My name is Nagi. I used to read Animorphs in Elementary and it was one of my favorite series. I guess I'm partially responsible for why this place is here *chuckles meekly* I hope I can make really good stuff.

- Kenjū's idea of mercy

Kenjū Hō (砲 拳銃 Hou Kenjuu) is a Plus who left the Soul Society for the World of the Living.

Appearance
Kenjū bears the appearance of a young teenage girl with bright red eyes and short bright red hair. During her time in the Soul Society, she wore the standard outfit they wear there. Upon returning to the World of the Living, she (surprisingly) stole the outfit of a wandering Plus, which consists of a white shirt, tie, black skirt, thighhighs, and shoes.

Personality
Kenjū is a generally a calm, easygoing young girl who wants nothing more than to have things go her way. She likes to be out on her own, in the World of the Living. She sees the Rukongai as distasteful. While she is generally an easy person to be around, when she becomes annoyed or wants to fight, she's very trigger-happy, using the gun she possesses to shoot up the object of her displeasure. Her brief visit to the Soul Society made her confident that it was not the actual afterlife, and that there is something more out there, maybe even a God.

History
Kenjū was born a normal girl in Okinawa. She grew older, and attended school, earning average grades. Sometime before getting into High School, Kenjū acquired spiritual powers, but had very little control over them at first. Whenever she would go to school, during any free time she had, she would try and pratice with her powers, finding them difficult to manage.

Kenjū was kidnapped shortley after her high school graduatation. During this time, she was raped and beaten. But she eventually managed to kill two of her captors with her power. However, a third knocked her out and eviscerated her, which was, of course, fatal. When she died, she wandered as a Plus, encountering several Hollows and managing to kill them and survive, before she was guided into the Soul Society.

Knowing she was heading to the afterlife, Kenjū expected something that was borderline paradise, but was extremely dissapointed to find that the Rukongai where she stayed was not the afterlife she had envisioned. Eventually, she left the Soul Society, killing the two of the guards who guarded a royal family's Senkaimon, and traveled through the Dangai to get back to the World of the Living. Kenjū, after gaining mastery over her spiritual powers and learning to corporealize herself, know seeks to kill the man who killed her.

Powers and Abilities
Corporealization: Kenjū possesses the unique ability to give herself corporeal form as a "plus". Similar to a Jibakurai, she dwells on the Earth due to some unfinished business, however, she takes it to a different level. This power grants her the ability to the ability to become tangible, to form a solid, touchable body that can be felt, seen and heard, something uncommon for a plus.

Disguise: Due to the fact that she is supposed to be dead, she's created a "disguised" form for when she corporealizes, masking her appearance voice, and she even acts different, shyer. However, she can drop the guise at anytime she pleases.

Spiritual Power: It is unknown exactly how much spiritual power Kenjū possesses, but she possesses enough to pour it into a weapon and fight for an extended amount of time.

Marksmanship: Kenjū uses a gun as her main weapon, and while not having been taught to use it, she is very skilled with it, able to hit even small moving targets with the smallest "bullets". She has an odd habit of aiming for her targets legs first, and then proceeding to finish them off how she pleases.

Enhanced Speed: While it is unknown exactly what she uses to enhance her speed, Kenjū is faster than the normal plus or human, being able to keep up with a powerful Shinigami's Shunpo.

Enhanced Durability: Due to being dead, and having spiritual power, Kenjū is more resilient than a human, able to take much more damage than a human could sustain.

Special Ability
Kenjū's special ability is Reishi Nagare (霊子流れ ,Spirit Particle Flow). This allows her to pour spirit energy into any weapon to increase it's power and give it unique properties. Her most common method is using her gun, a black M1911 .45 pistol, which she pours the energy into the gun and uses them as bullets. This basically creates a gun with "unlimited" ammunition, giving her no need to reload it. She can charge her shots or fire a barrage of "bullets" as she pleases. She states that she can make her energy flow into just about any object, not limited to weapons. She is also able to absorb spirit particles and spiritual attacks, much like a Quincy, and add it to her overall power. The special attacks she creates all have Italian names.

Pallottola (弾丸 (気迫弾),Parurotsutora; Italian for "Bullet". Japanese for "Spirit Bullet"): Kenjū's most basic technique, it simply involves shooting spirit energy from her gun at varying amounts of strength, size, and power. All of her following techniques that involve guns are variations of this.


 * Genocidio (大虐殺 (大量殺人), Jenosidio; Italian for "Genocide", Japanese for "Bloodbath"): A technique used mainly for taking out multiple opponents, she fires a straight beam of energy from her gun, which then "branches" into multiples tendrils that seek out opponents she targets and pierces their hearts, killing them.


 * Dentro e fuori (デントロ エ フオリ, Dentoro E Fuori; Italian for "In and Out"): One of Kenjū's more difficult moves to pull off, but also one of her most powerful. She places the tip of her gun to any spot on her opponent's body, and fires an microscopic piece of spirit energy into her opponent's bloodstream. This piece attaches to a cell, and as that blood cell circulates, once it is pumped into the heart, the heart's "pumping" causes the cell, and the spiritual energy, to explode, destroying the heart and killing her opponent.


 * Mitragliatrice (無限弾丸 (ミトラグリャトライス), Mitoraguriatoraisu; Italian for "Machine Gun", Japanese for "Infinite Bullet"): Kenjū releases from her pistol a powerful barrage of reiatsu bullets. These blasts are large, powerful, and very fast, capable of blasting through metal with little problem. She is also able to use a smaller variation of this technique, firing bullets that hit like needles.

Quotes

 * "Lasciate Ogni Speranza Ch'Entrate!" (Abandon all hope, all ye who enter here.)

Stubborn to the point of foolishness.." - Darknesslover5000

"Seireitō Kawahiru... That man is impossible to beat. You'd need an army of Head-Captain Level Shinigami just to land a decent injury"

- Ahatake commenting Seireitō.

Ahatake "Noriko" Kurosaki (黒幸唖畑典濃, Kurosaki Ahataki-Noriko) is a Fanon character of the Bleach series by Tite Kubo. He is a Human who gained Shinigami powers through an encounter with a Hollow. He is a main character in all of Darknesslover5000's stories.

Appearance
At first appearance, Ahatake possesses tanned skin and golden eyes, with dark black hair. As a human though, his eyes were blue. Ahatake generally wears a white shirt and black pants, but alternates between that and a Shihakusho. He has messy black hair and his eyes have dark lines around them, giving him the appearance of one who needs some serious sleep. He appears to be at least 19, though his actual age can be assumed to be over 100 at least. He grew it hair out long, but eventually cut in early in the Yuurei Arc to a spiky style with one long bang over his face, covering his left eye. For the majority of this arc, he wears a high-school suit-esque for his job. Later, in the False Utopia Arc, he wears an outft very similar to Aizen, consisting of a white shirt with a white jacket over neath, both having raised collars, a black sash, white hakama, black tabi and waraji. His Zanpakutō is within the sash.

Personality
Ahatake, personality-wise, is hyperactive and rambunctious; he is typically exuberant, easily excitable, impulsive, and tends to be an embodiment of short attention span. Furthermore, he is obviously identified as an easily-angered man. He tends to develop annoyance for those who serve no use to him, and refuses to change the way he operates. According to Hikaru, Ahatake is someone who learns through his body. Seireitou also identifies Ahatake's personality type and fighting style as being a power type (types that are best suited to charging straight in) and are best effective in battle when sent in first, in the front to clear a path through the enemy's defensive line, making a way in after them for the rest of the team. While raw power is one of his strengths, Ahatake has begun to learn in recent chapters of his training that it is something that he needs to temper with focus in order for it to become truly effective.

As an extension of his naivety, Ahatake has a number of childish traits. In many cases, one can almost say that Ahatake is more child than man. Seireitou has compared Ahatake and his son, Suzaku Kawahiru, to be very similar in terms of arrogance.

History
Under ALOTTA construction

Ahatake was born on February 27th, as the son of Kaemon Kurosaki and Gikeko Kurosaki. A few years after Ahatake's birth, his sister Akiko was born (to a different woman). As a child, Ahatake was closer to his mother than he was to his father, his reason is that his father gave him "bad vibes", later explained that he feared his father's vast spiritual energy.

During his normal childhood years, Ahatake attended school like any other child. His grades were mediocre, and he constantly spent time in the library, reading whatever books he found interesting, his preference lying in manga. He was trained by his father whenever Kaemon could pry Ahatake away from Gikeko.

No Arc
Ahatake made his debut in Training a Young Shinigami: Ahatake's Training. His inner Hollow was getting closer and closer to taking over his body completely, Ryan Getsueikirite appeared in the sky's out of the Senkaimon Gate. Ahatake immediately ran to him and demanding to know why he was exuding such powerful spiritual pressure. The man explained that he was, like Ahatake himself, a Vizard. The captain then began to explain the two states of a Zanpakuto to Ahatake, Shikai and Bankai. When asked if he knew his Zanpakuto's name, he was puzzled. Ryan said that he would teach Ahatake to communicate with his Zanpakuto, and his first etst was to cut two bells off of Ryan's belt with his sword. Donning his Hollow Mask, Ahatake quickly agreed. Ryan released his Zanpakuto, Butaimaru, as a demonstration to Ahatake, and explained that Ahatake could not communicate with his Zanpakuto because the boy was too Hollow-like. Cracking his mask, Ahatake tried to focus on his blade as the captain attack his again and again with bursts of water. A voice called to Ahatake from the blade, and Ahatake responded to it, calling out it's name, Hinote. Ryan, congratulating his student on achieving Shikai, then release his Bankai. Focusing on his Zanpakuto, it's spirit was revealed to be that of a flaming Dragon. He released his first named attack, the Enen Wangetsu, a mass of flaming energy. Before he could continue with his next move, however, his inner Hollow flashed across his mind and Ryan, in that instant, knocked him unconscious.

Ahatake awoke inside the Reiji Maigo, where Ryan told him he would be trained by Seireitou. The man sprung at Ahatake, firing a Cero at him, which Ahatake managed to deflect, thanks to his sword. He explained to Seireitou that to him, fighting is a game, calling it a "simple game of chess". Seireitou proceeded to ask Ahatake if Seireitou was to kill him right then and there, would he have lost a game, or his own life. Ahatake replied, saying it would depend on whether he went down having fun or not. Seireitou then shattered Ahatake's Zanpakuto, and stated people like Ahatake anger him and punched a hole through Ahatake's chest. The youth fell to the ground, blood seeping out of his chest. Seireitou proceeded to walk away, Ahatake's wound healed as his inner hollow proceeded to take over. Seireitou however, suppressed it with the Forbidden Kido: Horokyuusha. Restoring Ahatake's Zanpakuto to normal, he agreed to train the boy, assuming he had learned that life is not a game. Seireitou said that he was going to turn Ahatake into an Xiāochú, a special kind of Vizard who are able to fuse their Hollow and Zanpakuto spirits together. He instructed Ahatake to shatter his Zanpakuto, and stab his own heart with a decent fragment. Ahatake did as was instructed and his heart ceased to beat. However, a large pillar of black reiatsu soon rose from the corpse and Ahatake awoke, perfectly alive and with increased power. Seireitou instructed him to use Shikai, and said the release command would come to him. After the Shikai transformation, which donned his Hollow mask without his conscious thought, he entered the Bankai state, an usual state for him, as it made him look rather like an Arrancar.

