- Character PersonalityFor the most part, Tomoyo is a very cold and concise person. She is considered by most rather unemotional and disconnected from others. She does not like hanging out with people and he will rarely doing things for people unless ordered. However beyond all of this Tomoyo is a very calm, caring and warm person and if you are in desperate need of help she is willing to help. This shines through her ice box very seldom though. Tomoyo has devoted her life to combat and understands and respects that, however she can not stand for innocent lives to be caught in the fray. She feels as though people should be able to do with their lives what they want and if someone kills an innocent they are taking that right away. Tomoyo is firm believer in following the law and as such will uphold the law of the Gotei 13 above most anything. The only law more important is the law of the 2nd Division which she places above anything else. Tomoyo on missions only cares about the objective and if people get in the way she has no qualms about cutting them down, and because of this she prefers to perform missions alone. This way if people are harmed she won't have to deal with the burden.

- Bio: Tomoyo was born, into a nice, Japanese family. Her father had a job and her mother was home with her for all of her infancy and early childhood. While she didn't know this, being the blissfully ignorant youth that she was, her father was quite under-appreciated at his work and her mother hadn't finished high school, and as such couldn't get a good job. But she didn't know this. And her parents cared about her, which was all that mattered to a child of her youth. With a family that cared for her, it didn't even register in her young mind that there might have been some sort of trouble within her family, turmoil brewing and tensions rising. None of that mattered. Throughout her early years, Tomoyo was happy and brilliant. The teachers knew she was brilliant, the other students knew she was brilliant. On top of that, she was good at sports, and quite pretty. At this age, Tomoyo was the kid everyone wanted to be, to say the least. A happy family, a pretty face, a brilliant mind, a strong body, boys adored her and girls envied her. Even as an elementary school child. At age 9, her father was offered a job overseas, in America. Since it was a much better paying job than his current employment, her parents packed up and moved without even consulting young Tomoyo. Thus, she was uprooted from her life and launched into a totally new one.
In America, Tomoyo adopted the American name "Tammy". Learning English and doing well in school wasn't a problem for Tammy, after all she had always done so well in her studies back in Japan, she had the highest scores in her English class. Here, though she could do well in her studies, Tammy could not fit in as she had overseas. For the rest of Elementary and Middle School, Tammy was alone. Of course, she got As and exceeded in her school work, but she was still unable to fit in. Every now and again, the "Asian" crowd would try to talk with her, but every time Tammy only found that she was awkward and different from all the rest. And so she was alone. Neither of her parents knew about any of this; her mother had found fulltime employment, though the work was poor, and her father found that even though he was earning more money, he was working so much that he hardly ever had time with his family. Tammy spent long nights, home alone, waiting for her parents who would never show up. TV dinners became her best friend, at this age. But in March of her 8th Grade year, her life changed drastically.
One day, her mother did not come home. Neither Tammy nor her father thought anything of it; she was probably just working late again. They didn't find out that she had died in a car accident on her way home from work. The funeral was silent, and afterwards was still silent. Tammy and her father built a shrine to honor their mother, but with their busy new American schedules, only Tammy could find the time to pray every day. Her father found other ways to cope with his grief; he began to drink. From there, Tammy's 8th Grade year became the traditional "mother dies story": her father beat her, raped her, swore at her, the works. That is, when he was home. He only was home once, if even that, a week. Now, Tammy welcomed the silence. Of course, this all sounds like one of those crappy stories that you have to read in 7th grade, like "Out of the Dust" (at least I didn't have her accidentally pour burning kerosene on her mom, right?), so just a disclaimer that the rest of her life IS NOT just "pity me, pity me, my life is terrible". In fact, the start of high school changed her life, for the better.
With high school, Tammy discovered all the various clubs and activities that were available to students. No longer would she spend long, lonely nights at her house, but rather she could travel from club to club until she found a group to fit in with. First was the anime club, but Tammy soon discovered that they were all weebos who die their hair pink. Next was the FCA (she was mildly religious and an athlete)... Nothing really to say there. Then, she tried the karate club. Of course, once again it was full of weebos, and they were all weaklings, but Tammy quickly discovered her love for fighting. Boxing club, kendo club, wrestling club, Tammy dominated all of these. While the girls thought she was weird for participating in all those manly sports, she quickly began to fit in with the guys. For the first time since moving to America, Tammy had a group of friends; and she had beaten every single one of them in any of her various activities. Of course, she soon began to receive invitations to any number of parties and activities, after all many of the boys whom she had proved that she was stronger than were quite popular. Starting then, Tammy's life took a turn for the better.
