PERSONALITY

- Personality:

Caring: For being a top ranked sniper of the Vandereich, Akira is surprisingly caring about what other people think of him, and this spills over to his teammates or the people who he loves. This comes from the fact his parents taught him how to love before how to fight, and that's how he became so caring. His parents taught him that being caring and loving matters, and that's a core part of his personality. His faith in a god and the teachings he learned taught him this as well. For someone like him, it would kill him more to not be caring than to kill someone, which would also kill him in his heart for committing murder. All in all, Akira is a good soul who wants to protect what he loves.

Strong in Belief: For Akira another core part of his personality is his strong beliefs, they can vary, but the core ones that one must not commit murder. What this means is that he can't go actively around killing people, it's not in his nature, unless he's told to as a part of his job and position in the Vandereich. Sadly enough, since he's so focused in that he has to keep killing and that just causes him more problems than normal. His heart is the core of his beliefs. In short if he's in love with someone, his beliefs in them center his relationship in a sense because they are what he goes by in that first few meetings until he gets to know them better. Beliefs drive his opinions as well so he reason why he'll fight for his beliefs is because that's what makes Akira well Akira.

Diligent: Akira once he's told to do something, or knows he needs to do something will keep at that goal until it's finished. This means that he will keep on doing what he needs to do until it's satisfactory to himself and or the person who gave him that contract. Unlike what most people think he's very keen on his situations and that makes him that much more dangerous, because he can keep to a goal, and not give up on it until he has to or he knows it's useless to go on, and so he breaks those goals away and gets new goals. Diligence also is helped by the fact he has a lot of focus on jobs, which spills over to why he's a very dangerous sniper.

Humble: For how incredibly skilled Akira is with his craft of fighting, he's very quiet and humble about his skills. He tends to talk down about his skills because he doesn't like boasting nor does he like drawing needless attention to himself. If he needs attention he'll let his actions do the talking instead of flapping his lips like a jackass. Sadly enough, he can be too humble and too downplaying of his skills making him seem really weak when he's quite powerful in some aspects. Although in speech he'd seem arrogant and that's not what he wants to present, as in that he tries to talk as humbly as possible. Even when he became captain of the Jagdarmee, he was considered to be very dangerous and Akira down played his skills keeping to his code of humility in success.

Outspoken: Akira tends to not voice his opinions often because of his beliefs that actions speak louder than any words could ever bring. Even in conversation, if he wants to prove how wrong a person is, he won't point out with words, he'll point it out with their actions causing them to look more silly than expected to allow them to have their egg on their face because they didn't pay attention to Akira, who's surpirsingly sneaky when he wants to prove a point to a person or persons depending on the situation he'll voice his opinion when it's absolutely necessary otherwise it'll be subverted and he'll just wait until he can demonstrate just how wrong a person is. This paired with his diligence is why he's the captain of the Jagdarmee of the Vandereich.

HUMAN SKILLS

- Human Skills:

High Endurance/Deep Pools: For a Quincy, he's unusually resilient and can last a long time. The reason for this, as a child he was crafted to be a good tracker and have deep pools so he can keep to the hunt so to speak.. They altered his internal control and storage of Reishi to be much deeper than a normal human, but when push comes to shove, he can be outlasted by those people who can compress their energy down, seeing as his already around 55% compressed naturally, only allowing them to use 45% normally until he releases it in his forms.

Athletic: Since as a child he played a lot of sports, and worked out as a teenager, he's been pretty skinny and lanky, but he can out jump a good few people, although he hasn't learned how to fly, although it would be cool if he could. He can take a good fall, but even then that causes a fair strain on his body, and that's another thing he had to take into play. He's build is made to be fast, acrobatic, and hard hitting. Taking into the account of his light weight, using his momentum and his control over his mind to make his athleticism a bit more scary. Since he has great focus he can control his athleticism to the point where he can manipulate his physics to an extent to make himself dangerous in close ranged combat.

Insane Focus: As a master marksman, he can focus very well this is inspired by the fact that he can push himself through his high endurance and athleticism to get the goals that he wants to achieve. Also, tied into his focus is his skill of tracking, which makes him effective as the captain of the Jagdarmee, which is the hunter/tracker part of the Vanderich. Sadly, if he takes enough pain or is distracted in the proper way he can lose his focus just like anyone else. Akira's focus is one of the most dangerous things about himself besides the fact he's a master marksman and is able to snipe people out of the air like it's a joke. His focus allows him to pick apart the situation calmly with no reactions.