Ahatake decided to test out his power against his teacher, and went all-out against him, but the silver-haired man was far stronger than Ahatake, which made his efforts useless. However, a new person appeared before the two.

The man was Hikaru "Shadow" Kurosaki, who volunteered to take Ahatake off of Sei's hands. Ahatake was becoming increasingly annoyed with the constant changes in his teachers, and his initial relationship with Kuro did not start out so well. Kuro constantly remarked on Ahatake's lack of focus, which did nothing to improve it, actually making it worse, as he goaded Ahatake into reckless attacks. His casual attitude only made it worse, however, in a fit of blind rage, Ahatake managed to land the hit he needed to pass the first test. After a resting period, Ahatake began to train to learn the Āoshǎn. It took a relatively short time to learn the Āoshǎn and then he learned the Wúpiào technique. Before completing Dàn however, Ahatake left in frustration, thus becoming an incomplete Xiāochú.

Yuurei Rebellion Arc
Ahatake's first appearance in this arc was in Uproot! Enter Yuurei! where he, along with the rest of his family, moved to the Yuurei Oukoku, at the request of his daughter. Upon their arrival, he got into an argument with the Yuurei Police Officers, due to a refusal to give up his Zanpakuto. He gave in however, along with the rest of his family. This was followed by yet another row with an officer over directions to his house. Upon making it to his house and retrieving his weapon (along with the rest of the family) he visited Ryuka, where they discussed Yuurei in general and the reasons they were there.

In Destined to Adapt, or Doomed to Despise?. Ahatake began to suspect that there were watching his family, a kind of omen he couldn't quite shake off. He talked to Taiki about it, who confirmed his suspicions.

In Yuurei: The Invalid Torture, Ahatake discussed job options with Tereya, worried his wife would be thrown into prison for lack of employment. It was a short argument however, as it ended in Tereya storming out. Later, Ahatake saw on the news reports of a massacre and he immediately knew who it was. Rushing to her aide, he met Suki, Ardish, and Damian Seken who demanded he hand over Tereya to be executed. Ahatake refused and quickly donned his Hollow mask, firing a cero at the man, only to have the officers repel it. Ahatake was quickly assailed by bullets and, unable to protect Tereya, she was shot by Damian using Suki's pistol. Before he could retaliate, the three vanished, along with Tereya's corpse and the remaining soldier. Ahatake let out a scream of fury attracted his son to the scene. His mask shattered as he explained to Taiki what happened. They went to Ryuuka Injiki's dwelling to tell Midoriko and Ryuka. Taiki blamed Ahatake for letting his love of battle get the better of him, and Ahatake punched his son in the face, fiercely stating that he should not blame him for Tereya's death. He let his son walk out and Ryuuka stated that Tereya may not be dead at all, since Ahatake was distracted being under fire. This lightened Ahatake mood considerably. He left the dwelling, his eyes shockingly still Hollowfied. It is unknown if this signifies anything.

Despite not appearing in the The Resistance! Underground Training! chapter, Ahatake was mentioned by Tereya, who described their history together.

In Grief: The Ultimate Change of Heart, Ahatake and the rest of the family, minus Taiki and Adela, are attending the funeral of Tereya, whom they believe to be dead. He was reflecting on his earlier discussion with Ryuka, who voice the scenario of Tereya still being alive. Ahatake was the last one to speak at Tereya's funeral, stating that he believed himself responsible for her death, as Taiki had mentioned previously. After the funeral, he discovered his hollowfied eyes, but merely made light of them. When Kyuui asked if he would help them find Taiki, he harshly refused, but was later revealed to have followed Aoi and Kyuui. After getting into a brief argument with his son, he left, only to be met with a blow to the face, as payback for the one he had given Taiki. Returning home, he told Kyuui he "ran into a pole" though she didn't believe him. Later he got into yet another argument with his son, due to his lack of trust in him, and Aoi and Kyuui stumbled upon Taiki stating that he wished his wife had died when he tried to kill her. Ahatake quickly ushered them out, and Ahatake stated that Taiki should tell him what the book he was reading was, for he could be planning to "kill them all" and after Taiki explained what the book was, Ahatake left.

Ahatake's role in The Mutual Ally: The Juushin Resistance was not major. Adela arrived to tell Ahatake how she had been questioned on Tereya's whereabouts and the possibility of Tereya being alive. Ahatake agreed, and when Taiki suggested they search, Ahatake said Tereya could have been in a building of Seiki Seiki, which would make finding her more difficult. After Aoi and Kyuui came back from fetching Midoriko, and told them family to follow them, as someone said he had Tereya. Ahatake, after Kyuui and Aoi, blew away an amount of soldiers fighting Juushin's army with a particularly large cero. After following Juushin down to meet Tereya, Ahatake stated he was feeling off, a feeling coming from his wife. This was later explained as slight fear at her new spiritual power. Ahatake then decided to have his family become allies of Juushin and his group.

In Reclaiming What Was Lost: Siblings Of The Sword, Ahatake, Tereya, Aoi and Kyuui went to visit Smirnov Seishou, due to Tereya missing her brother. Ahatake formed a garganta and created a pathway of dark, foul reishi for the rest to follow. When they arrived in the World of the Living, Ahatake noted that it was harder to breath in the World of the Living than it had been before, due to a lack of reishi in the air. When they arrived at Smirnov's, after Ahatake introduced Aoi and Kyuui to the man, Ahatake said that Tereya had been missing her brother which is why they visited. At dinner, Ahatake and Tereya had a "discussion", telling Smirnov about the events in the Yuurei Oukoku. When Mizuko Yumi commented on Ahatake's eyes and Hollow-like spirit energy, Ahatake remembered how difficult it was to breath in the World of the Living and concluded that he may be becoming more Hollow-like.

In Just Like Old Times: The Resistance's Confrontation!, Ahatake was shown using similar reishi control to Tereya's, though his was darker. He stated it was how he released pent up Hollow energy, though it did not work how he intended. Chidori later alerted both Ahatake and Tereya to the soldiers presence in the Yuurei Base. Tereya leaving ahead of them, Ahatake and the twins followed Chidori and consequently ran into soldiers. Ahatake demonstrated his Zanpakuto's power by using the Meidou Wangetsu on the soldiers, and the proceeded to enter the battle zone. When told Tereya was off battling Damian Seken, he rushed off, believing she needed his aide. When Damian continued to taunt Tereya, Ahatake denied none of what he said, and after Damian killed himself, Tereya, in a furious rage, told Ahatake their relationship was over.

During the events of Acceptance! Those Feelings, Ahatake played the part of the Resistance's main fighter. Before the battle he walked out for fresh air to contemplate Tereya'a departure, before being informed by Ryuka that the battle would soon commence and he would be needed. He quickly returned to the base to wait for nightfall, where he met up with Tereya, who had returned to help fight. When the battle started Ahatake quickly entered his Resurrección, and began destroying the oncoming missiles. He quickly turned to begin fighting soldiers, and despite superior power, the soldiers had numbers and armor and Ahatake was forced to utilize his least used technique, the Meidō Wanegtsu, and suck them into the Garganta. After defeating the waves of soldiers, his Resurrección breaking, and Juushin defeated the solidiers the King had pitted against them, Ahatake and Juushin burst into the throne room and engaged the King in battle. Despite their combined power, the King proved to be stronger than them both and they were forced to release their Shikai. The king released his own Shikai and created a new dimension within the castle. Ahatake noticed something that the man was hiding however, his Zanpakutō's ability to control time, as well as space. Ahatake formulated a plan of attack, using Juushin as a distraction, while he attacked Seiten from behind with a burst of flames. However, the king protected himself from this attack, and Juushin, forced to utilize a level 99 Kidō, had collapsed. Ahatake mustered up the last of his strength, combining the Sōkatsui Spell with his own Cero, obliterating the King. Encountering Tereya for a last time, Ahatake took Juushin outside of the castle where they were both healed by Jin Sei. He agreed later to the suggestion for Juushin to take the throne.

In, The Water Extinguishes Her Fire: Kiri and Kuro, Ahatake encountered Megami Kirisaki while on the beach. He started up a conversation with her, and before he left he asked he for a date, feeling something about her was right for him. When he returned home, he had a brief argument with Taiki, and told Aoi and Kyuui about his new "girlfriend", Kyuui was far from pleased, something that did not faze Ahatake too much. The next day, Ahatake woke up early and went to sit in the living room, and again had an argument with his son, concerning Taiki's attitude towards his wife and the rest of them, before he went to dress for the date. Ahatake left to meet up with Megami, and their date began with Ahatake taking them to a French Resturant, Les frères heureux. It was revealed here that Ahatake possesses minor knowledge of the French Language, enough to translate their menu and place his order in French. After dinner, he took Megami to meet his family, and then returned to the beach where they had met.

Equipment
Riyūhōchō (理由包丁, Reason Carving Knife): One of the only devices capable of harming Reason, this knife was created by Ahatake's mother. It uses an energy she dubbed Giji Riyū (疑似理由, Psuedo Reason), that imitated reason to an extent, but is just as manipulatable as Reiatsu. Due to it's "reason properties", it can cut through reason very easily, though it's supply is limited, and it takes the form of a hunting knife.

Powers & Abilities
Vast Spiritual Power: After training in Hueco Mundo for just one month, Ahatake's spiritual pressure has peaked to explosive amounts. Similar to the likes of Sōsuke Aizen, Ahatake can crush beings weaker than himself with his spiritual pressure and can cause them bodily pain, though this has to be forced and concentrated. As a Vizard, he possesses dual type part Shinigami and Part Hollow; but has since merged and become more stable upon becoming an Xiāochú. As Ahatake continues to train, his spiritual pressure only becomes stronger and it is colored orange in shikai, though blue in Bankai. As mentioned by a few and shown when manifesting a pathway inside a Garganta, Ahatake has very dark and evil spiritual pressure, akin to that of a Hollow or an Espada. Despite this, when it manifests, it appears as multicolored flame.

Flash Step Master: One of Ahatake's most notable traits is his speed. He can move quite fast, even being considered on par with that of Shunsui Kyōraku, a former Gotei 13 Captain and current Royal Guard Marshal. By using flash step and putting spirtual pressure into either his foot or fist he can create a fast and painful punch guaranteed to send an enemy flying.

Hand-to-Hand Skill: Ahatake has boxing and wrestling experience and has hand to hand combat ability to match the Punishment Force. Despite prefering his swordsmanship over martial battle, Ahatake continues to train in order to keep it as a fall-back should his sword break or prove useless.

