Pepe pulled at the ends of his pointed, V-shaped beard. So, it was finally time. His majesty wanted him to come to Soul Society and spread his (✿ ♥‿♥) Love~ (♥‿♥ ✿)! Of course, it was the love of His Majesty himself that they were coming here to Soul Society, that love that the Shinigami just didn't understand. As the gate of the sun opened, he stepped out from the shadows into the beautiful sunshine of Soul Society. That air! That breeze! That freshness... The tang in the air, Pepe could feel it... IT WAS LOOOOOOOOOOOVE! (*^^'*) His basket floated forwards, supporting his plump form as he felt these things, he felt the world making love to his bare head. He waved his staff joyously, placing a pair of cool shades upon his face. He smiled wide, a huge grin of broad square teeth. Surely, all over the Soul Society now his fellow Sternritter would be emerging from their own sun gates. He hovered forward, a legion of looooovely soldat following behind him, oh-so imperiously. Oh yes, Pepe wasn't alone, his love had enticed a whole army into following him!
As soon as they emerged into the streets of the Seireitei, already there were cries of surprise and shock and pain as an enormous pillar of blue flames signified the arrival of Pepe and his entourage. Several shinigami before them drew their zanpakuto, but Pepe swept his staff broadly. Placing it down upon the ground he launched (✿ ♥‿♥)The Love~ (♥‿♥ ✿) at several of the shinigami. The rest were mowed down swiftly, their dead bodies bleeding profusely as they were pockmarked by arrow holes from the soldat's endless barrage of arrows. Pepe's grin widened, if such a thing were even possible, as the shinigami who felt his Love (♥ω♥*) marched closer and fell in, rank and file with his Soldat.
"Listen up my loooooovelies! How about we go and take care of some of these... Shinigami!" he said to the entourage, floating above them, high in his basket. There was a general cheer. Pepe adjusted his sunglasses. How he had to find an opponent worthy of fighting, so he could earn His Majesty's love.
"Closer and closer... until you are captive to my melody."
Rose had been in his office when the Quincy struck. He had not initially been alerted to the commotion as he had been listening to the new Toro Y Moi album that had dropped recently. Such a delightful sound they possessed. Even the bright flash of the burning pillars of light had not instantly alerted him, however the reiatsus of Taicho all over Soul Society flaring up did in fact bring him to attention. Was well as other, stranger reiatsus. Were those... Quincy!? He tore his headphones from his ears and got to his feet, at the same moment as several members of the Sanbantai entered his office, their faces terror-stricken, and their eyes full of a deep fear that struck chill blades into Rose's heart.
"What happened?" he asked them, concern drawn upon his long face, as he retrieved Kinshara from its sash.
"We were attacked! There's something out there turning out own men against us!" It was Rikū Togakushi, the third seat of the division. Rose's eyes narrowed. How could this be? The loyalty of his division, questioned? How unpoetic. He swept his hair back dramatically, fixing his eyes on his subordinate.
"Show me." he commanded and Rikū nodded seriously, before leading the way out of the Sanbantai barracks. They immediately encountered a group of quincy soldiers. Rose used his shunpo to get behind a number of them before they could ready their bows and sliced them down using his excellent swordsman's grace. Rikū and the other lower seated officers took quick care of the rest. They hurried onwards, in the direction of the huge blue pillar of flaming reishi. What a frightful display.
They appeared at the top of a building, and Rikū pointed down towards a large legion of soliders who were advancing from the pillar. Some familiar faces were below them, fighting for the enemy. What a dramatic occurrence. Rose sighed angrily, leaping down.
"This way captain!" the third seat gestured and they leapt down to join the fray. As they did, Rose felt the reiatsu of their allies bolster, now they had been joined by their captain. Rose danced to and fro, swaying to the beat of the battle, his zanpakuto flicking back and forth like the steady beat of the conductors' baton, listening to the suble melody of sword on sword and bow, of blades rending flesh. "Look!" Rikū said after several moments, pointing to the sky. "He's the one who's been turning our forces against us!" the third seat informed Rose, but the very next moment, his hand, and indeed the very end of his arm appeared to have been blasted away. Rose's usually drawn face flinched in surprised.
"Rikū!" he said, his throbbing tenor now a warbling shout of surprise. The third seat had taken an arrow straight to the face however, a hole had been blown straight through his brain. Rose leapt up to confront the culprit, an oddly obese man with a beard, sat in some kind of basket. He looked like a hideous, twisted version of a cherubim. He knocked away a couple of arrows that the quincy loosed at him as he sped closer using his flash steps.
"What manner of guitar could fail to cry when faced with the betrayal of so many good people and the death of a comrade? My guitar is already crying. I hope you don't expect to leave this place alive... Quincy." Rose said softly to the disgusting cherub man, releasing Kinshara, and summoning his hollow mask to his face with an elegant swish.
Well well well. There had been a prime example of a naughty shinigami who had not wanted to accept his (✿ ♥‿♥) Love~ (♥‿♥ ✿)! Pepe hovered past the Sanbantai's barracks, the Soldat below him swarming past the lower-echelon shinigami, many of which were fighting on the Quincies' side now they had felt the warmth of Pepe's looooooove~ ˶⚈Ɛ⚈˵ The long, witch-doctor esque mask was perched upon his rod, its blank eyes reflecting Pepe's own sunglasses-covered face as he showed off his trophy. He had dumped Rose Otoribashi's broken, battered body down in the crumpled building below. It seemed that no matter how much he tried to communicate all that bitterness and sadness through his music, such dreary, depressing feelings stood little chance against the Power of Love. It appeared he had been one of the first to take out a Taicho! The Power Of Love prevailed yet again, and Pepe, as its ultimate commander was the victor, as per usual. He grinned as his beard tickled his chest while he flew around happily upon his basket, waving the now bird-looking staff around, hoping that perhaps he could bait some more strong shinigami into coming and fighting him.
Perhaps Shunsui Kyoraku! Or maybe Sui Feng, or even... The Captain Commander Genryuusai Yamamoto himself. Pepe bet that that old codger had felt a lot of love in his time, his gnarly, sinewy twisted old body wasn't pure and gentle like Pepe's innocent, pellucid form. The bald headed cupid felt some strong reiatsu signatures nearby... It was time for someone else to feel the burning desire of love!! ƪ(♥ﻬ♥)ʃ
Raiden sat in his cell, on the chair in the middle of the room, merely watching the cherry petals float by through the barred window. He had been shown docile enough that they didn't bother with chains anymore. Anyone that came to visit him was met with a short response, or ignored at all. His body and muscle were wasting away. Because he refused to properly eat. But a set of footsteps warned him to the presence of a group. His executioners?
He turned slightly on his chair, looking up tiredly at the gathering. One of them was wearing traditional kidoushuu garbs.
"The Seireitei is under attack," one stated. Raiden's still functioning eye widened momentarily. "We offer you a chance at redemption, do you wish to fight?" Raiden chuckled dryly in response. "No, I don't want a chance at redemption, nor do I wanna fight." He stood up again, blinking momentarily as blood rushed through his head. "But I want to protect my friends still."
What followed was the painful process of administering the seal. Assigning a hell butterfly. The parting words of the kidoushuu were; "It's done, Saitou-san. Fulfill your duty."
The last sentence kept haunting is thoughts. He was pulled from his jail, a kind of kidou slapped onto him. One that would soul sleep him the instant the hell butterfly on his shoulder was destroyed. Or when it saw that Raiden turned around to attack the other shinigami. His right arm was released, the ice of the blade sheening in the sunlight as he made his way to the rally point, though it was with a small detour.
Raiden lowered his course, raising his fist to smack through a wall, looking up at Hebikiba on a shrine, chained and nullified with various paper charms. He moved over, grasping hilt and tearing it from the chains, breaking the sealing kidou with sheer physical force.
