Personality

"The music, it helps me forget the things we, as Sith, are expected to do."

As the heir to his Clan name Kato is immensely proud of his heritage, often using it as a point to garner respect from fellow Sith. He takes great offence if one were to insult the reputation of the Kuzunoha name and will more often than not challenge anyone who does to a duel to the death.
Kato has a respect for Sith sorcerers and what they are capable of but he has a greater, almost idolisation, admiration of those who have mastered the use of the lightsaber and force in combat.

The Sith were never an order striving for peace but Kato feels as if the only way the Sith can truely take control of the galaxy is by bringing peace upon the worlds, often mocked because of his unorthodox beliefs he usually keeps this notion to himself but he uses it as justification for some of the things he is bound to do as a member of the Sith. His greatest goal is to lead an invasion on an unstable world and lead it's people to a more fulfilling life under Sith rule.

With the field of battle often changing Kato finds himself with a some free time while travelling from one theatre of war to the next. In these rare moments of freedom Kato finds pleasure in listening to Holorecordings of Quenk Jazz from artists across the galaxy, often ignoring minor tasks just to take the time to enjoy the melodies. Music being one of his guilty pleasures, he could go on talking about it for hours. He is also known to take on bounties or odd investigations in his free time, finding the mystery exciting it helps to keep his mind off the atrocities he commits in the name of the sith.

Skills and Abilities
"I have a honourable life ahead, and I will not stand to see it be cut short by you."

Proficant in the use of Form IV Kato employs the use of fast and hard strikes when in combat, outflanking opponents with the use of force assisted acrobatics and enhanced speed. He also makes use of a blaster pistol to keep his attack patterns unpredictable, letting off a couple of shots between blade strikes to distract opponents. Kato has an understanding of force spirits, his clan specialising in said spirits, he has been trained in the summoning of these spirits, however he is reluctant to do so after the loss of his eye. He is however able to summon the spirit of his grandfather, who was sealed into a clan artefact, for advice on a myriad of matters. The Sith has recently began pioneering a new form of force imbued martial arts, enhancing punches and kicks with lightning and bursts of force energy.

However Kato's deep seeded hope for peace often interferes with his connection to the dark side, preventing him from attaining his true potential with the use of darker arts such as the draining of life force or higher forms of Lightning manipulation. Another flaw he harbours, his personality is inconsistent, at times he feels mercy for some while other times he will kill indiscriminately, his inconsistency with his morals often causes people's trust in him to falter. Due to leaving for the battlefield almost immediately after losing his eye Kato never had a cybernetic replacement installed, due to this he has a blind spot on his right side, and while he usually compensates for this with the use of the force, when in stressful situations he finds it hard to concentrate on keeping his extended field of vision constantly active.

Biography
"All I want is a galaxy free of war."

Born into the sith fold Kato has been raised from the moment he could speak to value the code of the notorious religion. His father being a master of the art of the blade and his mother a respected sorceress Kato had a degree of petigree in the upper society of the sith. The boy's clan being well respected in the sith order due to their role in summoning and channelling spirits of lost sith souls, he received a fairly quaint childhood taking up fencing with his father and studying spirits under his mother. The Kuzunoha lineage is one of sith sorcerers, generation after generation the men and women of the clan specialised in the summoning of souls and assisted in sealing them on the dead planet of Korriban. Although Kato found merit in learning his family's traditions he took a more keen interest in refining his skill with a lightsaber, often neglecting his formal sorcery training to spar with sith acolytes studying under his father.

By the age of eighteen Kato had completed his training as an acolyte, excelling in lightsaber combat and having a good grasp of manipulating the force, he was assigned a post at the Kuzunoha shrine to continue learning to manipulate the lost souls of the dead under the clan elders. Years passed before he was allowed to attempt his first summoning, there were risks, the summoning of those at rest sometimes prevoked the spirit into a rage that could only be solved with the blood of the summoner. Because of his inexperience he was locked in the shrine's deepest darkest room and provided the needed 'materials.' A failed acolyte, slaughtered by his brethren on his first day of training, it wasn't an unusual sight but it brought up thoughts about the sense of betrayal deeply embedded in their society. Pushing his thoughts aside Kato preformed the lengthy ritual, spaying incense around the body along with the drawing of ancient sith markers. Moments after completing the ceremony the after image of the former life appeared, angered and lusting for blood. With it's ghostly grip it reached into Kato's head and ripped out his right eye, before disappearing back to the world of the dead. Strangely the wound healed instantaneously no bleeding or collateral damage to the head, leaving the summoner with only one eye and a distaste for summoning. He promptly left his position at the shrine, taking with him a summoning tube containing the soul of his grandfather who was never sealed away on the planet of the dead, and began to focus on more military endeavours.

Spending his following years on the battlefield the now twenty two year old man boasts a heavy involvement in major planetary invasions and the killing of multiple Jedi, being raised to the level of Sith.