Master Swordsmanship Specialist In battle, Ahatake's Zanpakuto are his main weapon. When he was younger, he wasn't as experienced as some Shinigami, thought he has gotten considerably better. As a child, he has had sword training as a child, being pressed by his father to learn; this indicates that he has enough experience to use a sword without harming himself. Ahatake is pretty experienced with his Zanpakutō, and seems to have some sort of a bond with it. When Seireitou broke it, he felt abandoned without it. After obtaining a second Zanpakuto, Ahatake became capable of wielding them both (in their sealed states) in either hand, hinting that he is ambidextrous. He typically fights using his wakizashi as a means of blocking an attack, and his kodachi for attacking due to it's longer reach.

Kidō Practitioner: Ahatake has limited use of Kidō as he isn't an official Shinigami, he never received formal lessons, but his sister has shown him how to use Kidō so he has a basic understanding. His skill leaves alot to be desired however. An interesting thing to note about Ahatake's Kidō prowess is that he cannot preform it wil through personal whim, but when fighting on pure instinct, his Kidō can end up doing massive damage. According to Seireitou, however, his skill is still crude. He has shown the ability to combine his Kidō with his Cero, creating a far stronger attack.

Keen Intellect: Despite his intelligence generally being downplayed throughout the series, Ahatake is shown to have good intuition, and is an expert at fighting despite receiving no formal training, being able to come up with plans in the midst of battle. He is also shown to be creative with his attacks, performing a Kidō-Cero combination at the least second to increase his attacks lethal potential.

Flame Manipulation: Even without his Zanpakutō, Ahatake is shown to have great affinity for flame control, being able use them in standard attacks, augument his physical blows, and was shown to create a shield of extremely dense black flames to use as a shield, though it seems to be tiring. He is also capable of a strange form of teleportation, which he calls Flaming (フレイミング Furemin). He is also capable of absorbing flames to heal himself and increase his spiritual energy.

Zanpakutō
''This Zanpakuto is in the making. To see the Zanpakuto Ahatake is currently using, go to the history and click August 7, 2010.''

Ryūseiga (竜牙, "Dragon Fang") is the name of Ahatake's Zanpakutō, which takes the form of a standard sized katana with a black handle and and blood-red sheath. The guard has two curved extensions from its long sides, which are designed with small Chinese Dragons. His Zanpakuto Spirit takes the form of well-endowed, bespectacled woman with short dark hair, piercing red eyes, who wields a katana similar to her sealed state. Ahatake described her personality as "very similar to Tereya". She constantly refers to Ahatake as bōya (坊や boy) when she speaks to him


 * Shikai: Released by the command Feel your body’s muscles, and its roar, Feel your heart beat as you soar and dive, Feel the control to work the magic, Feel the emotion, love and anger (あなたは不機嫌そうに、ダイビング、お気軽コントロールを魔法のように機能するフィールあなたの体の筋肉が、その轟音は、お気軽心ビートフィール感情、愛と怒り Anata wa fukigen-sō ni, daibingu, o kigaru kontorōru o mahō no yō ni kinō suru fīru anata no karada no kin'niku ga, sono gōon wa, o kigaru-shin bītofīru kanjō,-ai to ikari), Ryūseiga changes from a Katana to a jian, a Chinese straight sword. The blade takes on a black coloration, the handle turns red, and the guard resembles a Chinese Dragon more than before. The blade is very strong, able to cut through various metals with little to moderate effort.


 * Shikai Special Ability: Despite Ryūseiga's usefulness in standard melee combat, it possesses a few special abilities which revolve around energy.

Shōryūha (飛翔竜発破, Soaring Dragon Wave) The Shōryūha is one of Ryūseiga's most powerful attacks. When used, the normally black blade glows blue, and reishi is gathered in a manner so it starts to form into a blue dragon, similar to Hyōrinmaru in Shikai. The dragon is mentally controlled by Ahatake, and as enough power to destroy a Danku shield. When it connects with the victim, it will explode and envelop them as a normal blast would.

Hiryūri (飛散竜裏面 Dragon that flies back): When an opponent unleashes an energy attack, Ahatake can send a twister of energy from his sword, engulfing the opponent's attack and forcing it back at them.


 * Bankai: Tensuryūseiga Tensuryūseiga_Dragon.jpg(天鉄竜牙 Heaven's Iron Dragon Fang): In it's Bankai state, Tensuryūseiga retains it's jian state, but Ahatake's dons a long, scaled cloak, and it summons a large, menacing dragon, resembling a Chinese Dragon in most respects. The dragon has a mind of it's own, but it bends to Ahatake's will.


 * Bankai Special Ability: Ahatake's Bankai revolves around the use of his dragon, but it gain's additional attacks as well.


 * Dragon: Ahatake's Bankai summons a large menacing dragon, which Ahatake calls Ryū (竜 Dragon). The dragon has very durable hide, and has a mind of it's own, though it willingly obeys Ahatake's orders. The dragon constantly exude's vile spiritual pressure, which causes anyone in the vicinity to feel sick and experience fear, though Ahatake seems to be immune to it's effects.
 * Flame: The dragon is capable of letting loose bursts of flame from it's mouth. These flames are uniquely purple colored and can melt even rock.
 * Energy Blasts: The dragon can fire blasts of pure reishi from it's mouth, and they crackle like lightning. This is the dragon's strongest attack and it can be charged and it is difficult to redirect.


 * Ryūho Taihō (竜骨大砲 Dragon Bone Cannon): Tensuryūseiga's ultimate attack. Ahatake swings his blade down, and at the instance of the swing, Tensuryūseiga absorbs his spiritual energy and releases a large sphere of spiritual energy from the tip of the blade. Although it is slow moving, it is very powerful, and explodes upon contact with anything, even Ahatake himself.


 * Ryūnarahi (竜奈落火 Dragon's Hell Fire): Tensuryūseiga's true ultimate attack. Ahatake has recently learned it, and intends to use it against Hiraishin.

Hollowfication
When in Vizard form, Ahatake proceeds to battle ruthlessly, caring less for his own injuries, and more on the battle, much like a berserker. However, Ahatake can still control himself to an extent, and even fine-tune his movements to supplement his attacks. His spiritual power increases drastically and gains access to the Cero Blast, the blast Vizards, Hollows, and Arrancar can use.

Ahatake's inner Hollow is not as malevolent as other Hollow's and is more like the Nine-Tailed Fox, because he lends Ahatake the ability to use his hollow mask without hesitation. But he has an evil, more sadistic side and has stated to Ahatake two things: 1) He will take over Ahatake's body when he's losing a battle and 2) All of Ahatake's power will be his eventually. It is unknown what has happened to him since Ahatake's become an Xiāochú, but it is implied that he still exists.


 * Cero: AhatakeFiringCero-1.jpg Ahatake is very proficient with the cero though his is different from most hollows. He creates a cero with both hands and charges and fires it just like a Kamehameha of Dragon ball fame. His cero is abnormally powerful and can easily level half a city, though only with enough spiritual pressure put into it, and after this he needs to rest a full five minutes before he can use it again. Ahatake soon changed his style however, firing a Cero from his fingertip in the manner similar to a young child pretending to fire a gun. Being a proponent of the Cero, Ahatake has forged the technique to several unique variations.
 * Taladrador Cero (ピアスゼロ, Spanish for Piercer Zero): A Cero fired from the finger tip. It can pierce through nearly anything (excluding Arrancar's Hierro), even being able to pierce through the heart of a target for an instant kill.
 * Espada Cero (ソードゼロ, Spanish for Sword Zero): This is a special Cero unique to Ahatake. It's name means "sword zero" or "zero sword", it's name obviously implying that it is a Cero with awesome cutting power. It's still an energy blast but cuts instead of blasting away.
 * Sangre Cero (血も, Spanish for Blood Zero): It is a special Cero made by Ahatake that uses his blood and energy for power making it stronger than an average cero and blood-red. It is very similar to that of the Espada's Gran Rey Cero.
 * Esfera Cero (球も, Spanish for Sphere Zero): It is another of the unique Cero created by Ahatake. It is a massive circular orb of Spiritual Energy and is fired like a projectile. When it makes contact with an opponent it makes a truly massive explosion. This technique is Ahatake's Hissatsu Waza or desperation move.


 * Enhanced Strength: When wearing the mask, his physical strength is enhcnaced immensely. Though not visibly seen, his power seems to be great enough to break the bones of opponents he faces in battle. However, the Espada remain as an exception to this.


 * Power Augmentation: While wearing the mask, Ahatake's hollow powers supplement his Shinigami powers, giving him a vast increase in both strength and speed. The explanation for this is that since Hollows boost their natural abilities by obtaining spirit power around them, either by absorbing it in its ambient form or devouring it directly from another living being, Ahatake attains power from two separate sources: that from himself (drawn using his Shinigami powers), and that from his immediate environment (drawn with the help of his Hollow powers), allowing him to draw power from both sides. It could even be suggested that the Hollow mask allows Ahatake (like Ichigo) to recapture the energy he constantly leaks into the environment, making him more efficient.


 * Hollow Combat: When Ahatake fights with his mask on his fighting style becomes more instinctive than practiced. The hollow mask also makes Ahatake more ruthless, akin to the battle style of Hollow Ahatake. Throughout the duration the mask is in place, Ahatake has shown less concern for injuries to his person, even going so far as to ignore grievous wounds to continue fighting.
 * Hollow Control: Ahatake has the ability to control Hollows, ranging from Normal Hollows to Adjuchas level Menos. The control starts the moment Ahatake lets out a Hollow-like roar and from that moment on he can control any Hollow who hears that roar like a puppet. It is unknown exactly how he developed such an ability, but Ahatake thinks it is due to his affinity to his Hollow abilities.


 * Mask Shielding: Unlike Ichigo, who's mask shield happened usually against his will, Ahatake's can happen under the will of Hollow Ahatake or if Ahatake deliberately forms a mask and places it inside his Shinigami robes as a shield.


 * Garganta: The power that Hollow's and Arrancar use to go to and from Hueco Mundo. Ahatake has the ability to use the technique. It literally tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and solidified to create a discernible pathway. It was taught to him by his Arrancar equivalent.


 * Instant Regeneration: Ahatake can regenerate almost any part of his body that has been destroyed, minus vital organs such as the brain, heart, etc. He has been shown using this power on numerous occasions.

Demonic Transformation
Formerly an ability available only when Ahatake was aided by the Saikōkyu, he learned to access it later during grueling training. Taping into his latent demonic blood, triggers a transformation. In this state, Ahatake's hair grows out and turns silver and it lengthens, extending down past his back. He gains purple stripes on his face, and longer stripes on his chest, arms and back. His skin darkens as well. In this form he gains the following abilities:


 * Intense Strength: In this form, Ahatake's strength becomes so great, a simple swing of his sword caused a large shockwave, and melee battle against him. With simple pucnhes, he can shatter bones, and he was able to effortlessly toss Hiraishin from the middle of the city into the ocean, which was a great distance away.


