Tia Harribel [APPROVED, 0-5--]

GENETICS

Character Name:
Tia Harribel (NOT "TIER" D:<)

Character True Age:
Unknown

Character Appearance Age:
Early-Mid 20's?

Character Gender:
Obviously a female, why do you ask this?

Orientation:
Unaligned/Unaffiliated

Personality:

In contrast to the majority of her fellow Espada, Harribel is calm, taciturn, level-headed and analytical, preferring not to engage in combat; she is content with silently observing both parties until the fighting reaches its conclusion, and refuses to fight unless she or her Fracción are challenged or ordered by her superiors (excluding Baraggan, sharing her history with him). She strongly opposes the notion of killing others, especially if done to gain power. However, when she is betrayed by Aizen, Harribel angrily attacks him, showing that, while rare, Harribel can be quite aggressive and brutal. Unlike most of her comrades, Harribel does care for her Fracción, as she is noticeably upset when she senses their presences fading and angrily assaults Hitsugaya seconds after their defeat at the hands of Captain-Commander Yamamoto.

She views Aizen and his powers in high regard, which appears to be reciprocated by Aizen to a certain extent, as he seems unconcerned with the prospect of his top three Espada fighting a numerically-superior force led by six Shinigami captains without his aid. Whenever she is present, Aizen usually greets the group with words such as "ladies and gentlemen of the Espada" or "brothers and sisters", presumably for her exclusive benefit, as she is the only female.

Harribel's gender and associated rank in the Espada occasionally draws the unwanted attention of other people; Nnoitra Gilga attempts to provoke her into attacking him with a sharply-worded comment during the Espada meeting. She also catches the eye of Captain Shunsui Kyōraku, to the point of him mentioning his (rather positive) opinion of her abilities to his opponent.

Currently, she's a very kind leader and woman to her fraccions, remaining within their home together. Occasionally, they will go out and take a visit to the Human World. They have gotten over their dislike for anyone else as the sole purpose of hatred for them was due to Sosuke Aizen. Harribel plans to remain neutral unless she sees something needs to be done right. Who knows? She might even consider helping her former enemies against a bigger nemesis if it's needed.

GENETIC LOOKS

Appearance:


Harribel has dark skin, green eyes, blonde eyelashes, and messy short blonde hair which has three braided locks. She wears a variation of the Arrancar jacket that covers the lower part of her face downward, while baring a good portion of the lower half of her large breasts. The jacket, unlike that of other Arrancar, has a zipper running along its entire length that is opened from the bottom upwards (in the anime, this outfit is extended to fully cover her breasts, a black stripe marking where the original cut of the jacket was). The jacket's sleeves completely envelop her arms, terminating in black glove-like extensions at her extremities, resembling the appearance of a cat's paw. Harribel carries her Zanpakutō horizontally across her back (similar to Suì-Fēng). The sword itself is notably broad and short compared to others, completely hollow in the middle, and has a western-style guard.

The remnants of her Hollow mask consist of the sides of her face and her mouth, as well as an extensive area below and around her neck extending down to, and also covering, her nipples; she usually hides these Hollow remnants from view with her jacket. Harribel's mask fragment gives her a similar appearance to Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, at least in regards to the teeth. To date she has the most intact mask of any Arrancar not including the incomplete Grand Fisher (though the mask is removed upon her Zanpakutō's release). Her Espada tattoo is oddly placed on the left side of her right breast. The location of her Hollow hole is in her lower abdomen where her womb would be, making it unseen.

Her appearance from the time before she became an Arrancar mostly resembled her released state, but most of her body and face was covered by white hollow-bones and her weapon was part of her arm. Her hair and eyes were, however, exposed.

Bone Appearance:
Mouth, Jaw, basically around that area

Hollow Hole:
Lower Abdomen...

Reitsu Colour:
Golden Amber Yellow

ZANPAKUTÔ

Sealed Zanpakutô:

Spoiler:

In its sealed state, Harribel's Zanpakutō, while not particularly long, is unusually wide and has the distinction of being completely hollow in the middle, essentially consisting of nothing more than the edges of what would otherwise be a normal sword. Its handle is purple and its guard is as wide as its blade, with three small holes on either end that Harribel uses to unsheathe it. Oddly, the sword is longer than its sheath. It is worn horizontally on her upper back.

Racial Abilities:

Descorrer (解空(デスコレール), Desukorēru; Japanese for "Loosed Void", Spanish for "Drawing Back/Opening"): A technique used by Espada-level Arrancar and sometimes others, to open a Garganta between the living world and Hueco Mundo. She is seen using one to travel to the Fake Karakura Town.

