Basic Information
Name: Ggio Vega
Age: unknown
Gender: Male
Rank: Arrancer
Looks: Ggio is a slim, male Arrancar with scruffy dark hair, a short braided ponytail, golden eyes, and a rather youthful, feminine face. He is the shortest member of Baraggan's Fracción. The remnants of his Hollow mask resemble the skull of a Saber-tooth tiger, and is worn on the top of his head as a helmet. His Hollow hole is not visible.
Ggio wears the white standard Arrancar uniform but it is customized and partly resembles a mandarin-style jacket with a small opening at his chest area, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, an upturned collar and hakama; all of which like other Arrancar's clothing are white. His shoes are also similar to Choe Neng Poww's, resembling traditional martial arts training shoes (in the Anime, they seem to be normal Arrancar boots). His hakama are also slightly different from normal, as the legs are rather close-fitting and lack the creases normal hakama have.
Hollow Hole: unknown
Mask Fragment: The remnants of his Hollow mask resemble the skull of a Saber-tooth tiger, and is worn on the top of his head as a helmet.
Personality: Ggio shares a similar attitude to Captain Soifon, his opponent during the battle over the fake Karakura Town; both are calm, loyal, firm, and antagonistic toward their subordinates, however, Ggio is cocky, sarcastic and somewhat boastful. Like his fellow Fracción, he holds his master in high regard, and refers to him as "his majesty". However, he has little care for any of the other Fracción on his side, matching the relationship of Soifon to her lieutenant Marechiyo Ōmaeda. During battle, he tends to taunt his opponents by telling them what they should have done, then attacking them viciously. He does not like to be underestimated, and becomes greatly annoyed once he is.
Sexuality: straight
Relationship Status: Single
Resurrecion Information
Name: Tigre Estoque (虎牙迅風 (ティグレストーク), Tiguresutōku; Spanish for "Tiger Rapier
Represent: tiger
Family: unknown
Looks: "Bite Off" (食い千切れ, kuichigire). Upon calling out the release command, Ggio's appearance changes slightly. He becomes more tiger-like, with a much-less feminine appearance. He gains red stripes on his cheeks and forehead. His hollow mask becomes slightly elongated at the back, with the saber teeth being slightly more pronounced. His white jacket continues down into a black-embroidered white loincloth, with large black stripes running along the sides of the jacket and running the same pattern continuing down onto his now exposed legs, which is now concealed in a more form-fitting white material that stops at the thigh. His feet becomes fur-covered and cat-like. His knees and elbows are covered in a blond fur. The most pronounced change is, with the transformation, he gains long squared-off blades on each wrist. His braid grows to become very thick and long, hanging down to his knees, stripped blond and black with a squared-off blade similar to the ones on his wrist, hanging off the end. He also seems to be able to control the braid

Name: Tigre Estoque El Sable
State: Ressurrecion
Description: By lifting his right blade up to the sky as it glows his spiritual energy rises as he declares "Tigre Estoque El Sable", (虎牙迅風·大劍 (ティグレストーク·エルサブル) tiguresutoku eru saburu; Spanish for "Tiger Rapier The Saber", Japanese for "Tiger Fang Swift Wind Great Swords") which forces Ggio to make another transformation into a larger, muscular and more feral-like beast. Ggio calls this transformation the "battle form" of Tigre Estoque. In this form his muscle mass increases greatly with the white parts of his original look become a brown color. He gains a small blond mane around his neck. His entire forearms and hands are replaced with large blades. While the red stripes on his face become more prominent with a widows peak running down the bridge of his nose. Even his braid becomes longer. His veins prominently pop over all the of this new form due to his being enraged in order to supply the power for the transformation.
History and RP Sample
History: Ggio first appears along with Baraggan and the rest of his Fracción in the fake Karakura town to do battle with the Gotei 13. However, once Aizen, Ichimaru, and Tōsen are trapped in Yamamoto's Shikai, Baraggan himself decides to give all orders. Ggio and the rest of Baraggan's Fracción then pull out a throne made of bones for him to sit upon and awaits his orders.
After discovering the four pillars that are keeping the real Karakura Town in Soul Society, Baraggan sends four members of his Fracción to a different pillar to destroy them, stating that if they are going to guard them using ants he will just have to send dragons to crush them.[1] Ggio does not partake in the following battles and remains by Baraggan's side. In the ensuing battles, one by one, the four Fracción are defeated and killed, much to Ggio and Baraggan's surprise.
Baraggan, furious at having lost over half of his Fracción, prepares to take action himself but is persuaded by Ggio, who pleads with him to leave the remaining Shinigami to him and Nirgge Parduoc. Baraggan agrees. Soifon overhears this and rushes to challenge Ggio, thus the two begin to battle.[2]
Soifon vs. Ggio Vega.