And he exited by bursting through the other wall, concrete exploding behind him as he did. And soon, he reached the gathering point, left hand gripping the massive sword, the hell butterfly resting on the white fabric of his prisoner's garb.
{Techniques} Actives Name: Body fling Class: Human stepping Type: Stepping Range: up to 100 meters Tier: I Description: Focussing on the reiatsu under his feet, he propels himself towards given direction with explosive speed. Causing the ground to shatter underneath his point of start. He marks the destination with a faint glow from his reiatsu as a sense of direction. This can also be used in shinigami form. There does not have to a glow of reiatsu when he uses his zanpakutou as anchor for this technique. Various of these spots can appear at the same time to chain up the stepping technique or cause confusion on a target.
Name: Shunpo (Flash Steps) Class: Stepping Type: Stepping Range: N/A Tier: I Description: A movement technique that allows the user to move extremely quickly over short distances. The focal point that determines the basis of this technique is speed. Therefore what determines the level of skill in a user for Shunpo is best characterized by how fast one can get from A to B in the least amount of steps. Auto-gained for Shinigami at ML.
Name: Frost queen's claim Class: Offensive melee item Tier: V Range: Personal Description: As the arrancar, Fryst Dronning tore off Raiden's arm, she soon after felt regret, and re-gifted his arm through ice and reiryoku. Hebikiba immediatly took sovereignity of the reiryoku in the gifted arm, and, so, giving it special properties. Ability: The skin around the blade shreds open and reveals the ice, wich reforms into a poisenous ice-blade. This blade is bankai-tier and deals tier V strikes. This blade is channeled through with Raiden's reiatsu and thus, works with the poison sting and Caustic poison passive. This can only happen once per thread, when the arm is released and destroyed, it regenerates in five posts. When it is sealed and destroyed, it regenerates withing two posts. Cooldown/Drawback: The arm has shikai durability in its sealed state. This item persists through, is usable and can be activated during bankai. -ACTIVATED-
Passives Speed x2 Strength x2
Constant release perk: Overwhelming Power: This buff is an incomplete cap left on the compression of power, causing for explosive torrents of reiatsu to surge around the user. This form of ability causes reiatsu sensing abilities to scramble when in the presence of the user, and also gives their overall speed and strength a 2x boost [not affecting steps]. The primary perk of this form is that it allows the user to practically use their overflowing reiryoku as a weapon. Most commonly found as waves of energy with the swing or focus of the Shikai of varying power, along with an increase in pressure by 50%.
Name: Poison sting Class: Shikai Ability Type: Passive Range: Close Tier: I Description: With the overwhelming power perk, the length of Hebikiba can run up to 2.5 meters, cutting with pure reiatsu, the cuts of the blade leaves scorches, no wounds.

After 5 posts of activation, Raiden still has his passive immume to tier II and his own.

KUCHIKI BYAKUYA . Sixth division TAICHOU . HEAD OF THE NOBLE KUCHIKI CLAN YOU THINK YOURSELF MY EQUAL WHEN IN TRUTH YOU AREN'T EVEN CLOSE TO MY LEVEL [keepkeep]
It was a beautiful day in Soul Society, the sun was shining and the clouds were sparse. Byakuya was in the Shrine to Hisana in his home, kneeling down as he placed each hand down on the floor. His body slowly lowered forward before the picture he had of his wife, his nose touched the ground for a few moments before he sat back up fully. As his body rose there was a sudden shake of the entire house, the immediate appearance of numerous very powerful beings entering Soul Society. Byakuya's eyes went wide for a moment before he reached down and grabbed Senbonzakura and quickly rose to his feet, a few of his Servants rushing towards him as he left the shrine. Byakuya raised his hand as one of them opened their mouth to speak "Hide." He told them before turning towards the source of the closest signature, It seemed Rose had already... Byakuya's eyes widened once more as Rose's Reiatsu vanished "Just like that?" He thought to himself as he vanished from the spot towards where the large signature was, His speed was neigh-uncatchable in stepping. Because of Byakuya's speed he reached Pepe in a matter of seconds, appearing some 50 feet in front of the bulbous man. His eyes swiftly scanned the field before him, his eyes narrowing before turning back to Pepe. It was obvious where all of this stemmed from, and it seemed that numerous Shinigami had turned to join his side. A Quincy. This Quincy would have his undivided attention.
Another Shinigami was already here well before Byakuya, it was the traitor Raiden. Guilty of killing another Shinigami, a high ranked member of the 10th Squad. "Curious that they would let a traitor out." He said without looking at Raiden "You listen to my orders, do as I say. Fail too and I will cut you down here and now." His voice was one of authority, he gave no care to how Raiden felt or what he thought. He was a traitor, by all rights Byakuya could kill him now. At a simple glance it would seemed that he broke out of his prison, that alone would be reason enough to end him right here and now. However Byakuya wasn't a fool, if he obeyed his orders and aided in this fight then perhaps he could be spared this one time. His attention remained on Pepe "You will go no further, You die here." That was all Byakuya said to the Quincy, Byakuya's Reiatsu flaring to life. This Quincy had been graced by Byakuya's ire because of several reasons, He was invading his home, he had killed Rose and numerous other Shinigami. He cared not for who he was or why he was here.. He was attacking Soul Society, and he would not get away with it.
{Techs}-- Active -- Name: Singularity Gate Class: Spec Stepping Tier: N/A Type: Stepping Range: 50m Description: Byakuya's speed is unmatched within all of Soul Society save for Yoruichi Shihoin, Even then Yoruichi herself would find herself at a loss for words at the immense speed Byakuya has developed. Byakuya's stepping is no longer hindered by the space around him, the Universe itself bends to his speed and because of such Byakuya is able to simply jump through the Universe to reach his destination. This functions as a Mid-Combat Teleportation Technique.
Name: Reiatsu Suppression Class: Reiatsu Control Tier: VI Type: Binding Range: 50m with no fall off Duration Remaining: 4 Posts Description: The power to manifest your reiatsu pressure around you, forcing your enemies to their knees with your substantial reiatsu, and even rendering them unconscious with enough advantages. This ability can also be used defensively to ward off an opponent's version of the ability.
-- Passive -- [Spatial Knowledge] You’re not quite sure how it happened. One day, in your endless mission to obtain the greatest possible speed, you stepped forward and ended up far beyond what should have been possible through physical movement alone. Your steps were so perfect, so instantaneous, that the universe itself couldn’t keep up and on that day your steps warped space to get you there faster. With this new knowledge at your side you can now create techniques under the stepping mastery that act as mid-combat teleportation. It should be noted that this skill cannot be used to travel between worlds, and the range and other limitation of these abilities will be graded case by case.
[Radiant Steps] Stepping isn’t only about speed, it's a complete system of movement utilizing the whole of your body and spiritual energy. For some, the precise control that develops with these skills can be be honed to add in additional movement or spiritual exertion without affecting the speed of the step. With this perk, you are allowed more freedom when it comes to stepping techniques and variants. This includes abilities that allow you to attack while stepping (à la senka). Your stepping abilities will also now have their own cooldown type. Maximum tier for these abilities is tier V.
-- Kidou Specializations -- Eishōhaki (詠唱破棄, "Incantation Abandonment"): is the skill in which a Kidō practitioner skips using a spoken incantation completely, but it drastically weakens the spell. This is applied as a 1-2 tier drop in the spells power depending on ones Kidou mastery, 2 for Beginner up to Advanced, and 1 for Mastered and above. However this also lowers the spells cooldown to match the lowered tier, to a minimum of Tier I.e.g A Tier IV Kidou be cast with Eishohaki as a tier II, its cooldown will also be the same at 0 posts.
Zen Sanshutsu Eishohaki (全産出詠唱破棄, Full Yield Incantation Abandonment): A specialisation of the arts that enables you to unleash the full Tier power of a Kidou without saying the incantation. Kidoshu members are able to do this by default, with how well they can do this dictated by their Kidoshu Perk Mastery. For other Shinigami to achieve the same effect, they must train each Kidou spell separately without incantations.
