"Have you ever danced with the Devil on a pale moonlit night?"

is an elusive, enigmatic Shinigami from one of the early five noble families of Seireitei, and thus, current leader and heir to her clan- she and her family were the ones responsible for creating Kikōō, the true form of Sōkyoku, and it is known that she served in the Kidō Corps. It was thought that her whole kin, her included, were massacred, but she is apparently the sole remaining survivor- having been thrown in Hueco Mundo and during that time, she managed to absorb her Zanpakutō in a bid to survive, which resulted in an enhanced proficiency in kidō. That makes her the only Shinigami to develop and procure such augmented powers through such means and the only Shinigami who acquired the ability to merge with and detach her Zanpakutō at will. Later it is revealed that she is also the keeper, guardian and by default, the owner of Sōkyoku’s true form and power- Kikōō, and the only one who can harness its potential. According to Captain-General Yamamoto, she survived partly because she was 'protected' by her Zanpakutō.

Zanpakutō

 * Idiomatically, "Blade of Flaming Shadows". Yukaeshi’s Zanpakutō is concealed in the form of a normal, traditional katana with a lacquered and silk-wrapped black hilt and an ornate chrysanthemum, flame and feather motive decorated gold square-shaped guard, sheathed in a lacquered black scabbard with an elaborate traditional silk hanging cord near the top and tipped with gold.


 * Shikai: Triggered by the command "Destroy" (Kihai Suru).


 * Bankai: : Idiomatically "Ring of Flaming Shadow Blades".


 * Resurrecion: Triggered by the command "Carve" (Okizamu) and involves running her left hand down the length of the blade of her katana and then placing it on her shoulder, pointing towards her, the blade touching her neck.