Ggio's attitude somewhat mirrors that of his adversary, commenting on her lieutenant Marechiyo Ōmaeda losing ground against his companion, to which Soifon responded that she does not mind, and that Ōmaeda should learn from his loss. After Soifon pins him down with a binding spell, she releases her zanpakutō, Suzumebachi, confident in victory and prepares to finish him off.[3] Ggio, however, calmly creates a Cero, destroying the wall he was pinned against and uses Sonído to get behind her. Ggio criticizes her for not simply flash stepping and finishing him off quickly, something he mockingly states that he would have done. He then delivers a powerful kick, sending her crashing into a building below and, after correctly identifying her as the captain of the second division and special forces, releases his Zanpakutō (accidentally killing Nirgge).[4] His released form initially seemed to be too much for Soifon to take, and her lieutenant, Marechiyo Ōmaeda, attempted to intervene. When Ōmaeda grabs him to give his captain a shot, Ggio prepares to fire a Cero but is stopped by Soifon, who states that she was simply examining an Arrancar's released form in preparation for the fights against the Espada.[5]
After Soifon prepares to fight him "for real", Ggio releases what he calls the "battle form" of Tigre Estoque, Tigre Estoque El Sable, and transforms into a larger beast. However, before he can do anything, he is killed when Soifon used Suzumebachi's Death in Two Steps ability on him. Although it appears as if she struck two different areas of his body (his chest and his back), she had pierced the same spot on his right lung from both sides of his body. This shows that Suzumebachi's ability takes effect not through point of entry but rather point of actual surface contact, referring to the part touching the tip of Suzumebachi when it stops moving inside the target. He is the sixth and final of Baraggan's Fracción to die.[6

RP Sample: Everything was jagged edges and shards of glass, and she carried it all
inside. She was not the person she had been, no, and she wasn't the person she
thought she had been. If she had been truly good and truly deserving, then
Willow couldn't have pulled her out of heaven. She wouldn't been able to bring
her back.
She wasn't evil and she wasn't worthy, she was something lukewarm, something
puddled and gray and tasteless.
Sometimes, Buffy sat in the basement at the end of the night, her arms
around her knees, contemplating the boxed remains of the Buffy Robot, all
flesh-tinted fragments and plastic wires. There was a metaphor for you, Giles, she
thought.
Metaphors. She remembered studying for her SATs, all round-faced confidence,
so secure, so whole in herself, in comparison to now. And when she moved out
to the dorm room, started studying, thinking, This time, I'll raise my hand.
This time, the teachers will remember me.
Metaphor and simile, count the feet, feel the beat, poetry. Each
time Something happened, she had thought it was the worst thing ever. Angel,
his bad and his good, his absence and reappearance, all of her memories
colored with sweet regret. Her father's long fade away, her mother's illness and
death, Riley, the fight to keep Dawn safe, and then the plunge and the
light---the bright---the peace. Fading now, all those memories of joy, fading just
as the memories of Mom were fading, just as the memory of herself was fading.
Gosh, freshman English finally made sense, now that she couldn't participate
in class. The loss of the self was the worst loss. Everything was blue sky
and bright sunlight and green grass outside, but inside everything was gray.
Disconnected wires.
Nothing made her feel alive, these cruel days, not the fight or her sister,
or appetite. It took all of her energy just to stay in the same place. Just
to maintain an even strain.
She wasn't crazy, and that was the problem.
She said that to Spike, and he gave her a funny smile and called her
"Alice". Called her a lot of things, as she lay under him or on top of him, as she
rode him. Called her, "love," called her, "baby."
She just called him "Spike."
She pulled her new vampire lover over herself like a blanket, pulled him,
tight, tight, over and over in a way she'd never done before, because she
didn't have to be embarrassed or timid or even innocent with Spike. Spike was her
crack and she was an addict, going back to the pipe again and again, because
he dulled all the agonies and silenced the arguments in her mind. Colors, she
saw colors with him, and the wrongness of it just heightened the contrast
between the nights with Spike and the dimness of everything else.
He made her feel alive for just a few moments every night, and she hated
him for it, hated herself, hated herself for running down the path through
the gravestones in heat, crashing into Spike like the waves on the beach.
Crashing.
He let her, he let her, let her call him every filthy name she could summon
up, let her kick at him, punch him, and, laughing, came back for more. He was
more alive than she was and she hated it.
He would be better off if Willow rebuilt the robot. The robot loved him, and
smiled at him, and he...she couldn't believe she was thinking this, that
Spike, this soulless killer, deserved better than her, better than someone who
hurt his feelings in every possible way, and wait, a soulless vampire with
feelings? It didn't compute and she refused to think about it.
She could almost believe he loved her.
She put her head in her hands, rocking beside the stained cardboard box of
'bot bits. The basement smelled dank. Soon, she would get up, and arm herself
with stakes, and go out and kill things. Kill the other vampires, the ones
she wasn't fucking.
He was keeping her alive, and she hated him for that. She'd be reckless,
she'd jump into a circle of vamps and stake them all, and the odds always
came out in her favor.
"You're too reckless, Slayer," he'd say, disapprovingly, perched on a
headstone, flicking a cigarette lighter. "One of these days, you won't jump the
right way and someone will end you." He lit a cigarette, and blew a puff of
smoke. "Maybe that's what you want? Suicide by vamp?"
"You're imagining things," Buffy had said. But it was enough. She couldn't
convince herself that she was letting something happen, that she was just
being risky. Holding a mirror to her, that she had to look at, and wasn't she
good with the metaphors these days?
"Do you have fantasies about turning me?" she asked, one night, as she lay
with legs still wrapped around his waist. "Making me a vampire?"
Spike had taken her jaw in one hand, to glare at her. "No. Wouldn't be you.
Wouldn't have your heart. Wouldn't have any heart at all."
"You have one," she said. "You keep saying you love me."
He was speechless for a moment, and she twisted her face out of his grip.
"Kiss me, Spike," she said.
Sometimes, when Spike kissed her, she could almost believe he loved her.
Sometimes, she could almost believe that she still had a heart.
