Ryushin Chaozu [The Ultimate Support] [WIP]

Shinigami Template

Basic Information

- Name: Ryushin Chaozu
- Titles: The Ultimate Support
- Gender: Male
- Appearance Age: 25
- Age: Unknown
- Affiliation/Rank: Ryushin is the Captain of the 4th Division in the Gotei 13

- Appearance Description:

Ryushin is a relatively tall male standing at around 6'4. His height is both a great asset as well as a detriment. Because he is so tall, he can easily reach places others cannot and also fights very well with pole arms compared to those smaller than him.

Because he is so tall, he is sadly very thin. Some might even say he is somewhat skeletal with how thin he is. However daily exercises have allowed him to bulk up slightly and improve his health. His thin limbs are also accompanied by length, granting him decently sized arms and legs to strike targets at a range or simply reach the top shelf with minimal effort.

Hair colour? Blonde. Has it always been that colour? Actually no, it hasn't. Ryushin was born with deep black hair which over time became blonde at the age of 6 months and when he was 4, it became brown. Ever since then he has had brown hair but as a shinigami he decided to bleach it blonde. Not many people know this.

Ryushin often looks very casual. Be it his clothes, his expression or simply the way he decides to act. Ryushin might just wake up and wander around without doing anything to his appearance. he has occasionally turned up to meetings wearing the wrong shoes.

So Ryushin wears purple. Not much, but it's definitely a defining feature. Ryushin sports purple colours to match his blonde hair. The colours mix well and Ryushin is often referred to as 'stylish' yet simple. The purple colour is often seen on his headband and scarf.

Ryushins typical attire comes with a black shirt or sweater depending on the weather. It doesn't always effect him though as he will turn up to the beach in a sweater if he feels like it. He will just have to deal with overheating. Ryushin then finishes his look with a set of white paints. He has always commented on how he loves his white pants but hates how they are so easily made dirty.

Considering this man is the Captain of the 4th Division, he needs to make sure he has his Captains Haori at all times. However more often than not, he will forget to wear it because of the issues he claims it causes. However he will sling it over his shoulder if he needs to wear it somewhere else and will never be seen fighting in it. He somewhat considers his Haori a distraction and also a big bullseye that says 'come get me, I'm important'.

Personality

- Personality:

One word that easily describes Ryushin is 'Relaxed'. He is. He is really relaxed and will often not realise that a situation has elevated because he just doesn't feel like noticing it. This is a pretty bad trait for a man that has become a captain, but it doesn't mean he has outright forgotten his place. Ryushin will much prefer to sit back and sleep than draw his sword. However if he must, then by god will he fight until his last breath.

This is an example of Ryushins protective nature. He adores his squad and will stand at the front of his men to reassure them. To make sure that everyone in the 4th division knows that their leader is confident and proud to be their captain. Ryushin will raise his sword and protect those that he loves without word.

That is why Ryushin is considered a great leader. Get past his casual relaxed exterior and you will see a man that will push himself beyond his limits, break his body and reach out just to save someone from death. Since he has been in this situation for long enough, he has devised many sneaky tactics to utilise his abilities and defeat his opponents without anyone getting injured. He is just that kind of guy.

So back to Ryushins casual nature. Walk into his office and chances are he has fallen asleep on the couch. Prod him as much as you like, he wont be happy to wake up. If someone were to slam papers on his desk then he would most likely get the job done. Just not when you want it done and usually late. However what he does write is often always correct with a few grammatical errors.

Ryushin holds within him a competitive nature where he dislikes losing and relishes in victory. This has been a trait Ryushin gained from his life long chain of defeats and losses. Now that he has the power to save lives, he considers ever rescued soul a victory. Challenge him to a duel however and he will be all over it.

There are a few things Ryushin cannot deal with however, First of all, Ryushin is easily frightened and cannot be depended on when it comes to Sharks and Spiders. Sorry but that is just how it is. Drop a toy spider on his lap and he'll scream like a little girl and run. Take him anywhere near water and he'll freak out as if he's gonna get eaten by it. It's certainly a shame, but Ryushin has developed a phobia of water.

Then there is Ryushins self-depreciation. Sometimes he just doesn't believe he can do anything and will become convinced that his life is a waste of time. It's during these moments that Ryushin becomes incredibly depressed and will not listen to anyone as he wallows in self pity. This is usually what happens when he loses at something.

