"Society and civilization claims peace, attempting to hide their greed. Corporations are full of lies and illusion. Police are corrupt. Even the dumb bimbos I party with are as fake as their breast implants. In this world of lies, deceit, and illusion, my powers blend right in. So come and catch me if you can, but don't expect the path to be as straight as you think it is."

- Maika Nagumo to the Realmwatch Collective

Maika Nagumo was a Contingency Initiative Operative serving under Elimination Squad Four for Matthew "The Mirage" Lam. Her codename was The Refractor prior to her death to The Transplant. Maika was the first member to join Squad Four after Matt, making her his first subordinate, and the member who had known him the longest out of everyone in the Elimination Squad.

Possessing incredible mastery over her ability to distort space around her body, Maika was commonly referred to as Squad Four's Illusionist. Adding onto her power of illusion, Maika possesses incredible mastery over the katana, frequently combining her skills as a former kunoichi assassin to her evo to be one of the most cunning hand to hand fighters, falling only slightly short to Mirage's Senkaku Style.

Biography

"I know about your past. You were a kunoichi in Fukuoka trying to pay your younger sister's debt. You were married to a man called Ito Kintaro who you trusted for eight years, until he betrayed both you and your sister and had her killed for spare change. And now you can't trust men ever again. It's a sad story, but if you joined my Squad hoping for something different, then you're sorely mistaken. Stop waiting for your Prince Charming to enter your life and banking on just that for it to turn around. If you want things to change it's up to you to change it. Not others."

- Matthew Lam to Maika Nagumo

Before joining the Contingency Initiative, Nagumo joined the underground assassin organization Scarlet Rose, working as a kunoichi and partaking in numerous assassinations to pay off her younger sister's debt. Maika would secretly work as a kunoichi throughout her high school years, balancing her assassin life with her school life. Throughout middle school, Maika dated Ito Kintaro, the son of a wealthy merchant who became attracted to her after witnessing Maika outperform the upper years during a sports festival due to her heightened physical conditioning as a kunoichi.

After graduation, Maika married Kintaro as well as finally cleared her younger sister's debt.
