Nobunaga Hyougaki (信長冰河期, Nobunaga hyōga-ki) is an Shimigami and member of the Hyougaki Shop. He serves as the man at the front due to his kind personality and willingness to help others. He holds a place amongst the Gotei 13 as formerly one of the most dangerous killers of all time as the "Reddoenjeru" which translates into the "Red Angel". He now left the Soul Society and went to his uncles shop within the King City working as a shopkeeper.
Appearance[]
Of small, slender build and with a youthful, feminine visage, Nobunaga cuts quite a different figure than would be expected of the legendary nickname. He dresses simply, wearing a plain men's kimono of cheap, worn cloth with a white umanori hakama, zori and white tabi. He wears a dark blue kimono with a long purple or light-blue, with his sword normally at his side. His long red hair was how he got his nickname since it was the very last thing most enemies saw before there deaths.
His hair is most of the time is tied into a pony-tail however sometimes he lets the back of his hair down during times of great stress or simply of a lack of care. Unlike his sister his blood seems to react differently as his eyes revert from an warm haze colored look to a bright yellow color instead during his hollow mode. He has mid-back length red hair tied in a thick ponytail and a cross-shaped sword scar on his left cheek.
The scar actually consists of two separate scars - a long one running diagonally down his face from just below the outer corner of his left eye to just above his chin and a slightly shorter scar running diagonally across it in the other direction from just to the left of the bridge of his nose to his left jawbone, this is due to his face from his years battling other Shinigami, Quincy and hollows alike.
Personality[]
Nobunaga has two sides to him: His Happy positive half and his Dark Personality influenced by is hollow. His more kinder half is very soft-spoken, serene and humble, Nobunaga's usual demeanor suits him for giving such a happy and positive feeling. Always willing to put others before himself, both in terms of well-being and social standing however not when it comes to the shop.
He carries himself with an air of amicable temperance, politely conversing with the people he encounters and freely giving his meager services to those who need a hand. He at time of need doesn't hesitate to protect his sisters at all cost since they are dear to him.
When he triggers his dark half, he immediately abandons his serene humility, reverting from an once warm nature becomes cold and distant, allowing him to contemplate taking the life of his opponent and even make vicious, bloodthirsty threats. This side of his personality is one that he struggles to suppress simply revert to his killer personification triggered by the hollow.
This "Dark" side known as one of the legendary killer who willingly filled many graves with his blade alone to protect his family. He has displayed an intense hatred for towards hollows for killing his wife, however has shown a deep loyalty to Soul Society and the Gotei 13 despite what happened since he simply don't blame them for the rouge Shimigamis killing his Ex-Wife. Also he has a high-degree of loyalty to his sister and family members willing to protect them even with his life.

He was later transferred over to serve in both Second Division and Onmitsukidō, to serve to help with execution or assassination of rebellious shimigamis and hollows which the captain-commander decrees as problems.
For his skills in battle he was requested by the captain-commander to secretly kill various enemies of the Gotei 13 to prove his effectiveness. During those tasks he killed verious forms of enemies including hollows, Quincy, Rouge Soul Reaper and some souls who wanted to set off bombs to kill many other people in the Rukongai.
During his time in the Soul Society, he fell in love with a woman name Tsura Kuchiki, an woman who had a good role in the Kuchiki clan until one fateful night, which both taken her away from him and made him leave the Gotei 13.
It started like an normal night however a fire went on during the noble houses from a group of hollows during the battle one of the fire ball blasted from there mouth destroying the old Kuchiki clan house. Tsura saved as many people as she could however the burning building however the blast itself exploded with her mortally wound bleeding on the ground.

This includes taking a mortal wound in the chest and still being able to battle through it with little problem.
Legendary Grand-master Swordmaster: Nobunaga is a master of swordsmanship, possessing flawless precision and performing lethal attacks with little effort. It's one of Nobunaga's most dangerous weapon of all-time which he links together his "Shunpo" with his Zanjustu stances including the art of Battōjutsu to preform unbelievably quick sword-style that requires great speed and skill at once. During his time as as Third Division Vice-Captain he was tasked with removing threats that would effect the balance of power in the Gotei 13, which he was regarded as a demon made flesh as he parried an incoming Zanpakutō, assault with using merely the bottom of hilt and effortlessly killed incoming rebellious soul reapers, who'd were plotting to over throw the captain-commander. His former Squad 10 sister, Neige Hyougaki commented that in a real fight outside of sparing he would of killed her 15 seconds into the battle.

Flash Blade Technique[]
- Kaze Buringā (風名, Wind Bringer): By using his speed through his Shunpo during his quickdraw of his sword slashing at the air, Nobunaga can release multiple blades of wind which cut enemies from a distance and then explode causing devastating damage. He can do it without sheathe his blade however the impact won't be as devastating then using his sheathe.
- Sōryūsen (双龍閃, Twin Dragon Flash): This attack is most often used as a counterattack against a thrust or charge, with one sidesteps a forward-moving opponent and moves past them. In doing so, one spins in a complete full circle, using the momentum and centrifugal force to the speed and strength of the sword swing, which is then aimed at either the opponent's skull or the back of the neck for decapitation or damaged to the head.
- Kageburēdo (影剣, Shadow Blade): When the user goes for a away stance when swing he can focus his Reiryoku through the blade it admits a light that forms an Illusions create blades of light separate from his Zanpakutō, using them as projectiles to fire at his enemies.

Nobunaga only uses his Bankai as a last resort simply due to the fact he knows how dangerous it and not use it unless if he facing an extremely overwhelming enemy, battling in an area where no-one outside the fight would get hurt or willing to sacrifice those to protect his family.
