Kashiro is a massive individual, both in height and build, thick knots of muscle betraying any hint of softness. His dark red scales cover his face and torso, while a black discoloration under his right eye runs sideways along his face, nearly touching his ear. Surrounding the black pools of his reptilian eyes is a deep yellow spotted by a mixture of orange and red. The Barabel's smile has an assortment of shattered and missing teeth from previous injuries that only amplify its chilling quality.
In Kashiro’s youth, he witnessed the fall of his Clan among the Barabel; though hailing from a smaller Clan they punched above their weight and were swiftly crushed by another more dominant group. While many of his Clan saw this as utter defeat, Kashiro saw the respect the surviving members of his family earned within his society. This ingrained in him an unfailing determination to push his limits and even in defeat feel pride.
Unfortunately, this also means Kashiro doesn’t know when to back down and avoid dangerous situations. He is seen as foolhardy and brash among his peers.
Without a specific goal in life, Kashiro often seems to be running a gauntlet not even he understands. He floats from place to place and has only recently begun spending regular time in and around Brotherhood space. So far he has not found a home but has begun searching for opportunities to make himself known within Brotherhood space. Due to his relative obscurity, however, he is seen as an unknown asset which could prove valuable or detrimental. He continues pushing through the gauntlet one way or another unsure of where he will end up.
Fully embracing his people's belief in Prestige, Kashiro will pursue any venture he believes will gain him reputation, glory or hear his name repeated either by others of his kind or those whose opinions he feels matter (often those who have defeated him). It doesn’t matter to him whether insignificant or known throughout the Galaxy; so long as his pursuits are recognized he will doggedly pursue success.
Despite having been tricked more than once into unsavory actions or friendships with those without his best interest in mind, Kashiro believes his success can and will make up for any mistakes he has made and has no intention of ever apologizing for those mistakes anyway.
Even among the Barabel Kashiro is seen as unsuited for political machinations, being absurdly blunt and rarely capable of holding his tongue in any situation. This has led to a lifetime of challenges for his lack of judgment in when to keep quiet. He stands by his word and except for extreme circumstances will never back down or change his opinion once it has been formed.
Though his intent is rarely to be rude, it is simply in his nature, to be honest with those around him. He is rarely impressed by softly spoken words and will often mistake diplomacy for manipulation.
Kashiro’s mentality in battle is simple enough: if his opponent isn’t strong enough or skilled enough to kill him then they won’t ever defeat him. Throughout his life, he has seen time and again that he remains standing when others would fall. He relies on his physical and mental endurance to outlast his opposition, fighting a battle of attrition with the intent to be the last one standing. This can be exploited by opponents if he makes the mistake of underestimating them and giving them an opening he can't defend against.
Relying regularly on his ability to withstand punishment, Kashiro will combine his natural fortitude with a mixture of his accelerated Healing and when necessary use of Barrier to protect himself as he finds ways to close distance, enduring any damage taken to get his hands on his opponent. As a practitioner of Broken Gate and often the physically stronger in most of his engagements Kashiro looks for an opening to overwhelm his opponent by any means necessary.
This balancing act can lead to Kashiro pushing himself beyond his limitations and falling short of his aim when facing opponents who exploit his relatively short offensive range.
