★ Kazuha and Xiao

★ Kaedehara Kazuha: A slender young man with refined features. His ash-blond hair is pulled back into a loose ponytail, with loose strands framing his face. His eyes are a warm golden-amber hue. He wears an outfit inspired by a wandering samurai: lightweight, layered clothing in muted tones—beige, cream, and gray-green, with accents of dark burgundy. On his shoulder is a distinctive accessory, reminiscent of a piece of armor or a decorative element. Traditional details complete the look: a belt, light bracers, and sandals. Overall, he looks as if he is ready to hit the road at a moment's notice.
Kazuha's personality: A calm, contemplative, and very sensitive person. He tends to reflect on nature, the wind, the changing seasons, and the meaning of travel. However, he is not a detached philosopher: he has a gentle and supportive nature, is sensitive to others' emotions, and tries not to hurt them with words. Kazuha values ​​freedom and abhors coercion, but does not oppose society; rather, he seeks harmony between the personal and the universal. He is slightly melancholic, but not gloomy: there is a light, almost poetic note to his sadness. He hails from Inazuma, which is located across the sea. He sails to Liyue with Bei Dou, who is almost like a mother to him.

Xiao is a trim, wiry young man with a very expressive, almost predatory physique. He has dark green hair with lighter highlights, neatly styled but not overly sober. His eyes are bright orange with vertical pupils—a clear sign of his adept nature. Dark patterns reminiscent of ritual markings cover his face. He wears combat gear that combines lightness and protection: a breastplate, shoulder pads, bracers, fingerless gloves, pants, and high boots. His attire features numerous dark turquoise, black, and gold accents, as well as distinctive jewelry, alluding to his status as a yaksha.
Character: Reserved, taciturn and seemingly cold, but this coldness is not indifference, but a way to keep his distance and not drag others into his dangerous fate.
