Name of character: Yori Hakado

Race: Bount/Raven

Story: After Yori got his Raven number. He returned back to the U.S where he fought in the army for two years. During this time somewhere along the line Yori lost his left arm out at battle. Though thanks to robotics scientist managed to bulid him an arm. After his accident Yori stayed in the Vetrains Hospital.

((2 years ago.))

Yori walked out of the bus and in front of the Vetrains Hospital. As new solders walked into the hospital a wave emotion of worry swept throught his mind. He thought about every one back at the mansion. Yori walked over to one of the doctors. "Where do I get my hospital robe?" Yori asked the doctor. "In the nurses office," The doctor replied.
While Yori was their he met
a beautiful nurse named Tana. She had beautiful, black hair which was about 12 inches long held in a french twist ponytail and skin colored like carmel. She walks with such grace. whiteI have to meet her. Yori said to himself as he watched her walk down the Hospital hallway in her nurse uniform.

So he slowly approached her from behind. Then cleared his throat and said nervously " Ummmm. " his voice trailed off as
Tana turned around with a curious look on her face. Yori then straightened his chest and pushed it out and continued by saying " Well my Yori name is Hi. " Then he slapped his forehead as he realized how stupid what he just said was. Tana giggeled, then she she asked
" Are you trying to ask me out Yori? " then Yori replied " Well that depends, Is it working?"

Once again the young nurse laughed and said
" Yes it is working, but if we were to go out to dinner where would we meet. After all your not supposed to leave the hospital for another month. "
Now feeling alittle more confident he replied " You let me worry about that. Just meet me at my room, 502 at eight'o clock. She silently nodded then commented " Oh, and by the way my name is Tana. "

The two slowly went their own ways. Throughout the day Yori decorated his hospistal room with candels, rose pedals and set up a wonderful steak dinner on his bed. He even had a box of chocalates waiting for his wonderful date to arrive. Suddenly as the moon arose into the beautiful night sky
there was a knock on the door. Yori jolted towards the door, but before opening the door he turned off the lights and straightened
his patient robe.

As the door slowly opened there Tana stood wearing a stunning cherry red mini dress the alluminated the room.
" May I come in Yori? " she asked shyly. " Y-yes of course c-come in. "
Yori replied studdering. Then Tana slowly entered with her jaw dropped.
" This is astounding Yori! I mean look at the candels, the window view and the rose pedals.

Oh, and the wonderful dinner wh-where did you get the steak? " Well when you've been here for awhile the lunchlady starts to get sweet on you. Ha ha. " Yori replied blushing with a small smile growing on his face as he continued " So let's eat before it gets cold. " Tana smiled and nodded then took a seat on the bed waiting sinaling Yori to join her with a pat on the bed. He walked over and handed Tana her plate.


She kindly said thankyou and ask " So would you like meet to say grace? "
Yori laughed abit before saying while still snickering
" So, i've I have a goodie good on my hands? " " Oh shutup, I can just as bad as you. " Tana said now laughing aswell. " Oh yea? " Yori said " Then how about you throw this at piece of steak at the next person that walks by my door. " he concluded holding up a piece of his steaming steak.

" Okay watch this. " she said snatching the piece of steak out oh Yori's hand. Tana walked over to the room door and opened it. She waited for about fourty seconds until she saw a worthy target. It was man about 5'8 with white hair and an all black suit. Tana chucked the piece of meat at the man.

It hit his face, and Tana ducked behind the door frame as the man turned to his left he only saw Yori sitting on his bead busting a gut. As she came back to her plate on the bed Yori said " Wow I didn't think you had it in you. " " Well theres alot of things you don't know about me. " Tana said. Then Yori said " Okay then tell me everything there is to know about you. Then I'll go after you. "

So she began, talking telling wonderful stories making the two of them laugh. Then it was Yori's turn but he barely got half way through cause the two fell asleep together.
When the two awoke the continued their discussion laughing, joking and hugging. Week after week the two enjoyed eachothers company. Or atleast they did until a month had passed. Yori was fully recovered and was ordered to out on the battlefield.

