Biography

Arukenimon

Digimon Adventure 02

Arukenimon was one of the major villains in the latter half of the series. She usually appeared in the form of a woman with odd red and purple clothing and large shades concealing her eyes. When in battle, she shifted to her Digimon form. It is unknown whether her ability to shift between Digimon form and human form is a side effect of her being half Digimon-half human, or because of her species' natural abilities.

Arukenimon took over where Ken shed his Digimon Kaiser persona following the destruction of Kimeramon. She initially appeared in her human form, confusing the children as to why an adult is able to enter the Digital World. When fighting the Chosen Children, she used her Spirit Needle to turn Dark Towers into Digimon. In one event in the Giga House, she used a flute to control the resident insect Digimon until the flute's powers were negated. After her flute's powers failed, she decided to take drastic measures and shifted to her Digimon form. She fought the children and proved to be a formidable foe, but was defeated by Paildramon. Fortunately Mummymon, her partner, came to her rescue.

Following the failure at the Giga House, she worked alongside Mummymon. Although Mummymon was in love with her, the relationship was not particularly romantic, as Arukenimon was arrogant and rejected any advances by Mummymon. Still, after the event at the Giga House, it was rare to see them apart.

To get back at the children, Arukenimon created BlackWarGreymon using one hundred Dark Towers, but he didn't obey her due to the complexities of his creation. Following Mummymon's suggestion, Arukenimon decided to try and destroy the Holy Stones to throw off the balance of the Digital World. Mummymon and her artificial Knightmon's attacks on the first Stone caused BlackWarGreymon to attack the Stone and destroy it himself. Satisfied, Arukenimon set back and watched as BlackWarGreymon destroyed the rest of the stones, occasionally attacking the Chosen Children to keep them from disrupting BlackWarGreymon's assaults. The plan ultimately failed, however, as the Chosen Children released Azulongmon from his prison during the fight to protect the last Holy Stone, and he restored all the stones with seeds of light.

Following this, Arukenimon and Mummymon turned to Yukio Oikawa, their master, and he instructed Arukenimon to open the Digital Gates in the entire world. During Christmas day, the Japanese Chosen Children traveled around the world and helped close the gates, Arukenimon and Mummymon drove around Tokyo in a truck and kidnapped twenty children. The following day, they kidnapped Ken as well, so that Oikawa could scan his Dark Seed and pass it on to the children. After this, Oikawa, Arukenimon and Mummymon ran off to hide in a vacation house in the mountains, but BlackWarGreymon came from the Digital World to destroy them. As BlackWarGreymon asked Arukenimon and Mummymon where they came from, Oikawa revealed that he created Arukenimon and Mummymon from a combination of his own DNA and data, making them both half Digimon, half human. While the revelation clearly shocked and troubled Arukenimon and Mummymon, Arukenimon preferred not to discuss it and focus her efforts on tracking the seeded children and protecting Oikawa as they hid back in his run-down apartment in Tokyo.

In the end, Arukenimon was tortured and killed by MaloMyotismon in the world of dreams. Apparently she was horrified of her master after his appearance, which he used as an excuse to test his newfound power on her.

Overview

Powers and abilities

Her special ability is to transform into the form of a beautiful woman so she can draw close to her victims. In her human form, she can use her hair-strands in her 'Spirit Needle' spell on Control Spires to create artificial Digimon that obey her command as long as they are of the same level or below it. In Digimon Adventure 02, Arukenimon can also control any insect Digimon by playing a special tune on a flute she possesses.
