CHARACTER INFORMATION-
Canon Character and Series: Yachiru Kusajishi, Bleach
In-Game Name: Yachiru Kusajishi
Age: 6 ¾
Gender: Female
Position & Ship (first and second choice for position please): Cabin boy or powder monkey, Fierta
Appearance: Yachiru is six years old, and looks like a normal six year old girl, if a little shorter. She has pink hair that flips out, with her bangs falling slightly in her face. Her brown eyes are frequently wide open in happiness or surprise, and she’s almost always smiling.
Usually trailing behind her on a set of training wheels is Yachiru’s sword. Yes, the six year old has a sword, and she’s not letting it go. It was a gift from Ken-chan. She drags it around on a cord, and never goes anywhere without it. The same goes for some sort of snack. Yachiru loves to eat sweets, and usually has some with her.
She typically wears kimonos or boy’s clothing, finding dresses to be way to ‘wussy’ and no good in a fight. Not that she thinks kimonos are much better, but they’re much more comfortable and come in pretty colors.
Personality: Yachiru is…different than most children. She enjoys simple, child-like pastimes (snacking, pranking, coloring, playing) but what Yachiru enjoys most of all is a good fight. She’s perfectly capable of fighting herself (despite her age), but she’d much rather watch her friends duel. Especially Ken-chan. Ken-chan’s the happiest when he’s fighting, after all.
Other than fighting, Yachiru loves to sneak up on people and chew on their heads. No reason, it’s just fun and it annoys people.
Like most children, Yachiru will sometimes notice things adults don’t, or comment on things adults are afraid to comment on. She still has her childlike innocence when it comes to everything but fighting.
Yachiru is very bossy and intimidating, usually able to make grown men afraid to disobey her if she tells them to do something. Perhaps it has to do with the fact she carries around a sword, and wouldn’t hesitate to use it-or bite whoever wasn’t listening to her, or prank them in some horrible, embarrassing and possibly painful way. She’s not very patient, either, but then again, she is six.
Abilities/Weapons: Due to an incident in the Shasta mines, Yachiru is much faster and stronger than a normal six year old. She’s capable of lifting a man twice her size and drag him to safety, but she has only done this once and would probably not do it again unless she needed to. Otherwise, Yachiru is capable of moving extremely fast, even without sugar in her system (not that this happens often). The girl is also very skilled in infiltration, which she mostly uses to prank people.
Other than her speed and strength, Yachiru drags around her sword. She’s aware that it’s probably a magic sword-a zanpakutō-but has no idea how to do anything with it that doesn’t involve smacking people with the hilt or slicing people with it.
After the episode in Shasta, in which Yachiru’s powers were revealed to her, the girl has begun to see what she thinks are spirits and ghosts. She’s not sure if she’s imagining things or not, since other people have mentioned seeing them, too.
How well can your character hack?: She can barely read. Yachiru can’t hack at all.
Weaknesses: Despite her strength and speed, Yachiru is still a young girl and gets tired easily. She also lacks any real prowess with the sword right now, and could easily get overpowered in a fight.
Yachiru is also weak against most magical attacks, and in fact doesn’t understand the concept of magic unless it’s to blow stuff up or the special magic she knows she has in herself and in her sword.
History: Yachiru doesn’t know it, but she was born in a little, hole-in-the-wall town of the Badlands, where it was dog-eat-dog and murders were as regular as clockwork. Her mother abandoned her when Yachiru was about one and a half, though if it was from necessity or sheer heartlessness no one knows.
Miraculously, the toddler managed to avoid getting killed for a few days. Finally, hungry and bored, Yachiru wandered out to the outskirts of the town. Maybe there’d be food a tiny child could actually eat that wasn’t rotten.
Instead of food, Yachiru found something better. A new friend.
She had crawled out to a wooded area where dead bodies lay scattered on the ground in their own blood. Unafraid (after all, she’d seen worse back in town), Yachiru crawled past all of it and approached the only other living person in the grove: a swordsman who at that time was nameless.
He was several times Yachiru’s size, and had a bloodstained sword, but it didn’t faze Yachiru, who went up and touched the sword, giggling. As she played in the blood on the ground, the swordsman named her Yachiru Kusajishi, after both someone close to the swordsman and the town Yachiru had come from. The swordsman himself took the name Kenpachi Zaraki.
From that day forward, Yachiru was essentially adopted by Kenpachi (who, as she got older, Yachiru called Ken-chan or Kenny). She traveled with the giant everywhere, usually clinging to his back. The only time she let go was to sleep, or when Ken-chan was fighting and didn’t want to worry about accidentally dropping the baby.
A few years later, the two reached an actual city, Shasta. They managed to live there for a few months before Yachiru had wandered off to play in the mana crystal mines. Exposure to such high concentration of magic at such a young age (she was about three, and Kenpachi tended to let her do what she wanted) caused Yachiru’s latent magical power to awaken. She was suddenly much faster than anyone she’d ever met, and almost as strong as Ken-chan! Yachiru thought it was the best thing that had ever happened to her, next to meeting Kenpachi.
For Yachiru’s birthday after the mine incident, she asked for a sword like Ken-chan’s, one with a mana crystal in it. She got it, though everyone who saw her with it figured she needed to be taken in by a good, respectable family that wouldn’t give her sharp, magical, deadly weapons.
Finally, Yachiru and Kenpachi decided it was time to move on. The day they were due to set out, however, turned out to be a big market day/festival, and Yachiru wound up separated from her giant. Lost, but not too terribly worried (Ken-chan could take care of himself), Yachiru simply wandered onto the nearest airship and stowed away. She’d just have to take all the airships she could until she found Kenpachi.