Ola Azul (波蒼砲 (オーラ・アズール), Ōra Azūru; Spanish for "Blue Wave", Japanese for "Blue Wave Gun"): A technique in which Harribel pulls her sword back as it gathers yellow spiritual energy within the hollow portion of her blade and launches it towards her opponent, in the form of an energy blade projectile. She has also demonstrated the ability to keep the energy concentrated within the hollowed out portion of the blade and unleash it in the form of a ribbon when attacking.



Master Swordsmanship Specialist: Harribel has demonstrated tremendous skill in swordsmanship, being able to fight on even grounds with Hitsugaya, a captain-level Shinigami as well as a famous prodigy of swordsmanship. Harribel is ambidextrous and can switch her sword from her right to left. She is even capable of defending herself from a Shinigami captain and two Vizard simultaneously.

Immense Spiritual Power: Even before becoming an Arrancar, Tier Harribel demonstrated tremendous spiritual power. As an Arrancar and one of the top four members of the Espada, Harribel is forbidden to release her Zanpakutō while inside the dome of Las Noches. If she were to do so, her immense spiritual power would be enough to demolish the fortress. Her spiritual power is yellow.

Highly Perceptive Combatant: While a person of few words, Harribel has shown herself to be an intuitive person. She is easily able to see through a person's demeanor to determine what they are thinking about. During the battle between Ichigo and Grimmjow, she noted how the two were similar, especially in terms of energy signatures. Her keen intellect and intuition is later seen in the initial fight with Hitsugaya, being able to see through his icy demeanor and identify his concern for his Lieutenant. She was able to sense a small wavering in Hitsugaya's Spiritual Pressure after the arrival of Hinamori concerned him.

Master Tactician: Harribel was able to hold her own in a fight against Hitsugaya, who used abilities counter to her own, taking advantage of his attacks for her own purposes.

Cero: Harribel has been shown to charge her Cero using her sword and being able to fire it in a very wide ranging form, following the arc of her sword swing.

Gran Rey Cero: Upon being an Espada, she knows Gran Rey Cero. Her's is just about the same color as her reiatsu, but it has a crackling sensation to it. It is extremely powerful that it was forbidden from usage within the Las Noches fortress by Aizen Sosuke. She is capable of shooting it in a wide arc.

Sonído Master: Harribel has demonstrated incredible speed in battle, initially able to outmaneuver Hitsugaya to the point of forcing him almost completely on the defensive. She is able to create dozens of afterimage in her full extent.

Basic Arrancar Abilities: She is able to use basic arrancar abilities while having the advance form of it as of being a Viejo/Former Espada of the Aizen Army.

Aspect of Death; Sacrifice: For some very odd reasons, anything related to sacrificial subjects (such as the fraccions risking their lives for their master), she seems to get stronger during the battle from this influence.

RESSERECCION

Resereccion Name:
Tiburon (Spanish for "Shark")

Resereccion Release Phrase:
Destroy, Tiburon

Release Actions:

When releasing her Zanpakutō, she holds it with an outstretched arm in front of her with the blade pointing down and declares the release command. She is then completely enveloped by a heart-shaped surge of water that closes around her to form a cocoon-like cyclone which Harribel then cuts herself out of.

Resereccion Appearance:


In this form, all of her clothes are gone, as well as her Espada tattoo. The Hollow fragments she has in her sealed state become a collar with extensions that cover her nipples, in addition to spaulders on her shoulders with two ribbon-like protrusions on her back that bare a resemblance to shark fins. A thin, spine-like structure also forms on her stomach, spanning from her waist to the underside of her breasts. Harribel now wears a mini-skirt consisting of bones that appear to surround a dark undergarment. She wears a pair of knee-length boots and elbow-length gloves as well. Her weapon takes the form of a broad pata, which resembles an elongated shark tooth, featuring an unusual hilt with a hand guard that completely covers her hand. The sword also possesses what appear to be gill markings along either side of the blade. Harribel loses her three braids, making her hair become messy, and gains two blue lightning bolt markings on both sides of her face.

Resereccion Abilities:

In this form, Harribel's speed and strength increase immensely.

Water Manipulation: Her primary ability in this form is the creation and manipulation of water. The water used for her attacks is generated by the gill-markings on her blade.

Trident (トライデント, Toraidento): A technique that causes her sword to glow with spiritual energy and then allows Harribel to fire a high-force mist from her sword in a series of three shots. Upon contact, it can cause severe damage, capable of cutting an opponent in half with ease.



Hirviendo (灼海流 (イルビエンド), Irubiendo; Spanish for "Boiling", Japanese for "Burning Current"): Harribel points her blade out and instantly boils any form of water that comes close to it, including ice, and deflects it around her.



