Kaiman (カイマン), or the Magician Killer, is the main protagonist of the manga and anime series, "Dorohedoro". He is a human born in the Hole with an immunity towards magic. He has made it explicitly clear that "Kaiman" was not his actual name, but was given to him by Nikaido after he began suffering from amnesia. His lizard head being the result of a Magic User's curse, his main goal is to seek out the one who cursed him in order to change him back. But, because he can't remember who cursed him, due to his amnesia, Kaiman resorts to clamping his mouth around the head of every Magic User he comes across. He lets them see the "little man" in the back of his head before pulling them back out so he can ask them all the same question: "What did the guy inside my head say?"

Throughout most of the series, Kaiman, true to his moniker, takes on the appearance of a lizard-like entity. Though his body is consistently human with a tall and muscular build, his face and head have changed dramatically due to the effects of a Magic User. He most closely resembles a Paraguayan Caiman Lizard (though some think he looks more like an Iguana), his hair replaced by long and sharp spikes. It appears that despite having his head chopped off, he can regenerate it within a few days. He sports small crosses over his eyes and wears gas masks most of the time, though he refrains from wearing them later on in the series.