Post by Misato Ketsugōi on May 25, 2017 5:28:37 GMT
The day began with favored drink in hand. Today's plan was to booze much as she can through honey meet. With spirit high and plan loud and clear Misato did not care what tomorrow would bring. Wooden mug filled right hand gripped only to swash down followed by nearby cold-cut hoagie. Stomach filled with alcoholic liquid ignited by spiritual power sent forth purple flames from her mouth. "Haha!' Alone this day Misato sat by herself talking with herself, wooden twin blades at bedside. Joy bolstered, Misato moving to open a window that she sat on window edge.
Daily life wasn’t so simple anymore. These past few years, she reflected, had gotten weirder compared when she traveled around looking for glory and adventure. Misato engorged herself with Soul Society customs during her time here. They were both different yet similar to Humans. During her time here she’d yet found an answer to what did it mean to be Sub Shinigami. Life, it was strange but enjoyable. While other Crisis Core members slowly started getting along with her better she hadn’t fully gotten to know any of them. She’d yet invest her time in who they were though she got to understand them some during their time training with Blod and that event with Inigo. Things, they really were weird.
The several appearances of large blue pillars caught her attention. What they were was unknown they she kept watching. Maybe this was apart of some culture thing but as she continued watching one pillar she took notice of the strange appearances of spiritual pressure. She hadn’t sensed such before. This felt distant yet Human, pure yet without a holy attribute. What were these things? Just pillars of pure Reishi? Something like that. She sighed and took a sip of coffee from her coffee pot she started some hours ago to go off at this time. However, as she sipped on her coffee something caught her attention; A Captain’s Reiatsu was vanishing.
Still holding her cup of coffee Misato set out towards the pillar. She landed right beside Raiden who it seemed Byakuya was speaking words to. Her eyes didn’t shift from the Quincy though. She smelled of alcohol and her own kneeled stance somewhat tipsy. In her right hand she carried a gourd filled with am mix of coffee and alcohol. Her two wooden zanpakutou at her left side. ”Hey Rai-Rai, you wanna tag on this like before?” She shifted him a smile. Despite being somewhat of a lover of alcohol Misato knew how to fight when drunk. She’d already proven that during their Kidou exercise. "Oh, and Bya, give Rai-Rai more credit. Enemy of my enemy is my friend, as some we Humans say."
So I will take this burden on and become the holy one
She'd been in the Seireitei communing with Byakko when the Spirit had noticed the strange pillars emitting from her world and told Kaori she had to retreat from her inner world and face down whatever threat had invaded the Soul Society. At first as her world of ice shattered around her, Kaori had believed her spirit to be joking. But as she regained consciousness with the Seireitei, the female could instantly feel the disturbance Byakko had sensed in her own world.
Sheathing her Zanpakutou at her hip, the female's steps carried her briskly to the nearest pillar of reishi, a familiar sense of Quincy reiatsu overcoming her. It was strong. Grunting, the female pressed on, allowing the familiar reiatsu signatures of Misato, Raiden, and Byakuya to guide her to their location.
She could smell the alcohol on Misato, though the female made no comment about it. The female had proven during their kidou training with Blodeuwen that the first division's representative was capable of fighting while drunk. It was something Kaori did not agree with, but at this point, reprimanding the female would not change her current state of soberness. Instead, the female's cerulean gaze rested on Raiden, mixed feelings twisting her gut. It was good to see him again, but the fact he had been slaving away in a jail cell because he had killed another Shinigami weighed guilty with her. "Ketsugoi-san, Saitou-san," the female greeted her two substitutes before her gaze rested on her captain. "What are your orders, Taichou?"
Remember I am human and I'm bound to sing this song
The medical centre wasn't too far from the third division's barracks, and as a result, when the Quincy invaded, Arata was one of the first to know, as casualties poured in. He also felt the vanishing reiatsu of Captain Rose Otoribashi. That was anything but good. He also felt the reiatsus of the other members of the Crisis Core heading past. Even... Raiden? Arata liked Raiden, he was one of the more sensible of the rag-tag-bunch-of-misfits, but to kill another shinigami with his powers was inexcusable. The excuse, or so he had been told, was that the shinigami he had been sparring with had attempted to break his zanpakuto. Arata could understand that fear but wasn't entirely sure if it could drive him to kill. He was given these powers to help people, not to kill. He sighed morosely. He supposed he had better join them nonetheless. His supervisor had already tossed his zanpakuto to him from across the room, telling him to go. Seems he was more desperately needed on the battlefield than in the hospital, despite the casualties. He flew out the door, skidding down the corridor. Even Arata's fastest run appeared somehow slow-motion and morose, almost lazy.
He exited the hospital and transformed his appearance so as to appear in his human form. In general it made him appear less threatening and was the form he was the least clumsy in, his grown-up Shinigami form too gangly and angular for his liking. He exited his step, spraying water forward which dried up as quickly as it appeared. He was right next to Kaori, who in this form was a fair bit taller than him. "Reverse your fate, Sohan." he said, slowly removing his zanpakuto from its scabbard, and as he did so it transformed into two bladed rings that surrounded his wrists.
"Mejiro senpai." he greeted her softly, his eyes sad. She was beautiful as always. Arata surveyed the scene. Captain Kuchiki was laying down a heavy blanket of reiatsu, which seemed to have halted the advance of the enemy army. Misato was there too with Raiden and he could tell from her wobble that she was drunk again. He sighed. It would be him cleaning up peoples' messes, it seemed, as per usual. He wanted to cast Gyaku Kogeki upon Kaori, but to do something like that would be entirely disrespectful. She asked Kuchiki what he wanted them to do... Arata didn't really like the captain much. He had tried to execute his own sister, for "honour" or "duty". Why couldn't people just get on? It was one of the worst parts of the Japanese psyche.
Perhaps most notably in the scene before him, however, was the strange quincy. He was sat in some sort of basket, and he was wearing "cool shades", and he had a bald head. He was sort of pudgy too. Arata's instincts as a doctor were to tell him to get some exercise. For now he would await what would happen next.
{Spoiler} Name: Serumate Class: Reiryoku Techniques Tier: III Type: Supplementary Range: Self Description: Arata is able to change his appearance at will, as long as all of his features remain human. If he has lost any body parts or gained any scars, these will remain but facial features, hair colour, skin colour etc. he can modify at his own behest.
Last Edit: May 31, 2017 15:18:04 GMT by ARATA SENKI
By threading with Arata you are giving permission for his Clerical Anti-Kill Clause to be in place. If you do not PM to withdraw permission (and to allow Arata to withdraw from the thread) before replying to any post made by Arata, the clause will be in place.
Ahhhhhhhhhh yes. They came to him, drawn in like flies by the honey of his l o v e l i n e s s (•ө•)♡. Famous Captain, Byakuya Kuchiki, here he appeared. But he wasn't alone. There was a collective of other shinigami around him... Pepe didn't know any of these others, but some of them appeared to be taicho-strength shinigami. All the more fun for him then, in the end! Already, there seemed to be some form of in-fighting amongst the new arrivals. Such violent words! Such a beautiful love shared between Byakuya and the young shinigami Raiden, why else would the Taicho deliver such delectably harsh words?
"Oh Uweheeheeheeheehee!" Pepe said, with an accompanying broad, pearly white smile. He whizzed up into the air in his basket, spinning his staff whereby it transformed into a curvy, ornate bow. He drew back a single arrow, with a plump, heart-shaped tip. "You must really be in love... With roses ≧❀‿❀≦" Pepe said, as he launched a single arrow which split off into several, one for each of the shinigami gathered before them. He would continue to pepper the shinigami with arrows, testing their feeble bodies, trying them, to see which of them was ready... To take... His L O V E ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
Name: Barrage Class: Archery Style Tier: V Type: Offensive Range: 100m Description: Shoots a single arrow, which shortly after firing, splits into several, one for each opponent, aiming to scatter them.
