The main color of his clothes are black, but the metal is silver and there are hints of red on his clothes. He always carries a sword or two with him wherever he goes. Kazuro's arms are protected by a pair of bladed bracers, made from the same steel of his kingdom.
Tattoos, Piercings, Marks, Scars, and other details on skin: He has many distinguished scars not just by battle. He has lashmarks on his back from taking a whip from Ral in place of a pregnant woman. He has a scar where he was stabbed in the heart while protecting Navi. His left cheek bears a self-inflicted scar that symbolizes all the loved ones he's lost over his lifetime. He has a few curse marks on him as well. His original curse from Siclides, the curse Ral once put on him to seal his powers to make him human when he was enslaved, and the curse Marrer put on him to make sure he never would show Navi his love again. He also has a torture device implanted on him which resembles a lip ring attached to the bottom of his lip. The chain attached to the ring runs down the inside of kazuro's mouth and out his other end, attached to his groin. The chain has a power of whenever Kazuro feels guilt, the chain tightens, clamping Kazuro's mouth shut, and Kazuro wouldn't be able to move his mouth as long as he feels that guilt.

Problems/Flaws: Kazuro has suffered a lot of pain due to his long life, and now the pain has been becoming too great for him to stand that he can barely keep his darkness at bay anymore. Though, he always keeps his hope of maybe finding the light once again and restoring his honor and power he once had, he is finally coming to terms that he may never rise to the level he had once accomplished, and he may just become a wanderer, alone so that he wouldn't have to let others see his pain. He still loves everyone he cares for, but he feels that ne is no longer strong enough to retain his darkness.
Weapons
Kazuro is a master of swords, carrying two on his back at all times, but able to summon others from defeated enemies whose swords he has collected over his lifetime.
Sword of Kazuro Itsumo (Equipped) This sword has no more purpose than a regular blade of thickened steel, made of the metal of his kingdom, the power comes only if Kazuro dies and someone new inherits kazuro's sword. The sword glows with runes that tell kazuro's entire history, and the wielder can have Kazuro's powers when wielding the sword. This sword has since been destroyed, so Kazuro forged a new sword out of a single pure diamond. The same ability was given to this new sword, and the sword has been given a new name... Lightbringer.
Siclides Blade (Equipped) This sword is made of hardened electricity and is Kazuro's origional sword from his enslavement to Siclides. This sword also has a curse where the sword can go through any armor or weapon which isn't warded by magic.
Blades of Legion (Summoned) These pair of twin blades weigh 1000 lbs each, and came from a corrupted version of Kazuro himself that he defeated. Legion was once a demon who had the souls of the thousands he has slain during his lifetime, until Kazuro put a stop to his killings, and took Legion's swords. The screams of the condemned souls still shout when he swings the blades. The difference is this time, the screams aren't screams of terror, but battlecry shouts for the victor of the one whom had defeated their opressor.
Apocalypse Blade: Death (Summoned) A sword Kazuro's brother willed to him after his death. One of four apocalypse blades, Death has the souls of ten thousand angels at Kazuro's beck and call. If one soul were to be added to the collection by one hit of this sword, the soul is trapped in the sword and tormented by the angels for eternity. The largest of the blades, this sword can also weigh heavy on Kazuro's own soul, and is a last resort for Kazuro to use.
Redemption (Transformation) This is Kazuro's ultimate weapon. When Kazuro is in his light form, this sword is the upgrade of the Sword of Kazuro Itsumo, showing Kazuro's power as a light that shines in darkness, and Redemption being Kazuro's ultimate goal.
Current place of residence: Heaven for the Damned
Current Relationship status: Divorced
Relationship History: He had a few loved ones, all tragic. The first left him at the altar, the second betrayed him, the third abused him, and the last one had given away her ability to love him to bring his soul back from the clutches of Odd. He's had several small flings which all ended in drama which also hurt him deeply each time.
Family: He is unsure of what his family is except for his ties he's had with people. Hikari and Devin are his blood children, many are adopted. He has his son Zinn, daughter Hikari, nephew Sky, brother Lucious, brother Tenshi, best friend Ral, good friend Navi.
Personality: Kazuro is one with a broken heart, but he continues to fight for what he believes in. He still loves and cares for everyone, but he has lost hope in his own destiny and still is unsure of where he is going, and if he will become a hero in the end. He is full of kindness, sadness and regret, emotions which are the most clearly expressed in his eyes, though he tries to hide his pain everywhere else.
