Kaiyo is a veteran, and is against using his own race to appear dominant over others. Especially when the region has its own civil tension between humans and half-beasts, he constantly reminds others that everyone should remain equal regardless of how they were born. Admired by so many others, there are quite a few perceptive people that have seen through his flaws, such as his playful attitude can turn into eagerness and impatience. Many of the youthful often refer to him as "Old man," which he doesn't approve so much - he tries to prove that even an old geezer like him could still prove to be capable and better... without trying to use any form of magic.
Quite often that Elder likes to use nicknames. "Puppy" or "Pup" is quite a common term he uses for those who are considerably young. And he develops a deep love and trust to all the inhabitants who wish to live peacefully in the Water tribe - regardless if they immigrated to there or not.

Legacy of Kaiyo, of the Raging Waves

The young generation nowadays never heard of Kaiyo of the Raging Waves... a title that the Elder does not wish to bring back.
In ancient texts, the original inhabitants and creators of the Water Tribe were whole, bestial creatures capable of intelligence and holding magic given by the Water god who protected them. Until humans eventually migrated out into the Water region. The beasts were evntuallu outnumbered by the humans, and eventually had no choice but to integrate with the humans to preserve their own blood. Thus the beast blood among the later generations were admired, and proved their worth through strength and magic.
Kaiyo was born a half-beast in a family who's prominent features are their wolf-like characteristics. The more feral they become, the more powerful they are. Their family took too much pride and ruled the forest that inhabited majority of the land and had heavy influence over the coastal areas. Kaiyo was the youngest pup our of four children, and had to spend so much of his childhood and teenage years watching his family treat humans and non-wolves half-beasts like dirt. Disgusted by his clan's actions, he ran away from his home to live among the coast, where he was cared for a creature who lived in the waters for centuries.
Not realizing who this creature was, it wasn't until during his adult years where the figure was nobody else except for a God. He befriened the God of Water, and they've bestowed Kaiyo magic that only a half-beast could handle.

Kaiyo decided that he wanted to made a difference. With the help of his new God-friend, he ventured back into the forest to challenge his elder brothers to become the next Patriarch. But before he could make it to where his clan lived, an army of fire nomadic demons began to spead chaos and blazed the area with forest fires that stretched for miles. Kaiyo, who had little time to think, used the magic that was blessed by his God, and summoned a typhoon to cast off all the fires and removed all the demons that caused a ruckus in their region.

Background

Kaiyo could only save a fraction of the forest trees, while a majority were already burnt down. Thus, making most of the home of the Wolf clan to be completely demolished. Kaiyo, who proved very capable compared to his brothers and rest of the clan members, were acknowledged by the rest of the Water region - bestowing him the title of Patriarch. While his relatives tried to rebuild whatever glory they once had, Kaiyo could care less what they could recovered and focused on the rebuilding the forest and coastal regions. Inhabitants of the whole region began to emerge into a prosperous area in the coastal section, creating a wonderful haven known as the Water Tribe.
The creation of the Tribe began a small government where Kaiyo laid as their overseer. With the help of their God, their lands recovered in no time - as if the demons had never touched it in the first place.

• Kaiyo uses no weapons to fend for himself. Even if he wants to fight, he will only fight with his fists and then the magic that he was blessed with. From controlling the water to summoning tsuanmis, he can do just about anything.
• If in danger, and he's near a body of water, the God that inhabits the water will appear in a form of a dragon to fend off his enemies until he's safe.
• If he's not fishing at the docks, or at the forest hunting for rabbits - he's likely at his home eating... or hanging out in the hot springs... eating.
• Anybody who is younger to him, whether it be twenty years younger or just a year younger... he's gonna refer to them as "pup" or "puppy."
• Kaiyo loves swimming. During his leisure time, he'll like to spend hours floating around in the ocean. There are days where he'll fall asleep and the waters will take him to an island miles away from the Tribe. However... that will only happen if the Water God is not watching him.
• Even if he says he doesn't like children or babysitting kids, he's actually quite a good father. Children of all ages love him and will climb all over him.
• You can't convince him that seagulls are NOT demons. The amount of times his foods have been snatched by him have been plenty and just the sight of them angers him.
