Tsubine (Vizard)

Name: Tsubine Zanifir von Zarkonheinz III

Gender: Male

Age: 35-45

True Age: 900+

Appearance:




Tsubine is 6'1, 175 lbs, and an athletic build. He has white hair and light blue eyes. His outfit now is not the Haori and Shihakkso. It is now a long red leather trenchcoat with either a black fitted shirt or no shirt at all when off duty. While on duty, he has a variety of clothes. His main outfit is a long black jacket with ivory-colored designs and a crimson interior lining. Underneath that, he wears a red suit with either red or black pants with straps on the legs (Two on each) that hold small knives and such. He also wears large black boots. His second outfit is a black trenchcoat with ivory designs and an ivory interior lining. Underneath it, there is a black shirt with square ivory buttons. The pants are like the ones in his first outfit, only with a square locking system rather than an oval one. Both of them are hooded. His final outfit is an ivory-on-black version of the black-on-ivory version.



Personality: As a Human: Tsubine is a bit charismatic. He is known not to be of a low social class, but rather he is known to associate himself with the Close Districts. He can be dense at times, but he also can be sly and cunning. Tsubine is not afraid to draw his blade against an enemy, no matter who it is. Also, he is not afraid to die.
As a Man: Tsubine is known to drink a bottle of vodka in a few hours, and barely have a buzz. His reasons for drinking is unknown. He's actually a gentleman and will attack men he deems "scum". The "scum" are the drunk guys who hit on girls and won't leave them alone. However, you'll almost never see Tsubine at a bar, but rather the few galas the Close Districts have.
As a Captain:Tsubine holds his subordinates to a high standard. By that, I mean that he holds the ones he deems worthy enough to be his subordinates to a high standard. He'll take them out drinking or on patrols he's ordered to do. The others...he's like a drill sergeant to them. He has a strict routine for them. In Human terminology, they are treated like "New Marines on Paris Island". Tsubine has been known to slam his "insubordinates" into walls to get them to "man the hell up". For the insubordinates he has some respect for, he will allow them the "honor" of doing his paperwork for him.

Zankpakuto

Un-released State: He carries it on his back. The scabbard will disintegrate as he draws it. It is made of his reitsu, so he can reform it when he wants to.

Call out Phrase: Split them

Shikai State: Known as "Tsume Ude" (Claw Arm). Tsubine's arms become enveloped in black armor that moves as if it were his own skin. The armor is still metallic and protective, but it loses no mobility like any other armor would. Each arm has a set of claws with three blades on them about a foot-and-a-half long and always extremely sharp. His shoulders are now protected and covered in the same material as his arms. For more description, look at the Bankai.


Shikai Powers:
Energy attacks: Tsume Ude's main power is its cero-like bursts. The bursts are fired from the hand and are charged via the red circles on the back of his hands. They are fast and deadly and crimson in color. The attacks are also known to be able to change paths midflight, though only slightly.

Claws: The claws on Tsubine's arms are razor-sharp and are kept folded backwards on his arms. However, they do have a special ability. They are wire-guided by a "chain" of Tsubine's reitsu, much like Hiho Zabimaru's links are connected. However, they are controlled via Tsubine's mind, and not a handle or something of that sort.

Speed: Tsubine's speed is increased due to the increase of concentrated Reitsu on the back of his shoulders.

Reitsu Shield: Tsubine can summon two small reitsu shields on his forearms to protect him. They can only be used to absorb attacks and will eventually be overwhelmed and explode, which Tsubine can use as an attack.





Bankai State: Known as "Shinkou Tsume Kouchou" (Crimson Claw Armor). Tsubine's entire body is now covered in the same material as his Shikai.


Bankai Powers:

Enhanced Energy attacks: Tsume Ude's main power is its cero-like bursts. The bursts are fired from the hand and are charged via the red circles on the back of his hands. They are fast and deadly and crimson in color. The attacks are also known to be able to change paths midflight, though only slightly. These are now increased in speed and power.

