History
Approximately 100 years ago, Mashiro was the lieutenant of the 9th Division under then Captain Kensei Muguruma. She, along with Kensei and the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Seats of her division went to investigate the mysterious disappearances in Rukongai. She constantly complained about the fact that they had to investigate when they had no idea what it was that they were looking for, noting that a vanguard of 10 other investigators were already sent prior to their arrival. Her incessant whining only irritated Kensei, which caused his subordinates to have to hold him back to stop him from attacking her. Kensei plainly told her that she wasn't even asked to come along, and told her to just go home. She responded that she is his lieutenant, so she has to follow him. She then fell down on the ground and went into a temper tantrum, screaming about how hungry she was. Kensei decided to ignore her. Kensei was then startled by a Hollow attack. Mashiro, while not taking part in the battle, found 10 empty shihakusho close to where the hollow creature attacked.
Mashiro was unable to grasp the significance of her finding the shihakusho in relation to the mystery of the missing Shinigami. Kensei immediately realized that the ten empty shihakusho must have belonged to the ten members of the vanguard originally sent to investigate, and he sent his men to relay the situation and get help. Later, Mashiro is seen sleeping in the tent, much to the annoyance of Kensei, who couldn't fathom how she was able to sleep at a time of such tension. When Kensei tried to fix her garb so that she wasn't exposing herself, she mumbled, "Kensei, you perv" in her sleep, which made Kensei note that she is even annoying while asleep. Kensei was then alerted by a scream that his team was under attack by some unknown assailant.
When a team of captains and lieutenants were sent out to investigate the disappearance of Kensei's investigation team, Rōjūrō Otoribashi, captain of the 3rd Division was attacked from behind by a Hollowfied Mashiro, who dealt a devastating kick to him, which caused him to hurtle down into the ground below. Shinji Hirako, captain of the 5th Division called out to Mashiro, who took note of him and began to head towards him to initiate another kicking attack, which Shinji blocked with his Zanpakutō. Kidō Corps lieutenant Hachigen Ushōda showed up just in time to stop Mashiro from attacking Shinji by using Bakudō #75: "Gochūtekkan" to restrain her.
The investigation team gathered after the fight to talk about the situation. At that moment, then 12th Division lieutenant Hiyori Sarugaki started coughing and became Hollowfied herself. It was then that a darkness fell around the rescue squad and they were attacked by an unseen assailant. After the attack, the assailant was found to be a masked Kaname Tōsen, Kensei's 6th seat, who was acting under the orders of Sōsuke Aizen. It was revealed that Aizen was the one behind the disappearances and Hollowfication experiments.
Just as Aizen gave the order to kill the Hollowfied Shinigami, 12th Division captain Kisuke Urahara and Kidō Corps captain Tessai Tsukabishi showed up and saved them from destruction. Tessai briefly engaged Aizen, but his attack was blocked, allowing Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, and Tōsen to make their escape. Tessai proceeded to use Forbidden Kidō to preserve and transport the Hollowfied Shinigami to the 12th Division barracks. In his lab, Urahara tried to reverse the process using his recent invention, the Hōgyoku. Unfortunately, the use of the Hōgyoku was only partially successful, not having the desired effect of completely ridding the effected Shinigami of their Hollowfication, instead only halting the consummation of their souls by their inner hollows for the time being.
The next day, Urahara and Tessai were arrested under the orders of the Central 46 Chambers. The Hollowfied Shinigami were sentenced to execution as Hollows. Before any of their sentences could be carried out, both Urahara and Tessai were rescued by 2nd Division captain Yoruichi Shihōin, who brought them to a secret underground area.
Once in the secluded area, Yoruichi revealed that she had also brought the Hollowfied Shinigami, along with the prototype for a new Gigai that Urahara had been working on. Knowing what he must do, Urahara resolved to make ten Reiatsu-blocking Gigai to aid himself, Tessai, and the eight Hollowfication victims in their escape to the real world, where they would attempt to find a way to undo the Hollowfication process
Mashiro first appears when Ichigo Kurosaki arrives at the Vizard Warehouse, planning to "use" them to help him control his inner Hollow. When Love comments on Ichigo being scared Mashiro asks of what, to which Kensei answers Ichigo being afraid of his inner Hollow. She asks what Hiyori is doing when she walks toward the fight between Shinji and Ichigo.
Mashiro is seen shortly asking a exhausted looking Hachi who is trying to keep up the barrier, if he was alright, he tells her no. She witnesses Ichigo's inner Hollow surfaces and nearly chokes Hiyori to death, she, as well as the other Vizard, quickly restrain Ichigo before he can kill her.