 * Immeasurable Spirit Power: Ahatake's Spiritual Power becomes so great, his mere presence caused member's of his family such as Aoi and Kyuui to collapse from the effort of trying to stay on their feet. Hiraishin himself remarked on Ahatake's new power as completely fearsome, and it's pressure was enough to slow down his movements in their battle. In this state, Ahatake's Spiritual Energy is a deep crimson.


 * Enhanced Cero: Due to the power going to his head, Ahatake accessed his Hollow Powers in this state, and an ordinary Cero from his fingertip proved to be enough to annihilate half of the Yūrei Ōkoku, and was too much to be absorbed by one of Hiraishin's bodies.


 * Untraceable Speed: Ahatake's speed in this state easily outstrips that of Yoruichi Shihōin the "Flash Goddess" (瞬神, shunshin). When he moves, it is nearly impossible to detect Ahatake's movements until after he has already made them, and by then his opponent would be dead. To the viewer, it appears as if Ahatake simply teleported.


 * Immense Durability: Ahatake's durability has increased to a level where nearly any attack made against him did no damage whatsoever. Ahatake was able to withstand a level 90 Kidō spell with ease, not even showing signs of having been afflicted by it's power.


 * Enhanced Fire Manipulation: Ahatake's dominance over flames increases, though he was only seen using flames once in the form, to create a wall of flame with a simple wave of his hand. In this form, his flames greatly increase, and he is capable of accessing a type of flames he calls White Flames (白火の手 Shira Hinote), different from the black flames he uses as a shied in his normal form. He states that these flames are amongst the hottest that can be used in battle, but are difficult at the moment to control
 * Flame and General Heat Resistance: In this form, Ahatake feels no pain from contact with flames, and all heat based attacks have little to no affect on him, even stating himself that immense heat in this form feels "refreshing".

Former Powers and Abilities
{{hidden|"Click" to show information|

Saikōkyū Implantation (temporary transformation)
Near the end of the Bleach: Ketsurui, an item known as the Saikōkyū merged with Ahatake in an effort to preserve his life. The Saikōkyū is visible, protruding slightly from his neck. With it, he gained the following abilities.

Enhanced Speed: Ahatake's already great speed is enhanced further, to the point where he can overwhelm opponent's like Hiraishin and Aku Yokoshima, who nearly killed him before.

Enhanced Durability: Ahatake's durability increases in this form to the point where he can take more attacks from Hiraishin than he could before, and fight even with many wounds sustained.

Immense Spiritual Energy: In this form, Ahatake's Spiritual Energy increases greatly, shocking even Hiraishin at how much it had expanded.

Zanpakutō
Kaji no Yubiwa (火リング fire ring) is Ahatake's Zanpakutō. It is a constant release type and as such has no release command. Ahatake used to wear it behind his waist but now will most likely wear it on his back. It's spirit takes the from of a fiery black dragon that resides in Ahatake's inner world with his Hollow.


 * Shikai: Ahatake's Zanpakutōu is ALWAYS in it's Shikai form after it's release. It takes the form of a gold sword about as long as Ahatake is tall and has edges on the side like a fang.
 * Shikai Special Ability: Ahatake's Zanpakutou controls fire and can create it's own fire or manipulate the fire of an opponent to an extent.


 * Enkou Wangetsu (激しい三日月 flame crescent): Ahatake's first offensive Zanpakutō attack sending a mass of flames at the opponent in the form of a crescent. It's power varies depending on the amount of spiritual pressure put into it and whether or not Ahatake is wearing his hollow mask.

Xiāochú Powers & Abilities
Since training under three different people, Ahatake has since become an Xiāochú. He never really mastered all of the abilities due to his impatience and dissapointment at not being taught Garganta.
 * Āoshǎn: The Xiāochú equivalent to a cero. It has become one of Ahatake's most used techniques and it is fired from the finger.
 * Wúpiào: The Xiāochú equivalent to Flash Step. Ahatake seems to be proficient with it though not to the level he was with Flash Step.
 * Dàn: The Xiāochú equivalent to Bala. Ahatake knows how to use it, but seems to Prefer the Āoshǎn, it's slower but more powerful variant.

Kuǎnwánguó (窾王國膕 (ロイヤル中空宮殿), kuānuwānuguō; Chinese for "Hollow Kingdom", Japanese for "Royal Hollow Palace") is Ahatake's Zanpakutō that came into being upon his ascension to the level of Xiāochú. In it's sealed state, it takes on the appearance of an average Katana with a black hilt, covered in a simple silver diamond pattern going up and down the hilt. The guard takes on the appearance of two fangs pointing downward, both silver in color.
 * Shikai: Released by the command, "Force my hand at Hell's beckon and Hollowfy me to crush my enemy" (強制的に私の手地獄の合図で、私をホローは私の敵を粉砕する); When in his Shikai form, his Zanpakutō becomes a giant white and black cleaver and he gains his hollow mask and his power increases exponentially.
 * Shikai Special Ability: Ahatake's Zanpakutō can manipulate the element of Fire. It's main ability was nicknamed by Ahatake as Kahōrō (炎ホロー, Flame Hollow). It causes the blade to be bathed in a dense reiatsu that gives off the appearance of flames. The temperature of these flames are hot enough to burn through most substances. Using this main power, Ahatake can manipulate many different techniques from Kahōrō. However, Kahōrō alone can be used in battle and allows Ahatake to send off powerful bursts of flames from the blade or tip, that explode once they land or make contact with the opponent.
 * Enkō Wangetsu: (激しい三日月, Flame Crescent) is a technique used by Ahatake and known by all of those who face him in battle to be his favorite Zanpakutō technique. Forming flames that coat his blade, he can launch it as a cresent-shaped technique that can cause severe damage. The more spiritual energy that Ahatake pumps out, the more damage that opponent(s) will receive on the opposite end.
 * Meidō Wanegtsu: (轟音の三日月, Rumbling Crescent) is Ahatake's newest Zanpakutō application and is performed by combining Garganta with his blade. It creates a crescent-shaped portal that creates a vacuum effect on it's intended target, essentially sucking his enemy into the depths of Hueco Mundo. It goes without saying that since it is, for all intents and purposes, a Garganta. An opponent skilled at manipulating Reishi, however, can protect themselves from falling into the depths of the Garganta emptiness.


 * Bankai: Dǎikuǎnwánguó (歹窾王國膕 (ホロー宮殿威嚇), dāikuānuwānuguō; Chinese for "Evil Hollow Kingdom", Japanese for "Menacing Hollow Palace"); In Bankai, Ahatake's appearance drastically changes, altering his Shihakushō to the color white, as it now resembles an inner hollow's or an Arrancar. His hollow mask changes to include Dragon Horns, taking on a more dragonic appearance than in his base state. He seems to prefer this form due to feeling almost natural. This is a unique trait, as Bankai tend to prove as a stressing release to most, but to Ahatake, he feels a sense of normalcy. He, in his own words, claims that he favors the Bankai form because of his eyes' appearance.
 * Bankai Special Ability: In Bankai, the innate ability of Kahōrō increases further. Kahōrō's flames can be manipulated to any shape, and at any intensity, that is within Ahatake's realm of imagination. One such example of this is the enhanced version of Enkō Wangetsu. When in Bankai, the flames turn blue and have immense temperatures when used.
 * Enhanced Meidō Wanegtsu: In Bankai, the technique takes the form of a complete circle, and its size varies depending on how much Spiritual Pressure is put into it. Otherwise, it's effect is the same but the area of it's sucking power has been increased.


 * Resurrección: Qīyànyú Kuǎnwánguó (攲於焱窾王國膕, Chinese for "The Hollow Kingdom going up in Flames") - Ocultar Sol (隠す太陽, Spanish for "Concealing Sun") is the name of Ahatake's ressurecion. It transforms him into the steriotypical appearance of Vasto Lorde. He is tall, thin, and humanoid with a mask with dragon horns, keeping his Bankai mask. He also grows wings enabling flight, which can doule as shields against weak reiatsu-based attacks.
 * Black Cero: Ahatake's full-power Cero enables the use of a black Cero. It charges normally, but possesses spiraled rings around it when fired, giving it the complex appearance of an Atom. It's destructive power is considerable based on the amount of reiryoku put into it by Ahatake.
 * Regeneration: Like many Hollow, Ahatake can regenerate any part of his body excepting Vital Organs, such as the heart or lungs.

Trivia

 * Ahatake is part German, and speaks the language rather fluently.
 * Ahatake has broken the fourth wall on occasion, most of the time acknowledging the writer's existence.
 * Ahatake's last name, Kurosaki, while being similar to that of Ichigo Kurosaki, is different in terms of translation. Ahatake's Kurosaki:黒幸 can be translated as "Black Fortune", while Ichigo's Kurosaki:黒崎 can be translated as "Black Peninsula".

Quotes

 * "Sanity? I don't recall ever having anything like that!"
 * (To Juushin Igen) "It's finally time. I know I haven't been in this region for as long as you Juushin, or felt this King's oppression for as long, but I am feeling elated at being part of the help on the way to reform."
 * (Referring to his Zanpakutō) "I'm not sure why my Zanpakutō changed. Perhaps it's because I am no longer an Xiāochú."
 * (Ahatake's explanation on Yōkai and Hanyō) "Yōkai are creatures who reside in hell. From my knowledge, they were formerly Hollows, but were experimented on until they changed drastically and became their own species. I recently discovered that my mother was half-demon, which makes myself and my children and grandchildren part demon as well. Demon's vary in appearance and abilities. The more humanoid a demon is, the higher up in the rankings they are, and the more powerful abilities they have. For example, my family is the descendant of a high leveled flame yōkai, and as such we can generally access many flame-like abilities, though Taiki, Midoriko, Aoi and Kyuui have yet to show such ability, they do possesses it. The demons we just destroyed were low leveled, and possessed generic demonic abilities. Some high level demons can even have Zanpakutō, but in place of a Bankai, they have a Demonic Release, which is similar to a Ressurección."
 * "So you two just signed me up for some sort of quest to face the challenges of spirits that I never knew existed, for a 'boon' that I never asked for, and now if I don't face that challenge, I'm going to have a GOD angry at me?"=

- Dyan

Dyan Arashi (ぢおんヂオン Arashi Dyan) is a Wandering Shinigami who fled the Soul Society. He possesses the same Zanpakutō as Ichigo Kurosaki and Kento Tensei, the Zanpakutō Zangetsu.

Appearance
Dyan bears the appearance of a boy in his late teens, with dark black hair with a purple tint, dark blue-grey eyes and fair skin. He is tall and lean, with a slightly muscular build. While in the Gotei 13, he wore the traditional Shihakushō (死覇装; Garment of Dead Souls). But as a Wandering Shinigami (放浪死神 Hōrō Shinigami), he wears a loose, black and purple kimono and traditional Japanese wooden sandals (geta).

Personality
Dyan is very loud, talkative, and hyper-active around friends, but can become the complete opposite when around people he does not know, or in front of a crowd. He is not fond of exercise in any form, but he loves to train and shouts down anyone who says training and exercise are similar. Dyan is a very stubborn individual and does not like to be given orders, which was a problem for him while he was in the Gotei 13 and he is indifferent to correction.