He stood there, completely in the white garb. His eyes so cold that they could only belong to someone so dead inside that execution was not a threat. But an offer at salvation. He glanced sidewards at Byakuya, before shaking his head. "A murderer. Not a traitor," he answered. "It was either her or me," he stated coldly. "That being said. I am here at Central 46's command." His hand moved up, tugging down the robe to reveal the seal on his chest. "They'd kill me before I even fall out of line, Kuchiki-taichou." And those were the words he had for the captain. He never really had met the man, so he didn't care about his convictions or idealogies.
Other people arrived, people he once called friends and colleagues. People he trusted with his life and people that trusted him. A soft, tired sigh came from him as he glanced at Misato. Though in that sigh was a hint of warmth left, he was reminded back of the good old times he shared with these people. He glanced over his shoulder at Kaori as she spoke, nodding his greeting, before back at the quincy. He didn't have words for them. He could easily explain the situation to someone as detached and uninvolved as Byakuya.
But he couldn't even bear to look the others in their eyes. His attention, however, was immediately pulled back to Pepe when the words left his mouth. It didn't take long before an arrow was shot. He took a step back and growled something under his breath, before leaning sidewards and dodging out of the way. Opting to get nice up close and personal to the quincy, no questions asked.
And with a massive heave, he pulled up the zanpakutou, and aimed to smack his head in.

After Byakuya's appearance more of the Crisis Core members began to arrive. Misato Ketsugōi, Arata and, his own Representative, Kaori. Misato tried to convince Byakuya to be 'easy' on Raiden... That simply would not happen. "Raiden is a traitor, he killed a Shinigami with his own hands." He said, not taking his eyes off of the Quincy that now threatened his home. His attention moved to Kaori's question, though as he was getting ready to answer the Quincy began to move. Byakuya's eyes narrowed as he watched carefully everything the man did, The Quincy shot off a single arrow.. But wh~... Oh. It split into four different ones, the instant it split Byakuya reached down and grasped his Zanpakuto, swinging it in a wide arc upwards as he unsheathed it "Scatter, Senbonzakura" The command phrase spoken, the blade glowing a bright pink before seeming to 'scatter' into a thousand blades as the blade was unsheathed. They flew at incredible speeds towards the arrows, aiming to slice each one in half and render them ineffective. "Watch him carefully, study every single thing he does no matter how small or insignificant it may seem." He whispered softly too Kaori "And no matter what, do not let him hit you. I have a bad feeling about those arrows." Holding the army in place was childs-play really, Byakuya was one of the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society after all. "Everyone, This goes without saying but do not let those arrows touch you. I have a very bad feeling about them and this man, moreso than any other Quincy I've faced." Of course one shouldn't be touched by an enemy attack, but this Quincy inparticular seemed far different than the others.
With the arrows nullified his blade once more was brought upwards in a vertical arc, this time the petals surged to life directly towards the Quincy himself. Byakuya's face was as stoic as ever, not a single emotion portrayed over his face as he stared unflinching towards the Quincy "Begone Quincy, and take your pathetic army with you." He had a terrible feeling about this Quincy, far moreso than what a more inexperienced Shinigami might. He was worried for all of the Crisis Core members here, They were all still relatively inexperienced in comparison to Byakuya. He knew most of them only by name or reputation, Kaori was the one exception as he'd taken to personally training her as of late. Such an arrival as this wasn't what they had thought was going to happen, he expected Olympus to mount an assault... The sudden surge of Quincy's in the Seireitei was beyond disturbing, how did they get passed the alarm system? And how did they gain access to this realm anyway? So many questions. Regardless, Byakuya kept his attention on the Quincy.
{Techniques} -- Active -- Shikai released Shikai attack aimed to destroy all four arrows.
Name: Reiatsu Suppression Class: Reiatsu Control Tier: VI Type: Binding Range: 50m with no fall off Duration Remaining: 4 Posts Description: The power to manifest your reiatsu pressure around you, forcing your enemies to their knees with your substantial reiatsu, and even rendering them unconscious with enough advantages. This ability can also be used defensively to ward off an opponent's version of the ability.
-- Passive -- [Spatial Knowledge] You’re not quite sure how it happened. One day, in your endless mission to obtain the greatest possible speed, you stepped forward and ended up far beyond what should have been possible through physical movement alone. Your steps were so perfect, so instantaneous, that the universe itself couldn’t keep up and on that day your steps warped space to get you there faster. With this new knowledge at your side you can now create techniques under the stepping mastery that act as mid-combat teleportation. It should be noted that this skill cannot be used to travel between worlds, and the range and other limitation of these abilities will be graded case by case.
[Radiant Steps] Stepping isn’t only about speed, it's a complete system of movement utilizing the whole of your body and spiritual energy. For some, the precise control that develops with these skills can be be honed to add in additional movement or spiritual exertion without affecting the speed of the step. With this perk, you are allowed more freedom when it comes to stepping techniques and variants. This includes abilities that allow you to attack while stepping (à la senka). Your stepping abilities will also now have their own cooldown type. Maximum tier for these abilities is tier V.
-- Kidou Specializations -- Eishōhaki (詠唱破棄, "Incantation Abandonment"): is the skill in which a Kidō practitioner skips using a spoken incantation completely, but it drastically weakens the spell. This is applied as a 1-2 tier drop in the spells power depending on ones Kidou mastery, 2 for Beginner up to Advanced, and 1 for Mastered and above. However this also lowers the spells cooldown to match the lowered tier, to a minimum of Tier I.e.g A Tier IV Kidou be cast with Eishohaki as a tier II, its cooldown will also be the same at 0 posts.
Zen Sanshutsu Eishohaki (全産出詠唱破棄, Full Yield Incantation Abandonment): A specialisation of the arts that enables you to unleash the full Tier power of a Kidou without saying the incantation. Kidoshu members are able to do this by default, with how well they can do this dictated by their Kidoshu Perk Mastery. For other Shinigami to achieve the same effect, they must train each Kidou spell separately without incantations.
I’ve grown attached to them. These, people who I never would’ve meet if I simply stayed Human. Whether or not I’m Shinigami, Human, or something else does not matter. Because this, this is life. Words without thought spoke via a red indigo and violet emotional spectrum: Rage, compassion, and love. Though she’d not known him long Raiden even considering himself a murderer seemed wrong. Maybe so, but Bya calling him traitor sounded wrong too. What were Kaori and Atara’s thoughts? Even while drunk Misato’s thoughts ran, somewhat, smooth but also erratic, skipping pivotal details and thinking more on emotion rather than intellectual judgement.
Arrows fired. Bya released his legendary Senbonzakura. Scattering petals sliced heart shaped arrows with words whispered to Kaori then a warning followed suit. Raiden moved. Touka. Misato spoke a mental command to her Zanpakutou Spirit, telling her to ready herself. Her cup was already dropped and both swords held in a relaxed state much like Shunsui. As his blow came down onto Pepe, Misato came underneath Raiden’s left side. She lazily stabbed her right wooden sword, the longer one, forwards; Upwards to connect to Pepe’s basket and into his right crossed leg. She moved in conjunction with Raiden, positioning and striking so to stay out of his way. They fought together once before, and if Misato was to change Bya’s mind she’d show him he was wrong. She would show Raiden he was no murderer. But for now they had something bigger than that in front of them.
Uuuuwwwwwweeehehehehehehe, so they really did want to toy with his l o v e ƪ(♥ﻬ♥)ʃ! Of course, a body so deliciously pure and plump as Pepe's... He was not surprised that the shinigami, so jealous as they were of the glorious Quincy, would love him, their envy driving them to such violent methods. It was only to be expected that such creatures would grasp at the heels of the perfection that so boldly escaped them. Indeed, one shinigami had attempted to dodge his arrow, and had headed towards him. Oh what fun! Next, famous Captain Kuchiki seemingly failed to heed his own advice. How shrewd that the captain had detected, somehow, the nature of Pepe's Schrift. Yet simultaneously, in an attempt to save his comrades, he had struck all of his arrows with the petals of his zanpakuto... Yes... *huerurgh* It was time. Senbonzakura would feel... *hrrnph* Pepe's... *hrrngh*...

