Appearance as of most recent chapter:

Yamamoto Ichigo stands head and shoulders above all others, possessing an immense height of three hundred and twenty five centimeters, due to the effects of an uncontrolled Ossmodula organ, which began growing due to the effects of his ability, Spoils of War. His eyes lack both whites and pupil, being a fierce amber gold color. He is heavily muscled, due to heavy strength training, his build not indicating his surprising speed and flexibility, appearing to most to be the typical musclebound brute, though his muscle structure is well balanced for combat. His hair is a dark reddish-orange, and reaches past his waist in a spiky mane, down near his knees. Yamamoto regards the length of his hair as a challenge to his opponents, and will cut it only reluctantly, if it threatens to get long enough to be stepped on. Two elk antlers of over a meter a height, possessing thirteen tines, spread from his head with a width of nearly two meters, beginning just above his human ears. He also possesses a feline tail, whiskers, and feline ears. He uses shapeshifting to maintain his original, human ears, though they are hidden beneath his hair, so that his enemies do not suspect that even if they remove one set of his ears that he may still hear. Upon his back are wings similar to that of a Balrog.

He is often in full armor, which is patterned after the armor of Senbonzakura's spirit and Tenken's Bankai, though his armor differs in color. The plate is mainly blood red and void black, with emerald trim on the plates. The emerald later had a center of pink similar to the color of Senbonzakura's blades added to the trim, creating two lines of emerald on either side of the pink for the trim of the armor. When not wearing armor, Yamamoto Ichigo wears a uniform of toughened leather similar to that of Soi Fon or Shūhei Hisagi. Other than that, he wears the traditional Shinigami uniform, though lacking sleeves. His haori is supplemented by a cloak of wolf fur, the fur being pure white in color. Quivers of arrows are held by loops sewn onto the cloak, providing ammunition for his bow, one of several divine weapons in his possession, though his bow is the only divine weapon he will consistently carry with him, the others waiting for his summons.

For weaponry, Yamamoto Ichigo tends to be diverse. He wears several combat and throwing knives strapped to his legs, both when wearing armor and not. Two bandoliers are crossed over his chest, with the sheathes of many of his zanpakutō tied to them, along with sheathes for other weapons, among them a naginata. He carries more knives at his belt, and also carries a pair of tiger claws that he may attach to his gauntlets, the claws extending half a meter past his knuckles, the weapons themselves usually worn at his belt. A Quincy cross hangs at his wrist, and his divine bow, the only divine weapon he constantly carries, is slung across his back when not in his hand.

Personality:

Yamamoto is very proud and dutiful, holding his duty as a Shinigami to be above all other things. For this he personally cares for, he will fight to the death without a second thought, but for those he does not know, he will usually be more cautious about throwing himself into battle. He cares deeply for every member of his division, and will not hesitate to lay down his life for even the newest recruit if necessary. Yamamoto is extremely honorable, to the point where if his pride is offended or his honor insulted, he will not hesitate to challenge the offending party to a duel or kill them, depending on circumstance. If he gives his word, he will keep it so long as it does not interfere with his duty as a Shinigami or as a noble, and will die to uphold his sworn word as a matter of principle. Without fail, Yamamoto rises before dawn to get his paperwork done, so he might train later. He is highly considerate of his comrades, being ready to assist them with any request they might have. In battle, Yamamoto is commonly described as 'a bloodthirsty maniac,' though he is still a highly effective commander, and will lead his division into battle with consummate skill, leading by example where possible once he has gauged the flow of combat.

Interests:

Bonsai, sake, dancing. Yamamoto Ichigo often throws parties where the sake is allowed to flow freely, and he is frequently found in the bars outside his division when not working. In the rest of his free time, Yamamoto practices bonsai as a calming art or enjoys dancing, having found an interest in it thanks to Sode no Shirayuki. He is also frequently found training or fighting Kenpachi Zaraki, and practices painting, calligraphy, the creation of tapestries through both weaving and needlepoint, and tea ceremonies as is expected of a member of a noble house. He has also recently begun to enjoy wine as well as sake, swiftly becoming particular about its taste. He possesses great disdain for wines unable to age for at least two hundred years without spoiling, considering them unrefined and unbalanced. He also regards it as unsuited to him due to the near immortality all Shinigami possess, as wines that will not last for more than a century are 'young' in his estimation, and would not have the balanced flavors he enjoys. He will not, for this reason, drink mundane wine from the world he was born in, instead having to find his preferred drinks among the Otherworlds. He has set a bounty on any good wine brought back from the Otherworlds that he has not seen before.

