'''Avenge''' (アベンジ), real name '''Kazuto Kotetsu''', is a bounty hunter working for the [[Magic Guild]] introduced in ''[[XBlaze Code: Embryo]]''. He used to be very close friends with [[Yuki Himezuru|Yuki Himezuru's]] parents.

==Appearance==
[[File:XBlaze Avenge Model Sheet 01.png|thumb|left|150px|Avenge's usual outfit]]Avenge is an older man with wavy black hair, gray eyes, a fair complexion, and rough facial hair. His physique is muscular and both of his arms are covered in thick scars, while his torso had one large scar that covers most of it. Avenge has a black t-shirt, black trousers tucked into brown boots, and black gloves with its wrists wrapped with white cloth. Over his shirt and trousers is a black harness; on his left shoulder are two small throwing knives and on his sides are holsters for his two curved knives, each having a brown sheathe and dark blades. Wrapped around his right thigh is another holster.


To be added.
Most of Avenge's outfit is obscured by a black poncho with a hood that covers his long hair. The back of the poncho is ripped and frayed.


==Personality==
==Personality==
Cool, calm, and stoic. Avenge is a man of few words, but when he talks, he is blunt and threatening; this does not mean he is heartless as he has repeatedly gone out of his way to help others. Towards targets he can be sarcastic but backs up his demeanor with considerable skill. Avenge is not a fan of those with weak convictions, and even less so of those who get in the way of a target, having slapped [[Touya Kagari]] for doing so.


To be added.
He was once close friends with the parents of [[Yuki Himezuru]] and has a deep seated hatred towards [[Ripper]] for murdering them. Yuki is the only person that Avenge trusts and the one person he warned when he believed that [[Shin Yokozaki City]] was headed towards a complete destruction. He promised her that he would stay in the city to protect her and her family.


==Biography==
==Powers & Techniques==
Despite being a completely normal human being incapable of using magic, Avenge is an exceptionally skilled fighter and bounty hunter that was strong enough to be recognized by the [[Magic Guild]]. He fights with knives enchanted to inflict wounds that cannot be healed with magic. Avenge is skilled enough to fight evenly with dangerous Unions like Ripper, having battled that particular Union multiple times and even repelling him on occasion - something not even most Unions are capable of. One testament to his strength was when Avenge bested Drei, one of the Ten Sages; although the mage was weakened at the time, he had abilities far and beyond that of most humans.


===Embryo Incident===
He only targets Unions for his bounties, meaning that Avenge has had a fair amount of experience against many unique opponents with various [[Drive|Drives]].
====Code: Embryo, Lost: Memories====


He first appears in the middle of a battle between [[Es]] and [[Ripper]], attacking Ripper. After Ripper escapes, he tells Touya Kagari, Es and [[Mei Amanohokosaka]] to leave Ripper to him and he’ll kill them if they get in his way. Touya approaches him, saying he has no right to threated people. but Avenge knocks him out for his trouble before leaving. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Episode 4''</ref>
==Official Profiles==
===''[[XBlaze Code: Embryo]]'' Character Report===


One night, he approaches [[Yuki Himezuru]] and says it’s been 10 years. He tells her to take her family and leave the city because something similar to “that day” will probably happen again before leaving. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Es & Hinata Route Episode 7''</ref>
;Avenge


Two days later he finds Ripper, who was extremely weakened due to the attack from Touya unleashing the [[Origin of the Grimoire]], in the sewers and attacks him. Ripper claims that he surrenders but tries to attack Avenge when he approaches. However, Avenge saw this coming and counters his attack before killing Ripper. At the docks, he talks to himself, telling Yuki he finally took care of Ripper. Remembering Yuki’s words that she will not leave the city he says that he will protect her family. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Es & Hinata Route Episode 8''</ref>
''An enigmatic bounty hunter focused on taking down Union-infected beings. Is in [[Shin Yokozaki City]] because of the presence of his latest target, Ripper. Though affiliated with the Magic Guild, he cannot use magic. However, his weapons are enchanted with a spell that prevents wounds inflicted with them from being healed with magic. Is somehow acquainted with Yuki Himezuru.'' <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Character Report''</ref>


Later he finds Touya and Es in the sewers and helps them escape from the [[Mitsurugi Agency|Mitsurugi Agency’s]] agents. Touya wants to know why Avenge is helping them and Avenge says it is because he felt like it. Touya thanks him but Avenge says he should be thanking Touya for allowing him to kill Ripper. Touya doesn’t know how to feel about Ripper being dead and Avenge says he is stronger then he seems. Avenge says that he is basically a serial killer who is no different than Ripper for hunting down and killing Unions but he can live with it as long as he is aware of it. He then tells Touya that, while he didn’t kill Ripper himself, it was his actions that led to Ripper’s death and he must accep that, with Touya saying yes. Avenge then asks Touya if he wants to know about his mother, [[Ryoko Kagari|Ryoko Kagari’s]], role in the [[Wadatsumi Incident]], even if he’d be better off knowing. Touya grabs Avenge and demands to know. Avenge tells Touya that the [[Takamagahara]] organization was forcing Touya’s mother to build the [[T-System]] and that the [[Embryo]] was meant to be its core. Touya is shocked that it means [[Souichiro Unomaru]] was doing as the [[Ten Sages]] said, which surprises Avenge that Unomaru is continuing Takamahagara’s research. Es then explains about the Embryo’s power to use [[Phenomenon Intervention]] and that with it it would be possible for the T-System to control the thoughts of everyone on the planet. Es says that the T-System would be impossible since they don’t have an energy source big enough for it but Touya realizes that they intend to use the [[Boundary]] and its infinite supply of [[seithr]]. Suddenly Es detects a large number of Mitsurugi Agency soldiers and Avenge tells them to go ahead while he deals with them. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Es & Hinata Route Episode 9''</ref> Avenge then saves Touya and Es from [[Drei|Drei’s]] attacks. He tells the two of them to leave Drei to him and run and that Mei will be waiting for them. After Touya and Es run off, Drei says he will deal with Avenge first at his leisure. Drei asks Avenge why he is attacking him even though Avenge only hunts down Unions, which Drei is not. Avenge is angry that the Magic Guild lied to him but Drei says it doesn’t change anything, and he will kill anyone who gets in Sechs’s way, calling Sechs the only “true” member of the Ten Sages. Avenge asks Drei why he is so obsessed with the Ten Sages and despite finding Drei’s intentions honorable, Avenge insists he will kill him. Drei then prepares to attack and Avenge says he’s much more powerful than anyone else he’s faced.
===''[[XBlaze Lost: Memories]]'' TIPS Entry===


After the battle, an injured Avenge remains in the sewers. He complains that Drei got away but figures that he only has a few minutes left based on his wounds. As he prepares to succumb to his wounds, he is approached by [[Ringo Akagi|Zwei]]. Zwei claims to just be a curry restaurant waitress but Avenge recognizes her and aks if she’s there to avenge Drei. Zwei says she wants to thank him and uses healing [[magic]] on him, but says that healing magic isn’t her specialialty so all she can do is patch him up. Avenge wants to know what she wants in exchange so Zwei asks him to protect Touya and his friends. Since they are about to attack the Mitsurugi Agency she wants him to clear out the foot soldiers. Avenge says that Zwei should be able to do that easily but she says she’s in hiding and that it’s not her fight. Avenge promises to repay his debt. Zwei offers to make him curry if he succeeds but he declines. <ref>''XBlaze Code: Embryo, Es Route Episode 10''</ref>
