Friegen, Luders

リューダス・フリーゲン

Luders Friegen is a member of the Vandenreich.
Appearance:
Luders wears long white robes, layered with a waist-length white robe featuring a hood, a black face mask, and epaulettes. A thin black sash runs from his left epaulette to the right side of his waist. He also wears white boots. His eyebrows and hair are dark on the right side and white on the left, reaching down to his shoulders. He has a series of circular marks on his face, both above and below his eyes.
Personality:
Luders possesses a very audacious temperament, remaining undaunted when declaring war on the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13. Towards fellow Vandenreich member Asguiaro Ebern, he is particularly condescending, stating that Asguiaro should bow before him, but he quickly derides Asguiaro's words when countered, mocking his impudence. However, Luders is completely submissive to the Vandenreich Leader and speaks to him with great respect.
History:
Two days before attacking Soul Society, Luders inspected the route intended for breaking into Seireitei and reported that, at that rate, Soul Society would lose its balance of souls with the Human World in the near future.
Plot:
The Thousand-Year Blood War arc
Luders Friegen leads six masked members of the Vandenreich to Seireitei, where they interrupt a Shinigami reporting to Captain-Commander Yamamoto, leaving the messenger lying in a pool of his own blood. When Yamamoto demands to know who they are, Luders greets him and informs him that they are there to declare war on the Gotei 13. When Luders questions the level of security in the Captain-Commander's chamber, Yamamoto tells him that he himself is the best security available. When Lieutenant Sasakibe is propelled across the room with a large arrow through his body, Luders tells Yamamoto to praise the lieutenant for showing him what his fate would be, and states that after fighting and sacrificing everything, Soul Society will be destroyed in five days by the "Vandenreich".
