Zommari Rureaux

Character outline
Zommari LeRoux (ゾマリ・ルルー, Zomari ruruu) is a tall, muscular, dark-skinned arrancar. His hollow hole is not visible but his mask remnants consist of a row of bony spikes along the crest of his head, along with a pair of skull-shaped earrings and a thick bony necklace. Zommari's uniform consists of a long mandarin-style arrancar jacket with a small opening at his chest area. He wears a default hakama like all other arrancar, although is his sandals resemble traditional martial arts training shoes.

Zommari displays a calm, contemplative personality and rarely spoke prior to his confrontation with Byakuya Kuchiki. Beneath this composed exterior however he hides a considerable loathing for Shinigami, believeing them overly prideful for believeing they had a right to defend humans or destroy hollows who pray on them. A level headed but somewhat arrogant individual he treats Byakuya as though he was a equal but consistantly looked down on him. His insistance on proving his superiority without actually testing his opponents full power, or striking him directly when he was fully capable of doing so, prove his undoing.

Synopsis
Zommari is first introduced when he goes to finish of Kuchiki Rukia when Aaroniero fails to kill her. However right before he is about to deliver the finishing blow Kuchiki Byakuya shows up and begins to do battle with the 7th espada. At first Zommari thinks he has the upperhand when he uses his Gemelos Sonído to walk circles around Kuchiki; but Byakuya uses a technique taught to him by Shihouin Yoruichi to keep up with Zommari's speed.

Both fighters soon let their arrogance take over. Byakuya, not willing to admit that there is an arrancar who can fight on his level, forces Zommari to release his zanpakutō to give him a slight advantage over Kuchiki. Zommari uses his zanpakutō's power to take control of Byakuya's body parts. When Byakuya cuts the tendons and muscles in his left leg and arm to negate the effect he turns his attention to Rukia, taking control of her body and forcing her own zanpakutō to her neck. Byakuya uses a binding spell to prevent Rukia's movements and releases his Bankai to engulf Zommari in a new technique.

Zommari survives the attack but barely. Knowing that he is about to die, Zommari curses Kuchiki saying that shinigami are arrogant for believing they have a right to hunt and judge hollows simply because they consider them evil. Kuchiki dismisses his words saying he's only killing Zommari because he threatened to kill Rukia and kills Zommari with one slash. As he dies Zommari shouts his praise for Aizen.

Powers
As primero Espada (the 1st), Zommari like all arrancar have standard hollow powers. However Zommari holds the title for the swiftest Sonído among all arrancar including the Espada. Zommari's Sonído is so fast that it can leave a total of five afterimages of himself behind after he moves which he uses as diversions, subsitutes or multi-directional attacks. Because of this, it has earned the nickname Gemelos Sonído (双児響転（ヘメロスソニード）, Hemerosu Sonīdo, Spanish for "twins sound," Japanese for "twin resounding revolution").

Brujería
Zommari's zanpakutō is called Brujería (呪眼僧伽（ブルヘリア）, Buruheria, Spanish for "witchcraft," Japanese for "sangha of bewitching eyes"). It resembles a normal katana with the exception of the guard which appears as a thick disk with spikes around the rim. The release command for Brujería is "suppress" (鎮まれ, shizumare).

In its release Brujería covers Zommari's entire body with fifty open eyes, and his legs are replaced by a pumpkin-like structure surrounded by cyclopean faces (In the manga the entire pumpkin like structure is colored red and the extra eyes are yellow). His neck is covered in a skull-shaped neck brace with an open eye in the front. Black markings also appear on his face, in the form of 2 downward triangles starting from his eyes. Another 4 triangular marking appears under his mouth forming what looks like a beard. The eyes cover Zommari's entire body except for his head. However he later reveals 8 hidden eyes above his normal 2 on his head.

Using the eyes on his body, Zommari can take control of one object per eye, in his own words "stealing the soverignty of whatever it sees". He has named the effect amor (Spanish for "love"). When Zommari takes control of an object a sun-shaped tattoo will appear on said object giving Zommari full control over the object. If targeted on an opponents limbs it removes the brains control from the said limb allowing him to control his opponents movements or inflict self harm. By targeting the head of an individual Zommari can take control of that person's entire body. Though fast enough to keep up with flash steps, his own arrogance means he does not immediatly seize control of an opponent. Its unknown if the eyes themselves can actually see, however since he turns to watch an opponent it is presumed that they cannot. His release can also be used as a defensive maneuver as its lower half can become a full sphere that covers his upper body and was even capable of resisting a full scale attack from Byakuya Kuchiki's bankai abet costing him almost all of his eyes.
