» Personality:

The girl in her past committed some dark deeds and thus now she bears the weight of these deeds on her shoulders everyday. To this length the girl longs to show that she is not evil. Because of her past Mel can often be cold towards others her ideals of helping people always comes first, but never has she met someone she would just open up too as thought they were friends. In fact Mel fears the entire concept of friends thinking that they will dislike her if they ever really go to know here, for this reason shes often seen pushing people away trying not to let them get involved with all of her problems. the girls utterly abrasive and harsh shell is truly only a front though as when one gets to know her they'd soon find the girl is someone who really cares about the actions she takes and regrets the mistakes she made, even going so far as to say she hates herself more than anyone else. Unfortunately despite her struggle for change Mel is trying to change her ways become someone others can depend on, someone who strives to help, unfortunately this is easier said than done as often instincts and past nature truly get the better of her, her anger even pushing to conrol her.

She is a girl who desires friendship a lot more than she lets on, Mel is on the inside really lonely and wants someone who doesn't make her feel like a monster anymore. To this point when someone gets close to Mel shell fight to protect that person to the bitter end, risking her very life to help her comrades. Because of her lack of care for her own health to save the lives of other she despises those who would allow their precious friends to be harmed and hates anyone who spills blood needlessly, though it isn't uncommon for her to resort to such a tactic when she experiences one of her slips in judgment, making her willing to take a route of harsh intentions for the greater good, be it harming an innocent for answers or killing someone to save many more, though none of this could ever be done without her sinking further into her pool of self loathing.

When in battle the girl though trying to control the situation would soon find herself lost in the darkness, she turns to bring down her opponents looking to stop them at every turn ensuring that if anyone was to die it wouldn't be her. To this level she tries to control her lasting hatred but as it wells up she quickly finds herself lost without mercy often times punishing further even after the fight is over. After a fight its near impossible to control herself without causing a massive stress inducement that can even trigger a heart attack if not treated properly, the adrenaline from the fight to much and finding it hard to calm herself. Shes often found a remedy for this is alcohol, a thing she hates but a medicine all the same. During a fight she hates cheap talk thinking its nothing, insults are only skin deep in her eyes and the ones spouting the words are often someone who's so hell bent on fighting they will manipulate someone else to feel the same way and finding a trigger to set her off is incredibly difficult.

When it comes to the idea of relationships Mel is always quite shy, she never knew why anyone would like her and doesnt want anyone else to be hurt because of her and thus often questions what is happening. Oftentimes shes been left wondering what people expect out of her as she is truly unsure of just what love is. She struggles with things such as seduction never really wanting to draw others closer to her as she prefers to keep her distance and enjoy others being happy rather than pursue her happiness to trample over another.

» Background:

A girl touched by snow, Mel was born in the cold nation of Russia she grew up the daughter of a broken family, her mother Selina often calling her the child of a man who was a soul still searching for his place among all the death. Selina however loved this little girl and assured her so did her father despite never being there and never knowing her, never once would she let her little girl feel let down, she loved Mel more than anything in this world and made it clear every day. Though they weren't rich Mel never seemed to mind with her mother, she was happy and that's all the 2 of them cared about.

However come her 4th birthday everything would change, her mother decided to take her to the place she once called home. When they arrived Mel couldn't really tell what her mother loved so much about this place, after all blood stained the wood and it was near rotted to death .... the only thing that remained was the bleed and sheets Selina now sat with her face pressed against like it was the softest of all things, like it was something so precious it even brought her to cry. Mel hugged her mother showing her she was there never wanting to let g of this moment, however this place was not just a house this lace was marked with death.

Hollows ripped through the roof, the walls even ripping apart the floorboards. Selina screamed for Mel to run both of them crawling from this place into the frozen lands around them. They ran across the ice field trying to escape these beasts, they nipped at Selinas heels ripping them open and forcing her to fall. Mel turned to try and head back and save her mother but the ice caved in. Mel fell into a watery domain trapped bellow the tundra fighting to escape. But through this ice she saw it, her mother knelt there being ripped apart by these monsters, she cried out but no-one could hear her not while she lay in this icy abyss. The hollows dug through her flesh, Selina offering little resistance as she looked at her daughter trying to tell her it was alright and Mel would be okay.

