LEVEL:
→ One

FORM:
→ Makoto uses a glove to create the initial friction by snapping or more often, a gun or lighter. The transmutation circle is integrated in his Yakuza tattoos that cover his entire back and parts of his chest.
→ The Alkahestric Pentagram is found in the Yakuza tattoo.
→ Transmutation circles form on people or himself.
→ The transmutation circle is located also in the tattoo.
→ The Alkahestric Pentagram is found in the Yakuza tattoo.



BRIEFING:

→ Makoto needs to know the fact that it isn't raining and how much oxygen is in the air. If it is raining, however he also has the option of using a lighter or a gun.

→ It's not an alchemic circle, therefore it utilizes the Dragon's Pulse with a pentagram. Mako has to know the full layout of the human body and stay concentrated enough to focus his energy into changing the small sinews of color within himself and others.

→ Mako can easily draw alchemic circles onto people's skin within his vicinity, however, it takes great focus in order to activate the circles on everyone's bodies. He uses his own energy from the movement of the continental plates and thrusts it into all of their circles. By combining the contradictory symbols of the sun and moon, gold and silver, water and fire, he creates an unstable imbalance of energy in the person, causing them to explode violently. He must be able to embrace the imbalance himself and to understand the outward blast and inward rejection of said energy. He can also form the circles on any part of his own body except for his arms/hands that is touching anything and make the inanimate object explode as well. To do that, he has to embrace the same imbalance and channel it through the opposite circles.

→ Mako has to be able to focus his attention onto one direct point to heaten as well as increase the oxygen levels around said point.

→ Mako must be able to understand the entire blood system within the human body so as to activate the heart and force blood to pump into muscles so it appears that a dead body is actually alive. This instantly drains his own energy as well as his access to the Dragon's Pulse, thus making it nearly impossible to animate more than five dead bodies at a time.

SPECIAL ABILITIES:

→ Fire: When Makoto snaps his fingers or fires his gun to create friction, he creates a small spark that is enough to ignite fire, which he then controls in spirals through the oxygen in the air. He can use this to light his foes aflame, but it will not work efficiently in the rain even with a lighter.

→ Pigment (Alkahestry): Makoto uses a tattoo of the Dragon's Pulse pentagon on his back to manipulate his own body. What he does is utilize the hidden energy flowing from the earth to evolve the pigment in his eyes, hair, and/or skin. He does this in order to masquerade as a normal citizen rather than...a Yakuza and to change himself for disguise. By evolving the pigment with the energy, he is capable of changing the color to anything he consciously desires pertaining to himself and only himself. But upon intensive discovery, Mako found he could also change other's pigment within about a quarter of a mile from himself, but they have to be touching the ground. Everyone in the distance, regardless of their sum, can have their appearance changed just like himself. He could draw tattoos on them or anything of the sort without them really realizing what was happening. Needless to say, Makoto had a lot of fun playing with this especially with himself when going into 'yakuza mode' whereas he changes his hair to blond and his eyes to orange, spiking it up with gel and whipping out the big guns. Then, in seconds, he can go back to just being a normal guy with brown hair and brown eyes.

→ Explosion (Alchemy): Seeing as Makoto can change other people's pigment from a distance, using the Dragon's Pulse, he has found that he can tattoo images onto them as well. This includes transmutation circles. Because of this find, he began studying more alchemy as well, wondering if he would even be able to perform it. He copied the circles from a man of history named Solf J. Kimblee. These two circles were completely opposite in content, therefore when they were activated together (whether clapped into one another or not), they clashed into an explosion. In simple terms, Mako can form both the transmutation circles onto people around him, activate them, and watch as their system rejected the energy and explode. He can also do such with inanimate objects, but forming the circles on himself where he is touching said object. As long as he isn't picturing himself exploding instead of the object, he is safe.

→ Hell Fire: By rubbing his hands together, the high friction is multiplied by the tattoo on his back, creating an intense heat. This heat is then directed at a certain object within sight. By increasing the oxygen levels surrounding the said object, the heat can reach such a degree that it bursts into fire or melts. It also depends on the object, but the temperature around the concentrated area can ascend to such heights that the ground itself bubbles, cracks, etc.

→ Animating the Dead: After a victim is killed, it's sort of boring, you know? It's like coming home after a day at the amusement park to an empty home painted in all white. Therefore, Mako came up with a way to pump blood into the dead person's body using the energy from the dragon pulse. In order to accomplish such an excruciating feat, he must be completely focused on the dead body and able to envision the still heart beating life into the cold veins. The heart starts up, the blood rushes through, but this only works for people freshly dead and still containing enough blood to pump. In essence, the body lives while the soul has already gone. Once the blood is pumping, the muscles should be somewhat able to function enough to unconsciously control the victim's limbs. Now, the dead are clumsy and if Mako slips up even slightly in his focus, the energy will stop flowing into the heart, and stop possessing the muscles. That's why afterward, he is usually rather disoriented himself. Also, dead bodies are klutzy and pretty much stumble around and flail if Mako isn't completely precise with each twitch of every muscle. He cannot make the dead talk, but he can make them blink, point to things, write sloppily, etc. Enough to get the message across. When he cuts off his alkahestry, the poor dead person re-dies.
