Ira (LordGalvatron)

Ira (Spanish for Wrath) was a and a general of the Legión de la Oscuridad, serving under Tinieblas.

Appearance
Ira is a humanoid Hollow with some reptilian traits. Muscular and stout, he has scarlet skin covered with scutes and a long, thick tail. His face bears some resemblance to a crocodile's maw.

Personality
His most prominent traits are his short-tempered nature, brutality and ferocity. He considers the Captains' appearance in an unpardonable intrusion, and is infuriated when his opponent does not fight him with all of their strength. Over time, his fury may aggravate so much he becomes virtually speechless.

Plot
Ira, along with his six "siblings", has been personally chosen by Tinieblas as one of the candidates to become Vasto Lorde. He has been trained and nurtured together with the others, and eventually has achieved the pinnacle of natural Hollow evolution.

During the Shinigami mission to Hueco Mundo, Ira is the first Vasto Lorde encountered by the squad of Captains. His considerable spiritual power is acknowledged by Kenpachi Kuufuku, who proceeds to attack him only to be quickly deflected. Irritated at his comrade's carefree approach, Ikiryō Kuragari interfers and engages the Hollow.

Ira withstands Kuragari's assault until the latter rapidly disengages him and instructs Kenpachi about a way to fight the Vasto Lorde. Then, Kuufuku manages to cut off Ira's arm in an instant, though the limb regenerates in a matter of moments. Subsequently, the Hollow declares the fight is finally going to become serious.

As Kenpachi continues to fight him with only Shikai, Ira's rage is growing gradually together with his power. Kuragari warns Kuufuku about this and tells him about the Vasto Lorde's weakness before departing. Soon afterward Ira snaps and unleashes a tempest of Reiatsu, prompting his opponent to eventually release Bankai.

The two fight ferociously for a time and exchange numerous heavy blows. However, Kenpachi gains the upper hand. Ira attempts to turn the tables by putting even more power into his attacks, but fails to outmatch the Eleventh Division Captain. In the end, he is killed by the same technique which has nullified his last-ditch attack seconds earlier.

Powers and Abilities
Wrath: This special ability gradually unlocks more power the more Ira is infuriated. Initially paralleling the strength of a Captain with released Zanpakutō, he eventually forces a Bankai and prompts Kenpachi Kuufuku to "go all out", even if for a split second.

Great Strength: One of the Vasto Lorde's primary attributes, his physical strength is great enough to send a muscular Captain flying and cause him to spit blood in the aftermath. His punches frequently carry force sufficient to shake the ground upon hit.





Cero Sobrecargada (過充電し, Japanese for "Overcharged Hollow Flash", Spanish for "Overcharged Zero"): Ira utilises a modified version of the standard. Fired from his mouth, it takes more time to charge, but possesses substantially higher destructive power.

Normally moderate, it increases significantly during combat. It has a dark red tint.