History (this is going to take a while, so I've shortened it, but let me know if I've missed any important details): Kazuro was once human when it all began. He was a samurai for the shogan, but his next assignment turned out to be his last when he was ordered to kill some monks. This didn't sit well with the gods, so they turned him into a three headed sheep that eats rotten caviar and farts fire. Desperate to get out of his condition, he made a deal with Siclides, selling his sword and soul to him in exchange for becoming a hellspawn assassin for him. This pleased Siclides, but to make Kazuro a perfect weapon, he wanted to harden his heart and make him kill his entire family. Kazuro fought with all his might to resist it, but he was tortured to the point that he had to submit. After losing his family on earth, he turned his blade against Siclides and slew him, taking over his kingdom, and made it his own: Heaven for the damned, a haven for souls who wish to seek redemption, wherelse they would find none. The first member was Ramiel, a fallen angel who guided Kazuro into becoming the king of the place and started to guide him to his destiny, unfortunately, he lost his life and was never to be seen again. Zinn was also among the first to join and so was Draco. Zinn became a prince and Draco became the head of the guards. He also took in Hikari who became his first child to actually be adopted. Many battles were fought as Kazuro's life was constantly saught since he didn't belong to either the light or the darkness. During his battles, that's where he found who would become his brother, Lucious, who followed Kazuro into battle, and the twain became inseperable brothers and started an empire together. At the time, Kazuro met with a few other kings and they became the Four Winds alliance, each of the kings fell, but Kazuro remained the last to survive. He also made alliances with Ral'Tack, the lord of the shadowlands. Things were going well until he had met his first lover, Kyte. Kyte was an angel and he won Kazuro's heart through her soft touch and smooth words. He used to enjoy dancing with her, and there were many times that she and he would dance and train in battle as they did. However, family drama began to happen and Kyte left Kazuro at the altar. Overtaken with grief, Kazuro stabbed himself in the heart, but that wasn't the end of his story. Miraculously, his daughter brought him back to life and became her blood child through blood transfusion and Kazuro was happy once again. Trouble with the gods was no stranger to Kazuro as there was some stranger that began to invade his home. It was a corrupted version of himself called Legion. Legion and he fought many times together, and as a sacrifice to save Kazuro, Kyte took the blade for Kazuro and it gave Kazuro determination to defeat Legion. However, Legion was only the beginning of his battles. Zinn had told Kazuro about a place called the Void, and soon afterwards, Dremora followed. Dremora was from the Void as well and was out to kill Kazuro. He fought Dremora a few times, but Shamen'tal, the god of the void had appeared and captured Dremora. Family drama happened again, and Kazuro was enslaved by Ral'Tack to save his life from being killed by his own daughter. Ral'Tack was a friend of Kazuro's and came to him a few times before this occurred. However, being enslaved didn't sit well with Kazuro and there were many times of trying to escape, which all failed, and he was punished for them. Lianna at the time was a guard that was taken alongside Kazuro to make sure he was safe. She was pregnant at the time and had disobeyed Ral which made him have to punish her, but Kazuro took it instead because she was part of his kingdom and he didn't want a pregnant woman to take the lash. However, later on she betrayed Kazuro and Ral had to end her life. Kazuro was enslaved for a long while when he was finally rescued, though tragically. His own brother had lost his mind and sold his soul to gain the power enough to defeat Ral and free his brother. Kazuro was happy to return home, but he didn't realize the consequences of his brother's actions. His brother then grew insane with the curse that he agreed to, and it made Lucious go after his brother. In self defence, Kazuro had to fight him and it ended with his brother being beheadded. Kazuro then began to feel regret for his actions, but it was out of self defence, and he was left with no other option at the time. Things go from bad to worse as he began to fall in love once again, this time it was with a Dragon called Bella. To him, she was kind and intelligent, but she had a knife in her hand so to speak. She took control of Kazuro and told him that everyone he loved were traitors and couldn't be trusted. It was not until a long while that he realised what she was doing to him, and he then moved to end their marriage. However, the dragon was very smart and she told him that if he did leave her, that she would kill herself and their unborn child. Kazuro didn't want to see what may become his only