BACKGROUND


Born in the Torii base of the US army, Kyoya is the second military brat of a family that
counts three children. As far as he can remember, he was always sensitive when it comes to
supernatural phenomenons, feeling things not meant to be felt, hearing noises that should
not be, etc... But never, he let it get in his way to enjoy life as it came to him.
He earned average grades during his school days but soon bored with the japanese life, he takes
training courses as scuba diver to work in various oceanographic expeditions.
In Spring 2010, he joined an american oceanographic expedition as soon as the opportunity
came to him.

In Spring 2011 (MC 71, A's epilogue), the american expedition has gone to Southern Atlantic
ocean to investigate the source of the "Bloop", this is here that his life has changed.
Indeed his submarine experienced a malfunction and began to sink, dragging him down to his
death.

But, much against his expectations, his life was saved by an unknown force. All it started
when he heard an ethereal voice. Realizing that it is the same thing as a telepathic call,
he instinctively replied and was engulfed by a sphere of light that brought him to the bottom
of the ocean where a structure was lying, concealed from the sight of men and their machines.
The light have then drawn him and his machine inside the structure, and he found himself alone
in a pitch black room that looked like it was the inside of an unknown beast. He then wandered
through corridors until he stumbled upon a structure looking like the equivalent of an egg-like
life support pod. Within the "egg", an humanoid form was floating, and much to Kyoya's surprise,
it was a female humanoid. The contact of Kyoya with the pod awakened the humanoid from a very
long slumber. She laid her eyes on the human, answered his silent request to save him by
repairing Kyoya's submarine, using powers that appeared as magical to KYoya, then she
fainted. The use of her powers after her slumber was exhausting. Kyoya then decides to take
her to his submarine. As if the structure was alive and self-aware, it cast a light around
Kyoya's machine and teleported him back to the surface.

It was his first contact with the alien who would be his companion for his future
adventures: Ynana, the last of an extinct alien race known as Aninaku. His encounter
with the alien would be the beginning of troubles, because a secret society, named the
Archons, wanted to get their hands on Ynana. Cornered and about to get shot, Kyoya was
forced to make a life contract with Ynana who chose him as her guardian and awakened
the linker core that was left dormant in his body.
After he gained his new powers, he disposed of the people who pursued him and began a
clandestine life with Ynana. He lived with her, in thailand, under fake identities given
by the thai mob, making a living of tuk-tuk driving, and smuggling of archeological items.
It was a peaceful life, where Kyoya became friend with a young thai girl named Pranee,
who acted pretty much like a sister for Ynana.

It could have gone well, but Ynana showed signs that she was weakening during the spring
of 2012.
First, her alien organism was not fully protected against terran diseases, malaria being
the one that struck her.
Second, she has a symbiotic bound with the same structure where she was found, a spaceship
that crashed in the ocean during the last ice age. Kyoya has to find a way to sail to the
spot of ocean where he found her. This means risking to be discovered by the Archons who
were tracking them down. He took the risk, and they came, to take Ynana with them. Not the
wisest decision, as he experienced despair and thirst for revenge for the first time of his
life.
Ynana having given him the powers and the weapons, Kyoya swore to track down those who laid
their hands on Ynana. And worse should she die.

In his quest, regarding his powers, he went overboard, enough to be spotted by the TSAB
who sent the people who knew the most about Earth, the three Aces, and the Volkenritten.
Then a cat and mouse game started between the Aces, Kyoya and the secret society that
abducted Ynana. Needless to say that the rivalry, bitter at that time because of Kyoya's
rage and despair, was mostly to be blamed on misunderstanding.
This hide and seek game hit its climax right after Kyoya found Ynana who was on the verge
of death, on a remote island of the Atlantic ocean belonging to the archons. This event,
not helped by the fact that Kyoya was about to experience his own Bolivian Army Ending at
the hand of the Archons just when he cleared up the misunderstanding with the Aces,
triggered in Ynana an intense will to live and not die, and awakened the AI of her ship
to full activity.