Dyan possesses a minor sense of formality, addressing most people with honorifics, though there are exceptions. He enjoys reading books, be it manga or novels, and has skill in drawing. He also enjoys the technology of the human world, such as video games and the internet. His favorite pastime however, is fighting strong opponents.

History
Dyan was born into the Rukongai (流魂街 wandering soul city) originally under the name Nagi Arashi, though upon entering the Shinō Academy he changed it. Dyan was born blind in his right eye, an affliction no one else in his family shared. He was born in the first district, Junrinan and grew up living a solitary life with his parents and sister, usually reading or drawing, which were his favorite hobbies as a young child. As he grew older, he learned that he had high spiritual power, and even before he entered the Shinō Academy, he began learning to use his powers, typically for personal gain, like getting food and other such necessities, but he would also use them for amusement, which ranged from creating various colored lights, to attacking small animals and other children. During whatever free time he had, he enjoyed spending it with his sister.

He entered the Shinō Academy at a young age (by Soul Society standards) around the same time as his sister, and it was there he changed his name from Nagi to Dyan. In his classes, despite his high marks in the practical courses, in actual studying courses, Dyan often daydreamed and was scolded by his teachers for it. In the Academy he learned her had a knack for Kidō, possibly due to his use of his spiritual power as a young child. He graduated without ever learning his Zanpakuto's name and was admitted into the 11th division, where he could express his love of fighting.

During a mission in the World of the Living, Dyan was attacked by a Gillian Level Arrancar. In a futile battle against it, he was nearly killed. When the Arrancar could finish the blow with a Cero, Zangetsu appeared before Dyan. He asked Dyan if he had lost his will to fight, and if he really intended to die there. Dyan did not know who he was, and at first did not answer. Zangetsu turned to leave, saying if Dyan would not speak then it meant he could not decide. Dyan cried out he wanted to live, and Zangetsu told him to call out his name. He released his Zanpakutō, the blade becoming the glorious Black and Whit cleaver that it's Shikai is, and sliced the Arrancar in half with one blow. He fainted however, and awoke in the Central 46 chamber. The Central 46 did not approve of his Zanpakutō, but were willing to let it go when they realized that it's original possessor was human. When Dyan picked up Zangetsu and turned to leave however, a Shinigami rushed into the chamber and told the Central 46 that another Shinigami possessed Zangetsu before Dyan was born, a man by the name of Kento Tensei. Dyan realized what this might mean, and in desperation, released a huge Getsuga Tenshō attack on the Central 46, injuring them all and demolishing the chamber. He fled from the Soul Society to the World of the Living, and even though he now knew others possessed the same Zanpakutō as he, Dyan vowed not to let anyone take away his Zangetsu, and devoted his life to training and becoming stronger.

Powers and Abilities
Master Swordsmanship Specialist: When in battle, Dyan typically uses his Zanpakutō, as his primary mode of battle. He has been shown on various occasions to be able to match a Captain-level opponent blow for blow with his sword and can be considered a swordsmanship specialist.
 * Mikatsuki no mai (三日月の舞 Dance of the Crescent Moon): Combining Dyan's speed with his swordsmanship skill, he charges at the opponent, moving in a peculiar pattern. While the enemy is distracted by his movements, Dyan's take to their back, cutting them cleanly in half.

Flash Step Expert: Dyan has shown himself to be highly proficient in Flash Steps, being able to keep up with Captain-level Shinigami. In Bankai, his speed increases to the point where he can create afterimages of himself uses Flash Step.

Vast Spiritual Power: Dyan has a considerably large amount of spiritual power, and due to this, his Zanpakutō is always in it's release state. Dyan is capable of using raw Spiritual Energy as a shield against attacks, when he creates a spiritual aura of energy, he can use it as an attack, creating whips (some would call them tails) of spiritual pressure to attack. Due to the sheer amount of Spiritual Energy, Dyan is capable of fighting battles for extended periods of time without tiring and can pull off many large scale attacks with energy to spare. His spiritual energy is light green-white in Shikai mode and black with a green outline in Bankai. Dyan has great skill in detecting spiritual pressure as well, due to the need to avoid getting attack on his right side, his blind spot.

Kidō Master: One of Dyan's greatest skills is in Kidō. He possesses spells for healing, binding and destruction, destruction being his preferred choice of spell. In the Academy, his highest grades were in Kidō, and he only continued to hone his skills in Kidō when he joined the 13 Court Guard Squads, despite being placed in a division that looks down on Kidō Expert. He is capable of performing double spells without the incantation.

Zanpakutō
Zangetsu (斬月 Slaying Moon): Dyan possesses the same Zanpakutō as Ichigo Kurosaki, but is quite fond of Zangetsu, even after finding out that another Shinigami possessed it before himself, he did not lower his opinion of his Zanpakutō. When sealed, it looks like an ordinary nodaichi, it's only decoration being the guard, which is round. The spirit of Zangetsu resembles a tall, thirty to forty-year-old man with unkempt facial hair and long ragged black hair. He dresses in tattered all black garbs with narrow sunglasses and a long flowing overcoat that flares out into ragged ends. Zangetsu is depicted as a wise man, but he rarely appears to Dyan at all, excepting occasions where his appearance is necessary. Dyan's inner world is drastically different from Ichigo's. His takes the form of a forest, lit by moonlight.


 * Shikai: Released with the command Shred the Daylight (断片其の Danpen sono chūkō), the Shikai form of Zangetsu looks like an oversized elegant cleaver rather than a formal "katana". It has no tsuba and no proper hilt; what Dyan holds is the cloth-wrapped tang. The sword is fairly large, and has a black blade with a silver edge. The cloth wrapping on the tang seems to react to Dyan's will, changing length at a thought or twining about the blade in an impromptu sheath. When in combat, the cloth falls away when necessary, shrinking back to a manageable size. The cloth can also be used to swing the weapon like a flail and toss it at opponents for mid-range combat, and Dyan seems to enjoy that method of attack. Zangetsu's wide blade is able to be used as a shield from incoming attacks. Unlike most Zanpakutō, which can be sealed into their original form, Zangetsu is always in its Shikai form. It later loses it's constant release status, after Dyan uses the Getsuga Kaimei on Kichirō Getsueikirite.

After his Jinzen training, Dyan's Shikai changed appearances slightly, it's coloring inverting, The blade it now white and the edge is black, the same color as his inner Hollow's Zangetsu. It occasionally emits a strange, purplish reiatsu.


 * Shikai Special Ability: Zangetsu's is largely used for melee combat but possesses one known special ability.


 * Getsuga Tenshō Green_Getsuga.jpg(月牙天衝 Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer): At the instant of the slash Zangetsu absorbs his spiritual energy and releases highly condensed spiritual energy at the tip of the blade. Magnifying the slash attack and then flies forward. This slash takes the form of a light green crescent moon or in the shape of a wave. Getsuga Tenshō is a powerful technique with great force, capable of causing large scale damage. Dyan appears to be talented in the use of the Getsuga Tenshō, deriving several other attacks from it. Unlike Ichigo's attack which is blue and white, Dyan's is dark green and white. Using limited reishi, he can fire a Getsuga Tenshō in short bursts or bolts, which move like lightning and make a noise like thunder. It's weaker than a full powered Getsuga Tenshō, but faster.


 * Shōgetsu (障害月影, Impediment Moon) An new attack first displayed by Zangetsu during Dyan's Jinzen training and later learned by Dyan. When used, energy envelops the blade and the Dyan swings it forward, unleashing a blast of energy that circles around the target when it hits, creating a round spiraling cage of green energy that traps the opponent. While easy to shatter from the outside, it is difficult to escape from the inside.


 * Josei Zangetsu (助成斬月 Assisting Slaying Moon): Using this ability allows Zangetsu to manifest into the real world, and aid Dyan in battle.. Zangetsu is capable of manifesting himself at a distance from his master, able to commune with Dyan despite large distances. Zangetsu is able to manifest his Shikai form and use his abilities independently of Dyan.


 * Bankai: Dyan's_new_Bankai.jpg Tensa Zangetsu (天鎖斬月 Heaven Chain Slaying Moon): It is considered completely out of the ordinary for any Zanpakutō. Unlike most Bankai forms, which usually create some sort of massive creature or effect, Dyan's Bankai actually shrinks his sword down to a daitō (Japanese long sword) with a black blade. The cross guard has four prongs bent out to form the shape of the manji (which is the kanji for "ban," meaning "full", as in "full release"). Instead of the cloth his Shikai form had, a short length of chain with a broken link at the end dangles from the base of the hilt. In addition to his sword, Dyan's attire is replaced by a robe is replaced with a long-sleeved, ankle-length black coat (or shikakusho) with green lining that is closed at his chest, then left to flare out into ragged ends, much like that of Zangetsu himself, and the bottom of a shikakusho. This coat is part of Dyan's Bankai and the damage it can take is directly proportionate to the remaining strength and level of Dyan's Reiatsu.

After his Jinzen Training, Dyan's bankai has changed slightly. While he still maintains the daitō with the black blade, the cross guard has changed to the four prongs expanding out larger from its previous position and while still in the shape of the manji its now abstract stick-like in appearance. Dyan now wears a black glove on his right hand that the sword appears to be attached to as the chain at the base of the hilt has extended extensively and now wraps up the length of his now sleeveless right arm with the additional portion of the chain hanging down.


 * Bankai Special Ability: Tensa Zangetsu much like its Shikai form is used largely for melee combat but possess certain special ability.


 * Enhanced Getsuga Tenshō: Dyan's_Bankai_Getsuga.jpg Zangetsu retains the use of Getsuga Tenshō and can be used in the same manners, but can be used in an enhanced form. When used in Bankai, similar Ichigo's, these potent blasts are black with a green outline around them, but their path can still be controlled, with explosively augmented power and speed.


 * Getsurame (黒月影雨 Black Moon Rain): Usable only in Bankai, Dyan slashes his blade up at the sky, releasing a large blast of black needle-like rods of energy into the sky. Swinging his blade down, the rods rain down on the opponent, piercing them in various places. Dyan can create a maximum of 100 of these, and has limited control over them. The less he creates, the easier they are to control.


 * Kujogetsu (駆除月影 Extermination Moon): Dyan fires a massive amount of reiatsu into the air and it forms a large, floating orb of Getsuga Reiatsu, similar in appearance to a large, full moon. Calling out the attack's name. he swing's his blade down. The orb immediately bursts, splitting into multiple light green "meteors" which rain down onto the opponent. These meteors seem to "home in" on Dyan's target, and cease only when the blast(s) hit something else.


 * Hyper-Speed Combat: Dyan can take all the power of his Bankai and compress it into a small, condensed form. Then he uses the power of the Bankai to perform high-speed combat. In Bankai, his speed is so great, he can create afterimages to confuse an opponent.


