His arms are quite well muscled and lean, their appearance clearly screaming strength as are his lean muscled legs.Past Divisions: Squad 2, Head of Onmitsukido
History: Nero was once a member of a highly trained elite group of genetically-enhanced warriors known as Ground Zero. Ground Zero, also the name of the facility in which the squad was held, was an unforgiving place; there was no place more cruel, more demanding, more hellish than Ground Zero. Within the facility were some of the most dangerous and skilled men and women alive. Hailed as the most skilled and powerful warrior among the group, rivaled only by one other, Nero was considered a hero to the people and a true man among men. However the Seers, the officials in charge of regulating, maintaining, and overseeing the elite group recognized the threat that Nero posed. Hoping to prevent Nero from seeking to wrest freedom from the hands of their oppressors, the Seers locked Nero away and planted in him a remotely released poison that would activate should he ever lash out and attack one of the Watchmen or their leader, the OverSeer.
One day, two others of the underground squad came to aid Nero, one known only as Hatori and the other a man who went only by Zero, the only other member of Underground capable of rivaling Nero's strength. Secretly plotting to free Nero and take control of Ground Zero, the three trained in secret for the day of reckoning to come. When the day had finally come, Nero slew the OverSeer as well as his followers, but the poison within his body was released and he quickly succumbed to sickness. After his death Nero found himself in Soul Society, and from their he attended the Shinigami Academy, putting his formidable skills to good use.
It did not take long for the instructors to see his prowess and take notice of his abilities. His skill was such that he graduated from the Shinigami Academy after only a hundred and twenty years, a ridiculously short time. With such a feat under his belt, it was not long before his name began to circulate about the Gotei 13. He was inducted into the Stealth Force of Squad Two and, displaying a great proficiency for Hakuda, was quickly introduced to the Onmitsukido where he was put to good use. Being a member of the Onmitsukido sharpened his skills beyond their already formidable level, nearly surpassing the level of Hakuda Master. It was during this time that he began to gain notice from the higher ups. It soon became known to him that people he was not even existed with the Gotei desired him. Despite having been only the Lieutenant of Squad Two, Nero had already attained Captain Level strength and after three centuries Nero was inducted into Zero Division. There he has served for the last two hundred years.
Extra Weapons or Items: Claws, being sharpened metal pieces that are applied to the fingertips to enhance fighting ability.

~Zanpakuto Information ~
Zanpakuto Name: Kyueen
Zanpakuto Type: Slightly elongated Katana
Zanpakuto Sealed Appearance: Kyuuen
Spirit Appearance: Kyuuen Spirit
Spirit Personality: Kyuuen is wise and quiet with knowledge and wisdom beyond his years. Kyuuen has a tendency to manifest himself just beyond the field of vision to where he appears as a mirage, a vision that you can only just barely see. Being the spirit of eternity, Kyuuen stresses the importance of being mindful of the long-term effects of things. He is slow to forget, quick to offer his wisdom, and uncharacteristically eager to jump into fights.
Spirit Relationship: Nero relies on Kyuuen a good deal to keep him in line, finding his wisdom to be invaluable. However the one thing they do truly have in common is their eagerness for a good fight. Often enough, Kyuuen and Nero argue and don't see eye to eye but they have been through thick and thin together and their faith in one another is unshakeable.
Spirit Inner World: A moonlit field where the full moon forever shines above. At the center of the field sits a solitary sword, it's appearance changing with the state of Nero's heart and mind. This sword is surrrounded
Shikai Appearance:
Look leftShikai Release Command: "To all thing's End, Kyuuen"
Shikai Release Appearance: A whirl of white wind swirls around Nero's form before dispersing in a burst of reiatsu. Left at the center is Nero's form, simplified to simple pants and boots.
Shikai Ability:Nero's greatest strengths lie in his speed and strength. These are enhanced by his Shikia's release.
Shikai Attacks:
----[1] Naraku Furea (Eternity Flare)- A more straightforward attack, Eternity Flare fires a blasts from the barrel of Nero's zanpakutou varying in shape from a bullet to large blast wave. Iridescent in color, the blasts' strength varies with the amount of reiatsu fueling it. Capable of being fired in rapid succession in bullet form, the blasts are capable of melding together and enveloping a target. The blasts appear to shred or grind whatever comes in contact with them.
----[2] Be-ru(Veil)- A defensive maneuver, Veil creates a protective veil of translucent iridescent reiatsu around Nero. Capable of being compressed to increase its defensive power, this ability is capable of withstanding rather powerful attacks. However, the Veil drains reiatsu in correlation to the amount of force or damage being withstood beyond a certain point.
Bankai Appearance: Nero gains wings like his Zanpakuto Spirit. However the real change in in his zanpakutou
Bankai Release Appearance: Wings of pure silver light sprout from Nero's back and envelope him before spreading and creating a powerful gust of wind accompanied by a bright flash revealing his new form.
Bankai Ability: Nero's Bankai is capable of releasing controlled kinetic pulses similar to explosions with the pull of the trigger. Aside from this, Nero is granted greater speed, great enough to create afterimage clones without performing Utsusemi and creating enhanced clones when he does so. His strength is too enhanced to a frightening level.
Bankai Attacks:
----[1] Gigaton Doroppu (Gigaton Drop)- Shunpo'ing into the air, Nero collects a mass of reiatsu from Hateshinai Kyuuen into a large sphere of ever-changing color. Once the sphere reaches its full size Nero fires it down towards the ground, and generally by extension the opponent. Upon collision with the ground a massive amount of energy is released outwards from the impact site. As the sphere sinks into the ground, the massive amount of energy distorts the gravity of the surrounding area and disrupts kido and kidou-based attacks and similar techniques. (Lasts 3 Posts)
----[2] Kyuuen Nohara (Eternity Field)- Channeling his reiatsu into his zapakutou, Nero hurls one of his zanpakutou into the air. It soon after falls blade-tip first into the center of the battlefield and releases a grand surge of reiatsu, creating a field of energy. Covering a radius of 600m around the blade, the blade creates a temporal field in which time is distorted to the point where it becomes sluggish. All besides Nero and his opponent themselves become sluggish and slow. Within this field Nero can create temporal illusions, pulling images of himself or other things from the past into the field to confuse his opponent. (lasts 4 posts)
----[3] Eta-naru Sesshon(Eternal Session)- A tremendously draining technique, Nero combines the effects of Kyuuen Nohara and Gigaton Doroppu. Filling his duel zanpakutou with reiatsu, a temporal feield that simultaneously distorts gravity is created around Nero's body. During this time, lasting 2 posts, Nero becomes uncannily fast, capable of creating a great number of tangible afterimage clones at any given time. Upon the final post, Nero ends with a continuous stream of executed Utsusemi until his opponent appears to be surrounded and fires a relentless stream of bullet shaped Naraku Furea blasts.