|°3°|
He activated his Schrift, and as he did so, something curious began to happen. Senbonzakura... Fell in love~ with Pepe. And of course, being so infatuated with him, the Zanpakuto would switch allegiance to his command, its very soul now bound to Pepe, who could command the sword. And thus, he had the perfect defense for the young man who was now behind him, trying to penetrate (๑°⌓°๑) his defences. The storm of petals from Kuchiki's shikai would double upwards at blinding speed, and head straight towards Raiden, aiming to shred him to pieces. If he wanted some sugar from Pepe... He would get it. Another one came at him, a little girl. She tried to shaft (*゚ェ゚*) him! Oh such love, all aimed straight at Pepe. He was able to swing his staff, knocking aside her zanpakuto, and flip backwards through the air upon his basket, out of range.
He then began to pepper the whole lot of them with arrows, suppressing them, waiting to see what they would try next. For Byakuya in particular, his own zanpakuto would fold around in a graceful ribbon after the attack towards Raiden, looping around in a heart shape before writhing towards the Taicho.
Name: SCHRIFT: THE LOVE Class: Schrift Tier: -- Type: Binding Range: 100m Description: Pepe can cause anything that has been touched by his arrows to fall in Love with him. This makes them fight for him, effectively giving him full control of them. This even functions on weapons with souls and such, for example zanpakuto, causing them to turn on their wielders.
Arata examined the situation before him. He scowled slightly as the captain admonished Raiden. Of course his actions were inexcusable but was now really the time? Threatening to kill him if he stepped out of line... It was obvious that Raiden wasn't a traitor. He had been pushed too far by some ill-informed shinigami that didn't know he had a temper and was moody. He had to not get distracted or drawn into the quibbling, but still he wasn't a hundred percent sure what was exactly going on. There were no immediate, serious casualties yet. Someone, at some point, would have to deal with the army down below, but if this Quincy had taken out a captain he was a much more imminent threat.
Captain Kuchiki seemed to know something about the Quincy the rest of them didn't. He supposed that years of fighting would likely give you battle instincts, or something. He was right to be concerned, as it was then that the quincy launched several arrows at them. Arata wasn't sure how to respond, his instincts drove him to defend himself and Kaori from the arrows headed towards them. But before he could react, Byakuya had already intercepted the arrows with senbonzakura. Arata scratched his head. The captain had warned against touching the arrows, and then... Of course he touched them with his own zanpakuto. He got the feeling this wouldn't end well. A single quincy able to hold his own against multiple shinigami of captain-strength.
It wasn't long before it became apparent what devilry the quincy possessed, as somehow, Byakuya's zanpakuto began speeding towards Raiden, who had moved in to attack Pepe. Arata's eyes contracted. He stepped towards Raiden, his Shunpo carrying him the entire distance between them in an enormous bound, stretching Arata's ability to step to the max. He exited his step, and shoved Raiden out of the way, before trying himself to escape the blades. He was only partially successful. His left arm and leg were both shredded by the countless blades of Senbonzakura. He cried out in pain, and went down, crashing into the building some ten meters below, blood soaking his hakama.
"Idiot..." he croaked at Raiden, before his head fell back.
By threading with Arata you are giving permission for his Clerical Anti-Kill Clause to be in place. If you do not PM to withdraw permission (and to allow Arata to withdraw from the thread) before replying to any post made by Arata, the clause will be in place.
Preaching love like that, not once stopping to consider the concept. Not once realizing it was not love, but lust and greed. The desire to own someone.
Raiden's eyes momentarily met Misato's before the attack. Soulless, green eyes that had lost the shine to them. Matte and dead, tired, exhausted even. Not once did his facial expression change, it was cold. A neutral guise of surpressed emotions. But one thing obvious, that those were the eyes of a man ready to die. A martyr whom sought nothing but a worthy blade to fall upon. The pink petals came from him, almost ready to kill him. And he would accept it, gladly so. His zanpakutou would still deal a tremendous amount of damage due to the velocity and force behind his strike, even if the life was ripped away from him.
But conviction turned to surprise. And the last he noticed, with a near sentient mind, was how Arata got hit. He left his sword, and moved in to grab Arata and soften his landing. His feet hit the ground. And concrete exploded underneath him. Before he disappeared completely, aiming to take the child to safety. "Don't hurt yourself for me," he grunted as he placed Arata down on a skyscraper not too far off. His eyes displayed emotion for the first time in months. Sympathy, but better yet, anger. He slammed his foot down on the ground and pulled up a sheet of concrete, infusing it with his reiatsu to shield himself and Arata from the arrows.
He glanced back at the scene. Leaning forward and returning back to the scene. Right as his sword hit the ground with another explosion of concrete. His hand gripped around the handle of the blade, the sickening reiatsu hissing into existence as he uttered the word "bankai".
"Doku Ryuu," he grunted as he moved upwards again, holding up the blade. Anger and sympathy were replaced. His eyes were now clearly readable. And his mind was far off already. Not only the eyes, but his reiatsu flaring, his body language explained but one thing. The undiluted and uncensored intent to massacre. No one hurt his friends and was allowed to walk away from it.
Another overflowing step caused Raiden to propel upwards, swinging his sword in an arc towards the quincy, a massive shockwave of poisenous reiatsu surging for him.(Overwhelming power, tier VII)
And another followed almost immediately. (Overwhelming power, tier VI)
By then, he would have reached the quincy, where Raiden flipped in the air, to bring the katana down on the back of Pepe's neck, aiming to split that disgusting head from the bloated torso. His teeth audibly gritting, poisenous breath slowly exhaled through the bandages infront of his mouth.
--cooldowns-- Overwhelming power tier VII - 4 posts Overwhelming power tier VI - 3 posts
--actives-- Overwhelming power: This buff is an incomplete cap left on the compression of power, causing for explosive torrents of reiatsu to surge around the user. This form of ability causes reiatsu sensing abilities to scramble when in the presence of the user, and also gives their overall speed, and strength a 3x boost (not effecting steps). The prime perk of this form is to allow the wielder to release waves of energy with their sword swings of varying power (Power of each would be named on use) and increase the pressure of their reiatsu twofold.
Name: Earthern shield Class: Reiryoku Techniques Tier: III Type: Defense Range: Personal Description: A wall, or a personal cocoon, of concrete, earth or whatever the user is standing on, slides upwards from the ground and shields from tier III physical or energy. An aestethic stomp on the ground is required.
Name: Body fling Class: Human stepping Type: Stepping Range: up to 100 meters Tier: I Description: Focussing on the reiatsu under his feet, he propels himself towards given direction with explosive speed. Causing the ground to shatter underneath his point of start. He marks the destination with a faint glow from his reiatsu as a sense of direction. This can also be used in shinigami form. There does not have to a glow of reiatsu when he uses his zanpakutou as anchor for this technique. Various of these spots can appear at the same time to chain up the stepping technique or cause confusion on a target.
Name: Shunpo (Flash Steps) Class: Stepping Type: Stepping Range: N/A Tier: I Description: A movement technique that allows the user to move extremely quickly over short distances. The focal point that determines the basis of this technique is speed. Therefore what determines the level of skill in a user for Shunpo is best characterized by how fast one can get from A to B in the least amount of steps. Auto-gained for Shinigami at ML.
--passives-- Overwhelming power: This buff is an incomplete cap left on the compression of power, causing for explosive torrents of reiatsu to surge around the user. This form of ability causes reiatsu sensing abilities to scramble when in the presence of the user, and also gives their overall speed, and strength a 3x boost (not effecting steps).

