Makoto Fukami

Makoto Fukami (深海 マコト) is Kamen Rider Specter (仮面ライダースペクター), the second Kamen Rider to appear in Kamen Rider Ghost.

He temporarily aided the Ganma in an attempt to resurrect his sister, Kanon Fukami who was reduced to an Eyecon.

Past
Makoto and his sister Kanon were once childhood friends of Takeru and Akari. He was looked up to by Takeru, calling him Big Brother Makoto (マコトにいちゃん). However, by mistake during a freak accident with the temple's monolith, the two were accidentally pulled into the Ganma dimension for years. Alain, a Ganma prince, befriended and watched over the siblings, labeling Makoto as his best friend. Though Makoto was able to escape the Ganma dimension, his sister was reduced to an Eyecon and he himself somehow managed to obtain a Ghost Driver.

He then vowed to obtain 15 Ghost Eyecons in hopes that he could resurrect his sister.

Observing the other Kamen Rider
Makoto first appears observing Kamen Rider Ghost, who had just destroyed the Ono Ganma with his newly acquired Robin Damashii, from a distance with the Cobra Keitai in hand. Continuing his observation of Ghost in his own Rider form, Specter made his appearance when Ghost unlocked 's Parka Ghost, telling Nobunaga to fight with him, to which the Parka Ghost obliged as it entered Specter's Ghost Driver, resulting in the creation of the Nobunaga Ghost Eyecon. Claiming the Eyecon for himself, Specter addressed a confused Ghost, telling him that he was too naive before taking his leave as suddenly as he appeared with his appearance being noted by Alain who observed from a distance.

Second Encounter with Ghost
"Can you give your own life for others? You're naive! Your thinking and your resolve to fight... are all too naive."

- Makoto as he taunts Takeru and his determination.

He later appears again when Ghost is chasing the Machine Gun Ganma, attacking Takeru while the Ganma escapes. He defeats Takeru by using his Gan Gun Hand's Omega Spark finisher while in Nobunaga Damashii and takes Takeru's Edison Eyecon. Later, when Takeru struggles against the Machine Gun Ganma again, Makoto appears and transforms into Specter to steal Takeru's dropped Newton Eyecon. The Ganma attacks Specter however; incensed at the Ganma's attacking him by shooting him in the back, Makoto changes target from the downed Ghost to Machine Gun, transforming into his Tutankhamen Damashii form and soon defeats Machine Gun with the Gan Gun Hand in Sickle Mode's Omega Fang finisher. Makoto picks up the Eyecon, then the two Riders engaged in a Rider Kick clash that sends Ghost out of transformation. However, in that clash, Takeru manages to steal the Newton Eyecon back. Livid at realizing that the Eyecon was missing, Specter storms off.

Makoto appears during Ghost's battle with the Onpu Ganma, transforms into Specter and uses Edison Damashii to easily defeat Takeru. Traumatized by his past defeats and afraid of Makoto, Takeru flees and is forced to leave the Musashi Eyecon he dropped. Before he can claim it, Akari rushes in to snatch the Eyecon away from him. At first, Makoto considers attacking her to get what he wants by threatening Akari. She refuses and Makoto hesitates, finally relenting that she can keep the Musashi Eyecon for the moment. He later hands over the Edison Eyecon to Alain after a conversation with the Sister Eyecon. Makoto then watches Akari and Takeru talk a man out of committing suicide through the Onpu Ganma's influence. At first, Makoto considers transforming to attack Takeru to take his remaining Eyecons, but does not do so when he sees what he is trying to accomplish. After the Onpu Ganma's defeat, the Sister Eyecon tells Makoto she feels glad things worked out, with Makoto simply stating he let Takeru win just this time.

Saionji, recognizing Makoto as one of the victims of the monolith accident, manipulates Specter into hating Takeru and Ryu by claiming that Ryu purposefully used Makoto and Kanon as test subjects for a portal to the Ganma world. While an incensed Makoto attacks Takeru with increased ferocity, Takeru realizes Specter's identity and tries to reason with his childhood friend.

Personality
Makoto is a very driven individual, willing to go to almost any lengths to protect his sister Kanon and restore her to life. He outwardly comes off as stubborn, anti-social and aggressive, his temper getting the better of him when someone speaks about Kanon or tries to harm her. This is possibly a result of his traumatic experience in the Ganma World, as well as his desperation to save his sister Kanon in time. There is question to the morality of his methods, as in two instances he almost harmed Akari just to get his hands on the Ghost Eyecons and his dealings with the Ganma forces. However, Kanon acts as his moral conscience, preventing him from going too far down the wrong path and showing that Makoto still has a caring and kind nature hidden from others.

Makoto was very hostile to his childhood friend Takeru, presumably because he saw Ghost as an obstacle to his goal and harbored resentment for the Tenkuji family for the experiment that led to his sister being reduced to a Ganma Eyecon.

It is shown however that Makoto still holds a level of respect for Ryu Tenkuji. After Takeru selflessly uses the 15 Eyecons to restore Kanon rather than himself, Makoto's demeanor changes, revealing the caring nature he still has and working alongside Takeru to fight the Ganma. He also expresses regret for his past actions and tries to amend whatever harm he has done to his friends by helping them while trying to "settling things" with Alain.

Damashii
Specter's forms are called Damashii (魂), accessed using the Ghost Eyecons. He also bears a headpiece called the Persona (ペルソナ), which gives off a glow effect with the rest of his body. The Persona changes with Specter's numerous Damashii forms, as well as serving as a prefix title for all of the Damashii forms' helms. Differentiating himself from Kamen Rider Ghost, Specter normally bears a pair of Wisp Horns (ウィスプホーン) on his head in most of his Damashii forms, allowing him to use them either for perceiving and sensing Ganma within a 8 km. radius or as a weapon. When transforming into Houdini Damashii, the Wisp Horns are upgraded into the Striker Horns (ストライカーホーン), which upgrades its sensory range with an additional 4 km. to a total of 12 km. of range.

By pulling and pushing the Ghost Driver's lever a second time after transforming, Specter can activate an Omega Drive (オメガドライブ) finishing attack tied to the Ghost Eyecon currently being used. If he pulls and pushes the lever four times, he can instead execute an Oomedama (オオメダマ) special attack.
