Death & the Sign-Up 2

~Background~
Roughly 200 years ago, irreconcilable differences between the Quincies & the Soul Reapers led to a war, in the aftermath of which, Quincies were almost completely exterminated. In the recent past, Quincy scientist Aamon Avici emerged, nearly destroying the Soul Society and embarking on a fanatical genocide of the Soul Reapers, in retribution for being killed in the war he did not fight in. Revolutionizing the processes of Hollowfication & Shinigamification, he transformed his soul many times over, greatly increasing his power. Still, it proved too little, and his final desperation gambit succeeded only in dragging himself to Hell.

17 months since that day, the Soul Society has been mostly rebuilt, but the scars of the war can still be felt. Many of the Rukongai citizens were corrupted and destroyed, making the balance between the worlds incredibly unstable. The number of Hollows who have obtained Soul Reaper powers, Arrancar, has also slowly-but-steadily increased, due to Aamon's research leaking out after his death. But perhaps the most disturbing of all is the report that something emerged from Hell in the week following Aamon's death, then vanished without a trace.

In the living world, few humans are even aware of these events. Even those few who are do not know the full story. The Soul Reapers have had limited duty in the world of the living these past 17 months, and they are forbidden from speaking of the new developments anyway. However, Aamon's experiments included humans, and not all of them were located, so the living world is now being actively targeted by powerful Hollows once more.

~Sign-Up~
Name: First & last.
Age: Actual & apparent, where necessary. For instance, a Yamamoto looked about 80, but he was actually 2000, or so.
Appearance: What the character looks like, with a description &/or an image.
Type: Soul Reaper, Hollow, yadayada. Soul Reapers start with lieutenant-class abilities, while Hollows start as Arrancar evolved from Gillian or Adjuchas.
Bio: A short history of the character. If a returning character, make additions to the story in a different color.
Abilities: A description of the character's skill in terms of spiritual pressure, Kido, speed, & swordsmanship. Spiritual pressure is the power resevoir for attack and defense, Kido or an equivalent skill is magic, speed includes basic speed and the Flash Step, & swordsmanship can be substituted with any kind of weapon proficiency. Please try not to make it maxed across the board.
Power: Simply put, the Zanpakuto. Put more complicatedly: Characters don't necessarily have to be Soul Reaper or Arrancar, but whatever it is, it follows the sealed-->initial-->final form format. So an Arrancar would have a Ressurrecion & a Segunda Etapa, a Soul Reaper would have a Shikai & a Bankai, & a human who had powers would have them manifest in some kind of 2-stage thing. The second stage can be put off until a later date. Hollowfication or Shinigamification is also an option.
Other: Other stuff to note...pretty self-explanatory.

Probably going to spread my sign-ups out through a few posts, & I want to wait for others, but I thought people might appreciate an example:

Name: Senthose Rasheverek
Age: Around 10 thousand. Physically 20.
Appearance: Has a slight build with shoulder-length silver hair. Irises are red with cat-like pupils. Skin is white. Like most Arrancar, he retains his Hollow hole, but for him, it remained in the center of his chest. Also like most Arrancar, some of his Mask remains. The remnants have shifted to form "tendrils" around the Hollow hole.
Type: Arrancar
Bio: Senthose was a massive, jellyfish-like Gillian lurking under the sands of Hueco Mundo when the Quincy arrived. The pair conspired to evolve him into the form he has now. With Senthose's powers, they built up an army of Gillians, & gathered other Arrancar to their cause. Senthose then conspired to kill all of his competitors in both the Soul Society and Hueco Mundo, but the final battle left him drained of most of his powers. To that end, he consumed the Gillian army, returned to Hueco Mundo, & disappeared with a great deal of research.
Abilities: An expert swordsman, not particularly fast, diminished spiritual pressure, but great control over it. Senthose has lost the ability to use Segunda Etapa.
Power: "Transdifferentiate, Irukandji." In his Ressurrecion, his clothing becomes similar to that of a Gillian, robelike & ending in trailing black tendrils. This grants him the powers of: High Speed Regeneration, Extending tendrils, Poison, Lightning manipulation, & Infestation. The latter power has been modified to control Hollows who consume him and regenerate himself from their bodies.
Other: The Zanpakuto is a nodachi with a blue handle & a jet black blade. The guard resembles budding organisms while the pommel features an elaborate blue "ribbon" structure which often wraps around & grips his arm. He also carries 2 black ninjato for use when his Zanpakuto disappears during his Ressurrecion.

Name: Taiyo Shikasu
Age: 195, 19 (physically)
Appearance: Long brunette hair tied into pig tails with pom-pom hairties, blue green tiger print cat-ear headband, brown eyes, blue green collar with a gold bell around her neck, top missing from her Soul Reaper robes, wears a blue green tiger print bikini underneath, the top sporting a green gem stone in the middle, green flip-flops.
Type: Soul Reaper
Bio: Born to a less than noble family, she died alone almost two-hundred years ago. She never married or done anything of the sort as she showed no interest in men. Thinking it would be fun, she became a Soul Reaper and quickly found out it's quite the opposite. Presumably not being able to quit, she resumes her duties not enjoying it one bit. At some point, she was assigned to do Soul Reaper stuff in the Human World before the Senakimon went down. After Aamon's defeat, Taiyo returned to the Soul Society with her new cuddle buddy, Venezuela who's living with her. Since her return, Taiyo is assisting in the reconstruction of the Soul Society.
Abilities: Above average speed, average with Kido, and below average strength.
Power: "Purr, Kitexi Neko," the Zanpakuto takes on the form of a blue green lance (or whatever color she's wearing at the time) with a corkscrew head. Rather than whooshing noises, the lance makes meowing sounds when its swung or jabbed and creates paws with their claws extended made out of water. Her speed and Kido abilities have improved as well as her strength to a lesser extent.
Other: Collar, headband, and bikini always match.

