[ESPADA] Matthew Wolfbane [3-2]

• Name: Matthew Wolfbane
• True Age: 1500
• Appearance Age: 21
• Gender: Male
• Orientation: Free-lance



• Appearance:

Matthew is man of many tastes and styles but prefers to keep it simple just because its less of a hassle. He has a unique set of styles while being in Los Noches whether he is relaxing in his room working, doing important business or well just doing what he wants. Although the styling of his clothes are the same, there are two manners in which he wears it, one being for seriousness and the other for lazing around. Starting off with his head, Matthew sports a naturally messy head of white hair which is predominately heavier on the left side meaning that his left side is a bit longer than the right which is only noticeable when he tilts his head to the left or leans downward. His eyes are both an eerier and very intoxicating yellow color.

Moving down to his torso area, covering his chest he wears a black vest that is zipped all the way up to his neck where the collar stands up and covers it perfectly, which the black vest is covered with a red jacket. Adorned on this jacket is a set of straps that when connected make an X pattern belt that sits nicely along his sides. Lastly he wears a set of black pants and black boots. His outfit overall is a more modified version of the Espada generic uniform.

Now although both styles carry the same look, the way he wears the clothing when he is more relaxed is different. His jacket or more specifically its left side is now resting on the X pattern belt showing the whole left side of the vest. While relaxing,Matthew's left eye is involuntarily closed, leaving him looking through his right eye for some time. His previous mask which was broken sits on the right side of his arm and spans down to his right forearm just above a long jagged scar that runs parallel to his mask fragments


• Bone Appearance: The right side of his arm up to his forearm.

• Hollow Hole: Right backside just above his kidney area.

• Reiatsu Colour: Dark Blue



Personality:

Matthew is a brave and strong fighter, a genius, both on the battle field and off, never making the wrong choice…or at least that’s what he wishes he was. In truth he is quite the broad and interesting specimen. He seems to both be unrealistically transparent whilst also being incredibly varied. He is quite difficult to describe in just a few words as he tends to be a genius at one moment and a complete moron in another, he can be kind and cold, observant and oblivious, he is difficult to describe with merely one of these terms. His entire personality seems to most to be one constant flux, ever varying, constantly changing, it can only be said that he contains multitudes. He possesses several personality aspects which seem to be a relative constant and yet there are some times when they may be missing all together. His personality constantly fluctuates from lazy to not lazy depending on his mood or the occasion, but if not all the time he is occasionally seen lounging around or sleeping somewhere.

He is often criticized or berated by people who claim he has no common sense to keep him out of these situations. Yet this is both true and untrue, he is simply too prideful to back down, it would after all, be an insult to his name and pride if he were to do such a thing. One of the few things he absolutely cannot stand is an insult, be it to himself or to someone he cares for and often he will answer such an insult with a challenge to battle or some other ridiculous type of game, even if there is very little of a chance that he can win, which is highly likely to get him into a great deal of trouble or personal injury. He is not malicious with these acts though, he has good intentions, it is just that often these aspects of his personality conflict with his rationale.


Perhaps the first things that people notice about Matthew is that he is an outrageously curious person, causing the simplest of things to be blown into a full scale fiasco merely because he put his nose in a place it did not belong. As such he greatly enjoys learning new things and living through new and unique experiences. He enjoys doing anything that may increase his knowledge base. Perhaps as a result of his aforementioned curiosity, he is extremely intelligent. But the ever modest one, he would deny it. He knows, what he knows. He does not openly brag about his knowledge, nor does he openly give it away, preferring to only display said knowledge when needed.

Matthew could only be defined as the trickster. He loves to play games, more so he loves to play games with other beings. A little extra chaos always makes the world a brighter place in his eyes. He has always been the prankster and the practical joker; although many find his jokes to be...less than funny. As such he is very sly and cunning so much so, that he often believes he can talk his way out of anything, but more often he only manages to talk himself into more trouble. He often enjoys games of any sort, but his stubborn nature often makes him more than unwilling to accept defeat and will often cheat or bewilder his opponent if it means he can walk away the victor.

With each of his positive and negative traits, Matthew has one that many people rather friendly or otherwise can tell right off the bat- he is extremely lazy especially during a fight. While fighting he will display a crouch like position with his back slumped and one eye closed, showing his boredom with not only the fight itself but the opponent in general. Although he is the epitome of a heavily lazy sleeper, he is also surprisingly unpredictable. In accordance with his own personality, certain things can trigger him to become a deadly fighter bent on nothing more than ripping his opposition to shreds. Such cases as when his commander orders him to attack or defend depending on the case.




• History:
The beginnings of Matthew had been scattered and lost through his times, each part of his memory being a mere glimpse and chunk of what it was was.

