Ulquiorra Cifer
(Courtesy of Wikipedia)
Ulquiorra Cifer is the Fourth Espada, transformed by Aizen after living a long, lonely life as a Hollow lamenting his own existence. As a member of the Espada whose aspect of death represents nothingness, Ulquiorra is emotionless with an inability to comprehend the meaning of "heart" and supports his firm belief that what his eye cannot see does not exist. Bent on completing tasks set to him by Sōsuke Aizen, Ulquiorra has no qualms about attacking his own allies if they impede his intent and deems anyone he finds not to be of particular interest to be "trash," and therefore expendable. He also refrains from killing a person unless necessary, twice sparing Ichigo and proclaiming he would not harm Orihime because he had not been ordered to.
Ulquiorra is one of the first arrancars to be introduced, appearing alongside Yammy in the real world on Aizen's orders to seek out Ichigo. The pair leaves without killing him when Ulquiorra sees Ichigo's current strength as no threat to Aizen. He does, however, remark that he is concerned over Ichigo's growth potential, stating that if he should pose a threat, then he would kill Ichigo himself.
He later kidnaps Orihime for Aizen, serving as her jailer and forcing her to remain alive for Aizen's use. When Ichigo leads his group to Las Noches, Ulquiorra confronts Ichigo and provokes him into fighting. He easily withstands and defeats Ichigo's hollow form, then leaves Ichigo for dead.
Much later, after escaping imprisonment by the Espada Grimmjow's Caja de Negación, Ulquiorra engages Ichigo in another battle before taking Orihime to Aizen. Entrusted to guard Las Noches while Aizen is away, Ulquiorra engages Ichigo in a final battle that leads him to take their conflict above Las Noches to fight at his full power. However, thinking that he killed him, Ulquiorra unknowingly finds himself facing a semi-hollowified Ichigo with his internal organs heavily damaged. Mortally wounded, Ulquiorra asks Ichigo to finish him off before he dissolves and the battle between them remains unresolved.

Powers and Abilities

Ulquiorra mostly relies on hand-to-hand combat, rarely drawing his sword at all. Ichigo speculates he only draws his sword against opponents he considers "worthy". Ulquiorra seems to prefer an off-the-ground method of combat, often attacking opponents from aerial standpoints. His trademark attack towards prey he likes is to impale them in the chest, gouging a hole in them in the same place as his own.
Though he rarely engages in it, Ulquiorra is highly skilled in swordsmanship. He possesses flawless precision, and uses his speed to inflict lethal attacks without much effort. Ulquiorra prefers to wield his sword with his right hand, leaving the other hand free, though it usually remains in his pocket. He fended off Ichigo using his Hollow mask-enhanced Bankai long enough to reach the top of Las Noches, though his Zanpakutō was nearly broken.
One of Ulquiorra's more noticeable traits is his tremendously skillful speed. Not only can he can skillfully keep up with Ichigo's Bankai speed, but Ulquiorra moves so fast in combat that Ichigo found it hard to even discern his movements. He can also keep up this speed while being burdened with the absence of most of his left leg.
Ulquiorra can fire Cero blasts from his fingers with excessively destructive power. His Cero can be charged and fired relatively fast from either of his hands. The force of the blast can send an opponent hurtling long distances, effectively destroying any obstacle in its path at great range. He can also use Bala, a technique that hardens the user's spiritual pressure and fires it like a bullet from their fist, which is powerful enough to blast a huge hole into two Shinigami.
Passive abilities include hardened skin made up of compressed spiritual power, the ability to sense and gauge spiritual energy, enhanced physical strength, and high-speed regeneration (except for his brain and internal organs).
In addition to his remarkable combat prowess, Ulquiorra is gifted with great insight and understanding of situations at hand. His intelligence is something Aizen, a man arguably best known for his intellect, harbors respect for. With his calm and collected nature, Ulquiorra is highly perceptive and analytical, deducing the basic idea of his opponent's skills to figure out their strengths and weaknesses. He can also replay events he has seen to others by removing and crushing his left eye, which turns into dust and flows around those to whom Ulquiorra is relaying information. He also has the Espada-level Arrancar ability to open a Garganta (portal) between the Human World and Hueco Mundo.

When released, his zanpakutō, Murciélago creates two large black bat-like wings on his back. His hollow helmet is complete and sports two large horns. His release gives him extremely high speed, with Ichigo Kurosaki, a character who uses super speed himself, being unable to keep up with Ulquiorra's attacks. In this form, Ulquiorra can create "lances" of spiritual energy which he uses for both long-ranged and melee attacks; he can also use a stronger Cero variety called Cero Oscuras.

Additionally, Ulquiorra is unique among the Espadas in that he has a second release, Resurrección Segunda Etapa. He becomes demonic and black-furred with clawed hands and feet, his sclera turn green, grows a long thin prehensile tail, which can be used to lift, strike, and strangle a victim, and gains markings similar to blood flowing freely from his hollow hole. Ulquiorra's second release is said to be secret to everybody, even from Aizen. In this new form, his reiatsu lances develop flame-like tips, are dubbed as Lanza del Relámpago, and when thrown, explode upon impact; these detonations are immense enough to dwarf even the massive Las Noches, which is apparently bigger and much taller than a large city; this technique is the most destructive out of all the Espadas. While his second release makes his lances much more powerful, Ulquiorra notes that they also become difficult to control, as seen when he misses Ichigo with his first one.
