Xander Crow [APPROVED, 2-3]

[/center]



Name: Alexander Crow - Xander
Titles: Former Juggernaut of the Crow Clan
Gender: Male
Appearance Age: 20
Age: 324
Affiliation/Rank: The Crow Clan

Appearance Description: The first thing many may notice is the scar across his left eye, though a bit worse then his uncles. It's hard to believe that the young man has had such a time of it. He wears a dark green kimono on his form. Not really going with the standard uniform for anyone. He just doesn't agree with dressing to fit someone else's likes, this is what he is comfortable in. On his waist the most noticeable thing other then the green waist band worn around his abs. Is the three swords, his Zanpakutō's sealed state has three of them. These blades fit into his sword style which in it's own right is mad. However going on, his eyes are a light bluish gray. Giving them a strange color. He is in extremely good shape, his body is built and toned. Making him appear to be extremely strong, this appearance isn't a lie. He has a habit of putting on the headband around his arm and taking the top of his kimono off when fighting a strong enemy. It's more for comfort, perhaps simply a habit of his. When serious he'll wear the black bandanna on his head. It's a habit of his from his younger years.

Personality: While being an extremely strange man among the ranks of the Crow Family. One of the few that has gotten both the Rank of Juggernaut and Supernova, he is considered to be an extremely honest and brash man. Though having a kind heart he doesn't look at things the same way as other people. For example, if someone told him to be a hero he would say this. "Hero's have to share there sake, I want all of the sake." Seeming to completely miss the ideal, however to say he is weak would be a completely misjudgment of his character. Some believe he's just an outlaw without a real cause, even among his family he is known as the outcast among the Crows. This is more or less due to his utter failure at the Tengu style the family is so proud of. However he is an exceptional swordsman, even his Uncle Jaeden has given him praise on his skills. His father having passed away after a battle with his sickness. Xander was named the head of the Supernova's for his skills and well overall people talents.

Likes: Sake, Pretty Women, Fighting, Working Out, and Naps

Dislikes: Liars, Dishonorable People, Perverts, and Cowards.

History: Xander is the child of Alexander Crow, one of the finest swordsman that have ever been, his father suffered from a sickness that would claim him. Xander's birth was unknown, but due to a problem he's had since he was young. He wouldn't be able to master the Tengu Style, making him not important to the family. His Uncle Jaeden disagreed with this. He'd been watching the boy during the end of the war, claiming that his style of swordsmanship was something to be careful of. Xander was born to a modest village, where most people didn't have enough to eat. He was often left alone as a child, to his own devices. This was largely due to the fact he just scared people, he was a born warrior since a child. During a trip here his father, adoptive really. But Xander had no parents to speak of, so being adopted into this clan suited him fine. He was trained and taught by his dad, whom was proud of his son. Despite not being able to use the clan's legendary style, he was able to use something far greater. He wielded three swords at once making him a dangerous enemy. He was named the clan's Juggernaut, which to explain in a better term. Meant he was to patrol and fight wars, though now that the Supernova's have begun to form things are different. In the time he was a Juggernaut, Xander was sent out to fight 1000 hollows by himself. He did kill them all, but Xander's fighting prowess is above average.

These were the tasks that Juggernauts of old used to attend, they were considered monsters really. Xander's education happened outside of the Shino Academy, the Crow clan would often teach their young on their own. Having many skilled Shinigami in the ranks. Xander was elected to lead the Supernovas and guide the clan. This choice was made by the Clan head Jaeden Crow, however this happening was something that just couldn't be ignored. Jaeden had claimed he had little time left, among the clan meetings. These matters were darkening, Jaeden had decided to leave things to Xander. In Xander's mind the old bastard was just leaving all his troubles to him. During his time as a Supernova, Xander had put down entire violent acts. Even sometimes wars that had come to pass in that place. The Gotei 13 wasn't always available to come fix things as Jaeden put it. So it would be good to have someone to fix it. Xander's life has been a fairly short one, he's trained against his uncle and father for years and simply fought battles. The scars on his body are from family, his father during the training session. They could of been healed, but his father told him to remember this pain.

Single Sword Style: While using a single blade, he's able to use blasts of the air itself it seems. Creating high blasts of air, using this he can create slashes of slicing air waves. These waves come from bringing his sword down with such power that it slices through the air, creating a wind blade that slices clear through anything in it's path. This move is the only one used by him using a single sword, the only long range move he has. For example, should this cut meet a large force, it will slice straight through the flesh and continue going, till it meets something that physical just can't be cut. This move has been used to slice through a mountain. However he does use a very strong swing for this, not really able to do it to often. This is a once per thread trick of his, putting all his muscle behind a single swing.

Single Sword Hitan Ryuugi: This move is an extremely fast counter attack, while waiting the user moves at a blinding speed slicing the creature either with a vertical cut or horizontal one that halves them. The speed of the user goes up by one during this move, however this move may not be used to often, once every other post. Allowing the user's swordsmanship to bring an almost instant injury to the enemy that may not be an easy fix.


_________________________________

Duel Sword Style: This form is different from one, he gets a bit more serious. Being able to spawn larger blasts of air now, the shredding that these blasts can cause are rather impressive. He's cut someone to pieces once with one, however that was a weak enemy. Most strong ones just walk away with a max of four cuts. These cuts aren't extremely deep, but they aren't extremely shallow either. The wound will bleed and hurt, this is the best way to describe it. He's able to use it with both blades. This is a style used when he thinks it's time to start getting serious, or at the very least a bit more so then he was originally. Xander's use of his three swords lead to a build of his ultimate style. These forms are weaker for him, but he is a very gifted swordsman. He may still perform the Single sword art within this and the last stance, sending out slicing air cuts. Not to mention now he uses the blasts of air waves that if one hits one they will be cut in several places.

