2. Stark

Lilinette (リリネット, Ririnetto?),his young female fracción,typically shows the concern that Stark does not.

3. Halibel
Zommari Leroux (ゾマリ・ルルー,Zomari Rurū)is the seventh Espada.He is a quiet,reverent figure that praises Sōsuke Aizen and despises Soul Reapers for arbitrarily judging hollows.The remnants of his hollow mask take the form of a necklace made out of teeth and a ridge of spikes running down the center of his forehead.Zommari has the self-proclaimed fastest Sonído among the Espada, referred to as Gemelos Sonído (双児響転 (ヘメロス・ソニード),Hemerosu Sonīdo,Spanish and Japanese for "sound twins").He can leave up to five afterimages in his stead when using it. His zanpakutō is Brujería (呪眼僧伽（ブルヘリア）,Buruheria,Spanish for "witchcraft",Japanese for "sangha of bewitching eyes")and in his released state he gains a total of fifty eyes,each of which can be used to gain complete control of whatever or whoever they look upon;this technique is called Amor (愛 (アモル),Amoru,Spanish and Japanese for "Love").His legs are also replaced by a pumpkin-like structure that he can hide within as a defensive measure.When Zommari tries to avenge Aaroniero Arruruerie's death by killing Rukia Kuchiki, he is stopped and killed by her brother,Byakuya Kuchiki.
Aaroniero Arruruerie(アーロニーロ・アルルエリ,Āronīro Arurueri)is the ninth Espada,signified by the "9" tattooed to his two faces.He has an unusual glass capsule filled with red liquid and two floating masks in place of a head,which he usually covers with a tall white mask.The two masks tend to talk in tandem when revealed,giving the effect of two people speaking in turn. The upper mask speaks with a deep voice while the lower mask speaks in a high-pitched,child-like voice,and they appear to have a level of individuality as the lower mask is more afraid of death,screaming blasphemy to Aizen when he dies while the upper mask merely curses one word. He is the last of the first-generation Espada.Aaroniero possesses the ability to broadcast information of whatever he is currently seeing or experiencing to other arrancar,which he does prior to his death at the hands of Rukia Kuchiki.
Aaroniero is unique in that he can absorb other hollows in their entirety,not only giving him their power but their unique abilities and memories as well.Once a hollow is absorbed in this fashion,Aaroniero can manifest any aspect of them at will,including their physical form. Through an unusual series of events,he also absorbs the Soul Reaper abilities of Kaien Shiba. The weakness of this power is sunlight,which nullifies it on contact and reveals Aaroniero's true form.Aaroniero's zanpakutō is Glotonería (喰虚（グロトネリア,Gurotoneria,Spanish for "Gluttony," Japanese for "eating hollow") and it is unclear what its sealed form is,but Aaroniero seems to imply that it is a deformed tentacle-ridden appendage that replaces his left arm.In his released state the lower half of his body turns into a huge,purple,octopus-like mass with dozens of tentacles and cartoonish mouth-like mask pieces.With Glotonería released, Aaroniero can access the full range of his abilities at will, as opposed to the single ability limit imposed on him when it is sealed
10. Yammy
Yammy (ヤミー, Yamī)is the tenth Espada,signified by the "10" tattooed to his left shoulder. What remains of his hollow mask is the jawbone,which rests on his chin.He is the largest,but not the brightest,of the Espada,as he relies upon Ulquiorra Schiffer to explain things and give him orders while in battle. Yammy relies primarily on his brute strength and cero blasts in battle,taking little interest in using his sword until he is overpowered. Aside from his fighting abilities,Yammy can suck the souls from living humans en masse using gonzui (魂吸（ゴンズイ）,gonzui Japanese for "soul suction").It affects a wide area,but any individual with even slight spiritual power is able to resist it to some degree.The name and released state of Yammy's zanpakutō have not been revealed.
