Tatsumi is male deuteragonist in Akame Ga Kill! anime series. His story is of a pure-hearted adventure who goes from countryside hero to legendary freedom fighter defeating the evil empire with his fellow Night Raid members. He battles and grows with the aid of each of his team members to become the avenging hero necessary in the desperate fight against the empire. Due to his good-hearted nature, various people grow fond of Tatsumi and each has a reason for why they have claim over him. Regardless of the odds that stand before him, Tatsumi holds to his heroic nature to defeat those who would harm innocents at any cost. This build of Tatsumi is of him fighting his way through most of the series with Incursio at his side.
Tatsumi Stats
Str 15 Dex 13 Con 14 Int 8 Wis 10 Cha 12 (27 point buy)
Str 15 Dex 14 Con 14 Int 8 Wis 10 Cha 14 (after racial and feat mod)
Class Fighter 1/Paladin 5(Oath of Vengeance)
The three things that I wanted to achieve in this build are:
- Fierce Melee Fighting Assassin.
- Incursio Powers with or without Armor.
- Powerful Avenging Blows.
Background
For Background, I chose Folk Hero for Tatsumi. He gains the skills of Animal Handling and Survival, Tool Proficiencies of Vehicles (Land) and Cook’s Utensils, and the Background Feature of Rustic Hospitality. This represents Tatsumi’s travel to the capital, aiding merchants and defeating danger beasts along the way.
Race
For Race, I chose Variant Human. With this race, he gains + 1 to Cha and Dex, Skills: Stealth and Feat: Shadow Touched: Cha +1 and False Life spell.
Class
Tatsumi’s class breakdown is Fighter 1/Paladin 5 (Oath of Vengeance). It is with these classes, that Tatsumi gains the ability to unleash high damage onto his chosen foe, skills necessary for hunting down the empire’s lackeys as well as the powers that mimic the might of his Teigu, the Demon Armor Incursio. This combination of classes and feats is the best attempt to consolidate his abilities and talents at this level.
Fighter 1 is the starting class for Tatsumi. This class gives him the proficiencies of Perception and Athletics, Fighting Style: Unarmed Fighting, and Second Wind.
Paladin 1 is where he gains access to the bulk of his devastating power and unwavering tenacity. He gains Divine Sense and Lay on Hands.
Paladin 2 gives him access to Fighting Style: Blind Fighting, Spellcasting, and Divine Smite. Now he can cut down his foes with a powerful slash as well as sensing hidden foes in a 10-foot around himself.
Paladin 3 garners Tatsumi a path to avenge his fallen friends as well as free the crushed citizenry of the empire in the form of the Sacred Oath of Vengeance. This level gives him Divine Health, Channel Divinity, and Oath Spells: Bane and Hunter’s Mark. This Oath is where he picks up the ability to instill fear into fiends and undead creatures gifting them a speed of 0 and the frightened condition if they fail or Vow of Enmity that garners advantage for attack rolls against his chosen foe for 1 minute.
Paladin 4 gifts Tatsumi with the feat Gift of the Chromatic Dragon. This feat gives him the ability to infuse his weapons with acid, cold, fire, lighting, or poison damage for 1 minute as well as the ability to gain resistance to the same type of damage that he is attacked with as a reaction. This represents Incursio’s ability to adapt to an attack like that of the danger beast Tyrant.
Paladin 5 is the final level for Tatsumi with the features of Extra Attack and Oath Spells: Hold Person and Misty Step.
With full use of Tatsumi’s powers, she can perform the following techniques via class features and abilities:
- Incursio- Living Armor, Plate + Extra Attack + Gift of the Chromatic Dragon + Glaive of Warning (Neuntote) + Shadow Touched: Invisibility and False Life.
- Sixth Sense- Blind-Fight + Glaive of Warning (Neuntote)
This combination of feats, stats, and spells makes this DND build of Tatsumi an indefatigable titan of avenging power dispatching the foul agents of the empire with each swing of his righteous blade in Six levels or Less.