Sabertooth.
Mask: A white mask that covers her entire face with feline features such as pointed ears, greenish-yellow eyes shaped like a cats, black markings near the nose that resemble whiskers, and two large fangs like a sabertooth tiger.

The Zanpakuto disappears and her fingers take the form of silver blade-like claws. Coarse, black fur covers her entire body except the mask which remains the same save for the mouth being able to open and close and she sprouts a tail.

Her strength is increased and her speed is greatly increased as well her sense of sight, smell, and hearing being enhanced. The claws are capable of generating electricity which can be transfered through direct causing shocks and severe burns.

Unaru Kitexi Neko.
Description: Taiyo's entire body is enveloped in water. A light forms inside and the water soon explodes outwards revealing Taiyo wearing black short shorts with a blue green tiger print tail and a blue green sleeveless cropped top. On her hands are blue green tiger print paw-looking gloves with retractable claws and on her feet are matching slippers which also include retractable claws. Both are used for offense. Multiple water droplets still reside on her body.

Abilities: Her speed is greatly increased making her movements faster than her Hollow form.
The water droplets can expand into squares to protect individual areas or they can all expand and merge to protect her entire being. For offense, when the droplets expand they can lash out as shape shifting appendages.

Name: Kite Braudel
Age: 15, 122
Appearance: He stands at 5'8 with short messy darkish red hair and eyes of the same color. He wears a Reaper uniform as well as a yellow scarf that he wears around his neck cowboy-style.
Type: Soul Reaper
Bio: Kite belonged to a high noble family, but rebelled and fled at the age of 15 due to conflicts with an uncle of his. Prior to his escape, he had once accidentally casted an energy shield when fencing with a friend. Later, he got in an accident and was followed and brought to the Soul Society. Training in the academy, he began showing his true talent and took the 6th seat of the 2nd division at 90. He is a cheerful person, even though some times distracted. He is known for dozing off in the weirdest places, as well as for his somewhat childish personality at times. After Aamon's defeat, he became Captain of the sixth division and has been doing intensive training while helping reconstruct the Soul Society.
Abilities: Kite isn't very physically strong, but is much more developed speed-wise. His spiritual pressure is somewhat low, which isn't exactly relevant as he depends on his melee skills a lot more than Kido. This doesn't mean he doesn't cast spells though, and he is actually very proficient in casting Bakudo. He relies on a very flash step-oriented fighting style, going for quick hits and avoiding direct combat as much as possible. He holds his Zanpakuto in a reverse grip. Having undergone a lot of training over the last 17 months, he is now even faster, relying on flash step for battles not many eyes can keep up with.
Power: "Flare, Hephaestus." When in its Shikai form, his katana becomes a two-bladed silver boomerang with glowing red linings and a black hilt at the blades' intersection. It is almost twice as long as the regular katana and he uses it both as a thief sword and an actual boomerang, adding ranged attacks to his quick fighting style. It will return to his hand regardless of how much he's moved since hurling it, and he can order it to redirect itself towards any target once before it returns. This can be done before or after it turns back.
"Flare, Pyr Hephaestus." When in its Bankai form, the Zanpakuto becomes a pair of enhanced versions of the Shikai. Instead of a two-bladed boomerang, they become wind-and-fire wheels with arrow shaped blades and black handle. The blades are covered in small glowing red leaves. They spin at amazingly high speeds and he can control them through air at will, also being able to control fire to support the wheels and defend himself, usually in plant-inspired ways. He also uses them as close combat weapons.

Those are pathetic, but I guess they're passable. With that in mind, a few more characters:

Name: Lilith Psyche.
Age: 22, 202
Appearance: White skin, green eyes, flat as a board. Has long, red hair, which is drawn back into a single braid, save for her bangs. She wears earth clothing under her Shihaksho, which has been modified to be able to be opened and draped over her shoulder(s). Her Zanpakuto, worn at her side, is contained in a black sheath, with a red hilt & a golden guard like a flower bud.
Type: Soul Reaper
Bio: Born to a lesser noble family 200 years ago, it was planned that she'd be married to a more prominent family, increasing the Psyche family's wealth & influence. However, when it turned out that she had enough talent to make it as a Soul Reaper, it was decided that she'd seek that influence from within the 13 Court Guard Squads instead. At 150, she finally obtained Shikai, & was made the 4th Seat of Squad 13. With Captain Ukitake killed during the conflict, and Lilith being a key player in Aamon's defeat, Lilith was promoted to Lieutenant of her Squad. Lilith has also been in charge of scouting for potential officer candidates to refill the Gotei's starved ranks. It was she who found Noah's lieutenant on the outskirts of Rukongai.
Abilities: Lilith is now one of the most proficient practitioners of Flash Step & Kido. Her Reitsu is also mid Captain level. Her swordsmanship, on the other hand, has barely improved at all.
Power: "Germinate, Yggdrasil." In its shikai state, her katana becomes flushed rose with silver etchings of flowers along the blade. The guard also opens up, resembling a bloomed flower. Its ability, simply put, turns energy (such as from a deflected attack) into flower petals. Those petals can then be converted into another form of energy exactly once.
Bankai, Sephira Yggdrasil: The Bankai dissolves her sword, generating a forest of plants around her. The forest can be converted back to Reitsu & moved with her. All of these plants can not only be controlled and shape-changed for offense, but they can take in energy, creating blooms. This energy can then be converted to another form or, if enough is gathered, into matter.
Other: Since I don't know shit about Japanese, I'll be naming my shit with mythological references.

