Characters

Jack Smith is the protagonist of Blood Destiny, and a Lieutenant-ranked fighter in the organization Olympia. He is an aspiring warrior with dreams of becoming the strongest in the world, and he sees his occupation as an Olympian mercenary as a way to increase his battle prowess and eventually allow him to achieve that goal. He is a "Synchronizer" that wields sophisticated weaponry powered by the exposed mana circuits in his arms for both close and mid-ranged combat.

Due to his confident (and somewhat reckless) nature, he will often charge directly into the fray in order to defeat as many opponents as possible, even if it places him in a compromising position. He takes great pride in his skills in battle, and will even keep track of the number of enemies he has slain so that he can gloat about his accomplishments to others.

Six years ago, Jack survived an attack by a group of vampires in his hometown. He nearly died as a result of this experience, but was saved a mysterious woman shrouded in light, who quickly eliminated the vampires who were attempting to kill him. He lost consciousness shortly after she rescued him, and woke up in an Olympian hospital. The image of that woman has been etched into his memories ever since, and he wonders if he will ever see her again.

Fuyumi Tomoe is a Commander-ranked fighter in the organization Olympia, and the commanding officer of Jack Smith. She is extremely powerful, even by meta-human standards, and is feared throughout the world as the "Ice Demon". Among all humans in the world, her strength is believed to be ranked within the top twenty.

Fuyumi usually seems like a cold and unapproachable individual, but she reveals her softer side whenever she is around her younger sister, Koyuki. She has a complex relationship with her father, who views her as a "failure" despite her great talents due to the comparatively far greater potential of her younger sister.

She always seeks out the most powerful opponents, with the intention of defeating them and proving to herself (and to her father) that she is somebody whose strength deserves acknowledgement.

Lionhart Freeman is a popular Commander within the organization Olympia, and a good friend of Jack Smith. While Fuyumi Tomoe is serious and reserved, Lionhart in contrast is very laid-back and easygoing. He enjoys conversing with others, and will often banter with Jack outside of missions. He leads a squad of three, which comprises of Denzel Gray, Ophelia Snow, and Naomi Ito.

He picked up his carefree attitude from his late wife Talia Freeman, who was the type of person to always think optimistically and smile, no matter the circumstance. After failing to save her from a demon, Lionhart joined Olympia, vowing to save as many people as he possibly could with his own strength, so that no one would ever experience the sorrow that he felt that day.

Denzel Gray is one of the three subordinates serving underneath Lionhart Freeman, and is an Ensign-ranked mercenary who excels in close-ranged combat. He possesses great physical strength and an abundance of ki energy, and he makes the most of these attributes by wielding heavy gauntlets to dish out powerful physical blows on his opponents.

Denzel is a hot-headed and brash individual whose recklessness rivals even Jack Smith's. He is proud of his strength and will often challenge Jack Smith to compete against him in various ridiculous (and often comedic) contests of physical prowess. While he often bickers with Jack, he does secretly admire him and views him as a rival to eventually surpass. He is secretly in love with fellow teammate Ophelia Snow but has yet to reveal his feelings for her.

Ophelia Snow is one of the three subordinates serving underneath Lionhart Freeman, and is a Lieutenant-ranked mercenary who specializes in scouting and magic casting. She has special eyes that can be imbued with mana to greatly enhance her visual prowess. Formerly a resident of the isolated supernation of Arc Novelia, she joined Olympia in order to learn about the battle-oriented magic used by its mercenaries, as well as its usage of synchronization to awaken dormant mana circuits within human bodies.

Ophelia is a polite and kind-hearted young woman, but she is also quite timid and lacking in self-confidence. Her teammates Naomi Ito and (especially) Denzel Gray dote on her and are quite protective of her as a result. She wishes to overcome her personal insecurities and looks up to Jack Smith due to his unwavering confidence and desire to grow stronger.

Naomi Ito is one of the three subordinates serving underneath Lionhart Freeman, and is a Lieutenant-ranked mercenary who specializes in long-ranged combat. Like Jack Smith, she is a "Synchronizer" who wields a sniper rifle powered by the mana circuits in her right arm (though unlike Jack, she prefers not to show off the exposed mana circuits of her right arm). She is also quite proficient with a katana for close quarters combat.

Naomi has a sarcastic and condescending attitude and gets easily irritated by the antics of Jack Smith and her teammate Denzel Gray. She will often berate them and make snark remarks towards them every time they do things that she views as foolish. In contrast, however, she acts kindly and more understanding towards her other teammate, Ophelia Snow, who Naomi views as someone that needs to be protected.

She is of noble descent, and was born into a wealthy family situated within the Kyoudan Empire. She is currently estranged from her parents, who had arranged for her (against her will) to get married to a high ranking officer within the Kyoudan Empire's military force. Naomi ended up running away from home in order to avoid that fate. She has not spoken to any member of her family for several years.