As they had torn through most of Selina these beasts ran, something above had scared them .... what could scare beasts like this? From the snow Mel saw a man step forth to her mother embracing the dying woman before impaling her with his sword. Mel was shocked, scared, she had lost all that was important to her and now as this man trod along the ice she began to fade to black .. perhaps this was the end. The cold would take her the emptiness shrouding her and at the edge of the darkness stood a figure, Mel always liked to think it was her mother waiting for her but she knew it wasn't the case .... this man stood the darkness itself afraid of him the skeletons and death embracing him like a brother... this was her father.

A hand ripped through the ice dragging her out of this end, she coughed trying to regain any sense of breath. Everything was hazy the wold seemed dim the one thing she could see clearly though was the clutch of death lacing the man her drew her from the water, the stains of evil and blood on his hands ... this was the Wolf. Mel crawled trying to reach her mother, the man walking from this place not so much as a second look. She held no resent in her heart this was a mercy he had shown and it was something she couldn't bare. She sat for hours, just staring stroking her mothers hair as she sang the lullaby that Selina had sung of a night time ... the same echoing song that wolf had sung to Selina before her death.

Soon after she walked through the town drenched and blood covering her, the girl had hunted and killed every hollow that had attacked her and her mother taking their skulls as rewards and resting them like flowers on her mother's grave, it seemed her fathers curse and excessive need for violence had gripped her too. The 4 year old girl had sunk her fangs into blood and she would come out a beast waiting for the next hunt. As she stood in her shower the red running through her toes the girl couldn't help but hate herself. the girl grew into a very unhappy child believing that her father had abandoned her and her mother had died because of her. The girl grew up with self confidence issues and a tendency to prefer isolation among her peers. As she grew the girl would often visit the site of her mothers grave, spending some of the coldest days just sitting by her tombstone in silence. It was one of these days when the girl finally snapped changing from what she once was to the monster that she tried to keep deep inside after that horrid day.

The girl lost it, she had kept everything inside and eventually it all fell apart. She found herself standing in a room of corpses her fist dripping blood and he teeth having sunk into flesh she was driven to the brink of hell her anger and the darkness enveloping her and only wanted to bring more destruction. These people weren't monsters, no they were just simply doing a job retrieving a vital piece of information someone wanted ... who she never found out, but simply to say they pushed her from her normal self to ... this. Abused her, tormented her even going so far to insult her mother and her weakness.... Mel's mind was rendered a mess as these men dragged her away preforming tests implanting something they regarded as an anima stone into her body and torturing the girl day after day to test her new limits, their only intent on breaking her into their puppet, what happened though they weren't expecting.

One day the girl broke free from her restraints grabbing the neck of her captor she ripped the man in two her new found powers making short work of every other pitiful being that strode to stop her, in the end she killed them all ending their lives be it by her fists or her shark like teeth ripping their throats out ... she lost her grip and soon enough she became a ruthless killer. She continued on from that place her murderous rage untapped, she wiped out villages in days just to kill going so far as to just end people who had done nothing to her ... she was losing herself, and the only thing that saved her was a simple melody. The lullaby she longed for she heard it coming from a dark alley hummed through a coarse tone, she knew who was doing this but until she saw his face she couldn't know why .... the same man who dragged her from the depths, the man that ended her mothers suffering .... the man who sat over the top of a corpse his sword through its throat and only sadness in his eyes.

She couldn't bring herself to face him, no she ran going to the only place she knew anymore, her mothers grave. she sat there thinking about all the hate and fear she had brought and it simply made her sick, vomiting and dry reaching at what she had done, had she really become so despicable? she couldn't forgive what she'd done but nor would she let herself become overcome by it, she set forth eventual leaving that grave and the cold place she called home behind, all in search of holding back the dark ... and that my friends is what lead her to this point.

» Natural Attributes:

Massive Strength And Speed:
Melissa is quite unlike an everyday ordinary person, due to her anima stones ability of enhancing her natural abilities the girl is capable of performing enormous feats that would seem impossible to the ordinary, this isn't to say mel is a true powerhouse, compared to those with real strength shed be hardly able to make a dent with her fists alone. This technique just allows her to perform at a higher level than most humans could function at her anima stone enhances her muscles core strength allowing her to perform feats such as lifting cars with one hand or smashing through concrete with a single punch. This ability also has an ultimate effect to her speed. Via increasing the muscles used for running she makes her capability in speed enough to run at the same level of the greatest Olympians.

