What's Gino's Septima?

One thing that I always found strange in Gunvolt was how Gino's septima was never addressed, even in the Japanese version of the game. To all appearances, he seems to be an adept, but he never mentions, displays, or even hints at any specific, unique ability that he has. Not even his official art, which pictures him dual-wielding two guns, gives you any real idea. Why is this? Honestly, I don't know. The game takes care to mention that Monica is one of the only humans in Feather, so you'd think that Gino has to be an adept with some special skill. And yet, even when he's talking to you in the heat of combat, telling you that he'd just dodged an enemy attack by a hair (and so forth), he only jokes around making references to various things in Japanese pop culture.
