What you will find described here is two things. First, you'll find in the first post a list of noteworthy characters, whose actions have affected the forum plot, and who for their actions are famous, infamous, or both. You will also find bounties on the heads of these characters. Defeating one of these characters in a DP thread (not necessarily killing them, just defeating them) will earn you the Ryo amount given with their name. Under the noteworthy RPCs post, that being this post here, you'll find a bingo book which lists off additional character names and bounties. So, below, here are notable characters.
Name: [Schultz Silverhult]
Current Status: [Missing In Action]
Brief Background: [Schultz Silverhult, the former Septima Espada of Las Noches under Sonken Kouhai, is an extremely high priority target after investigations within the Seireitei found that he was responsible for manipulating and sabotaging a negotiation meeting between factions from all three worlds (Human World, Soul Society, Hueco Mundo), which then resulted in the mass tri-world war called the Tridential Conflict. Though the war was eventually resolved peacefully, the amount of deaths was catastrophic, numbering in the thousands, or tens of thousands. Schultz Silverhult is currently wanted for a high price in all three worlds. He was last seen doing battle against Squad 6 Captain Sozen Kuchiki, against whom he utilized the ability known as Saigo No Houmen. Thus, while it is unknown whether or not he survived, the bounty remains active due to a body having never been found. If he lives today, he is presumably in the human world, without spiritual powers.]
Basic Powers: [As an Espada, Schultz was known to be able to command all five senses from afar with basic illusions. While the illusions themselves were extremely weak and easy to break, thus allowing him to force them upon enemies without meeting any other conditions of effect, they were potent because he would often use them from the shadows, so that enemies would be unaware an illusionist was manipulating them at all, and thus would not know to break the illusion.]
Bounty: [150,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kaen Youji]
Current Status: [Active in Soul Society as a member of Squad 7]
Brief Background: [Kaen is a noble of the minor house of 'Youji,' Kaen is the current Lieutenant of Squad 7 in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads situated in the Seireitei. He is known for his constant appearances not only in wartime, but against enemies of numerous other factions. He is notable for having killed a host of mid level Arrancar and Quincy, and for having gone toe to toe with a Captain, Shade Kawada. He is currently wanted by Las Noches and Xcution due to the threat he poses.]
Basic Powers: [Kaen's ability has been studied in-depth. He is a fire user whose Zanpakuto produces extremely hot flames, with the additional property of solidification. This allows Kaen to not only manipulate the fire he creates, but shape it into actual physical constructs such as a box, a platform, limbs, or more. The versatility of his ability has made him extremely deadly in released combat, especially when combined with what has been observed as immense physical prowess. Kaen Youji is easily one of the top Lieutenants and Soul Reapers in Seireitei, especially when it comes to being a brawler. Engaging him in melee combat is never advised. Kaen is known to have achieved Bankai, though the effects of that Bankai are not entirely certain, outside of being able to create an enormous flaming dragon.]
Bounty: [85,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kazura Uzaki]
Current Status: [Active in Karakura Town, Japan]
Brief Background: [Kazura Uzaki, son of rich entrepreneurs in the human world, is the current CEO of a corporation known as Uzaki Enterprises, which at first appears to be a technological manufacturer for the non-spiritual, but when examined more closely turns out to be a manufacturer of technologies and arms for those of spiritual power and knowledge. His stated goal is for humans to be able to defend themselves against spiritual threats, and thus far he has successfully recruited a large number of low and mid level Fullbringers to his cause. He is presently wanted by Xcution, as a human world competitor.]
Basic Powers: [From basic observation by spies, it appears he is able to telekinetically command the technologies he has built around his own body, but no further powers beyond this have yet been discovered or revealed. He has grown quite powerful, however, and spies have classified him as at least the same level as a Soul Society Vice Captain.]
Bounty: [140,000 Ryo]
Name: [Jin Yamada]
Current Status: [Missing In Action]
Brief Background: [Jin Yamada is the leader of the Bount, a race of vampiric beings who feed on the souls of spirits and the spiritually aware in order to gain strength and immortality. Because of their monstrous nature, they were condemned to extermination by the Soul Society. Seeking revenge for this, Jin Yamada assembled numerous Bount to his cause of undermining the Thirteen Court Guard Squads. Jin Yamada is responsible for the defeats and deaths of numerous agents of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads and even some agents of the human world organization, Xcution. He is also responsible for two large scale attacks on the Seireitei itself, one of which destroyed a weapon called the Big Soul Cannon. He was once employed as a mercenary by the King of Las Noches, but has since abandoned his contract. Jin Yamada is wanted by Xcution, Las Noches, and Seireitei for his actions against all of them. He was last seen facing off against a monster employed by Satsujun, and though he is presumed dead by many, the bounty on his head remains active because a body was never found.]
Basic Powers: [Jin Yamada is capable of using what are called the "True Bount" techniques, a branch of powers gifted to him by his Bount ancestors and predecessors, and which designate him as the alpha of all Bount. He is thus able to shoot extremely potent lightning from his fingertips, and has been observed to be able to create a double of himself, or perhaps multiple clones. On more than one occasion he was seen playing with yoyos, but it was never confirmed that he had powers relating to them. The last time he was engaged by a Soul Reaper, Jin's powers were known to involve a lightning based doll.]
