Aizen's army is also composed of powerful Hollows know as Arrancar, Hollows who have had their masks removed. The most powerful of the Arrancar are called the Espada, and are covered in a subsequent page of this section of the bios. All Arrancar of lesser rank are called Numeros and are given a number from 10 to 99, depending on their birth order. Also the Fraccion, the Espada's personal Arrancar subordinates, are given numbers. Some Espada choose only to have one or two Fraccion, while others literally have a small army at their disposal. Here are a few of the Numeros, Arrancar, and Fraccion.
| Grand Fisher - After his defeat at the hands of Ichigo, Grand Fisher returned to Hueco Mundo to get an upgrade. His mask was removed, and he bacame an Arrancar. This gave him a Zanpakuto, a very large Zanpakuto, almost like a Claymore. He returned to the Human World to exact his revenge on Ichigo for his loss in their first en counter. His power was short-lived however, as he was defeated by Isshin Kurosaki, in one blow. |  |
| Nel Tu - an odd Arrancar, due to the fact that she doesn't attack Ichigo and the others, but rather befriends them. She travels with her companions, Peche Gatishe and Dondochaka Bilstin, as well as their "pet" Bawabawa. She seems to know a lot, despite her apparent age, as she refers to herself as a "masochist" when she, Peche, and Dondochaka first meet Ichigo and the others. At first, she tries to tell Ichigo that the Shinigami are evil, and the Hollows are the good guys. For her full Bio (as a former Espada), mash this link. |  |
| Peche Guatiche - A relatively harmless humanoid Hollow who accompanies Nel and Dondochaka. It is later revealed that he is actually the fraccion of Nel when she was an Espada. His masks resembles that of an insect, with two antennae like protrusions on top. He employs a technique called "Infinite Slick" which is pretty much a secretion fired from his mouth that reduces the friction on anything it hits. This technique is not infinite, despite its name, and can only be used a limited time. Though only wielded once, he can pull out his Zanpakuto, Ultima, from his loincloth (kinda creepy). He and Dondochakka can perform a synchronized Cero together called "Cero Sincronico".
Dondochakka Bilstin - Like Peche, Dondochakka travels with Nel, and it is later revealed that he is actually the fraccion of Nel when she was an Espada. His mask resembles that of a large tiki statue, and wears a polka dotted body suit. He contains withing his stomach several insect spirits, including Bawabawa, that can be released to aid in battle. He can also yank a giant spiked club (his Zanpakuto?) out of his mouth. He and Peche can perform a synchronized Cero together called "Cero Sincronico". |  |
| Shawlong Koufang - The 11th Arrancar and also Grimmjow's Fraccion, Shawlong appears to be somewhat of a leader of the other Fraccion under Grimmjow. His Zanpakuto is called Tijereta (translated "five-pincered insect"), and grants him armor on his arms and chest as well as long claws and a tail. He is defeated by Toshiro Hitsugaya. While he and Grimmjow's other Fraccion were still adjuchas, he was the one who offered to proclaim Grimmjow as their king and to follow him. He realized that Grimmjow was the only one that would continue increasing in power, and asked Grimmjow to eat him and the others, though it seems they were spared long enough to become Arrancar. |  |
| Edrad Liones - The 13th Arrancar and also Grimmjow's Fraccion. Edrad's Zanpakuto is called Volcanica (translated "volcanic beast") and when released gives him armor covering his arms, making them wider and larger. He can shoot fire from his fists in this state, but is defeated by Ikkaku Madarame when he releases his Bankai. |  |
| Yylfordt Granz - The 15th Arrancar, Grimmjow's Fraccion, and Szayel Apporo Granz's older brother. Yylfordt is suprisingly strong for his rank, and is able to fight on par with Renji's Bankai, at 20%, without releasing his Zanpakuto. The name of his Zanpakuto is Del Toro (translated "pale horned prince"), which grants his entire upper body a sturdy armor and horns, which he uses to impale his prey. He is defeated by Renji's Bankai after his limiter is released. It is revealed by Szayel that he implanted a surveying device in Yyofodt so that he could gather data on any person Yylfordt fought, he used his battle with Renji to design a room where his Bankai can't work. |  |
| Apache - One of Halbiel's Fraccion, she is a tomboy-ish arrancar with mismatching eye colors, one blue and one orange; the latter eye has a red ring around it. Apache's mask fragment is on the top of her head with a horn in the middle much like that of a unicorn. Apache has not been shown to carry a Zanpakuto. |  |
