Kazai Suizahn is a male Water Angel from Heaven, a member of the great Suizahn Clan of Warriors and Kieri Suizahn's twin brother. Kazai is noted to be more assertive than Kieri and received the bulk of their parent's attention and praise for his traditional Warrior skills.[1] Kieri's search for her brother is what sets Rhea and her friends on their journey across Fragaria.

Appearance[]

As an Angel, Kazai resembles an extremely pale Human with pointed ears, white hair and a slightly frailer build. His hair is dyed blue on side bangs, as with all male Angels. He has blue eyes, and his hair stands into a two-pronged cowlick at the back. His wings are white and feathered, and he can reveal or conceal them at will. Like all Water Angels, he bears a tattoo of the Water symbol on his left arm.

Kazai's Angel uniform consists of a long blue tabard that reaches to his ankles with the water element symbol displayed on it in light blue. The rest of the uniform is a dark blue, including the pants. His shirt is long sleeved with a loose turtle-neck collar, and is entirely white except for a light blue wave pattern around the wrists. His pants also feature the same wave pattern around his ankles. He wears light blue slippers on his feet. He wears a light blue belt with a diagonal sash, which carries his weapon as well as his Sun and Star Emblems.

His teeth appear sharper than other Angels', with visible canines. This could be a side effect of his curse, the same way he sometimes sprouts a wolf's tail or ears when losing control of his emotions.

Personality[]

Kazai is described as having a very different personality from his twin sister,[2] and was always praised for being the stronger of the two.[3] In the first few times he appeared in a speaking role, he has demonstrated a more assertive and direct personality whilst being protective and comforting to Kieri.[4][5] It's especially noticeable when they reunited and he didn't take long to hug his long-lost sister. Kieri has claimed to have a deep familial bond and to have always looked up to him, although she has admitted to feeling overshadowed.[1][4]

However, Kazai was soon shown to be exceptionally single-minded on a variety of subjects. He accepts what he was taught at face value and refuses to question it, hearing only what he wants to hear and refusing to compromise his world-views or accept something that challenges what he feels is right or wrong. He believes that Medians are sinful creatures, berating Kieri for wanting to learn about them, and he would never think a fellow Angel could have bad intentions, especially one of higher rank. Most of all, he despises Demons and sees them as monsters, to the point he is baffled to see Medians treating them as people. Even after Buwaro shows repeated kindness to him, Kazai still thinks it is a ruse or a trick.

When things do not go his way, Kazai does not hesitate to resort to violence and threats, flaunting his status and rank as a Suizahn Clan Warrior. Kieri stated that brute force was the only thing Kazai understood, and that while he loved his sister, he ultimately outranked her. He tends to act with baseless instinct, willing to attack anyone he considers an enemy, with or without any provocation. He is often quick to assume things are wrong and never seems to admit when he is in the wrong; he would rather assume Kieri is being manipulated by a Demon, than believe said Demon is actually nice. When she repeatedly came to Buwaro's aid and side, Kazai remained mostly confused and angry, unable to understand why she would rather follow a Demon over her own family.

Kazai takes a great amount of pride in his warrior lineage, taking little interest in academic pursuits that he didn't see a combat application for.[6] He never learned Lingo himself, as he hated to study, which is one of the many reasons Kieri worries how he is doing since they became separated.[7] This tends to lead him to over-exaggerate whenever certain details are brought up, as he mistakenly calls animals different names, never remembers the names of those he fought and has no understanding on mental conditions.

Kazai shows signs of being a self-righteous narcissist, heavily boasting about his various exploits (such as his "battle" with Broxis the Wolf) by trying to sound like he accomplished a great deal in his endeavors even if they do not reflect reality. Even when he struggles with doing something, he will claim it is no issue for "the great Kazai Suizahn" once he gets it; inversely, he tends to put down Kieri's own achievements, assuming that her own lack of a Star Emblem meant she could only lose their fight. While he assures the two of them are a team, he seems unable to listen to her, and will claim he knows better than her; only going back on his words when Kieri is about to leave him, as he does not want to be left alone.

