At some point, her parents were killed in an ambush, as was explained to her by her elder brother Arashi Katana.

After which, she was taken to the Templar Academy to become a Templar Initiate.
Current Events[]
Introduction[]
Rukia was first seen traveling to Camelot, just after graduating from the Templar Academy, remarking on the long trip, when she was caught off guard by a mysterious stranger floating in the air. After a brief exchange, the figure warns Rukia to beware a person named 'Dragon Face'. They disappear, though Rukia soon heartily dismisses them as crazy.
Arriving later at Camelot, she is greeted by a crowd of newly graduated Templar, soon after, Rukia runs into Zack and Ada, two old friends from the Academy, Zack a new graduate, and Ada their senior. After conversing with the two, Rukia eventually asks Zack on a date, much to his shock, causing him to faint. Soon after Ada presents Zack with a strange bracelet, all while being watched by a stranger.
After Zack shows Rukia the bracelet, she mysteriously faints, causing Ada to run for help, while the stranger attacks Zack in anger, his old rival Adam. In the chaos, Rukia's eyes seem to have changed and become red.
Power of the Soul Arc[]
In her mind, she encounters a being that seems to be a dragonic version of her, along with a shadowy being that eventually proclaims to be The Black Guadian Dragon. It expresses its glee in tearing apart humanity long ago, and even bringing her own ancestor Katrina Katana to her demise, and proudly proclaims it will also kill Rukia as well, which prompts Rukia to attempt to summon her Hakobune, to no avail. Quickly realizing she is in danger, she narrowly dodges, but an idea occurs to her that if what the dragon self of her had said was true about them being in her own soul, she could in theory still use the powers of her Hakobune.
The dragon mutters begrudgingly an admittance of her skill, but soon resorts to Helghast, a powerful blast intended to outright defeat her. Summoning the power of her Hakobune, Ten no Ame, she attempts to deflect the burst with the spell Ripple Shield, but ultimately fails, the negative energy causing her to reflect on her past and fall into despair, begging for her existence to be ended, while in the Heavens, the Deities contemplate aid.
Meanwhile in the waking world, Zack defeats Adam but soon falls unconscious, appearing in Rukia's mindscape and sees a child version of Rukia. He goes to investigate, but is soon halted by the mysterious stranger who appeared to Rukia, who warns Zack that he will kill him if he gets close. The stranger reveals that it is due to the Sōru koa on Zack's arm, what he believed to be a bracelet that Rukia has fallen unconscious, and that the end result of the device being used caused a severe imbalance in Rukia's multiple souls: the Dragon, Light, and Dark souls. When asked what they should do, the stranger implies that Zack should return Rukia's souls to balance.
After delving deeper into her mind, Zack learns about her tragic childhood, and becomes angered. However, as Rukia begins to avoid Zack's prodding, her desire to hide brought out the dark manifestation of the Dragon out of hiding, revealing her transforming spiritual body.
After the stranger and Zack duel the dragon, Zack reaches Rukia and attempts to correct his mistake, but instead overcorrects and causes her to become a Dragon God. With this incredible surge of power, Rukia dispatches the Dragon but quickly begins to be overwhelmed by her power, her mind becoming swallowed by lust for power. With her mind succumbed, she attacks Zack and the stranger, incapable of reason and unwilling to let go of her power, feeling a strong need to possess more and more power.
As Rukia is about to strike down Zack, the God of Fire Arizro uses Zack to manifest and defends him from her power. Angered by his appearance, the out of control godling attempts to overpower him, but is quickly and effortlessly subdued by the ancient war god, who asks the stranger, revealed as a Black Templar to take care of the remaining situation, before disappearing.
Before returning to the real world, Zack uses the Sōru koa to undo the Dragon God Transformation on Rukia, returning her to normal, though he vows to help her get revenge on Arashi for mistreating her for so long. He soon falls unconcious, and the two are taken to the hospital by Ada Mongi and her friends.
Templar Annointment Arc[]
After waking up, Rukia sends for Zack's company and soon reunites with her brother Arashi, who soon decides to leave after an unheard argument between the two, causing Rukia to plead with him to stay, and drawing Zack's ire, who had been walking in on the scene. After Arashi rebukes Zack for his outburst, he leaves the two, telling them to attend the Templar's Annointment and not be tardy. Rukia tells Zack he didn't need to defend her, but he cannot understand why she would think that way.
Later, after bathing herself, it appears that she has come to his home, wearing intricate jewelry and clothes, surprising Zack's father.
Trivia[]
Rukia is one of the most frustrating characters to draw in the series, along with Dragon Face and the Black Guadian Dragon.
