Heavily into the roleplaying side of Skyrates, though wishing he didn't have to be an anthropomorphic animal. Hashimashadoo is also a beureaucrat of the Forgotten Realms wiki.

Captain Kito
Kito comes from a backwater skyland full of farmers. His mother was a 'lady of the night' who was content to live a life of luxury. She never told her son who his father was, but Kito did happen to find out that he had a brother who died a few days after they were both born. His mother did not share her son's love of learning, preferring to look for wealthy clients who would allow her to keep living the good life and to a lesser extent keep her boy fed.

Kito had always been an explorer. Wherever he went, he would range as far afield as he could. He met a lot of young women in his youth and had some fun, but a he felt called for a higher purpose, while the girls he met simply wanted to stay and work on their farms.

He joined flight school in his mid-teens and became known for his antics as a boy racer. He had a need for speed that overwhelmed his love of the written word, science and philosophy, which were his other interests. Whenever the students organized a race, Kito was there, and he usually won, too. His love of speed was not just restricted to flying either, he was champion of the racetrack as well as the skylanes.

Kito had enrolled in flight school to become a simple trader, but after his home skyland was brutally annexed by the Crimson Armada, he set his sights on a more political goal. He thought that the Azure League would suit his tastes best and planned to join them as soon as he was able. However, once out of flight, Kito found himself the frequent target of pirates, even in supposedly 'safe' airlanes. He has since become a bane to pirates wherever he meets them, always first into the sky when they are reported on the horizon and often first to shoot them down as well.

Personality
Kito is an intellectual who speaks in a country bumpkin accent. He is very down-to-earth and practical, attempting to not let emotion get in the way of things. Despite this, he does form emotional bonds with others fairly quickly. He has and probably always will be a speed freak, going for the fastest and most maneuverable craft he can get his hands on. Though he is far from being above stealing himself, those who steal from him should be wary of being chased down and blown out of the sky.

He is a good-natured soul at heart but can come off as confrontational and when he drinks, he can be downright stupid, though it does take a lot of alcohol to get him into that state.

Although Kito has grown up somewhat since his days of tail-chasing farmgirls, he is still highly amorous, flirting with girls and guys, the more unusual the better.

Appearance
Kito is a long-haired, small-framed feline with white fur, highlighted with grey. He is often seen wearing a long brown leather trenchcoat and carries a revolver, hidden under the coat at his hip.

Aircraft
Desperate to trade in his CR-4P "Red 5" as soon as he could afford to, Kito surprised himself when, after many comments that he'd made to aquaintances about how one would have to be crazy to pilot a Thor, he ended up purchasing one himself. The twin machine guns proved tricky at first, but after a few dogfights and some modifications to widen the firing arcs, he dubbed it "Mjollnir", a fitting name in his mind. Since the beginning of his career though, He had aspired to own a Marauder and eventually managed to get the cash together to buy one. "Rico" proved to be an able dogfighter as well and Kito hopes to get a lot of good service out of it.

His next purchase was a Requin he called "Jaws". Jaws didn't give Kito the fighting upgrade from Rico that he wanted, but he stuck with the plane due to its increased efficiency. Once he'd gathered the cash, Kito bought himself a Loki that he christened "Trickster". Trickster was the upgrade from Rico that he was looking for. Faster, and with a bigger gun mount, Kito started taking on bigger, more deadly opponents with much greater ease. It was also the plane that first got him to Islo, where he fulfilled his objective of joining the Azure League and where he bought the huge barrel of hats that now sits in The Rotor and Prop.