But you have to admire the guy. His dedication towards his squad is impassable. His eyes are always set on the prize and nothing will stop him from getting to where he wants to be. Those that know him could easily say he is very approachable, funny, great to be around and considerate.

Here is where we get onto his creative side. Ryushins office is half full of unhealthy food and snacks whilst the rest is pin ups of drawings and crude designs. Ryushin is a designer to heard and likes to scribble down notes and draw things he might want to write about later on. Some of the crap he comes up with are actually quite genius.

Now we come to Ryushins cravings. He adores chocolate. Who doesn't? Either way, sweet things smothered in chocolate is the way to win Ryushins heart. He will happily take a gift of candy any day of the week and its one method of curing his depression. Pretty much any food that is bad for you is on Ryushins dinner plate. However he has started to realise that eating all of this junk will likely be the death of him. Nonetheless, he chomps on.

If there is one thing Ryushin wishes he could have, it would be a family. His life is summarised by his actions and the way he protects his friends and squad with his life. However what he has never managed to gain is someone to love and someone to care for in his own special way. He believes that everyone will eventually get what they deserve. He just wishes that he will find his sooner rather than later.

Background History

- History:
Ryushins life has been a long deceitful journey of defeat after defeat. Not once did he ever win at anything. Be it video games, sports, simply trying to solve a puzzle or answer a question. Somebody would beat him to it. For a guy to have never experienced a shred of victory, Ryushin was very depressed through a huge amount of his human life. It was this that eventually forced the man to commit suicide on his birthday as even then he was incapable of blowing the candles on his cake without his brother doing it before him. Ryushin was miserable. He had no friends, he had no lover and he just couldn't stand up to his family. So he ended it all.

Now living his life as a spirit, he was incredibly lucky that he stumbled upon a shinigami so quickly. Seeing that Ryushins depression would easily cause him to become a hollow, the shinigami made short work in sending him to soul society. It was here that Ryushin had to learn to fend for himself as nobody else would. But since he always had terrible luck in real life, he believed he would be defeated time and time again. However it was not the case. In the spiritual world, victory was almost always assured. Ryushin stole from markets without being caught. He ran from dogs and lost them easily. He even managed to make a friend. With this in mind, he realised he might be able to accomplish anything.

Thus, the male decided to take his winning streak to the gotei. He wanted to do something with his life but he had no intention of being a farmer. Raising a sword, shooting kido and doing his best in his classes, Ryushin managed to pull through and finally win a brand new life as a Shinigami. He felt wonderful. He was happy for once. He had a new calling.

Ryushin decided to push himself even further with his trials. He joined the 4th division for one reason and that was to help those that felt like he did back then. He wanted everyone to taste victory once in a while. He yearned to share his happiness. And so he grew into a fine young man over his time in the squad. He made some friends and his life began to even itself out. He realised that he was no longer always winning but he was fine with that. He didn't need to win at everything he did. Otherwise how would he share the feeling of victory?

Eventually with hard work and a determined motive, Ryushin pushed himself into becoming the Captain of squad 4. He could not have been happier with himself. Never again will someone feel as down as he was. He will cherish everyone that he meets and he will stop those that try to take joy away from others.

He was finally alive.

In the year 2414, Ryushin was met by nozomi, the first quincy at the Northern gate in Soul Society. A large scale attack had devastated most of the world and he had been late to join in the defence. Ryushin alone attempted to fend off Nozomi, but his own powers were used against him as he underestimated his foe greatly. In the end, his spiritual pressure was locked and a lot of his power was destroyed. Over time and with special healing, he has slowly regained these traits of his. However, his Zanpakutō and himself have gained a new power. A gift from Nozomi of whom spared his life.

Zanpakutō

- Reiatsu Color:
Purple, yellow.

- Zanpakutô Spirit Name:
Onzon 'Chaozi' Purotekuto

- Zanpakutô Spirit Appearance:

Onzon is a tall woman with bright red hair and bright red eyes. She wears a classic Japanese school uniform with a white buttoned up shirt and a black skirt that doesn't exactly stretch down that far. Her general appearances makes her look somewhat stern and intelligent which isn't too far from the truth. Onzon has been known to be quite fierce and demanding but inside, she is very cute and likes to play around. Then again, some say he nature is slightly twisted as denoted by her red colour scheme. She is around 5'8 in height and doesn't weigh a great deal considering she is pretty slim.