It was a world … unusual to him. The world that was the home of his kind, but he had never seen it in his existence. He had spent maybe thirty or more years in the human world, feasting like a mad man on all that wonderful carnage, but now he had come ‘home’ in a sense. The abundance of reishi particles, the true purpose behind his mindless consumption of Pluses and numerous humans, the reason why he was lured to such a dangerous area in which Shinigami could assault him, filled him with the sense of fulfillment. After all those years of consumption, he was finally, but only temporarily, satisfied. The aching inside of him filled by simply breathing here, but his love of devouring would not fade as easily as the instinctual impulse to consume would.

For once, the eyes that he used to examine the other world finally focused more so than ever before, taking in the expanse of white ‘sand,’ the empty black sky, and the giant moon looming above. While his mind may have been driven by instinct, it was still intact and had been functioning up to now, and all those memories and the overwhelming euphoria he felt after each kill returned to him, but, much like the child he was when he was alive, he was also overcome with another insatiable aspect: curiosity. He wandered, lumbering about thanks to his deformed and swollen self, to try to see if there was anyone or anything else out there that might answer his questions, even if only just one out of the millions that were in his mind.

How long had he wandered across these deserts, and dunes, he believes that is what they are called? It was, quite frankly, pissing him off that there was virtually no life around here, he’d spent quite a number of days just lumbering away from bloodied battles sometimes simply laying there and sleeping for mere moments before moving on.

‘This body's so . . . weird …’ went the half-mused thought in his mind, considering a means of how to make this movement/transportation issue less worrisome. His thoughts were cast aside by what appeared to be an animistic screech … a very familiar, squeal, that of a demon, much like him. During this trip across the dunes, he acknowledged that whatever he was and why he became such, he was definitely not a human being … he had heard others talk about demons being grotesque creatures, and how one could eventually become them, given the right circumstances. But then again, he could care less about it, since he didn’t mind it much.

Back to the issue at hand, three other Hollows were now engaging him, each considerable smaller than he was, but then again he was a walking wolf with a king complex. One looked like a giant Dragonfly(though he just identified it as a flying bug), another like an over sized scorpion and the third being some strange frog-like thing.

The Dragonfly zipped straight at him, expecting a portly like him to be slow in movement in general. The poor thing was snatched at by the giant sized paw, knocking it out of the sky and gnawing its head and arms off in its mouth. Within the battle all that stood in front of him had fallen except for one..

”Tch! Worthless lot they turned out to be!” the remaining Scorpion snapped aloud, apparent disgust and contempt in his voice.

”Wait … you speak?" the wolf asked tentatively, a bit surprised, give how the three had wordlessly assaulted him, or two did and the third watched.

”Well no bloody hell, I speak! Where’d you come from, the Rukongai?” the bitter Scorpion snapped again, stinger rising up as golden eyes gazed from the head.

‘Maybe I can finally get some question answered?’

Although in the end, Matthew was betrayed and almost killed...yet the battle instinct in him continued to drive him to kill the ones that had tried to help him find his new way. This one act caused the wolf to become a "lone" wolf bent on himself.

Matthew continued to roam around the world of Hueco Mundo challenging all who would fight him, giving no time of day to their weak death cries after. The breaking point had been achieved … not only had he squashed all futile resistance inside his body, and thus remained the master of the mass of consumed Hollows, but the size of the Gillian, giving how many others it had eaten at this point, was at staggering limits. The steps in took in its instinctual urge to proceed to hunt and kill other Hollows were slow and delayed steps. But, within the mind, darkness loomed once more in higher cerebral functions.

Until the wonderful day arrived, when in the midst of trying to consume a series of Giant(Huge) Hollows that it towered over thanks to its own bulk, it had a misstep, and came down from the skies to crash into the sand, much like the one the dominant being had seen year ago.

But, in the midst of its fall, cracks could be seen emerging upon the marble-white mask, slowly spreading from the ‘forehead’ and all about … and these cracks even spread into the body, the mass, the bulk of the Gillian. As its fall from grace continued, the entire body was adorned with spider web patterns of damage, until, moments before the fall’s end, the being shattered into a cloud of dust.

But from where the head of the beast once was, a silhouette emerged in the cover of remains, and down came crashing a bipedal creature, with two pairs of arms, a helmet-like mask … and a case of armor surrounding its true body that was made of the same substance as the mask, a bone-like compound.

Snarling issued from the mask and a sickly sweet voice, with a piercing tone range from it.

”SO! Who gets to die today?”

