"pale skin, cherry lips, dark hair. some might think he's a vampire."

Kaito has dark, jet black hair that falls forward on his fast and barely covers his stormy grey eyes. He has a pale complexion contrasting with his cherry red lips. He stands at 5 feet 8 not too tall, not too short and is very muscular. Hidden at the back of his neck is a thin scar. When Kaito is alone, he prefers to wear comfortable, baggy sweatshirts and tees. However due to his aunt and uncles dislike of him wearing β€œshabby” clothes, he primarily wears high end suits. As an act of subtle rebellion however, he will always make sure to style it with an expensive watch, a chain, earrings or bracelets and leave the collar undone refusing to give them any control.

"dark and moody but golden in the inside."

Reducio
To the rest of the world, Kaito looks like an arrogant, moody, and careless pureblood heir who could never care about anyone beneath him. Maybe it was because of his demeanor, how he was raised, or the fact that he never spoke more than a single word to someone he didn’t know. However if one got close to him, they would know he cares deeply about people, and is extremely loyal to his friends. When he gets close to someone, he will be extremely overprotective and caring. Because he was give little care as a child, any sign of genuine affection like a compliment, or a hug will break his facade just for a moment. Those who know him, know he loves to play the guitar, is excellent at photography and loves dogs especially golden retrievers.

"when tragedy came, it tore him apart. but he won't let that stop his from reaching his full potential."

Reducio
Kaito grew up in a warm, loving household raised by Daichi Shinozaki and Rena Shinozaki. The two of them moved to New Zealand for their jobs choosing Queenstown for the cloudy environment in the mountains as Daichi was a vampire and Ren was human. They taught him to value people as who they are rather than just their blood status. They lived in Queenstown, New Zealand enjoying a peaceful quiet life tucked away in their mountain home. Both his parents tended to the home and completed most of their work from home, shielding Kaito from the harsh realities of the outside world. However when Kaito was six years old, his father was mysteriously pulled away for urgent work in Japan and was never seen again. Only a few weeks later his mother passed away from a mysterious illness leaving Kaito entirely alone, and deeply depressed.

With no remaining connections in New Zealand, he was forced to move to the coastal estate in Fukui, Japan, to live with his distant aunt and uncle. However unlike his parents, his new guardians were cruel, elitist pureblood vampires or dhampirs, who resented Kaito, as his parents had left the majority of their massive family fortune to him. He was consistently subjected to the strict control and cruelty of his aunt and uncle. In a brutal encounter, his aunt and uncle forcefully cut his long hair, against his will, with a knife, leaving a deep cut in his neck, that eventually scarred. He attended his mother and father’s joint funeral at the age of seven, six months later, and that marked the last day his parents were ever allowed to be talked about.

Starting the day after, his snobbish cousins, aunt and uncle, arranged a marriage between him and one of his distant cousins, a cruel, strict girl a few years older, in an attempt to secure his inheritance. Kaito, too young at the time to understand, willingly agreed, before realizing later what a mistake had made; he had signed his life away. For the rest of his childhood, he was constantly monitored, given little to no freedom and was forbidden from interacting with anyone deemed β€œlesser” by his new guardians. His only escape was talking to his best friend Ryusei in the neighboring mansion where they soon forged an incredible bond.

Throughout his time at the Fukui mansion, Kaito buried the sweet, naive child he used to be curled up in his mother’s arms. He learned to armor himself in a facade. He stopped speaking unless spoken to, reducing his vocabulary to icy, single word answers. He allowed himself to dress in stuffy suits like a cold and careless aristocrat. And by the time he was a teenager he forgot everything else. He forgot how to smile. How to let people in. How to display his inner emotions. Everyone saw him as an arrogant pureblood because that was what he was trained to be. Everyone but his best friend Ryusei. But when his letter to Mahoutokoro finally arrived, it only took a few weeks of exposure in the real world to remember everything his parents had taught him. And learn exactly how to rebel.

