Name: Renji Abarai
Gender: Male
Age: Around the same as Rukia Kuchiki
Appearance:

Renji Abarai Scaled.php?server=27&filename=renjig

Renji has brown eyes and long crimson hair, which is usually kept in a high ponytail. His upper body is covered in tribal tattoos. The amount of tattoos has increased over time, starting from his early days as a Shinigami candidate to covering his entire back and much of the front of his body and his extremities. He wears the standard Shinigami outfit, though he usually includes some sort of headgear, usually expensive glasses or a white headband when he is saving up to purchase some new glasses. While out of uniform, Renji often wears a white kimono-like type of night clothing, with pink floral patterns on it, and a dark grey sash tied around his waist, with bandages underneath. It has also been said 'that the women within his Division do not mind that he usually walks around in his night clothing'.

Personality:


Renji is quite dynamic. He varies from smug and cocky to disquieted and depressed after his major defeats, but shows himself to be an incredibly serious and determined fighter when confronted with an actual challenge. Willing to fight, kill, and die for whatever he believes in, Renji is a dangerous man to those who stand in his way. Yasutora Sado compares him to Ichigo Kurosaki when fighting. Renji likes taiyaki (a popular fish-shaped pancake usually filled with sweet bean paste) and dislikes spicy food. Renji likes futsal, and in his free time works on assembling a team from the 6th Division, with success, more or less. The current members are himself, Rikichi and the 4th, 8th, 13th and 20th seated officers.

All of Renji's sunglasses are from Seireitei's popular Gin Tonbo store and cost half a year's worth of his pay check. However, every time he wears a pair, they are broken in one way or another. On these occasions, he replaces them with a tied white towel, until he can purchase a new pair of goggles. His dream is to wear at least once, a pair that he himself designed.

History/Background:

Renji grew up in the 78th district of Rukongai, Inuzuri, with several other children. Having come to Soul Society alone, they helped each other to search for their families. One day, after stealing a jug of water, Renji and his friends were chased by a kama-wielding adult. Rukia tripped the adult and urged Renji's group to follow her to avoid losing the water. Rukia joined their group and they lived together as a family. They all hated Inuzuri and the people there. Renji was not happy that Rukia had spiritual power like he did. Ten years after Rukia joined the group, with all of their friends dead, Rukia proposed that they become Shinigami, which Renji agreed with. As they were quite gifted with spiritual powers, they entered the Shinō Academy with ease, where they struggled to prove their worth among those from noble families. The night before the welcoming ceremony for the new students of the Academy, Renji slept in a tree, against Rukia’s advice. The following morning, he fell out of the tree and landed on a headstone where a startled Izuru Kira had been praying. Having scored amongst the highest grades in the entrance exam, Renji was admitted into the top class along with Izuru and Momo Hinamori.

Two months after entering the Academy, Renji scolded Rukia for still not fitting in and informed her that he was going to the Human World for field training to practice Konsō for the first time. When being briefed on the field trip by Shūhei Hisagi, Kanisawa and Aoga, Renji failed to recognize Shūhei, who was to lead the mission. Izuru explained to him that Hisagi was famous and a gifted student. Renji, Izuru and Momo were assigned to the same group. When Momo joined them, Renji kicked Izuru because of how he greeted her, saying that he should not let his emotions show so easily. While in the Human World, Renji remarked that Konsō was a lot easier than he had imagined. He then lost his temper with the constantly fidgeting Izuru and punched him. As Shūhei called an end to their field trip, the group was attacked by a Huge Hollow, which killed Kanisawa and Aoga. Shūhei ordered the group to retreat while he stayed to fight the Hollow. When a second Huge Hollow appeared, Momo stopped and questioned why they were running away. Renji reminded Momo that the Hollow had just killed two sixth year students. When Momo rushed back towards Shūhei, Renji and Izuru followed her and helped to block the second Hollow’s attack on him. When more Huge Hollows showed up, they were saved by the arrival of Fifth Division Captain Sōsuke Aizen and his lieutenant, Gin Ichimaru. When Momo wondered if they would ever become as strong as Aizen and Ichimaru, Renji laughed at the notion and insisted that captains and lieutenants were monsters.

Having passed an important exam, Renji rushed to find Rukia to tell her. However, when he found her, she was with several Shinigami, including Byakuya Kuchiki. As they left, Renji noted Byakuya’s power, causing him to wonder who he was. Renji asked what they wanted and congratulated Rukia when she told him that they want to have her adopted into the Kuchiki family, have her graduate immediately and assigned to the 13th Division. Rukia thanked him and left. Renji told himself that Rukia finally had a family and that he should stay out of it. After Rukia left, Renji trained every day in a bid to beat Byakuya, but he was unable to defeat him even once.

Renji graduated from the Shinō Academy in its 2,066th year and joined the Gotei 13, where he initially served under Aizen in the 5th Division, along with Izuru and Momo. The rebellious Renji, however, was moved to the 11th Division and rose to the rank of 6th Seat. During his time in the 11th Division, he befriended Ikkaku Madarame, to whom he revealed that he wanted to become stronger than Byakuya Kuchiki. Ikkaku taught Renji how to fight and Renji became aware that Ikkaku had a Bankai, and requested that he use it to train Renji.

