(BLEACH AU)

Zaraki is a very tall, muscular Shinigami with a wild and aggressive appearance. He has a long face with high cheekbones, enlarged canine teeth, and pronounced, hairless brow ridges. He has green eyes and long black hair reaching past his shoulders. He has a long, thin scar running down the left side of his face and across his left eye, he appears to be a man in his mid to late 30's. He is captain of the 11th Division in the Gotei 13 and the 11th Kenpachi.

*Growing up without a name to go by for as long as he could remember, he chose to take his surname from the district he once resided in, Zaraki, which was District 80 of the North Alley of Rukongai. District 80 was the worst, most lawless region of Rukongai, full of thieves and murderers. As a young boy living in the streets of the Rukongai, Zaraki, coming upon the dead body of a Shinigami, took his Asauchi, later imprinting his soul upon it to make his own Zanpakutō. During that time, he eventually became proficient in swordsmanship, and killed numerous opponents. Sometime during this, he, coming upon Yachiru Unohana, fought with her. The fight was the first time he felt fear, and subsequently the first fight he ever enjoyed, having been bored slashing anything else. He subconsciously sealed his power to allow them to fight longer and consequently lost to her. After their fight, he began to admire her, and wanted to fight like her."

As a young man, in the 79th district, Zaraki came upon a young girl. He named her Yachiru, in remembrance of the only person he ever admired, after she showed no fear of his sword. The name Kusajishi was chosen as it was the district she came from.

Sometime later, Zaraki killed Kenpachi Kiganjō, the captain of the 11th Division, in a single blow in front of over two hundred members of the Division. As per the 3rd Captain Qualification Trial, Zaraki became the new captain of the 11th division and by killing the 11th Division captain, he became the official and uncontested holder of the title, Kenpachi.
