Name: Rihiku Hitsugaya
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown to all but Himself

Appearance:

Spoiler:

Rihiku himself stands at 6'4 and is a rather slim build with enough muscle mass to not look too skinny. He has pretty much no fat on his bones, but pure muscle that shows off his power. His hair is of a perfect blizzard white that is combed back in perfect symmetry. There's some strange reason as to why he has it like that, but he does and its perfect. This does reveal his forehead though, but it tends to always be very clean as it adds to his formal appearance. His eyes are of a beautiful blue as the colour of diamonds guarded by a deadly azure drake. His stare is no different to the gaze of the beast.

Rihiku wears a long blue jacket that is about 5'1 in length. The back, sides and front are printed dragons in a gold and white colour that symbolises his dragon theme. Directly on the back is a golden Kanji for the word: Dragon. His legs are hidden within a pair of trendy black jeans but what is special about them is his contract with his sword, taking parts of a dragon through his blade to apply to his own armour when he can. His jeans are lined in a powerful dust taken from the scales of a dragon and fused into the threads. This makes it seem as though his jeans were made of metal yet he can still move as normal. His boots are of a dark blue colour and matches his jacket a bit. The fact that they are made of tough leather makes them durable already, but the soles of the shoes are also fused with the Dust of dragon scales making his kicks feel harder from the bottom of the boot. On his right hand is a single brown gloves, fingerless and with the kanji for fang printed in gold similar to the Dragon Kanji on his back. He doesn't run around with his bare chest revealed though. Underneath the jacket is a hard metal jacket used in some military factions to defend against conventional bullets. Rihiku however, embedded his Dragon dust from Haikenmarus body to empower the breastplate and make his chest more resilient. The appearance of the chest plate itself looks like black stripes of metal horizontally going across his chest.

Personality:

Rihiku is a dedicated man. He always tries his best to perform in a manly manner and show everybody that he is the ultimate Alpha male. He will not take no for an answer and despises all men that are weak or cowardly. That is not how a man should not act and they should stand proud to defend their loves ones and follow orders to the death. There is one thing you wont see Rihiku do and that is to be anywhere near children. He cannot stand being anywhere near meddling kids and will not take them at all seriously let alone remember their names. This is probably why he doesn't have a girlfriend seeing as he hates kids and tends to stray far away from people younger than him.

Rihiku somewhat disregards and doesn't tolerate the use of jokes and puns especially within combat. If anybody joked about his power they would not see the light of day again. He will not show mercy to people that mess around in battle, show off or insult peoples skill. People need to respect the will and equilibrium of battle as nobody should have to pull tricks and stunts to win a fight against their opponent. Rihiku is even prepared to lay his life on the line for the sake of battle. Similar to Kenpachi, he enjoys the fight but the difference is how Rihiku doesn't like to show it. If he battles an opponent that is clearly stronger than him or gave him a good battle and he lost with the penalty being death, he will be happy. If he died against somebody weaker to him, an accident or something that disturbed the equilibrium, he will regret his entire life.

Because of his will of battle, he will never cause a fight to break out on his own. He cannot be traced back as the one that started a battle because he never strikes until somebody attempts to strike him. He may possibly challenge an opponent or even draw his blade as a threat, but he will not openly attack someone without declaring a fight. That's just the noble and honest guy he is.

However all of his hates and dislikes must lead onto things he does like. There has always been one thing that will make the man smile and that is a blend of solitude and winter. Rihiku savours his time alone as nobody can possibly interrupt his peace. The time in the world where one does not have to listen nor do anything. It is his calling to remain silent. It is also to stand in the white vast snow where he belongs. Rihiku has often travelled to the north pole just to stand still and watch the blizzards go by. This is his definition of peace and what he strives to protect with his sword.

There are some comical features to Rihiku including the way he can be easily manipulated due to his tough nature. Some people like to refer to him as a heartless samurai and call him names because they know it annoys him. He will not leave his house or even his bedroom chambers when the sun is too bright and hot. he actually insists to do battle on a rainy or cloudy day so he doesn't feel like a slush puppy. This also reflects how much he hates people that use fire powers against him as his abilities are immune to fires temperatures but still make him sweat. He also wont talk to people that are faster than he is. Theres something about being the fastest Shinigami alive that he want's to uphold but he clearly knows there are fast people out there. Luckily, he is fully capable to keep up with most.

