Tsuchimikado Motoharu

Tsuchimikado Motoharu (土御門 元春) is a friend and classmate of Touma's, who just happens to be his next-door neighbor at the dormitory they're staying at. While he may seem like your normal, average teenager, there's more to him than meets the eye. He is a member of GROUP, which he joins to ensure the safety of his beloved step-sister Maika. He is also a member of Necessarius.

Profile
Motoharu has blonde hair and is always seen with sunglasses and wearing an Aloha shirt when not in his school uniform. Secretly, he is actually a former agent of Necessarius who became a freelance spy for Necessarius, Academy City, and other unknown organizations; the leaders of both Necessarius and Academy City are both aware of this but have decided to let him be for the time being. His sorcery name is Fallere825, "the backstabber." He has a younger step-sister named Maika, whom he is also in love with, and for this he is known as the "Sis-con Sergeant," and "the dangerous guy that lets his younger sister wear a maid outfit and then chases after her."

Personality
As his sorcery name states, he's somewhat of a trickster and by his own admission, a liar. However, he's on very good terms with Touma and his fellow Necessarius magicians. His devotion to his sister is so great that he fought against the invaders from the Roman Catholic Church in Volume 12 and helped prevent massive casualities. He also easily gets jealous if someone else talks about Maika.

Abilities
He was formerly a skilled Onmyouji, as his family are descendants of Abe no Seimei, but gave up his abilities when he went under the Power Development Curriculum. His esper ability is the Level 0 Auto Regeneration. He is the only successful esper/magician hybrid.


 * Onmyoji Arts: He's very skilled in basic magic and Onmyouji, as he managed to erect a barrier during Angel Fall and destroy Touma's home using a spell.


 * Level 0 Auto-Rebirth (肉体再生 (オートリバース)): Due to his ability, he can still use magic, as he can repair the damage done to his body. Despite these advantages, he still avoids using magic except in the most desperate of situations as he cannot avoid the extreme pain caused by casting it, shown when he destroyed the spell location of Angel Fall, resulting in him falling in a large pool of his own blood that came from his eyes, nose, mouth and several other parts of his body. He also mentions that his ability is not perfect (being a Level 0) and could at anytime fail to revive him, causing him to die permanently. He estimates that he may only have 5 or 6 "lifelines" left. Although he has this ability, it has not been shown as to how it activates or works. The only time when he is seen as "dead" is lying in his blood pool after destroying Touma's house to prevent Angel Fall. The next time he's seen, all of his injuries have been recovered.


 * Hand to Hand Combat: Tsuchimikado is a very skilled hand-to-hand fighter. He easily defeats Touma- who is a rather experienced street fighter himself- without Touma even being able to land a single hit. Touma claims that he could only possibly win if he were going against two (non-magical or esper) opponents at once.
