Personality:
Mayu tends to be a bit playful, and arrogant. Never failing to rub peoples faces in the dirt if they dare challenge her and aren't ready to face her yet. On top of this she is very flirty with people she wants something from, or just to tease those she fights, or really just anyone but someone she actually has feelings for, which then she just gets awkward and very unlike her normal self. However while Mayu might stay busy a lot she does enjoy the peace and quiet, or music, or just relaxing things in general. Overall, unless it just really bothers her, she's up for anything. The one topic that is sure to spoil her normally good mood however, is the fact that she is a Vizard, in which case Mayu could hate that person for a very long time depending on who said something, and the context.
History:
N/A
Relationships/Friendships/Rivalries/Siblings:
Arina Kawagana - Best friend for life ever since the academy!
Other:
It should be noted that she only wears the scarf during winter so currently it is not being worn. Other than that the rest is her normal outfit.
Another note of interest is her Mask. Hers is more rounded on the sides rather than squared off. Having two small holes just a bit bigger than the eyes behind them, and on the cheeks are what appear to be gill like impressioned holes. The entirety of the mask is a plain white color.
Next is one of her own inventions. Currently it's a prototype weapon not fully working, but to operate it it requires a bracelet which Mayu always wears on her left wrist, and a ring which Mayu wear's on her right middle finger. Obviously these are specially made devices and not just any bracelet and ring would work. Through this device Mayu is able to create a bow and arrow similar to that of the Quincy though the arrow it fires is made of reiryoku and tends to be a bit more destructive, though much less capable in terms of rapid fire. This weapon is only limited in power based on how much the user puts into it. Sadly at this point in time the ring and bracelet can only take so much strain so one cannot really go too far with this or the device will break. Also Mayu isn't sure if one could ever use this limitlessly. Only time will tell with this new device.
~Zanpakuto~
Zanpakuto name:
Ningyo(Mermaid)
Type: Elemental
Zanpakuto Shikai Release command:
"Drown out their cries...Ningyo...."Spirit Appearance:
Ningyo's true appearance is that of a mermaid princess with blue hair and green eyes.
Inner world:
Mayu's inner world consists of the underwater world. The coral reefs and the sea itself. This is also considered a safe haven for Mayu emotionally so it's not uncommon for her to spend several hours here with Ningyo.
Sealed appearance:
Standard Wakizashi
Shikai appearance:
A katana with several gill shaped holes in the blade.
(It should be noted that the blade actually turns to water but is capable of turning into a blade so Mayu still has a sword to use if she wishes. If the true form is shown it's simply water being released from the hilt.)
Bankai appearance:
N/A (For now...)
Shikai special ability:
Water Manipulation
Shikai skills:
1. Shi no izumi: This technique creates water inside of Ningyo. The water is released through the gills in the blade and also from the guard where the blade extends from. This is also the general technique that allows Mayu to manipulate said water in a general sense. It should be noted that Ningyo is capable of manipulating already existing water as well, however to a slower degree. (Refer to final ability for more details on the difference.)
2. Mabayui bakari no misuto: This technique creates and spreads a thick mist causing anyone within unable to see even their own hand unless it was only a few inches from their face and even then it would be distorted. This mist is also combined with Mayu's reiryoku so that anyone within can no longer sense her presence because it is all around them. This technique can vary on how long it lasts due to it being an out put. Though normally only using it for short periods of time so it doesn't effect a large area or last long. This technique is essentially how much you put in is how much you get out. So the longer the mist is created the longer the technique would last, the less time it's created the less time it'd last. Also this effects how easily it's displaced by shock waves and the like. It also takes a lot of energy to maintain such a field so this is why she doesn't use it for terribly long periods of time unless she needs to.
3. Atsuryoku burēdo: This technique binds the water created by Ningyo with Mayu's reiryoku. After doing so Mayu may shoot a high pressured blast capable of cutting through concrete like butter, and while as thin as a blade, it is capable of being shot extremely far distances in a constant stream which pierces what it goes through, and can cut if she decides to move her blade while using this technique though technically it's still piercing just with the aim moving constantly.
4. Karitori sairen: The water itself is actually not water of the sea, nor a river, nor lake. This water is specially made by Ningyo herself. When one becomes captured by the water, whether it be a leg, arm, or their entire body, Mayu can use Ningyo's Karitori sairen to crush them. Often Mayu will state
"Karitorimasu" to activate this, but this is not required, she just has a flare for the dramatics sometimes. This ability will make it extremely hard for victims to resist, but it will not physically damage most people on a major scale, only minor damages and more on a level of muscle aches. The true purpose of this ability is to slow down opponents and trap them while the water itself pours in and out of that area of the body stealing the opponent's reiryoku. As this happens the water being used will shimmer and glow with that persons reiryoku and can't be used to take more when there is no more water without reiryoku already stored up. This water may be ingested by Mayu to heal herself, or really anyone, but only Mayu seems to be able to stay conscious while using this part of the technique.

Skills & Masteries
Zanjutsu Expert: Quite agile and swift to strike. Her skills with a blade are definitely on point, and sometimes rather...Unique.
Kido Master: One of her more praised skills, if not the highest. Kido is something that always held interest with her and something she uses in combination with her shikai for maximum efficiency.
Hakuda Expert: She's a lieutenant so she's not pathetic at this area. Mayu worked very hard to be at a lieutenant level in all of her skills at least and this was no exception.
Hoho Expert: Fast and swift, speed and cunning are definitely a skill worth noting.
