"Ignore everything but your fear..."
■ Height : 5'9"
■ Weight :129lbs
■ Eyes : Green
■ Hair : Brown
■ Skin : Pale
■ Overall : Relatively tall and of average build he isn't exactly anything impressive to look at. As with most soul reapers he wears the standard uniform, though has personalised it with a scarf/sash tied to his left shoulder. Due to the length of his hair Hisoka chooses to keep the majority of it bound up via a lavender tie/ribbon. The right side of his hair rarely seems to be bound as well as the left, with his bangs mostly covering his right eye and a seeming loose 'tuft' of hair covering the right side on the back of his neck.
Well I never pray
But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

"If the devil does not rest then nor can we, we must draw our blades and keep them high"
■ Sanity : ██████████
■ Friendliness : ██████████
■ Aggression : ██████████
■ Intelligence : ██████████
■ Virtues : Some here and there, really it's all about his mood at a given time that really determines what he'll be like in regards to this
■ Sins : Wrath
■ Likes : You getting the hell away from him, heat, having something to do so that he won't have to socialise with other people, seclusion
■ Dislikes : His zanpakuto being in a bad mood, the cold, being in a large group, sake, people touching him at all
■ Overall :
On the whole Hisoka is neither out to make friends, nor make enemies, he simply wants to get things done as is and move on to something new. With this he's generally rather reserved, not usually wishing to mix into larger groups for the simple fact people tend to irritate him terribly. This is perhaps no bad thing for the fact that larger groups tend to lead to parties, and parties tend to lead to sake... Something that is an incredibly bad for Hisoka as he absolutely cannot handle his alcohol at all, his intolerance for it is so bad that simply one cup of sake can drive him right off the edge of being sober and into an utterly drunk state. During such times he becomes a far more cheery individual, one far more willing to talk to people and cut back to have a laugh.
In general terms Hisoka just seems like an incredibly introverted person, he never really seems happy or sad, he just kind of seems to be neutral. This can at times make people incredibly weary of him, or adversely leave him far to open for insults as it takes a lot to push him to the point of saying anything back. This can very often give Hisoka the appearance of being weak to others, making it easy for any with a higher rank to look down on him as some pushover grunt that's far to meek to stand up for himself. Realistically it's more that he just doesn't give a damn, you can say what you want however you want and unless he sees an sense in it he's likely going to shrug it off and give you the cold shoulder. If it comes down to people physically pushing him around though then it's all to possible you're going to get a damn hard smack around the head from him, being physically abused is hardly something he'll stand for. This may though be partially down to the fact that he doesn't actually like being touched at all, whether it be a friendly pat on the shoulder or a smack in the face he's not really one to appreciate it.
Hisoka's main downfall is perhaps his incredibly explosive temper, whilst it does take a hell of a lot to actually push him into anger once there he becomes downright violent, verbally and on occasion physically. Despite not actually being a stupid person once he gets himself into this state of mind it's safe to say he doesn't exactly think things through as well as he normally would, something looked down upon by many. During these times he's very much content to go through anyone to get to what it is he wants to cut down, regardless of if they are a friend to him or not. As such it's wise enough for those of lower power to him to step back and let it pass, those of a higher level though are perfectly free to kick his ass for being a stupid prat.
In regards to respect.... Due to Hisoka's somewhat cold and offhanded personality he doesn't really just hand out respect, nor trust. You can be his captain or what the hell ever you want, but unless you've actually earned the right to respect then you're really not going to get any from him. Of course if you're a superior officer he will follow your orders, but be aware that this is not him actually accepting you as someone he should look up to. Hisoka really has little regard for class either, to him a name is a name, in his eyes it really gives you no more rights than anyone else unless you yourself have actually earned such. Being born with a silver spoon in your mouth does not by definition mean you are someone worth looking up to. A near sure way to actually determine his thoughts on you is by the names and titles he uses on you, someone who's of the same rank as him or lower will have their last name used at all times if he has no respect for them, the first name use signifies he trusts you deeply. When it comes to superiors he will always use only your rank, and example being 'captain', if he has little regard for you, though the attachment of your later name, such as 'captain Kuchiki', means he does in fact regard you as someone to honour.