Forty years after Rukia’s adoption into the Kuchiki family, in mid-April, Momo and Izuru presented Renji with a letter stating that he was to be promoted to lieutenant of the 6th Division. He formally accepted Momo's words, which caused her to tell him not to be so uptight. Ikkaku told him that he was now a step closer to Byakuya and that his will had been strong for forty years, but now that he was a lieutenant, they should return to the type of relationship that they once shared. Izuru informed Renji that Rukia was leaving on a mission to the Human World that afternoon. When Momo urged him to hurry, Renji told her that he would wait until his promotion was made official a month later, and that when she returned, he would surprise her with it. On the 19th of July, along with Byakuya, Renji was sent to arrest Rukia and return her to Soul Society.

Having been tasked with arresting or killing Rukia, Renji travels to the Human World with Byakuya and discusses the merit of their orders. Using his goggles, Renji identifies Rukia and confirms that she is inside a Gigai. Renji reveals that he did not believe the information from the Image Office about this. Renji greets and attacks Rukia, saying that she was so lost in thought that she failed to notice a hunter from Soul Society standing right behind her. He complains that she has become too soft in the months that she has been missing and demands that she summon the Human that she gave her powers to. When Rukia protests that no such thing happened, Renji questions why she is acting like that. While she is distracted by Byakuya, Renji attacks her, but lets her escape, saying that giving her powers to a Human is a very serious sin for a Shinigami and that they have been appointed to kill the Human. Renji tells her not to try to protect the Human and that his next attack will be serious, but he is interrupted by Uryū Ishida. After asking who he is, Renji cuts Uryū’s explanation short and decides to kill him. Renji defeats Uryū in a single attack, and as he is about to kill him, he introduces himself and swings his blade down. However, he is stopped by Ichigo Kurosaki’s arrival.


Surprised to see another Shinigami and further shocked at the size of his Zanpakutō, Renji quickly figures out that Ichigo is the Human who took Rukia’s powers and attacks him. Renji quickly and easily overwhelms Ichigo, injuring him. He states that once Ichigo is dead, Rukia’s powers will return, but she will be executed in Soul Society. He ridicules Ichigo for showing up when Rukia was trying to protect him. Ichigo uses the moment to attack Renji, cutting his chin. Byakuya chastises him for being careless and reveals that according to their undercover forces, Ichigo had inflicted a scar upon a Menos Grande 33 hours earlier. Renji laughs this off and asks Ichigo the name of his Zanpakutō. Seeing that Ichigo does not understand him, he activates his Shikai and further injures Ichigo. After explaining what had just happened to Ichigo, he moves in for the kill. However, Rukia jumps on him and urges Ichigo to run away. Ichigo instead gets up and continues to fight, becoming more powerful, much to Renji’s surprise. Ichigo quickly defeats Renji and as he tries to deliver a finishing blow, Ichigo is struck down by Byakuya. Awed by Byakuya’s abilities, Renji wonders how Ichigo became so powerful so suddenly. Renji stops Rukia from running to the defeated Ichigo’s side, telling her that there is no point in her getting into more trouble over a dead person. Rukia protests that it is her fault that he is dead, surprising Renji. When Ichigo grabs Byakuya’s leg, Renji is stunned that he is still alive. Rukia surrenders to Byakuya, prompting protests from Ichigo. Renji stamps on his back, telling him to stop making things worse and to be quite. At Byakuya’s behest, Renji opens a Senkaimon and they leave with Rukia.

In the Sixth Division’s barracks, Renji kicks and gives out to Rikichi for failing to look after the Jigokuchō properly. He then visits Rukia in her cell. He tells her to eat something and becomes annoyed when she makes fun of his new rank. Rukia asks if she is going to be executed. Renji tells her that Byakuya his reporting to the Central 46 and that he will most likely appeal for her sentence to be commuted. Rukia disagrees, saying that he will not ask for leniency, surprising Renji. Byakuya later returns and reveals that Central 46 has decided that Rukia will be executed in 25 days time, stunning Renji. After Byakuya leaves, Rukia tries to cheer Renji up by saying that she is alright, as it only makes her more determined to escape and making fun of his tattooed eyebrows, angering him. Renji leaves, saddened and noting that it is not possible for her to escape and that she will be executed. He wonders if this is truly okay with Captain Kuchiki.

When a group of Ryoka arrives in Soul Society, Renji is with Rikichi when they hear an alarm and warning about their arrival. He asks for his Zanpakutō, which Rikichi goes to fetch. Rikichi returns with Zabimaru and urges Renji to take it easy as he rushes off. However, he does not reach the Ryoka in time and only glimpses Captain Ichimaru repelling the Ryoka from the West Gate of Seireitei. 14 days before Rukia’s scheduled execution, Renji escorts a group of Onmitsukidō guards as they transfer her to the Senzaikyū. Once there, he points out to her that they can see the Sōkyoku, which will be used for her execution, from the windows. The guards thank Renji and begin to leave. Renji stays to tell Rukia that there was an unconfirmed report that five Ryoka invaded Soul Society and that one of them matched Ichigo’s description. Renji leaves with the guards.

As he walks away from the Senzaikyū, Renji wonders when he last saw Rukia's face light up like it had just then. Renji wonders if he should have told her this, as Ichigo would not have stood a chance against Ichimaru. His thoughts are interrupted by Aizen, who asks to speak to him privately. As Aizen looks around the room, he notes that they have not spoken since Renji’s transfer to the 11th Division and asks if he is now in the 6th Division. Renji inquires what it is that he wants to talk about. Aizen reveals that he is aware that Rukia and Renji were close friends and asks if he thinks that she really deserves to be executed. He then reveals that there are a number of unusual aspects to her arrest and execution, claiming that there is a conspiracy. Shocked, Renji asks what he means, but they are interrupted when Aizen is called to an emergency captains’ meeting.

