Character Name: Beetle "06" Yuudeshi
Concept: Beetle's a close-range fighter that was originally created by Kakine from a fragment of the core of his power and ended up developing into the antithesis of his most notable power: CreationConstruction. In essence, the idea of her character is "Where there is creation, there must also be destruction," however she only discovered this power during assignment and schooling in the Gotei's academy, Shin'o. I think that the idea for a Zanpakuto revolving around her is tying in with her hand-to-hand combat/strength and her main external power, DestructionDeconstruction.
Way of Life: Beetle is extroverted, level-headed, and family-driven. She desires to learn more about her family outside of Kakine, to forge bonds with them, and use her hand-to-hand combat prowess, as well as her ludicrous strength in order to help them as much as she can, while also finding her place in the world -- whether it be on Earth or in Soul Society as a soldier for the Gotei.
Application Link: Her original app, and her rework app.

Free Zanpakuto from Oetsu
I. Zanpakuto Information
» Zanpakutô Name: Ochibamaru (落葉丸, Fallen Leaves).
» Zanpakutô Spirit Summary: A large and burly woman who looks like a monstrous insect, she wears the most elegant autumn coloured kimono and veil. She adores dancing and could enrapture a crowd with the way her large form moves amongst the falling leaves like the scene from a fairytale. If she took of the veil would people judge her for the look or be content in her talent?
» Inner World: A forest of red, the leaves fall endlessly in the Fall. One could get lost forever in the scene of red, orange and yellow of the seasons changing and the way the leaves seemed to fall endlessly until direction became impossible to discern.
» Zanpakutô Appearance: Takes the form of a tanto with a simple brown colour scheme. There's nothing really elaborate, a sword that is simple and likes to show everything on its sleeve. In simplicity is its charm.
» Sealed Zanpakutô Power: It's a rather simple power. Depending on the season of where Beetle is at the moment, depending on the season Beetle's blade will have an extra length of blade that is invisible upon being drawn. It is the longest in Summer, and shortest in Winter. The blade length varies between 20cm and 60cm in total length, the blade's visible length is 15cm.
II. Shikai
» Shikai Release Phrase: Crunch. Ochibamaru.
» Shikai Release Action: A red ribbon forms from the handle. Reaching up and around Beetle's arm and wrapping around her torso before the tanto dissolves and forms the shikai.
» Shikai Appearance: The sword breaks apart and encloses itself around her arm which covers it entirely in a sharp jagged piece of metal with various vents. The arm is meant to appear as a horn beetle's horn, extending a bit in front of her to extend her reach.
» Shikai Abilities: The ability of Ochibamaru involves punching the target with her horn-like arm, the jagged edges tearing into flesh and goring the target to do as much damage as possible. The glove-like shikai can open what appears like a mouth and shoot out a ribbon, grabbing the target and dragging them in to gore them.
By usage of the vents around her elbow she can blow out blasts of autumn leaves which are the biproduct of an explosion meant to increase the force of her gouging horn's strikes. Most shikai's boosts in prowess are pretty balanced but Beetle's shikai sacrifices any boost of speed for more strength and durability.
Due to being a Living-type zanpakuto, Beetle's zanpakuto can act when she is unconscious or mentally incapacitated but it is not very visible, making most assume she uses a Melee-type zanpakuto.
Shikai Weaknesses:
Close and Personal: Beetle's zanpakuto is very close-combat orientated, she finds her speed limited and can struggle to keep up if her zanpakuto can't catch an opponent and pull them in to utilise the full efficacy of its power.
Ribbon: The ribbon is strong but can still be destroyed or cut. By breaking the ribbon, the shikai won't end but it will make it even harder for Beetle to catch her foes and close distance.
III. Bankai
» Bankai Release Phrase: "Bankai, Kamikiri Ochibamaru (神切落葉丸, God Cutting Fallen Leaves).
» Bankai Release Action: [Player Choice]
» Bankai Appearance: Her bankai is a reflection of Beetle, in that it looks like a giant beetle. The arm has morphed and grown, wrapping around Beetle like a protective shell. The large monstrous beetle's size is roughly twenty metres in height.
