				<strong>Player:</strong> Primarch<br><strong>Name:</strong> Goro Oshiro <br><strong>Division:</strong> 1st<br><strong>Rank:</strong> Captain-Commander<br><strong>Appearance:</strong><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><div align="center">(http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g156/vmleary/heihachi.jpg)<br>With the inclusion of standard outfit, of course</div></div></div><br><strong>Strengths:</strong><ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc">Spirit Pressure - The Captain Commander possess reiatsu expected for one of his station. By most Shinigami and beings aware of reiatsu it is considered utterly monstrous in scale. Releasing his spirit pressure is known to cause lightning storms, the element associated with his Zanpakutō.</li><li type="disc">Hand-to-Hand Combat - In the history of Soul Society, there are none whom can rightfully claim to have been a contender for his mastery of <em>Hakuda</em>.<br></li><li type="disc">Swordsmanship - Goro is as talented with sword combat as one would expect for the man that has been the Captain-Commander of the Shinigami since their founding. Even by the standards of Captains he is very talented.</li><li type="disc">Shunpo - While not to the level of his swordsmanship and certainly not his hand-to-hand, Takehiko is a noted master of Shunpo even among the other Captains and has extensive experience. </li></ul><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> <ul class="bbc_list"><li type="disc">Kido - Goro has always been more martial then magical in his combat. If it were not for his immense spirit pressure &amp; experience his kido would be truly dismal. Among the Captains his kido is below average, something even more noticeable as he is the Captain-Commander. </li><li type="disc">Traditionlist - Goro is very, very old. He has spent so long creating, pondering and enforcing the laws of the Shinigami he has come to believe they are absolute. Most situations have become black and white to him. He is stubborn with the laws and traditions of the Shinigami and very slow to accept new ideas and even slower to implement new policies in Soul Society. It is an unfortunate truth that the Shinigami will never really modernize while Goro Oshiro is Captain-Commander.&nbsp; </li></ul><strong>Zanpakutō:</strong> <br><em>Name:</em> Kami kirā (<em>God Killer</em>)<br><em>Shikai</em> Ten no himei o tsukuru (<em>Make the Heavens scream</em>)<br>When Captain-Commander Goro Oshiro releases Kami Kira it alters its form from a katana to a Dai-Katana, it is an event that can be detected by everything for a great distance due to the huge spike of spirit pressure, it is further evident by the storm clouds forming for miles around, as Kami Kira is a lightning weapon. While released the blade is coated in constant lightning and creates the boom of thunder when it strikes an object (or person). By pointing Kami Kira towards an object Goro can fire streams of lightning that are known to vaporise just about anything.&nbsp; <br><br><em>Bankai</em> Kami kirā, Tengokutodjigoku no ryōhō o shūryō suru koto ga dekiru mono o akiraka (<em>God Killer, Reveal that which may end both Heaven and Hell</em>)<br>When Kami Kira's Bankai is triggered, the lightning storms created by his shikai become unnaturally violent and begin to damage the surrounding area to such a degree that by Goro's own admission they would eventually destroy everything, himself included. Regardless the presence of this lightning grants Goro a noticeable boost to his physical properties. During his Bankai he can perform several special abilities, such as an advanced version of his Shikai ability to point the blade in a certain direction to fire streams of lightning. He can also draw the entirety of the lightning towards his blade for a super charged attack or to "fling" it towards an opponent. This always results in massive collateral damage. He can also proceed a thunderous boom that releases a wave of impact so powerful it causes visible movement in the air (not to mention the ring moving out from his body knocks back whatever it encounters with terrifying force). It should be noted that with his massive spirit pressure released, most individuals cannot stand in the presence of his Bankai, it would certainly be lethal to the vast majority of non-Captain powered entities.