Gin Ichimaru is the silver-haired Captain of the 3rd Division. He is most recognizable by his constantly narrowed eyes and permanent smile on his face. Gin also talked with a sarcastic tone and mocking politeness, making it very difficult 
for others to trust his word. However, Gin was well aware of this, and seems to enjoy toying with others. To some of the Shinigami, it was no surprise when Gin turned out to be one of the traitors when he, Aizen and Tousen betrayed Soul Society. However, even to his new allies in Heuco Mundo, Gin still remains a mystery whose true motives are impossible to know.
Not much is known about Gin’s past, prior to his joining of the Shinigami in Soul Society. It is known that he had saved a young Rangiku Matsumoto’s life once when she was still an orphan in the slums. It is for this reason, that Rangiku is one of the few Shinigami who may still harbor some hope for Gin. For others, like Rukia Kuchiki, Gin is a simply a creature of pure evil. She has stated that she has feared Gin 
from the first time she met him. Rukia also mentioned that talking with Gin felt like a snake was coiling around her neck.
Gin’s Zanpakutou is called Shinso and resembles a normal wakizashi (short sword) in its sealed state. The Shikai command is “shoot to kill” which triggers the blade of Shinso to glow white and extend rapidly. The blade generates tremendous force while extending and is able to maintain its rigidity and power, thus allowing Gin to whip his sword in wide arcs and attack multiple enemies.
