Personality

---

•Favorite Color: Crimson red, this is because it brings back happy memories of her consuming people.

•Favorite food: Adjuchas and Shinigami... She may be an Arrancar now, but she still likes to feed on them.

•Favorite flower: Pink and red camellia blossom though the scent is light she still loves them and their beauty.

• Habits: Experimenting on people, she thinks of this as fun. In her own words, "Nothing is better than when I have a living thing cut open, and its heart in my hands still beating."

•Likes: She enjoys walking in the dead of night while most other life makes itself scarce. She also has a fondness for water and enjoys swimming.

•Dislikes: She dislikes sunlight with a passion. In her Familiar days, it caused her a lot of pain.

•Fears: Suzu speaks for herself, "People fear what they don't understand. As someone who seeks out knowledge, fear is only a hindrance.”

•Loyalty: She is Loyal to her research... not so much to people. This comes with few exceptions the beloved people that she sees as family.

•Flaws: She is reckless at times and puts her own life or those of others in danger for what she believes to be the greater good, or even if something interests her.

•Friendly: She can act friendly and likes talking to people.

•Flirt: She is a flirt if she is drinking. Both with blood or alcohol both from a man or woman, it doesn't really matter.

•Sexuality: Bi-curious: But limited to her husband. Even though she might find both body types to be appealing to some degree she has no interest in sex outside her marriage. In fact, she commonly lacks the parts of her mind that are responsible for sexual attraction. This, in turn, makes it impossible for her to feel sexual attraction for anyone at this time no matter what. Hormones or even the strongest aphrodisiac won’t get her going simply because in this time her brain is not capable of feeling sexual desire. She can reform the parts of her mind when needed but is only done with her husband.

• Ethnicity: She doesn't talk about this, But it is clear she is not Japanese, by birth she is Hungarian.

• Occupation: Some will call her a mad scientist, but she does not see what she does the same way as them.

•Elegance: She can act elegant if there is a need for it. After all, people like to get a good feeling from someone... who may be cutting into them later. By acting elegant she can give a good first impression

•Hates: She really hates being called a hollow. She is alright with Arrancar.

•Snapping Point: It takes some button pushing. But when she snaps... run, just RUN.

•Confident: She has a lot of self-confidence. If something looks hopeless to her, she will try her best not to show it and overcome the hopelessness.

•Zodiac: Traditional cancer Traits.Emotional and loving. Intuitive and imaginative. Shrewd and cautious. Protective and sympathetic/On the dark side...Changeable and moody. Overemotional and touchy. Clinging and unable to let go.

• General Personality: She is outgoing and hyperactive. She loves to joke and acts like a kid. She thinks there is no point stressing over small things, so she is a pretty laid-back kind of girl, but can be serious if it's needed. She likes to live a care-free lifestyle. She walks the world looking to see all she can. Her curiosity gets the best of her a lot. She loves to play with people as well.

In the end, Suzu almost seems random and in fact, she sometimes does things with no real foreseeable reason. Such as outrunning a whole senior PE class of boys at KHS. Why would she do this? To irritate the boys from the fact, they could not keep up with the first-year little girl. It is true Suzu is socially awkward and secretive, but she is also highly manipulative women. So even something like this act had an underline reason. By use of a slip and fall, she was, in fact, able to make contact with one of the most powerful beings in the school named zero and even become friendly with him. In short, it's hard to judge Suzu by her actions for the actions she takes almost always paints a misleading picture.

APPEARANCE

[left]

Appearance:

Clothing, Accessories, Garments, Vestments, all these things mean little to Suzu as she changes them often. Some people use the clothing they have as a status symbol such as the white haori of the Gotei 13 captains. Suzu finds the whole idea of this to be completely ludicrous. Let people acknowledge you for whom you are and what you have done, not what manner of cloth is on your back.

Suzu's hair is silver in color and was even this color when she was alive as a human. Most people's hair turns gray with old age and becomes doll as the life seems to be leaving it. But her hair is far from gray as it has a luster to it. Townspeople use to say that it resembles the sine of pure silver coins and that it was no wonder she was picked to be a servant girl to a noble family.

Her skin is lustrous, soft and smooth like silk or velvety to the touch, but it's also scar and blemish free. no signs of an intersection in it at all. The tone of her skin is a pure snowy white as if it had never seen the light of day. Most of her other physical aspects change constantly. Size, shape, length, with age control it should be obvious that what her body's physical proportions change a lot. But one good marker for suzu is her Eyes. One is always a nice cool shade of blue that if you look into it almost instills a sense of calmness into you. The other a lovely ruby red that seems to have a passionate fire burning deep inside it.

Reiatsu Colour: A mix of purple and black. Or some time blue

Reiatsu details: its feel is offsetting more like a vizard than anything to those of Adept Mental Deduction. Yet apparently different from them as well.

SEALED STATE

Sealed Zanpakutô:
( a sword with a double edged blade. the hand guard is a forked like emblem. the hand guard and hilt are one solid piece. her spiritual pressure determines the strength of the blade same as any other Arrancar/ Shinigami.

Zanpakutô.


Altered Zanpakutô
(Suzu has developed a way to make her Zanpakutô change not unlike shikai. the blade is like a chain sword. its does not get stronger. and at full extent is only 6 meter's long . she can control if the chain links are lose stiff the links as to make them unmoving . how ever she can only do 2 or 3 chain whip attacks before it must return to gather. but attacks done will the blade is stiff don't count. )

{Race Abilities}

•Flight: is capable of flying supernaturally. This can be done in more than one way. be it the normal fixed reishi or forms of magick.

•Enhanced Cero: As an energy blast, it consists of firing a powerful blast of concentrated spiritual energy at the target. Suzu's being able to easily remove a city block from the face of the planet if she puts enough energy into it.

•Enhanced Bala: As all Arrancar already have the ability to fire consecutive Bala blasts at the enemy Suzu also possesses this ability. But Suzu’s is the full strength of a normal cero from a 3-1. This is because all Bala are normally weaker than the user’s cero and Suzu being so strong putting this must energy out is child’s play.

• Broadcasted: Sight: ability to broadcast information of whatever she is currently seeing or things she experienced to other Arrancar, she does this by creating a visual broadcast, similar to a television screen, using individual Garganta portals. She uses this technique to show past events and things she has seen as well as things happening in real time.
Limits: 2 post use with a 5 post cool down, but limitless in Casual Threads.

•Descorrer: a technique used by Espada-level Arrancar and sometimes others, to open a Garganta between the living world and Hueco Mundo

• Enhanced Flesh Hierro: Suzu's Hierro is extremely durable though it appears and feels just as soft as normal skin. Suzu has developed this form of Hierro to keep its strength but unlike some other Hierro that hardens like armor, hers allows for maximum mobility. The way of explaining how this Hierro works is it reacts based off of elasticity. If anything comes in contact with her body rather it physical or energy it puts a force on the Hierro. Such as the explosive force of a cero or the force of something hitting against it. The Hierro than hardens to keep its form from changing or braking. The actual strength of the Hierro is determined by her tier class and Hierro skill level.

