Ludwig Heitzarr von Zarkonheinz [Approved 3-5]

• Name: Ludwig Heitzarr von Zarkonheinz
• Titles:
• Gender: Male
• Appearance Age: 20-ish
• Age: 200-300, he forgets.
• Affiliation/Rank: 3rd Seat of the Gotei 13's 10^th Division

• Appearance Description: Ludwig has his ancestors' hair. Well, at least he has most of their hair. He has a small part of black hair in front. He uses it as a fashion statement. He has cyan eyes, which shine brightly against his hair and pale skin. He does not wear a standard Shinigami Uniform, nor any part of it. His outfit looks closer to that of a college student than a soldier. He wears a blue button-down shirt with the sleeves half-rolled up, revealing the white cuffs at his elbows. The shirt has white shoulders too. He has a yellow tie that he wears, claiming it's good luck. His pants are black with no belt, but he keeps a small satchel on his left leg. To keep his pants up, he wears suspenders. Not old-man suspenders, these are a faded maroon with sword-like pins connecting to his pants, as well as the sheathes for his Zanpakutō. He has a single, silver sword pin on his breast pocket. He says he got it from a girl he met in his academy days.

• Personality: To be honest, Ludger should never have been a Shinigami. He should not have gotten through the academy. He's lazy to the extent he's too lazy to nap, saying it's too much effort to go to wake up when he needs to. He has a habit of forgetting to shower, but he never goes more than just a couple of days without one. However, just because he's lazy does not mean that he isn't dutiful. That's evident in the fact that he does do his paperwork, but it's just illegible. He's more useful for surveillance roles (as such, he should probably be in the 3rd Division, not the 10th) because of the fact he just prefers to sit for a long time, watching people. That's also a hobby of his: people watching. He has an interest in how active people are, and how they stay active.He stays fit by participating in combat and drills. No, he doesn't like combat. He likes getting it done quickly. As such, he's more likely to be unrefined in battle, causing collateral damage as he goes around.

• History: Ludwig was never human. He was born a soul to the third branch of the von Zarkonheinz family. His branch was one of the older ones, known for their accounting skills. His father was the von Zarkonheinz, while his mother was a Kaizme. He was the only child of his mother and father, as his mother died in childbirth with him. His father sank into depression after it, relying on his brother to raise Ludwig. Ludwig's uncle was not known for his accounting skills. To be honest, he was horrible with it. He was lazy, unorganized, and the opposite of an elephant in terms of memory.
His uncle taught Ludwig some horrible lessons to live by. They included "Sleep before you leap" and "If yer tired, yer doing a good job." However, Ludwig learned that some of them made no sense, and when he got a chance, he left. He wandered the streets, stealing apples and other fruit for food. However, he was caught one day. Instead of being jailed, he was sentenced to community service... which he avoided by enrolling in the academy. He regrets it to this day. He barely got through, but his athleticism from stealing apples was more than enough to get him a good position in the Gotei.
