Tenjirō Kirinji (Seireitou)

Tenjirō Kirinji (麒麟寺 天示郎, Kirinji Tenjirou) is a member of the Royal Guard, holding the title "Hot Spring Demon" (泉湯鬼, Sentōki).

Appearance
Kirinji is a lean-built and very tall man with black hair arranged into an outlandishly large pompadour, or "regent" hairstyle, with tapered sideburns. He is frequently seen chewing upon a small stick. Instead of the standard Shinigami uniform, he wears a waist-length white jacket that leaves most of his chest exposed but still bears the Royal Guard emblem on its back, as well as the alternating circle and diamond pattern of a captain's haori along the bottom. His attire is completed by a black hakama, a large yellow sash around his waist and a pair of sandals.

Personality
He speaks of the Gotei 13 as if they are no more than children and is at times condescending to many of his fellow Shinigami, even Captains. This patronizing attitude frequently results in him being disciplined by the rest of the Royal Guard, usually through physical force, with a strike to the head.

History
Before joining the Royal Guard, Kirinji was a Shinigami Captain in Soul Society. At some time in the past, he taught healing techniques to Retsu Unohana.

Zanpakutō
The name and appearance of Kirinji's Zanpakutō is unknown.