{ key guide for Enhanced Flesh Hierro}

Spoiler:

•Pesquisa : An Arrancar ability to measure and locate spiritual pressure Pesquisa functions similarly to sonar, through a radiating pulse sent outwards from the user which reacts to sources of reiatsu within a certain proximity, allowing them to determine the location of any sensed individuals and granting them an indication of how powerful they actually are.

•Sonído : The Arrancar equivalent to a Shinigami's Shunpo. While somewhat similar to Hohō in regards to function and speed, Sonído appears to be more instinctual, seemingly requiring no previous knowledge to perform. Suzu has learned away of performing a silent Sonído. she has done this by studying the Shinigami's Shunpo and using what she learned to perfect and tweaked her own Sonído.

•Soul-Body Separation: This technique allows Suzu to forcibly extract a living spirit from others. The soul is still attached by the Chain of Fate and can be saved but if it is broken then the soul can prevent the Encroachment so long as he/she is placed inside a soulless body or animal.

•Grand ray cero: Is a Cero that only Espada are capable of using. It is performed by mixing an Espada's own blood with the Cero. The result is a Cero with a much greater attack power and speed as well as a change of color unique to the Espada. It is also many times more powerful than a normal Cero, capable of disturbing the fabric of space, it also seems to spin like a razor upon release as it compresses and decompresses due to the sheer speed and raw power. It is stated by Ulquiorra that using a Gran Rey Cero is one of two things that are forbidden while inside Las Noches, as it is so overwhelming that it could destroy the fortress.

{Unique Abilities}

•Advanced anatomy: It should go without saying but suzu’s internal anatomy is unlike anything else. Her body's anatomy has changed to be more efficient. Her body having two Hakusui’s and Saketsu’s. Each located under her breast just to the side of where they normally are. One set to the right and one on the left. If one set is taken out her body has the other two that it can fall back on. Her circulatory system is also dubbed to meet her needs for energy constantly flowing thru her vanes. The secondary heart located next to her stomach. Her stomach and intestines both are reduced in size to make room for this all.

•Fragment rebirth: she does not have control over the fragment of her self. they think and act of there own free will for the most part. but when killed if killed there bodys brake down and rejoin her instead of going to the ss or hell. In The event, one is completely destroyed and she can no longer sense them, she can reform them but they will have no memory of what happened to them. she can than reform them later on. the only real power she has that is joins with the fragments is communication thru telepathy.


• Vampirism: this is her favorite ability. This ability works on ether living thing or nonliving. This is when she bites into someone and drinks their blood/Reitsu" from some one’s body. This ability heals her. She is immune to all natural blood diseases and natural pathogens. If the other person skills, however, is blood-related it steal does affect her. If blood is their weapon she can’t drink the blood there using.
{Side note} Healing limits: can only heal/regenerate 1 limb or ¼ of her Energy per fight by using this skill. This is limited to onetime use skill per fight.

•Kidō caster. With the knowledge of Kidō and how it was utilized, she has opened up the world of Kidō to herself. The best way to say how she does this is Suzu has learned to manipulate her own Reiryoku in the same way that the shinigami do to perform the spells. This is greatly made possible by her time in the shino academy in the soul society as she would have become well-versed in the arts of Kidō. therefore making it easy for her to use even as a Arrancar. As every spiritual being has reiryoku "even Arrancar" anyone with the knowledge and training to use it could use Kidō.



• Form sword: Suzu no longer needing a sword to hold her powers does not have one set sword anymore, but she can from reiatsu into a sword to use in a fight. Suzu can make this swords fire cero’s from it or slashes of energy. The sword mainly takes on the appearance of her old sword or its altered form but it is not limited to that. She can just as easily make the sword take on any number of physical forms with her imagination being its limit. But she can only have one sword at a time. Also the swords physical form does not really change its strength or power at all. The only exception to this is if she makes a chain sword and then it gets the added ability of her altered swords form listed above. In the event that she no longer wants the sword, she has made it will dematerialize.

•Hysterical strength: to put it simply there are three kinds of muscles. Red muscles, pink muscles, and white muscles each have their use. But through genetic modification, Suzu has made it so her body only has altered pink muscles. What was the point in her doing this? Strength. By building her muscles to have a lot of small capillaries and mitochondria she has made a muscle that not only can last a long time in continual use but can put out a great amount of force. This all results in her being able to break a 3-inch seki seki stone with her physical Strength. Note this is only an explanation on how she can be so strong and yet have a small body. Her strength will and is still determined by the general skill.

•Highly Perceptive: Suzu has demonstrated an ability to be very detail oriented when it comes to fighting. She notices her opponent's mannerisms and discerns with ease the reasons behind those actions and the weaknesses and strengths of her opponents. She is also able to look at unfamiliar attacks and figure out the way they work just by viewing at least once.

•Rapid mind: This is an Ability made possible by her Highly Perceptive ability and her will skills. By speeding up her brains rate of thinking time looks to be moving slower allowing her to see incoming attacks easily and react to them without mercy. This Ability combined with her General Speed and Sonido can allow her body to move at the same speed that she thinks and by doing this she can avoid attacks easily and find openings to attack her opponent

•Expert Swordsmanship. Suzu does not like to use a sword. But that being said she knows how really well. This has come from a lifetime of training with one,

•Vast Spiritual Power: Her power is so much that even someone at a captain's level ( a 1-4) would have trouble moving in her presence if they did not focus their energy. Her reiryoku is so great it can disrupt energy attacks from enemies and make them so week that it’s not even worth trying to avoid.

•Vast Spiritual Power Energy Disruption and Movement limitations details .

3 tire classics or lower: Energy Disruption 90%, Movement limitations 80%
2 tire classics lower 70%
1 tire classics lower 40%
with in same tire class 20%
higher class Tier 0%

Resereccion

---

Resereccion Name:
(Shi no yoroi) Armor of death

Resereccion Release Phrase/Release Actions: {N/A} by placing her powers back into her own body she does not need to use any release phrase/release actions she can do it by will alone. To onlookers her release looks as if a blue light has covered her body. This flash of blue light will then fade away showing her release form.

Resereccion Appearance:


Resereccion Abilities:
•Wormholes: she can create wormholes to redirect ranged attacks, both physical and energy based, after using this skill she can’t use again for 2 of her own post.
The best way I can think to explain it is its two portals to another spot near them a max of 20 meters away from her body. The ranged attack enters the one she makes in front of herself and comes out somewhere else this skill can only be used 3 times in a fight at max. Only usable on ranged attacks. Living things cannot enter the Wormhole.


