[Spirit Class 7 | Hazard D] Kita Lirio

○ Name: Kita Lirio ○ Age: 400s (Spent roughly 200~ years as an Arrancar) ○ Gender: Female ○ Race: Arrancar ○ Affiliation: Lives w/ Klein ○ Alignment: Neutral Evil ○ Aspect of Death: Vengeance ○ Marital Status: Single (?) ○ Height: 6'3 ○ Body Type: Muscular ○ Hair Colour: Red ○ Eye Colour: Gold w/ Green Inclusions

○ Arrancar mask now appears as two separated, horns on the top of her head that are reminiscent of feline ears.
○ Has thin, pale red stripes that originate from her spine and stretch toward her chest and belly, reminiscent of a tiger
○ Pale green scale-like markings band her forearms and legs, her canines and eyes appearing far more snake-like thanks to Safira’s corruption.


Though she hasn’t lost her violent nature entirely, since having broken her mask properly Kita has adopted a calmer, more approachable attitude. No longer trapped on an emotional binary swinging between violent anger and quiet yet cautious placidity, one can note Kita to be of the curious kind, her naivete far more clearly displayed through emotion than plain fact, if anything having become more willing to accept that she doesn’t have it all figured out with her time spent in the Living Realm.

Despite this calm, her fury is brighter and fiercer than ever, though is far less easy to beget, her ability to control and harness the flame within her for a worthier cause than that of a mindless animal. She is fiercely loyal and protective of those she views as weaker or beloved to her, a seeking of justice and a fair line to stand on far more apparent in her mind than prior.



Even in the earliest days of their emergence in a territory within Hueco Mundo, the wrath of the vengeful tiger was known to all who dwelled there. They did not kill simply to eat; if one met their ire, they would be torn to shreds, kept alive as long as possible so their suffering would last into their final thoughts, their agony a further warning to any who even considered tricking or messing with her. Unusually more bestial in mind, they still had remnants of humanity and intellect intact, merely clouded by a terrible rage.

Often keeping to themselves, hunting alone and overall feeling satisfaction in the lack of attempts on their life or prey. The beast had a strange sense of longing fill them before long, finding themselves watching the more amicable groups from afar with a wistful gaze, often being discovered and resulting in them fleeing in fear. Led by some kind of caretaking instinct, they forcefully dragged weaker, more simple hollows back to their den, pathetic things that couldn’t survive on their own, tossing them shares of their catches and eventually assembling a small stable group for themselves to take care of.

This small, strange arrangement brought some form of content feeling to the beast, protecting these weaker things becoming the center of their life, until their den was discovered and emptied, them coming back with a kill only to find blood and traces of a struggle left. Rage billowed, as they would go on to hunt down every member of those responsible for the killing of their precious things.

When the other end of the red mist was reached, the hollow would abandon their birth territory, roaming the sands alone for several years, moving away as far as possible in what could only be described as a state of grief and anger. They would only cease her travels when an unusual sight caught their eye - humanoid hollows bearing blades, unlike anything they had previously seen. The tiger immediately put the anomalies to the test, taking them as a simple kill, stalking the group before mounting an attack.

Though they fought viciously and hard, they would be downed, at the mercy of those they considered easy prey.

Time as an Arrancar

Her full awareness was formed in the darkness of a cold lab, the immediate reaction to the existence of another in this alien environment was to lunge, however was restrained by chains and rendered somewhat lethargic by medications. Even in her sluggish state, she managed to snap the restraints on her arms, only stopping when forced to realize she no longer had her massive paws or fur.

She had become an Arrancar, branded, and forced to be a part of an army, a situation that she was forced to live with, biding her time until she could give the one responsible for this humiliation a long, painful, agony-filled death. Beginning as a Numeros in the earlier stages of Aizen’s army, the arrancar would give herself a name - Kita Lirio, only looking for opportunities to grow her strength so she could enact her vengeance, putting up with derogatory comments of her situation and challenging those who thought it comical to mock her.

She would regain respect over time with the power she presented, until she was taken as the 9th Espada at the time’s Fraccion; though it wasn’t a position given out of respect, but rather a desire to put her in her place. Every little dig at her, every little put down be it physical or mental, only drove her crazy, fuelling her rage and the desire to have his head, pushing her to the point that, after waiting for the perfect opportunity, she put him through pure hell, torturing the Espada to the extent they were replaced and made a Privaron not too long after the incident. The message was clear to any: She would not take disrespect lightly.

Though Kita did not formally see any combat situations after this, she would kill others as a means to throw her unspent rage somewhere, disgusted with the lack of respect or acknowledgement by her peers, until she heard word of Aizen’s defeat. She was only angrier, knowing her kill was taken from her before she even had a chance, that satisfaction she dreamt of would never be realized.

She felt no relief in her newfound freedom, only fury as she went on to let her rage out on a group of army stragglers, who would turn to follow her with the recognition of her strength, any who thought themselves stronger than her or willing to throw disrespect brutally put in their place. Those years under a Shinigami’s boot, especially one defeated so miserably, were not going to be forgotten, she would never let another rule her again.

She returned to her birth territory with her group, establishing a small encampment in the canyons, creating a small, somewhat dysfunctional haven for the weak or those who did not want to be involved in any of the ensuing conflicts or organizing within Hueco Mundo, to maintain a sense of freedom.



Vile Spiritual Pressure
Kita's spiritual pressure is the definition of feeling one's bloodlust. Being a rather considerable presence alone, when angered or intent to kill is on the mind, this effect is magnified, often striking paralyzing fear into weaker wills or making her opponents feel as if they are stalked prey. (Can only paralyze entities that are either NPCs or have a Willpower skill that is at least two levels under her.)

