9th Division: Vice Captain Hisagi Shuuhei

Brave and talented, if a bit rough around the edges. Shuuhei was a top-level student at the shinigami academy, being offered a ranked spot in the Gotei 13 before he even graduated. His courage was emphasized when a training raid he led as an upperclassman including Renji, Rukia, and Kira, interestingly went sour and Shuuhei ordered the rest of the trainees to flee while he attempted to hold several powerful Hollows off.
