Karite Saiketsu (Done)

[Ogihci]

Name: Karite Saiketsu (Reaper collecting blood in japanese)
Age: 400 (Looks 40)
Gender: Male
Allegiance: Soul Society
Appearance:

Karite is tall and his skin is relatively tan in color. He stands at six feet tall. His hair is short and a little wavy. His hair color is white. His eyes are emotionless when outside of battle and when in battle they show extreme excitement. His eyes are red in color. The build of his body above average muscularity and he weighs two-hundred-fifty pounds. He looks to be fourty years old. He has a black five o'clock shadow across his face. Though he is physically strong he is also acrobatic usually balancing on the top of his zanpakuto.

He wears the standard shinigami uniform but it is full black and has a black hood seemingly sewn on to the back of it. There is also a picture of a reaper riding a skeleton horse stitched on to the back of it along with the words "Death of the four horseman." He wears his zanpakuto across his back. He seems to not have a sheath for it do to it being a scythe. He has a small chain around his neck with two wedding rings around it like a necklace.(He is very protective of this necklace and he will most likely give his life to protect it.)

Tattoos can be seen on his forearms. On his left forearm is a tattoo of a white rose. On his right forearm appears to be a tattoo of an angel with the words I will always remember you. He has two scars one on his left eyes going from the upper right down to the left. He also has a scar horizontally across his chest which is hidden by his shinigami outfit.

Personality:

Rude, lewd, vulgar, and half nihilistic, Karite is somewhat of an antihero. Due to his time in the maggots nest he has learned a great deal of patience and leadership. Patience due to the fact he was locked up for so long and leadership because people constantly gathered around him and made him leader which originally pissed him off but he learned to accept it. He often complains about how old he has gotten thinking of himself as an old man at times.

Though this side of him is not really seen by others but he is a philosophical man. He has his own out look on life. "Live life to the fullest doing what you love or drop dead trying." He has been known to give into any form of pleasure sex, drugs, and fighting. But of the three fighting ranks the highest to him. He is fond of fighting and has a tendency to pick fights for petty reasons. He is mostly a reckless person with little regard for his own safety. He does show concern and care for his close friends however that group is relatively small. He respects power depending on how someone uses it. Karite displays very high intelligence, in some ways giving him something of an evil genius persona though most see him as nothing but a barbarian. He generally appears heartless, though in reality he isn't. For all of his ruthless nature, he was still in love once. (Will be explained in history.)

He fights with ferocity and often extreme cruelty, rarely intending to kill until his target has been disabled and humiliated, while frequently allowing enemies more than one chance to kill him. Karite taunts and belittles his opponents, allowing them to inflict wounds before retaliating with devastating force. Karite expresses extreme disgust with the hollows he hunts, especially when they kill without purpose, though he seems hypocritical in that. But he does have his own reason for fighting and killing. He does it for the thrill and pleasure.

Highly unorthodox swordplay and a fighting style based on break dancing and taking bits and pieces from all forms of martial arts and making up the rest as he fights his opponents, makes him a force to be reckoned with. He has been known to be quite clever during fights using the area around him or using his scythes height as an advantage for him to get the upper hand during a fight. Shunpo he uses to catch up with enemy's who are being cowards in his opinion. He has been known to be bloodthirsty often spilling his own blood if his opponent is boring him. He handicaps his own fighting by starting out as low as he can go then working up as the battle progresses. Starting with hand-to-hand then moving on to his zanpakuto(But only using the shaft of it) in his right hand(he is left handed) then moving it to the right then using both hands then using the blade of it then moves on to shikai then bankai then his mask.

But he will only use his mask if no one else is around and before using it he will shed one tear and apologize to his lost love.(Will be explained in history.) He is a skilled martial artist and a practitioner of Jeet Kune Do.(Will be explained lower) He is extremely crafty often finding peoples weaknesses and exploiting it until they improve. In this way he could be considered a teacher of sorts, teaching his opponents to improve and guard there openings.