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br><strong>History:</strong><br>Back before the Shinigami existed Goro Oshiro was just a man. In those days there was no formal training for a Zanpakutō, one learned its name and grew in power or they did not. It was that simple. Some of those that had learned the name of their swords, such as Goro, believed they could protect others with their power. They were right, but how they did it was wrong. They were very few in number back then, dozens at most. Not the thousands the Shinigami can muster these days. At first they protected small local areas but as it grew, they stopped knowing the names of the people they were protecting. When the people they protected became faceless masses it became easier to stop caring about the reason and more about the process. Protectors became leaders, and the leaders watched carefully for anyone to slip up. <br><br>Things started to change when Goro and two of his dearest friends, whom he considered brothers wandered the Earth battling Hollows. They came upon a creature the likes of which had never been seen before. They tried to fight it but it was hopeless. His comrades told him to run and get the others, they would hold back the ferocious hollow. With a heavy heart Goro did so. When they returned the fight was devastating, he had brought dozens of men that would form the first Shinigami, but other Hollows had come, attracted to the events. The day was won in the end, but the survivors released things needed to change. From that day the Shinigami was born. Goro Oshiro was elected their leader, for he his Zanpakutō was the most powerful and he had wisdom to match. In time the Academy was founded and the warriors trained, they passed on their skills over time they became a true defense force. <br><br>But those were the days when Goro had colour in his hair. It has been two thousand years since the Shinigami was founded. In that time much has changed. These days he continues his mission and duty.

				<strong>Player:</strong> xSnorkleRainbow<br><strong>Name:</strong> (First)Ami (Last)Motoko<br><strong>Division:</strong> 4th Division<br><strong>Rank:</strong> Captain<br><strong>Appearance:</strong><br><em>Body/Looks:</em>(http://th02.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2011/173/0/6/lazy_by_tomokos-d3jpwae.png) <em>Outfit:</em>(http://fc01.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/297/a/f/pcommission___akiko_minonaki_by_flyingdragon04-d4durrk.png)<br><br><strong>Strengths:</strong><br>* First to note would be her quickness. Due to her small size, Ami is extremely quick. Due to her speed, she easily picked up the art of Shunpo.<br>* Flexibility. She is very flexible again mostly due to her size and training.<br>* Ami has an immense amount of spiritual power. Her short temper often effects her spiritual pressure and can cause it to flare wildly sometimes; she doesn't always have complete control.<br>* Ami is proud of her exceptional swordsmanship and enjoys to practice her skills alone rather than with an audience. <br><br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> <br>* Patience. Ami is very, very inpatient. She hasn't got time to waste and will tell you when you are doing so.<br>* Hotheadedness. She can be extremely hot headed and can snap unpredictably. This also means she's quite headstrong, even though she isn't amazing at fighting on the front lines.<br>* Despite first impressions, anything outside of 'work' makes her extremely uncomfortable and she can be very timid because of that.<br>* Ami isn't particularly well trained in physical combat. Of course, being assigned to the 4th Division has saved her some humiliation because of having the least amount of tact in sparring. She can hold her own though and will always try her best. She hates to lose after all!<br><br><strong>Zanpakutō:</strong><br><em>Name:</em> Ritoruhīrā. <em>(Meaning 'Little Healer'.)</em><br><em>Shikai</em> Her Shikai consists of the simple release command: Cure. When this word is spoken with the intent to release her Zanpakuto, the steel of her sword will disperse into a light green mist before shooting out in all different directions towards her teammates. It can connect to as many people as possible, though only within a 30 yard radius. It connects to the others spiritual pressure and cures all their injuries steadily over a period of time. It is obvious who it is connected to because of the bright green beams connecting from her sword to the person.<br><em>Bankai</em> Ami's Bankai consists of her sword once again dispersing into a green mist before the particles dart out into different directions. Shortly after this motion, a massive green shield will fill the area of around 5 miles. All allies in this area will be instantly cured and their energy and spiritual pressure will slowly return to them, leaving them feeling refreshed. All enemies in said area will be plunged into total darkness, loosing all senses and feeling in their limps to wander endlessly. Of course, once the Bankai is stopped or such, the enemies will be returned to reality, though not necessarily in once piece.