Koji Kashin

is a member of Kara.

Appearance
Kashin is a tall man with long hair. He keeps the top of his hair in a topknot and also sports a trimmed beard along his jawline. He also noticeable wears a small mask covering the top half of his face. He also wears the black hooded-robe of Kara.

Personality
Kashin is a straight-forward and no-nonsense individual. While seemingly loyal to Kara, he apparently operates under his own views as he was willing to assassinate a fellow colleague. He also seems to be a man who looks to future, as he expects something from Konohagakure.

Abilities
From what has been seen of him, Kashin seems to be a powerful individual. He showed noticeable stealth skill, being able to sneak up on the experienced Kashi unnoticed, albeit he did suggest that Kashi was losing his edge in old age. He is also a powerful Fire Release user, able to completely incinerate an individual, supposedly overcoming a target's regeneration capabilities.

Post-Mujina Bandits Arc
Upon their organisation losing their vessel, Kashin discuses the matter with the other members of Kara. Immediately after their meeting, Kashin approaches the elderly man of their group to assassinate, and mocks him for not noticing his presence. Upon impaling him with a kunai, Kashi incinerates the man, before thinking about Konohagakure.

Trivia

 * Kashin Koji shares his name with a folkloric magician believed to have lived in the late Muromachi period, though his historicity is debated. He is often depicted as a white-haired, bearded, elderly man in robes, and is said to have used his illusions to deceive and defraud prominent rulers such as Oda Nobunaga.