» Bankai Abilities: The most immediate things of note are the shell's impressive durability and can be used to protect her from an attack while her bankai forms itself. The back of the beetle constantly spews out leaves to fill the area while it fights. Overall, the beetle itself is very cool but not the purpose of the bankai.
This giant beetle is more or less a giant distraction while the leaves it spews out are actually covered in tiny little beetles just smaller than the eye can see. Meant to be inhaled or work their way into crevices so that they can devour the target's energy and then explode violently into shrapnel once inside the target and left to build up.
Bankai Weaknesses
Large and Clunky: Being a large bankai, it is as grand as it is clunky. It's not a graceful one to use and will often be cumbersome to utilise. Not great in small, enclosed environments at all.
Slow: Ultimately Beetle's zanpakuto is slower, not only because it's cumbersome and heavy but because it's not even trying to boost its speed output.
Leaves: The leaves & the beetles they conceal are fragile, able to be blown away and kept at a distance. They are particularly weak against elemental attacks that can neutralise them.

Free Zanpakuto from Oetsu
I. Zanpakuto Information
» Zanpakutô Name: Raiu [雷雨, Lightning and Rain]
» Zanpakutô Spirit Summary: Raiu has long dark hair and dark eyes. Two locks wrapped in bandages frame either side of his face. He wears a collared kimono held closed by a dark sash.
Raiu's a decisive individual who does not waste his time, once a decision is made he will act like lightning. Though his incredible decisiveness can lead him to appear dogmatic, steadfast, arrogant and careless. This is not the case though, he is as meticulate in the process of his actions as he is fast.
» Inner World: A temple in the mountains, always overcast it is. Wouldn't it be nice if the sun shined here and a nice day could be enjoyed? If that were to occur then everyone would come to the temple. The lone figure of this world awaits the day when those storm clouds disappear and the season passes. That a day that will be when such a thing happens.
» Zanpakutô Appearance: The katana of Raiu is distinctly straight in the blade, its handle is wrapped in a white and black fabric which lead it to have circles of black through the mostly white hilt. Its sheathe is a distinct opposite, being mostly black with thin white circles running through it.
Henrex possesses a second smaller katana, making it a daisho set. This smaller sword looks almost identical except for the fact it is shorter and the fabrics are inverted; the hilt is mostly black and the sheathe is mostly white. This second sword is rarely seen. It represents his demon half.
» Sealed Zanpakutô Powers
Zanpakutō Manipulation: This is one of Henrex's main powers in terms of usage. With such a strong connection to his Zanpakuto, as well as the main part of his kit once again being versatility, Henrex has gained the ability to manipulate his Zanpakuto at will. From the shape, size, or even the properties, there is little limit to what he can do with his Zanpakuto. This process is usually instantaneous, or damn close to it -- as it also takes very little energy to pull off in general, including the various applications of it. When it comes to changing the shape, size, and other various parts of his Zanpakuto, the length of which they last in that state is indefinite, as Henrex does not have a limit to how long his Zanpakuto lasts in those conditions. However, the properties of his Zanpakuto are another story entirely. When it comes to matters such as those, they usually last around five to seven posts and have a three post cooldown.
- Zanpakuto Manifestation: With the traits that Raiu expresses towards his owner, as well as the immense willpower that said man possesses, it isn't hard to see that the two have a powerful bond with one another. While this is something that is rather common between a Zanpakuto Spirit and owner, their bond is one that allows for Henrex to manifest his Zanpakuto Spirit on a level much farther than what the acquisition of Bankai entails. Rather than only him being able to see his spirit, there is virtually no restriction to Raiu in this state, as he is free to move around and interact with someone else as he pleases, acting as a separate entity from Henrex himself and allowing him to aid in combat, should the time ever arise. Raiu's tier is a whole backet lower than Henrex's when used in this way.
Lightning Rod: Due to his zanpakuto being of the lightning element, Henrex is able to draw and negate lightning-based attacks by pulling them into his blade. The energy is immediately neutralised and so he cannot actually make use of it beyond cancelling the lightning attack.
Tsuyugaminari [梅雨雷, Rainy Season Thunder]: The actual manipulation of lightning that Henrex has access to. It is the dominate aspect of his zanpakuto's storm theme. While it's potency is reduced in base by about fifty percent compared to full release of his zanpakuto, his ability to manipulate lightning is by all means quite versatile and liberal at the cost of its potency.
