Name: Toria Mifune
Age: 1265
Height: 6'2"
Weight: 152lbs
Division: 13th
Rank: Captain
Appearance:
Mifune is a big guy, standing at six feet and 2 inches, he can be considered as one as well. Strengthening this height is also his slender build and his not very strong looking body, that shows but no unnecessary fat or anything other than that. In his shinigami uniform, it looks a bit out of place, since it somehow seems as if the uniform is to small for this guy. He kinda likes more his leisure outfit, he is wearing when he is out of missions or in his gigai, which wears the same as he does in leisure time. His arms are long as his body and he is kinda glad about it, so he can reach his back without great problems and hasn´t to stain his uniform by maybe rubbing it on a wall or something.
His face is oval, but with a long chin, so that it looks a bit to long as well, like his body sometimes seem to be. His mouth is small, or at least seems to be like that, even though he is good at calling out as he has to command sometimes lower seated ones around and so has become used to raise his voice. His voice is but when he talks quiet and careful of what he says. With his narrowed eyes, that are very long, he all the time looks like he is mad or at least annoyed, as his eyes are also quite slant, he gives off even more the feeling of a japanese guy, so it is by no mean difficult to find out where he stems from. Also, another trait is that he always carries his zanpakuto around, not really for means of being secure, because he feels like there´s not really a need for in seireitei, but because he just enjoys feeling the hard grip of his sword at his side. His nose is rather small and his eyes of a brown wooden color. His finger are big and his hands too, making it better to grip his katana when he needs it or for hard work.
Personality: Mifune, he is, like all shinigami, or at least most of them totally into the opinion that there is no force, the seireitei couldn´t handle. As this seems to be an illness of some sort and they even call themselve death gods for apparent reasons, they kinda also act like that. Mifune has taken this kind of trait and has made it his own as he felt as an outsider before he did so. Always when he was saying that something seemed to be dangerous, or they should pull back, most of the time, his comrades just shook their heads and laughed the danger away. Always barely making it after it, with more injuries than they had thought or even some badly wounded people on the verge of death. But even so, nobody had listened what he said if he warned them. So, he saw no other way, but to adapt and quietly think about the powerdifference and such. Also, now whenever he and his division gets into a difficult problem or have to fight difficult enemies, he always works double as hard to save trouble from the other.
Adapting is a trait and personality he has learned after many years in seireitei, he learned to adapt to the rough nature of rukongai and to the serving under other people, who didn´t wanted to hear his comments and always talked him down, as he isn´t that much of a smart talker then most. He is more the guy who always tries to come up with a good reasoning, so he also doesn´t like to argue. As he is now a captain, he can at least care for his subordinates that they don´t fight, at least when he is around. Though he isn´t a heavy smoker, he can nearly all the time be seen with a cigarette in his mouth or a straw of grass or anything.
History: Lithian was born into a regular family at that time, he had five sisters and 4 brothers, the whole city, he was born into, was somehow related to each other and everyone, who came new into the city, was just taken into the circle as that was common and there were enough young men or women to do so. The city smelled everyday after what was sold and what had been eaten. The hygienically wasn´t the least bit advanced and a full bath was considered as dangerous as the people believed, that the water would contain just too much illnesses and sharks to be a safe place. Lithian was born just into such a city and his birth were nowhere announced as he wasn´t some child of a big warrior, who was honored for what he had done, but just born to a farming family, who hadn´t much to struggle, but had also nothing to spare. His birth was at least a good one, as he wouldn´t be as expensive as a girl. Girls had to bring their gifts for a marriage, but because there were only marriages between the villagers, the money and gifts never really vanished, but was just moved from one point to another, maybe coming back at some point to the family, who first gave it away.