•Bilocation: Suzu can break herself apart. Her energy is then divided up between the bodies. This allows her to be in multiple places at the same time. Or more so to fight multiple at the same time if needed.
{Guide for Bilocation} For each time she splits all the bodies’ power will be dropped by 2 tier steps. As well all will receive a - unless her normal tire has a +. The max number of bodies is 4.
Example: let’s say she was a 1-2 tier. If she splits in too two beings she will drop 2 tier steps and receive a - for that tier. ( but if her normal tire is a + it will negate the -) the drop by 2 would make her a 1-4- making her weaker than a normal 1-4 seeing how there was no +.


•Form control: Advanced off her age control Suzu has the choice to take the natural release appearance or keep the form she was in prior. This ability does not add any power to her nor does it weaken her. It merely lets her look like her normal self or the release appearance and uses her powers. (Side note she will still have the blue light cover her body and break away as stated in “Resereccion Release Phrase/Release Actions”. Just her form will not change while doing this action.)


•synesthesia: this is a curse mark that Suzu has developed which can be considered strong or weak and can have negative or positive effects depending on its use and who it's used on. This mark can switch any two skill levels with any other two skill levels the person has on their app. the mark will only go away if suzu dispels it. If she does not dispel it the mark last throughout the thread. But it’s also limited to being casted two times per thread. Suzu also must have physical contact in order to cast it. The effect of synesthesia will wear off after 10 posts( only post by the affected person counts) and the skills that have been switched well go back to normal.

{Example} if someone had a master in strength and an advanced in another skill. She can make the other skill a master and the strength go down to advanced. Why would she do this? It can completely make her opponent rethink their strategy and throw off their normal way of fighting. Seeing how they would not have that strength they normally do. Or she could use it to switch someones pain endurance level with a lower skills level. Making the person less able to take the pain of battle.

How can it help someone? If one of her allies was completely strength based and had no speed she could switch their lesser speed skill with another one of their skills that is at a higher level. This is always risky as it will make someone stronger in one area and weaker in another. Another example is if she could switch someone’s Durability with a higher skills level. So to better defend them self.

•Razor disk: Suzu can make her reiryoku form a saw blade like a metal ring. She can control only 2 at a time using her hands or fingers to guide it. She can make 5 of the blades. A Razor disk is a max of 2foot long and a minimum of 1foot. Max spin speed of 550,000 rpms. That means it spins around more than 10,000 times each second!

•Enhanced Bala machine gun: her ability to fire Rapid consecutive Bala blasts at the enemy with high energy concentration. susu is capable of firing 300 bala's per second. but finds this too costly energy-wise so is rarely done.

•Rapid Cero: she can fire a normal cero without warning. this is from the level of energy flowing thru her body making there no need to charge a normal one.

•Absorption: By placing her hands on something she can break it down to a Particle state and absorb it into her body as pure information. By absorbing she makes a complete copy both of its ability's and full atomic structure, the info is then saved inside her mind. As well the ability's she gets in this method can only be used for reproduction in weapons normally. To place abilities into a living thing will require experimenting on that person if its a player-character. This in combination with her matter ability allows for on the spot reproduction of items and even makes it possible to give the item abilities. drawbacks of the matter ability still apply such as focus/ flaws. A list of all absorbed things will be made


1. Absorption only needs a couple of particles to make the copy of the pure information and that is all it will take in. what that means is that she can't just completely absorb someone else stuff. only a small unnoticeable amount. she also can only do this by placing her hands on it, meaning she will need to be close. In regards to her own items, she can completely absorb them.

2. Experiment on a player must complete all the requirements of Genetic enhancement and infusion to be valid. This has a lot of the key stipulations and drawbacks.

3. Absorption can take in all types of matter particles but it cannot copy full abilities if not from an item/magic. Absorption can only produce the information on someone personal abilities to a small extent. namely, it can take in the atomic structure, what this means is if someone shoot a bala at her and she used Absorption on it all it would tell her is that it is harden reatsu. in a sense, all she gets is what the Ability is made of. not how to use it. or what its effects really are.


•Cero-body: she can fire cero's from many of her body parts. the body parts are as listed. feet, hands/fingers, elbow, knees,

•Matter Manipulation: this is an advanced form of her "Form sword" Suzu can now control matter and subsequently manipulating any form of matter at will. Controlling both the shape and density of it making her able to use any number of weapons. This may include her own body. suzu can easily form matter seemingly out of nothing. But this is not true it's quite simply the formula e=mc2. by the use of nonliving matter around her, she can break it down to the potential energy that it holds and make said potential energy reform into new matter. This new matter being a forged item of some kind. the item can be made to disappear after she is done using it.

Limitations: this cannot be used for energy or a bomb of any kind as the matter is converted to energy and back into matter instantly. So she cannot use the potential energy of the matter in any other way than reforming it to another form of matter. More complex items it will take planning for and time. So she can't just make a deeply intricate gun right off the top of her head. Basic weapons can be made at a whim such as plane swords and things. A list of the complex items she has thought up will be made. As well it takes a lot of mental ability to make a weapon right so if she is ever under any form of mental stress the item could have flaws in its forging making it easily breakable or not function right. Complex items will also have their own limitations and need staff approval before use.


•High-speed flight and movements: Suzu has modified her body where it can move at Speeds on par with any within her skill level. Speed is one of her primary aspects. Moving this fast is almost effortless for her and does not cause her body any more stress than a normal human going thru the daily motions. This is in part due to utilizing the modern day technology like that in the Xeon Hover Car propulsion system and re-engineering it for her own use. Seeing how she cannot go the full 100,000mph it can be assumed that she was not able to fully engineer it properly into her body. But that would be wrong. Suzu has it set up to only go within the limits of what her body can withstand. Going at its full speed would be stressful on her body and could lead to damage or even death quickly. So limits are in place to make such ungodly speed unreachable.

Ethereal Transcendence

---

{Ethereal Transcendence} Name: chrysalis

{Transcendence actions}: A hole forms in body symbolizing her past as a hollow. This hole can be in her chest or her hand as those are the places it used to be. In the center of the hole, a pitch black energy ball will start to form as she speaks her release phrase. As the ball expands and fills the hole her body is also covered with a black coating. This black coating that once covered her whole body will then flow across her body and take the shape of new apparel and reviling what she truly is.

{Release Phrase}: Discard the pseudo-self and let them tremble in my reality.

{Reiatsu levels}: suzu’s Reiatsu at this point is unlike any of her other forms. It does not have the feel of any known race to it as it is unique to her. Those with advanced mental deduction would feel something that was like a Vizard yet still different. People with master or grandmaster could tell what she is. A being that had broken the boundary between Hollow and Shinigami with a faint hint of a demon. suzu’s reiatsu cannot be felt by anyone 1-2 or lower when in this form and this fact allows those lower to not be effect by her Vast Spiritual Power ability when she is in this form. This allows them to move and attack without feeling its limiting effect on them.

{Spiritual Energy Color}: purple and black

Appearance Photo:



•Inheritance Recall: This form is quite literally suzu calling on all her power. It’s normal for a Arrancar to keep their base/ Previous forms abilities when going into a Release form. With this is a little different. In this form, some of her other old ability are not usable or changed some for the better and others even made weaker.

