Nada, The Poet's Pendulum

NOTE: Nada is planned for the position of Primera Espada.

GENETICS

Character Name:
Nada, The Poet’s Pendulum

Character True Age:
He does not have a true age as he abandoned everything.

Character Appearance Age:
He looks like a young man.

Character Gender:
Male

Orientation:
Cero Espada, though he claimed to serve no one.

Personality:
He is a manic depressive, meaning that he is always gives off a sad aura and always felt either bored or miserable. He speaks in deep tone and was usually a slow speaker. It is unknown, but it is unnerving to his foes since he always speaks like he knows their doom the moment he looked at them. He also has an intimidating habit of keeping eye contact with friends and foes alike without breaking. He questioned their motives, he answered honestly, and he even makes grim comments about his opponent before him. Throughout his time as an Arrancar, as a Fraccion, and as an Espada, he never cried a teardrop.

During combat, he is clearly counter-offensive with his favored style involving Riposte, a deadly technique of using the enemy’s attack to create an exploitable opening, and then abuse that vulnerability. Like Ulquiorra, Nada has a signature of his own. For each foe he has defeated, he has two signs to mark his foe as defeated or dead through assumption. If his foe is claimed to be able to fight again, he will mark their right cheek with a vertical cut while those he claimed to be too broken, he leaves a cross on their forehead. Overall, he does not like to kill his opponents for the reason that he does not want to kill a “fellow blade” when he/she has to do more to earn his coup de grace.

GENETIC LOOKS

Appearance:
He is a tall man (Nnoitra’s hieght) with blank eyes and short blond hair. His skin was tan. Though a lightweight, he has a broad frame, giving an imposing figure in any battlefield. His uniform was standard except for a large cut across his shirt that reveals a hollow hole where his heart used to be in. When his zanpakuto is sheathed, the zanpakuto was carried by his two leading fingers over his right shoulder and he frequently puts it down on the floor to attend meetings or to rest. Often times, his blank stare complimented his eerie and most recognizable intimidation.

Bone Appearance:
His bone fragments remained hidden inside his black gloves and when removed, the bone fragments gave Nada the ability to impale his foe with the sharp claws. Because of the claws, it always makes the appearance that he has long fingers when he actually does not by size ratio during his time as a Menos. Primarily, it is his boney hands that allowed him to stop some powerful ceros as an Espada, but for Obscura and Gran Ray, he still has to up the ante in his blocking against these massive attacks.

Reitsu Colour:
He has no color to his reiatsu, but to tell that he released his weapon, the participants in the area can feel their heart getting heavier as the air gets thicker. It is not powerful enough to do any harm, but it is widespread enough that anyone in the city limits can feel it. Primary effect of the reiatsu was a fog of war made from reishi. Like a double-edged sword, the fog can enhance all spiritual characters in the battlefield, but all who are under the affects will feel their battle-hardiness fading as the price for power was defense. (Example: Dellapero was under the influence of the fog, although he could use an empowered version of Gran Ray Cero, his durability and Hierro suffered substantially. Considering that he is one of the top four Espadas, he was forbidden to release his zanpakuto within the vicinity of Las Noches because his reiatsu was powerful enough to cause the palace to collapse.

ZANPAKUTÔ

Sealed Zanpakutô:
The zanpakuto was a thick, large ring that is connected to a very broad blade ending with a semi-circular blade. Given implication from his title, “the Poet’s Pendulum,” Nada’s zanpakuto was supposed to be a pendulum and as a pendulum, it required momentum to be effective as the semi-circular tip was the true edge. By size and possible materials used relatively, the pendulum was very heavy to use, thus Nada was very strong. Eccentrically, Nada talks to his zanpakuto and called it, Empathica.

