General Appearance:

Kyo is generally a small boy. He is not tall at all but you wouldn't really classify him as a midget. Also he is not fat at all. He is actually built with a lean frame, which no one ever sees because of how he dresses. Kyo wears usually dark blue shirt that covers all of his arms. Over that shirt is a basic gray v-neck t-shirt. Kyo also wears dark blue shorts the fall all the way down over his knees. His shoes are nothing special as he only wears basic tennis shoes that are good use for mobility and are comfortable to wear. They are a basic dark blue with a white body and laces blue laces. Kyo overall seems to just be an average boy. On his back, Kyo wears his brown backpack. This is nothing special as well as all it can do it hold his equipment for research and basic notebook and pencils and pens. Finally directly on his back underneath the backpack is his zanpakuto. The blade is laying diagonal on his back with a strap around the front of his chest. The strap is a black strap with a circle like metal in the middle right where the heart is.


IV. Personality

Personality:

Initially, Kyo is a character who seems to be cheeky, cheerful, and full of mischievous ideas. He is also one of the most quick-thinking characters. He is confident in his own abilities, often being humble about it. But when somebody compliments him, he gets easily embarrassed. Kyo is also known for having a sweet tooth, as he spends almost all of his money on snacks. His favorite snack is chocolate, specifically the Chocolate Balls.

However, his ruthlessness and aptitude in killing shows the other side of him — deadly, violent, and bloodthirsty. Having all because he was tortured while in the slum district of the Spirit World. Kyo is not afraid to fight.

Conflicting with Kyo's predisposal to kill is his unyielding loyalty to his friends and natural kindness. Kyo often suffers immensely in his attempts to help his friends without a single complaint. He puts others before himself without being concerned about his own health or even his life.

Kyo's greatest flaw was his fear of those seemingly more powerful than him. Therefore, Kyo is extremely cautious that he only engages in combat provided that victory is absolutely certain.

Likes:

Kyo likes anyone who is like him, which is anyone who is special and has a sort of greatness resting inside of them. Also he only likes those that are powerful. If he views you as weak then he would never speak to you and ignore you to the fullest extent. He also likes listening to people’s stories or even reading stories in a book. What people having resting in their hearts is truly amazing and he loves to experience their stories. Which is why he goes around and collects all the information that he can. He loves to be able to relay a story and become useful to people. Maybe it shows that one day he could find his own story to tell. Or maybe a story that he wants to end.

Dislikes:

Kyo really dislikes those that are weak. He does not seem to get the joy and excitement from those who are weak. Also, even though he loves being around people that are strong. He dislikes having to fight those that are stronger than him. Another thing about him is the he hates not being happy or joyful. He also doesnt like those who want to interfere with the plans of the person that he deemed as powerful and amazing so he would want to try stop those people. Finally, Kyo does not like to fight unnecessary battles. He sees it as pointless as it couldn’t provide any information worth speaking about since he would have to focus more on protection. So he tries to stay away from fighting as much as possible.

Motivations:

He wants to be respected. Even though he seems to be childish and immature, he wants to be respected as an individual. It can be seen he also wants to be taken as seriously as well. It does make a sort of contradiction with his character type but it is a strong motivation for him to be liked by all, which also means that those people respect him as well. Therefore he will work to become respected by those around him. He sees that respect comes from be useful to those around him so he works and trains to be seen as useful.

Fears:

Kyo fears death. He does not like the feeling knowing that his life is going to end so he does whatever it takes to stay alive. That might be one of the reasons why he is trying to find someone who is stronger than him so that he could be protected. He fears that he may never receive all of the information he needs in order to be considered useful. So it could be said that he fears being called useless. In the end, he fears being useless and having someone to protect him that could, in both cases, lead to his death.

Gemi and Mini are generally shown to be very joyful Spirits. While waiting for orders, they dance and make various poses. They don't seem to be very shy. If they could they would go and talk to anyone as possible. They show the inner joy and childishness of Kyo’s heart as they yearn to figure out peoples stories as well. They are always talking to themselves as they are twins and they love to keep secrets. It is told that the twins are able to read the minds of others, however, they keep those secrets to themselves. If they know something that Kyo doesn’t. They find it fun to see him beg and ask for it. Only these two can make Kyo act like he is supposed to, a child. Kyo sees both of these guys as equals to they like to act as much as friends as possible. Knowing this they like to joke around and be mischievous while also they like to help Kyo out. Most of this would because of their ability to understand people which is the complete opposite of Kyo so they would tell him who is strong and who is not and also who to follow and who not to follow. In the end they make everything they do into a game. A game Kyo doesn’t mind playing.