~Un-usable list: (1)Broadcasted (2) Soul-Body Separation (3)Hasten chamber (4)Genetic enhancement (5)soul forging (6)Form control (7)Bilocation as this is the one true her she cannot split herself or be split to use this form.

Weaker abilities:
~Vast Spiritual Power (can now only affect those 1-1 or better. What this means overall is that as it would affect someone in her own class my 20% like normal the only one that can get affected by 40% is a 1-1. All lower can still move freely. This also removed the possibility of Vast Spiritual Power going over 40%. So that no one can be affected by 70% to 100% making the skill a lot weaker in this form. )

~ Rapid processing: This is the only one of her abilities that changes for the better. Her mental ability to process information speeds up when in this form. This thereby reduces the time needed to analyze and learn something by half. This does not reduce its cooldown or boost its recall limit.

•Sonic blade: This is a production of her force. A wise man was once asked what the best weapon was. The man looked back at the person and said: “it’s not the weapon but the person wielding it that matters.” These words ring true for almost anything in Suzu’s hands can become a deadly weapon. a simple swipe of her hand can generate a blade of air that brakes the sound barrier and has the same cutting power as a sword would. When mixing this power with weapons is where the real danger comes in. for if one was to clash blades with her. Yes, they stopped the physical blade but the sonic one would flow on past. Possibly caching them off guard.

•Energy and force control: Suzu’s power seems to have a level of consciousness of its own. A good example of this is how her energy seems to only damage things she would want it to. This meaning she can fire a cero with more than enough power to blow up everything around her, but after the blast is done only a single tree leaf was destroyed. Everything else is left unharmed by her. Suzu sees no point in destroying the land or things around you and dos not think like other people. Some may brag about how they can shoot a cero that can destroy a skyscraper, suzu would laugh at these people as she can shoot a cero that only destroys what it was supposed to.

•Aura Barrier: This is the energy field her body normally produces and works as her Vast Spiritual Power energy description when in this form. The scale it works on is the same as Vast Spiritual Power’s originally was but no longer affect the whole area. Instead only affect the area immediately around her body. This ability does not stack up with Vast Spiritual Power. So those that are still affected by it cannot be susceptible to this as well.

•Cellular re-creation and bonding: At first glance, one might think she has a rapid healing ability but that is quite simply not true. Suzu using her matter ability re-creates missing cells. She also uses this to move the matter that makes up her own body back together and rebounding it back in its proper place. This resembles rapid healing in appearance and most would be tricked into thinking it is the same. But to see its difference all you need to do is pierce her heart. An act that is deadly to almost all beings, but this does not stop her mind from rebuilding it. The true limits of this power are that as long as she got the energy to use she will keep fighting unless her head is destroyed. For as long as she can think and as long as she gots energy she will just restore her body.


•Mastery of Mysticism: By the Study of divers magics of the world she has a treasure trove of information in her mind in regards to all forms of spells. Rather it is the Shinigami kido, demon magic, or what have you. This plethora of occult knowledge is utilized with her being able to cast even complex spells and thing on the fly, or even getting creative and making new ones up on the spot. But this does not stop there Suzu is foremost a scientist and the true power in this is when she applies it to the other knowledge she has.

One example of this is let’s say Suzu was fighting an electric user, and let’s say this electric user somehow exploded a water tank and flooded the ground. Water does normally amplify electric currents this is true. This would make the whole field there fighting in a death-trap. But with suzu’s scientific knowledge she knows that absolutely pure water, with no impurities, is, in fact, a perfect insulator. Therefore by using her occult knowledge, she can remove all its impurities thereby nullifying the electric via the use of both scientific and magical knowledge together.

- Tite Kubo

Name: Byakuya Kuchiki
Alias: The Thousandth Cherry Blossom, 28th Head of the Kuchiki, Former Captain of Squad Six, Angel of the Cherry Blossom, Nii-san (Rukia)
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male

Association/Affiliation

Gotei, Seireitei, & Soul Society: As his home and where his allies, friends, and family reside, this is another one of Byakuya’s top loyalties, outside of his family. To begin things: His personal feelings towards the Gotei. These are something that Byakuya finds to be the most complex and complicated thing than anything else. For him, he is worried about the Gotei. He knows that the Gotei 13 hierarchy has lasted for quite a long time, before being minimized to the Gotei Reformed. While he was able to accept that it was a necessary change to the organization, it was done in such a way that only made the Gotei feel more empty than it should have been. Finally, it became the version of the organization that people know (at the time of writing this), the Gotei United. With Ibiki Suika as the Captain Commander, and with most of the organization filled to near the brim with members that have shown and proven themselves to be able to handle themselves, Byakuya’s worry has, for the most part, dissipated over the years.

But, there is still something that he is wary of as of recently. With two reformations of the Gotei in a relatively small time span, it makes him think that this may end up changing the Gotei to such an extent, that the Gotei that he knew, loved, and sought to protect and serve for will be gone. As for the Seireitei and Soul Society? Concern for its safety. While Byakuya has no doubt that the new inventions and defensive measures put up by the new age of Shinigami are more than enough to at least help protect them, his concern rises as the threat of war, and the recent invasion of Soul Society looms over the Seireitei like a chilling omen. It is something that has caused Byakuya’s guard to solidify even further, which has caused him to act a great deal more than what he normally would have, in past times. With the constant threat hanging over both his head and the rest of the Soul Society’s head, Byakuya Kuchiki’s loyalty to his home has seemed to be burned even further into his soul.

Kuchiki Family: The Kuchiki Family is -- like Soul Society, the Gotei, and the Seireitei as a whole -- one of Byakuya’s prime loyalties. As the 28th Head of the family, it should not be a surprise that loyalty and care to the members of it are one of his top priorities. While this is a prime case for Rukia Kuchiki, his adoptive sister, this has also been known to extend to other members of the Kuchiki Family, such as Yoko Yuri Kuchiki -- a girl that Byakuya has been known to treat with as much love and care as Rukia. However, like Rukia, this has also sparked quite a bit of fear deep within him as of recent times. During his quest of self-improvement, he caught wind of the situation with Yoko and the mysterious virus from the Human World, leading him to worry about her well-being, as well as being a contributor to his recent ending of this quest, returning to the world once more.

Rukia Kuchiki: Love, care, and fear. That is what he feels for his adoptive sister. In order to continue to abide by his promise to Hisana, Rukia has always been someone that Byakuya cares deeply for, despite his icy demeanor and his unmoving pride. He has smothered her because of this, with his previous lack of affection for her growing in the passing time. This can go as far as to Byakuya outright stating that he’s proud of her, that he loves her, or even being subtle -- such as when he gave Rukia and Renji safety cloaks to protect them against Hueco Mundo’s harsh sands. However, he still has quite a deal of fear for Rukia’s safety, which has only been increased as the times have moved on. Power is so much larger in this day and age. And with Rukia in the midst of it, Byakuya fears that his promise to Hisana might be broken very soon.