Bounty: [200,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kyomei Kuchiki]
Current Status: [Active in Soul Society as Captain of Kido Corps]
Brief Background: [Kyomei Kuchiki is an adopted member of the esteemed Kuchiki nobility in the Soul Society. He is the current Captain of the Kido Corps, and is known to have encountered and destroyed many Arrancar, Quincy, and Hollows. He is notable for having been one of a select few to break into Las Noches and attempt to steal the Hougyoku from the King, Sonken Kouhai. Though this attempt ended in failure, the amount of destruction and devastation caused by Kyomei Kuchiki was enough to earn him the King's scorn. He is currently wanted by Las Noches for his efforts against them. He is currently active as the Kido Corps Captain in the Seireitei.]
Basic Powers: [Kyomei is known to lack a Zanpakuto. Unlike most Soul Reapers, who have a sword that they can release, Kyomei instead has innately powerful reiatsu. It is theorized that his reiatsu was so powerful that it literally blocked a Zanpakuto from forming in his soul. Thus, what is dangerous about Kyomei is his mastery of Kido. He is a brilliant Kido tactician and user, capable of some of the most destructive feats of any Soul Reaper. He is known to be able to imbue elemental abilities into his Kido to make them even more devastating. Spell combat against Kyomei is never advised.]
Bounty: [110,000 Ryo]
Name: [Zackary Jensen]
Current Status: [Active, Whereabouts unknown]
Brief Background: [Not much information was possible to collect for informants. Zackary Jensen is an assassin hired by Xcution within recent years. Since his hire, he has been linked to numerous terminations of targets of all profiles, and from all worlds. Though he has yet to be linked to any deaths at the level of a Seireitei Captain or higher, it is hypothesized that Xcution is training him in the hopes that his strength will one day be on that level. He was last seen in Seoul, South Korea, though for what purpose is unknown. He is wanted by Las Noches, Seireitei, and the Vandenreich for his assassinations.]
Basic Powers: [Zack is capable of using all basic Fullbringer functions, and is very proficient with firearms. Otherwise, not much is known about him. He has been seen disappearing and reappearing regularly when in combat, leading many to believe that he possesses some sort of teleportation ability. The details of his powers have not, however, been confirmed by any faction informants.]
Bounty: [75,000 Ryo]
Name: [C, The Cardinal, Caesar]
Current Status: [Active as Sternritter "C" of the Vandenreich]
Brief Background: [Caesar, a member of the Quincy empire called the Vandenreich, is a fanatical devotee of the Vandenreich Leader, who is often called "The Emperor." His primary motivation is spreading the word of the Emperor, usually by violent means. Caesar is responsible for thousands of deaths in the human world and Soul Society, and for causing devastating climate change to horrific Winter in more than one extremely populous area. His battles have often led to mass destruction everywhere, and he is also responsible for numerous invasions of the Soul Society, wherein he has killed hundreds of Soul Reapers. Caesar is wanted in all three worlds as one of the most prominent figures of the Vandenreich.]
Basic Powers: [Caesar is capable of firing extremely fast arrows with terrific precision, protecting his body with an extremely high level defensive technique called Blut, and moving at immeasurable speeds exceeding what nearly any Seireitei Captain can do. However, what makes him most dangerous is his ability to read words from the Vandenreich indoctrination manual, Seine Pracht, and turn these words to reality in the form of arrows. Caesar, doing this, has been seen summoning fireballs, erecting enormous palaces of ice, and brainwashing dozens of enemies. Because of his exact aim and aggressive nature, long range combat against Caesar is not recommended.]
Bounty: [260,000 Ryo]
Name: [Takashi Kuchiki]
Current Status: [Las Noches Left Hand]
Brief Background: [Takashi Kuchiki, the former Lieutenant of Squad 11, is a traitor to the Soul Society. Once a protege of Sozen Kuchiki himself, Takashi Kuchiki later befriended Squad 12 Captain Azumi Kasumi'Oji and Squad 11 Captain Iro Kuchiki, both of whom he tricked for their resources. Upon gaining access to the resources of these Captains, plus those offered by Sozen Kuchiki, Takashi was successful in mounting a high powered attack on the Seireitei which resulted in mass building destruction, and most importantly served as a distraction while he used Negacion technology to steal the Seki Seki walls of the Seireitei. He sent these walls to Las Noches and Sonken Kouhai, whom he now works for as left hand. He is also considered responsible for the genocide of the Shiba Family. Thus, Takashi Kuchiki, for his heinous crime, is wanted by Soul Society.]
Basic Powers: [Takashi Kuchiki has very few powers. Though he possesses some of the formidable Kuchiki Melee Hana, he is predominantly a physical enemy, whose prowess with the sword is matched only by incredible speed and physical strength. Though he holds no truly "unique" powers, Takashi is still a force to be reckoned with, and those who try to bring him in should beware close combat. Lately, it has been speculated that he is receiving martial training from Kuroi Naito.]