Master Marksman: His steady aim is something to not screw around with. One of the things his father taught him besides being very athletic is to be very accurate, he's so accurate that most black operations snipers pale in comparison to his accuracy. Being that most of his skills are long range abilities, and to compensate for that he has to be able to point and shoot, and so this takes a steady aim and quick scoping skills. He's been known to shoot targets from a good 2-3 miles away with a handgun and no one really knows why he can, but it's said that he's skilled enough to shoot off a bird about a mile in the air with no problem and not be stopped by the wind interference using it to help guide the bullet when he doesn't with his own natural skill of controlling the path of his bullets.

Gunkata: Using close range combat skills, plus manipulation of his weapons allows him to fight with using his hands and feet while shooting to manipulate not only the path of the bullets which he can do naturally, but to improve the rate of curvature allowing him to shoot his arrows in virtually any direction with no problems set to himself, because the nature of his Gunkata allows him to shoot and do close range combat with utter ease. This his main form of combat when he can't do his usual and do his position as a sniper, because sometimes one can't snipe and has to get up close and personal with people.

Spacial Manipulation: While he can use his Quincy powers he had a strange one from being a human, and it's called manipulation of space. As in he manipulates the boundaries of space to open and collapse them, but typically he collapses space and begins to decay it by causing it to implode upon itself. This manipulation came before he was realized as a full Quincy. His skills of this flourished because Quincy use a lot of zoning and range to keep their foes either at bay or in range of their skills. This just allowed him to basically manipulate those boundaries. As this stands he can use this with his soul weapon. Space can be defined in many ways, as something that exists to hold something, or space as in the big void that separates the worlds from each other. Since there's so much space there's a lot he can do with this large amount of space. It doesn't mean his space can't be messed with, it means that someone that had better spacial manipulation and control would have to over take his skills because of the sheer fact he's the only quincy with that much control over space that he can easily manipulate it not to open them, but what he's mainly known for which is collapsing space and breaking it down around the person or persons to seal them into a rift if you will. This is also how he's able to travel from place to place. He can make weapons and defensive items like shields and walls from the space that he's collapsing on the fly, but typically he'd like to keep to his soul Weapon.

Spacial Drain Creating a bracelet that has six points that extends from his right wrist and using his left arm to support it, Akira can create a large beam that collapses the space around someone causing it to implode while that's going on the person is getting consistent damage from the beam, if they are caught into the AoE of the beam the area collapses around them much like a prison would and holds them into there until 2 turns when the attack is over, or if they can break out and use enough energy to counteract the beam that's hitting them. Akira during this attack is standing still because the amount of focus it takes for him to control the beam and the spacial collapse around the person to not instantly crush them or to make it harder for them to break out of. This takes balance to do because of the nature of the attack is to suppress and to destroy at the same time. This attack can only be used in a thread 3 times with a cool down of at least 2 posts. This is very powerful attack to use.

Boundary Manipulation: Unlike his unique Spacial Manipulation which is the space that's being manipulated. Boundary focuses on keeping things in that created space, and in the case of Akira, he uses this in tandem to allow him to shoot his attacks from every single angle possible, while trying to keep the person zoned in a certain way so that his attacks are harder to go against and counter in general. While he can't keep everything out of the boundaries that he temporarily creates while in battle, he can't manipulate other peoples boundaries because it's outside of his range and control forcing him to manipulate the boundaries created by the spaces he collapses and opens during the battle. This also helps him from getting mesed up from world to world because he can keep himself safe because he's actively keeping his boundaries from being invaded from things that would mess with him. With his boundary manipulation he can snipe through areas because the bullets are passing through their own boundaries allowing him to keep his bullets at their top speed and power.

