Character

Victor Licht

ヴィクトル・リヒト

Viktor Licht is the head of incendiary research at Haijima Industries, and the scientist of Special Fire Force Company 8. Viktor is known as a mad scientist and is a self-described weirdo. He is interested in the matters of the Special Fire Forces, as he personally looked into Akitaru Ōbi's careers as a firefighter and attended the Rookie Fire Soldier Games as a spectator. As a scientist, Viktor is deeply interested in the near mythical Adolla Burst, going as far as crawling on the floor and grabbing Shinra Kusakabe's feet to get a closer look upon meeting him in person. Though somewhat creepy due to his attitude and manic smile, Licht is an intelligent, meticulous and curious man with an excitable nature. He considers observing bizarre abilities, grand events and being able to research interesting subjects as everything a scientist could wish for, to the point that he is willing to hide potentially vital information from his allies to ensure he is able to see events unfold.