 * Enhanced Spiritual Power: In Bankai his already immense spiritual  energy has grandly and explosively increased, and now has a deep black spiritual energy with a dark green outline. After his Jinzen training, both Shinigami and Humans have become unable to feel his reiatsu unless he voluntarily lowers his level and allows them to feel it.


 * Enhanced Bankai Duration: Because his energy is compressed in Bankai, he doesn't expel as much spiritual power as other Bankai and he can remain in Bankai state longer than most Shinigami.


 * Jōshō no Getsuga Tenshō (上昇の月牙天衝 Great Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer): This technique is Dyan's alternative to the "Final" Getsuga Tenshō, taught to him by Tensa Zangetsu sometime after Dyan's second subjugation of his Inner Hollow. This technique allows Dyan to unleash a full power attack without a permanent drawback. Dyan's blade becomes completely immersed in the Getsuga's reiatsu, and the reiatsu spread across his entire body, concentrating mainly on his arms. This "form" allows Dyan to use the Getsuga Kaimei (世界を覆う月牙 World-Covering Moon Fang). Using this technique causes Dyan's powers to seal down to the bare minimum, making his strength less than that of a seated Shinigami.


 * Getsuga Kaimei (世界を覆う月牙 World-Covering Moon Fang): Raising up both arms, all the reiatsu wrapped around Dyan's body is releasing into the sky. Doing this causes the sky to blacken as if thunder clouds were covering it. After calling out it's name, the energy falls down upon the intended target like a bolt of lightning, and an explosion follows. This technique is said to be strong enough to take out two Vasto Lordes Hollows. After this technique is used, Dyan's Zanpakuto reforms, sealing itself back into it's sealed state while his powers recover.


 * Saigo no Getsuga Tenshō (最後の月牙天衝, Final Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer): Dyan's_Final_Getsuga.jpg By using this technique, Dyan becomes the Getsuga (月牙, Moon Fang) itself. It is referred to as the “Final” Getsuga Tenshō because if Dyan used it, he would lose all of his Shinigami powers. For the duration of the ability, Dyan’s hair turns purplish-black, and becomes waist-length. Green bandages form around his body, tightly wrapped around his torso, right arm, and face, ending just beneath his eyes. The remains of a tattered black cloak cover his lower body. In this form, Dyan’s body constantly emits black reiatsu with a green outline (though it's white during the technique's initiation), most of which is focused around his right arm. Being in this form allows Dyan to use Mugetsu; once it is used, the transformation dissipates and Dyan's powers will seal. This effect has been overridden by the Tentōhari.
 * Mugetsu (無月, Moonless Sky): Dyan seemingly generates a blade of dark black energy out of thin air, and grabs it. Doing so brings forth a massive veil of dark greenish-black spiritual energy that covers the surrounding area and darkens the sky, damaging anything caught within the darkness. The energy then recedes, dissipating into the sky.

Hollowfication
Dyan possesses Hollow Powers and as such possesses an Inner Hollow. He is very proficient with his powers, being able to use Cero, Bala, and Sonido, and has been called by his sister a "demi-hollow" on occasion. Exactly how he obtained Hollow Powers is unknown, as this part of his past has never been touched upon.

Hollow Mask: His Hollow mask takes on the form of a menacing skull mask with two thick red stripes running down each side, curving to form a diamond. To access his Hollow powers, Dyan must summon the mask onto his face, which is normally done by placing one of his hands over his face and concentrating spiritual matter on it in order to manifest the mask, summoning the mask in a "ripping" fashion. After the second supression of his Inner Hollow, Dyan's mask has changed. Like his first mask, this mask has a diamond pattern, though black, and the diamond is closed and has been moved up to the forehead. Under the eyes are thick, black lines that give the appearance of tears. With the mask in place, Dyan has access to increased physical enhancements even if he shifts the position of the mask while it is on.


 * Power Augmentation: While wearing the mask, Dyan's Hollow powers supplement his Shinigami powers, giving him a vast increase in both strength and speed. The explanation for this is that since Hollows boost their natural abilities by obtaining spiritual power around them, either by absorbing it in its ambient form or devouring it directly from another living being, Dyan attains power from two separate sources: that from himself (drawn using his Shinigami powers), and that from his immediate environment (drawn with the help of his Hollow powers), allowing him to draw power from both sides.


 * Augmented Getsuga Tenshō: When Dyan wears his mask, the power, speed, blast area, force, and size of the Getsuga Tenshō becomes drastically augmented to the point of seriously harming a foe. While Hollowfied, he has been shown to be able to use his Getsuga Tenshō as a "rope" of sorts, using it to grip opponents and pull them in closer. How this is done is unknown.


 * Hon'yū no Getsuga Tenshō (本有の月牙天衝, Natural Moon Fang Heaven-Piercer): A move that can only be accessed when Dyan is using both his Hollow powers and Bankai. Dyan can absorb reishi from almost any kind of Spirit attack (as Hollows powers also come from the reiatsu in their surroundings), and use it to form a "Natural Getsuga Tenshō". This technique is unique, as there is no limit to how many times it can be performed, due to it not using Dyan's own Spiritual Energy. While using this technique, Dyan's mask designs glow with the energy of the Getsuga.


 * Enhanced Spiritual Power: While wearing the mask, the spiritual power Dyan possesses becomes even greater than before, similar in feel to that of a Hollow.


 * Enhanced Strength: While wearing his mask, Dyan's strength becomes enhanced to the point where he can easily overwhelm all but the most powerful opponents with brute strength.


 * Enhanced Speed: While wearing the mask, Dyan's speed increases to the point where he can overwhelm most opponents, and has been shown using Sonido.


 * Cero: Dyan displays the ability to use Cero while wearing his Hollow mask. It is fired from the masks mouth and has a wide blast radius, being able to take out (or injure) multiple opponents. His cero is emerald green.


 * Bala: Dyan is also able to use a Bala. His Bala, like his Cero, is emerald green and abnormally fast.


 * Hollow Combat: When Dyan fights with his mask on his fighting style becomes more instinctive than practiced. The Hollow mask also makes Dyan more ruthless, akin to the battle style of Hollow Dyan.

Quotes

 * (To Zangetsu) "Zangetsu-san, while what you said may be true, fearful emotions can also be the birthmoment of inspiration."


 * "Central 46? Ah, I remember them. They're the fools who wished to part me and Zangetsu. But didn't I kill them?"

Trivia

 * Dyan's name is the romaji form of my own (Dion) and his personality is based largely on my own.
 * Due to the name of his Zanpakuto and Dyan's preference for nocturnal activity, his friends have taken to calling him Moony (ムーニ Muni).
 * Dyan's theme is Chance by UVERworld

"Fall in a hail of bullets."

- Adela to Lynterria

Adela Kurosaki (くろ さき Kurosaki Adera) formerly Adela Adelina (アデリナ アデラ Aderina Adera) is an Arrancar and husband to Taiki Kurosaki.

Personailty
Adela is a partner to Amparo and his equivalent to a Fracción. Her personality is similar to Ulquiorra's. Adela is a very cold, callous, dispassionate figure, and is rather aloof, brooding, and indifferent, willing to harm both her comrades and enemies should they ever get in her way. She refers to anyone she does not find interesting as "trash" and treats them as expendable. Despite this, she is not particularly violent, unlike most of Arrancar, and will only fight when provoked or ordered by Amparo. After marrying Taiki, she became considerably softer and kinder, possibly due to having children. After Taiki's disappearance, she herself left to go to Hueco Mundo and trained there for months. After returning, her personality was more determined and defiant, and she did not cling to Taiki as she previously had, but was willing to kill him.

Appearance
Adela wore cheerleader-outfit consisting of a wool shirt, purple-skirt and white "knee-socks". She has long hair and red eyes. She occasionally wears either a school-girl uniform or a yukata, the latter and former to make herself look more attractive to Taiki. After training however, she became taller, curvier and her personality changed as well.

Plot

 * What Lies Beyond Thy Mask: Adela Adelina vs Taiki Kurosaki
 * Ryuka Injiki Arc

Powers & Abilities
Great Spiritual Power: Adela, while formerly being a Numeros level Arrancar, possesses Spiritual Energy that easily outclasses a Shinigami lieutenant. Her spiritual power, formerly pink, is now white.

Expert Swordsmanship Specialist: Though she prefers unarmed fighting, Adela is skilled in swordsmanship, enough to fight another released Zanpakutō with only one arm, and still deliver damage to her opponent. Taiki, however, was shown to easily outclass her.

Cero: Adela is capable of firing a white Cero from the palm of her hand, as well as her fist. Her Cero is powerful enough to cut through a relfected Cero of similar power.
 * Cero Chispa ((弾虚閃)セロ ジスパ, Sero Jisupa; Spanish for "Zero Spark", Japanese for "Bullet Hollow Flash"): A variant of the Cero Adela developed. Similar to the bala, it hardens the Adela's Reiatsu and releases it in a small, swift blast of spiritual energy, actually resembling a bullet, and is released from her fingertip. She is capable of firing them repeatedly, and each bullet moves 320 m/s.
 * Cero Chispa: Embate ((弾虚閃故殺)セロジスパエムベーツ, Sero Jisupa Emubeitu; Spanish for "Zero Spark: Onslaught", Japanese for "Bullet Hollow Flash": Manslaughter"): A variation of the Cero Chispa, made specifically to kill her opponent. Adela waves her hand in a circle formation, creating a circle of "bullets". She then repeats the "circle" form until the circle is completely filled with "bullets". Pressing her hand to the circle, she can fire select bullets at will, or completely unleash them in a barrage. Like the previous, these move at 320 m/s.

Hierro: As an Arrancar, Adela possesses the passive technique known as Hierro. Her Hierro is very strong currently, but when she first appeared Taiki was easily able to slice through it. Mimicking Taiki, she is able to coat herself in Reiatsu to add to her defenses.

Pesquisa: Like all Arrancar, she possesses a Pesquisa, and like all Arrancar, her's functions differently. Adela's works like a "field" around her, allowing her to detect all beings with reiatsu who slip into this "field". This allows her to feel where someone is no matter what direction she's facing, similarly to a Shinigami's ability to detect Reiatsu.

Garganta: Garganta is how Arrancar move to and from Hueco Mundo. Adela demonstrated this ability first when she took Taiki on a "field trip" with her to Hueco Mundo. It literally tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and solidified to create a discernible pathway.

Sonído Master: As an Espada-level Arrancar, Adela is very proficient in the use of Sonído, and is capable of keeping up with Ahatake, a very proficient user of Shunpo.

Zanpakutō
Adela's Zanpakuto is called Guillotina ((断頭ソウ)ギロチン girochina; Spanish for Guillotine, Japanese for Decapitation Saw). When sealed it takes the form of a dual, three pronged blade, each connected by a chain. It had no sheath. When in contact with her blades, her hair lightens in places.

