-dark hair, dark eyes, sharp features -jagged, terrible scar over his eye that his father gave him when he was ten after he failed to catch Smoke, and also has an extremely scarred left eye, meaning he can only see with his right -covered in numerous other scars all over his body -wears dark clothing -tall, lean muscular build, broad shoulders -grew up in the savage palace of the Haze empire. Unlike what you would expect from a normal palace, this one was extremely cruel. People were killed left and right, often right in front of Kuzo. Instead of fighting with words, battles were always fought with swords and whips -as such, Kuzo grew up cold and learned to fight from a young age. The only way for him to prove himself and seize the throne was to hunt and kill Smoke -when he was ten, he set out on his first expedition by ship to find Smoke. He failed by a close margin, with Smoke getting away just minutes after he arrived where they were. When he returned to the palace, his father raked his sword down his face -since then, he went on over seven other expeditions, returning empty handed each time. He faced ridicule and scron from the palace, becoming snappy and bitter -eventually he was thrown out of the empire, and now the only way for him to get back is to capture Smoke and bring them to his father -as an exile, hes not supposed to be in any cities and if he gets caught by gaurds, they'll throw him into cells -extremely lonely -extremely cruel -has no self identity except for finding Smoke -once he actually does find them and meets them, he starts questioning himself -mean, rude, harsh, bitter -has a dry, rough sense of humor, sarcastic and snappy
