Normally a good-natured man, as a commander he was full of confidence and dignity. He would also become a very close friend of fellow general [[Teo McDohl]] and was considered the second most experienced of the Great Generals behind Teo.

He is known as "Kasim of the Blue Moon" due to his Blue Moonlight sword. This curved blade scimitar was forged by [[Senan]] nomads using a long-lost technique of the [[Sindar]]. These people has since disappeared and the secrets of Kasim's sword have been lost to time. Originally from the northern wastes himself, Kasim was entrusted with overseeing the Senan region from [[Moravia]] as he was used to desert warfare.

A man of strong patriotism and loyalty, it was thought that Kasim Hazil would be impossible to convince to join the [[Toran Liberation Army]]. When the Liberation Army infiltrated Moravia and Mathiu manipulated the [[City-State of Jowston|Jowston]] army into invading, Kasim was infuriated as a man who had spent his life protecting the north from Jowston.

Even though he knew Mathiu oppossed the empire, Kasim never thought their view of Jowston would differ so. However, he was ultimately convinced to stand down by [[Milich Oppenheimer]], fighting for the Liberation Army for the remainder of the war. By doing so, Kasim hoped to confront the [[Barbarosa Rugner|Emperor]] and convince him to change his ways.

Kasim served the Toran Liberation Army for the rest of the war. At [[Toran Castle]] he would be most frequently be seen in the outer towers along with his fellow Great Generals, perhaps feeling uncomfortable among the rebels. During the final battle, when [[Windy]] berated Barbarosa, Kasim would immediately leap to his defense, unwilling to forgive the woman who changed the man that he served faithfully, even as a member of the Liberation Army.
