Accomplishments in various Rp's:
Spoiler
I've done many spectacular events in Rps, that many would consider odd, weird, and effective. A small list:
* Bleach villain who took on several captain level people at once, whose sole ability was to make alchohal.
* Naruto RP- Taking out an Akatsuki member...while in crutches
*Random Rp- Took out a dragon by throwing a cup of tea in it's face, and then stabbing it to death
*Naruto Rp- Riding a spear of earth, like a pony....into a crowd of enemies
*Naruto Rp- Killing an entire room with an exploding shopping list
* Bleach Rp- Had to end an arc, so I did so...with lasers falling from the sky from the Captain Commander. There were no survivors
*Naruto Rp- I helped a 'teammate'. I gave him a seal that was full of seals to enhance his chakra. I forgot to mention it was also an explosive tag.
*Bleach Rp- There was a man named Gaiven. Yoshua still has nightmares about him, you should ask him.
*Bleach Rp- Byakurai looks like a really weak kido, until you hide a level 96 Itto Kaso inside one.
*Bleach Rp- Kicked a Royal Guardsman's ass. Did I mention it was with a whole, not even a soul reaper?
*Bleach Rp- Some people fly through the air. Some run at high speeds. Vez Largo? He flies through the air in a floating lawnchair, strapped to a hollow bird with a kido. He named the bird Pedro.
*Naruto Rp- Best headshot of all time. Slapped a villain in the face with a summoning seal. I summoned an exploding Kunai.
*Fantasy RP- How I handle fights. 1 swordsman vs. 4 gunman seemed unfair, so I used my fist, and won. How? 1) Head meets table violently 2) Human shield 3) #2 was also human ammo to be hurled across the room 4) Trembled at the first 3.
*Naruto RP- I needed a spy who wouldn't be automatically detected. He made grotesque wood carvings in his front lawn, and yelled at kids to get off his lawn, then fell asleep. Nobody suspected a thing.
*Random Fighting Thread- Nothing says exit like an Al-Quieda inspired exit. Suicidal pipe bomb.
*Random RP- Nothing says traitor like leaving your teammate to fend off two assailants, then kill them all with a surprise explosion.... including the teammate.
*One Piece RP- Someone challenge me to an insane-off in a Marine Base. The only time the marine base had ever had self evacuation from a pirate without a bounty.
*One Piece Rp- Abducted a brothel with a wheelbarrow and blow dart with tranquilizers. Still officially have them in the crew. First island with the crew too.
*Naruto RP- Drunk character rode the 8 tailed beast like a rodeo.
Name: Charis
Age: 30 (Almost new to Hueco Mundo)
Gender: Unknown, Gillian bodies don't have much in the way of coherent anatomy going for them.
Race: Hollow
Rank: Gillian
Highly ravenous and instinctual, natch - This Gillian has only recently had one of the numerous personalities within its body assume control, and so it retains a large degree of its initial mindlessness. It can, however, understand most attempts at communication and follow simple instructions, has a capacity to learn, can speak simple, single words, and has a large wellspring of curiosity to compliment its baser drives. However, under no circumstances should one attempt to reason with it unless they are immensely superior in strength - its curiosity often manifests itself in the form of the Gillian playing with its food.
Identical to other Gillian in stature and appearance - its mask has shifted appearance however, to identify its potential to eventually transform into an Adjuchas. The mask's mouth is drawn into that of a vicious smirk, and it has large diamond shaped eyes that take up the majority of the mask's surface, with a smaller, normal nose compared to the long pointy sticks that most Gillian have.
This particular Gillian has been active in Hueco Mundo for nine years, having only recently gained an emergent personality and a unique mask. Finding Gillian in such a state is relatively rare (due to retaining their gillian bodies despite their unique masks, they are easily picked out and slain by Adjuchas before they can transform). As a largely instinctual creature, when it was discovered by the Servitor it should have either run from or fought him, but due to the strength of its emergent personality went still instead. Finding this vaguely curious, the Vasto Lorde managed to discover that the Gillian was a few rungs smarter than lesser Gillian and managed to 'train' it to obey him.
Since then, the Servitor has made frequent use of the Gillian to serve as a distraction while traversing Hueco Mundo (with the Vasto Lorde preferring not to deal with lesser Hollows at all unless they were Adjuchas), with the less powerful menos serving him almost in the same way as a squire would a knight.
Abnormal Speed - Most Hollows, even Vasto Lorde, lack in the speed department since they are unable to utilize Sonido or any other equivalent of flash-stepping. This Hollow's heightened speed is therefore highly unusual.
Estancada Cero - A cero with much less explosive power to it than normal, instead of wrecking immense physical damage it causes spiritual energy to dissipate. Stable spiritual energy such as reshi and reiryoku remain unaffected since it is usually grounded in a stable form, but reiatsu, kido and other manifested forms of spiritual energy lose cohesion and disperse. When used on beings who radiate large amounts of spiritual pressure, the reiatsu emanating from their form is almost literally blown away from them, almost as if by a fierce wind. This cero can also cut straight through most barriers and incoming spirit attacks (including other cero) by dispersing them on contact.
Escalation - The Gillian's unique Hollow Ability goes hand-in-hand with its unique cero. The ability can force Reiryoku fields to immediately change to another available configuration. By using this ability, Charis can force Arrancar to unleash their Resureccion (or their Segunda Etapa if they have already used their Resureccion) Shinigami to use their Shikai (or Bankai if Shikai is already in use), etcetera - unfortunately for them, the normal boost in Reiryoku and Reitsu such abilities usually entail will be absent. The powers and techniques afforded by such remain, but there will be no gift-wrapped power boost to go along with them. This can be avoided simply by using these abilities before Charis chooses to use her own. When used on regular Hollows, this ability temporarily negates their abilities while giving them a Reiatsu boost.
Denial - This Gillian can deny an opponent many of their advantages in a fight through combined use of its unique cero and special ability, depriving any foe who encounters it the chance to power up if they are pressed. This can turn an ordinarily challenging fight with the Hollow into a death-sentence.
Abilities listed in red are those Charis is incapable of utilizing.
**Hardened Mask- Strength: 20, Mask: 30, Reiatsu: 20 - As it was before.
**Basic Acidic Touch- Mask: 15 - Hollow Reishi is highly volatile in nature, coming into contact with it can cause acid-like burns that are harder to heal than most wounds.
**Environmental Acidic Touch- Mask: 30, Reiatsu: 10 - As Hollows grow more powerful, they begin to emit and trail reishi around and behind them as a cloud or wake - most beings can be burnt in a similar manner than if a Hollow had touched them just by being too close.
**Soul Acidic Touch- Mask: 40, Reiatsu: 20 - Particularly malignant Hollows are so inimical to all other beings that their acidity will burn the Souls of the living, dead or damned, which can result in unresponsiveness and weakening of Reiryoku.
**Body Soul Separation- Mask: 10 Hollow Technique: 30 - Hollows can eject spirits from their physical bodies with a touch - mostly used for hunting living Pluses. Is largely ineffective against most other beings other than those possessing a Gigai.
**Soul Chain Encroachment- Mask: 10, Hollow Technique: 20, Reiatsu: 10 - Beings who still have Chains of Fate can become 'infected' by the unfettered nature of Hollows, and their chain will begin to undergo Encroachment at an accelerated rate, turning them to Hollows sooner rather than later. Soul Chain Encroachment is invariably untreatable unless the victim's soul is purified through the use of Konso or if the soul in question can let go of its Earthly bonds.
**Soul Chain Shatter- Mask: 20, Hollow Technique: 40, Reiatsu: 20 - More powerful Hollows do not have to put up with that bullshit. Soul Chain encroaches fully in mere instants, and bam. New Hollow.
**Soul Contamination- Mask: 30, Hollow Technique: 40, Reiatsu: 40 - Only Pluses have Chains of Fate, making other beings such as Shinigami largely immune to Hollow exposure...Up to a certain extent. Soul Contamination infects a spirit's heart, which causes it to develop a Chain of Fate that will then undergo encroachment. Notably, this new Chain of Fate cannot be instantly shattered, though it also cannot be removed through purification via Konso - the only surefire treatment is for the affected Spirit to undergo an inner journey in an effort to dispel the bond, which may either cause the Chain of Fate to vanish or for encroachment to accelerate.
**Soul Predation- Mask: 20, Hollow Technique: 20, Reiatsu: 10 - Using this, Hollows are capable of hunting Souls that have been exposed to that Hollow's reiatsu within a decent period of time.
**Swiftness(1 Short)- Speed: 10 - It is well known that Hollows are incapable of any form of instantaneous movement akin to Shunpo. That does not, by any stretch, mean that they are slow. They can cover the same amount of distance a Shinigami does via Shunpo in the same amount of time through more mundane locomotion. Leaping, jumping, pouncing, charging and so on.
**Swiftness(1 long)- Speed: 20
**Unimpeded Motion(Short)- Speed: 30, Reiatsu: 20 - Moving as fast as they do without using Reiatsu to bolster their speed, Hollows can strain and tire quickly through too much accelerated movement. Such is no longer the case.
**Ineffable Movement- Speed: 40, Reiatsu: 25 - A few Hollows can move both rapidly and silently, moving faster than the eye can follow with such lightness that a tower of cards wouldn't even tremble.
**Lesser Hollow Summoning- Mask: 20
**Marauding Hollow Summoning- Mask: 40, Reiatsu: 20
**Ascendant Hollow Summoning- Mask: 60, Reiatsu: 40, Hollow Technique: 40
**Menos Grande Cero- Hollow Technique: 10, Reiatsu: 10, Stats: 120
**Adjuchas Cero- Hollow Technique: 20, Reiatsu: 15, Stats: 250
**Custom Cero- Hollow Technique: 30, Reiatsu 25, Stats: 120 - You only get one Cero of your own design. Make it good.
**Vasto Lorde Cero- Hollow Technique: 40, Reiatsu: 40, Mask: 40
**Garganta- Hollow Technique: 20
**Negaccion- Hollow Technique: 40, Stats: 120 - Forms an impenetrable force-field and escape garganta for you to quickly and safely escape from bad situations. Not to say there won't be anything waiting for you on the other side of said garganta.
**Cannibalism- Mask: 20, Strength: 30 - Devouring spirits now entails a small dose of instantaneous healing to recover from moderate wounds.
**Passive Regeneration- Mask: 30, Reiatsu: 20 - Injuries heal quickly, with massive gouges and gashes healing fully in minutes. Missing limbs and organs are irreplacable.
**High Speed Regeneration- Mask: 40, Reiatsu: 40 - Injuries heal within a scant moment, and even limbs will grow back in mere instants. Organs remains irreplacable.
**Astounding Regeneration- Mask: 40, Hollow Technique: 65, Reiatsu: 30 - While organs still will not regeneration, wounds will now spew a hard, carapace-like substance forth to cover the damaged area, temporarily protecting it from damage. This carapace falls off after a few minutes.
**Carapace Armor- Strength: 40 Mask: 40, Reiatsu: 40 - Particularly resilient Hollows will have bodies adorned with a thick, white chitin-like substance that serves as light armor. Nothing fancy like Hierro.
**Blade Catching- Strength: 50 - Catch the blade heading for your face. Works every time.
**Resilience- Strength: 50, Reiatsu: 40 - Deflect or halt spirit-attacks, from Cero to Kido.
Strengths: The Exigent Gillian has a deadly combination of high speed, well above-average toughness supplemented by regeneration, and powerful Hollow abilities. It has an effective three-hit punch that allows it to take down most combatants before they realize the fight has even started - using their special ability to force a foe to shift to their top-shelf battle mode, followed by an Estancada Cero to blow away any spiritual pressure, abilities or attacked formed, and then finished with an actual cero to blow away the likely depowered enemy. Coupled with the Hollow's acidity, the danger the Hollow presents at range is only heightened up-close, making it a dangerous opponent with no clear weaknesses.
Weaknesses: The Exigent Gillian has sacrified much of its raw, physical strength for its speed and power - its physical attacks are left wanting. Its ceros and acidity are powerful, but the former requires a charge-period and the latter can be either avoided or mitigated. While its Escalation ability can be supremely debilitating, it only works as intended when used before an enemy triggers their altered state themselves. Simply using one's shikai/bankai equivilant before the Gillian can Escalate renders the ability useless - it will briefly shift the target into another available form, but there is nothing preventing them from changing back, and the reiatsu boost will still be present from the previous use. The Gillian has very few means of dealing with melee fighters and specialists who are able to keep up with its immense speed.
Name: Ipse Qui Patitur
Age: Unknown - After a few dozen thousand years, everything seems to blur. Easily over thirty thousand years at the very least.
Gender: Male
Race: Hollow
Rank: Vasto Lorde Solitario
Has a very morose sense of self. Having lived for so long, he has become very tired and wary of existence in general - he always appears supremely disappointed or let down by the efforts of others. His disposition comes to him effortlessly, and he rarely feels any variation in emotion. This Vasto Lorde has not felt much of anything for thousands of years other than a placid sort of despair. He sees conflict of any sort as pointless in nature. He is mainly driven by his endless hunger, which he does not fully understand.
From the waist-down, resembles a gigantic centipede with one hundred and thirty eight legs - each leg has a human hand at it's end. Appearance is (somewhat) human from the waist-up, with six arms. Their head from the the shoulders-up is several segments of chitin that forms an oblong structure, with twelve mandibles surrounding a circular hole leading to darkness at the very top. On the 'back' of the head are several sets of eyes protected by thick, transparent 'caps' of chitin. The creature's head is so arranged that it is not facing 'forward' properly unless it's human body is belly-down, lateral to the rest of its centipede body. Overall, the Vasto Lorde is roughly twelve feet long, typically trailing six feet of their body for movement while rearing the rest of their body, making them appear much shorter than they actually are (at around five feet in height when reared).
Vasto Lorde are the third classification of Menos and the highest level of evolution. They are extremely small Hollows, roughly the same size as humans and are extremely rare in number. It is said that you could count their entire number within Hueco Mundo with only the fingers of your hand. -Bleach Wiki
...This is true, but Vasto Lorde come and go, like embers emerging from the corpse of a fire to be errantly snuffed out in due course. Before the rise of Tenebrae and even Soul Society itself, Vasto Lorde had a particularly nasty habit of killing one another for various reasons. Fear, envy, simple hate...
There are never very many Vasto Lorde at any one time, but this particular Vasto Lorde has been around for so long that it has seen generations of Vasto Lorde rise and fall. It has ventured across Hueco Mundo from one horizon to the other. Even when nations were young, it was ancient.
It has forgotten what it used to be. It has forgotten the life it lived, what its name was, what the sun looked like. It even forgot that there could be anything other than Hueco Mundo: Endless sands and suffering and death.
But things, no matter how trite and repetitive they might seem, do change. The rise and fall of Seretei as a whole, along with Tenebrae's ascent to power, took place in the span of a lazy yawn for this Vasto Lorde, as did the change of leadership amongst the Espada. But it still stirred that which should have been left buried. Now, more than ever before, this Hollow has become possessed by a single, insatiable desire.
To Consume. It must Consume...
But no Vasto Lorde is a primitive monster. Even the youngest of them is highly intelligent and rational, and this one has existed for aeons. It may not understand its hunger, but there is nothing in the world that would stop it from venturing forth from the darkness for the first time to discover the world beyond Hueco Mundo.
Cero Supurante - Their Cero is every bit as devestating as those used by other hollows, but has additional properties. Rather than being projected as a ray or wave, it is instead spewed like a liquid, where the cero then spreads about and settles within the environment as though it were water. Whenever it comes into contact with Reitsu, it annihilates violently. This liquid is harmless to matter devoid of Reishi. This is especially dangerous in the human world, where ordinary humans will not be able to see the Cero until they have made contact with it.
Immense Strength - What it lacks in flashy abilities, it makes up with raw, unfettered strength. Its bare hands can ream through even the toughest hierro with ease. Attempting to block or lock with its fists will often result in the weapon in question shattering into hundreds of pieces, and in contests of strength or hand-to-hand battles it is virtually unmatched.
Garganta and Negaccion - Naturally.
High Speed Regeneration - Now with 144% more annoyance.
Soul-Body Separation - Like all Hollows, they can forcibly separate the souls of the living from their bodies - this is not an often-used ability, as most Hollows prefer to prey on Pluses rather than living souls.

Attempting to block or lock with its fists will often result in the weapon in question shattering into hundreds of pieces, and in contests of strength or hand-to-hand battles it is virtually unmatched.
Unique Ability: Fauces Devoradoras - In times of need, his centipede limbs prove to be useful for more than just moving around. Upon using this ability, all of his limbs can be extended to unknown distances and become fully prehensile. In addition, the human hands at the end of each limb develop maws on their palms, and they become capable of devouring souls and reitsu. Even worse, the Vasto Lorde can use the devoured power to supplement his high speed regeneration, and can even regenerate interior organs (although the brain thankfully can still not be regenerated).

**Resilience- Strength: 50, Reiatsu: 40 - Deflect or halt spirit-attacks, from Cero to Kido.
Strengths: This ancient Hollow has reached the point where he would not be particularly inconvenienced if he had to patiently sit down and wait for the sun to die before he could get back up. He is very, very patient - and has endurance that goes beyond legendary. His high speed regeneration coupled with its unique ability allows him to outlast opponents. He could fight for days without tiring or showing considerable strain unless he was wholly outclassed by his opponent. If he activates his unique ability, any fight with the Servitor will most likely end quickly as he restrains and immobilizes opponents with innumerable reiatsu-devouring limbs - and unlike certain other Hollows, this Vasto Lorde will not pause to gloat.
Weaknesses: Being durable and strong is good, but for a Vasto Lorde the Servitor lacks punch beyond his fists. His custom cero is largely situational, suffering from a lack of directness. The Servitor lacks massive, raw quantities of 'fuck you.' Don't expect massive energetic explosions while fighting this Hollow unless you aren't watching where you tread. While very dangerous if you allow them to surround you, his limbs do not exactly move at the speed of light and can be evaded if cautious enough. The Vasto Lorde is most powerful at close range - distance fighters such as Quincy or Kido users have an advantage as long as they can keep their distance.

We Try Things. Sometimes they even work.
-Parson Gotti, Erfworld
Race: Shinigami Rank: Captain Commander. Division: 1st Division. History: Revealed IC/Other then him being trained by Aaron, Flamberge it is unknown what he has gone through. He does however hate to speak of his past and if it is brought up he usually tries to avoid the subject. However it is apparent that something of great emotional and possibly physical pain occurred to him in his past.
Personality:
Spoiler
A calm presence in any situation Naratsu is the holder of reason and logic in soul society. He is fluid like water in the way he does things and allows only the strongest and most meaningful of things effect him. He shares his calm friendliness with the whole of soul society and unlike former captain commanders he does not stay cooped up in his division all the time.
Naratsu likes to be around people and tends to visit the other divisions often, he even in fact visits the captains who don't want to be visited though less then the others. He has a quiet sense of humor and tends to only lightly laugh at jokes rather then tell them himself.
In times of strife and trouble he is serious and acts as an immovable and dependable force like a mountain. When necessary he will display his true power but tends to keep most of it under wraps for the good of both himself and all.
When it comes to enemies of soul society he does not immediately regard them as such. He will only hate another if they have done great wrong to his subordinates which in his mind is the entirety of soul society. If you harm someone close to him be ready to face a cold wrath of which you've never seen.
Now as calm as he seems on the outside such is not true within. He is filled with turmoil from his tumultuous past. He dislikes speaking of it for it only brings him pain and sadness. He tries to focus less on himself and more on others and loves to help. He does not despise battle and will have a good spar every so often. when it comes to life or death though he will fight to protect at all costs.
Fighting Style: Relying on his zanjutsu, speed, stamina, and the abilities of his zanpakuto he overpowers and outmatches his enemies. On the other hand he is rather weak with kido and thus can be weak against it if he isn't careful. Additionally his raw manipulation of reiatsu is rather low and his hand to hand is just average.
Zanpakuto Name: Mujitsu no tsumibito(Innocent sinner); Ikusen Zaiaku no Kin'iro no Hebi(Thousand sins of the Gilded Serpent). Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: Violent, his sword spirit is a violent scheming thing and its temper does not get better through its forms. Rather its temper gets much worse as its forms progress. When in the form of a girl it is seductive but moody and easily angered if it doesn't get what it wants. When in the form of a white snake aka its bankai stage it is tricky tending to fool those in its inner world into its jaws where it can bite down and eat them. As such Naratsu has done very well to not get his mind eaten by the serpent. He tends to act kind and helpful but is in reality vicious, deceitful and generally ill tempered.

Basic Power: Bloody chains can be unleashed from his blade, and weighs down the mind -leading to the body- with the individual's sins.
_______________________
Name: Mujitsu no tsumibito(Innocent sinner). Release Command: He slowly begins drawing his katana from its white sheath "No light is strong enough to shine through the darkness of the human soul." The tip of the blade exits the sheath and he holds the blade vertically and forwards away from his body. He slowly moves the sheath closer to the bottom of the blades grip as if to make a right facing L shape "As such, let your sins guide you back to the light..." a light shines from his blade and it begins to turn black. "Mujitsu no Tsumibito(Innocent Sinner)."

Abilities: His shikai shows a persons sins before them like curses weighing them down. The more sins the opponent/opponents have committed in their life time the heavier their soul becomes. Both spiritual and former lives are counted (meaning if and when they were human) and as such the weight can be immense. One would think that this only weighs on the mind but because of this it ends up weighing on the body in ways as well.
Slowly the body begins to be effected by the sins it has committed clouding the mind, the senses and eventually slowing perception and speed. It acts almost akin to a poison, however if the body and mind of those effected is strong enough it can banish away the effects. Once the effects are banished they will feel lighter and actually gain a slight boost in abilities, such is one of his greatest weaknesses. Additionally beings who have retained their innocence or most of it are unaffected by his abilities.
The only other ability for his shikai is the use of what Naratsu calls "Bloody Chains." These chains are formed from the blood that is on his blade and act as reiatsu for that's what the blood is. The chains can be manipulated to attack or restrain. If restrained by them the effects of his zanpakuto become much much stronger.
________________
Name: Ikusen Zaiaku no Kin'iro no Hebi(Thousand sins of the Gilded Serpent). Release Command: Let your sins out from your body and mind. You will find that the greatest sin is not letting go. However...all sins have consequences, now meet yours. Form from the darkness of their soul,...Ikusen no Zaiaku Kin'iro no Hebi(Thousand sins of the Gilded Serpent).