No change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
And I'm a million different people

"Strong? No.... But I will kill you..."
■ Kido : ██████████
■ Flashstep : ██████████
■ Hand-to-hand : ██████████
■ Swordsmanship : ██████████
■ Overall :
For the most part he's relatively well rounded in his abilities, he's neither stunningly good in one area, nor terribly bad in another. On the whole he's a rather average fight in terms of skill set, though it's clear that hid forte is in fact swordsmanship, whilst his downfall is his hand-to-hand. He's neither something special at the moment, nor something to be underestimated.

"She is a blazing hound from hell, and she will burn away your ashes!"
■ Zanpakuto Name : Tsuisuto Unmei (Twisted fate ithinkandhope83)
■ Spirit Manifestation : Black Dog
■ Sword Type : Nodachi
■ Zanpakuto Type : Fire
■ Zanpakuto Description :
Being that a nodachi is far longer and heavier than a katana, Hisoka usually uses both hands to wield it, though due to being stronger than humans this is not necessary for him.
As is customary with this type of blade Hisoka wears it across his back in times of peace, though during times of conflict it is far more likely that it will be at his hip. This really does depend on his preparation for the conflict, if he wasn't expecting it then of course he'll have to draw the blade from his back.
The binding on Tsuisuto is a black material, and unlike many blades the cross-guard is in fact a silverish color. The cross-guard itself folds in toward the blade at six points, giving it a look reminiscent to a lotus flower. The scabbard is of the same color as the hilt's binding.
On a side note Onmei is actually a female zanpakuto~
■ Shikai Command : 'Spark in the fires of sorrow, Tsuisuto Unmei'
■ Shikai :
In its shikai Unmei isn't presently able to randomly spark fire, rather it needs a source. The main source used by Unmei is the 'hair' that surrounds the blade, due to the fact that said hair is actually thousands, perhaps more, of long and serrated (yet incredibly flexible) blades any movement of this hair causes incredible amounts of friction which spawn many small sparks that Hisoka then augments and manipulates into far larger flames which can then be used to attack. Only one spark is actually needed, though more often than not a swing can can and does cause many. Once the fire has been created for the first time Hisoka will continue to use this without need to form more, as a result the main blade becomes incredibly hot and seems to glow with the heat. Interestingly it does not melt.
Due to the fact they are blades if these thin blades hit you during an attack they can and will cause far more damage than you'd expect. This though is uncommon as Hisoka more often uses the larger blade to attack, using the heat it absorbs to easily cut through whatever it strikes.
One of Onmei's main abilities in shikai is to absorb the natural atmospheric heat, and then use this to augment its abilities faster than if it is forced to use the heat its fire creates. Thus on a warm day Onmei is far more likely to reach its full capabilities much faster than on a cold day, this somewhat puts Hisoka off winter as his Zanpakuto seems to sulk for the entire season if it is allowed to become to cold.
Due to having just achieved his Shikai, Hisoka is still somewhat unsure in its capabilities, and it is also for this reason that he is presently unable to just form the fire right off the bat. As his skill and experience increases so too will Hisoka's control over his blade and the fire it can summon, in time it is all to likely that his ability to create fire without the need of other sources, the 'hair' or others, will dwindle as he learns to create it by drawing enough heat from around him even on the coldest of days.
In regards to its appearance in this form Unmei takes the form of a long pole with a blade upon it end, in length it is taller than Hisoka himself.The blade takes the form of a celtic sun with a central core circle missing from within its middle. The pole connects into one of the the prongs, though this is hidden by the thick mass of hair like blades that seem to come from the base of the main blade. This hair is of a deep scarlet color, whilst in contrast the blade is of black and silver. The pole itself seems to have the general appearence of a light wood of some form.
