» Shikai Release Phrase: Break through, Kazagumowari.

» Shikai Release Action: [Player Choice].

» Shikai Appearance: Her sword becomes a cleaver like blade with a jagged edge, as if the sword has been ground down over a rock and looks pretty poorly maintained.

» Shikai Ability: A melee-type zanpakuto which at a glance does nothing more than boost her power and allow her to cleave things in two. That is the superficial aspect of her zanpakuto, Hono's shikai has more depth than being a simple slasher.

The jagged edge of her sword leaves tiny fragments of the sword inside targets that she slashes and by saying "rend" will cause the shikai's ability to activate and the fragments of the sword inside all targets will burn up. Anyone which is inflicted with the tiny fragments of the sword inside them will feel their whole body burning before making it as though the target is being attacked from the front and the back with an equal amount of force, increasing the chance of splitting the target cleanly in two as the two cuts will join in the middle and bifurcate them.

[Creator's Note: Could develop other properties to enhance the "splitting" ie. slows regen upon splitting a target, ignores defences to easier inflict others. Get creative Waffles].

Shikai Weaknesses:
Durability: Hono's zanpakuto requires that she actually get the fragments embedded in a target in order for the shikai ability to work. If she cannot physically break through a target's defences then she loses a lot of offensive power.
Simple: A simple zanpakuto which is not incredibly encompassing, it is the single-minded will to overcome every obstacle in front of her manifested. In exchange for utility, it makes up for it with potency.
Indiscriminate: If by twist of fate the fragments end up inside of an ally, she cannot activate this ability without harming them as well as her enemies. Hono however, could develop and overcome this restriction through growth (even growing past the need to verbally order the fragments to activate).



» Bankai Release Phrase: Bankai. Kazagumowari Ankūteimei
[風雲裂 暗空低迷. Cloud Splitter Under Dark Sky]

» Bankai Release Action: [Player Choice]

» Bankai Appearance: Kazagumowari Ankūteimei alters Hono's attire, gaining a black haori which rests on her body over the shihakusho. It looks as though it could be an inverted colour-scheme captain's haori but it does not possess an insigna on the back, the kanji of the bankai's name is inscribed on the haori in a vertical line and glows red.

In her hands the shikai form of Kazagumowari remains but is stained black and the jagged edge is gone, instead looking as it should be and it is properly cared for.

» Bankai Abilities: The power of Kazagumowari is greatly enhanced with her bankai, albeit still a melee-type zanpakuto. In the same vein as her shikai it is highly potent but very simple, if she cuts you pieces of her jagged edge are left inside of you to fester and be activated. However, the bankai does not have a jagged edge. Hono in this form does not need to embed her sword into a target, she must simply slash her sword and the moment that she goes to slash her sword and it connects with a target it will feel as though there are two Honos in that moment.

A perfectly identical attack of equal power, speed and precision will be made and attempt to join with her own attack which relies on surprise and an opponent to overcome her zanpakuto's overwhelming power with their own in turn or to play around the fact that any attack would feel like she was cutting through both sides.

Bankai Weaknesses
Simple: Again, very simple but potent.
Single target: Unlike her shikai which can affect multiple people, her incomplete bankai is exclusively designed to attack one person and be the embodiment of her will to cut through that single obstacle that is in front of her.
Incomplete: No, this is not her completed bankai, it powerful but as far as a boost in power. It is lower than what one should expect to see from a bankai that has matured.



» Bankai Release Phrase: Bankai. Kasugomikiri Kazagumowari Ankūteimei. [微塵切 風雲裂 暗空低迷. "Particle-Cutting Cloud Splitter Under Dark Sky"].

» Bankai Release Action: Hono drops her sword into the ground before the "sheathed" blade of Kasugomikiri Kazagumowari Ankūteimei extends to the size of a multi-story building from the ground and dissolves.

» Bankai Appearance: Kasugomikiri Kazagumowari Ankūteimei is the true form of Hono's bankai, shedding the haori that she donned previously, that haori takes it's true form. The sheathe of Kazagumowari which manifests as a giant black sword and as the blade dissolves so that she is left with the sleek black cleaver in her hand - it's sheathe manifests as a giant dark sky which overshadows the area around her (range based on tier). Along the cleaver is the kanji of the full name of her zanpakuto on both sides, burning bright red.

» Bankai Abilities: The final form of Hono's bankai, it does not change besides having the true boost in power that one would expect from a matured bankai. It is still functionally slashing and having the slash mirrored but with far greater potency due to the mature nature of this release.

