Kamakiri

Tan and powerfully built, Kamakiri keeps his hair in a Mohawk and shades his eyes behind round, red-tinted glasses set in white frames. Oversized, brightly colored earrings dangle at each side, and the feathered wings common to the Shandia spread from his back. His outfit pairs a grass skirt, cinched by an ornate red-and-green belt, with a pale red fur vest and a necklace strung from what look like animal claws or teeth.

Once the timeskip passes, he simply drapes a guard's coat over his shoulders on top of the same attire.

Among the Shandia, Kamakiri stands out for his gentler manner, treating others with more warmth than his fellow warriors tend to show. He counts Raki and Aisa as close friends and ranks among the fighters Wyper leans on most. Where his leader runs hot, Kamakiri keeps an even, composed temper.

Likely the mightiest Shandia beneath Wyper himself, Kamakiri drew rare praise from Enel, who singled him out as the only warrior offered a chance to strike the god down. That chance came to nothing against the lightning body, and he was beaten with ease, yet his toughness let him fight on after wounds from Ohm and even endure one of Enel's devastating blasts. In a fight he favors a spear and a Burn Blade and travels swiftly aboard a Jet Board.

Born into a people shaped by endless war, he grew up on the legend of Kalgara. During the struggle for Upper Yard he cautioned Aisa against gathering Vearth, marched with the warriors toward the God's Shrine, and took a wound shielding Raki from the priests. When Enel appeared, Kamakiri drove his spear into the god's skull but could not pierce the Logia, and a one-million-volt strike left him broken; recovering, he sent Raki to warn Wyper that Enel had grown too dangerous. He celebrated with the Skypieans once the war ended and joined his people in nursing the forest back to life. Following the timeskip he serves under Wyper as one of Skypiea's God's Guards alongside Genbo and Braham, and during the Egghead broadcast he is visited by Conis and Aisa.
