Name: Kenpachi Ueru

Appearance: Standing at 10'3" with an weight of 667 lbs, Ueru is easily one of the tallest shinigami in the soul society. An an anthropomorphic wolf, he possesses sleek, silky black fur over the entirety of his being. Ueru also possesses nine lengthy tails which each operate individually. His irises are such an light gray shade that they appear to be non-existent without closer examination.


Age:437

Race: Shinigami

Rank: Captain, Eleventh Division

Spiritual Energy Color: Black (Flames)

Personality: Ueru at his core is a survivor. Willing to do anything, regardless of how drastic, in order to achieve self-preservation. Thus includes, but is not limited to; killing comrades, subjecting himself to torture/hardships, and resorting to cannibalism. While this often portrays him to be an ruthless and unforgiving individual, which to some extent is true, Ueru has also been noted to be exceptionally loyal to certain individuals. The most notable of which being the Captain Commander himself.

Because of his selective loyalties, Ueru can also be problematically protective. Quite literally growling and barking like a chained guarddog, at least until he is assured that they are not being threatened. In battle, Ueru often plays with his opponents like a cat would a mouse. While he would not hesitate to kill them, he reserves his efforts, as a means of testing their worth. This is perhaps the only time he will show an opponent any mercy. As Ueru, when fighting full out fights with the wild ferosity of the natural predator that he is. Only the thrill of the hunt ever truly pleases him, regardless of the resulting condition of his prey.

History: As an anthropomorphic wolf, or Mouhi-to (Fur/Pelt Skinned Person), as they called themselves, Gnarl was born into the Viltoris Pack. The last remaining Mouhi-to pack in existence following a mass quincy orchestrated genocide. After being literally hunted into nigh-existinction, the remaining members of the species took refuge desert wastelands far to the south of the Soul Society. Where they dug and resided within underground dens, only leaving as to hunt for food.

Alas, after centuries of bleedy their adopted environment of its resources, the Mouhi-to were soon faced with an inevitable fate. Starvation. At first, they resorted to only eating the sick or injured. Quickly ending their life upon discovery, only to tear them assunder and devour them amongst the group. Yet, it was not enough.

Soon there were no sick, no injured. Only the hungry. Only the strong. Thus, the pack became a crowd, and the den an arena. It was kill or be killed. Utter chaos; as mothers, fathers, and siblings a like soon found themselves poised, desperate claws at eachothers' throats. In the end there could only be one, and Gnarl did not hesitate to triumph.

To survive.

Homeless, and the last of his kind, Gnarl pulled on the only emotion he could remember to drive him. Hence, it was his rage which would eventually lead him to Seireitei's doors. Determined to make somebody pay for his people's extinction, Gnarl wondered north. It was only after he had walked for days, and hunger had lapped at him like never before, that the weakened Mouhi-to at last arrived in southern rukongai's outtermost district.

The first few days were a bloody blur. Filled with endless slaughter as Gnarl devoured all in sight, attempting to satisfy the never ending hunger that was his lust for blood. By the time the shinigami had caught onto his presence, the man wolf had carved himself a bloody path right to the Red Hollow Gate of Seireitei. It was here that he had his first encounter with a Shinigami. A man named Kenpachi Yuinto.

Although the man easily defeated Gnarl, whom was unarmed. He proudly refused to kill him once he realized he was no mindless beast. Thus, brought him, under guard, to see his leader. Goken Kuribayashi. It was he whom listen to Gnarl's story and took him in. Giving him a chance for an comfortable life as a shinigami. Taken back by this, the first selfless act of kindness Gnarl ever received. He swore his allegiance. It would be the first, and only time he would bend to someone his knee.

With a new purpose, and name, Gnarl, whom now went by Ueru. A name Goken bestowed upon him, served the fifth division. Where he not only learned how to channel his anger, but also his power. As the years went by, he quickly became the lietenant of the 5th. A promotion which was short lived as he was soon transfered to the eleventh. Forced to served under the one shinigami that he yearned to kill. Kenpachi Yuinto.

