Maki Oze, a 19-year-old firefighter in Tokyo’s Special Fire Force Company 8, stands 167 cm tall with a fair, athletic physique honed by rigorous military training. Her sharp violet eyes contrast long, dark brown hair that cascades past her shoulders, accented by cropped bangs framing her face. She wears a black sleeveless top and dark trousers beneath protective gear featuring a blue-lined jacket with cross-shaped buttons, neck guard, gloves, boots, and helmet. Off-duty, she opts for casual shirts and jeans, avoiding dresses that clash with her muscular frame.
Daughter of General Danrou Oze and sister to 1st Lieutenant Tagaki of the Criminal Investigation Division, Maki once served as a Private in the Tokyo Army under Sergeant Takehisa Hinawa. Her exceptional combat skills stem from training surpassing standard military rigor, though she left the army to join Company 8, prioritizing life-saving over combat.
A Second Generation pyrokinetic, Maki manipulates flames remotely—extinguishing, absorbing, or redirecting fire to shield allies. Her signature Iron Owl devices, engineered by Vulcan, float autonomously to launch fiery projectiles or form defensive barriers, though their electronics risk malfunctioning under interference.
Calm and focused in battle, Maki balances her disciplined demeanor with a quiet passion for romantic fiction. She interacts warmly with comrades, particularly respecting Lieutenant Hinawa due to their shared military past. While generally composed, remarks about her muscular build trigger sharp irritation, reflecting self-consciousness about her appearance. She crafts playful fire creatures for leisure, avoiding lethal force—a principle that steered her away from military service.