Lithian grew up with other kids his age and class, didn´t gone to school. Didn´t even knew what a school was and so had no education at all. He didn´t learned sword art in some ninja dojo, somewhere up in the mountains, like the heroes in his dreams. He was just a normal human being. And so, he took on the work of his father as he died at the age of 30, what was a relative normal age to die and the only big thing so far was, that he had a big argue with his brother´s about who would get the fields and who the house. As well as he was the one left out and so, he had nothing at some point in his life. He then married a women and even though, he couldn´t remember her name very well, they were together and got three child's. Two sons and a little girl. As the village was plundered because of a war, that seemed to be far from the village as they got messages like every half year and the last had been about some enemies, climbing the mysterious mountains somewhere, far, far away. but, because the life just was like that, many got killed, as well as Lithian`s wife and his daughter and one son. He and his other son hid soon enough, so they could life, but as they saw the family die, they cried both together. After all, they were just normal humans and they feared their own death more than others. They would just weep after the soldiers were gone.
But the soldiers didn´t go that easily, their army had to less people and so they were forcing people into their army. Also Lithian and his son were found and Lithian was taken as a soldier, getting a spear, to heavy as he could handle it proper and an armor, to small as it would bring anything. And so, his life as a soldier began, he was told were to go and which direction he had to face around superiors, he was even told in which direction he had to breath and that he, when he would die, what was rather clear to the one who described it to him, that he had to fall toward the enemy, so that they would be held up. At least a bit and then he wouldn´t be that useless as he was even now. He was then showed, where he had to stand and when he had to sleep at this place. And even though Lithian wished, that he could just kill all of this people around him, he feared losing his life even earlier than it would be taken already. So he was following orders, like a dog, slept like a dog and got even less food than a dog.
The first battle, he only lived through, because he was acting dead, under some of his comrades dead bodies and as he was laying there, the battle raging over him, he thought about the plain, but at least not dangerous life at home. The smoke was covering the battlefield and blood was flowing out of the bodies above him, like their life force had already flowed out. Lithian hadn´t killed even one person so far, he had just jumped between the bodies to be considered as dead and left alone. But now, as he lifted his head, a hand pulled his head out of the mountain of bodies, cursing him for being a coward and saying that this person would kill him the next time, he would flee from his duty's. So, the next time, Lithian was told to stay in the front row. The survival chance of him staying alive was even lower of that of a day fly staying alive a year, zero and below. So, right at the first wave, he was spiked upon a dozen lances, the enemy ones and the ones from behind, the ones from the army, he had served for at least a few days. But nobody cared and he slowly saw his body decaying like hundred´s other. That was as he became a soul.
Hundreds of people had died, so the mournings were very loud and at the end of that day, there had been already some hollow´s to get themselves a big piece of the cake. But just as they started, a whole squad of shinigami appeared and even though they looked like they could need some rest, they defeated the hollows and then started to bury the souls. Lithian like the rest was then sent to soul society and even though he was scared like mad, he quickly forgot it, as he felt warmth at his face and then forgot everything, leaving all memories of him being human back where they had come from.
After he woke up, he found himself in the middle of a street, some people looking at him while going further. He was just another new comer, just suddenly appearing on the street, as he looked around, he was feeling like he was at home. Though he didn´t really knew if he was home, he felt as if he were right now. After that hard weeks began for him, though he was thrown into a low district of Rukongai, there was always some commotion going on and some time he was also caught up into it. Until one time, suddenly some guys were going crazy and the shinigami were called to the place. Even the former taichou, Jushiro Ukitake was with them and he was it also who picked up the hopeless young man from the ground. He then felt the reiatsu waving out from him, and gave him new hope, he was taken into the shinigami academy and made his way finally as he was a very good student and his grades were always top notch.
As he had to pick a division, he picked the 13th division, even though it was told him, that the work there would be boring, he joined and was seated as the 6th seat first, right after the bat, as he had good reiatsu control, even though he wasn´t adept with kido, and had this strange ability to secure sites with ease. 150 years later, he even noticed his shikai and the spirit within his sword, he even got sometimes hours of training from Ukitake taichou. Then as the war came, Ukitake had to move around more than usual and so his illness became worse and he died 100 years after the first war from his illness as all had already settled again. After the war then, he was called for the funeral, it was very sad and an experience he will never forget. Right after it, he was called to the soutaichou and was then tested, he had acquired bankai in the war and was already well known for leading people and coming back from even the hardest missions with only few wounds. So after the test he was then officialy the 13th division captain, though all had already acknowledged him as he had leaded most of them through the war and they knew what he was capable of.
