Basic Information
Name: Kanashi Ushimagu
Age: 25
True Age: 1000
Sex: Male
Personality: Kanashi is a very dark and gloomy man and is a terribly sneaky and sly man whom many people cannot bring themselves to trust unless they know him well.He Is a polite man but much like Gin he seems to be, and often is planning something. Though he is a dark and somewhat hateful man he has a great sense of humor and can be quite social.He also likes to show off in front of ladies and is known as quite a flirt. He is straightedge and has never drank or smoked in his life so he is often caught with energy drinks such as monster Redbull and Jolts to keep him going long periods of time.
Kanashi has had a somewhat depressing life and music has always gotten him through it though many people never knew how dark his life really was... That is the major reason why he loves music and he finds it as an escape from the world. He learned to play Electric Guitar at age 10 up to par with even the great slash as he practiced every spare second of the day and had a lot of natural talent for the instrument. He could also sing very well much like the lead singer of Pierce The Veil.He often sings while playing his guitar and people all over would pay him to sing around them.
He is a very sarcastic man and sometimes you may not even be able to pick up on the fact that he is using it.He loves to trash talk during battle due to the fact he knows for a fact he can back it up and he enjoys doing just that.Battle is his seond favorite thing to do in the world of course since nothing could surpass music in his mind.In his spars and fights he is often quick to jump straight to Shikai or Bankai and sometimes even just throw his mask on without so much as a how do you do. This often leads people to think he is a very power hungry man and this is only true to an extent.
Kanashi may love power but he would not go out of his way to do it any possible way besides training and work. This is what separates his hunger for power from other power hungry people thus he can be a power hungry good guy.This does not mean that he would never become evil. Oh no if he was given the right powers he would indeed become evil but no one would ever believe that before it was to late. Kanashi is a very friendly man once you get to know him and vice versa but never would he value friendship over his or his organization that he is fully aligned to's welfare.
Kanashi when he finds himself settled somewhere is a very loyal man otherwise not so much which is why he left the Gotei 13 for the Kashimaku. Kanashi does not feel that his life should be destroyed for the betterment of a few people. Therefore Humans to him are worthless pieces of trash and he does not mind watching Hollows kill them. The only time he will bother to save them is if they are pregnant have a baby or they are a child.Then in that case Kanashi will kill them on a whim and won't think twice about it.
Kanashi is very friendly to woman and children and this sometimes leads people to make false assumptions about his character.This being said not many people are half as caring of there loved ones as Kanashi is.The only downfall to this is they are all dead which often makes him very sad and he sings them a song every night to the stars in private.Not many people know of this habit of his and fewer would even recall it. But those who did remembered the sweetest songs and the sweetest voice they ever heard.

Fighting Style
General Fighting Style: Kanashi loves to trash talk during his fights and often gets highly irritable opponents pissed off fast with sheer annoyance and skill.If you are slow he will run circles around you easily but he does not know a lick of Kidou due to the fact he never practiced the techniques of Kidou. He is so bad at Kidou he does not no a single Kidou not Bakudo not Hadou. This leads many people to believe he should put more time fourth but he disagrees.He is content with his Kidou usage.
He has a lot of stamina and can continue fighting for long periods of time and loves to do so as he loves to prolong every fight he can. His strength is not very good either and he could never be in a power fight with a brute. He would less easily and undoubtedly but his Speed and Shunpo and Sonido make up for this anyway.His Hand To Hand Combat is also damn near non existent so for this he just try's to attack quickly.He also is a very durable person and can take a lot of damage and does not know his limits.
Strengths: Hoho Zangetsu Durability Hollow Powers Stamina Speed.
Weaknesses: Doesn't know any Kidou. Sucks at hand to hand combat and has barely any strength.

The electricity in this guitar is actually not Electric at all it is Reitsu and just by being held by Kanashi it can play. It can be used as a weapon as the bottom can shoot out a spear like tip that can impale people. The Guitar cannot break by any means that would not break another Zanpokuto at this stage.
Abilities: Guitars Vibe- When he strums his guitar and adds his Reitsu to the mix a supersonic blast as strong as a Cero in a half and half as fast as a Cero is launched at the foe and has a range of 150 yards.Can only be used once a post.

Can be used once every 5 post.
The show must go on-The strings launch from his guitar and attempt to stab the foe as they are just as sharp as any other Shikai level Zanpokuto.If he says entangle they will then attempt to wrap around the foe as one launches for whatever limb he sings the name of and unless they are powerful enough to destroy them which would be power equal to A cero in a half they will take the hit. Physically they must be equal in power to Kanashi. Its not an auto hit but it will be very hard to dodge as well if they cannot break it.The strings are 200 yards long.6 strings leave the guitar.

The Thespian, The forbidden verses- "Look at you, you miserable fool" His voice turns demoniacally low and he sings this as a finishing move as his strings latch out 150 yards to cling on the foe and they track the foes Reitsu until they are entangled and they move at 1 fourth the speed of Bala.Strings have all the same attributes as the Shikai ones.

Inner Hollow
Appearance:
Personality: Kanashi's Hollow is a complete and utter dickhead but does indeed care about Kanashi though he is not very open about it. A matter of fact he usually acts like a dick to Kanashi not to say he is a dick in every sense of the word.He can actually be a very awesome Hollow and a cool friend.Kanashi knows this and loves his Hollows knack for sarcasm. Unlike most Hollows Kanashis Hollow does not want to kill him dead which makes Kanashi feel better about having him.
The hollow loves music and often has Kanashi play some for him just like Kanashis Zanpokuto Spirit does. They also sometimes when no one is around carry on little conversations on music that almost never end in an argument.His favorite genres are Metal Core Death Core and Screamo though he can listen to some soft metal like Pierce The Veil.

