Kaien Shiba
Former Vice Captain of the 13th Division

Taken over by a Hollow, killed by Rukia

Back Story: Kaien strikes a strong resemblance to Ichigo but with longer black hair. His attitude was strong and wise and tried to make friends with everyone. When Rukia was placed into the 13th Division, Kaien immediatly tried to make Rukia more comfortable and told her that if she needs to talk to someone, Kaien is happy to help. Kaien also had a wife within the 13th Division, Miyako Shiba. Rukia looked to Miyako as a mother and wanted to be like her. Kaien was looked upon by many. But sadly, Miyako was killed by a Hollow with strange abilities. This Hollow could merge himself within the Soul Reaper and become that person. For revenge, Kaien went to find this Hollow and kill it. But like his Wife, he suffered injuries and ultimatly was took over by this Hollow. The new Hollow Kaien quickly turned his attention to Rukia and attacked her but in an act of a rush, Rukia stabbed him through the chest. Kaien's last words were not that of a man with hatred but that of a man who was grateful and he and the Hollow then passed away.

Zanpaku-to: His Zanpaku-to was called Nejibana. His Initial release chant was "Break the liquid heavens". Sadly due to an ability of the Hollow he fought, as soon as Kaien activated Nejibana, it disintergrated and blew apart.