Kaito’s first instance of magic happened much later than his aunt and uncle would have liked. Because of this, he was only able to attend Mahoutokoro’s day camp for one year. At the age of 10, Kaito was arranged a meeting with his future fiancee for only the second time. As a charm of good luck, Kaito had brought the glass rose pendant that his mother typically wore, as it had been his mother’s good luck charm. He tucked it under his button down shirt.

The meeting had started relatively pleasant, the two conversed while eating and asked each other questions. However it was obvious that Kaito did not want to be there, as he had been dragged by his aunt and uncle. His fiancee, finally tired of his lack of attention grabbed him by the collar, demanding that he show more attention. His fiancee, a few years older, then noticed the glass rose pendant and proceeded to rip it off of his neck, just to really catch his attention. She had no idea how much it meant to him. She dropped it on the floor, letting the glass rose shatter into a million pieces.

Kaito, angry, and extremely unhappy with his fiancee had screamed at the time, shoving her over into the chair. As he did so, the glass rose pendant magically levitated back together into his hands. His fiancee lay on the floor next to the chair watching Kaito holding his pendant. That was the first time Kaito had displayed any magic. His aunt and uncle were happy that he had displayed his first instance of magic but were also extremely unhappy that he had disrespected his future fiancee. In the next week, Kaito began to attend Mahoutokoro day camp however which he enjoyed a lot more than just staying in the Fukui mansion.

Kaito's father, Daichi Shinozaki was a vampire. His side of the family had all been vampires and dhampirs, including his parents and siblings where he lived in Fukui, Japan. However when he moved to Queenstown, New Zealand for a job, he met Rena, a witch. They worked together in their job, as coworkers, then eventually friends and finally after sharing so many days together through the ups and downs, slowly fell in love.

His parents disapproved of this relationship, but a few months before their marriage, they passed away. His sister, Aiko had married another vampire, Sota someone his parents had approved of, sparking his parents to compare Daichi to his sister constantly. However a few months before their marriage, his parents passed away, and the two of them decided that even though it went against his parents wishes, they wanted to be together anyways. And so they married at s small venue with only some close friends. When Aiko and her husband heard the news that Daichi had married a human, even if she was a witch, they freaked out, especially because they believed it disrespected their parents. Daichi believed that if they were alive they would see the love they shared and agree nothing coild stop that. This conflict caused a huge rift between them and they lost contact until Daichi disappeared and Rena died from a mysterious illness. Kaito, not having any family in New Zealand moved in with Daichi's sister, Aiko.

Kaito never spoke of being a dhampir. His parents never spoke of it either. However, he was immediately introduced to the life of living with those who only talked about vampire and dhampir relating things. Kaito realized how little he knew of this topic. All his life, Kaito had learned never to drink blood, and to basically act like a human, even though he wasn’t fully one. He tried to continue doing that in this new environment but it became difficult. As his black spot on his eyes grew, he had to accept that he was not human.

He began to see the differences grow more and more. He realized he was paler than most, the ring around his eyes were darker than most, and while he didn't crave blood, he knew he would eat it if he wanted. Yet, he continued not trying to embrace that side.

Kaito never had a problem with his dhampir side because he knew how to control it easily from his parents back in New Zealand. However this became even more and more difficult as he grew older. His cousins, aunt and uncle would constantly try to make him lose it and go out of control. For this reason, Kaito learned to put up a cold barrier.

His saving grace was when he eventually met his best friend Ryusei, his next door neighbor who was also a dhampir. Together, they were able to figure out how to manage their differences. The two of them spent a lot of time together, mostly in Kaito’s case so he could get out of the house, but also because he enjoyed spending time with Ryusei. Slowly he learned that being a dhampir wasn’t a bad thing but it wasn’t a good thing either. You had to have the right balance and control to live with it, something that neither his parents nor his new guardians taught him, leaving him very confused. But with Ryusei the two of them were able to figure out what it meant to be half human and half vampire. And what it took to live between two worlds as a dhampir.