QUINCY SKILLS

Heilig Pfeil (Holy Arrows): are the primary attack used by Quincy. It is basically the same as an average arrow, but if the arrows are shot continuously they will eventually injure the wielders hands. The arrows can be created by collecting Reishi, absorbing Reiryoku from an opponent or gathering spirit energy, giving the Quincy many ways to form their bow and arrow. The power of the arrows vary in power and size, while some arrows are more powerful than others, for every quincy it is different, and normally comes down to skill, since the total amount of Arrow’s fired also showcases the amount of skill, while those who use only a few arrows at a time have more of a impact than others. Depending on what one spirit weapon is, the Arrow shape can change, as if one was a blade, then the arrows fired would appear as blades. For Akira this is a natural and passive thing so in general his arows always hurt more, and appear as bullets with "casings" falling out of the chambers of his guns subverting the injuries to his hands because he shoots them and doesn't have to load them by hand.

Reishi Control: Much like original powers that are different to each and every Quincy. For example one has the power to change form and gain the ability and appearance to fight his target, while other that can change his appearance, but only is able to copy his target memory and personalty. One own control over reishi can also account for how many arrows they can fire at once, as well how much Reishi they can use at once, also controls there use of Hirenkyaku. The more powerful a Quincy is in this trait, the more powerful there arrows and ability are. Original powers created from reishi control are known as "Zet to". Ziamchi Quincy lost the use of "Zetto" Akira has pretty good control over his arrows already because of the sheer amount of Reishi he can use.

Shadows: Using "Shadows", A Quincy can disappear and use a form of teleportation that allows them to quickly leave a place, reappearing almost instantly in another. However, this skill was thought to be limited to those of the old style Quincy. However Modern age Quincy are known to be able to perform this. Akira can do this pretty effortlessly making almost a skillful manipulation of his shadows to do more than just disappear and teleport around.

Hirenkyaku: An advanced Quincy moving technique. It allows for high speed movements by riding on the flow of reishi created below the user's feet. To perform the technique, the user gathers spiritual particles under their feet and rides them to the desired location. Like the air-walking skill displayed by most Arrancar and Shinigami, it can also be used to hover or fly for long distances. Mayuri compliments Uryū on being able to use this technique at such a young age, suggesting that it is difficult to master. Hirenkyaku enables Quincies to keep up with, and overpower faster opponents depending on the user's skill. The use of this technique aided Uryū as he defeated a seated Shinigami officer, a Números Arrancar, and even a Privaron Espada in combat. However, there is apparently more use for the technique than simply moving quickly. Upon entering Hueco Mundo through the Garganta, Ichigo Kurosaki and Chad noticed that Uryū apparently had a platform of reishi under his feet. Ichigo and Sado had trouble controlling their reiatsu on the path they were given, while he used an instance of Hirenkyaku in order to make his own individual platform. Later on Uryū used the technique to elevate himself and Orihime Inoue through the hole Ulquiorra Cifer created in the artificial sky, and above the dome of Las Noches. He reveals that he only recently realized he could use the technique outside Garganta, and in Hueco Mundo itself, halfway to Las Noches. He also laments the fact that if he had known sooner, he might have been of some use on the battlefield. It is currently unknown if Ishida, or any other Quincy, can use this variation of Hirenkyaku outside of Hueco Mundo, within Soul Society, or the Human World. Depending on one skill with it, can show how long they can use this before tiring out.

To go with their bow, the Quincy have a number of rare special techniques to give them an edge in combat:

Blut (血装 (ブルート), burūto; German for "Blood", Japanese for "Blood Guise") is an advanced Quincy technique that grants one inhuman defensive and offensive capabilities.By making reishi flow directly into their blood vessels, a user of this technique is able to drastically increase their attack and defense power. However, despite the significant danger this potentially presents to one's opponents, Blut possesses one major flaw in that the independent forms of the technique for attack and defense operate using two different reishi systems, meaning they cannot be employed simultaneously or else they suffer all their veins bursting at once, killing them instantly. However some are able to use both at once but not for short periods of time, as they start to burst their veins. This is a pure blood Quincy ability, Quincys that are fused with a Ziamchi are unable to use this.

Blut Vene (静血装 (ブルート・ヴェーネ), burūto vēne; German for "Blood Vein", Japanese for "Stilled Blood Guise") The defensive form of Blut that grants the user inhuman durability, represented by a faint pattern tracing the veins beneath the surface of their skin, which is only visible on the afflicted area when struck. If consciously kept at full power, even attacks delivered by a Shinigami's Bankai can potentially be negated completely. However, despite the considerable defense afforded by this technique, it seemingly isn't absolute and can be torn using sufficient power. As overtime the defense shall be worn down due to the nature of Blut Vene. This massive defense also has time limits, depending on the level of skill with this, it can vary to short periods of time, to lengthy amount, but they need periods of rest which can be risky if they are fighting a foe that can attack rapidly.