Spoiler
Abilities: Naratsu's bankai manifests all the sins that his opponent/opponents have ever committed into a single entity aka his sword spirit. As seen from his release a huge serpent will erupt from the opponent/opponents chest. The more opponents the more snakes will be on the field. Each snake is a varying size depending on how many sins the individuals have committed in their lives. However the snake is always the same color and is always a match for the person it manifests from.
The serpent is usually however humongous and completely white except for its eyes which are a piercing evil red. If his opponent has committed no sins or is exceedingly innocent the snake will not manifest and the full form of his sword cannot be released. Now there is one incredibly unique thing about his bankai and that is the fact that it does not use Naratsu's reiatsu to fuel itself. Instead it is fueled by the sins from the enemies lives for the sins are in essence a fragment of the opponents reiatsu mixed with the blood from Naratsu's blade. So instead of Naratsu taking the toll for the length he has his bankai active, the opponents do by slowly being drained of their reiatsu which is given to the serpents which further increases the power.
The serpents manifested from his bankai are all called by the same name 'Owari no nai(Final Sin)'. The strain that his bankai does however imply on him is mental strain for he must hold back the collective sin of every opponent on the field. If he fails to hold the sin back the snakes will instead turn on him and devour him instead.
Race: Quincy. Rank: General. Affiliation: Army of Heaven. History:
Spoiler
As a human he was fairly normal but was taught the ways of the quincy through a series of scrolls that were passed down through his family and a few others as heirlooms. He was amazing with it and began to go out and hunt hollows for the sport of it and to increase his skills.
He lived to become 30 and then decided to shed his mortal coil and became a spirit quincy. He was sent to soul society soon after and he resided first within the normal rukongai, however it soon became apparent that he was dangerous to even the worst of the rukongai. His reiatsu level was ridiculous and unlike the others in the rukongai, he wielded a bow. Even so, when shinigami of the divisions were sent in to take him on the following occurred:
As usual Quin was in the rukongai, sitting on a roof with no weapons about him. Or at least there appeared to be no weapons, this was the 1st mistake of his challengers. They assumed that he had not weapons but his own fists. They were dead wrong, the reishi and reiatsu all around the area were his weapons and he wielded them with great power. Unlike a normal living quincy, he did not need the cross to hold his bow, however he had adapted something different in order to amplify it.
As he sat, engulfed in his own mind, and boredom, some shinigami arrived. They were both seated officers, one was 5th seat and the other was 7th. Quin didn't even look up as they drew their zanpakuto. Then they were upon him and two shields had formed on his right and left blocking their blades. Well they were white for a moment, then they turned red and the shinigami were thrown back by on odd force.
Quin now glanced up and got to his feet in a simple hop. He looked at each and saw their worried faces, he knew they were hearing the wailing cries of their sword spirits. “Are you done then?” he asked them with a bored look in his eye. The two shinigami raised their heads and narrowed their eyes both calling out commands.
“Raise the walls, Kodoku no yōsai(Fortress of Solitude)" his katana changed into an odd lopsidded blade. The blade had a rounded sphere in its middle that held a lot of weight within it. The blade was fairly thick, much like a broadswords and the hilt, the hilt was utterly strange. In shape it was normal but the patterning and materials were just downwright wierd. The hilt appeared to be made of grey rock bricks and was a rectangle, a very large rectangle. The handle was thicker then normal, as was the shinigami, though it was all muscle.
Quin simply shook his head and held his arm out to his side with it in the shape of an L with one section pointed upwards. His hand was just above his head and his eyes dulled with boredom, yet...no annoyance. "Meet your demise, shingami. Schaltpunkt(Shifting Point)” as he spoke the name a bow formed in his hand from the reishi of the buildings around them. The shinigami attempted to strike with a slash that travelled close to him and then a huge cube shaped enclosure trapped him within.
While within the trap he sighed and formed a bow from the very reishi of the wall making a door big enough to walk through. He was met by the other shinigami yelling out his command as he attacked “Reveal yourself, Kamereon(Chameleon).” His blade turned a myriad of colors and then ironically it became entirely see through, only the hilt and grip remained visible but were slowly fading as well. In response Quin was gone and far from both. He aimed twice and fired two arrows, one at each. “zerfleischen(Lacerate).” He spoke and as he did his arrows changed from their normal designed form to silvery winks of light. Then the air tore and they had no resistance to stop their already immense speeds. However, the shinigami had a stroke of luck for out called a voice “Scatter the mortals!” a command range through the air and then a shock wave resounded through out the area.
When they could see again a blue shield was seen falling to pieces with an arrow stabbed into it. There were two blue shields, one for each shinigami, the man that had saved them was a 6th seat and was imfamous among the 12th division. However, his true name was unknown, he simply went by the title 'Shin'ya(Midnight)'. Quin had heard of him and smiled, finally “well, well, well. Shin'ya. Interesting, it seems you came to the rescue of these fools.”
The two shinigami had almost fainted and then suddenly they both were knocked out and it was seen that a small pressure point had been pushed in an instant by the man who went by the title 'Shin'ya', “Rescue?...preposterous.” At this Quin raised an eyebrow and retorted “well then why did you save them?”
Shin'ya: “I merely prolonged the inevitable, they will die, just not by your hand. I would never save such beings, they are pathetic.” Quin's look of interest increased and he proceeded to fire an arrow at the man. He followed it up with 4 more, however in an instant the back ups shattered into pieces and the original was dodged and caught in the mans hand. “It seems you are as well.” With that he snapped his fingers and both shinigami were gone along with himself.
This left Quin, alone, bored and quite confused. He mused for many a day upon the mans words and his incredible skill. As to power, he did not know. The man had not truly used his abilities, or so it seemed. He did not understand, and didn't till much later.
That later time was after he survived in the 106 incident and even after they allied with the espada. The time when he learned more of this man was the battle that decimated the seireitei. In this battle he watched closely, the same 6th seat known as 'Shin'ya' and saw him do something incredible, he released into shikai and stayed alive and mostly unscathed for the entire duration of the battle.
He and one other were the only survivors and the other was a captain and even he had been wounded severely while Shin'ya walked out almost entirely unscathed. Quin came to respect the man and tenebrae appointed him his second hand man, later after Shin'ya was able to defeat not only Quin, but the other four general's in a 4v1.
From that day he has not only respected the mysterious shinigami, but he has feared him just as much as he did Tenebrae. In fact, he feared him more, there was something too calculative about him, too mysterious that he simply did not like.
Personality:
Spoiler
Intelligent, but he thinks too much of his own abilities. He has little to no humility and is almost apathetic. He shows interest, amusement, annoyance, mild anger, and confusion. He fears only Tenebrae and the mysterious shinigami 'Shin'ya' whom he also follows under.
He has little to no sympathy and he only truly enjoys battle and interesting mental information. He has a fierce loyalty to his comrades and would never betray any one of them for his own gain. He values both power and intelligence greatly and strangely, does not flaunt his own. He has an air of superiority about him that shows even to those near his level of strength. Only the generals, the 2nd in command: Shin'ya and Tenebrae are people he see as equals.
Fighting Style: Lariel is a long range fighter with intense skill in his manipulation of reiatsu, use of weapons, and Hirenkyaku. After which comes his Blut Arterie and Blut vene respectively. He rather stay at a distance, but if he must he will get up close and personal. He tends to approach battle with a certain measure of strategy.
Primary Weapon: Lariel's primary weapon is a bow, like many quincy, and appears as the following. He refers to it as Schaltpunkt(Shifting Point)
Spoiler
Quincy Items: Lariel carries a plentiful amount of ginto tubes as well as a 20 Seele Schneider. For him his cross is merely an amplifier for his quincy powers for his bow forms from reishi around the area.
Letter-S(hifter): His bow has a strange ability, whenever it kills something it absorbs all of the reishi from their body into itself. Additionally the reiatsu bonded to that reishi is given to Quin as his own. Though no long standing abilities can be noted beyond the aforementioned, Lariel's arrows are unique in comparison to most quincy. While most of his kind have fairly basic looking arrows, his are complicated, carved, and decorated when formed. This leads to the theory that his bow streamlines and programs his arrows which would explain his wide variety of arrow types and techniques.
Techniques
Spoiler
Zerfleischen(Lacerate): His arrows go from their decorated, carved form to pure, straight lines of silver reishi. They rip the air 2 yards in front of them making them move through a vacuum and go at least 4x as fast. If they hit they can literally tear a body apart with a single shot. Extremely difficult to block and dodge.
Katalysator(Catalyst): Augmenting his arrows with the absorption abilities of a quincy cross, Lariel fires. The arrows fired with the use of this technique are quite deadly, especially for someone using any type of melee attack. When these arrows are hit with a melee attack they link with the reiatsu of the person and then use its power to explode. The explosions vary in power depending entirely on the reiatsu of the person who tried to block/deflect it.
Knisternde Regen(Crackling Rain): More of a preparation technique Knisternde Regen causes reishi to gather and condense invisibly all around the area within the air and upper atmosphere. This allows easier access to the reishi and reiatsu in the area for his attacks. It is a supplementary technique and is usually needed when he is running out of juice. Additionally he must activate this to use Stillen Glanz. To initiate the technique 4 arrows must be fired into the ground near by to absorb reishi from the surrounding area on the ground, and reiatsu if possible. Additionally a single oddly shaped arrow is fired high into the sky. This of course gathers reiatsu from the air high above. When full the arrow bursts and releases what sounds like thundering noises from a storm and/or a tornado. It begins to rain small droplets of reishi.
Punktion Licht(puncturing light): This is the name of the technique used when Stillen Glanz lands a successful blow on anything.
Störung(Disturbance): Creating blades from reishi he wields them normally and when he wishes to the blades reappear over the designated targets, shake, erupt and turn into a vibrating mass of sheering reishi that rends anything it comes into contact with.
Vollstandig-Stillen Glanz(Silent Radiance): Unlike some quincy, Lariel must use a preperation technique to go into his Vollstandig form. Before he is able to enter he must preform Knisternde Regen after which he is free to do as he pleases. Also strange is that Lariel's Vollstandig takes a massive toll of reiatsu and reishi from the area rather than the Lariel himself. His Vollstandig Splits his bow into two parts and distributes the gathered reishi and reiatsu around his wrists, forearms, and the backs of his hands. When he moves it releases an attack by firing small pellets. Additionally each movement causes an extremely bright, blinding flash of light.
The true ability of his Vollstandig is only revealed when he lands a successful hit. When one of his attacks hit the reishi and reiatsu in them moves. The Reishi and Reiatsu form an instantaneous point of energy at the tip of his attack. When the attack hits the point is un-condensed which fires off a single thin beam of reishi. This will pierce through virtually anything it hits and then the reiatsu that has been super condensed into the beam of reishi explodes. Now the explosion is not that big but it does cause significant internal burn damage to any nearby organs, tissue, and surrounding muscle. This technique is known as Punktion Licht and is incredibly crippling to those hit.
Name: Diluvio, Triste(Sorrowful Deluge) Alias/Nickname: Glutton. Gender: Male. Appearance Age: 20(250). Appearance: He wears human clothing rather than an arrancar uniform.
An unusually Quiet arrancar would be one way to describe him, Triste is a man who would rather be left alone. His eyes are always filled with a kind of sorrowful shadow though in truth he has not had a life too different from any other hollow. It is more how he perceives that past that makes him so unhappy.
Yes, Triste is in fact an unhappy individual. He barely takes pleasure in anything that he does and can only feel released from his life when he is in his ressureccion which is not all that often. Usually he tries to avoid contact with people but ironically he has a large number of rather weak fraccion. In battle he is just as sad and dejected as in normal times. The only difference would be the fact that the glazed shadow in his eyes lifts when he fights.
As to his ressureccion, upon release he begins to smile more and his eyes seem to become alight with mischief and an almost murderous thirst. Well really it is a murderous thirst and he knows this, however he can say that he honestly enjoys the state he is in ressureccion then the one he is in on a normal basis. Now one would think that the personality seen in his ressureccion is sadistic, but in truth it is not. However what it is, is hungry for in his ressureccion his former thirst for the blood of his fellow hollows or generally any being that could increase his strength, returns.
Though he is not easy to anger he does get very irritated when any one calls him a glutton for those who have seen his release and lived to tell the tale tend to and he usually responds with a threat of some sort. He wishes to get stronger in order to better wash away his sorrow and self pity. One other thing to take into note is that he consciously remembers being human, though he doesn't like to dwell on it much. So as a consequence he tends to stray from the arrancar uniform and wear human clothing instead to try and make himself comfortable in the slightest.
Fighting Style: Relying on his heirro, his ability, his hollow techniques, and his hand-to-hand combat, he is rather well rounded. His skill with a blade is lower than others though and his sonido is rather slow.
Numero: 5. Aspect of Death: Gluttony. Sealed Zanpakuto:
Spoiler
Unique Powers:
Spoiler
In his pre-release state, Diluvio is still rather unique as his own reiatsu effectively counters any form of spiritual pressure around him. While the pressure is not devoured proactively, it is still eaten away at with prolonged contact. This causes him to be unaffected no matter the amount of reiatsu exerted due to the fact that it never actually reaches him. Other than this, his rage and/or hunger can rise and amplify his abilities greatly for a short period of time.
Cero/Bala Attributes: His cero is crimson.
Spoiler
Cero Glotton: A cero that eats energy to strengthen itself, if it hits an individual it eats away at their reiatsu for a moment and then uses it to erupt in an explosion. It is almost the equal in power to a gran rey cero.
_____________________ Resurreccion:
Holding his blade with it in its base shape, meaning the cutting part is faced away from the handle. He held it out in front of him with the weapon being vertical and then putting his other hand on it to center it. A low hum is heard and he pulls both hands from the weapon and it is seen that it replicates into two identical weapons one hovering next to each palm. Then the two weapons begin to spin around in a circle between his hands and chest. A sphere of red and black reiatsu forms in the center of the circle and begins to expand. "Devour the world..." he begins and the sphere begins to overtake his body. Additionally the weapons begin to break down turning into white hollow armor and attaching to his skin in fragments. He finishes the command "...and all that lives in it,..." the sphere explodes outwards expanding to a radius of 5 yards around his body.
Then from within the sphere his voice is heard but now, it is different. His voice is filled with a bloodthirst as he calls out in rapture "...Glotón Dispuestos(Unwilling Glutton)." The sphere then appears to be collapsing on itself and when it is gone it is revealed that his mouth was open. There is no other explanation but in truth he had eaten the reiatsu. His body then erupts with the flowing black and red reiatsu and he would begin battle. Appearance:
Spoiler
His mouth is covered by hollow armor aka a skeletal mouth, however the mouth is extra long and actually go all the way to just under his ears and then merges with the skin more and forms horns that point backwards from his head. He gains hollow armor on the front of his legs as well as an additional joint in his legs(like a velociraptor) making him able to run even faster. His eyes become red with hunger and the veins in them actually go to the edges of his uses and form small red markings from his skin making criss crossing and random patterned rays around his eyes.
On his back, mainly lining the spine and the few inches behind it, is a line of armor with spikes on his spinal cord. Additionally his forearms arm entirely surrounded by a strangely black and red patterned hollow armor that form large pitch black claws on his hands. His body actually becomes adorned with normal arrancar clothing, however his clothing is a bit more short cut so as to not get in the way of his fast movements.
Weapon: When he retains his weapon during release it replicates giving him two of them to use at once. Strangely enough, the weapon/s can disappear or reappear in his hands at any point in time.
Abilities: The Hunger of his former hollow self re-ignites into a deadly blood thirsty mind set. He does not become sadistic or necessarily evil but he gains an insatiable hunger that he must feed. If he does not feed the hunger throughout the release he will lose it and seal back into his base form.
Now, in truth that is the ability, however there is something incredibly sinister about it. For something happens when he devours something while in release form. When he eats anything in release form, especially living things, or spirit beings, he actually becomes progressively more powerful over the course of time. The more he eats the more powerful he becomes and practically anything can be eaten, except for his opponent. Strangely he cannot eat his opponent until he makes them unable to move, once he has made them unable to move he can devour them but until then he has to fight them fairly while taking bites out of everything else.
Additionally, when using reiatsu against him in ressureccion, one must be extremely careful for if it is not at least as powerful as a level 50 hado then he can eat the attack and use the reiatsu from it to strengthen himself further. So essentially, one must use physical attacks against him to win and his specialty is speed as well as hollow techniques and heirro. However, despite all its advantages there are two main weaknesses to his release.
The 1st weakness is of course the fact that if he doesn't eat continuously he is force sealed into his base form. The 2nd weakness is a bit more obvious but at 1st appears to be a good thing. You see for the reason for the 1st weakness is the seconds fault in the sense that after release he continually release his black and red reiatsu off of his body and can easily use it to attack with, however due to this massive reiatsu loss every few moments he has to eat constantly or he will run out of reiatsu very quickly. Thus his reiatsu will run out at a surprisingly fast rate if he is not allowed to eat.
______________ Segunda Etapa
Segunda Etapa Vacío Coronación(Crowning Emptiness). Appearance:Morphing into the ghastly form he once had as a hollow, or something similar at least, he gains many spikes on his back. These spikes are all going in different directions, though all vaguely backwards, to form what is almost like a porcupine's thorny back. Furthermore, he has grown a tail of red coloration and tiny thorns all over it's form. These thorns are so small as to be invisible to the naked eye and normal senses, the tail is strong and lithe and very able to move at intense speeds.
Spoiler
Weapon Appearance & Capabilities:
Spoiler
The weapon, like the thorn's on his body, is able to slightly shift it's form. The main, and largest, blade of the lance can move back and forth to make the lance into a scythe or reverse scythe. The blade can also increase or decrease it's size to Diluvio's will depending on how much reiatsu he has 'devoured'. Additionally, anyone cut by his weapon feels an intense malice and inner pain that does not so much hurt as it does distract the mind from what it should do. This is the result of Diluvio's own mind-state as he has moved most of his hunger into his weapon so that he can remain even vaguely cognant enough to fight.
Abilities: Aside from his weapon's ability, Diluvio's own ability shifts as well and he becomes even more deadly than before. Not only can he devour things with his mouth but his reiatsu has the same ability as well. Additionally when things are devoured they can be entirely converted to his will or only partially. If partially converted he will gain a weaker ability, temporarily, of whatever the thing had/was. This can be harmful to him depending on the ability and is thus a risky technique because he never knows when his body will be unable to take any more strain. This is another weakness of this form as if he gets to a certain level of spiritual pressure his body will begin to be effected and if not stopped he will eventually revert or kill himself because of the sheer force of his spiritual pressure. One should take note that the spikes and tendrils on his body can change their length to his will. Due to this his reiatsu, upon release, does something slightly strange, it blasts outwards in one massive wave. Now this seems normal for a release of any kind, but in this case it is not. Diluvio's reiatsu passes over things with no effect and then gradually comes back towards him, devouring everything in it's path and transferring it directly to him. This means that the longer you fight Diluvio, the more and more cramped the space becomes and the less likely escape is, for as his reiatsu becomes thicker it becomes more difficult to pass through without having part or all of something/someone devoured. To stop this effect one must defeat, seal, or kill Diluvio out right.
She is kind and has a thing for the color black. However she is a bit excited and bouncy, she likes to be lively and is usually the center of attention. Despite this she is smart and not all that shallow, but can be misleading. She doesn't typically look up to others for she likes getting attention though she can stand it when others have it, for a while. She can be a bit shy around people that she likes, or REALLY likes. Sometimes she'll get silent and feel confused around the people that she favors greatly.
For example, when it comes to the captain of her division she gets a lot more clumsy around her and seems a bit odd and less focused. As opposed to her when she is around friends or people she vaguely knows. She doesn't really look up to too many other people except for the Captain Commander Naratsu whom she admires for his amazing work ethic and ability to maintain a calm attitude in nearly any situation.
She is usually focused and knows exactly just what she wants and likes. She has definite goals and enjoys having chats with her sword spirit, Aka. However she may enjoy the conversations but she doesn't let the spirit help her too much due to its...disturbing personality. Thus the conversations are frequent, but usually unwilling and she does attempt to ignore Aka when he is being annoying or untimely in his speech.
Fighting Style: Aria relies very heavily on her zanpakuto's ability and without it she is essentially useless in battle. Regardless, for her rank she has fairly high reiatsu and is skillful in the area of hoho. She likes to move around the battlefield and use her zanpakuto to attack and defend. Her other skills aren't low, but they are less developed.
Zanpakuto Name: Aka Hairetsu(Bloody Array). Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: Sadistic and utterly annoying. He is persistent and demanding, he offers help when you don't want it, and deny's it when you need it dearly. He likes to toy with people, especially Aria. He enjoys pestering quite a bit and is very VERY good at what he does, oh and he is persistent as hell.
Oddly it is currently unknown why the name of her zanpakuto is even has the word Aka(Bloody) in it when it appears to have no relation to the weapons abilities.
Sealed/Shikai
Spoiler
Bankai
Spoiler
Unknown.
Inner World
Spoiler
Aria's inner world is a starkly bizarre place filled with many colors but no life except of course Aka and Aria when she enters. The most bizarre thing about her inner world is that it appears as if someone had far too much time and decided to create an entire small, life sized world, from clay. Colored clays of course and as such the whole world has a strange earthy feel and as because of that it does not feel quite right. Additionally the sun never rises and the moon is not a pale white but rather a strange and rather eerie red. From the moon is light that would appear to come from the sun and rays of it are emanated from the strange thing. However one can clearly see that it is the moon and not the sun. The rays that come off from the moon seem to drip downwards as if they were blood.
Sealed Zanpakuto:
Spoiler
Basic Power: Her shikai forms an arc of unknown material and on her wrists are bracelets of varied color; these 2 things together allow her a variety of abilities, each bracelet has its own aspect and only 3 can be used at any one time.
_______________________
Name: Aka Hairetsu(Bloody Array). Release Command: Holding her blade with her right and placing her left palm on the back of the blade closer to her chest she points the blade forwards making it at a horizontal angle. Then as the strange blade, with its holes and slightly dulled, blackened surface begins to shift she speaks in a tone not often heard from her lips. A tone that could be recognized as one from a sadistic women "Arc,..." her voice is soft, yet threatening as she speaks and then the blade does something odd. It splits in half, lengthwise and the two halves, almost as thin as paper, the two halfs bend arounds and then twist in a spiral formation until they snap out of existence.
Then as she stands there with her hands still held as if holding a blade her reiatsu levels drop, no they do not rise or spike ridiculously, they drop. As the levels drop she breaths through the seeming loss of reiatsu. Then a single arc, a curve appears over both her and her opponent/s heads.
In her hand energies form into a sphere and then spike out and disperse suddenly, after which she stands normally and and declares "...Aka Hairetsu."
The appearance of her shikai is quite odd really for in truth all it is, is a cylindrical archway of reiatsu over and around her. The arch is like that found on a doorway, a very simple shape really.
However, in truth the appearance of her zanpakuto, is partially null for most do not notice the ever so slight change in her appearance. For, in truth the only change that occurs is that her zanpakuto takes the form of 10 bracelets, 5 on each arm. However the bracelets are colored each with one color of the rainbow, Roy, G. Biv(Red, Orange, Yellow, Green. Blue, Indigo, Violet, Black, White, and Grey.). The bracelets are usually unnoticed due to her sleeves.
Abilities: Each bracelet represents something and it is pivotal that the user memorize what each bracelet represents and can do otherwise the form is almost entirely useless, and sometimes even dangerous to use. If the user has mastered their shikai they can use a total of 3 bracelets at once. When 1st gaining it they can only use th base abilities of the arc over them and their opponent's and thus only 1 bracelet at a time if the even have them memorized. If half mastered the user can use 2 bracelets at once. If mastered they can use all 3 at once. The Arch, or Arc is a simple tool that is used for showing and using the various abilities of the bracelets both in combination and by themselves. It is a medium and is also like clay, thus it can be molded to any shape and technically does not have a specified amount of mass and takes atoms from the air around it to create more of itself if needed.
All bracelets have reached their 2nd stage of developement and now have improved abilities.
Red:
Spoiler
Fire, liviliness and life in general, this allows one to not only make things combust but to make things become slightly more random and move around a lot more. This can change temperature now at the individual's will.
Orange:
Spoiler
Strangely, this bracelet is rage and tends to amplify rather then do anything else. It can invoke anger or even fury in an unsuspecting user and if not practiced on A LOT the user will be unable to supress the feelings. The amplification of this can now be controlled and adjusted.
Yellow:
Spoiler
Attraction, polarity, Lightning or electricity. This symbolizes and controls the magnetism of two beings or things towards each other as well as being able to conjure up electricity and guide it to a limited extent. This now has the ability to make non-magnetic things magnetic through contact.
Green:
Spoiler
Life, Nature, Plants, poison, and toxins. This represents nature and can either manifest plants or poisons, it is misleading and is never as it seems. The plants can be controlled to a limited extent. This can now create a kind of pseudo life.
Blue:
Spoiler
Water, calm, rain, life. Once again the aspect of life appears and is in control of water and only water. However it can be changed into varying states by another bracelet. This can calm things or people down on contact and when combined with green it makes a stronger pseudo life.
Indigo:
Spoiler
Symbolizing change this can cause a chemical, physical, and other reactions from the other bracelets to cause another ability/use to come into light. The reactions can be better controlled and when combined with blue and green the pseudo life becomes something almost truly alive, though it's will is bound to the user.
Violet:
Spoiler
Earth, the grounding bracelet it keeps anything from floating. This can also be related to the aspect known as gravity. In short this controls weight and gravity to an extent. The weight of thing can be adjusted on contact, the versatility of it's gravity abilities is higher now.
Black:
Spoiler
Chaos, Evil, the state at which everything goes out of control and destroys or screws up all equilibrium around it. This bracelet makes thing surge and fall out of control without any sync or pattern, it is literally random. It's effects can be amplified or strengthened, controlled chaos. It can also effects minds now.
White:
Spoiler
Order, good, the state of being at a resting and orderly state. This can organize things and make them refined and incredibly specific. It can dictate order over anything and thus control it to an extent. This can effect the mind now and it's strength can be altered by the user's will.
Grey:
Spoiler
Neutrality, the ability to be while not being anything else. This does not null abilities but can represent a perfectly balanced state of being where one is neither side of the coin but instead is the space inbetween. This allows the user to equalize pretty much anything or make is neither passive or agressive. This can take the control of an attack or ability away from its original user thus making it simply be there but have no purpose or controller. The effects can be altered in varying ways depending on the combinations.
If anyone wants more information on QpQ, consult Yoshua-- because he has 2 of them and he just loves making me squirm by not using them. -.-; lol

You could always be sneaky and haphazardly jump through a closing garganta. Except... when you get shat out on the other side, don't be too daunted by the task of fending off every hollow and his brother, cousin, aunt twice-removed on its mother's side, and vast menagerie of distant relatives who never show up at family reunions. Traversing the infinite deserts to get where you need to go (good luck asking for directions!) after taking a mop and bucket to what's likely to be legions of starving hollows that would sooner chow down on their next of kin than fast for all of two seconds probably seems like I jolly drive down the candy-encrusted yellow brick road, if that's your sort of gig.
But you're young. You got gumption. You can take 'em. No problem!
Go seize the role of plucky shounen hero!
Maybe add in a few random action scenes, manly poses, and speed lines to make it legit~
Edit; Would've been funnier, if I had churned this out sooner.
This is a continuation of Bleach: Lament of Power, but people are always welcome, it is an A.U. Bleach Rp, all original characters. {Alternate Universe}
The basic premise is the following. The naruto world has been altered heavily by a mysterious force known as Qui Languidis. Konoha has been conquered, along with the Land of Fire and Sunagakure is in a deadlock with Qui Languidis. Their goal is to reclaim an ancient relic that is supposedly the origin of the Rikkudo sennin's power and knowledge. Thus the world has been thrust into a war and those who once inhabited Konoha now reside in Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and a lesser known --but just as important-- Hyougakure. Join us to see whom will claim to the world is more valid.
Azekiel Finndor did not always go by that name; he had a different name once back when he was alive; a name he refuses to share with anyone. His history as a human was nothing interesting. He was a very impulsive child, always out to do what he wants, managing to attract many friends to himself with his fiery personality and air of excitement. He always carried about him a sense of wildness, and elusive stubbornness, so that it would seem like he had been put out only to leap back to life, fighting and arguing and screaming even stronger than before.
As he grew into adolescence, his ability to attract people to him managed to land him in more than a bit of trouble, especially with girls. He was well known for having a new girlfriend every week, and this had made him the enemy of many older brothers and vengeful young ladies. It had become the norm to see that wild, auburn haired boy running through the large town he lived in, chased by hordes of men with machetes and clubs and pickaxes and pitchforks. As wild and promiscuous as he was, and completely lacking any sense of loyalty to any one girl, no one could deny that he was amongst the strongest and best workers in the town.
Azekiel would spend his days, from the first light of day until the last rays of sunshine had disappeared working on the fields around his town, the fields which would feed everyone for the next year. His fiery spirit seemed to be calmed down by being surrounded by crops and golden wheat, as it was only when he was in the fields that no one ever heard his voice. Of course, he would end up being chased around town at night, eventually finding his way into the bed of any of the too-welcoming girls of the town.
One day however, it became clear that his actions could no longer be tolerated, he violated all the rules and traditions of the town, and he had to be dealt with – harshly. It was decided by a group of older boys that Azekiel would be ambushed and beaten while he was walking to work in the morning. They succeeded. Azekiel had never been attacked in the morning before, and it was the last thing on his mind after receiving a slap from the girl he’d hit on the night before. By the time the older boys had surrounded him, it was too late to run.
Azekiel may have been stronger than normal, but he could not overpower all these older boys on his own, he did not go down without a fight though, two of the thugs who tried beating him would never be able to use their right arms again, and a third received a fractured hip, becoming a cripple for life. In return however, Azekiel lost more than he took, he lost his life. And so began his life in the Soul Society.
Azekiels potential as a shinigami was discovered by two shinigami who were on patrol one day, they spotted the auburn haired young man fighting off four attackers who were trying to rob him of a bun he was eating.
“NO! It’s my damn bun, go get your own!” he was shouting angrily as he gave one of them a solid punch to the face, breaking the man’s nose and savagely returning him to the world of dreams. By the time the two shinigami reached the scuffling lot, Azekiel was pounding his final attacker in the dirt, saying something about buns and money and bloody, bloody thieves, and a strange red aura surrounded him. He had to spend some time in a cell after that but immediately upon his release he was recruited into the academy, where he not only excelled, but also received many slaps, punches and kicks from the girls. He learnt that his pretty-boy antics won’t be working on these shinigami girls the hard way.
Azekiel has a fiery spirit, and is always on the move, he can never be found idling around doing nothing, even when there is nothing to be done. He likes to play pranks, challenge people to duels, punch things randomly and is overall, a pretty unpredictable guy. He does have a very easily ignited temper though, and when he has been angered it can be very difficult to calm him down. Some would say that his anger is both his greatest strength and weakness, for it brings with it a determination and mercilessness needed to succeed, but a rashness and lack of concern for his own safety which can cost him dearly, even if he does succeed. He also happens to be one manipulating freak when it comes to ladies, going to great amounts of trouble to make them fall for him. However, ever since he’s become a shinigami, nothing he’s tried has worked; he’s not planning to give up though.
Expect more to be added to this throughout the RP.
Fighting Style
Every fight is a chance to fight someone new, push the limits, show off a bit and discover more about yourself, and of course, you need to let off all the anger once in a while, especially if you’re fiery like Azekiel.
Zanpakuto Name:
Nardame
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality:
Much like Azekiel, this spirit is mischievous and playful. It is more innocent than the dirty-minded Azekiel though, preferring to go around the spirit world dancing through the fields of fiery crops and dancing with the sparks and other flames. When angered however, the previously cute flame takes on animalistic features, such as a lion’s head and body, or a tiger etc. This reflects the wildness of fire, showing that it can be tame and friendly, but with a little nudge, can become a ferocious devouring beast which will destroy s/he who lights it and eventually, itself.

