The Buruhanta Clan

The Buruhanta Clan is a mid-tier noble family that resides in the East second district of the Rukongai.

Overview[]

The Buruhanta Family is a noble family that is widely known as "The Heroes of the Soul Society" by a great number of shinigami due to their instruction in the Shinigami Academy being deemed invaluable. The Buruhanta clan are usually characterized by their blue or dark blue hair (minus Mikado, who dyed his hair black) and their sharp features. Their current head, Rentaro Buruhanta, is known as stoic and headstrong but fair man. He's also a compassionate man who has a great deal of empathy for others, which was why he took in Aiku as an adopted son. His wife, Aoihime is a strict, observant but caring woman and was hesitant to take Aiku in because he was from one of the farthest districts out in the Rukon. They have very strong views on morality and show extreme disdain towards people that try to subjugate others and/or mistreat them.

Roles[]

The Buruhanta Clan is a clan that has helped considerably with the training of Shinigami in the academy, most notably Zanjutsu and Hakuda. They have a private Dojo in which anyone who wishes private mentoring can go to, this Dojo is also open to friends of the members of the Buruhanta Family. Their combat/hunting techniques are revered amongst fighters and shinigami within the Soul Society and their most secret techniques are kept only within the family. Their clan members also serve as private bodyguards for other noble families.

History[]

The Buruhanta Clan's history is one that's kept rather private due to the clan's reclusive nature, they're not the type of clan to walk around rubbing their fame in everyone's faces. In fact, they're the opposite and like to blend in among the commoners...except for the younger members. They have a reputation as an honest clan and they sometimes do philanthropic work for the Rukongai. They also try their best to stay out of Soul Society politics as they say that it does nothing but bring about bad tidings and start bad blood.
