Makalov Artemi

"Well well, fiesty one too. But the fire school isn't to be taken lightly. Let's see how you fair against a 5th seat!"

~Makalov Artemi, in "The battle of Nen" Makalov was the 5th seat of the fire academy. He was an exremely arrogant human fighter from the town of Bastol, Vullo Idem. He was killed by Xenia Athencross.

Personality
Makalov was shown to be an arrogant fighter. He had much pride in his abilities, shown when he scoffed at Xenia even being able to injure him. He also had a sadistic side, apparent when he claimed he would "toy" with Xenia.

Abilities
As the 5th seat in the fire academy, Makalov boasts high levels of skill and stamina.

Taijutsu Practitioner: Makalov used taijutsu in conjunction with his sword to slay enemies. He had enough physical strength to knock Xenia back with just the strength he had on his sword swing.

Kenjutsu Practitioner: He used a sword know as the "flame sword". When carrying it, it takes the shape of a normal sword handle. This sword used fire magic to solidify flames into a blade.
 * Flame protrusion: When grabbing the pommel of the sword he could expel the solid blade into the origional flames, taking enemies by surprise.

Battle of Nen Arc
Makalov was one of the fire school students that traveled to Nen to attack. Later he is seen through the gate Xenia opens with the second stone. The two other, lower ranking students were taken out by Xenia's knives first. After scoffing off the attacker Makalov unleashed his flame sword and attacks Xenia. She manages to use her Outrage Wave technique to keep him at bay. After getting struck by the projectile technique Makalov attacks Xenia using a combination of slashes and flame protrusion. When Xenia learned this pattern she kept using her technique, keeping him back. After getting extremely over cocky, Makalov let his defenses down, and Xenia spewed profanity at him, after using her Outrage Wave to finish him off.