The potency of his lightning manipulation increases in the event of rain and storms. Instead of the normal fifty percent, it will instead be closer to about eighty percent potency when compared to his shikai.
- Raitairyū [雷体流, Lightning Body Style]: By gathering energy and charging his body with it, Henrex is able to heighten his speed by overcharging his muscles. This allows him to move and attack at much faster speeds than before, as well as allowing him to react much faster than before. All of this combined makes him a much more devastating force in battle, as this allows him to reach even greater levels of Mach speed than before and close most distances in a matter of seconds.
However, this does not just extend to just his speed. As a result of the lightning that courses through him when this ability is active, this also allows all of his lightning-based attacks to come out much faster. This is due to the immensely increased energy summoning that he has whenever this is active, as he can use this as a means to quickly use an electrical attack, though this is something that will shorten the time of this ability by a post, of which is roughly around four to five posts and has a three post cooldown.
Tengiri [天刻, Heaven Cutter]: One of the most basic applications that Henrex can perform with his control over electricity. By manipulating existing electricity, or by creating it through his own spiritual energy, Tenkoku takes the form of a blade of lightning on either the blade of his hand or originating from his hand. Regardless of the medium, this grants him drastically increased cutting power, allowing him to cut through a good majority of physical objects without much issue. However, when it comes to spiritual objects, it often takes either a great deal of strength or infusing a further amount of energy in order to cut through these, should he even have enough energy to counteract it in the first place. This lasts around two posts and has two post cooldown.
Shigure [時雨, Winter Drizzle]: The rain aspect of his zanpakuto. Unlike his lightning aspect which is mostly present through the larger katana, the second sword requires for it to be raining to actually meet the condition to use it's power rather than generating the situation for itself. This ability only works while Raiu is in its sealed state.
When it is raining, Henrex's zanpakuto is able to induce an effect which increases the weight of waterlogged fabrics the faster something gets saturated from the weather. The faster he can make their clothes or armour become a weapon against them as they struggle to move and keep up with him.
II. Shikai
» Shikai Release Phrase: Scatter the Birds, Raiu.
» Shikai Release Action: He will point the blade of his katana to the sky.
» Shikai Appearance: Upon entering shikai, Henrex loses his shorter sword. Pulling on more of his shinigami powers and overriding the demon side. The sword becomes pure white, the black trimmings and ornamentation turns gold. Four bright rings appear behind him made of energy and all having a magatama spiral in them, these rings will follow him as he moves.
» Shikai Abilities: The shikai ability of Henrex is primarily through the control of lightning. The rings themselves are important for the release as they serve as conduits for his abilities, the actual rings idle behind him however they are not restricted to just that spot. The rings measure with a diametre of two metres each.
Henrex is freely able to move all four rings and have them attack or defend him, despite the fact they are made of lightning they very distinctly do have the ability to take a tangible form and become physical obstacles or just remain as energy.
While there is no actual abilities directly related, Henrex's shikai will steadily cause the weather to shift to a storm. The sky will darken over the next few rounds, rainfall will begin, winds will pick up and finally it will just be a complete storm going on around him for a couple of miles when it reaches its apex.
- Raiko 雷鼓 Lightning Drum: At any point in time, Henrex can utilise the rings behind him to execute a powerful explosion of force outwards from them with a sound reminscent of a thundercrack. These blasts can be omnidirectional which carry less overall force, or directional which occurs from the direction they are facing with greater force.
Denkousekka [電光石火, As Fast As Lightning]: Lightning strikes in an instant, a momentary flash that leaves one stunned after it has occurred. That is where Henrex can utilise his four rings as means to gain a momentary burst of speed by launching through them. For example, by moving a ring in front of him and dashing through it the ring will propel him in that direction. Using multiple ones he can increase that by a factor of how many he launches himself through capping at four obviously, the entire process similar to a railgun. The big downside is that it launches him at that specific trajectory, which makes it hard to back out once committed.
Add More At Leisure, you've got Master Zanjutsu after all.