La Gota (戦雫 (ラ・ゴータ), Ra Gota; Spanish for "The Drop", Japanese for "War Drop"): Harribel is able to condense large amounts of water around her blade before firing it as a blast that resembles a shark tooth. She has also demonstrated the ability to fire multiple blasts in rapid succession with relative ease. The blasts strike with enough force to demolish houses.



Cascada (断瀑 (カスケーダ), Kasukeda; Spanish for "Waterfall", Japanese for "Cutting Waterfall"): Harribel launches a rushing surge of water at her enemy. The torrent of high pressure water is large enough to cover several town blocks.



Clones de Aqua (外埠のクローン, Water Clones): Simple, Harribel will create a replica of herself in a form of a water. This clone is able to do anything the actual Harribel can do but must be maintained with minimum concentration on it or else it will just return back into liquid water. Her limit of creating these are so far, just being two but will gradually increase as she gains the proficiency to be able to concentrate on more so-called clones of herself.

Invalido ("Cripple" in Spanish): This is pretty much self-explanatory but done in Harribel's unique way. As she is able to control the water, she naturally has the ability to control the humidity in the air. She will slowly decrease the humidity level so that the air molecules stay frozen in state binding the opponent within the vicinity they get caught it. They will be immobilized by moving and only heat effecting abilities can change this which usually ends up being useless as Harribel is still able to decrease it herself once again. So, the only available response is to use a sudden outburst of temperature effecting ability that Harribel will have time changing the temperature of and then get away from the vicinity as fast as possible.

The weakness is that Harribel is remaining completely defenseless as she must maintain the temperature of the micro-droplets around that area. This uses Hirviendo as the basic initializing ability to start this one. This is in no way unavoidable as there are many ways to get out this, it is just dependent upon the person's perceptive of their combat style. If you suck, you'll lose against this.

Inundación ("Flood" in Spanish): By collecting a tremendous amount of water supply from the special gills on her large blade placed upon her right hand, she is able to toss an enormous wave consisted of high pressurized water. There is enough water to completely cover a city. And, since she shoots it above herself, there is usually one way to dodge this. Either flash step away, run away as fast as you can, or if you have some water manipulative technique, you can use that to help yourselves. These waves destroy most objects on the surface due to the gravity weighing on it from above and it is pressurized.

Tromba (水低気圧 (旋風), tromba; Spanish for "Waterspout", Japanese for "Water Cyclone"): Harribel must first surround herself with a large amount of water. Afterwards, she turns all of the water into a massive water cyclone which she can control with her pata. The water is high pressure and not easily dispelled. Like all of her other water techniques, she can boil it at will. She claims that it is her ultimate attack. Nnoitra claims that the cyclone itself is rather weak, but Harribel reveals that the power behind the technique lies in her control over water pressure and heat. With these two things, she can both crush and scorch her foe, leaving them unable to fight back.

Cero Ambar: During the four hundred years of aimless wander and killing of remote hollows around Hueco Mundo, she has managed to pick up the basis of a new version of Cero. Upon charging it deliberately, she will launch a amber-black mixture of cero with a particularly bright yellow outline. Its power exceeds Gran Rey Cero (which is known to be the strongest full-powered cero to others). If anything, it is equal to the power of Cero Oscuras utilized by Ulquiorra. The strength of this cero is even capable of destroying half the dome of Las Noches. This, like any other cero's of Harribel, can be shot in a wide arc.

SEGUNDA ETAPA

Segunda Etapa Name:
Tiburon Desviado ("Devious Shark" in Spanish) Segunda Etapa

Segunda Etapa Release Phrase:
"Avenge, Tiburon Desviado."

Segunda Etapa Release Actions:

Harribel will lift the large blade attached to her right arm during her resurrecion stage. As it gets lifted up, sprinkles of water trickles out of the gills shining in what seems like a rainbow-like aura within it. It looks like water but the inside just seems to have all the color of the rainbow; even though it may seem vague to some people. She would hold up the blade high into the air so that the thing points directly above the sky. Without hesitation, she will shoot out a calm breeze of water that reaches above over the clouds. The water would fall back around her like how normal fountains in the parks would function on some people. The rain will be dense and intense that nobody will be able to see deep inside the rain.

After a while, it just starts revealing the newly shaped former Tres Espada standing there, not even soaked in the artificial rain that she created.

Segunda Etapa Appearance:


Harribel goes through substantially a very major phase from her resurrecion to her Segunda Etapa. Her outfit takes on such a drastic change. Almost all of her armor is gone and she's left to expose herself out in the open which she's not even bothered by at all. It's as if in her case, nudity is power... but, onto the actual description.