Bounty: [350,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kuroi Naito]
Current Status: [Active as an Envainar of Las Noches]
Brief Background: [Kuroi Naito is possibly one of the most dangerous individuals in the three worlds. He has defeated countless high profile enemies from all factions. While Kuroi is well known to have let many of his enemies live simply so that they would one day return to try and fight him again, he has also killed any that he deemed useless. His operations in all three worlds have led to the deaths of tens of thousands of people. Kuroi once destroyed an entire small island to achieve his objectives. He has invaded the Soul Society over a dozen times, and is responsible for property damage, loss of information, and Soul Reaper death and injury on a scale that no other individual can compare to. Kuroi has been linked to the deaths of at least six Seireitei Captains, and several Lieutenants, as well as hundreds, if not thousands of seated officers and unseated officers. He is responsible for the humiliating defeats of opponents such as Squad 7 Captain Enma, Bount Leader Jin Yamada, Squad 3 Former Captain Ryuu Usagi, and more. Even in his own faction of Las Noches, Kuroi has defeated almost all of his fellow Espada in combat simply to prove he is on top. Many theorize that he is responsible for the deaths of two former Cuarta Espada, Baocao and Sesshomaru. Kuroi has killed hundreds of Quincy both Vandenreich and not, crippled the entire Bount race, and repeatedly attacked the esteemed Kuchiki nobility. Kuroi was the longest serving Espada of the current King of Las Noches, Sonken Kouhai, and is known to have once refused to lend his services to the creator of the current Las Noches hierarchy, Soul Society traitor Azeru Cho. Kuroi is currently active as one of Sonken Kouhai's five Envainar, and as a temporary mercenary under direct command of the human world faction Xcution's leader, Satsujun. It is currently hypothesized that Kuroi has been responsible for over two dozen assassinations since this new assignment. He is wanted in all three worlds by all sorts of factions for his work over the years.]
Basic Powers: [Kuroi is an extremely proficient swordsman and martial artist, and has, as far as records indicate, never been bested in melee combat. Once, he was seen to take down multiple Captains simultaneously with his sword skills alone. His speed seems limitless, and his powers of analysis and strategy are virtually unparalleled, to the point where he can easily deduce the best method of attack and defense against many foes simultaneously, and then execute it without a second thought. He has been seen to emerge from huge battles against high profile opponents totally unscathed. Additionally, Kuroi is a master of Cero, and can charge his Cero in a second, and then fire it. His Cero is larger than the average apartment complex. He is also master of many custom Cero of tremendous size, power, and varying effects. Released, Kuroi is known to be able to slow down his opponents drastically, enhance his Hierro exponentially, and create dozens of swords from seemingly nothing, as well as power through any defense. It has been considered for a long time that Kuroi may have an even greater power than his release, but this has not been confirmed by sources. As of right now, Kuroi is perhaps the most wanted Arrancar alive today.]
Bounty: [900,000 Ryo]
Name: [Anarchy]
Current Status: [Active in Human World]
Brief Background: [Anarchy is a high ranking mercenary who is rumored to have a huge stake in the black market. He has been known to ally with various other criminals and organizations from time to time. He is wanted by Soul Society for the sale of illegal contraband, and by Xcution for interfering with their operations more than once.]
Basic Powers: [Nothing is known on Anarchy's powers.]
Bounty: [150,000 Ryo]
Name: [Asmokon Masurao]
Current Status: [Active member of Xcution]
Brief Background: [Asmokon is a free Quincy who works for Xcution. He has been a constant thorn in the side of the Vandenreich, and has derailed many of their operations. He is also an assassin for Xcution, and has been suspected of being linked to numerous political assassinations and high profile operations. He is currently wanted in the human world for his crimes, but not by any particular organization.]
Basic Powers: [Asmokon has demonstrated being capable of firing fast, powerful arrows, as many Quincy can do. He is also known to be able to take advantage of his blood, and has unique spells associated with Ginto. He can perform very high speed movements, and accurate shooting. He is considered roughly the level of a mid tier Captain in Soul Society, and it is recommended to engage him in a group rather than one on one.]
Bounty: [180,000 Ryo]
Name: [Sozen Kuchiki]
Current Status: [Active as Soul Society Captain of Squad 6]
Brief Background: [Sozen Kuchiki is the Head of the Kuchiki nobility, and the Captain of Squad 6 in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads. He is noteworthy for many reasons, the first of which being that under his reign, the Kuchiki Family's power expanded exponentially, going from having only one Kuchiki Captain to having five squad Captain seats now occupied by Kuchiki clansmen. He is also regarded as the most powerful political figurehead in the Soul Society, and is said to even have total control of the Central 46. Most impressive, however, is his record in combat. Prior to becoming a Captain, he was the Lieutenant of Squad 7. Once nicknamed "The Demon," Sozen had a kill count of over eight hundred as a Lieutenant alone, and was said to have never once failed a mission. As a Captain, his record is even more impressive. Not only have thousands fallen to his blade, but he has defeated numerous high profile opponents, and highly damaged all major enemy factions. He is known for his involvement in the three world war known as the Tridential Conflict, and for his involvement in the War of Angels. Most noteworthy of Sozen are those he has defeated or killed. Sozen is responsible for killing the leader of the Vaizard company, Soul Reapers who can use Hollow powers, Zouma Santeku, and then for subsequently murdering the remaining Vizards through genocide. He is also known for killing three of the mighty Ogatago generals during the Tridential Conflict, and for defeating two Stern Ritters, C (Caesar) and B (Baal) during the War of Angels. Sozen has also defeated former Septima Espada Schultz Silverhult, a feat which may have resulted in the latter's death, Cuarta Espada Kalte Ignus, and even Segunda Espada Kuroi Naito. Of late, he is rumored to have killed Primera Espada Adalo De-Mona. He is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of enemies from Xcution, Las Noches, the Vandenreich, and more. He is wanted by multiple factions in all three worlds for his actions. He is currently active as the leader of a defensive task force in Soul Society, the Head of the Kuchiki Family, and the Captain of Squad 6. Some have hypothesized he is next in line as Captain Commander, but Sozen has denied all rumors of this.]
