Tsurugi sono Rijekuto: Ringo wasn't an Unabara before and isn't now. He doesn't care for Unabara techniques or such things as he distances himself from them. The Sword that Rejects is a move used by Ringo's teacher Jaeden Crow. By learning under the foot of such a teacher he, of course, picked up on somethings. It is a very true statement in saying that Ringo is a strong warrior compared to his former teacher. He is extremely intelligent and a natural with training from several fine warriors. Being taught so well gave him time to improve upon using this move. His teacher was able to lock upArrancar Resurrections and Zanpakutō releases by using a certain type of reishi release frequency. Ringo has learned to do it as well but can only do it ten times a thread. And the shutdown lasts five turns per use. Allowing him to make the battle a pure fight of skill.

When using this move it is possible for a user to break out of the sealing on release. However, it costs more energy than normal to do so. For example, when releasing a Shikai level release it costs x2 the regular energy to do so. When doing a Bankai level Release it costs x3 the energy it normally would do so. And for a Shikokai level release, it costs x4 the energy it normally would. Once released the user can stay that way. However the Blade, if used again, will reject the powers of the release, making them cost more. So they go through energy far faster when fighting against the Blade that Rejects.

The Unlimited Blades: The Crow Clan practiced a rather special style that used an unseen blade. When they struck other blades would come out and attack the enemy. Ringo can only make five blades at a time for a single slash. However, he is capable of selecting the angle of attack they take. This allows him a great deal of control when performing it. What is interesting is that he is able to create the slashes and make some of the real and others fake. Ringo is able to make his enemy think an attack is coming from one way but has it be a feint. However, this does consume one of his slashes when he uses it. Ringo enjoyed the style that the Crows used for its purity of heart. This allowed him to enjoy sword fights even more. Ringo at the end of the day was a duelist who enjoyed nothing more. Crossing blades with a good enemy was the most interesting thing for him to have. By learning this form from his former teacher. He laid the groundwork for more.

The Drawback to this power is that over time the power of each swing grows more dull. The power would work something like this when used 100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, and finally, 20%. At the end of it the extra strikes get weaker and in the case of using a fake or a feint. It would look like this over all 100%. 80%, FAKE BLADE, 60%, 40%.

The Demons Eye: The Crows all used special eye forms and were able to do wonderful things. Ringo often felt out place but was treated as a family more often than not. His eye wasn't even remotely close to what those people had in them. The Demons Eye which Ringo was known for had but one power. It was capable of predicting a second into the future. This allowed it to see the possible outcomes of a battle a second into the future. Letting Ringo sees the outcome of some things if they were done. However, it doesn't always give him an accurate read of it. Ringo must experience the pain of death when it predicts his demise. He gets to visually feel his death which allows him to awaken even more. This doesn't mean he can see moves he's not familiar with. But he does get a warning of his demise by an unseen means when it comes. Ringo's eye is potent and for the most part something that he developed. A desire to fit into the family more than anything else made it so. The draw back to this power is that prolonged use can cause damage on a psychological level. For example Ringo can see multiple future's at a time and not all of them are true. But if he uses the power too often he'll experience the pain mentally and his body will react as though it happened. Though no signs of physical damage occur outside everything with this power is mental based.

Mantra: Ringo is said to have perhaps the greatest Mantra of those who learned it. He is capable of sensing things far further away than most. His can extend to one hundred meters at it's most and can detect any movement. Any form of movement that comes out of its place. By doing this Ringo is able to detect shifts and movements. The longer the range, however, the less effect the radar is in close. Ringo generally keeps his set around the ten-meter range making it easier to detect. He's able to sense even muscle movements with this. Velocity is clear to him as he can calculate the movements of things to evade them easier. However just because he can detect something doesn't mean that Ringo can deal with it. He needs to know it's coming and be capable of reacting to it. Ringo's Mantra makes it extremely hard to sneak up on him. However, it doesn't make him invincible or able to not be snuck up on. If someone is fast enough they can move through the mantra without him having time to react. It comes down to them being quicker than he is all.