There is another thing one can easily tell about RIhiku by looking at his past and that is his constant stream of bad luck. There have been so many occasions where he wanted something done in a certain way to have enemy forces ruin his plan or even his own ideas not being possible to perform. Rihiku is the Meister of bad luck which isn't anything he is proud of but will use this to his own advantage, blaming his own faults on luck and karma for his previous actions in life.

History/Background:

Rihiku is the man that everybody wanted to arrive in soul society. The popularity of his brother was so high within the universe boundaries that when they heard his older brother was going to be travelling to Soul Society again, they were ecstatic. Crowds of rukongai residents helped the Shinigami create an opening ceremony to welcome this man into the Seireitei and back into the court guards where he belonged. However, His attitude was far more distant as he wanted very little to do with the Shinigami. After a single week of meeting everyone again, he left suddenly to the hatred of his brother Toushiro. Rihiku's betrayals were forgotten by most but this captain was too unforgiving towards his brother to ever let those memories disappear. He hates him for it.

A few hundred years ago when both the Hitsugaya brothers were children, they had a big falling out. Rihiku looked like a 16 year old teen and his younger brother was merely an 8 in looks. This didn't mean his attitude was that of a child. the two brothers were the best of friends and looked after each other as best they could. It would usually involved Rihiku doing all the work because Toushiro was getting into trouble with the locals. His little brothers stubborn attitude would get him into a mess with the local residents where Rihiku would have to step in to stop him from doing anything stupid. He didn't like doing this and his brother certainly hated the fact that he kept getting in the way of his fights. In fact, Rihiku pretty much caused Toushiro's anger issues with all his meddling. This may not sounds like a brotherly friendship, but the two were close and were forgiving towards each other. They always made sure the other was healthy and out of trouble.

One day, Rihiku had taken enough. He was tired of such a boring life with his younger brother in Rukongai and getting him out of stupid messes. Even though Toushiro was beginning to get the idea, Rihiku believed he would never grow up properly if he keeps being such a stubborn ass. So suddenly with no notice, He went off on his own and didn't come back. he didn't even bother leaving a message or ntoe to tell his brother what he had done. Toushiro had no idea where he had gone and was left alone in a home that barely stood together. After a few days, Toushiro knew he was alone and suggested the worst possible causations. Did Rihiku die? was he kidnapped? But later, Toushiro spotted Rihiku walking away from rukongai and into the woods. When Rihiku noticed his follower, he just told him to get away from him and let him live his own life. This, caused the little hitsugayas anger to flare up more than ever. His brother had just walked out to leave him in this horrible life. he wanted him dead for leaving him but his luck managed to turn around as within a week, Momo Hinamori started to visit with Toushiro often as a new resident. Their story was played out on a different path.

What Rihiku had actually done was walk off to the Shinigami academy and attack a guard, ordering him to get clearance to enter. Without warning, a few more Shinigami turned up and Rihiku wasn't having any of it. He lashed out and pounded his way into a few before he was grabbed and piled onto the floor. In anger, he continued to lash out but the Shinigami were much stronger than he was so after managing to hold him together, they took him into the Seireitei prison. Soon after a meeting about him, he was taken to the maggots nest and thrown in with all the lunatics that tried to attack him daily. After just a day, Rihiku had gone somewhat insane. it doesn't take long for a wanting soul to linger. Sitting in a jail cell all alone with the howling lunatics he lived with. This wasn't the life he was after. He wanted power to make his life give birth to meaning and reason. Here, he was just a fly on the wall of irrelevance. Many huge men attacked him, leaving him no choice but to use what he had taught himself. Even with minor strength over these men he was still fighting for survival. Those that got close would see to his wrath. Soon, his anger took the better of him.