Jeet Kune Do (Chinese: 截拳道 Cantonese: Jitkyùndou lit. "Way of the Intercepting Fist," also "Jeet Kun Do","JKD," or "Jeet Kune Do"): A hybrid fighting system and life philosophy founded by Bruce Lee in 1967 with direct, non classical, and straight forward movements based on a compilation of different systems. Jeet Kune Do is primarily an open hand system. The system works on the use of different 'tools' for different situations. These situations are broken down into ranges(Kicking, Punching, Trapping, & Grappling), with techniques flowing smoothly between them. Also, it is referred to as a "style without style". Unlike more traditional martial arts, Jeet Kune Do is not fixed or patterned, and is a philosophy with guiding thoughts.

History:

Human

Born September 30th three-hundred years ago. His parents were Simon his father and Mary his mother. His only friends were his family since he didn't live long enough to go to school. His five years alive were good he got lots of toys and candy. His death was caused by a wagon accident were it flew off the cliff due to a wheel. He was the only one who died and his parents were fine aside from them losing there one and only son of course.

Plus

Waking up near remains of the wagon he found that no one would listen or pay attention to him. This is when he noticed the chain on his chest not knowing what it was he picked at it for a minute then left it alone. Leo's chain had been severed due to the incomparable damage done to his body. When his parents began there walk back to the village after shedding some tears Leo followed them even though they could not see him. Leo stayed with them for months watching as his chain got smaller and smaller he did not understand why it did that just that it happened. Then one night while his parents were asleep and he was wandering through the house his chain completely dissipated. His body evaporated then regrew as that of a teddy bear with an actual bears claws. He then puked up some kind of white liquid which quickly hardened to his face it was a mask. The mask looked like a teddy bears head.

Hollow

A strange hunger had come over him. He was hungry for souls. Not just any souls his parents souls. Walking up the stairs he made his way to his parents room. He looked upon them. He was so hungry. First killing his father then his mother he chased after there souls. Catching and consuming them he knew he wanted more. He began killing and eating the entire villagers souls. They were so sweet but they were not very filling. He wanted more so much more.

So he traveled to the next village over. He managed only to eat a few before he was confronted by a shinigami. He could sense there spiritual pressure and couldn't help it was just too good to pass up. He lunged at them. The shinigami quickly dodged putting a slash in the young hollows arm. He howled his haunting hollow howl. The young hollow flipped around charging and firing a cero from his mouth. The shinigami easily dodged it lunging at the hollow severing his head. Due to this the young boy's soul was purified and absolved from all his sins and sent to the soul society.

Back to a Plus

When he got to the soul society he felt that he should explore to see what exactly the soul society was like. As he did this he learned about shinigami and soul pressure and he decided to work at it so he could one day become a shinigami himself feeling it was better than sitting around and doing nothing. Karite was later picked up by a couple of soul reapers because of his high spiritual pressure and the fact that he felt hunger. He was quickly brought to the seritai and put into the Shinoreijutsuin.

Shinigami

While in the Shinoreijutsuin he was a well rounded student. He did seem to be better at swordsmanship and Hand-to-Hand compared to the other two arts. In kido he was average at best and also about average in shunpo. About five years through his schooling he learned shikai. One night he had heard someone calling for him he had heard the voice before but he could not place it. It took him a few minutes but he son learned it was his zanpakuto talking to him. He then began to listen. He closed his eyes and was soon pulled into his zanpakuto's world.

There stood a beautiful young woman. At first Karite was unsure of what was going on. Then the young woman spoke. "Karite Saiketsu, my name is," she seemed to trail off or maybe he just didn't hear her. "I sorry I didn't hear that could you repeat yourself," he asked. "Do you believe you are strong enough to wield my power," she asked seeming to ignore his question. "Yes I do," he said. "Then call out my name, for it is," she is cut off as Karite is back in the outside world. "Kusari Gai Takai," he yelled as his zanpakuto changed. He had just learned shikai.

After learning shikai Karite quickly graduated and was put into a squad. Little did he know that this squad would be were he would find the love of his life. He made many friends in the squad. Of course back then he was a whole different person. He was kind and considerate of others. He respected everyone in his squad. But no one held a candle to her. Tamashii Nikuyoku (soul lust) was her name. She was the most beautiful soul reaper he had ever seen. He spent days trying to get her attention and finally did so fifty years later. They dated for another fifty years before getting married.

