Byakuya Togami

Byakuya is 185cm (6’1”) and weighs around 68kg, with a tall, slender build and strikingly long legs. He has pale skin, lapis blue eyes with noticeably long eyelashes, and has chin-length blonde canary yellow hair. He wears a black suit jacket over a white shirt and lapis blue crossover tie. He also wears black dress pants accessorized with a black belt, and black dress shoes with a slight heel. He has a silver pocket watch in his suit breast pocket and had the pin of his former high-school on his lapel. he wears white framed glasses.

Byakuya is the heir to the financial giant that is the Togami family.

As a tradition, the head of the family did not have a single, dedicated wife, but instead had many, many children with “a number of the highest quality women” all across the world. At some point, all of the potential successors were made to compete against one another, with the victor being named heir of the Togami Corporation.

In Byakuya's generation there were fifteen candidates of various genders. The candidates all fought for the position and in the end, Byakuya, the youngest, came out on top. It was the first time in the family's history that the youngest had ever “taken the crown”. The losing siblings were exiled from the family, but Byakuya harshly described them as being “killed” because, according to him, “[to be in] exile is pretty much the same as death”.

According to the rumors, Byakuya had already held several management positions at a company and had managed to acquire a considerable amount of fortune on his own. Furthermore, all of the schools he enrolled into were exclusive ones, his former high school being Green Hills High School.

The closest person to him was his butler, named Aloysius Pennyworth, who referred to him as "Young Master".

Byakuya is an arrogant man who saw himself superior to others, due to being the heir of an extremely successful family business. He is often cold, blunt and taciturn, but has a deviously manipulative tendency. Togami had often expressed irritation from Fukawa/Jill's obsessive behaviour toward him, though he often used it to his benefit by ordering them (technically, her) around. His dismissive attitude alienated and angered others to the point where Aoi Asahina slapped him and Mondo Owada threatened to kill him more than once.

Throughout the story he saw events of the series as mere games, which frequently antagonized the others, saying he would be the one to emerge unscathed. Despite his prudish demeanor, he was actually one of the group's most sensible students and had proven to be a competent investigator. He is, however, not afraid or unwilling to manipulate the scene of a murder to entertain himself more. He greatly revered his family, often speaking of the vast power of the Togami Group.

Since Byakuya sees the events as a game where there is only one victor, he is annoyed by and does not understand the students' attempts to prevent killing one another, believing it to be a waste of time and just delaying the inevitable, especially since they're in a death game. Due to this, he frequently breaks the group's own rules, such as going out during nighttime and coming to the morning meeting late, if at all.
