Shinigami

The Shinigami are the spiritual swordsman who are chosen to guide souls known as Pluses to the afterlife. The Shinigami are the Soul King's strongest defensive power stemming from an organization known as Gotei 13 which consists of powerful and well-trained Shinigami. They are on call warriors who attempt to save those attacked by Hollows but due to the recent invasion of Arrancar the Shinigami's numbers have been dwindling to send any to the Human Realm. This leaves only the most violent attacks on the Shinigami's attention leaving more minor scuffles to sort themselves out when they get around to them. Many claim the Shinigami to be one of the strongest of the known races in this world but many challenge that thought everyday.