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Ami was brought up in the 79th District in North Rukongai. She was taken into a household deep within the District after being found sleeping on the streets. The family was a large one, made up of a middle aged woman and man who appeared to be married, and around 7 other children; 3 girls, including herself and 5 boys. They weren't related in anyway, but the couple always talked about their dreams of children and they thought of each of them as their own. They treated them as if they were their own. It was different, having so many siblings; Ami defiantly wasn't used to it and often preferred being alone. If she wasn't by herself, she was probably getting into and losing fights with the neighbor rough boys who were a few years older than her and a lot bigger. She'd take on them all by herself though, of course. After losing one of these fights was she approached by a young, beautiful black haired woman her told her stories of a special school where she could learn things like how to fight and swords. Apparently, she sensed a immense pressure in the child, which was rare from children her age. She would often meet with this lady as she grew older, seeing her and stopping her in the streets. <br><br>Once she was old enough, the stranger, who's name she'd never heard, showed her the way to Shin'ō Academy; the school she had spoke of in her many stories before. Ami attended but she didn't have the most easiest of starts. She didn't make any close friends and still preferred to stay on her own. She struggled to even speak with her teachers, let alone other students and she failed to graduate around 4 times due to her temper and lack of control. Of course, she did manage to pass after she'd managed to learn a little restraint and sadly, she never saw the mysterious woman after her introducing Ami to Shin'ō Academy and wishing her the best of luck.

He takes this as far as to refuse to fight opponents that don't directly threaten his own troops</li><li>Blind trust and dependency on Chisiyo - Due to the way they grew up, Sosuke focuses and functions very poorly without Chisiyo around.</li><li>Extreme weak body - with the exception of his legs and brain the rest of Sosuke's body is poorly maintained making him immensely weak in close combat and through prolonged fights as he easily tires and needs enormous amounts of rest afterwards, often sleeping for weeks after a tough fight.</li><li>Decaying mind - due to his isolation Sosuke's mind and connection with normal people is slowly decaying, his sanity often questioned, but his loyalty never doubted.</li></ul><br><br><br><strong>Zanpakutō:</strong> while sealed his Zanpakutō takes the form of a regular katana<br><br><em>Name:</em> Kurobara (黒薔薇, Black Rose)<br><br><strong>Shikai:</strong><br><br><em>Incantation:</em> Kurosu, Kurobare (殺す黒薔薇, Massacre, Black Rose) <br><br><em>Appearance:</em> while in its shikai, the blade disperses and forms two small flying rose flowers that hover by Sosuke's shoulders, when he initiates combat the flowers either close, entering their offensive state, where they're able to fire beam of concentrated Reiatsu. While opened the roses can function as shields to defend Sosuke, and both of them can at any given time form a hilt for him to grab, the rose forming a blade of reiatsu. <br><br><strong>Bankai</strong><br><br><em>Name:</em> Sen Kurobare no Sogi (千黒薔薇の葬儀, funeral of a thousand black roses) <br><br><em>Appearance:</em> The roses multiply a thousand times creating a huge amount of roses, each of them able to both attack and defend Sosuke, the weakness of them being the concentration require to control all of them at once. His ultimate technique is Sekai no ha (世界の刃, World Blade) all of the roses with the exception of one gathers in a large circle before firing their combined blast into the single one left, using it as a catalyst to produce a awe inspiring energy blade.<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Not much of Sosuke’s past is known, what they are sure of though, is that he was on watch by Mayuri Kurotsuchi of the 12th division, along with other potential test subjects and possible shinigami candidates, for a long time growing up as he was already back then unusually intelligent. He also took in a young girl early on, her being his current vice-captain Chisoyo. They took up arms together to defend their home from gangs and bullying. Ihabara’s powers showed themselves then, Kurobara appearing before Sosuke who in turn whispered to it, releasing it for the first time, a feat which would take him decades to repeat, the first time being an accident more than skill, annihilating all the ill doers in his neighbourhood at once. From then he rose in remarkable speed through first the academy, not unlike Toshiro Hitsugaya, with the exception of close quarter combat which took him immense time and effort to even pass. By now Mayuri Kurotsuchi was gone from the 12th division, and by the time Sosuke came, the leader had changed. He quickly proved himself to be more than capable of supervising the senior members of the division. as part of his training and to test his intellect. His genius was further proved when he build a Gigai for Shinigami wanting to the leave the corps for good, by allowing them to reproduce, this research having gone on with other members of the division for years, but with Sosuke in charge of the project. It was about this time he overheard other divisions talking about him, especially some of the more combat active shinigami wanting him gone to make them look good. He grew paranoid and started to withdraw further and further into himself, focusing his attention over the next few centuries, on rising through the division's ranks so he could set up more surveillance equipment to monitor his surroundings .

