It also has an instant cooling feature and fire resistance: black leather gloves that cannot cut through, and metal tactical hard knuckles.

Weapons: Primary Weapon- Death Hunter/ It is a katana with an 8" wide 40" long blade and a handle that can switch the blade from a flame blade to a lightning blade. The module can switch into different types of element dust by putting the blade into the sheath; the one that he uses the most is fire.

In the notes, he said he based both weapons on the Branwen twins.

Semblance: Ghost Shroud/ he can manipulate and walk into the shadows at any given time. He can create shadow copies of himself. When it is nighttime, his ability is at his most dangerous, where he can move around as if he is a ghost to a point where he is intangible. When he walks into the shadows, he becomes a part of the darkness (In other words, the darker the area, the more of a ghost-like.). Fox Magic/ He has a second ability that his Faunus type. This ability can conjure up blue fireballs that can burn through solid metal. Flames can't be extinguished unless he wants to. It also grants him the ability to see and hear the souls of the dearly departed.
Backstory: Orphaned and alone, Kasper was on his own at a very young age, but then he was taken in by an assassin's group called Shadow Claw. They were trying to make him into the deadliest assassin that the world has ever seen. He had an older brother, but he went missing for a few years. Kasper assumes that he is dead or faked it. Either way, his brother is gone and left Kasper alone to fend for himself. Now Kasper has a wanting to leave the assassins' life and believes that this message may give him that opportunity to do so.
Prologue of K
As the sun sets upon the desert sands of Vacuo, Kasper stands there looking back at the sun setting behind the dunes. 'Well, at least I got a decent view before leaving,' Kasper says in his thoughts while looking with a straight face. Then a ghost that was a soldier holding his head says while standing next to Kasper, "Are you sure that they will show up and not kill you on site." Kasper looks at the ghost with a blank look on his face, and then he went back to looking at the sunset. "So is that a yes or a no? There's no telling with you," the ghost soldier with a slightly agitated tone in his voice.
"I don't know, but I'm pretty sure he knows what he's doing, old man," says in a playful tone by another ghost that is a man that looks like he is in his mid-20s, wearing a black blazer with a white collared shirt with a gaping hole in his chest, and black slacks and black dress shoes.
"And what makes you so sure, you shitty punk," the ghost soldier said in a disgruntled tone in his voice.
"I'm just saying you should have some faith in the little shadow fox," the young man says with a relaxed look on his face.
While Kasper was looking at the sunset ignoring the two ghosts, his scroll made a ping, indicating that he got a text message.
Message from Sunny Idiot
Made it here at Mistral wish you were here, Kaz.
Kasper gives out a sigh at the message, then he looks at the sunset going behind the dunes, and he says out loud to the two ghosts, "Quiet, it's about time for them to get here, and for that, I need to focus."
"So, do have a plan or not," the ghost soldier asks with a concerned look on his face.
"Yes, and to answer your question that you asked a couple of minutes ago, I have information that they would want," Kasper says while looking at the ghost soldier. "Besides, the plan is already in motion," he says while spotting a convoy of vehicles coming towards him. Kasper walks over to his weapon Death Hunter with a big sigh, "Whatever deity is looking out for me, forgive my transactions that are about to happen."
As Kasper waits for the vehicles to come to him, he notices something rustling up in the dunes behind him. He says to the sharp-dressed ghost, "Felix, could you do me a favor and do a quick area sweep." Felix nods and floats away to do an area sweep.
The convoy of vehicles parked right beside each other. Felix came back from his sweep; he told Kasper that there are four snipers in position on the dunes behind Kasper. Kasper's ear twitched slightly, then while still having his scroll in his hand, he waved it to vehicles, and he proceeded to call someone, and the other end answered. "I'm going to assume that I'm talking to you right now, Shadow Fox," a young woman's voice from the other end of the line. "That is correct. I only two questions before you and your men come out of your vehicles," Kasper said to the man on the other end of the line.
"The first question is the four snipers on top of the dunes your people," Kasper asks to see how they will respond. "No, they are not mine, but if you can capture them alive if you can," the man on the line says to Kasper. "With that, you also answered the second question; I'll be right back," as Kasper says that as he jumps in the air and fades into darkness.
He spots the four snipers' positions while floating in the air undetected by them. The snipers look to be in disarray due to Kasper's disappearing act. Kasper glides down right behind one of the snipers and knocked them out with a tranq dart, 'One target down proceeding to next target,' Kasper says in his head while restraining the unconscious sniper.
He jumped into the shadows again, then floats to the next sniper while trying to be undetected. He neutralizes the second sniper by shocking them with a taser gun. 'Another target neutralized, let's wrap this up,' as Kasper was restraining the sniper that he knocked unconscious looks over to the last two snipers. He twitches his ear after he thought of a plan to handle the two remaining snipers.
Kasper pulls out his weapon Deadly Night and looks through the scope to see where the other two snipers are. 'Targets in sight now proceeding to plan,' as he thought while he jumps into shadows. He shot both of the sniper rifles; the gunman became in disarray. Then he proceeded to the closest sniper and grabbed them then throws them down into where the vehicles are currently parked. He immediately went to the last sniper grabbed and pulled them into the shadows with him.
