Affiliation: Gotei 13
Squad: 5
Rank: Lieutenant
Family: Setsuko clan, they are a well known family in the Seireitei but they hold little to no power.
Personality: Rin is a very headstrong person, and when he puts his mind to something he makes sure it gets done as fast and as efficiently as possible. Being the head of the Setsuko family he acts in an aristocratic manner. He always seems serene and apathetic towards other people, even those who have treated him as an absolute enemy. He is notably calm, even in battle. He faces all challengers as if they are far better than himself, and as so he will go all out against every single opponent he faces. He might not just release his Bankai right off the bat, but he will however engage his opponent strategically. Rin very rarely gets angry, enraged or desperate in any situation. Also he shows no sign of panic or distress in any situation, meaning his opponent will never know when they have gotten him in a situation he cannot handle.
Despite this he is laid back when nothing is going wrong, and even enjoys an occasional drink. When drunk he is seen as more 'down to Earth person' so to speak. Though he does not get drunk often, he still has his moments. He enjoys the company of females, but does not let them distract him from his duties or his fights. When a large event unfolds he tends to make a late appearance to the scene, he never really gets involved preferring to stay on the sidelines. Rin has a sense of honor, he lets most of his opponents reach their maximum potential before defeating them. Also he refuses to attack an unarmed, already severely injured, or unready opponent. With this being said he will however use his skills to attack an opponents blind spots and weaknesses to win.
Previous to his promotion to Lieutenant and head of his family, he was an alcoholic. He was laid back in most cases but was outgoing and the life of the party, also he was a very ferocious fighter. He took every advantage he could and would kill anyone who called him their enemy. Before reaching Lieutenant he was a dedicated student learning everything he possibly could as fast as he possibly could.
Likes: Females, his Zanpakuto, his Captain, and helping in any way he can
Dislikes: Boring days, Enemies, and fighting for no or stupid reasons

Biography:
Rin was stillborn, meaning he was born dead. He was born in the West Rukongai District 3 Hokutan (北端, lit. "North End" wink . He was taken in by the royal family known as the Setsuko family. Tho they are a more unknown family out of the royal families they have decided to dedicate themselves to helping the soul society and it's civilians with donations to the poor districts and giving food to those who are without. Rin was entered into the academy at a very young age, it took him awhile to reach the skill level of the others in the academy. And it took him even longer to get used to using reiatsu in any way. After learning the basics and passing through part of the academy in two years he became top of his class, he impressed everyone for his age he was very dangerous in combat. He excelled in archery and long ranged weaponry, but he was very good at close ranges as well. He had a very select group of friends in the academy, and became very close to a kid 3 years older than him named Kairu. They were never seen apart from each other, and used each other to get better in aspects they were not so good in. Kairu being close ranged taught Rin everything he needed to know and Rin long ranged taught Kairu. They became very dangerous as a team, and in every team exercise they were always on a team. They both graduated and entered in the 3rd squad, after the captain came by and picked them both out of the group to join his squad.
Rin later was offered the position of 5th squad Lieutenant, he accepted and started his training for Bankai immediately. Kairu was promoted to 3rd seat in the 3rd division, he was sent to the living world with a task force do to some phenomenons that could only be caused by hollows of a significant level. Kairu got there and it seemed like nothing was going on out of the ordinary, but something felt wrong, soon after the eerie feeling he had the task force was ambushed. Led by an Arrancar, the hollows took out many of the low leveled shinigami with little to no effort, Kairu told one of the soldiers to send a request for backup to the Captain, which the soldier did. Kairu died shortly after the message was received by his Captain, unable to go out himself he sent the request to the Captain Commander. Rin returned from his training as the message was passed on, over hearing the request Rin demanded he be sent to help. Rin was given the mission, he took off immediately without gathering a team, considering his best friend was in trouble he had not thought about gathering a team.
Rin made it to the living world were he found Kairu's body, this was the first time he truly felt rage and anger, it turned on a side to him that even he had no clue was there. Seeing the Arrancar, he knew then who was responsible for his friends death. He took no time to talk, he immediately released his Bankai for the first time in battle. Despite the Arrancar being powerful he did not stand a chance against Rin. Rin killed the Arrancar and took its body back to the Gotei 13 with him, he also took a few trips and gathered all the bodies of his fallen comrades and returned them to the Gotei as well.
Rin now resides as the lieutenant of the 5th division and has returned to his old self, knowing Kairu wouldn't like seeing him the way he was before. Rin does everything he can to help anywhere that needs it. He has not yet been in another fight, and does not look forward to fighting either. He takes his position and its duties seriously, he is normally found either in the squad 5 barracks, a peaceful spot with little to no interruptions or where there is females present. Either way he is normally open to help anyone at anytime with anything.
_____________[│║║█║▌][¢ σ м в α т - ∂ α т α]
Zanpakuto Name: Yamato
Sealed Description: Yamato's sealed appearance
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance: The dragon in the background
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: Yamato is a very ferocious spirit, most of the time preferring to insult Rin rather than helping. Despite this the two have a brotherly type bond, and in desperate times they are always there for each other. Yamato wants Rin to release his inner hatred when he fights knowing that he is extremely powerful and his sense of honor is only holding him back.