Shikai Weaknesses:
Loss of Shigure: As stated in the ability, Henrex's ability to utilise Shigure from his sealed state does not carry over.
Kind of Big: The rings are fairly large. Being two metres in diametre and there being four of them. To utilise them in a large group of allies might be difficult and to manage all four at once and they do not actually passively do anything other than idle behind his back, meaning actual focus needs to be dedicated to moving them.
Weather: The influence of the weather may impact others, while it can be countered. The weather shift would need to be countered by someone who can expend enough energy to prevent the shift of weather. While it could be beneficial against an enemy to have them waste their energy to do so if they needed; Henrex's allies are possibly just as inconvenienced.
III. Bankai
» Bankai Release Phrase: "Bankai, Toriun Ikazuchiu [鳥雲雷雨, Distant Birds in Stormy Weather].
» Bankai Release Action: Raises sword into the sky, bringing down a lightning bolt to strike him before transitioning into his bankai appearance and activating the state in full.
» Bankai Appearance: Describe or keep images. It's not changing from what it was.
» Bankai Abilities: Henrex's bankai has the quirk of only being able to be activated after the stormy conditions have been created from his shikai or they are already present by other means. Regardless, once he has initiated bankai his ability to manipulate lightning is increased drastically compared to his previous release states. The rings have shifted to create an elaborate array reminscent of drums of the Japanese God of Thunder behind his back, this totals at eight rings. All previous abilities from shikai carry over, due to still possessing the rings and can be considered enhanced due to having more rings to work with.
- Ōikazuchi [大雷, Great Thunder]
This technique is rather basic in concept. By tapping into his influence over lightning, Henrex is able to convert all of his rings into a massive ring around him, stretching to around a kilometre in diametre before a colossal lightning bolt would fall from the sky and create a massive blast in the center of the circle with enough power to singe the ground black, as well as cause a city-wide blackout. After the initial strike, lightning immediately spreads out to the ends of the circle, igniting the air and the area in the entirety of the circle before immediately redirecting and surging back to the center and causing even further damage to whatever should find itself in the circle. Due to consuming all the rings, Henrex will regain one ring back every post after using this technique. It can only be used when there are eight rings to consume.
Honoikazuchi [火雷, Blazing Thunder]
As, when he is in need of a sword, all he has to do is transmute one of his rings to create a lightning bolt that turns into and acts as his sword while in this state. This weapon naturally has an immense amount of cutting power, capable of cutting thought average-level physical and spiritual material with little to no issue or resistance. It mimics the properties of his rings, as it can take the form of just energy in his hand or turn into a physical property. It has an immense amount of heat and ripping power, being easily able to cauterise any wounds it inflicts on a target.
Kuroikazuchi [黒雷, Darkening Thunder]
Four of Henrex's rings are dispersed and turned into dark clouds remiscent of a storm, using these clouds Henrex can hide attacks within them or himself. Due to being made of his own reiatsu, it is difficult to discern much going on within them though a skilled sensor or person with keen senses might be able to work around it. They are ultimately only able to obscure one's sense of spiritual sensing and eyesight after all, not conceal specifics happening like density of attacks etc. The clouds will reform back into rings after three posts unless dispelled earlier.
Sakuikazuchi [折雷, Splitting Thunder]
All rings disperse and take the form of flock of birds made of lightning, the crackling sound of the energy sounds like their chirps. By splitting the rings into a cloud of bird-like constructs, it prevents any kind of usage of other ring-related however provides access to creative use of the flock which are not restricted to the eight rings.
Wakaikazuchi [若雷, Young Thunder]
An ability which Henrex can utilise, by designating a target he is able to swear fealty to that target as his 'lord'. This is a fanciful way of Henrex giving four of his rings the ability to be controlled by an ally. There are a couple of benefits and downsides to this though. The most major downside is that the person will likely not be able to use four rings to the fullest potential without experience and that Henrex cannot use some of his other bankai specific techniques without cooperation. The upside to this ability though is that it allows for a more oppresive and flexible battle strategy when he is not having to manage eight of these rings himself and also allow someone else to continue using some of his bankai's power if he is incapacitated.