The most noticeable change of this appearance is the broad pata (her weapon attached to her arm) that disappeared. There are fins attached from her lower back that covers her entire leg area from the back. Between those fins are a shark tail with... what do you know, gills on it. In her resurrecion form, there was a bra-like structure covering her nipple but now, it seems to be a claw covering it. From her neck, a spine-like bone structure goes down between her breasts to her lower abdomen area, covering the necessities. On her thigh reveals two lightning bolt marks that her face adorns during her resurrecion.

Around her waist seems to be three chips of bones gripping at the sides. Her forearm is covered entirely in bone with black stripes while her hands are exposed. On her upper arm, another set of the lightning bolt tattoos are shown. On the back side of the neck reveals a spiky structure that leads down as a spine toward the tail and fins. Her legs are covered in bone leggings with segments, showing parts of her skin between each of them. As it goes down, a black legging under it can be noticed to her high-heeled boots.

Her hair also remarkably grows longer.

Segunda Etapa Abilities:

Resurrecion Abilities:

She still is able to retain the usages of her previous form's abilities. The only addition to this is that she can create a bit more advanced form of it. For example, her La Gota - instead of just destroying one house in her previous form - may now destroy skyscrapers with one of them. In short, they're all advanced and stronger in this form and can be controlled better.

Also adding, her Invalido can now be used on multiple targets due to her tendrils on the miniskirt. Her Tromba ability grows incredibly stronger in size and force itself.

Torpedo: Not considered to be an actual 'ability' but this is her weapon. She can literally summon it with her golden reiatsu. It takes the form of a spear, hence the name, but as if her ressurecion pata shrinked a bit and attached itself onto a long stick of bone (yes, it resembles a bone). It shares similar ability to the pata she formerly had but with a lot more enhanced features. In addition, she's able to repeatedly throw this at enemy in high-speed resulting in tremendous explosions. It's either a shoot-to-kill (no pun intended) technique, or a close-combat weapon. She uses it more for close-combat, however. It resembles a torpedo with the way it spirals and spins when thrown, hence the name.

Spoiler:

Overwhelming Spiritual Power: Harribel's spiritual power is... in one word, overwhelming. Despite already being immense during her unreleased stage, it still takes on a completely different nature in Segunda Etapa. It is so vast and wide that it can hardly be compared to spiritual power. It has the potential to bring almost anybody around her vicinity bow down unwillingly in fear.

Enhanced Speed: Tia obtains a tremendous amount of speed, rivaling those of the fastest Arrancar. The afterimages that she's capable of forming looks so real and due to her enormous speed, it takes about two seconds before they actually fade away. It's as if she's creating clones when in reality, she's just so fast that it looks like that. The way she swings and thrusts her javelin is almost unreal. It looks as if a woodpecker is constantly poking at something. Almost five times faster than the speed of her Resurrecion.

Enhanced Strength: Her strength also equally grows stronger. Her kicks and punches are so strong that it can felt from several meters away. When she kicks herself off from the surface, it immediately creates a crater before she flies at the target or opponent in super high-speed. It's almost four times as stronger than the strength of her Resurrecion.

PAST

History:

Prior to becoming an Arrancar, Harribel was a near-humanoid shark-like Vasto Lorde-class Menos. Some time ago she saved a female Adjuchas-class Hollow, Emilou Apacci, from another, male Adjuchas. Harribel took her back to her lair, where she introduced her to two other female Adjuchas, Cyan Sung-Sun and Franceska Mila Rose, as a new comrade. After Harribel broke up a small altercation between the other three Hollows, she explained that as female Hollows tend to be easy prey for the male ones, she brought Apacci and the other two Hollows there as she thought they gould be better if they worked as a group, rather than working alone. They later fought a Hollow who fled, Harribel having allowed him to get away. When they decided to rest, Apacci asked her why they should allow him to escape instead of devouring him. She explained the law of Las Noches and asked Harribel why she doesn't follow it. Harribel explained that she didn't want to become stronger by devouring and sacrificing others. She resolved that if she couldn't win alone she would win in a group. At some point Harribel and her group came face to face with the King of Hueco Mundo, Baraggan Louisenbairn and his court. The two revealed they had previous dealings with each other and upon meeting again Baraggan made note that he was tired of her rebellious attitude. He gave her a choice: either join his army or run off to an area he could not see, noting that there is no place in Las Noches he couldn't see. One of his servants attempted to persuade Harribel but ended up receiving a slash to his Hollow mask for his trouble, for which Baraggan scolded her for being so bold, but allowed her to leave unharmed.

