Blaze, known in Japanese version as Honōmaru, is an assassin from The Light Brigade. He first appeared when called upon Frost (alongside his partner T-Bone) after Frost defeated Syrus Truesdale and Tyranno Hassleberry; Frost intended to use them to drag their unconscious bodies to Kaiba Land to lure Jaden (then Duel him), but Sarina, unimpressed with the close-call nature of Frost's victory, sealed him away in a mirror. Intimidated by Sarina, Blaze and T-Bone left the lair to confront their target: Jaden Yuki. After meting Jaden, Bastion Misawa and Atticus Rhodes, Blaze revealed to Jaden that he and T-Bone had themselves once applied for Duel Academy but failed their first entrance exam. He was caught and sealed in a mirror by Sarina to make T-Bone duel Jaden, but he was freed alongside, T-Bone, Frost, and Thunder after Jaden Yuki and Aster Phoenix defeated her.
Linework
The "Honō" portion of his name in the Japanese version is derived from the word "honō" (炎), meaning "fire" or "blaze."
Blaze's signature card (and also the only one of his deck that was shown) is "Thestalos the Firestorm Monarch".
