Name:Rangiku Matsumoto
Race:Shinigami
Age: now apprences to be 36 shingami age 900
Gender: Female
Division (if Shinigami): division 1
Commanding Espada (If arrancar):
Details
Appearance:Rangiku is an attractive woman with long, wavy, ginger hair (worn short in her youth) and icy blue eyes. Her most distinctive features are her extremely large breasts, which are even larger than Orihime Inoue's. She also shares Orihime's very strange taste in food. She dresses in the garb typical of Shinigami, though she lets her robes hang loose for her ample bosom to be revealed. She wears a necklace and a pink scarf over her arms. In addition, her lieutenant's armband is worn on her uniform's sash, as opposed to around the arm. Her first name, Rangiku, can be translated to "rangaku" which in japanese terms, means western medicine. However, the most common translation divides the name into the words "Ran" and "Giku", "Ran" meaning distortion or a large number and "Giku" meaning Chrysanthemum a word which is spoken as "kiku" usually
Personality:
Rangiku tends to be a slacker who dislikes paperwork and loves to drink. She is not the slightest bit modest about her appearance, frequently referring or complaining about her large breasts in normal casual conversation, much to the embarrassment/amusement of anyone around at the time. She is not above using her considerable feminine charms to get her way, as shown when she tries - albeit unsuccessfully - to bribe Ichigo Kurosaki into letting her stay at his house.
Her easy-going and free-spirited personality makes a sharp contrast to the serious Hitsugaya, but the two seem to be quite close regardless. Rangiku met the young boy prior to him utilizing his power and encouraged him to enter the shinigami academy. As a lieutenant, she is almost constantly by his side and has shown deep loyalty to him on several occasions, even though her laziness frequently annoys him.
While she seems somewhat self-centered, she is sensitive to the feelings of others, evident when she sees the concern Hitsugaya has for Momo Hinamori, the guilt Izuru Kira shares with her when Gin Ichimaru is revealed as a traitor, and when Orihime feels depressed about her role in Ichigo Kurosaki's life. Despite her lackadaisical image, she can be extremely serious when needed and is a capable fighter and strategist, best-shown when she uses clever teasing to manipulate the third Espada's Fraccion into squabbling among themselves and dropped their guard, leaving them open for an attack.
Rangiku's favorite food is dried persimmon, just like that of Ichimaru. She dislikes bamboo shoots because of their sharp flavor. Her favorite pass-time activities are afternoon napping and Japanese dance. It is also known that she collects kimonos, and grabs every opportunity to get herself treated to sake, she can spend her entire free days drinking. Her favorite "drinking buddies" are Shunsui Kyōraku and Shūhei Hisagi
History:Not much is known or mentioned about Rangiku's past. She came from Rukongai and was rescued as a child by Gin Ichimaru; the two soon became friends. She was once asked by Ichimaru during her childhood when her birthday was. She replied that she did not know because she never counted days until she met him. Rangiku also had been alone for as far as she could remember. This possibly means she was orphaned since birth. When he heard about this, Ichimaru told her that if this was the case, then her birthday should be set on the day they met (the day she was not alone anymore).
It is unknown how she became a Shinigami or how she became lieutenant of the 10th Division. Despite that fact, it is known that she was the one who convinced Tōshirō Hitsugaya to become a Shinigami by confronting him that his leaking reiatsu was the cause of his grandmother's sickness and why she was getting thinner
Weapons:
Kido spells (Shinigami only)
Expert Swordsmanship Specialist: Rangiku shows a great proficiency in wielding her Zanpakutō. While she can obviously hold her own in a fight her skill in the wielding of her Zanpakutō comes from her mastery of its special ability. Through sheer imagination in conjunction with her Zanpakutō's special ability, Rangiku has become skilled at taking on large groups at once.
Flash Step Expert: Rangiku's flash steps are great enough to keep up with her captain, but is most likely her skill at it is of the same level as most lieutenants. Her skill has proven great enough to easily out-manuever Arrancar capable of fighting at lieutenant-level skill.
Kidō Practitioner: As a lieutenant, Rangiku seems to have a understanding of Kidō spells at least enough to identify them upon sight. Though she is not a common user of the art she has been seen capable of using Binding Kido spell #57.
Enhanced Strength: Despite her highly feminine appearance, Rangiku has shown herself to be deceptively strong. During her battle against Nakeem Greendina, she was easily able to hold back the large Arrancar's stomping foot with a single hand.
Zanpakuto (SHINIGAMI AND ARRANCAR ONLY
Name: Haineko (灰猫, "Ash Cat"): The Zanpakutō's form is that of a straight-bladed katana. The guard is in the shape of a cat's head, as its name suggests, it has a dark red handle and a shield designed guard. Rangiku keeps Haineko behind her clipped onto her waist tie.
Sealed Appearance: straight-bladed katana

in its Shikai, Haineko dissolves into ash which floats in the air.[8] Though it now takes on the look of scattered ash, each particle is a tiny blade. Rangiku controls the ash to attack from any direction as soon as Rangiku moves the hilt, ultimately enveloping and tearing up the enemy. So evidently, Haineko is very hard to fight against in it's Initial release form. The main attack strength of Haineko comes from how much ash makes contact, thus why it is clumped together. If the ash was to attack the opponent in single particles, the damage would be small to nothing. The ash can cut through objects as easily as a sword would, similar in principle to Byakuya Kuchiki's Senbonzakura.

As Rangiku mentally controls the ash she can make it take various forms, so far she has created a gust of ash towards her opponents and a tornado. This gives her an advantage in fighting groups. Rangiku has also shown that Haineko can be a defensive weapon as well by having it take the form of a shield to defend against Apache's attack.

Rp Sample: Rang was breath taken by her husbands loving ways. Yes they'd been through a lot lately people always seemed to want to separate them from each other. They failed each time though because no matter what the other half did they would return to each other. Though things in the pass still bothered her she was young and Nevin.
She moaned at the touches and the love she got from you again. The moaning got a bit louder due to the fact when her butt was grabbed which was another turn spot. Oh how she loved being teased by her husband loving ways. She arched her back a bit and remembered they where in deed in the carriage.
" mmm what ever you like to do love I'm right here. To love and protect you though in the past we each had our ups and downs . and when you were down I've tried picking you back up again.. And so did you when i was very sick you didn't leave my side. Not for a moment and you worried yourself badly. And I'm sorry for the things in the past I've done i know i hurt you. Something i never wanted to do to you Love. "
Her eye suddenly become teary eyed as she remember the way she was in the past. The pushing and pulling him to different side. the confusion she caused and wonder sometimes why. She shakes her head a bit and hugs her dear husband closer to her heart. Her heart which raced fast as she felt vash's heart as well.
