Ggio Vega

is an Arrancar in Sōsuke Aizen's army and one of Barragan Luisenbarn's six Fracción.

Character outline
Ggio is the shortest member of Barragan's Fracción. He is a slim, male arrancar with scruffy dark hair, a short braided ponytail, and a rather youthful face. The remnants of his Hollow mask resemble the skull of a Sabre-tooth tiger, and is worn like a helmet. His hollow hole is not visible.

Ggio wears the white standard arrancar uniform but it is customised and partley resembles a mandarin-style jacket with a small opening at his chest area, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, an upturned collar and hakama; all of which like other arrancar's clothing are white. His shoes are also similar to Pō's, resembling traditional martial arts training shoes.

Ggio shares a similar attitude to Second Division Captain Soifon, his opponent in the battle over the fake Karakura Town, but is even more arrogant and enjoys flaunting his perceived superiority. Like his fellow Fracción, he holds his master, Barragan, in high regard and refers to him as "his majesty".

Synopsis
Ggio first appears along with Barragan and the rest of his Fracción in the fake Karakura town to do battle with the Gotei 13. However, once Aizen, Ichimaru, and Tōsen are trapped in Yamamoto's Shikai, Barragan himself decides to give all orders. Ggio and Barragan's other Fracción then pull out a throne for him to sit upon.

After discovering the four pillars that are keeping the real Karakura Town in Soul Society, Barragan sends four members of his Fracción to a different pillar to destroy them, stating that if they are going to guard them using ants he will just have to send dragons to crush them. In the ensuing battles, one by one, the four Fracción are defeated and killed, much to Ggio's and Barragan's suprise.

Barragan, furious, prepares to take action himself but is persuaded by Ggio, who pleads with him to leave the remaining Shinigami to him and his other unnamed Fracción. Barragan agrees. Soifon overhears this and rushes to challenge him, thus the two begin to battle.

Ggio's attitude somewhat mirrors that of his adversary, commenting on her lieutenant Marechiyo Ōmaeda losing ground against his companion, to which Soifon responded that she doesn't mind, and that Omaeda should learn from his loss. After Soifon pins him down with a binding spell, she releases her Zanpakutō, Suzumebachi, confident in victory and prepeares to finish him off. Ggio, however, calmly creates a cero, destroying the wall he was pinned to and uses sonído to get behind her. Ggio criticises her for not simply flash stepping and finishing him off quickly, something he states that he would have done. He then delivers a powerful kick, sending her crashing into a building below and, after correctly identifying her as the captain of the second divison and special forces, releases his Zanpakutō (inadvertently killing or stunning his unnamed partner). His released form initially seemed to be too much for Soifon to take, and her lieutenant, Marechiyo Ōmaeda, attempted to intervene. When Ōmaeda grabs Ggio to give his captain a shot, the Arrancar prepares to fire a Cero. He is stopped by Soifon, who stated that she was simply examining and Arrancar's release form in preparation for fights against Espada.

Powers & Abilities
Cero: Like many Arrancar, Ggio can use Cero and he uses it by blasting it from the palm of his hands.

Sonido Expert: thanks to his speed and hand-to-hand combat prowess he is able to fight on par with Soifon for some time, which shows his above-average agility and her being an adept in the usage of Sonído.

Zanpakutō
''': (Spanish for "Tiger Rapier", Japanese for "Tiger Fang Swift Wind")


 * Resurrección: the release command "Bite Off" (食い千切れ, kuichigire?). Ggio's appearence changes to something much like a tiger. He gains long blades on each wrist, tiger stripes under his eyes, fur lining on his sleeves and pant legs, what appears to be dark fur covering his body in stripes, and an overall wilder appearence. His braid grows down to his knees and a blade silmilar to the ones on his wrists hangs from the end.


 * Resurrección Special Ability: Ggio demonstrates the ability to shoot the "saberteeth" of his helmet as projectiles in this form.