Hollowfication: Faerie. The mask has a flat face with narrow eye openings & a wide grin of needle-like teeth. It forms 2 leaf-like projections which sweep down over her head on either side of her braid. The mask has dark pink marks forming "dripping" around the mouth & under the eyes. Also, partially covering her upper body is a series of vine-like structures, capable of minor shapeshifting. Most notably, they can grow 4 flower petal like wings for her, reminiscent of a dragonfly. Also has the ability to eat other Hollows to become more Hollow like. Needless to say, Lilith detests that ability & doesn't use it. Other than that, it behaves like a typical Visored mask. Her Hollowfication is now such that it can fire a Gran Rey Cero, spread vines over her entire body, and produce controlled Reitsu blasts from all over her body.
=========================================================================================
Name: Venezuela Guvera
Age: Around 200, Physically 20
Appearance: Dark skin, long, wavy black hair, blue eyes. Uniform leaves a bare midriff & is sleeveless. Mask Remnants form triangular clips in her hair & faint “teeth” extending from the corners of her mouth in a smile.
Zanpakuto Name: Vupes Zerda. A pair of butterfly swords with 6 inch blades & knuckle spikes. The handles are red & a rabbits’ foot hangs off of the end of each of them.
Release Command: Gouge
Bio: Venezuela sought out Aamon because she wanted to have a better life than living in the desert, but didn't want to sacrifice her pride as a Hollow. After being shown mercy by her enemies & realizing that Aamon was only going to kill them all, she was instrumental to getting his Arrancars to turn on him. For this reason, she was allowed to remain in the Soul Society with Taiyo. Though she adamantly declined a position in the 13 Court Guard Squads, she aided in the restoration of the Soul Society, primarily using her powers to demolish & reconstruct buildings.
Resurreccion Appearance: The uniform becomes replaced with a skirt & top made of white fur. Her teeth become fanglike & her finger & toe nails become more claw-like. In addition, she sports metal gauntlets on her wrists that produce knives like claws (think Wolverine). Lastly, she gains a prehensile fox tail & a helmet like a fox skull with ears.
Powers: Enhanced speed, enhanced senses, knife generation (can throw the knives & generate more), cero & bala concentration (concentrating their energy around her weapons), & sand control. The latter is her main power. She can use her tail to sweep up sand & infuse it with her Reitsu, allowing her to remotely change its properties.
Other: I just threw that name together on the spot by asking a Canadian for Spanish-y words.

Name: Noctis Talea.

Age: 26.

Appearance: Noctis has fairly pale skin, a point of contention with her. Her hair is just longer than chin length in the front, and slightly shorter in the back. Her eyes are such a dark shade of brown that they look almost black. She has a proclivity for dark clothes, usually simple things with a jacket over it.
During combat Noct's eyes lose most of the color they have and become almost a shiny silver color. In contrast to her eyes, the rest of her always seems to be cast in a shadow, as if standing under a raincloud.
After her battle with Ulquiorra, whenever using her powers two dark lines travel down her cheeks from her eyes, similar to Ulquiorra's in his Segundo Etepa.

Type: FullBringer.

Bio: Noctis, Noct for short, was born in the USA, but moved to Japan soon after her birth, making her bilingual. Noct was raised by her single, work-aholic mother. She never knew her father, though it didn't matter much to her. Growing up Noct had way too much energy for her own good and poured that energy into as many hobbies as time would allow. On Mondays she would take Judo lessons, Tuesday went to Muay Thai and Kendo, Wednesday was spent taking art classes, Thursdays were spent on dancing with her mom, and Fridays she hung out with local parkour boys and learned that too.
Noct went to school a normal school, and coasted by with below average grades. This, coupled with Noct's rare habit of getting into fights and winning led to a reputation as a "bad" kid. It didn't really bother her, but it did get annoying when people she thought were friends slowly drifted away because they didn't want to be associated with her.
As she got older she slowly became more and more introverted until she stopped doing all the things she used to entirely. Well, at least she stopped dedicating entire days to doing them. She spent most of her time playing video games, and studying during her high school, and college years. The only Judo, Muay Thai, and Kendo training she got then was from whatever fight she gets into, which is more often than what one would normally think. The only drawing lessons she got were the ones she tought herself. She only danced when forced to, and only practiced freerunning when she was running away from something or is in a hurry to get somewhere. Still, it was hard to stop knowing how to do something when you used to do it so much, so Noct still knews how to do most of her hobbies pretty well.
Her new lifestyle wasn't a bad move all things considered. Her focus on schoolwork brought her grades to a resounding A+ average, and she had a lot of free time. The one downside from the change was her growing reputation for being cold and indifferent, made worse by her now quiet nature. She was really quite a warm person once you got to know her, the only problem was she didn't like letting new people get to know her, at least not right away.
At the age of 20 Noctis found out she was a pretty special person. Odd things began to happen, when she was in a rush it seemed like the ground would push her along, when her hair was a bitch to comb she would find her brush to become one of the best ones in the world, undoing knots with ease. It all came to a head when Noctis found herself invited to join a very select group. They called themselves FullBringers, and explained what it meant. It was a lot to take in at first, and Noct was apprehensive about their reasons, but soon she accepted the help they had to offer. She was trained to use her powers to their fullest abilities from that point, but a growing resentment for her powers began to eat away at her. It wasn't like they were not helpful, it was like something inside her wanted them gone, like white blood cells fighting an infection.
After four years as friends, a few traumatic experiences, and another year and a half as partners, Noctis and Euryale have settled into a steady and ongoing relationship, making Noctis the happiest girl in the world. They now share Euryale's house, with Noctis' old apartment being sold. Noct took the money made by selling her old place and gave it to John, to help keep the FullBringers afloat. While not one to directly intervene, Noctis does make it a point to help out financially whenever the FullBringers need it.