Blut Arterie (動血装 (ブルート・アルテリエ), burūto aruterie; German for "Blood Artery", Japanese for "Moving Blood Guise") The offensive form of Blut that grants the user inhuman attack power. This technique is the only thing capable of ensuring that a Quincy's attacks are able to significantly damage a Bankai-wielding Shinigami. One notable use of this is applying it towards physical attacks as well as coating it on there own arrows to increase the damage output to that of a Bankai wielding captain. This is a vary powerful skill that shouldn't be taken lightly .

Ransōtengai (乱装天傀; lit. "heavenly wild puppet suit", "disheveled paradise puppet" in the Viz translation): This is a high level technique that allows the user to control their body parts using strings of spirit energy controlled by their brain, forming lines or strings out of countless reishi. By using this technique, the user can control their body as one would a puppet, allowing them to move freely despite paralysis, broken limbs, or any other force that would impede normal movement. It was originally created to allow elderly Quincy to fight effectively, and is rare enough that Mayuri had never encountered a Quincy (out of the 2661 that he examined or studied) who could use it before Uryū. Mayuri stated it as "the most powerful technique for the Quincy," but he did not know of the Quincy: Letzt Stil, which means as far as Mayuri knew it was the strongest.

- Quincy Items:
Hollow Bait: This item is a small, coin-shaped disk that attracts Hollows when crushed. When used by Uryū, the bait, in combination with Ichigo's powerful spiritual pressure, was able to draw a Gillian-class Menos out of Hueco Mundo.

Seele Schneider (魂を切り裂くもの (ゼーレシュナイダー), Zēreshunaidā; German for "Soul Cutter", Japanese for "That Which Slits the Soul"): The Seele Schneider is a thin sword that can be fired similarly to an arrow. It's much longer than a standard arrow and functions something like a chainsaw: the reishi of its blade vibrate at ultra-high frequencies, loosening the molecular bonds between any spirit matter it cuts so that the Quincy user may easily absorb the freed reishi.

Ginto Skills
Heizen (聖噬 [ハイゼン], haizen; German for "Heating", Japanese for "Sacred Bite") Heizen instantly gouges and purges whatever is enclosed in the space within the four tossed gintōs. It is tremendously effective even against Menos Grandes. This technique creates a transparent, rectangular beam of energy from the silver tubes which then slices through the opponent. It is activated by the command: "Feel the wrath of battle and accept this sacred chalice - Heizen!"(大気の戦陣を杯に受けよ)

Gritz (五架縛 [グリツ], gurittsu; Japanese for "Five Rack Ties"): A film of Reishi emitted from a thrown Ginto surrounds the enemy. This technique forms a man-sized pentagonal Quincy cross which envelops its target. It is activated by the command: "A silver rod strikes the five-fingered stone bed - Gritz!" (銀鞭下りて五手石床に堕つ)

Wolke (緑杯 [ヴォルコル], vorukōru; German for "Cloud", Japanese for "Green Cup"): Cushioning the impact of a fall with Reiryoku contained inside a Ginto. This technique uses a silver tube to create a large blast. It is activated by the command: "Tilt the goblet to the west - Wolke!" (盃よ西方に傾け)

Sprenger (破芒陣 [シュプレンガ], shupurenga; German for "Explosion", Japanese for "Ripping Grass Formation"): This technique uses five Seele Schneiders to create a pentagon-shaped seal which, when activated, causes a massive explosion within its borders. When an object or a person stands within the middle of the Pentagon the placement of the fifth Seele Schneider can trap them by wrapping and binding their legs to the ground with dense reishi. The Seele Schneiders function as accumulators, gathering the necessary amount of reishi to create the explosion. The liquid inside a silver tube acts as the trigger. The preparations for the technique combined with the charging time for the Seele Schneiders make its use in battle impractical unless the user has a partner that can stall to buy time, or has enough strength to create the formation while under attack.

Granate (lit. Grenade in German): A technique where the reiatsu stored in the Gintō is used to cause a large blast; much like a grenade. To activate it, one must add a drop of their own reiatsu to the Gintō, as well as say the command "Feel the blast with your soul, Granate." To explode, the Gintō must be tossed at the opponent, and will explode when it is close enough to a source of reiatsu or when it comes into contact with any surface.

