Paradox Soul: "Zero"
A special trait he was born with unique only to Dante alone by the sole reason of the time of, and the circumstances behind, his birth. While a normal human being in a sense, his birth was attended by an extraordinary amount of good omens. He was born on a Sunday morning, at exactly seven o’clock, during a sun shower that had been succeeded by the clearest shooting star sighting the city of Florence had ever seen. After his mother’s successful delivery, he was given an infant tag of ‘777-777’ and put into the seventh cradle on the seventh row of infants in the maternity ward viewing room which was, coincidentally, numbered ‘777’.
Soon after his birth, Dante’s grandparents soon dropped by gave his father and mother the baby’s first monetary gift, largely unaware of the fact that, what strongly resembled Dante’s name was ‘written’ on a cobweb on the corner of the hospital room just above the crib where he had been staying, which was likewise the case when a swallow-tail butterfly flew from the open window sill and landed upon the baby Dante’s nose before fluttering away.
Apart from the good omens, Dante was also the inheritor of a very special bloodline. His father, a half-Japanese and half-British man who moved to Italy (he prefers to be considered Italian), had within his veins the blood of a mixed heritage from two legendary figures in the world of the occult: Aleister Crowley and Abe no Seimei – a distinct bloodline which his father passed down onto him. His mother, on the other hand, was seemingly normal throughout his childhood, but was always teased to be, by his father’s own words, “one hell of a demon-woman”, which Dante largely considered to be his father’s way of being affectionate, at the expense of unexplained claw marks his father would receive the following day.
By reason of all these uncanny instances coalescing into one moment in time, the sheer amount of positive energy, amplified by Dante’s special bloodline, naturally developed Dante’s body into a living, breathing medium of ether that naturally takes in everything good and gives him all the benefits of it, right down to the atomic level of his existence. Of course, he and his family are completely oblivious to this fact, and thus, Dante has never found out of his ability.
Such benefits include, but are not limited to:

Omni-Negation– Dante’s most prominent ability is, ironically, the very thing that actually makes him 'truly' human and is the reason why he is unable to perceive things of a supernatural nature and prevents him from being able to brandish supernatural forces by his own hand. It is a special trait which grants him total invulnerability from any and all effects of a supernatural origin that may have on a human, regardless of strength, and without discrimination on whether or not they would be beneficial to him, which makes this a double-edged blade.
The reason for this strange reaction to spirit particles is because his body naturally emits “anti-reishi particles” – a result of his kishi body being too harmonized with the ether, the natural energy present in the material universe independent from reishi and common in all astrological phenomena. It is a natural force unique only to the human world – something which most people would call ‘luck’, ‘coincidence’, ‘feng shui’, or ‘omens’. Whatever may be the name, they all still refer to the mysterious power that affects the daily lives of humans without them even knowing it.
As said before, it is because of this trait that Dante cannot interact with things beyond the realm of the human world nor can he see them, but in the same manner, neither can these things affect him in any way, shape, or form, nor can they use their supernatural abilities within close proximity with him, save the single exception of entities who are themselves also in harmony with the mystic forces of the ether or are themselves constructs composed of it.