It's true power is the final technique where Hono swings her sword towards the sky and splits the dark clouds above her. Triggering the final move where her clouds quite literally rend the particles in the area apart and form electricity as a result which is drawn along with all the black clouds down into her sword for her to deliver a final move which does not simply rend in two.

Being hit by her final attack is equivalent to every cell that makes up your body being attacked at once by Hono, to use this ability is so taxing on her body and zanpakuto spirit, that she would likely be hospitalised for a few days after using it unless her durabilty was beyond normal levels (above Elite) and her zanpakuto is unable to activate her bankai for three months after it is used.

Bankai Weaknesses
Timeout: Hono cannot use her bankai's full potential without fucking herself over. Look at me giving Hono a Final Getsuga Tensho move, hehe.
Simple: Same as before, simple and potent.
Single-Target: The bankai is reflecting the desire to overcome a single obstacle that could get in Hono's way. Cut that shit up girl, go straight for the boss man and skip the fodder.

» Zanpakutô Name: Denkōsekka [ 電光 雪花, Lightning Snowflake].

» Zanpakutô Spirit Summary: The zanpakuto spirit of Denkōsekka is a young woman that looks like an onnamusha. Her personality is stern and to the point, while she isn't arrogant she is rigid and unwilling to concede easily which can make her a bother to interact with. She values her principles and integrity but has a bit of youthful naivety to her.

Upon entering bankai her look changes to look middle-aged and dressed like a noblewoman who has put away her sword, developing a more thoughtful and experienced attitude which is self-reflective. As though an older woman looking back at her younger days and been humbled.

» Inner World: [Player choice].

» Zanpakutô Appearance: The sealed form of Denkōsekka takes the form of a standard katana with a cerulean wrapping on the hilt and sheathe. Dangling from the hilt is a white rope tassel. The tsuba is a brilliant gold with a hexagonal shape and lines connecting from the points down towards the handle.

» Sealed Zanpakutô Power: N/A.



» Shikai Release Phrase: Vanish, Denkōsekka.

» Shikai Release Action: [Player Choice].

» Shikai Appearance: The appearance of Denkōsekka takes on the form of a transparent sword giving it the illusion of being made of glass and difficult to see as its swung. The sword's blade becomes straighter and the tsuba extends out in the shape of a snowflake.

» Shikai Ability: Denkōsekka is a lightning-type zanpakuto which is quite simple in ability. By clashing blades Denkōsekka builds up charge and then utilises it to shoot off bolts of lightning. Additionally, it can be sheathed and drawn out again - making it suitable for one who uses iajutsu - to charge it by rubbing along the sheathe.

It's trump card is that instead of spending the charge to shoot bolts of electricity, the user is able to spend the charge with uttering its release command again to make the blade flash in a blinding light. Upon execution of the wielder is momentarily fuelled with the power of the zanpakuto which increases the speed of their next action by 300% which gives the impression that the user has vanished by the speed at which they attack. This has a cool-down of four posts but reduces by one for every level above adept the user has capping at two: Advanced; three posts and Elite; two posts.

Shikai Weaknesses: Besides the bolts of lightning, the shikai has little utility and is very straightforward in using the charge to initiate a trump card. Due to the fact the user is not invisible the spirit expects some knowledge of Hoho to make full use of its ability. A person who is blind will not be affected by the blinding flash and those with high reikaku and/or focus will probably be able to see through its trump card.

As a person grows they can potentially expand on their scope of what they can do with the lightning but I was told she was a shounen protag so it's pretty simple and straightforward as is.



» Bankai Release Phrase: Bankai. Denkōsekka Zusetsu [電光雪花 図説, Lightning Snowflake DIagram].

» Bankai Release Action: To activate Denkōsekka Zusetsu the user drops the sword into the ground where it will sink until it reaches the hilt and remain there which activates the bankai.

» Bankai Appearance: Upon activation and sinking into the ground Denkōsekka Zusetsu will form a translucent snowflake like structure in the sky which is in the same shape as the zanpakuto's tsuba. This stretches for about twenty metres before it shatters into a swarm of smaller snowflakes that the user can command and control as an extension of themselves. Sadly these are dulled and not easily used as bladed weapons.