Ichigo Kurosaki: Reckless and rude. Those are the first words that come to mind when he thinks of this man. While he does respect Ichigo’s skill and power, along with his feats, but that does not excuse him of the irritation that he feels whenever Ichigo addresses people like Yamamoto or himself without the full respect that they deserve, especially when it comes to figures like Yamamoto. But, nevertheless, Byakuya is fully aware that he is practically powerless to it, and has learned to simply adapt to it, however maddening it is to hear him simply disregard their status and importance.

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto: The previous Captain Commander of the Gotei 13, and the man who originated the organization. While he is long since dead, Byakuya still respects Yamamoto to this day, his actions becoming ever more resolute in order to continue the man’s legacy. Since Yamamoto’s death in Ender’s War, many say that this news is what caused Byakuya to isolate himself for even longer so that he could make sure that when he came out -- he would have an absolute certainty that there was a sense of change in the connection between himself and Senbonzakura.

Kenpachi Zaraki: A true barbarian. This man -- although Byakuya manages to hold a semblance of respect to him for his achievement and place as a Captain in the olden days -- still finds this man highly disturbing as he believes in nothing but power, and fun within his fights -- an aspect that Byakuya finds entirely repulsive. Although he has only mentioned this aloud once -- before/during the fight against Yammy Llargo -- it is still something that bothers him to this day. As a result of this, Byakuya has been known to avoid Kenpachi altogether, as he believes that such a barbarian does not deserve or need his presence.

Appearance Written:

Appearance Image:




Level-Headed: Byakuya often does not seem to display any emotion whatsoever. That is because he has an immense amount of control over himself; almost as if he had beaten it into himself that he must always be in control of his actions and emotions. He rarely shows his outer emotions to anyone; friend or foe, unless they have taken him past the point of his shell. Negative emotions easily escape his shell and apply themselves through his outer shell. Positive emotions are much more difficult to escape his shell, and you can easily tell when he has released them.

Internal Conflict: However, despite his powerful outer shell, his inner one is almost in a perpetual state of conflict. He has a duty to defending the rules of soul society, an extremely powerful duty towards it. However, the problem happens when someone e cares about breaks a rule; and he is left with having to make the decision for himself on whether to help them or not. IN the end, when pushed all the way, he himself discovered that between the laws and his vows, he chose his vows.

Noble Birth: Byakuya is most definitely a noble being. He holds himself in an impassioned way, as befitting a person of nobility. This outer shell is very difficult for one to break, as they are well trained, a very part of his being and closely related to his determination in obeying the rules. However, because of this, he feels an immense link to anything having to do with his nobility and treats pride as a very real and very valuable thing, which should not be broken under any circumstances.

Fighting Style: His fighting style is very stationary; this is reflected in the way his Zanpakuto has manifested itself. It requires he himself to have to expend as little energy as possible unless he really wants to kill his opponent. Most of the time, he stands there, completely relaxed, only making one or two blows if he can to finish off an opponent, and failing that uses his Shikai so that he doesn't have to move much from there, merely swinging his sword to rapidly cut down and punish his opponents.

Impatient: However, he really is an impatient person. He dislikes having to go through long fights, as well as having to wait to get what he wants. While he mostly has this under control, he used to be extremely arrogant about it. It is still possible to see this nature reflected in his actions, however. It is most obvious in the way he prefers to take down opponents, striking them down quickly and effortlessly, or else putting his all into it to make sure that they are killed. He doesn't like drawn out things; when he runs into a problem, he does his best to have it fixed as soon as possible.

Obey The Law: Byakuya has a strong affinity for the law. He greatly dislikes any who break the law and attempts to rapidly perform Punishment on them. He very rarely says that he intends to kill anyone, and instead merely desires to greatly harm them so that they can learn the errors of their ways, and become productive members of society once more. He also carries out the law without hesitation; as those who break the laws bring nothing but conflict and strife to all of society. Overall, Byakuya has a hard shell but truly does have some compassion. This is shown in his love of the law; which he carries out for the good of society. He may be impatient beneath his noble surface, but this was a process that developed gradually, over time in his life; it is not his true nature. This often leads to him coming off as arrogant at times, because of how he views his own nobility; although it is not normally his intent to seem as if he has an ego.

Pride: Perhaps the hardest trait to ignore is Byakuya's pride. He firmly believes in his position in life, and strongly detests those who would challenge it. These individuals are the ones whom he dismisses the quickest and finds starting a physical conflict against the easiest. For Byakuya Kuchiki, holding onto the idea of one's self is extremely valuable.

Future Persona Shit, Don't Look:

Byakuya was born into the Kuchiki family and grew up in the Kuchiki mansion in Seireitei. He would spend countless hours training, preparing to take over the leadership of the Kuchiki family. Yoruichi Shihōin would often visit the Kuchiki Manor to play a game of tag with Byakuya. On one such occasion, approximately 110 years ago, she is presented to a training Byakuya by his grandfather Ginrei Kuchiki. Upon seeing Yoruichi, he attacked and insulted her.

Yoruichi playfully teased him, complaining about his greeting after coming all the way there to see him. Byakuya, expressing his displeasure at seeing her, stated he would be the head of the Kuchiki clan soon enough, so he had no time to waste on her. Yoruichi, stealing his hair tie, exclaimed that if the head of Kuchiki clan could get his hair tie stolen by a girl at play, she worried about its future. She used Shunpo to escape from him, leaving an angry Byakuya, claiming his superiority, promising to make her see the error of her ways.

Fifty-five years ago, Byakuya married Hisana Kuchiki, a commoner from Rukongai, breaking the rules by accepting her into the noble Kuchiki family. Five years after the marriage, she became sick and was near death. Hisana asked Byakuya to find and adopt her biological sister, Rukia, whom she had abandoned as a baby, as her final wish. She made him promise he would not tell Rukia she is her sister. One year later, Byakuya, finding Rukia at the Shin'ō Academy, immediately adopted her into the Kuchiki clan. By adopting her, Byakuya respected his late wife's final wish but had broken the rules of his clan again. He later swore upon his parents' graves he would never break the rules again, no matter what.

Less than 49 years ago, not long before Rukia joined the Gotei 13, Byakuya became the captain of the 6th Division. Gin Ichimaru, becoming captain of the 3rd Division at the same time, would often start conversations with Byakuya when they crossed paths.

Byakuya first appears on a mission with his lieutenant, Renji Abarai, to capture and return Rukia Kuchiki to Soul Society and kill Ichigo Kurosaki. He watches as Renji attacks Rukia, and stands by as Uryū Ishida enters the conflict between the two. Shortly after Renji defeats Ishida, Byakuya, bearing witness to the arrival of Ichigo, watches as Renji engages him. When Renji is almost hit by Ichigo, Byakuya tells his lieutenant he is being too careless, but Renji simply states Ichigo is nothing to worry about. Byakuya explains he knew Ichigo looked familiar, as 33 hours ago, Special Forces obtained his image after he fought a Menos Grande, giving it a scar.

