Personality:
Sawami is a sensible person although she does not demonstrate it quite often, when bad times came, she tends to keep all her feelings inside so her division and friends don’t think she is weak but sometimes she just explodes in front of her close ones. The other possibility in her behavior is going in crisis, this happens when she’s not strong enough and someone she loves is dying or being hurt; that crisis leds her to use all her techniques in a desperate manner.
She is very affectionate with the people near her and therefore she will not allow that something bad happens to them, this was one of the reasons that she took for becoming a shinigami and this is the other reason for being dependent of some things and independent from others.
When it comes to a fight (where the ones she cares of are not present) she is very sadistic and this is because she loves fighting, that’s the reason for being in the 11 division.

Story

Sawami grew in district #42 of the Rukongai, she lived with an adoptive “sister” who worked hard every day so Sawami passed many time on her own; she didn’t have a lot of friends and used that time for training herself or just walking around observing the behavior of others. One day an accident happened and her sister died leaving her alone; when this happened, Sawami, decided to become stronger and for arriving to this objective she left the place were she lived and began to walk through the other districts until a day when she was in the forest she met with Zaraki and Yachiru; at a first view she was scared of them but time passed and she realized she felt happy and relaxed with them so she began to be more with them and followed them to such an extent than they decided to live together.
In a battle that was having Zaraki, Sawami was separated of them and when she saw she couldn’t find them the only option was to walk alone, again. In that course of time, she decided to become a shinigami and entered the academy; at the beginning it was a quite different world to her, but with the course of the months she met Renji (he was more advanced than her).
Renji decided to help her since he saw himself reflected in Sawami’s seek to become stronger; thanks to this they became good friends. When Sawami graduated, she was assigned to the 3rd division with Gin as captain; she respected him and it seemed that Gin accepted her; Sawami became stronger and because of her own personality she was assigned to the 11 division; nevertheless she never lost that good relation she had with Gin.
This big change of division brought her many things, at first when she saw that Zaraki was the captain is surprised and happy; but when they saw each other it seemed that Zaraki and Yachiru dis not deal with her like before. In order to demonstrate them that she had become stronger, she decided to fight with each member of the division; when she arrived to Yachiru after defeating everyone, Zaraki decided to accept her. The relation that they had returned to be strong again to such an extent that Sawami also calls her captain Ken-chan or Zaraki-kun.
Sawami met Ichigo when this one faces Zaraki and it seems to her a very interesting person, she wants to know more about him for being a human, so when he goes away she is someway disappointed; the good news are that when the Bound appeared, she requests permission to her captain to fight against them, he says she can go but what he doesn’t know is that what Sawami really wants is to meet again with Ichinose and ask him why he left the division leaving her alone. When she saw him again Sawami realized he is a totally different being and decides that she herself is the one who wants to kill him (but she doesn’t obtain it) this was the reason that led her to help Ichigo to win to the Bound.
Retaking the relation with Gin, when he goes away with Aizen, Sawami is disappointed, nevertheless Gin stays in contact with her in exchange for not revealing anything to anybody and she fulfills the agreement.
When they are creating the Arrancar, Gin asks her to come to Hueco Mundo and there is where she meets Grimmjow, since she sees him, Sawami feels a certain (big) attraction towards him and decides to be next to him without concerning the fact of leaving everything behind; nevertheless at that point she is assigned with the group of Hitsugaya to the investigation of Arrancar and has to move away from him.
At one of Grimmjow’s fights with Ichigo, everybody begins to realize something is happening among both of them but they don’t seem to worry about it.
When Inoue goes away to Hueco Mundo, Sawami goes with the group of Renji (not because she wanted to rescue Inoue, it was because she made a promise with Grimmjow about visiting him soon), nevertheless when arriving there; she disappears to be with Grimmjow and also because she has to talk with Aizen about her greatest wish, becoming an Arrancar; anyways this dream changes and she realizes that the high point were she can arrive is becoming a vizard. She talks with Grimmjow and after arguing about it he agrees but in order to achieve this objective he allies with Ruzen who helps Sawami to control her inner hollow

Relations.

-With the lieutenants: She has a good relationship with them, anyways most of them just say hi except for:
Renji: They are good friends and Sawami loves to untie his ponytail.
Kyra and Hisagi: She tends to bother them alot along with Okoi
Yachiru: they are like sisters
Ikkaku and Yumichika: loves to bother them by saying she is stronger than them but she considers them and the 11 division as her family
-With Captains: She has a good relationship with them but sometimes Tousen and Mayuri scare her
Unohana: She sees in her the mother she never had
Byakuya: She respects him a lot but plans to bother him someday and then ran for her life
Kyoraku and Ukitake: The fathers she never had, she is very confident with them and Unohana, when she has problems she resorts to them.
Hitsugaya: loves to bother him along with Okoi
Zaraki: (and the division): represent her family

With other:

Urahara and Okoi: they are always there to help her and giving advices; they become closer when she arrives at Karakura.
Okoi: She met her when she was little because tooru (her dog) was lost, Sawami found it and took care of it, then Okoi appeared and they became good friends. Okoi disappeared for a long time but when they met each other again, they become closer at the point of were Okoi is like a big sister for Sawami (although they don’t share many time together); they love to mess around Soul society.
Ichigo, Ishida, Chad and Inoue: they become good friends when Sawami goes to Karakura.
Ruzen: When Sawami was recollecting data about possible second effects on the real world because of Aizen’s incident (although she knew everything), she saw Ruzen talking with Shinji about Ichigo’s hollow, she stayed there listening to everything and the Ruzen noticed her presence, she explained to Sawami about it and made her promise not to say anything about her being a Vizard. In return, Sawami requested the help of Ruzen with her inner hollow.

Hueco Mundo
Aizen: She is confident with him but respects him a lot; on the other hand Aizen looks interested in a Shinigami that is in love with one of his creations so he doesn’t do anything to stop them, he just observes.
Espadas: She tries to get well with all of them; anyways she hates Noitora and Yammi as well as other; she loves to stay with Stark, Arroniro and Szayel Aporro when Grimmjow is busy, she doesn’t talk a lot with the others but she gets well with them.
Grimmjow: It was kind of love at first sight, with the passage of time they become more confident and they found a lot of attraction in their personalities. Sawami tries to be romantic sometimes; nevertheless Grimmjow doesn’t show his emotions very well and sometimes he hates those romantic things. The truth is that he can be very romantic when he wants and he would show his love in another way like protecting her or worrying about her.

Note: Okoi(krokun's o.c) and Ruzen (Caosgoth's o.c)