You know I can't change, I can't change
I can't change, I can't change
But I'm here in my mind
I am here in my mind
And I'm a million different people
from one day to the next
I can't change my mind
No, no, no, no, no

"My past? I can't say... I seem to have forgotten.."
Is is common for most soul reapers Hisoka has very little, if any at all, memory of his life whilst he was alive. This very rarely bothers him to much as it's not something he can change and i holds no influence on his present living as a soul reaper.
As a child he was born in the district of Junrinan, and it was indeed here that he grew up. As a child his life was relatively uneventful, though at this point it is worth noting that he was far more carefree, and indeed friendly individual than he is now. What caused the shift is something that occurred in a time after his graduation from the academy, yet before the time he was taken into the sixth squad in which he new serves.
With a somewhat cocky attitude he thought he was ready for the world, and so took a short trip, one he called training for shikai (which in a way it was) to avoid any thoughts he may be abandoning the soul society. In this time he so very foolishly wandered into the Kusajishi district thinking that with his training he'd be fine, very quickly it turned out that things would not be as simple as he may have at first hoped, and near as soon as he arrived in this hell hole he found himself in a world of danger that so very nearly cost him his life.
Upon the first night he arrived he settled himself down for the night, his still unnamed zanpakuto laying beside him for easy reach. Though upon his sharp awakening to find his blade to his neck it became clear that he'd made a terribly foolish mistake. In his slumber he'd left himself utterly unprotected and this had allowed a small group of bandits to creep up on him and take his own blade to him.
Reacting quickly he fired a somewhat weak Kido at the one with the blade to him this gave him enough time to get to his feet, though not enough to actually flee. Once the assailant he'd attacked had sorted himself out he once more took Hisoka's blade to it's owner, this time causing some serious damage in the form of a deep slash across his chest. One that even now has left a somewhat nasty looking scar across him.
Knowing well enough he couldn't fight with his blade taken from him he instead chose to run, though with his wound as bad as it were he knew well enough that he was not going to get far. Instead of continuing his flee he awkwardly made his way up onto a relatively high branch he sat waiting for the ones following him. Seeing them pass under the branch he carefully picked out the one who had his blade, and jumped down onto them in the vague hope of taking the man by surprise. Which by some luck he did.
Tackling the man to the ground he retrieved his stolen blade, hurting himself further as he did, he once more turned and fled, this time not doing as well as he previously had due to the prolonged bleeding. Receiving numerous more wounds as he did he kept running as it was all he could do to keep himself alive. Eventually, for reasons he's still unsure up, they gave up. Perhaps it was simply to much trouble for them to actually bother with him, or perhaps it was that he found himself in a district they did not wish to venture into, whatever it was they gave up... And once they did he simply collapsed.
Found by travellers he was dropped off at the home of an old woman, one who proceeded to treat his wounds whilst he lay unconscious. Whilst in this state his feverish mind was cut through by a deeply chilling female voice followed by the appearance of a glowing set of crimson piercing into him. Moments later he saw the form of a great black hulking dog looking down at him, on that opened its mouth and uttered its name to him. Calling it out he soon discovered that this was his blades name, and through all he'd been through and the training he'd done before hand his zanpakuto had rewarded him with its name.
Once healed he quickly returned to the soul society, holding many scares for being such a fool. Once there he was placed into the sixth squad, and made a very clear point not to discuss what had in fact happened to him whilst he'd been away. It is clear that during this time the effect of it all was incredibly negative, he became far more secluded and tended to push people away from himself. As well as this he developed a near chronic hate, perhaps even fear, of being touched by anyone. It's very likely this has spawned from the fact he was attacked and near killed with a part of his own soul, something that put him off trusting others since he feels that if he himself can be used against him it would unlikely take much for another to turn on him