Resurrección: It's release command is Sever (断つ Tatsu). Like her former partner she retains a humanoid form in her released state. She grows black wings, her skin darkens, and her blade turns into a sword with a blade shaped like a guillotine.
 * Resurrección Special Ability: Her blade is unique in that each time it lands a strike on an object, opponent or not, it grows sharper, making cutting even a high level Espada's Hierro easier as the battle drags on. Ironically, this makes it different from an actual guillotine, which would get duller with repeated usage, and would need to be sharpened, lest the execution of the victim take longer, and wind up being more painful. It's secondary ability is to dull any opponent's weapon that it collides with, making it more difficult for an opponent to land a lethal hit on her with a blade.

Trivia

 * The Location of her Hollow whole and mask remnants remains unknown. I don't even know.
 * She seems to have feeling's for Taiki Kurosaki and behaves quite differently around him.
 * Adela is the only known Arrancar to ever have children.

Matro (マトラ Matoro) is a fanon character of the Bleach Series.

Appearance
Matro bears the appearance of a young man in his teens with spiky brown hair and curious golden eyes. He has tan skin and, unlike most Arrancar, wears very modern clothing. His attire consists of a blue jacket that is left open, a white shirt, and jeans. His Hollow Mask remnants are unknown, though he jokingly said they were his teeth.

Personality
Matro's personality varies often, depending on the situation. He's normally calm, laid back and unconcerned. He jokes around alot, and unlike most Hollows, is not violent and will not fight unless provoked. These traits and his appearance, would allow him to pass as a human. However, when angered, he has been shown to be frightening, the kindness in him all but vanished. However, he will not kill an opponent without good reason, normally letting them live after crushing their will to fight.

History
Matro was one of the few Arrancar who was a Vasto Lorde Level Hollow before becoming an Arrancar (which explains his extremely humanoid form). As a Hollow, he spent his time wandering around Hueco Mundo, killing and devouring Hollows left and right and increasing his power exponentially. He noticed that no matter how many Hollows he devoured, his Spiritual Pressure kept increasing. He began searching for a way to stabilize his power, he ripped off his mask, and as the transformation from Hollow to Arrancar occurred, he decided storing a mere fragment of his power and soul into a weapon would be boring, and he evenly split his power, retaining half, and the other half forming a new Arrancar, who called herself Cristina.

Powers and Abilities
Immense Spiritual Power: Matro has a large ammount of spiritual power, and even though he split it with Cristina, he is still on a Captain's Level. His Spiritual Energy is golden.

Master Swordsmanship Specialist: Matro has demonstrated tremendous skill in swordsmanship, despite it not being his natural weapon, and is skilled in using his sword to block attacks using the flat side of the blade as a shield, and his swipes are quick and powerful.
 * Sword Generation: One of Matro's least used abilities. Gathering Reishi in his hand, he molds it and compresses it until it becomes a Katana, which he can then proceed to battle with.

Marksmanship: Matro is a skilled marksman, being able to accurately shoot down small or even fast moving targets with his gun.

Second Being
El Gato del Trueno (サンダーキャット Erugetsu Derutorueno; Spanish and Japanese for The Thunder Cat) is Matro's Zanpakuto. Unlike other Arrancar, his power is not sealed in the form of a sword, but in the form of another Arrancar, the young Cristina.


 * Resurrección: El Gato del Trueno's release command is Roar and Strike (鳴き声然して殴打 nakigoe soshite ouda). When released, Matro wields an ornate black revolver with XIII etched into the side. His attire changes to a long, worn black overcoat, a black, open collared shirt, and dark black pants. His mask and Hollow Hole are still not shown.


 * Resurrección Special Ability: While in his released form, Matro's revolver can fire electrically charged blasts of Reishi. He states he is capable of firing 100 shots at a time. He can control the size of his attacks, from large blasts of lightning, to small bullets. When he fires bullets, it takes less energy and he can fire more, up to 500.

Cristina (クリスチナ Kurisutina) is a fanon character of the Bleach series.

Appearance
Cristina takes the form of a young girl with red eyes, and long blonde hair. Like Matro, she wears modern clothing uncommon of Arrancar, normally wearing a T-shirt, arm warmers and black shorts with no shoes. The location of her Hollow Mask is unknown.

Personality
Cristina's personality matches her appearance, that of a young child. She is loud, hyperactive, and highly curious, always the first to explore or investigate anything they come into contact with, much to Matro's annoyance. Uncommon for an Arrancar, she is very kind, and willing to help anyone in need. She's developed a brother-sister relationship with Matro, acting very familiarly with him, and annoying him a great deal.

History
While she was still one with Matro, she shared his same past and experiences until Matro split into two Arrancar, one resulting in himself and one resulting in Cristina.

Powers and Abilities
Immense Spiritual Power: Though her Spiritual Pressure is weaker than Matro's she can still take on the average Shinigami captain by herself.

Expert Swordsmanship Specialist: Even though it is not her most common weapon, Cristina has some skill is swordplay, on the level of a Shinigami Lieutenant.

Marksmanship: Due to her release being a gun, Cristina is a skilled marksman, being able to shoot down small moving targets, and can zone in on targets from a distance.

Second Being
El Gato del Trueno (サンダーキャット Erugetsu Derutorueno; Spanish and Japanese for The Thunder Cat) is Cristina's Zanpakuto. Unlike other Arrancar, her power is not sealed in the form of a sword, but in the form of another Arrancar, Matro. However, is also seems to be sealed in her, as Matro is typically shown releasing.


 * Resurrección: El Gato del Trueno's release command is Roar and Strike (鳴き声然して殴打 nakigoe soshite ouda). When released, Cristin wields a standard pistol. Her appearance however, changes drastically, as she ages to a woman in her 20's, wearing what slightly resembles a military uniform, and a long white cloak.


 * Resurrección Special Ability: While in her released form, Cristina's pistol can fire electrically charged blasts of Reishi. It possesses the same power as Matro's revolver, capable of firing 100 shots at a time before it needs to reload and can fire the blasts in the form of bullets, where she is capable of firing up to 500

Alita Saladaña (アリタ サルダー Arita Sarudaa) is an Arrancar allied with Diosa.

Appearance
Alita takes the appearance of a young woman with long, sliver hair, and red eyes. Her most distinctive feature is her very large breasts. Unlike most Arrancar, she does not wear a modified Shinigami Uniform. Her outfit is much more "modern", typically being a black military outfit of unknown origin. Her alternate outfit is a blue military jacket, white shirt, black tie and long blue pants with black boots. This makes her the only known Arrancar not to dress in white. The location of both her Hollow Mask fragments and her Hollow Hole are unknown. Her Zanpakutō is worn on her waist.

Personality
Alita is a short-tempered, and impulsive woman. She does not take insults easy, and is more than willing to snap at someone when they make her angry. She is also normally quiet, keeping to herself mostly. Alita is very loyal to Diosa, more so than Grimmjow or Aaroniero are. Alita is fond of painting and get's easily annoyed with Dordoni, who she finds to be a useless addition to the army.

Powers and Abilities
Unknown Level of Swordsmanship: Alita possesses a rapier in her sealed state, hinting that she is capable of using a sword. Grimmjow, an expert swordsman himself, is abnormally weary when she places her hand on the sword's hilt.

Immense Spiritual Power: Alita possesses an immense amount of spiritual power, on par with an Primera Espada. Her spiritual energy, when fully unleashed, is capable of killing off weak individuals, and it is colored blue.

Cero: Her Cero is blue in color. Unlike most Arrancar, she can release her Cero from more than one location. Her Cero is commonly released from directly in the middle of her chest, but she is also able to release it by swinging her rapier. When released with this method, it follows the arc of her sword swing.
 * Gran Rey Cero: Despite not being an Espada, her power level is equivalent to one, and she is able to use this Espada-exclusive Cero variant, which produces a much larger and more powerful version of the normal Cero. To use it, Alita combines her Cero with her blood, creating much more powerful Cero. Her Gran Rey Cero is colored red.

Sonído Master: Alita has demonstrated incredible speed in battle, initially able to outmaneuver Diosa on multiple occasions during their first encounter.

Garganta: Garganta is how Arrancar move to and from Hueco Mundo. Alita has the ability to use this technique. It literally tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and solidified to create a discernible pathway. Alita has been shown using it to travel to and from the Soul Society.

Zanpakutō
Caballero Azul (青騎士(あお騎士騎手),Kabarero Azaru; Spanish for "Blue Knight", Japanese for "Blue Knight Rider") is Alita's Zanpakutō. When sealed, it takes the form of a rapier that she wears on her waist.


 * Proyectil Azul (青弾丸爆弾(ブルー弾丸); Puroiekutiru Azaru Spanish for "Blue Projectile", Japanese for "Blue Bullet Bomb"): A technique Alita can use in her sealed state. Covering her sword in blue spiritual energy, she launches it towards the opponent in the shape of a sphere, similar to a musket ball. She is capable of keeping the energy wrapped around her blade to augment her sword swings.


 * Resurrección: Her release command is "Ascend" (興起 kōki), most likely referring to a squire ascending to the rank of a knight. When releasing her Zanpakutō, she points it at the opponent and calls out the release command and name. She is enveloped in a skull-shaped surge of energy that dissolves when the release is completed. In this form, she remains entirely humanoid, the remains of her Hollow Mask and the location of her Hollow Hole still unknown. Her rapier is replaced with a blue shield with raised patterns and a lance, featuring an unusual hilt with a hand guard that completely covers her hand. The lance, like the shield is has a raised pattern. It is often said that her Resurrección is more like a Shinigami's Shikai, as it grants her no Hollow like traits in terms of appearance.


 * Resurrección Special Ability: In this form, Alita's speed, strength, and durability increase immensely.


 * Lightning and Water Manipulation: Her primary ability in this form is the creation and manipulation of lightning and water.


 * Cascada (断瀑 (カスケーダ), Kasukeda; Spanish for "Waterfall", Japanese for "Cutting Waterfall"): Lifting her shield, Alita shoots a whirling torrent of water into the air that crashes down with enough force to crush several of the buildings created in Hueco Mundo.


 * Relámpago (稲妻(レランパーゴ), Reranpāgo; Spanish for "Lightning", Japanese for "Thunder and Lightning"): Covering her lance in electricity, Alita unleashes it in the form of a "bullet" in the shape of her lance at her opponent. When it makes contact with anything, the bullet creates a incredibly-destructive explosion, easily dwarfing the building sof Hueco Mundo. As with her Proyectil Azul, Alita can keep the electricity wrapped around her lance to augment her sword swings, and numb the opponent's the lance makes contact with.


 * Asimilación (同化,Achimaireshon; Spanish and Japanese for "Assimilation")" With this ability, Alita's can control any water (including ice) or electricity based moves that her opponent uses against her, making their weapon hers. Despite being called "Asimilación", it does not actually take in anything.


 * Luz Flecha (シャード衝撃(ライトアロー),Radozu Fureja; Spanish for "Light Arrow", Japanese for "Shard Bombardment"): She shapes a line of bright-white energy by running her lance through the air. Once the line is made, it shatters and all the powerful sharp shards are released at her opponent like a machine gun firing powerful bladed bullets. These shards are made of electricity, and can numb on contact.


