| (OOC: Gods, after long consideration, I WILL in fact make this character, along with Kratan. Hopefully i still have Third captain Squad.) ~~~Shinigami~~~ Name: Taraboro Kinko Alias: Few refer to him by anything other than his name. It shuld, however, be noted that some called him "The Balanced One" due to his balanced combat style. Age: Taraboro has been a captain for about Six Months, but in total, his Shinigami career has lasted for 450 years, which is quite young for a captain. Visual Age: Taraboro has the appearance of man in his early Twenties. Gender: Taraboro is a male. Reiatsu Color: Taraboro's reiatsu color is metallic grey, something he himself is quite pleased about. Affiliation: Taraboro is a proud member of the Gotei 13 Division:Taraboro is with the Third Division Rank: Taraboro Kinko is the captain of the Third Division. --------------------Persona-------------------- Appearance: Taraboro considers himself to be exactly average in terms of his physical appearance. He is about Six feet tall, which can be described as the average height of someone his age (Or, someone at the age of 21 anyways.) and weighs about 190 lbs, a weight which personally, Tarabo himself is quite pleased with. In terms of his physical body, Taraboro is actually fairly muscular, a trait which his clothes tend to expose quite a bit. However, he is not bursting with muscles either. He is average. Not too muscular or strong, yet nowhere near skinny or frail. His hair is yellow with a dark tint, which, from afar, may appear to be brown. It spikes up like needles, and is almost impossible to get it smooth. In general, his hair is quite messy and un-organized, one of the few things Taraboro dislikes about his appearance. As for his eyes, they are painted in green, dark green. His gaze can, admittedly, be quite unnerving sometimes, maybe even intimidating, though never on purpose. His combat attire consists of of a black, sleeveless vest, leaving his shoulders and a large portion of his arms exposed. This was mainly worn by Taraboro during his Hakudo training, which he began long before becoming a captain, and still wears it to this very day. Along with this, he also wears two pads on his elbows, black with metal plating on them. This, as well as his vest were used for combat training, and Taraboro usually wears them underneath his other clothing. His formal clothing, as well as the clothes he wears most often, include that of the traditional Shinigami robes, beneath the regular Captain Haori. He mainly wears regular black trousers covering his legs, and has developed a habit of walking around in bare-feet, saying he enjoys allowing air into his body. Personality: Taraboro is calm, peaceful and with manners.He is very likable, at least to most people within the Gotei 13, treating everyone with respect, be it a captain, a Lieutenant, a seated officer or even his enemy for that matter. Though of course, they are still his enemies, and he still considers them so, he is not one to mock or disrespect opponents, whether they are stronger or weaker than him. He rarely gets angry, especially during combat, believing that anger will shroud his thoughts. Therefore, he can easily laugh off insults thrown at him,. Furthermore, he won't even react to someone spilling a drink on him, or attacking him. However, he will react to someone attacking those close to him, his bond with them urging him to retaliate. However, he always keeps his cool. One of his downfalls, something even he himself has indeed admitted to, is that he is far too passive. This meaning that he hardly ever tries to change something, even if he does disagree, instead remaining loyal and following his every order. Though, some times, he may question you, he will not do anything drastic to change. But, deep down inside, he wants to change. He wants to voice his opinions, but has set his own shackles, restricting himself from doing so. --------------------History-------------------- History:- Why Become a Shinigami?:
Why become a Shinigami? That question was bound enter young Taraboro's mind sooner or later. He had been born in District 67 in East Rukongai, being exposed to a harsh life in one of the worst districts ever. Though maybe not as horrible as the lower districts, most namely the 80th, it was not exactly luxurious. His family were often attacked by drunken criminals or just downright idiots who didn't have much better to do.
Taraboro hated it.
He despised everyone who attacked them, and wanted to drive them away. One day, his hatred rose to it's peak when a known troublemaker, the alcohol lingering on his mouth, attacked his family, severely damaging his father and almost killing his mother. Now one thought flooded through his mind. Change. Change this damned place. Change those idiots who attack us, change everything! He knew how to do this, he needed to become a Shinigami.
- Training....:
Training. That was what he needed at this point in time. But it would be hard, very hard indeed, to find it. He saw many shinigamis around, but, in his district, nobody really took him seriously. Nobody except one. The old Third Seat of Squad Three. He said that he saw something in Taraboro, some promise, and so sent him to the academy to receive training in the ways of the Shinigami. At this point, he was 90 years old. Though at first, he was not very skilled, unable to preform Kido, and very flimsy with a blade, Taraboro soon became better, and better, and even better still, until he became one of the top students at the academy.
At one point, one of the students was being bullied by an older one, calling him names and beating him severely. Taraboro, feeling the intense rage yet again, jumped in and defeated the bully in battle, thus forming a long-lasting Friendship with this boy. Later on, he became a very powerful Shinigami, and a balanced fighter. He was eventually recruited to be an un-seated officer of the Third Division By the Third Seat that he had met in Rukongai..
- A Shinigami At Last.:
A Shinigami at last. Finally, Taraboro would be able to make a change. He went on a few missions, along with his Squad, whom he already knew quite well, though Taraboro never did much. However, he still enjoyed meaning something, and his superiors treated him well. He killed his first hollow on his fifth mission, when he and a few members of squad Three had to split up. Though relatively weak, Taraboro felt proud, as did his Squad-Mates.
A few years later later, Taraboro finally awakened Shikai, after a training session lasting an entire day. This allowed him to move up in rank, becoming the new Fourth Seat of Squad Three, and soon ascending into the rank of Third Seat, ,as the old one had been promoted to Lieutenant.. However, his opinion on combat would soon change. One-by-one, their opponents grew stronger, and whilst Taraboro always survived, his companions began to be injured during missions
Eventually, one died.
This was the first time Taraboro had witnessed the death of one of his companions. Later on, his Lieutenant one of his best friends at this point, was also killed, leaving Taraboro in a long period of mourning. After so, his opinion on combat now forced him to leave his squad, instead moving to a passive squad, specializing in Healing and Kido. He joined Squad 4.
He stayed in Squad 4 for over a hundred years, becoming a specialist in healing, reaching the rank of Lieutenant in no time. At the same time, he discovered the identity of the Third seat. It was his friend from the Academy.
He was happy in his new squad, though, something inside him kept asking him to return to his old squad. He always refused.
That was...until the war.
- Blue Moon War:
The Blue Moon War. It struck very suddenly. Thousands of Shinigami, both the weak and the strong, were sent to the battle-field. However, squad 4 stayed behind, ready for their healing. Taraboro inner-personality tugged at him harder than ever before, begging him for battle, but he restrained it.
He had too.
However, the news he would hear finally broke him. The captain of Squad Three had been killed. By one of the Espada, apparently. But, his captain stopped him from getting revenge. He was forced to simply stay back and watch the horror ensue.
They won, at last, they won. But it didn't feel like a victory. Not for Taraboro. During the Aftermath, a messenger came, saying that he was to be promoted to the rank of Third Division Captain.
He accepted. Now, he could finally make a change. But, he would remain his passive self, as to make sure he did not end up killing himself.
And to this day, he has remained calm....
