Hi! Welcome to another Supplemental Chapter of Koudoutai. In Book 1 (Koudoutai: The New Enemy), I put in the bios and weapons of the 12 Zodiac members (chapter 3 and 6), but why another? Update, as well as I'll be uploading the members individually, as opposed to posting all of the members in one chapter, and that as the story progresses, each of the Zodiac members undergo changes, as well as what's in store for them. And let's not forget a more thorough profile for each of the Zodiac member as well as spoilers for what in store for them in future chapters and fics.
So without further ado, the new updated version of the Zodiac info, from profile to weapons, their first (to last) appearance, and what's in store for them in the future story arc of Koudoutai:

Profile:
Masashi Sudo's past is somewhat shady. While his childhood days was clear and clean, being an obedient child to his parents and kind to his neighbors, it is not clear how and when he developed sadistic tendencies and attitude, or why he became criminally inclined when he reached high school. After graduating college with a degree in criminology, he found work in a police station in Tokyo, and in just a matter of months, he rapidly rose through the police ranks, having solved numerous cases (but not to the level of DDS), and within a year and three months, became a detective and captain of the precinct he's been assigned. Due to his good records, he was soon assigned to DDS as its liaison, working with the DDS on numerous cases. But due to his work, and his association with DDS, he used his image to cover up his other activities, such as killing random people whom he fancies, and then dumps them in a river. At one point he had an accomplice who knew his secrets, and shared his passion for killing off people, and even criminals, just to get various commendations (Sudo made it appeared that his accomplice, named only Kaga, was his informer, hence whenever Sudo solved a high profile case, Kaga gets his share of reward).
But a few months later Kaga grew overconfident, and told Sudo that he wants more than he bargained for, and even threatening to expose his secrets if his demands weren't met. At first Sudo tolerated Kaga, but after a few weeks, Sudo snapped, and killed Kaga through strangulation while inside an antique shop.
Shaken a bit, Sudo frantically placed the corpse beneath a vacant wall, and began cementing the hole to cover up his latest murder. At this point, a mysterious man appeared, along with another man, Suichi Kitaoka, a famed "Super Lawyer", and offered Sudo a way out, by offering him a card deck, that enables him to wear an armor, equipped with weapons and a battle robot. As the mysterious man disappeared Kitaoka then do the talking. Sudo willingly agreed to the terms in becoming a member of an organization. When Kitaoka asked Sudo what his birth sign was, Kitaoka then took Sudo to an unidentified location, and presented to him a battle robot, which was a hybrid of a human and a crab. Kitaoka then gave Sudo the name Kaniza, meaning Cancer.
As Kaniza, Sudo began to indulge himself on a killing spree, and then used his police work as a way of covering up for his murder.
A few months later, the roster for the Zodiac organization was completed, and Kitaoka, who took the name To-Rasu, meaning Taurus, began to have a discussion with the Zodiac members on how to make steps in making a name for themselves in the criminal world, a step that would garner attention that would precede Pluto. Sudo then suggested that they choose DDS as its first target. And once DDS is destroyed or at least tarnish its reputation, they'll be approached by other criminal elements for endorsements and other offers. Soon the Zodiac came to an agreement that DDS will be their first target.
At the start of a new school year, Sudo (dressed as a janitor) secretly placed a bomb inside the main DDS building and left, with the timer set to explode at 8 am, as DDS founder Morihiko Dan always went to the lobby to greet the new students. Coincidentally, Takeru Takaishi, Hikari Yagami, Daisuke Motomiya, Iori Hida, Ken Ichijouji, and Miyako Inoue happened to enroll at DDS, and passed the exams, and became Class C (the old Class C were transferred to other sections). Their partner Digimons were also there, tagging along. Tailmon's keen senses enabled her to detect the bomb, and Wormmon evolved to Stingmon and took the bomb and flew to the air and threw the bomb upward before exploding. Sudo, who was inside a rented van, along with Ohitsujiza (Aries), saw what happened and reported back to the Zodiac HQ.
There the Zodiac discussed what to do next, now that they have a new threat to their plans: the Digimons and their human partners. Sudo then came up with a plan, and the Zodiac members who were present (the others were absent) were receptive of Sudo's plan.
Two nights later, Sudo came to DDS, and saw 10 students were about to leave for home. He then summoned them and lead them to a stock room. There he used his card deck to summon his battle robot, Volcancer, who appeared via a teleportation device, and killed the 10 DDS students. Ohitsujiza then appeared and brought some prosthetic crab claws in which could fit into a human hand. Wearing surgical gloves, Sudo then had the prosthetic claws drenched in the corpses' bloods, and left them in a hallway, and then made a hole at the corner, so that if a person trips, the person will fall down and ended up slipping his/her hands into the claws, and his/her fingerprints will be embedded into the claws, incriminating the person. Then Sudo will send someone to serve as a witness to the crime.
