[OOC] Bleach: The Silent Legacy (Page 6)

Sure, I guess I'll use this opportunity to post my WIP CS for the Squad 1 lieutenant.

- Name -
Taro Kaeda

- Appearance -

- Age -
247

- Race -
Shinigami

- Rank -
Lieutenant of Squad 1

- Spiritual Pressure Color -
Deep blue

- Personality -
Taro is noble and physically overbearing. He is not pragmatic, but is a person who lets history run its course and acts according to his impulses. While he is wild and somewhat inconsiderate to others, his ambition inspires them and ultimately results in their happiness. He is always jovial, values friendship highly, and he regards the bond with all of his squad members and fellow shinigami as important. Similarly he admires people who treat friendship with sincerity and is compassionate to those with whom he bonds.
He is not overly cruel as would be expected from a tyranical personality, but tries instead to keep bloodshed to a minimum despite his love for battles and destruction. He is fine with not actually winning the battle outright as he prefers to conquer his enemies by winning without killing and controlling without humiliating them. To him, a selfless leader who isolates himself from his friends to die for ideals is nothing but a fool, which is worse than a tyrant. He is also in opinion that a leader should be vibrant, a figure who is inspiring and leading his people, instead of being a distant loner who concerns himself only with protecting and saving his squad members. Ultimately, he would grieve and weep over his losses and mistakes, but he would stay true to himself and never regret decisions made as a Lieutenant.

- History -

- Shinigami Skills -
Incredibly strong
Kido practitioner
Hakuda veteran

- Zanpakuto -
Goriate (Goliath), Taro Zanpakuto is as always a regular Katatna in it's sealed state. The wrapping along its tang is a deep royal blue whilst the Zanpakuto guard is unique in the way that it is a 3D sphere or ball.

The spirit of Goriate is literally a giant. A tall mountain of a man that dwarfs Taro but is so lazy and stupid he dislikes to talk with his inner spirit. Taro is used to the idea of kicking it into shape but when Goriate gets angry, it's best to stay out of it's way. Taro is often asked to explain why his Zanpakuto in it's Shikai state adopts the form of two hammers, he tells them that Goriate is so large he can't possibly fit into one of them.

- Shikai -
Kiretsu, Goriate
(Crack, Goliath)

Sheathing his Zanpakuto Taro adopts a low and strong stance before stamping his foot on the ground which causes a cloud of dust to consume him. A few seconds pass before the dust settles and Taro is revealed holding not one but two single handed hammers (Smaller than in the picture). His attacks become incredibly hard hitting as you would expect with such blunt force weapons
Once released Goriate is capable of earth manipulation, hitting the floor or thick walls with either hammer Taro can force rocks and boulders to shoot out for him to hit at his opponents. He is also capable of striking the ground and forcing constructs out of the earth such as pillars or spikes making it very treacherous for any opponents.Taro is known to implement three main techniques, but is constantly kicking Goriate into giving up his other hidden techniques.

To begin Taro is often seen standing behind a large boulder which he will hit with extreme force, instantly cracking and splintering the boulder this attack sends a wave of rock shards in any given direction. Generally only used at short range this attack is hard to dodge with it's wide spread difficult to predict, it's damage output is also not to be underestimated as the sharp rocks can easily cut and dent almost any objects.

Secondly, by hitting the floor with both hammers simultaneously, Taro sends ripples of energy to disturb the earth in any desired location within his Reiatsu's range. A couple of seconds later the targeted portion of earth will almost completely be crushed and turned into fine sand, dropping whomever stands there into a pit. Often using this to trap his opponents it is similar to a quicksand trap.

The final technique and definitely the most powerful one Goriate possesses in it's Shikai state is also the most difficult to perform. By hitting any sized boulder, but preferably very large ones, with the handle of either hammer the rock will shrinks quite significantly. This forces rocks into submission by making them a lot smaller but incredibly massive. Using the same technique he does for normal rocks he can launch these smaller projectiles at opponents, but with the incredible mass they hold each tennis-ball sized attack can crush cars, topple buildings and has been known to cause earthquakes when striking the ground.