Abilities:

Keep out - Though Mifune isn´t adept at Kido, he has gained another ability, he can wherever he touches create a keep out band, that is hard to break, a hit with a fire based kido can melt it and a hit from a lieutenant or a normal shikai cn rip it. He can extend it as long as he want and use it for whatever he thinks is okay, like binding the opponents sword by first touching it and then something different like a wall, binding it to it.

Release phrase (shikai): Mugen Ichitou Soutei Kamae (Infinite one-sword binding style)
Shikai: In his shikai, ghe first yells out the phrase with the name of his sword and then as if he would swing to some enemy above his sword. While doing so, many swords are created and rain down onto everyone around. Now Mifune can attack and when he throws a sword and pick up another, one will grow for the one taken, while the one taken from it´s place will vanish if let loose. The other ability of them is to bind, whenever Mifune strikes, a yellow stripe made of reiatsu with the letters: "KEEP OUT" is created that roots right into the ground, binding the enemy.
Zanpakutoh: Fukusuurei (Multiple Ghosts)
Bankai release phrase: Keijiken (Sword apocalypse)
Bankai: Suddenly the swords standing around explode in many fragmnts, these fragments then form a new sword, creating very many swords, all floating around in the air, everywhere are swords by now. These swords now can be controlled wherever Mifune wants them to go, having the same ability as before, that everything they slash gets tied onto the ground. Mifune will most likely just stand around by now, controlling his swords, he is said to have the best control over his bankai in whole seireitei as he can control many swords at a time, the others are just floating around.
RP Sample The sun was just rising. Some birds were singing and Lithian cursed them both. He pulled up his head and looked around, after a confusing second, or two, he remembered yesterday. He had drunk too much and then his memories got blurred, sometimes free time weren´t as good as they should be. He shook his head a bit and noticed that he had no hang-over, that was rare after a night of drinking. He tried to entwine the fog around his memories, but just to make the fog more and he shook his head another time. Now, a headache was coming over him and he quickly took out the small tube, filled with painkillers. As he rattled it a bit, while filling a glass with water, he noticed something. He shook it a second time and then got it. It was empty... "F***ing d**n it all." He called out, while throwing the tube somewhere into the room, suddenly hearing a sound. There seemed to have been one left, that had been stuck at the bottom. He slowly walked in the direction, where he had thrown the tube. "Good tube, come to papa." As if that would help anything, but it calmed down Lithian a bit and he searched further for the tube.
As he found it, he kicked against a table and called out some other words, I´m not able to tell at this point. As he opened the tube, he saw the last pill at the end and tried to get it out. After five minutes of him cursing tubes and stuff that doesn´t wanted to come out, he got it out. At that time, he had already gone back into the kitchen and his glass was still standing where he had put it. He then threw the pill in and sat down, even though his headache had vanished by now, it was just satisfying, that he at least had been able to win over the tube and get a pill out of it. He would just drink it with a smile at his face, knowing, that the next time, he would curse himself as he wouldn´t buy another tube, but forget about such a little thing. As the pill finally had dissolved, he drank it, smiling. Though it was bitter.
As he had done so, he walked back into his bedroom and pulled up his clothes, greeting his sword, that was standing at the side and then shortly making mental contact to Medusa, asking her if she had slept good. As he got an answer, he became pale. "What did you say? I have overslept a whole day? And higher up had been here, but has gone after he saw that I was sleeping?" Lithian´s face turned even more pale as he heard also, what he had done and said the day before yesterday. He wanted to vanish, just vanish. He fell down on his bed and didn´t move for at least five minutes. Then he jumped up and put on his clothes, gently putting on the sheath, so that the sword wouldn´t spring forth like a snake and then raced toward the divisions quarter. His back straightened from itself as he entered the quarters and noticed, that he was just standing before the higher up. He just bowed and said: "I´m so sorry, I´m at loss for words for my unacceptable behavior."
