Roy Grimshaw

Roy Grimshaw (ロイグリムショウ, Roi Gurimushou) is an arrancar in Muerte's army. He holds the rank of décima (10th) Espada, replacing Muerte Guerrero after his ascension. He is the new leader of the Privaron Espada.

Appearance
Roy is a slender, yet fairly muscular, male Arrancar of average height, he has pale skin and short, straight hair that is brick-red. Roy's eyes are light turquoise. The pupils of his eyes are mostly invisible. Roy has no eyebrows either. He has two very notable traits in his outward appearance: firstly, he has black eye rings, having them since his rebirth as an arrancar. Secondly, he has created the kanji "love" (愛) on the left side of his forehead, his forelocks are parted from the left side, making the kanji more visible. Roy is often seen to stand straight, with his arms crossed over his chest. He wears typical Arrancar clothes: a white jacket, black sash, and a white hakama. However he seems to have keep his jacket open, leaving a muscular chest revealed. The remains of his Hollow mask consist of a half jawbone at the left side of his face, and his Hollow hole located on the base of his throat.

Personality
Roy is emotionally withdrawn, all but silent, and consumed with a bitter loathing for everyone but himself. He learned to find pleasure, and eventually a reason to live, in annihilating the numerous opponents that wanted to kill him – and, by extension, anyone who threatened his existence. He came to the conclusion that he could preserve and confirm his own existence by killing any and all who challenged it, securing an extreme form of existentialism as his key personality trait. He is ruthless against his opponents and is fully capable of committing truly abhorrent and inhumane actions without feeling any shred of remorse or hesitation. The only person he seems to hold in high regard is Muerte Guerrero, this is due to the fact that he was the only one who acknowkedged his existence and gave him power and a reason to live by turnig him into an arancar, and making him the 10th espada. He is quite loyal and obedient to Muerte, fulfilling all of his orders without question. Underneath his cold and dispassionate personality he tries to understand the human emotions and his true reason for living is the desired to be liked, loved, and acknowledged as an individual, a trait which is unique for an arrancar. Insense he is an arrancar who has lived his entire existence all alone until meeting Muerte.

History
Before he became an arrancar he was an Adjuchas-class Menos. During this time he would be constantly be attacked by hollow, who were either trying to eat him or trying to gain his ability. For many years he fought against the numerous hollws that came after and his powers began to grow, he became jealous of how the weak are allowed to come together and wanted to become weak so that he could find comrads and if that were not possible, he wanted to find someone as strong as him. Roy was all alone when he was first found by Muerte, who asked him if he had killed all the mountains of Hollows in the area. Roy tells him yes, and that they all needed to just died. This impresses Muerte, who tells Roy that he seems strong, and he then tells him that he is looking for allies. Roy responds by saying that so is he, and asks Muerte if his allies are strong. Muerte tells him to come along and find out for himself. Roy agrees to join him, noting that Muerte is someone who has acknowledged his exsistence and his power and it looks like that he can stay with him without dying. After Muerte's ascension as the Primera Espada, Roy was given the rank of 10th Espada to replace him, which he gladly accepted.
