Duko

Duko is one of the main characters of The Vampiress and a Werewolf of the Werewolf territory. As a werewolf, his powers reach its highest point when the full moon shines. Under a full moon, his power rivals vampires, the werewolf's natural enemy and his speed exceeds theirs.

Personality
Duko tends to be cunning and sly as well as seemingly unaware of his own attractiveness but knows when to use his charms and handsome appearance when necessary to do so.

His exterior often shows off his over confident and predatory factors being that he has the tough guy facade. This is shown through his often yelling and competitive spirit when it comes to Hiro and/or any of the other characters. He also gets himself into a lot of fights and is seen as almost a bully figure in the beginning of the game.

We are shown however that much of what he does has good intentions deep down. He acts almost as a tsundere, however, when people point it out and tries to pretend as if he really didn't mean anything good by it.

Being Duko's love interest, Tsubaki often was seen as family to Duko as well. Tsubaki seemed to be the only one in his eyes that actually tried to understand him and put up with all of his flaws. While at first he thought Tsubaki only cared about him because of his body, he soon found that the woman truly did care about him. While Duko still loved Yuki, Tsubaki opened his heart up to others and helped him to realize that Yuki wasn't all he had and that he really did have a family now.

Magic and Abilities
Lycanthropy: The ability to transform into a wolf-like creature, at his will. When transformed, he gains the traits of werewolves, most obvious being ability to change into a wolf-like creature with the natural characteristics inherent to both wolves and humans, including senses, stamina, etc. In addition werewolves in The Vampiress are often attributed speed far beyond those of vampires and they also have them even in their untransformed form. His condition grants him superhuman powers such as: Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: He is an excellent fighter, although he has had no formal training. He also has some expertise in dealing with occult and supernatural forces.
 * Immense Speed: As a werewolf, the monster known for their speed, when a full moon shines brightly, his abilities are heightened to the point where his speed exceeds even Tsubaki in her super-vampire state that it forced her into complete defense. While werewolves in general are stated to have their power wax and wane with the lunar cycle, it is unknown if all werewolves receive this much of an increase. Regardless, Duko is still exceptionally fast, even when the moon is not full, able to create several after-image and land dozens of blows in a single pass. And even while in human form, he has enough mobility to be able to sneak up on most people.
 * Enhanced Strength: Duko has demonstrated to have strength far beyond those of humans and many other creatures in the series, almost as strong as Tsubaki. He can knock out several monsters way bigger than him with a single blow even in his human form. His strength also extends into the muscles of his legs, allowing him to leap, from a crouch, several feet into the air.
 * Immense Agility: Duko's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are far beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. When combined with his incredible speed, Duko can deal out damage by making rapid jumps and aerial movements that can take out a multitude of Shinso vampires before they can react.
 * Immense Reflexes: Duko's reflexes are similarly enhanced and are roughly twice as fast as those of the vampires. Using his speed and his reflexes he can dodge and block any attack from Tsubaki.
 * Enhanced Stamina: The Werewolf's musculature produces less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of an ordinary human, granting him superhuman levels of stamina. He can exert himself at peak capacity for several hours before fatigue begins to impair him. Duko was able to land many attacks on the Shinso vampires in tandem by doing continuous high-speed maneuvers without tiring at all.
 * Enhanced Durability: The tissues of his body are considerably harder and more resistant to physical injury than those of an ordinary human. Ginei is capable of withstanding great impact forces, falls from great heights, and exposure to temperature without dying.
 * Enhanced Senses: Duko has superhumanly the acute senses of sight, smell, and hearing similar to those of an actual wolf. He can see objects or people in total darkness as any other wolf as well.
 * Claws and Fangs: The Werewolf's claws and teeth are extremely sharp and tough, enabling him to rend through a variety of substances including fabric, wood, cinder block, and even some metals.
 * Regenerative Healing Factor: As a werewolf, he is capable of regenerating damaged with much greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human.
 * Lunacy: As is already mentioned above, his powers increases and decreases with the moon phases. When there is full moon he is at his peak capacity.
 * Transformation: He can transform isolated parts of his body even during the day, such as his ears and tail.

Flash Speed: Attacks several opponents at high speeds faster than a wind.

Quotes

 * "Maybe we really are crazy... but I'm sorry, I can't lose my friends."

Trivia

 * In the English dub of the anime, it is shown he has a habit of making wolf and animal related puns about himself and others.
 * It is said that it was Soren who gave Duko a final push to go working there during his route, as he turns very shy when he has to deal with his feelings for Tsubaki; this could mean he and Soren have become good friends