Do note this does not allow a person to gain benefits of Henrex in his bankai. They cannot suddenly manipulate lightning or get the boost in power of a release like this, rather they can only utilise the rings as weapons and unless Henrex was to teach them some techniques prior to battle then they cannot utilise any of the rings actual techniques, limiting them to just making the rings act on his behalf.
Tsuchiikazuchi [土雷, Earthen Thunder]
By using a ring, Henrex is able to provide up to eight allies (seven, if it includes himself) with an incredibly high tolerance to lightning based attacks. Reducing the potency of all sources of lightning by eighty percent. The ring will shrink down and wrap around their body on some point in order to provide this boon.
Nariikazuchi [鳴雷, Booming Thunder]
Usage of a ring, Henrex can use it to increase the potency of something that is shot through it. Similar to Denkousekka of shikai, however rather than just increasing the speed it increases all aspects of whatever attack is passed through up to a potency of eight if all rings are used. Nariikazuchi will have a cooldown of one post for every ring used, capping at eight.
Fusuikazuchi [伏雷, Bowing Thunder]
By catching a target inside the centre of a ring or multiple, Henrex can bind it around the target by causing it to constrict around the target. The amount of rings being used in the binding increases the amount of pressure restricting the target from moving. While effective at binding, the target does become immune from lightning while bound which prevents other rings from doing much damage to them in this.
Bankai Weaknesses
Conditional Release: His bankai requires it to be stormy, whether that has already been created by other means or if not, he needs his shikai to finish creating the weather conditions for him which take some time to form the conditions of a storm. This makes it difficult to release on a whim.
Cumbersome: There's eight rings with a diametre of two metres when they are being used. They are not as big when they are idling behind him in the array but trying to use all eight will make it hard to navigate a battlefield when there are allies.
Mentally Taxing: Essentially the strain on Henrex's focus is doubled, in shikai there is a maximum of four rings he has to dedicate thought to control if he wants. In Bankai, there are eight possible rings to use which can get very difficult to manage to get the most use out of them.
Juggling: The bankai has a lot of nuances that require juggling, some abilities require multiple or all rings to activate. Some of these need conditions that can make it important to actually manage and prioritise what he wants to do with it.

Re: Request a Zanpakuto Concept
Mon Apr 19, 2021 8:32 am
Character Name: Asami Furukawa
Concept: A study of a simple lawful character who wants to maintain the illusion that she's more multidimensional than that. I imagine her Zan feeds into this concept by working as a pathway for her to navigate that ends in the release of her passion, though equally does not want to end for some Machiavellian reason.
Way of Life: Deep down Asami is a character motivated by a burning drive for justice and a strong sense of self-righteousness, she can be stubborn and hot-headed because of this. Despite this, she strives to keep these feelings out of her day to day life and play the part of an upstanding noble lady. When all other options that she can imagine fail, Asami is prone to lean on brute force in favour of rethinking her strategy. That is not to say that she rushes toward this route with reckless abandon, but she is more than capable of handling herself when she gets there.

Character Name: Desmond Hayden
Concept: Hayden's concept has gradually developed and formed over the years, but one constant remains: The path traveled when someone undertakes a great cause. I could focus on his will or drive, but I think when you distil his story it comes about the successes and failures a man experience when he truly strives for something greater than himself. The humanity showcased by this person who was ordinary and become extraordinary when extraordinary circumstances forced him to.
Way of Life: Ah man. Well Hayden is a soldier-leader who struggles between upholding his duty to the world and being simply a 'man.' His extraordinary will power and ambitions force him to be decisive man guided by his heart, for better or worst. A passionate man tempered by hard won wisdom gained from lost battles, friends, and failures.
But someone who presses on.

Re: Request a Zanpakuto Concept
Thu Jan 27, 2022 7:44 am
Hello! Thanks for doing this I hope you still do. I have already worked out some details of Tento's Zanpakuto; I have an idea about his Shikai and Banakai but I am really curious about what you would think would work great with him and I could decide to use it as a soundboard. (I have an element attached idea of lightening or light/heat but I am fine with changing that if I really like what you come up with)
Character Name: Tentō Zefā
Concept: Tento is a man that only got to live a short life alive but he lived. He was raised in a tough and dangerous environment but he made the most of it. He was resourceful, smart, cautious, and adaptive. He trained his mind and body to become something more. Personaility wise he is kind but stern, goofy but serious, sociable but private. Through time and effort he was able to get an education, a well paying job, and find someone he loved and wished to spend his life with. However, a combination of a disease outbreak with a chronic condition he had caused the happy start of his life that he wanted to end before he could truly begin to enjoy it. Now that he has come to the afterlife he is trying to come to terms with this, one of the ways is trying to fill in a large of time with a sense of duty and community service like he did when he was alive.
