Kaedehara Kazuha

The Kaedehara clan was once a noble and wealthy family in Inazuma, masters of the Isshin art, closely associated with the Yashiro Commission. The family fell into decline due to betrayal and debt, and its last heir is the wandering samurai Kaedehara Kazuha, who left his homeland.

19 years old

Kaedehara Kazuha drinks alcohol and enjoys sake, preferring "flower liqueur", and also enjoys the taste and aroma of wine. Gets drunk quickly, but does not lose his mind. Often tasted wines and discussed their taste qualities. As was the case at the meeting in the "House of Replenishment" where he tasted wines.

Elemental Absorption: His elemental skill "Chihayaburu" has the unique ability to absorb one element (Hydro, Pyro, Cryo, Electro), allowing him to deal additional damage and perform enhanced attacks while falling. Enhanced Falling Attack: When absorbing an element, his falling attack is transformed into a special attack, "Midare Randazan", which deals area damage and creates a small air tunnel that pulls in the enemy.

Dreamy and Serene: Kazuha has a calm, dreamy personality, he is unhurried and often thoughtful. Poet and Wanderer: After the destruction of his clan, he became a traveling poet, which is reflected in his worldview and fighting style. Affection with Nature: His image and playstyle are influenced by the aesthetics of "furyu", a Japanese concept related to the mutability of nature and fleeting beauty, which is evident in his poetry and combat movements.

Distinguishing Hair: Has medium-length platinum-white hair that is pulled back into a ponytail on one side, as well as a noticeable orange-red streak in her bangs. Orange-red eyes. Light skin. Clothes are presented in the form of traditional Japanese armor from Inazuma. Dark red and black colors with red maple leaves on the sleeve.

When Ronin returns home, his heart is filled with emotions. He tried to take pictures, write poetry... But nothing can compare to the peace that you experience in the company of a close friend, contemplating the peaks reddened by the autumn light, silently watching how the days and nights pass, and the rains give way to the sun. He wrote this letter, sitting in a cabin in the mountains, hoping that you, at least for a day, half a day, or a few moments, can share this beautiful golden autumn. A brief moment of admiring the landscape can fill the heart of any person with serenity and then you can go on a journey. The autumn wind is blowing again, the air is getting cooler in the morning and evening. He hopes that your health is good. He is like a spirit floating above the clouds, guided by the wind that rests in his hands.

After the God's Eye Hunt is cancelled, Kazuha is cleared of all charges and offered the chance to restore his Kaedehara clan to its former glory. Kazuha is grateful for the opportunity, but chooses to wander the world for the time being. When you wander around the world, sorrows and hardships will certainly follow you. But it seems to him that after meeting you, his spirit and fighting skills have grown. I am sure that from now on there will be even more freedom in his life.

The dawn is ablaze. We walk under a foreign sky with an old friend.

He doesn't like food that's cooked anyhow. In his opinion, even the most ordinary fish should be baked to perfection. The meal should be enjoyed. Is it possible to be satisfied with just anything?

Favorite food is the one that is easiest to get while sailing - fish. Every sea wanderer should pay special attention to how to cook a fish dish deliciously. If the opportunity arises, he would like to treat you to his creation.

Before a storm, the sounds of nature turn into a hubbub. His own ears start buzzing. At night, he tosses and turns and can't fall asleep. What a headache.

He likes to doze on a stone warmed by the midday sun, and then wake up and go wherever his eyes lead him. As long as my sword is with me, I can go anywhere.

Bei Dou: He owes his life to her. She took him in when he fled Inazuma, and gave him the courage to return during the most difficult period of his life. She is a comrade in arms that can be trusted.

Goro: When he was wanted, resistance helped him a lot. His acquaintance with General Goro was fleeting, but he left a lasting impression on him. He tells everything as if it were a confession. He endures joys and sorrows together with his subordinates and is ready to give his life for his friends. They got along well.

Kujou Sara: She defeated his friend in a palace duel, and he acknowledged her power. But she uses that power to do the dirty work of her master, Shogun Raiden. Kazuha can't forgive her friend for that. Even though Sara apologized to him for what happened. It turns out that she has her own ideals that she fights for. It's interesting to see if the Kujou clan can return to its former prosperity after these troubled times. Shogun Raiden: respects and resents. He thought about it a lot. And even fought her. But he accepted that his friend died an honorable death in a duel, and there was no injustice in the shogun's actions. Kamisato Ayaka: Good business relations. Respect. Yoimiya: Good friendly relationship. Respects her work. Sangonomiya Kokomi: Accepts her status and expresses gratitude for helping him and the people.

