Kazuto Hayashi

Kazuto Hayashi is the main male Protagonist of Black and White as well as the Devil Servant of Rias Gremory, and a Third Year Student in Kuoh Academy. Throughout the school, he is known as the 'Dark prince of Kuoh,' and not for his looks.

Appearance
Kazuto is an 18 year old boy, a little taller than Rias and Akeno, with a relatively muscular and defined build. He possesses unusual silvery-blue eyes, which he insists are natural, but nobody believes him. His hair is even more bizarre, being black and white streaked. Many people believe it to be artificial, like his eyes, and cannot tell which color is natural and which is dyed. Again, Kazuto insists that this is natural, yet nobody believes him.

If Kazuto isn't wearing the Kuoh Academy Boy's uniform, which consists of a black blazer, white dress shirt, black pants, and white sneakers, he will probably be wearing his favorite leather jacket over a short sleeved white collared shirt, blue jeans, and a pair of combat boots.

Anyone who has seen Kazuto shirtless will know that he has a tribal owl tattoo on his left pectoral.

Personality
Kazuto is very antisocial and introverted person who makes no effort to find or make any friends in Kuoh Academy. He has very little, if any, regard for people's opinion's of him, as he does not believe it's his job to please those around him. He is respectful and well-mannered to those around him, but only to their bare minimum, just enough to be considered a decent person. Though he hates taking instructions and/or orders, beoming rather unleasant when someone tries to force him into doing something he doesn't want to do.

He's known as the 'Dark Pirnce of Kuoh' mainly for his dark personality and interests, which are considered 'creepy' by his peers. He loves supernatural lore, thriller movies, and reading books under a tree in Kuoh Academy's yard, dubbed the 'Creep Tree.' This is his second favorite place to read aside from his own bedroom, with just barely enough light to be able to read.

Kazuto has quite the sarcastic streak to him, one that nobody is exempt from. He'll make sarcastic remarks as they come into his mind with no regard for who or what he is speaking to. This stems from his slight case of Impulse Control Disorder, which contrasts directly with his ability to think ahead.

He is also known to be slightly Autistic, the most potent symptoms being his anxiety when a large event is approaching and a sleep deficit. High pitched and sharp sounds have also been known to bother Kazuto, though not to the point that it's a crippling weakness.

History
Not much is known about Kazuto's past at the moment, other than the fact that his mother told him of the existence of the Three Factions when he was a child, and that he has a weird relationship with his father, who was never around. And not for the typical reasons.

Another mystery concerning his past is his hints that indicate that he wasn't completely human when he was reincarnated.

He was also a childhood friend of Akeno Himejima, though their friendship seems to have taken a strange turn at some point. Akeno struggles to talk about her past with him when he isn't around. Plus, they were in the same school, Kuoh Academy, for several years and never spoke once until Rias brought him back as a Devil.

Powers and Abilities
Demonic Power: Being a Devil, Kazuto has the ability to harness magic just like any other. He is most proficient in Ice and Wind magic, and shows promise with Lightning Magic.

Immense Speed: A shocking discovery for Rias and her Peerage was the fact that Kazuto could move almost as fast as Yumi when they first saw him fight. So far, he refuses to tell anyone how he got that fast.

Martial Arts: Kazuto is a natural fighter, being proficient in a variety of Martial Arts and fighting styles. He claims he was trained by his mother from an early age, but the Gremory group suspect that there's something more to it.

Eidetic/Photographic Memory: Kazuto is able to remember anything he sees or hears down to the smallest detail, even after a moment of exposure. This is demonstrated when he repeats several lines of Kuoh Academy's code of conduct to Rias and Sona, word for word, whilst reading an entirely different book.

Musician: Sona stated that Kazuto was able to play seven different instruments, consisting of the Keyboard, Guitar, Flute, Violin, Theremin, Clarinet, and Cello.

Multilingual: Kazuto is fluent in five different languages, consisting of Japanese, English, Greek, Latin, and Russian. However, since Devils have no language barrier, his fluency in these languages is rendered moot.

Weapon Proficiency: Although he is far from a master, Kazuto has shown skill in using several weapons of all varieties, including, but not limited to, swords, pistols, and shuriken.

Weapon Transformation: Kazuto's father taught him a small trick that allows him to transform any object into a weapon, albeit only temporarily. This was demonstrated when he morphed a branch into a sword when fighting a Stray Devil and the sword turned back when the fight was finished. It was stated by Kazuto that this technique is very taxing on one's stamina.
