Full name: Akujin Shihouin
Common name: Akujin
Nicknames/Aliases: Aku (short version of his name)
Age of soul: 624
Age of appearance: 24
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Doesn't Care For Love
Nationality: Italian
Appearance: Akujin has a complexion that is darker than a normal Shinigami's and golden eyes to boot. The purple marks on the sides of his eyes are tattoos that he was forced to get after losing a dare when he was younger. He has an athletic build, but isn't as wide as some would imagine for his height. He is very lean and because he focuses more on his leg strength than his arm strength his muscles aren't rippling, but they are defined. Despite his fear of needles, Akujin decided to get the Shihouin family crest tattooed to his back. The front of his torso is covered in multiple scars from either careless fights with hollows or his reckless training session. Likewise, his hands are pretty scarred as well. Since he doesn't like people asking him questions about the scars, he usually covers them by wearing black fingerless gloves. The rest of his Shinigami outfit is the standard issue with the exception of his tendency to cut off the sleeves. His goggles are also a weird accessory to his image.
Height: 6’3
Weight: 150lbs
Rank: Undecided (TBA)
Personality:
Akujin has a stern and callous demeanor to his being. He remains silent most of the time and prefers to answer only the most necessary of questions. When he does answer, his response is usually curt or said with either sarcasm or spite. Akujin has a considerably short fuse and, if annoyed to a certain point, will kill the person without blinking an eye. He feels no remorse for those killed and has been known to kill without discrimination. Torture of the mind and body always interests him, giving him a reputation as a Sadist. Akujin kills just to kill, unless told otherwise. Unless the mission calls for retrieval, he will kill the target.
When it comes to work and missions, Akujin does not accept failure. He will kill anyone or anything that gets in the way of his work. This includes teammates. He doesn’t stop for anyone to catch up and refuses to let anything slow him down. If he misses his target, which is very rarely done, he will make sure that it isn’t missed for long.
Zanpakuto Appearance, Abilities, and Attacks
Name of Zanpakuto: Kurosan (Black Acid)
Pronunciation: (Coo-row-san)
Zanpakuto Spirit Description:
Kurosan's appearance in her zanpakuto world is rather odd. She appears as dark silhouette of a woman, but no matter how close one gets to her, Kurosan's features remain in shadows. The only details that can be made out are the obvious limbs and anatomy, but her face is bare. She has no eyes, nose, or mouth, but she can speak and see just fine. Her body can change shape as well, but she never loses the featureless look.
The reason for her appearance, is Akujin's ever shifting identity. Like her form, the Shinigami is misleading with his personality and is always changing his mind over things. In short, Akujin is a very uncertain person. This is why Kurosan lacks fixed features and a definite shape; she is the reflection of his indecisive soul.
Sealed description:
Kurosan’s black blade is inscribed with the kanji for 'death' in a blood red. Its hilt fabric is in a criss-cross pattern of black and red. It has the regular dimensions of a katana sword and is holstered in a black sheath.
Zanpakuto Element: Acid
Shikai Information

Shikai: (Not Obtained)
Shikai activation phrase: "Corrode the Sky and Dissolve the Seas, Kurosan"
Shikai Description:
Kurosan loses its sword like appearance and becomes a full body suit. The entire suit is now Akujin’s zanpakuto. The actual armor on the suit does little for protection, but it does well when faced against a regular blade. Akujin's suit is now equipped with a total of four short swords. He can't use them all at once and there isn't anything truely special about their blades. The visor on the suit doesn't prevent him from seeing as it acts just like goggles. The only difference is that the material is made as sturdy as bullet proof glass.
His main ability is the manipulation of acid. This acid can appear in two different forms; liquid and gas. The acid eats/burns through mostly anything, however some things take longer to dissolve than others. Such as pure (sealed)zanpakutos. The physical appearance of the sword will begin to corrode and melt after a long exposure to the acid. So anything made from pure reiatsu or made of an element that is not physically capable of dissolving, melting, burning, boiling, or corroding is not affected by the acid.
Shikai Attacks:
Sanheki (Acid Burst):
Akujin forces super heated, pressurized, acid particles out of the vent like slots on the boots of his body suit. This alone gives him a burst of temporary speed by forcing the hot mist out at high speeds, propelling him forward (or any other direction). If, and when, he combines this with Shunpo, it adds an extra boosts of speed to help catch his opponent off guard.
(Equivalent to a regular Shunpo)
Santama (Acid Bullet):
Akujin holds out his fist and shots a condensed acid bullet toward his target. With its bullet like speed and shape, it works just like any regular bullet would when fired. However, due to its acidic properties, it can and will eat clear through anything that is not reinforced with any pure energy property. (i.e If a person decided to swat their zanpakuto at the bullet, when the bullet hits, it will not go straight through the metal, but will begin to corrode it from the outside.) Once the bullet goes through its target, just like gun residue, the acidic particles left on the victim will begin to burn them for quite some time, but the hole created will not grow any bigger or do any more damage aside from the inside of the wounds new burn marks. This technique can be used in a punching motion or through any other thrust like movement and in rapid succession.
