 * Gunnar Sherrill is the former lieutenant of the 13th division under Captain Jushiro Ukitake, and is now a Vizard, but secretly visits his friends in the Soul Society.

Appearance
Gunnar appears to be in his mid/late teens to early twenties with grey eyes and dark blond hair in astyle similar to that of Gin Ichimaru. He wore the standard Soul Reaper uniform with white socks instead of tabi and sandals not like that of most Soul Reapers. He weore his lieutenant armband on his left arm.

Since his defection from the soul society, he has started wearing jeans and T-shirts. And wears his zanpakuto in a leather strap across his back.

Personality
Gunnar seems to posses multiple personalities, he can be humorous some of the time, as he is usually making some sort of joke and has been known to play a number of pranks. Yet he also can be serious at other times, as noted by his conversations with Captain Ukitake. He has stated that there is a time to be fun, and a time to be serious, something he reiterates multiple times. He and Sentarō Kotsubaki once semmed to be good friends and share negative opinions of Kiyone. He hates math with a passion. Ikkaku Madarame once jokingly suggested he join the 11th division, but Gunnar replied that Kenpachi Zaraki "just isn't the same as Captain Ukitake" thus hinting that he competed with Kiyone and Sentaro for Ukitake's approval. He believes Yumichika Ayasegawa to be gay, he still has nightmares of his gayness. He always avoided him because of this.

Plot
Strangely, Gunnar does not appear in the anime, or manga and is in fact not a canon character at all.

Powers & Abilities
Kido Practitioner: He is able to perform Hado #1 Sho, Hado #4 Byakurai, Hado#31 Shakkahō, and Hado#33 Sokatsui a without quoting their incantation.

Swordsmanship Specialist: Gunnar says his preferred style of fighting is kendo, but combined with his zanpakuto's shikai special ability, it becomes a significant advantage over many opponents.

Immense Spiritual Energy: His spiritual pressure is beyond that of most lieutenants, yet as noted on one certain occasion by captain Ukitake, it is close to the level of a captain, albeit, Gunnar not informed of this.

Flash Steps Practitioner: He is skilled in use of shunpo, but in gigai in the human world, he attempts (several times) to use shunpo, yet forgets he is in his gigai, thus being unable to perform said technique.

Zanpakuto
Kuraikaji (Shadow Flame)The hilt is black and looks like an ordinary katana with a black handle and a dark bronze tsuba. During his days as a lieutenant, he carried it at his waist in his obi, but he now started wearing it across his back in a black leather strap because he thinks it "looks cool." It does, you know?

Shikai special ability: Gunnar's shikai has several special abilities.
 * Shikai It is triggered by the phrase "Crush and burn down"


 * When Gunnar says its release command, the blade glows purple and then transforms into a blade of black and dark purple fire and is known to be able to cut through many things for a direct attack, including several sealed zanpakuto and is said to be able to cut through a zanpakuto in shikai, but Gunnar says he hasn't shown anyone its full cutting power just yet. This ability, combined with his knowledge of kendo prove to be a deadly combination in both offensive and defensive. Some zanpakuto cannot be cut through using this ability.


 * Kuraikaji has also demonstrated two ranged attacks, the latter of the two being discovered by accident.

-Gunnar has also on multiple occasions been seen firing black and red flame blasts while swinging Kuraikaji in shikai state.

-Gunnar once made a dark puple lightning blot when he pointed Kuraikaji forward and focused his spiritual energy towards the blade.


 * Bankai: Fuhen Kuraikaji (Eternal Shadow Flame) Gunnar knows his bankai name, but cannot communicate with Kuraikaji well enough to release it yet, but is regularly training with Kuraikaji trying diligently to learn it.

Hollowfication
His mask resembles a hockey mask with red flames around the eye holes.


 * Enhanced Strength: with the help of his newer powers, Gunnar can create a huge shockwave by slamming his zanpakuto into the ground.


 * Power Augmentation: Gunnar is able to use his Hollow powers to supplement his Soul Reaper powers.


 * Hierro: Unlike most Vizard, Gunnar is able to use Hierro, and is able to block an attack without showing much effort.


 * Cero: Gunnar is able to fire a Dark Red Cero from his hand.


 * Bala: Gunnar can fire bala blasts from his fists at a higher rate than Yammy Riyaglo, Probbably because Yammy's great size limits his movement.


 * Telekinesis: Gunnar is able to throw his shikai, and retrieve it, and is also seen moving hollows around in the air using this power.


 * Enhanced mask duration: Gunnar seems to have no problem keepng his mask on for extended periods of time.