Mashiro later returns from shopping with Hachi, while Ichigo is training by himself and the other Vizard are just sitting around. Mashiro tells Love that she bought box lunches and ask him if he wishes to eat now. She then notices the argument Ichigo has been having with Hiyori and asks Love whats wrong with him. Love responds that apparently Ichigo isn't happy with doing the training exercise that Hiyori has set up, considering she didn't really clearly explain it or, why it's necessary.
Mashiro later goes with the other Vizard down into his underground training area. Mashiro waits with the other Vizard while Ichigo's inner Hollow emerges to take control over his body. When Mashiro asks whether they should take away his Zanpakutō. Love states that it would be pointless as doing so would needlessly increase the radius of destruction. When Ichigo defeats his inner Hollow and gains back control over his body he passes out. Mashiro asks Hachi if Ichigo is ok, but he tells her to be quiet.
While Ichigo is training with Hiyori, Kensei is timing how long he can maintain his Hollow Mask. Mashiro asks why is it that Ichigo has to do this, to which Kensei explains that he has to for practice in order for him to maintain his Hollow Mask longer, telling her that she had to do it too. Mashiro simply tells him that she didn't, causing Kensei to become irritated but Shinji tells him its true. Since Mashiro could maintain her Hollow Mask for 15 hours right from the start, she alone has never had to undergo the Hollow retention training. Kensei admits he had forgotten all about it. Mashiro begins to make fun of him enraging him even further causing him to have to be calmed down by Hachi. When Hachi becomes alerted when he detects someone has slipped inside his barrier. The other Vizard are surprised at the possibility. Orihime Inoue shows up and is revealed to Hachi and the other Vizard to be a culprit, they are shown to be quite shocked to see that a simple human could perform such a feat.
Later Mashiro is shown having a temper tantrum because Hachi is helping Orihime fix her powers, complaining that she is so annoying. This causes Kensei to once again become irritated, but they are both calmed by Rose who states that it is very rare to come across others with powers similar to theres and that he feels as though their family is growing.
Mashiro is later seen leaving the warehouse with the other Vizard to fight in the upcoming conflict.
She is then seen with the rest of the Vizard arriving at the fake Karakura Town, intercepting Sōsuke Aizen, Gin Ichimaru, and Kaname Tōsen's release from Captain-Commander Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto's Jōkaku Enjō. When Shinji Hirako asks his fellow Vizard if they have anyone in the Gotei 13 whom they want to speak to, Mashiro states that she doesn't but why did he ask. When Shinji returns from speaking to Yamamoto thehuge Hollow creature spews forth a large horde of Gillian-class Menos from its mouth, Mashiro is among the Vizard when they put on their masks to prepare for battle.
Mashiro stands ready for battle as the other Vizard draw their Zanpakutō and attack the Gillian. Mashiro displays her increased physical strength by defeating a cadre of four Menos using her "Mashiro Kick" to easily destroy their masks.
After Kensei kills the last Gillian, Mashiro complains that she was going to get the last one, and Kensei tells her to shut up and stop complaining because he is going to give her the big one. Mashiro looks over to Fūrā and is happy, telling Kensei she loves him for it as she rushes off to face the creature. She confronts Wonderweiss Margera face to face, who is seated in front of Fūrā. But instead of attacking him she uses her "Super Mashiro Kick" on Fūrā, instantly killing the huge Hollow, surprising Wonderweiss.
As the smoke clears Wonderweiss is shown disturbed at the death of his pet, and he opens his mouth to fire a Cero at Mashiro. Before he can fire the Cero, Mashiro is seen through the clearing smoke, and Mashiro kicks him with both legs, hitting him feet first square in the face. Wonderweiss goes crashing down into a building below and is seemingly knocked unconscious. Mashiro screams 'Victory' while Gin watches in amusement at Wonderweiss's apparent defeat.