Sometime later the group is attacked in their lair by a stranger. Harribel, who remembered him as the Hollow she attacked at her confrontation with Baraggan and his court, tried to fend him off. He proved his reiatsu to have been stronger then a Vasto Lorde-class Hollow such as Harribel and he quickly gained the upper hand. Harribel refused to give up and asked her subordinates to run away. Though they complied at first, they eventually came back as they resolved to die fighting for Harribel. The assailant quickly defeated the Adjuchas Hollows and then took out Harribel. He then stated his intention to kill her and join the upper ranks of Hueco Mundo. They were interrupted by the arrival of Sōsuke Aizen, who blocked the attack and stated that such power was only natural for an Arrancar as he dispatched him personally. He then noted that the power of sacrifice allowed for many impossible things and apologized to Harribel stating that he gave the assailant Arrancar powers, but not a brain to control it. He then explained the concept of the sacrifice and asked Harribel to join him if she wanted to be strong enough to protect her subordinates.

Harribel initially appears as one of several Arrancar who attend the return of Ulquiorra Cifer and Yammy Llargo after their initial intrusion in the human world. Both she and Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez are the only Espada seen attending the meeting.

She is later also seen with several other Espada (including Grimmjow's replacement Luppi Antenor) during the creation of Wonderweiss Margela.

Harribel appears again during Aizen's meeting about Ichigo Kurosaki, Yasutora Sado and Uryū Ishida entering Hueco Mundo to save Orihime Inoue. After Aizen warns the Espada to treat the intruders with caution, Nnoitra Gilga makes a comment stating that they look weak. She tells him that if he had listened to what Aizen just said he would have heard him state that they shouldn't take the intruders lightly. Nnoitra says that is not what he meant and tells her not to get testy before asking her if she is scared. Harribel only gives him a cold stare. Grimmjow interrupts the brewing confrontation by attempting to walk out against Aizen's orders. She alongside the other Espada sit silently while Aizen subdues Grimmjow with his Spiritual Pressure to keep him in line.

She is later seen just after Aaroniero Arruruerie is killed, observing the atmosphere of Hueco Mundo, when one of her Fracción, Emilou Apacci, ask her what they should do about his death.

During Ichigo's fight with Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, she and her Fracción watch from afar talking about the battle. When her Fracción begin to question what is going on in the battle Harribel tells them not to worry about it. As they are witnessing the battle of an Espada in his Resurrección form she says it is understandable for them to be frightened, as that is their primal fear and they should value it. Harribel wonders whether or not the one that he is fighting is truly a Human, as she would never think that the volume, concentration, and catastrophic nature of his reiatsu would be that of a humans', stating that the battle seems to be more like one between two Espada than anything else.

After Aizen travels to Karakura Town, he summons Harribel, along with her Fracción and the two other strongest Espada and their Fracción, to the fake Karakura Town in order to do battle with the forces from the Gotei 13.

Captain-Commander Yamamoto then uses his Shikai to trap the opposing captains (Aizen, Ichimaru, and Tōsen). As Baraggan notes this, Harribel says he is underestimating Aizen. He simply retorts that she is underestimating him.[12] Baraggan then decides to take control of the situation himself while Harribel and the others stand around and watch.

After the pillars that keep the real Karakura Town in Soul Society are successfully defended, Harribel enters into battle with Captain Tōshirō Hitsugaya. Harribel draws her sword and she and Hitsugaya clash. As the they battle she tells Hitsugaya that she felt a disturbance in his spiritual energy, in reference to the arrival of Momo Hinamori. He tells her that he has no idea what she is talking about.

When her Fracción, Apacci, Mila Rose, and Sung-Sun, are defeated, she ups her tactics against Hitsugaya. Harribel condenses energy in the hollow portion of her sword and slashes at him. She then unzips her jacket, revealing her rank as the Tres Espada. Hitsugaya finds it difficult to believe she is only the third strongest Espada, but Harribel starkly warns him she has not begun to show him the extent of her power. She unzips the rest of her jacket to reveal the frightening remains of her mask covering the lower half of her face. Acknowledging the seriousness of this fight against such a powerful opponent, Hitsugaya activates his Bankai, as Harribel directly charges at him forcing him to block.

The two continue to fight as Hitsugaya crashes into a building below, questioning if this is a captain's strength and wondering how Apacci, Mila Rose, and Sung-Sun could have lost. Harribel then releases her Zanpakutō. She is enveloped in a cocoon of water which she cuts herself out of, emerging in her Resurrección form, equipped with a dangerously large sword-like weapon. As Hitsugaya looks on, Harribel raises her sword and delivers a seemingly fatal blow. Believing her enemy defeated, she says that he is no match for her: “One blow from the Shark, and the Ice Dragon sinks into the sea.”