Abilities: Noct, being a FullBringer, doesn't have normal spiritual signature, nor does she have a proclivity for kido. That said, her spiritual pressure, or its FullBringer equivalent, can be said to be very dense and at the level, give or take, of a Lieutenant soul reaper.
Having been trained all her life, and tested on the streets, Noctis has grown to become one of the better hand to hand fighters around. While she doesn't always fight with swords, Noct is also a very proficient kendo practitioner. Noct's main point of power lies firmly in her speed however. She is one of, if not the fastest FullBringer around, and her experience as a freerunner has given her an acrobatic flair in combat, as well as an excellent sense of movement, both with herself, and opponents. It comes natural to her to see a flex of muscles and know what the eventual movement will be.

Power: Noct's FullBring is called Umbral Edge. It gives her a total mastery over shadows. Her power ranges in strength depending on the amount of shadows available to her, though she has found unique ways to exploit this "flaw". On a basic level Noct can travel between shadows, and make them hard enough to use as weapons, usually a sword or knife, though she has been known to get creative.
When Noct is serious will begin to augment herself with shadows, creating a dense exoskeleton, and using shadows to amplify her attacks are a few ways in which she will exploit her power in this stage.
When Noct wants someone dead she will go all out and start to feed off of the shadows around her. Feeding off of the energy of shadows is more or less how her powers work across the board, but in her final stage she will almost literally consume them, darkening herself, and brightening the surrounding area. This consumption of shadows greatly amplifies her power leads to some astounding implementations of her ability, ranging from super enhanced speed, to creating tangible clones from the shadows in her possession.
Her ability is controlled mostly through the use of her eyes, which shine a bright silver in the darkness, allowing her to see very well no matter how dark, or bright it is. They also act as a kind of indicator to the use of Noct's power. When not serious her eyes barely glow gray. When employing shadow augmentation only one eye will glow bright silver. When using abilities that rely on shadow consumption both eyes will begin to glow silver.
After her fight with Ulquiorra Noctis has gained the ability to imbue pure reitsu into her attacks. This has led to the development of her Lanza Sin Luz, which, while incomplete during the fight with Aamon, has now been nearly perfected, and shows this through a power, and accuracy increase. Noct also found a way to incorporate her new reitsu ability into her Absence of Light attack, significantly raising the attack power of her most powerful attack, though she now passes out for longer periods of times.

Other: Sarcastic.

Name: Euryale Rakshashi.
Age: 27
Appearance: About 6 feet with bronze skin, a pronounced chest, & red hair that reaches down to about her shoulders. Typically wears cut-off jean shorts & a black t-shirt. During the winter, she's mre of a jeans-&-sweater kind of girl. Dislikes shoes, so she typically wears flip-flops.
Type: FullBringer
Bio: Euryale was born in Japan with some kind of crazy-ass mixed ancestry that I don't feel like going into. As she grew up, she learned English & Spanish, in addition to her native tongue. She also became more religious, employing kind of a New Age/Shintoism thing. At 16, she started to notice her FullBringer powers take form &, with them, a kind of savagery. Over the next few years, her grades started to drop & she began lashing out & becoming anxious. Fortunately, at age 20, before anything serious could happen, she was brought into the FullBringer group & taught about her powers, so she learned to control her manifest rage better. Since Aamon's downfall, she's been in a monoecious relationship with Noctis. In addition to making God cry, they also do swordsmanship lessons & play videogames. Euryale is a bit more active in John's work, often called in to rennovate the hideouts.
Abilities: Monstrous strength & spiritual pressure, no Kido (but adept at general Fullbringing), starting to learn swordsmanship.
Power: In her normal state, she can do things most FullBringers can. Her specific FullBring is earth-based. Its basic ability is to reshape the earth. Its more advanced ability gives Euryale armor (described below) & allows her to change its inherent properties.
Other: Euryale's armor is a Greek chest plate and plated skirt, with bracers at her wrists & ankles. As Euryale's armor recrystallized around Ulquiorra's power, it now features black plates that shine vaguely brown, with white markings bleeding down from her chest. There is also some white fur under her skirt & bracers.