Of course, her dad was still pretty shitty at home. But honestly, that didn't matter to Tammy now that she had found a place to fit in. A pity that she was killed by him in a drunken rage on the night of April 2nd, halfway through her Sophomore year, without even getting to say goodbye to any of her friends.
Needless to say, as a spirit Tammy was bound to her high school. Day in and day out, she would watch her friends come and go from school. Of course, they all remembered her and they all missed her. But she could not here them, and all she saw were her friends, moving on with their lives. Honestly, she had no idea how long she spent as a spirit, how long she watched her friends come and go. Well, that's not necessarily true. While she could not keep track of time as a spirit, she watched them go through the next few years of high school, and she watched every one of her friends graduate; she watched them all achieve what she would never be able to achieve. She became cold and uncaring, blaming her father, who was sentenced to death by electric chair, for her not being with her friends. But in a way, it's funny that she didn't become a hollow at any point during all of this; her spiritual power must have been strong enough that she was able to resist, if only for a few years. After all of her friends had graduated, the chains that bound her to her school broke; it turned out that her only regret was that she wasn't able to finish school with them, that she wasn't able to stand by their side as they graduated. A Shinigami came along and she was sent to Soul Society, with no recollection of any of her life.
As said, in Soul Society Tomoyo had no recollection of her human life. Once again, she was Samurakami Tomoyo, and she lived with only faint memories, such as her American name, her love for fighting, the reasoning why she had such a cold heart. In the Rukongai district, Tomoyo began to fight. Pretty much right away, she picked up a sword, pulled her hair back, and fought against all of the strongest men of the districts. Tomoyo wore men's clothes, and quite honestly the vast majority of people she defeated didn't even know whether she was a man or a woman. But a few did, and among them was a young, cocky Shinigami of the 2nd Division. Of course, he complimented her skill, especially considering that she was a woman (to which he received a sharp blow to the head from the blunt edge of her sword), and he recommended that she become a Shinigami and join the 2nd Division. This idea interested Tomoyo, and so she decided that she may as well become a Shinigami, as she had already defeated all the strongest warriors of Rukongai. Not 24 hours later, Tomoyo passed the entrance exam and was now a student at the Soul Reaper Academy.
Back to awkward school life? Nope. This time around, Tomoyo was fully prepared for what school life would offer. Already, Tomoyo was extremely skilled at swordmanship and excelled in her Zanjutsu classes. Hakuda was another skill which was easy for Tomoyo to pick up, after all in the human world she hadn't just unsheathed a sword whenever she got into a fight with someone. Hoho was a bit more difficult, but Tomoyo was athletic enough that she picked up on the skill pretty quickly. And then there was kido. Tomoyo's kido skills were... Dangerous(?) but not in a good way. After her second kido lesson, the teacher decided that she was so extremely unskilled that maybe it would be wisest for her to drop the course and continue through the academy without any knowledge of kido. Of course, this was not allowed, especially since this was more for the instructor's sake than for Tomoyo's (after all, the instructor was just about to grow his eyebrows back when he made the special request). Tomoyo, of course, didn't mind her lack of skill in this area, after all she exceeded in all other areas and felt that there would be no harm in being a little less skilled in one respect.
Of course, this meant that pretty soon, Tomoyo began to get bored in the academy. Since she was not even bothering with kido, and she was so powerful in all the other areas, she had absolutely nothing to do. Initially, she tried to graduate early only to discover that with her lack of proficiency in kido she was no eligible. Annoyed and frustrated, Tomoyo decided that she would just live out the next few years of her life extremely bored. Of course, then she discovered the different phases of Zanpakuto. In her sleep one night, her Zanpakuto spirit visited her. He told her his name, and then Tomoyo woke up with a named Zanpakuto. It may sound cheesy, but this was how Tomoyo obtained Shikai. Her year of boredom was spent training her Shikai, until it was all but mastered. The next year, with Shikai already mastered, Tomoyo was once again bored. But now she could graduate, and she went straight on to the 2nd Division with a slight smirk about her face...
Fifty years have passed since Tomoyo had become the Squad 2 Captain and alot has happened in that time. The Rogues of Time were destroyed and life had become a bit more peaceful so to say, with a few knicks in it like the appearance of a few certain Hollow. But she was satisfied with how things were turning out. She was developing a new technique and she was starting to open up to a few people life was good. But there's no telling how long this peace will last....