Mashiro looks up and watches as Aizen kills Tia Harribel, stating her surprise that he killed the last Espada. Her attention diverted by Aizen's attack, she isn't watching when Wonderweiss revives, prompting Kensei to yell at her to get her attention. She plainly tells him that she knows and kicks Wonderweiss in the face, sending him flying blocks away into the various building's. Kensei tells her that fighting this level of opponent will quickly exhaust her. He warns her that she better take off her mask before she runs out of time. Mashiro tells Kensei that he is dumb and that he has no idea how long she can stay Hollowfied. She states that she can keep her mask on for 15 hours and thus she can keep her mask on all night. Wonderweiss goes flying toward Mashiro to attack her but she tells him to just give it a rest as she grabs him by the face and slams him into the ground. Wonderweiss shrugs the attack off and lets out a loud cry. He reaches for Mashiro and grabs her by the scarf, catching her off guard as he throws her many blocks away. Mashiro stops her momentum and becomes upset that Wonderweiss ripped her scarf, then the two lunge at each other, with Mashiro promising to make him pay. She engages a Mashiro Super Cero firing a Cero from the arc of a kick. Before the Cero can reach him Wonderweiss erases it with another loud cry, but this doesn't deter Mashiro, who gets in close and attacks him. Before she can attack her mask shatters and falls apart, with Mashiro in disbelief that her time is up. Wonderweiss takes the opportunity to attack, landing brutal punches to Mashiro's face, but before he can continue his hand is stopped by Kensei. Kensei then takes Mashiro over to the nearest building and lays her on the rooftop. Mashiro asks him if he is going to avenge her, laughing as she asks this. Kensei tells her not to be so happy, because what happened to her was her own fault for ignoring his warning. He says he doesn't want to avenge someone like that, but rather simply wants to give Wonderweiss a taste of his fists, and activates his Bankai.

She seems to be quite in touch with her inner Hollow; given the fact that Mashiro, from the start of her Hollowfication, was able to maintain her Hollow Mask for fifteen hours without practice of any kind, which means that she alone didn't have to train to maintain the mask like the other Vizard

Mask Appearance and Summoning
Her Hollow Mask takes the form of a hornet or bee. It is a heart-shaped mask with two goggle-shaped eyes and four slits in its mouth area and resembles Kamen Rider's mask
Hollow Abilities
Power Augmentation, Enhanced Strength and Enhanced Durability
- Description of Attack -While wearing the mask, Mashiro's Hollow powers supplement her Shinigami powers, giving her a vast increase in both strength and speed. The transformation gives her legs great strength and speed. While being a hollow, her attacks seem to focus almost exclusively on powerful kicks. This increase in power and style is carried over to her Vizard powers, as shown by the fact that she can break a Gillian mask and destroy Fūrā, both in a single kick. With her mask on, Mashiro becomes more durable, shown when she is thrown across several city blocks and comes out from the attack relatively unscathed
- Limitation - Unknown
Mashiro Super Cero
- Description of Attack -While fighting Wonderweiss, she has shown the ability to fire a very fast Cero by kicking in the air towards her target. The Cero is wide and follows the arc made by her leg during the kicking motion

OOC Information

Sample Post
--------------------
The warehouse was eerily empty when the green-haired vizard entered. "Helloooo~?" Mashiro called out loud, hearing her voice echoing, "HELLOOOOOOO~?"
There was no response.
She began to hop from floor to floor, comically looking under every box, rubble or crate she came across. "Hachiiii~? Hiyoriiiii~? Kenseiiiii~? Shinjiiii~? BERRY-TAAAAAN~?"
Still, the only answer she received was her own echo.
She pouted, and then fell to the floor, kicking her legs in the air and crying out loud. "WAA~AAH! WHERE IS EVERYONE?"she said, rolling around in one of her many temper tantrums. Her legs and arms flew around in every possible direction, resembling a turtle on its shell. The nerve of those people to leave her alone in the empty, spooky, deserted warehouse without even a single sesame ball! But as soon as she began her tantrum, it ended, and Mashiro sat up. Crossing her arms, she huffed and arched her shoulders. "Fine then, I'll just sit right here until they come back. And when they do, I won't ever talk to them!" she said, pouting.
A minute passed, and then another, before Mashiro's stomach growled, echoing across the building. "WAAAAAA~AAAAAAAH! WHEN ARE THEY COMING BACK!" she cried, kicking her legs in the air. She didn't want to be alone; she didn't like it one bit! She'd do anything to talk to Hachi, or Hiyori, or Rose, or Love, and even Kensei!
Okay, no, maybe not Kensei.
At that moment, the door slid up, and, wouldn't you know it, the familiar silver-haired man walked inside. "Mashiro! Dammit, Mashiro, are you in here?"
"KENSEI, YOU DUMMY!" Mashiro yelled, "You took everyone away, didn't you? You're so mean!"
"What? We went to the festival, like I told you last night!"
"Festival? I love festivals! LET'S GO NOW!" she said, and grabbed Kensei's hand. With one swift movement, she was out of the door, comedically dragging the poor ex-captain behind her, completely forgetting that she had just been angry, annoyed, pissed and hungry a few minutes ago. "Let's get those cakes with the fruit in them!"
"Mashiro! Cut it out! DAMMIT, MASHIRO!"