Drawn by its mistress' distress, the ship rose from the depth of ocean and flew over the
island, hiding its presence by cloaking and jamming most of the electronic detection
systems in a 50 km radius, and unleashed what appeared to be combat drones to wreck havoc.
The ship, acting like a lioness fighting to protect her cub, went berserk, forcing the
Aces to deal with the drones gone amok. It needed the cooperation of Reinforce II with
a weak Ynana to dive within the matrix of the ship's AI and bring the AI back to its
senses, befriending being the shorter story.

The incident being over, the Aces offered Kyoya and Ynana to become contract mages as a
mean to "pay back" for the troubles they unwillingly raised. Kyoya saw the opportunity to
discover new horizons along with Ynana and her ship, and agreed.

Later, Parinya would join them, along with a friend of her, Antigone. Together, they will
form an exploration and recon unit named "The Conquistadores".

While they are officially a recon unit, patrolling in the borders of the TSAB's sphere
of influence, they are under the control of Admiral Chrono. There are some reasons
they are sent in the recon and exploration missions. First, it was Ynana's will
who wanted to forget about what brought her on Earth. Secondly, Kyoya is not
disciplined enough to be a functional soldier. Finally, female members of TSAB
has filled complaints against Kyoya for his behavior toward the female gender.
It may be harmless, and fun for male outsiders, but have proven to be an hinderance
for the good functioning of the TSAB.

Spoiler for magic and combat style:

POWER

Kyoya is of the short-to-middle range offensive class. His magic spells are mostly
used for offensive purposes, especially rushing attacks with occasional ranged bursts
to fill the gap between his opponents and him.
His mage rank is AA.

His Intelligent Device comes in the form of a wrist watch in its sealed form. When it
is activated, it becomes a pair of two large armored red arm protections covering his
arms from the tip of his fingers to his shoulders; it has three black cogwheels on the
arm area that spins when Kyoya power up his attacks and two pairs of what would look
like dual exhaust pipes (it apparently help Kyoya into collecting wasted magical energy
or expel the exceeding one). It speak english like Raging Heart and Bardiche.

DEFENSIVE ABILITIES

* Barrier Jacket: From bottom to top. As barrier jacket Kyoya wears a pair of japanese
style leg protections over white baggy trousers with flashy flames printings from the
knee area to mid-thighs. Around his waist, a large metallic belt with a flaming eagle
belt buckle is tightened. His red jacket is opened but too small to cover his muscular
chest and six-pack. To complete the barrier jacket, Kyoya wear a red headband.

* Safety Field: The bread and butter autocast protection shield, similar to Fate's and
Nanoha's Protection. Giving an all-around protection but easily penetrated.

* Blazing Targe: Coming in the form of a fire round shield, it help Kyoya to withstand
any prolonged attack but can only protect from one direction.

* Backdraft Dash: It gives Kyoya the ability to fly while increasing his speed. And it
leaves funky fire trails like the De Lorean time machine from Back to the Future movies.

* Firestorm Burst: Kyoya uses a combination of the air oxygen and wasted magical energy
to create a fire detonation around him to repel an attack.

* Ifrit Seal: Kyoya's own take on binding spells. Not different from the Aces'.

* Breakout: Kyoya's way to deal with binding spells. How long it will take depend on
the complexity of the binding spell.


OFFENSIVE ABILITIES

* Salamander Blast: Kyoya's quick reaction spell. It comes as a short-to-middle range
fire blast coming from Dynamite Crusher, acting like a shotgun blast. It's shot while
Kyoya punch forward.

* Salamander Blast Uppercut: Kyoya's melee variation of Salamander Blast. Done with an
hopping uppercut maneuver.

* Crossfire Cutter: One of Kyoya's melee attacks. He crosses his arms while raising
over his head or lowering them below his waist then he perform a diagonal double arm
swipe that create a x-shaped fire attack that can cut through barriers like butter.
It's short-ranged. Its versatility allow Naoya to use it during most of Naoya melee
maneuvers, be it dashing, or jumping.