Abilities outside of zanpakutō use:

Master Archer: Yamamoto will rarely miss his shot and may fire many times in a split second, even using a mundane bow and limited to mere human abilities. Using a Quincy bow or his divine bow, Yamamoto may outpace a machine gun in his rate of fire. If not limited to human strength and using a bow suited to his strength that is not either of the previous weapons, Yamamoto's arrows will strike with the force of cruise missiles. His arrows will strike with even more force using his preferred bows.

Hakuda Expert: Though unable to be called a master, as he does not spend all his time practicing solely Hakuda, Yamamoto is highly proficient, being capable of fighting Soi Fon, a master of Hakuda, with her own art on even grounds for up to an hour before being overwhelmed, combat experience assisting in providing this capability, as well as study of the art to highly advanced levels.

Kidō Expert: Though unable by his own declaration to be called a master at Kidō, Yamamoto is extremely capable, being able to challenge Bankai with Kidō successfully. He has the proficiency of a master with high level spells, though requires incantations for full power. He has refined his capabilities with experience, blending Kidō and Zanjutsu highly successfully.

Ninjutsu and Fūinjutsu Adept: Though not fully practiced in either art, Yamamoto learned much of them in the Otherworlds, specializing in those parts that interested him, and is capable of using them as surprise abilities whenever he needs an ace in the hole. He is also capable of genjutsu, though disdains most genjutsu, regarding them as inferior attempts to match Kyoka Suigetsu.

Divine abilities: Yamamoto possesses divine powers relating to war and death currently, with others beginning to appear due to the efforts of worshippers. He is capable of utilizing them for simple tasks, though has not had the centuries to refine them necessary for the truly complex applications of divine power to be possible.

Demonic abilities: As death is also part of the demonic realm, Yamamoto possesses certain capabilities with demonic power. He is able to apply it to simple tasks, but is not yet capable of using this ability for its full potential. He is also more limited in his demonic capabilities than he is as a divine being, due to few acknowledging him as such and including it in his 'legend.'

Hoho Master: Yamamoto is capable of immense feats with high speed movement techniques, with only the most experienced having a hope of exceeding his speed. Most captains cannot even manage to keep him within sight during a race, for he has both skill and power to burn on shunpo, along with immense natural speed. When fighting, there are very few that can track his movements, so instinct is the best way to counter his blows. If instinct is unreliable, his foes will have to anticipate his blows ahead of time.

High Reiatsu levels: Ichigo, due to naturally high reserves, a gap in his soul that forces his soul to constantly generate more power whenever possible in an attempt to fill it, which is impossible, and having multiple zanpakutō, has reserves that exceed that of all the other captains in Shikai combined through the use of only one of his Shikai. Now that his body is able to handle his full power, he may unleash truly immense amounts of energy, and crush anyone weaker than a captain from existence with a mere pulse of his reiatsu should he feel like it, though the ability is indiscriminate. The only person to still be standing when he released his full strength once as a test was Yamamoto Genryūsei Shigekuni.

Psyker powers: Through Spoils of War, Ichigo attained the powers of a psyker from Magnus the Red. He is as yet untrained, but possesses high proficiency with simple abilities such as summoning warp fire and warp lightning. He frequently meditates to control his power, requiring intense mental discipline to shut out the warp, so as not to be overwhelmed by that might.

High Speed Regeneration: Unless his head is destroyed, Ichigo may regenerate any wound.

Conscious creation of Material Form: As a divine being, Ichigo may change his form at will, resulting in his consciousness shaping his body from reishi as a shell to contain itself. Due to this, if his body is destroyed, unless someone makes a concerted effort to keep him from making a new body, he may form his body anew from reishi, though he requires eight days, eight hours, eight minutes, and eight seconds to do so, which he regards as immensely inconvenient, and he will go out of his way to kill someone who makes him do this.

Master of Weapons: Ichigo is highly capable with any weapon. He possesses the skill of a master with any weapon he is given, thanks to intense training and the zanpakutō Eien no Burēdo.

Unsurpassed Swordsman: Due to intense training with the zanpakutō Hagane no Hoshi, Ichigo is a swordsman with few, if any equals, and no betters he has yet run across in swordsmanship. He has improved upon the Tsubame Gaeshi, the peak of Sasaki Kojirō's art, being able to deliver up to five strikes with a single blade in the exact same moment, the blade existing in five places at once. However, he may do this only with a sword as of yet.