Einweben (lit. Webbing in German): As suggested by its name, Einweben is a binding Gintō technique. It creates a large, man-sized energy web that is useful for either trapping or deterring an opponent. It is activated by the command "The silver strands bind you to your place, Einweben." This technique can either be used up close or by throwing the Gintō at the opponent.

Licht Regen: First more Reishi than usual are stored inside the bow, before the Quincy uses Hirenkyaku to get over the enemy, and release a barrage of arrows at once. The number of Arrows depends on the kind of bow used.

- Quincy Cross: Akira's Quincy Cross is in the shape of a star with a cross. The star is a goldish yellow in color and the cross is a silver in color. It can rest in the middle of his palm with ease. He can easily manifest his weapon without this, but he carries it on him just in case that he needs to. Unlike most quincys, he developed his spiritual weapon quite quickly causing him to be dangerous from the start. His Cross is hidden under his right sleeve usually. The Chain itself is a black in color because of the forger wanted to keep a balance of colors.

SPIRIT WEAPON

- Type: Dual Handguns.

- Appearance: Akira Shimotsuki [0-4++] 68bd3c04-5bd0-45a6-8bfc-125a7c50b75e_zps75288b03

Akira Shimotsuki [0-4++] 68bd3c04-5bd0-45a6-8bfc-125a7c50b75e_zps75288b03

- Reishi Color: Dark Blue.
- Note: Akira tends to walk around with his Spirit Weapon summoned because that's the most comfortable thing for him to do.

Unique skill:
Spacial Collapse: This comes from him honing his skills with the spiritual weapon manifestation. This allows him to use his arrows to collapse an area that's hit with by the arrows to cause the implosion of the area affected by it. The more arrows that are shot the more they can implode the area in question. This effect can only last while the attack is going on and if the attack is changed then the implosion drops making it capable for him to not collapse if enough pressure was placed on by more than one person. This allows him to also add much more distance to his arrows giving him the sniper moniker when he's only using handguns. Also the farther away he is while using it the weaker it is without using this the farther away the more stronger the attacks are.

BANKAI

- Name: Shadowy Death (死ヲ刻ム影)
- Appearance: Akira Shimotsuki [0-4++] SomaSchicksalfull291114_zps25783857

Akira Shimotsuki [0-4++] SomaSchicksalfull291114_zps25783857

- Abilities:

Heavy Manipulation of Space: As in he can implode and explode space while in bankai and redirects himself while using the manipulation of space to go through areas with more effectiveness. While he's manipulating space it drains on him faster because of the fact it's not something for a Quincy to be able to use. He got this from his parents placing this into him 2-3 years ago forcing him to learn the powers of it and being able to manipulate it as if it was a part of him. He tends to not use space manipulation because of the dangerous properties of it. as if he's not careful with the manipulation of space he could cause serious to fatal damage to himself because Space is a very precious thing, and abuse of it could kill him as well as the people around him since he's messing with the fabric of space. This is used by the weapon that's given to him, which seems to shift between a large broadsword and a shield, but as he's gotten stronger it's able to shift into a scythe and twin swords. Typically it's used as a broadsword, twin swords and or a Scythe. When he's using it upon the broadsword it's able to break guards much easier because it's constantly able to implode the space that the defenses are rooted on making them weak and unable to support themselves because of the destruction of space.

Extreme Shadow Manipulation: While he's able to manipulate shadows on his own due to his heritage, this allows him to use them to the fullest not just allowing him to teleport but also manipulate the shadows into attacks and allow him to use the full extent of his attacks with this allowing the arrows he shoots from his gun to teleport but this only can happen from long distances, Also while he's using this, he can use his guns or the weapon that came with it. When the weapon is used from the bankai, his speed is doubled because of the passive manipulation of shadows to get into close ranged. This is something that he learned while training the usage of this bankai. His bankai allows him the better understanding of the shadows he uses as weapons in battle.

