Biography
Born to a human mother and a Kikon-jin father who was absent from his life, Kaito was raised as an outcast, never truly belonging to either world. He found solace in the nascent world of computers, discovering that the "Web" has a spiritual reflection in Kakuriyo. He now lives in a dingy apartment in Osaka, working for a tech firm poised to open a major data center. As the internet explodes into existence, he seeks to carve out a permanent, safe territory for himself within its spiritual reflection, The Iron Forest.