 * Elegante Fuente (水スポウト(エレガントな泉) Spanish for "Elegant Fountain", Japanese for "Water Spout"): Surging water emegeres from the raised patterns of the lance, covering it in it's entierty. She launches the water at her opponent in the form of a large blast. However, she is able to control the water in any way she wishes, from using it as a rop to capture an opponent, to changing it's form into an extension of her lance.


 * Cero Oscuras (黒虚閃, (セロ・オスキュラス), sero osukyurasu; Spanish for "Dark Zero", Japanese for "Black Hollow Flash"): Despite not being an Espada, Alita managed to gain access to this powerful Cero variant through training. Like her regular Cero, it can be released from either her chest or the tip of her sword, releasing a condensed jet-black Cero (with a blue outline) of great power. When fired, it covers any exposed light into absolute pitch darkness. She prefers to avoid using this Cero variant, stating that a regular Cero is easier to perform.


 * Resurrección: Segunda Etapa (刀剣解放第二階層 (レスレクシオン・セグンダ・エターパ), resurekushion segunda etāpa; Spanish for "Resurrection Second Stage", Japanese for "Sword's Release: Second Level"): ALita is encircled in a torrent of water and electricity. The water surges up, before raining down on the opponent. In this form, Alita greatly resembles her Hollow self, a first for her Ressurección. She is still vaguely humanoid, but her skin is seems to give off a "glow". Her Hollow mask remnants are finally shown, covering her jaw, and extend down to cover her breasts and stomach. She keeps the shield and lance from her Ressurección, though both are now merged with her arms.


 * Cero Géminis (多虚閃(ゼロジェミニ); Spanish for "Gemini Zero", Japanese for "Multi-Hollow Flash"): Alita's signature technique, usable only in her Segunda Etapa state. With her abnormal control over her Cero, Alita can release a Cero blast simultaneously from as many parts of her body as she wishes, creating multiple blasts that merge when fired to create a truly powerful Cero. When released at point-blank range, this technique can kill the opponent instantly.


 * Relámpago Blasón (稲妻紋章(レランパーゴぶらすん),Reranpāgo Brasōn; Spanish for "Lightning Armor", Japanese for "Armor of Thunder and Lightning"): Her lance and shield crackle with a great amount of electricity and she launches the electricity up into the air. After a moment, it comes back down on Alita with great force. The electricity forms body of armor to cover his entire person, sleek in design, and angelic to behold. The armor lets off a bright glow, damaging the sight of anyone near her. It increases nearly all aspects of her combat abilities, her strength, durability, defense, but she is slowed, making it difficult to catch the enemy for close range hits.

Shōko Shikyo (死去証拠 Shikyo Shouko) is the former segunda (2nd) Espada from Sōsuke Aizen's Arrancar Army, before being demoted to a Privaron Espada. She now resides in the World of the Living, masquerading as a human under the name Alameda (ポプラ並木 Arameda).

Appearance
In her Arrancar form, Shōko appears to be a young woman with green eyes, and long blue hair, part of which is combed to cover her right eye. Like most Arrancar under Aizen's command, she wears a modified outfit, her's consisting of a long-sleeved jacket that opens up at the top to slightly reveal her breasts, and opens under this and flares out, exposing her stomach. She wears shorts, a belts, and black boots. Her Zanpakutō is concealed in her left sleeve, and the remains of her Hollow Mask take a form similar to a "cat-ears" acessory. Her Hollow hole is located in her throat. In her Gigai,, her appearance is slightly different. Her hair is longer, and both her eyes, which are now blue to match her hair, are visible. In her Gigai, her outfits vary, and she wears a small ribbon. She is also rather flat-chested in her Gigai.

Personality
Shōko is one of the most gentle Arrancar seen so far, apologizing to her opponents during her attack, and is also often portrayed as a calm individual. However, she can also be a rather impatient woman, and is prone to violent emotional outbursts from time to time. Due to her gentle nature, she prefers not to fight, often avoiding battle as best she can, despite her great power. She prefers to live amongst Humans, inhabiting a Gigai made especially for Arrancars by Kisuke Urahara, making her one of the few, if not the only Arrancar to do this.

History
Before her Shinigamification, Shōko was a Vasto Lordes level Hollow. Her appearance was vaguely humanoid, while possessing several feline like features. After wandering through Hueco Mundo, she encountered the Shinigami Sōsuke Aizen, who was just a Lieutenant at the time, and was already recruiting Arrancar for his first generation Espada. She decided to join him, shortly after undergoing her natural Shinigamification, joining Aizen's Arrancar Army as the 2nd Espada (the rank that would later be held by Baraggan Luisenbarn.

During her time as an Espada, she generally kept to herself, leaving her quarters only when ordered by Aizen, or to read books in her spare time, being the only Arrancar besides Nelliel to do so. After Aizen obtained the Hōgyoku, he found that Arrancar created using it were more powerful than those he already had, who have been formed naturally, and as such, Shōko, along with the majority of the First Generation Espada, was demoted to a Privaron Espada (十刃落ち (プリバロン・エスパーダ), puribaron esupāda; Spanish for "Deprived Sword", Japanese for "Ten Fallen Blades"). Despite being in Tres Cisfras when Ichigo and his team entered Las Noches, she did not need to make an appearance, due to the Ryoka not crossing her path. After Aizen's defeat at the hands of the Soul Society, she left Hueco Mundo for the World of the Living, where she now resides, masquerading as a human.

Appearances

 * False Life: Shōko Shikyo vs Kanade Nozomi

Powers & Abilities
As a former Espada member, Shōko is very powerful, weaker than the Espada that replaced her, but far stronger than the Números.

Gigai Inhabitation: Shōko is amongst the only Arrancar who has been seen inhabiting a Gigai, While not an ability per say, it is mentioned due to it being uncommon. She is capable of utilizing most of her spiritual powers while inhabiting her Gigai, though she prefers not to.

Gentle Nature: Not an actual ability, but a trait worthy of mention. Unlike most Arrancar, Shōko is far more kind and gentle, giving her the ability to live among Humans without the urge to devour their souls. Due to her gentle nature, she seems to have better control over her powers than most Arrancar, or anyone with Hollow Powers, due to the lack of blinding fighting drive.

Immense Spiritual Power: As a former Espada, Shōko has considerable spiritual energy, befitting that of her former rank. When used at full power, her spiritual power can be felt from a large distance. She is capable of masking her spiritual energy to the point of making it feel non-existent, providing decent camouflage.

Sonído Master: Shōko's great speed made her very useful on the battlefield, being able to easily outmaneuver and overwhelm many opponents. Shōko  moves at an excessively fast speed in combat, and is noted to be cat-like in her movements.

Cero: Like many Arrancar, Shōko is capable of firing a Cero. In her Arrancar form, she fires it from her Hollow Hole, and as such can be launched without a "fighting pose". In her Gigai, she launches her Cero from her fingertip. It is colored indigo.

Bala: Shōko, like many Arrancar, can fire a Bala. This technique hardens the user's spiritual pressure and fires it like a bullet from their fist. Her Bala is emerald green.

Garganta: (黒腔（ガルガンタ）, garuganta; Spanish for "Throat", Japanese for "Black Cavity"): Garganta is how Arrancar move to and from Hueco Mundo. Shōko has the ability to use the technique. It literally tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and solidified to create a discernible pathway.
 * Garganta Reflexión: Shōko is capable of opening a Garganta and allowing it to swallow an enemy's attack, then, shifting the path of the Garganta, opens a separate Garganta to allow the swallowed attack to be sent back in it's user's direction.

Enhanced Hierro (鋼皮（イエロ）, iero; Spanish for "Iron", Japanese for "Steel Skin"): refers to the hardened skin of the Arrancar, which is a result of their compressed spiritual power. Due to her former rank, Shōko possesses extremely durable Hierro, being able to withstand brute force trauma and the edges of swords without suffering much damage. Her Hierro is shown in a limited form in her Gigai, making her more durable than most Humans, but not to the extent of her Arrancar form.

Enhanced Strength: Even in her Gigai form, Shōko is shown to be very strong, capable of catching a charging opponent, and launching them far back in the direction they came from.

Zanpakutō
Tigresa (あばずれ女 (トラの女王), Chigureza: Spanish for "Tigress", Japanese for "Tiger Queen"). Her Zanpakutō takes the form of what appears to a wakizashi with a round tsuba adorned with small spikes at the top on each side, vaguely resembling a cat. She seems to conceal within her sleeve
 * Resurrección: Her release command for his Zanpakutō is "Submerge" (水没, Suibotus), referring to a tiger's ability to swim. Her Ressurección is unusual in the fact that she is almost completely human-like, with the exception of the cat-like ears on her head. Her eyes become orange with cat-like slits for pupils, her hair becomes a green-ish silver, and her outfit changes to that of a black and white frilly dress, and a choker. She wears no shoes in this form.
 * Resurrección Special Ability: Despite her water-themed release command, Shōko gains no water based abilities in this form. However, her natural abilities power up immensely.


 * Enhanced Strength: While in her released form, her might increases further, the the point of being able to lift objects many times her size, and launch them a great distance. She is capable of breaking bones in one blow, and ripping limbs off effortlessly.


 * Healing Factor: When released, Shōko can heal much faster than others and is even capable of regenerating, so long as the desired target is not a vital organ.


 * Flight: Shōko possesses the power to hover in the sky, and propel herself with no visible means of support.


 * Energy Sword: She is capable of forming swords of energy in her hands that vaguely resemble her sealed Zanpakutō. These swords are able to reform if broken.


 * Enhanced Speed: In this form, Shōko's speed increases to the point where she moves at blinding speed in short bursts, appearing as a blur to the untrained eye. In this state, she can leave afterimages to confuse an opponent.


 * Enhanced Durability: Her Hierro is drastically strengthened to the point where she can block blows from unreleased Captain Level Shinigami with her bare skin and not suffer an injury. However, through trial-and-error, one can defeat this durability by adjusting themselves to her reiatsu. Only opponents at Bankai level can do so and be successful, while weaker opponents will get the same result (even if they do adapt).


 * Claws: When released, her nails lengthen and sharpen. While this does not appear immediately threatening, her claws secrete a deadly poison. From the moment the claws pierce the skin, Shōko can inject the poison into their systems. Once inside, it circulates throughout the bloodstream, and reaches special receptors on the surface of muscle cells. From there, it imitates the action of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that our nerves naturally release to make our muscles move. The poison makes every muscle twitch to the point that it becomes unresponsive to any subsequent stimulation: the victim can't breathe, they can't even blink.


 * Rugido Del Trueno: (雷のとどろき(トラの雷叫び) Rujaido Derutorueno; Spanish for "Roar of The Thunder" Japanese for "Tiger's Thunder Cry"): Shōko gathers and compresses reiatsu between both her hands at the center of her chest. She then lets it go, releasing a large blast of indigo colored spiritual energy large enough to destroy half the area around her.

Trivia

 * The poison in Shōko's claws has the same effect as a large dose of Succhinylcholine.
