Abirama Redder

is the 22nd Arrancar in Sōsuke Aizen's army and one of Baraggan Louisenbairn's six Fracción.

Appearance
Unlike other Arrancar, Abirama does not wear a jacket, leaving the numerous red tattoos across his chest exposed. He wears two white sleeves on his wrists, a white hakama, a white breechcloth, and a black sash around his waist. His overall appearance, mannerisms, and battle style are highly reminiscent of a Native American Brave - releasing his Zanpakutō emphasizes this resemblance more clearly. He has long black hair, and the remains of his Hollow mask takes the form of a beak-like helmet atop his head. His Hollow hole is not visible, and he has dark gold eyes.

Personality
He is extremely violent, impulsive, rude and impatient. Before engaging in battle, he performs a ritual, which consists of him screaming all the things he is going to do to his opponent while demanding they do the same as a way to psyche each other out: if they do not do comply, he will become annoyed and angrily scold them. Like his fellow Fracción, he holds his master Baraggan Louisenbairn in high regard, referring to him as "his majesty". He has very little restraint in battle, releasing his Zanpakutō without launching even a single attack prior.

Fake Karakura Town arc
Along with Baraggan Louisenbairn and his other Fracción, Abirama arrives in the fake Karakura Town to do battle with the Gotei 13. After Sōsuke Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, and Kaname Tōsen are trapped by Captain-Commander Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto's Shikai, Baraggan snaps his fingers, and Abirama and his other Fracción bring him his throne.

After discovering the four pillars which are keeping the real Karakura Town in Soul Society and having four Hollows sent by Findorr Calius to destroy them killed, Baraggan sends a member of his Fracción, including Abirama, to each pillar to destroy them, stating if they are going to guard them using "ants", he will just have to send "dragons" to crush them. Abirama is sent to fight against Izuru Kira. Screaming about how he is going to kill Izuru, Abirama, noticing Izuru watching him, demands to know why he is not doing this as well. When Izuru asks what he is talking about, Abirama, explaining his ritual, starts screaming again before yelling at Izuru to do it. When Izuru says he sees no reason to perform such a ritual, Abirama, stating he ended up with a coward, introduces himself to Izuru. When Izuru introduces himself as the Lieutenant of the 3rd Division, Abirama, noting he is beneath Gin, claims he must have abandoned Soul Society because he had a coward like Izuru for a lieutenant. After Izuru, cutting his cheek, tells him to not use Gin's name lightly around him, a pleased Abirama notes he can fight, even with such a melancholy face.

Noting this is the face he wants to see, Abirama, stating this is Izuru's "battle face", draws his Zanpakutō and, claiming he will erase it, enters his Resurrección. Later, breaking Izuru's barrier, Abirama, expressing disappointment, states it is to be expected when facing Águila. Telling Izuru to not think his feathers are ordinary, he reveals they are made of steel. After Izuru uses '''Hadō #58. Tenran''', Abirama, cutting through the whirlwind, sees Izuru has escaped into the building he was standing on. Using Devorar Pluma to him out, Abirama, seeing Izuru leap out of a window, throws more feathers at him. As his feathers destroy the telephone poles around Izuru, Abirama criticizes him for trying to hide. Stating he does not know if Izuru is trying to come up with a plan, Abirama, proclaiming he will not let him do so, draws blood along one of the tattoos on his chest, causing him to grow another pair of wings. Diving at Izuru, Abirama, destroying the corner of the building, asks where he is hiding. Seeing Izuru in the smoke, Abirama asks if the attack had caught his legs. When Izuru states Abirama helped him by attacking him directly, Abirama, asking what use his oddly-shaped Zanpakutō is to him, topples over. As his wings sink into the ground, Abirama wonders what is going on. When Izuru explains the ability of Wabisuke, Abirama states it is an underhanded way for a warrior to fight. Explaining the philosophy of his division and how his Zanpakutō adheres to it the most, Izuru places the end of Wabisuke over Abirama's neck. When Abirama asks him to wait, Izuru, telling him a warrior does not beg, decapitates him.
