Finaly made after my first idea was rejected :P This is an idea that I came up with a while ago and finaly put down. If you get the names of the Zanpakutō, then congratulations, you know your Japanese mythology. Edit: Ugh, my spelling is horrendous. I'll fix that when I am not half asleep. [hider=The Captain of Squad 8] Name: Araris [hider=Appearance] [img]http://images6.fanpop.com/image/forum/213000/213242_1407467219880_full.png [/img] [/hider] Age: True age unknown, looks 20ish Gender: Male Height: 6' 9" Weight: 98kg Hair Color: silver and brown Eye Colour: one red, one green Birthday: Unknown. Clan/Family: None Race: Vizard [hider=Mask] [img]http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/f28adb41c33fb212d5c7089553d7325c/http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk250/itachi8694/Tortured_Mind_by_cheeseboy18193.jpg[/img] [/hider] Profession: Shinigami. Also runs a small pub. Rank: Captain Power Level: Captain Spiritual Energy Colour: Silver Personality: Araris acts upbeat and is quick to laugh. It seems like nothing fazes him. He is laid back person yet is hard working when he wants to be. He also has no respect for authority and does what ever he thinks needs to be done and damn the consequences. He has a smart mouth, usually gleefully employed on an opponant when he is fighting. He has a good sense of humor, and likes to make people laugh. He can be more than a little arrogant and stubborn, he defiantly doesn't take orders very well. He is a thrill-seeker and has a lust for adventure that is without equal. He loves to live life on the edge, which can result in him diving head-first into ridiculously dangerous situations without a second thought and a smile on his face. His loyalty is unquestionable, if you are able to win it. He shows little to no interest in finding out about his past, perfering to live in the present. He has a fondness for alcohol and a near-disturbingly high tolerance for it. He also loves to eat, and loves trying new cuisine whenever he can. History: 50 years ago, he awoke, swords in hand, in a clearing filled with the signs of battle and covered in blood. He had no memory of who he was or how he got there. He lived as a wanderer for awhile, trying to find his past. But he met a man who changed his life. That man was the capatain of squad 8. They became fast freinds, and he became a mentor to Araris. After witnessing his power and seeing his potential, the captain convinced Araris to join squad eight. He did so, and he distinguished himself quickly as a fighter and a tactition and he rose through the ranks quickly. He became captain by the unusual means of Trial by Combat, in which he challanged the Captain to a dual. After several long and difficult battles, he prevailed by a hair. The now formor captain congratulated Araris and decided to retire, claiming he was getting too old. They parted as friends. Araris currently has opened a small pub that is run by him and his squad. They serve their own brewed sake. Relationships/Friendships/Rivalries/Siblings: Formor captain of squad 8, sees him as a mentor and friend. Shows no respect to head captain, nicknamed her Granny Hentai, not to her face, (hentai=pervert=dirty=dirt=earth) or Rocky, when he is in a good mood, Grandma Mura in more formal settings. Other: A solid gold pocketwatch with some strange symble on it. A tassle of random pieces of mask from various hollows he has killed. (Hangs off his swords.) He is very 'moderised' and keeps up with the real world, making trips there occasionally. He plays a guitar of all things. Seen as somewhat eccentric. Byakua Kenpachi ~Zanpakuto~ Zanpakuto name: Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi Type: At first glace, it appears to be a kido type, but it is actually a zanjutsu type. Dual blades Zanpakuto Shikai Release command: Dawn falls to night and night rises to dawn, as the seasons change and tides flow. The queen sits on her firy throne, watching the king and her child dance. Shine, Sol and Luna! Zanpakuto Bankai Release command: Awaken! Aether!