Enhanced Claws: The claws on Tsubine's arms are razor-sharp and are kept folded backwards on his arms. However, they do have a special ability. They are wire-guided by a "chain" of Tsubine's reitsu, much like Hiho Zabimaru's links are connected. However, they are controlled via Tsubine's mind, and not a handle or something of that sort. The claws are now much faster and the range in which he can attack is also doubled. He can also now fire shotgun-like bursts of energy from them.

Enhanced Speed: Tsubine's speed is increased due to the increase of concentrated Reitsu on the back of his shoulders and his back. Also, he no longer has to "Step" on the air to look like he is flying as he has enough concentrated Reitsu to actually make him fly. His feet are also faster, though this is mainly due to the fact that he has a wheel on each of them.

Reitsu Bubble: Tsubine can now create a 360-degree bubble of Reitsu similar to that of his Reitsu shields. When it explodes, it removes all traces of Reitsu around it for a brief moment in time (5-10 seconds), albeit what was inside of the bubble.

Vascud Crisis: This is the ultimate energy attack of Shinkou Tsume Kouchou. It releases a large energy burst that is highly destructive, uncontrolled, and wide. It is orange and yellow in color. The blast's range varies on the climate and reitsu concentration.

Seven Swell: This is the ultimate attack of Shinkou Tsume Kouchou. Tsubine will HAVE to seal his Zanpakutou afterwards, and he will be exhausted and near death or passed out. The attack releases a massive amount of pure reishi and reitsu, creating a massive explosion similar to that of a hydrogen bomb. However, the aftermath will cause what looks like layers of various colors emanating from the center. However, this isn't its main ability. When it explodes, there will be zero reishi in the area, causing all Zanpakutous to become sealed once again if you are in the blast zone. Also, no kidou or cero/balas would be usable since there is no reishi in the area. However, Sonido and Shunpo are able to be used for unknown reasons. Tsubine also has to say an incantation (Which is very corny):



History:
Born in 1172 in modern-day Pripyat, Ukraine to a high-ranking noble family, Tsubine von Zarkonheinz was not the Prince Charming of this story. Taught at a very young age how to kill, Tsubine was chosen to represent his area in the upcoming Crusade. When he was only fifteen, a group of bandits kidnapped his younger sister, Ana. Tsubine took off after them, armed with a sabre. He caught up with them and savagely tortured them, cutting them into little bits. Legend says he came back, his little sister in shock behind him on his horse, covered in so much blood, there wasn't a bit of his body that was not crimson. What is known is that his sister never spoke a word after that, and Tsubine never mentions the incident.

When he was eighteen, he set off to join the Pope's army and joined with nearby Templar Knights. When he joined the main force, he was under the command of Robert de Sable. They marched into Jerusalem by the time he was twenty. By that time, most of the people in the massive caravan were dead due to starvation or disease. Tsubine arrived in Jerusalem in time to see the Ark of the Covenant being removed. He was with Robert de Sable when an Hashashin attacked them. Nobody was harmed, but the Templars there knew of the Hashashin threat now.

Within a few weeks, Tsubine was transferred to nearby Acre, the main base for the Crusades. There, the same Hashashin attacked a Templar there. However, on the way to Masayaf, the suspected base of the Hashashins, Tsubine was silently murdered by an unknown assailant.

While he spent little time dead in the human world, he spent a good bit of time in the Close Districts. He arrived in District Three and was raised by a sub-subsection of the Kuchiki household. In a rare occasion, Tsubine met the young Byakuya Kuchiki and Ginrei Kuchiki. By the time that Byakuya would be the new Sixth Division Captain, Tsubine was already in the Soul Reaper academy. By the time of his third year, many of the divisions were looking at Tsubine, as it was unknown what he excelled the most at.

When he graduated, Tsubine was sent to the Thirteenth Division, as the third seat. He looked up to lieutenant Kaien Shiba out of anyone there other than Byakuya. When Tsubine learned Shikai, he trained with Kaien daily and eventually made his own version of Nejibana with his Zanpakutou's shapeshifting ability.