Name: Mortal Dulce.

Age: Unknown. Physically 20.

Appearance: Mortal has milky skin, and hair, which is usually kept in a ponytail, with loose bangs. Her eyes are an icy blue. Though she stands at about 6' flat, Mortal has a clearly feminine body. She has a small vertical scar over her right eye, going through her eyebrow, and a cross shaped scar along the same line just under her eye.
Like all arrancar, Mortal retains her hollow hole and mask. Her hole is located in the middle of her clavicle, at the base of her neck. Her mask takes the form of a dragon fang which replaces her right canine.
After being "outsourced" by Aamon, Mortal has adopted a new attire. This one simply consists of a red long sleeved t-shirt, with the sleeves pushed up to her elbows, blue, boot cut jeans, and black riding boots, worn under the jeans, with a belt to match, though her shirt is untucked.

Type: Arrancar

Bio: Mortal was once a hulking, dragon-esque, Adjuchas. Then some shit happened, she met a Quincy, and became an Arrancar in his group for some reason I'm not entirely aware of.
After that all went to hell, figuratively, and literally, Mortal spent most of her time with Sab. After a brief stay in Hueco Mundo, the two of them traveled around the world for a bit before settling in Japan, and leading a, more or less, peaceful life free from violence and war, much to Sab's, and in turn, Mortal's delight.

Abilities: An expert swordsman, and fighter, but not fast. Has a dense spiritual pressure, and a hierro to challenge the gods, and high speed regeneration just in case the challenge is met. Her strength and cero are both immensely powerful.

Power: "Rumble, Gran Lagarto." Mortal's sole appearance change in her Ressurrecion is her hands becoming red, and clawed, the whites of her eyes taking the color of her iris, and a mouth full of fangs. In this form Mortal can control what appears to be some kind of trans-dimensional dragon while staying rooted with powerful defensive abilities.

Duras Escalas: Mortal summons swaths of hard, red scales to protect her from strikes. She can do this without moving, but the scales are more effective if she does.

Rugido: Mortal's emits an ear splitting roar which acts as a kind of shockwave, pushing enemies back.

Aliento de Fuego: Mortal's dragon appears, and spits out a swath of flames capable of melting glass.

Gran Lagarto Cero: Mortal's dragon appears, and fires a blue cero from its mouth. There is a bit of a charging period for this ability, but the payoff is worth the time.

Segundo Etepa: "Armadura del Gran Lagarto" Mortal loses the ability to control her dragon and instead has its abilities bestowed upon her. Its defense takes the shape of a suit of dragon-skin armor, and its power takes the shape of an Odachi. All of the abilities from her previous release are retained and strengthened.

Name : Kira Isaan
Type : Shinigami
Rank : 3rd Seat
Weapon Description: 60 inch long Katana with black hild and an iron cross finger guard.
Abilities: High Level Shunpo, High Level Kido, Expert of Swordsmanship, Strong Reiatsu.
Power: Shikai- "Tentei". The blade and the hilt separate, the blade transforms into a javelin of dark green fire, and the hilt decomposes itself and spreads out around the left arm as a dark purple shroud. On command the purple shroud acts as a highly effective shield against medium level kido attacks, and the javelin fires at an extremely high speed and is burning hot to the touch of anybody but the wielder.
The javelin not only burns and deforms flesh but cuts through it like warm butter. The shield has no effect against physical attacks, however completely blocks weak and moderate kido attacks.
Bankai- "Kemono Kikyuu, Tentei". Kira's javelin floats in the air before bursting into three pieces. Each pieces expands and takes the form of a male lion made from green flames with glowing red eyes.
The mist rises above Kira and also expands, becoming thicker and larger (more like smoke than mist) before taking the form of a dark purple python.
Kira also formes a simple blade in his hands, decorated with intricate purple and green patterns.

Kira is able to control all of these creatures simply by willing them to take actions, and all of them have special abilities.
The lions are highly powerful and any one of them can explode with immense power (strong enough to tear apart up to 30 square metres of land). The lions are not gone after exploding, but are reborn from the flames of their own explosions, growing twice as powerful for the first two times it regenerates- it takes up to 5 seconds for the lion to regenerate.
Each lion can use a fast moving technique in which they tear apart and reform in a new location in a very short time, depending on how big they are (the bigger they are the longer it takes).
The python can block reiatsu based attacks by either opening it's mouth and sucking it in or turning it's body into a circular shield, this has a blocking capability only slightly more powerful than the shikai mist, but it also has the ability to convert attacks it has sucked in to it's own blasts.
As long as Kira holds the blade, the creatures will do exactly what he wants them to do. If the blade is dropped, each individual creature will do as it wills until the blade is retrieved.

Hollowfication- The mask appears to be completely blank except for eyes and a mouth- it covers the entire head. The eyes are wide, coloured black with a yellow iris and the mouth is broad and smiling with many pointed teeth. The mask can also emit extremely loud and high pitched shrieks, with not only cause disorientation and hearing
but can act as shockwaves that disrupt reiatsu based attacks.
It can fire large cero too, coloured dark purple (almost black but with a slight purple shade).
Kira's phsycial strength and speed is greatly enhanced.