Keen Smell:
a genetic gift given to mel from her fathers genetics, with this ability mel is able to sense things from almost a mile away the finest details. to this level her smell receptors enhanced by her fathers dna make her able to smell such things as a persons very blood making her excellent at tracking and finding others all the way to smelling hormones others excrete. This allows her to almost analyse someones core genetic make up with a few wiffs of their body, her blood hound level of smell making her able to even detect things such as sickness within the human body. This technique however has a few major flaws in the ideals of if were she to lose her sense of smell somehow she would be left relying on her other senses also another major downfall is even with her blood tracking ability she would be very hard pressed to locate and use this ability to perfection among a large group of people or large area of aromas as the scents would begin to cancel one another out.

» Racial Powers:

Soul Force:
Melissa like most other spiritual humans is capable of accessing this unique power. The soul force that is generated within her is an energy that acts in a similar manner to ones own reiatsu. This energy performs several feats such as keeping the aging process from advancing and allowing a much longer sustainable life within mel. she is also capable of turning this inner power source into an outer usable energy, this allows her to perform a feat that resembles something like a cero and sends a massive energy beams towards her opponent. this is the main source of the girls inner power allowing her to unlock a variety of different powers and aspects.

Soul Dash:
Instead of focusing on quick burst of speed like most other races, humans prefer to have a constant rate in which they react, perceive, move and adapt at superhuman speeds. By harnessing their Soul Force, most humans can activate this ability and begin to utilize this evolutionary trait. An example of how this is used is that when a powerful enough human is able to direct Soul Energy into their feet, they can adjust themselves to where their legs are moving at speeds that can easily keep up with most types of shunpo or Sonido based moves at a constant rate of speed for a variable period. Another instance of how Soul Dash is used is by directing all their Soul Force into their overall body in order to obtain that state of superhuman reflexes, vision and speed in order to keep an opponent constantly on their feet. However, Some human's can only keep this up for a few moments, while others can sustain themselves for longer periods of time when they advance more in this skill.

Soul Detection:
For the most part, this is similar to the Arrancar's own persquira or the Shinigami's ability to sense different types energy signatures. So, even on the lowest level, this is often used in order to make human's aware of their overall surroundings. Thus, Evolution-Type powers help in a human often in sensing spiritual beings at a significant distance or tell in what direction they are in, allowing them to see different types of hollow's and be more aware of different types of souls in the area. On it's highest level's, it can even allow human's to look into divine level's of spirituality such as Heaven itself, The Realm of Death and other similar places. Though these types of human's are far and in between. For the most part, though, Soul Detection is often used determine another opponents overall energy.

» Supernatural Powers:

Power Replication:
This power is one born from Mels very own being, the power enables her with consent from a person she is capable via a simple drop of the other persons blood capable of replicating there powers. This is done thanks to the anima stone that is embedded into her heart, once the blood seeps into her system and merges with her blood the anima stone quickly replicates the person who's blood shes just absorbed through her own system and replicates any anomalies making it so that she is capable of using ones own powers. The stone acts as a sort of adaptive recourse changing her systems to suit the blood and thus capable of on a much lower level using another persons powers. This however cannot be abused so lightly as a major factor to consider is that without another's consent she is incapable of creating what one would call a "soul link" this is a type of bond that allows Mels anima stone to activate, this soul link is simply done via someone drinking Mels own blood whilst they have a willing soul, this is due to the fact the souls link with the blood is the main object of this power. After this is done the anima stone recognizes a new substance and activates awaiting that corresponding substance to enter her system.

Once this little ritual is performed the anima stone allows her to store powers and use the unique basis of powers she absorbs. This could mean if she absorbed a power that uses an element she is capable on a very low level of reproducing that element, she isn't however able to do what the original user would be capable of with the power and the moves and special uses he has with that power would remain uniquely his or her own, she would just copy the basic core of the power. Because of this after absorption she would only be able to replicate the power to the most basic extent with very minimal control, as time progressed she may eventual become more adept with the power but to begin with she would be a complete novice. She is able to store a multitude of power but the usage of them would rely on the girls usage and practice with said power and would also rely on her own capabilities. With this move she is able to reproduce things such as zanpakutos powers as well as normal powers due to the soul and blood being linked but if she was to come in contact with a multi power user she may only be capable of receiving one of the said powers from them.

