Name: Kazemure Zetsu
Age: 894
Visual Age: mid thirties
Gender: Male
Division: 8th
Personality: Kazemure is not a talkative one. Almost every moment you see him, his hand will also be on his blade. He doesn't have a split personality when it comes to having a normla, casual day or charging into battle. He will usually take on the attitude of the true warrior that he is ever since he died on the battle field of Osaka. He isn't like this all the time, however. He will talk and lose himself in certain situations, such as a state of panic (rare), becoming aroused, or when he walks away from a fight without killing his opponent.
Appearance: Kazemure is a dark skinned warrior (like Yoruichi, Tosen, etc). His hair is also straightened, ending just above his shoulders. It's slightly spikey, though he has thin side burns on the side of his face. His eye brows are only slightly thicker than the average ones and his eye color's brown. He wears an earring hoop on both ears, silver. He's also shirtless, but wears a black haori with the matching kimono pants. that are torn at the bottom of his pants leg. His haori's coloring is bleached mostly, so technically it's mostly white with some black in it. It's also stained with dried up blood and sweat that doesn't come off, even after washing it.
Metaphorically, ever since he died, this is to remind him that he can never bury his past after living a life of murder and vengence. He also wears white socks with the matching white sandals.
History/Background: Kazemure..was not his real name. It was something he named himself since his own name was buried by his last life. Ever since he was little, he walked the streets after running away from home. He never saw them since he was nine. He passed out on a bridge..and it was raining. A random man with an umbrella and strawhat walked by with grosseries and nitced the young man unconscious. He picked him up and carried him to his dojo. This was a dojo where people studied the art of wielding the blade So that no one's bored with the details of this young boy's life, which was constant, repetitive training with no personal relation ships until later, we're skipping ahead until he was seventeen.
When Kazemure was seventeen, he was very well acquianted with his samurai blade. When his dojo was attacked by a supposedly "rogue" clan of samurai and ninjas who wanted to dominate and try to rule over the sengoku period, it turned out that these humans were not as they seem. they were hollow. At first, they did claim to be apart of the Hojo..but this was soon found out to be a lie. As the monstrous hollow attacked, it seemed that they appeared nothing but beings of a more attrocious form. They appeared no different to Kazemure, his sensei, or any of his advanced students. The rest of them were viciously eaten to torn to shreds, repainting the dojo in blobs and specks of dark red blood. The hollows rushed at Kaze, he seemed to unlock his latent ki, or spiritual power which enabled him to physically dispatch the hollows that invaded his home.
One by one, the blood of each hollow stained his blade and his clothes. Ever since, the blood never washed away. Once the excercise area was cleared, screaming was heard on the roof. Kaze appeared outside and leaped ontop of the dojo to find out that a Gillian had appeared behind the dojo..and one of the students he had a crush on, was about to be obliterated by its massive cero it was charging up.
"W-What the hell is that thing!?"
He exclaimed outloud,the gillian firing its destructive cero. It was on the verge of destroying the entire dojo. He used a special technique where he made a brutal upper slash as a blade of wind flew at the female student. She was cut by the wind blade and was bleeding, but noting too serious, as she was sent flying onto another rooftop to avoid the cero. He charged head on into the hollow soul flash and was utterly obliterated, his eyes slowly going blank before his body was erased. Everything was black..
Ever since then, he arrived to soul society with the help of a shinigami. Though he didn't need anymore help with swordsmanshihp, he did want to excel in other areas..opening up doorways to new worlds he never seen before. He prefer not to use kido unless it's an emergency, and ultimately graduated the academy as "The Scholar of Zanjutsu", which is another style of swordsmanship aside from Battojutsu. Together, he combined a self orientated, or freestyle, versed art that combines the two that made him a formiddable samurai. And plus, due to his age, his experience in the field in both the human world and the spirit world, Kazemure would be soon claimed to be a true master with his blade and takes true pride into what he does for a living..and that's to keep all that's right in the Gotei 13...beyond and below.
