Name:Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto
Age:Belived to be close to 8000
Gender:Male
Class:Captain-Commander Shinigami
Hair :Yamamoto is bald but he has a very long white beard, and long eyebrows
Eyes :Red eyes
Height:168 cm (5'6")
Weight:52 kg (115 lbs)
General Look:There are many scars on his torso and head, the two most prominent being a pair of long, perpendicular scars above his right eye, suggesting numerous battles in his pasHe wears the standard Shinigami uniform, but its size is greatly exaggerated. He also drapes his haori over his back instead of actually wearing it. Despite his old and frail appearance, he has a very muscular body that he only reveals when he takes a certain battle stance, something that, Shunsui claims, is not seen too often.
Personality:As the captain-commander of Gotei 13, Yamamoto is highly respected by most of the Shinigami, most notably Sajin Komamura, who views Yamamoto as a benefactor who saved his life. The embodiment of conviction, Yamamoto follows the laws and regulations of Soul Society to the letter, and expects the same of others. He is not a man to tolerate insubordination, and is vocal with those who attempt to act in such a manner. He is quick to anger in the face of possible betrayal, and can be quite aggressive in combat. When in a state of peace, he carries himself with an air of frailty, even to the point where he has fallen asleep standing while awaiting Shunsui Ky¨raku's arrival for a meeting. Due to years of experience, Yamamoto very rarely shows any sign of distress or surprise, usually responding by opening one or two of his eyes, which are partially closed slits the majority of the time.
Yamamoto is very loyal to Soul Society and takes his duties very seriously, expecting the same from the rest of the Gotei 13. His loyalty is so great that he is willing to sacrifice himself and the Gotei 13 in order to defeat Aizen, believing it to be their duty to lay down their lives for the sake of the Soul Society if necessary. Another example where Yamamoto shows his loyalty, is when he become visibly angry when Shunsui, Byakuya and Kenpachi lose their haoris and show little regret; to him the haori represents their status as captains
Family :Adoptive Son:Rikuo Nura Yamamoto
History:Yamamoto founded the Shinigami Academy about 2100 years before the current time. Yamamoto was himself a teacher at this academy, and personally instructed Shunsui Kyoraku and Jushiro Ukitake. He admits to being rather proud of the two. When they became captains, he boasted about them as though they were his own sons. Approximately one thousand years ago, Yamamoto founded and became the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13.
Sample RP:Yamamoto was sitting in the main assembly hall of the first division headquarters performing the monthly tea ceremony that he liked to do and his squad was only to happy to respect the head captains wishes after all Yamamoto was the strongest warrior in the Soul Society and this was an easy way for the squad to get to know their captain.Yamamoto used the small hand grinder to keep crushing the tea leaves until their were finely ground he then added the tea leaves to the kettle and then poured it into the cup in front of him and then added some sweetener before taking a drink from the tea cup.It took only a few moments for the squad to also finish their own tea's and the tea ceremony was complete.

Zanpakto Name:Ryujin Jakka (流刃若火, "Flowing Blade-like Flame"): His Zanpakuto is the oldest and the most powerful fire-type Zanpakuto and has greater attack power than all other Zanpakuto in Soul Society. In its sealed form, Ryujin Jakka usually takes the appearance of a harmless wooden staff which can be used like a spear. At any time, Yamamoto can instantly remove that disguise, by peeling off the wood, to reveal its true form of a standard katana with a dark purple handle and a circular hand guard. Its power is so great that even the strongest of Shinigami are afraid of it even in its sealed form.
Shikai: Its Shikai command is "Reduce All Creation to Ash" (万象一切灰燼と為せ, banshō issai kaijin to nase; "All things in the universe turn to ashes" in the English Dub).[102] The release of his Zanpakuto comes with an extreme release of spiritual pressure affecting all in the area, and can be felt for miles upon miles across all of Seireitei.
Shikai Special Ability: When released, Ryujin Jakka's blade is engulfed into fire.The aura of this weapon can disintegrate everything and anything that Yamamoto waves the sword at, changing it into nothing more than ash and engulfing the surrounding landscape in a blazing firestorm, the heat of which was intense enough to scorch the sky. Only powerful fighters such as Kyoraku and Ukitake can resist it, but even then only indirectly. Even in its Shikai, Ryujin Jakka's power is enough to fight against the Shikai of two other captains simultaneously, both of whom had the reputation of being the strongest Captains in Soul Society while together. Unlike other Zanpakuto shown so far, resealing Ryujin Jakka does not deactivate any ability already used against an opponent, as seen when Yamamoto imprisons Aizen, Gin, and Kaname.
