Kirio Hikifune

<p>Kirio is a main protagonist from the series Bleach. A member of Squad 0 and the royal guard with the duty of protecting the Soul King, her role as "Ruler of the Grain", she helped found Gikon which are souls that can inhabit a vessel like a gigai. It was what granted her promotion from Squad 12 as a researcher. She is a fairly tall woman of fair complexion with hazel eyes. She has long, smooth purple hair reaching her mid-back that curls up at the ends and bangs framing the sides of her face. She wears black lipstick and has red swirl-shaped markings under both her eyes. She normally has her hair done up into a bun and secured with a large silver, spoon-like adornment. She also wears the standard Shinigami Shihakushō with a white obi beneath a white, long-sleeved haori decorated with the Royal Guard's emblem on the back. Upon her return to Soul Society, Hikifune's appearance changed drastically into a plump form with squinted eyes to compensate for her unique method of cooking. Once she is finished cooking, or when her Reiatsu is otherwise sufficiently depleted, she reverts to her original slender and well-endowed form, in which she leaves her hair down and her obi hanging loosely at her hip. As a soul reaper and a royal guard member she holds great spiritual power able to use kido and such, she can also utilize a technique called the Tree of Life where she conjures reiatsu-absorbing roots for defense. Her cooking skills make use of her own reiatsu to empower those who eat it. While her zanpakutou and bankai are unknown, it can however take the form of an oversized cooking spoon </p>