				Posting up my character. I don't have a picture yet (that always takes me forever). Please give me some feedback!<br><br><br><strong>Player:</strong> Red Lobster<br><strong>Name:</strong> Corin Kirikata<br><strong>Division:</strong> 9th Division<br><strong>Rank:</strong>&nbsp; Captain<br><strong>Appearance:</strong><br><div class="spoiler_container"><div onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button" class="spoiler_header">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><div align="center">(http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs49/i/2009/209/4/9/OC_Fighter_color_by_YamaO.jpg)</div></div></div><br>Minus the actual sword that he is holding, and the symbol on the shield would be different (yet to be determined). The armor he is wearing is actually a great indication of what his Bankai armor would look like, save that he also is wearing a Samurai mask. The banner hanging from his waist would be white, and have the symbol of the 9th Division on it.<br><br><strong>Strengths:</strong><br><br>Rare Zanpakuto: Corin’s sword is among one of the most powerful Zanpakutos in existence, and is currently the strongest when it comes to defensive weapons.<br><br>Doing it for a while: Corin is not a new Captain. He has been Captain of the 9th Division long enough to have seen every position of Captain come and go, save of course for the General himself.<br><br>Strong Physical Combatant (Using Yama in Shikai) : Years of being a Captain have given Corin the edge at being a very powerful combatant, strictly through knowledge and experience rather than being a genius Shinigami.<br><br>Good Teacher: Having been a Captain for as long as he has, Corin is an exceptional teacher. He takes pride in every student, and often spends most of his time in the ‘classroom’.<br><br><br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong> <br><br>Black and White attitude: Corin has been the Captain of the 9th Division for an extremely long time, and during those years he has adopted an extremely overzealous view of what is right and wrong. He is not often overtly rude, however the man has a dedication to his moral ideals that bridges on insanity. There is no gray area, and those who believe there is are unworthy of being a Shinigami.<br><br>Strategic Mind: Corin’s Bankai ability is extremely straight forward. He has almost never had the need to out-think his opponents in order to defeat them, he simply defeats them. As a result he has never developed a Captain level ability to dissect and find an opponent’s weakness, however he still excels at this over the Lieutenants. <br><br><strong>Zanpakutō:</strong><br><em>Name:</em> Yama<br><em>Shikai</em>:<br><br>“Hold fast Yama” In this form Corin’s Zanpakuto blade disappears. What appears to replace it is a circular shield with a blade extending out from the area opposite where his fist would be sitting (Imagine wearing a Katar with a shield over your forearm). In this state Corin’s Zanpakuto can absorb any attack that is on a similar power scale to his own, that is to say anything less than a Bankai itself. In doing so Corin absorbs a large portion of the spiritual pressure from the attack into himself. He typically uses this as a means to outlast his opponents, rather than crushing them outright.<br><br><em>Bankai</em>:<br><br>Very similar to his Shikai, however a set of ancient samurai armor appears and wraps around the Captain’s body along with his shield, all of which possess this defensive trait. Corin now has the ability to not only block the full-fledged attacks of the most powerful Bankai’s, but he likewise can absorb them. He does not directly gain power as a result of this, but it requires his opponents to use far more spiritual pressure to sustain the fight than is normally necessary. These attacks need not be directed offensive attacks. For instance if the Bankai was a radius affect that changed the environment, he could absorb this as well.<br><br>His primary tactic using his Bankai is to wear the opponent down as before until they are forced back into their Shikai state; tired and exhausted while he is still at his full strength.