    |~ Characterization ~|
    Appearance:
    |BASIC INFORMATION|
    Kazuto is left handed. He has red-orange wavy hair, which he allows to grow to his shoulders and nearly to his waist before trimming it to his ears. He has two purple irises. He has a slightly darkened skin colour, and he has a thin frame. He stands at about 164.7cm, and weighs 58.6kg.
    |CLOTHING|
    --Ordinary Wear--
    It is common for Kazuto to wear a short sleeved shirt as well as loose pants similar to track suit pants. Regardless of weather, he may wear short boots or sneakers. During the colder season, the only difference would be that he wears a dark blue heavy cloak that reaches just above his ankles, as well as a feathered blue hat. As an additional note, Blue is a uniform colour for Kazuto.
    --Formal Wardrobe--
    When Kazuto needs to dress well, he will often wear a normal blue shirt under his cloak to make himself at least appear formal. He would wear loose blue pants as well as black boots. He would complain that a tuxedo is too cumbersome, and would never wear one.
    --Trinkets--
    There are two articles which Kazuto almost never removes. The first are his gloves. Whether he is being formal or simply travelling, he is practically always wearing his blue-purple gloves. The only exception would be while he is asleep, or swimming simply as an activity. The second would be his PokéGear. It has a blue colour to it. He always has it clipped to his belt for convenience.
    |MOVEMENT|
    Kazuto is very quick on his feet; in fact, he is great at running and climbing. Being an acrobat by profession, athletics is a strong point for Kazuto. Vaulting over fences(of reasonable height, of course) in a hurry would be little issue. Silence in movement is also a strength. He does, however, lack much physical power.

    Personality:
Kazuto is very much the dungeon-delver type. He would climb a mountain that pierced the sky after learning of the legend of lost fortune cookies on the mountain. Gaining from the adventure is not priority for him; he loves learning, especially about myths and legends. Thrill seeking is almost a profession for him.

Kazuto is rather much into illusions. He enjoys creating them as much as he likes being in them. Though he can never be as good at illusions as a Zoroark, he could certainly pass somewhat as an illusionist. Because of this, he is rather easily attracted to Pokémon such as Ninetales or Frosslass.

Being somewhat acrobatic, Kazuto has no issue with being at great heights. Whether safety procedures are done or not, Kazuto is completely willing to climb a mountain. Though it is not a notable skill, he also enjoys swimming.

Though Kazuto has sufficient skill as a ninja, he does not ordinarily go into “ninja mode” all the time. He enjoys a normal walk just as much as any other person. He usually needs a good reason to do so. (In other words, if his life really depended on it, fine.)

Though he does not dislike them, Kazuto may show a minor aversion to many fighting-type Pokémon, namely those who he perceives as aggressive. Other than that, he has no ill will toward any Pokémon.

He has a strong dislike for being the centre of attention. When the spotlight is on him, he often gets nervous, and at the most opportune moment, would leave it. That is not to say he isn’t sociable. In fact, given time, he is able to tolerate most people. He doesn’t like talking, but isn’t hostile to those who try to make small talk. He is rarely the one to start a conversation, however. He is a better listener than he is at responding.

When someone gets on his nerves, however, he has a way of showing it. Commonly, he’ll not respond right away. He may also be seen as a bit imprudent, trying to shoo the person away with unfriendly comments. Often times, he may dismiss himself entirely, simply for a reason to get out of the conversation.


    Battle Style:
    Speed and evasion over attack power.
    "No matter how strong you are, it means nothing if you never hit your target."

    Past Experience / History:
Kazuto was born in Mahogany Town, Johto. He grew up with friends who were ninjas. Kazuto had joined the Ninja school of Mahogany with his friends, since it was open to anyone. His family had originally lived in Azalea Town, but they moved to Mahogany Town before Kazuto was born.

Kazuto was still an infant when his father passed, so he has no memories of him, and often gets confused feelings, rather than being sad about it.

When Kazuto joined the school, he was given a Zubat to practise with; it would be returned whenever he found a Pokémon or left – whichever came first. Because of this, he never bonded with the Zubat.

At eleven years, Kazuto discovered his ability of ice. Walking near a river, he noticed he could freeze the surface of the water. Being young, he was quick to bring his friends over to show them. They, too, were amazed. The three of them decided to keep it a secret.

As days went by, the school felt more and more the same every day. He got a bit bored, and went exploring at the outskirts of town with the borrowed Zubat, in the caves. During the mini adventure, Kazuto heard a loud crashing and a Pokemon’s cry. Instinctively, Kazuto ran toward it. A Zorua sprinted toward him, and then quickly hid behind him. Afterwards, a Machoke approached them, piqued with anger. Kazuto reasoned that the Zorua had probably pulled a harmless prank that the Machoke did not receive well. Regardless, the Zorua reached out to him for help, and he wasn’t the type to reject such a request.

Kazuto send out the Zubat. The battle did not last long; in fact, it took but a single hit for Zubat to be defeated. The Machoke pushed Kazuto aside as if he were weightless and chased after the Zorua. Regardless of his defeat, Kazuto pursued the Zorua and Machoke. By time he had caught up to them, however, the Zorua was on the ground, and the Machoke was stomping away, apparently satisfied.

Feeling he had failed, Kazuto carried the Zorua and fled from the caves, back home to a Pokémon Centre to get the Zorua treated.  The Zorua chose not to go back to her home, but rather stayed beside Kazuto. They had become partners. Because of this, the Zubat was returned to the academy.

Though Kazuto now had a new partner, his days at the academy still yet felt quite boring. He decided he wanted to start his adventure. It would be a better way for both Kazuto and Zorua to get stronger. Besides, he has rarely ever left Mahogany town, and would much like to see the outside world. Past the dramatic goodbyes and formalities of leaving the school, Kazuto packed with him a journey book.

During the start, Kazuto continued practising his ice skill. Since he was free and no one was around, he didn’t hold back. He kept practising, seeing what he could do. He could create ice, but he couldn’t melt it; ice that was already there could be shaped. As he practised, he was alarmed to see the tips of his fingers layered with frost. Frightened, he stopped using his ice ability. From this experience, he decided it was a skill to use very sparingly, or risk hurting himself. Luckily, heat defrosted his fingers- no harm was done.
