Biography
Araki Hansuke remains unknown to many due to his inabillity to express and open himself to people, most of the time Hansuke deals with issues and battle on his own - stubborn enough to not call for help even if needed. But would rarely turn down the request to aid another. Many deem to experience a discomfort around him due to his uninviting behavior.
Origin : District 79, Kusajishi.
Raised within a violent district Hansuke had to both learn and experience the violence within battles. Already in youth he practiced the fine swordsmanship with a small group of friends consisting of seven individuals. They did not exactly know one another, they were merely available to eachother as a form of protection and training. With their growing talents the group of young adults became more and more violent, simply due to the benefits of battle. Becoming the aggressors gave them respect, just the wrong kind of respect.
As he became an adult Hansuke and his group became well known within the district, however this was far from a benefit. Shunned by the communities around they were more prone to find new foes than comrades. Their united bond between one another as swordsmen finally came to a justified end, after several hours in battle the majority of his comrades died whilst he managed to flee with his tail between his legs.
The rest of his life within Kusajishi was lived within the shadows and Hansuke almost became a mere folklore. Knowing his life could not be what it was, he made several attempts to become a shinigami.
After a few failures at his entry to the Shin'ō Academy he finally made it. A very strange individual who was never seen around his comrades, usually by himself studying for his own future which would hopefully lead to a more valuable life with a proper purpose within the ranks of the Gotei 13.