So Yori and Tana met one last time on the dock five minutes before Yori's ship was ready to leave. " The two cried and hugged telling eachother howmuch they cared. " Yori, don't ever forget me. " Yori pulled away knowing he only had around two minutes left and said " I won't Tana. I will never forget you. Now I must be going, goodbye. " Then he joined the rest of his comrads for the remainder of his three years.

Powers gained:In Yori's now robotic arm there is a molicule paralizer
cannon. In whatever body part you are hit by this cannon
it will become useless for about five minutes.((3 post)) His second gained ability also has to do with his arm. You see in his arm there is a flame thrower. Finally his third new ability is his arm has poisoness darts about thirty-two to be exact.

((Ky is going to be all over you guys like white on rice with these posts ... they suck! We are talking about 3 years of time. You have to be way more specific on what your character has done and learned in that time period. A paragraph or two isn't going to cut it ... not for Ky at least. wink ))

No offense to you Ky but, I know what your standards are by now. This is just a heads up to everyone.

Here is a quote from Ky to myself after I asked about the three year skip:

Time Period: Early Summer – [1st Month ….]

Masato receives the official letter from Ky telling him that he must leave the mansion for the next three years and only return after that time is up. This is his final test and that is to see how he survives out on his own away from his own kind.

A short time later Masato looks around the room to make sure he has packed everything he is going to need for this trip. He has already responded to Ky’s notice letting him know that he intends on returning to the mansion so he is able to leave his items in his room that are not needed. Masato has packed light for the long trip. He took his Alchemy book and all his herbs and packed them in his bag. He also packed a change of clothes and some food/water for the first two days of the trip. Masato makes sure he has enough money tucked away for the long trip as well. Looking at the room one last time he says, “I’ll be back…. soon.”

Masato walks out of the mansion and down the stairs to the driveway before looking back and seeing Ky in the window. Giving him the thumbs up to let him know that all is good Masato turns and heads down to the main gate. Approaching the gate the guards shake Masato’s hand and wave him good bye. Masato smiles and walks through the gate and onto the sidewalk. The big iron gate closes with a loud bang and the guards go back to their daily business. The sound of the gate closing behind Masato sends chills up his spine. He has gotten to use to the safety of the walls and gate. He is going to need to harden-up or he won’t make it.

Masato walks for about an hour and makes his way into some woods out of site from the main road. Once he feels he is deep enough into the woods he pulls out his alchemy book and opens it to the chapter titled Forms of Travel. Masato raises his right arm and using his reiatsu says, “Lassen Sie die Winde mich über den Ozean zum Land vom freien tragen.” A couple of seconds later a wavy portal appears in front of him. Shaking his head Masato says, “I have got to learn this stuff better. Look at that piece of crap. I hope it takes me to where I need to go …” Masato puts his book in his bag and walks through the portal and it closes behind him quickly. What seems like seconds later the portal opens up and Masato steps out. Just as the portal is closing Masato notices he is standing on an island in the middle of a swamp. Masato looks around and says, “What the hell …. Oh man, what did I get myself into?” The island is about the size of two basketball courts. In the middle of it is an old wooden shack that is built on stilts for the flood season. There is a small wooden dock and a row-boat tied up to it. Masato can see that this place can be very dangerous if you’re not paying attention and he makes a mental note of it.

Masato makes his way up the stairs and knocks on the door. A few seconds pass and an old hunched over lady appears at the door. She looks at Masato and smiles then invites him in. Masato goes in and she shuts the door. The lady looks at him and says, “Welcome stranger. I have been expecting you. Let me show you to your room so you can get settled in.” Masato follows the lady up some stairs and down a small hallway to a door. She opens it and it’s a small room with a bed, nightstand, small table and a chair, and an empty bookcase. There is a small window that can be opened too. Masato looks at the old lady and smiles before going in. It wasn’t much and nothing close to what he had at Ky’s mansion but, he wasn’t here on vacation. He was here to learn and study the black magic that was handed down from one generation to another. This magic was special and only came from the folks who lived all their lives in the Louisiana Bayous. It was a very dark magic and could only be learned and controlled by a select few. Masato was one of them ….

[6 months later ….]