When Kaien was killed, Tsubine was the first person the Captains looked at for Kaien's replacement. He took the position and stayed there until a fateful day.
Tsubine was thought to be having a relationship with Captain Soi Fon. It was later proven true when an unknown person was able to use his Zanpakutou's ability to broadcast the image across the Soul Society. Rumors went around that the two were to be engaged. This was proven false on one faithful day...

Two swords clashed early one morning on Sōkyoku hill. On one end was the Captain of the Second Division and the other was the Lieutenant of the Thirteenth. Nobody but Tsubine and Soi Fong know of what started the fight, but everyone there remembers it. The fight brought out Soi Fong's Bankai and Tsubine was still in his shikai. After almost being killed by one strike of her Bankai, Tsubine released his Bankai, slicing her bankai off of her in a single swing. There were seven-hundred people that witnessed that battle. In a single swing, Tsubine had killed his fiance`.

Now the Second Division's captain, Tsubine took pride in his job. When he met Ichigo Kurosaki and the others, he fought Yoruichi Shihouin. But he was unable to beat her, though it is rumored that he held back, not wanting a repeat of his nightmares.

By the time of the Espada's attacks on the Fake Karakura Town, Tsubine had achieved seven alternate forms. He fought Barragan Luisenbarn. Briefly, he used Bankai's "true form" and sliced Barragan in half. Luckily, nobody has seen this. Due to captain's spots opening, Tsubine was briefly transferred to the Fifth Division. When the captain he replaced was killed in battle, Tsubine returned to the Second Division, where he was for a long while.

During the battle with Aizen and his Espada, after Aizen was killed Tsubine found the Hougyouku after it was ejected from his body. Tsubine has kept this a secret from everyone, including Yukiko and Shinobu. After the fight with Zin and Shadin, Tsubine knew that he couldn't fight on their side any more. However, that was just a ruse. In fact, Yamamoto had approached Tsubine after the new Central 46 ordered Yamamoto to send in a sleeper agent to infiltrate the Kokuryuteshi. Tsubine gladly accepted, and he rebelled soon after he used Seven Swell on Earth. His agreement with Kin included hollowfication. After a week or two, Tsubine became a Vizard.



Zanpakutô Spirit:(Describe the physical manifestation of your sword. Include its name, appearance, personality, and where it lives.)

Shinigami Skill Level: Kidou: Advanced
Shinigami Skill Level: Swordsmanship: Advanced
Hollow Skill Level: Sonido: Master
Hollow Skill Level: Cero/Bala: Adept
Skill Level: Hand-to-Hand: Advanced+


Vizard powers:
• Hollow Mask: The Vizard remain in complete control while wearing their masks (unlike Ichigo's early unstable transformations). According to Aizen, the fusion of the two spiritual entities allows these Shinigami to reach power levels far surpassing that of either a Hollow or a Shinigami.

Bala (虚弾 (バラ), bara; Spanish for "bullet", Japanese for "Hollow Bullet") Bala is an Arrancar alternative to Cero. The technique hardens the user's Spiritual Pressure and fires it like a bullet. Although it is weaker than a normal cero, it moves about twenty times faster and can be fired at a much higher rate but the damage is much the same. Stronger Arrancar can also fire a more powerful Bala, while retaining its twentyfold speed.

• Garganta (黒腔(ガルガンタ), garuganta; Spanish for "Throat", Japanese for "Black Cavity") is how Arrancar and Menos-class Hollows move to and from Hueco Mundo. Kaname Tōsen and Kisuke Urahara have also demonstrated the ability to use the technique. It literally tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and solidified to create a discernible pathway.

