Anything Else?
Inner Stuff
Likes:
- The thrill of battle
- Proving himself to others
- Swordsmanship
Dislikes:
- Losing friends, not being there for them
- Being used
- Not getting a good fight out of an enemy
Strengths:
- He has world class level swordsmanship, surpassing even Kei
- His senses are extremely well adapted, as a Wolf type Kaizo Ningen
- He’s quick on his feet, and strong, making him a hard foe to defeat
Weaknesses:
- Senses can be overloaded
- His loyalty can be manipulated. If a friend is captured, he would do anything to free them, anything ordered, told. He’d die, need be
- Women. He’s loyal, chivalrous…women are his weakness, as he often refuses to fight them, and will do anything told to him by one, basically
Goal(s):
- Assist in Vector’s downfall
Habits/ Quirks:
- In battle, he has an overreliance on his Ridol, and being a swordsman, will only use Whip mode, no matter how bad it looks, and how stupid that move is
Relationships:
- Kei Noro – his friend
Overview:
Kaido is a man who is undyingly loyal to his friends, and who has a good sense of morals about him, especially regarding women. These morals come from friendship, as he knows how to keep friends. Growing up without any, he finds this important, even as a soldier for Vector. He has a thrill for battle, savoring it, because it lets him show his ability. He’s a world class swordsman, and has a drive to always prove himself to others, so they understand him.
He hates to lose friends, for aforementioned reason of having had none in childhood. He hates to be used, as he is his own man, and he also hates to not get a good fight out of an enemy, since he loses the chance to test himself against someone new.

History
Kaido’s past is mostly unknown. What is known is that he became a police officer in Tokyo, and at some point, was recruited into Vector to be one of their soldiers. He was modified into a Kaizo Ningen and made into wolf cyborg. He fought for them, and survived many battles, becoming upgraded into “General Wolf” and being made a field commander.
He befriended Kei at some point. During Kei’s defection, Kaido was supposed to stop him, and kill him. He had the power to stop Kei, after all, that was proven, as Kaido was the superior swordsman, and his body had more abilities. He didn’t. He staved off the attack to allow Kei to flee, but was mortally wounded in the process.
Kei came back for him, saving him and returning the favor. When Kaido told Kei to leave him, Kei refused, and brought Kaido along, to safety. While hiding, Kei performed surgery to save Kaido’s life, upgrading him with what he could from his own body, abandoning the powers of X and giving them to Kaido, reworking the armor of General Wolf so as to increase Kaido’s chances to survive.
It worked. Kaido was now Kamen Rider X, and went with Kei, to continue the fight against Vector. Only because his friend had left. He had no other reason to betray, but friendship was superior.

Sample RP:
He slashed his rapier aside, cutting down a Combatman who came for him. The others were wary now, watching him, while waiting on backup to arrive. They knew they couldn’t defeat General Wolf, so even if it meant Kei possibly escaping, they had to wait. As Kaido waited as well, an explosion struck him as Bazooka Turtle came through the throngs of Combatmen, having just fired.
Kaido picked himself up, coughing hard from the explosion slamming into him. He lifted his rapier up, ready, but he knew is foe wouldn’t come near him. He saw Combatmen getting ready to rush him as well.
This wasn’t going to end well.
A rope lashed out, whipping at Combatmen. Kaido glanced back, “Kei?” he questioned, “I told you to go!”
As he said those words, another explosive hit. Kaido screamed out and hit the ground, his side torn open from a direct impact. He couldn’t hear Kei’s words, but saw Kei fighting to save him. Fighting the throngs of enemies.
Kei wasn’t going to let his friend die. Kaido smiled.