It has been six months since Masato arrived at the shack in the swamp. Masato and the old lady had built a bond and according to her, Masato was on the right track in his training. Since arriving Masato has studied and mastered some healing methods that were used hundreds of years ago to heal people. Using those teachings and mixing them with his reiatsu, Masato is able to heal others who are on the brink of death. Mixing the old ways with his Raven training made an impression on the old lady. She told Masato that the next six months are going to be critical for his training because he is going to learn how to use those same powers to take a life. Masato took his training seriously but when he heard that, something about her words sent tingles up and down his spine.

[8 months later ….]

Masato was in the row-boat with the old lady learning about plants and different kinds of vegetation around the swamp lands. Masato had learned about different kinds of berries, roots, and weeds that can be used for food, medicine, and poisons. He learned from the old lady that just about anything around him can be used to his advantage. Masato learned how to live off the land and how to survive with little to nothing available. He learned how to trap animals and humans. The old lady spent 3 months teaching Masato SERE techniques. (Survival, Escape, Resistance, Evasion) in the event that he would be captured by the Shinigami or Hollows without the use of his doll. It was hard training for Masato but, he learned a lot in those 3 months.

[12 months later …]

Masato was just starting to finish his first note book when he realized that he had been training with the old lady for just about a year. Looking through the pages of his note book he was amazed at how much he had learned from her. That’s when he heard the noise at the door. Turning his head the old lady was standing there and said, “Masato, you have done very well so far. I would have to say that at this rate, you are going to be one of my best students. But there is a lot you must still learn and some of it, I can’t teach you. Over the next 6 months I’m going to teach you the ways of Voodoo and how to transfer/make your own doll. Then you will make a doll of your own. That will be the final test. If you pass, you will be done with your training with me. The rest will be done on your own.” The old lady turned and walked away. Masato put his notebook in his bag and grabbed a new one for the next lessons.

[18 months later … ]

Masato was sitting in front of the small fire in the hut with the old lady. It was cold and he was working on his doll. The old lady was reading a book and had a blanket wrapped around her. A hot cup of tea was next to her and every so often she would look over at Masato to check his progress. Masato was just about done making the doll. He was adding some final details and then placed the doll down. Turning to the old lady Masato says, “I’m ready. My doll is done and I’m ready to make it come alive.” The old lady closed her book and placed it on the table next to her tea. She gets up and makes her way over to the table where Masato was waiting. The old lady says, “This is it, the final test Masato. If you are successful you will be leaving me tomorrow to finish your training. If not, you will be staying with me for further training. Now, let’s get started.”

Masato looks at the doll he just made and then at the old lady. She gives him a nod to let him know that she is there with him just in case of an emergency. Masato closes his eyes and lets his reiatsu flow through his body. The buildup is a lot faster than ever before. Reaching down and grabbing the doll Masato says, “Mein Herz zu Ihrem Herzen, bringt Leben diese Puppe.” ((from my heart to yours, bring this doll to life.)) The surge of reiatsu that jumped from Masato’s body to the doll just about knocked him off his feet. All of a sudden the room started to spin and Masato felt like he was going to pass out and then everything stopped. Gasping Masato caught his breath and balance. Once stable, Masato looked at the old lady for guidance but she didn’t say anything. Masato turned back toward the table and the doll was standing there staring at him. The old lady says, “You did it Masato. You made your first doll and brought it to life. Now in the event that you think that your doll will die in combat, you can transfer its soul to a doll you made on your own. Congrats, you are ready to go on your own now. You have learned the ways of the voodoo doll.”

[24 month ….]

Masato gets off the boat and thanks the driver for the ride. It’s only 7 a.m. and it’s almost 90 degree’s already. The jungle is like a steam bath already and Masato has a long hike to the camp up in the mountains. It took him six months to travel from Louisiana to Cambodia for his final leg of training. In those six months Masato was able to master the powers of the voodoo doll. He could transfer a soul from one doll to another. He could also entrap a soul into a doll and lay a curse on someone. The black magic training he received from the old lady he will never forget. This last leg of his training is going to test his Alchemy training as a whole. Masato must use what he learns here and what he has learned in the last couple of years to make it through these last couple of months.

