Bio/History: Ryoma had the supernatural ability to see ghosts, and as he grew older, he also gained the ability to help them out so they could peacefully pass on. Ryoma had seen his first ghost when he was one, it was the ghost of a dog who was left behind in the house his family lived in and passed away, long before the Hiyame family had moved in, the ghost dog had been lonely, scared, and felt abandoned. But when he met little Ryoma, whom acknowledged him, despite the fact that he was a spirit, he showed what little compassion a one year old could, and the dog felt as if it had been loved once again, allowing it to pass on. His next ghost appeared when he was only 10, it was the ghost of a young boy, who had run away one day and got hit by car and died. The boy wanted to let his mother know somehow that he was sorry, and Ryoma helped him out, by giving the boy's mother something that the boy held dear to him, it was a photo of the boy's family, the mother tearfully thanked Ryoma for the photo, with the mother knowing, the boy was happy and finally able to move on, however Ryoma never saw any other ghosts afterwards for some reason.
Ryoma was raised in a modern middle class family, he was gifted with incredible intellegence, able to speak small words early then the average baby could. Further proof of his gifted mind came to light when he received the highest marks in his schools even up to highschool where he graduated two years early. He spent several of his early years taking up martial arts for self defense, but when in a fight, always took up a free style method. After highschool he sought out a job and got work in an exotic marine aquarium shop, selling saltwater fish to people as pets. He spent most of his days there, but often found himself hoping for something more then the little fish store. One day, a family walked into the store, and a girl his age was with them, Ryoma had never met a beauty like her in his life. He had fallen in love with this girl, named Rei and one day, he finally grew the courage to ask her out, she accepted. In his early 20s he had been dating Rei for awhile, and had planned to propose to her. However, one day he was making a routine trip to the bank to cash a check when a robbery occured, Ryoma was shot by accident through the heart, he died on the way to the hospital, he woke up to find himself in the districts, not sure of his location.
During his days in the world of spirits, he spent most of his days as a lonely soul, wandering the poor area of the Rukongai, one day he noticed a kind shinigami, who stopped to have a conversation with Ryoma, he asked how Ryoma got to the Rukongai, Ryoma told him his story, the soul reaper was sad to hear the story. But out of the blue Ryoma surprised him by asking what Soul Reapers did, when the soul reaper explained how he helped lost spirits come here, hopefully to give them a second chance at happiness, and to keep them from becoming hollows. Ryoma had shown great interest in helping other spirits, so they could have a better life instead of being depressed. However, Ryoma still couldn't shake the thought of Rei from his mind, he had vowed to himself to one day see her, but first he had to become a soul reaper. So he decided to enlist in the soul reaper academy, with his mind dead set on being a soul reaper, no matter what it takes.