It was routine surveillance that night where the guards wandered to each camera and took their footage to use as research or just to check for any activity. However, as a guard walked past Rihiku's cell, he reached out and grabbed him round the neck. Yanking heard, he broke his spine joint and crushed his throat before he could yell. Scrambling frantically, Rihiku took the keys to the several locks and chambers around the area out of the guards pockets. As an act of rage, he quickly unlocked every door he could find and released hundreds of the people that were kept here. This caused the entire Gotei 13 to turn up at the front door, armed with their weapons and Kidō primed. As everyone poured out the single doorway, Rihiku took the stealthier route around the back. Chuckling to himself at their foolishness, Rihiku escaped and ran to Rukongai. At this point Toushiro had no idea that his brother was a fugitive and that he caused the huge pandemic of insane criminals that attempted to flee from their prison. That night became a blood feast as all the criminals were slain and many shinigami had been killed. Seeing no other refuge, Rihiku crept back into his old home where his little brother slept. He climbed into the basement and took refuge there to come up with a better plan.

A few days passed and Rihiku attempted to get into the academy once more. He stalked the registry officer and stole the papers during the night. By doing this, he wrote his name on the confirmed applicants and arrived the next day in the opening ceremony. Soon, after the several years it takes for a student to graduate, he left the academy with more than a name for himself. One of the students one the day of graduation realised that Rihiku was the guy that attacked the guard all those years ago. It turns out, the guard he had previously pounded had been killed in the event he caused in the maggots nest. He got a lot of bad ground when this kid found out that he also caused the maggots event. A lot of criminals died that day seeing as they were considered dead already. Some Shinigami weren't as lucky either. This kid became a big problem as he could ruin Rihiku's chances of ever graduating properly. So one day, in a completely random attack, Rihiku grabbed him and held his body up to the wall. Nobody was there to see the boy lose his life as a katana cut his head clean off. Then, his body was thrown into the 80th district of Rukongai to rot with the thugs that lived there. No shinigami ever found his corpse. Rogue hollows probably got him first.

Rihiku managed to pick up a thought in his mind as he took work in a squad. He had left his old life behind with the brother that he loved. Now, they were both alone in this world and they had no idea how the other was going. Still, he walked forwards with pride that he was now a shinigami. It didn't matter as he had now a Zanpakutō of his own to fuel his dreams. His younger brother no longer a thought now that he had power. He was just a memory from the old days of weakness.

A few years later, Rihiku was was found to be attacking hollows with the rest of his squad. He had managed to gain a vice captain position in his squad and was respected by all his subordinates. However, his power wasn't as great as most vice Captains at this point. His sealed state was a powerful source on its own and he was deemed suitable as a fighting source. However, they were outnumbered 100 to 6 and saw little chance of victory. Their captain was fighting a powerful creature in the distance and couldn't lend a hand. In this turmoil, Rihiku lunged and attacked to the best of his abilities. his blade crushed the hollows that began to fight but for every one he killed, two more would turn up out of nowhere. Quickly, his comrades fell all around him until one more was still standing. A peculiar girl with blue hair down to her hips and a dark look about her. Her blue hair was tied up in a clip that gave her pony tail some lift so it didn't get in the way during fights. She took great interest in Rihiku and haunted his every step. She had a very weird feeling towards Rihiku as he was covered in a dark aura she could see.

She went by the name of Miko Sayanashi and was a very pretty girl. Rihiku had looked at her a few times in the squad with the same thought and took that further by asking her to join him for lunch. She thought she had been caught doing something bad but Rihiku didn't care. Soon, they became great friends and swore to protect each other. She was curious of his dark aura and he was curious as to her weird attitude and flooding reitsu.

Back in the fight, Rihiku stood his ground with Miko who managed to fight back to back for a whole 5 minutes before something went dramatically wrong. A hollow leapt behind Rihiku with a heavy slice of its claws, the girl fell to the floor using her body as a shield with her quick reactions. Miko knew that she wasn't going to survive this fight and Rihiku was a greater asset than she would ever be. This caused his past anger to return. He was still too weak to survive which means he is no different than he was all those years ago. All his comrades were dead. He looked at the blood littered floor and a few tears fell to the winds. Looking up quickly, he yelled as loud as he could. Without even realising what he was doing, he sheathed his blade and tore off the scabbard. Blue fire leapt everywhere as he yelled out a name in an emotional rage.

