• Personality: The first thing that is to be noticed about Shiroshi is that his intelligence is far from something to be sniffed at. In fact, one could go as far as calling him a genius, and his 200+ IQ is to certainly be accredited for that. He doesn't flaunt it, though. Actually, despite having the ability to work out most problems mentally within a few seconds, he tries not to show it. He actually tries to take "longer", so he doesn't overshadow anybody.

Now, despite his overbearing intelligence, he isn't very smart in terms of common sense. He makes poor decisions socially, and is rather gullible when he trusts a person enough - and he actually trust people pretty easily. Even though he's intelligent enough to see and make problems go away, he can't seem to work out that personality is a large part of someone's psyche, and sees everyone as trustworthy. If he finds that he can't trust someone, he'll take the time to study exactly why they lost his trust for in the future. He carries around a notebook as well, and takes the time to write social norms in it, to make sure he has the understanding necessary for in the future.

When he looks at a person, he tries to appreciate their thinking patterns. He chooses his closest friends based on the way that they think and react, and the most interesting ones are the ones that he picks to be his closest friends and confidants - it also takes something special for him to fall in love, he won't just find that he has feelings for just anybody, because that in itself defeats the purpose of love and life, at least in his opinion.

• History: Never born on Earth, Yoshiaki was a soul born straight into Rukongai--into one of the richer districts of the time, District 8. Not too bad, but not exactly the best. It certainly wasn't rife with crime, but Yoshiaki felt the need to do something, anything that he could to keep himself safe. Taking up the sword from a young age, he only found any real satisfaction in it when he actually had the chance to defend himself--he could never truly bring himself to go forth and attack others. Instead, Yoshiaki would immerse himself in the world of science--Chemistry, to be exact. While he would work with chemicals during the day, he would defend himself when he was out during the nights.

It was about thirty years into his life that his ability to use Reishi was discovered by a wandering Shinigami. This Shinigami took to him quickly, bringing him to the Shino Academy and getting him prepared to learn to become a Shinigami of whatever Division he'd choose. Relishing every class that he took as a new challenge, Yoshiaki found himself excelling in the way of the sword--though this is likely because of his training--and he would further his skills daily against multiple enemies. He found that he had developed his own scientific prowess into a furthered state, creating his own laboratory in a small hammerspace dimension that followed him everywhere. When asked how he could do it, he simply shrugged--how was he supposed to know something that just happened?

Of course, it was evident in the end that he would be chosen for the Twelfth Division, taking up a low rank in a place that allowed him to continue his work with chemicals. Although he wasn't as much about the experimentation side of the Twelfth, he was happy to work with whatever else he could at the time. And so, begins this man's story.

• Hammer Labs: Although most Shinigami seem to focus more on learning the names of their Zanpakutō before anything else, it seems to have been completely and totally different when involving Yoshiaki. He has created what can only be known as the most effective portable laboratory known to man--completely locked down in hammerspace for his use, and his use alone.

Within this laboratory can exist myriads of different chemicals, all ready for Yoshiaki's use. It's as easy as opening it up and pulling out one or two chemicals with haste. This allows for multiple uses on the battlefield. He can also use his Reishi as a successful catalyst, allowing him to force reactions at a higher pace than usual--this can also substitute for heat if need be. Multiple containers are also included, in case Yoshiaki were looking to create a bomb, or anything of the sort.

This entire combination process, at least for simple concoctions, can take less than a second.
