Kazuo Kiriyama (TIE)

Kazuo Kiriyama was a human male Shadowtrooper who served in the Galactic Empire's Imperial Intelligence Agency under Lord Shadowspawn. He hailed from the planet of Royale, a world in the Inner Rim. Due to a speeder accident shortly after birth, the part of his brain that allowed him to have human emotions was crippled, making him unable to feel feelings such as remorse or empathy.

Behind the Scenes
The author based this character off his favorite characters from one of his favorite novels, one that was written originally in Japan but also published in English, called Battle Royale. It was similar to the Hunger Games. The character in the novel had the same name, and was also devoid of all emotion. Kiriyama's homeworld, Royale, is a reference to the book title.