This caused everything around him to explode in a violent rage of blue flames. Flames so cold the bodies that were hit froze into statues. He continued to roar out his heart as fire shot in every direction. His hand became clasped to a large sword that was different to his other. A voice rang through his head telling him to stop but he didn't listen. Soon, he fainted and crashed to the floor, surrounded by a forest now encased in ice and dead hollows.

Later, he awoke in his squad barracks with a few people looking over him. Some were angry because their friends were killed and they blamed him for it. the ice everywhere was surely his doing and that was the only causation of their deaths. Rihiku, with no memory of the incident believed them. Even though he was fending for his life, he chose to believe that he killed them all. Soon, everyone despised him. The team killer that nobody would work with. he was often laughed at because of his incompetence but he did nothing except listen to what they had to say. That was until his rage grew too far. news spread that his captain was also slain that day with a huge ice covered corpse and this took Rihiku to the Edge. He lashed out at the remainder of his squad for torturing his mind for so long. His sword began to glow as he repeated his previous actions.

Quickly, his word became that he saw before. A double edged and several piece great sword. Then, with a few blasting attacks, he destroyed his barracks and slaughtered those he deemed unworthy of his thoughts. Before long, captains flocked to his location thus making him need to flee. He ran for his life as the stealth force tracked him down. Attacking furiously until he reached the Senkai gate, he leapt through to the living world and hid.

Now, until this day, Rihiku Hitsugaya has been seen as a fugitive that killed team mates and fought friends. That's not him at all. He just wanted to survive. Knowing nothing about the living world, he took refuge in whatever he could find and did whatever he could to keep his body in top condition. Hollows attacked every single day and he would kill them all with his new powers. This just brought even more hollows to his location and he became completely engulfed in the hollows. Nobody knows if he lived or died in the real world. But those that know the truth, know that he is no longer a real shinigami. His soul was too torn to ever become what he used to be again.

From that point, he wandered Hueco Mundo in search for something. A past event caused him to become interested in the Hollows. He didn't trust the Vizards to assist in Hollow knowledge because they were all part Shinigami. At the moment, he hated Shinigami more than anyone else would. Then he met the Espada for the first time. He challenged them to a fight and they all drew their blades ready to attack, but the Cero Espada just stared. She gave a completely dumbfounded look and the other Espada were surprised at her. Quickly, she gave the order to make Rihiku her personal Bodyguard. He doesn't know why she chose to, but it made him ever so closer to gaining even more power through the hollows. That was until a few years apssed under her service that he was forced to leave. Upon doing so, he met his match in the living world and gave in to their ideals as the stronger power. His fate was determined there and then as he was captured and taken to Soul Society to be trailed for his actions against The Shinigami.

"My brother hates me because of what I am doing... but do I really care about that insignificant insect? My swords can freeze ice itself and turn fire into a useless block. There's no way I'm stopping this crusade now..."

Zanpakutô Spirit Name: Haikenmaru Diacrushen

Shikai Appearance:



Haikenmaru resembles a rather powerful monster the size of a large building. The creature is female in gender but this is only noticeable from its voice. Haikenmaru merely opens her mouth and words flow without her moving her jaw almost like thoughts. Rihiku does not fear this creature as he knows the two of them battle as one. The power of his Zanpakutō is resembled in the prideful soul of a dragon.

Bankai Appearance:




In Bankai haikenmaru becomes her true self as she mimics Rihikus racial attirubtes to turn herself into a humanoid. She is rather tall at 6'0 and tends to wear a japanese themed school uniform or even just a white Shirt unbuttoned. Rihiku always finds her appearance in this form annoying. Also whenever she materialises, she will always appear in bankai form even if he was in shikai due to her human form being easier to handle than a gigantic dragon. Haikenmaru's distinctive feature is her blue colors. Her clothes are outlined in blue, Her eyes are the same blue as Rihiku himself and her hair is blue too in a brilliantly tied up style.