birth child to die, so he stayed with her, but only until after the child was born, and then he left, but his kingdom was empty by the time he returned. To make matters worse, Kazuro had to fight Shamen'tal in the void as well as Legion. He then ran into Dremora who told him about this fire that would seemingly bring hope to the void, but it was only deceptive, because it would lead Kazuro into awakening his worst enemy, Flamma. After a time in the void, he found someone was waiting for him back in his kingdom and he was reunited with his son Zinn, but there was a new problem. Flamma was freed, and she and kazuro fought many times, once even Flamma won and Kazuro had to escape his own dungeon, fighting off lava and rock golems as well as fire sprites and elementals to reclaim his kingdom once again. He defeated Flamma and kept her at bay, often visiting the dark manor many times to see his friend Ral, and to help him out as well. During those times, Ral had changed Kazuro from a hellspawn to a dark angel due to the nature of Kazuro's soul. However, something happened and Kazuro found himself in Ral's dungeon, locked in chains which he couldn't escape from, but it was in those chains that he did find love once again, this time, it was true. In his capture, he fell in love with Navi, a long time pet of Ral's who had fallen in love with him as he was being taken care of. They had spent much time together and Kazuro had regained some of his former strength to even challenge Ral, and he fought Ral for Navi's freedom, proposing to her in mid battle. She didn't say yes right away, but when she finally did, he was happy. They soon married, but there were troubles that happened between the two. It hurt Kazuro extremely. It then came time for Kazuro to fight Odd, the god of darkness, and how Odd found him, he easily defeated Kazuro, seperating his soul into pieces for bargain. Kazuro's loved ones restored the pieces of his soul at a great price. He tried to return to Navi, but he found Navi uncapable of loving him anymore, and it drove Kazuro into grief. He left her and went into a state of deep grief over losing someone he had loved so dearly. Ral had since then been taking care of the heartbroken Kazuro, trying to bring him back to himself. But, Kazuro still tried to return to Navi, only to find it too late, and he was out of the picture except for being a friend. Driven to grief, Kazuro had shut himself in the damned, and to make sure he didn't hurt anyone, Kazuro was shut away in Ral'Tack's dungeon for a long time. Kazuro then heard about some family issues and he escaped Ral's dungeon to investigate. He found his brother in his home, and he then saw a child of his, and by looking into her eyes, he saw that it was the child of his brother's and Navi's. It drove Kazuro mad and he moved to try to kill his brother again, but he couldn't do it due to the regret and the fact that his brother had a child, so he cut off his brother's arm instead. In return, Lucious had seperated Kazuro's light from his darkness, seperating him into Kazuro and Yamizu. However, the escape was found out by Ral and Kazuro was locked away once more, scheduled for torment. Yamizu began to run around the world, mass slaughtering and convincing his brother's daughter to join him. Meanwhile, Ral had gone completely insane and Kazuro escaped the dungeon once again to fight Ral alongside of those he cared about to keep them safe. During the battle, Kazuro was reuinted with his darkness once more and he began to lose his mind once again, so to keep everyone safe, Kazuro has been kept in Ral'Tack's dungeon for a long while until he was re-released into his home. His brother saught his life yet again, and Kazuro was forced to flee until his brother's light form fought agains his dark form, killing each other as kazuro watched the killing blow between the two halves of whom he came to know as his brother. Pieces fell apart as one by one, kazuro's kingdom left him, leaving him alone in the damned. Tired of everything that went on, he went into a stasis, and when he came out, he was a transcendent, devoting his life to Ral'Tack and Jinra. His grief would try to get a hold of Kazuro once more, and Ral had decided enough was enough, and he sent Kazuro to hell to reassure him life is actually pleasant, and if he is to be a hero, he needs to accept that fact. After escaping hell, a new enemy would begin to arise so he is currently fighting this rival constantly. After defeating that rival, Kazuro had suddenly appeared in the realm where he had met Vegetra, and ten years spanned during their training together. After the ten years of training, Ral'Tack grabbed Kazuro, after hearing his inward torments, and he locked Kazuro away in a cave for ten more years. During his captivity, he had surrendered his kingdom to Ral'Tack, and he made the former kingdom into a stronghold of the shadowlands, where Kazuro is claimed as head guard there, which made Kazuro content. There is no rest for our wearied hero as he tries to keep existance from ending.