Always up for a fight and loves combat. Likes: hot sunny weather Dislikes: Tsukuyomi [/hider] Tsukuyomi: [hider=Beast] [img]http://cdn8.staztic.com/app/a/381/381357/moon-dragon-black-250-0-s-307x512.jpg[/img] [/hider] [hider=Human] [img]http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/240/6/1/moon_knight_by_spaceweaver-d2xhqwv.jpg[/img] Personality: Cool, calm and rational. Perfers to think then act. Laid back and lazy. Pacifist. Likes: Cool, peacful winter nights Dislikes: Amateratsu [/hider] Inner world: [hider=My Hider] [img]http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2014/158/9/b/red_moon_by_izumift-d7lfuol.jpg[/img] The actual setting changes, usualy a place pulled from his memory, but always has a massive red moon that casts a red tint on everything. [/hider] Sealed appearance: Both are Nodachi he wears them crossed on his back. One has a golden sun-emblem guard, in a similarly decorated sheath, the other has a silver full moon guard and a similarly decorated sheath. His swords have a little power in sealed form, his sunblade radiats heat and burns what it cuts. The moonblade radiats cold and freezes what it cuts. Shikai appearance: His appearance and power changes depending on which sword his his holding. His sunblade gives him a duster made of fire that has a high resistance to kido (and similar) attacks. His moonspear gives him an archaic icy armor that has a high resistance to physical attacks. If he is holding both, his power is actualy a little sub-par for a shikai release becuse the hot and cold cancel a little of each other's power. He wears the ice armor on the side with his spear and the fire duster on the side with his sword. He can weild one at a time. This gives him almost normal bankai level of power, exept he cannot stay like that for long, if he holds sol, he gets a high-grade fever and will eventualy faint. If he holds luna he gets frostbite and eventualy looses consciousness.

Also each one freezes/burns what ever it touches. 1. He can pull heat or send heat into his surroundings, strengthening that respective element. (Send heat= cold, ice power up) 2. Mirage: By using the heat and cold he can create simple mirages. 3. Solar flare: A massive red circle appears on the ground and erupts into a collum of flame. Lasts 2 posts Cool down: 4 4. Ice Make: He can make and manipulate objects made out of ice. (Lasts: 3 posts. Cooldown: 3 posts) 5. Firefly: a bunch of little Fireballs appear around him and he fires them, railgun style. On contact they burst into a small explosion. Lasts 2 posts Cooldown 4 6. Icefire: He crosses his weapons and sends out a wave of cold flame that acts like fire, but freezes instead of burning. (Lasts 1 post, more if the flame catches Cooldown: 5 posts.) 7. Flame Commandment: Only available with luna sealed and sol out. He lifts his blade, sumoning a massive fireball that he can send in any direction he wants, he can also manipulate its direction just a bit. It explodes on impact with anything, buring so hot that it scorches the air and can burn without having to touch the flames. (Duration: 1 post Cooldown[ahahaha]: 7 posts Ice age triggers cooldown.) 8. Ice age: only available with sol sealed and luna out. He sends a huge blast of cold in a cone that will freeze anything caught in it solid. The ice is extremely hard to melt. (Duration: 5 posts Cooldown: 9 posts Flame Commandment triggers cooldown. About his Bankai: His Bankai requires his spirts to work as one, (Which is incredibly hard, in fact he may be sometimes unable to use his bankai, due to his spirits being unable to get along.) eliminating the clash from his shikai. (hence the single sword) In this form, his heat and cold do not cancel each other, instead they exist together in a very unique way that defys nature. His sword still freezes and burns, however he can choose whitch effect. Bankai skills: (Captains and up can only have Bankai. Note: Some Lieutenants will be able to attain a Bankai) 1. Nova: He points his sword and triggers a mighty fireball that pulls objects inward with gravity. (Lasts 1 post Cooldown 4 posts.) 2. Subzero: A dangerous skill that plumits his body temperature, halting all pain and allowing him to bypass damaged body parts. If used, he can fight only to die of his injuries later. (Lasts 2~10 posts Cooldown: 1 day [recommended 2 days]) 3. Ice Fortress: Has two versions, one he summons a pane of thick ice that can take a few blows [Lasts 1~2 posts Cooldown 4 posts] Or two, He slams his sword point first into the ground snd summons a massive icy dome that has several layers that get thinker as they go inward. He can put this around an opponant too and replenish the domes one at a time. (Lasts until it is destroyed. Cooldown: The full skill 6 posts, subsequent domes, 1 post. 4. Hellfire: He creates an omni directonal heat wave that scorches anything around him. Has a short range. (Lasts 2 posts Cooldown: 5 posts) 5. Purify: This is actually kido, enhanced by his Zanpakutō, He heals himself of minor injures and any negative effects. (Lasts 1 post Cooldown: 8 posts) 6. ??? Non-lethal Zanpakuto Skills: Oddly enough, he always knows what time it is, no matter where he is, through his Zanpakuto, who can feel the position of the sun and moon in the real world. His ice can be used to preserve, like if a comrade goes down with a fatal injury, he can put them in ice that will keep them in stasis until he melts them. Also acts as a protection. His fire make him an exilant cook. (Though being used like that makes Amaterasu angry.) He can talk directly with his Zanpakutō without the need for meditation. Consequently, he can sometime be heard talking to them outloud.