Kazai was started to have a preference for men, which was first confirmed by Chu[8] before his relationship with Sanjulo was revealed during the Spring Flower Festival. As relationships between Angels of different elements are frowned upon in Heaven, he is aware of it being a "forbidden" relationship; ironically, he refuses to believe Kieri could be in love with a Demon.

Powers and Abilities[]

Overall Abilities: Kazai is very gifted for his age, having acquired two of the three Angel Emblems by the time he reached the age of 15 while showing considerate skill as a Warrior. His parents, who are both Seraphs, have always considered him to be very talented and it would have some effect when in a real fight. He is able to overpower Kieri in a fight and out-speed her in flight; however, when against a Demon like Tsavo, he can be overwhelmed even when fighting as a team. When faced against a Guardian of Medius like Broxis the Wolf, he was unable to even touch him without being sent flying into the sky. Being cursed by Broxis greatly diminished his fighting ability, notably by making him unable to use his weapon.

Water Magic: As a Water Angel, Kazai mainly specializes in this school of magic.

  • Freeze: Kazai is able to freeze any water source that either he conjures up through magic or from the natural environment; he first demonstrates this by freezing Tsavo's snout for a short period long enough for him to be freed from his grasp.
  • Icicle Wall: By extending one arm, Kazai can cause a barrage of icicles to erupt from the ground to form a wall that could block off any kind of ground-level escape. While under the effects of the Star Emblem, he was able to produce two walls with both arms in this manner.

Holy Magic: The very natural magical ability for all Angels, Holy Magic uses light to damage their enemies (especially on Demons) and even heal. Kazai has shown to use it on a few occasions and seems to have some skill in using it.

  • Holy Blast: Kazai can unleash a blast of Holy Magic with his hands. With the Moon Emblem its potency is increased further compared to his sister's to where he can overpower her Magic Shield and her own Holy Blast, however it is not strong enough to counteract a powerful dark spell from a Berserk Demon.
  • Shooting Stars: By drawing a magic circle with the palm of his hand, Kazai can unleash a stream of stars that have the potential of causing major damage to those hit by them. While intended for large targets, it's possible for someone small (like Kieri after becoming a snow rabbit) to avoid being hit (to some degree) by falling between where they're coming from.

Curse Form - Wolf: At some point in time, Kazai was cursed by Broxis the Wolf, which can cause him to change into a white wolf. However unlike Kieri's transformation, it seems Kazai's isn't instantaneous as parts of his wolf form would show while maintaining his Angel appearance. He would grow fangs at first, then a tail and then his hands would become paws. When fully transformed he resembles a white wolf with blue eyes, while still wearing the sash and belt around his chest. It appears that this form is triggered whenever he gets stressed or overemotional, as whenever he gets angry or starts to panic his curse form shows.

  • Enhanced Smell: In wolf form, Kazai has a better sense of smell that can compensate for his low visibility. He is however reluctant to use it.

Polearm Weapon Specialist: Kazai wields a halberd as his main weapon. He is noted to be a very skilled fighter, surpassing Kieri in combat training and defending himself against Demons.

Multilingual: Kazai is capable of speaking in both Lingo and Angelic.

  • Basic Lingo: Unlike Kieri, who studied Lingo in Heaven, Kazai has a hard time grasping the words; he often mispronounces things or uses the wrong terms for creatures or things he doesn't know about. While traveling with Rhea's group, he picked up enough of it to understand and form simple sentences, even though his grammar is hesitant.

Equipment[]

Holy Water Halberd: Kazai possesses a halberd, designed to resemble the element symbol of Water. The blade is shaped like the top of the symbol while the pole is narrow and colored blue. It is enchanted with Holy magic and deals more damage to Demons.

Sun Emblem: By wearing this pendant, wings will appear on his back and he can fly if needed.[9]

  • Flight: The Angel Wings that come from wearing the pendant are large enough where he can fly and be able to carry one person. The wings, while used on the ground, can propel him forward to quickly reach his targets.