VIII. History

History:

Kyo is no ordinary kid. Well his life was ordinary but he was always seen as extraordinary. He spent most of his life down in the slums of the outer circle. Never could he find himself past the gates. Never would he ever see what the inside of the Spirit World looked like. So as a normal child, he spent a large bit of his life running around and playing with friends. In reality, he had to force out the name of friends. He never saw a single person to be truly a friend. How could he? They were all on different levels some seemed above and some seemed below. But never was there someone who was the same as Kyo. He spent most of his time running around the slums making it seem like he was having fun with these so called friends, but he was actually gathering information.

Kyo spent most of his time as a sort of researcher. Sometimes he would call himself Sherlock, a name from a book that was once in the human world, except he could never fulfill that name, for he could not get the hat. He liked that name. It was cool and mysterious. Almost like Sherlock.

So back to the story of Kyo being a researcher. Kyo would run around with his so called friends and while doing so he would collect information. This information varied from the size of the town to the people inside of it. All of the information he gathered was useful and all written down in his little notebook that he found off the side of the road. His information base became so grand that people would come to him to spy or even research for them. Kyo found this interesting because of all the different stories that he got to hear and see with his own eyes so he would comply. Kyo had such a vast clientele that it attracted people from very dangerous groups.

He didn’t know it then but information is almost as strong as the money itself that pays for it. People from various mob groups would try to receive information on one another. Kyo never really cared about spying on his clientele because of the excitement and thrill that it gave him. Their stories at the time were the most interesting that anything else. He would make them the top priority. It was because of that priority that he got into trouble to begin with. Once the mob groups found out that he was working for the enemy, they captured and tortured him. Some valuable piece of information was learned that day.

Kyo spent most of his time from then on tied up or dragged around and owned for all of his information for free. They even stole all that he had earned in the past and called it compensation. Kyo truly thought that this meant that he was going to die. He did until one day. One day Kyo was locked up in a warehouse that was located not to far off from the Gate that went into where the great Shinigamis lived. This was such a thrilling sight. If Kyo tried hard enough, he could see through the mud stained windows and look at the grand tower. According to his information, that was where the leader of the Shinigami’s lived. The leader looked over everything that has to do with the souls. Which was ironic, Kyo was a soul. A soul that was being tortured. A soul that was seen as next to nothing. A soul that will not be saved, or so he thought.

After his usual interrogation from the great leaders who wanted all that he knew, Kyo would just stare out at the tower. Dreaming of what it would be like inside the walls. For a kid that doesn’t dream, this was a first and it was special. The blood dripped from his face and smeared onto the floor below. The leaders were kind enough to make sure to keep cleaning the blood off of him when it came time to talk once again. This way it made it a lot easier to hit him and cause more damage in different places. Still, there he was dreaming about the same old white tower. He stared at it all the way until he passed out from the pain.

He dreamed of wearing a sword on his back. He dreamed of various books and information piled all around him. He dreamed of hearing all of the stories from the world. The dream was interrupted. Kyo eyes fluttered for a second as the musty old warehouse came into view again. He could hear distant screams from his surroundings. Kyo wanted to look around, but he could not. His body was too weak. Kyo just sat there and panted heavily. He panted heavily until all of the screams stopped.

Kyo raised his head slightly to look around. He tried to use all the strength he had left. Finally he heard footsteps right behind him. He couldn’t make out the voice as it was muffled in his blood filled ears. But what he could hear was that he was being order to move with them or in this case carried because soon after Kyo passed out.

When Kyo came to he was inside a pearly white room. Here he was strapped into a machine that flowed fluids into his arm. Kyo looked around the room. Kyo turned to look out the window as he felt the sunlight hit his face. What he wanted to see was the tower. But he didn’t know it would have been that close because there right next to the pearly white room was the tower. Sitting there just as big as he had imagined. Kyo eyes widened with delight at such a sight.