A shrill whoop and cry sounded from this being, more human and appearance and definitely not a feral beast like before. It was one of joy, as he had gone further than a Gillian, as he noticed … and the overwhelming sense of confidence that surrounded him was a result of the surging power he felt within. Of course, curiosity got the better of him, as he wanted to know just what on Mundo he was now, but it took time to get the answers he needed.

Adjucha. That was the name of his stage of being. The Intermediary Great Hollow, the name could be interpreted as a symbol of great power, and one of great fear. Most Hollows seemed to avoid him, as noted when he had to pummel a weaker one into submission before getting it to answer his numerous questions. But at least, he got information and a free meal, as he proceeded on drenched in blood.

An Adjucha was a superior being in comparison to a Gillian … but Adjuchas had to continue eating Hollows to avoid regressing back into a Gillian, permanently. This was a most disconcerting fact for him, as he hadn’t expected regression to be possible. But then again, he was used to killing and consuming mass quantities of his own kind, so he soon accepted that truth.

However, he learns of a beast far greater than his own state. Vasto Lordes. It was as though the gods were laughing at him when he learned of their existence, a being whose level of power vastly outmatched that of his present state! The greedy child within him couldn’t bear the thought of not being one of the most powerful individuals in Hueco Mundo, even given the fact that he was already incredibly strong to have reached this far in his development. No, he wanted more … and he pursued that goal recklessly, wreaking havoc in his trail of devastation.

His attainment of the form known as "Vasto Lorde" was not one of ceremony, or joy, or triumph like it had been with the Adjuchas form. No, this act had drawn more seasoned Adjuchas, all bearing down on his spiritual presence due to its weakened state. It was a horrendous fight for his life, one that he could barely take pleasure from simply because it was a mess. A frenzy of assailants, with spilled flesh and blood everywhere, and just endless conflict ... normally such a thing would be a sort of paradise for him, but in this case his aching form was in stage a state of pain beyond what he had experienced before.

After these many battles, the once blood driven wolf had waned off of fighting...something was missing from his life that he could not fill. Slowly he fell into a slow but steady state of laziness that soon caused his body to fall into a deep state of sleep. It was on a day where he would finally awaken that he had been taken..no rather found by something. This woman who had towered him had a presence like no other...and a beauty that he thought no hollow could ever have. Looking to her with his glazed eyes he tried to find something that would cause a spark in him but her words instead had given him something. The opportunity to find a fight worth fighting sounded interesting enough for him to jump into a blazing fit. His spiritual pressure even while sleeping drew her closer to him, wanting him to help in her own goals. Matthew at first looked like all confused animals would, but when he had thought about it...he agreed.



• Sealed Zanpakutô: Matthew's Zanpakutō is a straight katana where its tip has been cut off. The blade itself isn't very long and is fashioned to where both sides are sharp rather than having a single sharp side.
• Racial Abilities:

Descorrer:
Arrancar and Hollows use special, spiritual pathways to travel between Hueco Mundo and other worlds. These pathways are called Garganta. Espada-level Arrancar can easily open these pathways between the World of the Living and Hueco Mundo with a simple hand gesture. The Garganta created using Descorrer are a lot more stable than those produced by lower-level Hollows, and allow the Arrancar to simply walk into the void created. These Garganta neatly close around them before opening at their destination. Descorrer lasts a post from the time opened, and closes the moment the user steps out.

Pesquisa:
The practitioner sends out a radiating pulse which reacts to sources of Reiatsu within a certain proximity this being a fifty meter radius, allowing the practitioner to determine the location of any sensed individuals and gauge how powerful they actually are. When the ability is used the practitioner must close their eyes and entered into a meditative state of mind in order to attain the necessary heightened sense of awareness

Sonído:While somewhat similar to Hohō in regards to function and speed, Sonído appears to be more instinctual, seemingly requiring no previous knowledge to perform. It produces a different sound; rather than the swishing or sometimes silent Shunpo of the Shinigami, Sonído makes a booming or static noise. Though the technique is exhibited by most Arrancar, the proficiency with which it can be performed is limited only by the individual. While it doesn't have a set "range", the amount of uses entail to how many posts its on cool down "essentially if the uses are three times its cool down is three posts"

Gemelos Sonído: By introducing an additional step into the normal Sonído movement, the user can generate a number of clone-like afterimages of himself/herself, with up to five of these clones being sustainable simultaneously. "Same as Sonido"

• Unique Abilities:

Eight Senses: Using his natural wolf senses, Kiando can see and hear further than many of his brethren. With his ears he can hear the slightest of details from the shifting of the wind to the swinging of a blade and with his eyes he can see many of the smaller details that many would look over.