Later, Renji receives an order to put on his lieutenant’s armband and attend a meeting of the lieutenants. He complains about this to fellow lieutenant, Tetsuzaemon Iba. Along with Momo, they are the first to arrive at the waiting room. When Rangiku Matsumoto arrives, Renji asks Iba who her captain is. Hearing that it is Tōshirō Hitsugaya, he remarks that he is a child genius and that it is bad. Momo asks him if he has seen Captain Aizen, which he denies. He tells the worried Momo not to worry about him, saying that the meeting is probably not a big deal and that everything will be alright while asking himself what Aizen is up to. That night, Renji and the other lieutenants are shocked to hear an alarm announcing that there are intruders inside Seireitei. Several hours later, after no intruders were found, Renji and Byakuya witness the Ryoka enter Seireitei from the sky.

Yasochika Iemura announces to a gathering of the lieutenants that the extent of the casualties inflicted by the Ryoka. Upon hearing that two of the Ryoka have taken a hostage and are heading towards the center of Seireitei, Renji quietly leaves the assembly. He leaves his lieutenant’s armband in his office and heads out alone. He finds Ichigo and compliments him on surviving Byakuya’s attack. As the two begin to fight, Renji asks him how he intends to save Rukia, questioning how he can be so confident about being able to save her. Renji unleashes his Shikai and knocks Ichigo back, informing him that his power is five times greater without the limiter placed on his powers when he was in the Human World and continues to attack Ichigo, blaming him for Rukia’s troubles. As Renji becomes annoyed with Ichigo’s insistence that he will save Rukia, Ichigo tries to exploit the gaps between Renji’s continuous attacks to attack him, but Renji dodges that attack and strikes Ichigo.] Ichigo barely dodges Renji's finishing blow, and grabs Zabimaru. He tells Renji that he is sorry for keeping him waiting as his reiatsu begins to increase dramatically. Renji is hit by a direct unnamed Getsuga Tenshō which breaks Zabimaru and badly injures him. Renji, wondering what happened and how he lost, grabs Ichigo and admits that getting Rukia back is an impossible dream for him. He begs Ichigo to save her instead.

Renji falls unconscious and is found by Izuru and a small group of Shinigami, who concentrate on saving him rather than chasing the Ryoka. They bring him to a safe area, where Momo is shocked at his condition. She recommends contacting the Fourth Division to have him healed, but Byakuya tells them not to bother, but to throw him into jail instead. Captain Ichimaru, however, tells them that he will contact the Fourth Division for them. A restrained Renji is treated by a Fourth Division member while in his cell.

In his cell, Renji has a conversation with the materialized spirit of his Zanpakutō, Zabimaru. While Zabimaru is fully recovered and eager for a rematch with Zangetsu, Renji insists that they are no longer enemies. Zabimaru asks him who is his enemy, and who he will fight next, but Renji does not answer. He later breaks out of confinement, knocking out his guard and finds his way to Ichigo, who is in an underground training area with Yoruichi Shihōin. Renji realizes that he is attempting to learn the Bankai of his Zanpakutō. Renji tells them that he is there to train to attain Bankai as well and that Rukia’s execution has been moved up to noon of the following day. Renji tells them that he is close to achieving Bankai, as he has already achieved the materialization of his Zanpakutō and he begins to train with the materialized Zabimaru. During a break in training, Ichigo tells Renji his reasons for wanting to save Rukia. After Renji achieves Bankai, he asks Yoruichi if Ichigo really can achieve Bankai. Yoruichi tells him that she believes that he instinctively knows how to achieve Bankai.

Renji leaves the training area and heads towards the execution site, defeating several members of his own Division, including Rikichi, in the process. He is intercepted by Byakuya, who refuses to allow him to rescue Rukia or to pass by. After blocking Byakuya’s Senka attack, Renji activates his Shikai without using its release command in order to prevent Byakuya from activating his own Shikai.Renji then activates his Bankai, Hihiō Zabimaru, and declares that he will save Rukia. Byakuya dismisses this notion and evades Renji’s initial attack. He blocks Hihiō Zabimaru and attacks it with his own Shikai, seemingly breaking it apart. However, Hihiō Zabimaru reforms and Renji continues to attack him. Byakuya uses Kidō to take advantage of Renji’s inexperience with Bankai, confusing the movements of Renji’s Bankai. He then binds him with Bakudō #61 Rikujōkōrō and uses his Bankai, Senbonsakura Kageyoshi, severely injuring the immobilized Renji.Byakuya explains the nature of his Bankai and complements Renji on still being intact. Renji’s Bankai disappears, which Byakuya explains is a sign that he is near death. Renji declares that he can still fight and tries to charge at his captain, but he is impaled by several blades from Byakuya’s Bankai. Byakuya congratulates him, but tells him that he will kill him if he gets up again. Thinking of Ichigo, Renji says that he swore he would save Rukia and makes one last attack, but breaks Zabimaru against Byakuya’s body and collapses. Byakuya applauds his lieutenant on having struck him, and leaves a dying Renji with his scarf and acknowledges that Renji's "fang" had finally reached him.

