Being of Japanese descent, Mitsuhiro is blessed with dark ravenous locks - the creed of his worker class clan granted him a nice, tropical tan to match the dark coloration of his hair. The mess reaches to his shoulders when left to its own devices, but he most commonly keeps the mass in place with a simply hair tie.
His face is slim and angular, containing both traces of masculinity and femininty, in the curve of his eyebrow and the sharpness of his chin. His eyes are angular, the pupils themselves dark green, bordering on black. He wears the standard shinigami garb, not bothering to attempt any sort of personalization.
The structure of his form reeks of athletisicm - long and lean, he cuts quite the imposing figure despite the easiness of his smile. His frame is lined with compact, wiry muscle, masked beneath the bellowing kimono and yukata of shinigami dress. Due to its length, his bokken is strapped to his back by way of a thin black string, the sight of it almost impossible against the backdrop of his obsidian garments.

Appearance: A red oak bokken of odachi length - easily eighty centimeters long from base to tip, with a wooden pommel measuring an additional thirty two centimeters in length. Even when sealed the weapon is highly effective, strong enough to break bone when swung with enough force. However, once released, Saraswati morphs into an entirely different entity, showcasing the beauty and majesty of eloquence. An innocuous training blade becomes a weapon worthy of Masumune, sword and handle doubling in length to eclipse the realms of reality. The guard is of circular shape, following the standard design. The blade itself is tinted blue like the waves of the ocean, and the handle is bathed purple wraps that flicker like a starlit night sky. The size of the weapon is quite immense in this form, and requires considerable skill to manuever.
Manifestation: Saraswati appears as a woman of indian descent, intensely beautiful yet agelessly wise all the same. Her style of dress can be described as comfortable - she envelopes herself in hues of blue and white and violet, the farbic of her clothing sheer and silken. She does not appear to be a warrior at all - in fact, she appears more a seductive gypsy, half her face masked behind an azure veil that only draws attention to her almond shaped violet optics.
Inner World: An endless beach of sand and forever flowing ocean loced in eternal dawn. No trees dot the horizon - no birds soar in the sky. There is only the gentle hum of the waves lapping against the soar and the utter silence of solitude. The landscape is hauntingly beautiful - a paradise indeed - but in its timeless nature, it becomes a figment of nightmare, existing as an embodiment of callous spite.
Release Phrase: "Sing, Saraswati." "Saezuru, Saraswati."
Abilities:
A lunging swipe of the azure tinted blade releases a torrent of bruising kinetic energy thrice the height of a human; it bull-dozes through even the hardest of materials, easily pushing through rock and bone alike. The pressure created from the intial lunge generates enough force to crush a creature, pulverizing their body - the concussive force is sickle shaped and its size and shape is relative to the blades own dimensions. Thrice the height, thrice the width of an average human body, and capable of traveling upwards of fifteen meters before dissipating, depending on Mitsuhiro's skill. The speed and severity of the attack is directly dependant upon Mitsuhiro's Zanjutsu prowess - expertise of Zanjutsu releases a "blast" capable of rivaling any speed specialist, but a mastery of Zanjutsu enables a far more lethal rendition of the ability, capable of rivaling a Hoho Master in velocity [equal to his current rank]. As a Zanjutsu specialist, the attack's length of travel is doubled, equaling thirty meters - mastery of Zanjutsu allows for three times the length of travel, enabling a blast to fly for as far as forty-five meters. Mitsuhiro can not utilize this skill more than thrice in a row without resting for one turn. For every five ranks achieved, he can utilize the skill thrice more per turn before resting. The further the attack travels, the weaker it becomes - after traveling for three fifths of its max length, the attack power is halved. The power to crush bones lessens to severe bruising - certainly painful, but not at all fatal.
Defensive [ Kido Based ] - Tenryū-ji [Heavenly Dragon Temple]: 10
Reiatsu seeps from Mitsuhiro's very pores, it's nature heavily tinted by Saraswati's influence , encasing him in a translucent shield that protects from high to low level attacks. Therefore, it has the potential to lower the effectiveness of very high level Reiatsu based attacks to low level attacks, though this can be circumvented with an intensely concentrated beam of energy. This is a very taxing skill - as a Kido specialist, Mitsuhiro can only utilize this technique once for every three ranks achieved. As a Kido master, the skill can be executed once for every two ranks attained. The Reiatsu shield is considerably dense, fitting close to his skin giving him an otherworldy sheen.
Supplementary [ Kido Based ] - Ryōan-ji [Dragon Temple of Peace]: 15
This is the fruit of years of labor and a subtle "improvement" to Tenryu-ji. Instead of his released Reiatsu forming a defensive shield, his Reiatsu imitates the consistency of water, allowing him to flow around attacks and obstacles with no wasted motion. Every inch of his body solidifies Reishi, giving him ultimate traction to propel himself through the atmosphere. A very taxing technique, the ability can only be maintained one turn for every four ranks achieved as a Kido specialist. As a Kido master, the skill can be maintained one turn for every three ranks acheieved. Once the limit has been reached, the user must rest a full two turns before the skill can be implemented once more.
[ Note that Mistuhiro truly does not gain any speed - he simply wastes less motion, enabling him to perform on par with Hoho specialists or masters, depending on his natural skill. Non-specialist -> Specialist -> Master ]