Seeing Yamamoto on the side of battle, she approaches him and threatens to exact her revenge against him for taking the lives of her subordinates. Suddenly, Hitsugaya appears behind her and nearly lands a blow but she ducks and counters. Wondering how her opponent survived unharmed, Hitsugaya explains he made an illusion in his image out of ice as a precaution once she released, this ice clone being what she struck down. Hitsugaya then tells Harribel not to underestimate their strength.

As their fight ensues, Harribel reveals her release form has the ability to create and manipulate water, which she uses to fire at Hitsugaya from afar. Hitsugaya freezes the water and says water is useless against his ice. Harribel defiantly states that it isn't useless and that she will soon show him. The two continue to banter as Hitsugaya sends an ice dragon towards her, against which Harribel reveals her Hirviendo technique boiling away the water as it is deflected around her. Harribel then states that if her water can become Hitsugaya's weapon, the moment he realized that, he must have realized the opposite was true as well. Those are the rules of battle. She then uses her Cascada to attack Hitsugaya.

Hitsugaya, however, freezes most of the water before it can crush him. The two continue fighting, using each other’s weapons against them. Hitsugaya manages to freeze Harribel but she quickly breaks free. He tells her another law of battle, that one faces the greatest danger when one uses their best attack. Their attacks continue as Hitsugaya concludes that Harribel is waiting for the same thing as him, waiting for the battlefield to be filled with condensation so she can finish him off in one blow. He states that neither will ever get anywhere if they’re both after the same thing. Hitsugaya then says to her that he has never tried this in Bankai mode, prompting Harribel to ask what he is talking about. He explains that he doesn't have to wait for water: as Hyōrinmaru is the most powerful ice-based Zanpakutō, all water is his weapon and all of heaven is under his command. Hitsugaya then activates his Hyoten Hyakkaso technique.

Harribel stares up at the sky in amazement as it becomes filled with dark storm clouds, asking what this is. Hitsugaya explains the ability and asks for her name, to which she replies "Tres Espada, Tier Harribel." Hitsugaya then states his name and rank before attacking. A hole in the sky opens much to Harribel's surprise, and snow begins to fall. Harribel attempts to melt the snow with her sword, but the moment her sword touches the snow, ice flowers begin to bloom on her body, causing her to become alarmed. Hitsugaya tells her that the Hyoten Hyakkaso technique makes whoever touches the snow instantly freezes like a flower. As she is quickly encased in ice, Hitsugaya calmly tells her that once all one hundred ice flowers have bloomed, she will die. He then states that she won't be able to avenge her underlings after all. The one hundred ice flowers encase Harribel in a gigantic ice-flower obelisk.

When Wonderweiss Margela arrives, he lets out a high pitched scream which shatters the ice holding Harribel. She rises from the ice obelisk without any noticeable sign of injury and gives a cold stare to the shocked Hitsugaya.

As Hitsugaya contemplates the words of Sajin Komamura about fighting alongside the newly arrived Vizard, Harribel goes to attack him while his back is turned, although he still notices her. However, before she can strike Hitsugaya, the Vizard Lisa Yadōmaru suddenly appears above her and blocks her sword while another Vizard, Hiyori Sarugaki, appears next to her and pushes her back. Lisa Yadōmaru suddenly charges at Harribel. She is then seen blocking an attack from Lisa and states that she thought that the three of them would come at her at once.

After Starrk's death, she is seen still fighting Lisa and Hiyori who have now summoned their hollow masks and alongside Hitsugaya all three release their Shikai. The four all clash causing an explosion. However, Aizen, who notices their fight, suddenly appears behind Harribel. She turns, noticing his presence as he approaches her. Before she can react, Aizen slashes Harribel across her midsection. She is shocked as Aizen only responds that he is done with her, as it appears that she is not strong enough to fight for him.

Aizen further states that he never thought, after all the trouble he went through to gather the Espada, that he alone would be more powerful than the lot of them. Harribel looks at Aizen with rage and retaliates by stabbing him through the chest with her sword. Aizen's expression does not change as he says dealing with her is such a pain, surprising Harribel. She then realizes that she attacked an illusion and that she has been stabbed from the back of her left shoulder by the real Aizen. He then states that he will never allow her to raise her sword against him again and withdraws his sword, sending Harribel plummeting into the city below.

