Over this outfit he wears a long white duster with a high collar and prominent lapels (the left lapel has a notch taken out of it). The sleeves on the jacket are short, and are cuffed with metal rings. The right shoulder of the jacket bulges into a spherical shape and has a set of wicked-looking impalement spikes protruding from it. The left arm of the jacket has a skull lashed to it. To complete the outfit, Legato also wears fingerless gloves and leather boots that are cuffed at the ankles with metal rings. He wears a weird metal ring around his right thigh like a garter.<gallery mode="packed" heights="150"> | ||

He is dutiful, faithful, and obedient, at least to those he deems worthy (Knives). To everyone else he seems polite but aloof at best; frightening and dangerous at worst. He exudes an aura of power and total control. He seems to have a sadistic streak, though it's debatable as to whether he actually gets pleasure out of tormenting his victims (the exception being Vash). Legato can also be passive-aggressive and is given to deadpan sarcasm, though he doesn't seem to emote much vocally. | ||

Legato serves as Knives' second-in-command and the ''de facto'' leader of the Gung-Ho-Guns (he is the first Gung-Ho-Gun). His primary job is to cause Vash eternal pain and suffering on Knives' behalf, presumably for injuring him during the events that annihilated July. | Legato serves as Knives' second-in-command and the ''de facto'' leader of the Gung-Ho-Guns (he is the first Gung-Ho-Gun).

He is able to take control of another person's mind and body and make them do his bidding (they may or may not be conscious of what's happening). He can also project mental images into a person's mind, and seemingly astral project. Most significantly, he is able to activate Vash's Angel Arm. | ||
Though it isn't outright stated, the source of Legato's power is thought to be Vash's left arm - this was grafted to his body at some point prior to the events of the series. Since Vash is a plant, the graft likely imbued Legato with some of whatever it is that gives plants their powers and abilities. | Though it isn't outright stated, the source of Legato's power is thought to be Vash's left arm - this was grafted to his body at some point prior to the events of the series.