Inner World:
The inner world of the Frozen Betrayer is that of a massive open field that raises and drops along a cliff edge to the western side. Through the centre from north to south is a running river about 20ft wide so nothing special. The grass is of a very dark charcoal blue and so is the night sky as day never occurs here.

Sealed Zanpakutô Apperance :
Haikenmaru in her sealed state looks very similar to a simple katana used by the court squads. However, this one has a blade coloured blue and a handle of pure white. Its design is simple with a couple of diamond shaped metal coloured blue on the handle. The blade itself has a white zig-zag going up to the tip.

Sealed Zanpakutô Abilities:
It is not classed as an ability that he gains through his sword but even in sealed state it is very wise to comment on the serious speed Rihiku emits when in combat. Rihiku has mastered a number of movement speed techniques that make him an incredibly unpredictable person. This is one trick everyone needs to be wary of around him.

PhatomTech: None

Release: Stand, Haikenmaru!

Rihiku holds his sword out with the blade pointing down to the floor. he will then stand like this with one hand by his side and looking intently towards a target. He will then shout the command of his sword 'STAND!' and the sword glows a vibrant blue as wind starts to circle the blade visually. Then when he yells 'HAIKENMARU' the blade shines brighter so it cannot be seen, enough to blind those looking at it. Soon the blade chills as the light fades away revealing a sort of invisible sword. The blade has in fact turned into ice.

Shikai Description: The entire sword would have turned into a perfect replica of the sealed blade but is about 85% invisible due to the fact that it is made of Ice. The sword can be noticed easily as it is of a blue shade and its easy to tell that he is holding a sword. He uses this as well as many other blades that mimic the original sword. Nothing more happens to the shikai appearance except from the way he holds the blades.

Shikai Abilities:
Theme: The Generation and regeneration of Ice Into Swords.

Permanent Blades: Rihiku is capable of summoning 6 permanent swords made of ice from the palms of his hands to use in combat. 6 is his maximum for permanent blades but he can always throw some away and replace them with others.

Temporary Blades: Rihiku is also capable of spawning temporary swords as well. These do not count to his total of 6 swords as they work as attacks rather than weapons themselves even though he could effectively pick them up. This ability is core to his techniques and can spawn only when a permanent makes contact with the required surface. This usually is just something flat but some moves can affect the target. The length of the swords can only reach 4ft and can be as small as 30cm. Upon impact of any of his techniques, he can spawn another sword out of the point of impact but not on a target but only scenery. This merely gives his every attack onto the environment an Area of Effect.

Absolute Zero: Rihiku also retains the original Absolute Zero ability that runs through the Hitsugaya family. Any ice generated by Rihiku himself cannot be melted by change in temperature or being hit by any means that would otherwise melt normal ice. Rihiku himself has to will the ice to melt if he so desires.

Sword Stance: Rihiku is open to new techniques depending on how many swords he holds at any given time. he can switch between them by merely dropping or generating more swords. The following are simply how he holds them:

• 1 Sword: Two Hands
  
• 2 Swords: One Hand Each
  
• 3 Swords: One Hand Each, one attached on his waist from behind
  
• 4 Swords: One hand for two swords, one upright and one facing down
  
• 5 Swords: One hand for two swords, one upright, one down and one on his waist from behind
  
• 6 Swords: One Hand for three swords, Held between his fingers with a tight grip.
  
  

Techniques:

Techniques are merely ways of which Rihiku is able to use his weapons. Do not consider these as abilities as he can perform these even if they were not written in the app. Its just the way he will fight with a different number of swords.

1 Sword:

Wyvern Slash: Rihiku swings his sword once but the speed he moves creates 2 more slashes shown by blue streaking glows

Wyverns Reverse: Rihiku strikes from one side. Mid swing, Rihiku will suddenly shunpo and attack from the other side as the first swing was a feign.

Focus Fang: Rihiku throws his sword using his speed to make it seem like he didn't even move his arm. The blade zooms in the direction thrown in a dart fashion so it doesn't spin through the air. Upon hitting a surface, the sword will generate 4 Temporary swords out of the point of impact. This can be very painful even if it wasn't a direct hit as the swords can be shocking when the enemy is unaware of them. The swords do not spawn on the tip of the permanent sword, but of the impact point.

