----Personality----
--Andrew is probably the most sarcastic shinigami you will ever meet. He is more than likely to blow things off than do them, or give them to his lieutenant. He keeps this face on at most times, but it isn’t his main one. He’ll make jokes when he can, and even pervy ones at that without caring who hears. This will sometimes put off people, but those who know him know he means no harm. he will play problems off as nothing big, not enjoying conflict with friends all that much.

--Loyal: Andrew is loyal to the bone. He would never betray anyone, even an enemy. If they have an agreement, he sticks to it. He absolutely hates traitors, and will punish them to the utmost extreme. This may be an underlying problem that started due to his father having deserted, or when Andrew had a mental break down and killed a few other shinigami. This is a virtue that he makes the troops in his Division hold to the highest regard, believing that Loyalty is key to defending one's home and people.

--Perverted: Andrew is what could be described as a once houndog. Before he met Kirei, Andrew would sleep with any woman who walked, and was pretty. He will constantly show PDA, and doesn’t care who sees. Now that there’s Kirei, all of his pervertedness is focused on her. He’ll kiss her very passionately in front of others, and will touch all up on her. He seems to only be censored at times when there’s either a meeting, battle, or their kids are around.

--Temperance: Andrew holds one other virtue to his heart and that is being temperate. He practices personal restraint on many things, his perverted tendencies ending as soon as he is with someone, and will not break for anything other than his wife and children. When on duty this is even more apparent, having a strong ammount of restraint with emotions. The only thing he focuses on at that time is bringing justice. He also will look within himself and judge his decisions and actions carefully before performing them. He has also learned to be very mindful of his surroundings, most of the time never getting caught off guard.

--Fatherly: If there is one thing Andrew loves more than Kirei, it's his children. Andrew has always wanted to be a father, and loves being one more than anything. He would do anything for his children so long as it is lawful. He tries to instill good habits on the children, but isn't terribly strict on them, remembering what it was like to be a kid. One should not threaten his family lest they want an appendage removed from their body.

Major quirks/habits
-Keeps a sake flask in his jacket.
-Shares a body with a former traitor, Akihiro. Eventually Andrew discovers how to sever their link, and releases him. He is later killed by Andrew’s father.
-Is a\what is called a weaver. Weavers have the ability to create things using reiatsu. Andrew can create and destroy bonds using reiatsu. This also allows him to affect the emotions of someone through touch.
-Is a very good cook.
-Will sometimes sing something Blues or Rock if he’s bored, or working.
-Can play drums.
-Sometimes passes out in the oddest places.
-Has always wanted to be a father, and will eventually have four children.
-Owns an apartment in the world of the living.
-Waits until the last second to do paperwork, but miraculously seems to never miss a due date.
-Has an immense spiritual pressure. His gloves help keep it in check, but he eventually learns to suppress it without them on.

Speech Mannerisms:
-Has a deep, and gravelly voice.
-Has a very light Irish accent due to his celtic ancestry, and growing up around several other Irish shinigami.

----Abilities----
- Andrew is without a doubt the best swordsman in the Gotei. He is a master at Zanjutsu, and knows several other sword fighting techniques such as kendo. He is also very fast, considered to be the second fastest Captain. When he fights, it is usually a quick battle. Andrew uses quick, and precise strikes.
-Visored status: As a visored, Andrew gains all the normal boosts when he dons his mask, mainly in strength, speed and endurance. He can fire a blue cero from his mouth. Andrew's mask is very shark like, with several tribal markings all over it. The teeth have four sabre like fangs, and there is a crack in it where the scar is on his face. His eyes also turn an icy blue with black sclera. His hollow, named Han, is very angry, cold, calculating, and quite insane. Han’s greatest ambition is to take over Andrew’s body and use his powers to sever their bond. He then would break his mask, and become the most powerful arrancar in exsistence. Only problem is that that will never happen.
-Andrew is also considered to be among some of the fastest Captains in his Gotei.

----Weaknesses----
-Has to end a fight quickly or else his zanpakuto will take over, and doesn’t care what happens. This is why Andrew has the burn scar on his chest. He got in the way once, and was hit by own of Ryujin’s chains.
-Isn’t very adept at kido, being only a slight practitioner.

----Zanpakuto----

Name: Kobaruto Ryujin
Type: Fire/crystal
---Appearance: TBD

---Personality: Ryujin is every bit like a knight; chivalrous, noble, and brave. Only problem is that he is impatient, and has a temper. He tends to berate Andrew constantly, and they’re almost always bumping heads.

Shikai: Constant
---Appearance: A silver longsword with a tiny blueish hint to the blade. The hilt guard is a navy blue metal with a sapphire in the middle of it. Its hilt is a dark black wood covered in leather with another sapphire attached to the bottom. The blade will either be smoking, or ablaze with blue or white flame depending on Andrew's mood.