Kyo could just stare out the window all day if he could. He did actually for most of the days that he stayed there and got stronger. It was like he was living in a dream. It became his normal routine. He would wake up and consume whatever food was placed in front of him. Then after a rest, he would awake just to look out the window. He continued doing this until one day a man walked into the room. Kyo could not see his face but could see his silhouette through the curtains. The man sat down in a chair. “Hello my boy…” The mans voice was soft yet had a sort of strictness to it. “I see that you have awoken and have become stronger as the days go on.” There was some age in there too as he could pick out. Kyo wanted to speak but for some reason no words would come out. The man shifted in the seat. “Now now…don’t speak..” He said softly. “You have yet to recover.” Kyo just looked at the curtain. “AS you stay here I would like to propose something…”

The man just sat there for a long time. Kyo wondered why he didn’t speak. He had something to propose and yet had lost his words. It was curious on how some people work. It felt like a good 15 minutes until the man spoke once more. “I have a proposition to make you. You don’t have to answer now, but you have until you are fully recovered to leave your response.” The man tapped his foot slightly. “I heard you were good with information. IN fact you lived to find such info.” The man mumbled to himself slightly. “What I want to propose is that you heal up and once you do you have a choice. The first choice is that you go back to your same old life with those same people you call friends. Or…” The man paused again. “Or you come and work for me..here inside the gate.”

Kyo eyes widened the instant he said it. Kyo wanted to scream his answer but all he could let out was the sound of a muffled cry. Kyo raised his arms to grab the curtain and look at the mans face. But when he finally got the cloth and pulled it back all he could see was his back. On the back, was something interesting. It was a diamond with a horizontal line going through the middle. Kyo paused and thought about the symbol and then finally his eyes widened. The man was a shinigami!

Kyo soon recovered and finally started his life as a Shinigami.

Many years continued further on and Kyo found himself working deeper and deeper into the functions of the Shinigami world. Life seemed a little bit different to him. He first was put into the 12th division in order to find himself deeper into the world of the informant. However, it was getting to the point where his knowledge needed to move further. It needed to help others. From then on he found himself finding himself deeper into the world of internal affairs. This seems a little weird that a kid would find himself in that position. However, in order to know how the world works and how to keep the affairs in line, one must know the information of what is around them. Kyo delved himself deeper and deeper into this subject and one day he was given an opportunity.

It seemed as though there was a death in the Gotei 13 captains squad. The death of the 9th Divisions captain. Weirdly enough, he had worked with this squad with many different informational outlets to help them with the internal affairs of the spirit world. What was even weirder was that the Captain of Squad 1 and his savior, decided it was time for Kyo to have a promotion. He gave Kyo a promotion to Captain. Kyo thought this a little weird that he was moving up to captain because the current captain of the 12th division was still alive. The 1st squad captain laughed and corrected himself. Kyo was going to be the Captain of the 9th division.

Years continued to flow on by like it was water. Kyo spent many days underneath a pile of paper and stamps. He even spent most of his time trying to figure out how to help the other people. Not to mention during this process, he was introduced to some excruciating training. He had to learn fast how to create his Shikai and then a Bankai. This was one of the many tests to become a Captain. So he was put up to the test. Therefore, Kyo spent years on top of working with the Lieutenant in order to get himself up to that level. One day he finally met them. His blade and zanpakuto was named Tsuinzu or in other words the twins. These weird creatures had names called Gemi and Mini or together they are Gemini. The winds of truth. Which is what their inner world seemed like. Funny creatures and never a bore. Kyo had fun with them always.

But his training was not complete. It was time for him to train Bankai. This continued on for many years as well with little to no break. Paper work then training. Paper work then training. It seemed as though this was never going to stop! It wasnt until later on that the work seemed to be pulled off. In a flash Bankai was learned. Well not really a flash but he learned it none of the less. Kyo finally was able to be considered a captain. What fun! That was then when he was in charge of his division and gained all the rights. This was not so fun. But still he got to do something that he loved. He got a chance to dive deeper into information and then to help the spirit world itself! This was a blessing in disguise and Kyo has yet to see it. Maybe something will come along and wake him up. Maybe something like a crisis. A crisis that is going to need the help of a little boy who is also a captain.

IX. Other

RP sample:

Kyo sat on the roof of the Shinigami Tower. His feet hang softly over the ledge and swing back and forth to a unknown beat found in Kyo’s head. He slowly leans back and rests his hands on the cool metal. In doing so he would look out over the edge and see the whole Spirit World below. Kyo could not lean as far back as he wanted because of his blades that are strapped to his back. Normally one would take these off but Kyo knew he needed to be as close as possible, so that maybe one day they would decide to speak to him.

