___________________Physical Description
Iku is, by all definitions of the term, a giant of a man. Standing at an imposing eight foot two, and weighing a full three hundred and seventy four pounds. It is not apparent when looking at him, however, as his body is more slender, despite his height and weight, and is mostly compressed muscle. For the most part, he wears traditional shinigami attire: A pair of white tabi, with straw waraji, a black hakama, and a torn up kosode, exposing the top half of his torso, and both of his shoulders. Only one of the arms is uncovered, and a full sleeve is intact. On his left arm, and on the bottom half of his torso, Iku wears scaled dark red armor, made of soul steel, so that it is resistant to zanpakutou attacks. This armor is not indestructible, but it is highly durable.
Iku's face is imposing, but not overly so, with sharp lines contrasting his cheeks, and somewhat softer lines contrasting his jaw. His chin is well pronounced, and he normally keeps a tight-lipped expression on his face. He wears a black eye patch over his right eye, as it was destroyed in a fight with a Quincy.
___________________Personality
Iku is.. harsh. He doesn't care about anyones feelings save his own, and rarely comments on anything unless he is saying something rude. He is very fond of curse words, and often uses them in other languages to confuse those he deems to have 'weaker minds'.
Iku also hates being around other people, so he chooses to spend the majority of his time in complete solitude. In truth, this is because of his dislike of 'idiots', translating into him not entirely minding being around people of above-average intelligence.
Keywords: Cold, harsh, rude, brash, abrasive.
___________________Biography
Iku was raised by abusive parents, in a very rough portion of the Rukongai. Needless to say, when he grew to his now massive height, he took out his rage on his father, beating him to death and leaving his mother in a fit of angry hatred. Shortly after, he joined the Shinigami academy, beating his way through the ranks with brute force alone, forcing each opponent to kneel before cracking their cheek bones with the back of his hand. This became a habit that he carried into The Gotei, and he soon became known as "Cheeky Cracker". A nickname that will get you killed if you utter it around him.
Shortly after his joining the eleventh division, he managed to beat his way to the vice-captaincy, achieving both shikai and bankai along the way through much of the same means. At this point, he became so enamored with breaking the rules that he had to flee the Seireitei and live in the foothills.
It was during this time that he encountered a hollow with the capability of turning people in hollows. During the process he was able to, you guessed it, beat down his hollow self, forcing it to submit to him, and thus becoming a vizard. This is all of his past that he is willing to divulge.
______________________________Zanpakutō
Name: Ecchi Inkō - (Lewd Throat)
Spirit: Bog Golem
Inner World: Bog Village
Sealed Form: Shirasaya
___________________Shikai
Release Phrase: Kuikorosu - (Bite to Death)
As the weapon releases, a jet black tsuba forms on the shirasaya, the center of it seeming so black that it draws in all forms of light. Once this is completed, a swamp green-brown colored tsuka-ito twines around the tsuka, ending at a newly formed kashiri, which is sprouting a deep olive tentacle-looking appendage, which is approximately twelve inches in length.
Once this is completed, the blade makes a grating sound, harsh on the ears, much like metal plates grinding together roughly, then fractures into dozens of pieces, reforming itself as jagged blade that resembles irregular teeth on the edge. The flat of this blade is perfectly straight and in line, but the edges seem disproportioned, save for the tip, which is clean and concise.
- Kuikorosukuro - (Black Devour)
This is the primary ability of Ecchi Inkō, and can be loosely described as the ability to 'eat' blood, and reiatsu. This is only performed when the blade strikes the opponent, and it must be in contact with the body of the victim in order to take effect. It is particularly effective if stabbed into the victim in question.
Once contact has been achieved, the weapon will then begin to drain the opponent of blood and reiatsu, adding the latter to Iku's own stores, and using the blood to power up his other techniques. Blood used in this fashion causes a doubling of Ecchi Inkō's powers, but must be re-absorbed after each use. (One post of absorption = one post of use for the blood.)
Haihai Shukushu - (Crawling Tentacle)
The attacking portion of Ecchi Inkō's shikai is the ability to create solidified 'vines' which spring out of any solid substance within thirty meters of Iku's position. These vines will bind and hold anyone caught in them, and continue to grow at an accelerated rate if the victim struggles, or if the victim attempts to destroy them, and fails. Each 'vine' varies in size, but can be as thick as three meters, or as thin as three centimeters. Iku has a limit of three hundred vines while in shikai, and may not create any more than that number, regardless of size. While the vines are active, he controls each one remotely, doubling the speed of this control when directed with his hands or sword. While a person is held by any of these vines, their reiatsu is drained at a rate of one eighteenth per post. (Eighteen posts to completely drain a person, thus killing them).
___________________Bankai
Name: Ecchi Inkō no Ikijigoku - (Lewd Throat of the Living Hell)
As bankai is released, the blade of Echhi Inkō turns a deep blood red, and triples in width, thickness and size, becoming more of a zanbatō than a normal katana. The hilt also changes, sprouting seven tentacles, identical to the ones in shikai, from the kashiri of the weapon. These tentacles occasionally wrap around Iku's hand(s) to provide a more secure grip on the rather heavy weapon.
- Bachiatari Kuikorosukuru - (Cursed Black Devour)
Anytime the bankai form of Ecchi Inkō is swung, it is accompanied by a terrible howling noise, which is then followed by an intense suction, akin to a vacuum pulse, that draws anything in front of the slash, out thirty meters, towards Iku with a force of approximately five hundred kilograms per square centimeter. This is accompanied by the original ability to drain blood and reiatsu, which in bankai is partnered by an intense pain. The blade of Ecchi Inkō is also barbed microscopically in this state, making it rather difficult to remove should you be stabbed by it.
Bachiatari Haihai Shokushu - (Damned Crawling Tentacle)
The vines from shikai turn a deep black/green color, and are now accompanied by seven inch long spikes at irregular intervals, regardless of thickness. Most of the restrictions also apply, with the exception that Iku may now create up to one-thousand tentacles, and also that the tentacles in Bankai may become hollow, much like the throat of a carnivorous worm, and literally 'swallow' enemies. All of the effects remain, including the drain, it is slightly amplified however, and thus only takes fourteen posts to complete its course. (Fourteen posts till death if you are trapped by a vine.)

Causes an orange hued tendril with spiraling yellow patterns to erupt from the users hand and attempt to trap a target. the end of it remains in the hands of the user allowing them to control the path of the tendril before and after capture. The Kidō is able to connect with another one of itself if both have captured a target and bind them together.
Incantation: "Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini!! Look upon yourself with horror and tear out your own throat!"

#90 - Kurohitsugi (Black Coffin)
Forms a box of black energy around a target, which is then pierced by dozens of energy "spears," lacerating the one inside from head to toe. Its appearance and function is reminiscent of a common magician's trick, as well as certain torture devices used during the Spanish Inquisition.
#91 - Senjū Kōten Taihō (Thousand-Hand Bright Heaven Culling-Sear)
Summons several spears of light that are all fired towards the same focal point where the intended target resides. The culminating explosion is exceedingly devastating.

The road that basks in light, the wind that ignited the embers, time that gathers when both are together, there is no need to be hesitant, obey my orders. Light bullets, eight bodies, nine items, book of heaven, diseased treasure, great wheel, grey fortress tower. Aim far away, scatter brightly and cleanly when fired"