Karite spent the next two-hundred years trying to perfect his shikai. He practiced whenever his wife was busy and he had time to do so. When he finally achieved it he told his wife who congratulated him. He never told any of the higher ups knowing if he did he would put on harder and longer missions keeping him away from his wife. Fifty years later one of his friends said that Tamashii Nikuyoku had special news for him and wanted to meet him in the forest of the soul society to tell him. He thanked his friend for telling him and went straight there. When he got there he saw someone he thought was a male shinigami but on closer inspection he noticed his robes where white. He then notice the hole in his chest. Karite had not seen anyone like this.

Then the arrancar pulled his hand away from a tree. Karite heard a thump and wondering what it was looked around the tree. There laying in a pool of her own blood was his wife her zanpakuto next to her and snapped in half. Karite's eyes flared up immediately. "YOU BASTARD," he yelled seeming to startle the man who flipped around. The man smiled. "Your a little late to be saving your comrade I've snapped her zanpakuto and severed her from her powers she'll be dead soon. Instantly Karite releases his zanpakuto to crush the man. He then lunges at him to that the man effortlessly grabs his zanpakuto. "You got to do better than that," he said as he effortlessly lifts Karite up and throws him into multiple trees before he was able to stop. He wanted this guy dead so he could save his wife. His zanpakuto lent him her power. He then made the strongest slash he had ever done but it wasn't enough the man grabbed his zanpakuto and kicked him sending him through more trees.

Vizard

Karite got onto his knees he was in a daze. The man began to walk and began to throw a punch. Then all of a sudden he slowed to a stop and Karite was unable to move. He wondered what was going on then. "Do you want to win," a mysterious child-like voice said. "Yes," said Karite a little confused. "Then let me take over I can help you," the voice said again. "How can you beat him hes too powerful," said Karite questioning. "Well you don't have anything to lose if you do let me take over so what do you say," the voice said a child like figure appearing in his head. "Fine just save Tamashii Nikuyoku," he said.

The mans fist was caught by Karite's hand. "What the-," the man didn't have time to finish as the darkened eyes of Karite looked up. A slash was made chopping off the mans arm. The man was taken by surprise and he jumped back. "What the hell," he said freaked out. "Whats the matter never seen a mask before," Leo said laughing his child like voice completely taking over. Leo lunged at the man to which the man pulled out his zanpakuto trying to block. When the zanpakuto's collided the man this time was sent through trees. Leo didn't let flying straight at he sending the zanpakuto into the mans head. The man before his head was stabbed into took his zanpakuto and sent it at the mask which got pierced and vanished.

The man disintegrated and Karite fell limp om the ground reaching out to his wifes body then blacked out. He awoke a few days later asking what happened to his wife but everyone said when someone found him he was alone. After answering all the questions about what attacked him he left the hospital he felt alone. His wife was gone and he was not strong enough to save her.

A few days later Karite had a completely different attitude. He was no longer a nice guy he was rude, lewd, vulgar, and half nihilistic. Some even commented that his fighting had become almost suicidal. For his protection and the protection of others he was thrown into the maggots nest and stayed there for fifty years. While in the maggots nest he took on all comers fighting anyone and everyone training his body to become a well fighting machine. When he was finally released it wasn't for good behavior he was released because the soul society had become short handed and he was one of the only ones who were thrown in the maggots nest and still loyal to the soul society.

Since then he has taken the position of Lieutenant of the 1st squad. He shall remain loyal and bout with the monster inside him.

The sash around the hilt is black in color whhile the guard of it is circular and gold. The sheath of his zanpakuto is black in color with a skeletal horse with a man in a long black robe etched in a blood red color on both sides of it. At the bottom of the sheath it has a steel part the goes all the way around and covers the bottom and goes up the sheath a few inches.

Zanpakuto Spirit:

Her name is Kusari Gai Takai (Chain Scythe of death in japanese)

Zanpakuto's Personality:

Cheerful and positive, Kusari's natural good looks could get the attention of all the males everywhere. Though good natured, she possesses a bit of naivety that draws her into problematic situations. While initially distrustful of Karite, she eventually grows to care for him. Her bond with him grows stronger over time to the point where she will give him her opinions on almost anything. She is also good friends with Leo, who considers himself and Moka "best friends", despite their rivalry for who should be in control Karite or Leo.(Hint: She choses Karite.)

