Nothing seems important to him, and he does things according to his own schedule. Deep down, Kyogen still feels guilty, and using his 'messing with people' as a chance to take his anger out, often taking it too far. Infact, his guilts severe enough, Kyogen sometimes wanders into the 'death seeker' category, yet his fear of death makes him never act on it himself. Instead of actively trying to hurt himself, he takes on as many dangerous missions as he can, and always volunteers as vanguard. He also has a tendency to mess with the 11th division as well for this same reason. With his captain, Kyogen is a complete opposite: he seems insane and unorderly compared to her elegance and control; she is nice, he is down right vicious at times; he is free, she is strict; and her idealism clashes with his pragmatism. Noting her 'change', he always tries to show the world as ugly, and ideals having no place in it. Despite that, he enjoys someone to contrast with him so much, in some ways, it gives him hope. [i][b]History:[/b][/i] Officially a noble, Kyogen grew up in the Seireiti, as part of the Akechi clan. The entire clan were shinigami, and expected Kyogen to be one from an early age. Not only that, but they expected him to act like a noble. Kyogen never cared about nobility, or the image associated with it. He felt like the Seireiti was stifling, and refused to act the part. He longed to live in the Rukongai. He and his father often clashed. During one 'training' excersize, his father went too far, beating him in the name of 'training'. That day, Kyogen snapped, and killed his father in the name of 'training' with his zanpakuto. Although it went down as a training incident, Kyogen left his house, and his zanpakuto was left there. For years he begged in the Seireiti, but was hardly ever helped. In the end, he did end up becoming a soul reaper, partially out of desperation, and partially out of guilt for his father. To this day, he hates his last name. Relationships/Friendships/Rivalries/Siblings: Idealogical rivalry with captain.