A couple of days later Masato walks into the village and is greeted by the village children which lead him to the old man’s hut. Sitting at a table filled with books and scrolls is an old man who looks up from his studies as Masato walks in and bows. The old man stands and bows back. He looks at Masato and says, “I have been waiting a long time for a Raven to return to my village. Until today, I never thought it would be possible. My name is Shun and I will be your instructor for however long you need my services for. I can assure you Master that no one will bother you during your studies. I will make sure of that. Now let me take you to your room so you can get settled before you start your work.” Masato bows and says, “It is an honor to learn from you Master Shun. Your village is perfect for what I am here for and for what I have to do.” Masato shakes the old man’s hand and goes into his room to put his things away.

[25th Month … ]

Masato listens to the old man instruct him on using his reiatsu and alchemy powers to make a portal for transporting himself and his doll from one location to another. Putting his head down, Masato remembers his last try at this. It took him to the swamps of the old lady which is where he needed to go but, it was by luck not skill. The old man see’s Masato’s look on his face and he says, “Masato, I know you have tried this before and it didn’t go as you had planned. But, that’s what I am here for. I will train you the right way of doing this and once you got it, there won’t be anywhere you won’t be able to go with it. You have to have faith in my training.” Masato looks at the old man and says, “Ok, let’s get this ball rolling ….” Masato listens and takes notes as the old man speaks.

Two weeks later Masato is standing in front of the old man with a canteen of water and only the clothes on his back. He looks at Masato and says, “I want you to transport yourself and your doll to the docks where you came in from. Then I want you to transport yourself back here. Also, while at the docks … bring back some fresh fish for dinner as your proof. If you can’t make it back, it’s going to be a couple of days for you to hike back up here. You will have to use your survival skills to make it back because you have no food or shelter with you. Good luck and I’ll see you soon … oh, and you must do this test without using your notes. You have to master this task by memory Masato. Good Luck!” The old man turns and walks away to a handmade bench to sit and watch. Just as he sits down a teenage boy walks up with some tea for him to drink.

Masato shakes his head and turns to face the path which leads out of the village. He closes his eyes and starts his focus. Then opening his eyes he puts his right hand out and says, “Lassen Sie den Wind meine Füße tragen” ((let the wind carry my feet)) a magical portal appears in front of Masato. He jumps in and it closes behind him. The old man smiles and takes a sip of tea …

Masato jumps out of the portal and is on the beach where he arrived at. Happy as all hell because he made it, Masato walks into the small village and makes his way to the fish stand. Masato picks up two large fish and pays for them. Taking them back to the beach he looks around and says, “Lassen Sie den Wind meine Füße tragen” ((let the wind carry my feet)) a magical portal appears in front of Masato. He jumps in and it closes behind him. It seems like seconds and Masato is jumping out of the portal with the fish right where he started from. Turning around he sees the old man sipping his tea right where he left him. Masato walks up to him and says, “How long have I been gone for?” The old man puts his tea down and says, “Maybe a couple of minutes … and congrats Masato you passed the test. The only thing you must remember is that you have to know where you are going too. What I mean by this is simple; you have to have been to that place before in your life in order for the spell/ability to work. Also, you must remember that this power uses some of your reiatsu can weaken you if you use it too many times in one day. The only way to recover your reiatsu is through rest or some of that black magic you have been taught. Now come and let’s make that fish you have just brought back. You have much more training and a short amount of time before you have to go back to Japan.”

[30th Month – 35th Month …]

Masato has been a guest of the old man Shun for 11 months now and he has learned to use his reiatsu and Raven powers to portal from one location to another no matter the distance without using any notes. During those six months the old man has also taught Masato how to call his doll and fuse with it in a single word should it be an emergency. Masato has also learned a move similar to the Shinigami Shunpo or Flash Step. But yet again he is told by Shun that using that often will eat up his reiatsu. Masato is told to only use that in an event of an emergency.

[36th Month … ]

Masato is packing his bag when there is a knock at his door, it is Master Shun. Masato bows to Master Shun and says, “Please come in master and have a seat. I am just packing for my trip back to Japan tomorrow.” Shun grabs a seat and says, “Masato, you have been one of my best students and I have been training Ravens for a long time. But, your anger for the Shinigami race is going to consume you if you don’t let it go. It’s going to make you go crazy and do dumb things…even possibly get you killed.” Masato turns to Shun and says, “You have no clue what they did to my family. If I had been there that day, I would have lost my life too. They must pay for the lives they have taken Master. They were not just anyone … they were my family.” Master Shun stands up and says, “Revenge will get you no were Masato. It won’t bring back your family but, should you ever need anything just ask and I will always be here for you. It was a pleasure having you as one of my students.” Master Shun shakes Masato’s hand and then leaves the room.

