Appearance and personality

In-game, she has an aggressive, but disciplined and precise personality. Kazagumo has long light brown hair in a ponytail tied off with a hair ribbon. She has grey eyes in tsurime style. She wears standard Yuugumo-class clothing, involving a magenta sleeveless dress, white shirt, cyan necktie, grey pantyhose and lace-up boots. Damage reveals she wears a sky blue and cloud-patterned camisole underneath.

In her combat gear, she carries a wrist-mounted twin-cannon turret, twin torpedo turrets strapped to her thighs, and a backpack-like mounting of her smokestack and mast.

History

In real life, Kazagumo had a short but eventful run, only being completed in early 1942, and beginning her war record at battle of Midway, rescuing the survivors of the doomed carrier force (which explains her hairband bearing Hiryuu's pattern and color). She performed several troop delivery missions, rescued the survivors of the Kinugasa, and participated in the evacuation at Kiska Island. She was sunk in June of 1944 from the USS Hake, a Gato-class submarine, and 133 of her crew were rescued by the Asagumo.