She ended up being healed by someone that she has a vague memory of (it is possible that it was Orihime but not confirmed!) and made her way back to Hueco Mundo with her fraccions. During the four hundred years, she wandered around aimlessly with her fraccions. She has managed to pick up various moves from her views and has even reached the ascended form of a Resurrecion, the Segunda Etapa. At first, she was unable to control the likes of its power. Her spiritual power was so enormous that even Adjuchas-level hollows dissipated when it neared around her. The only ones who were able to survive her vast amount of spiritual power was her fraccions, who has also gone remotely stronger than last time.

As of now, she is not affiliated with anyone and refuses to do so with Ashlei, the new Cero Espada. Tia knows that Ashlei is a powerful being, but doesn't fit with the leader roll of Arrancar. The former Tres Espada even comes back and forth around the realms of Soul Society, the Human World and Hueco Mundo. Her fraccions are still majorly loyal to her and is ready to give their lives once again. Also, Tia also forbids them from summoning Ayon unless the situation desires it or Tia herself orders it.

RP Sample:

The blonde former Espada was walking around the desert of Hueco Mundo silently. Her three fraccions trailed along from the back. Apache held up her arms annoyingly then folded them behind her head. "This is so boring!" She complained as she still continued to walk. Mila-Rose sighed at how annoying the blue-haired arrancar was but didn't say anything, not wanting to make a scene while the fights between various hollows were going on around them. Sun-Sun only managed to let out a snort.

Harribel clearly heard Apache but kept walking. "Isn't this nostalgic, ladies? That is... if you still remember our place of belonging." She smiled softly behind the collar that covered her mouth along with the hollow fragments. It has been so long since they've walked down this particular area of the desert. The fraccions were confused for a moment until Mila-Rose widened her eyes in surprise at how familiar the place was becoming. "This... it's still here?" She asked, pursing her big pink lips together after the question.

"Huh?" Apache grunted irritably at Mila-Rose. "What are you talking about, Gorilla?!" She shouted her nickname angrily. The fraccion addressed twitched anime-style, showing visibly above her head. "You probably got hit in the head too hard during the fight. Stop being stupid." Apache finished with a shrug. Mila-Rose twitched again once more, another sign revealing next to the other one. But, upon calming down she sighed. "You're lucky I'm a lot more calm now." She retorted, eyeing the surroundings to find their former house if that's what Harribel was mentioning. They were still walking through the deserts and many pillars started to show itself. Sun-Sun managed to catch on finally, snickering but Apache didn't yet.

"Whatever, Gorilla." She insulted once more. Mila-Rose, out of patience, twirled around and grabbed her by the collar violently. Her head grew unrealistically bigger while Apache's head shrunk from the sudden expansion and started to shout, "Say that again, you annoying little brat!" The dark-skinned one shouted. Apache came back with her own expansion of the size. "I'll say it as much as I want, Gorilla!" Their heads came back to normal size and they were glaring at each other, electricity sparking between their eyes. As their argument went on, Harribel already went on ahead. In reality, she felt happy that her fraccions were alive. They weren't just fraccions or hollows for her use, they were friends that are important to her. They're the sole purpose Harribel was able to survive until now.

Sun-Sun sighed at the two of her equal, turning back to follow the superior one. "You two keep on fighting while Harribel-sama and I have a glorious time at the place." She called, her voice barely muffled by the sleeve covering her mouth. Apache glared at the green-haired. "What are you talking about?!" Mila-Rose was already trudging along. "Just follow Harribel-sama, you brat." "Shut up, Gorilla." They shared another spark before following them.

After a few minutes of silence, they came across the place they used to call... home. Las Noches wasn't there home; this was the place they called home. Harribel entered first, being the leader figure around them and took a glance around the place. Everything looked normal except a particularly destroyed wall that showed the desert.

"Woah!" A sound erupted which obviously belonged to Apache. "This place hasn't changed at a- nevermind. That broken wall is still there from long time ago." She had her hand gripped onto her sides, an angry expression on her face like usual. Mila-Rose walked past her toward the broken area that Harribel intently stared at. "Shut up and help fixing the wall." Apache glared at her. "What about Sun-Sun?!" She asked, then glanced at said person. Sun-Sun was already working. "She's doing something unlike you." The lion-lady said, using some of her reiatsu to reconstruct the area. "Shut up, Gorilla..." No argument started this time as they did their work.

Meanwhile, Harribel was thinking about the past. The time where she was getting demolished by the one who caused this explosion. Comparing her right now to her past... she has become a lot stronger with the help of Aizen. Within her heart, she hated Aizen but she couldn't stop thanking the man. It was because of him that Harribel and her fraccion survived for this long. A sudden idea crawled up to her invisibly about the broken wall.