After being healed by Hanatarō Yamada, Renji regains consciousness. Confused, Rikichi tells him that he sneaked Hanatarō out of prison so that he could treat Renji. As Rikichi gives his lieutenant a uniform and headband, Hanatarō asks him to save Rukia. After Ichigo saves Rukia, Renji arrives at the execution site, knocking out several Shinigami. From the high perch of the execution stand, Ichigo throws Rukia to Renji and orders him to defend her with his life. Renji escapes from the execution grounds with Rukia in his arms after Ichigo stops several lieutenants from pursuing them. As they are escaping, Rukia protests that they must help Ichigo. Renji tells her to be quiet and tells her that Ichigo wanted to return what he owes to her. He tells her that nobody thinks badly of her and that she can depend on him and Ichigo.
Renji and Rukia are stopped by Kaname Tōsen, who teleports the three of them back to the top of the Sōkyoku Hill, where Aizen, orders Renji to release Rukia and back away. Renji asks how Aizen is still alive and what he just said. He refuses Aizen’s order, causing Aizen to draw his sword against his former subordinate. Renji evades the full force of Aizen’s strike, but is still injured by it. Aizen praises his abilities and tells Renji that he does not want to kill him. After telling Rukia to be quiet, Renji refutes this, demanding to know why he killed Momo. Aizen reveals that Momo and Izuru were just his puppets, causing Renji to state that he is no longer the Aizen he once knew and refuse to hand over Rukia even if it costs him his life. Renji attacks Aizen with his Shikai, but Aizen blocks his attack and then grabs Zabimaru with his bare hand. He cuts through the Zanpakutō and injures Renji, then tells him how he had used him, Momo and Izuru. He offers Renji a final chance to release Rukia, but he refuses and as Aizen tries to kill him, Ichigo arrives and blocks the attack. After momentarily bickering, Renji tells Ichigo that he does not intend to run, but will instead attack Aizen. He uses his Higa Zekkō technique to attack Aizen, while Ichigo charges at the captain. Aizen, however, stops Ichigo and quickly defeats both of them.

After Aizen's escapes, Renji is treated by the Fourth Division. A week later, Renji waits in the hospital with a recovering Byakuya. When Byakuya asks if Renji wished that he was dead, Renji replies that he does not, and that if he were to die, then he would no longer have a reason to become stronger. Their quiet conversation is interrupted by Ichigo and Orihime Inoue, who are searching for Rukia. Realizing that Renji and Byakuya do not know where she is, they leave. When the Ryoka depart from Soul Society, Renji is among those present at the Senkaimon to see them off.

At some point after the defection of Aizen, Gin and Tōsen, Renji asks Ikkaku to become a captain, but he refuses. Renji tries to convince Ikkaku that he is the only one who can fill the void left by the loss of the three captains and that he should replace one of them as captain. Ikkaku reminds Renji that he once told him that he did not want anyone other him and Yumichika to know about his Bankai. Ikkaku tells him that just as he wishes to surpass Byakuya, Ikkaku’s wish is to fight and die under Kenpachi Zaraki’s leadership and that if he understands that, he should not ask him again.

Renji, Rukia, Ikkaku, Yumichika Ayasegawa, Rangiku, and Tōshirō Hitsugaya travel to Karakura Town after receiving orders to link up with Ichigo and prepare for battle with the Arrancar. The group arrives in Karakura High School in Gigai, posing as students. Renji tells Ichigo why they are there, and rebukes Ichigo when he does not know what an Arrancar is despite having fought one a few days previously. When Rukia kicks Ichigo and removes his spirit form from his body, Renji holds his body, commenting to Rangiku that Rukia can really foul things up. When the other students make comments about Renji's appearance, Ikkaku tells him to ignore them, only to lose his temper when they call him bald, Renji repeats Ikkaku's own advice to him.

Later, at the Kurosaki Clinic, Renji, Ikkaku, Rangiku and Yumichika enter Ichigo's room via the ceiling. With illustrations provided by Rukia, Renji explains about the Arrancar and how Aizen's use of the [[Hōgyoku] has changed the situation. He also reveals that Soul Society had intended to bide its time and watch for Aizen's opening moves, but due to the Arrancar attacking the Human World, Captain Jūshirō Ukitake became uneasy it was decided to dispatch a team to Karakura Town. Renji reveals that since the annihilation of the Central 46, the captains have taken over their responsibilities and that Captain-Commander Yamamoto was in charge of selecting the team. He states the reasons why each member of the team was selected, saying that he informed Ikkaku about the mission himself. When Tōshirō enters the room via an open window and takes over the explaining, Renji asks if he had expected it to be open and tells him that he should not have done that as his age and hair color make him seem suspicious. As Renji and Rangiku marvel over Kon, he tells Ichigo that they will not be returning to Soul Society until the Arrancar threat is over. After Ichigo tells them that they cannot stay at his house, the group leaves. Renji tells Ichigo that he will see if Kisuke Urahara will allow him to stay, revealing that he wanted to understand how Urahara had brought Ichigo to his current level in such a short time and saying that he had other questions for the former captain.

As he waits outside the closed Urahara Shop, Renji notices the approach of Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez and his Fracción. Renji leaves his Gigai and is confronted by Yylfordt Granz. Renji uses his Bankai against the Arrancar, and is stunned when he deflects his Bankai's attack and slashes the lieutenant's chest. The Arrancar mocks Renji and his Bankai, but he is attacker by Ururu Tsumugiya. Yylfordt releases his Zanpakutō and impales Ururu, stunning Renji. When Jinta Hanakari intervenes, Renji places his Bankai between Jinta and Yylfordt to shield the child and tells him to run away. The Arrancar breaks through one of the segments of Hihiō Zabimaru, injuring Renji and he reveals his name and number to Renji. Rangiku informs Renji that she has received permission from Soul Society for them to remove their power limiters. Renji promptly releases his limiter and explains to a stunned Yylfordt about how Shinigami captains and lieutenants normally have their powers limited to one fifth of normal while in the Human World. He attacks the Arrancar and uses Hikōtsu Taihō to kill him. Afterward, Renji notes to himself that the battle was close, attributing his victory to the commotion his limit release caused. He wonders if all Arrancar are that strong and begins to worry about Ichigo Renji finds Ichigo, noting that his opponent had returned to Hueco Mundo and asks Ichigo if he won. When Ichigo replies that he lost, Renji rebuts this, saying that since he is alive, he did win. Ichigo refuses to accept this, saying that Renji would not say such a thing if their positions were reversed. Renji later watches on as Orihime Inoue heals Rukia, remarking on the speed of her healing ability.