Release Command: Iltahimi ya Chijo no Kasai (Consume O Earthly Fire)
Appearance:
Abilities: Azekiels sword no longer has a metal blade, rather the blade has become one of flame, so hot that it can "cut" through anything, as long as that thing has lower reiatsu than Azekiel. What actually happens is that the blade is so hot that it burns straight through whatever it touches, too hot for anything it comes into contact with to even catch fire. Due to it not being a blade, but a constant stream of fire, the intensity of the flame can be adjusted at will, going from a very long whip like flame to a very short dagger like one, from a relatively cool cooking fire, to a scorching fire unlike any to have existed before or after.

Kokoro grew up in a rich family, in a huge home, and had everything he ever desired...or so you would think, the reality was much more grim.
Kokoro was never a spoilt child, quite the opposite actually, he had to make do with what little his parents allowed him to have, he was never allowed to do what he wanted...in fact, he wasn’t allowed to do anything in general.
Kokoro’s parents wanted him to be the best at everything, and so they hired personal tutors for him. As kind as some of the tutors were, he could never help feeling unhappy and unwanted.
As he never had any friends, he doesn’t know how to socialise with people. He was and still is an only child who was brought up to become the perfect Shinigami, of course; his parents did not see the many flaws in his power until it was too late.
As unhappy and miserable as he felt, Kokoro did have some of the best tutors around, and became highly proficient in reading and writing, and speaking in several different languages. He immediately picked up on Fencing and Kendo and at the age of ten, he picked up on Kido surprisingly fast, but lack of experience leaves him at a disadvantage compared to other Shinigami.
Kokoro’s training to become perfect began at the age of three, when his father locked him into the mansions huge cellar and left him there for three weeks.
Kokoro had not understood what was going on at the time, but his basic instincts taught him that when hungry, you eat, and when thirsty, you drink. Kokoro survived solely on eating rats and drinking water from the drain, the rats carried many diseases, and the water from the drain was littered with all kinds of waste from the house above.
Once the door of the cellar was opened, what was found was a dying child, suffering from malnutrition and dehydration and several other diseases; however his parents would not allow him to get better. They would not give him the Time. They immediately called in tutors. There were several tutors for Languages; three more for fencing and martial arts, there were a few others for General Studies and even more for History, Geography, Mathematics, Science, the Arts etc.
In total, there were around forty tutors whom he had to visit at least three times every week.
The fencing and martial arts tutors were extremely harsh, bordering on cruel, and Kokoro always hated them. The Languages tutors were an arrogant bunch, who thought they had the world at their feet, one of them, the only one Kokoro remembers well, wore round spectacles and had a hooked nose, making him look like a vulture, he always dressed in the most pompous and peculiar clothes, but it didn’t make his temper any the better.
The Mathematics tutors were by far the worst, they said things and expected him to pick up on them instantaneously, not even bothering to check whether he understood or not, they piled upon him books upon books on algebra, ratio, angles, numbers and theorems which were still in the making. It was the Mathematics that made him stay up all night, studying and trying to understand.
Out of all theses tutors, he found the History tutors and Arts tutors were by far the most willing to help, the History tutors had an aura of great knowledge, but their curiosity was insatiable once it arose, the Arts teachers seemed to float around, their heads in the clouds, forever thinking of what to do next...they were imaginative, creative, they were what Kokoro wanted to be most like, with no care or worry in the word other than the upcoming performance, or the next painting.
But the good moments were more than outweighed by the bad ones.
Kokoro’s difficult schedule continued until he was two hundred, by that time he had become an emotionless child, having withdrawn into himself to protect what was left of his humanity. At that same age, Kokoro received five Shinigami tutors, who were to teach him all there was to know about Shinigami and the many techniques he was to master.
Kokoro became a well developed Shinigami and his parent’s plans to make him the perfect killing machine were well under way. However, Kokoro’s power proved to be too much for him to control and his tutors all died in practice sessions with him, his parents got him more, but they were also killed.
Kokoro became so powerful and self-confident that he challenged his parents, who for sometime did not mind, being happy at him for finally mastering his Shikai, but when he started lashing out against them, and openly defying their commands, his parents jumped into action.
His punishment was most cruel and savage, he was taken down to the cellar, which he still had nightmares about and was locked up in there for three years.
During this time, Kokoro lost much of his power, and lost all contact with his spirit, this had the unheard of effect of him losing his Shikai, Kokoro became nothing but a shadow of his former-self. When his parents saw this, they realized that their plans were in ruins and banished him, telling him that he was no son of the Masayoshi family, and that he had disgraced them all before their forefathers. Kokoro did not care.
Once free, Kokoro, now 210 years old, immediately made his way to the Soul Society, that distant place which his Shinigami tutors had told him so much about, it had become a goal for him to be one of the Shinigami of the Soul Society, to join one of its divisions, to journey from his families mansion home, across teh great endless desert, and live there, in that place of freedom. Soul Society had experienced a shocking event however, fifty years before his arrival a terrible incident happened, which caused the death of many of the senior Shinigami.
After a few years in the Shinigami Academy, Kokoro proved to be a talented Shinigami, and was assigned to the Eleventh Division. Since then, he has grown both socially and strength-wise, even though he has not yet reached his previous power level, he is well on the way to doing so, and once he is there, there are things he will do, and vengeance he will wreak. He was only Two Hundred and Twenty Years Old, he had all the Time he needed.
Kokoro is calm and very unperturbed. He is never in a rush, and is not loud or brash. He is respectful to everyone around him. Depending on his mood, he could also wipe the floor with disrespectful people. He can also become quite devilish and mischievous, and get into all kinds of trouble when he has one of his random mood swings. He tries to make a plan and not rush into things, if everything has failed and there is zero chance of survival, he will go all out, and take as many of his opponents with him. He honours fighters who are strong, and always sheds a tear for an opponent he has defeated.
Due to his difficult start to life, Kokoro sometimes finds it difficult to understand the feelings of people around him; some may even see him as harsh, he can be quite cynical at times, and very edgy.
A fight is a matter of life and death, but it is not always physical life or death which is at stake, but something much greater; spiritual and mental death, for in defeat comes failure and disappointment, and disappointment leads to fear of failure, and so one aims to never fail, if not by succeeding, then by never trying at all. That is why Kokoro fights, to preserve his life, and to avoid the worst kind of death.

Shi no Shi
Shikai
Shi no Shi is an old and wise spirit, but beneath his veil of wisdom lies a grumpy old man who just wants to beat the stuffings out of you, and show you that you’ll always be beneath his power and authority.
Bankai
Jikan to Kūkan is completely different from Shi no Shi, he is the embodiment of Time and Space, and the Earth speaks as one with him. His Wisdom is as old and infinite as Time, and when he walks, Space shimmers and seems to bow down to him.
Shi no Shi splits into two when he wants to:

Jikan to Kukan can also split into two at will:

Zanpakuto Spirit Inner World
Kokoro’s inner world is a strange site; the grass is red and long, and covers all of it, from the highest peaks to the bottom of the white rivers. The grass lies on the beautiful golden white soil, which glows just as brightly as the red grass, both their own light source. Up high, the green sun shines brightly through blue clouds, and far off in the distance, the peak of Mount Orokok disappears into the blue clouds and rises up, as high and infinite as Time. The trees in his world grow big, bigger than any normal tree, the smallest can reach a kilometre in height, and the highest disappear into the clouds, like Mount Orokok. Strangely enough, there is life in his inner world, strange little animals that would never exist in the real world...it is filled with all the life imaginable, but not a single human dwells in it, as if showing all the animals that Kokoro himself would have preferred a life devoid of any human life, any Shinigami, any hollow, anything that could think outside of feeding and drinking, for nature alone to exist, and for the most powerful and terrible authority of all to hold sway over all which exists: Time.
Sealed Zanpakuto
Before he realises that the true nature of his Zanpaktou is Time and Space oriented, Kokoros sealed Zanpaktou is a Katana:
After he discovers the nature of his Zanpaktou, it morphs into a rapier. The rapiers appearance can change according to Kokoro’s emotions:
Basic Power
Space-Time
_______________________
Shikai
Name
Shi no Shi
Release Command
キル 死の死 Kiru Shi no Shi! (Kill Death of Death!)
The Shikai is a Naginata which is twice the size of a normal human, it feels as light as a feather for Kokoro, but should any other try wielding it, it’s true weight of two hundred Kilograms will appear. (It's not because Kokoro is super strong, it's because the Zanpaktou chooses to change its weight)
However, its true power is control over Time. Since then, it has changed into a Rapier as Pictured:
Before change:
After change:
Achieved ones are RED.
As soon as Shikai is achieved (Shikai - Zanjutsu- 50, Reiatsu-60):
Kokoro can use Shikai to speed up things, whether they are his friends, a canon ball a Kido or even himself.
It not only speeds up how fast you can go (Shunpo, Senka, running etcetera) it also speeds up regeneration, reiatsu recharging, and sometimes even growth (ageing).
At this point, the sealed Zanpaktou is still a Katana and the Shikai is a Naginata, and as far as Kokoro knows, it's power is in boosting powers already active. For example, if a comrade is running, his power can make him run faster. If there is a Kido being fired at somebody, or used to heal, he can make it increase its speed, and of course, he can use this power on himself.
However, keeping this up for any period of time requires at least 60 reiatsu, with that he can keep it up for a period of three posts, if the time span in the three posts is no more than ten-twenty minutes. Also, while using this on other objects or people, he is completely paralysed and unable to move, making him a very easy target for any attack.
With training:
1) (Zanjutsu 70, Reiatsu 90, Kido 40, Hakudo 60)
After training with his Spirit, Kokoro will discover the true nature of his Zanpaktou and both his Sealed Zanpaktou and Shikai will change form, and will be as pictured.
Kokoro can now speed up or slow down two-three people or objects simultaneously, he can also fight as he usually does while the ability is active, but his speed is halved so that if it is 40 in the stats, it will become 20 while the technique is active.
However, Kokoro can speed up anything now, whether it is people and objects or circulation of reiatsu and speed of reaction, physical things like people, rocks etc. are easier to speed up or slow down and don't have any side effects other than draining his reiatsu and slowing him down, but meddling with things like speed of reaction and circulation of reiatsu is much more dangerous. While doing so he must be completely still, he is not paralysed, but should he move while the technique is active his reiatsu will be sucked away and he will black-out for a few minutes, it is also possible for him to sustain physical injuries from the strain.
Kokoro now has more control over the Time aspect of his Zanpaktou, he can make inanimate things small plants to wither and die or become young and full of life once more.
For animate things, like shinigami or other living creatures, he can make them move forward in time by a few seconds or a minutes, or back in time by a few seconds or a minute. This comes in very useful if someone has recently been injured critically, or has used up much of their reiatsu, as Kokoro can revert them back to when they were at full power (if that was within the last minute.) However, doing this not only requires 120 reiatsu and 60 kido, it also drains ALL of Kokoros reiatsu, so he cannot use it on more than one person in the same battle or at the same time. He cannot use it on himself however, as when he moves back in Time, it means that he never existed in the future, and so could never have sent himself back in Time, so it is literally impossible for him to go back in Time at this stage.
Kokoro still has his previous abilities, and they have been improved slightly. His speed is now cut by a quarter when speeding up or slowing down physical objects or creatures, and the effects of moving when he is meddling with reaction times and reiatsu circulation are less severe, instead of losing all reiatsu, sustaining physical injuries, and blacking out, he now loses some reiatsu and sustain physical injuries. Also, he can now speed up or slow down up to five people or objects simultaneously, however, when it gets to four and five it puts more strain on his reiatsu and depletes it faster. He can only work on one subject one speeding up or slowing down reaction time and reiatsu circulation.
Kokoro has learnt his two first offensive Time techniques, but he requires much training to even understand them. He can now send an iridescent Time wave at an opponent, which makes the area or person it hits wither or weaken slightly. If the object hit is inanimate, like a rock, it will crumble and become sand, a tree will wither and die. If the object is animate, then they will be slowed down severely their speed halved, so if speed was originally 40, it would become twenty. This lasts for a period of two posts, unless the time span over the two posts is higher than ten minutes. This technique requires 200 reiatsu and 170 Kido, it is also physically very draining, requiring 150 hakudo, Kokoro will not be able to use any techniques other than the speeding up/slowing down of objects or people.
Kokoros other technique is a process wherein a Time orb forms, surrounding his sword. This is achieved by concentrating all his reiatsu into his blade and then morphing it into Time energy, which is the power source of true Time Techniques. This orb is then fired at extremely high speeds, one would need a speed of 200 to even notice it, and 250 to have a chance of dodging it, 280 can dodge it. The exchange rate of reiatsu to Time energy is very low, a huge amount of reiatsu giving a relatively low amount of Time Energy, which is why if this technique is successful Kokoro will be completely spent, and suffer serious lash backs for the next three posts (regardless of time span between them) if it is not, the technique will go in an arc and return to Kokoros sword, where he can convert the Time energy back to reiatsu, or attempt to fire the orb once more.
If this hits, it will first wink out of existence, and then an invisible explosion will occur inside of the target, at this stage in Kokoros growth, much depends on the power level of the target, if the target is powerful, then they'll be slowed significantly, their strength lowered slightly, reaction time decreased and reiatsu circulation lowered. If the target is around Kokoros strength level or lower, then they will be slowed to a quarter of their original speed, so if the targets speed is 40, it will be lowered to 10. Their reaction time is connected to their speed in this case and will also be very slow, their strength will be lowered slightly, and reiatsu circulation will be lowered to a state where it keeps them alive, this lasts two posts regardless of the time lapse between them.
However, someone other than Kokoro will need to finish off the target, as he will be weakened beyond measure, unable to use even the most basic Shinigami abilities, let alone his Zanpaktous abilities.
Using this technique puts great stress on Kokoros body, the first time he used it, a very long time ago, the stress was so great that his hair turned completely white. His reiatsu is completely drained and he cannot move because of his weakness, he would need somebody to carry him to the fourth division hospital, and he will suffer this for three posts, and then it will take another three for him to go back to full strength once more.
Kokoros other abilities remain the same.
Kokoro has learnt something new from his Spirit; the ability to pass through Time and Space itself, giving him the ability to get to anyone in less than a second. This is done by opening a Space-Time Whirlpool, and entering it, as he enters, another one opens where he wants, and he steps out in the same instance, like stepping out from one room into the next through the door. It is much more complicated than that however, for as soon as he steps in, he finds himself in an endless iridescent nothingness, and must make his way though Space-Time to the exit, with no option of going back through the entrance. This can prove fatal if he spends too long inside, he could be trapped inside forever, or even worse, the whirlpool can collapse while he is still inside, sending him into oblivion with no chance of ever escaping, it is very similar\r in that sense to the way the Shinigami move from Soul Society to other places, except that in this case, Time is completely frozen for Kokoro until he steps back out into his dimension. It is also possible for him to step into other time eras, or even other worlds, parallel to the one he lives in. This can prove fatal however if another version of him exists in that world, and he may be removed from existence, so he has never done, and never plans to do such a thing.
Kokoro has entered or partially achieved the Form of Time. This allows Kokoro to move in and out of Space and Time without having to open a Whirlpool of Space-Time. This is because he has become one with Space and Time (the Warp.)
This gives him the ability to use some very powerful techniques which he could not use fully beforehand such as “Taimuzuendo no ōbu [タイムズエンドのオーブ](Orb of Times End)” and “Nama to shi no jidai [生と死の時代] (Age of Life and Death)” - the two offensive techniques he could not fully understand beforehand, he only learns their name after achieving Bankai. As he has become one with Space and Time, Time Energy is readily accessible to him, able to call on the infinite reserves of Time Energy. However, this means that he can no longer use reiatsu or kido, he has become an altogether different being, a creature of Time and Space, forever in Bankai, never able to return to his previous forms again.
However, to ever reach Bankai, he still needs to master all his techniques techniques. Even though he is capable of achieving Bankai, Kokoro cannot yet enter it, as he has not trained with his Spirit, and learnt how to – partially – control his Bankai, so when he goes into Bankai, he does not become as pictured above, but his attributes merely rise by ten. This will continue until such a time where he achieves his true Bankai and transcend the limitations of being a Shinigami. To enter his true Bankai, Kokoros attributes must all be equal to or above 500.

Yes, High Master, Emperor of the Two Planetary Spirals of Vlaria and Xeria, Creator of the Polyverse and all within it, President of Jarmoth and Iridia and Grand Dragon of the Order of Iskandar and Rendramor, Great and Mighty Khobihun of the Morians, High King-Emperor Kho.
Born in the Shinigami world Ran was never alive to begin with. The Kiyomura family was one of the many royal families living in Seireitei though it was not a very known one. The characters however that reached the ears of others were always known for their exceptional talent in swordsmanship and their loyalty. The Kiyomura family was small which put pressure on the children. They had to train hard, become powerful and serve the Gotei 13 as best as they could by any means possible.
This was the climate in which Ran grew up. She and her sister Haiko had to practice swords skills rather then play with dolls and study history rather than having a tea party with the children of the neighborhood.
And Ran was such gifted child. Haiko however was not. She just couldn’t keep up with the drills nor did she remember the names of important persons in history. She always fell behind when they did a race and was always clumsy. Still she did not give up and pushed herself to try harder Ran as her everlasting goal. Ran however envied Haiko. Because she was gifted she had to train harder and never had time for herself. When Haiko could go swimming in the pool Ran had to sit inside and work on her manners. A proper way of speech, holding a comfortable conversation and more of those trivial things.
So the sisters envied each other.
Still envy is not hate and despite their difference the sister loved each other dearly. Whenever they had free time the two could be seen together playing, talking, laughing. They would often try to sneak out of the manor (always after Ran convinced Haiko to do it) though most of the time they didn’t succeed. After all they only had each other for company.
Ran strayed away from the Kiyomura family path of swordsmanship when she was 126. It was the year that Haiko died. Killed by a Hollow. The two had snuck out once again and managed to get lost in Rukongai when a Hollow attacked the two. Ran had her sword with her and attacked the Hollow vigorously, but the blade broke on the Hollow’s hard skin and was rendered useless. Since she had no other skills the two tried the only other thing they could do: run, but in vain. The Hollow closed in on them and struck killing Haiko in one blow and smashing Ran to the side where she almost lost consciousness.
She was saved though by a Shinigami. Rather than using her sword this woman solemnly used her hands to fight of the Hollow and blew a hole in his head, making it disappear. From that they Ran swore to herself that she would learn how to fight without a sword. She would never feel powerless again. Sword were tools that could break, tools that could never be fully trusted. Hands were her own and they would never fail her as long as she had the strength left to lift them up.
Not a year later Ran joined the Academy, saying goodbye to her family forever. Immediately she was faced by an enormous difference in people. All her life Ran had spend time around grownups and servants and now she was faced by hordes and hordes of people around her own age. People who had no idea who the Kiyomura family was, people who bullied her. It was all very new.
Personality:
Spoiler
People often mistake Ran for a very serious person. With her stern eyes and way of speech sometime she can seem somewhat cold and closed, but actually Ran likes to talk, make friends and enjoy herself with simple things. She has a great sense of duty and does not hesitate to use any means but necessary to fulfill her goal whenever this is her own or that from the higher ups. We can see this reflected back in her fighting style which is quick and straight with no means of honor or fair play. If someone can be killed by using a dirty way of fighting than she will use that method.
Ran is not the type for flashy stuff. Ever since she left her home she has preferred the way of simplicity over that of luxury.
Fighting Style:
As expected from the Second Division Captain Ran is an expert Hakuda fighter, a Kido expert, and is a tactical Player. She has extreme high speed. She prefers to finish her fights quickly and not to dwindle to much with lenghty speeches and what else. As for her weaknesses in this: she is not a powerhouse so on raw strength she will not overcome an opponent. Her swordsmanship is somewhat lacking, due her dislike of it, and is not enough to defeat most enemies. She will use her sword mostly to release her Shikai.
Zanpakuto:
Spoiler
Zanpakuto Name: Himo no Shiren
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: Shiren is a complicated spirit and this is for the simple reason that it are two spirits in one. You have the joyful spirit Himo which represents Ran’s Shikai and the stern Tetsu which represents Ran’s Bankai. The spirits are exactly the opposite of each other in almost everything that they do. Himo is talkative, Tetsu is silent. Himo is tall, Tetsu is small. Himo wears light clothes, Tetsu wears a black suit.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Sealed Zanpakuto: Sealed the katana is horizontally strapped on Ran’s back. The scabbard is white followed by the handle of the katana which is completely black. On the bottom of the guard are two ribbons: one black and one white. When Ran will activate her Shikai she hold her blade horizontally in front of her and let it touch her left hand palm before speaking the release command.
Basic Power: The ability to give Ran longer reach and to entangle her enemy into her web.
_______________________ Shikai
Name: Himo no Shiren (Ordeal of Strings)
Release Command: Let none escape your judgement
Appearance: The sword completely disappears and around Ran’s hands form two black gloves with a silver ring around each finger.
Abilities: Himo no Shiren let Ran create strings out of the rings on her fingers. Ran can make ten strings at the same time though all of them can be cut off to create more strings. The length varies per type of string.There are five types of strings that Ran can produce:
Himo no Toresu (Trace String): Very thin, almost invisible strings infused with a very small stream of Reiatsu which have no power whatsoever. However when one steps on the Ran immediately knows by a disruption is Reiatsu flow. Nothing happens to the one that steps on the strings besides from the point that Ran now exactly knows where the person is.
Himo no Torappu (Trap): Trap strings are also thin and almost invisible, but these strings are also incredibly strong. Due their invisibility the opponent gets stuck in them before he or she knows what he walked into. The strings will entangle with each other and form a web from which escaping without a decent power blast is impossible.
Himo no Hagane (Steel): Steel Strings are thin, clearly visible strings for those who look well enough. They are use to cut through things especially things that can be surrounded and ripped apart like arms or legs or heads. Steel Strings are strong enough to cut through many things, but a strong Hierro can stop them.
Himo no Chaneru (Channel): Channeling Strings can be used to channel attacks like kido through, but also an incoming kido/reiatsu based attack can be turned away if it hit such string. When the attack is too strong however the string cannot hold all the energy and can either let the attack through or snap.
Himo no Suitoru (Absorb): Absorb Strings do exactly what their name say. They absorb attacks or reiatsu and channel their energy back to Ran. These strings take most energy to produce and cannot be spread out over a great distance.
________________ Bankai
Name: Tetsu No Shiren (Ordeal of Iron)
Release Command: He who denies judgement will feel iron
Appearance: A sword with a round blade appears in Ran’s gloved hands. The blade is dark silver and the round guard is white. On the end of the handle is a chain attached that is usually strapped around Ran’s arm, but can be loosened. The gloves on her arm extend until their reach over her elbows. Further there are no changes to her appearance.
Abilities: Tetsu is a blade that can extend and although it seems like it is based on strenght and raw power it is actually based on speed and accuracy. THe blade itself is almost impossible to break. It has various abilities:
Tetsu no Muchi (Steel Whip): Swinging the blade Tetsu extends towards the target. It can then be controlled by Ran to make very abrupt and sharp turns. The blade is sharp on all edges.
Tetsu no Fan (Steel Fan): The blade splits in five blades like a fan and those blades can then be used individually.
Tetsu no Yari (Steel Spear): The end of the sword becomes pointy and very sharp. This enables Ran to pierce through almost everything. A blow to the heart will certainly mean death.