Eventually, Ichigo gains the upper hand against Renji. As he prepares for a finishing strike, Byakuya cuts Ichigo's sword in two and subsequently inflicts a grievous wound on his chest. Byakuya asks Renji if something is wrong, who tells him there was no need for him to directly attack Ichigo, as he could have finished him. Byakuya tells him not to be like that, for if he is always the spectator, his skills may degrade. When Rukia runs to Ichigo's body, Byakuya asks her if she would still go to Ichigo's side after all that has just happened, and tells her he understands, as he does resemble "him". Ichigo, coming to, grabs Byakuya's leg. Byakuya tells him to let go, but Ichigo defiantly tells him he can’t hear him, and he should look at him when talking to him. Kicking his arm away, Rukia scolds Ichigo and tells Byakuya she is ready to leave. She asks Byakuya to leave Ichigo be, to which he agrees. He states Ichigo should die from his injuries in a half hour, and if he does survive, his Shinigami powers will be gone. He has Renji open a Senkaimon back to Soul Society.

Later, in Soul Society, Byakuya informs Rukia she is to be executed for her crimes. Later, he comes across 11th Division Captain Kenpachi Zaraki and3rd Division Captain Gin Ichimaru, both of them teasing him about Rukia being sentenced to death as a criminal. Byakuya says he didn't think lower class people could understand the feelings of nobles. Byakuya and Kenpachi bicker and threaten each other, but Gin steps in, ending the dispute, and they leave.

Soul Society Arc

Byakuya is present during the captain's emergency meeting called by Captain-Commander Yamamoto, where he remains silent throughout the bickering between his fellow captains. Upon Renji's defeat by Ichigo, Renji is brought to a secure location and watched over by lieutenants Izuru Kira and Momo Hinamori, who discuss calling for the 4th Division's medics. Byakuya tells them there is no need, as Renji is to be thrown in jail. When Momo pleads with him, Byakuya tells her that since Renji went alone to fight, it is unacceptable that he lost. Momo asks him how he can say that, but she is stopped by Izuru, who apologizes to Byakuya before a reluctant Momo does the same.

Byakuya later interrupts Ganju Shiba and Hanatarō Yamada's attempt to rescue Rukia from the Shishinrō. Byakuya tells Ganju he had sensed some faint spiritual pressure going toward Shishinrō, initially thinking it was someone strong hiding their reiatsu, but it turned out to be a big fat bug. When Ganju attacks, Byakuya, severely damaging Ganju's arm, tells him to be gone. Ganju tells him a coward who could be scared away by such an attack does not exist in the Shiba family. Upon hearing his family name, Byakuya, apologizing for not hitting Ganju harder, ignores Rukia's plea and releases his Shikai, severely injuring Ganju.

As Byakuya prepares to finish off Ganju, he is stopped by Jūshirō Ukitake, who states the release of a Zanpakutō in Konnatokoru is the first-class offense. Byakuya informs him of the special wartime orders, which had been activated, lifting this ban. Byakuya and Ukitake sense the arrival of a strong spiritual pressure at the level of a captain. Ichigo, showing up, attempts to engage Byakuya in combat. Ukitake asks Byakuya who Ichigo is, but Byakuya says he is no one.

After a brief exchange of words, Byakuya states he doesn't know how Ichigo has reacquired Shinigami powers, but he should have resumed his normal Human Life. After failing in an attempt to use Senka on Ichigo, Byakuya releases Senbonzakura's Shikai but is stopped by Yoruichi. Byakuya, recognizing her, watches as she knocks Ichigo out. When Byakuya states she will not be able to escape easily, Yoruichi asks him if he ever won even one time against her in a game of tag, and Byakuya asks if they should try again. The two engage in a test of speed using Shunpo, with Yoruichi, carrying an unconscious Ichigo, staying a step ahead of Byakuya. Yoruichi, moving to the top of a nearby building, yells down to Byakuya that in three days, she will make Ichigo stronger than him, and their fight is on hold until then. She flees with Ichigo. Byakuya, leaving the area, tells Ukitake he has lost interest, and that Ukitake can do whatever he wants to do with the Ryoka.

After the date of Rukia's execution is moved up, Ukitake tries to convince Byakuya to try to stop it. Byakuya simply brushes him off, saying he will honor Central 46's decision. When Ukitake's illness flares up, Byakuya tells him not to become worked up over it, reminding him of the loss of his former lieutenant. Stating Rukia is a member of his family and not Ukitake's, he insists it does not concern Ukitake.

On the morning of Rukia's execution, Byakuya is in his quarters, praying at the shrine to his wife, when he is told the execution is about to commence. He, saying goodbye to Hisana's picture, departs for the execution grounds. Before reaching Sōkyoku Hill, he encounters Renji, who, having escaped from jail, has fought his way through his fellow 6th Division members in a bid to save Rukia. Upon learning of Renji's intentions, Byakuya states he will not allow him to do so. Byakuya tries to use Senka to defeat Renji swiftly, but his lieutenant blocks the attack. Byakuya attempts to release his Shikai, but Renji stops it with his own Shikai. Renji, telling Byakuya of his long-standing desire to surpass him, activates his Bankai.

Byakuya, somewhat surprised, asks Renji when he acquired Bankai. Renji tells him he will never know since he never cared about his subordinates. Renji attacks his captain, who affirms he is indeed using Bankai. Byakuya uses his Shikai to attack Renji's Bankai, seemingly breaking it apart. However, it reconstitutes itself, briefly forcing Byakuya to his knee. As Renji tries to attack again, Byakuya uses Sōkatsui, disrupting the movements of his Bankai, before binding Renji with Rikujōkōrō. Byakuya, releasing his Bankai, grievously injures Renji.

Byakuya tells Renji he should be proud to still retain the form of his body after being struck by his Bankai. Renji, refusing to give up, lunges at Byakuya, who uses his Bankai to immobilize him. Commenting on the disappearance of Renji's Bankai, he threatens to kill him. Renji, telling him he swore on his soul to save Rukia, attempts to attack him again, but his sword breaks upon contact, and he falls to the ground, defeated. Byakuya throws his scarf on top of Renji, congratulating him on having given Byakuya a superficial injury, before leaving.

Byakuya, arriving at Rukia's execution, refuses to look at his sister. As Rukia's execution commences, Byakuya is greatly surprised at the arrival and interference of Ichigo. Byakuya looks on as Ichigo saves Rukia, and after Ichigo easily dispatches three lieutenants, Byakuya attacks him. When Ichigo asks Byakuya why he is not trying to save Rukia, Byakuya, brushes it off, states Ichigo would not understand. The two clash and Byakuya state he will kill Ichigo and execute Rukia himself.

