Ryuga Kusaka

Appearance:
Ryuga has dark skin and dark brown braids. He has yellow eyes and is from the Kusaka clan. Unlike his older brothers, Ryuga and his brother Zacari both have darker skin and black hair. Unlike his brother Zacari, Ryuga was born with no facial blemishes. Along with the traditional oni beads Ryuga usually wore clear goggles, although this was not always the case. He kept his hair tied back in a ponytail similar to ASAP Rocky. His zanpakuto resembles a ninja katana with no guard and blue grip with a diamond like shape on the front.

Personality:
Ryuga values victory above all else and makes that his primary focus in any battle he's in. He tends to travel the Rukon with his companions the Seller Squad so he's prepared for any battle. With a dream of becoming Captain he set off in his goal not following the path of his fellow clansmen. Unlike Zacari, Ryuga valued fighting with friends and traveling with a group instead of on his own. Following a path not followed by his brothers he befriended many people such as Sora Sasaki, Christa Toudou, and Tomoe Toudou. Forming a formidable group with his friends Ryuga and Sora have challenged many strong hollows with the value of victory held above everything else including honor. Because of this Ryuga focuses on jumping his opponents and not giving them the slightest chance of victory at all stating multiple times "Seller squad does not fight for honor; we fight to win" before cutting down his opponents. Even though he has this level of disrespect towards his opponents he does value honor when facing people within his own faction. He is currently studying under Par Feng as his Lieutenant in hopes of becoming one of the newest Captains of the Gotei 13.

Background and Abilities:
Ryuga is the twin brother of Zacari Kusaka however both brothers do not really interact with each other, if at all. Though the Kusaka clan is the most populous royal clan in the Bleach Ultimate Universe they're quite separate from each other. Three out of the four brothers intended on being captains and are going about in their own way with Zacari being the first of the clan to become one. This has pushed Ryuga even harder to become a captain before he runs out of time to become one. Because of his distance from his brothers Ryuga's family mainly revolves around the members in Seller Squad. His friends Christa and Sora both were his companions for a long time and he cares about them deeply.

Ryuga possesses skills in both Kenjutsu and Shunpo being able to wield both techniques efficiently. He knows very little about kido however has begun studying about Bakudo so he can apply kido into his fights. Ryuga is the only person in the Soul Society who possesses the strongest version of the Air Cutter technique with his Captain being second. Before the timeskip Ryuga had an opportunity to duel with the King of Hueco Mundo, Kaius and was formidable against the strong King. With the perks of being a Lieutenant Ryuga also possesses durability that rivals that of an Arrancar and battle quite proficiently against them regardless of their own techniques.