History:
Spoiler
Eris was born in 742 in Japan in one of the then royal families. Of course since there were so many around this was not really that much of an accomplishment, nor did it mean that you were very much loved by people around you. It was the time of turmoil in the country as the capital was about to be moved away from the city in which Eris grew up. With the sudden lost of the capital to play on their status the Sakei family immediately arranged a marriage for their youngest daughter. Her other two brothers had been successfully strengthened the bonds between her family and others and at the age of the Eris was already promised to follow their footsteps.
Not until she was fourteen though.
During her early years in the house Eris discovered two things. One: she could remember practical every character she had to learn within a second and had no problems with remembering information she picked up along the way. Two: information could be used to make people do what you want. It was so easy. Before the rest of the world Eris was a sweet little girl who worked hard to please her parents, but behind the scenes there was an evil lying dormant as only little girls that can have.
Who cared about being nice anyway. Nobody hardly looked at her normally, but Eris made sure they did after a while.
When reaching fourteen Eris was then finally married off to a member of the Takanomi family. Her “man” was fifteen summers older then she was. Now if this man had been clever he had realized the ability that Eris had. She could have been an excellent addition to his house of assassination. Of course – seeing as women were not more than trade ware those days – he did not see this which was a pity and in some way caused her dead. Eris was an energetic girl from fifteen then. She would not quietly sit in her room to wait until her husband would get back. No she explored.
And was killed by an assassin when she wasn’t watching out properly.
Eris didn’t look behind once when she left the world of the living. There were no hard feelings towards the assassin, no lost hopes. She just passed on setting her hopes on a new world.
And this new world was great. Finding herself back in one of the poorer districts of the Rukongai Eris quickly worked herself up the ranks of food consumers. She was often hungry (thought not more than a normal person would be, but this is much if you consider that many people in the Rukongai were not) but instead of fetching food herself she managed to set up a network of people who did it for her. It was easy. Just a bit of poking her nose in other people’s business. Yes Eris was good in creating discord and getting people to do what she wanted.
She joined the Shinigami Academy more out of necessity that out of free will, but when she did she was overjoyed with the possibilities that it brought. She graduated with top marks though her graduation is somewhat of a mystery as some say that Eris wasn’t that good at school. Eris never spoke a word about this.
Eris was appointed to the Thirteenth Division. However this sweet and peaceful division was nothing for her and quickly she was transferred to another. Eris was transferred a total of five times before she ended up in the Twelfth Division. This was by the time that a new captain was appointed to this squad
Eris was 869 when it happened. She had Captain Hirenka had been working late in the lab. Well it had been mostly Kagura who had been working, but that was besides the point. Something went wrong and until today Eris has no clear view of what went wrong, but something did and then next thing she knew was waking up in the world of the living. Eris can’t remember what happened in the Fourth Division’s barracks, nor leaving Seireitei as she was not conscious at the time. She owns Kagura her life as she most likely had been killed by the Shinigami if Kagura had left her there.
400 years in the living world has it been. 400 years of living with Kagura in Japan, her country of birth. As Kagura worked her way up as a somewhat famous singer Eris never got so ambitious. Looking like a girl of fifteen didn’t give that much possibilities for the working world. (She has begged Kagura many times to give her an older looking Gigai but without avail) But that was okay. There were lots of things to explore.
Personality:
[spioler] Eris is not a nice person though she may appear as a sweet little girl if she wants to. Don’t be fooled. It was a mask. Eris favorite thing in the world is a fight. It is not necessity to fight herself, watching others fight is just as amusing, maybe even more. reating strife, it is in her blood and she uses it every minute of her life. As a result of this Eris doesn’t have many friends, but she doesn’t really care. She likes it if there are people around her (friendly or not) but can perfectly reside on her own.
The only person who gets some remote respect from her at times is Kagura Hirenka, her former captain who is in some sense responsible for her current state. Surely Kagura gets her fair share of verbal assaults from her, but never the less somewhere deep down in Eris’ mind there is respect for this woman. [/spoiler]
Fighting Style:
Eris’ greatest strength could also be called a weakness. Eris’ excels in nothing, but therefore never really lacks anything either. Eidetic memory, quick mind, sharp tongue. Her psysical strenght is her weakest point. In her fighting Eris is straight forward. She doesn't like planning to much and prefers just to rush in. Till so far this hasn't really worked out that good actually, but Eris doesn't seem about to change.
Zanpakuto
Spoiler
Zanpakuto Name:
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality:Shushukukin shares Eris’ love for creating strife. He is an reserved individual who likes to lie about and wait for the opportune moment. He is a gentlemen is some ways, but can be completely asocial when he wants to. He pretends not to give much about Eris, but somewhere he does. He would be nothing without her after all. Shushukukin gets extremely frustrated when Eris calls him Shu (which she almost always does) for it renders himself powerless and to a decreased state of mind (see appearance)
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Sealed Zanpakuto: A regular katana. It’s only outstanding thing is the hilt which is wrapped in a poison green and golden wrap. The sheath is blood red. The sword is most of the time carried hidden in a red cloak on Eris’ back.
Inner World: An ancient temple though of which culture is unknown (it has something Greekish) surrounded by a lake with blue green water. There is only one path to the temple which is surrounded by lilies. At the entrance of the temple an apple tree stands, high and wide it stretches out its branches and leaves as if it wants to cover the whole temple. The apples hanging on it are gold. The door to the temple is closed for inside her hollow lives. The lake is Shu’s domain, the temple the hollow’s.
Basic Power: Tearing the enemy into bits.
_______________________ Shikai
Name: Shüshukukin (Constrictor) dubbed Shü (actor) by Eris most of the time only released fully when Eris calls her full name.
Release Command: Let’s play Shü
Appearance: Shü is a basic looking scythe that reaches just a few inches over Eris. The blade is about one and a half meter.
Abilities: Shüshukukin has only one abilities besides from the regular things that a scythe can do.
Shüshuku (Constriction): Basicly the scythe is deformable and this is not only the blade as many of Eris’ opponents seem to think when she uses this ability for the first time. Everything about this scythe can practically extend (not very far) and slither around the enemy to cut or strangle it in its grip.
________________
Hollow Personality: Eris’ hollow shares her love of fighting though perhaps in a sort of more direct and bloody way. It also quite loves (well more like a real interest in her so to speak) Eris herself though it will never openly admit this.
Name: Arthur Daniels Alias/Nickname: The Play Writer Gender: Male Appearance Age: 19 Appearance:
Spoiler
Race: Fullbringer Rank: Novice Medium Affiliation: Human World
History:
Spoiler
When Arthur was not yet born his parents decided to emigrate to Japan. More specifically they decided to move to Karakura Town. His father had gotten a job as Professor at the university and took his family along. Because of low funding they came to live in a big apartment complex. Luckily the Daniels family found themselves a very nice neighbor next door and the days were great. A few months later Arthur’s mother was pregnant. The family saw this as a good luck sign. The job as professor didn’t pay much, but the family was happy.
Several months before Arthur’s birth his mother got attacked by a Hollow. Ever since then she wasn’t the same anymore. Suddenly she spoke about seeing ghosts in the house and on the streets. She got nervous fits and was afraid to go out. Arthur’s father went to her to many doctor’s, but none could bring his mother of the idea that ghosts were real. Still she was a very kind person and she would spend her days home, curled into a corner singing songs to her unborn baby and telling him stories. Her health however dwindled and worsened even more when she gave birth to Arthur a month too early. She never left the hospital again for she died soon after the birth.
Arthur therefore grew up with only his dad and the friendly neighbor next door, who became one of his best friends. If he ever noticed that the man didn’t seem to change much over the years he never said anything about it. Arthur was a kind kid, but he was also a weak child. In his early years he was often ill. He talked to things that his father couldn’t see, a sign that he could see ghosts. When he grew up he stopped talking about it and his dad figured it was just something of his childhood. This was however not the case as seeing ghosts was not something that went away overnight.
Arthur always had a big imagination. He would dress up and perform plays for his father and his neighbor (even if they didn’t want to listen). At school he was in the local acting club and after that proceeded with a study in screenplay writing. As of late his Fullbringer abilities have been activated, probably due the extreme amount of Hollow’s in Karakura Town.
Personality:
Spoiler
Arthur is a true gentleman, or rather that is what he wants to be. It doesn’t often work out like that though. He is a very kind person, but also rather clumsy and not that overly good with people all the time. Still he tries his best every day, always, with an uplifting attitude. He has a love for classic plays, going to the theater and writing. He really wants to see the best in everyone, but still jumps quite often to his own conclusions.
Arthur doesn’t have that many true friends, but he is generally liked by the people he meets. His openness and willingness to accept everybody helps to support this.
Fighting Style: Arthur is actually not always that confident of himself during a fight and tries to hide this by striking poses and talk as in the fights in the plays of old where characters would. When forced to fight Arthur will try as much to stand his ground and will always tried to defend his friends and home as much as possible. He will attempt to confuse his opponent and then strike him down.
Fullbring:
Spoiler
Fullbring Name: Story Creator Primary Item: Pen and Notebook Appearance:
Spoiler
Pen:
Notebook:
Abilities: Story Creator’s abilities is a clad type fullbring and its power is grounded in Arthur’s imaginations. It is still in its weakened form because Arthur hasn’t fully awakened it yet. What it does is that it gives transforms Arthur in the character he wishes to be. For example if Arthur wants to fight as a pirate he will write the word pirate into his notebook and the fullbring will transform him into a pirate. Arthur will then receive basic knowledge of how to fight as a pirate along with it.
For now Arthur can only turn into standard archetypes. (So no he can’t copy individual people)
The pencil will become his weapon, the notebook in his shield if he has one.
To deactivate Arthur simply has to turn the image of himself that he has in his head back to his normal self. The pen will obey his mind.
When fully awakened the Fullbring will give Arthur the power not only to take on the form of a certain character, but will also grant him the power to set a certain stage. To keep the same example of a pirate. With a fully awakened Fullbring Arthur will transform into a pirate and will also give his opponent the sensation that they are on for example a pirate ship. The opponent will experience all the sensations that one has on a ship, so swaying, waves that smash over the deck, wind blowing etc.

Sana was born in the Rukon district to a family of thieves. Growing up, she never had much’ she simply fell into the life of her family, stealing to live and living to steal. She never enjoyed what she did or what she had become; however, it was a means to an end.
She was always driven by a greater passion; she wanted to do something liberating with her life, something other than following in the footsteps of her family. When she was of age, she disappeared – her family either thought she was dead, r simply didn’t care.
Not long after, she entered the academy and worked as hard as she possibly could to get as far as she possible could. Finally, when she graduated, she landed herself in the thirteen court guard squads. She worked harder than ever and clawed herself to second seat in squad one.
Personality:
Spoiler
Sana is a hard headed, strong girl. More often than none, however, she proves a troublesome person – always getting into trouble for her sarcastic remarks and out of line mischievous behaviour. She can act rather childish and isn’t often caught in a serious mood, unless the situation calls for it.
Sana is almost incapable of hate – unless one’s name is Hinazuka or unless one has threatened the peace of the Seretei; even then, however, she isn’t as merciless as she can come off as. She can be portrayed as a lazy smart arse; however, behind all that, she tries to her work done, she’s simply easily distracted.
She is stubborn and is always willing to put herself on the line for the safety and lives of her peers and comrades. She hasn’t been known to get angry, however, frustration plays a big part in her life – normally yelling at paperwork for no apparent reason, other than she has no ink left in her pen.
She is more of a talker than a fighter; she’ll either use her words to defuse a situation or provoke her enemy into anger, causing them to lose focus. She isn’t one to go looking for a fight; she doesn’t enjoy raising her sword any more than necessary.
Despite her childish, yet confident demeanor, Sana does doubt her abilities; therefore, causing herself to lose focus during a fight. It is one of her greatest downfalls.
Fighting Style:
Sana relies on her Zanpaktuo as the primary use of her power. Essentially, her strength is her greatest feature in battle; however, this can also be a downfall. The relationship between Sword and Wielder is far less than strong. She tends to rely too heavily on her sword, forgetting it’s difficult nature. Kido is her weakest tactic – she was never good at it and she is rather susceptible to it. Her hot-headedness is also a downfall as if she gets too frustrated during battle, she will try to use her Bankai, which, depending on her state at the time, could be very damaging.
Zanpakuto Name:
Hinazuka
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality:
Hinazuka is known to be a difficult spirit, if you will. More often than none, she will not listen to her wielder, leaving Sana to fend for herself in the midst of battle. She can be bratty and rude – often questioning every move and decision Sana makes; therefore making it hard for Sana to concentrate during battle.
She has a snobby attitude and believes that Sana doesn’t have the right to order her around and carries out her orders as if they are such a chore. This attitude makes the attitude between sword and wielder, rather strained. She has a tendency to be very stubborn and always makes life hard for Sana.
When not in one of her moods, however; Hinazuka is known to be remorseless and dangerous. She believes that those who are sinful and evil should be rid of the world.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Sealed Zanpakuto:
Basic Power:
Converts Reiatsu into raw power.
_______________________ Shikai
Name:
Expurgo (Cleanse)
Release Command:
Purify
Appearance:
Abilities:
Expurgo turns all Reiatsu into raw power; it considerably amplifies the physical strength of the body and its speed.
________________ Bankai
Name:
Apstergo (Expel)
Appearance:
Abilities:
Apstergo, in fact, drains Hinazukas spirit from the sword, and merges it with Sana’s, creating almost a completely different person all together. One does not have control over the other, only certain personality traits from either soul are dominant.
Apstergo shows Hinazukas merciless side, not showing a thread of empathy for its opponent. It also shows Sana’s recklessness and sarcastic behaviour. This strange spirit is rather unstable, as it’s very unpredictable. It hold’s Hinazuka’s hate for sin, therefore wants to eradicate all sin in the area; although it hasn’t happened, there is the possibility it could attack one of Sana’s allies.
The merging of the two souls creates a boost of stamina within the state, therefore amplifying the strength and speed of attack; absolute conversion to pure strength. It also manifests metallic shards to the skin of the body making it more durable.
This being said, the sword becomes far more fragile than it once was, as it does not have a spirit inside it and Kido is unusable in this state. The metallic shards are currently unable to manifest as Sana has not fully mastered the Bankai; therefore, over-exposure to absolute conversion takes a massive toll on her body, ending with immense physical pain.
Ryu was born into a relatively respectful family. He grew up us the oldest of three with parents who loved the protective older brother he naturally grew into. His youngest sibling – his sister to be precise, begged him to follow her for a walk one day, he begrudgingly obliged. Fortunately for her, he had gone along, for in the field where she played, a hollow appeared.
Fear stricken, she screamed for her older brother who instinctively threw himself in front of her. He was beaten pretty badly as was his sister – but before the worst could happen, a Soul Reaper appeared and killed the Hollow.
Driven by a new passion to grow stronger to protect those around him – he up and joined the academy. He received average grades and went on to join the Thirteen Court Guard Squads.
Personality:
Spoiler
Ryu is a typical guy. He loves to mess around and he loves to flirt. He plays the cool, laid back guy and always has a mischievous smile on his face. He has a good sense of humour and loves to be around others.
He’s protective over his friends and is always there as a helping hand when needed. Ryu is always the first to jump into a fight, simply because he doesn’t want to see a friend get hurt. He is a quick thinker and always analyses those he meets.
Fighting Style:
Ryu relies heavily on his tactics in a fight. He will always try to outsmart his opponent by utilising their weaknesses and playing his Zanpaktuo’s abilities against them. He doesn’t often use Kido unless completely necessary and his hand to hand combat is rather rusty.
Zanpakuto Name:
Shinzekei
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality:
Shinzeki is a playful spirit, he’s obedient to Ryu and loves to play. Although the small creature cannot speak, Ryu seems to understand it rather well with its gestures and different growls. Despite his playful nature however, he is very loyal to his Wielder.
When his Shikai is released, his demeanour turns into a threatening one, simply because someone is threatening Ryu. He’s protective and will do anything Ryu asks of him.
Release Command:
Release thy darkness before me...
Appearance:
Abilities:
Three shadows shoot out from the tip of the sword, engulfing the enemy in the darkness. Ryu is then able to take refuge in the darkness, cutting his opponent from within the shadow. This technique however, at its current level, can be dodged and has the potential to be broken out of.
Love. You can learn all the math in the 'Verse, but you take a boat in the air that you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurtin' 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
When Rayya was scheduled to be given the hex, the Captain asked Janice as Rayya’s best childhood friend to allow her mind to take the 2nd part of the hex. Fortunately, she was only given a dual personality that is actually her zanpakuto. It only reveals itself whenever the zanpakuto is being used. The Captain said the hex given to Janice will prevent Rayya from killing like before. With that said, Janice also followed Rayya on the path to become a Shinigami.
Personality:
Spoiler
Janice’s actual personality is one that is bubbly. She is a cheeky character that makes others smile with her appearance. She isn’t hated by anyone; however, her dual personality is that of a cold heartless person. He knows that if Rayya goes out of control he must be willing to kill anyone. The difference between the two personalities wise is immense; however, her zanpakuto actually respects Rayya, and would help her if the opportunity is given.
Zanpakuto Name: Dio
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: He greatly respects Rayya and Janice. He would help them if need be, but due to being a demon-like entity, he would kill anyone if they get in his way. He and Janice have such a relationship that whenever he is being used, Janice will submit her body to be used by him. This lets a great warrior fight her battles for her. Oddly enough, she knows what a Bankai is, yet Dio will not let her use it. It shows he is considerate too. Janice is precious to Dio.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Spoiler
Sealed Zanpakuto:
Spoiler
Basic Power: Janice and Dio swap places when a battle ensues. Dio will fight, Janice will wait.
_______________________
Shikai
Name: Asmodeus
Release Command: Reap & Rake
Appearance: The zanpakuto becomes a scythe like the picture above. Janice’s arm is submitted to Dio and he alters it to his arm like the picture above. The thorn-like areas on Dio’s arm become bigger with the more reiatsu he uses to upgrade his attacks. Janice’s Eye’s change to show Dio is in control.
Spoiler
Abilities:
Dimension Link:
Dio will use the Demonic Hand to conjure a portal in front of Janice. This portal can be used to travel a short distance or to attack. He can conjure smaller portals and thrust his weapon inside and have the end appear in the other portal.
Weapon Change:
Dio can alter the shape and attack properties of his scythe to become different weapons like a Reiatsu Bow and Arrow.
________________
Bankai
Name: Leviathan
Appearance: Same as above except wings spout and the thorns glow.
Abilities:
Death Star:
Dio throws the scythe forward causing it to impale the ground and rake backwards to him at high speed.
Chaotic Spark:
Dio casts his demonic hand in front of him, conjuring a demonic ball. The ball spins, shooting out its tendrils, attacking rapidly by propelling in and out.
Black Space:
Dio uses his wings to lift himself 3 feet off the ground. Casting his demonic hand to the left, he creates an electronic spherical area that repels enemies.
Rake Hand:
Dio uses his Demonic Hand in a upward motion, causing a second image of the hand that is much bigger to fling his enemies in the air.
Onrush:
Dio creates a massive spear with his scythe. He flings it at the enemy. It is the only weapon to disperse and come back to him.
Extra Info:
Spoiler
A major weakness with Janice and Dio’s power is that unlessin Bankai mode, if the scythe is somehow removed from her hand, then she loses all her fighting ability. Dio won’t be able to fight for her. She can’t activate Shikai or Bankai unless Dio permits her; however, Bankai can only be activated by Dio as each minute in Bankai drains massive amounts of her life in exchange for its massive power.
In addition, Shikai greatly increases her speed. Portals can be used continuously. Bankai can actually move the portals to enhance long range fights. Think with Portals.
Actually, she does have long flowing blue hair. She typically keeps her hair in a bun on duty or in a fight. She wears the typical garments a Lieutenant wears. She has vibrant blue eyes. However, multi-personalities actively use her reiatsu to distinguish between the three of them, taking over makes her eyes become purple or black. Using the Vizard Eye makes her left eye turn vibrant green. She has her zanpakutou behind her, on her hip, with the hilt facing the left. This keeps her zanpakutou out of the way for a fist fight.
Race: Shinigami/Vizard
Rank: Lieutenant
Division/Espada Lord/Affiliation: Soul Society
History:
Spoiler
Rayya wasn’t as she is now back then. Her past is what drives her to continue. Her family was slaughtered… by her. She actually naturally has an enormous reiatsu quantity. Her spirit pressure was awaked for reasons unknown to her. Her house was destroyed with her family and newborn brother. Ridden with sadness, Rayya went on with her family’s ceremonial blade, killing those who she deemed responsible. Though her best friend was an old Captain the Gotei 13. In an attempt to save her, she proposed to the council that she would hex her reiatsu, preventing it from being used until she was amply able to control it.
The council agreed. The Captain in question set out to do the deed. Upon reaching her, she realized that her reiatsu could be of some use to the Gotei 13. With this in mind, the hex was placed. Oddly, even though her power was sealed, the object guarding it was her own mind, not a third party object. Her mind made multiple personalities; a twisted version of herself that is more or less reasonable, yet will only act in a S&M manner to punish Rayya, and a dark, calm, collected side that I speculate to be her dark side. I believe Rayya may have asked her to do this. Rayya was shortly after convinced by the Captain to join the Gotei 13. However, the Captain proposed that she should gain more control of her reiatsu first. For 600 years, Rayya went with the Captain on tours to learn martial arts as she felt Zen training would unlock her potential. She was correct. Upon learning all she needs to know about martial arts and perfecting each form, Rayya developed a slight phobia of bladed weapons; ironically, her zanpakuto uses a bladelike aspect to amplify her melee ability. 180 years later, Rayya perfected things to be put on a Captain level, but due to her multiple personalities controlling how and when her reiatsu is released, she is only kept at Lieutenant grade as of late.
Personality:
Spoiler
Rayya is cold and blunt. She is quick to make a point, and if someone starts to argue with her, she will remedy the situation with her winning quickly. She is quite intelligent. For her own humor, she uses this for swift and brutal ripostes. She is often referred to as "New Sarasvati" as she is always looking for ways to build her intelligence. She chokes and kills the ignorant (figuratively). She harbors two alter-egos. Even though one is supposed to be sadistic, sometimes it takes a masochistic turn. This somehow is effective for her in combat, though not many have seen it. The third one is more of a dark battle tactician, being able to find a weakness and act accordingly with Rayya’s move set.
________________
Zanpakuto Name: Asura
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: She is arrogant in her abilities due to being seen as a Yakshini. She is willing to help Rayya should the need arise. She seems seductive, but only to Rayya. If anyone else appears, she would respond in a cold manner.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance: A woman with long white hair. She would basically be the idealistic vision of a genie. She looks quite young. She basically makes her appearance based on what Rayya would like to see. Sometimes, she would have a mask on with exotic red markings. She has bands on her wrists.
Sealed Zanpakuto: Nothing special at first glance. There is religious writing engraved on the blade itself.
Basic Power: (Break it down into a sentence.)
_______________________
Shikai
Name: Asura’s Wrath
Release Command: Drown the Light. Asura.
Appearance: Her zanpakuto shatters on sight. Producing 1 billion fine, hard to be seen particles. The particles conform around her hand much like a glove. These form a thin, invisible layer on her hand. The particles are square and rectangular. They will alternate their formation due to the attacks she would want to take. Much like a jet flying in the sky, the panels in the back would move.
Abilities: Her new glove-blade allows her to fight with no restraint of weight in a hand to hand combat session. The particles passively conform based on what attack she is doing. The particles are similar to the hair you have after a haircut, where they may stand up and are prick-ally. Or they may go flat down on the head. The particles do both to A. Deflect bladed weapons. B. To issue cut/stab-based attacks.
Bankai
Name: Chandri
Release Command: Anguish.
Bankai Appearance: The particles from before now glide in the air around Rayya.
Bankai Abilities:
[I]When she attacks, they follow her movements. The method of before still applies however; she isn't limited to only her hands for the particles. She can block any area of her body with it. Her life force is also needed to fuel the particles passive. The particles also combined with the Vizard mask allow Rayya to perform her only ranged attack besides the Vizard Eye. She sends the particles in a spear-like manner. Entering through the threads of clothing, She can insert in the body and perform "Reave", causing the particles to forcibly remove themselves from the body. However, Rayya doesn’t believe in killing her foes with this. Reave connects with nerves in a way that feels the most painful to the individual. Blood will be seen, but it can be lived through with willpower.