Zanpakuto's appearance:

Kusari is mid height and pale skinned. She stands at a height of five foot five. Her hair is long and flowing all the way down to her lower back. Her hair is silver in color. Her eyes are like one who generally cares about others. Her eyes are also light blue with a little bit of silver and the pupils appear as slits. The build of her body is slim but with a little bit of muscle and her weight is unknown seeing as she has told no one it not even Karite. Kusari looks to be about twenty years old judging by her height and features. Her bust size appears to be about the size of grapefruits.

She wears what appears to be a japanese high school uniform. A white long sleeved collared shirt. A few of the buttons undone on the showing the top of her cleavage. Over the white shirt is a green long sleeved button vest with white trim. The vest is unbutton even more so than the white shirt. She also wears a short black skirt.(Stops at the middle of her thigh.) She also wears blacck heel raised shoes and long black socks that go a little higher than her ankle. She wears a silver-gold necklace that has a silver cross hanging from it.

Inner World:

Zanpakuto's world:

The Zanpakuto's world is that of a vast school court yard. In the very back of it is the school which has blue windows and is white with brown trim. The school is four stories tall in size. In the middle of the court yard is a circular fountain thats shoots a jet of water in the exact middle of it. There is a straight pathway leading to the fountain. The path almost looks symmetrical on both sides. There are cherry blossom trees on both sides and under them are benches. There are also skinny light posts along the path way.

Inner Hollow:

Leo Kawaii is his name.

Hollow's Personality:

Leo Kawaii can be thought of as a very childish and sweets-loving boy who is much older than his Pre-school appearance would indicate. He always carries around a teddy bear he named Nuigurumi (Means stuffed animal in Japanese). He used to hide his true self (with much difficulty) by being a "real man" for some time, but he found it to boring and believed that liking cute things wasn't bad, he soon realized that there was absolutely no need for him to hide his true self. Despite his childish looks, he is deceptively physically strong and is a highly skilled swordsman. When talking he will use a child like voice as well and when talking to the two he will use shortened versions of there names followed by senpai and other formalities.

The way that he is mischievous is that he likes to play little pranks on Karite often stalling his movements to cause him to be hit. He likes playing more than fighting but if he has to fight he will use his child like voice to make them feel guilty about attacking him. If hes fighting someone who is unfazed by fighting children he will then try to stop the initial attack on him and demobilize the opponent with self defense maneuvers. If he is unsuccessful with this he will use other martial arts and if its too dangerous for that he will use his swordsmanship styles. All an all he is a blend of offensive and defensive fighting. Also while in a fight he sees the fight itself as the game he didn't get to play with his opponent and will usually fool around with them trying to irritate them for his own amusement.

The way he can be considered bratty is: If either of the two touches his teddy bear without permission he will react in one of two ways. He will pout and throw a temper tantrum until they give it back or he will climb on them and hit them till they give it back. He also tends to cry to manipulate others to do what he wants. When he surfaces he will usually scower the area for a teddy bear. As for other races he does not hate anyone no matter what unless they do something to harm him or if they won't play with him.

Hollow's Appearance:

Leo Kawaii is short and light skinned. He stands at a height of three feet. His hair is kind of short and wavy with a little hanging in front of his forehead. His hair color is blond. His eyes are that of a child's, innocent and full of hope. His eyes are also light brown in color. The build of his body is slim with above average muscularity and he weighs eighty pounds total. Leo looks to be five years old with his height and child like features.

His hollow fragment is his tongue making it white in color. His hollow hole is located on his chest and tunnels all the way through to his back. His number is tattooed on the lower part of his back. There is a giant scar on his back going from the upper left down to the lower right. He got this scar from playing a prank on an arrancar stronger than himself and he wasn't amused. The arrancar was male which may be why he does not like them too much. Other than that he has no other visible scarring. He also has no missing limbs and everything seems to be intact.

He wears the standard arrancar outfit but with certain changes. His is dark green with a little bit of light green patterning over it. He wears a pink haori over his kimono that is pink with patterns of cute little bear heads all over it. The haori's sleeves are a little big and extend just over his hands. The bottom is made up of dark green and light green material as well. He wears the standard black sash as well.

Hollow Mask:

The mask appears as a blank human face with black outlining the eyes. Black markings go from the left to the right over the mouth resembling someone with there mouth sewn shut. A red symbol on the forehead appears. The symbol looks to be two circles with a upside down star in the middle. Odd markings appear at each point of the star as well. To apply his mask he seems to wipe his hand across his face flicking off what looks like black reistu.