After the battle, Urahara allows him into his shop and requests that he train Yasutora Sado, saying that it would be awkward to have him stay there if he refuses. Renji questions why he should do it when Sado had asked him. Urahara replies that Sado needs the power of a Bankai to grow stronger. Renji responds that the former captain should use his Bankai, becoming agitated. Tessai Tsukabishi restrains him as Urahara explains that his Bankai is not suited to such tasks. He admits to having been avoiding Renji so that he did not have to answer his questions and proposes that if Renji does the chores at the shop for three months, he will answer any questions that Renji has. Renji insists that training is not a chore, but reluctantly agrees to train Sado and do the chores. As Renji fights Sado with his Bankai, he asks the overwhelmed Human if he is done already. Sado attacks him again, but Renji dodges, asking if he has gotten weaker. While Orihime is talking with Urahara, Renji knocks Sado into some rubble when Sado refuses medical treatment, Renji tells him not to get carried away. As they continue to train, Urahara tells Orihime that she should stay out of battle, Renji tells Sado that Urahara is correct, as the Fourth Division is trained for battle as well as healing. He comments that Orihime's demeanor is not suited for battle and that now may have been the best time to tell her that.

When the Arrancar attack again, Renji refuses to allow Sado to fight in the battle, saying that he has used up to much energy and that he will go. Urahara tells both of them to stay and rest, insisting that he will go instead. The following day, Renji and the others gather in Orihime's home where they learn of her disappearance from Captain Ukitake. When Captain-Commander Yamamoto states that Orihime has most likely joined Aizen's side of her own free will, Renji stops Ichigo from protesting, saying that he will only make it worse. He requests permission to for the team to travel to Hueco Mundo to retrieve Orihime. Yamamoto, however, denies the request and orders them to return to Soul Society. Renji is surprised to see Byakuya and Kenpachi Zaraki emerge from a Senkaimon behind them. Byakuya tells them that they have orders to use force if necessary in order to return them. Renji hurries Rukia through the Senkaimon as they leave. In Seireitei, Byakuya states that he did not receive any orders beyond returning them to Soul Society and that they may do as they wish. He allows them to return to the Human World.

Urahara opens a Garganta for Renji and Rukia, and shortly after arriving in Hueco Mundo, they find Ichigo, Sado and Uryū fighting Runuganga. Rukia defeats the Hollow and then she and Renji both punch Ichigo for leaving without them. Rukia explains that both her and Renji had planned to return by any means necessary. Renji explains to Ichigo how they got there. Along with Nel Tu, Dondochakka and Pesche, the group use Bawabawa to reach the walls of Las Noches, which Ichigo and Renji attack with their Shikai. After breaking through the wall, Renji notices that there is wind coming through the hole. As the group run through the breach, Renji uses Kidō to illuminate the area, but he is only able to produce a small light, prompting taunts from Uryū, Rukia and Ichigo. To Renji's dismay, they emerge at a junction of five pathways. When Ichigo disagrees with Rukia's suggestion that they split up, saying that they stand a better chance against the Espada if they stay together, Renji tells him to be quiet, insisting that showing concern for a warrior's life in battle is an insult to the warrior. As they prepare to split up, Renji decides to do a chant before they go any further. Saying that it is a Gotei 13 tradition that is falling out of fashion, he insists that it is appropriate and that they should do it, despite thinking that it is lame. After swearing that they will meet up again, they each go their separate ways.

As Ichigo is fighting Dordoni, Renji senses Ichigo's Reiatsu. He then notices a screaming Dondochakka following him. His appearance and attitude is enough to freak Renji out and convince him to run with the Hollow chasing after him. Startled, Renji asks what he is doing there. Dondochakka replies that he is searching for Nel, prompting Renji to say that he is a lost child and that if she went after Ichigo, she is safer than anywhere else. The two start to bicker with each other as Renji continues to run from him. Upon sensing Nel's Reiatsu, Dondochakka throws Renji over his shoulder and then slams him into the ground head first. Dondochakka then notices that Pesche is not with him. Renji tells him that Pesche has not been with him since the start, correcting him when he misunderstands what Renji meant by this. When Sado is beaten by Nnoitra, Renji takes note of his defeat. Later, Renji senses Rukia releasing her Zanpakutō and stops, only for him and Dondochakka to fall into traps set by Szayel Aporro Granz. Renji falls a large distance into a large chamber where he is greeted by Szayel. Despite trying to avoid him, Dondochakka exits the trap and falls on top of Renji, who kicks him out of the way, complaining that his face is very hard. As Szayel talks to them, Renji interrupts him, saying that he came there to fight Szayel and his allies. Renji activates his Bankai, but it explodes. Szayel explains to a stunned Renji that he cannot use his Bankai in this room as he had set up a mechanism that would prevent its activation, using information from his brother, Yylfordt Granz. Szayel draws his sword and prepares to attack. Renji uses his Shikai, but is injured by Szayel, who reveals that he has received a report stating that Rukia and Aaroniero Arruruerie had killed each other. Shocked and angered, Renji attacks Szayel, slightly injuring him and demands that he move aside.

