Souichiro Unomaru

""I want nothing more than prosperity for all mankind. A goal I work hard every day to achieve.""

Souichiro Unomaru (鵜丸総一朗), also known under the alias TC, is one of the main antagonists in XBlaze Code: Embryo. He is the head of the Mitsurugi Agency branch in Shin Yokozaki City and in charge of all Union-related activity. He attempted to complete the T-System to take control of the thoughts of all of humanity to direct them towards an ideal future.

Appearance
A fair-skinned, skinny man with baby-blue hair and yellow eyes. Souichiro wears a black button-up shirt with a turtleneck collar and keeps his black suit trousers up with white suspenders. Over his shirt is a large white overcoat which has golden studs and buttons, and a popped collar. From the back of this jacket is a long white scarf which is tied at the end; Souichiro also wears matching white shoes and small glasses with white frames.

When swimming, Souichiro only wears his scarf and small white swimming briefs that has a pattern of blue stars. Five years prior to Code: Embryo, Souichiro wore a similar attire, except he did not wear his scarf and had a long white lab jacket instead of his overcoat. He also wore gray trousers, black shoes, and had longer hair that was tied back into a ponytail.

Personality
To most people, Souichiro appears as an eccentric scientist with a keen interest in fashion. He is always smiling and exhibits a playful attitude when it concerns work related matters. Owing to his interest in fashion, Souichiro would pick outfits for Es and Mei Amanohokosaka to wear while they were under his command. His relationship with Mei was rocky at best, in part thanks to him treating her like a child and his eccentric behaviour.

Souichiro's philosophy was to create peace through complete control of the masses. He wants to strip free will from everyone to prevent crimes and create a kind of hive-mind. His obsession with this goal led to an attraction towards the Embryo, thus he created Es just to contain it. Even though he had created a new life, he thought little of her since she was initially a failure upon her creation. Most of Souichiro's beliefs stem back to when he was 14 and watched his neglectful parents kill one another, an event which only made him laugh in insanity. To achieve his goal of world-peace, Souichiro is willing to cross any moral line.

Powers and Abilities
Souichiro's only notable ability is his scientific genius. He is the creator of the TOi system, a popular news and social app, and the creator of both Es and the Es-N. All Prime Field Interference Manifestation artificial humans were made by Souichiro, as was the T-System, a device which allows for Phenomenon Intervention when an Embryo is inserted into it.