Byakuya, taunted by Ichigo, releases his Shikai, only for Ichigo to counter it with a Getsuga Tenshō, which injures Byakuya's left hand. Byakuya, activating his Bankai, wounds Ichigo, who admits his error of using only his Shikai. Unimpressed, Byakuya says he is talking as though he has achieved Bankai, which Ichigo claims is the case. Byakuya, not believing him, looks on in disbelief as Ichigo activates his Bankai, Tensa Zangetsu. Before Byakuya, who is confused by the small size of the Bankai, can attack, Ichigo, getting up close, points the tip of his blade at Byakuya's throat. He asks Byakuya if pride has anything to do with Rukia's execution, because if so, he will step all over it.

When Ichigo backs off, Byakuya calls him arrogant for not attacking when he had the chance. They continue fighting until Ichigo becomes so fast, Senbonzakura Kageyoshi is unable to keep up with him. Byakuya begins using his hand to direct his Bankai, causing it to move even faster. However, Ichigo fends it off and, before Byakuya realizes it, appears behind him and stabs the captain. Realizing the power of Ichigo's Bankai, Byakuya, promising to destroy it, activates his Senkei technique. As they continue, Byakuya notes Ichigo's movements are becoming slower. Byakuya, calling forth one of the surrounding swords to stab Ichigo in the foot, pierces Ichigo's shoulder with Byakurai. Byakuya, commending him on having made it as far as he did, says he must realize by now this is the end. He prepares for a finishing blow, but Ichigo's inner Hollow, taking over, stops Byakuya's attack.

A stunned Byakuya is slashed across his chest. Regaining his composure, he dodges a black Getsuga Tenshō. Seeing the Hollow mask, Byakuya asks if he is a Hollow, but Ichigo, ripping off the mask, apologizes for the Hollow’s interference. Byakuya, agreeing to ignore what just transpired, points out neither of them has the strength to continue this for much longer. They agree to end the battle with the next blow. When Ichigo asks Byakuya why he won’t save Rukia, Byakuya tells him he will answer that question if Ichigo defeats him. Byakuya uses the technique Shūkei, Hakuteiken, and the two, charging at each other, release a torrent of powerful reiatsu.

Both are badly wounded by this, and Byakuya reveals his reasons for not saving Rukia. Ichigo tells him that if he was in his position, he would fight the rules. Byakuya realizes Ichigo was fighting Soul Society's rules rather than him personally and muses that Ichigo has the same personality as Kaien Shiba. Byakuya, telling Ichigo his ferocity has shattered his blade and he will no longer pursue Rukia's death, leaves the area.

Later, when Sōsuke Aizen orders Gin Ichimaru to kill Rukia, Byakuya, saving her life, takes the attack with his body instead. Overwhelmed by his injuries, Byakuya collapses in Rukia's arms. While Captain Unohana treats him for his massive injuries, Byakuya, telling Rukia the truth of her past, explains why he was conflicted for so long between his promises to Hisana and his parents, making it hard for him to determine the role he should take when she was sentenced to be executed. He thanks Ichigo for helping him make his decision to save Rukia in the end, and apologizes to Rukia.

Arrancar Arc

Sometime after attending an emergency captains meeting, Byakuya travels to the Human World to retrieve Tōshirō Hitsugaya's team on Captain-Commander Yamamoto's order. He secretly allows Rukia and Renji to return to the Human World to assist in the rescue of Orihime Inoue, stating he was only ordered to bring them back to Soul Society, and what they chose to do afterward was none of his concern.

Hueco Mundo Arc

Byakuya is told Rukia and Renji have disappeared, and that the Second Division is looking for them throughout Seireitei. Byakuya later arrives in Las Noches just in time to save Rukia from the 7th Espada, Zommari Rureaux. Byakuya, refusing to tell the enemy who he is, asks him if he is the one who injured Rukia. Zommari tells him he is not the one, but he was going to finish the job.

The pair demonstrate their speed, with Zommari, claiming to have the fastest Sonido among the Espada, explaining his Gemelos Sonido allows him to create quasi-clones. Byakuya, criticizing him for revealing his ability, uses Utsusemi to escape one of Zommari's attacks. After the pair exchange criticisms and taunts, Zommari, releasing his Zanpakutō, uses his Amor ability to take control of Byakuya's left leg. Byakuya responds by severing the tendons of his left leg. Zommari turns his attention to the unconscious Rukia, but Byakuya shields her body with his own. Hanatarō Yamada follows Byakuya onto the battlefield, but Byakuya orders Hanatarō back to avoid him getting caught up in the battle.

When Byakuya realizes Zommari has taken possession of his left hand, he, cutting the tendons, uses Shō to free Rukia from the ice, instructing Hanatarō to fall back with her. Zommari, revealing he has taken control of Rukia's head and thus controls her entire body, has her slash Hanatarō across the chest. He warns Byakuya to drop his sword, or he will force Rukia to slit her own throat. Byakuya, restraining Rukia with Rikujōkōrō, releases his Bankai. Zommari, becoming desperate, tries to use the full range of his power to control Byakuya's Bankai, but Byakuya, stating there are too many blades for Zommari to control, activates his "Gōkei" technique to crush Zommari.

Surviving, Zommari tries to use his power to gain control of Byakuya, who counters by using Dankū. Byakuya explains that when he used Kidō to stop Rukia's possession, he deduced Zommari's ability to possess was somewhat like Kidō, so it could be canceled out by Kidō. Zommari, begging for mercy, asks him to show some compassion. He angrily shouts at Byakuya that Shinigami are arrogant, taking an unnatural authority to proclaim Hollows as evil. Byakuya, impassive, states he fought him because Zommari attacked Byakuya's pride (referring to Rukia) and kills him. Byakuya instructs Isane Kotetsu to come out of her hiding place and take care of Rukia and Hanatarō. When Rukia wakes up while being healed, Byakuya, brushing off her concern, tells her to rest, as there is a much bigger fight coming.

Fake Karakura Town Arc

As Yammy Llargo is about to crush Ichigo, Byakuya fires Sōkatsui at the Espada, while Kenpachi Zaraki cuts off one of Yammy's legs. The two captains bicker for a while. As Kenpachi begins to fight Yammy on his own, Byakuya stops Ichigo from joining the fight, telling him he has to return to the Human World. Mayuri Kurotsuchi appears with a cart, which Byakuya asks him about, before opening a Garganta. Ichigo begins to protest again, but Byakuya reminds him that his true duty is to protect Karakura Town, convincing Ichigo to go. He asks Mayuri why he chose to remain in Hueco Mundo when there must have been more things on Earth which would have piqued his curiosity. Mayuri, assuring him he is not plotting anything, states there are "more interesting" corpses in Hueco Mundo, and he will examine the Human World later. Byakuya says he is surprised to hear such words coming from Mayuri since it sounds like he believes in Ichigo and his ability to end the war.

As Byakuya watches Kenpachi take down Yammy, the battle-crazed captain asks Byakuya to finish off Yammy. Byakuya tells him that is a job for a barbarian like Kenpachi. Yammy, getting back up fires a Cero at them. They both dodge the Cero, and as they continue to bicker, Byakuya releases his Bankai. Yammy's huge form is knocked off-balance by their powerful attack, and he uses his anger to transform. He warns the captains that making him angrier is the last thing they want to do, as his release increases in strength the angrier he becomes.