As Szayel damages a tired Renji's Shikai, he grows bored of the fight and summons his Fracción to fight in his place. Uryū shoots one of the Fracción and comments that Renji looks worse for wear. When Szayel neutralizes Uryū's bow, Renji blocks an attack aimed at him and asks the Quincy if he can find any way to counter Szayel's abilities. When Uryū replies that there is, Renji beats back one of the Fracción and tells Uryū that he will trust him. At Uryū's request, Renji attempts to hold Szayel's attention by wrapping himself and Szayel with Zabimaru, tying the two together. Explaining that Kidō is not one of his strong points, Renji uses Hadō #31, Shakkahō at point-blank range, injuring them both. Szayel staggers into a trap laid by Uryū and is engulfed in an explosion. As Uryū and Renji exchange pleasantries, Szayel emerges from the smoke and eats one of his Fracción to heal himself, stunning his opponents. Szayel then leaves the chamber.

As Uryū, Renji, Dondochakka and Pesche run away from Szayel's palace, Renji comments that they will have to rescue Rukia and Sado on their way. However, the four find themselves back in the same chamber where they fought Szayel, where the Espada is waiting for them. After explaining that he rearranged the corridors, Szayel uses his Resurrección and creates quasi-clones of his opponents. As they struggle to tell the quasi-clones apart from the originals, Renji dodges an attack from Dondochakka and rebukes him for it, only to be kicked by Pesche. Uryū stops the three from bickering and reveals the differences that he has noticed between the replicas and themselves, leaving the three stunned that they had not noticed the large differences. Renji notes that it is a big mistake and questions Szayel's intelligence, but the Espada hears him and explains the reason for the differences. While listening to this, Renji fends off an attack by one of his duplicates and tells Uryū that the chamber is too small to fight with so many opponents. Realizing that the quasi-clones are mimicking his attacks, Renji activates his Bankai, a move which his duplicates replicate, destroying the structure. After Uryū compares him to Ichigo, Renji remarks that it does not sound like praise when Ichigo's name is mentioned. Uryū comments that he was actually insulting him, but Renji simply comments that Dondochakka and Pesche should be alright, but to watch out for Szayel, who duly emerges and destroys the duplicates.

Renji comments that it does not feel good seeing himself explode, even if it is a fake. Following Uryū's example, Renji tries to attack the Espada, but they are blocked by two of his Fracción. Uryū is ensnared by Szayel's wings and notices him producing a doll of the Quincy. Renji is stunned when Szayel uses the doll to inflict injuries on Uryū and tries to attack, but is also caught by Szayel's wing.Szayel crushes several of Renji's internals before he finally collapses when his Achilles tendon is damaged. As Szayel continues to torment Renji, he is attacked by Pesche and Dondochakka, surprising Renji. Renji is shocked when Pesche manages to cut Szayel, and when Uryū complains to Pesche, Renji comments that he has more left in him than he thought. Afterwards, Mayuri Kurotsuchi arrives and attacks Szayel with his Bankai, causing Renji and Uryū to become infected by its poison and Mayuri gives them an antidote. After Szayel is defeated, Mayuri heals an injured Nemu Kurotsuchi in a manner that surprises Renji and Uryū, who complains to the captain. Renji tells him not to get worked up over it, as their guts are still crushed. Amongst the rubble, Mayuri opens a still intact door, leaving Renji shocked at what he sees inside. As Nemu and Mayuri are about to heal Uryū, Renji requests to be treated first so that he can assist the others against the Espada, but is warned against interfering in Kenpachi Zaraki's battle.
As he is being healed, Renji hears Aizen's announcement via Tenteikūra that he is departing for Karakura Town and that Orihime, now in the Fifth Tower, is no longer of any use to him.

As Ichigo is surrounded by the Exequias outside the Fifth Tower, a healed Renji, along with Sado and Rukia, attacks them and frees Ichigo. Renji and Sado then battle a continuous stream of Hollows. Once the Hollows stop spawning, Battikaroa appears. Renji and Sado attempt to fight him, but his sand properties make him immune to their attacks. Seeing their attempts starting to be more successful, Renji and Sado decide to combine their efforts, using their strongest attacks to finally crack the whole of Battikaroa's body and head, defeating him. More Hollows then emerge from the sand. When their battle is interrupted by the arrival of Yammy Llargo, Sado identifies the Arrancar. Renji recognizing the name from Hitsugaya's report, questions Sado's assertion that Yammy has grown in size. Upon sensing Ulquiorra Cifer's death, Yammy grows even larger in anger, ripping apart what is left of his jacket to reveal his tattoo. Renji asks Sado and Rukia if they had fought Espada yet and remarks that since Yammy is the weakest of the Espada, they should be able to defeat him together. Yammy activates his Resurrección, revealing that he is the 0 Espada, stunning Renji. Renji is defeated and left lying unconscious on a pile of rubble. Renji is seen again being healed by Lieutenant Isane Kotetsu along with another injured Yasutora Sado and Rukia in a barrier.

However, we all know it's been over 400 years since all of these happened and we can find out what he did afterwards, via RP!

NATURAL ABILITIES


Master Swordsmanship Specialist: Renji is a highly skilled combatant in swordsmanship techniques. He was trained by 3rd Seat of the 11th Division Ikkaku Madarame when he was a member of that division. Renji is able to hold his own against captain-level fighters.

