Name: Dashiro Kytomaro
Gender: Male
Age: 129
Squad 4
Vice Captain
Skill Levels:
Kidou-Adept
Swordsmanship-Adept
Shunpo-Advanced
Hand-to-Hand-Advanced
Personality:
Dashiro has a personality similar to that of his great great grandfather, Kaiyasho Kytomaro.
One major difference is that he works very well with others in a group. His level of interaction eclipses that of his ancestor 10 fold.
Luckily, Kaiyasho's non-judgemental nature has been passed down through the ages to his great great grandson, making his team-oriented personality even more of an asset.
Dashiro has the historical knowledge of his ancestor, but not the skills with a sword that Kaiyasho once possessed, although he does participate in an intermediate course of martial arts.
Zanpaktou SpiritName: The Reaper Ashinazaki
Personality:
There's really only one thing to say about this spirit, she loves death and the sight of blood.
She always urges Dashiro to completely annihilate his opponent to next to nothing.
If Dashiro doesn't kill the opponent, she becomes extremely upset, cursing at the top of her lungs and putting Dashiro down by insulting him and making fun of every aspect of his life.
If he does in fact destroy the opponent, her satisfaction will never end. She doesn't praise Dashiro, but gloats about her own power that was used to defeat the adversary.
Environment:
Ashinazaki's world is very simple, she lives on an extremely small island small enough for only her to stand on, and the ocean surrounding her is blood red, actually, it is pure blood.

Background:
Dashiro Kytomaro was born in the city of Kyoto, Japan during the time of the phase out of Samurai swords and the insertion of gun-like weapons, one of the main reasons why Dashiro doesn't have the sword skills of his ancestor.
Dashiro did, however, work for the ramen shop that was established by Kaiyasho Kytomaro's mother. He started working there at 10 years old, and worked there up to the time of his death, therefore establishing that his life was much more boring than that of his ancestor, Kaiyasho.
Dashiro, ironically, died at the age of 28, the same age that Kaiyasho died so long ago, and also under similarly valiant circumstances.
He was working in the ramen shop one breezy and cold December morning when a large group of thugs stormed into the shop demanding money.
At first, he cooperated with them, but wanted to be a hero, so he grabbed a katana that was being displayed in the shop.
He saw that all they had were knives. He knew his skills were less than satisfactory, but he needed to defend the shop with his life, and thats exactly what he did.
He fought them off for a while, but there were just too many, and he was eventually killed.
Due to the preservation of Kaiyasho's historic records, Dashiro's funeral was nearly a perfect match to that of Kaiyasho's.
Dashiro's soul began to wander all over the city of Kyoto.
He was in despair because his killers had never been brought to justice. He always wanted to do something about it, but as a wandering soul, he knew he couldn't.
He wandered around Kyoto for more than 6 months, until he was spotted by someone, a man dressed in an all black kimono.
He was puzzled that he was there, he was even more astonished that the man was able to see him.
The man explained to Dashiro why he could see him and what he needed to do. He explained that he could send Dashiro to a better place, a place called the soul society.
Because of Dashiro's despair, he gladly accepted.
When he reached the Soul Society, for some reason, his despair had not vanished, he was left still wondering why those thugs had killed him without mercy and why they were still free to go about their business.
He then made a very huge decision, he would become a soul reaper and hand out justice to whomever deserved it.
He found the soul reaper who had sent him to the Soul Society in the first place, and asked him how he can become a soul reaper.
The soul reaper explained in detail the steps it takes to become one, and Dashiro was eager to get started. The soul reaper pointed Dashiro in the right direction, and Dashiro's path to becoming a soul reaper began.
RP Example: Justice
Justice, one of my favorite words.
One thing about justice is is that you can't dish out justice until you look at what you have done in the past.
If you've done bad things, you should atone for your own crimes before even thinking about justice.
One thing I've done.....is not dish out justice.
The people that killed me never got what what was coming to them, I never looked back after that....that was my crime, not doing a damn thing about it.
Killing them would not be justice, just revenge, and revenge is a poison that should never be inhaled.
Justice would be showing them what they should do to turn their own lives around. They should gain the knowledge of death, and learn what happens after death if your life is filled with terrible desires.
The despair after death would destroy the soul.
If your life is filled with purpose, and a valiant life-style, the afterlife will be ten times better, you just have to work extremely hard to achieve that, but it will be more than well worth it.
