Makoto Nagaikawa

Height: 160 cm
Weight: 56.6kg
Build: Athletic
DoB: 15th of December

Childhood friends with Suzhua Jackson

The son of an German-born Italian Fencer, Matilda Schwarz, and Japanese Biathlete Washi Nagaika, Makoto has inherited his german looks from his mother and his temperment from his father. Makoto is a calm, friendly individual, and easy to approach, although many find him hard to read. While Makoto does his best to at least get along with the majority of those he meets, there are very few that he counts as allies or friends.

Obsessed with Germanic legends of heroes and magic, as a child Makoto styled himself as a hero, fighting against evil and injustice. While he became more level headed as he aged, Makoto still does his best to stand for and protect those that he believes could use his help.

Makoto practices a style of the Italian School of Fencing using a sword and cape, having been taught from an early age by his mother. Unhesitant to use his knowledge of combat, Makoto often finds himself standing up for and helping others (often with Suzhua).

Makoto stands about 1.6 meters tall, with a handsome features, blueish black hair and icy blue eyes.

His save DC modifier cannot be reduced below +0 and his attack bonus cannot more than double. The changes to attack and save DC modifier are declared before he makes the attack roll and lasts until his next round. All-Out Attack: Makoto may reduce his defense bonus by up to -4, to add the same amount as a bonus to his save DC. Assessment: As a move action, Makoto can use Sense Motive vs. Bluff to 'size up' opponents to gauge their strengths. A successful use provides the opponent's attack and defense bonuses relative to Makoto's own (higher, lower, or equal). Other uses would be up to GM discretion. Defensive Attack: When Makoto makes an attack he can take a penalty of up to –5 on his attack bonus and add the same number (up to +5) as a dodge bonus to his defense. Makoto's attack bonus cannot be reduced below +0 and his dodge bonus cannot more than double. The changes to attack and dodge bonus last until his next action. Dodge Focus 2: +2 to Defense as long as he can move, already worked into math. Elusive Target: While fighting an opponent in melee combat, others attempting to target Makoto with ranged attacks are at a –8 penalty rather than the usual –4 penalty for shooting into melee combat. Evasion 2: No damage on a successful Reflex save, half damage on failures Equipment: Used to purchase a Cellphone/PDA and Chainmail Follow Up Strike: If Makoto scores a critical hit with a melee attack, he can make an additional melee attack against the same opponent immediately as a free action, with the same attack bonus as the attack that scored the critical hit. Improved Block 3: Makoto has a +6 bonus on attack rolls to block melee attacks. If you can block ranged attacks, your Improved Block bonus does not apply to those block rolls, which are improved seperately by adding power ranks. Improved Critical (Gram's Strike): Makoto's critical threat range with a particular attack (Gram's Strike attack) is increased, allowing Makoto to score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20. Improved Disarm 3: Makoto has a +6 bonus (+2 per rank) on attack rolls when attempting to disarm an opponent and they do not get the opportunity to disarm him. Improved Initiative 2: Makoto has a +8 to initiative. Jack-of-All-Trades: Makoto may use any skill check untrained. Stunning Attack: When Makoto makes a damaging melee attack, his can choose not to inflict normal damage. Instead, the target makes a Fortitude save against a DC of 10 plus his damage bonus. A successful save results in no effect, a failed save means the target is dazed for one round. Failure by 5 or more means the target is stunned for one round, and failure by 10 or more means the target is unconscious. Precise Shot (with Gram's Blitzgriff (Blast)): When Makoto makes a ranged attack using Gram's Blitzgriff on an opponent engaged in melee with his allies, he reduces the attack roll penalty by 4. This eliminates the normal –4 penalty, and reduces the penalty for Elusive Target to –4. Quick Draw: Makoto can draw or load a weapon as a free action, rather than a move action. He can only do one of these things as a free action each round; the others remain move actions as normal. Uncanny dodge: As long as Makoto's sight could inform him, he retains his dodge bonus even if surprised or flat-footed. 25 PP