Basic Powers: [Sozen is a brilliant swordsman capable of going toe to toe even with the Segunda Espada, Kuroi Naito. His strategic cunning and battle experience have won him many fights. Sozen is primarily known not only for ruthless strategies, but cunning ones as well. He will often achieve his desired result not only through tricking or trapping his foes, but through psychological manipulation and mental warfare. He is also extremely well versed in highly destructive Kido spells, particularly the Destructive Hana spells of the Kuchiki family. Once, Sozen was seen wiping out an entire Vandenreich palace with a tsunami of water that he generated. No one has faced Sozen extensively enough to fully analyze his abilities, but he seems to possess control of the color red, and has been seen forming blades out of it. Thus, he has gained the title, "the Crimson King." Whether or not that is all he can do with red remains uncertain.]
Bounty: [1,100,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kayneth Wayne]
Current Status: [Active in human world]
Brief Background: [Kayneth Wayne is a young human, and the CEO of Wayne Inc. His company, on the exterior, is known to manufacture and sell weapons to military establishments and foreign countries. He is also a business tycoon who owns huge portions of stock in more than half of the world's most major corporations. He also runs a large underground criminal organization which smuggles weapons into and out of the black market. He is considered dangerous because of the size of his operation, and the mercenaries he has succeeded in hiring to his cause. Of all the criminals in the underworld, Kayneth Wayne has the most powerful human world back-up.]
Basic Powers: [Kayneth Wayne, though he runs a large empire, is thought to possess no powers of his own.]
Bounty: [200,000 Ryo]
Name: [Ryunosuke Hamada]
Current Status: [Active in Las Noches as the Segunda Espada]
Brief Background: [Ryuunosuke, formerly the Cuarta Espada, is now the Segunda Espada of Las Noches under the King, Sonken Kouhai. He is known as someone who has fought and wounded high level Captains, and is also suspected of espionage and manipulating of events in Soul Society. He is one of several Espada who staged a large scale invasion to the Soul Society of late. Besides the new Primera, Ryuunosuke is now considered the strongest Espada, having replaced long standing veteran Kuroi Naito, who was promoted to a higher position in Las Noches.]
Basic Powers: [Ryuunosuke has a massive reiatsu strength and a large amount of reiatsu. He is capable of spamming high level spells and of releasing massive, powerful attacks. Though he lacks a Zanpakuto, he makes up for it with abilities such as being able to tame the reiatsu of others and create his own weapons out of highly destructive material. He is considered one of the most dangerous Espada to emerge in years not because of his power, but because of his matching cunning. While most of the Espada are dangerous in combat, until Ryuunosuke appeared only Kuroi was powerful outside of it. Now, with many connections and collusions, Ryuunosuke is a mighty new Espada.]
Bounty: [160,000 Ryo]
Name: [Grimoire Acero]
Current Status: [Active in Las Noches as the Primera Envainar]
Brief Background: [The Envainar. Ten demons (or "Akki") from Hell sent to Sonken Kouhai by Lucifer himself as a gift. The purpose is as of yet unknown. The Envainar, also called "the sheathes," are meant for two things. First, each is assigned to an Espada, and is meant to "sheathe" that Espada, should said Arrancar go out of whack. But, most importantly, their goal is to act as sheathes on the power of other factions. If the Espada prove unable to fight against other factions, then Sonken Kouhai will send the Envainar to do it. Just sending one is the same as damning the enemy to encounter a natural disaster, and Grimoire Acero is the strongest one. Thus far, he has had only two major appearances. In one, he was sent to chase after Bount Leader Jin Yamada. At that time, the entire city between Jin and Grimoire was turned to dust. The second appearance was in Soul Society, where Grimoire brutalized Squad 11 Captain Iro Kuchiki, and left him alive, but so disfigured that he was not even recognizable as human form. It took weeks for Iro to recover afterward. Grimoire's appearance signifies utter defeat in most battles, and he is regarded as the strongest creature in Sonken Kouhai's army. An enforcer who cannot be stopped. Grimoire Acero, a natural disaster. Wanted in all three worlds simply because all factions fear Grimoire. Last seen after defeating Iro Kuchiki, and not seen since. Because of his ferocious combat style, proper images of him cannot be taken, and what is provided is only a rough sketch from an artist.]