Kyo had always dreamed about their voices. Let alone he always dreamed about what their name would be. What would a twin blade possibly be named? He had run through countless names in his head, but for some reason none of them had ever seem to fit. His Sensei, or his captain, told him that it would take time for his bond to be strong enough for the blades to seem trusting enough to call him his friend. Which was weird, he never thought he would call his own blades friends. It makes sense though. A friend is someone who is considered an equal. The blade is an extension of ones self therefore it would be considered his equal.

What he couldn’t wait to see was what his Shikai looked like. Shikai was something cool! That was what he was told. It was something that shows a glimpse of the true power of the blade. What kind of abilities would this thing manifest? Would it be elemental or some sort of cool sword. Kyo had seen so many people walking around with their blade and each and every one of them was unique. Not a single one was the same. Kyo had done some research using the equipment in the lab to find out everything he could about these blades, like where they came from and why they possess such amazing powers. He didn’t have much information to go off of but from what he saw from some of the other people during sparing practice it was something cool to experience.

From time to time during meditation, or how one truly communicates with their blade, Kyo had seen people actually talking with their blades. What useful information would his blade bring him? He hoped it was something useful and not something weak. If it was all that he had in the world to impress people and it was weak!?! How could he possibly face anyone! He strives to stay around those that are strong when he was weak sounded like a death sentence. But as of right now he could not just think about it. He needed to go and train. He needed to train because it was something that needed to be done so he wouldn’t have to worry about whether his blade was weak or not.

Kyo slowly began to rise from his seated position. Well he couldn’t really go out and train now because of his job. Kyo slowly walked over to where his Bag was resting and slung it over on his back. With a quick stretch and a nice yawn. Kyo went off to go and do research. Like he had thought before Kyo had to research peoples Zanpakutos. In fact, he was in charge of keeping everyone’s abilities in check. He needed to know each and everyone’s shikais, bankais, and even what their sealed forms looked like. This was all to keep all of the Shinigamis safe and to help bring about justice or whatever the Captain told him he was needed for.

Today Kyo had to go off and research all of the captains and see if they had learned anything new about their bankais or even gotten closer to transcending. From what he could read from all of the piled up information he needed to sort out from his Captain, Transcending was when people become really close to their blades and use the full extent of their powers. So far only a few people in history had come close to making such a feat. So he needed to see if he could learn anything to move that process along.

Kyo put his thumbs into the straps of his bag and let his arms rest softly as he began his normal daily decent. He really liked meeting all of the captains. Even though he didn’t speak much, Kyo truly enjoyed his time observing them. Of course, this was because they were all strong people and all had strong abilities. Kyo always hated being put on the younger recruits or even just the unseated people. They just didn’t seem they had the right stuff, but the Captains were apart of a league all to their own. Each had something special and powerful about them. It was something Kyo enjoyed seeing them most.

Kyo slowly walked down the stairs and finally made it at the bottom. Walking at a naturally brisk pace, Kyo made his ways through the cobblestone streets and walked in between all of the walls that separated each divisions barracks. He had never had the chance to see each of the barracks but he had heard that there was nothing special about them. Not to mention some of them were the ones you wanted to avoid. None of the less, Kyo enjoyed looking at each and every wall as he made his usual rounds. It was such a weird thought that it was only not to long ago that he was brought here in a stretcher and given a job by the Captain of Squad 1. Those were some memories that he never wanted to forget. Each and every one of these walls held memories like the ones that he had. Maybe one day he will be able to hear their stories. Maybe he would get the chance, but first he had a job to do. Kyo grumbled to himself for a second. Maybe he could ask the captains about all of the divisions’ histories. He could probably pass it off as a sort of research thesis. Kyo shrugged to himself slightly and continued on his walk to his first destination.

Of course, his first destination was one of 13 and probably one of his most favorite of stops. It was his stop with the Captain of Squad 1. The very man himself. Kyo smiled and made his final turn. There he saw the tower. Of course, Kyo wondered to himself why he didn’t just go to the office since he started at the tower to begin with but where was the fun in all of that. He got a chance to take a leisurely stroll and made sure that nothing had changed since the last time he walked through the streets. Either way, he was getting his job done. How fun is this going to be! Kyo walked into the tower and made his way to the office of the Captain who started it all.
