resemblance of a fan. The blades are connected to a spiked rod tethered
together by a long chain. While in Shikai form, Kazeshini can be swung by its chains in large
circles, allowing the bladed portion to spin like a fan. Kazeshini can
also be used for entangling an opponent's sword, or other weapons; It
can even immobilize opponents. Although he dislikes the shape of his
weapon, he is extremely proficient in wielding them; He uses them as
projectiles and controls them at range by moving its chains, making
Kazeshini's paths unpredictable.

Background and Personality
History:
Approximately 100 years before the current story line, a young
Hisagi and several of his playmates fell prey to a Hollow attack in
Rukongai. Luckily, it wasn't long until they were saved by Kensei Muragama
and the 9th Division. After defeating the Hollow, Kensei attempted to
cheer Hisagi up (albeit with a slightly scary, demanding manner) and
asked his name. This was when Hisagi saw Kensei's "69" tattoo on his
chest and acquired the inspiration to get the same tattoo on his cheek.




Hisagi was already a famous Shinigami even before becoming a seated officer. He began taking missions with the Gotei 13 when he was still a student of the Shinigami Academy. During his last year of study, Hisagi and two of his classmates,Kanisawa and Aoga, were assigned to lead a field lesson on performing the Konso with Freshman Class One, the class whichRenji Abarai, Izuru Kira, and Momo Hinamori
were members of. All went well until the end of the lesson, when a
group of Huge Hollows took the class by surprise. As both Kanisawa and
Aoga were killed, Hisagi ordered all the freshmen to run and tried to
fend off the hollows himself until help arrived. However, he was
quickly overpowered, and if Renji, Izuru, and Momo hadn't turned back
to help, he could easily have died then and there. Fortunately, back-up
arrived in the forms of Captain Aizen and his then Lieutenant, Gin Ichimaru.
The scars on Hisagi’s face were acquired in that incident. Kira
mentioned that Hisagi failed the entrance exam for the academy twice.
However, his talent allowed him to become a seated officer in the Gotei
13 without having to pass additional tests in the end.

Shortly after attaining his position as lieutenant of the 9th Division he asked Tōsen meet him in a secluded area of Soul Society.
Upon his arrival Hisagi asked that Tōsen remove him from his position
as during field practice he couldn't effectively battle as he was
scared. He explained that he has done similar drills in the real world
and notes that his injured right eye was a direct result of one of
those drills. He tells Tōsen that ever since then he cannot settle
himself every time he unsheathes his blade. Though Tōsen tells him that
his feelings of fear are the very reason he should strive to become a
seated officer, as power shouldn't matter to a soldier but knowing his
own limitations should. It is Hisagi's fear that allows him to hold his
blade for those who share the same fear. Tōsen further explains that a
man that does not fear his own blade has no business removing it from
his sheathe. He tells Hisagi that if the thought of engaging an
opponent on the battlefield truly terrifies him to his very core then
he is a soldier within in his possession something that is priceless.

Personality:
Hisagi is an extremely mature and calm individual, a state that is
slightly at odds with his somewhat punk-like appearance. He usually
takes responsibility and tends to avoid violence when possible. He
seems to be virtuous, much like his captain's image; Their views often
coincide until it is revealed that Kaname Tōsen is a subordinate of Sosuke Aizen. He is often seen in the company of the 3rd Division lieutenant Izuru Kira.
He comes from the lower class, but when he is pressed for cash, he is
ready to rely on any free food source available, including one provided
by someone as obtuse and snotty as 2nd Division Lieutenant Omaeda. He is also just as perverted as other male Shinigami, usually where Rangiku Matsumoto is concerned. In one omake chapter, it is shown that he and Tetsuzaemon Iba fantasize about rescuing her.

Hisagi has stated that he does not like the shape of his Zanpakutō's Shikai release, as it looks like something meant to "reap life itself". He
also fears his sword's power, because to him, it is something of a sign
of respect to battle for justice as well as a testament to the true
strength of one's character, to which he is taught this by his former
captain, given the latter's "follow the path with the least bloodshed"
creed, indicating a reasonable closeness between the two. It also seems
that while battling, he becomes a darker person and seeks fear in his
enemy while in battle.

Role-play Sample: Not quite a Captain

(History and Personality from the Bleach Wiki, it says it much better than I ever could. But I know my stuff.)

Sorry, vice captain of the 9th Division is taken.

I did see that. I'd still like to play Shuhei, doesn't have to be as the Vice Captain.

Okay then. Approved. Welcome to the site ^^
