"The river used to be a nice, peaceful place to spend a day fishin'… until the Fishmen and their leader Kuro showed up! Now those blasted fishfolk have taken over the River, and they don't seem to like us Fishermen."
— Pete Noggle

Pisces kuroii,[2] colloquially known as Kuro is a heavily mutated Fishman who used to terrorize a River in Greenguard. The passage of time and growing prowess of adventurers forced her out of the river and to invest in EbilCorp, becoming its Chief Fish Marketing Officer.

History[]

Background[]

The extreme pollution from the factories of CEO Totengeld on the River in recent years has affected the Fishmen that reside in it, but one Fishman was affected the most, causing the growth of tentacles and a thicker plating. This Fishman was so heavily mutated it became its own species, dubbed "Pisces kuroii", or "Kuro".

Kuro became leader of the River Fishmen and as self-entitled "soldiers of the sea", protect the River and its inhabitants from all land creatures, especially humans, with dozens of fishermen disappearing every year. Zardmen are the exception and are to go to their territory and into the sacred waters of the Fishmen.[3] Despite their zealous protection of the river life, it is said they are unknowingly scaring away the fish.[4]

River[]

Pete Noggle, one of the fishermen who makes a living off fishing on the River, bothered by the recent attacks of Fishmen led by Kuro, asks the Hero to deal with her and her minions. The Hero chops off one of Kuro's tentacles to scare off the rest of the Fishmen in the hopes it will scramble them.[5]



During Grenwog, the rare egg hunter Cadbury asks the Hero to get eggs from the different fishes of Lore and warns that only females have eggs. Kuro is among the fishes asked to get an egg from.[6]

EbilCorp Takeover[]



Kuro, alongside a group of fellow monsters who came to call themselves L.E.R.B. (League of EaRly Game Bosses), an investment group composed of herself, Big Jack Sprat, General Porkon and Vasalkar the Red Dragon, invested in EbilCorp stocks and became its board of "Die-Wreck-Tors"[7], looking to expand their evil influence. Kuro became the Chief Fish Marketing Officer inside the EbilCorp HQ.

Disappointed with the results of Chairman Platinum, the CEO of EbilCorp, LERB, during Thankstaking 2022 looked to replace him with themselves at the helm. Platinum tried to pay them back with EbilCorp tech but they used that tech against him, still adamant on the hostile takeover.

The Hero, after receiving a text, is called to EbilCorp HQ and hired as a freelancer by Chairman Platinum to help him keep his position as CEO of the company.

The Hero fights the traitorous investors, starting with Kuro,[8] but not before luring all of her Ebil Fishmen together in large groups[9] and getting getting rid of them all at once.[10]

With all four members of LERB put down, Chairman Platinum hires them to work for him after hearing Vasalkar's plea, she reveals the four of them wanted to be feared again as they once were, and planned to use EbilCorp to that end. Now working for Platinum and indebted to him, Kuro and the rest of LERB are promised to reappear in the future, deadlier than ever due to taking the EbilCorp Villain Training Regimen (Copyright).[11]