"Ladies," She alerted the others. They immediately stopped on what they were doing to listen. "I would like the wall to remain as a memorial factor. Let us learn from the past to become the best that we can in the future." She said. They grinned without objection and stopped the project. Harribel still stared at the broken wall, absorbing all the events that happened. Her fraccions didn't even know that she was smiling.

She was happy.

An Alternate Return...

Tia Harribel was surrounded by all shinigami but only to have her life taken out by the very person she trusted the very person who gave her a chance at a better life to join something in which she believed in. This was an unsettling feeling just before that shinigami commander wiping her fraccions people which she allowed to join her in her crusade each of them and her creation Ayon being defeated one old man. Just now seeing blood and Aizen the person who attacked her it wasn't only that it was the bastard had the nerve the say to her just as he slashed her with his Zanpakutō that the Arrancar the espada group was inferior. They all were betrayed by this monster her power was fading fast her friends were all gone each espada and all the Arrancar except Grimmjow met their end either at the hands of a Shinigami of the extermination squads. Aizen had betrayed them all but Tia wasn't going to have end like this is she was going to die, she damn well was going to take this bastard with her with all of her strength she managed to impale him with her weapon. If fate has it the hour of judgement was at hand and it seemed Tia was going to have some measure of revenge against the person who betrayed the espadas. But something was wrong, Tia felt like she was being stabbed again she was actually caught under the shinigami's spell of his shikai power which was perfect hypnosis the bastard wounded her again like rat shooting somebody in the back. Tia couldn't believe it this Aizen had powers beyond her and even Stark, he managed to deceive the people he brought in to help him in his quest for power she wonders what his true purpose was for the espadas. The other shinigami and vizards watched as Tia felt to the ground the former espada she had only time for one dream thinking about this Ichigo Kurosaki and how powerful he was against Grimmjow that day. She wondered if that vizard could actually exact revenge against Aizen for all the people she hurt the only thing she would want to see Ichigo defeated Aizen ending his evil dreams for power. Since Barragan was gone she never got what she wanted after the king's demise to become the queen of Hueco Mundo maybe some day some other arrancar will have the very dream and achieve it for herself. The espada's eyes were getting heavy her life was fading from her, Aizen played his game with the espada but she was hoping someone would stop him and his evil ambitions for good.

Tia finally closed her eyes but it wasn't going to be the end of her a shadowy figure approaches her by some means of teleportation looking at her body thankfully no one was able to sense him. The guy manages to carry Harribel to somewhere safe as seeing the battle above him and then looking at Harribel a beautiful woman as the guy orders his companion to help her fraccions and get them back to health. Ichigo Kurosaki was putting out a fight against Aizen, Tia was in critical condition and needed treatment the shadow guy knew this espada won't be able to see it but he promised that her revenge was being taken care of. The only important thing right now was saving this former espada and her fraccions the two warriors disappeared in just mere seconds. Days later, Tia had some trouble opening her eyes but she was wondering was this the afterlife or Heaven perhaps Hell was where she belonged but it was neither. Opening her eyes fully, Tia was alive her wounds were completely gone and her fraccions were healing slowly but their were doing alright. Someone was smoking a cigarette looking at her as she looking scare for a second but this maybe the man who saved her life she didn't much care why he did it but who was he. "Who are you??? Where am I??? I remember Aizen attacking me" She said. The guy was smiling and proud she was alright it been days since she could fully healed from all those bandages and healing spells which were performed to save her life. "Relax, I saw what happen to you it took me days cleaning the blood and healing your wounds and your fraccion wounds as well...that dude messed you up badly...Lucky I was around and decided to help" He said. Tia started to get up but her arm was a little tender the guy helped her seeing that Aizen pierced her body he actually pierced her shoulder bone but the guy was helpful in her recouperation. "My name is Kade Hiroshima ex-demon honor guard and I'm here to help you" He said.

It took some time but Tia finally was feeling better and her fraccion were alright too feeling like she was her old self again but now Tia and her fraccion had a friend which they could trust. Mila was wondering who the jerk was anyway and why would he go out of his way to help them they didn't need any friends, Sun Sun thought they all wouldn't be breathing if he hadn't helped them. Tia looked at Kade as the demon was waving still she or her fraccion wouldn't be alive if the demon didn't help she wonders if maybe she could return the favor one day. Tia had a lot on her mind as she and her fraccion traveled back into Las Noches hearing the rumors that Aizen was actually defeated by Ichigo Kurosaki. But this was perfect for her with Aizen being defeated she could actually take over Las Noches for herself....