Racial Abilities:
(Menos)
Serpentine Cero: Unlike normal cero, Nada’s was untamed and unpredictable. Instead of going straight, it “slithered” side to side at random directions, making enemies have a very hard time dodging without possibly jumping into it by mistake. However, like any other cero, it has the one-hit effect where the cero would just explode on impact, no matter if it is a mailbox or another Arrancar. While most would fire their cero from their mouth, Nada whips it out of his two leading fingers on his right hand. Despite its absence of color, it always gives off its own reiatsu which tends to be noticeable to those who pays attention to their instincts. Visually, it looks like a series of ripples in reality.

(Espada)
Ghostly Pendulums: A variation from his Serpentine Cero, Nada fired his cero into the sky. On its way down, the cero split into multiple ceros which resembled falling pendulum blades similar to Nada’s zanpakuto, Empathica. As a barrage attack, it affects everyone within the area of attack designated by Nada. As unpredictable as the Serpentine Cero, the attack is regarded as fearsome due to Nada’s quote, “Locations was nothing more than grotesque form of poetry that I despised.”

Gran Ray Cero: It is a highly concentrated cero attack that potentially made it the deadliest cero used due to its ability to cut through a building with ease. However, it required the Espada to sacrifice some of his own “blood” to make it possible. There is no record of its lethality other than Ichigo Kurosaki was one of the very few to have witnessed its devastating effectiveness. Nada learned this method on his own, though his resource was unknown. Fortunately for the enemies, he has never used it before, so the hopes that Nada will not use it at all.

Garganta: It is a rip in the dimension that allowed Nada to go in and out of Hueco Mundo. Implied through his powers and loyalty, he can also escort any group of people through it.

RESSERECCION

Resereccion Name:
Empathica

Resereccion Release Phrase:
“Sway your lullaby... Empathica...”

Release Actions:
Nada raise his pendulum and suspends it by the top of his hand. After he spoke the phrase, he swayed the pendulum side-to-side. Mysteriously, as soon as the pendulum began swaying on its own, it “sing” (more like humming as it cuts the air in its path.) The fog appeared in the battlefield, giving the effects mentioned before as Nada and Empathica disappeared into the fog. By the time the foe finds Nada again, Nada has already transformed into his Resurreccion.

Resereccion Appearance:
Both his arms are covered in the bone fragments that used to cover his hands and both his legs are missing. What covered him were his tattered remains of his uniform. Empathica remained, but it replaced his legs while continuously swaying like a counterbalance for Nada’s levitation and also his primary mobility method. He moved through the air like a serpent while his claws are sharp enough to overcome strong defenses like Hierro and Bakudo barriers. The most fearsome feature was his headlessness as it generally strikes fear into those who witnessed an Espada who can fight normally without eyes or anything.

Resereccion Abilities:
Cero Oscuras: Similar to Ichigo Kurosaki’s enhanced Getsuga Tensho, this attack was only meant for Espada from Cuatro to Cero because its power was outstandingly energetic and required the amount of reinyoku that even the Quinto Espada cannot possess generally. To Nada, when he used it, his resurreccion body was tensed up while his right hand was quivering from the kickback of the cero attack. Comparing its power to Earth, it is powerful enough to destroy a chunk of a city. Like Ulquiorra’s, it was black with green outline.



DUES EX RESSERECION (PLOT ONLY)

Dues Ex Name:
Toumas

Dues Ex Release Phrase:
“Save me...I’m afraid...I’m so afraid...I felt myself raped again and again and again...I know that I will die alone...but loved...No one can hear me scream in your one-thousand pages of erased text, Toumas...”

Dues Ex Release Actions:
Nada has never used it at all before, as he stated that if he used it, he will no longer by Nada, he will be his true name, Toumas (pronounced “Tow-Moss.”) This implied that if Nada enters that stage, there is no way to return to his sealed form on his own. Due to his power being substantially enhanced, this form is restricted to only plot, when the admin, [THEFROST] gave the request to use it.