Increased Boundary Manipulation: Unlike his unique Spacial Manipulation which is the space that's being manipulated. Boundary focuses on keeping things in that created space, and in the case of Akira, he uses this in tandem to allow him to shoot his attacks from every single angle possible, while trying to keep the person zoned in a certain way so that his attacks are harder to go against and counter in general. While he can't keep everything out of the boundaries that he temporarily creates while in battle, he can't manipulate other peoples boundaries because it's outside of his range and control forcing him to manipulate the boundaries created by the spaces he collapses and opens during the battle. This also helps him from getting mesed up from world to world because he can keep himself safe because he's actively keeping his boundaries from being invaded from things that would mess with him. With his boundary manipulation he can snipe through areas because the bullets are passing through their own boundaries allowing him to keep his bullets at their top speed and power. While he's using Bankai he can attack with the boundaries as in the spacial reflections are now harder to break out because he has more control over the Boundaries that he manipulates. This starts a constant low drain on him because it's the first time he's actively manipulating.

VOLLSTÄNDIG

- Name: Munashii no Kuinshi Forushutendihhi or Leere Gottes

- Appearance: Akira Shimotsuki [0-4++] Haseofull267945_zpsa6cbcaee

Akira Shimotsuki [0-4++] Haseofull267945_zpsa6cbcaee

- Abilities: Complete Reishi Dominance: Which gives one the capability of absorbing a large amount of Reishi at the tip of his/her spirit weapon to use in a powerful attack. In this form, a Quincy's absorption of reishi has exponentially increased. He/She is capable of absorbing the trees, sand, rocks, and even the buildings in Hueco Mundo or Soul Society, as well as most energy attacks, but this skill depends greatly on one’s reishi control.

Spirit Weapon: A Quincy can produce a spirit weapon made entirely of reishi from the gauntlet on his/her left/right wrist. He/She can use this weapon for both melee attacks and to fire their. Quincy arrows.

Enhanced Spiritual Awareness: A Quincy is capable of sensing to a far greater level, allowing them to surpass any ability that would hides one's presence if he/she is more powerful than the opponent in question.

Enhanced damage and defense output: Much like Blut Vene and Blut Arterie, The Quincy in this form have their powers at their very peek, so this factor varies on the Quincy in question.

Abilities
Complete Spacial Collapse: This comes from him honing his skills with the spiritual weapon manifestation. This allows him to use his arrows to collapse an area that's hit with by the arrows to cause the implosion of the area affected by it. The more arrows that are shot the more they can implode the area in question. This effect can only last while the attack is going on and if the attack is changed then the implosion drops making it capable for him to not collapse if enough pressure was placed on by more than one person. This allows him to also add much more distance to his arrows giving him the sniper moniker when he's only using handguns. Also the farther away he is while using it the weaker it is without using this the farther away the more stronger the attacks are. While this would remain true if he was using this normally, while in Volstanding, his attacks are doubled in strength and speed, and the rate of collapse is much faster. This drain is less because it's a full usage of his skills not being suppressed by his own limiters.

High Speed Aerial combat: From his basic manipulation of space he has the ability to fly without using something like Hirenkyakyu. Basically his reishi control and manipulation is to the limit and allows him to fly fully as if he had wings. Since humans can't fly naturally and Quincys are technically Humans they can't fly normally so this allows him to not be restricted to the ground like most Quincys are stuck into, although this comes with the downside of controlling the high speed combat in the air. Which isn't a natural thing for Akira to do normally.

Full release of his reserves: He naturally has his energy capped at a certain limit because of the dangerous natures of his own attacks and in short his reserves are uncapped allowing him to keep this form active because he's capable of using the reserves that he has naturally and that allows him to keep up with the problems of using his Volstanding for so long, and that's how come he's capable of using his powers like that. Although it's a large amount he can definitely use enough energy to exhaust himself from a full fight started out in Volstanding until it ends, and even then he can recover pretty fast, but it does take time for him to heal up from the full usage of energy because it's hard on his body and can be dangerous to his health if he abuses his body too much because of the sheer amount of manipulation of energy that he's using and known for in this form.

Master Shadow Manipulation: While he's able to manipulate shadows on his own due to his heritage, this allows him to use them to the fullest not just allowing him to teleport but also manipulate the shadows into attacks and allow him to use the full extent of his attacks with this allowing the arrows he shoots from his gun to teleport but this only can happen from long distances, Also while he's using this, he can use his guns or the weapon that came with it. When the weapon is used from the bankai, his speed is doubled because of the passive manipulation of shadows to get into close ranged. While in Volstanding, taking this ability way from his Zanpakutō which adapted this from the manipulation of space this pushes his speed to three times his limit, and allows his shots to be double the speed and impact, but it costs heavily on his stamina.