After defeating Yammy, Byakuya and Kenpachi exit a Garganta in Soul Society. The 4th Division immediately responds to their arrival, taking note that while both are standing, they are horribly injured. After their injuries are treated, Byakuya and Kenpachi, along with Shunsui, are scolded by Yamamoto for losing their respective haori. When the captains take the matter lightly, with Byakuya saying he can easily replace the cheap material, Yamamoto grows even angrier.

Current Day

Surprisingly, Byakuya Kuchiki has remained mostly in the shadows ever since the end of the events in the Fake Karakura Town. He has remained in the Kuchiki Family Manor ever since, rarely leaving other than for official business, or extremely important matters. After the victory over Yammy Llargo, Byakuya has remained in solitude for one main reason -- to come to a better understanding of himself, and Senbonzakura. Thus, for a very long time, Byakuya would remain in the quiet, nigh-abandoned home of the Kuchiki in states of deep meditation to enter his Inner World and confront his Zanpakuto spirit for days upon weeks on end. This lasted for so many months and years, that he had lost count. But now, Byakuya Kuchiki is back. With this new connection between the master and spirit, the pair will continue to obey and enforce the law that they have worked so hard to protect and cultivate for the future generation.



Immense Spiritual Prowess: As one of the oldest captains in what was previously known as the Gotei 13, Byakuya has always shown to have a tremendous amount of spiritual power. This does not just come down to simply his spiritual pressure, what many consider to be the weight of one’s spirit energy, but rather, goes even further. As someone with extreme skill in Kido, it should not come as a surprise that Byakuya has quite the vast amount of energy within his body that is able to be used at his beck and call. This allows him to use highly draining attacks (in terms of spirit energy) without too much of a drawback as some others might have, such as being able to cast Bakudo #81, Danku, in quick succession against the Arrancar Zommari. Thus, it should be noted that Byakuya as a whole should not be underestimated.

Master Swordsman: With one of the sharpest Zanpakuto to ever exist, Byakuya is quite reliant on his Zanpakuto in a fight. As a result of this over the hundreds of years of the usage of the weapon, his skill in the way of the sword is among some of the best. Able to wield both his Sealed Zanpakuto as well as Shikai with masterful skill, this is another one of Byakuya’s largest skills. While he is by no means the best -- preferring to keep his skill between Kido and Zanjutsu at an equal -- he is most certainly among them due to his position as Head of the Kuchiki Family, former status as the 6th Division Captain, as well as being able to prove this in combat with the usage of various Zanjutsu techniques known to the Shinigami, and even going as far as to using the common style of the samurai of Japan, Iaido, in combination with Zanjutsu techniques, or even using this with Senbonzakura’s powers in order to gain an advantage or deliver a killing blow.

Shunpo Master: Being trained by the Flash Goddess herself, Byakuya is a very well-versed fighter when it comes to the art of Shunpo. Being able to keep up with Yoruichi Shihoin -- although still never able to beat her -- as well as other Shinigami who are considered masters in the skill, Byakuya is quite a deadly force. This has even gone as far as to when it comes to the techniques of Shunpo that Byakuya has mastered in 400 years, Senka (閃花, Flash Blossom) and Utsusemi (空蝉, Cast-Off Cicada Shell), which have been improved to where Byakuya has been able to move even faster to use Senka with even further efficiency, and for Utsusemi to be used multiple times in succession if the moment were to call for it. Furthermore, his skill has even shown to be able to use Shunpo itself after severing the muscles and tendons in his left leg in his fight with Zommari. While he has still never been able to beat Yoruichi, he is certainly not far behind her.

Kido Master: Through the countless examples in his past, Byakuya has always been known to use Kido as a secondary skill for him. The third skill that he specializes in of the Shinigami racial skills as well as his most versatile, outside of Shunpo, Byakuya has been shown to have a vast knowledge of Kido spells and their effects, allowing him to easily deduce what Kido spell would work best against his enemy. It also has been shown that Byakuya’s skill ceiling with Kido numbers is rather high, able to produce multiple high-level Bakudo spells in quick succession and without an incantation, driving this fact even further. However, this does not only come from extremely powerful spells. With such a large amount of power, Byakuya is able to even increase the power of spells such as Byakurai, Hadō #4, to the point of burning a hole in Ichigo’s shoulder in a single usage of the spell. So, one should always take extreme care when entering combat with Byakuya, for even if his sword is gone, he still has quite the arsenal left to attack with.

Hakuda Proficiency: This is one of Byakuya’s lesser skills, as a sword is always seen in his hand, with his fights rarely ever coming down to hand to hand combat. However, being someone who managed to have a Captain position 400 years ago, Byakuya has at least a semblance of skill within the realm of Hakuda. While his full potential is unknown, he does at least have enough of a skill level to be able to defend himself accordingly against most other attackers, whether it be from a blade or hand. While those who are extremely skilled have potential to overpower him, it is not a situation that Byakuya finds himself in very often, as not many disarm him very often, and his sword is rarely not used.

Master Tactician: As someone who has a very “solitary” battle stance, Byakuya is someone who prefers to analyze an enemy, rather than attempt to just override them with raw power. Thus, it should be noted that he is quite skilled at doing this, able to deduce attacks movements within minutes or even seconds of witnessing them. While this does not mean he is able to avoid attacks instantly, or that he can instantly know the weaknesses of attacks or anything like that, this does however, grant him a slightly better vision of the battlefield, a natural increase of perception, such as when he fought against Zommari and was able to deduce that the ability of his Resurreccion was similar to a Shinigami’s Kido, with him being able to come to the conclusion that it would be able to be countered with Kido, leading Byakuya to test this theory with the uses of Bakudo #81: Danku, which soon brought upon the demise of the Arrancar. Furthermore, this has even shown to go as far as to pre-battle strategy, with Byakuya being able to make preparations for when he enters the field, always making sure that he has everything he needs, as well as looking out for the munitions of his allies.

Immense Endurance & Durability: Being a former Captain in the Gotei, Byakuya has a rather high level of endurance and durability. While these mainly tie-in as one with his feats in the two sections of physical health, he has been known to be able to take many powerful hits without much of an issue, having taken a direct hit to the chest from Gin Ichimaru’s Shikai, Shinso, something that would normally pierce right through him and kill him. Later, another showcase of this was against Ichigo Kurosaki, able to withstand a strike from his Inner Hollow, while Ichigo was also in Bankai, as well as withstanding a direct hit from a Kuroi Getsuga Tensho, still being able to fight -- as well as still being able to just stand. However, this has also been something that shows Byakuya’s iron will, and his ability to do what is necessary. During his fight against Yammy and Zommari, Byakuya was willing to sever his own tendons and muscles in an instant, without even flinching. So, like many Shinigami, Byakuya is by far easy to take down.
