Spoiler:

A demi-god warrior arrayed in white armor. Samurai-esque in appearance, Yamato stands at a good seven feet tall. This Tainted Persona is also armed with a nodachi with a blunted tip. The blade itself is at a good six and a half feet in length. Its scarlet sheath is also nestled on Yamato's back.

Persona Background: "Yamato-Takeru no Mikoto was one of the greatest warriors of Japanese lore. He was said to be half human, half god. Around six feet tall with a stern face, he prided himself on his strength. He was ferocious and killed his older brother in a trivial argument. His father, Emperor Keiko feared his son and sent him to war at the western front, and then on an expedition to the east after his successful return. On his way east, he met his aunt, who gave him the divine sword Ame no Murakumo no Tsurugi. It is said that when he was attacked by fire at Sagami no Kuni, he cut the grass and was able to escape alive. From this, the Ame no Murakumo also became known as the Kusanagi no Tsurugi (grass-cutter sword). He eventually died of a curse from a god of Mt. Ibuki, but he turned into a great white bird and flew away."
