Biography
Pantomime was a demon from the other world where he had the natural talent of mimicking the magical abilities of others of his kind. During that time, he came to serve king Wolf Daddy as a minion where he was given the task of travelling to the Human World and to return with his boss's lover Katy. Using his powers, he mimicked the dimension-travelling abilities of Heads Hydra and summoned a Black Curtain portal. However, before he could travel to the human world, he was killed by Braz Blood with the doorway being left open which accidentally brought the young human girl Fuyumi Yanagi into the Demon World. Meanwhile, Braz took the dead Pantomime's body to the scientist Franken Stein to be used as part of his experiments in creating new demons from dead ones. A number of demons were used in this process with Pantomime being labelled as Artificial Demon No.9. Franken Stein was able to resurrect the slain demon who was transformed into his new form where he was given the name of Akimu Papladon (パップラドン・アキム). With no memories of his past, Akim was fixated on acquiring body parts in order to grow stronger in the process. He used the dimension-travelling magic he had acquired from before to escape the laboratory and began preying on demons where he forcibly took body parts that interested him.
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Akim Papradon's form could vary as he stole body parts from others but he was roughly human with short hair and a pale complexion. Fraken Stein during his experiments on Papradon came to refer to him as Artificial Demon No.9.
He came to find a certain beauty in fighting and a powerful force unleashing their full fury. Akim was shown to show scorn those who demonstrated techniques that were slow and ugly.
Powers and abilities
Originally, he had the power of mimicking the magical abilities of other demons. Thus, he could copy the powers of another and achieve a vast variety of abilities.
After becoming Akim Papradon, he had the ability to forcibly take body parts of other demons and gain their powers thus becoming stronger. In reality, his body was actually a phantom form composed of energy that inhabited a physical form. Thus, he could reassemble limbs and reattach his body after parts were severed from him. Due to this, he was able to ignore pain and injuries sustained to his body as these did not truly harm him. In fact, he was able to use his arm even after it was broken in a fight. Akim's core of his new body was from a person with dimensional doorway manipulation allowing him to open a portal through a frame. He typically used rings he worn as the frame through which his portals appeared and could put them within a person in order to brutally kill a target from the inside out. Papradon was also able to use these portals in order to escape destruction from a powerful enemy though his ability to use these doorways was not as good as an expert in their use. Afterwards, he began to gather limbs from other demons with this including a strong furred arm from one and another that had spikes on the shoulder that could spear out to kill an enemy. He could open a mouth across his chest filled with sharp teeth and a tongue that he used to consume a person whole.