Masato takes a look around the room and then steps outside onto the dirt path that leads out of the village and waves his hand in a circle making the portal. Masato steps in and the portal closes behind him……within seconds he is standing outside the gates to Ky’s mansion checking in with the guards. They open the gates and Masato walks in with an evil smile on his face …

((Stealing you posting idea Yin))

1st month

The first month in Kevin's live from the time skip had been pretty normal, he trained every day honing all of his hollow skills, making himself more powerful, but why was he doing this was the only thing on his mind, he constantly trained and nothing else, but he dismissed the thought and trained anyways so no one could oppose him.


2nd - 5th month
Kevin had still devoted his time to training in the hollow arts, learing new skills or at least trying to invent new ones to use against people. He had been thinking of a way to make a Lightning Cero, and has found a way, the process is difficult to do, even with one ehoi has a master of the hollow arst as a hollw inside him, but he had learned it. Sometime during the 4th month Kevin began to lose his sanity, he knew it was fading and didn't try to prevent it He thougt it was either his hollow trying to resume control or something that was long overdue, but none the less he kpet training.

6th-9th month
His sanity was wearing thin throuout these months, eventually he left everything behind to see out his destiny while killing everything in bhis path as a result from his insanity. "Will ypu help me mister?" Asked a little girl lost in the woods Kevin was in, he answer was a quick death to the girl, he didn't even give her passage to the Sereitai, he left her there as hollow chow, he did tis to many people, an befriending some people to get things he wanted, his insanity deepened into his soul causing his inner hollow to resurface. His inner hollow knew his place and hadn't tried to take Kevin over, though he still hated him with ever fiber of his being.

Sometime during the 9th month he got enraged by something that not even I could tell you about and launced a powerful cero into the air, there was too much power behind it which caused his Hirreo layer to form his entire body letting a mindless hollow form to take temporary control, while he was like this towns were slaughtered in the most remote locations and none were spared, while this was happening the layer that had formed was slowly going away. After he had regained control he kept wandering off living off of the land and speeling where ever he could find a suitable spot.

10th-12th Month

His insanity was at its peak during the tenth month, He eventually found an ancient warrior tribe somewhere on the world. he decided he could join this tribe and gain some more skills even though he was insane he still had some rational though. He took his mask off and walked into the tribe but he was blocked off, they had a strict no outsiders law, it infuratd him but he still wanted in, and he would have to find another way. When nithfall hit and all but the guards were asleep he snuck in from the air he had a little trouble avoiding the guards and finding the new recruits tent, but he snuck in cast aside his old clothes somewhere for future retrival and pit on the initiates clothing and fell asleep in the first comfy makeshift bed he has seen in a year.

13th-19th month

He had been awokne abruptly by the officers of the tribe and put the initats to hard work for training all of which was easy to kevin, this was like... well no it was no where near as intense as his training, he did however impress the superiors with his excellence, they did converse about it without Kevin, they weren't sure who he was or where he came from but they did believe he was from the tribe they trained everyone for a month to get them ready for combat, Kevin still excelled. "Ok we're gonna be training with real swords." One od the trainers shouted to the initiates. "Sir I would like to use a Boken." Kevin shouted back, they didn't deny his wish they gave him his Boken and he still decimated everyone, after that they had been througaly impressed at his work and decided he was now a soldier of the trible.

"You have been out most exclelent initiate we have ever had, so we present you with out Holy plated armor." They handed KEvin golden armor which did have a holw attribute to it, the moment he put it on it felt as if it was eating the insanity out of him but it had been to deep rooted for it to make an effect. "Listen up we're off to war tomorrow all of you soldiers will be following me while he rest of you worthless initiates will stay behind until your training is finished." One of the superiors shouted, after which tghey moved out.

Countless battles had been fought and countless more had been slaughtered, most of which were by Kevin's hand, while laughing maniacally at everyone he had attacked he enjoyed the slaughter, hie Holy armor had been soaked in blood but it was cleaned whenever it rained, they had won every battle they had fought his mask was manifested whenever he wore the helmet so he was unstoppable, and no one would be the wiser.