Duel Sword Mugen Hitan: This move isn't used for countering, however what it does do. Is rather dangerous, the user creates a black tempest wind that is swirling in an extremely fast circle, with a strike. This wind is a physical manifestation of the power that Xander has. Anything that touches this will be instantly sliced, how deep and bad will depend on several things. If for example it would be like sticking a body part into a blender, so those who run into it. Would be in fairly bad shape obviously. If one is sucked in, they will be cut from head to toe till they get out or die. It is entirely possible to run away from it, because this is a smaller one. About the size of a regular human, this is the weaker version of Mugen Hitan. It's strongest form is used with three swords.

_________________________________

Three Sword Style: This took Xander many years to reach, he can use his mouth as a holder for a sword. He has such a strength in his jaw that's it's practically unheard of even by most of the strange people. The act of putting the sword in his mouth and taking his bandanna from his arm and putting it on. While he also removes the kimono top will normally signal that a real fight will be happening soon. Both arms swings are equal in power, the one in his mouth has the same power as his arms for those who get to close and end up dead. In this form of fighting, he can use all of his previous skills plus more. Kinetic force is something that he can use when going all out alone, this allows him to build up a greater pressure behind the blade in his mouth, so when swung it deals damage equal to that of a regular sword. For example, let's say two men swing blades. Both arms are equal in strength, this kinetic boost let's his jaw and neck's swing be equal to that of an arms.

Three Sword Style Mugan Hitan: From here he's able to create a far larger version of the tornado from his two sword style. This one is large enough to be considered a true tornado, those who do get caught in it will get far worse injuries then merely sticking hand in a blender. Getting hit will be no different from getting caught by a sword across the chest. For a better example, imagine if you will a large tornado. Those who are struck by the air current will be sliced as though a sword met their flesh, the wounds will depend on location and depth. For example if someone backed up, just enoguh the injury may be lower then what it would of been. This is only once a thread.

Three Sword Style Mugan Nokami: This is a counter attack of his using his thread swords, he spins so fast that people who are close get cut by the tornado forming around him. He's spinning at a speed that he's already used to, so he doesn't get dizzy. However to consider it an easy to block move would be a mistake, because he can move around while doing this. And can still tell where he is going for the most part, he uses other senses outside sight to do this often.

Reiatsu Color: Blue

Zanpakutô Spirit Name: Yamagiri

Zanpakutô Spirit Appearance: It takes the form of a black wolf, with crimson eyes. The creature doesn't appear to be of normal appearance though either. As though this isn't really it's true form, his Zanpakutō spirit will often take other forms to show itself off. However due to it's powers it changes forms sometimes, not around Xander though. It prefers to keep the form of the Black Wolf with glowing crimson eyes.

Inner World: His Inner World is strangely enough a Beach, the Ocean crashes upon the shore viciously most of the time, his Zanpakutō Spirit comes from the water or ground to mess with him.

Sealed Zanpakutô Apperance :

Sealed Zanpakutô Abilities: The power his Zanpakutō gives him, allows him immunity from outer dilutions that come from it. Consider this, say if a poison were to effect his reiatsu or something like that to cause him problems through his body. His zanapkuto guards him from this outcome, however it doesn't protect him from physical damages. For example, no protect for sword blows, gunshots, so on. However things that effect his spiritual pressure are negated

Release: Arm Yamagiri

Shikai Description: No changes really come from his swords, it appears as though nothing has happened. However that isn't the truth, upon this something very dangeorus has happened. Though in Shikai he may only do one at a time, he is now able to switch the weapons of his swords. However no changes happen to his swords, it's just the effects that come from his swing change.

Shikai Abilities:

Gun: Gun comes in handy, when swinging his sword downwards. A giant blast of energy is fired at an enemy, similar to the Getsuga Tensho, it has no real name. This power during Shikai may only be sent to one sword at a time, however it may be switched between them. In Shikai only one blade may have a set effect per time, no stacking of the effects happens till later on within his bankai. Those struck by the beam will be similar to those hit by the Getsuga Tensho. The size of which can change depending on his need, he can fire ones big enough to cover a town. Or ones small enough to just cover a person. The size depends on his amount of effort put into the attack.

Knife: The sword becomes light as a knife, making it easier to wield and bring down at far faster rates on an enemy. This makes the weapon far more dangerous then people would guess at times. The speed of the weapon is faster then original and normally possible, the length of the weapon remains. Creating a the illusion that the weapon or arm is pry stronger then the other arm .

Sword: In this form, the impact from the sword coming down is enhanced. Making those stuck in this form hit harder then originally. Making those who take blows by this absorb greater hits during the blows coming down upon them. Using this is the easiest due to the fact nothing really changes. It will like a a heavier weapon has struck something, when sword is in use. Creating a heavier attack without the effort required for it.




Bankai Description:The Bankai again shows no signs of great change that can be seen from their sealed state, everything is more of a within effect. Thing's don't show a great deal of change for the people to notice. His sword's only real give away is the fact that his clothing has turned completely black, despite often not wearing any when he gets into this mode.

Bankai Abilities: He is able to combine the previous powers into multiple weapons, though the limit is two per sword. Making combinations depends on his use of the skill, making the power more dangerous then most would expect. His bankai isn't truly that impressive to many, it seems rather pointless and some have claimed that it cannot be a bankai due to the lack of changes that have been made to his weapons. His previous shikai attacks if are doubled in strength and can cause massive amounts of damage. This power can grow further at some point, however at the emoment as stated before. Each weapon may have two, gun, knife, or sword activated on it. For example, if Gun and Sword are put together. The blast from Gun is enhanced and far larger then normal. Sword and Knife, will bring down a fast heavy attack that may end up breaking the person.
