Kagetora WIP

Basics

Name: Kagetora
True Age: ~500 Years
Gender: MANRY MAN
Personality: Kagetora is a man of extremes. He always follows his own code of honor, right and wrong, and in general, is maybe one of the most strong-willed - and also, thick-headed - persons out there. If he sets his mind on something, he will achieve it, or die trying. As a fighter, he is known to be like a wall - a wall that can take punishment and dish it out with fists that shatter rocks. He is not one for fancy tactics, or quick and skilled movements.
As a friend, Kagetora can listen to you, or cheer your up with kind and somehow rough words. Most of the time, you can head him justify his own actions by saying that they are 'manly' - be it to help someone in danger, or to eat a pizza the size of a building. At first, his attitude and constant talking about what is manly and what not may seem a bit crazy and hard to deal with, but under that thick skull is a caring soul with a desire to protect everything he holds dear, no matter the cost.
The fighter is known as someone who is able to eat for ten people, and still be hungry. It is unkown how that is even possible, and it's called one of the ten mysteries of Kagetora by some. One of the others is the question of how many scars he actually has, by the way.
One strange thing is that around women, Kagetora often seems not to know how to act. He can't really tell them to be 'manly' - most of the times - and this alone makes interaction hard for him. And if a female person is actually someone weak who needs permanent protection, he will rarely treat them as more than a kid.
Obviously, he never turns down a challenge made by anyone, no matter their skill, but will usually use strength in accordance to his opponent to make for a fun match and competition. It's different for

General Appearance

Appearance: Kagetora is a mountain of a human. Standing at whooping 7'2", he is a tall, wide man, defined by well trained muscles. However, he doesn't have 'body-builder' muscles that make walking around impossible - he has the body of a fighter, so besides having scars on every part of his body, his muscles are trained to the point where they are the strongest possible without making him sluggish.
Besides the usual, friendly smirk and determined stare, depending on the situation, Kagetoras face is ruled by the large scar on his forehead, where a dagger once nearly penetrated his skull. Apart from that, Kagetora is rarely seen without his dark shades on, but under them, he has clear blue eyes, like a bright morning sky.
All in all, coupled with his simple yet not cheap looking clothing, makes one thing pop into the head of the most people:
Manly.
Animalistic Traits: He has bestial fangs and claws, although he makes sure to cut the latter down to human fingernail-length. Which requires industrial-grade cutting equipment.
Appearance Age: Mid twenties.
Height: 7'2"
Weight: Above Average

Natural Abilities

Techinques:
Crazy Endurance
He just doesn't die. His natural body regenerates wounds at an astounding rate outside of battle, when it can focus completely on it, and his skin, bone and Reiatsu together form a natural armor as hard as tempered steel. Normal metal weapons and Zanpakutō have a hard time damaging more than Kagetoras skin nowadays.
Besides that, he is said to be able to run for 2 weeks straight, without sleep, water or food, before becoming too tired and thirsty to continue. He did this once to catch a running Hollow, and cought it on the last day of the 2 weeks, before killing it.

Strength Powerhouse
Kagetoras strength is increased massively by his Guardian Beast half. A punch with all the body weight, strength and willpower of Kagetora can break titanium into pieces, at least that is what people tell. As for lifting powers, Kagetora once catched a crashing giant aircraft and thus saved it from exploding with his bare hands, so it is considered to be immense, too.

Never-Ending Will
Not that one would doubt it, but Kagetora will never break into submission. No amount of torture, enemies or fights will ever wear down his will, even more, his will can extend to friends, and inspire them, which can in turn inspire others - those can't give the power further, though, and it is weakened.
This power makes it possible even for someone seriously or mortally injured to keep fighting, which makes it both a blessing and a curse. As long as your will doesn't weaver because you don't want to fight, you won't believe in your loss, either.

I Am Your Boss!
How exactly this works is one of the ten mysteries of Kagetora, but he has the ability to pilot or drive absolutely everything - from bikes and cars, to starships, further to speed boats, or even giant battlesuits. For Kagetora, they are just as easy to use as it is to ride a bicycle.


Magic: None. No spell is manly enough for his presence.

Sacred Weapon: Kagetora's Sacred takes on a really weird form... his sunglasses are, in fact, his Sacred.

Other Weapons: If GAR could be weaponized, he'd be a walking nuke. Sadly, it can't.

Guardian Beast

Origin: Tiger

Beast Joushou

[b]Joushou Appearance: Kagetora's first release is rather easy - he takes off his sunglasses, which hold back his Joushou powers behind them, and puts them in his pocket. This skyrockets his body instantly into full Joushou. Knocking his glasses away does this as well.
Joushou: Activating this unleashes the full strength of Kagetora's body, enhacing the strength he already has as described above by double. Also, his hands can now easily adapt into his own fighting style - the claw of the tiger, in which sweeping and ripping movements with wide swings together with holding the hands as if they had claws are used. Thanks to his physical prowess, these rending attacks can rip through flesh as easily as an actual weapon would, if not even better.

• Manly Beam
  An energy blast with the strength of a Cero, that is usually fired from the closed fist of Kagetora. It shines in a bright orange color, and causes explosions once it hits something, be it another attack, a solid object or the enemy. The explosions can't hurt Kagetora himself. Kagetora can fire these in rapid shots if he has to, but that can quickly tire him out, especially if he is not in his higher forms.
  
• Manly Blast
  Erupts a load of Reiatsu around him, pushing back and damaging all in the path, causing a small crater to appear, and Kagetora to hover in the air for a second. This skill is good to get himself out of crowds, or to deflect attacks, as it can weaken or even destroy weaker attacking methods like Balla or small Quincy Arrows.
  This is always released when Kagetora changes into his Zenou form. It is known to sometimes rip apart worn shirts and jackets and reveal the naked upper body.
  
• Manly Weapons
  A true man doesn't care WHAT he uses to fight, it only matters THAT he uses something to fight. Kagetora can use nearly anything as some kind of weapon - a full bottle of booze, a bar table, a car, a pole, an actual sword, you name it and he can use it, thanks to his commanding aura.
  
• Ground Is Where I Want It
  Basicially, this is Kagetoras version of the ability to stand on your own reishi. However, he can't use flash steps or anything of the sorts. Since he, of course, also has a lot of strength in his legs, he can do quite the fast sprints and burst himself with jumps through the environment, giving the illusion he can use an average flash step. Still, his speed can't be compared to real fast fighters.
  
• Manly Shots
  Whenever Kagetora needs many attacks at range and doesn't want to waste large amounts of energy by using his Manly Beam, he releases these small, fast energy bullets from his fists. They cause small explosions, which again can't harm Kagetora himself.

Beast Zenou

Zenou Appearance: Kagetora forms new sunglasses on his face.
these glasses of pure manmode radiate with the power of manhood and badassery, thus staying on the face of the wearer under any conditions.
Zenou Abilities:

Beast Kyuu Kyou

Kyuu Kyou Appearance:
Kyuu Kyou Abilities: The final stage of a Sugiura's power. This is 100% of their power, and their soul. Their abilities are increased substantially, and most of the time Kyuu Kyou is forbidden to be released. Few have mastered it, for it is so taxing to release it. It is manifested as the true form of one's soul.
