Soi Fon embodies a stern and reserved demeanor, prioritizing duty and order above all else. She is fiercely loyal to her beliefs and the Soul Society, often coming across as cold or unyielding. However, beneath this exterior lies a complex individual with deep-seated emotions, particularly concerning her former mentor, Yoruichi Shihōin. Soi Fon's past experiences have led her to value strength and discipline, sometimes to the point of being harsh with her subordinates.

Physically, Soi Fon is a petite woman with short black hair adorned with two long braids wrapped in white cloth. She wears the standard Shinigami captain's uniform, but underneath, she sports the sleeveless and backless uniform of the Onmitsukidō commander. This specialized attire accommodates her use of Shunkō, an advanced technique combining hand-to-hand combat and Kidō. Her appearance reflects her role as both a captain and a leader of the stealth forces, emphasizing practicality and readiness for combat.
