Toraoh was initially believed to be the prince and biological son of Mount Doakudar's evil ruler, though a curse later revealed his true origins. He presents as a young man with blond shoulder-length hair, blue eyes, and typically wears the attire of a war prince, complete with a sword at his belt.

Personality-wise, Toraoh is highly energetic, headstrong, and stubborn, often refusing to back down from challenges. While his ego can overshadow his judgment, a deeply kind nature and genuine care for his friends, particularly Wataru, lie beneath this exterior. This fierce loyalty defines his interactions and growth.

Portrayed as the "Demon Prince" Makai, Toraoh first encounters Wataru as a rival, viewing him as a mortal enemy. As their rivalry unfolds, Toraoh undergoes significant development, gradually understanding friendship's true meaning. This evolution leads him to join Wataru in the final battle against his father and the Dragon of Darkness, shifting from antagonist to ally.

Toraoh's relationships are complex. He shares a profound bond with Himiko, who serves as his living emotional crutch during struggles. His presence significantly impacts others; a falsely reported death triggered unstoppable rage in Wataru, revealing their connection's depth. Kurama's death also deeply affected Toraoh, highlighting his capacity for emotional vulnerability.

In the OVA "The Never-Ending Tale of Time," Toraoh remains a key central figure within the narrative's exploration of friendship and conflict. His journey consistently reflects themes of redemption and trust's transformative power, moving from isolation and hostility to becoming an integral part of the heroic team.
