Fictional character biography
Masashi Sudou was a detective, using his job to effectly cover up his illegal activities, disposing of any witnesses to his acts. He had a partner in the older Tomoyuki Kaga who owned the Antique and Collection shop until the older man's demand for a bigger cut in the profit made Masashi kill the man, plastering him into the wall of his own shop seconds before Shiro Kanzaki appeared and offered him a Card Deck, explaining the terms of accepting it. Masashi took it gladly and made his Contract with the Mirror Monster Volcancer, becoming Kamen Rider Scissors and playing a part in the disappearances as he feeds his victims to Volcancer. He and Knight confronted each other once prior to the series, neither aware of the other's identity.

Reiko was investigating Antique and Collection due her finding a link between it and some of the missing people, only to be attacked by Masashi hiding in the shadows. When the passerby she'd talked to heard the commotion and screamed for help, Masashi ran out through the back and came back at the front pretending to be a passing officer. Reiko was taken to the hospital where she would spend the next couple of days, attempting to unravel the mystery while sending Shinji to investivate the ship for her. But when Shinji ran across Scissors in the Mirror World while fighting Volcancer, Ren came to his aid after making the conclusion that Kaga's the Rider. But against Ren's wishes, Shinji attempted to make nice with Scissors, leaving his calling card in the shop.

Deciding to take advantage of the boy's gulliability, Masashi easily tricked Shinji into giving his name, Knight's human identity and Yui Kanzaki's address. With that, Masashi had Volcancer place Ren gets into "accident" while he personally attempted to kill Shinji himself from Mirror World. When that failed, Masashi then kidnaped Yui to use her relation to Shiro for his benefit. Ren was able to corner him and rescue Yui, revealing that he now the truth behind Kaga. Masashi was forced to fall back when Shinji arrived, only to be contacted by Reiko, who realized that he was the killer after learning from other detectives that the attack on her wasn't reported to the police. The two detectives pursued Masashi from the hospital and cornered him, only for them to end up being dragged into Mirror World by Volcancer to be devoured as Shinji arrived on the scene. After revealing his intent to kill off everyone who now know the truth behind Kaga's murder, Shinji was about to fight Masashi when Ren took his place in battling Scissors with Shinji watching. In the course of the battle of using each others' Final Vent on the other, Scissor's Vent Deck cracked, thus breaking his Contract with Volcancer as it immediately grabbed and pinned him against its chest, devouring its former master in an ironic death by betrayal before Volcancer itself was destroyed by Ryuki.