Time Control: Due to learning the basics of Baraggan's powers from him, Ichigo may immensely hasten aging.

Master of Tactics and Strategy: Ichigo has undergone training in leading troops, and is highly competent as both a tactician and a strategist. He may command a force as a master tactician, proving adept at short term planning in battle, using his skill at tactics to alter the battle's flow directly, or command as a master strategist, creating plans before battle that take nearly all possible variables into account and are sufficiently flexible to allow his subordinates to modify the plan as needed for unexpected circumstances. Usually, Ichigo will create multiple strategies that allow his forces to respond more appropriately to their opponents, with multiple options open to deal with any anticipated variables and most unanticipated variables.

Reishi control: Ichigo is capable of gathering and manipulating reishi to most ends.

Instinct: Ichigo has honed his combat instincts until they are highly sensitive to any change in the flow of battle or alterations in the environment around him. He is extremely hard to ambush, and his instinct is very near precognition, allowing him to make plans for fights that may involve the next dozen moves his opponent or opponents will make, and he is very rarely wrong about even a single one of those moves. He may also apply it to tactics and strategy, though his predictive abilities are slightly degraded by having to calculate the next moves from larger groups.

Stealth Adept: Ichigo is highly capable at the use of stealth, though not yet a master. He is capable of both detecting and hiding from others to a high degree, unseen movement being a favored skill of his.

Eye of the Mind (True): Allows calm analysis of the enemy's capabilities and all possible actions to take, and when paired with instinct, Ichigo is capable of finding a way to win almost any battle, even a 1% chance of victory being good enough to allow Ichigo to win almost without fail. He may also read combat more effectively, aiding the near precognition of his instincts.

Kenpachi's Curse: Ichigo becomes consumed by bloodlust in battle, remaining an effective commander but preferring to simply fight alone, drawing great strength and resistance to pain from the rage of the Kenpachi. He is best described as 'a bloodthirsty maniac,' while under the influence of the curse, and will fight for the sake of fighting rather than for any real reason.

Quincy arts: Ichigo possesses sufficient skill to use Vollständig, and may brute force most Quincy abilities if necessary.

Hollow arts: Ichigo is adept with learning how to manipulate reiatsu into the native or developed abilities of Hollows, though he does not often use them. He is moderately skilled with the use of Cero.

Skill Replication: Ichigo is highly adept at picking up skills quickly from an opponent, though some skills, unsuited to him, may not be used later due to difficulty comprehending how they work without an actual user of the skill present. Suitable skills will swiftly become permanent, some being used reflexively shortly after they are first learned.

Discernment of the Poor: Ichigo cannot be deceived in any fashion. He will always perceive his opponent's true name and character.

Knowledge of Respect and Harmony: Ichigo will swiftly adapt to the enemy combat style, and perceive attacks with ease, being impossible to deceive as to how his opponent will strike next. However, the opponent cannot adapt to or perceive his own attacks.

Swift Learning: Ichigo learns any art he is interested in swiftly, quickly developing his skills in that area to a high level with minimal instruction.

Skilled teacher: When instructing another in an art he knows, Ichigo is a highly capable instructor, causing the student to swiftly learn the art for themselves.

Non-zanpakutō armament:

His naginata, a spirit weapon possessing no potential ability to become a zanpakutō, but still capable of channeling Kidō, energy attacks made from raw reiatsu, though such are unspecialized, relying on the powers inherent to his reiatsu, and purifying Hollows. He carries knives and tiger claws, occasionally carrying other weapons when he thinks they'll be needed, along with a Quincy cross to complete his array of spiritual weaponry.

He also carries an immense bow carved from the heartwood of a tree that is many hundreds of thousands of years old on the primary world where he is worshipped as a divine being, the wood for the bow given freely by a powerful wood elemental which has existed for nearly two and a half million years. The age of the elemental and Ichigo's own divine power have infused the bow with divine power and authority equal to the primary weapon of a major god.

Most spirits, if given the time, will transition from simple elemental spirit to minor god after two hundred thousand years, minor gods will transition to major god after another four million, eight hundred thousand years, and major gods will become primordial gods after another forty five million years. If worshipped, the transition becomes far faster, the prayers of worshippers fueling the growth. Also, a god may be born to a certain rank and continue from there under the natural process. If a spirit begins as a human soul that gathers power to start the transition without a grant of power from some other being, the spirit will take ten thousand years to acquire sufficient power to be called an elemental spirit. Due to the power of this weapon, the arrows from the bow may crack mountains in two with a single shot, and the bow will never miss its target, no matter how hard they try to evade. The quivers for the arrows of the bow will never empty, and the effective range of the weapon is twenty five thousand kilometers, which an arrow, released at maximum force from the weapon, may cross in five seconds, giving scant warning to anyone who is targeted by Yamamoto. He loans replicas of the bow to worshippers on occasion should they be sufficiently devout.