| Mila Rose - One of Halbiel's Fraccion, she is a dark-skinned arrancar who dresses like an Amazon warrior. Her mask fragments form a three-sectioned crown around her head and a thick necklace. Her hollow hole is positioned midway between her navel and breasts. She has been shown to be holding some kind of wrapped stick, but it is unclear if it is her Zanpakuto. |  |
| Sun-Sun - One of Halbiel's Fraccion, she dresses somewhat like Luppi, with sleeves that extend well past her hands. She also has two belts criss-crossing each other on her waist. Sun-sun has long, flowing green hair and three dots below her right eye. Her mask remnants create three hair clip-like extensions on the right side of her hair. Her hollow hole isn't visible. She seems to be the most mature of Halibel's Fracción, advising Apache and Mira Rose to stop arguing, as it makes them look weak, then chiding their angry responses. |  |
| Lilinette - Stark's only Fraccion; a young-looking female arrancar. Her outfit is quite revealing, consisting of little more than a pair of briefs and a vest strapped over her torso, with her hollow hole positioned prominently in the center of the outfit. Her mask fragment takes the form of a helmet, similar to Ulquiorra Schiffer's but intact. A sort of eyepiece also extends over her left eye, decorated with a flame-like pattern. She seems quite mischievous, in that she enjoys waking Stark up in unusual ways: first by shoving her fist in his throat, then by squeezing his testicles. Despite her initially childish behavior, she does seem to show some concern for the ominous occurrences in Hueco Mundo. |  |
| Po - Once of Baragan's Fraccion, he seems mostly calm and reserved, often seen with his hands together in front of him, as in a stance of deep contemplation. The remainder of his Hollow mask forms at his chin; two short, cylindrical protrusions jutting out a diagonal directions. He seems to take most comments seriously, even those that would be easily just overlooked, and questions the content of such comments. He is by far the physically tallest of Baragan's Fraccion, towering over the other 3 with long arms reacing down to his knees. |
|
| Findor - Once of Baragan's Fraccion, he appears clam and calculative, requesting to know Shuhei Hisagi's rank so as to assertain what level he should fight at, perhaps to not waste energy by going all out. The remains of his Hollow mask starts in the middle of his head, allowing his long hair to flow down his back, coming over his eyes with two slanted eye slits; it also runs down over his ears until it covers his chin with a pattern of bare teeth, a common decoration on most Hollow masks. Findor apparently posseses a communication device or ability, able to relay messages back to Hueco Mundo, as demonstrated when Baragan had him order the first wave of Hollows to attack the Pillars, though they were easily dispatched. It was then that Baragan sent him, as well as his other Fraccion, to deal with the Shinigami guarding the pillars, he meeting Shuhei Hisagi. During battle, he can raise his fighting strength and ability by breaking off portions of his mask. When his mask is broken enough to reveal on of his eyes, he has reached the level of a Lieutenant. |

| Charlotte CoolHorn - One of Baragan's Fraccion, he is the most "feminine" of the others, preferring a flashy entrance. He despises those who judge others based on appearance, and backhands Yumichika when he calls him "ugly", though he asserts that he cannot claim him to be such as he is perfect stranger. The remains of his Hollow mask form a tiara with horns that protrude upward amidst his long, curly hair. His Zanpakuto's, "Reina De Rosas" crossguard appears to be in the form of a flower, much like Yachiru's, and is summoned by calling out "Sparkle", and he seemed eager to use it when faced with Yumichika's blatant vain nature. |
|
| Abirama Redder - One of Baragan's Fraccion, he seems to be the most eccentric and battle-loving among the 4 of Baragan's subordinates. He seems to enjoy a little more ritual to combat, as he demands Kira Izuru to join him in screaming how they will kill each other to get them both in the mood for fighting. The remains of his Hollow Mask forms what appears to be the beak of a bird, perhaps a falcon, and ear guards come down the side of his face. His Zanpakuto's name is Aguila (translated, "Eagle"), it grants Abirama a pair of wings, talons for his hands and feet, as well as a bird's beak. The feathers on his wings aren't your average pillow-grade feathers, they're made of steal, and crush anything they hit with their sheer weight alone. |
