Kasei Dornmos Gobi
From Hyrule
Kasei Dornmos Gobi, the rebel flame, is a mercenary Sheikah warrior. He seems to be a reliable, if somewhat straightforward, guy. He is currently one of the survivors of the Dusk Village.
As a survivor, Kasei is now a servant of the gods, more specifically the fierce deity. In the service, Kasei carries out many orders, including the removal of Sovelis' powers when the Tempest entered Hyrule. Although Kasei serves the gods, his allegiance is doubted by many characters.

Personality and Abilities
In contrast to most Sheikah in Hyrule, Kasei is a very open character. He is very kind and generous, and will listen to another's story. He offers his help whenever he feels it is needed, and knows when not to get involved. Even so, he is still a Sheikah, and as such keeps himself composed. Ever since his return to Hyrule he has been serious, which comes in handy in most situations. He is very analytical, and takes in his whole surroundings. Nevertheless, he likes to take life hands-off, drinking and partying wherever he feels.
As far as power goes, Kasei has no bounds. His service to the deities of Hyrule enables him to have a near-limitless supply of power, something he detests, stating he prefers to gain his own power. The only thing given to him by the gods is his life-force spell, which lets him elongate his life by stealing an opponent's life-force. As with many other characters, Kasei practices magic, especially fire spells, which come naturally to him as he is ignipotent. This mastery of fire has earned him the title "The Rebel Flame", though it is not his only skill.
His true power lies in physical combat. He is exceptionally skilled with a sword, and with hand-to-hand combat. His unnatural physical strength and speed, gained from years of hard training, make him deadly in a fist fight, and his speed makes a sword fight against him difficult.
All else aside, Kasei is a Sheikah, and is therefore the inheritor of their shadow arts, though he is wary of them. He is not so quick to use anything more than Shadowmeld, unlike other Sheikah such as Alpha. However, when he does decide to use shadow, he is far more powerful than in any other of his battles. Utilizing darkness, Kasei can create alternate worlds to send his opponents and battle them freely. He also can create weapons of shadow, fire blasts of darkness, and even force open the rift using the power of the Sheikah.
He is not without flaws; however, as his old age means that his strength is wavering, his attacks are strong but his grip is brittle. He is also, like any other Sheikah, susceptible to light attacks, as well as the fact that being drenched in water makes his fire spells useless.
History
Service to the gods
The story of Kasei begins at Dusk Village in Tantari Desert, the home of the Shiekahn elementals. Around the age of twenty, Kasei's home was destroyed, many of it's inhabitants were killed in one night. The Sheikah spent the next few weeks wandering Hyrule, until he was found by the gods, who offered him any one wish in return for servitude. He agreed, and was made a servant of the gods.
Only a few months later, Kasei was ordered to use his special abilities to end a country alongside the seven stars. He was hesitant, but agreed when he saw how corrupt the nation's people were. Over the next hundred years, Kasei traveled the globe, doing the god's will and collecting many artifacts, witch he now keeps in a back room at his house.

Powers and abilities
Kasei is generally viewed as one of the more powerful beings in Hyrule. His status as a servant of the gods gives him access to incredible powers.
Kasei's trademark ability is fire. He is in complete control of the element, can create and use it as a weapon, teleport using it, and do various other things. This is what earned him his title, the Rebel Flame.
Even though he is best known for his adeptness with fire, Kasei claims it is one of his weaker skill, and is seen using far stronger abilities within HA2. He can harness raw magical energy for an attack, for example, throwing a blast or roaring to create a shockwave. As a Sheikah, he is naturally fast. He is also incredibly strong, and can punch through most defenses, even spells. He is shown using the power of darkness as well, and can make blades and spikes, crush people, and send them to an alternate dimension.
He is also shown using far deadlier powers, such as a spell only the dusk village inhabitants are taught; making explosions of their element. He can also force open the rift for his own use. However, his deadliest spell is the life-force technique, which steals an opponents soul to increase his own life span. His list of abilities has only just begun to appear, though.