Basic Powers: [Records indicate that Grimoire is extremely fast and extremely strong, and has tremendous reiatsu strength. Most Captains have trouble keeping up with Grimoire. He also has a unique mastery of swordsmanship which allows him to seemingly transfigure his blades into flames, simply from the fluidity of the movement. Anyone that fights Grimoire in melee combat will not be cut, but rather disintegrated into ashes or dust. Furthermore, he seems to possess a power that allows him to break down and absorb reiatsu based constructs, attacks, or abilities, including Bankai. This is superior even to the Bankai stealing power of the Vandenreich. The full extent of Grimoire's abilities is unknown, but he has great physical ability, reiatsu strength, a virtually impenetrable defensive skin, and the ability to attack nonstop. Fighting Grimoire at all is never recommended.]
Bounty: [1,000,000 Ryo]
Name: [Anastasia Kuchiki & Raion Souretsu]
Current Status: [Active in Soul Society as Soul Food Editor and Squad 9 Captain]
Brief Background: [These two aren't known for their war efforts, but for gambling. As a duo, they do quite like to gamble, and unfortunately they're not very good at it. They always lose, and continue to borrow money to gamble more, and then lose that too. With their current lifestyle, they're in quite a lot of debt. You might even say infinity Ryo debt. They're wanted by clients in all three worlds for the money they owe. Bring them in and there will be a reward.]
Basic Powers: [Powers don't matter here. They're in debt for gambling. Honestly, just drug their sake and you're set.]
Bounty: [60,000 Ryo]
Name: [Schultz Silverhult]
Current Status: [Missing In Action]
Brief Background: [Schultz Silverhult, the former Septima Espada of Las Noches under Sonken Kouhai, is an extremely high priority target after investigations within the Seireitei found that he was responsible for manipulating and sabotaging a negotiation meeting between factions from all three worlds (Human World, Soul Society, Hueco Mundo), which then resulted in the mass tri-world war called the Tridential Conflict. Though the war was eventually resolved peacefully, the amount of deaths was catastrophic, numbering in the thousands, or tens of thousands. Schultz Silverhult is currently wanted for a high price in all three worlds. He was last seen doing battle against Squad 6 Captain Sozen Kuchiki, against whom he utilized the ability known as Saigo No Houmen. Thus, while it is unknown whether or not he survived, the bounty remains active due to a body having never been found. If he lives today, he is presumably in the human world, without spiritual powers.]
Basic Powers: [As an Espada, Schultz was known to be able to command all five senses from afar with basic illusions. While the illusions themselves were extremely weak and easy to break, thus allowing him to force them upon enemies without meeting any other conditions of effect, they were potent because he would often use them from the shadows, so that enemies would be unaware an illusionist was manipulating them at all, and thus would not know to break the illusion.]
Bounty: [150,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kaen Youji]
Current Status: [Active in Soul Society as a member of Squad 7]

He is notable for having killed a host of mid level Arrancar and Quincy, and for having gone toe to toe with a Captain, Shade Kawada. He is currently wanted by Las Noches and Xcution due to the threat he poses.]
Basic Powers: [Kaen's ability has been studied in-depth. He is a fire user whose Zanpakuto produces extremely hot flames, with the additional property of solidification. This allows Kaen to not only manipulate the fire he creates, but shape it into actual physical constructs such as a box, a platform, limbs, or more. The versatility of his ability has made him extremely deadly in released combat, especially when combined with what has been observed as immense physical prowess. Kaen Youji is easily one of the top Lieutenants and Soul Reapers in Seireitei, especially when it comes to being a brawler. Engaging him in melee combat is never advised. Kaen is known to have achieved Bankai, though the effects of that Bankai are not entirely certain, outside of being able to create an enormous flaming dragon.]
Bounty: [85,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kazura Uzaki]
Current Status: [Active in Karakura Town, Japan]
Brief Background: [Kazura Uzaki, son of rich entrepreneurs in the human world, is the current CEO of a corporation known as Uzaki Enterprises, which at first appears to be a technological manufacturer for the non-spiritual, but when examined more closely turns out to be a manufacturer of technologies and arms for those of spiritual power and knowledge. His stated goal is for humans to be able to defend themselves against spiritual threats, and thus far he has successfully recruited a large number of low and mid level Fullbringers to his cause. He is presently wanted by Xcution, as a human world competitor.]
Basic Powers: [From basic observation by spies, it appears he is able to telekinetically command the technologies he has built around his own body, but no further powers beyond this have yet been discovered or revealed. He has grown quite powerful, however, and spies have classified him as at least the same level as a Soul Society Vice Captain.]

Basic Powers: [Jin Yamada is capable of using what are called the "True Bount" techniques, a branch of powers gifted to him by his Bount ancestors and predecessors, and which designate him as the alpha of all Bount. He is thus able to shoot extremely potent lightning from his fingertips, and has been observed to be able to create a double of himself, or perhaps multiple clones. On more than one occasion he was seen playing with yoyos, but it was never confirmed that he had powers relating to them. The last time he was engaged by a Soul Reaper, Jin's powers were known to involve a lightning based doll.]

