Biography
Toru (Japanese: 透龍, Hepburn: Tōru) was a male member of the race Rock Humans (岩人間, Iwa-Ningen) that existed in the world.
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Toru was seemingly a slim human man on the shorter side, being just slightly taller than Yasuho. He has curly hair styled in a very round afro on his head, which gradually changes from a smaller, looser curly afro to a larger, more solid looking elliptical one in later appearances. The afro featured two swirls on either side. He wears a dark vest over a sweatshirt, which has long sleeves patterned with triplets of thick black lines intersecting each other. On the right breast of the vest, there's a symbol for the letter "S" with a sun pattern surrounding it. A similar yet smaller "S" can be located on the crotch area of his pants, although this 'S' was missing in later depictions. On either shoulder of his sweatshirt are two bright teddy bears. His pants have a floral pattern on them, showing what appear to be grape vines and leaves.
Powers and abilities
Despite his appearance, Toru was not a human being but rather a member of the Rock Humans (岩人間, Iwa-Ningen). Rock Humans were creatures that evolved with silicon as the element they are primarily composed of. Silicon-based life appeared at the same time as carbon-based life. Both kinds of organisms evolved at the same time, although silicon-based cells were fewer in number.
As a hospital employee, Toru is inferred to be very knowledgeable when it comes to technological crafting and regenerative medicine, and has an innovative outlook in life that he takes sincere pride in. He once mentioned to Yasuho about the idea of a wireless electromagnetic induction that he came up with, a battery duct that lets phones and other devices charge without the need of using any sort of wires and electrical outlets, as electricity simply bounces off in the sky and in between two devices. He also invented the technologically advanced medicine, Locacaca 6251, alongside his subordinates within the research group of his own organization.
Toru's control over the various members of the Locacaca Organization, mainly the research team, and their exact relationship is never fully shown, but considering Poor Tom's sudden demise due to the pursuit of Toru, it can be inferred that Toru didn't care much for the lives of his comrades, sacrificing them once their usefulness to his own goals runs out.