Kasper dropped the gunman in front of the group and then said to the group, "Targets have been taken care of, and they're two more upon the dunes unconscious. Can somebody get them." As Kasper walks over to the lead car, he notices everyone is staring at him. "Well, aren't you the popular one," Felix says with a nervous grin. This was very understandable to Kasper, considering that he is one of the deadliest assassins in all of Remnant. However, that didn't bother Kasper much cause this is where he turns his life for the Kasper leans against the lead vehicle then the window rolls down. "Let's talk a deal," Kasper says while taking off his mask.
"I must say you're good as the rumor says 'Phantom of the Desert'," a young woman's voice came from the car. "Am I to understand that what you told me the other day to be true," Kasper looking at the shooters being restrained and being taken away. "I am always good to my word as you will someday learn, and yes I can give a clean slate as well as safe passage," the car door opens signaling Kasper to enter the car. "Please enter there is more that we need to discuss," Kasper is hesitant at first then he enters the vehicle, and then the vehicle starts moving.
That's when he got his first face-to-face contact with Octavia Blackrose otherwise known as 'The Rose of Desert.' They are the same age and yet she has quite the commanding presence about her, despite being a part of one of the most influential families in Vacuo she has made quite a name for herself. With coffee-colored skin like unblemished ceramic, and has eyes with an evening sky red-violet hue. She has long flowing glossy black hair that is reminiscent of the starry night sky. A high nose compliment perfectly formed eyebrows, and with full sensuous black lips. A delightfully curvaceous body accompanied with an impressive height of 6' 3', a gracefully sculpted neck, and long slender legs. Her beauty could bewitch anyone with just a glance. Wearing a crescent moon hairpin, a gothic black long coat with red-violet rose patterns on the coattails, a red-violet rose symbol on her right shoulder, and one gold and silver shoulder cord on the left shoulder. A red-violet and black overbust corset with flower-laced shoulder straps and a red collar shirt, and with a red-violet sash wrapped around her waist. A black high-waist pants, and red-violet mid-calf high-heel boots.
"Well I'll be damned it's the Rose of Desert, she is as beautiful as the rumor says," Felix who was mesmerized by her. "I would be more worried about that giant dog next to her," what first seemed like a car seat started moving behind Octavia. "I see you have a Palamute with you," Kasper looking at the Palamute very nervously. Palamutes are huge dogs, so large that a person can them, and this one is certainly living up to the rumors as it raised its head to look at Kasper with red eyes. "Yes her name is Vicki, and I see that you really are a Nine-Tails Fox Faunus," Octavia petting her Palamutes' head while looking at Kasper, this made his tails move slightly, and she gave a look on her face. "I heard rumors but I thought that they were exaggerated, and now I see it for myself," she gives Kasper a calming smile to relax him, and she pulls something out of her pocket. "This is thanks for saving my little brother, and for dealing with my piece of shit who decided to kidnap him," her eyes start to glow, and then she gives him a photo. "Who is this," Kasper looking at the photo with a blank expression. "That is the one who might be?" Kasper studies the person in the photo.
"That is someone who I think can help you find new purpose in life," Octavia looks out the window too if they reach their destination. "His name is Derek Night and before you ask yes he is from that 'NightFamily', and I believe he can give you what you want and possibly more he's good like that," she smiled with that remark which Kasper takes notice. 'I get the feeling that she must be speaking from experience when she made that statement,' Kasper thought to himself while noticing a momentary warm look on her face. The fact that she wants him to meet someone from The Night Wardens of Vale has peaked him that he thinks about it he has heard of Derek Night before, he is the one that singlehandedly took down a Sea Feilong, and he has earned the title Battlemaster of Vale at the age fourteen.
"Where do I find him exactly?" she doesn't expect him to go on a wild goose chase for this guy does she? "You'll be able to find him in Vale, he'll get an offer to go to Beacon, then knowing him he'll be reluctant to go *giggle, but he will go all the same," she laughs as if she is remembering something, Kasper's tails start to move more. "I assume that you know him personally," she looks at him then looks at his tails, and then giggles at the curious fox. "*Clears Throat* If you meet him then you can ask him, some advice he'll appreciate honesty hates surprises, especially if he has to find out that you are now an ex-assassin, so you might want to tell him as soon as you can, also he has a little volatile side to him so be very careful," she gives stern look on her face, and then the vehicle stops moving. "Ma'am we have reached the destination," the driver says while getting out of the vehicle, then walks to her door to open it, and then she got out then her Palamute follows suit she gestures to Kasper to come along.
"Well looks like it's time for you to get going, things are going to be rather dangerous in the kingdom, so this is goodbye for now I'll see you another time," she points to the aircraft that is prepared for departure, and Kasper walks to the aircraft then stops short. "Is there something you want me to pass a message along if and when I see him," she looks at him for a minute then plays her hair for a minute. Then she gives a smile then walks closer to him to whisper so no one else can hear. "Tell him that when I meet him again, that when I come back to Vale I want him to sweep me off my feet like the Black Knight that he is again *Clears Throat, well you get the idea just mention Black Knight, and he'll know that I have sent you," Kasper gives a weird look then he nods and enters the aircraft. The aircraft lifts off from the ground and then heads east towards Vale.
This is the turning point for him, and soon he'll meet someone who can help him find his purpose in life. In that future, he will become known as 'The Master of Shadows.'
