Shuhei Hisagi
Age: A little over 110 years
Appearance: 
Bio: Born in the Rukon District, Shuhei's first prominent contact with the Soul Society came when he was rescued from a hollow attack by former 9th Squad Captain Kensei Muguruma. Thereafter he saw the '69' tattoo on his chest, which became the inspiration for the infamous 69 tattoo he now wears on his cheek. He also has tattoos of a blue strip on his arm and his cheek, giving him a rather punk-like appearance. Despite that, he is actually very calm and mature, quite the opposite of his appearance actually. Though he failed the entrance exams to the Academy twice, he was eventually let in and quickly became famous even before his graduation as he accepted missions from the Protection Squads as a student. He was scarred, however, when leading a routine training mission for students in his sixth year the group was ambushed by a group of Huge Hollow that could conceal their presence. Despite fighting valiantly against them, it was only with the assistance of Izuru Kira, Renji Abarai, and Momo Hinamori that he was able to escape, albeit not until he had received the three claw-shaped wounds that would eventually become prominent scars on the cheek opposite his tattoo.
Thereafter he enlisted in the 9th Squad and rose to the rank of Vice-Captain under Kaname Tousen, whom he came to admire greatly as a man and a mentor. Many of his philosophies, including walking the path of least bloodshed and respect for battle and one's own power, were learned in his time serving under Captain Tousen. Since the betrayals, however, he has had to become even stronger, acting as the pillar around which Squad 9 can gather. Taking on the duties of acting Captain since then, he has admitted (in conversation with Captain Ukitake) that he feels overwhelmed by it, and that Captain Tousen seemed to be protecting him from quite a lot of the work he had done. Despite this, he continues to work hard to fill the gaps, and one day open the eyes of his former Captain.

Zanpaktou DetailsZanpaktou: Kazeshini
Release Command: "Reap, Kazeshini"
Shikai: When released, it takes the form of two Kusarigama-like weapons, each with two blades curving both directions, connected by a long chain. While in this form he is highly adept at swinging the chain in a large circle, and then whipping it forward to entangle an opponent's sword, or other weapon, or immobilizing his arms or legs. Although he dislikes the shape of his weapon because it is shaped like something meant to take life, he is extremely proficient in wielding them; he uses them as projectiles and controls them at range through moving the chain to make the weapons' paths unpredictable.
Bankai: Unknown/Not yet achieved.

Combat PotentialsFighting Style: An expert in all four of the areas of shinigami combat, his power is still a bit immature compared to many of the Captains. His tactical skill in battle is quite impressive, however, especially when he releases his Shikai, allowing him to fight at range, up close, and to combine its abilities with Kido for unique and powerful effects. Because of his dislike for its form, however, he prefers to face enemies without it, fighting surprisingly well against opponents using a release without releasing his own.
Affinities: Adept in all the areas of shinigami combat, he does not have a defining strength or weakness. His Zanjutsu is likely his strongest area, however, as well as his Hoho.