<br><br><em>History: </em><br><br>Corin’s life before becoming Captain, as he tells it, was quite uninteresting. He was considered an average student with an above average spiritual pressure who, given the right training might one day aspire to something great. However he was not a quick learner, and had difficulty mastering several techniques and abilities. The only thing that initially set him apart from the other students was his Zanpakuto.<br><br>Slowly he gained recognition within the 9th squad after years of committed and loyal service, battling Hollows and rogue Shinagami. Likewise the true potential of his Shikai was eventually discovered. He was given the title of Captain after discovering his Bankai. At the time he was the only trainee who had attained this level of control, and there was need for a replacement of the 9th Division Captain. He took the position happily, and has been doing this ever since. The man has been known to use himself often as an example of what can be obtained by hard work. He professes to trainees on their first day that he was not gifted with anything special, and yet is the second most Veteran Captain next to the Captain-Commander to date.<br><br>This is, in truth less than accurate as Corin was always gifted with Yama’s power.<br>

Chisoyo is proud if her attention complex, having need to want to keep tabs on everyone in her vicinity and then some.<br><br>~Hakuda. Although many believe that Chisoyo is primarily a bow adept, she has practiced Tai-Chi and learned to harness the power within the Open Palm.<br><br>~Reiatsu. It takes Chisoyo a ridiculous amount of Spiritual Pressure to sustain her bow capabilities, thus she has trained with her Captain in attempts of mastering this ability like he has. Though she has a long way to go, she still has a considerable grasp on this.<br><br>~Stealth. Her natural element is being quick, lethal, and unseen. She very rarely is seen in a one on one combat situation based in her combat class. As everyone knows, the things you don't see always Hirt the most.<br><br><strong>Weaknesses:</strong><br><br>~Blades. Chisoyo absolutely cannot engage in armed combat with a blade. Having barely passed formal training in swordsmanship and has lost every blades duel since.<br><br>~Anger. This woman is normally calm and dismissive to anyone that isn't her Captain. Though she isn't Extremely confrontational, Chisoyo has an anger issue that causes her to fly of the handle at ill opportune scenarios.<br><br>~Ihabara. Her loyalty to Ihabara is unwaverable. She is often mocked for supporting such an unstable captain, which she retorts with angry responses. She is reckless and will not devise a strategy of he is in danger.<br><br>~Enigma. Chisoyo absolutely loses it when she feels she is being ignored. She does not have very much to say but when she does, it seems important to her. To ignore her is to spit on her, the ultimate sign of disrespect.<br><br><strong>Zanpakutō:</strong><br><br><em>Name:</em>器用さ<br>Kiyō-sa (Meaning Dexterity)<br><em>Shikai</em>: "I can see clearly now!" When her spiritual pressure is set primarily towards her eyes and arms. She sacrifices her senses of taste and touch to enhance her vision. Also allowing multiple projectiles to fire at once. This also allows attachments from the Research Division. Bow and arrow converts to mechanical features as well as an expansion pack that is equipped to the backside to allow flight capabilities. Mixed with Spiritual pressure and Technology enhances accuracy, range, power, and flight. Interchangeable arrowheads that vary from explosive, hook shot, tranquilizer, and smokescreen. Spiritual pressure output fuels the cells in her expansion pack with gears mechanical wings for as long as her spirit is maintained.<br><em>Bankai</em>:&nbsp;<br><br><strong>History:</strong><br><br>Her parents were removed a few years after her birth. She was assigned to an unknown district before fleeing after realizing they were not her true parents. Her life became the shadows, skulking the alleyways and scaling rooftops in her spare time. As a child, her treasured possession was a slingshot she found in her old home. Chisoyo was bullied often by those more fortunate than she, which is where her anger complex stemmed from. One day she decided to help herself to food that did not belong to her, as retribution for being chastised by the golden opportunity children. She found herself outnumbered and had been given a collective beating for her actions.