Complete Boundary Manipulation: Unlike spacial manipulation which is the space that's being manipulated. Boundary focuses on keeping things in that space, and in the case of Akira, he uses this in tandem to allow him to shoot his attacks from every single angle possible, while trying to keep the person zoned in a certain way so that his attacks are harder to go against and counter in general. While he can't keep everything out of the boundaries that he temporarily creaates while in battle, he can't manipulate other peoples boundaries because it's outside of his range and control forcing him to manipulate the boudaries created by the spaces he collapses and openes during the battle. This also helps him from getting mesed up from world to world because he can keep himself safe because he's actiely keeping his boudaries from being invaded from things that would mess with him. With his bounary manipulation he can snipe through areas because the bullets are passing through their own boundaries allowing him to keep his bullets at their top speed and power. When in Volstanding however, He can manipulate the boundaries around him at his fullest strength and power allowing insane combinations of his shots to go in directions that he had only imagined in terms of being lucky so to speak. He can passively run through boundaries in this, and not have to worry bout them affecting him because he's subconsciously manipulating the boundaries around him at full strength and power. Note This drains on his stamina regardless if he's using it or not because of the constant usage of the boundary in this state.

Historical

- Background: As a child Akira Shimotsuki was considered to be a very bright child in terms of usage of human skills and the strange thing of being able to walk through spaces as a child. His parents noticing this began to rush him to learn his Quincy heritage and start learning how to use the Quincy cross. His Parents were pure blood Quincys and they were all about learning and training their son to be useful for the Vandereich. So they began to train Akira in the quincy arts and skills. As he grew older. He began to go to school full time, and learn about the outside world a bit more. That's when he came in contact with his first hollow, and his first defeating of a hollow. He didn't know it, but he thought he had you know purified the hollow. He didn't know he destroyed it well until he explained to his parents that he had used his powers in the outside world. He felt great sadness from this making him realize just how dangerous of a power he had as a Quincy. He knew about this power all the time, and yet he didn't lie or hold it against them for his heritage, he just chose it as such, and deal with it.

As he got older and began to get into more control of his powers he was given a gift by his parents. it was a strange broadsword, and at first he felt a surge in his power a strange surge in his skills. As he began to train the weapon he began to learn about the shinigami and the power he had gained, it was called Bankai, but it felt strange to him. That power it felt that it went against his own, as if it was countering his powers, but yet it felt good, because it seemed to enhance the powers that he had currently instead of nerfing the powers he had as human before learning his quincy powers. As he began to learn these powers more, he learned that the shadow skills that he had seemingly had grown from the simplistic usages he had before. As he got stronger he was approached by the Vandereich for his skills. At first he was all for it then when he began to get missions he began to hate the work, but since he was respected and he was too quiet to just say I quit. So he'd continue with his jobs until he got a captain position, and that's when he began to voice his opinions more, but he did his jobs without fail. Continuing on he entrolled for his last year in high school and has begun looking for a career.

He wants to pretty much help people, but he doesn't know how because what he has learned so far has made him more of a weapon than a person who could go and heal people, but he doesn't know and so his mind is stuck on knowing on what he knows and not on the unknown, but he wants to learn more about himself and he's been pushing his limits lately wondering what he could do with what he knows to help people. Furthermore, his heart and soul has been all weird because of the feelings he's been feeling and trying to understand himself more and more. There are many questions that he has to get answers for and so he's stepping out into the world to learn and to know what the world really holds for him, and other worlds that exist that would be waiting for him. He doesn't give up from his goals and so his goal now is to understanding who he is now. So he'll walk to the edge and learn what he can do when he's pushed. He works for the Vandereich, but his true goals remain unknown for the time being because of the strain of being in a school, and working for a group that destroys souls makes him hard to understand this feeling of incompleteness that he's been having for a long time, and he wonders if it's a true feeling or is he overreacting to his own senseless wandering.

Approving of starting with Vollständig requires admin approval.

So, unfortunately, Crow's check is non applicable and I'm afraid I'll have to move the app back to unchecked. Sorry for the mess up.