A month later, the fates were kind. Having bested every swordsman in his barracks in a spar, Ueru attracted Yuinto's undivided attention. The cocky man he was, the captain was unable to resist throwing himself into the fray. Three moves later, it was over, with Yuinto's body lying bloody next to his broken boken. Half of Ueru's wooden training sword lodged within his head. Thus, Ueru killed two birds with a single blow. As a captain, he no longer had to answer to anyone save his beloved 'master' Goken. Though the sweeter news, was that he was at last rid of Yuinto.

Other: Ueru's tails are always kept into a loose braid held together by an red hairband at its end. Because of the thickness of his fur when in this state, his tails appear to simply be one larger entity as opposed to multiple smaller ones. However, they will revert back to their separated state following his shikai. At which point they can be used as additional limbs to aid him in combat. Each tail possesses strength equivalent to that of half the average active shinigami male's.

Shinigami Skills:

• Legendary Reiryoku (5/4): An Engima among his peers, Ueru's Reiryoku is so abundant that it even surpasses that possessed by Goken Himself. Making him one of, if not the most inherently powerful shinigami within the Soul Society.



• Legendary Reiatsu (5/4): Possessing an supposedly unparalleled degree of reiryoku, Ueru's reiryoku, when exerted, is his extremely concentrated. As an result, his reiatsu levels are considered to be incalculable. Hence even captain level shinigami are slightly susceptible to his reiatsu's side effects. Which usually includes extreme phantom pain affliction. However, the severity of these conditions can vary depending on the individual affected, as well as in accordance to the size of the gap in power between Ueru and themselves.



• Pathetic Kido Ability (0/4): He thinks Kido is for the weak, nuff said.



• Legendary Zanjutsu (5/4): Quick swinging, heavy hitting, and unrelenting, Kenpachi often resents the fact that his blood lust is rarely sated. Capable of overpowering most opponents with the brutish force he puts behind each strike, it is exceptionally rare to see Ueru on the defensive. Despite this though, he is exceptionally skilled in the using his sword. Hence just as capable and ruthless when defending. Usually, using his strength to parry and/or redirect an opponent's weapon before fluidly launching his own counter attacks.



• Hakuda Master (3/4): Although Ueru's technical skill in hakuda is of an average level. His giant-like strength and sharps claws give him an advantage over most when fighting hand to hand. Lacking any defensive prowess, Ueru will generally adapt an low stance on all fours and battle his prey foe as any regular wolf would. At least, any giant wolf whom could single handedly rip a man apart.



• Average Intellect (2/4): Kenpachi's ability to learn is no more advanced than the average shinigami's. Despite how he sounds, he isn't dumb. Just isn't the brightest bulb either.



• Incredible Knowledge (4/4): Kenpachi's memory is superb, nigh-photographic. Once he has witnessed something, he never forgets it. Even if his recollection is slightly off. Thus, he is capable of actively studying his past at whim with little effort.



• Hoho Retarded(0/4): Is what it is. Can't use shunpo. However, his flexibility and reaction speed are a wonder to see.

---Zanpakuto---

Name: Koukonmu-n / Twilight Moon

Type: Fire/Earth Type

Sealed appearance: When sealed, Koukonmu-n appears as a nodachi sword with an black handle, silver wrist guard and silver blade.

Inner world: "Many years ago, the moon had a lover. His name was Coacuatchoo. But there was a third spirit that longed for the moon, he was a trickster. So, one day the trickster tells Coacuatchoo that the Moon asked for flowers from our world and to go and pick some red roses, so he did. But, what Coacuatchoo didn't know, is that once you leave the spirit realm, you can never go back. So he forever roams the land, howling to his lost love night after night. This is Ueru's curse. To be a beast whose lust can never be satisfied, and a man whose heart has grown tired and old." - Koukonmu-n

Spirit appearance: Koukonmu-n appears as an white fox whose fur blazes with bright flames at it's extent.


Shikai apperance: The blade of his zanpakuto glows red. Refer to Ueru's appearance above.