This is what it looks like:

Hollow Powers:

Cero (ÐééW (¥»¥í), sero; Spanish for "Zero", Japanese for "Hollow Flash", 'Doom Blast' in the Viz translation) is a form of attack used by Menos, Arrancar and Vizard. Basically an energy blast, it consists of firing a blast of concentrated spirit energy at the target. While in most cases it is fired from the mouth, some Arrancar and Vizard are capable of firing Cero from their hands, fingers and other parts of their bodies. This often requires the user to under take a specific pose. His pose is him looking down the sight of his arm. The color of his cero is black.

Bala (Ð鏎 (¥Ð¥é), bara; Spanish for "Bullet", Japanese for "Hollow Bullet") is a technique that hardens the user's Reiatsu and releases it like a swift blast of spiritual energy. While the technique is not nearly as powerful as a Cero, its speed is 20 times faster and allows for it to be fired in quick repetition. A Bala's speed and power varies with the power of the user. The color of his bala is black and is fired from his fists.

Release Phrase: While spinning the scythe rapidly around his left index finger he says: God's right hand, Kusari Gai Takai (Chain scythe of death in japanese) to release his shikai.
Shikai Appearance:

The blade of his zanpakuto almost becomes winglike and gains about a foot of length. On the same end as the blade but on the other side appears a tiny hook like blade along with three fairly long ribbons. The shaft stays the same size but now is metal with gray, white, and black cloth wrapped around it. The guard in the middle of the shaft stays as well.

Shikai Abilities:

Kusari Gai Takai is a melee based zanpakuto.

Chain linked

The blade of his zanpakuto shoots out of the tip of the shaft connected by a four foot chain made of his reistu. The chain is red in color just like his reistu.

Effects

Extends the reach of his zanpakuto by four feet making its total reach about ten feet, can also be used to wrap around an opponent with the length of the chain, he can hold on to the chain it self spinning it to deliver damage as well, or use it to hook onto something and pull him away from the spot he is in.

Limitations

5% of his reistu is committed to the chain itself, The chain can be severed requiring Karite to reattach the blade before thee chain can be reformed again. Now what I mean by committed is the reistu is being put into the zanpakuto and it can be reabsorbed into his body unless the chain is severed which if it is the reistu is lost and can't be reabsorbed.

Sample Post:

Today was a day of complete peace. Almost nothing was wrong. The birds and wild life could be heard singing. There was the smell of flowers all around. Even the sight of it was almost soothing. The feel of a cool breeze went by complimenting the sun as its heat warmed the bodies of all who was around. "Isn't it a beautiful day," Kusari said seeming to dance around in Karite's head. "I guess it is," Karite said as he lay in the grass. He had lost the taste for beautiful things. These days he only found few things beautiful the blood of his enemies and women.

"How can you say I guess its a beautiful day and you can't be even a little happy," she said and a image of her with her hands on her hips appeared in Karite's mind.
"If you want me to say somethings beautiful give me a person who needs to be slashed if you don't have that don't bother," he said closing his eyes.
"Ch!," said Karite as he fell asleep letting the the sun be his blanket and the breeze be his fresh air.
"You don't have to be so sarcastic," she said her image flipping around in a huff.

He slept all the way through till the next day. He had the nightmare he always had. And all through until he awoke he relived it over and over. The nightmare of that day still rang in his ears. He suddenly awoke. He had felt the hollow trying to gain control again. But this time he tried to do it in his sleep.

"And what do you think your doing," he asked the child like hollow. "Nothin," the little boy anwsered back in a sheepish child-like voice. "Right and I suppose I just dreamt you were trying to take over again. You remember what happened last time," he said with a little intensity in his voice. The hollows image flinched a little. "Well you can't get me now so uh," he responded with his tongue sticking out then his image vanished.

"Ch! That boy never learns," he said a little mad he was awoken. "Oh don't be too hard on him. You would be eager to get out to if you were in someone elses body," his zanpakuto said knowing she was right. "Ch! Well whatever I need to head back anyway I guess," he said standing up and began to shunpo back to the seretei. "Oh and Karite," she said. "What," he said with a little attitude in his voice. "Thanks," she said ignoring his attitude. "Don't worry about it," he said watching the trees go by.