Name: Frost queen's claim Class: Offensive melee item Tier: V Range: Personal Description: As the arrancar, Fryst Dronning tore off Raiden's arm, she soon after felt regret, and re-gifted his arm through ice and reiryoku. Hebikiba immediatly took sovereignity of the reiryoku in the gifted arm, and, so, giving it special properties. Ability: The skin around the blade shreds open and reveals the ice, wich reforms into a poisenous ice-blade. This blade is bankai-tier and deals tier V strikes. This blade is channeled through with Raiden's reiatsu and thus, works with the poison sting and Caustic poison passive. This can only happen once per thread, when the arm is released and destroyed, it regenerates in five posts. When it is sealed and destroyed, it regenerates withing two posts. Cooldown/Drawback: The arm has shikai durability in its sealed state. This item persists through, is usable and can be activated during bankai. --RELEASED - TIER V ARM--
Name: Kasei sōda doku (Caustic poison) Class: Bankai power Type: Passive/Offensive/Supplemental Range: Close Tier: III-VII Description: With overwhelming power, Raiden has gotten an even more poisenous reiatsu, the blade's length being only a meter, the poison stretches out to a length of three meters. Upon contact, the poison will eat through someone's natural defenses, such as Hierro or Blut Veine for 2 posts, and wound them. The same effects count when Raiden sends out a wave of energy with his blade. By channeling his reiatsu more thoroughly, wich he can only do momentarily, the poison is upped to, maximum a tier VII attack. This level of power varies at will. For a tier VII attack, having instant execution, this tech goes on a 4 post cooldown, being reduced to a tier III for the duration. If activated, the strength of the blow is displayed. There's still a two post corrosion on it. If the tech is activated, the cooldown is synchronous to the activated tier. This does not put the tier III passive on cooldown. The auglentation can also only last for two posts.
One or two negative advantages(for Raiden): The same spot has to be cut twice to make a hole in the defenses, then it moves up of the effect with zero advantages. Zero advantages: One's defenses have been destroyed after two posts, but no damage was taken. Immediatly going for the same spot when the defenses are broken gives an opening, cutting right through. One advantage: After one post, the poison has already eaten through one's natural defenses, causing medium to severe wounds. Two or more advantages: Upon contact, someone's armor is completely destroyed, the poison has the chance to destroy and cut off a limb. Cutting with the blade itself is almost certainly a loss of limb. Poison keeps eating away for two posts.
Name: Kasei sōda chi (Caustic blood) Class: Bankai power Type: Passive/Supplemental/Poison Range: Close Tier: III-VII Description: Raiden's blood has gotten caustic traits, this turning it a mix of black/green. When Raiden's blood makes contact with an enemy, it has the same effect as Kasei sōda doku, burning through their shielding. This passive follows the Kasei sōda doku's activation. Putting it short, if Kasei sōda doku has been activated as a tier V, this passive becomes an augmentation for the duration of Kasei sōda doku's activated state, as a tier V aswell. As Kasei sōda doku, the activated version can only be kept up for two posts, before returning back to the tier III technique. The cooldown does however not follow the ones of Kasei sōda doku, meaning it has a cooldown respective to the tier activated. Note that this also makes the blood thicker and reduces bloodloss.
One or two negative advantages(for Raiden.): The same spot has to be cut twice to make a hole in the defenses, then it moves up of the effect with zero advantages.

KUCHIKI BYAKUYA . Sixth division TAICHOU . HEAD OF THE NOBLE KUCHIKI CLAN YOU THINK YOURSELF MY EQUAL WHEN IN TRUTH YOU AREN'T EVEN CLOSE TO MY LEVEL [keepkeep]
Just as Byakuya had expected, actually, Byakuya was no fool and each attack he did had a purpose. Unfortunately for this over-inflated egotistical Quincy, He didn't realize this. Immediately after the Quincy 'took control' over his Zanpakuto, Byakuya's hand raised. With him already preoccupied by the other two Shinigami, His eyes wouldn't be able to stay on Byakuya... Besides his control over Senbonzakura was crap and as such he wouldn't be able to move it as fast as it normally would go. Byakuya's Kido was among the most powerful in the entire Soul Society, able to produce the full effects of any Kido without the incantation "Bakudo #91, Hyakubi Saikin" From as far away as he was it would be practically impossible with the two attackers and Senbonzakura swirling around for the Quincy to hear him, as such his chance of dodging or forming a defense against his attack was next to impossible. Byakuya didn't need the incantation and thus the Bakudo would be at the full power of a 90's level Kidou. The Quincy's first mistake was expecting his control to be able to extend to anything outside of himself here. Even if his Zanpakuto was under the command of the Quincy for the moment, it would not last forever. Once again Byakuya grabbed Kaori around the waist, waiting for the petals to be near him before vanishing behind the flurry. His own Reiatsu now completely suppressed as he reappeared roughly 50 meters behind the Quincy "Your first mistake was thinking that attack was meant to stop you, your second was thinking I hadn't already prepared backup."
The Bakudo had been released while he had been being attacked, and as such he wouldn't of had time to form a defense. And since the Petals had then been launched towards himself in the opposite direction, They wouldn't be able to come to his aid against it. Besides, even Byakuya's Zanpakuto was unlikely to withstand a 90's level Kidou in just Shikai, Especially if it was at full power.
-- Actives -- Name: Bakudo #91 Hyakubai Saikin (Hundredfold Golden Restrain) Class: Kido Type: Binding Tier: VII Range: 100 Meters Incantation: Oh great King whose blessings I seek! Thou who seeks the repentant man shall look no further! Your well-deserved wrath shall be extended one-hundredfold! Description: The caster's hands are enveloped in golden reiatsu, and from their fingertips shoot ten thick beams of light. Each beam of light then splits into ten thinner light beams. Each of these one-hundred beams have massive binding properties that can pin even the mightiest of foes down. Hyakubai Saikin requires the utmost concentration, so much that even Taichō class Shinigami would have great difficulty moving their hands without the Bakudō wavering or snapping. A foolish caster may even find themselves bound by casting the Kidō.
Name: Reiatsu Suppression Class: Reiatsu Control Tier: VI Type: Binding Range: 50m with no fall off Duration Remaining: 4 Posts Description: The power to manifest your reiatsu pressure around you, forcing your enemies to their knees with your substantial reiatsu, and even rendering them unconscious with enough advantages.

[attr="class","aritext"] Atara closed in shoving Raiden aside while getting caught up in Byakuya’s Zanpakutou. Surely this wasn’t a part of some master plan. Byakuya wasn’t bold enough to outright kill Raiden like this or could he expect Raiden to dodge. Misato wasn’t fully aware of Byakuya’s Zanpakutou being under Pepe’s control though something definitely felt off. Right now there wasn’t time for thinking about that. With Raiden pushed aside and Atara caught Misato created a foothold, air-walking, then pushed off simultaneously. She Flashed Stepped away, choosing not to follow up with an attack from Pepe’s parry, while also using Iron Air. A weak shockwave created from Iron Air would push Atara out and away from Senbonzakura’s tiny blades.
A Bakudo shot towards Pepe might hold him down for just a brief moment, however, Misato needed to do something about this situation. A wounded Atara quickly came with an explosion from Raiden. ”Tch!” Sharp air hissed passed clamping teeth. That energy was like his Bankai. Of course, he was Bankai happy. Yet, though her face remained neutral, her heart smirked. Raiden’s aura wasn’t one of pure rage, but passion. Yeah, time to kick this fight up a notch! Still dashing backwards Misato focused underneath Pepe and all around. Damn basket needs to go! Dragon Explode, multiple small explosions formed all around Pepe just a few feet away, moving inwards allowing only one way to escape – Towards Raiden. Though weak, Misato’s plan wasn’t to harm Pepe merely distract him.