Santacchi (Acid Touch):
Akujin releases acid from every pore in his hands/arms. The result being acid covered claws. When touched by this attack, the skin is immediately eaten away. Afterwards, the bone and muscle, begin to corrode as well. Even a slight brush will begin to work as if the touch had lingered.
Sanmyaku (Acid Pulse):
Akujin leaps into the air and once his feet (or any other part of his body) touches the ground, he releases a wave of acid in a 360 degree direction. Once the pulse reaches 25 ft the wave disperses. The acid is tightly packed when first released, however the farther out it reaches the more spread out it is and the less damage the opponent will receive if hit.
*This move can also be used by slamming his fist together*
Sanenban (Acid Disk):
Akujin places his hands out in front of him; both palms facing each other. He begins making circular motions with his hands while gathering acid in the space between them. Once a small black ball is formed, the ball is flattened into a disk and tossed/thrown/flung/launched at the opponent or Akujin can keep it spiraling in his palm and use it as a saw blade. It moves at great speeds and cuts through things like a hot blade through butter. It can be thrown with a slight curve, but cannot change direction once thrown. The movement that is needed to make this disk only takes a minimum of 3-4 seconds to complete.
Sanwangetsu (Acid Crescent):
AKujin swings one of the swords at his opponent and releases a crescent shaped mass of liquid acid. The wave of acid moves with frightening speed and will continue on until it hits another object.
Bankai Information

Bankai: Not Obtained
Bankai activation phrase: "Eat away the flesh and Burn the Bone, Bankai!"
Bankai Description:
His Bankai isn't much different than his Shikai, with the only main change is the body suit. This suit allows for more protection and has more vents to push out acid with. In fact, now, with every move Akujin makes, there is a trail of acid mist following the movement. The mist only last a quick 3 seconds, but it still retains its burning abilitiy. Even if Akujin is moved with his consent, the acid will leak out and burn anything it touches. Since the quantity of the gas is so small, the acid won't do too much damage. At the least it will give a burning feeling to anyone that touches it, but it won't actually burn through unless the spot is exposed to the acid for a long period of time.
Bankai Attacks:
Sanheki (Acid Burst):
Akujin forces super heated, pressurized, acid particles out of the vent like slots on the boots of his body suit. This alone gives him a burst of temporary speed by forcing the hot mist out at high speeds, propelling him forward (or any other direction). If, and when, he combines this with Shunpo, it adds an extra boosts of speed to help catch his opponent off guard. This Sanheki is more powerful than the Shikai version due to the fact that, now, acid is being pushed out of the vents on his suit boots and from the back vents.
(Equivalent to Captain Shunpo)
Sankei (Acid Whip):
Akujin snaps his hands back with a quick flick. When he brings them back up, two acid whips have materialized and can now lash out at the opponent with a reach of 14 ft . When the whips come into contact with anything, they eat through it leaving some acidic particles on the object, which gives it a longer effect.
Sanosu (Acid Push):
Akujin release acid from the palm of his hands. The acid is released in its liquid form similar to that of a fire hose. This attack is much deadlier than the others as there is a much larger quantity of acid and isn’t as easy to disperse.
Sanpanchi (Acid Punch):
Akujin releases hot, pressurized acid out of the elbows of the suit. In the same manner as Sanheki, it cause a burst of power to force the arm forward, giving it a massive boost in power.
Sanwangetsu (Acid Crescent):
AKujin swings his sword at his opponent and releases a crescent shaped mass of liquid acid. The wave of acid moves with frightening speed and will continue on until it hits another object.
Sanuwagi (Acid Coat):
Akujin emits a cloak of acid smoke that eats at everything it touches. The 'cloak' surrounds his body in a thick layer of gaseous acid and his body suit, itself, leaks liquid acid as well. In this stage physical touch is nearly impossible, unless willing to damage yourself or by using long range attacks as well as spiritual attacks. (i.e throwing flames, ceros ect.) Unfortunately, everything has a set back. While in this stage, Akujin cannot use Sanosu or Sankei due to lack of a purely concentrated point of exit. However, this mode can be shut off just as quickly as it starts, but constant usage of the attack will effect Akujin as well. If he inhales too much of the toxic fumes, he could suffocate, so he tries his best to avoid using the attack for a duration of time.
Skills:
At the moment he has none that stand out.
Kidou: He does NOT use Kidou
Bakudou:
None
Hadou:
None
Biography: (**May edit later if needed**)
Like most Shinigami, Akujin has no memory of his life before death. In fact, he never really cared for knowing his passed life. Akujin was “born” into the Shihouin family and was raised under their rules and mottos. They taught him that failure was not an option and that his job was to protect the Shihouin name no matter the cost. He attended the Shinigami Academy and managed to graduate at head of the class with his only flaw being in Kido. This was because he viewed Kido as a waste of time and was known more for using physical skill rather than spiritual power. Now Akujin is set on becoming strong enough to take a Captain’s seat; trying to prove his worth as a true Shihouin.
