He has medium-length black hair with silver streaks running through it. He also has green eyes that change color to black on occasion.. His teeth are his most distinguishing features as when he smiles people can see his large, sharp canines. Naraga usually wears a black robe with a hood and a cloth covering his face below his eyes along with black jeans and black and white Converse and when fighting or in spiritual places such as the soul society he wears his gruesomely torn shinigami robes which happen to have no left sleave showing his tattoos. He can also be found listening to music through one ear from an mp3 player, however no one knows what kind of music he listens to.

Personality: Naraga's personality is quiet but somewhat mischiefous and enjoys frightening people. He often pranks his friends and has a slightly distrubing hint of energy when fighting caused by his "hard to control" hollow but is much more serious around superiors or people he is unfamiliar with. He is very modest around people when it comes to himself and doesn't enjoy people who brag about their achievements. Around women he is somewhat of a flirt but is serious when needed. When alone he adapts a more carefree altitude and often procrastinates less important things. Naraga is very mysterious, proof of his inability to talk about his past. Naraga enjoys psychology to the point of trying to learn his friends minds such as their fears, likes, and feelings without asking. He is extremely intrigued with fear because of it's ability to dishearten even the bravest people and exploit their weaknesses. He is also an extreme believer in equality. He believes no one is higher or lower than anyone else. This belief also has caused his hatred of arrogance.
Inner Hollow Personality: Naraga's Inner Hollow is extremely insane and disturbed, as he laughs at anything disturbing or sad. He enjoys fighting very much and is very intimidating. The hollow is also very aggresive and is also very controlling towards Naraga. Although he is controlled by Naraga some of his traits leak into Naraga's mind causing him to act somewhat like his hollow such as laughing and smiling frequently. When fighting his mind is completely oblivious to pain and allies, often attacking friends.
Inner Hollow Appearance: Naraga's Inner hollow looks like an intimidating version of Naraga. He wears the torn shinigami uniform but the colors of it are inverted. Also instead of showing Naraga's face the hollows mask replaces a face with a perminant smile of evil. He is also never relaxed. Naraga's hollow has spikes coming from his shoulders, elbows, knees, and forearms which add to his intimidating appearance.
Fighting Style: Naraga likes to kill his opponents quickly and silently usually by breaking their neck or cutting their throat due to his great stealth. On occasion, Naraga will feel an opponent is worthy and engage him/her in a head to head duel. When fighting head to head, Naraga usually starts off using hand to hand combat and targeting the pressure points of his opponent. If he feels his opponent is too powerful for that he advances to his zanpakuto and then to his Hollow Mask if stronger.
Background: Naraga was killed by a drunk teenager at the age of 12. When he was a plus he haunted his killer until he died of cardiac arrest which started his interest in fear and pain. Soon after, he was "buried" by a soul reaper in the area. When he arrived in the soul society he was a loner who only supported himself. As he grew older he became more aware of the suffering of others and began to help them in order to make up for his earlier behavior. Naraga's was obtaining noteriety among the thugs of the Rukongai. Years later, Naraga began to go through strange experiance, such as almost everyone who saw him looked at him like he was some sort of demon. He also began to become more aggresive to people, often beating troublemakers more than required when he fought.
One day when Naraga was passing by a part of the Rukongai near the outer wall he got into a fight with a local gang of trouble makers who were harrasing the people. After beating them he was approached by a man in black and white robes with his hand on his sword. Naraga, acting on instinct took his battle position against the man. Upon being attacked by the man, Naraga easily defeated the man and was about to finish him off when he was stopped by another man who was much older than his counterpart but wore the same clothing. The older man helped the younger man up and began to repremand him for his aggressive actions. While it happened Naraga began to melt away into the crowd but was stopped by the elder man who said he could feel large amounts of spiritual pressure coming from him.Naraga, who was intrigued by his wisdom, asked if he was a soul reaper. The older man, who was a Gotei 13 squad captain confirmed his question and asked if he would like to become a shinigami. Naraga agreed.
Upon obtaining his zanpakuto which was very different compared to others was inrolled in the shinigami academy. In the Shinigami Academy Naraga excelled greatly in hand to hand combat, armed combat, and psychological weaknesses, and was average when it came to kido. Naraga was often isolated from other students due to his intimidating appearance and even frightened some of the instructors. Naraga mainly acceled in stealth combat with his zanpakuto and bare hands and was quite stealthy for his size. He also proved even stronger in head to head fighting often breaking arrogant opponent's limbs "unintentionally".He later graduated and was placed in the 2nd division where he quickly rose up to the rank of Lieutenant.
Naraga was later approached by a strange man who claimed to be from the Rukongai. The man promised to give power to Naraga so he could increase his abilities as a captain. Naraga agreed knowing that he was soon to be Captiain of the 2nd Division once his captain retired. However, to Naraga's surprise the inner hollow that the mysterious man had given him went completly beserk. What followed was complete chaos when the gotei 13 was forced to battle the hollowfied Naraga. While the Shinigami fought hollow Naraga, Naraga was battling against his inner hollow in his inner world. Although he won, Naraga was banished from the Soul Society for his crimes. He now resides with the other Vizards in hopes of securing safety for other souls.