Natural abilities:

Immense Strength: Ichigo has immense natural strength, enhanced by reiatsu and training, to the point where he can destroy anything smaller than a mountain through the air pressure from a swing of one of his swords.

High speed: Ichigo's size and muscle belies his true speed, which is naturally near to that of the shunpo of the average tenth seat.

High intelligence: Ichigo is highly intelligent naturally, being capable both in kinetic learning and in academic learning, using this ability and an excellent memory to acquire information on all possible foes for later usage.

Noble Phantasm abilities:

Spoils of War: When a worthy enemy is defeated, Ichigo may choose one ability of theirs he desires to add to his own list of abilities. If he does not choose one, one will be selected for him. However, any ability he receives will be of high strength, possibly stronger than it was with its original wielder, to compensate for the loss of the ability to gain powers from all foes.

Attraction of Power: A comrade of Ichigo with two stats of a lower level than his and one ability lower than his rank, if the female's strength is somewhat comparable to his own at the time, and she is not already committed, as well as being compatible with Ichigo, she will begin to be drawn to him above other males, eventually becoming highly attracted to him. If Ichigo is restraining his strength, that is the strength level that the female must be comparable to, not his full strength.

Trivia:

Ichigo greatly enjoys traditional foods of Japan, regarding any dish invented within the last century as too new to be any good, without the refinements to the recipe that comes from many decades of preparing the food. He shares a similar attitude about the food of other nations, but is willing to try some newer foods from other countries if he trusts the chef and they assure him that the food is good. However, he will not budge on the matter of trying any Japanese food invented before 1900. Ichigo is extremely particular about the food he eats, believing that eating well is a necessity for a Shinigami to do their job. Chefs who make poor food may be killed for their 'crime.'

Ichigo is entirely uncaring about the lives of bureaucrats and those who are incompetent. He will not actively slaughter them, but if such people cross his path, he will not hesitate to kill them, regarding it as greatly simplifying his life and improving the world. Those nobles who are arrogant and attempt to rely entirely on their heritage rather than personal deeds, Ichigo will kill reflexively.

Contrary to his disregard for the lives of incompetents, bureaucrats, and arrogant nobles, Ichigo will treat any civilian who does not fall into those categories with respect, and socialize with them as best as he may, considering that he is wholly a warrior in the Seireitei Guard rather than a fellow civilian, and being a noble himself, he has few points of reference with either civilians or commoners.

Ichigo regards anyone trying to improve themselves as a person worthy of respect and aid.

Ichigo regards good and evil as mostly subjective things, having the personal philosophy that death should be impartial regarding such things. He recognizes certain things as being evil or good, and will destroy evil where he finds it, though he will avoid seeking it. He by far prefers to seek out and destroy corruption and incompetence, which he regards as worse than acts of evil, seeing them as enabling these acts. He will, without hesitation, do whatever is needed to acquire vital information, intimidate enemy forces, or attain victory, shying from only impractical or inefficient methods of doing such for the most part, though he will not commit any act he regards as evil.

Ichigo considers rape as an unforgivable crime, going to any length necessary to kill those who commit it. Other acts he regards as inefficient, impractical, or evil are torture for information, attempting to save people from themselves, bringing an unwanted child into existence, attempting to protect everyone rather than just those important to a person, and wasting the lives of soldiers.

Quotes:

"Fear. Despair. Know your limits, and do not attempt to surpass them." -To Isshin Shiba, upon use of Zanka no Tachi

"I am a Kenpachi. The more pain I'm in, the more fun I'm having in a fight. So spill my blood. Break my bones. All you'll do is cause me to enjoy this even more." -To a nameless member of the Royal Guard, moments before Ichigo killed him by smashing his skull

"I am Shinigami. Firstborn child of life. Death come to the door, to take the soul to its rest." -To Pyrias, a god of destruction, after the use of Allslayer

"If it's me, it would be a waste not to dance no matter what." -To Sode no Shirayuki

Well, this is done, and will be updated as needed. Other characters may have profiles done, and I will add all needed details over time. Hope you all find it useful for keeping track of Ichigo's powers to some extent.