In the second form of Hollowfication the entire body becomes encased in a substance similar to his mask. He appears to be mainly coloured like bone, but has some red trim around his body.
He is still capable of emitting the shrieks, but on an even greater level.
The Cero is vastly enhanced, as is his speed and strength.
Tucked into the small of his back are two extra arms. He also has a whipping tail with a "u" shaped blade at the end which can charge Cero/Balla.
Underneath his outer skin/scales, is a layer of gooey liquid that is packed full of antitoxins and soaks up most poisons which are transfered directly into the body.
While his Hierro is only a medium toughness/strength in this form, he is capable of high speed generation of limbs and to a limited extent, regeneration of organs and other vital body parts.
This form is most similar to a lizard, as his legs become much more raptor like and he has tough scales (the mask substance forms scales) which can shrug off most small attacks.

Character Description: Black hair, deep blue eyes, pale white skin, light build.


Bio: Kira Isaan died when he was 12 years old- he was hit by a speeding car. He spent 2 years wondering the Rukongai in search of the parents he had never met. He was often picked on by other children as he wondered through the districts, so he learnt to defend himself and would beat the bullies senseless.
One day on his miserable quest, he came across a Shinigami murdering somebody in a back alley street of a Rukongai district. He was killing a skinny woman who had children- the children tried to stop the Shinigami, so he was going to kill them as well. He would have succeeded if Kira Isaan had not attacked him.
After that, he went on with his miserable, never ending quest wearing a blood stained kimono of the Shinigami he killed back in that alley.
When his body had aged so that he looked 15, and he was really 25 years old, he decided that there were no parents for him in all of the Rukongai, and that he would be better to enter the Sereitei. The only way to get in there that he could see was to become a Shinigami.
He was put into the advanced class when he joined the Shinigami Academy, and proved himself a very skilled swordsman and a talented kido student. After graduation he was assigned to Squad 9 under Kaname Tousen.
After many assignments to the World of the Livings and sparring matches with other members of the Squad, he moved his way up the ranks to 3rd Seat.
After Aamon's defeat, Kira was made captain of the 9th Division and set to work rebuilding the Soul Society and training the men under his command, as well as himself.

Name: Sab Rosa.

Age: Unknown. Appears 18.

Appearance: Sab has milky skin, and pale blond hair, which is longer in the sides than the back and front. It is kept straight and silky. Her eyes are a very light shade of brown. She stands at about 5'6'', and has a modest set of endowments, and curves, however, her slender, and feminine frame stops her from looking boyish because of it.
Like all arrancar, Sab retains her hollow hole and mask. Her hole is located where her throat should be. Her mask takes the form of a pair of glossy ram horns on her head.
Her clothing consists a long sleeved, black turtleneck, which she wears untucked, with a golden belt the color of her hair over it. On her lower body she wears a gray, satin skirt, with a floral print on them similar to the one on her shorts, that stop just above the knees. Her boots are a pair of golden, nearly knee high riding boots that cover black, knee high socks.
She also wears a gold necklace with a pendant of a little gold sheep, given to her by Mortal that she treasures over all else.

Type: Arrancar.

Bio: Since her shinigamification from Senthose, Sab has been by Mortal's side, and after Aamon's defeat, they only grew closer, traveling the world together, and finally settling down in Japan, in an area Mortal was a bit familiar with.
During this time Sab was given a few lessons in swordsmanship by Mortal, but since she was already at a level that outclassed most normal hollows and shinigami, Sab didn't see much need for it, though she did enjoy the time spent with Mortal.

Abilities: Slightly above average spiritual pressure. Above average Sonido, and average swordsmanship.

Power: "Bleat, Negro Ovejas." Sab loses her clothes and instead becomes entirely black, right down to her sclera (though her irises remain the light brown), teeth and hair. Her body below her neck also becomes entirely featureless, as if wearing a skin tight unitard.

Saltar: Sab gains the ability to teleport out of harm's way.

Vista: Sab gains the ability of super enhanced sight, allowing her to perceive opponent's actions early, and to see over long distances.

Lana: Sab gains the ability to cover herself in durable, black wool. This ability serves no purpose other than insulation, mild water absorption, and it works as a flame retardant. Also, it can be sheared and used to make clothing and other wool products, such as rugs, and blankets.

Cero: Cero, simple black cero.
Balla, simple black balla.