The fog in the battlefield becomes thicker while the air became thick enough that everything seems to slow down. Fighters in the area will feel like they are fighting underwater; it is getting harder to breathe while there was so much restricting their movements. Empathica returned to Nada’s hand as the legs grow back. A round later, the fog dissipates gradually and the battlefield gets darker like the whole battlefield is being submerged into the ocean. The next thing that anyone could know, Nada no longer exist and Toumas became a reality. What is also magical and eerie was something was lurking in the depth of his reiatsu...something big while a voice of a child singing through the air.

Dues Ex Appearance:
Toumas stands at the same height as Nada, but the major differences was his outfit and hair style. His hair was long, black and tattered while his outfit was tattered and worn medieval servant attire while having a large cut across the chest. Empathica (the zanpakuto) remains the same as it is located in Toumas’s right grasp. Within the reiatsu, there are reishi clumped together and take the appearance of parchments. There are exactly a thousand of these clumps.

Dues Ex Abilities:
The Sweet Lullaby: The big thing lurking in Toumas’s reiatsu was in fact a colossal pendulum with the power rivaling the Shoyoku, the zanpakuto used to execute Shinigami Captains who are deemed too dangerous to be kept alive, but was destroyed by Ichigo Kurosaki. Those who are unfortunate to be caught in its path would feel the freezing touch of death like they have not felt it before and if hit by it, they will either die immediately on impact or be gravely wounded. Fortunately, it is only one pendulum existing in the reiatsu field, so it is unlikely to be facing it so soon into the battle with Toumas. Overall, Nada explained that facing it is like facing Death the moment of being struck down by a more powerful warrior, even if just watching it passes by. This ability starts the moment Toumas enters the battle (aka Nada becomes Toumas) and will never stop until Toumas is killed. This is basically Toumas’s final promise: To make all get away, run away, fly away from the cruel world that he suffered in.

Empathica: Toumas condenses the reiatsu around his target, making everything heavier and harder for that target to move or breathe. It is mistaken for sorrow or pain. It lasts as long as Toumas would allow. It will only affect two people at a time.

Innocence: The polar opposite of Empathica, but can affect the target negatively either way. Toumas expands the reiatsu around a target quickly, fouling up senses through rapid pressure change, but the target can move easier and feel lighter. It is like losing care for everything and feeling relieved that the pain disappeared. However, the relief is a distraction that could potentially kill them. Like Empathica, it lasts as long as Toumas would allow and it will only affect two people at a time. However, Toumas cannot use it at the same time as he is using Empathica.

PAST

Aspect of Death: Abandonment

History:
Not much is known of his past, and he is never willing to talk about it. Through implication, he died a very long time ago by execution and he has abandoned his humanity a long ago. His speech gave away that he was once a poet before and could not write anymore because there is no paper in Hueco Mundo. Before he became an Arrancar, he is known in Hueco Mundo as a foe to not provoke and as an Arrancar, the Hollows feared him still. They would even scatter the moment they feel his heavy aura.

As a Menos, he was at a high level before he joined the Arrancar Army as an Espada. Supposedly, Nada was one of the few Menos who could rival the Espada before he became one himself. In fact, he was already a Vasto Lorde when the leader of the Espada found him and convinced him to join. As a Vasto Lorde, he led a few Adjuchas and many Gillians. It is rumored that he only joined the Espada because the Cero Espada, Ashlei Clixx caught his interest and followed her, which...caused his little army to follow as well out of reliance towards the Vasto Lorde.

After he became the Primera Espada, he recruited his little army as his Fraccion then gave them the same rule as before, “Either keep up with me or you fly solo. No argument. I will abandon you the very second I decided to leave.” Ever since then, his Fraccion are very disciplined and considered as reliable as they will fall back the moment Nada decided to go and attacks the moment that Nada wanted them to attack. At a personal level, he treats Ashlei Clixx like a little sister and was willing to go to her by himself just to either bring her back to Los Noches or to rescue any Fraccion belonging to Ashlei Clixx.