OOC INFO - ooc permission will be required for all powers absorbed or taken, all powers given however will be the lowest tier until she further progresses and will be incapable of producing powers to the same level as another. Her own strength in the power will be determined by both her ability and her tier, this means that all powers collected are to be used at her tier regardless of the tier of the original user.

Liquid Nitrogen Generation:
A power Mel gained through her absorption method a long time ago, this power enables her to turn her bloods particles into that of the liquid form of nitrogen. This enables her body to act as a sort of conduit for her power. due to the effects this liquid can create i.e freezing she tends to only use blood that is already free of her system due to the fact her inner systems aren't use to the cold and thus she could literally kill herself by freezing organs and such. Due to this most people think Mels Power is very limited due to her bloods supply, however thanks to the powers affect she is able to manipulate and stretch the molecules of her liquid nitrogen to the point she can make 1 ounce of blood equal out to almost a bathtub full. the temperature this liquid can freeze to usually is close to absolute 0 however with Mels technique on organic matter it is much less affected only being capable of hitting temperatures of a lesser but still very effective negative 100 degrees at full power, though the usual temperature would be much closer to say about negative 50.

Liquid Nitrogen Control:
This power was brought along with her ability to Generate the element. Mel is able on a basic level control her liquid nitrogen making it so she could achieve such feats as firing blasts of the substance. she is able to directly control the path of her ability being able to control the direction and partially the form of her nitrogen, though this doesn't mean she could create weapons or structures from this liquid. the basic structure will always stay the same and due to her lack of much control over this she is currently incapable of allowing the liquid to touch any part of her but her hands due to risk of freezing and cell damage. because of this she is often seen manipulating it as though shes using some invisible force to guide it or having the liquid wrap around her arms allowing her to use this thing as though it were a pair of gauntlets. The destructive force backing the liquid nitrogen is one quite high increasing her own strength and adding on the added effect of partially freezing what she touches.

The Death matter Curse:
Unlike her father the girls death mater doesn't manifest itself into her physical being and make up her entirety, in fact the girls true power lies like her nitrogen control in her blood. The girls very blood is made of death matter, capable of like those who had been embodiment of it before her of being manipulated by her will, she could in theory control the death matter as though it were a simple extension of her will however the flaws in her own case are much higher due to the death matter being literally a part of her blood stream and keeping her alive. She in theory can use this technique much the same as the other users of death matter, simply flowing her blood out and expanding her blood cells outwards to generate a pool from a ounce of blood and manipulate it freely. However her powers centered around the ideals of unlike her fathers corruption or uncles control Mels Death matters key ability comes with absorption and repulsion. In this sense hers may be seen as something of a even more powerful form than even tora or wolfs for the death matter in her veins once exposed to oxygen break down on a molecular level coating the body of the girl so that upon touch the death matter literally engulfs around the matter she is touching and begins to molecularly dissipated, breaking down on an atomic level as the death matter absorbs the energy in their atomic bonds breaking down the matter into nothingness in seconds, however this doesn't mean that the matter is gone forever for the death matter can then be restructured and reform any matter that it previously took in forming it once more at her command. The level at which she could do this at could allow her to literally break down entire building and then structurally reform them at will, though a big problem is that reformation isn't instantaneous and can with much larger things take more time, another factor associating to this is that she cannot dissipate physical and spiritual beings due to their atomic bonds being of a different structure to matter, but as is if used properly she could in theory absorb the matter of a thousand blades and reform them all within the air around her and then due to the death matter still infecting them use it as a force acting upon them to control the generated things as if they were nothing. The problem with this power is Mels lack of control is immense when using this in the way of her dissipating ability and the matter itself due to her subconsciously controlling it against her own will it means she is not skilled with this enough that she could do that at any given time but only when her subconscious thoughts and natural thoughts are similar which for a girl who within her subconscious mind doesn't want to have control its quite hard.
