Ogun Montgomery, a Third Generation pyrokinetic, creates and manipulates his own flames. His ancestry traces back to Nigeria's Yoruba tribe, inspired by the Immigrant Hero, an ancestor who saved lives as a ship captain during the Great Cataclysm. This legacy fuels his commitment to protecting Tokyo's inhabitants. He trained at the Special Fire Force Training Academy, forming friendships with Shinra Kusakabe and Arthur Boyle. Ogun frequently stepped between their hero-knight clashes, finding their rivalry unnecessary for firefighters. Though considered by Company 8, he joined Company 4, earning recognition as their "Star Rookie." His pyrokinetic abilities shape flames into weapons and mobility tools. Signature techniques include the **Yoruba Lance** (launching flaming spears), the **Hoverboard** (a fiery aerial board that detonates on impact), the **Yoruba Forge** (flaming daggers marking targets for explosion), and **Falling Arsenal** (summoning a rain of fiery spears). His potent **Flamy Ink** technique tattoos flames onto his body, temporarily amplifying strength, speed, and durability to elite levels like Leonard Burns, but risks severe overheating with prolonged use. Key involvements include: - Intervening during Shinra's possessed rampage at Company 4, enduring attacks while strategizing to restore Shinra's sanity and expressing faith in their bond. - Leading a research expedition to the Chinese Peninsula to investigate the Great Cataclysm and Adolla Bursts, battling sentient Infernals. He used Flamy Ink to overpower the Demon Infernal Tempe and protected Shinra to access external powers. - Participating in defense efforts during the Stone Pillar emergence, combining Flamy Ink with allies' abilities to combat a giant Infernal. - Later questioning the Tokyo Empire's corruption after superiors like Captain Hague were murdered and Company 8 was falsely implicated, leading Company 4 to covertly support Company 8. Ogun balances protective dedication to civilians with fierce loyalty to comrades. He shows empathy even towards adversaries fighting for loved ones and maintains a peacemaking role during conflicts. His combat style emphasizes tactical agility, using flame-based mobility to outmaneuver foes and exploit openings against formidable opponents like Charon. Top marks at the academy reflect his strategic intellect.