(I am also trying to develop a dual typist thing with him where there is a light and dark within him. I have general ideas so far but haven't solidified anything yet)
Way of Life: He's a intelligent warrior. He loves a good fight, a challenge to push and improve himself. He has a very strong will and has a very analytics mind where he loves to examine and break things down, either to create something or to shut down an opponent's moves. He has a kind heart and a sense of service once committed to something so he likes to help people that he can while "teaching them to fish" as well. He has not developed an solid bonds with anyone yet though.
I hope this is enough to work with. I am really looking forward to see what you come up with!

Re: Request a Zanpakuto Concept
Thu Feb 03, 2022 11:06 pm
Character Name: Laskt
Request: Mostly just some help/reworking of his Shikai and Hollow powers. I like the basic concept and the whole knight/tyrant theme, but Im struggling to come up with a powerset that isnt just holy/evil fire and general physical enhancements. If it would be possible to come up with some stuff that meshes with his general focus on durability/martial skill, that would be awesome.Also a better Hollow name bc mine right now is a little random
Concept: Laskt's main deal is that he is a character that has been isolated in their beliefs and values for a very long time, and then is confronted with a new outlook and how he responds to it. He has made some good progress since he decided to start trying to trust himself again, and now will actively try his best to work on his issues and be the best person he can. He still has plenty of issues, such as a lack of self-preservation and forcing himself to push himself far past reasonable limits, but he is starting to see that sometimes aren't that black and white.
Way of Life: Due to his history, Laskt has crystalized his ideal person into this utterly self-sacrificing, unselfish and perfect person that never loses control. All Laskt really wants to do is to prevent others from suffering the horrific fates that he has seen in World War 4 and Madness City, and will throw himself into whatever danger or situation that will allow him to pursue that goal, often to near suicidal degrees. He honestly could give less of a crap about rewards, recognition, or even a simple thank you, often refusing such things as he believes that heroism is something that rejects such things. His Zanpaktou doesn't really help with this either, as it urges him on to greater and greater acts of protection and self-sacrifice. At it's core, Junkyomaru is about the preservation of justice, chivalry and maintaining a sense of order in an otherwise random world.
On the flipside, his Hollow is all about self-interest and promoting one's own power. Tozat's first thought when presented with any situation or opportunity is how he can first advance his own power, either by direct means or other influence. The Hollow is strong proponent of change and freedom, believing that a stagnated system is one that is doomed to fail. Of course, he is the one that will end up benefiting the most from the changes he enacts.

Re: Request a Zanpakuto Concept
Mon Feb 21, 2022 4:14 pm
Free Zanpakuto from Oetsu
I. Zanpakuto Information
» Zanpakutô Name: Shiōmaru (獅鷹丸, Lion Hawk).
» Zanpakutô Spirit Summary: The spirit of Tento is that of a lion with a hawk perched on its back. The lion wears a collar which is connected to the hawk's foot, binding them togetherl. They talk as individuals but often state they prefer when they are one individual. The hawk sounds as a woman, whereas the lion sounds masculine.
In Bankai, the two undergo a visual change where they fuse to appear as a griffin. Content that they are whole and speaking in a strange tone that echoes the two individuals that they were prior. They are both deeply honourable, wise and experienced. Often challenging their master to improve and their way of life, through hardship does one find growth and through trial and error does one find pride in their own work.
» Inner World: A temple deep in the mountains, lion dog statues adorn the sides of the pathway that leads to the inner den of the temple where the spirit is mostly found.
» Zanpakutô Appearance: The sealed state of Tento's sword takes the form of a katana, its blade is more straight than one might expect and it lacks curvature. Its' tsuba is an oval shape with two stars engraved either side. The handle is wrapped in a light brown cloth, a colour which the sheathe mirrors. Hanging off the handle is a small chain with a tuft of fur hanging from it.
