Makoto Midori

"Warning! The following Character Page contains spoilers for Northbound: The Chariot Girls." Makoto "Mako" Midori is one of the leading characters in Northbound: The Chariot Girls, and later, making an appearance in Abyssal Realm Of the Divines. Mako was formerly the sole heir to lead her father's dojo, one of the last remaining dojos that teaches a magically infused Old World technique, known as the Iaijutsu. While being a very capable mercenary within the Chariot Mercenary Guild, people tend to avoid her due to her monstrous strength. Being labeled as a freak and nicknamed as "The Beastly Butcher."

Being very careless about her future, Mako aims to seek a life of true freedom. Without the restraints of laws or rules that keep her bounded.

Her current ranking in the Guild is Dragoon. 

Appearance
Mako is a large, muscular woman with green hair that's tied up into a shoulder length, green pony tail with bangs covering the right side of her face. She has greenish skin with a lighter colored underside. She has prominently sharp teeth with inverted eyes and yellow pupils that give off a faint, bioluminescent glow. Mako has a large shark tail with a slightly damaged tail fin.

Personality
Mako is very vulgar and crass, and has a tendency to be very easy to anger. She doesn't care much about thinking things over, preferring to charge into things headfirst above all else. Her simplistic mindset can give off the impression of her being simple minded or even very reckless, but in reality while both are true, Mako revels in fighting and will resort to it above all else. Her aggressive nature, foul mouth, and bloodlust for battle makes her one of the least approachable members of Team Ruber due to how monstrous she can come off as.

Mako is constantly searching for worthy opponents to fight, constantly seeking out her need to grow stronger. She likes to boast about how skilled she is in her craft, often doing this as a way to seek out competition.

While Mako heavily dislikes thinking, her instincts are sharp and will usually know when she's bitten off more than she could chew. Her bloodlust is kept in check by Felicity and the other members of Team Ruber, keeping her grounded and not allowing her to succumb to her beastly instincts.

Unstable Magical Discharges
Mako was born with overflowing magical energy, energy she is unable to properly wield and fully control. Because of this, Mako does not understand her own strength, sometimes overcharging and amplifying the most mundane objects and causing them to explode due to the high influx of magical energy. This is mostly prevalent when she is angry or stressed, though Mako tends to be cautious in handling things because of this.

Enhancement and Reinforcing Magic
Knowing basic magical skills, Mako is able to utilize Enhancement and Reinforcement magic to an unquantifiable degree. Mako is able to amplify her body tenfold to withstand more damage, or amplifying her strength. If Mako is careful enough, she is able to reinforce any objects or weapons she's holding, making them practically unbreakable. Mako's results are not consistent however, due to her uncontrollable magical energy.

Sharpened Instincts
While being more animalistic in nature, Mako's instincts are much sharper than even her marksmen peers in Team Ruber. Her senses allow her to read the tide of the situation, and allowing her to act accordingly. She mainly uses her instincts to size up opponents she's facing, whether she's able to handle fighting them or being aware that they might be much stronger than her.