Former[]

Star Emblem: By wearing this pendant, his magic power increased while also improving his concentration.[10] Since his fight with Kieri, his pendent was taken by her when he was being rescued.

  • Enhanced Concentration: While active, a halo appeared over his head which allowed him to perform high-level spells.

Relationships[]

Kieri Suizahn[]

Kazai is Kieri's twin brother and they have been together since they were born; she hatched just before he did. Although they have been close since childhood, Kieri has always felt like she was living in her brother's shadow as he excelled in combat while she fell short. He believes that as twins, they have to stick together no matter what, which to him means that she must stick to him.

While Kazai loves his sister, he is dismissive of her own achievements and interests, such as her academic studies or relations with Medians; similarly, he tends to sweep her concerns under the rug and act like everything is fine as long as they're together. He tries to lift her up in his own way, which is to tell her that as Warriors of the Suizahn Clan, they are above everyone else; however, he does not understand why she does not see things the same way. He believes he knows better and that his assumptions are right, and that he has to guide her back on the "right" path even if he has to use violence.

After they reunited in St. Curtis, a rift between them started to grow, as Kazai realized she's changed as a person in ways he did not agree with, such as having a relationship with a Demon. After the loss of Sanjulo, he tried to keep her at his side at any cost, claiming the two of them were family, ironically ignoring the many times he's left her behind. Following their fight outside St. Curtis, their dynamic seems to have shifted, and he now submits to her authority as to not be left alone.

Arla Suizahn[]

Kazai's mother was shown to be proud of Kazai's achievements, and suggested that he tutors Kieri in combat training when her own grades were falling. Kazai is aware of Kieri's abuse at their mother's hands, while he received mostly praise from her.

Khalav Suizahn[]

Kazai dutifully obeyed his father ever since he was a child. He does not hesitate to use his title as patriarch of the Water Clan to give himself power over other Angels, claiming that as his son, he outranked them. Little else is known of their relationship, other than Khalav losing his arm to a Fire Demon seemed to worsen Kazai's hatred of them.

Zahariah Sanjulo[]

Kazai has known Sanjulo since they were Archangels in training. The two of them seemed to already be close; after the three of them fell to Medius and Kieri got separated from them, he and Sanjulo headed together to find her, though they argued over where to go. They eventually grew fond of each other, Kazai admitting to Kieri that he was in love with Sanjulo, even though a relationship between Angels of opposite elements is frowned upon in Heaven.

After Sanjulo's death, Kazai grew vengeful, decided to give Azurai the punishment he deserved. He also felt a lot of grief, not knowing what to do, yet denied feeling anything when Kieri asked him.

Buwaro Elexion[]

Upon learning of Kieri's relationship with a Demon, Kazai's immediate reaction was anger. He refused to believe Buwaro was a kind Demon and assumed Kieri was being manipulated. After the events of the invasion, when they all stayed in the St. Curtis temple, Kazai tried to attack Buwaro but only stopped at Kieri's insistence, still without trusting him. Their relationship remained very tense, Kazai thinking Buwaro's good will to be an act, but going along due to Kieri's threats. After accidentally poisoning him with soup, Kazai appeared concerned for him; and when Buwaro scolded him for leaving the group and upsetting Kieri, Kazai apologized, and finally answered Buwaro's attempts at friendship. The two of them find common ground in their love for Kieri.

Rhea Snaketail[]

Kazai is dismissive of Rhea as a Median, and distrusts her as she appeared to be working with Demons; though he did fight Lazuli by her side. The two of them are tense and prone to fighting, even though they do not speak each other's language.

Crunky[]

When Kazai upset Kieri, Crunky attacked him, and he's shown to be wary of her ever since. He calls her a "cat", as he knows little of Median animals.

Jay Thorndyke[]

Kazai thinks of J as the "pretty Median", and admits he only likes soup because they're the one that made it. However, following the poisoned soup incident, he believed them to be a perv attempting on his sister's honor.
