@Seirei No Hai: I really don't want to sound nitpicky, but a mage becoming a cop admittedly feels a little weird in terms of this setting. ^^; This may be in part because we already have a police officer as well.

Additionally, I'm not sure I feel entirely comfortable with massive modifications to existing structures on the fly like that as an ability.

Finally, I will be honest and say I'm not sure if that surname is real. ^^; If it is, fair enough. My mistake.

I'm not gonna lie about the surname, I just made it up by combining Japanese words. XP

If you're looking for specifications, I guess I could tone down the reconstruction to smaller buildings like cottages and two-floor houses if you wish, of course for larger, more complex structures will take some time. I should edit some small tidbits about that.

As for the last one, I was going with the detective shtick but I guess that's not going to cut it now especially with him being a mage and stuff like that. I thought it was a cool gimmick.

Hm. Might just make a new one altogether now that I think about it.

@Seirei No Hai: To be fair, a detective does work, it's just joining a police force officially that seemed a bit strange to me.

@vietmyke: He is.

@Seirei No HaiYeah, I was actually going to comment. Not sure if "Musuko" can even be used as a name either, since it would be like a person just being named "Son," and "Jinkouteki na" is just the adjective form of "artificial." It seems less like a name and more like the result of a google translate query... ^^;

Although, there are plenty of simple name forms that are literally just written as "eldest son" (Taro) "second son" (Jiro) etc. And a better surname, if you're planning on making it meaningful to his magecraft like I assume you meant to, might be something like "Hagane" (written as "White Steel") or "Kaji" (written as "Blacksmith").

Hope this helps.

Meanwhile, I totally didn't choose a foreign exchange type fellow just to avoid the naming conventions. Nope, not at all.

You mean a standalone detective? If so, I should edit a few bits and pieces of that.

I'll take your advice and change up the name.

@Eisenhorn Meanwhile I started looking up genealogical records to find correct personal names for the Nara period.

Pretty certain that name thus is more Chinese pronunciation than anything, or at least how it ended up in the Japanese imperial court at that point, but I am not a linguist. xD

@Raineh Daze Hah, at one point I knew the actual meaning behind my fellow's name, but I am drawing a blank at the moment! I could look into it real quick like.

@Seirei No Hai I mean, detectives are police technically- more responsibilities, more work, about the same amount of pay. Though I guess private investigators pop up everywhere.

@Seirei No Hai: That's how I meant it.

Also being able to change whole buildings is a bit extreme. ^^;