---Abilities:
-Can fire a column of flame from the tip of his blade at an opponent. This technique is called Hakai-sha iki (Japanese for Destroyer breath)

-Chains can form from the sapphire attached to the bottom of the sword's hilt, lengthening and ending in a crystal blade of any sort (ie swords, daggers, axes, spear points, hooks, etc.)

-Kessho Bakuhatsu (Japanese for Crystal explosion): This technique functions as more of a crowd control device. When Andrew either stabs, or slashes Ryujin at the ground, a wave of crystal will form and fan out. THe crystals will then shatter, and the shards will explode in blue flame uppon impact with anything, or anyone.

Bankai:
---Name: Kessho Ryujin (Crystal Dragon God)
---Release: Shatter and consume, Kessho Ryujin
---Appearance: TBA *almost done with the new design, looks great but I need to know exactly how to describe it x'D*

---Abilities: Gains complete control over fire and crystal. Can form things with two fireballs that float over his head, such as arrows, or turn them into crystal spikes.

-Retains all previous abilities, just advanced and more powerful.

-Arach Ard-Righ Keen (Gaelic for dragon king's lament *roughly*): The blade of Andrew's bankai shatters along with his wings, and combines with the fireballs above his shoulders. They then begin to expand, and morph until they represent a large dragon, Ryujin, made of flame and crystal. He then gains total control over the dragon. However this technique is most draining, and will result in Andrew blacking out once finished.

-Anam Tóirse (Gaelic for soul flare): This is Andrew's most powerful attack, and last resort. When Andrew uses it he literally creates an explosion of white flame made from his soul. The flames, instead of going out, will then crystallize and shatter. This flame alights the oxygen in the air, and is deadly not only for the opponent, but Andrew himself. Andrew would only be able to use this when he has nothing else to lose anymore, meaning his family would have to be dead, and he would have to be absolutely positive that he is willing to die.


Reiatsu color: Dark blue, almost black.
Inner world:  Andrew's inner world is that of a great expanse of rolling, green hills. There are several spots of raging blue fire that sends up no smoke. Cloudless blue sky, and crops of blue crystals dot the land. In the middle is a great stone prison that houses Akihiro, and Han; Andrew's inner hollow.

----History----

--Early life: Andrew was born to the second Division Eleven Captain to hold the title of Kenpachi, and the granddaughter of the original Head Captain. His mother died in childbirth after being attacked by a hollow. The hollow placed its essence in her before it died, and that transferred to Andrew. The hollow began to devour Andrew’s tiny body, so Captain Commander Koji Matsuoka made a critical choice to lock the soul of recent traitor Akihiro Nakahara inside the child. This way the hollow essence would be dampened, and Akiyama was safely locked away. Andrew became an orphan, eventually being adopted by Steinar Lovaas. Eventually, more like a few weeks later, a soul named Elizabeth saw Steinar not being able to properly take care of baby Andrew, and took over, becoming the boy's adoptive mother. When Andrew was older he developed his shinigami and visored abilities early, being a prodigy. When this happened Steinar, the Kenpachi, and Tristen Macnamara began to train him to control his abilities. This lead him to eventually become Lieutenant of Division Eleven, and a master swordsman after the Academy. One day many years into being a lieutenant, Andrew had a mental break down when the worst happened. Akihiro began to whisper lies into Andrew’s head, and somehow made him crack. This resulted in him killing two lieutenants, and a Captain during a meeting. At this point Central Forty-six made a decision; since Andrew wasn’t necessarily the one at fault he was to be locked up for five hundred years, have his memory erased, and put into a gigai that would turn him human.

--Release: In the year 2012, Andrew was released. He was given fake memories, and dumped into Hong Kong. After two days of being human, Andrew’s father, Lobos,  found him. He thought that he was just Akihiro in Andrew’s body so he tried to kill him. This resulted in Andrew’s gigai being destroyed. Lobos stabbed Andrew in the chest, causing there to be a rift in his soul thanks to Lobos’ zanpakuto. Andrew was able to fight Lobos for a short bit before being rescued by a shinigami.

--Becoming Captain: Andrew became Captain after he won a competition that was held to decide Division Nine’s new Captain. Soon after Andrew went on a mission with his new Lieutenant and Third seat, who were brother and sister. On the mission Lobos found them, and killed Andrew’s third seat after giving him the scar on his face. It was then thought that Andrew had killed Lobos. After that though, Akihiro got loose from the rift in Andrew’s soul. He eventually got loose, and gathered a group of Arrancar, lead by Garacas Anillo. They invaded the Soul Society, and attempted to assassinate Captain Commander Matsuoka. There Andrew was able to defeat Akihiro, and reseal him inside his body. A year and a half later Andrew was relaxing when a rift opened up, and out of it dropped an extremely wounded Kirei Jaques. He took her to the Division Four clinic where she was healed. He never left her side, having felt a connection with her. They eventually fell in love with eac hother, and later started a family. *Hehe yay for details being left out from my AU eue. All you get is how Kirei comes in eue*