Hand-to-Hand Combatant
Being her preferred method of fighting, Kita has great skill fighting in bare hand combat. Though she hasn't been formally trained in any arts or techniques, she is able to hold her own in a physical confrontation, able to read her opponent's moves and exploiting weaknesses she finds. Most of her skills were gained from hunting beasts significantly larger than her, paired with her powerful physique she can theoretically deal tons of damage and end a fight without needing to use her sword or other skills.

Natural Physique
Even with her time as an Adjuchas, Kita has proven to have an incredibly powerful body capable of tremendous strength, speed, and longevity feats. Her go-to wounding method many a times is to tear limbs off barehanded, something she does with little effort for even most hollows, unless they themselves had some aspect to increase their defenses or regeneration. Though speed is a factor in her typical battle, it’s nothing compared to her frightening strength.

Ambush Hunter
Kita is capable of being entirely quiet and stealthy, slowly stalking after a selected subject near almost undetected. She's able to hide her presence enough to where it's harder for her to be sensed by just anyone.

Acrid Fangs
A trait carried over from her days as a Hollow, Kita's teeth are able to administer a painful acid to others if bitten. This acid, if there's no defensive or spiritual measures being exercised, will eat through flesh to the bone in the localized area if not stopped, melting one’s flesh like flames.

Serpent's Influence
Forced to inherit a piece of Safira's Núcleo, Kita's appearance has shifted slightly to gain more snake-like features. Though any grander effects of this change to her soul aren't yet apparent, more traits will develop as Kita continues on with this aspect inside of her.



Bala
Kita’s Bala is similar to the typical Arrancar’s, however possesses the unique elements of both stealth and increased speed at the cost of amount per round. An excellent stealth attack, Kita’s Bala have the ability to mask, appearing almost invisible apart from the occasional flicker of light every half second and the presence of some movement in the air, traveling at high speeds to batter an opponent in small, quickly fired explosive shots from the shadows. However, she can only fire half the rate of a normal Bala.

Garra Bala
A slightly modified version of her take of Bala, instead of appearing almost invisible they fire like large needles, stabbing into an opponent rather than exploding. Carrying a burning aspect, the Bala prioritize pain infliction than damage, giving her opponent incredible pain where ever the Bala hit on their body, feeling as if their flesh is on fire.

Cero
Given how loud and destructive Ceros tend to be, they aren’t the usually prowling Kita’s go-to, but she developed alternative forms of Cero to brutalize her opponent to aid in ending a fight or hunt quickly in a burst of energy. Though even with this preference, Kita has proficient skill in using normal Ceros, being able to control the attacks without issue.

Sangrienta Cero
Twin Ceros crafted in each of Kita's palms, once activated they fire three-clawed dual attacks that possess the potency of a Cero in her respective level, though allowing for more concentrated power and more direction control. Those struck with these Ceros are subject to a burning cut.

Gran Sangrienta Cero
With the offering of her fiery blood, these Cero's destructive potency are greatly increased, much like a standard Gran Rey Cero's difference in power.

Regeneration
Upon being forced into becoming an Arrancar, Kita peculiarly did not give up her regenerative abilities for additional strength, in fact possessing a robust skill in restoring her body and being a component of her terror in combat.

Pesquisa
Kita’s prowess in Pesquisa is notable, being her primary means of threat detection and determination, as well as a primary part of her hunts. She has a focus ability that is primarily conducted by her eyes, her pupils glowing a dull white as if light is being reflected in them when it’s active, her surroundings darkening as the Reiatsu signatures of any in her field of vision become obvious to her, unobstructed by objects or walls.

Sonido
A notable part of her moveset, while Kita often relies on her natural speed to outmaneuver opponents, she will utilize her Sonido in order to add an element of surprise or to get up in her opponent’s face in one movement. Her version is much quieter than the typical Arrancar’s, but those with sharp ears can still hear a softened electronic ‘buzz’-like sound when it’s used.



Name: Justicia

Appearance: Justicia takes the form of an oversized, jagged, bright red blade with serrated edges. The handle is trimmed with gold accents.

Sealed Abilities:

Vengeance Brewing
Kita is able to create small-scale explosions with her body or Reiryoku as a point of detonation. They're only capable of a typical bullet's explosive force within a close range at most, though they are powerful enough to be used as a propellant to enable a sudden boost of speed or more vertical mobility that she otherwise wouldn't be capable of.



Release Phrase: Level the Field, Justicia!

Abilities:

Arbiter of Righteous Destruction
Kita's body, Zanpakuto, and reiryoku is imbued with the ability to spontaneously combust into a powerful explosion, enabling her to use these aspects as vectors of destruction, the power of such an explosion's might scaling off of her Núcleo.

However, the scale of such explosions is rather short-ranged at the beginning of a combat encounter, growing it's scope of potential destruction the longer Kita is agitated and engaged in combat (+50% size per active combat post).

Burning Blood
Kita's blood is no exception to this vengeful flame inside of her, any spilled blood capable of being activated into explosives if she is within sight of it. Diluted forms of her blood cannot be detonated.

Flame-Wreathed Enforcer
Activating multiple explosions unto her own body at once cloaks Kita in a full body coating of that explosive fire, sparking and spitting frequently to indicate it's abnormality from regular fire. Any physical attacks that strike her with this coating of flame active will receive a violent explosion three times as potent as a singular one in return, however this immediately dispels the cloak. (1 post cooldown after the coat breaks)

*Note: Kita's explosions do not hurt her.
