Siku's Zanpakutō

Zanpakutō & Shikai


- Zanpakutô Spirit Name: Shukkō Shutsugen

- Zanpakutô Spirit Appearance: Shutsugen

- Inner World: A dark dojo, seeming to be night time. This dojo is colored with black wood for the frame of the structure, and white paper to seal away the view of the inside from outside. There is front room with a sliding door that enters into a garden of plane grass and randomly assorted plant life from nature. It gave off the idea that this land was left untouched, unattended. It was let to do as it pleased, nature at it's finest.

There is a path between a heavily forested area that leads to an opening where one or more parties could sit under the unhindered rays of the moonlight. This path has not yet been traveled by Siku, nor Shutsugen. It is unsure where the path leads too, but it has always instilled a mysterious, eerie vibe into Siku. Harsh gales of wind has lashed out at him from this direction, even further evidence to warrant his uncomfortable nature around it.

- Sealed Zanpakutô Apperance : Siku's Zanpakutō

- Sealed Zanpakutô Abilities:

name: Rei Renraku [Ghost Touch]
Length of use: Passive
range: Melee
description: When Siku lands a hit on an opponent with his sealed Zanpakutō, the general area of where it was hit is deprived of all the energy used to heat the flesh and blood, the Zanpakutō of Siku's drawing out all the energy being used to heat the specific/limb area, and inserting it's passive Reiatsu to be used as energy to "heat" the body, though it's such a low temperature and gets colder if he strikes the same place more than once. This can only be healed in a variety of ways, as it has technically hit a temperature where it is already dead flesh. For greater effects on the area hit, another strike must be made on the same area to add up the strike counters. This is similar to how people say they feel cold when a ghost is very close to them, they say they feel the heat leaving their body. Here is a chart:

1 Strike: Light blue skin coloring, lightly frozen. Can crack if hit directly/indirectly
2 Strikes: Medium blue skin coloring, frozen. Can crack and lightly crumble off if hit directly/indirectly
3 strikes: Dark blue skin coloring, completely frozen. Can crack/shatter and crumble away if hit directly/indirectly.
4 strikes: Black/Darkest Blue skin coloring, completely frozen off/dead. Can easily crumble away, turn into dust or small particles, from simple/weak movements and direct/indirect hits. This is now dead flesh.

Notice: For each rank higher, add 1 strike on for similar results. For each lower rank, the amount of strikes needed is lowered by 1. Anyone 2 ranks or higher than Siku is not effected by this.

name: Yūrei Renraku 幽霊 連絡[Ghost Contact]
type: Passive
range: Melee
description: When Siku lands a hit on an opponent with his Shikai's Zanpakutō, the general area of where it was hit is deprived of all the energy used to heat the flesh and blood. The Zanpaktou of Siku's is drawing out all the energy being used to heat the specific/limb area, and inserting it's passive Reiatsu to be used as energy to "heat" the body, albeit the temperature is considered to be freezing. This freezing-like action can only be healed in a number of ways, since the damage is caused by their own lack of body heat, not a cut or wound. For greater effects on the area hit, another strike must be made on the same area to add up the strike counters. This technique's concept is similar to how people say they feel cold when a ghost is very close to them, they say they feel the heat leaving their body. While making contact with any part of Siku's Zanpakutō, this can cause anyone other than Siku to experience the effects of this technique as it works by draining upon contact. This can also work by keeping the Shikai sword embedded in something and constantly draining it's heat, holding it in for a single post counting as all 3 strike counters.

(1.) When an opponent's torso is effected by the equivalent of 2 strikes, stacked or not, they begin to shiver and enter hypothermia, needing to warm themselves up if they wish to resume without consequence.


(2.) To stack this technique, the second hit and so on would need to be within 4 inches of the original strike, however it spreads through the specific limb or extremity it touched. If the hand is touched, then the hand is what will freeze, stopping at the wrist, the forearm stopping at the elbow if it were to freeze, and so on. However the torso is the only exception, the front freezing if hit in the front, and the back if struck there.


Here is a chart:

1 Strike: Medium blue skin coloring, the skin layer is frozen solid, and the first inch of flesh is beginning to freeze over just as the skin. Skin layer can shatter is hit directly/indirectly.

2 Strikes: Dark blue skin coloring, completely frozen. Improving greater than the last upon each strike, three inches into the flesh is now freezing over into a blue hue. Can shatter, crack, and crumble if hit directly/indirectly.

3 Strikes: Black skin coloring, completely frozen off and dead to the bone. Can easily crumble away, turn into dust or small particles, from simple/weak movements ad direct/indirect hits. This is now dead flesh.

Notice: For each rank higher, add 1 strike on for similar results. For each lower rank, the amount of strikes needed is lowered by 1. Anyone 2 ranks or higher than Siku is not effected by this.






name: Azamuku Shutsugen 出現 を欺く [Deceiving Apparition]
type: Offensive
range: 30 yards
description: Apparition(s) can be made that look exactly like Siku's Zanpakutō in it's Shikai, which acts through Siku's mental command(s). These apparition(s) cost a level 20 each. The apparition(s) can move at Bala speeds. The apparition(s) can NOT physically hurt anything, but when the ghostly sword phases through the opponent, the Shikai ability "Rei Renraku" applies to the apparition's strike. If hit by an opponent's attack, the apparition is destroyed immediately regardless of rank. These apparitions give off a faint trace of Siku's Reiatsu signature and strength, making them feel as powerful as Siku's current rank. Up to 20 can be summoned at once. For every apparition summoned, after 2 posts of life needs a maintenance cost of a level 5 for an extra 2 posts. Also the maintenance cost can be disregarded at will, and they reduce to nothing, killing themselves off instantly.





name: Yūrei Jikō 幽霊 事項 [Ghostly Matter]
type: Transformation
range: Self
description: Siku is able to pay a level 20 Kidō cost to activate this technique, making it last two posts. A maintenance cost can be applied for a level 10 each post after it should have expired. His Shikai sword is now in it's ghost form, similar to the sword used as the apparition from Siku's Shikai technique "Azamuku Shutsugen". However this are unable to be destroyed, simply phasing through everything, even other Zanpakutō. This adds on an extra strike counter each time his weapon phases through the opponent's body even slightly. The blade is NOT able to be used as a physical weapon [however is still wielded in Siku's hand like one], and doesn't cut or actually hit the opponent when it phases through them. Using this can be risky against a dominant melee fighter.


I think I had it in the wrong place before, so I posted it here. If this is the wrong place, will you please tell me where to go?

I didn't notice anything saying specifically where to submit my Shikai, and I don't know if it's considered Equipment, or a Technique.