Name: Noah Deluge
Age: 106, looks to be 20-something.
Appearance: Dishevelled, dirty blond hair. White skin, blue eyes. Built kind of thicker, but not like Barragon or Yammy. Soul Reaper robes are oddly blue-tinged.
Bio: Having slightly more brains than a garden hose, Noah chose to live his afterlife just outside of Rukongai, to ignore the crime & generally shitty conditions, rather than make the dangerous trek to the closer, more subdued areas. However, during Aamon's invasion, many Hollows flocked to the Rukongai. His conscience got the better of him & he set off to deal with the rogue Hollows. Captain Kenpachi showed up on the front lines &, after they took care of the Hollows, randomly attacked him. It became a "fight" in the sense that Noah tried to keep this fucking psychopath from brutally murdering him. When he didn't outright die, Kenpachi noted the similarity in their Zanpakutos, & decided to invite him to become the 4th Seat of Squad 11. After a few days in the infirmary, he was ready to take up the position. While he was in there, he agreed to volunteer in his extra time, in exchange for Kido lessons. He was eventually assigned to a mission to eliminate Hollows in Australia. Due to a run-in with the Cleaner, he was spewed out within just an HOUR after the invasion, in the earth timeline, & the Senkaimon recognizes this as the date it was opened. This sequence of events has never been explained. Noah made great leaps in power in the battle with Aamon, & eventually became the new Kenpachi by default.
Type: Soul Reaper
Abilities: As is usual in the 11th Division, he's abnormally strong for a Soul Reaper, & skilled at both sword & hand-to-hand combat. Unlike usual, he is a skilled Kido user, but he can't control his Reitsu enough for most Bakudo. The primary condition for Noah being accepted as a Captain was that he learn to control where the fuck he's going when using Shunpo. He still can't use it very often, though.
Power: "Resonate, Banshee," but the Zanpakuto is a permanent Shikai type. The Shikai is a European-style longsword that is capable of emitting blasts of force, usually accompanied by a screaming effect of some kind. He keeps it secured to his back via a steel sash wrapped around his chest.
Banshee's Echo: Noah's Bankai generates armor around his sword arm & a "vest" or "chest plate" that's actually a metal wing wrapped around him. The feathers vibrate rapidly, & can be used for additional attack, defense, or detached for various attack/defense powers.
Other: Gayer than the Faggot Tree.
===================================================
Noah's long-awaited (not a blatant lie) Hollowfication: Siren

I. Noah obtains a Mask like a hawk's head. This stage acts like a Visored stage.

II. By gouging out his Hollow with his Zanpakuto, Noah causes his Chain of Fate emerges and elongate, binding a new entity to him. This entity takes his Mask & adds a muscular humanoid body with steel claws and a cloak made of metal feathers with a hole at its neck, which the chain is bound to.

A. Sonic Cero: Disperses many Bala through sound waves, creating an adjustable blast that acts like a Cero.
B. Supersonic Cero: Uses sound waves to contain a Cero blast, then mixes it with a Sonido current for a variety of devestating effects.
C. High Speed Regeneration: Siren will continue to regenerate as long as Noah is alive.
D. Siren Song: A unique song with the power to heal allies, especially used on Noah.
E. Anti-Hierro Shout: A short blast of sound emitted by the claws that weaken defenses before striking.
F. Sound of Silence: Rubs the feathers against one another to produce a song that confuses the enemy's senses, making it more difficult to detect the pair through any means. Tends to appear as a Predator-like haze.
G. Bird Call: Can detatch parts of its feather coating to create small bird Hollows.

For all of Siren's impressive power, it has 2 main weaknesses:

1. It is very difficult to control, even by Hollowfication standards.
2. Siren cannot maintain its form if the Chain of Fate is somehow severed for logner than 5 minutes. It will then take several hours for it to regenerate inside of Noah.

Name: Atsuko Chiryō-shi
Age: 105, but she appears to be around 16 at the most.
Appearance: Atsuko is lightly built with chin length, thick black hair and a pale complexion. She stands at 5'8" and weighs 47kg.

Spoiler:

Type: Soul Reaper.
Bio: Born in London, Atsuko spent her early life as a typical aspiring princess. She never cared much for violence or destruction, and was always very conscious of her own well being and the health of those around her. As a young girl with older brothers, she would take a little first aid kit and follow her brothers to a skate part and apply bandaids and vitamin C whenever she thought it was necessary.
As she grew older and went through school, she took a special interest in medical studies and in her spare time he would often do charity work around her neighbourhood.
When she turned 15, her parents took her and one of her older brothers to Japan for a three week holiday. After a week of snapping pictures of cherry blossoms, temples and mountains, a great earthquake shook Japan. Following close behind the earthquake, a great tsunami decimated the town of Fukushima, causing widespread destruction and death.
With two weeks left in their holiday, they decided that they should go and volunteer at Fukushima and help the needy. Atsuko did not go by the name of Atsuko Chiryo-shi at this time, but the many people in shelters that she would help gave her this as her nickname. When she asked what it meant, the Japanese man who gave her the name, but had a rather shakey grip on the English language told her it meant "beauty healer".
In the beginning of the third week of their holiday and the second week of their volunteer work, a hollow appeared. The soul reaper guarding the many departing souls from Fukushima was overwhelmed by the hollow and destroyed the shelter Atsuko was working at, cutting off one of her legs and crushing her under wreckage.
When she arrived at the Soul Society, Atsuko could remember nothing about herself but her desire to heal and the name "Atsuko Chiryo-shi".
She lived in a poor district of the Rukon for years, trying her hardest to help people live healthier lives and recover from injury, but she was alone in her cause. When she heard about the work Soul Reapers did, she thought that while the work they did was for good but the way it was practised was barbaric. When she heard of the healing and relief squad, she decided that she could do much more for the Soul Society by joining them than staying in the Rukon.
She entered and graduated from the academy but was sorted into the 9th Squad despite her objections. She was told that while her healing skills were suited for her to join Squad 4, her skills as a warrior were too promising to be ignored.
After some years rising through the ranks, she became the fourth seat of her Squad. When Aamon took over and most Soul Reapers were either sent running or killed, Atsuko hid. She hid in a basement under a noblemen's house for a day and a night before coming out and seeking out other Soul Reapers.
Wherever she came across someone that needed tending to, she ended up following around Soi Fon and what remained of her Stealth Force, healing anyone who was injured in their missions.
Abilities: Regular Shunpo, Medium Level Reiatsu, Promising Swordsmanship, Medium Level Kido.
Power: Shikai- "Blush and Bloom, Hana no Hīrā". The fingerguard and hilt turn to black goo, stretching into a long, thorned vine and wrapping around the wielder's arm before turning to a real thorned vine and sinking into her arm. The blade itself glows bright red before morphing into a blooming, literally shining rose that sits in the wielder's palm.
Out from the centre of the rose, four thin but tough as steel (literally) tentacles extend to a length of up to ten metres. These tentacles are a much brighter red than the rose.
Shikai Abilities: 1) Healing Power - the thorns suck up small amounts of spiritual pressure which then go to the rose where they are converted to a kind of "aura" with healing effects and are fed through the tentacles which emit the reiatsu-fueled healing aura. This can heal minor exterior injuries and large scale interior injuries depending on the amount of reiatsu sacrificed by the wielder. This ability can not regrow a limb or an organ.
2) Reiatsu Draining Ability - if the tentacles latch onto an opponent, they can be made to absorb spiritual pressure. The higher the level of spiritual pressure, the faster the tentacles will absorb it and the harder they will hold on.
3) Reiatsu Strike - if the tentacles are fed large amounts of reiatsu but are not made to emit their healing aura, they can convert the spiritual pressure into a highly dense blue energy beam similar in strength to a level 35 Hado fired from each tentacle.

