Character Description:
Kitsune Hiro stands at 6'3" weighing 215 lbs. He has blonde hair, yellow eyes and a muscular build. When piloting a zoid, he wears a gray jumpsuit with blue stripes along the sides of the legs and blue patches on the chest and forearms. Out of a zoid, he is often seen wearing a green shirt, with a darker green vest over it, and khaki pants. His many-pocketed vest contains anything from an electric screwdriver to bits of string and buttons.

...and History:
In a little town called Vulpas in the Frontieum territoy, a zoid mechanic went insane. While it wasn't included in the official report just what made the man crack, it was rumored that the event was little more than someone bumping into him, causing him to drop and shatter some sort of glass object. The man promptly grabbed the offender by the throat and crushed the person's windpipe, causing them to suffocate to death. The man was caught and aprehended in a graveyard, weeping over his sisters grave, muttering something about roses.

A few years later there was a raid on a New Helic prison to release several captured bandits. A man by the name of Kitsune Hiro stepped out of the rubble of his broken prison cell wall and observed the battle going on around him. Bullets, lasers, charged particles, zoids. The destruction and chaos was rampant. He liked it. He would have loved to join in, but that didn't seem like such a great idea. He didn't know much about piloting a zoid in combat. He didn't have the proper clothes. There was a dead guard lying unlooted right next to him.

So Kit sat down. And watched. And waited. And then everything was over. The bandits either retrieved who they wanted or got beaten off. Either way the prison was in disarray long enough for Kitsune to find the dead guard's Iron Kong and make off with it into the surrounding countryside. He apparently was wandering along the same path that the bandits had retreated along, since he soon came upon another zoid standing still for no readily explainable reason. Kitsune decided to investigate.

Turns out, the Dark Horn's pilot had taken a piece of shrapnel straight through the stomach. A slow, painful death that had left the pilot incapable of calling out for help. He was very close to death when Kitsune climbed up to the head of the zoid. He was reaching for some sort of button, probably a distress beacon or something, before Kitsune put a bullet through his head with the guard's side arm. Then he commandeered the Dark Horn and made off in a random direction.

A few days later, there was some gang-related violence in New Helic City. It was reported that a new gang had decided to infringe upon a firmly established gang, sparking the conflict that left many people dead. Of the new gang members, one was referred to as killing the most. Rumors had it that he was some sort of escaped convict, a demon of a man who wielded little more than a pistol and a knife.

This new gang carved out a chunk of New Helic City's shadier region for themselves. They started getting involved in everything: extortion, money laundering, murders, even zoid battles. No one knows exactly how the gang gets their members registered as pilots, rumors and had that it as bribes and insiders.

Kitsune liked the idea of being able to at least half-way legally cause widespread destruction and chaos. He quite literally jumped at the opportunity to be registered as a zoid pilot. The gang had little choice other than to get him in with their contacts and money since he already had two zoids. Oh, and the knife he held to the recruiter's throat.
