Asuka Hiden

**Asuka Hiden** (アスカ 秘伝, *Hiden Asuka*) is an alias taken by a unknown boy who is the current CEO of Hiden Intelligence. He fights as **Kamen Rider Zero-One** alongside his Humagear companion Delmo to pursue his dream of making humans and humagears equal.

## History

### Backstory

This young boy was born in Tokyo, Japan to a wealthy family. His whole life, his real name was basically hidden from him, his family calling him Asuka. His father later inherited HIDEN intelligence from Asuka’s uncle, Tons. After his father’s retirement, Asuka inherited the Japan Branch of HIDEN. Before his father’s retirement, he created the Hiden Zero-One driver. He gave the driver to Asuka, discussing how he could use it. Asuka listened to his father, and he later used the driver to transform into **Kamen Rider Zero-One,** so he could defend the lives of Humagears, Humans and every other species on Earth.

Shortly after becoming Zero-One, Asuka went to give his brother, Arazaki, food for the night. Unfortunately, while knocking on the door, he saw smoke come out from the door, forcing him to break the door down. Despite his best attempts to put out the fire on his brother's body, he failed, causing him to witness Arazaki burn to death. Ever since, Asuka has gotten more quieter and serious when it comes to his family.

## Personality

“Asuka” is a bright young man. He makes sure that he can be a fun CEO, and not a mean and stressful CEO. He believes in the good of everyone, especially villains and humagears. He tends to try and be friends with everyone, even A.I.M.S Riders, who aren't really that nice to someone like him.

After the death of Arazaki, Asuka became more quiet and serious on some occasions when it comes to his family.

**Rising Hopper** (ライジングホッパー, *Raijingu Hoppā*) is Zero-One's grasshopper-based primary form accessed by using the Rising Hopper Progrisekey in the Hiden Zero-One Driver.

While it serves as Zero-One's balanced default form, Rising Hopper excels at jump height and kicking power, outclassing all of his other main forms as well as other Riders in these areas due to using grasshopper data.

Rising Hopper consists of the following parts:

