He is about 5'4 or 162 and 52 kil or 114 pounds. He wears Himaru on his back. 【[u][b]Biography:[/b][/u] Aki was lucky enough to end up in Hokutan, the 3rd district of west Rukongai, after dying, even if he had no memories of his life in the human world. Despite this it took him several years to even attempt to enter Seireiti after becoming aware he had Reiatsu because he had no interest in becoming part of the Gotei 13. After learning that keeping the balance meant souls in Rukongai were killed if things were bad enough in the human mind he changed his mind. Still it took Aki two tries to get into Shin'ō Academy due to him barely failing the written exam the first time. Seeing unarmed combat as the weakest link in Zankensoki he put the least amount of work into learning Hakuda while trying to raise the other to about equal levels for the sake of versatility. In his third year he ended up sparring against the strongest member of his class: Yua Ōmaeda. Their kido skills were about equal, but in everything else she greatly outclassed him and as such he lost. Determined to win in at least some form Aki focused more on Kido from then on and over the course of a few more sparring sessions grew closer to the rebellious noble, asking her out after six months. The Ōmaeda family found out before things got serious between them and pulled a few strings to let Yua graduate early and become an unseated officer if she broke up with Aki. The remaining two years were mostly unremarkable and Aki eventually graduated as well, joining the third division and befriending Eichi. All in all aki considered things to be going pretty well until Hiroki began taunting him. eventually Aki was pushed too far and began chanting the incantation for [url=https://bleach.fandom.com/wiki/Ōkasen]Ōkasen[/url]. He was stopped before he could use the technique but it was still enough to get him in trouble. Luckily it only ended with Aki missing out on several chances for promotion over the next couple of years. 【[u][b]Personality:[/b][/u] While Aki is introverted and prefers to avoid crowds he doesn't mind hanging out with friends. He also doesn't let his competitive streak get in the way of befriending people who have beaten him.

Still he mostly relies on Kido and Hoho to fight from a distance, and focus on not getting hit himself. As a result he isn't as good in close quarters combat or tanking hits.

Otherwise, those possessing this specialty must choose either Hado or Bakudo as their Primary and Secondary, respectively. The Primary discipline gains the full allotment of spells for their rank, whereas the secondary gains the allotment for one tier below their Proficiency. Individuals exceeding the Grandmaster Proficiency Tier are capable of utilizing their secondary at the same rank as their primary, but they are not capable of creating new Kidō of that class. Individuals below Grandmaster cannot utilize Forbidden Kidō, whereas those at Legend or Mythic Proficiency may create Forbidden Kidō. Individuals below Adept cannot create new Kidō.[/indent] [/indent][/indent][/indent][/hider] [indent][indent][indent][indent][u][b][h3]【Artes】[/h3][/b][/u][/indent][/indent][/indent][/indent][hider][u][b]Shunpo[i](Hoho Practitioner)[/i]:[/b][/u] [indent]: meaning “Flash Steps,” this technique, while not the pinnacle of Hoho, is the primary Arte afforded by the Skill. This Arte allows the user to move faster than the eye can easily follow by using as few steps as possible to cross a distance. The higher the user’s Hoho Proficiency, the faster and more efficient this Arte becomes. This technique clashes against the Perception Skill, meaning that the lower an individual’s skill value is, the more difficulty they will have predicting the trajectory of or even following the user’s movement. This becomes more pronounced if the Perception Skill is at a lower Proficiency Tier than the Shunpo User’s Hoho Skill.

Thanks to Himaru's flames the power of the spell is boosted (10 points higher than Aki's spirit stat) while maintaining it's explosive properties. [i][u]Kyokaen (Mirror Fire Flame ):[/u][/i] Aki holds Himaru pointing straight up and as he moves it the side a "wall" of fire as tall as the sword from hilt to tip is left behind it. This allows it to basically clash with techniques or attacks that hit it. It always uses Aki's spirit at but it goes up against Kido or energy based attacks it clashes against the opponent's spirit and for Zanjutsu/Hakuda or a physical object it is against their strength stat. Even if it fails the incoming attack will be debuffed (it'll act like it's one milestone tier lower than it would have been). If it wins, the attack is blocked.
