Basic Information
Name:Merodī, Arekkusu (Yukio)
Age: 26
True Age: 941
Sex: Male
Personality: Yukio is a simple with simple needs. A couple of rounds of sake and a party of women isn't too much ask for right? “You only live once so I'm gonna live every moment like it's my last.”(Merodī, Arekkusu (Yukio)) Despite his rank the shinigami is a firm believer of equality. Captains, lieutenants, seated officers, unseated officers all meaningless titles. It is by the spiritual pressure in which bonds all people and spirits alike as one. This mindless allows the captain to have a down to earth personality, ultimately leading to the friendship of many even those us unlikely circumstances.(different spiritual races) This easygoing persona is just the positive side of his package-like traits. Though Yukio is envied upon by many shinigami he also has quite the negative reputation around all the Soul Society. Shamefully, Yukio is a proud “Out of the closet” pervert, chasing skirts all throughout the Seireitei and Rukongai in his free time.
Likes: “Likes? Hmm lets see, I like woman, humoring puns, shogi, winning, fresh recruits,.....panties…...woman……did I mention that I like women?” He says cluelessly, twirling the little fuzz under his chin playfully.
Fears: “Fears? What kind of death god would I be if I had fears?” He spoke brusquely, swiftly folding his arms and turning his head from his interviewer as if a toddler throwing a tantrum, hoping the subject would be dropped. He opens one eye to peep at the shocked shinigami who did not appear as if he were leaving anytime soon. “Fine, fine, I’ll spill the beans…” He surrendered. “You got to swear not to tell anyone and I mean ANYONE!” He further extended the unnecessary drama. “I'm afraid of what every real man is afraid of deep, deep, deep inside…” He glanced at his urked interviewer, noticing key traits. He was probably man enough. “You know what I’m talking about don't you, aye mate?” He spoke in a weary tone. The shinigami shrugged casually, completing unaware of what this man was talking about. “YOU FOO! How could you not get it!?” Yukio whispered hoarsely. “UGLY WOMAN, SCARY WOMEN, TAKEN WOMEN, ALL DEMONS IN DISGUISE!” **
The rest of that afternoon, Yukio educated the shinigami who had came to interview him on the fears of a true man.
Character Appearance
Height: 6’0ft (183.21 cm)
Weight: 183lbs
Physical Traits: Clothing: Yukio wears a standard, sleeveless Shihakushō with a mini jacket-like trimmed, sleeveless Haori that proudly represents the kidou corps (squad 5)
Accessories: All around the he is garbed in standard shinigami attire aside his bandages that shroud both his hands. These are necessary to help hide his reiatsu, which stands out in the soul society considering he has an inhumane amount of it.
Fighting Style
General Fighting Style: Ironically this Hadou dominating machine doesn't like to resort to violence at all. He’d rather use his charm and sense of humor to make enemies drop their guards. Thanks to this mindset, Yukio hasn't drawn his Zanpakuto in two thousand years, shamefully forgetting the name of his own Zanpakuto.(His little secret) With the exception of Kaido style kido, Yukio represents squad 5 with a barrage of kidou spells to dominate the battlefield when necessary. Other than that, he usually toys with his prey, Demonstrating his mastery of Hohō along with his mastery of “loving to hear myself talk.”
Strengths: Kido (All mastered with the exception of kaido, leaving the healing magic to the 4th division. His kaido, however, is average)
Weaknesses: Zanjutsu (Bakudō spells can only do so much to defend against monstrous melee attacks, especially in their release forms)
Zanpakuto & Kidou
Sealed Appearance: Withdrawn:Spirit’s Name: Unknown (Yukio addresses him as “Hey you!” when they use to talk. Now there's no communication at all)
Spirit’s Appearance:- Spoiler:
Spirit’s Personality: Yukio wouldn't know, they no longer communicate through one another. Back when when they use to all they ever did was stare at each other until their bonding trans ended.
Inner World: Yukio wouldn't know that either, one can only assume that that shadow lives somewhere in the shadows.
Kidou: Head of Kidoushuu: The head or captain of kidoushuu can cast all canon kidou including the forbidden kidou.
Shikai
Call Out Command:Unnecessary in his case
Appearance:Unknown
Abilities:Unknown
Boosts:Unknown
- Spoiler:
Shikai
Call Out Command:I know you're there, Yukio
[i]Appearance: The user's blade extends into a long, seemingly harmless belt. In its common state it extends to a normal, man’s medium waist size but activated the belt leather can extend to 50 km max. Shinigami attire remains generic.