* **Hopper Head** (ホッパーヘッド, *Hoppā Heddo*) - The head.
	+ **Hopper Mask** (ホッパーマスク, *Hoppā Masuku*) - Rising Hopper's faceplate. It protects the face and reproduces the capabilities of grasshoppers to extend the wearer's capabilities.
	+ **Zero-One Signal** (ゼロワンシグナル, *Zerowan Shigunaru*) - The Zero-One system's control device. Located between the eyes. It has a role of controlling the signaling system for adapting to various Progrisekeys, matching and information transmission loss with the wearer, adjustment to close the ability extension to the theoretical value by checking such as defects is performed.
	+ **Hopper Antenna** (ホッパーアンテナ, *Hoppā Antena*) - The antenna. By adopting an active method for performing directional control by changing the phase and wavelength, it is possible to detect even the smell by introducing the state-of-the-art olfactory element.
	+ **Hopper Eyes** (ホッパーアイ, *Hoppā Ai*) - The compound eyes. Different image sensors of the method are assembled in compound eye shapes, it is possible to extract a variety of information, including thermography and X-ray imaging by combining with image processing. In addition, it is also possible to view high-altitude observation information from the communication satellite **Zea** (ゼア, ***Zea***).
* **Rise Architecter** (ライズアーキテクター, *Raizu Ākitekutā*) - The black undersuit. It is a human strengthening system that uses electromagnetic induction to activate the wearer's physical abilities and brings out superhuman strength. The material is a woven fabric made of a special fiber **Hiden Hexa Fiber** (ヒデンヘキサファイバー, *Hiden Hekisa Faibā*) with excellent toughness and soft metal fiber **Hiden Amorphous Line** (ヒデンアモルファスライン, *Hiden Amorufasu Rain*), and it is very thin and supple though it is woven together with information cables. Inside, the liquid armor **n-NA** ((「n-NA」), ***n-NA***), a kind of non-Newtonian fluid with excellent bulletproof and shock absorption, is enclosed, maintaining flexibility and maintaining the protection of the whole body. In addition, as basic equipment of the Zero-One system, it is possible to develop and evolve by adding various abilities based on the data of the Progrisekey.
	+ **Architecter Head** (アーキテクターヘッド, *Ākitekutā Heddo*) - The Rise Architecter's helmet parts; the black parts of the helmet. The human strengthening system using electromagnetic induction activates the wearer's physical abilities and brings out superhuman strength. Just like the Rise Architecter, it is made up of Hiden Hexa Fiber, Hiden Amorphous Line and contains n-NA within it.
	+ **Architecter Shoulder** (アーキテクターショルダー, *Ākitekutā Shorudā*) - The shoulders, made of **Hiden Alloy** (ヒデンアロイ, *Hiden Aroi*), with a Knoop hardness of 8200, the shape with excellent aerodynamics disperses the kinetic energy of impacts and shells, and by deflecting it, it increases the defense performance and reduces the air resistance on itself Improve even motility.
	+ **Hiden Linker** (ヒデンリンカー, *Hiden Rinkā*) - The collar armor piece, made of soft metal **Hiden Amorphous** (ヒデンアモルファス, *Hiden Amorufasu*) armor by neuronal connection of the wearer's body using a pseudo-impulse, to provide a reflection speed to correspond to the calculation speed obtained by the data link with the communication satellite Zea.
	+ **Architecter Arms** (アーキテクターアーム, *Ākitekutā Āmu*) - The arms. It allows the Rise Architecter to pull out superhuman feat from the wearer and can lift up to 3.2 tons of objects.
	+ **Architecter Grab** (アーキテクターグラブ, *Ākitekutā Gurabu*) - The hands. It is possible to extend the sensitivity of the sense of touch by increasing the gripping power by drawing out superhuman force from the wearer.
* **Hopper Breast** (ホッパーブレスト, *Hoppā Buresuto*) - The chest plate. It comes with a built-in the respiratory and hearing device **Rising Lung** (ライジングラング, *Raijingu Rangu*) and the ability of the wearer is extended by reproducing the function of the grasshopper as well as protecting the chest and abdomen.
* **Hopper Legs** (ホッパーレッグ, *Hoppā Reggu*) - The legs. It is equipped with a jumping device **Rising Jumper** (ライジングジャンパー, *Raijingu Janpā*), allowing 60.1m of jumping in vertical jumps. This protects the thigh and reproduces the function of the grasshopper to extend the wearer's ability.
* **Hopper Greaves** (ホッパーグリーブ, *Hoppā Gurību*) - The shin guards. It is equipped with a dampening device dubbed **Rising Absorber** (ライジングアブソーバー, *Raijingu Abusōbā*) which absorbs the shocks created by propelling one of the ground and landing, preventing the user's legs from self-destructing. It protects the shins and reproduces the function of the grasshopper to extend the capabilities of the wearer.
* **Hopper Boots** (ホッパーブーツ, *Hoppā Būtsu*) - The feet. It is made of Hiden Alloy, with a Knoop hardness of 8200, increasing the destructiveness of kicks and defensive power.

	+ **Rising Impact** (ライジングインパクト, *Raijingu Inpakuto*): Zero-One first launches the enemy into the air with a upward kick that creates an energy projection of a grasshopper leg. He then jumps into the air and kicks the enemy downward. As the enemy falls toward the ground Zero-One performs a final flying kick with an energy construct of a robotic grasshopper extending from his foot and breaks through the target's body.
* Attache Calibur finishers:
	+ **Kaban Strash** (カバンストラッシュ, *Kaban Sutorasshu*): Zero-One augments the Kaban Strash with the power of the inserted Progrisekey.
		- Rising Hopper - **Rising Kaban Strash** (ライジングカバンストラッシュ, *Raijingu Kaban Sutorasshu*): Yellow energy is emitted from the Attache Calibur's blade before Zero-One delivers a downward slash followed by a horizontal slash.
		- Biting Shark - **Biting Kaban Strash** (バイティングカバンストラッシュ, *Baitingu Kaban Sutorasshu*): Beams of teal energy and a series of energy shark fins are projected before Zero-One slashes the enemy.
		- Rocking Hopper - **Rocking Kaban Strash** (ロッキングカバンストラッシュ, *Rokkingu Kaban Sutorasshu*): Zero-One charges the Attache Calibur with green and red energy before running up a large enemy, slashing them as he moves. He then leaps high into the air and performs a downward stab as he falls, causing a burst of green energy when he strikes the opponent.
	+ **Kaban Dynamic** (カバンダイナミック, *Kaban Dainamikku*): By switching the Attache Calibur back to Attache Mode, charging it, changing it back to Blade Mode and inserting a Progrisekey, Zero-One can perform a Kaban Dynamic finisher with the power of the inserted Progrisekey.
		- MetalCluster Hopper - **Metal Rising Kaban Dynamic** (メタルライジングカバンダイナミック, *Metaru Raijingu Kaban Dainamikku*): Zero-One delivers two slashes to separate opponents, with each leaving a trail of combined Cluster Cells.
