This character is from Alfuldisch et al. Monsters of the Orient. 5E Original Supplement Series: DM Guild, 2017.
The Ashura Samurai seems to be a pale human with ebony armour. It has almost invisible moth wings, which allow it limited flight. Admirers of Samurai, these beings can mimic the fighting styles and mannerisms of this class. In fact, they are often taken for actual samurai.
Summoned from Jigoku through blood magic, it must stay on the Prime Material Plane until it is killed. On its death, its dark essence taints those around it dealing damage. It can be summoned again and again, each time retaining its memories. It can only be killed permanently in Jigoku.
