fact he could not transfer his power to the canine species and stated that with Doom now released, he will kill him if they fight.

Immense Durability and Shinsu Resistance: Yama is phenomenally durable and has tremendous Shinsu Resistance, which extended to complete immunity to people who are afraid of him. The improved Baam's Shinwonryu could only partially wake him and the combined efforts of Baam and Karaka were needed to fully wake him up, which still did no damage on him. He also took a powerful attack from the envoy of the Elders with absolutely no damage, even mocking him. Even strong Rankers like Doom and Paul were unable to damage him due to being afraid of him. Yama was also able to endure the beating he was forced to put on himself by Yasratcha and retain enough strength to use Complete Transformation and was even able to take savage attacks from Yasratcha and still continue fighting. As noted by by both himself and Paul, Yama also appears to have a mysterious resistance to the shinsu of those who fear him, rendering him immune to their attacks.

Partial Transformation: Yama was born with this mysterious power that allows him to transform his body parts and add canine characteristics to them, even using an unknown partial transformation, Yama was able to dodge quickly an arrow attack from the Elder Khel Hellam. He can further progress this transformation. It is not known how many transformations he can undergo, but it is known that he can use up to Level Seven. Complete Transformation : The ultimate evolution of canine transformation. Yama is the only canine person who can use it. He was able to use this to defeat his brothers so decisively that they would be left in fear just remembering his transformation. After he activated this transformation and transformed his left arm, he was able to push back Khel Hellam, who then stated that Yama's strength was comparable to the first generation of Slayers. Complete Transformation has stages, as Yama says the real complete transformation is when he transforms every part of his body.
 * Stage One Partial Transformation - Rival: Yama clenches his fist, transform it in a giant furry red paw with claws and grows in big proportions to the point of dwarfs a giant building, this attack was powerful enough that the Elder High Priest had difficulty in escaping and surviving, even with Yama not wanting to kill him.
 * Unnamed Stage Seven Partial Transformation: Yama used this transformation to attack Khel Hellam in close range distance but it can be countered back by Khel with a huge arrow attack.
 * Right Arm - Level Six Partial Transformation - Lonely Red Arm: Probably an evolution of his Level One Partial Transformation - Rival, Yama increases the size of his right arm and turning It a canine paw with red furry and claw to a large extent, being able to stretch his right arm to dozens of meters, the more and more his arm stretches, the bigger it gets, the power of this partial transformation is strong enough to suppress Khel Hellam after he was fatally wounded by the Ancient Spear.
 * Left Arm - Full Transformation: Baylord Yama swing his full transformed left arm to attack Khel Hellam. The offensive power resulted from that one swing is very powerful and massive that even Evankhell had to block the wave of the attack with her two hands. The defensive power of the left arm can also block Massacre Light Storm, an ability of Khel to strike multiple shinsu arrows.
 * Total Transformation of Left Arm: Potentially a stronger form of his Left Arm - Full Transformation, he was about to use this against Yasratcha before the latter use the canine people as a shield. The power of this transformation remains unknown.
 * Right Arm - Full Transformation: Yama swung his fully transformed right arm to attack Yasratcha after Evankhell blinded him. However, Yasratcha was able to easily speed past Yama's attack and heavily wound him.

Notes and Trivia

 * Unlike other canines, Yama sleeps like he is hibernating. He is also not used to be living in a pack and it is said that he is like a Wild Beast.


 * Yama is a human but more like an animal in the wild. He is not someone who is raised by people but raised up freely out in the field.


 * Yama has an individualistic personality. He doesn't want to be bothered by anything and just wants to sleep.


 * His name is likely a reference to the Hindu god of death Yama

The changed background story
this was the history of Yama that SIU made before he changed it in the main story (so it's not canon anymore)

Baylord Yama was one of the Pitbulls that battled in Bayroad and it is said that he was the strongest Mad Dog of all time.

In the pit, he was a God of Death (사신, 死神, sahshin) who drove opponents to their doom and people came to call him "Yama, the Lord of the Dead" (야마, 죽은자들의 왕, Yahmah, Joog’eunjahdeul’eui Wahng, or “King of the Dead”) out of respect for him. Later, he killed his own keeper and successfully became the only Mad Dog to ever escape from Bayroad and climb the Tower. Although no exact details are known regarding this procedure, it is rumoured that Imort (이모르트, Ee'mohreuteu, or “Immorte” etc.), another Slayer of FUG, was involved.

After becoming a Ranker, Yama returned to Bayroad with FUG’s power at his back and killed the previous owner of the pit. Hence, he simultaneously became the King of the Mad Dogs and a Slayer of FUG. Because of this, it has been frequently hypothesized that the domination of Bayroad was the final condition he had to fulfil to become a Slayer.

It is rumoured that he is currently using the enormous revenue made in Bayroad as a weapon to build mysterious pleasure and entertainment facilities (adult entertainment involving alcohol, drugs, and sex) everywhere throughout the Tower and therefore expanding his influence and power. However, he has never shown his face since becoming a Slayer.
