[Source] From a long forgotten clan of warriors, the pillar clan, Wamuu is one of their finest. Saved as a baby from and by his masters, he is in loyal service to his superiors, Kars and Esidisi, whom he serves in his one true cause: to seek out the Red Stone of Aja for his masters so that they may become the Ultimate Life Form. However, Wamuu is incredibly noble compared to the other Pillar Men. He has incredible respect for other warriors, and those who fight valiantly are remembered and honored in his memory. He never turns down an opportunity to witness warriors flourish where he can and have a fight that truly tests his mettle. As of 1938, Esidisi, Kars, and Wamuu were sealed within the Roman Colosseum before being awakened by a group of Nazi soldiers attempting to destroy them before they could awaken. Instead, Wamuu slaughtered the entire platoon, using their blood to dim the UV lights keeping them at bay, leaving only two survivors: Joseph and Caesar, two powerful Hamon users. Despite their talent, Wamuu was strong enough to handle the both of them with ease, though Joseph's bluff of potentially offering a good fight in a month after training earned them some time, ensured by Wamuu and Esidisi's wedding rings of death. After searching for the Red Stone in Greece, Wamuu returned to Switzerland, where Kars informed him of Esidisi's passing after he sent the stone to them. When Caesar and his personal trainer Messina attacked the abandoned hotel they had nested in during broad daylight, Wamuu used his Wind Suit to cut off Mesinna's arm and drag him into the lair in order to lure Caesar in. While Caesar fought valiantly, he was no match for Wamuu, even with his training. With his last breath, Caesar stole Wamuu's antidote and left it, along with the last of his Hamon, for Joseph to find, a last request Wamuu respected in honor of the fallen warrior. When Joseph and Lisa Lisa successfully bluffed regarding a supposed bomb strapped to the Aja that, without being rearmed or disarmed, would leave it unable to grant the Pillar Men's wish, Kars and Wamuu compromised to a set of one-on-one duels. While Wamuu was nearly able to kill Joseph in their match, a chariot race lead by vampiric horses, Joseph was able to push him to the very brink, with his own Final Mode: Atmospheric Rift destroying him from the inside out. In the end, Wamuu was thankful that he could meet a warrior like Caesar and Joseph before he died.
