Description:
Tunde is a native child of the Iroko Village, nephew of Kadokechi and resident of the Jakuta District. Tunde is passionate, intelligent, principled, loyal, determined, hot-headed and brutish. He is unmatched in his martial arts skills and physical prowess amongst his peers and potentially all but can be emotionally manipulated to his defeat. Tunde is a member of the noble Balogun clan originating from the People of Iron. His grandfather, once a great Iron hero of the Second Stone War, defected to the Iroko Village at the beginning of the Third Stone War after falling in love with a Jakuta warrior girl from the Iroko and was thus disgraced. The Iron warrior married the Jakuta girl and raised his two boys, Ajamu (Tunde’s father) and Kadokechi in the Iroko Village, however the peoples of the Iroko Woodlands do not fully trust the Balogun. Many Iroko Woodlanders fell to the Balogun sword. Like his grandfather, Tunde dons the Forbidden Mask of Ogoun. He is orphaned at the end of the last Stone War, as Tunde’s father, Ajamu, sacrifices himself for the sake of the Iroko. Tunde has a crush on Folake Iyalode.