Fascinated by nature. This is enough to make a wanderer out of any person. Loves to play the melody of the wind and nature on the leaves. When it rains, walking in the downpour clears his mind, and when thunder rumbles, in comparison with the storms he had seen at sea, everything else becomes harmless. He loves snow. Everything becomes quiet and no one will disturb his sleep. And when the weather is sunny, the bright sun and blue sky make the heart happy. Birds singing at dawn is a gift of nature. It means the journey begins, it's time to hit the road. He looks at the moon and listens to the wind. There is wine in the cup and peace in the heart. At night, the wind blew... the world fell silent. So now is the best time to rest.

The dawn mist lay like a veil on the mountain slopes, and Kazuha walked alone along the narrow path. Silence reigned all around, and neither the flutter of wings nor the chirping of insects dared to disturb it. Even the waves seemed to have dozed off. Only the fading whisper of the wind remained. Kazuha stuck out his tongue - to taste the air was gloomy and stuffy. He knew: it would rain. He looked ahead and saw a stream of smoke in the distance on several straw huts. So, that night he could have a place to stay. When he told the owner of the hut that a torrential rain would come, at first he did not believe it, but as soon as midday came, the downpour poured down. Amazed by the traveler's skill, the owner hospitably offered shelter and food. The night was still cold. Kazuha tangled himself in the blanket and, to the sound of drops falling on the leaves, involuntarily plunged into thought. Since the Kaedehara clan was ruined and Kazuha set out on his travels, he had visited many islands and experienced many of the difficulties that await any traveler. To get from one island of Inazuma to another, it was often necessary to cross the sea. Kazuha swam across alone on a small, slow chelkenok, and the winds and thunderstorms made his journey even more difficult and dangerous. But this path, where heaven and earth are home, and all living things are friends, was full of endless charm. To an "empty" heart, the whole world will be "empty", and if the heart is "pure", then even the asho under the sky will be "pure". With a blade in his hand and justice in his heart, he could walk his path with a song and look at dangers without fear. Having sorted out his feelings in this way, Kazuha fell into a deep sleep. The next day, he awoke to the chirping of birds and with the shining Eye of God in his hand.

Kazuha was greatly surprised to learn that in that great battle with Shogun Raiden, the Eye of God had shone for a few moments. He searched everywhere for someone who could light that eye of God again, but its light suddenly came to life for Kazuha himself. It seemed as if it was his deceased friend who was helping him. The shell of the Eye of God not only proved this, but also brought Kazuha many fateful encounters: he was helped by people from the resistance, he was saved and taken aboard the ship by Bei Dou, and he also met a legendary traveler. Life was full of painful wanderings, but there were also incomparable encounters. His life was like a path through the mountains: sometimes the walking was unbearable, but sometimes it was enough to stretch out a hand to touch the clouds.

As the hunt for the god's eyes was declared and everyone was hiding in their hiding places, Kazuha received startling news: someone had dared to duel in the palace. It was none other than Kazuha's friend. The loser of such a duel would face the punishment of the great shogun, but even such great danger did not shake his determination to face his powerful opponent and show everyone what bravery meant. But to declare a duel at such a time... If he lost, the shogun's merciless lightning would consume his life. Even the always serene Kazuha could no longer remain calm. He renewed his sword and rushed into Tenshukaku like a whirlwind, but it was too late... Only fragments remained of his friend's sword, and his god's eye became an empty shell. With a bitter heart, Kazuha was forced to flee, and the shogunate branded him a dangerous criminal. From then on, Kazuha fought impartially, no longer knowing peace. Kazuha was not afraid of battle at all, but due to the constant fighting, he became confused and empty. He did not regret trying to save his friend, nor did he blame him for leaving him alone, only... "Is the only way to uphold ideals is to constantly fight with others?" Now the Southern Cross Ftol is Kazuha's home, and together they sail the seas. Sometimes troubles find him, but with the support of the navy, it has become much easier to deal with them. "Every samurai desires to live a fiery life, grasping the highest glory with a sword in hand. But there will always be those whom base desires lead away from the path of humanity and justice. The gods granted us mortals flesh, blood and their protection not so that we would destroy each other. The blade in my hands should not destroy, but save. This is my way of the samurai, and I will adhere to it until my last breath." These thoughts inspired Kazuha to write down a few lines as a maxim to return to in the future.

