Osman / Cannon-Dancer (Arcade) キャノンダンサー
Osman is set in the near future in a world governed by a single ruling entity known as the "Federation" or "Federal Government", an overbearing capitalist government who oppresses its people in the name of "freedom". The game stars Kirin, a top class agent in a mercenary unit known as "Teki", whose members train and offer their skills as "weapons" for hire.
Kirin is hired by Federal attorney general Jack Layzon to rid and save one of his cities from a terrorist-leaning cult named "Slaver", who worships a "God without Shape". Kirin infiltrates the city in the midst of the night and makes his way across until he reaches the cult's main temple. Once inside, however, Layzon suddenly appears with a huge police force and, using all the disturbance caused by Kirin as a legal excuse, has the cultists arrested. Having no further use for Kirin, Layzon betrays him via the police force suddenly attacking Kirin without any warning and leaves him to die in a scorching desert by way of Kirin being chained to a large rock formation.
Kirin, however, manages to survive by using his inner strength to break free from his chained imprisonment and starts moving with a single goal in mind: getting revenge against Layzon. As he travels toward the Federal Capital in Prague, he has to face not only the government forces, but also the other three members of the Teki who want him dead for personal reasons. Kirin also attracts the attention of the goddess Slaver, who shows special interest in him and his quest for revenge for her own mysterious reasons.