Mask: The mask is an exact copy of Haku’s mask from Naruto. Only difference is that the left eye is open. The mask can be partially created for the Vizard Eye, but it is necessary at least palm size is created on her face to use the eye.
Duration: She hardly uses it so 2 minutes is a guesstimate.
Resurreccion & Command: None. She hasn’t acquired one.
Immense Hidden Spiritual Energy:Her true latent powers is hers but actually not "hers". She herself can't decide when to use it. For some odd reason, only her alter-ego, which is still technically her mind, is only eligible to activate it. Therefore, she was cast down to Taichou grade. Since she can't use her immense energy when she pleases, this was seen as a disadvantage. Many do not know of this, therefore she is often underestimated. Keep in mind her Alter-ego is a S&M entity. She seems to work for and against Rayya.
Extensive Mastery of Fist Techniques:Since the dawn of the Way of the Fist, Rayya has studied to learn all there is to learn about them. She excels in her field of C.Q.C. She may even rival the best Captains to this aspect. This is so much so that she even has her Bankai reflect her ability to use her limbs.
Sonido/Shuunpo/Demon Step Mastery:To further increase her mobility on the battlefield in cohesion to her C.Q.C certification, Rayya learned all there is to learn about Sonido/Shuunpo and a step she created called Demon Step. So fast she can actually attack many places at once. She rarely just "walks" to a destination. It may look like she is walking, but she is probably using Demon Step to make a shimmering image of herself while walking. Difficult to notice.
Sword Technique Adept:Her sword skills are mediocre. She lacks the ability to prolong a fight with a sword or any long bladed object. She would lose even against normal members of her division. She only learned what she knows as a prerequisite to be a Taichou. However, her alter-ego is amazing with a blade.
Kido Failure: While she can use the elements with her fists, actually using what Shinigami are taught in school about Kido, she is lacking...severely. She should not be relied on to use Kido.
Yin-Yang Speed-Strength Mastery:Being a Master at hand to hand and speed, she can sacrifice speed for power vice versa. This being said, she can also sacrifice her life force for both, however, this is only if Bankai fails to get the job done.
Zen Meditation:Releasing all tension/short burst spiritual pressure. She is able to relax even in the midst of a battle. She can ignore damage for a longer period of time. She also can blow off fatal blows on her body for a short term before her body gives out. This can also be used as a 2nd Sight or signaling technique.
Vizard Eye:Rayya can call forth her Vizard powers to see what others can't. This DOES take her life force away with prolonged exposure. Without the mask, the effect is weaker, only being able to see moderate shuunpo/sonido and speedbased attacks. Using partial of the mask over her eye allows more power to see, however, her power is detered to that eye. Using the full mask gives better control of "Dimension Link". She can create a portal that when made to contact oxygen, explodes instantaneously. This ability requires a lot of energy without the mask as she is linking dimensions after all.
Name: Eva Markstein
Alias/Nickname/s: Kenpachi
Gender: Female
True Age: 1484
Appearance Age: 34
Race: Shinigami
Rank: Veteran Captain (Called dibs on one of these spots!)
Division: 11th
History:
Eva, one of many of the females in her village, shortly after the Romans ditched Great Britain. Unlike other women, she had stood out as more of a hunter and a fighter than one who was to stay at home and wait for the hunters and warriors to come back victorious.
Her strength in her village grew the more she went out to hunt, using an axe the same size as herself whilst on the battlefield or hunting, she brought back many a slain beast and was usually the most blood-stained, so soon she was deemed by the rest of the village as being a greater warrior than all others and the village prospered for a good while, but all good things come to an end. Eva's end was down to being far out-numbered when the village was eventually attacked by all the surrounding ones at the same time, having grown jealous of the strength of their warriors, the sheer number of foes could not be stopped by their superior strength and soon enough, everyone in the village was dead with Eva still fighting, having lost her axe and resorting to hand-to-hand fighting.
She fell to their enemies about an hour after everyone else had died, it was quite the testament to her strength, but she had eventually fallen even after possessing so much strength.
In Soul Society, Eva was dumped into one of the worst districts there was, but she didn't stay there long, as her strength was displayed in every fight she got herself into, punching, kicking and throwing her way through every obstacle she faced. A shinigami had seen her capabilities and she was approached with an offer to go through the academy to train to become a shinigami, where she could fight and become even stronger, this idea appealed to Eva more than anything else the shinigami had said to her, she just wanted to be stronger.
Blitzing through the ranks after being placed in the 11th squad, Eva had risen up to vice-captain and then to captain just after the Tenebrae massacre.
Now, she's been working hard to ensure that everyone in her squad are stronger than everyone else.
Personality: Despite her size, Eva is quite loud and sometimes rather aggressive, she dislikes the weak and respects the strong, it's as plain and simple as that, but if you catch her on a rare moment when she's not treating you like a pathetic whelp, then cherish that moment. She does what she can to survive, whether others like it or not.
Appearance:
Spoiler
Strengths: Her physical strength is easily the greatest out of all the shinigami in seireitei, and she soaks up damage like no tomorrow.
Weaknesses: She's not very tactical, loving to just run in and hit the enemy and barely uses kido unless the situation really calls for it.
Zanpakuto
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: War-Beast is very primal, as all she cares for is her own survival, on top of Eva's survival of course. She refuses to offer advice as she's like Eva in a way but to a higher degree, if she sees that she needs help but feels that she can still do it on her own, she wont help as Eva would be weak if she needed her help for something she could survive without aid.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Spoiler
Zanpakuto Spirit Inner World: Her inner world is a rather dense jungle, trees all over the place with a small clearing where her zanpakuto is.
Sealed Zanpakuto: A Nodachi with a red handle and a gold hilt.
Shikai
Name: Beast
Release Command: Kill to be stronger, Beast
Appearance:
Spoiler
Two of these, one on each hand, though the claws are slightly larger than that
Abilities:
War beast gives her a boost in her physical strength and endurance, making her tougher than she was prior to releasing her blade.
With every hit she throws that makes contact with something, the sheer force of the hit throws her opponent back, if it's blocked, their sword it smashed out of the way and can sometimes be thrown right out their hand by her hit.
Other than that, there are no actual abilities.
Bankai
Name: War Beast
Release Command: Bankai
Control: Perfect control
Weapon Appearance: No change
Physical Appearance:
Eva's body is now covered head-to-toe in scale-like armour, making her resemble a dinosaur in some ways, she has a pair of tusks that sit on either cheek as well as a small change in height.
Abilities:
You guessed it, even more strength and endurance piled onto her current state.
The scale armour is comparable to a mid-level hierro.
Also, a slightly grizzlier thing she can do that makes her somewhat like an arrancar, is that she can eat a slain foe if she so wishes to regain her strength.
Name: Aliasse Schmidt
Alias/Nickname/s: Ali
Gender: Female
True Age: 80
Appearance Age: 14
Race: Shinigami/Sinner
Rank: Graduate
Division: 2 (Can't see anywhere else I'd like her to be)
History:
Aliasse's life was considerably short, she grew up as an only child and was caught up in the war in Europe, being one of many children to be carted away from their homes as refugees.
Everything went fine during the evacuation and she lived for a majority of the war, almost all of it in fact, but whilst out exploring despite being told not to, she happened upon a mine and curiosity killed the cat, this time the cat was Ali.
Before the war, she had been brought up in solitude, being somewhat held back in terms of what she could play with and experience, seeing as she never got to meet many others bar her parents and the family she lived with during the evacuation, she knew little about the world in general, nor did she know about people.
Personality: Aliasse is an odd girl sometimes, she doesn't fully understand what to do with something unless shown or told what to do as she was cut off from certain things as she grew up. She loves the company of others though and sometimes wont do anything unless she's got a friend with her to help her along the way or someone to motivate her to do her job.
Appearance:
Spoiler
(School photo x3)
Strengths: She's a bloody nippy little girl, that much is easy to say. She's also skilled in hand-to-hand and melee combat.
Weaknesses: As noted in her personality, unless she is near allies, she wont do anything. She's nigh-on hopeless with kido.
Zanpakuto
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: Her zanpakuto looks after her as much as it can, taking on almost a parent role with her instead of the simple relationship other shinigami hold with their zanpakuto, it advises her if it thinks she needs it.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance: Ali's zanpakuto spirit is a large serpent composed of stone that seems to be encompassed in blue flames.
Zanpakuto Spirit Inner World: A large stone chamber with a spiral staircase against the outer wall and a great big lance in the centre of the room, going from the floor to the ceiling.
Sealed Zanpakuto: A wakazashi with a cobalt blue handle and a black hilt and blade that despite being metal, look like stone.
Shikai
Name: Valkryian Force
Release Command: Shield and Lance of cobalt and flames, these are the weapons of pure Valkryian Force!
Appearance:
Her sword changes to a stone lance and shield with a spiral motif on both of them, the shield glowing bright blue and the lance encompassed in flames as Ali herself glows a slight blue as well.
Abilities:
Enhanced agility & reflexes
Stronger strikes
Flaming projectiles: these are composed of blue flames that fire out of the tip of the lance whilst it is solid, they explode upon impact.
Whip-form: The lance can become like a whip.
Bankai
Name:
Release Command:
Control: (Low-level of control, decent control or mastered? A low-level would have a strict timeframe on how long they could stay in Bankai, and a low-leveled or someone with decent control would not have all of their Bankai’s abilities yet.)
Weapon Appearance:
Physical Appearance:
Spoiler
Abilities:
Body Ability: Cobalt blaze armour - Once unlocked, Aliasse will be able to create stone-like armour that is coated in cobalt blue flames, it is highly resilient to physical damage and provides adequate manoeuvrability whilst giving a semi-decent amount of protection. She can grow the stone armour further to turn her whole body into a weapon.
Weapon: Her shikai lance.
Years in Hell: 0
Sin: Suicide (Technically)
Reason for Living: Refusing to let her captain down by just giving up on living.
Disguise(cover face): A light pink scarf that is almost always covering the bottom half of her face.
Name: Melissa Everheart
Alias/Nickname/s:
Gender: Female
True Age: 1489
Appearance Age: Early-20s at most
Race: Arrancar
Rank: Cero Espada
Division: Nope
History:
Revealed IC (Cannae be bothered to finish it here and now, I'll think of it on the fly.)
Personality:
Melissa cares a bit too much, she likes to keep everything and everyone she holds dear to herself safe, even if they don't appreciate it, so she's rather odd for an arrancar, let alone a hollow. Either way, when her allies get hurt, she will take action, otherwise she's a bit of a coward and a pacifist, choosing to hide or run instead of fighting usually. She doesn't normally need to fight anyway. Though, she has a strange infatuation with nature of all kinds.
Appearance:
Spoiler
Her mask piece is a small tiara-like shape on her forehead.
Strengths: Melissa has one of the toughest hierros out of the Espada, along with an incredible regen-rate. Her ability to hide her reiatsu is nigh-on legendary, being undetectable even whilst up-close.
Weaknesses: She's a lover, not a fighter, plus she's easily scared. Easily one of the least intimidating Espada around.
Sealed Zanpakuto: Golden necklace and gold bracelets.
Resurreccion - My "Great Will" shall not be broken.
Appearance: She gains a pair of large yellow wings, as well as being covered head-to-toe in a light yellow carapace armour.
Weapon: An innumerable swarm of light purple butterflies.
Abilities:
Enshroud - The butterflies, almost infinite in number, surround the enemy and start to engulf them in a sphere shape, the butterflies are easy to break through, but as soon as they've closed around the intended target, they cling to them and explode violently.
Cling - The butterflies cling to something, be in scenery or otherwise and can explode on Melissa's mental command.
Eyes and ears - Melissa can see and hear through her butterflies, so if someone says something, she will hear it if a butterfly is there.
Nuture - When clinging to an ally, Melissa can siphon her reiatsu into other arrancar and heal them of their wounds.
No more pain - When in Ressurecion, Melissa can flat out refuse to flee from a battle, when this happens, a subliminal message to not attack her will be implanted in her foes mind, she can only do this to two people at once and someone with enough mental fortitude will break it easily.
Segunda Etapa - Please, submit to my "Indomitable Will"
Appearance: No change, apart from a glowing aura surrounding her now.
Weapon: More butterflies!
Abilities: Ressurecion abilities amplified, explosions more powerful and all physical attributes are boosted.
Arrancar Rank: 1
Hollow Powers:
Back off! - Making eye contact with Melissa is not advised, because once eye contact is made, she can sometimes force someone to back down with simply a determined stare and a stern talking to if they've caused her to have to give them a stern talking to that is, if they lack the willpower to stand up to her then they will most likely submit, otherwise they might stand up to her, few people have stood up to her stare. (Kinda counts)
Custom Cero/Bala:
Nature Cero - It's weird, but it works, as instead of a normal Cero being made when she uses her Nature Cero, a huge mass of vines and foliage start to sprout from her hand, being created by her reiatsu and wrapping around any target who gets in the way before creating an explosion the same strength as a mid-strength Cero, it can hit multiple targets.
A musician and dancer by nature from the very beginning, Kagura always found a way to make even the most basic tunes from the things around her, granted this was first seen as her trying to be an annoying child, but soon after she started, her family realised the latent musical talent she had and they paid for a musical tutor so she could learn more. It was a good thing her family was considered rich at that point, as the tutoring was somewhat costly, but well worth it as she was able to play almost every instrument she could get her hands on by the time she was 8.
Whilst she was taught to play instruments and sing, she was also taught to dance because dancing and singing were both wonderful talents for a young woman to have.
Kagura had planned to join the Shu forces by keeping the spirits of their troops up with song and dance. But she ran from home early after hearing of her father and two elder brothers dying in the current war, she had not left her mother all alone as she had two elder sisters that were beautiful geisha with nobles for husbands. At this point, she was 11.
Kagura ran to the lands of the Shu forces, as they had been the side that her brothers and father were fighting for. She didn't go to fight, but she went to help with the fight with song and dance, entertaining the soldiers with her beautiful songs and wonderful dances. A majority of the troops knew who she was related to, but they never spoke to her about her siblings and father so that she didn't have to remember that they'd died.
Kagura sang and danced for the Shu troops for almost 4 years, but the most recent camp she was entertaining in was attacked by the Wei forces during the night, when most men were winding down. Needless to say, the camp was overrun within a short amount of time and the Wei forces took lives and prisoners, one of them being Kagura, having tried to hide as the sounds of battle started.
Seeing as she had been merely entertaining the Shu forces, she wasn't executed or even used for negotiations, she was first forced to sing and entertain the Wei troops against her will. Shortly after being made to entertain the Wei troops of a few camps, being held in a cage whilst she wasn't forced to sing and dance, she was given away to a very gluttonous noble who supported the Wei forces financially. This was all too much for the girl and she all but broke down emotionally, seeing the look in his eye when he first saw her she knew that a slob like this wouldn't just want a girl like her for just singing and dancing.
After a week, the noble had her do more than just sing and dance, just like she thought he would, he had no wife, no lovers and no heirs, so what came next would be inevitable. But that was a year later and by then, no one suspected she would make an attempt on his life, which she failed in taking as she tried to bludgeon him to death. His guards of course had heard the commotion and barged in to find him still alive, but very battered as he had overpowered her and was having his way with her, causing them to leave almost immediately.
Kagura was chained to the floor by her wrists and ankles and kept next to the noble's seat for a while, allowing him to do as he liked to her when he liked. But she ended up taking her own life after a few months, having thought he would end up giving her another chance to kill him by thinking she'd learnt from the last time.
Upon taking her life, Kagura's soul remained around the noble's palace for only a few days after she saw the vile, gluttonous man die of a heart attack, the satisfaction of his death allowed her soul to pass on to Soul Society and she restarted her life there as a singer and dancer, having turned up in one of the nicer districts.
Kagura's life in Soul Society consisted of her entertaining patrons of a tavern and relaxing at home when she could, so she wasn't a very social woman, instead she spent her time playing instruments and practising her songs and dances, she was dedicated to the entertainers life, even after death. Strangely, her singing and music seemed to be so much more effective to the people of Soul Society than it had the Shu troops, but she didn't question it, as she did it because she could and wanted to.
Many, many years past until one of the regulars of the tavern, a shinigami, started talking to her about possibly joining the gotei 13, as the woman had noticed a considerably higher reiatsu, along with having some form of affect on the patrons with her music and songs. Unsure at first, Kagura soon decided to try it, joining the academy and being taught everything she needed to know about the shinigami and their way of fighting. Due to her dancing, she was very lithe and skilled with dodging and swift movement, but she seemed generally average every other way.
After emerging from the academy as a fully-fledged Shinigami, Kagura was inducted into one of the 13 squads, working her way up as high as she could and even unlocking her shikai after enough work, which was about... 800 years of slowly working through the ranks, using half of those years entertaining the other shinigami with her songs and dances, like she always had. Her shikai ended up becoming permanent though, as she had tried to reseal her blade, but she apparently lacked the ability to do so, though her released blade turned into a pair of chunky, metallic wrist bands and a set of high-tech headphones, granted she had no idea what they were, but she kept on working, training and becoming more attuned to what her zanpakuto had given her.
After another 500 years of training and entertaining, Kagura discovered her bankai was the captain of the 12th squad and head of the science division, but she wasn't there long as something went wrong in the science lab she was working in, trying to develop something that would be able to destroy a hollow through toxins in the air, she had to test this on a live hollow, but the toxin wasn't safe for use in the human world at that point.
Whatever happened, there was a small explosion and the hollow that Kagura was testing on seemed to have been annihilated, the explosion almost killing Kagura herself.
Upon being recovered and brought to the 4th squad to be healed, Kagura found herself trapped in a strange world, it wasn't her inner world, but it was something else's inner world... and that something else was in there with her.
What happened outside in the 4th squad barracks was devastating. Whilst being healed, Kagura changed, her face being covered completely by a mask that resembled that of a hollow's as her body went berserk, causing her to indiscriminately slaughter the members of the 4th squad that were trying to help her with her zanpakuto's abilities.
The thing with her felt like a Hollow's, and she proved to be right as a huge, twisting snake-like thing barrelled towards her, seeming very keen on killing her at that point. It was just as powerful as her due to it's reiatsu merging with her's, so after a long conflict, it fell to her skills and she knew she had to live with this thing as part of her soul now, but she felt a strange boost in power as she was finally able to leave it's inner world.
Waking up and the mask crumbling, she found herself being held down by several binding kido. This was most definitely a surprise to her, but looking around, she saw the devastation and was very confused. Not knowing what to do, Kagura didn't try to fight the kido off, that would make the situation worse, that much she knew, she also knew she wouldn't be getting a telling off for all this... She was probably going to be imprisoned or executed, neither were good.
Being the captain of the 12th division, Kagura had plenty of devices for getting out of sticky situations, this very moment being one of those situations. Setting off one of them, she created a large smoke cloud and a second device let out a shockwave that stunned those who were taking her to be imprisoned. Breaking out of her bonds with a third device, Kagura was gone before anyone could try to recapture her and she was soon gone from Seireitei all together, fleeing to the human world with something else she had developed, a false body for her to use whilst living in the human world, the 12th squad was filled with such useful things, she was thankful that she used to the captain.
Hiding out in the human world for about 400 years, Kagura made herself completely unknown by travelling the world to go back to where her home used to be, as well as seeing everything else. She was intrigued with Japan, having heard a lot about it when she was a child. Japan seemed to be the most technologically skilled country, so she stayed there, going back to her musical talents and becoming a singer for a bar before she soon became a famous DJ.
Kagura enjoyed not being restricted by the gotei 13, but she was always weary in case a shinigami spotted and recognised her, even if she was inside her Gigai, they could still recognise her as who she was.
During the 400 years of journeying, Kagura has slowly trained and gained more control over the hollow inside her, learning to use it's power as well as her own.
Personality: Kagura is caring and tries to enjoy the company of those she meets, but usually, she finds more comfort in playing her instruments and singing. With people who she considers close allies or friends, she will stick her neck out for them and usually protect them unless she knows that they've done something that they are meant to be punished for.
Appearance:
Spoiler
Strengths: Expert in hand-to-hand combat, considerably agile, high control over her hollow and zanpakuto, strong defence due to zanpakuto.
Weaknesses: Close-range fighter, low endurance and strength.
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality: Kagura's zanpakuto is a rather energetic thing, seeming to constantly be slowly dancing from side to side if nothing else. It doesn't really seem to make any input into what Kagura does anymore either, both Kagura and her zanpakuto know what the other will say now.
Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Spoiler
Zanpakuto Spirit Inner World:
Her zanpakuto's inner world is a very simple place, being a large, spacious oriental inn with a stage for musicians to entertain patrons.
Sealed Zanpakuto: Kagura's sealed zanpakuto was a regular katana.
Shikai
Name: Sonic Mistress
Release Command: Dominate the air-waves, Sonic Mistress
Appearance: See current appearance, zanpakuto is the set of headphones on her head.
Abilities:
Sonic control - Any sound Kagura makes, she can use the power of the sound to her advantage, making noise her weapon against foes, or be used as an almost ultimate defence so long as she can keep making loud noise.
Sonic disruption - With a noise generated by Kagura, or within a close proximity of her, Kagura can cause for the sound to be nullified, or be explosively increased in volume to stun foes and break barriers.
Screech - Kagura can scream at the top of her lungs to forcibly throw away her opponents and any objects that may have been targeting her, she can also make this sound knock foes out if they are weak enough.
Barrier buster - This is simply used to break kido barriers and other forms of object barring her way by using a high-pitched squeal.
Heightened hearing - Kagura's hearing is beyond that of a normal person's, allowing her to hear things that are whispered as if they were being said at an average volume.
Bankai
Name: Hyper-sonic Queen
Release Command: Rule as far as your voice can carry you, Hyper-sonic Queen!
Control: Mastered
Weapon Appearance: Mounted upon Kagura's back is a pair of seemingly weightless speakers that she can set down at any time, these amplify her sonic abilities.
Physical Appearance: A little crown appears upon her head that has musical notes all over it.
Abilities:
Sound absorption - The speakers absorb any sound made within three meters of her and become more powerful the more sound they absorb, allowing her to unleash deadly sonic blasts at her enemies, enough so that she could possibly pulp a person's internals if she absorbed enough noise.
Sonic displacement - In place of her shunpo, Kagura can use the energy absorbed by her speakers to move as a speed faster than that of a regular Sonido instead of moving at the slower pace of a shunpo.
Hyper-sonic Destroyer - This is the move she uses to deal major damage to an enemy or their weapon, if she's absorbed enough noise, throwing a seemingly light punch, upon contact with something, the energy generated by the sonic waves absorbed will explode from her fist and destroy whatever it was touching.
Massive Muting - Increasing the range of her zanpakuto's noise absorption, Kagura can draw in a large amount of energy so long as she doesn't move or use the energy until she wishes to stop.
Amplifications to her previous abilities.
Hollow Spirit Personality: Kagura's hollow is very passive since she beat it to submission, it seeming to be content with how she lived, though it always tended to get restless when there were powerful foes around.
Hollow Spirit Appearance:
The hollow took on a much more appealing visual image after a while of being joined with Kagura, but it used to resemble a very large snake.
Spoiler
Hollow Spirit Inner World: The inner world here has also changed, it used to be a strange, swirling mass of what seemed to be ink and shadows, but now it has changed itself according to Kagura's soul, becoming a vast stage with the entire audience area blacked out.
Hollow Mask Appearance: The white mask encompasses Kagura's entire face, but leaves a speaker-like shape where her mouth is, with multiple lines trailing along the mask that look like wires, her zanpakuto is still in view even with her mask on, it simply adds to the image.
Hollow Abilities:
Basic Cero (Obviously)
Cacophony - An assault upon the foe with sound frequencies of varying pitch causes for a foe to be temporarily blinded and deafened as the frequency changes so rapidly there are blinding flashes of colour in the air around her as she releases an utterly abominable sound from the speaker-like mouth of her mask.
Control: Mastered
Resurreccion- Destroyer of Noise
Appearance: At this point, Kagura would shift into a Lamia, having a long, snake-like tail that she uses to move around. There are small circles all along her tail that almost look like speakers.
Weapon: No weapon.
Abilities:
Whirling Symphony - Expelling noise from the holes on a certain side of her tail, Kagura can spin herself around and usually avoid attacks or use the sound waves to deflect projectiles. The sound of this move is considered to be beautiful, thus it's name being called a symphony.
Final Piece - This move is an explosion of sound and sonic waves that Kagura expels from the holes all over her tail, decimating almost anything that is foolish enough to get caught in the 100 ft blast radius. Those who are strong enough should survive, but be heavily wounded.

