Gaian name: Falling Up The Stairs
Name: Koichi Zenigata the Fourth
Age: 25
Appearance: Zenigata's skin is lightly tanned and he has coal black eyes as well as jet-black hair. His clothing consists of a long brown-tan trench coat, brown pants, a white undershirt with a small brown vest to go over it, black dress shoes and a black tie. His Gun and Handcuffs also makes him look exactly like his late father, Koichi Zenigata The Third.
The only different bewteen him and his father is that his hair is different and he doesn't wear a hat.
Race: Human
Bio: Growing up, Zenigata always looked up to his father, who had joined Interpol and ICPO, so, of course, he joined the police after reaching the age of eighteen. Two years past and because of his amazing work and duties, Zenigata was put up as Inspector and placed on the Rose case. So, like his father before him, Zenigata became obssessive over his work and catching Rose, making him to busy to settle down, though he doesn't mind. After all, he enjoys the hunt and thinks of Rose as a friend at times.
Capability: While usually portrayed as a bumbling fool most of the time, Zenigata in actually is a very clever and crafty adversary to Rose. For instance, there is heavy security in the a castle and both guards and Zenigata's police forces waiting for Rose to attempt to break into the castle. While Rose attempts to gain entry through the castle's viaduct system, Zenigata is apparently the only sentry to realize he could be making that attempt and would have captured Rose if he hadn't been suddenly called away at the worst possible time.
While he has rarely been successful in capturing Rose, this is more because of Rose's resourcefulness than Zenigata's incompetence. Most of the times he actually does catch Rose, it's actually one of Rose's plans, and Zenigata is helping her unknowingly. Zenigata's excellent detective work always manages to lead him to Rose's current location, despite the fact that Rose constantly travels around the world. His presence sometimes compromises Rose's schemes, forcing Rose to improvise, yet he can never successfully apprehend Rose. Zenigata has quite the high success rate in other police endeavors such as arresting numerous dangerous criminals after Rose has defeated them, and it is this degree of success that enables him to still lead the investigation towards Rose's capture even after so many failed attempts-he is obviously highly decorated and respected, Rose is the only stain on his otherwise perfect record. His greatest weakness is his extreme single-mindedness; he is so intent upon catching Rose, that he usually ignores (or fails to discover) any obstacles between them - even insurmountable ones - inevitably resulting in Rose getting away. He is, however, extremely skilled - few people stand a chance when Zenigata goes after them, so his obsession with Rose may stem from the fact that he's the only one who presents a challenge for Zenigata's talents.
Rose is genuinely impressed with Zenigata's doggedness and skills, and has implied that she thinks it a shame he has to be a cop - under different circumstances they might have been great partners. When they share a common goal, they work extremely well together.
Zenigata is also aware that while Rose may be a scoundrel, there are worse evils in the world, and he's willing to team up with Rose to bring down a more dangerous threat. However, this is always with the mutual understanding that he intends to arrest Rose upon neutralization of the common foe with his distinctive cry of "ROSE!! YOU'RE UNDER ARREST!!"
Physical skills:Zenigata is in phenomenal physical shape for a man his age, and has shown proficiency in Judo and Karate, able to dispatch multiple attackers with minimal effort. He's also capable with a jitte, the traditional Japanese police weapon designed to counter attacks with a sword. He is also quite the accurate shot with his gun, a Colt .45 pistol, and an almost inhuman skill with handcuffs, which he likes to throw in a bola-like manner at his prey. However, his diet leaves a lot to be desired, consisting mostly of water-boiled ramen noodles and black coffee.
Zenigata's subconscious, however, appears to be in full control of his body. During chases he can perform superhuman physical feats without thinking, simply because of his preoccupation with Rose. For example, the mere mention of Rose's name is enough to wake him from a critical coma, even as he is about to succumb to a near-fatal bullet wound.
Weapon: Handcuffs and a Colt 1911A1 government issus.
Extra(optional): Zenigata has made it his mission in life to arrest Rose. He would love to arrest the other members of Rose's gang, but Zenigata is really after the mastermind herself. Rose and Zenigata appear to be the worst of enemies, but they are, in a manner of speaking, friends; something Rose shows openly (often by greeting Zenigata with mock affection), but it is an idea Zenigata is extremely reluctant to entertain. Similarly, he is often awed by Rose's genius, but refuses to show it. He's unable to settle down because of his eternal pursuit, and although he sometimes longs for female company he has no luck with women - in no small part due to his inability to commit himself to anything but chasing Rose. Zenigata is also quite sensitive person and often cries in emotional situations, particularly when he thinks Rose has done something out of consideration for him, or when finding out Rose is OK after worrying about him. On occasions when Rose appears to be dead, he mourns her more expressively than anyone else; partly from genuine grief, partly because he no longer has a goal in life. Because of this singular ambition, he is never particularly displeased when Rose manages to escape his custody, since that means the hunt will go on.