Whip Mastery: What makes Renji so effective is the unique method in which his Zanpakutō works, in the fact that his Zanpakutō is more of an amalgamation of a whip and a sword. Renji is versatile because of this, and to effectively wield it is a testament to his skill. Renji has stated that his Zanpakutō is an extension of his body both his arms and legs and to that point he has used it in a variety of ways. He can use its extension ability to attack an opponent from behind or either the left or right without giving away the variation of his attack until it is too late. He has shown considerable skill in using his extension capabilities to entrap an opponent by surrounding him from various angles and then retracting in order to crush the opponent.

Shunpo Master: Knowing that Zabimaru's Shikai attacks leave him open for counter-attacks, Renji has become highly proficient at Shunpo to compensate for it. Renji can even keep up with captain-level Shinigami for an indeterminate amount of time. He knows enough to be informed on their higher level techniques. Also, being the captain of the 2nd Division, he must be quite proficient enough to be mastering it.

Kido Expert: After finding his spiritual make-up to hide up his flaw in his kido mastery; he finally discovered that flaw and improved his kido enough to be able to cast mid-level kidos without an incantation and still managing to cause a large damage with it.

Enhanced Strength: When he swings Zabimaru toward Ichigo in their second fight he is able to easily toss him into the air, and subsequently push him through an entire building about a dozen meters away, with relative ease. During the fight with Szayel Aporro's unique Fracción, Renji protects Uryū from a direct punch by one of the stronger Arrancar using both hands, and throws him aside. Later, by spinning Zabimaru above his head, Renji is able to cause enough force to generate a whirlwind, blowing all of Szayel's Fracción several yards despite their massive size. Szayel commented that he was using "brute force."

Enhanced Durability: During his fight with Byakuya, he is hit directly by every blade from Senbonzakura Kageyoshi, and when he continues to fight he is pierced by five more blades. Even after such terrible damage he makes a last ditch effort attack, almost piercing Byakuya with Zabimaru, and finally falls defeated.

Immense Spiritual Power: Being a former lieutenant of the Gotei 13, Renji already had a high spiritual energy. Upon learning Bankai, this power increased on a scale from 5-10. Rukia even comments after feeling his defeat that it was so high, she could not recognize it until it decreased which caused it to become more familiar to her. His spiritual pressure is even enough to rival an average captain-level shinigami, if not maybe a bit more higher.

Keen Intellect: Despite Renji's brutal and oblivious appearance, he helds the intellectual facts that was noticeable when Ichigo and Ikkaku were debating about a sunglass shop's name whether it was "Silver Slug," "Silver Cockroaches," and ex cetra. In which, Renji ends up correcting them which proves that he still holds his fact.
__________________________________________________________________________


Zanpakutô Spirit Name: Zabimaru
Appearance:

Renji Abarai 610px-Zabimaru_%28spirit2%29

Zabimaru's spirit takes the form of a two people: an adult woman and a small boy, attached to the female's waist by a black chain that is connected to a collar on his neck, the chain can however be removed at any time. The female is referred to as Saru (Monkey) and the boy is referred to as Hebi (Snake). Saru has dark green fur that covers most of her body, except for her inner abdomen and chest. She also seems to have a beauty mark on her left chest. She has green eyes, long, rose-colored hair (of similar color as the fur cowl that appears around Renji's shoulders in Bankai) that goes past her knees, and black markings in her hair that bear a resemblance to Renji's tattoos. Hebi has blue eyes and jaw-length crimson hair. He wears a robe similar to a priest's that is cut short to reveal much of his stomach, with long sleeves that extend well past his hands. He has a snake's tail on which he often balances on to sit in the air. The two both possess fangs.

Inner World: Unknown.

Sealed Zanpakutô Apperance:

Renji Abarai WG-591BG

PhatomTech: N/A

Release: "Howl, Zabimaru!"

Shikai Description:

Renji Abarai Renji_shikai

In its Shikai, Zabimaru transforms into an even longer 6-part segmented blade; each segment is wider than the one preceding it from the hilt with 2 pick-like protrusions on the front and back of each segment, with the ones on the front much longer than the ones at the back. Zabimaru's segments grow in number almost without limit. The segments are connected by a stretchable thread, making Zabimaru more useful as a whip than an actual sword, though it can serve as a regular sword just as easily, thanks to Renji's swordsmanship. Zabimaru's guard and handle remain the same in its Shikai release. While Zabimaru can be stretched to incredible lengths in its whip form, Renji has a limit of three consecutive attacks before having to bring the segments of Zabimaru back together for recovery - which makes him fairly vulnerable during the time interval. To make up for this, Renji usually relies on Shunpo for evasion as he retrieves Zabimaru's segments. Renji's Shikai, while durable to an extent, can ultimately sustain serious damage the longer the fight drags on. While it can withstand dangerously prolonged combat, it has limits in enduring high-level attacks that are conducted by either the enemy or by Renji himself. Because of these many drawbacks, Renji states that out of all the other Zanpakutō wielded by the other lieutenants, Zabimaru is the most difficult to master.

Shikai Abilities:

Higa Zekkō (狒牙絶咬, Bite of a Broken Baboon's Fang; Viz "Baboon Fang Bite"): Renji can also use his spiritual power to take the disconnected/broken segments of Zabimaru and levitate them into the air, allowing him to execute a one-shot omnidirectional attack, but states that it is damaging to Zabimaru and leaves Renji defenseless. Byakuya later comments that using this technique will prevent him from reactivating his Shikai for an unspecified duration.

