Mitsuhiro Minamimoto

Mitsuhiro Minamimoto is the first leading male protagonist of the Time Gate series.

Mitsuhiro is an anomaly among the magic world - a human born with Adythielan powers. Though his powers aren't fully evolved to the extent that a standard Adythielan would harness, since he was born he has had the ability to mark the lifespans of those nearing death directly to his body. This action is unfortunately involuntary, with timers that are unstoppable, so it's considered by Mitsuhiro to be more of a curse - especially with his own lifeline marked on his body as well.

It wasn't until he met Uzuki, whose lifespan timer would join the many others on his body - across his right palm - that he would try to defy the timers and stop the fate of death.

Background
Mitsuhiro was born in Adythiel, during the 4585th Cycle, on the 350th Day. He was raised primarily by his mother, who exhibited no signs of Adythielan magic, thus leading Mitsuhiro to believe that he inherited his powers from his father; though there is unfortunately no way for him to find out, as he has no recollection or physical records of his father to turn to.

Unsure of what his timers were for the first few years of his life, Mitsuhiro lived with his mother and attended school, unnoticed by Uzuki, Saichi, and many of the other students, due to his quiet nature. It wasn't until his mother died - with her timer that was marked upon Mitsuhiro's body upon birth - that Mitsuhiro realized the true nature of his powers.

After his mother died, Mitsuhiro lived on his own, with no other family to help him. Even with an inheritance from his mother, which included her home, Mitsuhiro mainly worked odd jobs to save up money for food and school. It was during this time that Mitsuhiro began to study his powers and learn the rules of how they worked. Along with the timers, he learned how to use his powers to suck the lifespans from peoples' bodies, though it was an ability he wouldn't use often due to the murderous nature of it.

Time Gate: Reaper
Mitsuhiro first marked Uzuki shortly after their senior year at the Adythiel Academy began. With the timer marked on his right palm - a timer that matched with his own timer that had marked on him at birth, along his back shoulders - Mitsuhiro set out to put an end to the cycle of predetermined death once and for all. In a twist of events, Mitsuhiro intervened and saved Uzuki's life, after she had been threatened by the rogue Angel, Clavinova. With a supposed life debt now in tow, Mitsuhiro had some way to at least connect with Uzuki and possibly find a way to stop her timer - and possibly his own as well.