» Sealed Zanpakutô Power: None at present.
II. Shikai
» Shikai Release Phrase: Soar. Shiōmaru.
» Shikai Release Action: [Player Choice].
» Shikai Appearance: The appearance of Shiōmaru changes, the blade transforms into a sickle which is attacked to a fan made out of feathers at the end of the chain.
» Shikai Abilities: There are a couple of layers to Shiōmaru's release, requiring its user to be adept at taking advantage of its attributes. Its ability is quite simple, the sickle is used as a flailing weapon by spinning it with the chain and launched to make attacks at the target while the fan is kept in the user's hand due to the true power of Shiōmaru being the fan itself.
By spinning the sickle in the air - whether to make attacks or just idly - it generates energy which is transferred through the chain, stored inside the fan to be released as powerful gusts of wind for various purposes. Tento can utilise this for simply sweeping attacks which release powerful winds in the direction that the fan is aimed at, whether defensively or offensively. It is highly effective at fighting against projectiles as a result.
He has a total of six feathers in the fan, gaining two extra for every rank of Zanjutsu he gains above Adept. Shiōmaru's true power is being able to sacrifice feathers to utilise techniques which he may develop through experience, an example of this which his zanpakuto spirit shows is Shishikyuu (Lion's Breath) whereby giving up a feather he can cause the sickle to create a temporary vacuum around itself by sucking out all the air briefly which can stagger opponents and immediately charge the fan to use a powerful gust of wind as he needs.
He could also pluck the feathers out and leave them in a spot, setting up traps to make the feathers explode in violent winds. The actual application of Tento's feathers are up to his own creativity and ingenuity.
Shikai Weaknesses:
Feathers: Once Tento uses all of his feathers, his shikai cannot generate attacks through the fan. It becomes what is essentially a melee-type zanpakuto where he is just using the sickle. The feathers take a day to recharge and so he must use them carefully.
Allies: The gusts of wind may inconvenience or hurt his allies if he is not careful.
Tight spaces: Tento has to play carefully in enclosed spaces since the sickle's range is limited, however it might be beneficial by limiting routes to escape his winds. This depends on his own versatility and growth.
III. Bankai
» Bankai Release Phrase: "Bankai, Shiō Gomonzen" (獅鷹 御門前, Lion Hawk Before The Imperial Gate).
» Bankai Release Action: [Player Choice].
» Bankai Appearance: Upon entering bankai, Tento gains a mantle which looks as a lion's mane which hangs down his back. From this mantle two large plumes of feathers sprout as wings and he gains a helmet which goes over his face in the form of a hawk's face. He has armour that goes down his arms which end in a taloned gauntlet over his right hand and a clawed lion's one over his right.
» Bankai Abilities: The power of his bankai expands on his shikai, there is no longer a limit to his feathers due to the sheer amount of them that he possesses in this form. By flapping the wings he can create violent storms and winds that destroy the surrounding environment, launch feathers to utilise as projectiles and initiate more nuanced abilities of his wind manipulation.
The lion's claw is designed to slash and rend wounds onto his targets whereas the talon's a bit more nuanced since it's intended to grab its opponent's head in its claws and eviserate it by closing the talons around it.
WIP.

Free Zanpakuto from Oetsu
I. Zanpakuto Information
[It's WIP.]
» Zanpakutô Name: Junkyomaru (殉教丸, Martyrdom).
» Zanpakutô Spirit Summary: A
» Inner World:
» Zanpakutô Appearance:
» Sealed Zanpakutô Power: None at present.
II. Shikai
» Shikai Release Phrase: Bow your head, Junkyomaru.
» Shikai Release Action: [Player Choice].
» Shikai Appearance: Upon release, Junkyomaru becomes a pauldron on Laskt's shouler which extends down to encase his right arm in armour. From the wrist of the armour a long sword-like protrosion that appears as a tuning fork extends for about half a metre which can be used as a weapon though it is blunted. Extending from the pauldron he sports a single wing with steel-like consistency which he can use to block oncoming attacks, much in the same vein as his his tuning fork like sword the wings is quite dull and is not likely to slash through anything.