&nbsp;<br><br>It was then that she met Ihabara. His power had been far greater than any student she had laid eyes upon before. Her fondest memory is how elegantly his hair swayed as he punished those that had wronged her. Ihabara was her elder and offered to take her under her wing which she gladly accepted. She devoted herself to &nbsp;him and understood that he was not as crazy as everyone thought him. He rose through the ranks and soon he was out of her reach.<br><br>Chisoyo independently stupid the art of unarmed combat which had been her first actual foundation of combat. As her instructors informed her that she would need a weapon to protect herself, the bow had become second nature as it reminded her of the slingshot she still held dear. Her stealth and stability made her an excellent choice for termination missions, and she would ocassionally visit the Research Department for quick glances at Ihabara. Her field prowess had been enhanced due to the attachments that were provided by the 12th Division, and she ultimately requested to be assigned to their ranks after learning of Ihabara's promotion to Captain. Once again at her mentors side, she vowed nothing would keep her from protecting him like he had done for her.

The name Murea has become a household name amongst the trainee's for what could've been if they don't put the effort in.<br><br>Fear of water: Due to the nature of her death Murea has a intense fear of water for a reason she just can't remember and seizes up just at the contemplation of being thrown in again.<br><br><strong>Zanpakuto:</strong><br><em>Name:</em>Flare Baptism: In comparison to other Zanpakuto, Murea's form keeps to that of a short bladed tanto. When released the Flare Baptism takes the shape of a Kusari-gama with a meteor hammer on the end of the chain. <br><br><em>Shikai</em>"Kindle" When Murea releases Flare baptism the Kusari and the chain echo with a spirit fire echoing throgh to the main hammer which becomes ablaze with a potent soulfire that allows the hammer to damage the spirit as well as the Zanpakuto blade<br><br>Although the Flame Baptism has no particular style of techniques assosiated with it, it allows it's weilder to use Fire Kido's without incantation although they will always origonate from the ball of the weapon.<br><em>Bankai</em>Not applicable<br><br><strong>History:</strong> Murea Ashino was the tipical High school girl except due to her whimsical attitude she was kept back several years. She found herself unable to commit herself to anything besides her favorite hobby of dancing, it allowed her a vent, the only thing she ever felt herself good at, but the truth is that she just never stayed at something long enough to get good at it. During her 19th birthday Murea was traveling overseas when the ferry she was on capsized and sank with her aboard, it was not aslow death for her as she spent nearly an hour in the confines of a cabin that slowly filled with water until she eventually drowned.<br><br>When she was taken to Soul Society by a soul reaper, she spent the majority of her time dancing for the entertainment of others around district 32. It was here that during the chance passing of a Soul reaper that she was inducted into the Soul reaper academy. It was an bittersweet affair due to her continued flaw of her lack of motivation, she was origonally chosen because the soul reaper who found her had sensed a strong dormant reiatsu within her that would've been beneficial as a Soul reaper.<br><br>Barely graduating by the skin of her teeth, with exception that she was able to achieve Shikai at a above average rate. She was scouted out by the captain of the 1st squad who for some unknown reason to most took her as one of his squad members, even too this day many of the trainers at the Academy use Murea as an example of potential wasted.<br>
