Algora Lallau

Algora cuts an imposing figure, a big man whose head is long and narrow and whose features, his lips especially, stand out prominently. His hair runs pale, and a broad scar crosses his brow at a slant, running from the upper left down toward the lower right. For dress he keeps to the uniform of Yhwach's forces, a white shirt fastened all the way to his collar beneath a simple white cap.

Little is recorded about his temperament, though he openly doubted that Yhwach would raise the young Jugram Haschwalth to the role of chief adviser. He proves fiercely loyal all the same, throwing himself between Nikita Deslock and Ichibe Hyosube's retaliating blow without a moment's hesitation. Those who fought beside him spoke of him as dependable and decent, a good man in their eyes.

More than a millennium ago, under the reign of the Lichtreich, Algora rode alongside Hubert in search of fresh recruits for the newly formed Sternritter, carrying the unit's banner and driving it hard into the ground as Hubert declared their purpose to a gathered town. Like Hubert, he was taken aback to learn that Yhwach regarded Haschwalth as special and meant to make him his counselor. He later stood among his comrades when Yhwach and Ichibe Hyosube met to broker a truce, and there he shielded his allies from Ichibe's counterstrike.

As a Quincy he pulls spirit particles from the surrounding air and merges them with his own power to form his twin axes, gathering that energy more readily in dense environments such as Soul Society or Hueco Mundo, while his sturdiness lets him absorb blows meant for his fellows. When the Lichtreich marched on Soul Society, Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto burned Algora to death alongside Huburt and Johann Seydlitz using Zanka no Tachi. Long afterward, during the Thousand-Year Blood War, Yamamoto called the bones of his slain foes back to motion against Royd Lloyd, who had assumed Yhwach's guise, and the sight of the reanimated Algora plainly rattled the impostor.