» Bankai Ability: The power of Denkōsekka Zusetsu is to absorb charge from the Earth through the sword and empower the snowflakes that the user has under their command. By using the electricity they are able to fire it as lightning attacks or create a number of effects ie. entrapping a target by setting up snowflakes around them and creating a net of electricity, attacking someone with the snowflakes and zapping them or empowering the snowflakes to actually be able to cut and burn a target due to the lightning empowering their edges.

Vanish. Denkōsekka Zusetsu: By using the snowflakes the user is able to replicate the same effect as the shikai which causes some or all of the snowflakes to execute a blinding flash and boost its user's speed by 300% percent - which while the same amount as the shikai - but with the addition of having two charges to utilise instead of just one.

Bankai Weaknesses Denkōsekka Zusetsu is limited by range, the snowflakes cannot travel beyond a hundred metres of where the sword was placed upon activation. It's empowered trump card is still limited by a target's potential to be able to overwhelm the boost, counteract the blinding flash etc.

If the sword is removed from the ground then it will stop gaining charge and prevent the user from using the lightning abilities - ultimately leaving them with a bunch of dull snowflakes until the sword is inserted back into the ground. Additionally the user is unarmed so if they don't know Hakuda then you're probably going to wish you did if you wanna fight up close.

» Resurreccion Appearance: Upon entering her resurreccion, Priscilla's appearance does not change significantly. Her body loses all of its colour and she exists as a monochrome version of herself that is devoid of the normal vibrant colours she dresses in to be replaced with more than fifty shades of grey. From her tail bone extends eight octopus arms that are pure white with various black splash patterns over them which she can utilise to attack and defend as required, or as secondary limbs.

» Resureccion Ability: When released, Priscilla regains her nature as a cephalopod hollow. Her physiology gaining traits reminiscent of her time as a hollow while also restoring her hollow powers which involve the generation and manipulation of black water, functioning as ink. This ink is generated from her "ink sac" which is then exerted from her additional eight arms to shoot at targets.

» Zanpakutô Name: Kirin Kashi. [季輪花詞, Seasonal Wheel Flower Poetry].

» Zanpakutô Spirit Summary: Kirin Kashi takes the form of a tall woman with a slender frame, dark black hair with flowers woven into elaborate braids flows behind her with a veil styled in the fashion of a flower covering her eyes. A smile that never seems to go away is the only thing that gives away any expressions of the spirit. The rest of her is covered by a flowery kimono, purple in colour, with various flowers embroidered into the fabric but asymmetrically designed so that one sleeve stops at her elbow while the other reaches down to the ground below. She only wields her sword in the arm that isn't covered.

She is a whimsical woman that flows between moods, often attributing it to the weather and how it makes her feel. If it's an overcast day then she can be quite solemn and irate, on a bright day she might as well be the rays of sunshine itself. This temperamental behaviour can make it problematic as she may withhold power depending on the weather that her master might release her in. If it's not a sunny day then she's not interested.

When entering bankai, her veil and its petal design breaks away to her head. Her eyes remain a mystery though as she is wearing a black piece of fabric that obscures her eyes.

» Inner World: [Player choice], it is recommended that the inner world's weather change based on her mood given the spirit's behaviour.

» Zanpakutô Appearance: Refer to picture.

» Sealed Zanpakutô Power: Refer to sweet scent.



» Shikai Release Phrase: Come and Go, Kirin Kashi.

» Shikai Release Action: [Player Choice].

» Shikai Appearance: The blade of Kirin Kashi straightens, almost to the point of looking like a rapier due to its guard folding back around the user's hand like petals that are protecting its master's hand.

» Shikai Ability: The released power of Kirin Kashi is called "Kakajiten (花香辞典, Flower Fragrance Dictionary)", it boasts an incredibly versatile power through its ability to grow a range of blossoms to serve its needs. It evokes these flowers as abilities which grant it the capacity to overwhelm its opponents with a myriad of effects.

Kirin Kashi's Kakajiten is all related to a single factor which is the pollen that the blade spreads into the air. Once a target has breathed in the pollen it gives Kirin Kashi a means to place them under the effect of her Kakajiten which allows them to become susceptible to the greater effects of Kirin Kashi's techniques.

(Essentially, you're going to spread a fragrance through the air using sweet scent as the basis. Then you just make assorted generalised techniques--refer to Benihime--which are named after flowers like Hanakotoba which give a great deal of flexibility and utility ie "Yuri (Lily): Using Yuri, the blade of her shikai branches to become steel tendrils that try to impale everyone who has breathed in the pollen".)
