Kaz Miller
Kazuhira McDonell Benedict Miller is a burger van chef and a recurring character in the Waldoverse.
Physical Description:
Kaz Miller stands around 6 feet tall with a distinctive blend of American and Japanese features. He has blonde hair and is rarely seen without his signature aviator sunglasses. His bionic arm and leg highlight his past as a war veteran and add to his rugged appearance. Despite his age, he appears as a man in his 40s.
Background:
Miller's history is deeply rooted in combat and mercenary activities. As a seasoned war veteran, his career includes leading private military companies and constructing military bases. This extensive experience in conflict and leadership has shaped his professional and personal life.
Current Role:
Miller has transitioned from his mercenary past to running a burger van called Pax Hamburgana in Widdlington. His van is renowned for its "Chemical Burgers," which are especially popular at the Masters Council grounds in Waldobury. Despite the shift in career, his burgers have garnered a loyal following, with notable fan Jonathan Frakes frequently indulging in his unique creations.
Personality and Traits:
Kaz Miller is a complex figure in the Waldoverse, known for his anti-establishment attitude and rebellious nature. A former mercenary turned burger van owner, he balances his rugged past with a desire for a quieter life, though his combat skills remain sharp. Despite his reluctance to engage in conflict, he often finds himself drawn back into the fray, needing persuasion to join the fight. Miller is also a skilled guitarist, which adds a creative dimension to his personality. He is notorious for his womanizing ways and is known for his sharp, often biting sense of humour.
Miller’s skills are as varied as his background. His combat expertise includes proficiency in hand-to-hand combat and firearms, honed through years as a mercenary. He also brings substantial leadership experience from managing private military companies. Fluent in Japanese, Miller’s language skills reflect his mixed heritage and diverse background. In addition to his combat and leadership abilities, he showcases his creative side through innovative burger crafting, creating unique and distinctive recipes that set his burger van apart.
One thing unbeknownst to most of his Waldonian customers is Kaz Miller's controversial views on race, particularly towards Sub-Saharan Africans. His hardline beliefs, coupled with his brutal background as a mercenary, earned him infamous nicknames during his tenure with MSF and later Diamond Dogs. These included:
- Kazuhira "Kikongo Killer" Miller
- Kazuhira "One Man Klan" Miller
- Kazuhira "If He's Black, Fulton Him Back" Miller
- Kazuhira "Nuke the Spooks" Miller
Notable Relationships:
- Jonathan Frakes: Miller's best customer and wingman.
- Master Devlin: A regular customer and ally of Kaz Miller. He assisted Kaz in obtaining a licence to operate his van in Widdlington and frequently relies on Kaz's expertise when matters of warfare arise.