- Inner World:
Ryushin isn't sure why his inner world is what it is and Onzon has never been able to explain it either. the two wander in an empty school in the evening as the sun sets in the distance. Everything looks like it usually would with chairs, desks, a chalk board and even lockers down the halls. None of the windows can open and none of the doors can either. However every door is already propped open by chairs, cleaning equipment etc. However if a door closes, it will not unlock.

- Sealed Zanpakutô Appearance :
Ryushins Zanpakutō takes on the form of your general Katana used by pretty much all Shinigami. Some do have variants but Ryushin likes to keep his powers a secret until they are necessary. SO, a simple katana with a purple handle and silver edge is fine for him. That is enough to fool anyone.

- Sealed Zanpakutô Abilities:
N/A

- Release:
Unite, Onzon!

- Shikai Description:


- Shikai Abilities:

Preservation Field: Ryushin creates around him a zone that he can set the size of between 0-20 metres that will last until Ryushin decided he no longer needs it of which it will shrink and vanish after 2 seconds. Everything within this zone is recorded and preserved perfectly. If anyone were to destroy something in this zone, then once the zone is removed in reality it would not have been destroyed. Ryushin can create this zone around objects using his hands alone.. If somebody died in the Preservation field, they will not come back to life once the zone is revoked. If Ryushin dies, the zone will instantly vanish too. For Ryushin to generate the biggest zone he can of 20 metres by stabbing the dirt beneath him with his Zanpakutō to imprint it with his reitsu. Ryushin is only capable of creating a single zone regardless of size. The zone prior to the new one must be removed first.

Ascension: Ryushins strikes with his sword at first feel really weak. Like, stupidly weak. As if he shouldn't be a captain at all. That is because everything is a trick. Ascension is an ability that causes Ryushins attacks to inflict no wound of pain whatsoever. Not even any force. However, as soon as the Preservation zone is removed or the target is moved out of it, every single violent action such as cutting and beating that Ryushin inflicted is applied at once. Usually, this sends his opponent into shock at the sudden explosion of damage. Ryushin can also cause this to trick his opponent, making them believe they are fine then the next minute bleeding uncontrollably.

- Bankai Description:

Onzon Purotekuto

- Bankai Abilities:

Ultimate Preservation: Ryushins Preservation field can now be created up to 50 metres and everything within it will be traced and recorded. Even if an animal dies within it's borders, they will be revived when the zone is removed. This includes any living being be it a tree, a human, a Demon, a Zanpakutō and more. Ryushin is only capable of creating a single zone regardless of size. The zone prior to the new one must be removed first. If Ryushin or anyone is capable of killing someone in this field, they will return when the zone vanishes. However they will still have died inside the zone, so the revived version will have experienced death. They will have also retained the energy they had upon entering the zone. Leaving the zone removes your influence it in so that when you re-enter, the energy given to the revived version of you will match the most recent entry.

Ultimate Protection: Ryushin must time his strike carefully. If he can land his strike against an opponents blade, he can completely nullify its knock back effects. If he would be hurled into the air by a punch to the face, he could block the cataclysmic punch with his pole and reduce the knockback to nothing as though he was hit by a feather. However the force will still be applied to him.

Haunted Scarf: Ryushins purple scarf around his neck suddenly becomes living. It will move on it's own and will happily claw at people nearby. The scarf also has the ability to extend itself, increasing in length to grab things. However it can only do this within a Preservation zone. The length is limited to the zone itself, meaning it can become as big as it wants within the zone even if it fills the 50'50'50 metre zone created.

Ultimate Ascension: Ryushins ascension ability now applies weight and force. This means Ryushin can whack his target and they will feel the impact. Then once they leave the zone, they feel the impact again on top of pain, cutting or any affliction ryushin caused with that strike.

- Kido Rundown:

Bakudo: The ability to bind and restrict, Ryushin has decent knowledge of how to perform many Bakudo spells without the need of incantations or rituals. However this is not Ryushins forte, thus he does have to speak to summon the powers of higher tiered Bakudo spells.

Hadō: Probably Ryushins weakest Kido, but still a force to be reckoned with. Ryushin is very capable when it comes to offensive Kido but he will hardly ever use it just because he does not believe it is as useful or powerful as his own fighting skill and power. As a result of this, he hasn't learned many at all.

Kaido: This is where Ryushin shines the brightest. His uncanny healing abilities are glorious and without error. Ryushin devoted his entire kido training to learning how to heal to the best of his abilities and that is what managed to push him into his captain position now. Although there are not many healing kido abilities known, the simple act of healing wounds by sharing reitsu is a skill easily mastered by Ryushin.
