Bio
Born in 1889, the Australian Lord Raptor was what one would call "less than friendly" while he was alive. But his murderous life comes in handy later, as it enables him to lead a similarly deadly afterlife. Capturing the attention of Ozomu, one of the Demon Kings of Makai (the Devil World), Lord Raptor is resurrected some twenty years after his death by said Demon King. However, this gift comes at a price, for Raptor must serve Ozomu and rid Makai of Darkstalkers. Before setting out, Raptor gains a couple of things. The first is a newfound love for metal music, which he not only listens to, but also plays. The second is a small blob of a sidekick named Le Malta that at times mimics and cheers for him. But thrashing out tunes must wait until they've fulfilled Ozomu's command.
