Satoru Kyōfu (恐怖悟, "Dread of Enlightment") is a Shinigami and the Lieutenant of the Twelfth Division of Gotei 13. He serves under Captain Jaromira Dragan.
Appearance[]
Satoru is a very tall, well-built man. He has relatively short, unkempt spiky hair of jet black colour. Since he constantly wears a mask and a pair of goggles when in public, his facial features are unknown to most of his colleagues.
He wears a sleeveless Shinigami Shihakushō draped in a navy blue, hooded cape. Instead of waraji, he dons a pair of combat boots. Additionally, his hands are always wrapped in worn-down bandages.
Personality[]
Grim and taciturn, Satoru is far from being a sociable person. Most of the time he tends to avoid company, and once he finds himself amongst a group of colleagues he usually stays silent and does not contribute to the conversation on his own volition. However, if addressed directly, he responds in almost normal manner, though he refuses to speak about himself. Furthermore, he stays serious and solemn almost at all times. Consequently, due to the carefree attitude of his Captain, Jaromira Dragan, he often finds himself in the middle of comedic situations whilst maintaining virtually unperturbed composure.
Because he was considered an "average warrior, but brilliant thinker" by his instructors, he had been continuously encouraged to join the Twelfth Division since his early Academy years. Although, he insisted on joining the combat-oriented Eleventh Division due to his desire to become stronger, a decision which initially caused him a considerable amount of frustration. Unable to keep up with many of his peers, he had been mocked repeatedly until ultimately transferring to the Twelfth Division. Nevertheless, he remains nearly obssessed with developing his combat prowess, and as such he spends most of his free time training his Zankensoki skills.
When he enters combat, however, his personality undergoes a significant shift. Whereas his general attitude remains almost unchanged, he often becomes surprisingly talkative and aggressive, mocking and intimidating his opponents continuously.

Powers and Abilities[]
|
Expert Swordsman: Kyōfu's primary focus whilst honing his skills, he is a force to be reckoned with when fighting with his nodachi Zanpakutō due to his remarkable proficiency in Kendō. Hakuda Expert: He has a habit of employing unarmed combat maneouvres during confrontations, often supplementing his sword-fighting skills with abrupt kicks, throws, sallies and elbow strikes. Shunpo Expert: Furthermore, Kyōfu is surprisingly fast and agile considering his imposing physique. He is quick enough to keep up with average Captains in terms of speed, and nimble sufficiently to simply evade normal attacks. Kidō Expert: Due to the versality of Kidō, Satoru has practiced the art intensely in order to be able to effectively utilise mid-level spells without incantations. As such, he may use them to supplement his other combat skills in the thick of battle. | |

Enhanced Strength: As a result of intense training coupled with his naturally imposing stature, he is substantially stronger than an average Shinigami. High Intellect: A man of undeniable intelligence, he is an active member of his Division's research team. Despite not being an inventor, Kyōfu is more than competent enough to work efficiently once given proper instructions. Furthermore, his brilliance allows him to react accordingly to unexpected turns of events during combat. High Spiritual Power: As a Lieutenant of Gotei 13, Satoru boasts a high amount of spiritual energy. When exerted, it emanates in the form of a cold mist which instils a sense of vague anxiety in the nearby individuals. Its colour is amethyst. | |
|
Akigakuru (飽きが来る, Pall): Whilst in its sealed form, it is a nodachi with a tsuba in the shape of a concave octagon with downward-curved tips. There is a short chain attached to the pommel of the black hilt.

Trivia[]
- Satoru is a sort-of good counterpart to Zetsubō Usuguraiboshi.
- His battle theme is Berserk - Fear.
- In Japanese, he would refer to himself with 某 (soregashi) pronoun, which is an archaic word indicating self-deprecation and modesty. This stands in stark contrast with his normally harsh, serious attitude.