Dragons Eye: Rihiku holds his arm out with the sword firmly gripped in his hand. He then swings his arm in a circle to build momentum. This then starts to build up a makeshift buzz saw effect. Rihiku is known to shunpo into this attack as well as enter Focus Fang in the middle of his rotation making this a tricky move to predict.

2 Swords:

Omen Fang: Rihiku takes the swords and holds them out to his side quickly before swinging them forwards in a scizzor-like attack. A direct hit can even cut people in half unless they block.

Wings of Truth: Rihiku tends to perform this in the air but can do it on the ground. He holds the swords out and pretty much spins like a spinning top for a whole 360 degree motion. He will do this horizontally on ground level and tends to do it vertically onto enemies below him when in the air.

Foretold Omen Fang: This is exactly the same as Omen fang with a single difference. Rihiku swings from a distance but lets go of the swords so they zoom towards the target and perform the scizzor slice at a range.

Frost Blade Ring: Rihiku takes both swords and stabs the ground with them. This causes 4 swords to shunt out of the floor to his left and 4 to his right. This move tends to get him out of surrounded situations.

3 Swords:

Crusader: Rihiku goes to hit a target by swinging with both swords in his hands and grabbing his thirds sword with his right arm to make 3 strikes. This is all done rapidly at a blinding speed, creating 9 blue streaked slashes in front of him that can hit numerous targets. These occur over 2 seconds and don't cover every inch in front of him. Only to make it seem as though he just struck 9 times. In reality, he moves so fast he did.

Single Phantom Dive: Rihiku leaps into the air creating blue trails from his three swords. he holds them temporarily in between his fingers on his right hand. He then comes down onto his target and swings down. This move is very predictable, but very nasty as 3 swords had struck each creating temporary swords.

Uprising: Rihiku temporarily holds the swords in between his fingers again but this time, he swings upwards to smash his opponent into the air. This can be streamed right into Phantom dive.

Triple Force Fang: Rihiku takes his swords and swings them all forwards one after the other but this time instead of throwing them straight they spin vertically like tomahawks. The end result is the same as Focus Fang but theres three this time.

4 Swords:

Dragon Slayer Lance: Rihiku spins on the spot for a 360 degree motion without attacking. As he does so, he holds the swords together point to handle and freezes them together. this creates 4 swords in a pole-like shape. He calls this his Dragon Lance with a big range. Its resilient thanks to Absolute zero.

Thunder Rush: Rihiku leaps forwards without engaging shunpo. Whilst doing this he spins all four swords through his fingers creating a rotatory effect. He holds the blades in front of him and slams into his target, cutting them as he hits and engaging Temporary blades.

Rising Thunder Rush: Rihiku applies shunpo this time to Thunder Rush but only to perform the attack into the air. This can set him up nicely into other attacks he performs. Rihiku spins the blades in his right hand and leaps into the air from underneath his opponent. This would send his target skyward only a few feet above himself.

Descending Thunder Rush: Rihiku needs to be in the air to do this. Rihiku comes down with his left hand spinning two swords like a rotatory blade onto a target. Combining Rising into Descending, Rihiku can knock targets up and slam them back down without too much effort. This can still be blocked though.

5 Sword:

Focus Spray: Rihiku throws all five swords without spinning this time. The speed he launches them are slower but he can aim them properly.

Overlord Strike: Rihiku leaps towards his target and rotates in the air. He then swings with 4 swords and and drops them to the ground to grab the fifth and strike. Technically, he enters 1 sword state with this attack.

Ring of Frost: Rihiku takes all five swords and stabs them into the dirt beneath him causing 20 swords to burst from the impact point.

Entrapment: Rihiku leaps over his target and throws all the swords into the ground around his target. This traps them within a ring of frost.

6 Swords:

Dragons Rush: Rihiku spins the swords around his fingers as he dashes forwards, thrusting his right arm forwards first followed by his left for extra length.

Cerberus: Rihiku holds his arms out with the swords firmly gripped and leaps towards his target sideways. He then spins to create a buzz saw motion with his entire body and when he is near the floor, stomps down and spins his torso back into standing position before slamming the target with all the swords.

