Byakuya Kuchiki
A noble captain whose blade disperses into a thousand blades, and whose adherence to law is written as a wound rather than a virtue.
Powers
The feat ledger
Senbonzakura disperses his blade into a thousand fragments he directs at will
Flash step movement leaves afterimages
Casts high-level kido without incantation
The fragments are too small to see, which is why the attack cannot be blocked
Closes distance before an opponent registers he has moved
Bankai multiplies the fragment count into the millions
Control is stated to depend on his own reiatsu, so exhaustion disperses it
His adherence to Soul Society law is written as self-punishment