Takeda life was well, one could say an eccentric one, his birth and childhood seemed to be the most average of his entire life and even then it was abnormal. Takeda's parents met in their late 30's since back then the average age to settle down get married and have kids was 30 younger then that would just lead to hardship and disappointment in the end. Takeda's parents had such a connection they seemed almost inseparable. His dad was Head of a Task Force while his mother was a CPA for the Government they were both rather successful to say the least. Whenever they both had time off they would spend it with each other and their romance took off. Getting closer to his 40's his dad had been thinking about retiring from his impeccable career at the Head of the task force, he had solved over hundreds of cases and brought in criminals from petty thief's to big time assailants.
His father had been the example role model amongst police, it would be sad to see him leave but the benefits provided for him to live on die and provide for any children he had thought to bring up. Meanwhile his mom was one of few CPA enlisted by the government she managed income statements, portfolios, transactions, you name it she had it covered. She had to that was her job if the Government found out she had made a mistake it would deeply hurt the Government and would take a long grueling process to fix. She always came from work tired, but it had to be done the money was good but was it still worth it after these long years. His mother wasn't far from his father’s age only a two year difference.
Years passed by and Takeda's father had finally retired from the Task Force leaving his many friends behind him and now living off his retirement fund, social security, and pension. Takeda's mother also took this time to retire from her job receiving perks from being a government official as well. Together they would live a lavish life not having to worry about money like many that faced poverty and struggled to make ends meet, it actually made them feel bad that they were so complacent. By now Takeda's mom had been thinking and contemplating having a child, but she hadn't shown it which intern made his father frantic about what was wrong with his mother. Finally she came out to his father about wanting a child. Surprised Takeda's father simply reacted by wishing to have a kid since long ago.
So one fateful night the two conceived a child and his mother began her journey in what people called pregnancy. The next months would prove to be harder the two experienced before, Takeda's father secretly wished for a son that he could rise into a perfect mold of his model son. While his mother didn't care what gender the baby was she was just ecstatic to be able to have one. After the first couple of months the two were finally able to possess a sonogram in which they could finally discover the gender of the child. The Doctor relayed the information, it was going to be a boy, the father was short from happy he was absolutely delighted, both parents embraced each other and counted down the days that their beautiful son would appear out of the womb.
It was time for the preparations they had endured quite a lot now his mother lay on her back sweating, screaming, and breathing heavily. His dad couldn't help but to watch the miracle of life right before his eyes. It took a few hours but finally Takeda was born, crying he was brought in a towel to his mother and father where they both smiled and watched their child blossom. When it was finally time to take him home his parents automatically devoted all their time to raising Takeda. They feed him, cleaned him, and bathed him. They taught him his first words watched him take his first steps and celebrated his birthday each year. Though there was something special about Takeda that his parents hadn't known, he was able to see spirits unlike most humans.
When Takeda was at the age of three his parents began to teach him privately, teaching him how to read at a beginner level instead of over protective parents who showed picture books and the ones that popped out, they also taught him numbers which started from 1-10 and over time increased to 50. Years passed by and Takeda had been enrolled in the local school he was in first grade, the teachers were surprised at how much he knew for such a young age, he was talented further than any of the children who were in his class room. Takeda quickly accelerated in school quickly finishing up elementary school and moving into middle school. Again his teachers adored the knowledge and intelligence that he possessed, but he wasn't sold short his parents were to congratulate they were significant people and were equally intellectual.
After middle school Takeda was put into Advanced Placement classes in high school quickly surpassing the lower leveled courses taught to the average student. Takeda soon approached his senior year graduating early and be recognized at graduation as Valedictorian. Though studying was not all that Takeda did in his off time oh no his intuition was natural talent. Takeda's father taught him the ins and outs of what he learned when he was his son's age at the Police academy and then the upper echelon's when he graduated to the Task Force. Takeda took in everything his father taught him becoming very versatile, he possessed the dexterity and agility his father had once possessed. He became a good tactician and a marksman at that. On the other side he worked on numbers with his mother and learned to take care of himself financially.
Takeda wasn't now just the nerdy smart kid in class, but the kid who could kick ass. He led by example by dominating anyone who stepped up to him thinking they could force Takeda to do their work for them or simply bully him around. No he could thank his father for that he was an expert on hand to hand combat easily putting a bully in his place. Takeda did pick up one unhealthy habit that he was ashamed of, he became a smoker, and he smoked a cigarette each week which stockpiled into a pack a week which then escalated into 3 packs a week. His habit was unhealthy but it was his price to the contract he possessed of having such mental and physical knowledge.
Remember when Takeda could see spirits as a child? Well it finally caught up with him. After finishing up college he returned home and lived with his parents for a couple of years before going to pursue his career path, it wouldn't be hard since he had such astonishing credentials. As the days passed Takeda grew more wary of the spirits he could see, but they weren't any regular spirits they were hollows, yet Takeda with all his smarts couldn't figure out. To him they were ravenous monsters who killed humans and devoured them for fun. Takeda then realized his one true fear; though he hoped it would never be him that was faced with a Hollow otherwise he would be defenseless. The first time ever, where he couldn't do anything to help, simply just watch.
And so it happened almost as if he jinxed himself. One day while walking back home from groceries cigarette in hand he stopped by the smell of smoke, not from his lit cigarette, no it was the fire of a nearby house. Takeda dropped his bag of groceries the eggs cracking from the impact, and he ran he ran as fast as his aerodynamic body could take. When he reached his block he saw a massive hollow crushing and pulverizing what was left of his house. Takeda's heart sank to his stomach not knowing what to do or how to go about it. He was in the first time of his life defenseless, quickly entering the house without being noticed he looked high and low for his parents.
That's when it hit him, the bodies or what was left of them was looking back at Takeda straight into his soul. The scene was hard to grasp, Takeda needed to get out fast or else he would share the same fate. Disoriented and in shock he grabbed his father’s handgun and ran outside coughing from the smoke he had inhaled. Takeda took point and looked at the hollow “Over here Mother Fucker!!” he shouted getting the Hollows attention. The hollow laughed and cranked his arm backwards aiming for a punch, Takeda looked down his sight and fired bullet after bullet eventually running out of his clip, but there was no extra ammunition he was good as done.
The hollow on the other hand seemed to be perfectly fine the bullets hadn't penetrated or even affected it in the slightest. With the fully charged fist the hollow cocked it forward slamming Takeda's body under the hollow's massive fist crushing Takeda in one foul swoop. Looking at the fist Takeda couldn't move he didn't want to move his light quickly flashed before his eyes remembering all the happy times he had with his family as a kid to now and how all the teachers and professors he met became friends with him and treated him with the utmost respect, he was exalted, but now he was dead.
With the impact his eyes dilated his final breathe leaving his body, the blood spurting out of his mouth. His motionless body lay there that was the end of Takeda.
Fortunately for him Takeda had a strong soul and had made it to the spirit world. It was weird for Takeda at first, he had been reborn into himself again, but not a human and nor dead, it was an eerie feeling yet he learned how to cope with it through the following years. Living as a soul was bumpy at first this world was much different than the human world and he wasn't wealthy in this society oh no he was in the poverty he wore ragged clothes and he had lost his sanitation. Takeda didn't lose his aspirations though he focused on his body and continued to keep it in shape as he did when he was alive; he worked for what he needed.
Takeda found a steady job and had income while he managed it nicely he became better suited. Now he took showers and wore simple clothes nothing flashy and he was able to have a meal instead of being starved of one or resorting to killing vermin. Just as it seemed to be getting better for Takeda it took a turn for the worse. A band of thieves had been tracking him for quite a while they had learned his schedule and his habits and finally they formed a plan to strike and rob him of all he was worth. It was night when they struck Takeda had been walking home at the dead of night when he encountered a group of men which quickly surrounded him.
Takeda sighed and took his stance before they assaulted him, the thugs hadn't known he was skilled in combat which gave Takeda a sense of pride, but that was quickly diminished. They brought out weapons and more of them showed, Takeda had the same fear he had when the hollow attacked him, defenseless. They bombarded him with attacks; Takeda was getting his ass handed to him by a couple of small time thugs. Then Takeda began to speak first a quiet whisper “Stop...” then a monotone pitch “Stop...” now regular ambiance “Stop..” and now a large roar “STOP!!!!!!!!!!” with that a jet of white light erupted from him. Takeda whip lashed and the thugs were knocked away getting thrown against the walls that surrounded them.
Takeda was breathing heavy the anger in his mind; he looked at his hands which were glowing with a white aura. What was this? What was this new found power? What did he do to the thugs? Questions flooded him like a riptide hitting a rock. Takeda limped home still looking down at his hands.
With the next years Takeda had studied his power and searched high and low for any information that could lead him in the right direction, in the meantime Takeda used the anger he felt that one day and tapped into it allowing him to reactivate the white aura that had appeared that fateful day. Over the course of his investigation he mastered his aura being able to connect with it like it was a living organisms that was part of Takeda it felt good. Then finally his investigation had a break through there was something in the spirit world know as Soul Society which housed the Gotei 13. Takeda curious enrolled in the academy becoming a seated officer.
The Gotei 13 was a totally new experience that he had never experienced before there was the Captain Commander and his division of captains. Admiration came to his mind when he was first introduced to the Gotei 13 he would one day be one of those captains. As for now he was given a plain sword and was taught Shunpo, Kidō, Hoho the basics. And that's when he learned what the magical white force was, it was his Reiatsu. Takeda learned as much as he could like he had when he was studying in high school and in college. He practiced each of his skills precisely until he mastered them, his favorite activities were hand to hand and Shunpo those two were what he excelled at.
Graduation day had come and he was one the highest ranked seats in the barracks being an exceptional student. Then fate gave Takeda a second chance the Captain of the Fifth Division had been looking for a worthy recruit to become his new Vice Captain, Takeda prayed and waited to see who he would acknowledge and pick to be his new subordinate. Moments later the Captain of the 5th Division picked Takeda, overwhelmed with joy he smiled bashfully at his new captain. Takeda was moving up in the world and now he was just one step closer to becoming a Captain, if his parents knew they would have been so proud of him.
The next few years of his life were inspiring and treacherous, His Captain trained him to the tee, but Takeda loved every second of it. Takeda grew attached to his captain and his Captain grew fond of Takeda almost like a Father Son relationship. He was Takeda's second father, he had given him his Zanpakuto had taught him to further his Shunpo and had shown him the ropes to early stages of Kidō both Bakudo and Hakudo. Takeda couldn't be any happier, they often laughed together told reminiscent stories from when they were alive and had gotten drunk together. The good thing about being a soul is cigarettes had no aftermath on your body that was sure of a perk for Takeda.
Training day came, Today Takeda would be taught how to effectively use his Zanpakuto and learn to use Shikai. Takeda was nervous the sweat beads slowly slid off his face, Releasing Shikai was going to be hard worse than anything he had ever faced before. Takeda wasn't ready for what was in store he quickly light a cigarette to cool his nerves, with his courage now intact he could face his Captain. The training started off fast paced his captain wasn't going easy on him, he followed him like a vulture on a dead carcass moving with Takeda and slashing at him with every opportunity he got. Takeda kept flash stepping and blocking with his sword.
Groans of pain were let out of his mouth as he was on the defensive side. His captain spoke “Come on Takeda believe in yourself and prove me wrong release your Shikai I know you can do it, I believe in you, I won’t be afraid to kill you if you fail!!!” Takeda's nerves shook as they slapped him in the face. Takeda had to face reality, but how? How could he release Shikai? He needed to fast or else he was as good as dead. The hit were hitting closer to home, the blood crept its crimson face onto Takeda's body he was going to die this was it. That's when his memory flash backed to the hollow killing his parents and the thug's beating him up for his money. “I won’t give up!!! Forgive me Father for I have Sinned, Genkaku Hikigane!”” the name of his blade. His Zanpakuto engulfed the whole area; the ground below them began to shake as the white aura once again coated Takeda and exploded furiously.
The captain was shocked at his Vice Captain but then a smile crept on his face. In his mind he thought “There you go Takeda I knew you could do it” Takeda was spewing out smoke from his body he was familiar with smoke matter of fact he breathed it in every day since he was alive. But something was different he could feel a toxin within the smoke but it was invisible to his opponent’s, just as he finally figured his Shikai out he began to lose consciousness before he could collapse all that could be heard was “I did it....I did it...Did you see Capt..” a loud thump bellowed and the smoke reformed into his Zanpakuto. The captain smiled and picked up Takeda returning to the headquarters.
Takeda awoke he was bandaged up from the head down, his awakening was sudden and the nurses rushed him trying to warn him to stay calm. Takeda felt fine he had no pain in him it was weird had they given him painkillers. With a questioned look on his face his Captain had appeared throwing Takeda his clothes. “They patched you up with Kidō” Takeda looked dumbfounded” Kidō they healed me with Kidō?” “No wonder why I feel 100%, so what's on the schedule today master?” The captain laughed “Well today I'm going on a mission by myself I want you to stay you’re not healed a 100% and I can handle this on my own” with a sigh and a whinny pitch Takeda muffled “Aw man you always have the fun, I'm fin-” before he could say fine a jolt of pain hit him.
Takeda cringed and his Captain laughed “See what I mean, I can't have you tagging along when you’re not fully rested I wouldn't want to lose you Takeda, Well I'll be back you get some rest and work on your Shikai some more” Takeda felt his heart beating through his whole body, ”I don't want to lose you..” his Captain really did love him like a son. Takeda looked away as to not show his Captain his embarrassment “Alright get out of here, make sure to come back safe or else I'll kick your ass!!” His Captain chuckled and left. Little did Takeda know that would be the last thing he would hear from his Captain that day.
Waking up the next morning he ripped off his bandages and walked outside from there he unsheathed his Zanpakuto and began to psyche himself up, with a calm breathe in he quickly exhaled murmuring the name of his Zanpakuto and its release command. “A white light appeared all around him and his black katana which quickly erupted into two pistols in each of his hands. The whole day he trained learning to change his body into smoke and excrete smoke from his mouth and ears and wherever he could excrete smoke. And then he focused on creating the toxin and releasing it into his smoke. Takeda pushed his body to his limits putting a large abundance of stress on himself “I have to get stronger...” he said before collapsing yet again.
Waking up in the medical division again he went outside and continued to perform his Shikai, this went on for several days. Takeda wanted to show his Captain his full capabilities upon arrival maybe then he would show him Bankai, though he didn't keep his hopes up and quickly went back to focusing on his Shikai. With each passing day he grew stronger, faster, smarter he was able to perform his Shikai's abilities in a fraction of a second and had increased his stay in Shikai to insane amounts of time. The look of dedication on his face was something to admire. Finally he had mastered the art of Shikai, and now he could finally rest without worrying. Or so he thought, he woke up again the next day in the medical Division and quickly got dressed since today was the date his Captain would arrive.
Takeda waited and waited for his Captain to show, everyone around him looked sad and depressed, Takeda was curious to see why everyone was so miserable, everyone who he had asked turned away or left in tears. Takeda began to put the pieces together “No.....” he said. The overcast sky turned to black clouds which then began to pour rain over Takeda. Takeda began to cry his Captain his Second Father wasn't coming back. He was brought to his knees his head lowered, he clenched his fist till they bled and he slammed them against the ground screaming “Why!!!?!?!” Takeda was left in the fetal position outside in the pouring rain. Memories of his Captain's smile ran through his head and of all the good times he had with him. Fate was cruel to Takeda but why what has he ever done to deserve something like this.
The Captain Commander appeared next to Takeda who had been sulking in the rain, the Commander didn't look at Takeda but simply talked “I'm sorry to bring you the news of your Captain, he was an exceptional Captain and an exceptional being, he would have wanted you to take his place as Captain of the fifth squad, we will have the funeral tomorrow” Takeda was taken back at the Commander's final words. ”He would have wanted you to take his place...” it seemed the Captain did care for him even after death. With the following morning Soul Society had grieved over the loss of one of their best and Takeda spoke for the Captain at his funeral. Now Takeda morphed into a different person he rarely spoke to many and he kept to himself.
With the following years Takeda grew into his position as Captain of the 5th Division quickly being noted by his pupils as a model of true perseverance and responsibility. Those were all just empty words to Takeda his real purpose was to train even harder to make his former Captain proud. Takeda began his ritualistic training again but this time with his Bankai, at this time he didn't sleep or eat but focus on unlocking his true potential, it’s what his master would have wanted. Takeda showed no sign of giving up but he couldn't seem to unlock Bankai no matter what he tried. Takeda was out of breathe and tears began to roll down his eyes they hit the hilt of his blade. Takeda could only think of his Captain.
As the memories balled up inside of him he gripped his Shikai with all his might trembling in place. “I'll do it for you Master!!” Takeda shouted as his silver white aura enveloped him and his Shikai changed. He'd done it he unlocked his Bankai he stood there with a massive scythe on his shoulders and the same familiar smoke he had come to love. Takeda cried in happiness looking at the sky looking to see if his Captain was watching, it began to rain again but Takeda didn't care he welcomed the rain he took it as a sign of his Captain crying with him. Takeda laughed and cried this was his greatest achievement yet. Now he had fulfilled his dream of becoming a Captain and being a proud part of the Gotei 13.
Years passed and Takeda was revered as a captain, he went on many missions’ the Captain Commander put him on and completed them with ease. He had fully mastered his Bankai and could easily hold it for an impossible amount of time almost for eternity. Takeda had perfected his Shunpo he was one of or the fastest shinigami in the Gotei 13. His hand to hand was perfected and his Kidō wasn't that bad, he truly did excel in what he did. Takeda had become the person he once was, happy, friendly, a good person. He was no longer sad because he had his Captain in his Heart. The Gotei 13 was relaxed and a new member had joined the ranks his name was Kazuma an exceptional soul to join their leagues, Takeda thought he would go far in the Gotei 13 just as he did.
Takeda was sent on a mission by the Captain Commander again fate had a funny way of coming back to haunt Takeda. On his mission Takeda had to confront a hollow that had been consuming the souls of many innocent humans. Takeda thought nothing of it until he was confronted with the Hollow, Takeda's heart beat skipped and the fear was gently applied to his face. The hollow was the one that killed his family and killed him when he tried defending them. The hollow stopped and looked at Takeda with a devilish smile. Takeda grew furious releasing his Bankai and causing an eruption in spiritual pressure causing cataclysmic effects on the human world’s environment. In a blind rage Takeda lashed out at the Hollow slicing it to shreds until there was nothing but chunks left. Takeda regained control looking at the devastation he caused he looked at the disemboweled hollow and took piece of it to save as a memory.
When he returned to Soul Society he was quickly yelled at by the Captain Commander for his irresponsible performance, since it was his first offense he wasn't punished. That night Takeda began to research the piece of the hollow he had saved and began studying up on hollows. Takeda ignored the cuts and injuries he had from the battle with the hollow and focused on the segment of hollow, what he didn't realize was the hollow began to fuse with the lacerations he had on his hands and forearms Takeda became startled and alarmed trying to stop the hollow from fusing with him. Thought it was too late the infection began to spread the process of Hollowfication began to reproduce inside his body.
Screaming he began to think of his Captain and his Parents, but that had a negative effect the infection began to spread quicker by the flare of his emotions. He started throwing up white hollow matter which began forming on his face into what seemed to be a mask. Takeda clawed at his face touching his mask, though to no avail the mask continued to form and wouldn't cease. Takeda began to fade he was losing consciousness. The he saw feet in front of him someone had come into his room Takeda looked up but couldn't make out a face since it was covered in shadows though he saw long black hair with a red streak that glistened in the moon's light.
The figure possessed something it had its own illumination and it was small/compact. The figure stepped closer and pressed the illuminated object into his body. Takeda's eyes flared but then he fell unconscious. The next day he woke up startled wondering if last night was nothing more than a nightmare. He reached up to touch his face and felt a mask on his face that had been completed, he wasn't dead and it wasn't a dream, how could this be. Without chance to think his room was stormed by Gotei 13 guards which barricaded him and bounded him in chains. Takeda had been brought up on charges of experimenting with Hollowfication and was sent to be executed. His fate was sealed and it wasn't even his fault; he had no say so fighting was useless.
His life seemed useless up until this point he had let down everyone he loved. Suddenly a flash of light erupted in front of him taking out the guards in front of him. Scared Takeda looked to see who had been saving him. It was his.....Captain..... He wasn't dead Takeda couldn't comprehend anything now was he dreaming again or was this reality. His captain quickly broke the chains and shook Takeda and stared him straight in the eye. “Sorry for lying to you all these years I never wanted this to happen, but I needed to research some things and I know who did this to you, but for now you must go I'll catch up with you in a couple of years, remember I'm always watching.” with that his captain created a Senkai Gate and disappeared yet again.
How could Takeda absorb all of this at once, frantically he looked around and fled into the Gate his Captain had created. Jumping through he landed on the other side which was the Human world specifically Karakura Town. Takeda sat and looked into space for hours upon hours, he recollected what just happened to him in the past day, he became a hollow was exiled and sent to be executed and then saved by his pronounced dead Captain. What was going on, all he knew was his captain said he would come back and tell him the truth. That's all he needed he was happy just knowing his Captain was alive and well and that he saved Takeda from his horrible fate, he would enjoy that one day they would meet again.
Over the approximate years Takeda would learn to control his inner hollow and freely used his new Hollowfied powers. This overwhelming power felt new and unlike anything he felt before, his skills changed in fact they increased tenfold even more, his strength was raised his speed was raised and he could use hollow powers more widely known as a cero. Takeda trained like he had with his Bankai and his Shikai but this time he didn't need to think of remnants or be inspired by emotions no he could train with fun. Takeda enjoyed being a Visored he had worked his butt off and could now use his Mask whenever and increase his potential. Takeda mastered his Visored powers like he did with any other thing he set his mind too he seemed unbeatable nothing could stop him now.
Now he would wait for fate to catch up with him one last time and confront his Teacher, his Father, and his Captain. And figure out who and what did this to him and maybe one day seeks his revenge.....
Personality:
Takeda is very brave, willingly a participant in self-sacrifice for others. Rather than die, he does everything he can to get out of a bad situation. While he is no coward, running away from someone if he feels he's no match against them is not something he's shameful about if he feels it's the most reasonable option. However, when it comes to protecting his friends and loved ones, he will risk his life without a second thought. Repeating such acts caused Takeda's life to be threatened even more so than usual. But he is not just being reckless; rather he's demonstrating his bravery and sense of justice.
Basically, he is kind and friendly; He will not harm innocent people for his own convenience and dislikes pointless fighting. He treats even enemies with respect and consideration. When enemies lose their hostility he believes it unnecessary and cruel to attack any further. Takeda has an open heart and thinks more about others than himself, naturally being very unselfish. He is sensitive to people's feelings and can be attentive on an individual basis. To make things well, he treats people gently or, occasionally, severely. He never adopts a pushy attitude, but instead is nonchalantly attentive such as he acted towards his Captain. Being warm-hearted by nature, he cannot stand by and see innocent people suffer or grieve when he knew he could do something about it. His sympathy and consideration of other's feelings are always seen.
In addition to his intense curiosity, he takes an objective view on things. Should a question arise; he would investigate it, even in the midst of battle. When suspicions or ambiguities arose, he would actively investigate, even if he was in a dangerous place. He tried to see clearly the actual conditions or truth in things. He also has a great ability for understanding and an excellent memory. Takeda also has knowledge of a variety of things, all of which he understands deeply. He has particular knowledge of races, spirits and other such entities.
As he is capable of calm judgment in a variety of situations, he is able to fight and act cleverly. He can also perform analyses based on only scant information and make accurate guesses that become solid information. Takeda analyzes matters on the basis of his experience and leads with conviction. He is insightful and can sense changes in enemy movements. He speculated all possibilities and comes to the most likely answer. What's more, there are many cases in Takeda's analysis of tactical situation gave his companions a strategic advantage.
Takeda, much like his father and grandfather, is a peerless womanizer. As soon as he sees a beautiful woman, he wasted no time in pursuing her. No matter where he is, he takes pleasure in the company of a beautiful woman. Takeda touches women in front of him almost as if it was an unconscious reflex.

Strengths: Swordsmanship, Intelligence, Reiatsu Weaknesses: Strength, Hand to hand combat, Kido
Zanpakuto Spirit Personality:
The first thing you have to understand about Jade is that she doesn’t give a shit about anything; she barely pays enough attention to get the gist of things. Jades is completely apathetic and undiplomatic, the only real thing she has going for her is her sex appeal, brute force, and coercion. Jade is the perfect balance to Takeda because unlike him witty, intelligent, and humble she’s the complete opposite. The perfect yin to her yang, the main difference between them is the fact Jade is a merciless natural born killer willing to blow a hole through anyone’s head executioner style. Jade can also be very blunt, using foul language and violence to get her point across. Besides getting off on killing Jade has developed a rather bleak, almost nihilistic outlook on life, relying only on Takeda to guide her with her carefree live fast die young attitude.
Name of Technique: False Fate Description:
The user of this technique requires direct eye contact with the opponent to achieve this Illusion. Upon making eye contact with the opponent the user shifts their eyes to the trance like state their Shikai allows them to enter. When the opponent looks into the foggy white eyes they are lost in whatever they are performing while they are mesmerized by the fog in the user’s eye. After making contact the user can distort the opponents mind, the opponent believes they are still fighting the user, but their future begins to alter. This can be used to either trick the opponent into thinking they’re dead or alter their future for example returning to their village to realize it’s been destroyed. The longer and the more Reiatsu funneled through the technique without interruption the longer the opponents altered future will remain. All of his illusions can be inflicted through wounds from his sword.
Weakness:
Requires Eye Contact.
====================
Name of Technique: Slow Motion Description:
The user take’s their bare hands and creates a very loud clap that creates small vibrations. One the sound has been administered by the opponent it can slow down the opponent’s perception of time. It is able to make one second seem like 100 years for the unfortunate victim to whom it is administered. The more Reiatsu applied constitutes the amount of time the opponent’s sense is slowed. A powerful enough surge of reiatsu however causes the senses to speed up trillions of times while the relatively "slow" body fails to keep up, resulting in paralysis. All his sound based illusions increase in increments, the full effect won't happen all at once.
Weakness:
Lasts two posts, easy to notice.
====================
Name of Technique: Fast Forward Description:
Unlike Slow Motion the user activates their Senkan and creates a supplementary effect of slow motion to themselves. Instead of slowing down their perception the user speeds it up being able to perceive time and movement quicker increasing the effects on their perception. Basic Reiatsu simply allows the user to see their environment in high speeds able to easily dodge or counter an opponent’s attack. Above average reiatsu allows the user to develop a sixth sense allowing them to pick sense danger before it happens or sense themselves being placed under an Illusion (E.G. Spidey Senses). Finally a surge of reiatsu pushes the boundaries of perceptive sense and allows the user to visualize events two seconds beyond current time.
Weakness:
The surge lasts one post and causes severe strain.
====================
Name of Technique: Fortune Teller Description:
A simple jutsu not meant for offensive or defensive purposes, the user simply takes the hand of anyone who he/she comes into contact to and is immediately teleported into their trance. Upon touching hands the user is intertwined with the other persons past, present, and future. This allows them to gain access to their memories and able to see their future.
Weakness:
N/A
====================
Name of Technique: Rewind Description:
The way this Illusion is produced is quite profound, the user is able to adjust their vocal chords to produce and mimic the sound of a tape recorder going in reverse rapidly. Once the opponent has heard the strange repercussion of a video they are lured into the special Illusion. This Illusion triggers the opponent to believe they are being rewinded into the past, for example if the opponent shoots a fireball at the user and then is trapped in the Illusion it would have seemed as if they never shot the fireball at all. This is especially effective is the user slashes or removes a limb from the opponent and then produces the Illusion leading them to believe there arm was never cut.
Weakness:
Easy to detect.
====================
Name of Technique: Stop Description:
Breathing heavily the user makes use of their diaphragm in order to release a blood curdling high pitched scream in the audible word of “Stop!” When they hear is heard the Illusion is triggered. The user takes form of a banshee continuing to make a deafening piercing hollow that causes the user to cup their ears in pain distorting their vision and destroying their eardrums. The second effect to the Illusion is that is freezes the enemy into place as though they died and rigor mortis is setting in where their muscles begin to stiffen until they cannot move.
Weakness:
Can break the Illusion when they are able to move.

Physical Appearance:
Ebony & Ivory are Takeda’s trademark pair of personally customized semi-automatic pistols. In a world of Katana’s and Kido, Takeda has created and perfected an unorthodox weapon to combat said weapons.