20th-24th Month

Battles were still fought and Kevin was getting commended for his actions in the battlefield, he made their tribe unbeatable. sometime during the 24th month one of the enemies made the army surrender, they did their homework from every other battle they had done and found a way to their leader They were all told to step down, but Kevin managed to get away before they could notice him, he fired a Cero at the enemy and no one noticed beacause they weren't facing their leader, but Kevin killed the enemy and freed their army. The general so to speak of the tribe told Kevin he owed him his life for that rescue, but the Cero had taken more ouf of him that he though and created a Heirro layer under his armor on his arm. He collapsed on the ground where they discovered he was an outsider.

Kevin woke up still in his armro but his hands were bound and he was on his knees. "You've regained consciousness. Good." He drew KEvins Zaanpakuto. "the law states no outsiders are allowed in out tribe." He said. "Give me a warriors death, make it clean." Kevin said calmly, He waited for the day he would die to come, he shut his eyes as he waited for the embrace of death, he heard the metal his something but it wasn't him it was the ground cutting the rope that bound him. "A life for a life, I have repaid my Dept." The general said leaving Kevin there as the army left. KEvin placed his helmet on his head as the shadows from hs Zanpakuto corrupted the armor causing it to turn black the spaulders spiked upwards and grew to be big, the chest plate was turned black His helmet grew horns atop the head and a center spike which all three spiked upward and back a little, His leggings grew spikes on the knee caps and his toes became spiked, arm armor produced spikes on the knuckles and the elbow, his armor had been corrupted forever, but it was made better.

25th- 30th month
((Edit later when I think of more. His insanity does go away))

Name of character: Hanon Doumoto

Race: Vaizard

Story: Hanon will be wandering around, looking for ways to become more powerful. She has lately tried to get information from inside Hueco Mundo and the Sereitei to stay informed about current events. Hanon intends to help fight with and protect the shinigami during the invasion and retreat. She will be on and off depending on what tasks she receives and whether or not she is training, but she hopes to be able to remain around the shinigami.

Powers gained:
-Resurreccion: Part of their original hollow form is restored, changing their appearance, giving them greater strength.
-Hierro: Incredibly tough skin due to condensed reiatsu, it is by no means impenetrable.
-Garganta: A tear between the rifts of different worlds. Generally used by hollows to move to and from Hueco Mundo.

Name of character: Yomiko Shihouin

Race: Vaizard

Story: Once the business in Las Noches was done, Yomiko seemed to have severed her ties to anyone whom she was affiliated with in the Soul Society. With the meeting of her son, Ezru and the death of her husband, she was convinced that she needed to train herself, in order to be strong again. Yomiko secluded herself to the training area and devoted herself to training her Vaizard powers and to have a better 'hold' on her roguish Zanpaku-to. With the intense training she buried herself in, her personality began to change as well. The woman became more confident in herself, as to opposed to the state where she once was. As an influence from Persephone, she began a little bit more battle-hungry and sadistic as well. In order to support herself in the Human World, since she abandoned her house long ago in the Seireitei, she began to work in a barbershop (Yeah. I know, right.) cutting hair and such. Well, she owned the barber shop, but still... When she completed her three year training regime, she devoted her time to the barbershop... and sometimes the occasional hollow hunting.

Powers gained:

A better 'taming' over Persephone, her Zanpaku-to. Her and Persephone are now 'getting along' as you can say.

-Bala: (虚弾（バラ）, bara; Spanish for "bullet", also translated as "Hollow Bullet") The technique hardens the user's Spiritual Pressure and fires it like a bullet from their fist. It is seriously 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.

-Negación: (反膜（ネガシオン）, Spanish for "negation") fields are used to rescue fellow hollows. Only the Gillian-class Menos have shown the ability to use it. Negación fields surround a target in a square beam of light that isolates the target from the dimension they are currently in, making it impossible to harm them.

-Gran Rey Cero (王虚の閃光, (グラン・レイ・セロ), Guran Rei Sero; Japanese for "royal hollow flash", Spanish for "Grand King Zero") is a much higher-level Cero used by the Espada. It is performed by mixing an Arrancar's own blood with the Cero.