Other: She dislikes fighting any more than is absolutely essential (like purifying Hollows).

It's like a Lilith/Kyoujin hybrid.

And by that I mean it's awful. And that hair is not chin length.

Nearly. Anyway, I have no interest in your opinion, since you never seem to be able to say anything constructive.

Stop ripping shit off is fairly constructive.

Her Zanpakuto is meant to be similar to both Hanataro's Zanpakuto and Yumichika's, but it is considerably less powerful than both.
I'm not claiming it as totally original. It'd be impossible to make one that was.

Wanna bet? 10 bucks says I could make a shinigami that wasn't a rip off of Neo's characters, or someone else's.

Implying that this girl is a ripoff of any of Neo's characters? And I don't see the problem. I have used this in another RP before and it was accepted (Although the owner did kind of say "You do realize that's seems a lot like Hanatoro right?").

The flower thing is Lilith, the tentacles are Senthose. It isn't hard to draw connections.

I even mentioned Lilith before you herped the derp.

I guess it really won't matter to you guys that I had the rose and thorns idea a while ago when I saw some charity poster, will it? And the tentacles are less like octopus tentacles and more just... long snake like heheh things sticking out of a flower.

Dammit, I made these sign-ups last night, but my internet screwed up and erased it all.

Name: Ash Lancaster
Age: 13 (Visual)/479 (Actual)
Appearance:

Spoiler:

Type: Shinigami
Bio: He grew up in a part of Rukongai where he basically had to fend for himself, which gave him the idea that killing was okay. This explains how he got his i-love-murdering-people personality.
One day, when he was around the age of 11, he caught the attention of the current Kenpachi at that time, who convinced him to become a Shinigami. Being intellectually privelaged, Ash completed his studying at the academy one year faster than the average student and is now in the Gotei 13, Squad 11.
Abilities: Great swordsmanship, but he's not too good at Shunpo, and sucks at Kido. His Spiritual Pressure is about average.
Power: Shikai--Slice, Urikai.
Ash's shikai focuses greatly on the element of lightning, sending a small electric jolt through the enemy every time the blade touches them. Since his blade is medium-sized and lightweight, it can be thrown short distances, and will immediately return to Ash like a boomerang. However, the sword can also lengthen two more feet at most, so that it is roughly the size of a normal sword. He has not yet achieved bankai.
Looks like this.
Hollowfication: Ash's hollow mask is white, black, and red, and looks similar to a jester's mask, with black triangles framing the eyes and a red strip going across the mouth.
When Hollowfied, Ash is able to jump great distances and produce much larger amounts of electricity from Urikai. He is even able to send out a blast of lightning-ish energy towards the enemy (sort of like a Getsuga Tensho).
Other: Sadistic, cruel, bloodthirsty, uncaring, merciless, cold, borderline-insane, and all that other stuff you'd expect from an anti-hero.

That guy. Anti-Hero.

Pffthahaha!

Now that I've had some sleep, I realize there's a problem with both of these characters: I don't know what they were doing when Aamon was out herping the derp.

My suggestion for Potter's character is that he lived through Aamon infecting half of the Seireitei with Hollowfication. It'd also be nice to know what rank he was before & after that.

Loki, you realize part of the reason you're being accused of ripping stuff off is because it's sort of been a pattern, right?

Starrk with Kira's Bankai
Lilith or Ukitake, also with Kira's Bankai
Ulquiorra with the energy spear

Yes, I realize that it's hard to make something truly "original," but this is bordering on the edge of what could be considered coincidence.

The only thing from that list I admit is quite a rip off is Kira's energy spear. I don't know what I was thinking then. This is a LOT more original than that.

But then you really can't be pointing fingers for ripping people off.

Byakuya with Lilith's flower petals.

Runuganga with Venezuala's sand control.

And I'm quite certain you took most of your ideas for Taiyo's Zanpakuto from Kaien Shiba's.

Oh, by the way, I forgot to enter what she was doing in Aamon's time. I'll do that now.