Spoiler
Hyo’s life wasn't an easy one; in fact you can call it tragic or just a boy who was shit out of luck. And so the story into Hyo’s life begins. Not much was known before the birth of Hyo his background was sketchy and his family had all died out which left his parents the last one of their line, if they had a son the family would still live through him if they had a daughter...well the family name would die there. Hyo’s parents weren't good parents, hell they were right out awful. His mother was a prostitute who sold drugs on the side while she was distributing her body every other minute. How did she meet someone one to love her was beyond society. Hyo’s father was a drug dealer who had also been in the narcotics game, dealing drugs and making gross profit.
His father didn't answer to any other drug lords since he was his own, he usually robbed other dealers for drugs or bought a certain amount and sold it for double the price. Like any other lonely man who was a dirt bag, he needed to fulfill his sexual needs. Since no other well-mannered or even slightly intelligent women would go near him let alone give up their bodies he had to do things the illegal way just like he was accustomed to. It seemed the only thing he could do now was find a hooker fuck her and leave her. Well that's what he had in mind before he left, that's where he met Hyo’s mother despite being a hooker she was decent looking her calling card was her hair, it was a long snow white hair and arctic blue eyes, these were very rare to have, but together worked hand in hand which attracted a lot of men.
His father being one began talking to her instead of immediately skipping conversation to get to the sex, they talked about how both of them were in the drug business. After snorting a few lines they finally got to the main course or the reason he went and what she was good at. The exchange had been made the only thing was she asked for his number and he gave it to her. They started dating and got a small time apartment and began to acquire furniture and food so they could both love off of. Their relationship was rocky either fighting about drugs, money, or her job as a prostitute which usually ended up in her getting hit or him taking advantage of her. That was the last time he would regret taking advantage of her. The next few months passed and she realized that he had gotten her pregnant; scared she quit her job and secretly began saving money to leave on her own.
When she broke the news he wasn't happy but he couldn't hurt the baby, more fights ensued and the relationship was unstable, the only foundation keeping them together now was the idea of giving birth to this burden of a baby. More month had passed and her stomach had grown in size significantly, her water had broken, but this time was different she knew she was going to go into labor. Being brought into a hospital having no insurance the physicians quickly worked first then talk finances. After hours in the room she finally gave birth to a boy who had white hair and blue eyes like herself. His name was Hyo, unfortunately for them they still had to pay medical bills. Angry that he had to spend all his money on his good for nothing girlfriend he took care of the bill and released his tension and anger on the mother. Nights passed when all Hyo did was cry from the bumps and crying of his mother.
Years passed and now Hyo was five he was able to pay attention to what his father did to his mother and understand what he did and how he treated her. Hyo hated it never wanting to grow up anything like him, but defend his mom. One day his father had caught wind of her plan on saving enough money and moving out of the country and living on her own with Hyo. That was the last straw his father went into an uncontrollable anger looking straight at Hyo looking to deliver a firm punch right to his forehead he was the spawn of all their problems. His mother quickly ran to his aid and took the onslaught of punishment his mother withstood. Quickly running in fear and in tears he picked up the phone and dialed 911 the number on the left hand side of the phone. The police answered but heard nothing but screams and the sound of crying while in the background was thrashing and loud thuds.
In the other room his father had beaten her so severely she was unconscious by now and had crimson liquid pouring down her face. The police arrived and attempted to apprehend his father, yet his rage wouldn't falter. The police had no choice but to shoot him, Hyo had been watching the whole thing his pupils had grown to the size of a pin. With a loud thud his father smacked the floor the whole ground seemed to be covered in crimson liquid. The police looked mortified and reported the call and expressed the severe need for an ambulance. They searched the rooms and found Hyo inside the room the call came from. They asked if he had been okay, but it was clear he had been in shock and could not respond only staring blankly into the officer’s faces.
Within the passing moments the ambulance had finally arrived and had been stricken by the site of the house. Quickly and fluently they had pulled out a stretcher and carefully placed his mother on the stretcher and had strapped her down placing a neck brace and placing the I.V. Needle in her arm, her heart beat wasn't the highest and slowly began to drop. The other ambulance had taken the father's body and wrapped it into a body bag, pulling the zipper up and wheeling the dead carcass into another truck sent to deliver the body to the mortician.
Child Protective Services had come into play and took Hyo from the police department and assigned him to an orphanage where he would be selected by a foster family to be raised yet again. By now Hyo had recovered but he was a quite boy who didn't interact with anything or anyone. Before they dropped him off they informed him that his mother died in the ambulance they tried their best to save her but there was nothing they could do and by the time they go to the hospital it was too late. The news didn't shake or move Hyo emotionally or physically, all he wanted to do was be free from the Child Protective services. Hyo would regret that too. Disturbed that the child had no remorse the spokeswoman turned around just before they arrived at they're destination.
They had reached the orphanage and the spokesman had led Hyo out and towards the gates of the Orphanage. Opening the old tattered gate doors Hyo looked at all the other kids who had been just like him playing on swing sets or chasing each other around. He was around seven by now, he had made into the Orphanage's Care Takers office were the two women began to talk of his stay and began to share stories and sign the papers to file custody of the child until he was adopted. The loud conversation was slowly tuned out since he had been focusing on the window leading to the playground. Getting out of his seat he walked towards it, the two women not thinking any of it. The view was nice and the kids looked happy, something that Hyo craved something he had been so deprived from all his life, he was hungry and he wanted it now. They had finished signing the contracts and looked them over once more before the meeting was adjourned.
The spokeswoman took one last look at the kid and smiled before she walked out, that smile would linger forever in his memory. Hyo then shot a quick glare at the Care Taker who made childish noises and tried to get Hyo to open up. That wasn't happening, after shortly giving up she became stubborn crossing her arms and scoffing. She led Hyo first to his room then the cafeteria and then the main room where each kid would stand and be inspected by other families who desperately wanted another child. This reminded Hyo of people window shopping for pets until they found the perfect one, but Hyo detested it he was done being controlled and useless he wanted to be a Leader and a powerful one at that so no one like his father could stand in his way. Finally, the most awaited part that caught Hyo’s attention most was the playground, once there she captured the attention of each of the children who had already attended and introduced them to Hyo. She expected them to introduce themselves properly and behave themselves.
Turns out they didn't behave themselves, over the course of three years Hyo had settled in nicely finding a girl who he shared common interest with and someone he had actually had liked who reminded him of his mother from his viewpoint. There's were most of his troubles began; they gave birth from his association with the girl. Turns out she had already been claimed by some other boy in the playground. This kid was the real deal he was taller bigger and stronger then Hyo and he had a gang of kids with him to boot. The first time he confronted Hyo was the start of Hyo’s life sentence, he had yelled at the girl for talking to Hyo and quickly punished her by smacking her across the face. Hyo’s mind went blank reminiscing of all the suppressed memories of his father beating his mother and since she reminded him of her he correlated his bully with his dad.
In a blind fit of rage Hyo stood and confronted his bully and punched him square in the face, Bad move on his end of the bargain, He was much taller and bigger then Hyo it seemed that the bully only absorbed the attack from his large body mass. Slowly returning his head back to its normal spot he cracked his neck and then his fist before sending his squad of goons in to soften him up. Tied down Hyo was defenseless and began to get tortured and ridiculed by his bully. This went on for some time without no avail his care taker didn't stop them and no one else helped him out of shear fear of what the bully would do to them in the associated himself with Hyo. The girl yelled and cried for him to stop but was always met with firm action, against his own better judgment Hyo would not allow for her to get hit and standing up for her when he knew nothing good would come from it.
A beacon of hope seemed to bathe Hyo when finally he was adopted at the age of 14 he was picked from being different, he was small had long white hair and blue eyes like his mother and wasn't looking to be adopted shown by having his head low and in the back. Hyo vowed to the girl before he left that he would return and save her and bring her with him, she believed him. Little did he know that his new family was only one man. At first Hyo was stubborn and cautious since he couldn't trust anyone and had no faith in anyone else since he thought most people turned their backs and hurt you no matter what. But his foster dad was far from his normal description of people, he slowly tried to coax Hyo into talking by giving him food, clothes, a nice shower and most important...space. Slowly, but surely he began to open up, and then their relationship sky rocketed. This man wasn't his foster parent he was his first and only dad the other one was dead to him.
His new father taught everything to Hyo seeing as he had been deprived and not properly trained as a child. He taught him how to be polite and have manners which for the most part was the dominant area that he was trained in. Hyo slowly but surely turned from an orphan into a gentlemen within the matter of two years, now he was 16. His father also tutored him vigorously, but in a way Hyo loved it, education became a passion for Hyo and he spent all of his time learning and increasing his IQ. There was thing in particular that fascinated him the most, that was the Egyptians and they're society and form of government. They had a pharaoh who led the whole nation and the villagers loved him and praised him as their ruler and god. It reminded of the power Hyo craved for the attention he craved for the respect he craved for. His fascination cultivated with the discovery of the Egyptian Gods, one in particular, Anubis the God of Death and Embalming he had served as a role model for Hyo.
During Hyo’s off time he had studied with his father the form of Martial Arts, Hyo wanted this more than anything he wanted a way of protecting himself and others that he held dear to him, and destroy those who got in the way of his goals. More importantly the girl he had met in the Orphanage and the boy who had bullied him and treated the girl like shit. His father raised him into a role model son on the outside, but Hyo was mentally unbalanced on the inside. His knowledge evolved from first graders to that of a college professor and now he was the age of 23. Hyo’s father got old and lived the remainder of his day's through Hyo as he loved and cared for him. Hyo just had one thing on his agenda that he had kept a promise all this time. Hyo would fulfill his promise to the girl he met in the orphanage her name was Rose.
Hyo went to his old Orphanage and talked to the new Care Taker who was a young male like himself, he had asked for the records of the two and was shocked to hear the answer. The two had gotten married and lived two blocks away from the Orphanage. Hyo left and calmly walked the two blocks until he reached the house. Swallowing his fear he knocked on the door his heart began to race, the knob began to twist open and it was Rose, she had long beautiful red hair and hazel eyes, she sure had grown since the last time he saw her. Hyo introduced himself like the gentlemen he had become and was very polite. She was torn that he kept his promise but confused because she had married the man that abused her so.
She apologized, but before she could say anything else “He” came to the door. The man looked at Hyo from head to toe and then it hit him, he laughed at how much Hyo had grown and how he was still bigger than him. “Hey pipsqueak what you doing around here and why the hell are you talking to this dirt bag rose?” She lowered her head and squinted her eyes from his constant abuse and belittling, Hyo released it was still apparent in their relationship. “I'm here to fulfill my promise” he laughed “What stupid promise is that?” he asked. Hyo looked him in the eye and said “Kick your ass and take my girl” Rose looked up in admiration while he looked angry about to slap her before Hyo intercepted his hand. “No more” now he was infuriated pushing rose aside and taking a stance before lunging at Hyo, with a simple dodge Hyo ignored the monsters arm.
Then he moved in delivering a punch to his solar plexus and then one to his nose, it happened within a second. Rose was stunned and covered her mouth while the brute fell to the ground crying in pain “Get out and don't come back or I'll kill you” The heathen got up and limped out into the street. Hyo walked up the stairs and helped rose up “I didn't want--” he couldn't finish as he felt her warm lips on his, he was entranced in bliss he longed to see her and to be with her and now it was possible. They're lips departed “Stay with me tonight” she said, Hyo nodded and hand in hand they entered the house. Words were short as they touched flesh again, this time more passionate and affectionate, they knocked books and decorations off tables until they made it to rose's room, you can tell what happened next.
Nightfall had crept through the window of her room the moon's light basking the land below it, Hyo looked at rose “I have to go I'll be back tomorrow” he said smiling cheerfully, rose nodded and chuckled playfully as she lay in bed. Hyo walked out the front gates and began walking home he looked into the sky his face illuminated from sheer happiness he couldn't help but to contemplate the little things that got him here. The moon was his guide home but something was wrong the front door had signs of a forced entry, in a panic Hyo ran barreling into his house, he looked high and low for his father finally finding him in the living room with a knife in his chest he was still alive though barely. Hyo in tears came to his side holding his father in his arms “No...no....no...who did this to you” his dad smiled at his son's presence “Listen there's no time I just want you to know I love you and I'm happy I picked you in that orphanage, take care of yourself and don't forget what I've taught y--”
His voice faded and his body went limp; closing his eyes he sobbed before letting the body down. Suddenly a set of feet could be heard clapping Hyo turned to look who it was. It was.....”Him” the brute with a piece of cotton up his nose “Sorry to break up the heart breaking moment but I'm afraid you’re next” Hyo grew furious his veins popping out of his neck and head he ran towards the brute... Bang was all that could be hear. A loud thunder clap resonated the house it was the sound of a gun, Hyo looked at the brute smiling and the looked down his mouth open letting out small groans. A bullet had pierced the middle of his chest. Hyo touched the wound and looked at the blood before dropping to his knees. The brute walked up to Hyo and put the pistol to his head “No pipsqueak I'll kill you!” he said before another clap was heard. A bullet right through his head sent his body limp his life was over.
Something was wrong Hyo hadn't passed on to Soul Society, no he was stuck in the real world as a soul. Hyo had no clue what had been going on, but he took it as an opportunity to check on Rose and get payback for what the brute did to him. Hyo went back to Rose's house and watched closely, the monster had told her the news and showed her the gun as a trophy, he was sick there was no doubt about it. Rose broke down crying and left. She never came back, with just him living by himself Hyo took it upon himself to get his payback he was a spirit he could do that right? But with all his power he was useless he couldn't settle his grudge all he could do was watch until the numbskull died of old age. The brute quickly forgot about Hyo and had almost reverted back to a regular guy who learned his lesson for acting the way he did.
Hyo was going insane he tried everything to fulfill his goals of getting even with the brute and nothing seemed to be working. He had become obsessed with the grudge which slowly began to eat away at him. Months passed and nothing had changed for Hyo and by now he was completely erased from the brute’s memory. That's when Hyo’s soul chain finally corroded so much it finally broke, Hyo was taken by surprise he started to transform his chest began to rip open leaving nothing but a massive hole in it and a mask appeared on his face, and he had become tangible again. Hyo was now a hollow, but no normal mindless hollow he retained his intelligence and became a strong and evil hollow being more dangerous than any regular hunger.
Hyo had his conscious mind again but with a different feeling, he had an insatiable hunger, a hunger for human souls. Hyo thought to himself and finally came to a revelation of pure enjoyment, he would eat the soul of the ugly brute who had killed him and finally settle his grudge. Hyo walked past the orphanage and made it to the house. With one swoop of his arm he destroyed half the house, when he pulled out he brought his fist to his face, in his hand being squeezed to death was the brute. Hyo could feel him squirming shouting out help while the fear was painted clearly in his eyes, Hyo got joy out of seeing him in such a defenseless state, he was quite indulged in the evil feeling that felt like a healing wave. Hyo screamed a load roar and watched the brute grow deeper with fear, and then Hyo shoved him in his mouth and ate his soul.
Hyo finally content with killing the brute he began to feel more of a hunger never being satisfied with every meal he ate. Something changed in Hyo human souls no longer filled the void in his heart he was hungry for something else. Hyo found another hollow that had been eating a human soul and simply looked at him before tearing a chunk of the other hollows face off and eating it, the other hollow groaned in pain before Hyo savagely started devouring the former hollow. Finally something that tasted good, then the irresistible hunger came back, and he couldn't get rid of it. Hyo became a cannibal and started devouring Hollow after hollow until after one meal he began to change again he was now a Gillian.
There was something different about Hyo he felt more powerful that was for sure but that wasn't it. His mask was different he had a different mask then the others he had still kept control over his hollow mind which the other lacked which turned them into pure bred savages. This was a good thing Hyo felt and knew he could get stronger and he liked it, he would keep growing in power until he couldn't stop himself. This...this is what he was waiting for, for true power. Hyo had formerly discovered his new hollow abilities his favorite one being his Cero. His Cero was also different it had a goldish glow to it rather than red. This was proof he was different than the rest. His hunger controlled him yet again, as he began to eat hollows which soon didn't satisfy him at all, no his hunger had been so strong he began to eat other Gillian's. This was making him stronger by each meal he felt like he was getting closer to his goal. And then that's when it happened.
Hyo had successfully devoured enough souls to become an Adjuchas he become much smaller yet a whole lot stronger at that. Life in Hueco Mundo was a lot different than it was in the Human World and around the parts he now lived in there weren't that many Adjuchas and they weren't that friendly or had already created their own gangs. Hyo was unique in appearance he was half human appearance and half minimalistic appearance, he had a humanoid body while his head was that of a jackal which accompanied with claws and fangs.
One day Hyo had been eating a former Adjuchas when he was confronted by a large gang of bigger adjuncts who was led by a leader who was a bulky humanoid, “Well well what do we have here boys, looks like a pathetic piece of shit here and a free meal” Finishing his meal he tried walking away after wiping his mouth clean. Though they thought different they pushed him around as the leader appeared next to him and punched him in the face, “Come on get up or are you too much of a pipsqueak?” Hyo hated being bullied he had been bullied all his life and the word pipsqueak spiraled him into a rage, Hyo’s power quickly spurted and he quickly tore into each of the bulky Adjuchas henchmen quickly eating parts of them then he turned to face the leader “Good Day Sir, It's a nice day for a meal and I heard you’re the Main course” The bulky humanoid tried pleading his case, but Hyo wouldn't hear it he gouged the bulky hollow's limbs out eating them piece by piece.
From that day on something changed in Hyo he was no longer afraid and he no longer would be bullied his aspect of death was born he felt he would be the Pharaoh of Hueco Mundo like the Pharaoh's of Egypt, they were feared and respected and lead people under their rule. Hyo was now a cold blooded killer making death inevitable for the rest. He would feel that power which would quench his thirst and he would be revered throughout Hueco Mundo. Hyo went around feared amongst the other Adjuchas, some even came up to him and asked for their limbs to be eaten so the process of transformation would be stopped. Hyo admired his new power and quickly began to digest more hollows to reach his goal of ultimate power.
After eating countless number of Adjuchas Hyo finally began to go under the process of transforming into a Vasto Lorde, Vasto Lorde was the highest rank of the three categories of hollows and he was one of the only Vasto Lorde they were rare scarce and hard to find. Hyo had grown significantly smaller and had become the size of a human. Hyo could feel the power coursing through his veins and decided what he would do know since his hunger had been compromised. There was one Vasto Lorde he knew of who was publicized, that hollow was the God King of Hueco Mundo and the Undisputed Leader of Las Noches the city within Hueco Mundo. When he traveled to the land he had discovered the Cero Espada and why he was famous, there were a handful of elite Arrancar like he, and so instead of fighting the Cero Espada he did the smart thing and joined the Espada to buy time until he makes his move.
Personality:
Hyo can be closely described by the same attributes of his abilities; Cold, Callous, and apathetic. Hyo believes that everyone dies and that no one is truly invincible, death is an inevitability and the only means to death is Salvation for all the crimes and sin’s they’ve accomplished since then. Hyo is stoic and merciless able to dish out what he receives. Hyo seems anxious to get into battle, and is confident in his abilities. Hyo is one of the most calculating, cunning, and analytical member of the Espada. He is able to carefully look past his feelings and see the real situation at hand, which was demonstrated on more than one occasion. He is extremely perceptive, able to quickly recognize the patterns and mistakes that his opponents make, which gives him an edge. In battle, while his preference is to concoct strategies based on deduction of his opponents' fighting abilities and style, his natural battle instincts are also highly tuned. He is capable of slashing another person's head off in just an instant, relying only on impulse.
Hyo is a recluse and very desolate almost as if he was just a shell of man with a cold exterior. Hyo has no ethics, morals, or remorse for everything. Hyo is ice everything about him points back to his abilities, cold and shifting from destination to destination. However there is one otherside to Hyo and that is when his overbearing pessimism goes away and a soft version of him and his passion for his art comes out. When he is accompanied by his snowflakes Hyo appears to speak more and becomes a regular Arrancar showing emotions such as sarcasm and morbid humor. In this form he is rather arrogant and excited getting off on destruction and competition. Hyo has two faces like a coin, either one is a storm to reckon with.
Appearance:

Strengths: Powerful being, Expert at chakrams, powerful Reiatsu.
Weaknesses: Speed is subpar compared to most, His hierro doesn’t make him untouchable, physical strength is low.
Abilities:
Hyo has a vast majority of abilities as an Espada especially for his rank in the Espada and given the fact that he makes up for it for not having a Segunda Etapa. Hyo has the unique of ability of controlling Ice, snow, and the climate/water around him. Hyo understands the importance of making the battlefield work in your favor, thus covers the battle field in ice before he begins to fight, giving him an elemental advantage while at the same making it difficult for his opponent to maneuver around the frozen terrain. He accomplishes this feat by one of two means, either by freezing the vapor into ice or using the chakrams on his back.
His chakrams are very deadly and given such huge size for said reason, his chakrams allow him to channel all his cero’s through them plus increasing the width and power of them by double from the sheer size of the space inside them. His chakrams can be controlled like boomerangs and used without having to hold them, almost like a telepathic connection. When he throws his chakrams he can control the trajectory of the chakrams and they come back to him. The chakrams can also channel Reiatsu through them to create large concussive blasts but more importantly create the atmosphere he needs by creating an ongoing snowstorm.
But what Hyo is truly famous for is his very unique, complex, and beautiful snowflake techniques. Hyo regards his snowflakes as art or true beauty. His snowflakes are the only thing he enjoys that gives him a sort of positive outlook on life; they comfort him almost like an imaginary being. When the storm starts or if he just creates them out of pure Reiatsu, snowflakes of all size, shape, and design begin to fall. However they aren’t regular snowflakes these snowflakes are actually more of buzz saws that spin rapidly like a serrated blade. Hyo uses them flawlessly, the snowflakes are extreme dangerous and in number can even serrate even the hardest defenses. The snowflakes can do a multitude of things like create a vortex around his target or attack from all sides in a barrage. Anything he wills the snowflakes will follow, even as a base of defense.

Arrancar Rank: 2
Hollow Powers: Hyo gives off a natural icy presence leaving ice over land behind him; his touch is so cold it can start to freeze skin or any object he touches. His ice affinity gives him a harder exterior like glass skin, but ice.
Custom Cero/Bala:
Cero Divino: Hyo has an acute ability that allows him to change the form of his cero’s into anything he wishes. The prime example he uses is being able to coat his weapons or techniques with the icy blue aura of his cero’s. Each cero depends on which he uses.
Cero Tosho: This cero has an icy blue outer sheen while the inside is mostly necrotic black, almost a twin of Cero Oscuras. When the cero is coated by his chakrams or even just shot straight forward the cero is embedded with a special ability. When the target is hit by the cero the immediate area in which the person is hit succumbs to the effects of frostbite. However the full effects don’t hit the target, the frostbite occurs in degrees like burns. If the user is hit by the cero they experience frost nip and the upper layer of skin ices over gaining a sense of numbness and pain even reducing blood flow. As the opponent is exposed to more of the cero or the general cold 2nd degree frostbite will set in and the skin will begin to harden and blacken while forming blisters. Finally 3rd degree frost bite will set in, the muscles, tendons, blood vessels, and nerves all freeze. The skin is hard, feels waxy, and use of the area is lost temporarily, and in severe cases, permanently. Nerve damage in the area can result in a loss of feeling and if not treated parts will fall off. If the target is cut by his chakram coated by the cero 3rd degree frostbite is automatically applied.
Cero Congelar: The color of this cero is an icy blue, but instead of the necrotic black being on the inside, a clear white light mingles inside. The Cero is quite simple in construction, like any other cero it is quite powerful and incredibly fast. When the cero leaves the users hand and hits any surface no matter what object the immediate area of incident is completely frozen in a block of ice. So if the target got hit in the arm the entire arm would be engulfed in a large block of ice. Both weighing them down and making their limb null until they break the ice (no pun intended). The stronger the power of the cero the more ice is formed around the spot.
Cero Hielo Timepo: This Cero is odd yet stays true to the users powers. This cero is a simple blue cero that is projected like any other cero; however the effects are much more compelling. When the cero is fired and hits its intended target it literally freeze’s the opponent. The target doesn’t feel any sensation of cold or freeing, or any external or internal damage. The target is literally frozen in time where they are suspended like a statue only able to use their vision. A large surge of Reiatsu can figuratively break the ice.
Cero Granizo: An unorthodox cero, the cero is derived from the name it was give. Cero Hail, when the user shoots out the large icy cero it changes from a concentrated blast of energy into a solid form of pure Reiatsu. The Cero shifts into a large sharp piece of hailstone that travels at the speed of a cero that aims to impale, crush, and eradicate the area in which it collides with.
Stark’s life wasn’t very prosperous when he first grew up; before his story could be told we would have to first look at his parents. Stark’s father was a veteran of the Vietnam War that existed in the plane they lived in. His father had received a silver star for his actions in the war, but as most survivors of the Vietnam War their mind had become unstable and tainted. After he got out of the war he was a normal veteran and he kept the thoughts of what happened in the war locked up and tight under key. However when he moved back to the states he didn’t much like the Era he came back to especially with all the hippies petitioning against the veterans and labeling them “Baby Killers” and “Monsters”. These memories burrowed deep in his head and unleashed the horrid memories that became the catalyst for his distress. While he was in the war it was true, his company whenever they raided an enemy camp they would take young underage Vietnamese girls and have unprotected sex with them.
It was war what could they do? That war brought out the worst of them and how would one stay clean and pure in this type of atmosphere. Soldiers were unable to tell if civilians were actually civilians or were guerilla fighters. And so their company would have to kill children and women who sometimes were innocent and sometimes came at their throats. And after they destroyed and killed all the Vietnamese that got in their way they would burn down the homes with flames, and every now and then the homes would still contain people inside. Those screams were screams that would never clear his mind even with all the alcohol in the world. So the war continued and on a recon mission with his company they attempted to find the main camp of the Vietnamese, but the mission had gone severely wrong. One by one his squad mates would be picked off, it was night fall and the jungle was home of the Vietnamese monkeys.
What came next would stay with his father forever. Napalm, ‘Sticky Fire’, was the gel that burned on touch and would stick to flesh being unable to put the flames out. The blaring screams and the faces of fear from the Napalm sticking to his company illustrated clearly in his head as if he had photographic memory. A squad member falling in front of him covered in burn wounds paralyzed him against a tree almost binding him. There he was the only survivor of his company and became the prison of war for the Vietnamese. In the base the Vietnamese tortured him and beat him until he was bloodied and broken, water boarding, whipping, and shocking all were instruments of torture for the Vietnamese. It felt like years he was in that wooden chair bound by iron bracers with no food and little water. And the only bathroom he had was a bucket on the floor.
Fading from life his vision became tunneled only a very fogged outer layer covered his eyes and just as his life fell into the grasp of decay an arm reached out an pulled him back to reality. The base had been captured by the U.S. and they had saved him from dying in the hell hole. After begin treated in a friendly hospital he was discharged from the military and awarded the Silver Star. He had only been a POW for no less than a week. And that’s when he had set foot on American turf again, and there he met a wonderful brunette that had seemed to make it all better. And after 4 years they had gotten married and together birthed a kid named Stark. However after a few months of being born Stark felt very ill as an infant and began to lose his senses. Stark became a deaf and blind child; was this retribution from god for what he had done in the war? He didn’t deserve this and rapidly Stark’s father turned to drinking from his belief in god’s vengeance.
Stark on the other hand had to learn to write and speak without seeing or hearing, only being able to use brail as a method of learning. They say that when someone loses one of their five senses the others grow exponentially. Well Stark had lost 2 of his sense and only had three remaining and so double went for him as his taste, touch, and smelling sense improved. Soon Stark was able to smell different odors and individualize them until he had the tracking of a blood hound. Stark became infatuated with the Wolf seeing as they were hunters and relied on instinct and their acute tracking abilities by the use of their noses. And while he trained his other three senses to become more advanced his sight strengthened to as he was able to ‘see’ what was going on around him being able to see everything around him in a shade of blue, but only being able to make out shapes and changes in light. While he learned to live with his ‘disabilities’ his father drank more and more reliving his times at war and becoming violent against stark and his mother.
Stark got used to his father’s routine especially now that he could smell the scent of alcohol as it was uncapped. His feeling of touch also increased the pain he received from getting beat by his father. One day on Starks birthday his mother decided to throw him a party and make him a cake with tons of presents that would help him with his senses. However his father couldn’t bear to live with his son plagued by his sins. In a complete drunk stupor unable to control himself he stumbled back to his house in the middle of the night while Stark and his mother were sleeping. Carefully walking inside Stark turned on his gas stove until the house was filled with gas. Walking upstairs he looked at his wife and child sleeping pleasantly and with a tear rolling down his face he whispered ”I’m sorry.” and with a light of a match the house was engulfed in flames exploding violently. The flames were like a warm blanket to his father, the same reminiscent flames that took the lives of his company, and for the first time in a long time his father was happy.
And the next day Stark woke up in a cold sweat, but something changed. He was able to see and hear perfectly, but how? Was he in heaven? No heaven didn’t have such commodities, arising from a hay made bed he exited the small house he was sleeping in and exited. Asking all over and filled with happiness about being able to see and hear he frolicked about until he figured out where he was. Stark discovered that he was an orphan that lived in district 80 of his new home known as Rukongai. District 80 was the poorest and crime infested. Stark discovered that he was simply a soul after the ritual known as Konso. And so Stark went back to his slum of a house and continued to teach himself from the memory of his mom, from which time to time made his eyes create something he’s never seen before, tears. And as he aged into adulthood he became stronger and so did his senses, until the crime infested slum came to his door step.
A ruthless gang had approached Stark angry that he had gone under the radar and that they had run the slums and every month demanded payment from their residency. And Stark had gone years without paying a single dime. Unfortunately Stark had no money and he was trapped, in turn for his poverty they would break every bone in his body until it made up for the years. But something changed that day in Stark, his fear disappeared all at once and something new filled inside of him. It was the power of the wolf, the sheer terror the howl of one brought in the night. It was Starks turn to become the predator instead of the pray. He was a pup when his father used to beat him, but now with his perfect 5 sense and his age he matured into a full on alpha wolf. And with a powerful howl a contracted beam of energy erupted from his hands and obliterated the henchmen in front of him. Surprisingly enough a scout for the Gotei 13 had seen Stark and his Reiryoku and Reishi. He immediately brought him to the academy to begin his training.
And since then Stark had passed the entrance exam and became a full time Shinigami attending all his classes and rising in rank. Now Stark resides as the 7th seat of the 5th division with the ability to call upon his Zanpakuto’s name and unleash Shikai. Stark continues to train until he reaches his desired rank of Captain.
Personality:
Stark is almost always completely straightforward and his simple and clear demeanor bears no shadow to his past life. He has no human feelings, such as the desire to make plans or having concern for the weak. His soul mostly wild and is only concerned with survival.
Stark has the deep trust of his comrades and regardless of the danger he faces enemies on the frontlines of battle in order to protect the pack! He will willingly give his life for the pack. Stark tries to protect his comrades at all times. He will punish anyone that hurts his pack, regardless of who they are. However powerful an enemy may be, he will swear revenge, body and soul. With his pride as a Wolf Shingami, his conviction is unwavering.
Stark rarely makes battle plans. His actions are basically animalistic hit-or-miss. But he sometimes exhibits surprising strategies with his naturally sharp instincts. As long has he likes something he is not concerned with the feeling of others. He simply proceeds in one direction. Stark is driven by a fierce, persistent determination to win and his guts in battle have proved to let him get a favorable result. Even if seriously wounded, the moment he detects the presence of those he most protect at all costs he would completely forget the pain. The overflow of his emotions went beyond his body's limits.
Appearance:
Strengths: Zanjutsu
Weaknesses: Jack of all trades apart from Zanjutsu
His air of aloofness and indifference is a product of dignity that only one of such rare Spirit power may possess. Taishō is more or less emotionless, only anger, annoyance, and dissatisfaction showing on his face. Because both his heart and body are so strong, he had no desire whatsoever for Captain Rank. He had absolute confidence in his power. In battle he judges his enemy's power level and attacks with the minimum power necessary. He dealt with his enemies after determining their power. Once he had realized their weak point, their attacks were futile.
Taishō felt nothing for others, sneering and dismissing humane feelings. Anyone in his way is an enemy whom he will exterminate without hesitation. He does not hold back his power, even against women. He rationalizes that all his prey is the same and defeats them accordingly. For one with such pride in his power, cooperation is proof of weakness and being alone is a condition for the strong. Once he judges someone as an obstacle, he is quick to kill without hesitation.
Taishō has a very inquiring mind when there is something he cares about, but at the same time, he had almost no tenacity of purpose. If he becomes interested into something else, he will arbitrarily turn his back on what he's doing, even during battle. He is not greedy and is quick to quit doing something. Just like his fighting style, he is quick to make decisions and act on then immediately.

