Amatsu Kusari [Vizard]

Name: Amatsu Kusari

Age: 2172

Visual Age: Early thirties

Gender: Male

Ex-divisions:8th and 1st

Personality: His old personality that disappeared once have now reared its beautiful face: A sense of justice, sometimes perverted, and even open to others and forgiving. Now in battle or to those he's vengeful against, he's cold and unwilling to open up to anyone. Even in battle, he will not give out his name or even speak to his opponent. The only time you would hear him speak is when he releases his zanpaktou.

In all seriousness, he is anti-social. It doesn't mean that he won't interact with others if he considers them a conrade or acquaintance. He won't hesistate to strike if he feels a strong sense of betrayal..even if the enemy were to switch sides, he will strike them down without mercy.


Appearance: He stands at least 6'0. His eye color would be a dark brown, his hair jet black. He also dones a necklace around the neck and collar bone that resembles the bottom jaw of a canine creature. As for his clothes, they resemble something like the ex-kido chief's haori/shinigami clothing. Some parts of it torn, charred, and having jagged edges around the sleeves and tail of his outfit.


History/Background: History: Life as a human

As a human, there isn't much to say. He had a regular life..had an ok paying job, no kids (or so he thought), had a sweet girl by his side, the good life actually. But then..that was it. He couldn't remember anything..except slipping into a coma..then bump..his heart stopped beating. His death was so mysterious, he never stopped dreaming about the day he died.

Life as a shinigami:Hyroku And Amatsu

As a shinigami, he was first known as Hyroku. Not many known him, but to those that did knew that he was strong, perverted, and sometimes moody. He did have a lot of things going on..but other than that he was known for fighting alot whether it be verbally or physically. He found sick pleasure in this thought because it took his mind off the pain that went on in him inside that he never told except a select few. Until one faithful day..during his battle with the arrancar, he reached his limit..pushing himself too far in a battle he knew he couldn't win and died.

As Amatsu, Hyroku was reincarnated. It was later discovered after he was promoted to Grand Kido Chief that Hyroku was being manifested inside of him. This wasn't a bad thing, but brought back some bad memories which influenced several of his deciscions. He had switched sides when he thought that Central 46 was becoming rotten and decided later on to invade Soul Society. An Omen..or something wickedly disturbing occured within him and it wasn't Hyroku. Because Hyroku's spirit didn't go away completely, Amatsu's Soul chain wasn't his own and was unstably connected and was infected by a dark reiatsu. Once he died of a mysterious cause during the madness of the invasion, this dark reiatsu manifested itself in Hueco Mundo..and into chimera shapped hollow..the combination between a snake, scorpion, and dragon.

Life as a hollow and transition into an arrancar

After being a hollow, his mind flashed with so many horrific flash backs. He couldn't believe what happened..but then realized it wasn't completely his fault. He regretted killing Ichiro..the son of Kae and Ichiruki because of what he THOUGHT was right. The hollow cried..but nontheless moved on.He retained his knowledge from his life before becoming a hollow and even his reason. And so with that, it benefitted greatly and lived on as a hollow, quickly adapting into their cannabalistic ways and ate other hollow.

In the forest of menos, he tackled into a bunch of hollows and they piled up ontop of each other, forming a Menos Grande. And because Amatsu retained reason, he was the one in control..and became the great hollow itself with a unique mask. It was actually tinted in a sky blue with more than one socket for the eyes to peer through, long and slinted. It repeated the same process..eating...and eating. He was disguisted with himself, but that soon changed along with his body and hollow class into an adjuchas. It was a chimera, but this time more evolved..most of its body was that of a scorpion, but the head of a dragon..and had three tails:That of a scorpion, a dragon, and one that's actually a snake.


He gained the ability and the inteligence to transform into either one of these creatures..he grinned and opened up a hole to the world of the living. He flew at such high speeds as a dragon, swallowing up souls and humans as if his life depended on it. He crushed and devoured so many humans as a large scorpion, and snuck up on shinigamis and even more Pluses and hollows as a snake in complete stealth. He was so greedy and hungry for more souls..it drove him insane. Upon fighting another Adjuchas of much more power, he was almost on the brink of death again..but this one lacked inteligence.

Upon turning into a snake, it camoflauged into the background, slithering quickly as it could and tackled while simutaneously biting the neck of the adjuchas..it was over. Then Amatsu reverted to his original form, blazing with reiatsu while firing a proud cero towards the endless night sky of Hueco Mundo in the White Desert..he changed shape, looking a bit more humanoid. Bone cracking and reshaping..he was so fueled by the souls he consumed, he evolved into a Vasto Lorde.

He along with another few Vasto Lorde resided in the depths of the Forest of Menos. He didn't know what was the point of living anymore..was it for destruction? Fighting until he was satisfied? Hyroku was like this once..but he knew when to stop. He had a headache..he clenched his boney hand over his mask so hard that it cracked. Some of the mask went through his skin..and then that's when he pulled it off, ultimately transforming into an arrancar of such strength.

He resembled the cross of Hyroku and Amatsu, but with a more..malevolent appearance. He decided..that he wasn't those two anymore. He was something..more evil. He moved on..he named himself..Celeste Cadena (Spanish lit. Heavenly Chain) . But like all hollows, they are purified and sent to Rukongai. If lucky, they become a shinigami..and this fate was bestowed upon Celeste that has now reverted to Amatsu once again. This was his last chance.

If he were to die in the Gotei 13, then he knew that it would all be over..that is IF they allowed him to be in the Gotei 13. Of course, he tried to apply into the empty ranks of the new Gotei 13, hopefully trying to turn his life around and protect something that he once destroyed in his past life..karma can be a pain...especially since that cycle repeated itself..but stopping as a shinigami/hollow hybrid..Years had passed ever since Amatsu Kusari was seen. He was once known as the captain of Eigth division and then, became the head of the Gotei 13 as the captain-commander of the militia that was of the soul world. However, concluding a few events from Hueco Mundo, he was heavily wounded but nonetheless, made it out alive with his soul chain barely attached. Because he was in hueco mundo, his soul chain was about to break and corrode before he was able to recooperate while developing a hollow within himself. Whenever he closed his eyes, he would hear a horrific voice that sent chills down his spine and even made his zanpaktou cold.

With his old zanpaktou, Teikoku Sasori, discarded and buried for a more practical use in the future and for other reasons, he has revived his original zanpaktou..his true zanpaktou.This decision was driven by the appearance of his inner hollow. His zanpaktou at the time was so dangerous, that even an evolved release beyond bankai was obtained. While the name of this ultimate release is of little importance, it was still considered dangerous. Now with the use of his own zanpaktou in hand, he sets off on his own adventure and abandoned soul society so that he wouldn't become such a threat to his own kind..and possibly his family, in which he considered the Gotei 13 to be.

Perhaps is the oppertunity presented itself, he would help them..but he was strictly neutral. His inner hollow often went out of control..unlike the rest of the vizard he had encountered in his life time, he would think that being a former captain would make it easier..but he was wrong.