Tengu Step: This was his mentor's favorite step so of course he learned it. By waiting till contact the target bursts into crows that come at the enemy. This allows them to create the illusion generally speaking that the enemy is being swarmed by Crows. However in Ringo's case, it works slightly differently than his teachers. When Ringo performs the step he does wait for contact before it happens. However, his crows aren't illusions they are real and explode when they hit the enemy. They are kido that explodes upon contact, allowing him to make it an offensive and defensive move. This is what made Ringo special among the Unabara and Crow. That he was able to overlook his families nature and develop himself differently. To come out with a different point of view, while he does use a style from the Unabara. Ringo doesn't believe in using their Lotus or such things. As he finds them to be dishonorable of a swordsman. If he ever discarded that title he would certainly accept it. The Tengu Step can only be performed every two turns for him. The explosion is similar to a level 30 kido or a regular blast from Dragonball Z when they were smaller.

Karasuha: The Crow's Blade is the final thing that Ringo taught himself. It wasn't a something dealing with those that came before him. Ringo decided to make a sword in honor of his mentor. The man who gave him much when he had nothing. The style is developed upon precise movements and quick changes with the blade. By using his previous style combined with this he is able to do many things. But one thing is he throws in feints of attacks that look real enough to catch his enemies off guard. It takes a lot of timing and skill also use of his Demon's Eye. But by doing this Ringo was able to forge a formidable style of swordplay. He's able to influence his enemies opinion of his sword's range by using different strokes. Making them think the blade is smaller or longer than it really is. Giving him a number of openings that he can use generally speaking. However, the real prowess of the weapon is that it allows him to create sword strikes that extend a meter or two above normal distance.

Shikoaki

Shikkoaki Appearance: Ringo hasn't had much occasion to use this yet. However upon activation of it, the entire area becomes a bright white. As photon's fill the area blinding most who look at him. Ringo's shikokai creates a glowing area that is able to blind most who look directly at it. It's like looking at the sun if it were right in front of you. Without the effects of heat, of course, it's merely very bright.The light is the least of concerns when it involves this power. Ringo's entire body is a glowing embodiment of Photonic energy and seems to give it off without trouble. Upon this activation, his sickness is taken away making the previous troubles vanish. He is able to freely use his photon powers without repercussion of the downsides. His sickness from the photon particles in his body is cured by using this. The Shikokai's glowing power coming from his body does have other purposes aside from just that. His Zanpakutō blade has turned into a lighthouse like the light that glows a great deal. This light can burn if it gets close to someone for too long. It's a highly focused amount of light around the blade's edge. The glow is similar to that of a magnifying glass focusing the light through its lens. It allows him to create a larger burn based on that.

Light Manipulation: While in his Shikokai he is able to completely bend Light to his will. Ringo previously could only use it for enhancement purposes. Making it a fairly weak and rather one method power. However now he is able to fully manipulate the light particles to their greatest potential. By doing this he is able to command them from his body to do impressive blasts. The feat of skills he has shown when using them is effective. Ringo is capable of producing objects or massive energy blasts. The manipulation depends on the creativity of Ringo mostly. However, he must be capable of doing the feat when he's using the power. Being cured of the sickness he has for a while allows him to fight in earnest. The real skill that comes from it is that all the light around his body and blade can be bent as well. He creates blades from his body or from the air around him. As stated previously though these are merely the beginning of what the Jackel can create.

Light Armor: This is an effective tool that Ringo often uses. He is able to create a light-based shield that isn't visible. The light uses it's reflective surface to not be visible for others. It is extremely hard to spot as the armor is designed to almost be unseen. It's more like a barrier that forms around his body and creates a defense. However defense isn't all the armor can be used for in its use. The defense of the armor is spread out generally and allows it to be broken through by stronger enemies. He can put all the armor into a single spot if desired however this does make it visible. As the layers are set on top of one another making the glow evident. The glow is bright enough to blind an enemy who looks directly into it. However hurting their eyes is only a temporary effect of looking at it. By bending the light he can attack from his defenses as well. Sending out blades or blasts of fair strength. How a misconception is that blasts and blades are all that light can do. Light is a very easily changed and can be soft as water or hard as concrete if decided so.




» Why: Partly because it something the character is capable and it was requested I do so upon bringing him out. To fit into the settings being placed on by the current year.