Raging Beast: Rihiku performs Cerberus but upwards where he doesn't spin on his side but perfectly up. he uses the swing momentum to propel himself into the air, taking his targets with him if their struck.

Rampaging Beast: Rihiku starts to run towards his target, already swinging or merely holding his swords out. When close, he begins to violently slash left to right and right to left with both hands meeting at the middle whilst running. He will keep going until he decides he is too tired as this can exhaust him quickly. Its been known for him to start this without swinging then shunpo close to attack.

Bankai Description:
Rihikus Bankai follows his brothers stage of change. His body becomes coated in ice, but instead of merely his arms and back, Rihiku's entire being is coated in a layer of ice. This moulds itself to look just like a dragon sculpture made of ice that is capable of moving as normal and adds an extra 4 ft to Rihikus overall stature. He appears much more muscular and heavy and his sudden drop in speed surely matches exactly that. He cannot keep his feet on solid ground meaning he cannot move fast in his Bankai which is why he prefers never to use it. However, the fire-power gained from his dragon form is massive. His head is hidden beneath a large dragon head with several spikes to imitate his hair and even blue flames as eyes. Rihiku see's through these eyes rather than his normal set. Every movement he makes inside the dragon body is imitated out of the dragon. It is also wise to comment on the 5ft long tail and 8ft wide wings, also made of solid ice.

On his wrists however are, you guessed it, 3 swords. Each wrist has 3 swords mounted into what appear to be very thin and small cannons. He can hold his arm towards a target and fire these swords and regenerate them rapidly for an affective machine gun motion. His hands are simply claws of a dragon incapable of weilding a sword any more yet still violent slashing threats nevertheless.

Bankai Abilities:

Absolute Zero: Due to this ability, Rihiku can turn into this form and never melt. However this doesn't mean he can't be smashed. Cutting the ice isn't that effective but taking explosions will remove chunks of his overall stature in dragon form. Be quick though as he will regenerate the ice rapidly in the way Arrancar would regenerate flesh. Also any attacks that create ice will also be under Absolute Zero effects as normal.

High Pressure Blizzard Beam: Rihiku charges fire into his mouth, blue in color. He then spits the flames out at a massive speed to create a thick cero-like beam of energy that is covered in frost-like auras. Upon hit, the beam creates a wall about 5ft high of ice in the shape of his temporary swords. He can't spit this for anymore than 3 seconds before it takes its toll on his body. Taking breaks is wise.

Blizzard Crash: Rihiku stomps down hard. This causes Temporary swords to shoot from underneath him and outwards to create a ring of ice where he is standing. This is very handy for close combat as he can quickly remove targets near his body.

Blizzard Rain: Flapping his wings, Rihiku propels himself backwards but also shoots off a random number of ice shards that scatter before him and stabbing into things like blades. This are not temporary blades however.

Flash of Ruin: Rihiku holds out his right or left hand and summons a large lance made perfectly of ice in a trident shape and swings it harshly in a single blow. This creates temporary swords on striking the scenery even through a target but at the end of his swing, shatters as he cannot control the weapons strength.

Gatling Blade: As mentioned before, Rihiku has two mounted blade launchers on his wrists. These fire swords at around 4ft long made of ice as his shikai would appear. On impact they do exactly the same as shikai and spawn more temporary swords but only on surfaces. Rihiku can effectively stream these shots as it takes 5 seconds to regenerate a sword into its socket again yet he has 6, meaning he can fire one a second giving him a stream of swords to fire.

Ice regeneration: Rihiku has to pretty much shoot himself for this to work. he takes ice from a temporary sword and uses it to cover up a break in his armour. If he isn't hit in the same place for 3 posts, the armour freezes over anyway.

Deathly Bellow: Rihiku is pretty much a dragon now. He is capable of roaring but this merely threatens his prey. By taking a few seconds to prepare, Rihiku can let out a roar so loud and terrifying it knocks targets back that are not around his weight. Light targets will fall back further and weak targets can even be deafened and blinded at once by his bellow.