• Enhanced Speed

• Enhanced Stamina

• Enhanced Strength

• Enhanced Spiritual Power

• Efficiency: Hollow absorb spiritual Power (Reiryoku) from their surroundings, or ingest it from spiritual biengs, while shinigami produce their own natural spiritual Power, some of which is then wasted, or leaked out. By combining these two properties the Vizard can reabsorb the spiritual Power that they themselves give off, making their techniques much more efficient. They can also take it in from other sources, further boosting thier power.

• Cero: They also gain access to some Hollow abilities, such as the Cero blast. Tsubine's Ceros are maroon in color.

• Mask Shielding: Bodily harm can seemingly be ignored while wearing their masks, as demonstrated by Ichigo's Hollow during his unwilling transformations. The Hollow mask can only be maintained for a certain period before its effects wear off: Ichigo can only hold his transformation for short periods (eleven seconds at first), while the other Vizard have seemingly no limit to how long they can last..

• Power Augmentation: with the acquisition of the mask via the subjugation of ones inner Hollow. A Vizard gains access to a additional and separate source of power, in addition to the Shinigami powers one already possesses. The accumulation of both powers together greatly augments the powers of the Vizard beyond what a Shinigami and/or Hollow alone would be capable of.

• Sonído (響転 (ソニード), Sonīdo; Spanish for "Sound" Japanese for "Transfer Effects") is the Arrancar equivalent of the Shinigami Flash Steps and the Quincy Hirenkyaku; it allows the user to travel at incredibly high speeds for short distances. Use of Sonído is punctuated by a brief static sound, in contrast to the "swish" sound caused by Flash Steps. Tsubine is extremely profecient in Sonido, as he was profecient in Shunpo as well.

• Gran Rey Impacto Cañón Cero (roughly Grand King Impact Cannon Zero) is a special form of Cero only useable by the leader of the Arrancar, or possibly the leader of the Vizard. It is ranked "level zero" because it is unlike any other Cero. It does not explode, and it deals no external damage. It is a heightened form of Cero, useable only by a master. Only the strongest can hope to add it to their arsenal.

To perform it, the user clenches their hands into fists and presses their knuckles flat against the enemy's body. They then release a burst of Cero energy from each fist that passes through the enemy's skin, dealing no external damage, and directly attacks the enemy's insides. Being attacked by this Cero technique can make one ache so much that they are doubled over in extreme pain, and is described as being like "trauma". Using it on a limb, such as an arm or leg, can leave the muscles so damaged that the limb goes numb. When used on the torso, the victim can sometimes begin to cough up blood from the internal damage. However, the technique is also dangerous to the user. Using it even once can leave the user extremely winded, panting and gasping for air. Firing it repeatedly can put the user in physical pain. It is the ultimate Cero attack, but using it is extremely risky.

While the technique is traditionally used by pressing the user's fists flat against the victim, the bursts of Cero energy actually travel through the air about a foot from the user's fists. But despite this distance, it is almost exclusively close-quarters. Tsubine developed this for use with his Shunko, thus noone else can use him.

• Telekinesis: Vizard apparently hold varying degrees of telekinesis; For example, Ichigo, in his new Hollowfied form, has employed this ability to call forth his Zanpakutō with a mere flick of the wrist.

•Linde Aciberar: (roughly Limit Break) It is a version of his Bankai's Seven Swell. In fact, it is the Seven Swell, only modified because of the hollow's power. While it is unknown why this had happened, but the power difference is notable. The power is almost doubled, and the timeline for when Shikai, Bankai, etc is able to be used is increased by 2-3 days, depending on the original density. However, the most prominent feature is that Tsubine is not comatose afterwards. Instead, he slowly loses control over his inner hollow.

Hollow form: Tsubine's arms are stretched out and his hands become claws. His legs become footless and are pointed to the point they can be used as a weapon. His left arm has a pauldron with spikes on them. He also gains two "talons" that are attached to his back via a cable like his Shikai's claws. His body is mainly black, with a few white and crimson outlines. His arms can twist themselves to look like lances.

Hollow mask: Tsubine's mask is capable of being on for up to five hours.
