YOB: c793 B.C.
Weapon: Japanese Katana
Status: Dead (Kane, 1650)
His first death was in 743 BC and since then he has crossed paths with many Immortals. Nakano studied Zen Buddhism under Nichiren the monk in the 1200's AD and became one of the ancient Japanese wise men known as "Yamabushis" who taught their way to select few. He has trained many mortals and Immortals over the centuries, including one "Juan Ramirez" who learned from Nakano his metallurgy skills. Nakano was also a great sorceror and he mastered the mystical power of illusion. Some of his more ambitious students, such as Kane, have desired this power and tried to kill Nakano. Nakano's last student was Connor MacLeod, who expanded his spiritual education and became a better warrior with the help of Nakano.