Appearance: (See Character Appearance)
Abilities:
Spoiler
The abilities of Stark’s Shikai are rather simple but exquisite. Stark’s weapon appears to contain runs all along the blade of the sword. Each of these runes stand for a verse that pertains to different abilities it can create. In his Shikai he is only able to use complementary runes that serve as a buff to him and his allies rather than inflict damage. However these buffs so to say can improve his fighting abilities, the runes themselves can’t inflict damage, but he sure can. Stark’s Shikai contains 7 basic runes in his sword.
Anblick: Being target by this rune makes the targets vision blurred and their ability to see 20/20 lower. This sight improves Starks perception of time and allows him to react faster according to his sight.
Klingen: This rune robs the target of their hearing strength, making most noise inaudible, and making it so things would only be heard as if the target was underwater. Meanwhile Stark’s hearing improves making him coherent of sneak attacks.
Berühren: This rune severs the target ability to feel touch, meaning that the nerves in their hands would be unable to send information to the brain. Cold and hot wouldn’t exist and the ability to feel pain in their body would be completely gone. Stark is able to feel things more clearly, but proving to be a more adverse effect than a benefit.
Geschmack: This rune is quite different. Using the targets sense of taste the rune does two things, the first is using Synesthesia to make it so the target can taste colors, sound, and light. It also makes it so the target’s body is coated with taste buds and is able to taste everything it comes into contact with.
Geruch: Leaving the last sense, smell, this rune obviously enough robs the target of their ability to perceive smell. This can be used to the user’s advantage if he is fighting with a partner that uses deadly gases with scents. In turn the user gains a ‘gas mask’ sort of power which allows them to filter deadly gases except for oxygen into their lungs.
Rules:
The runes don’t stack.
They overwrite each other if two are applied.
The User always suffers from an adverse effect e.g making him susceptible to sound with heightened hearing etc…
The effects last 5 posts each.

Sagara, Hajime - The Surgeon of Death

Name: Sagara Hajime Alias/Nickname/s: Surgeon of Death Gender: Male True Age: 2459 Appearance Age: ?? Race: Shinigami Rank: Elite Captain Division: 4th
History:
Spoiler
And so begins the story of how Sagara came to be. Before Sagara was born his parents had been citizen of a small city in japan that mostly no one knew of since it was such a small city. The city was relatively lively since everyone knew each other on a first and last name basis from the small population, the city wasn’t known for much apart from its lively economy, which was the only thing that kept the city afloat beyond the control of the government. Now Sagara's parents had both worked with the economy and had both grown to be very wealthy, their names were weighted heavy in the city for their outstanding funds. At the time they didn't know either one existed since they worked in two different types of work. His father being in charge of imports and exports, while his mother was in charge of financing the revenue and expenses of each major company. With such jobs that needed the utmost dedication and most of their time, it seemed the two didn't have time to burden themselves by going out and having friends. Their jobs were to demanding that the little time they had off they had spent sleeping preparing their bodies for the next day.
Well, fortunately for them they had both moved to Karakura Town for separate actions by their companies and they became familiar with Karakura Town and its bustling erratic movement, it seemed like the city always had something important to do. During a festival in Karakura Town everyone that was anyone was invited since it took up the streets and bar’s everywhere became packed along with restaurants. Awkwardly enough Sagara's parents had met at one of these bars in the busy Karakura Town streets, they had gone with separate friends, but at the end of the night had ended up leaving together. What drew them together were each other’s personal characteristics. His dad had serene silver eyes that captured the light in a way it captivated people who looked into them. And his mother had lush flawless skin with beautiful auburn hair and a smile you couldn't say no to. Both had been passing glares to each other the whole night until his father finally mustered up the courage to have finally asked her on a date.
The two kicked it off that night they painted the city red, celebrating, eating, and sharing laughs with one another. It was almost too good to be true, how in just one night they could find such a paradise that people only dreamed about. Now, fast forwarding a couple of years, the two finally settled down after his father asking her to move in with him, even though it wasn't the big question his mother had hoped for (marriage) she was still glad that they had took their relationship one step closer to that of marriage. They still had been working for the businesses they had started off as, but now they had been with their companies so long they gained benefits that would cover their own expenses and medical needs. By now Sagara's father popped the big question asking his mother to be with him forever. In tears she smiled and said yes making it the happiest days in both of their lives. The wedding had been gorgeous and over the top since they had the money to spend on it. Friends and family from all over the country came to see the two wed. Unfortunately during the time of the wedding a massive earthquake hit the surrounding area and unknowingly his two parents had consumed the nameless worm.
By now they had saved enough money they could consider early retirement, but his mother had other plans. Those plans later turned into young Sagara being born, yes finally after an odd number of years he was born into the Expanding world, thus his own story beings. Both of his parents had retired from their job yet they lived the luxurious life. Together they raised Sagara into a smart and caring little boy, though he wasn't the spoiled kind. Growing up was easy for Sagara as he was taught by his parents at a young age. They had taught him the basics that every child should and then they began giving him books to read without the pictures.
Years passed and now Sagara was able to speak fluently with great vocabulary and had excellent grammar he was about 11. For the next 10 years of his life he would begin to learn all there was to be known about science and medical studies. His parents had aged and now they were in there forties yet still lively. Sagara had took an interest in science and developed a knack for it, studying for hours upon hours when he got home, proud to present to his parents of what he learned in school that day. It was true his mind was more developed then the kids his age, but some say it was good genes, others called it good parenting, and most people just said he was a genius. They all took each compliment willingly and were embarrassed at how popular Sagara had gotten over the years. Sagara on his own was happy with his childhood and life he didn't have needs for games or being a ninja he wanted to just have more knowledge so he could carry on his family name and inherit his first son rights as successor to the family fortune.
Two years passed and now Sagara was 13 and had been overcome with an obsession with the human anatomy and what fragile beings humans were. This obsession became a permanent habit; instead of studying anything else he became infatuated with learning all about the human genome. The human body seemed complex, but at the same time it was so weak, it was unable to do such enormous feas as the animal kingdom could accomplish like a lizard’s regeneration or a cheetah’s speed. Even the human body’s immune system was feeble at best compared to a chimpanzee. And so Sagara spent all his time and energy into the research of the human anatomy until he mastered its knowledge. By now Sagara had finally begun to travel to public school instead of being taught at home since his parents wanted him to learn the meaning of having companions. During his school year the teacher’s and administrator had been playing around the idea of going on an out of school field trip. They would take a handful of students and take them out to camp in the countryside by the mountains so they could explore nature and the caves that had been made long before the buildings and steel that made Karakura Town. Sagara was excited to go and his parents gave him the permission to go on the trip with the rest of his classmates and his friends.
It seemed as though everything was going according to plan. The school was closed for the week, they had enough supplies to last them through the week, and the kids were filled with adventure. They took a bus out of the city to a desolate land where no skyscrapers or buildings were made and the weather was quite chilly. From the bus they began to hike led by the Administrator who had a map of the area around him. And simple enough there was a trail that led the through a forest and higher up into the mountains. Laughing and fun could be heard behind the Administrator as the teachers talked to the students and the students mingled with each other, but something began to puzzle the Administrator, he was lost. A quick glance, a turn of the map, a squint, he was indeed lost and his pride prevented him from asking for help since he arranged the entire thing.
Ignoring the fact he was lost he decided to take control of the expedition and follow his sense of direction and where he was headed originally. Everyone else was completely unaware of where they were going and when they asked the administrator if he knew where they were headed, he always gave a weary smile, and said yes. But aspirations began to grow shallow since they hadn’t made it to their camp and the sun began to set. Furthermore as he tried to calm them the kids grew weary as well and began to grow hungry and tired. Then things went from bad to worse when the sky began to fog up with dark grey clouds and the familiar sound of thunder struck the air. Rain began to downpour unto the group and the rest of the forest. Scared now they all began to panic before the administrator directed them to an open cave where they could rest in.
They rushed to the cave and poured in one by one until they were in a mass huddle. Wet, Scared, and tired they hung onto the teachers and waited out the storm. The administrator had begun to whisper to the other teachers telling them that indeed they were lost. Chattering filled the cave and despair steadily rose in each of the teachers while the administrator felt like a recluse. The thunder became louder and the lightning became more reoccurring until it rang just outside of the cave. And then finally the lightning struck at the cave and the rock and sediment above the cave crumbled and incased the opening into a rock prison. The children screamed and cried themselves to sleep until the next morning, very few streams of light poked through the creases in the rock. Time after time the teachers tried to break through the prison, but the more they tried the more rocks covered the entrance. Weeks dragged on without any contact to the outside world and it felt like no one was going to look for them now.
Slowly but surely they all began to lose their willpower, the food and supplies they had begun to shrink in size and the teachers began to sacrifice their portions to the kids so they could survive instead of going to sleep hungry. However as the supplies shrank in size the adults began to grow weak and had befallen into sickness from not eating and burning to much energy. Being the oldest and most knowledgeable on the human body and medicine Sagara looked after their supervisors, with limited supplies he tried the best he could to keep them alive, but was defeated when they had all died one by one; either from insanity or hunger and dehydration. Sagara never felt so alone and discarded, it was only him and the other children now and the isolation had begun to drive them mad.
Sagara and the rest of them had begun to lose their humanity and became animalistic, being the only one who kept his will, Sagara cut himself off from the rest of the boys and separated him from the rest. Yet the hunger kept swinging at him, his hope was quickly diminished when no one from the town had gone to retrieve them, maybe they would never come to get them, and how would they know where the cave was now that it was covered in rocks. That night Sagara had begun to fall asleep, he hadn't slept in days in fear something would happen to him, or he would miss his chance at rescue, little did he know he was making a big mistake. When he fell asleep the other kids formed around him, targeting Sagara because he was alone and weak. Crazed, starving for food, the children pounced on Sagara and held him down. Sagara immediately woke up in a panic, his eyes wide open as the fear and horror illuminated his eyes.
Sagara tugged and pulled yet no avail, he had tried screaming, but that wasn't working either. All Sagara could do was cry and hope they would stop, that's when he felt the teeth of one of his fellow classmates sink into his skin. The children grew barbaric and ravenous chomping away at his skin and muscle. Sagara tugged and pulled the pain surged through him he felt like he was dying slowly and there was no way out, he would soon pass out from blood loss, thinking to himself this was the last moments of his life, he then tugged for freedom trying to think of a solution out. He was running out of time the kids had already gotten to the bone which they began to break, they had been wanting the marrow from inside his bones, they had been starved for weeks and this was their first chance at something to eat, they were almost in a ritualistic manner devouring his arm and the rest of his body, with his blood riddled over their faces. Sagara thought fast realizing he should do just the same; Sagara chomped down on the hand that held his mouth exerting all the pressure he could. The boy holding him let go, now was his chance.
Sagara screamed, it was a blood curdling high pitched scream, he screamed so loud he nearly exhausted his oxygen supply. Hopefully his efforts wouldn't be in vain. Sagara had passed out from blood loss his tears the only thing covering his body. Oddly enough Sagara awoke the next day alive? Yes he was alive, but he was no longer in the cave. He had woken up in a rather strange lab he had never seen before. Sagara had shot straight up thinking he was in a nightmare, he touched his face, but there was something different his touch was cold. When Segara stretched out his arms he saw that both of his arms were riddled with stiches, up and down, scattered everywhere. His arms were covered in sitches all around and when he panicked he threw the blanket he had been covered with to the side, only to reveal his legs, feet, and upper torso were just engulfed in stiches. Almost on instinct Sagara threw his hands to his face and felt nothing, his sense of touch had been eliminated from the multitude of bites he suffered, his nerves were to damage to repair so they died and he lost one of his five natural senses. As he began to cry he rose up feeling extremely weak as he looked into the reflection of an iron fridge and saw his face has been scarred with stiches too.
Sagara yelled in anger and tragedy as he knocked over all the beakers and glass jars that were set on top of the desk. When suddenly his savior had rushed in and held Sagara, his name was Saito. After he had calmed down, Saito began to explain what happened to Sagara after he passed out. In a surprising turn of events, Saito a surgeon and alchemist had heard the savage noises and yells for help from the cave. When he ran over to investigate he destroyed the cave wall with an alchemic concoction and entered while he euthanize the other boys whose souls had been too far gone to save. Using some traditional medicine Saito kept Sagara alive just enough so he could operate him in his private lab where he awoke in. But why was he near the cave? Saito acknowledged his curiosity and confessed the he was an Alchemist looking for rare ingredients that only lived in the natural areas outside the town. Alchemy was considered magic in their times for it was an alternative to medicine and rumored to have the power to rival god, even so far as to say that alchemy can turn metals into gold. Sagara, still confused, soon grew attached to Saito, not only because he saved his life, but because of his passion for power and knowledge.
And so Sagara became Saito’s disciple and soon Sagara began to learn information he never knew existed, he learned new things about the human body and how to treat it better than most physicians could. And he grew especially excited when the taboo art of alchemy was explained to him, for the next few years Sagara would work his way to perfecting the art until he was able to master it that was until today. While Saito had gone out to find ingredients Sagara had created a secret side project hidden from Saito that was even taboo for him. The dangerous art of human modifications, Sagara read of heinous and destructive alchemy that would allow him to bend fire at will or allow him the strength of a bear and the regenerative properties of a starfish. But what he wanted was immortality and rebirth so his scarred body would be reborn into an immortal one. Having gathered the required materials Sagara began the ritual as he carefully followed the instructions, but what he didn’t know was this magic was never perfected. His avarice is what would be the means to an end, the alchemic sequence began, but what started out flawlessly ended horribly. The sequence began to go array and Sagara entered a stage of denial, but it was too late. The sequence had overreacted and the entire process had sparked an explosion with the chemicals.
The explosion erupted in front of Sagara’s face as the flames engulfed his body and consumed the lba round him creating several more explosions from the materials that were in the lab. And in a matter of minutes the entire lab had exploded leaving nothing but remnants of its past behind. When Saito had arrived it was already too late. And so in a fiery death Sagara laughed manically on his way to the other side. Arriving in Rukongai was his first experience being in the world of reishi and other natural phenomenon that took place in the shinigami world. Sagara immediately took this as a challenge and began to build his vault of knowledge of all that existed in this new world. However when he first arrived his body still bored the army of stiches on his body, but now his body was charcoal black from the burns that he inflicted upon himself. The burns seemed to never heal and the heat stayed with him as well, publically he was an atrocious monster so Sagara decided to cover up his mistakes and wrapped himself in a multitude of gauze and bandages until he became comfortable with his look. From then on Sagara built his knowledge until he joined the Gotei 13 as the 4th Divison Captain.
There Sagara fused his prior medical knowledge and alchemy with that of the new world with Reiatsu and Kido at his disposal. From then on Sagara became one of the oldest Shingami in the Gotei 13, second to the Captain Commander. Sagara is by far the most knowledgeable on health related matters in all of Soul Society. He is known to be highly proficient in conventional healing techniques as well as herbal healing. He also has the ability to heal more than just Shinigami, since he was once human too. His Kido has also become rather advanced in the art of spiritual energy and has created a battalion of his own Kido. His knowledge and mastery of healing Kidō are unrivaled within Soul Society. Sagara is well-versed in a variety of Kidō, able to easily use high-level Hadō and Bakudō spells without incantation. And now Sagara the crazy motherfucker that he is remains one of Soul Society’s most intellectual and dangerous beings.
Personality:
Spoiler
Sagara has no compassion or mercy for his enemies, though he never shows much regard for human life, at some points even letting on that he likes to kill and experiment whether or not his enemy is alive or not. He is rather morbid and arrogant. Nevertheless, none of these character flaws prevent him from being a superb investigator and fighter. He believes in peace and order, even in the society created by his former enemies. Anyone he considers to be corrupt or despotic, he targets for elimination. He expects those involved in the soul society army to carry out their duties without letting their personal feelings interfere. Sagara is calm and collected, not getting rattled by his opponents. He is quiet and contempt, as he does not speak often, but he does speak to everyone with a natural apathy as he gives everyone a state of neutrality until he better knows the person, he barely uses honorifics and when faced with advising people he grows a small vendetta. He noticeably dislikes opponents who are cowardly, instead preferring opponents who are brave enough to face him. He also seems to dislike opponents who are weaker than him, preferring to face opponents who possess either the same level of skill as him or are a bit stronger than him.
Sagara comes off as being very dark. Sagara claims to enjoy the relationship between victim and murderer, stating that before the murderer kills their victim the two share a level of intimacy which is too deep for words. He also views love as a sadomasochistic relationship, believing that lovers care deeply for each other and yet hurt each other whenever they are together. He rarely displays emotion, never seeming angry or sad, but when Sagara enters his Bankai Sagara seems to disregard his old personality and becomes swallowed by a blood thirsty unbalanced maniacal creature that has nothing but the determination for death. Other than that Sagara displays very high intelligence, in some ways giving him something of an evil genius persona and personifies the stereotype of the mad scientist. TO sum it all up Sagara is a coldblooded ruthless scientist.

Koike Sinko
''Huh...I said : NO..I don't want to participate in a play, Arthur..NO..GOD DANGIT, NO...Alright alright, one bloody time and that is it..'' General
Spoiler
Name:
Koike Sinko Alias/Nickname:
Ko ( only Arthur is for now allowed to say Ko against Koike) Gender:
Male Appearance Age:
21 Appearance:
Spoiler
Race:
Vizard Rank:
Novice Medium Theme song
Spoiler
Personality
Koike is to put it short quite a person that doesn't like to wait or wants to spent time on things he doesn't think that really matter or aren't fun. Often people think he is rude or that he doesn't care about the feelings of other people because he says what he thinks most of the time. This also made some people think Koike isn't smart because he says how he thinks about things, thinking he can't keep a secret or doesn't think before he says something.
It's quite the opposite if you know Koike well enough. Koike is very loyal to his friends and those who he respect and though he is still rude to most, he wants to be very honest with them and will think about what is best to say in some situations, so he won't really hurt the feelings of somebody who he really likes/respects if there is no reason for it.
People that know Koike very well also know that he is in fact very shy and very often question himself if he is really something worth. This can be the case with things like if people really like him or if he can be really of any help. You can thus say that the usual attitude of Koike is just a play to hide his true self from others.
In combat Koike can be quite..Chaotic. He never listens to most people, unless they have proven their worth to Koike. Those who however don't have proven it and try to order him around, should be very wary. It has been quite usual that Koike turns on those people and even attacked them, not very seriously, while there was a enemy nearby. The reason for why Koike does that is because he doesn't wanted to be ordered around by somebody who thinks they can just order anybody around. He has a great dislike for such figures and rather see them gone then fighting with him.
But on the other hand, Koike has shown in the past that he is a very caring person that is even willing to put himself in harms way, so other people are spared/safe from a attack.
Last but not least, Koike hates and really hates to be called cute. Why? Nobody knows really why, but he often punches the person who say he is cute in the face, except for women because he thinks its quite dishonorable to punch a woman in the face.
History :
Koike has always been searching for a way to become stronger, so he could prove himself that he was somebody great. However, by simple training and such, he wanted to find out a fast way and did several experiments of how he could gain power in a short time. However, his last one went horribly wrong as it started a Hollowifaction process. Koike knocked out by it and when he woke up, he woke up in his Inner world, seeing a ugly British gentleman.
First Koike tried to subdue it, but failed each time as the Hollow knew more about Koike's abilities then Koike knew. However, the Hollowifaction process was noted and thus Koike was banned from Soul Society.
After that he had been traveling all over Earth and often trained, though he never could subdue his Inner Hollow. Because of his contacts, he was suddenly contacted by one of them and asked if he could help him with his son. Koike agreed and at first didn't really cared for the boy, which had then name of Arthur and even was annoyed by him, because he was so fragile. However, Koike found out that the boy was special, seeing he could see spirits and also had noticed that Koike wasn't a normal human.
Now trying to stay in one place and becoming stronger, Koike has vowed to himself that he will be there to make sure Arthur won't get hurt...Though he sometimes gets crazy when Arthur wants to have Koike participate in a play.
Normally, Koike would simply disappear or making sure Arthur wouldn't be able to reveal anything, but he stayed and even worse : became best friends with Arthur. Though it may sounds like he doesn't like it, Koike really cares for Arthur and often is worried about his friend, still thinking he is the same fragile being.
Fighting Style:
To describe it with words : Aggresive, energetic, evasive and fast.
Koike has a aggressive fighting style. He tries to come close by and starts to attack without wavering, even if his foe wants to surrender. He tries to keep up high speed to make sure his foe hasn't much time to react to his attacks and tries to dodge more then to block, so he can counter-attack fast.
Zanpakuto and Hollow
Spoiler
Zanpakuto Name:
Kaminari ( Thunder) Zanpakuto Spirit Personality:
Unlike Koike, Donder is more polite and often calm. He advise Koike often in many things, even when Koike is getting worked up and Donder thinks its better for Koike to calm down. He is always friendly even when Koike isn't. Zanpakuto Spirit Appearance:
Spoiler
Sealed Zanpakuto:
Spoiler
Basic Power:
Lightning nature kind of attacks/power.
_______________________
Shikai special ability :Bliksem Hint (Lightning Hint)
Koike is able to put up a kind of cloak on him. The cloak is made of Koike's reiryoku/spiritual power and though if somebody throws a quick look at Koike, there is nothing to be seen. Only if somebody is paying attention then they can see little sparks of Lightning appearing sometimes around Koike if he has this ability active.
Bliksem Hint can enable Koike to paralyze a foe if the foe comes too close and can't resist the Lightning that surrounds Koike and his weapon. It can also effect Koike, making him feel numb, so he can't feel any wounds that he has received during a fight.
There is however a great penalty for using this ability. Once this ability active, Koike can't activate his Resurreccion form(not that he gained it yet) straight ahead. First he needs to deactivate Bliksem Hint and then wait for a little time ( waiting time is 2 posts) before he can either activate Bliksem Hint again or activate his Resurreccion form . Foes that know this weakness can exploit it by forcing Koike to activate the ability and then try to either defeat him while he has Bliksem Hint active or try to defeat him while he is waiting till he can active his Resurreccion form.
Flexibility of the blade :
Koike can manipulate the blade of the scythe to a certain degree, so it can be more of use in some situations. It can change in any moment if the blade can move freely.
But Koike can't make the blade expand any further or make any sharper then it is.
________________ Name :
Hollow Koike but calls himself : Sir Koike the Gentleman. Appearance :
Spoiler
(Of course he doesn't look nice and handsome! Appearance doesn't count, but what is inside counts...That and the hat of course.)
Hollow Personality:
Though he is a Hollow, you wouldn't except him to be one if it weren't for the looks. His attitude is the opposite of Koike and Hollow Koike is very different from your generic Hollow characters.
Hollow Koike is a real sir. He doesn't approve fighting, but likes to talk about art, music and other fun things. His dislike for battle makes it even harder to believe he is a Hollow at all and also because he doesn't want to take over Koike. The only close thing that you can say that is maybe wicked is that he has the patience to not get mad with Koike trying to subdue him and thus making his Hollow powers his own.
No no no, Hollow Koike is just a nice and cheerful person that likes to spend his time reading or even painting the beautiful landscape of the Inner World of Koike. Though he is quite powerful and possess some real brute power, he says that a real gentleman never lets power rule over him, but instead drinking tea and talking about art is a better way to solve things.

Duration: 10 seconds
Resurreccion & Command:
Spoiler
Resurreccion & Command: ''Roar like the Thunder! Kamira!''
Appearance:
Koike :
Spoiler
His weapon :
Spoiler
Abilities:
Enhanced Durability:
In his Resurreccion form, Koike even gains more durability. He won't likely flinch from average attacks and is able to fend of most average attacks. He is even able to fend of strikes of blades with focusing spiritual energy in his arms.
Enhanced Strength
The Resurreccion form of Koike let him gain more control of his spiritual force, thus also enabling him to focus some in his hand to hand fight, making his attacks having more impact. The added bonus isn't that great that it is able to break bones, but will likely punch somebody of his feet when he/she isn't paying attention.
Denkouissen ( Flash of Lightning )
Koike can throw his sword which will go at a very high speed in a straight line. Because his sword is engulfed with Lightning, it can paralyze and strike through hard objects and person. It can be very deadly once a foe has been pinnend down.
But that isn't the true ability of Lightning Flash. The true ability is that Koike can teleport himself to where his sword is. He can use it in such manner to suprise opponents that don't know the ability or Koike use it to evade attacks. Even while it gives Koike some good advantage over some enemies, he is not fond of using the ability and some even claim he is affraid of using it.
The drawback of the ability is that Ryo must throw his sword, wich goes in a straight line to where Ryo throws it and that once a smart opponent knows how it works, the suprise advantage isn't that big anymore. Also because of the speed by wich Ryo can teleport to his sword, wich is done in almost a split second, Koike can be easily suprised if a enemy attacks him just when he has just teleported and doesn't know that somebody had been waiting for him. An other disadvantage to his ability is when his enemy managed to let the blade fly towards somewhere else, making Koike confused when he performs the Lighting Flash ability.
Leaking Reiatsu
With Koike in his Resurreccion form, he can't hide himself as his Reiatsu starts to grow in amount and shows the nature of his form, that of a Hollow. While Koike himself doesn't suffer from this, his allies can be surprised or if they can't withstand the huge amount of Reiatsu, then Koike can end up with paralyzing them.
Lightning Contact
Due his leaking Reiatsu, Koike shouldn't lose focus cause else he might end up with releasing Lightning that may shoot and expand in random ways. This can cause harm and damage by his allies if they don't see it coming or are too concentrated on their own trouble.
Strained Flash
While the teleporation can grant Koike a huge advantage in fights, it is something he seems not to be keen on. It doesn't have much disadvantages, but the fact that he must know where the sword ends or is, makes it kind of a unwritten rule that Koike needs sight of his sword, cause else he is going to jump in the dark. Something he doesn't want to risk when he is fighting against a powerful enemy.
Also, until he has masters his Resurreccion Form to a high degree, he is only able to teleport himself to his sword and nothing/nobody else.
On the edge
Koike only enters his Resurreccion form when he thinks he needs to go all out or when somebody is angering to the max. While he becomes calmer, he is still on the edge to snap and make it more likely to even turn on his allies when they start to annoy Koike. It can also inflict his cunning and tactics as he is more controlled by his emotions then he is normally. Though even though it is rare he cares for the words of his enemies, it is clear that he can loose control and will proceed to rush and attack his target.
That's his awesome, nice and really sweet way of saying. You CANNOT