Her true goal was Senbonzakura. A Flash Step landed her nearby Byakuya. ”Can you take back control?” A quick set of words for only him to hear when she vanished once again, landing near Senbonzakura extending right arm towards and focusing her Dragon:Magic – Sharp Heavy Force in all directions surrounding the heart shape moving inward. This was to act as a bind on the entirety of Byakuya’s Shikai. Come on Raiden, keep him distracted! She thought to herself, forcing the binding field smaller and smaller. Her plan, since when did Misato ever have a plan? Well, maybe something to do with a bit of trickery here.
Notes: Dragon Explode counts as a Reiryoku Technique due to Misato being in Shinigami Form. Dragon Explode was used as a Tier II.
Name: Dragon Explode Class: Human Powers [Shikai] Tier: II-V Type: Offensive Range: 0-50 Meters Description: Allows Misato to ignite her Reiatsu, causing an explosion. This is most often done from the residual Reiatsu left over by her attacks. The explosion travels at Cero speeds in either a cone or 360 radius.
Name: Dragon:Magic - Sharp Heavy Force Class: Weapon Skill [Specialized, Kenatsu Prodigy] Tier: IV Type: Offensive/Binding Range: 0-80 Meters Description: Without physical motion required, Misato sharpens her will around her. Sharpened spiritual pressure, looking like condensed fumes making the location hazy, coming down wherever Misato desires. This pressure will cause things targeted to become inflicted with a bind with a mix of concussive and cutting damage added into. Misato can force a target, or targeted location/object/technique, to be flung in any direction at Cero speeds. Maximum number of target(s) is however many are within a, maximum, 15 meter diameter. Technique holds for maximum of five posts unless otherwise stated. Requires no Cooldown due to Kenatsu Prodigy Perk.
So I will take this burden on and become the holy one
Things were moving quickly, and if not for Kaori's own ability to keep up with events moving at such an accelerated pace, she would have been lost. But she had her orders, and she had a duty to uphold. Byakuya had commanded her to study the Quincy, so the female allowed herself to stay out of the fight, for the moment. She would jump in if one of her comrades was in danger, but right now, it seemed prioritizing the Quincy's unique abilities and studying them was the best course of action.
She even fought the urge to provide aid to Arata when he was hit. Raiden was quicker to get to the male than Kaori could have been, and he created a shield around the two, presumably to make sure the male was alright. Emerging only seconds later, the male exploded from the hastily erected shelter and unleashed his Bankai as he attacked. Misato reacted well, trying to force the Quincy into the path of Raiden's rage and anger.
Kaori sheathed her Zanpakutou. Until they could find a way to neutralize the Quincy's arrows that forced their weapons against them, the female didn't want to risk losing Byakko's allegiance. While not the strongest Zanpakutou in the area, there was no denying that her attacks were detrimental and meant to disable. Instead, another sword formed in her hands, made out of her own reiryoku. The weapon was shaped exactly like her Zanpakutou, but this one was a lot more flexible than her Shikai, even if it wasn't always as powerful.
The female flash stepped away from her captain's side, instead closing in on the Quincy. She kept her distance from him and Raiden, hoping he would be too preoccupied with Raiden's physical blows and the oncoming kidou Byakuya had just cast to even have time to worry about her. "Drink from the overflowing cup. Sate your thirst on the cursed wine of the gods, and blanket yourself in white funeral chrysanthemums. Bakudou Fifty Seven, Kitai Rakka." A cloud spread across the battlefield, and white petals started blanketing its surface. Her team mates would remain unaffected if they were hit, but if any landed on the Quincy, he would suddenly start to feel a lot heavier than his already pudgy form otherwise felt.
Hopefully, her attack would give Raiden the edge he needed to be able to land a lethal blow on their opponent.
Remember I am human and I'm bound to sing this song
{Spoiler}Name: Tenpen Touken (転変刀剣, Vicissitude Blade) Class: Weapon Skill Tier: II-IV Type: Offensive Range: 10 meters Description: Allows the user to create any kind of weapon out of reiryoku. This ability also allows for the complete manipulation of said reiatsu, to change the form of the weapon. For instance, if the user so desired, he/she could turn a sword into a battle axe, or a rod shaped design into a flexible whip. The speed of the transformation is dependent on the tier used at the time (bala speed for tier II, half bala for tier III, cero speed for tier IV). Alternatively, the user can use his/her own weapon as a catalyst and add reiryoku onto a weapon itself, for instance, to extend the reach of the user's weapon. This ability cannot be used in conjunction with Augmented Counterattacking Strike. Currently using this at a tier III.
Name: Bakudo #57 Kitai Rakka (Curious Falling Petals) Class: Kido Type: Binding Tier: IV Range: Long Incantation: Drink from the overflowing cup! Sate your thirst on the cursed wine of the gods, and blanket yourself in white funeral chrysanthemums! Description: A large white orb of reiatsu appears above the caster and target, then explodes into a flurry of hundreds of white petals. The petals slowly float downwards, harmless in appearance and reiatsu signature. However, Kitai Rakka's true power is shown when the petals make contact with any surface. The stored reiatsu in the petals is released in the form of weight, and the feather-like petals now exert 100 kilograms of pressure each. They blanket over the target, crushing them with their combined mass.
Uweehehehehehe. Pepe could feel it. The heat. The fire. The burning passion! The loving cry of Raiden as his friend was mutilated by the blades of Senbonakura. A thrumming note thumped its way through Pepe's plump little form, as he watched blood sprinkle through the air, Misato's efforts not enough to stop the nimble movements of the petals biting into his form. The shinigami were quick to react, however. Raiden was coming down hard, with an enormous offense it appeared, huge waves of poison rolling out from before him. Pepe knew that those waves of energy would hurt even him, and as such, he gathered a whole load of Reishi together, and formed a huge blue shield before him, with a heart, and pair of wings emblazoned upon the front. The first flick of poison spattered off, spraying everywhere. The shield, now weakened, shattered upon the impact of the second blow, reishi and poison flying everywhere.
However it was at that moment that Pepe was struck by not one but two binds of kido. So, the shinigami were into this type of thing, eh!? Well, Pepe had never expected them to be so... Lewd, binding him like this. However, to a heavenly being of L O V E ~ such as himself, such paltry things were not nearly strong enough to hold him down. There would be a bright flash of heavenly light, as Pepe exploded his reiatsu out, with enough strength to destroy both binds, as well as the third bind that had been placed upon Byakuya's zanpakuto. The zanpakuto looped around, this time aiming to strike Kaori, however, as preoccupied as he had been, Pepe didn't notice Raiden until it was almost too late.
The blade came whistling down towards him, and he swivelled around upon his basket, rocking off balance as he shrieked in a girlish voice, diving for cover. He was spared. Mostly. Pepe's left leg was caught by Raiden's sword, and it sliced straight through, leaving a large cut spraying blood all over Pepe's nice white robes. He shrieked, and as he tumbled downwards, he shot an arrow at close range, aimed straight at Raiden.
This was it. These lecherous shinigami had pushed him too far.
"And your mistake, was thinking that your hatred... Could overpower my love!" Pepe said.
And he activated his Quincy: Vollastandig. As he did so, a holy light would infuse the area, his pillar spreading outwards to engulf the other combatants. If Captain Kuchiki seemed to have so little faith in the power of love... Well, Pepe would have to change his mind on that issue. By force.
As the light died down, the enormous wave of reishi from the release would fling Raiden away from Pepe, who now fluttered on sacred wings of holy light, shaped like hearts, in his Vollstandig form. The Quincy Vollstandig healed the quincy, purging him of Raiden's impure poison. He had been careless, and could not let something like that happen again. Nor would he need to.
"Captain Kuuuuuuuuuuchikiiiii!" he said in a sing-song voice. Yes, Byakuya had been the one chosen. Chosen by his L O V E. "Be a dear, and exterminate these shinigami for me, will you?" Pepe asked, with a pleasant sing-song. The captain's Zanpakuto circled Pepe; he would retain control of it. Just in case... Just in case they tried any funny business. But he flew up high to watch over the battle that would ensue.
