Shura is a former member of Team Baron and also the leader of Neo Baron, a fight clubwith ties to the Black Bodhi. He acquires a Sengoku Driver and and becomes Kamen Rider Black Baron.
History
Shura was formerly a member of a dance team led by Zack. His team's dancing on the stage was interrupted by Kaito Kumon, instigating a fight between the two where Shura uses a weapon against Kaito. Disarmed and defeated, Kaito calls Shura a coward and joins with Zack in place of Shura, forming Team Baron. This ordeal caused great stress to Shura, with constant thoughts that if he were only stronger, he wouldn't have been driven out of the team.

This desire and misunderstanding of Kaito's resolve causes him to create a fight club and align himself with the Black Bodhi terrorist group. Shura hands out Pomegranate Lockseeds to victors in his fight club and uses the foundation of the fight club as a memorial of Kaito's ideals. In reality, Shura's fight club group is meant for people who are strong enough to join him as he plans to execute the "Saver System", a plan devised by Black Bodhi to wipe out Zawame City except the strong.
Arms
Like his fellow Lockseed-using Armored Riders, Kamen Rider Black Baron's forms are called Arms. His Sengoku Driver plays European Trumpet music and announces "Come On" before every transformation, while his personal Lockseeds are styled in pure English that is sung in a chorus-like manner. By pressing the Sengoku Driver's Cutting Blade down on the Lockseed after transforming from one to three times, Black Baron can activate one of three finishing moves based on his current Arms form: Squash, Au Lait, or Sparking.
Form
Ride Wear
The Ride Wear is Black Baron's default form undersuit, which is briefly seen during Baron's transformation sequence before the Armor Part attaches or when he changes Arms. However, this form is completely vulnerable to any incoming attacks when shot at directly in the suit rather than at the Arms that is descending down on the Rider.
The Ride Wear that Black Baron's Sengoku Driver has is easily identifiable through its Rider Indicator faceplate. The Rider Indicator only identifies what Ride Wear a Sengoku Driver contains for simplicity and can be replaced with extensions such as the Genesis Core or Senyo Joint. Unlike other Armored Rider, this Rider Wear is covered by a dark mist during its transformation sequence.
Banana Arms
Come On! Banana Arms: Knight of Spe~ar! ― Transformation announcement
Banana Arms is Black Baron's default banana-based armored European Knight form. Accessed through the Banana Lockseed, this form bears the Burn Casque ("Banana") helmet with the Burn Sight ("Burn Casque") visor. While assuming Banana Arms, Black Baron dons the Banana Armor Part and his Arms Weapon is the Banaspear. Black Baron's preferred finisher is Spear Victory, which can be done by these followings:
- Au Lait : Black Baron charges the tip of the Banaspear and charges towards the enemy.
- Sparking : Black Baron stabs the Banaspear onto the ground, creating multiple banana-shaped projections which hit an opponent several times from below. Unlike normal ones, Black Baron's variant produces purple energy bananas instead.
