Personnel Information

Biography

Kari Sayuri Inihara is one of the few remaining Malakh in the Ethereal Plane. Little is known about her early life within the Ethereal Plane, but it is documented that she entered the Order of the Grim Angels, a smaller force within the Gilead Order, at the age of 471. While there, she was assigned to the 5th Division under the leadership of Chieko Murakami, and soon rose to the rank of the fourth seat of the division. Many years later, at the beginning of the Great Ethereal War, the frequent battles soon took their toll on the 5th Division - by the end of the 73rd year, the Captain, Vice-Captain, and third seated officer of the 5th Division had been slain in combat, placing the relatively-inexperienced Kari in acting command of the division.

Amazingly, despite the relative power gap between Kari and many of the other Captains, her squad remained able to hold its own in combat thanks to exceptional use of tactics and planning, many of those plans being attributed to Kari's then-Lieutenant, Chojiro Miyagi. Many more years passed before the war ended, and Kari's trials as the leader of the 5th Division were in fact just beginning, despite the disbanding of the Gilead Order and, by extension, the Order of Grim Angels. Kari, despite her personal opinions behind her actions, was sentenced to captivity in the Void for 60 years to avoid public outcry and a revival of unrest, a sentence that she bore stoically as a final act of respect and tribute to those who had given their lives in her command.

When she emerged from the Void at the age of 906, she joined the Order of Ethereal Magi in order to continue her mission of protecting the Ethereal Plane, training under the God of Knowledge, Xeios. There, Xeios saw great potential in the former Captain, and recommended to Freya that she be given a role more fitting of her station than a mere soldier within the Ethereal forces. Freya summoned Kari on Xeios' advice, offering the young Malakh a station under Erasmus himself as a guardian of the plane of Hueco Mundo, domain of the Authors. Kari accepted the offer, withdrawing from her station as a Templar within the Order to take her new position as an Adjutant within Hueco Mundo.

239 years later, when Fayt attempted a revolt to claim Freya's position as her own and was stripped of her powers, Freya called upon the Malakh once again. Kari was granted the temporary position as the Pillar of Fate, holding these powers until Freya deemed Fayt worthy to return to her status as a Pillar of Reality.

Personality

Kari's personality is somewhat at odds with her otherwise youthful appearance. She acts much older than she appears at first glance, and takes her position as a guardian of the path to Hueco Mundo quite seriously. However, she is still a very kind individual when treated with courtesy and respect.

Synopsis

Kari made her first and only appearance to date in the series when Aizen Sosuke attempted to use the Alchemic Trinity to open a path to Hueco Mundo. At the Door of Space-Time, he was confronted by Kari and Ma'at, who barred him entrance. After he divulged the reason he had come to the Door, the two allowed him entry into the otherworldly environment of the Author's home dimension.

Combat Information

Kari has not been shown in combat within the series as of the present time; however, as a former Captain of the Order of Grim Angels, it is presumed that she is one of the higher-ranking entities within the realm, possessing power to match.

  • Master Swordsmanship Specialist: Kari is an expert with light blades, capable of fighting evenly with most high-ranking Ethereal and Nether entities.
  • Skilled Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Kari, like all Captains, has at least basic training in hand-to-hand combat skills. This is not her primary style of fighting, but she can defend herself if required.
  • Enhanced Strength: Kari is capable of using her formidable reiatsu to increase her strength, giving her a level of strength above and beyond even normal Malakh.
  • Exceptional Agility: Kari possesses a high degree of skill with Shunpo, which gives her great mobility in combat. Her agility, combined with her skill with her Diviner in both sealed and released forms, gives her excellent battlefield reach and control.
  • Immense Spiritual Energy: Kari, like all Captains, possesses a great degree of spiritual power, enough to fight for greatly extended periods of time and generate incredible levels of reiatsu to debilitate enemies.
  • Expert Magic User: As a former member of the Fifth Division and a member of the Order of Ethereal Magi, Kari possesses a great degree of skill with magical attacks of all kinds, surpassing even her former Captain.

Personal Abilities

Kari possesses a number of specialized abilities owing to her status as a Malakh. Among these are Shunpo, or "flash steps," a rapid-movement ability used predominantly by Malakh, as well as special spells, Binding Arts and Destructive Arts, which can be used with or without an incantation. Using them with the incantation takes longer, but increases the power or effectiveness of the spell.

Diviner

Kari, as a former Grim Angel Captain, has a Diviner created during her time in the Order. Her Diviner is named Kazewana (Wind Snare), and Kari is capable of manifesting her Diviner in both a Shikai and Bankai form.

  • Shikai: Kazewana takes the form of a long chain with a crescent-shaped blade on one end and a long spike on the other. It is activated by the command "swirl" (uzu).
Shikai Special Ability: Kazewana's Shikai is capable of releasing cutting waves of Wind-elemental energy from the curved blade of the weapon.
  • Bankai: Named Kiritori Kazewana (Slicing Wind Snare). Kazewana takes the form of a long chain of magical energy connecting two identical weapons, each consisting of a circular ring upon which three long, double-edged blades are attached in a triangular pattern.
Bankai Special Ability: In its Bankai form, Kazewana retains its Shikai ability to launch blades of wind and is capable of doing so from either weapon. Kazewana's chain can also extend up to 25 meters in order to attack distant foes. When thrown, slicing wind surrounds the spinning blades to enhance the cutting ability.