Crushing Fang: Though his aptitude for battle has waned his strength has not. With a single hand he can punch a hole in a building with no effort and if he gets a hand on someone, he can crush a skull with enough pressure. Being a passive trait of Kiando, damage is based off ones durability, if it falls under his strength then the latter will happen.

Invoked Howl: Kiando lets out a loud howl that echoes through the area for thirty meters and has two effects. The first is it creates an area in which any form or body whether its invisible or visible can be seen and heard so long as it is in range, the range being thirty meters. The second causes the enemies ears to rupture causing severe disorientation and loss of balance if their Willpower fails below his Strength. To go into elaboration on how this ability work those that are two tiers higher can still move without their presence being known unless he sees them.

Paso Vacío: Kiando's body disappears in a black wisp allowing him to dodge incoming attacks and scales off of his speed. Due to this being a method of avoiding damage, Kiando can only use this twice per post before it goes on a two post cool down.

Asalto Profunda: Kiando creates a blade like movement with his hands, creating a six meter barrier to appear where his hand was either aiming or cutting. The cut itself creates a pocket of space which first pulls said opponent(s) into its center and can be escaped if their speed is higher than Matt or if their durability is higher. In this area, the pocket of space sucks in whatever was inside of his area and locks it in the barrier. Though this is primarily used to take care of smaller numbers its range its rather short, it being twenty meters and not as effective on those whose durability is higher than his strength. Matthew himself can also use himself as a point of the suction, but this also causes whatever part of him he uses to be locked as well for four posts.




• Resereccion Name: Gran Vacío

• Resereccion Release Phrase: Tragarse, Gran Vacío [Engulf, Great Void]

• Release Actions: Matthew covers his right eye while holding his blade towards his opponent.

• Resereccion Appearance:

Version One:

Spoiler:

Version Two:

Spoiler:

The mask is more wolf like though the top part shows his face and the bottom shows his wolf aspects. In version one his hair becomes longer, and his eyes slowly become a deep blue color. The breastplate instead of the one in the picture is his normal chest attire and the shoulder guards are only one the right side and resemble his hollow wolf mask.

• Resereccion Abilities:
Forma de la lámina del vacío allows Matthew to shift the energy of the void into two destructive like blades into a tangible form each four meters in length, these blades becoming blades of spiritual pressure creating his body into the perfect fighting weapon. In this state he can create the blades and shoot them with small notice, allowing him to create a variety of moves and strategies. When channeled or combined together, he can create a large blast of reitsu which travels at max thirty meters in every direction.The reitsu blast itself can only be done one per four posts.

Impedimento del vacío- The second ability of Impedimento de vacío allows him to make the two energies combine and create a "Void" zone where he is capable of summoning a sword known as the "Void Staff". With this weapon he is capable of creating a large 25 meter pocket of space that if touched will negate another spiritual pressure. What this means is that when these area's are touched, a person whether it is himself, an ally or an enemy all of them are set on an equal playing field. In other words all players in the field will have to rely on their fighting prowess (in other words their fists) for as long as Matthew keeps the field up. (in the field, Abilities like Bankai, Shikai, Cero, and the like are unusable creating a zone of "Equality" for all those in the field.) Lastly, while this is in effect, Matthew's weapon is unable to be used unless he deactivates the field by deactivating this ability. Those that are two tiers above him or higher can break through the field and continue to use their abilities. After three posts of keeping this up, Matthew becomes tired and his speed drops by two ranks.

Danza Del Vacío: The ability of Gran Vacio, like its name sake, allows him to create an armory of phantasmal blades around him. These blades although for show are simply the beginning and key of the ability, they also play a key part in his final dance. Within a snap of his fingers the blades will focus on a total of two of his opponents and begin to fire at fixed intervals. Once a blade touches an object whether it be an attack, building, weapon or body, it engulf and seals it making it unable to be used providing their durability is less than his strength and can only be done twice per topic, each use being five posts of CD. In a sense it is the perfect nullification and destruction method. It also follows the same restrictions as its parent technique, making sure that anyone two tiers above him or higher can bypass the sealing method. After the first use, Matthew's speed drops by one tier and after the second use his strength and speed drop by two

La destrucción de la etapa final que invalidaría (Destruction of the Void- Final step): The strongest ability of of his Ressureccion, Matthew channels his spiritual pressure into a singular point before letting out in a destructive blast. However, instead of allowing the blast to flow outward normally like most explosions, this one explodes before imploding and sucking anything in its path inwards towards it core where it traps them in a barrier which seals them inside of it. Those that have lesser strength than Matthew or are two or more tiers above him can escape, but those equal or below will be pulled towards the center if they are fifteen meters from the core point, the radius of the attack being twenty meters. This can only happen once per topic and after its use Matthew is unable to move.