* Napalm Maelstrom: Kyoya's other melee-based attack. He clasp his hands together
while spinning and charging forward like a human torpedo, coiled in drill-like
trails of fire.

* Napalm Maelstrom Driver: Variation of Napalm Maelstorm. Its a grappling technique
involving Kyoya grabbing his foe then diving downward upside down while spiralling
in flames and crash onto the ground. If done on the ground, Kyoya first take off with
his opponent in his grip before diving down.

* Hellbaze Machine Gun: Kyoya's device's cogwheels spins so fast it create flames,
as Kyoya charges forward while litterally hammering the foe with a barrage of
punches. Its purpose is to shut down barrier jackets or knock down the opponent.
Or plain destroy the most dangerous enemies. It's motly his finishing move in
melee range, and it takes a very heavy toll on Kyoya's stamina, leaving him
completely exhausted and unable to defend.

* Gehenna Storm: Kyoya spreads his arms while the cogwheels of his device spins at
their maximum speed, while the pipes collect energy around them. As he power up, Kyoya
rears back then he lunges forward while thrusting his both arms forward, unleashing
a large twirling firebeam that can hold the comparison's with Nanoha's Divine Napalm.

Spoiler for Fluffy stuff:

TRIVIA

After having been befriended, Kyoya has been trained by Nanoha. It was one of
the hardest and troublesome students that Nanoha ever has. It was mostly
because Kyoya was easily distracted by Nanoha's assets. One of the other reasons
could be a complex drawn by the fact that Nanoha is not only younger, but also more
powerful than Kyoya. Something he often dispelled by his Don Juan and borderline
clown behavior.

He has tried many times to get a date with Fate, many of his tries met comically
epic failures.

Hayate looked like his younger sister, Isuzu. As a result, there are a sibling-like
relationship between the both of them. He once jokingly said they were competiting
over who would get the biggest harem. To this statement, Hayate replied that if
it was a harem competition, he should have gotten males as reversed mirror of her
own harem.

Signum was the one of the Wolkenritten who gave him the most trouble, as she was
the knight who forced Kyoya to resort to his Hellblaze Machine Gun, leaving him
open to Nanoha and Fate combined attacks and resulting in the befriending.
It didn't stop the both of them to feel a mutual respect.

He often made fun of Vita's permaloli appearance.

When the opportunity arise, he fake wounds or sickness to get in Shamal's office,
results get ugly for Kyoya as he was going borderline on harassement.

He always forget that Zafira has a wolf form, or the other way around.

He have as much consideration for Rein Zwei as he has for a Furby.

He consider Subaru as a long lost sister because of their near similarities in
styles.

His success to score with Teana has the same success rate as walking on the edge
of the crater of a volcano without falling in the lava, blindfolded and drunk.

He often commented Erio and Caro relationship as cute kindergarten romance.

Ginga is another of his targets, and met the same failures.




INSPIRATIONS

- Take Sanada Yukimura from Capcom's Sengoku Basara series in term of character
template and barrier jacket's design, add a twist of Ryo Saeba and Cobra for the
playful womanizer yet still competent as a fighter, a spoonful Sieger Neinhalt from
Samurai Shodown 2 for the Device design, you have Kyoya Kibagami.

- Salamander Blast = Captain Commando = Captain Fire from Marvel vs Capcom games.

- Crossfire Cutter is a nod to Souther's Nanto Oou Ken from Fist of the North Star
attacks.

- Napalm Maelstrom = Bison's Psycho Crusher.

- Napalm Maelstrom Driver = Hattori Hanzo's pile driver throw from Samurai Shodown.

- Hellblaze Machine Gun = Kenshiro's Hokuto Hyakuretsuken. He even does the famous
"Atatatatatatatatatatatatatata" while doing this move. That's Akira Kamiya for you.

- Geghenna Storm = Wolfgang Krauser's Kaiser Wave + random beam super.

- As for the backstory, the Archons, something like the Templar Knigths and the Rosicrucians.
