Drushi

 (ドルーシ, Dorushi) is a character in Ousama Ranking and its anime adaption. He is one of the Big Four of the Bosse Kingdom, known as the "Queen's Shield". He is Queen Hilling's personal guard, and leads her other bodyguards.

Appearance
Drushi is a large, broad-shouldered man with a bald head and thick eyebrows. He has a scar on the left side of his mouth.

Personality
Drushi is an earnest man with a somewhat gruff exterior, but he has repeatedly proved himself to be an incredibly loyal and caring individual.

Though they have a very formal relationship, Drushi deeply respects Queen Hilling and in turn she trusts and relies on him.

Plot
Drushi was the first "King's Spear", or personal attendant/warrior to King Bosse. After Miranjo's first attempted rebellion, Bosse came to believe that Drushi's personality was unsuited to the role, and reassigned him to protect the new Queen Hilling instead.

Initially upset by this, Drushi was given the opportunity to decide whether or not Hilling was worth defending, and if he decided she wasn't Bosse would reconsider his position.

Though he was put off by Hilling's brusque personality at first, Drushi quickly realized that the young queen was just awkward around other people, and actually cared deeply for those around her. When later questioned by Bosse as to his decision, Drushi informed him that Hilling was worth defending, something he believes is true of everyone. Drushi has served as the "Queen's Shield" ever since.

Due to his station as the Queen's Shield Drushi has been absent from most of the events surrounding Bosse, Bojji, and Daida. Likewise he did not have knowledge of the Magic Mirror, and was not involved in most of the Bosse Kingdom's court intrigues.

When Miranjo returned Drushi proved instrumental in defending Hilling, and repeatedly defeated the numerous Underworld hounds sent to kill the young queen. An exhausted Drushi was even able to briefly resist Gigan's attacks, and managed to destroy the gigantes' massive warhammer during a confrontation in the castle courtyard.

Drushi remains unfalteringly loyal to Hilling, even as Miranjo's attacks have sunk the kingdom into chaos.

Superhuman Strength
According to Bosse, Drushi is the "sturdiest" of the Big Four. He is enormously muscular and has repeatedly demonstrated superhuman strength in confrontations. Drushi is so strong he can even fight while wearing especially thick, heavy plate armor that can repel most physical attacks.

Hand-to-Hand Combat
Drushi's physical strength paired with his experience make him a devastating hand-to-hand combatant. Even his signature weapon as the Queen's Shield, a pair of spiked bucklers he wears on his forearms, are designed to assist him in close-quarters combat.