Back Drop
Background: Kanashi Ushimagu was born in London and as such he was exposed to a lot of Heavy Metal Screamo and otherwise punkish rock songs and bands.When he was 4 He began to like all of that and could name more bands than almost anyone by age 7. He always got good grades in school but could never stay out of trouble. One day in 1st grade a teacher made him mad and he punched him dead square in the face with brass knuckles and knocked one of his teeth out.This was when it began going down hill though...
The teacher sued the parents and they were on the streets and his mom finally was tired of it and Overdosed a month later. This was almost to much for his dad and his dad continually blamed Kanashi for it and was abused for most of his life and when he finally got tired of being Abused he hit his dad at age 10.He ran away and lived alone for years and he was about to freeze to death.One day though when he was finally about to drop dead as a causality of a hard life that could never rebound, something happened. Something that would change his life forever.
He was on the streets laying there, barely breathing and no one cared no one at all he was face down on the deck and not getting up. A woman picked him up and carried him home and tried to help him. She was a nurse so she had him on Ivs and in a Warm toasty household.The woman was about 40 and use to be a manage to many large bands and singers. She always loved the genre of Metal and rock.Little did she know he would become an icon of the genre soon. It was when he woke up he figured out what had happened and he sit down and cried. He cried all night long when he found out his dad had died from the same thing he almost did and promised he would never cry again.
He soon became a large help to the old woman and her daughter whom was about 10 in her own right and they got along merrily.They grew up and it turned out she was musically talented and he decided he would try to be to. They both could sing and play instruments but she played bass guitar and rhythm and sang like Carrie Underwood. He play Electric Guitar and sounded like Pierce The Veil and could scream like Alesana and White Chapel. They always loved to show off.This would help them in the near future and they had no clue how much.
One day the woman came home crying he wondered what could possibly have went wrong he went up with the girl and began to comfort her and then soon learned she had been layed off.More terrifying was the fact that unless she came up with money they would be homeless to. Kanashi wouldn't let that happen, not this time. He grabbed his guitar and his pic and his microphone he got for Christmas and stormed out the door as the daughter began to comfort her. He began to play on the streets for money.
His first night he came in at 4 in the morning Tired as hell but with 200 dollars in the cup as he woke up the two woman to show them. After the two woman celebrated he slumped out of there and fell into bed passed out and woke up at 10 am in the morning. He ate Breakfast and continued to do this every day of his life until his 14th birthday finally something happened.He had a gig with his sister who though did not have such a stressful schedule did the same as he did.He had began to call the woman his sister as she was the only person he valued. It stayed that way for a while.
They played the concert and did great and they both got signed to Fearless Records and began to get tons of money. They gave it all to the person who supported them for that whole time and this continued until they turned 20. Then something that shook Kanashis life happened. The woman and her daughter where being eaten by a Hollow they told him to run. He didn't want to run but his feet carried him elsewhere. When he escaped he cried and cried and knew he broke his vow which made him cry more than straighten up.He then met a wonderful girl who treated him right and he swore he would let nothing hurt her. Not this time.
The band was going great they were very popular and everyone knew who he was and they knew him as a music icon. He had went platinum on his first three albums and when he turned 25 the woman he secretly loved broke his heart. He walked to her door to ask her out with a bouquet of flowers in a tuxedo to ask her out on her birthday. When she opened the door she was in a dress and said she had a date that night. He was heartbroken but he hid it and said happy birthday and left. He went home depressed sad and angry and turned on the news.
There was a newsflash of a serial rapist and killer in chat rooms online and he had posted the same pic on all the sites. What was more disturbing is that it was the same picture and they were meeting behind a closed theater. He rushed to grab his keys and ran out the door. He turned his car on and drove the brand new Corvette not knowing it would be the last time he drove it ever... He pulled up and ran to see she was already raped and had a gun pointed at her the guy saw him and shot him in the stomach. Kanashi dropped and as the woman scrambled the guy hit her and pointed the gun at her she screamed the man fired.BANG.
Kanashi had ran in front of the shot and was bleeding from being shot in his stomach again. This time it went through to major arteries and a vital organ Kanashi was dead and had a few moments left at best. She cried out "just wait here Kanashi I will get help" as she grabbed for her phone hand he grabbed her hand. and held it tightly.He spoke faintly "don't bother I can feel he has severed an artery or two and an organ I am dead but at least let me say this before I die". She cried and he held steadily. He looked her dead in the eye "I love you" as soon as he said this blood bubbled through his mouth and he died.She cried and the man was arrested.
All was good in the Soul Society and Kanashi continued to wow people with his musical talent in the Seretei and then he finally got bored.He decided to try out for the position of Shingami and passed in a few years of hard work but never learned a single Kidou.He waltzed into the Seretai and was immediately the 5th seed of squad 13 without Shikai. He learned Shikai quite fast and then became the Vice Captain. Soon enough with tough training he learned Bankai and was made Captain.His life soon yet again would change for the worst.
One night he awoke and was fighting a Hollow inside of him and he couldn't believe how similar it was to him. They formed a truce and long story short the battle ended in a draw and they decided to get along. They actually never attempted to kill one or the other which ended up very good for both.He soon realized that he would leave the Gotei 13 and he wandered around for a couple hundred years till he somehow ended up in Bogota. Of course then he felt large quantities of Spiritual Pressure much like his.He followed it but as he was starving and collapsed right in front of them.
Side Notes: He has music based abilities... All of his abilities that require Singing can be interrupted just like Incantations can but he must be hit to stop them but if he is charged and has to dodge he must restart.
