Misaki Kuchiki

Misaki Kuchiki (朽木 ミサキ, Kuchiki Misaki) is the current Captain of the 9th Division of the Gotei 13. He is also the editor-in-chief of the Seireitei Communication.

Appearance
Misaki Kuchiki is an adult man. He is taller than most Kuchiki caln members. He's got purple hair and keen purple eyes. He wears his hair in a ponytail. He is seen wearing the traditional Captain outfit. On his neck, he wears the Kuchiki clan heirloom, the scarf that is made from the silver-white, windflower light silk (ginpaku kazahana no uzuginu). It's handed down from generation to generation and is given to each head of the Kuchiki family. He carries his Zanpakutō on his right hip.

In the Human World, he wears dark-colored clothes, which includes a black cap, a black coat, white gloves, dark-colored pants, and dark-colored boots.

Personality
Misaki is usually a straightfoward person, using very direct words to express himself. This trait of his comes, most of the times, to be a rude appeal to others.

As a member of one of the Four Noble Houses and one of the richest clans, as well as the 32nd Head of it, he acts in a very noble and aristocratic manner — he seems always serene and apathetic towards other people, even when he is actually deeply conflicted. Even during battle, he shows a level of neglect of emotions, as well as a lethargic approach to sittuations in life. He keeps an expressionless face in almost every situation, as shown when he suffered from several wounds, but he kept his composure and though rationally throughout the whole fight.

He has a deep grudge towards En'nosuke and his side of the family because of the discrimination made inside the clan.

His favorite hobby is to watch the plum trees blossom and to write articles for the Seireitei Communication, also due to his fantastic calligraphy.

History
Despite his position in the Kuchiki clan, he always sought to rise on his family. He is the son of En'nosuke Kuchiki's brother and, at the time, the main candidate to Kuchiki clan's main head. Even though the Kuchiki clan was a rich one, not every member had the same privileges. Such a big clan had to be divided into branches. Unfortunately, Misaki's family ended up on the secondary branch. He and his familu always revealed themself as a great asset to the clan, even more that En'nosuke's side. This hatred between both sides grew larger inside Misaki, that never believed that such discrimination could be thought of.

After his father's death, Misaki dedicated his life to gain a spot as the Captain of the 6th Division. Unluckily, his cousin sustained more influence and power throughout Soul Society. These supports made En'nosuke gain a place in the Gotei 13, as the Captain of the 6th Division.

Fortunately, not all was bad nor lost for him; En'nosuke's father, Kijiro, believed that Misaki had more potencial than En'nosuke to hold a place as a Captain. Even though he did not take the place as the 6th Division's Captain, he was promoted to the 9th Division's Captain, at a relatively young age.

Quotes
(To En'nosuke Kuchiki, about Giriko Kuchiki) "You foolish brother! To put your faith onto someone that lets itself be caught by the enemy... that is pityful! I however, seek power, power that will allow me not to suffer from the same! It's our dead brother's fault. Who told him to concieve such weak child?! Who told him to trust a miserable life?!"
