Name: Kesshin Yuigon
Gender: Male
Age: 527
Reiatsu Color: A slate color.
Reiatsu Aura: A sense of doubt. In ones decisions, ones looks, or ones self in general.
Faction: 4th Division
Rank: 7th Seat
Appearance: Yuigon stands at about six feet tall, give or take an inch. Weighing about 180 pounds, he is on the slim side but does show hints of muscle and possesses broad shoulders. His eyes are a combination of green and blue, making them appear almost as if they are pools of sea water. His hair is a dirty blond with streaks of gray that goes down to his shoulders, despite looking like he was only in his mid-twenties by "human standards". Whatever those were.

Personality: Rather ironically, Yuigon has a low self-esteem and dislikes making decisions. This being because he doubts his ability to do so. He tries to be as polite as possible, even with those ranked below himself. Perhaps it is because of his politeness that he is often called nice or easily approachable.
Yuigon enjoys battle. A big part of why he enjoys fighting is that he has no time to worry about his uncertainty. Well, that and he doesn't mind the feeling of adrenaline rushing through his veins. A battle allows him to focus entirely on what is going on, and take him out of his self-deprecating thoughts, instead concentrating his thoughts on defeating his opponent. As a result of this, people have remarked that he is completely different in a fight. If it is a serious battle, and he is being pushed, he will exploit any and all openings he can, making him seem cruel in the eyes of some.
Thanks to his self-esteem issues, this Shinigami has a hard time accepting compliments and just plain becomes confused when advances are made towards him. After all, if he does not even like himself, then how could anyone "love" him? When it comes to hobbies, he enjoys anything that is hands-on, especially crafting things.
History:
1473 n.w. - Kesshin Yuigon is born to a family that works on one of the farms in the Recreational areas of the Seireitei.
1550 n.w. - By now, Yuigon is the oldest of seven siblings, and their mother falls ill. As the Gotei becomes more organized, their father is also called upon to become a Shinigami.
1623 n.w. - News reaches Yuigon and the rest of his family that his father was killed by a Hollow on one of his missions. The news seems to worsen his mother's condition, as does the thought that Yuigon was now old enough to be called upon as well.
1673 n.w. - Most of the children are now old enough to either take care of themselves, or take care of each other. His responsibilities lessened, Yuigon is called upon to be trained as a Shinigami. Seeing her son leave the same way that his father had, the worry worsens the mother's condition even further and she passes during her sleep.
1800 n.w. As a result of his poor Reiatsu control, it takes a very long time for Yuigon to finally be assigned to a division. When he is sent to the Fourth division, he takes the new last surname of "Kesshin" in order to remind himself to never give up, despite his doubts.
2000 n.w. Present - Yuigon has worked to rise through the ranks, getting to where he is now, much to his own amazement.
Yuigon comes from from simple roots. His original surname, which he received from his farming parents, was Kongou. Responsibility was placed on him at an early age, first helping to work the farm and then caring for his six other siblings when his parents were unable to do so. When he was sent to become a Shinigami, he simply saw it as another responsibility that he had to do, just another way to protect his siblings. But the effect that the death of both parents had on him was pretty profound. He had no control over their deaths, no way to prevent it or even make it easier on them. His lack of impact seemed to make him lose faith in his own ability to impact events, and lead to the doubts that root so deeply into his being.

Division Skill: Reiatsu Beacon
Free Skill: Self Control - Rather self explanatory. Due to his unusual childhood, he has had to keep a tight reign on his emotions. When you are in charge of other people, you can not let your emotions get the best of you and appear weak. It takes a lot to get him angry, and he will not crack simply from pressure. This makes it almost impossible to provoke him.

Zanpakutō Name: Kagamihana
Spirit: The spirit of Kagamihana takes the form of a beautiful woman with knee-length raven colored hair and chocolate brown eyes. She is of a rather average height, being about five and a half feet tall and has shapely curves with a small waist. Well, perhaps that is not entirely accurate, as she can change her features on a whim based on what she finds to be "beautiful". Kagamihana is vain, and will often look at her own reflection in a hand mirror that seems to be on her person at all times. She can be quite prideful and haughty, but perhaps this is her own way to mask insecurity.
Inner World: All the world's a stage... Or at least, his entire inner world is a giant coliseum, surrounded by empty stands. At the top of the walls lining the stands are spot lights, that Kagamihana can manipulate to point anywhere within the coliseum.
Sealed: Kagamihana actually manifests as two katana, which he keeps sheathed on each side of his waist. The hilt of each katana is about 11 inches in length, in order to allow a two-handed grip on either sword. Both also have a blade length of 25 inches. This makes them somewhat on the short side for katana, but the weight and balance is better suited for wielding two swords at once. One sword has a silver tsuba and bright yellow hilt, while the other has a golden tsuba with a pink hilt. This has on occasion awarded him with ridicule for his "girly" weapons.
Shikai: The Shikai of Kagamihana focuses around the properties of light. The "pink" katana turns into a double-edged short sword made of crystal, forming a prism effect. The "yellow" katana keeps its shape, but the blade is now formed from mirror.
Attack: Houkou - Both blades are infused with his Reiatsu, so if and when they break, he can manipulate the shards. The shards can only move in a straight line, and will continue to move in that straight line until given another order.
With Reiatsu skill level one, he can only control one shard of each at a time. This is not to say he could not launch one shard, and then quickly launch another, but maintaining control tires him quickly at this stage. Once he gets to level two with Reiatsu skill, he can control up to five shards of each at one time. Finally, at level three, he can control up to ten shards of each at once. Per post, he can take control of the shards up to three times per post. So 3, 15, and 30 shards for each sword per post respectively.
