Daichi Katchu

"We may face an overwhelming opponent. That's why I decided... If they're ever about to break, I'll be their splint. If they're ever in danger, I'll be their shield. I'll always put myself on the line to protect my teammates. That's what I came back for."

- Daichi Katchu

Daichi Katchu is one of the founding members of the Black and White Squadron and is its second in command. His strong will has given him the nickname Iron Heart Daichi

Appearance
Daichi has a large and tall body standing at 6 feet 4 inches. He has medium length brown hair and a handsome face with dark brown eyes and thick eyebrows. His hands are larger than average easily able to completely grab a person's head and his long legs allow him much mobility. He normally wears a sleeveless shirt that's black and white in color with red borders along with a black pair of pants.

Personality
Daichi is a kind and mature person who always cares about the well being of those around him. His personality can even calm Aivenna when she's angry. These traits along with great charisma also give him the qualities of a leader which is why he's second in command of the squadron. In fact, Shiro stated that Daichi was more suited to be the leader and offered the position to him which was humbly refused. His intelligence level is equal to that of Shiro's and he always plots something for the good of the team. Shiro's the only one who's really noticed this and says "Even though it looks like he's joking around, before you know it, you're doing things his way."

In combat, he has a calm and unwavering serious looking demeanor that shows he's ready all the time. He does this so he can never worry his teammates which he thinks of fondly and he'll whatever he can to protect them.

History
Besides Shiro's father, Daichi was Shiro's first tutor with mechanics and magical syntaxes and Shiro looked up to him like an older brother of sorts. When Shiro became one of the 12 Norvino Knights, Daichi whole heartedly congratulated him and later became the first recruit of Shiro's squadron. He was there for the recruitment of all of the current member and was like the strong pillar supporting the team. Unfortunately, this strong pillar fell one day during a special escort mission where he, Shiro, Ushio, Akane, and Mina were to protect the Queen and the Princess during a diplomatic trip. During the trip, they were attacked by a large and powerful enemy group bent on killing the royal family. At one point, an enemy was able to somehow get within killing range and was about to kill the queen. At the last moment, Daichi was able to get in front and take the full brunt of the blast. This resulted in him having serious injuries needing surgery and a long period of rehabilitation of at least a year promting him to have a leave of absence from the squadron. Even after he was discharged, his legs were still in the recovery process. Even so, he wanted to be there for his squadron so he built a suit of armor that would help him move in combat.

Equipment
Crushing Saw: Daichi's sword which he uses in combat'''. '''It's a large red sword that looks like a combination of a large katana and a chainsaw. It also has a chainsaw function which can tear through whatever obstacles are in his way and the blades are as sharp as Mina's katana. It weighs about 300 lbs giving it more force when swung.

Battle Armor: So he could rejoin his squadron in battle, Daichi made a large suit of armor made of a matierial similar to the stuff used in The Cube that could help with his disablities. The armor itself weighs 500 pounds but moving around while wearing it is easy due to the pressure sensors inside the armor. The helmet has a visor that has a magical syntax of Data Scan Magic which alows him to analyze the things around him. It also has many secret compartments capable of storing objects such as guns, extra blades, and tools.

Storming Tornado: Just like Shiro and the other members of the Black and White Squadron, Daichi has a plane with a magical syntax containing wind magic and lightning magic inside it. It has 3 propellers capable of going supersonic speeds, one on each wing and one on the plane's nose. There is also a Gravity Diffusion system that reduces gravity forces on Daichi while piloting as well as being able to manipulate the gravity field around the plane allowing even more maneuverability. On the back of the wings and the plane's body, there are powerful thrusters which gives the plane a powerful boost in speed. The plane is capable of going a maximum of 2 times the speed of sound. Many of the parts are movable and are the reason of the many switches, knobs and monitors to work with making it one of the most complicated planes to fly effeciently especially with the speed it can go.