» Shikai Abilities: A defence-type zanpakuto, Laskt's zanpakuto revolves around the use of the wing to block damage and absorb it, storing it within the feathers over the course of a battle before being able to release the stored up damage that he has acquired and releasing it as concentrated blasts of power from the tuning fork like protrusion.
It's shape is strange but its true purpose of the tuning fork shape is to trap a target's neck in the tuning fork and release the damage as a means to execute those who are unjust by the full concentration of an attack being focused around their head and condemn them to death.
Shikai Weaknesses:
Pain: Upon releasing the shikai, Laskt's pauldron will burrow itself into his body which is quite painful however as a byproduct it is very difficult to tear the shikai off of his body.
Blunt: Junkyomaru is not a shikai that is made for cutting, perhaps strikes made by it will cause some blunt force trauma but as far as cutting open a target's body. It is highly unlikely unless extreme speed is applied.
Scaling: Using it for small bursts is impractical however at times necessary, the full potency of the zanpakuto may rarely be showcased in full unless Laskt has the opportunity to block a lot of attacks before releasing the full power of his shikai as a counter-attack.
III. Bankai
» Bankai Release Phrase: Bankai, Kōsen Junan (香山受難, Martyrdom of the Fragrant Mountain)
» Bankai Release Action: [Player Choice]
» Bankai Appearance: Upon activation of Kōsen Junan the armour of Laskt falls away, his protections throw aside. His body glows in a bright white and a silhouette forms above him taking the shape of a woman that has bowed her head in acceptance. Five tuning fork like spears materialise that pierce through Laskt's torso with incredibly pain, rooting him to the spot without killing him but making him functionally trapped.
» Bankai Abilities: A purely selfless bankai that is the materialisation of the desire to protect and offer mercy to all those he can. Kōsen Junan possesses only one power, the power of protection at the cost of oneself. For the length of Kōsen Junan's activation Laskt's durability is treated as untrained and he cannot reduce the pain he feels.
- One Thousand Blessings, One Thousand Punishments
Anchored in place and kept alive by his bankai, Laskt gains the power of being able to possess a thousand lives. If he is killed he will recover in the most extremely painful of ways. All of this sufferring he endures accomplishes on thing, that in return for his life he spares others. This bankai enforces the effect onto anyone (that Laskt wants to protect) under the light of the woman that emanates from his body. The innocent are spared and he will take it in their place.
If he dies on his one thousandth life he will die. Naturally by attacking him one can pointlessly shave off his lives without the effect applying to another person.
Bankai Weaknesses
Stationary: Laskt cannot move and he is functionally incapacitated by the bankai.
Exposed: He cannot fight back while he is in his bankai meaning that he must rely on the people who he is saving from death to protect him. If he were to use his bankai in a situation wherein he was the only one around an enemy could simply keep killing him until he died.
Heavily Situational: In a large scale conflict he can save a lot of people but his lives will burn through very quick.
Shade: The effect can only work on someone that is under the light of the woman to receive her grace, if someone where undercover or in the shade where the light didn't touch them they wouldn't be able to be effected by the bankai.

Re: Request a Zanpakuto Concept

Aight Gamma, let's see what you can whip up for my girl Hono.
Character Name: Hono Kaen
Concept: Hono is a character that has a lot of issues. At her core, she's a young, overzealous child wanting to make a name for herself. She's got a fiery temper, and can be extremely overconfident even when she knows she's outmatched. She often gets herself into trouble with her vulgar mouth. She doesn't do this out of malice it's just how she talks. Hono is a character that wants to grow, improve her abilities to match the Shinigami above her, devoting a majority of her time to training. The Shinigami is extremely determined, almost having an obsession towards her current goals. Not letting any obstacle stop her, as she said herself, "If everyone is 100 times stronger then me, I need to train 100 times harder!"
Way of Life: Hono doesn't have a complicated goal. She wants to be a powerful Shingami to make her parents proud. Hono has always wanted people to be impressed by her. Her biological parents were members of the stealth division but weren't notable in any area. Hoping to actually be better than her parents were before her. I mean, what kid doesn't want to make a name for themself!