Hado
- Hadō No. 4: Byakurai (Way of Destruction No. 4: White Lightning) [Chantless | 90% effectivenes]
Type: Destruction Art.
Description: The user gathers a tiny amount of reiatsu to the fingertip of their dominant index finger, extending it outward along with the middle finger. The other fingers are folded into the palm. The user then lays the palm of their off hand face-down on the wrist of the dominant hand. The fingertip will swell with blue-white energy before exploding forward in a narrow, piercing beam of white lightning-like reiatsu, capable of punching holes through opponents.
Incantation: White chariot! Blue soldiers, rustled leaves, thirteen black clouds, unleash the sky! Hado no Yon: Byakurai!
Restrictions: --
[ 3 spell points spent ] - Hadō No. 27: Sanrai Shunha (Way of Destruction No. 27: Triple Thunder Flash Tooth)
Type: Destruction Art.
Description: The user gathers reiatsu into their dominant hand, focusing it into the fingertips of their middle, index, and ring fingers. The user then points these three fingers towards the target, palm facing downward. They then place the palm of their offhand on the dominant elbow. Three lines of yellow energy, reminiscent of claws or talons, shoot from the fingertips, seeking to skewer the target. These ‘claws’ are capable of puncturing right through a person.
Incantation: Ye lord! Thunder of earth and heaven, roar of midnight loss, shivering fins, steadfast three as bright as the empty soul! But thrice give out your merciful roar! Hado no Nijuunana: Sanrai Shunha!
Restrictions: Must have knowledge of Byakurai.
Bakudo
- Bakudō No. 8: Seki (Way of Binding: Repulse)
Type: Binding Art.
Description: Condensing the user's reiatsu in front of them, they create a small golden-colored shield of energy. The technique's defensive capability is, unfortunately, highly limited, and even the most powerful of casters will find the ability only capable of blocking Kidō of the first Category. However, a secondary ability exists within the spell as well: opponents why physically strike the shield will be knocked backwards, sending them flying a few feet. It also paralyzes the limb that struck it for one turn.
Incantation: The royal protector, true in heart and mind, know the owner of the crown and pledge loyalty unto him. Bakudō no Hachi: Seki!
Restrictions: --- - Bakudō No. 9: Geki (Way of Binding: Strike)
Type: Binding Art.
Description: Extending the caster's dominant hand forward, they will then begin the incantation for the spell. A red light will begin to completely envelop them, similar to new casters of the Shakkaō. When the incantation is finished, the red light will form as a thin beam of energy, which then flies towards the opponent. The red light, upon striking the opponent, will completely envelop them, hindering any and all movements, greatly reducing their speed capabilities. A sufficient counterspell is required to break the technique, as brute physical force cannot release them from something that is not completely restraining them. Lasts for three turns.
Incantation: Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini! Look upon yourself with horror and then claw out your own throat!
Restrictions: Must know Bakudō no Hachi: Seki.

. H i s t o r y .
Where to begin? Mitsuhiro remebers a mortal life spent in study - he attended a rather upstanding university before his untimely death, broadcasting the strength of his intelligence. Further skill was indicated by his standing in Dojo no Niten-ryū, a dojo in the heart of Kyoto, Japan that preached the way of Bushido. The dojo taught the art of two heavens, or, more simply put, the art of attacking with Katana and wakizashi. He was skilled for his age, but only truly a beginner.
In truth, his life didn't truly start until his death. A terrorist attack ended his life - a malignant militia gained control of a train and collided it with his own means of passage, kiling not only himself but hundreds of other citizens. Of his family, only his mother and sister remain - sorrow drove them from Karakura town to the continent, removing the threat of subjectivity.
Upon arrival to the Soul Society, Mitsuhiro swiftly enrolled in the Shinigami academy - here was his chance to really make something of himself, as he had been tring to do whilst still tangled in the mortal coil. As it where now, with nothing to distract him, he could devote the breadth of his prodigious talent to the ways of the Shinigami, his goal to be the greatest amongst them. Time was of no consequence - other wordly focus and drive enabled an expedient graduation and inductment into the famed first division - the home of tacticians. Of course, his lacksadaisal nature belied the nature of his intensity - many of his peers were unaware of his genius.
He dabbled in Kido, and experimented with the limits of Shunpo, seeking to break past the constricting barriers that had been erected by the passage of time. He would not have history repeat itself - the Shinigame would reign supreme...
Till the end of eternity.