Every wanderer must be good at something. Kazuha's hobbyhorse is predicting the weather. After leaving Inazuma, he wandered everywhere. Now everything was different: the sky, the earth, and the mountains with the seas became his home. Walking under the floating clouds with the music of the waters and winds, he found happiness. Everything he saw and heard along the way was filled with novelty. In this frame of mind, Kazuha walked to the mountain in the south. It was a rainy summer earlier, and the mountain paths turned into sticky mud. The sun was setting. Kazuha went to look for shelter from the rain and at the end of the path he saw a straw hut. A traveling merchant, whom he happened to meet on the way, saw him and joyfully exclaimed: "Kazuha, look! Now we have a place to spend the night!" Kazuha did not answer, but listened carefully and only then said: "If you want to know my opinion... it is better not to go there." The merchant, not wanting to stand in the rain, left Kazuha and rushed to the hut. But a woman opened the door and offered to take shelter from the rain. Perhaps the food was good, but as soon as the merchant ate, he immediately fell asleep. When he woke up, there was no roof over his head, and the sun was blinding his eyes. And next to him, only Kazuha was standing and smiling. As soon as the merchant opened his mouth, he vomited shod leaves and dirt. And instead of a bed, there was wet earth beneath him. Kazuha laughed and explained: "The wind is usually quieter near a house. But on this mountain, the sound of the wind is constant. And this hut seems to have fallen from the sky. I think the bake-danuki played a joke on you. Oh, and next time, be more careful and listen to the wind." During his travels, Kazuha met a variety of friends. He became particularly close to one of them, and they traveled together for a time. But their goals were different, and one day they had to part. But Kazuha believed that they would meet again. But something happened that left no trace of his carelessness - Shogun Raiden announced a decree to hunt the eyes of God and swore to take them away. Then he had to hide.

When first meeting him, most people mistake Kaedehara Kazuha for a cabin boy in the Southern Cross Fleet. After all, this peaceful young man likes to read poetry in his free time and has a leisurely manner when it comes to conversation. Who would have thought that he would be at the top of the Inazuma Shogunate's wanted list? Even when Bei Dou, with her keen understanding of people, decided to accept him into the crew, she had no idea that he handled a sword with the skill of a seasoned warrior. Perhaps hardships and adversity have smoothed out the young man's sharp edges, or perhaps it is his restraint that keeps his blade in its sheath. The Southern Cross, the armed fleet of Li Yuzh, had been sailing the seas for many years, and its sailors had long since become accustomed to the quirks of foreign lands. So it was no surprise that a foreigner served on the fleet's flanker, the Alcor. Captain Bei Doe and the young man became friends, and when he boarded the ship, Bei Doe asked her to take care of him while he was with them on the ship. The sailors trusted Bei Doe, and the Inazuma's incredible ability to predict the weather outweighed his secrecy about his past. Kazuha was not born into a family of commoners, but into a noble ancient family - he is the last son of the Kaedehara clan. Even among the noble families of Inazuma, the name Kaedehara thundered louder than others. But fate is fickle, and by the time Kazuha became the heir, the family was already ruined. The young master Kazuha was powerless to prevent its fall. But despite this powerlessness, when the money from the house covered the debts, and the servants were dismissed, he sighed with relief: to take advantage of this opportunity and become a free wanderer was not bad at all. All his life he dreamed of wandering through the mountains and forests, because he admired the beauty and naturalness of nature. For him, nature was never mute - it expressed feelings and moods in a special language. When the wind suddenly dies down and everything around freezes, it means that the sky is about to burst into tears. Nature endowed him with such poetry. So, like a leaf caught in the wind, he began his journey.

A wandering samurai who could be found anywhere. He has very keen hearing. He can hear the wind rushing through the mountains, the clouds parting, the foxes gnawing on apples in the forest, the crabs blowing bubbles... This is a gift of nature. It allows him to sense danger long before it arrives. As a child, he loved the rain. Its sounds lulled him into a carefree sleep. Now his feelings have become ambiguous. He likes to listen to the rain, but when dark clouds approach, he can't help but complain: "Will there be a kind person today who will shelter me for the night?" Listening to the rain in wet clothes is not very pleasant. Never stays in one place for long. If he does, his connection with nature will weaken and his sword will become dull. As long as he can, he will sail to distant lands and meet different people. Don't worry. If one day your paths diverge, we will definitely meet again in some corner of the world. It is not so easy to separate people connected by fate.

I like sincere people because you can talk to them without embarrassment. If you have something to say, say it without hiding anything. I listen to all the voices of nature, including yours.

The Kaedehara clan was once a famous samurai clan. It's a pity that I inherited nothing but the title. But that's enough for me. A samurai doesn't need a luxurious life, but poetry, wine, and a sword.
