Lindocruz, Tesla

Tesla is a slim male Arrancar with blond hair. He bears an odd blue marking on his right cheek and wears an eyepatch over that eye. His jacket differs from the standard Arrancar style, resembling a lab coat instead. The remnants of his hollow mask appear as a thin upper jaw forming a circlet around his forehead. Although he held the rank of Numero, his power was comparable to a captain's; he blocked Chad's Diablo attack with his sword (though Chad was in a weak condition) and seriously injured Ichigo while the latter was in a weakened Bankai state.
Tesla seems to idolize Nnoitra to some degree, with his eyepatch (though not identical) echoing that of his master. This loyalty is evident when he stands by his act of shielding Nnoitra against Chad's final assault, despite criticism from Nnoitra himself. Nnoitra first instructs Tesla to restrain Orihime while the Espada fights Ichigo, and later orders him to finish off Ichigo. He mercilessly beats the weakened Ichigo in his released state until Kenpachi Zaraki stops him and badly wounds him. Later, Tesla is seen on the ground in his unreleased state, shedding a tear for the fallen Nnoitra.
Tesla's zanpakutō is Verruga (牙鎧士（ベルーガ）, Berūga?, Spanish for "wart," Japanese for "tusked armored warrior"). He releases it with the phrase "crush" (打ち伏せろ, uchifusero?). When sealed, it takes the form of a rapier with a chakram embedded in the blade just above the hilt. Tesla can make the ring solid if he wishes, as seen when he blocks an attack from Chad using the solid ring, then converts it back to a hollow one after Chad has fallen. The guard seems to be made of a kind of scaled ribbing. When released, Tesla becomes a large, warthog-like creature. His mask grows to cover his entire face and produces a pair of tusks. His hair also grows into a mane. In his released form, Tesla's mask has a large scar covering his right eye, corresponding to the eyepatch he wears in his unreleased form. In this state, Tesla uses brute force to defeat his opponents.
