Tsubasa Tanimoto

Tsubasa Masahiko(翼雅彦,Lit. Wing Correct Prince ), is a perfect hybrid - being part Human, part Shinigami and part Hollow - who currently lives with him parents in the Human World.

Appearance
Tsubasa is 1.87 meter long (6.14’) and weights 68 kilograms (149.914 lb). He has light gray wavy hair that falls naturally along his face so it won’t hide any facial features. He has two big wisps of hair at the front of his haircut that reach up to his neck. The hair at the back of his haircut reaches just below his neck and ends in a v-like shape that curls outward.

Tsubasa has deep green eyes and a warm and comforting smile along with a slightly toned skin and a warm, rather low voice. He also has a couple of small ears; his ears are nearly hidden within his hair. Just under the middle of his face Tsubasa has a small pointy nose. He has no facial hair or tattoos; Tsubasa finds those things barbaric and unfitting for a refined gentleman like himself.

Tsubasa is slender person with thin arms and thin legs. He appears to be very fragile, easy to get hurt and weak, but that’s quite the opposite, he has enough strength to use a big and heavy Nodachi with great efficiency. His slender figure makes his Shinigami attire look a size to big, especially because Tsubasa’s attire has longer sleeves then the average Shinigami attire, his own personal touch to his uniform. Furthermore Tsubasa wears his zanpakuto on his back and it’s kept there thanks to the scarf-like cloth attached to the sheath of his zanpakuto, he wears the cloth over his left shoulder to his right hip.

Personality
Tsubasa is a young boy who shows no respect to anyone, not even a part of himself, like his zanpakuto. He likes to talk a lot and get to know people, looking for signs of mental weakness, which he can later use to anger, sadden or blackmail that opponent. He is quite a smooth talker, usually searching for the trust of his opponents, so later on he can later break it.

Even though he’s a rebel, he almost never curses, only when his inner hollow takes over. And he’s very adaptive, being able to quickly grasp a situation or mental condition and adept to it, this doesn't mean he can see trough every plan, he's just good in reacting to the situation. And even though he hates to do it, he’s able to act respectful to someone for a short period of time to gain information, although he has a particular habit. His habit is to reveal his intention to the person he was respectful toward, and shout everything he thought about that person after he got what he wanted to gain. This usually means he holds a long story about all the characteristics he didn’t like.

He also hates people who are really arrogant, especially arrogant people with a high position in an organization. When Tsubasa fights such an arrogant person, he snaps and becomes a crazy maniac, this is about the only time when Tsubasa doesn’t have a cigarette between his lips. ==History  == Tsubasa was born to a wealthy couple who created high budget movies, Sayuri the producer and her husband Masaru the director. Due to their hectic lifestyle and constant need to relocate to new places for weeks on end, Tsubasa didn't see much of him parents. He didn't mind, however, as these long absences not only let him do his own thing - playing video games and eating pizza, mostly - but also made the time they did spend together as a family all the more special. He was always one of the children at school who everyone liked, but never seemed to have many friends. In fact, he rarely ever seemed to be in the company of anyone other than his closest friend, Kaoru. The two of them were seemingly joined by the hip, skating everywhere and always laughing and joking at the silliest of things. The two of them had a knack for referencing video games all the time, something that greatly amused some and annoyed others. But if you were to ask Tsubasa or Kaoru if they cared, they would have only stuck their tongue at you and skated away.

All of that changed a year ago, however. During a typically normal day at school during autumn, there was a great earthquake. Or at least, that's what everyone else thought it was. Tsubasa saw many giant monsters with large white masks and long black cloaks, easily larger than skyscrapers, and what appeared to be humans wearing traditional hakamas. All of the humans were standing on the air itself and using what looked to be incredible magic, one woman even using what seemed like an incantation, while the large monsters were firing great energy beams from their mouths. One of the humans, who wore a white haori over his black hakama, was effortlessly tearing through the giant monsters. Tsubasa could only watch in awe, unaware that a large number of much small monsters were charging straight for him as if he were some fragrant meat ready for consumption. The man with the white haori turned and stared at Tsubasa before shouting "RUN!" to him. Even though he was a mile away, at least, Tsubasa could still hear him clearly. When he saw the smaller monsters, he skated away as fast as she could. When he realised he had left Kaoru on her own, he considered stopping before noticing that all the monsters were seemingly only interested in him. Before long, Tsubasa got himself stuck in a dead end.

Scared out of him wits, he held his hands out in defense as he recited the same incantation he had overheard earlier - ''"Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south!" - ''and was surprised when an palm-sized ball of red energy shot forward and blasted many of the monsters away. As he jumped up and down and shouted "Yatta!", he noticed that one of the humans he saw earlier was only a few feet away and had killed the knocked away Hollows before they could get up once more. Clearly, he more surprised than Tsubasa had been about the red energy ball. Almost instantly, the rest of the strangely dressed humans surrounded Tsubasa and began interrogating him. The man with the white haori appeared, however, and silenced them all before asking Tsubasa his name and what happened. After he explained himself, the man introduced himself simply as "Captain" and mused that humans often gained unique powers by being near powerful reiatsu. He said he had never seen a human gain the power of a Shinigami before, not like this, but that he also feels something else inside of him. The Captain then said he would take him to Soul Society, to have him checked over. Tsubasa was a bit worried at the prospect, but his curiosity got the better of him.

During him time in Seireitei, as these "Shinigami" called it, Tsubasa learned a great many things. He learned that Shinigami were protectors of the balance between the living and the dead and that their primary role is to protect humans from Hollows, which were the monsters Tsubasa had previously fought. Tsubasa was told that, for some reason, he could use Kido and that the Kido Corps would teach him a great many Kido over time, so that she could better protect himself. A few weeks later, he was also told that he was unique beyond comprehension. According to the results, Tsubasa was actually a hybrid of Human, Shinigami and Hollow. Although Tsubasa would never hear of it, the Council of Captains had debated for days on end concerning whether or not such a mysterious and unique being should be allowed to live. The ruling was in him favour in the end, however, and he was allowed to continue with his normal life while extensive research and tests would be performed to find out how or why a perfect hybrid even exists. He was warned that Hollows may be attracted to his unique reiatsu, but that there were plenty of Shinigami patrolling the Human World so he'd ultimately be fine. Over the following year, Tsubasa proved to be an excellent user of all types of Shinigami combat, impressing a great many Shinigami while bringing resentment to many others.

A few days ago, a Hollow appeared at Tsubasa's school and tried to attack him. Unwittingly, Kaoru got in the way and was near-fatally wounded. After taunting from the Hollow, Tsubasa found himself unable to control his anger and he instinctively loosed a great Cero that not only disintegrated the Hollow, but left a large hole in the school building behind. When Kaoru ran to see if he was okay, she saw that half the the sclera of Tsubasa's right eye was pitch black. Upon nervously mentioning this to her, Tsubasa merely covered his eye and ran away and silence. Shinigami from the Thirteenth Division quickly arrived on the scene to erase the memories of those who saw what happened, leaving the humans to believe it was simply an earthquake. After being informed by the Shinigami Research and Development Institute of him Hollow powers and the dangers of using them too much, Tsubasa decided that, as Halloween was coming up, now would be the time to tell Kaoru the truth he had kept from her for the last year. If him best friend was going to be in danger from Tsubasa himself, the least he could do was tell her. Even though he knows what he is and understands the implications of his unique nature, and even though it scares him more than he can bear, Tsubasa refuses to show people how it affects him. Whether this is because of some form of pride, or because he simply wants to prove to himself that he can look after himself, is unknown.
