Kagaseo


 * "A dark force that existed before the universe, reigning alone in absolute darkness and control." - Seireitou-shishō

Kagaseo (化我瀬背負, Kagaseo; literally "Betrayer of the Ego") is the manifestation of the singular force of Primordial Darkness that had existed long before the creation of the Soul Society and all of existence in its entirety. It is said to have been a force of pure dominance that ruled in solitary darkness before its reign had been brought to an end by the movements of the Taikyōkū and the Mūgyoku, resulting in its "supposed destruction". While it appears to not have any specific gender, it is commonly referred to as a "him". He is renowned as the Tokoyami no Sumeragi (常闇ノ皇, "Emperor of Everlasting Darkness") by the L'Obscurité, whom of which are all subsequently awaiting his return, somehow factoring into the plans of Kurama Kawahiru.
