“	We value the art of violence more than anything here; those with an unscathed body are not permitted to join us.	”
–Bamboo-hatted Kim

Bamboo-hatted Kim is a member of the Blade Lineage.

Appearance

Bamboo-Hatted Kim is a tall man whose actual features remain hidden behind his clothing, and by his namesake, his signature bamboo hat. He wears the standardized Blade Lineage robes, which remain untied. Underneath the robes he wears a gray buttoned dress suit, white dress shirt, and a tucked red tie. He wears black gloves while carrying a Blade Lineage jikdo which is usually unsheathed, holding it in his right hand. He also wears gray dress pants and black dress shoes.

Personality

Bamboo-Hatted Kim speaks in a rather solemn, verbose tone. Even when facing certain death, he continues to speak calmly, showing no sign of hesitation when in any of his battles. From his battle text and Key Page, he speaks rather cryptically and often sees those without scars or sign of former injury in battle as a sign of cowardice, and does not permit them to join or train them in the Blade Lineage.

Story

Bamboo-hatted Kim and the other members of the Blade Lineage are an optional General Reception able to be invited to the Library by sending 2 Urban Nightmare books. While his reasoning for accepting the Invitation goes unmentioned in Library of Ruina, it is revealed in Limbus Company that the Blade Lineage were fighting against the Kurokumo Clan when they received the Invitation and Bamboo-hatted Kim had hoped to save the Blade Lineage from being defeated by the other Syndicate by escaping to the Library.

Once at the Library, he is defeated and turned into the Book of Bamboo-hatted Kim.

Key Page Story

Bamboo-hatted Kim’s Page

We value the art of violence more than anything here; those with an unscathed body are not permitted to join us. A swordsman who does not have a single blade scar on his skin is doubtlessly too careful when he wields his weapon, and his inane hesitation will be an obstacle. Too irresolute to endure the wounds his own blade would leave, let alone the assault of others… A body free of scars is proof of cowardice. Alas, it would be wise not to expose your wounds outside of those on your face.
