Personality Active and athletic, K'shi mainly enjoys solo sports like running, swimming, and hiking. He is concerned with how he appears to others and strongly dislikes his short stature. K'shi is rather a closed book; the only person he trusts completely is his dragon, and he's reluctant to open up to other people, even those he's related to or works closely with. While he tries to be polite to others, he can come across as a bit standoffish thanks to poor social skills and general shyness.

He and his sister Kihana have a rather strained relationship. While the two were close as children and as young riders, K'shi became increasingly anxious when he realized he was transgender and withdrew from Kihana, worried about her potential reaction. He still cares very much for his sibling, but is both reluctant and unsure of how to show it.