Inner World: A castle that is enormous
Shikai Status: Achieved
Release Command: "Come what may, all bad fortune is to be conquered by endurance. Endure the present, and watch for better things, Yamato."
Shikai Released Appearance: Same as sealed but now a blue reiatsu flows around the hair, hands, and feet of Rin, it resembles blue fire.
Shikai Abilities:
• Blades of the Fallen
He can now send blades of reiatsu from his sword just by unsheathing it quickly and re-sheathing it in one fluid movement, he can do this multiple times with such speed most can't even see his hand move, they will only see him re-sheathe his sword for a final time. As he sheathes his sword for the last time multiple blades will shoot towards the opponent if one hits all the rest that follow will hit, they have killing potential but normally they can't be aimed to effect a certain body part or organ this is why he creates more than one to increase his chances of hitting his desired target.
• Swords of the Protector
Rin has now gained an ability to create swords from his reiatsu, they take a physical form and can be launched at an opponent. These swords can also surround Rin to make a durable shield each sword can absorb one hit from a shikai or lower release. He can only create six at a time, although he can only create six he can send them anywhere within a 200 yard radius of his current position. They travel in nearly an instant, but as they stop it takes a second for the desired attack to continue. He can vary the size of the swords from a toothpick all the way to a normal adult males size, despite this they move at the same speed as they did in their original size. If the opponent gets hit by one of these swords and does not remove it in time, Rin can do one of two things he can instantly teleport himself to the sword or instantly teleport his opponent to him.
• Doppelganger
Rin will stab his sword into the ground and release his reiatsu, the reiatsu will form into a Doppelganger. This Doppelganger looks like a see through version of himself, but do not let it fool you it can still make physical contact. This Doppelganger can use any technique available to Rin at the current release, this is to essentially fight two opponents at once. This Doppelganger is much more durable than an after image from a shunpo technique, for it can take a beating before it shifts back to normal reiatsu and returns to Rin. Aside from all that the Doppelganger can stay in a physical form until it is destroyed, also it can travel far distances away from the actual Rin making it possible for him to be in two places at once. Anything the Doppelganger seen or learned is telepathically sent to Rin, meaning any opponent it faces Rin will know the techniques and abilities of the foe. This technique can only be used twice per battle, and while one Doppelganger is out another cannot be used, in shikai.
Bankai Status: Achieved
Bankai Description: Bankai Form
Bankai Abilities: All techniques available in Shikai are now available in Bankai.
Blades of the Fallen- now he only has to unsheathe his blade partially and the effects of the blades are doubled, because they are much more precise and can be aimed. The last blade sent out will explode upon impact causing even more damage, no matter what it makes impact with.
Swords of the Protector- He can now vary the size from a grain of sand to that of a house. When they make contact with anything they release a surge of reiatsu effecting anything within 25 yards of the impact. Last but not least the speed of the swords are now much faster making them harder to dodge and block, it is still not impossible tho.
Doppelganger- Not much has changed aside from the fact that the Doppelganger has become even more durable, but he can create a second one at will by splitting the first one created this makes them as durable as they were in Shikai release. This can be vital to victory for he can split them almost instantly to surprise an opponent.
New Attacks:
• Yamato's Barrier
While his sword is sheathed, Rin can create a barrier. Though this barrier is not able to stop a physical attack it is able to stop any reiatsu based technique. Due to Yamato needing to be sheathed if he unsheathes it the barrier will vanish.
• Form of Sparda
Rin will turn into what looks like a demon, he gets a boost to all stats. In this form any damage received is halved. Although he can only take this form for 4 posts, it can still change the entire outcome of a battle.
• Internal Blades
Rin will dash with speeds that are only comparable to a masters shunpo, he will unsheathe his sword and attempt to cut his opponent, he will glide straight past the opponent and sheathe his sword. If contact is made, the attack itself from the sword is not really deadly, but as he sheathes his sword blades of reiatsu from where the opponent was cut and will emerge and begin to cut through in all directions. This is extremely deadly, but he must make contact with his sword in order for the rest of the technique to be possible. Dodging is the only way to avoid the full force of this attack, if blocked the sword made contact and as it is sheathed the blades will still form on what blocked it and will still shoot out in every direction still having the possibility to hit the desired target.

Abilities and Special Training:
Rin has spent time training his body for combat of every type, he is great at everything but perfect at nothing. This makes him a dangerous opponent even to people of higher skill level than him. Despite this he tends to try and resolve a situation with words before turning to violence, strategically he is a genius but he keeps most of his abilities hidden. He also dislikes his Bankai form, considering it makes him look like a hollow version of himself, he will only use it if he absolutely needs to. Thus he has accepted defeat many times, due to the fact he refuses to release his Bankai.
Motto: "It is not the mistakes you make that gives you your name, but it is how you correct those mistakes that makes you who you are."
Quote(s): "I would rather not fight, if I can avoid it."
"Sorry were you talking to me, I have a habit of ignoring annoying people."
"Don't make me fight you, I dislike violence."
