Kamen Rider Kabuto
He is a 20-year old man and descendant of the Discabil family of England. He calls himself "the man who swings a sword in the name of God" when he introduces himself. He lives in a gorgeous European-style building with his butler Jiiya. Tsurugi is good at sports, art, study, and many other skills, and has been seen to be able to understand and speak French, Chinese, and Italian in addition to English (he says "Shall we?" to Tendou when a fencing duel begins) and Japanese (although he mispronounces "ramen" as "La Men" and thinks that it is a French dish as well as some other words such as "tofu" as "tufu").

He always calls Kagami his friend (while pronouncing his name KaGAmin, stressing the GA in his name and adding an affectionate -n at the end) and Misaki as "Misakinu". Tsurugi wants to be the man who is best at everything, always saying, "I will stand on top of… (e.g. tasting, kendo, bowling etc.)". Unlike Tendou who quotes his grandmother, Tsurugi quotes his butler, Jiiya instead.

When the altered timeline starts disappearing, and the various Riders return to existence, Scorpio Worm fights against Kamen Rider Kabuto only to be easily defeated. Afterwards, during the final battle against the Rock Great Leader, Kamen Rider Sasword returns to help the heroes as part of the reinforcements led by Kamen Rider Birth.

Kamen Rider Kabuto : God Speed Love
In the alternate timeline where the meteor that strikes Shibuya had turn the Earth partially into a barren wasteland and drying the whole sea in the process instead of turning into small fragments and crashed the city, ZECT was formed where their mission was to save humanity by exterminating the threat of Worms. Sasword was seen among the ZECT Riders (save Kabuto) fighting the Salis Worms colonies before all of them being surrounded. It was unknown what happened to him afterwards since he didn't appear when the ZECT and Neo-ZECT members fight but it can be concluded that he died during one of his battles against the Worms or he quit his duty as a Kamen Rider.

Scorpio Worms

- Height : 225cm
- Weight : 137kg
- Tsurugi's alter ego/true form, the Scorpio Worm is the Worm that killed Tsurugi Kamishiro and his sister.
- Moments before Tsurugi died, the Worm decided to mimic the dying man.
- However, Tsurugi's personality was able to overpower and suppress his Worm heart.
- This leads to a sort of split-personality forming, with the Scorpio Worm being completely aware of Tsurugi, but Tsurugi only remembering that the Scorpio Worm killed his sister.
- That is, until, episode 46, when he remembers/discovers he is a Worm, causing him to lose his resolve, and go on a rampage as the Scorpio Worm.
- However, Tsurugi's personality still remained dominant, as he stayed true to himself and let himself be defeated by Hyper Kabuto's Maximum Hyper Typhoon. He later died in his human form after talking to Jiiya.
- It is also revealed that the Scorpio Worm's stingers can force Worms to return to their human forms, as demonstrated upon the Clipeus's.
- Even without this ability, the Scorpio Worm is extremely formidable, taking down lesser worm with ease. Making him as dangerous as Executive Worms.
