First Appearance: Manga chapter | Anime episode
Neliel Tu Oderschvank, or simply Nel Tu, first appeared as a childlike female Arrancar encountered by Ichigo and his party in the desert of Hueco Mundo. She is accompanied by friendly Hollows Dondochakka Bilstin and Pesche Guatiche, and their large pet, Bawabawa. Nel has flowing green hair and her Hollow mask is in the 
shape of a small cartoonish skull which she wears on her head like a helmet. The skull is missing several teeth and has a large crack in it. Nel also has a scar running down from her forehead, and a pink marking that runs horizontally across her face below the eyes. Nel has a fear of Shinigami, believing them to be evil. However, she develops a strong attachment towards Ichigo after they meet.
Nel Tu was originally an adult Arrancar who served in Aizen’s army as the 3rd Espada. However, despite being such a high ranking Espada, Nel Tu was continuosly being challenegd by fellow Esapada Nnoitra Jiruga who couldn’t accept that a female was stronger than himself. Nel Tu won every one of their duels but never killed Nnoitra stating that she does not want to murder those weaker than her, but this only made Nnoitra even angrier. Nnoitra then teamed up with Szayel Aporro Granz in a plot to oust Nel Tu. Granz reverted Nel Tu’s Fraccions, Dondochakka Bilstin and Pesche Guatiche, back from Arrcanar to Hollows by forcefully removing their Hollow masks. While Nel Tu was distracted by this event, Nnoitra attacked her from behind, landing a savage blow to her head and cracking her Hollow mask. However, Nel Tu did not die but instead reverted to a childlike state. She also developed amnesia due to the injury was unable to remember what had occurred. Nel Tu did not revert back to her former self until she witnessed Ichigo being heavuly injured by Nnoitra during their incursion into Las Noches.
Nel Tu possesses the unique ability to swallow the Cero attacks of other Arrcanar and fire it back at them at double the force by adding her own energy to the attack. She is even able to do this while in her child form, but the effort exhausts her. Nel Tu also has the odd ability to heal others with her vomit (which she calls saliva). Gamuza is the name of Nel Tu’s Zanpakuto, and its release command is “declare.” The release transforms Nel Tu into an armored centaur, and the sword itself transforms into a double-ended lance. Nel Tu can perform a powerful attack called “Lanzador Verde” (Spanish for “green spearman”) where she throws the spear at extreme speed at her enemy.