Name: [Kyomei Kuchiki]
Current Status: [Active in Soul Society as Captain of Kido Corps]
Brief Background: [Kyomei Kuchiki is an adopted member of the esteemed Kuchiki nobility in the Soul Society. He is the current Captain of the Kido Corps, and is known to have encountered and destroyed many Arrancar, Quincy, and Hollows.

Name: [Zackary Jensen]
Current Status: [Active, Whereabouts unknown]
Brief Background: [Not much information was possible to collect for informants. Zackary Jensen is an assassin hired by Xcution within recent years.

Though he has yet to be linked to any deaths at the level of a Seireitei Captain or higher, it is hypothesized that Xcution is training him in the hopes that his strength will one day be on that level.

Bounty: [75,000 Ryo]
Name: [C, The Cardinal, Caesar]
Current Status: [Active as Sternritter "C" of the Vandenreich]
Brief Background: [Caesar, a member of the Quincy empire called the Vandenreich, is a fanatical devotee of the Vandenreich Leader, who is often called "The Emperor." His primary motivation is spreading the word of the Emperor, usually by violent means. Caesar is responsible for thousands of deaths in the human world and Soul Society, and for causing devastating climate change to horrific Winter in more than one extremely populous area. His battles have often led to mass destruction everywhere, and he is also responsible for numerous invasions of the Soul Society, wherein he has killed hundreds of Soul Reapers. Caesar is wanted in all three worlds as one of the most prominent figures of the Vandenreich.]
Basic Powers: [Caesar is capable of firing extremely fast arrows with terrific precision, protecting his body with an extremely high level defensive technique called Blut, and moving at immeasurable speeds exceeding what nearly any Seireitei Captain can do. However, what makes him most dangerous is his ability to read words from the Vandenreich indoctrination manual, Seine Pracht, and turn these words to reality in the form of arrows. Caesar, doing this, has been seen summoning fireballs, erecting enormous palaces of ice, and brainwashing dozens of enemies. Because of his exact aim and aggressive nature, long range combat against Caesar is not recommended.]
Bounty: [260,000 Ryo]
Name: [Takashi Kuchiki]
Current Status: [Las Noches Left Hand]
Brief Background: [Takashi Kuchiki, the former Lieutenant of Squad 11, is a traitor to the Soul Society. Once a protege of Sozen Kuchiki himself, Takashi Kuchiki later befriended Squad 12 Captain Azumi Kasumi'Oji and Squad 11 Captain Iro Kuchiki, both of whom he tricked for their resources. Upon gaining access to the resources of these Captains, plus those offered by Sozen Kuchiki, Takashi was successful in mounting a high powered attack on the Seireitei which resulted in mass building destruction, and most importantly served as a distraction while he used Negacion technology to steal the Seki Seki walls of the Seireitei. He sent these walls to Las Noches and Sonken Kouhai, whom he now works for as left hand. He is also considered responsible for the genocide of the Shiba Family. Thus, Takashi Kuchiki, for his heinous crime, is wanted by Soul Society.]
Basic Powers: [Takashi Kuchiki has very few powers. Though he possesses some of the formidable Kuchiki Melee Hana, he is predominantly a physical enemy, whose prowess with the sword is matched only by incredible speed and physical strength. Though he holds no truly "unique" powers, Takashi is still a force to be reckoned with, and those who try to bring him in should beware close combat. Lately, it has been speculated that he is receiving martial training from Kuroi Naito.]
Bounty: [350,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kuroi Naito]
Current Status: [Active as an Envainar of Las Noches]
Brief Background: [Kuroi Naito is possibly one of the most dangerous individuals in the three worlds. He has defeated countless high profile enemies from all factions. While Kuroi is well known to have let many of his enemies live simply so that they would one day return to try and fight him again, he has also killed any that he deemed useless. His operations in all three worlds have led to the deaths of tens of thousands of people. Kuroi once destroyed an entire small island to achieve his objectives. He has invaded the Soul Society over a dozen times, and is responsible for property damage, loss of information, and Soul Reaper death and injury on a scale that no other individual can compare to. Kuroi has been linked to the deaths of at least six Seireitei Captains, and several Lieutenants, as well as hundreds, if not thousands of seated officers and unseated officers. He is responsible for the humiliating defeats of opponents such as Squad 7 Captain Enma, Bount Leader Jin Yamada, Squad 3 Former Captain Ryuu Usagi, and more. Even in his own faction of Las Noches, Kuroi has defeated almost all of his fellow Espada in combat simply to prove he is on top. Many theorize that he is responsible for the deaths of two former Cuarta Espada, Baocao and Sesshomaru. Kuroi has killed hundreds of Quincy both Vandenreich and not, crippled the entire Bount race, and repeatedly attacked the esteemed Kuchiki nobility. Kuroi was the longest serving Espada of the current King of Las Noches, Sonken Kouhai, and is known to have once refused to lend his services to the creator of the current Las Noches hierarchy, Soul Society traitor Azeru Cho. Kuroi is currently active as one of Sonken Kouhai's five Envainar, and as a temporary mercenary under direct command of the human world faction Xcution's leader, Satsujun. It is currently hypothesized that Kuroi has been responsible for over two dozen assassinations since this new assignment. He is wanted in all three worlds by all sorts of factions for his work over the years.]