Abilities:In shikai state, the blade merely latches itself onto its foe and gradually absorbs the users very life force. What makes this dark attributed weapon so devastating is that Yukio has a mind of its own. It's safer this life hungry blade stays in the hand of its user versus being set free on its own.
Boosts:Whatever Reishi Yukio(Zanpakuto) drains is replenished into Yukio’s (shinigami) spiritual pressure in which he uses to supply his kido.

Back Drop
Background: Born a soul never to breath the fresh, moist, air of the living, Yukio was born a spirit within the Rukongai districts. Within his early life he clearly represented the true means of a stray, born however wasn’t raised. Mischief was the only way a peasant such as himself could even afford something as red bean soup however he didn’t care, his optimism kept him going.
As time progressed the young child began to to develop a negative reputation around the Rukongai district. He adopted the alias the “Freelance Kid” and continued a series of minor crimes all around the battered district to keep him and his boys fed. At the premature age Yukio was certain that the Court Guards Squads were to blame for their misery. The notorious “Freelance Kid” was getting a little bit too over his head when he along with his posse of abandoned and/or lost delinquents attempted to rush into the seireitei and defeat the captain commander themselves. The following day the gang of wanna-be thugs made their way to one of the Gate Guardians locations to force their way in. They weren't really aware of what they were up against until they saw the massive size shinigami who stood no lower than about five feet or so below the enormous gate. Yukio was clearly out of his league however he didn't care, his optimism kept him going.
An imaginary long, drawn out, honorable battle had been shattered by reality within a matter of moments. The young boy had almost literally been squashed by the competition. With just the sway of his hand the Gate Guardian set the Freelance Kid’s reputation on fire with broad force. Yukio, fidgeting like an upside down turtle under the grasp of the Gate Guardian, hammered the beast size man with his puny hands, not realizing his efforts were futile. Yukio turned for the support of his aids but they had all cowered away. The Gate Guard laughed on at the child, insulting his strength and then the loyalty of his men. He continued to laugh on as he belittled the child's hopes and dreams until he realized he was laughing alone. He peered down in confused irritation at Yukio who was laughing too. Despite his odds of facing the profession killer and the betrayal of his boys his optimism kept him going.
Having made up his mind that this child was just some retarded fool the Gate Guardian proceeded to crushing the boy. As he squeezed lightly, the snapping of the child's bones could be heard miles away. The shinigami thought he'd rather be enjoying himself however the brat was still smiling through the outbursts of his shrieking screams. Frustrated, the shinigami, decided to just end him without making the child suffer, enforcing his grip with all the pressure his biceps would allow however Yukio just wouldn't die.
Soon enough a shinigami of higher status would come along in a white coat, casually making his presence known. He’d ordered the Gate Guardian to release Yukio and without hesitation the hunormous soldier did as he was told. The upper classed shinigami smirked at the site as if disappointed and turned around in which he came. The almost paralyzed Yukio managed to look up and catch the number on the back of the white cloak of the shinigami, 5. Miskenning the white cloak for the head captain’s very own, Yukio found the strength to get up and lunge at the unaware enemy, ready to protect himself from any melee damage from the captain’s katana only to be knocked away by nothing. Yukio stared in beedy eyes, confused as to what had just happen. He felt himself slipping off into an unbearable doze-like state. He managed to Hear the word “Bakudou” before he fell unconscious. Though he was completely out of it someway, somehow he was able to feel the captain approach his body, peering down into the boys grinning face.
After that, he awoke in the Seireitei and a new life awaited. He was transferred into the Shin'ō Academy by the order of the anonymous captain of squad 5 themselves. He was transferred around the same time as another young man by the name of Katsu Matsumoto who took a serious interest in the 5th division. There, Yukio spent 4 four years mastering all the basic skills in which shinigami are to be taught while in the process learning about kidou, the art in which defeated him years back. He took interest in the art and pursued mastering its usage. He’d purposely had his graduation postponed while he mastered more complex forms of kido as his peers went on to their divisions. As for Katsu, he ironically became the Captain of Squad 5 like he had dreamed. Naturally, Yukio would forget all his hate for the Captain Commander and ironically end up defending the Gotei 13 with his own hands. With a smile, Yukio had supported his friend but now, fresh out of the Shin'ō Academy Yukio, now fully skilled in his art wishes to pursue a name for himself.
Side Notes: The alias, “Yukio” is a name in which has no significant meaning to the shinigami. It's not apart of his real name, nor has anyone ever gave him the name, He can't quite recall where it derives from.[/i][/i][/i][/i]
