Jugram Haschwalth

is a Quincy and member of the Vandenreich's Stern Ritter.

Appearance
Haschwald is a tall young man with a thin build, as well as long blonde hair that descends past his shoulders. His usual attire is a variation upon the Stern Ritter's typical white uniform, consisting of the order's signature hooded-cloak and a thigh-length trench coat, along with white trousers and shoes. However, when first seen, his cloak had been exchanged with a hooded-cape that featured a black mask and a thin black sash diagonally encircling his body from the cape's left epaulette.

Personality
While speaking in a much more casual manner to Juhabach than some, presumably due to his position amongst the Stern Ritter, Haschwald still retains a highly respectful tone.

The Thousand-Year Blood War arc
Witnessing Juhabach mercilessly slaughter Luders Friegen and Asguiaro Ebern, Haschwald questions if such a thing was alright given how precious the Arrancar should be due to them not needing to be trained in combat. Juhabach dismisses this, stating that they could acquire as many Arrancar as needed thanks to Hueco Mundo already being their territory, as he looks at the imprisoned Tier Harribel. Later examining Asguiaro's discarded medallion, Haschwald notices that while it had been used, it was unable to seal Ichigo Kurosaki's Bankai. After he states that actual proof was useful despite this being predicted, Juhabach then orders him to instruct the Jagdarmee of Hueco Mundo to collect "a few idiots" alive.

While Ichigo confronts Quilge Opie, he and the other Stern Ritter gather at the Gate of the Sun at Juhabach's behest, before traveling to Seireitei in order to participate in the conquest of Soul Society. Once there, he and the others emerge from pillars of blue flame prior to engaging the Shinigami in battle, where Haschwald tells the opposition to shiver in fear as the Stern Ritter had come to purge them. Ordered to halt by Hidetomo Kajōmaru, he retorts that he didn't mind if Hidetomo fled out of his overwhelming fear, proven by his reluctance to accept this as matter of life and death despite the war having begun. When Hidetomo then charges, he effortlessly cuts him down. Seeing the enemy's resolve crumble from afar, Juhabach permits him to spare their lives if he thought it kinder to do so.

After later informing Juhabach of Byakuya Kuchiki's death and how it took longer than predicted, they are approached by Kenpachi Zaraki carrying three dead Stern Ritter atop his shoulders. Identifying the captain, Haschwald listens to how each was killed and admits the truth in referring to Zaraki as a monster, but his reply is ignored as Zaraki makes clear his intent to kill Juhabach. He then looks on as the captain is soon defeated and held aloft by his throat, just before the arrival of Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto. As the battle between the captain-commander and Juhabach ensues, he continues to watch despite his concern. Witnessing Yamamoto's released Bankai, he questions if all there was to Zanka no Tachi was a scorched sword, but Juhabach warns him to not underestimate it, before explaining the Bankai's past ability. When Yamamoto later makes Zanka no Tachi, Nishi visible, he concludes that such extreme heat could not appear as flames and so, discerns that it was instead the captain-commander's overwhelming reiatsu.

With the real Juhabach's return, after Royd Lloyd's defeat, and Yamamoto's later death, Haschwald is told to convey to the other Stern Ritter that they were to raze Soul Society. Just as they intend to retreat and await the Royal Guard, an explosion occurs above the two. Identifying Ichigo Kurosaki's reiatsu, he questions if he should purge him but Juhabach declines, only for Ichigo to appear before them as they attempted to leave. Stepping forward, Haschwald is stopped by Juhabach, who ultimately decides that they're left with no option other than to crush Ichigo. With Ichigo quickly subdued, he acknowledges Juhabach's order to bring him back to their castle, where they could recruit him into their army.



Silently watching as Juhabach fights Ichigo, and eventually revealing the nature of the boy's power, Haschwald soon realizes that his leader's time outside of the safe area was reaching its limit. Calling out to him about it, Juhabach asks why he hadn't spoken up earlier if he had realized, only for Haschwald to respond that even if he had wanted to, he wouldn't have been able to stop him. Moving to leave with Juhabach, Ichigo tries to intervene only for Haschwald to swiftly break Tensa Zangetsu's blade, leaving the Shinigami to helplessly watch them disappear.

Spirit Weapon
Reishi Sword: Using his abilities as a Quincy, Haschwald is capable of concentrating both spirit energy and particles in order to transform them into weapons. His favored weapon manifests in the form of a narrow cruciform sword, with which he was able to effortlessly slice apart the blade of Ichigo Kurosaki's Bankai, Tensa Zangetsu.

Quotes

 * (To Hidetomo Kajōmaru) "Have you not noticed? Your fear is so great...that rather than see this for the matter of life and death it is, you have subconsciously chosen to refer to it as a matter of 'passage'. A foolish notion. This war has already begun."