Basic Powers: [Kuroi is an extremely proficient swordsman and martial artist, and has, as far as records indicate, never been bested in melee combat. Once, he was seen to take down multiple Captains simultaneously with his sword skills alone. His speed seems limitless, and his powers of analysis and strategy are virtually unparalleled, to the point where he can easily deduce the best method of attack and defense against many foes simultaneously, and then execute it without a second thought. He has been seen to emerge from huge battles against high profile opponents totally unscathed. Additionally, Kuroi is a master of Cero, and can charge his Cero in a second, and then fire it. His Cero is larger than the average apartment complex. He is also master of many custom Cero of tremendous size, power, and varying effects. Released, Kuroi is known to be able to slow down his opponents drastically, enhance his Hierro exponentially, and create dozens of swords from seemingly nothing, as well as power through any defense. It has been considered for a long time that Kuroi may have an even greater power than his release, but this has not been confirmed by sources. As of right now, Kuroi is perhaps the most wanted Arrancar alive today.]
Bounty: [900,000 Ryo]
Name: [Anarchy]
Current Status: [Active in Human World]
Brief Background: [Anarchy is a high ranking mercenary who is rumored to have a huge stake in the black market. He has been known to ally with various other criminals and organizations from time to time. He is wanted by Soul Society for the sale of illegal contraband, and by Xcution for interfering with their operations more than once.]
Basic Powers: [Nothing is known on Anarchy's powers.]
Bounty: [150,000 Ryo]
Name: [Asmokon Masurao]
Current Status: [Active member of Xcution]
Brief Background: [Asmokon is a free Quincy who works for Xcution. He has been a constant thorn in the side of the Vandenreich, and has derailed many of their operations. He is also an assassin for Xcution, and has been suspected of being linked to numerous political assassinations and high profile operations. He is currently wanted in the human world for his crimes, but not by any particular organization.]
Basic Powers: [Asmokon has demonstrated being capable of firing fast, powerful arrows, as many Quincy can do. He is also known to be able to take advantage of his blood, and has unique spells associated with Ginto. He can perform very high speed movements, and accurate shooting. He is considered roughly the level of a mid tier Captain in Soul Society, and it is recommended to engage him in a group rather than one on one.]
Bounty: [180,000 Ryo]
Name: [Sozen Kuchiki]
Current Status: [Active as Soul Society Captain of Squad 6]
Brief Background: [Sozen Kuchiki is the Head of the Kuchiki nobility, and the Captain of Squad 6 in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads. He is noteworthy for many reasons, the first of which being that under his reign, the Kuchiki Family's power expanded exponentially, going from having only one Kuchiki Captain to having five squad Captain seats now occupied by Kuchiki clansmen. He is also regarded as the most powerful political figurehead in the Soul Society, and is said to even have total control of the Central 46. Most impressive, however, is his record in combat. Prior to becoming a Captain, he was the Lieutenant of Squad 7. Once nicknamed "The Demon," Sozen had a kill count of over eight hundred as a Lieutenant alone, and was said to have never once failed a mission. As a Captain, his record is even more impressive. Not only have thousands fallen to his blade, but he has defeated numerous high profile opponents, and highly damaged all major enemy factions. He is known for his involvement in the three world war known as the Tridential Conflict, and for his involvement in the War of Angels. Most noteworthy of Sozen are those he has defeated or killed. Sozen is responsible for killing the leader of the Vaizard company, Soul Reapers who can use Hollow powers, Zouma Santeku, and then for subsequently murdering the remaining Vizards through genocide. He is also known for killing three of the mighty Ogatago generals during the Tridential Conflict, and for defeating two Stern Ritters, C (Caesar) and B (Baal) during the War of Angels. Sozen has also defeated former Septima Espada Schultz Silverhult, a feat which may have resulted in the latter's death, Cuarta Espada Kalte Ignus, and even Segunda Espada Kuroi Naito. Of late, he is rumored to have killed Primera Espada Adalo De-Mona. He is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of enemies from Xcution, Las Noches, the Vandenreich, and more. He is wanted by multiple factions in all three worlds for his actions. He is currently active as the leader of a defensive task force in Soul Society, the Head of the Kuchiki Family, and the Captain of Squad 6. Some have hypothesized he is next in line as Captain Commander, but Sozen has denied all rumors of this.]
Basic Powers: [Sozen is a brilliant swordsman capable of going toe to toe even with the Segunda Espada, Kuroi Naito. His strategic cunning and battle experience have won him many fights. Sozen is primarily known not only for ruthless strategies, but cunning ones as well. He will often achieve his desired result not only through tricking or trapping his foes, but through psychological manipulation and mental warfare. He is also extremely well versed in highly destructive Kido spells, particularly the Destructive Hana spells of the Kuchiki family. Once, Sozen was seen wiping out an entire Vandenreich palace with a tsunami of water that he generated. No one has faced Sozen extensively enough to fully analyze his abilities, but he seems to possess control of the color red, and has been seen forming blades out of it. Thus, he has gained the title, "the Crimson King." Whether or not that is all he can do with red remains uncertain.]
