Strengths:

• Very knowledgeable, he does nothing but fight Horrors and read books
  
• Cares deeply for both Jabi and Rin
  

Weaknesses:

• Willing to sacrifice himself for the two
  
• Due to the time limit on the armor, it is a last resort
  

Goal(s):

• Protect Rin and Jabi
  

Habits/ Quirks:

• Flicks Zaruba whenever he gets annoying

Relationships:

• Jabi- His companion and on-call Priestess
  
• Rin- Almost views her as a daughter
  
• Retsu, Rose- Fellow Makai Knights
  
• Amon- An older Priest, a father figure
  
• Gonza- His manservant, another father figure
  

Overview: Takato is not exactly what you would call a conversationalist. He prefers to allows his actions to speak as opposed to his words, and has never really developed the skill of small talk. He tries not to forge relationships with anyone outside of the Order, as it would both compromise his work and make it hard if, say, someone he knew were to be stained with the blood of a Horror, to kill them. He will lay down his life to defend Rin and/or Jabi, however.

Takato's father, as tradition dictates, was the previous GARO. When he was a very young child, he would often play with an equally young Jabi, but when he turned 7, his father ended that practice and began teaching him to inherit the title of GARO. Takato dutifully attended his training, learning quite quickly. However, a year later, his father left in the night while Takato slept, to go fight a Horror. Unfortunately, it was a trap, and 10 Horrors ambushed his father and killed him. The next morning, Priest Amon arrived with Zaruba and the Garoken, explaining what had happened. Takato cried for weeks, until Amon told him it was no use crying. After that, Takato began training himself to take up the role.
When he was 15, he killed his first Horror. Also around that time, Jabi returned from Kantai. Amon took her in, completing her training. Both Takato and Jabi finished their respective training at 16, and Amon left them to their own devices. Jabi chose to stay with Takato, to help him in case he needed a Priestess's services, and also for other reasons she wasn't comfortable disclosing. He continued doing his job and doing it well, claiming his 100th Horror by 19 and passing the trial to earn the right to summon Gouten soon afterward. He visited Amon on the special night and played bar chess with the old man, not finishing the game before the sun rose. Two weeks afterward, Jabi found Amon murdered.
Takato simply chose to continue on, but Jabi found herself unable to and returned to Kantai for a time. Takato continued his duties, until about 3 years later, when he received a letter from Jabi that they needed men to defend Kantai against an attack. Takato journeyed there immediately, working with the local Priests, who had called him there because DAN, their resident Knight, was absent. He didn't mind, and led the defense. Many Priests died, including one Tsubasa Yamagatana, whose younger sister Rin had taken a shine to Jabi. Sensing that there was nothing left for her to do in Kantai, she left with Takato, but about halfway, discovered that Rin had tagged along for the ride. After a stern moment, Jabi agreed to be Rin's teacher is Tsubasa's "absence". They returned home, and life has been relatively normal for the past few years.

Sample RP: "No, Jabi, I am not going to allow you to buy cookies. And ice cream. And two full size cookie cakes." Takato said with a note of exasperation in his voice after reading the list.
"It's preparation, in case of emergency." Jabi said. Rin, who was standing next to her, nodded.
"What emergency? Are we going to have to fend off a rabid Cookie Monster sometime soon? I wouldn't put it past the Horrors, but still." Takato replied.
"Takato..." Jabi said threateningly.
"Jabi, I kill monsters from your darkest nightmares on a nightly basis. You don't scare me." Takato replied evenly.
Jabi looked like she wanted to say something, but paused.
"Check and mate. I win." Takato replied, pulling out his Lighter and burning the list in a flash of green fire.