Shikai command: Rather than an verbally spoken phrase, Ueru activates Koukonmu-n's shikai by producing an incredibly loud and elongated howl. If done at the very heart of Seireitei, it could be heard echoing across the sky all the way in the 1st Rukongai district. Halfway through the howl, an second voice will be heard howling next to it. Koukonmu-n's.

Shikai Special Ability: While in shikai, Koukonmu-n's blade glows red. When this happens, it also gains the ability to cut through objects with increased proficiency. Due to the blade becoming super heated. When coupled with his strength, this can sometimes cause him to break others zanpakutos when his and theirs clash.

Passive Abilities:

• Indomitable Aura: - During his shikai, Ueru becomes surrounded by an aura of black flames. His reiatsu. These flames are capable of severely burning anything which enters it's reach. While they usually hover just above his fur, making them sometimes seem to be only fur, they can also be launched from his being as blasts of flame.
  

Active Abilities:

• Kohonoh: (Dark Blaze) -
The act by Ueru of palming some of his reiatsu aura during shikai, then launching it at an foe. Short ranged ability, frequency of use limited only by Ueru's current reiatsu output.

Bankai appearance: Same as Shikai.

Bankai command: Feel the earth and Sniff the sky. Hunt with me... Okasu Koukonmu-n / Ravishing Twilight Moon

Active Ability: Matsuri: (Feast) - After Ueru's bankai is activated. He points his blade into the sky and cries out the word "Matsuri". When he does this, a torrent of black flames is constantly shot high into the clouds. As this happens, the aura surrounding Ueru intensifies. Causing the flames around him to burn so fiercely that they become white. Contact with these flames will result in at the very least third degree burns, and depending on where and how much of an individual is exposed to them, death. After a few seconds, the earth and any objects created of an natural earth element, (such as metal, rock, sand, glass, etc.) with the exception of zanpakutos, are pulled towards the top of the torrent at the cloud line. After a few minutes, these objects are melted together to form an enormous sphere 30 km in radius. Once completed, this sphere is set ablaze by the black flames of Ueru's torrent, and dropped onto the area below. Unless one is able to escape its radius within ten seconds, they are crushed, then burned, and finally torn to shreds by the shrapnel of the ensuing explosion. This includes Ueru.

No problem, take your time :D I was just checking. Maybe a little more to his personality would be good, but that's only because I love reading personalities :P But so far looks like an interesting character.

Slooowly picking away at my History section.

Meet Hioshimi, the Insomniac Lieutenant of squad 8. She needs a surname, and a name for her Zanpakuto that goes around the theme of sleep/insomnia. Any ideas?

Nocturno :P

Love it, love it, love it. My history section's hit a standstill - I need to see what Riddle has to say on her captain in order to collab with her on the history section, so I'll work on the Zanpakuto for now!

Really? It was the first thing that popped into my mind, living close to Italy :P

Great to hear it's slowly going good :D As I said, no need to rush Stitch, there is time.

:P

Right, Shinigami skills...What do?

Stitches said Reiryoku (3/4)

Zanjutsu (3/4)

Hakuda (1/4)

Kido (3/4)

Hoho (1/4)

Here's the part I -don't- understand that well, the equations. I've separated my talents like so, but I'm not too sure how to proceed now.

Doublepost.

Alright, about the equations. As to not complicate it further, I can just calculate that for you aaaand... you have 18 skill points to distribute amongst skills of your liking :D

So you can distribute that amongst those things in italics. :)

Done and done. Thank you!

Any time, Stitch :)

Get out.

Fine. You won't get nice manners in this edit. Serves you right.

Well I got my v.1 app up so...what do you think?

@:Grimm xD

@: Archangel: I like him, Well done. :) You now have 1/4 Stamps of Approval.

I like him too, he is a very interesting character, as I said before, and you proved that. So far, that's 2/4 Stamps of Approval, so that pretty much tells you it's going good ;)

@Stitch, I went back to your character and took a read on what you have up so far. I love her history, it's pretty original and the concept of her character is also pretty likable to me :D