{Techniques}Name: Shield Class: Reishi Techniques Tier: V Type: Defensive Range: 100m Description: Forms an enormous shield from reishi that deflects any attack outwards in all directions, causing possible repercussions for the opponent or their allies.
Name: SCHRIFT: THE LOVE (Vollstandig) Class: Schrift Tier: -- Type: Binding Range: 100m Description: Pepe can cause anything that has been touched by his arrows to fall in Love with him. This makes them fight for him, effectively giving him full control of them. This even functions on weapons with souls and such, for example zanpakuto, causing them to turn on their wielders.
Upon activating his Vollstandig, a single individual is chosen, and is affected by Pepe's love, falling in love with him, and turning to fight for his side.
His blade landed, the attack hit home. And the scent of rotting and decaying flesh filled the air. Good. While the quincy wasn't dead or dying, it was a start. And it showed one valuable lesson. Pepe felt pain. And Pepe bled. That was enough for Raiden to renew his efforts, an arrow smacking down in his thigh. A grunt followed, but he was so far beyond the point of being obstructed by pain now. An obstacle he had torn down the instant he entered bankai. All he felt now was nothing but rage. His hand moved up to grasp the bandages on his face, aiming to end the fight and leave nothing for Pepe's allies to bury. Eaten up by the corrosive breath that was Doku Ryuu's.
He was, however, knocked back by the sudden shockwave. Smacking through a skyscraper, however, the instant he touched the first concrete barrier, his hand smacked against it, a mark of reiatsu appearing. He managed to recover after another two destroyed walls and turned in mid-air. Touching a supporting barrier briefly before it imploded under the force of his body fling. And he appeared on the mark he had left but a moment ago.
And immediately pulled into a Shunpo afterwards. He appeared infront of Pepe, clenching his teeth on the bandages and tearing them open, before unleashing a devastating roar, along with the billowing corrosive poison directed immediately at his face. The arcane marks, the bulging green veins visible on his face.
--cooldowns-- Overwhelming power tier VII - 4 posts Overwhelming power tier VI - 3 posts
--actives-- Name: Doku ryū no hōkō(Poison Dragon's roar) Class: Bankai power Type: Offensive/poison Range: 100 meters Tier: VII Description: By pulling down the bandages infront of his face, Raiden unleashes a devastating attack, cero speed. He roars loudly, and sends forth a poisenous barrage, similair to a dragon's fire breath. The sheer sound of the roar is enough to pop someone's eardrums within a vicinity of 25 meters. The texture of this reiatsu is smoke-like and looks black, with green outlines. It has a vile smell to it, and upon contact, it starts eating away anything in it's way. Ofcourse, this is very painful. This technique is able to eat away limbs or entire bodies. Due to this attack's chemical traits, it recreates the acid constantly by fueling on an enemy's reishi, meaning it can aswell as hurt people, dispell binding or offensive kidou or any other techniques or items. To stop the acid, the technique afftected has to be dispelled or the infected area severed, the limb affected has to be severed. This technique has a cooldown of four posts.
After one post: This acid can eat away up to one hand After two posts: this extends to the length of an entire forearm Three posts: Equals the loss of an afflicted limb. After four posts: the poison will have eaten away enough of the afflicted target that it will threaten vital organs.
Note: This table is purely to give an exemple at wich speed this technique eats away at one. The place afflicted is the hand. If it is the shoulder is hit, for exemple, you're already in danger of having vital organs being eaten away after one post.
Name: Body fling Class: Human stepping Type: Stepping Range: up to 100 meters Tier: I Description: Focussing on the reiatsu under his feet, he propels himself towards given direction with explosive speed. Causing the ground to shatter underneath his point of start. He marks the destination with a faint glow from his reiatsu as a sense of direction. This can also be used in shinigami form. There does not have to a glow of reiatsu when he uses his zanpakutou as anchor for this technique. Various of these spots can appear at the same time to chain up the stepping technique or cause confusion on a target.
Name: Shunpo (Flash Steps) Class: Stepping Type: Stepping Range: N/A Tier: I Description: A movement technique that allows the user to move extremely quickly over short distances. The focal point that determines the basis of this technique is speed. Therefore what determines the level of skill in a user for Shunpo is best characterized by how fast one can get from A to B in the least amount of steps. Auto-gained for Shinigami at ML.
--passives-- Overwhelming power: This buff is an incomplete cap left on the compression of power, causing for explosive torrents of reiatsu to surge around the user. This form of ability causes reiatsu sensing abilities to scramble when in the presence of the user, and also gives their overall speed, and strength a 3x boost (not effecting steps). The prime perk of this form is to allow the wielder to release waves of energy with their sword swings of varying power (Power of each would be named on use) and increase the pressure of their reiatsu twofold.
Name: Frost queen's claim Class: Offensive melee item Tier: V Range: Personal Description: As the arrancar, Fryst Dronning tore off Raiden's arm, she soon after felt regret, and re-gifted his arm through ice and reiryoku. Hebikiba immediatly took sovereignity of the reiryoku in the gifted arm, and, so, giving it special properties. Ability: The skin around the blade shreds open and reveals the ice, wich reforms into a poisenous ice-blade. This blade is bankai-tier and deals tier V strikes. This blade is channeled through with Raiden's reiatsu and thus, works with the poison sting and Caustic poison passive. This can only happen once per thread, when the arm is released and destroyed, it regenerates in five posts. When it is sealed and destroyed, it regenerates withing two posts. Cooldown/Drawback: The arm has shikai durability in its sealed state. This item persists through, is usable and can be activated during bankai. --RELEASED - TIER V ARM--
Name: Kasei sōda doku (Caustic poison) Class: Bankai power Type: Passive/Offensive/Supplemental Range: Close Tier: III-VII Description: With overwhelming power, Raiden has gotten an even more poisenous reiatsu, the blade's length being only a meter, the poison stretches out to a length of three meters. Upon contact, the poison will eat through someone's natural defenses, such as Hierro or Blut Veine for 2 posts, and wound them. The same effects count when Raiden sends out a wave of energy with his blade. By channeling his reiatsu more thoroughly, wich he can only do momentarily, the poison is upped to, maximum a tier VII attack. This level of power varies at will. For a tier VII attack, having instant execution, this tech goes on a 4 post cooldown, being reduced to a tier III for the duration. If activated, the strength of the blow is displayed. There's still a two post corrosion on it. If the tech is activated, the cooldown is synchronous to the activated tier. This does not put the tier III passive on cooldown. The auglentation can also only last for two posts.
One or two negative advantages(for Raiden): The same spot has to be cut twice to make a hole in the defenses, then it moves up of the effect with zero advantages. Zero advantages: One's defenses have been destroyed after two posts, but no damage was taken. Immediatly going for the same spot when the defenses are broken gives an opening, cutting right through. One advantage: After one post, the poison has already eaten through one's natural defenses, causing medium to severe wounds. Two or more advantages: Upon contact, someone's armor is completely destroyed, the poison has the chance to destroy and cut off a limb. Cutting with the blade itself is almost certainly a loss of limb. Poison keeps eating away for two posts.
Name: Kasei sōda chi (Caustic blood) Class: Bankai power Type: Passive/Supplemental/Poison Range: Close Tier: III-VII Description: Raiden's blood has gotten caustic traits, this turning it a mix of black/green. When Raiden's blood makes contact with an enemy, it has the same effect as Kasei sōda doku, burning through their shielding. This passive follows the Kasei sōda doku's activation. Putting it short, if Kasei sōda doku has been activated as a tier V, this passive becomes an augmentation for the duration of Kasei sōda doku's activated state, as a tier V aswell. As Kasei sōda doku, the activated version can only be kept up for two posts, before returning back to the tier III technique. The cooldown does however not follow the ones of Kasei sōda doku, meaning it has a cooldown respective to the tier activated. Note that this also makes the blood thicker and reduces bloodloss.