The plan worked, as Hikari fell into Sudo's plans, and ended up getting implicated. Ken and Daisuke happened to witness it and Ken and Wormmon began to investigate the scene while calling Principal Dan. Daisuke and Takeru followed Sudo, who then had Hikari detained at the Tokyo police precinct. V-Mon then broke Hikari out of jail and she and Takeru ran, while Daisuke and V-Mon blocked Sudo and his subordinates, but Principal Dan came and told Sudo that Hikari will be under his custody while investigation is on-going. Sudo secretly sent Volcancer (through brain wave patterns via his card deck) to attack Hikari, and succeeded in severely injuring her. Before passing out, Hikari managed to have Tailmon, who arrived with Taichi (Hikari's elder brother), evolved to Angewomon. But Volcancer surprisingly defeated Angewomon by hurling her towards a gas truck, which exploded, injuring Angewomon, who reverted back to Tailmon. Taichi then took Hikari away to avoid Volcancer, who was hot on their trail. Patamon, whom Takeru sent to find the rest of Class Q, arrived at the scene just to see Volcancer plowing through cars and pedestrians just to get Hikari, who was already losing blood. Through Takeru's urging, Patamon evolved to Angemon, and surprisingly sent Volcancer retreating after causing considerable damage.
A few weeks later, Sudo decided to rid another Chosen Child by sending Daisuke to an abandoned factory, claiming that he was assigned to investigate an illegal slaughterhouse. Daisuke questioned Sudo on why he has to investigate alone, but Sudo insisted on making Daisuke go. Miyako secretly heard the conversation and sent V-Mon to follow Daisuke. Miyako hurried back and informed the rest of Class C about what's happening, but Sudo came and gave Class C a long quiz. After 10 minutes, Miyako deduced that they were being stalled as to not coming to Daisuke's aid. She secretly sent a text message to Koushiro about this. Koushiro received the message and he and Tentamon went to the slaughterhouse, just in time to see another armored person, Shishiza (Leo) about to finish off Daisuke, who was pinned under the metallic debris, and saw V-Mon badly hurt after being double teamed by Shishiza and his battle Robot Animus, who appeared to be a hybrid of a human and a lion. Tentamon evolved to Kabuterimon had used his electricity to chase the attackers away. Daisuke then told Koushiro about his suspicions about Sudo, and that his being here was a set up.
Meanwhile, Sudo went to the hospital to secretly kill Hikari. Dressed as a doctor, he entered Hikari's room, and saw Hikari still unconscious. As he was about to inject a liquefied poison into Hikari's dextrose, Sudo's two police colleagues appeared, along with two guards. Sudo's colleagues then told Sudo that Daisuke was being set up by Sudo himself. Sudo then grabbed the two guards and threw them at the window, and fell to their deaths. Sudo then ran off, with the two policemen hot on his trail. Sudo was cornered and was about to be apprehended, but Sudo summoned Volcancer and disemboweled them. Sudo smirked as he was home safe, but was surprised as Class C, A, and Q were there and saw the whole incident. As Ken explained how they solved the case (it turned out that the stock room where Sudo killed the 10 DDS students, there was a hidden camera, and Wormmon found it, and played it on the A/V room and saw how the murder was done). Needing to stall the students to escape, Sudo challenged Ken to a duel, saying that he will explain should he be defeated. Ken agreed and set the battle stage at the Digimon world. At the Digimon World, Sudo revealed his identity as Kaniza, while Ken changed to his Digimon Emperor guise, and the two were locked in battle. Unknown to Kaniza, Ken redeveloped the Black Spiral rings to act as virus to disable the robot who harmed Hikari. In the course of the battle, the black spiral rings entered Volcancer's body, hay wiring its circuitry and programming. As Kaniza was attempting to regain control of Volcancer, Volcancer violently slashed Kaniza's card deck, rendering it inoperable, and his armor disappeared. Left with no protection, Sudo was about to escape, but was caught by Volcancer's claws and was beheaded, killing him. Daisuke and a still injured V-Mon arrived, and V-Mon evolved to Flamdramon and defeated Volcancer, who exploded after colliding with Flamdramon.
Sudo's body was taken to the morgue, while the investigation on Sudo's activities was now a closed book, after turning up no clues.
Height: 5'8
Weight: 180 lbs.
What's in store: While Sudo remains dead, the Kaniza character will remain out of sight for the duration of Book 2 (Koudoutai: The Zodiac Strikes Back). The Kaniza character will probably appear in Book 3 (title still pending), with a new character assuming the Kaniza identity, wherein the new Kaniza is as an undercover agent working for DDS.