Bounty: [1,100,000 Ryo]
Name: [Kayneth Wayne]
Current Status: [Active in human world]
Brief Background: [Kayneth Wayne is a young human, and the CEO of Wayne Inc. His company, on the exterior, is known to manufacture and sell weapons to military establishments and foreign countries. He is also a business tycoon who owns huge portions of stock in more than half of the world's most major corporations. He also runs a large underground criminal organization which smuggles weapons into and out of the black market. He is considered dangerous because of the size of his operation, and the mercenaries he has succeeded in hiring to his cause. Of all the criminals in the underworld, Kayneth Wayne has the most powerful human world back-up.]
Basic Powers: [Kayneth Wayne, though he runs a large empire, is thought to possess no powers of his own.]
Bounty: [200,000 Ryo]
Name: [Ryunosuke Hamada]
Current Status: [Active in Las Noches as the Segunda Espada]
Brief Background: [Ryuunosuke, formerly the Cuarta Espada, is now the Segunda Espada of Las Noches under the King, Sonken Kouhai. He is known as someone who has fought and wounded high level Captains, and is also suspected of espionage and manipulating of events in Soul Society. He is one of several Espada who staged a large scale invasion to the Soul Society of late. Besides the new Primera, Ryuunosuke is now considered the strongest Espada, having replaced long standing veteran Kuroi Naito, who was promoted to a higher position in Las Noches.]
Basic Powers: [Ryuunosuke has a massive reiatsu strength and a large amount of reiatsu. He is capable of spamming high level spells and of releasing massive, powerful attacks. Though he lacks a Zanpakuto, he makes up for it with abilities such as being able to tame the reiatsu of others and create his own weapons out of highly destructive material. He is considered one of the most dangerous Espada to emerge in years not because of his power, but because of his matching cunning. While most of the Espada are dangerous in combat, until Ryuunosuke appeared only Kuroi was powerful outside of it. Now, with many connections and collusions, Ryuunosuke is a mighty new Espada.]
Bounty: [160,000 Ryo]
Name: [Grimoire Acero]
Current Status: [Active in Las Noches as the Primera Envainar]
Brief Background: [The Envainar. Ten demons (or "Akki") from Hell sent to Sonken Kouhai by Lucifer himself as a gift. The purpose is as of yet unknown. The Envainar, also called "the sheathes," are meant for two things. First, each is assigned to an Espada, and is meant to "sheathe" that Espada, should said Arrancar go out of whack. But, most importantly, their goal is to act as sheathes on the power of other factions. If the Espada prove unable to fight against other factions, then Sonken Kouhai will send the Envainar to do it. Just sending one is the same as damning the enemy to encounter a natural disaster, and Grimoire Acero is the strongest one. Thus far, he has had only two major appearances. In one, he was sent to chase after Bount Leader Jin Yamada. At that time, the entire city between Jin and Grimoire was turned to dust. The second appearance was in Soul Society, where Grimoire brutalized Squad 11 Captain Iro Kuchiki, and left him alive, but so disfigured that he was not even recognizable as human form. It took weeks for Iro to recover afterward. Grimoire's appearance signifies utter defeat in most battles, and he is regarded as the strongest creature in Sonken Kouhai's army. An enforcer who cannot be stopped. Grimoire Acero, a natural disaster. Wanted in all three worlds simply because all factions fear Grimoire. Last seen after defeating Iro Kuchiki, and not seen since. Because of his ferocious combat style, proper images of him cannot be taken, and what is provided is only a rough sketch from an artist.]
Basic Powers: [Records indicate that Grimoire is extremely fast and extremely strong, and has tremendous reiatsu strength. Most Captains have trouble keeping up with Grimoire. He also has a unique mastery of swordsmanship which allows him to seemingly transfigure his blades into flames, simply from the fluidity of the movement. Anyone that fights Grimoire in melee combat will not be cut, but rather disintegrated into ashes or dust. Furthermore, he seems to possess a power that allows him to break down and absorb reiatsu based constructs, attacks, or abilities, including Bankai. This is superior even to the Bankai stealing power of the Vandenreich. The full extent of Grimoire's abilities is unknown, but he has great physical ability, reiatsu strength, a virtually impenetrable defensive skin, and the ability to attack nonstop. Fighting Grimoire at all is never recommended.]
Bounty: [1,000,000 Ryo]
Name: [Anastasia Kuchiki & Raion Souretsu]
Current Status: [Active in Soul Society as Soul Food Editor and Squad 9 Captain]
Brief Background: [These two aren't known for their war efforts, but for gambling. As a duo, they do quite like to gamble, and unfortunately they're not very good at it. They always lose, and continue to borrow money to gamble more, and then lose that too. With their current lifestyle, they're in quite a lot of debt. You might even say infinity Ryo debt. They're wanted by clients in all three worlds for the money they owe. Bring them in and there will be a reward.]
Basic Powers: [Powers don't matter here. They're in debt for gambling. Honestly, just drug their sake and you're set.]