Bankai Name: Hihiō Zabimaru (狒狒王蛇尾丸, Baboon King Snake Tail; Viz "Baboon King")

Bankai Description:

Renji Abarai 190px-Renji_Bankai_-_Episode_273

Transforms Zabimaru into a massive version of its Shikai form resembling a skeleton of a snake. Zabimaru gains many more segments, which are much larger resembling a mix between a snake’s vertebral column and the pick-like protrusions of his Shikai segments, and it also gains a snake-like head about the size of a small car. Renji is also slightly transformed, gaining a fur cowl around his neck. The cowl appears to be the fur of an ape and thus, the ape's skull could be seen over Renji's left shoulder while the rest of the fur extends to cover his right arm. Zabimaru itself, in Bankai form, does not literally "cut;" Renji usually catches his opponent with the snake-head of his weapon and smashes his opponent into the ground with it. The head has also proven capable of inflicting heavy damage through biting. These snake bodies are capable of moving at incredible speeds like it's about to snatch its prey.

Bankai Abilities:

Bankai Reconstitution: Unlike its Shikai, Zabimaru's segments are held together by Renji's spiritual power, allowing him to separate and reattach them at will. The segments themselves are extremely tough, making it extremely difficult to destroy Hihiō Zabimaru. Even if a segment is damaged, knocked off, or even destroyed, Renji can simply detach it and reform (or reconstitute) Zabimaru.


Hikōtsu Taihō (狒骨大砲, Baboon Bone Cannon): The technique fires a dense blast of concentrated spiritual energy from Zabimaru's mouth. The technique costs a substantial amount of energy from Renji which usually causes an aftermath that breaks the segments out of formation.

Renji Abarai HikotsuTaiho01

Hihi-jetto Danmaku (ヒヒジェット弾幕, Baboon Jet Barrage):
This technique works in a similar way of Hikotsu Taiho, however... after charging up his own reiatsu within his bankai construct's mouth, it shoots out hundreds of balls of his reiatsu in a fiery manner. When the balls come in contact with a solid object, it bursts out in a circular pattern of a fifteen-twenty meter diameter depending on how close this is shot. This also takes a lot lesser time to do than Hikotsu Taiho. The impact is as strong as an average bala, but just know that there's many of them.

Hihio Sukimumiruku (ヒヒスキムミルク, Baboon Skim): This technique allows a surface of sharp red reiatsu to burst out from the side of his bankai where the spikes are located at. The surface seems to spread out from the beginning then sharps up until it reaches the tip being about twenty-five to fifty meters in length (they're controllable depending on how Renji uses it). This surface stays on contact with the sharp points and pierces through any solid objects that gets in it's way in a very clean way (as in it goes through it clean and neat like cutting a paper). It can be maintained for three posts until it disappears. He can activate it again after two posts.

Kami Kogire i Na (髪こぎれいな, Hair Chipper):
Renji has found out that he could use the fur around his bankai construct's head as weapon. By utilizing a good amount of reiatsu into his hair from the last segment where he charges it up to. The hair will grow brightly in a pinkish red color and as Renji swings his bankai's head, it would throw out a good rain of sharp needle-like hair from the fur. His fur is unlimited, therefore useable again.

Haidorafōmu (ハイドラフォーム, Hydra-Form):
After two-hundred years of training aftersince the battle with Aizen, the Espada in Hueco Mundo and such, Renji has developed a form that his bankai can adapt toward to. This form two other identical heads of the serpent-like body this bankai possesses. It is all held by Renji with two single segments on the bottom that he holds. After the segments, that's where the bankai seems to separate into an actual three with the same exact similarities as the original; same exact length, same exact size (other than the bottom which is sort of thinned out), same exact abilities and such. The only drawback behind this form is that Renji has to swing it a lot more than he does with a single form of his bankai. And, it has a lesser durability then the original so it's a lot more easier to find destroyable (while retaining its immunity to being melted). This form goes as long as Renji can swing, toss and lift up around the segments in his hand. And it can alternate forms every three posts if wanted. If Renji tires out from this form, it takes him some time to recover for another try but still can be retained as long as he wants it to be out.

-New Addition; When one of Renji's snakes gets destroyed during this form, it will reconstruct itself back to two rather than one. For example, if the amazing Poliro manages to break one of his snakes, they will reconstruct to two albeit using more reiatsu supply from Renji but due to his age, controlling a mere ten is pretty easy and it gets painfully hard as it goes up more in number. This ability is one of his strongest.

Ultimate Defense:
His bankai is in no-way meltable or hardly destroyable. Even Radioactive's punch wouldn't do much to it other than making the segments come off apart. Even if they find a way to destroy the bankai segments of Renji's, he would just reconstruct them like it's a complete new thing. (Not dissing Radioactive by the way, he could probably crack it.)

Enhanced Higa Zekkō: He can also use a much more powerful version of Higa Zekkō, where all the segments detach, glow and sharpen using spiritual energy. They surround the opponent and execute an omni-directional attack of blades of spiritual energy. After use of this attack Hihiō Zabimaru reconstitutes itself.

Reiatsu ropes: Renji can separate his Bankai segments and use them to surround his opponent. By linking the segments together again with his reiatsu, Renji is able to bind the target. He uses this technique on Yammy Llargo, but it is easily destroyed by him. After four hundred years, these ropes are capable of covering a very wide radius even going by miles. There is no known limit on how much these ropes can sustain but it can withstand tons of weight on itself and still remain there without budging from the enemy's struggling.

I modified it a little so that it actually fits in the four-hundred years criteria; they're all in the quotation box. And for some reason, they're clustered to each other and I can't fix it. =_=

Added more to his hydraform. I expect some differences. (D) And boosted the reiatsu ropes' strength.
