Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Haru Ulakatstu(oo-lah-kaht-tsu)

Aliases/ Nicknames: N/A

Age: 1,721 (looks like in his early twenties)

Gender: Male

Physical Description: His eyes have a dissarming way to them. He has a short thin nose that seems to be as keen as a hound's due to the fact that it twiches when some one comes near. He walks in a manor that says he won't begin a fight but if need be he'll end one. Has odd tatoos on the palms of his hands. No one has any idea what they are. (Well, minus Haru of course). Has green eyes that seem filled with wisdom. He has Silver hair tied back in a short ponytail. He's 5'11" and weighs 138 lbs.

Personality: Has an odd calm about him as if nothing phases him. Has been known to kill anyone who annoys him, but seeing that it's only possible to annoy him if your trying verry hard to. He rarely kills anyone. He has a habit to stand in one place and stare into the distance. He also says things in a way that makes him seem older and wiser, however he can also be annoyingly modest. He's quite clever when in danger.


Biography/History:
"Life"- Son of a master swordsman he trained from a young age to be a strong fighter. Died at the age of 27.
Early Soul Society- When Haru was training in one of the citys in the soul society a while back he saw soul reapers fighting a big and verry powerful hollow and ran to their aid. At first they told him to run, but he did no such thing he ran towards it and when it swong an arm at him he Flash-Steped behind it and started whomping on it even though his sword didn't kill the hollow. he was able to buy some time for one of them to kill it from behind. After that day he joined the soul reaper academy and was top of his class. Haru was matched with Hakuyaga due to their mutuial lack of Kido.
In the 13 Court Guard Squads- Spared with other Squad members and won by letting them tire themselves and attacking when they were too tired to defend themselves. He used to be the captain of squad 11, but over time he decided that it was a bore so he left the soul scosity and be came a wanted man.
After the 13 Court Guard Squads- Being wanted he was forced to find a way to survive. Is almost imposible to find.



Skills/Abilities: One of the fastest people in the soul socity, Is resistant to low to mid level seals(Lvs 1-35). Also has an amazingly keen nose, eyes, and ears.

Zanpakuto
Sealed form: Twin katanas

Shikai:
Release Phrase: Awaken Hakuyaga
Sword form: Haru's Shikai is unique in that it can shift physical form, such as transforming into a parrying dagger, a shield, a kukuri, broadsword or any other plethora of forms. In itself it holds little in actual powers beyond the versatility of this shape changing capability making it an unpredictable multi-tool in combat only limited in shape by Haru's imagination.
Ability: can put oppents to sleep by turning a sword into a flute. It takes 30 seconds to kick in and it's duration can be anywhere from 15 minuties to 1 hour. Only works on hollows and Arancars not on other soul reapers.

Bankai:
Bankai Release Phase- When the myths come to life the blades shall Yawn, Bankai Hakuyaga.
Bankai Description- Haru's bankai becomes animated in that it can fight along side him without being directly wielded by his own hands and takes on up to ten forms. Each acts according to his will and may maneuver within 100 feet of him but is neither conscious nor able to react to anything that Haru himself does not notice (Such as a sneak attack). While no strength gain is harnessed as with most bankai the former stated versatility of forms combined with the sheer number of weapons and extended reach do to their animation makes the bankai a formidable talent to deal with.

Techniques:
(Haru has thousands of fighting styles, but these are his 3 most powerful)

#3 Impailing Strike sad Bankai) Binds his opponents with 1 of his swords while turning the other 9 in to spears killing his opponent. (Weak Point: if someone can hit haru from behind it will release the captured person.)

#2 Destroyer Fists sad Bankai) By binding with all 10 of his swords he increases his strength, speed, and senses 10 fold. (Weak Point: ??? [no one has seen it and lived])

#1 Blade Destroyer sad Bankai) He releases the spirits of his Zanpaku-to causing a big explosion then an even greater implosion leaving only a stone(?) that weghts about 28 tons, but in doing so kills himself. (Weak point: NONE, IF YOU SEE HIM USE IT RUN LIKE HELL.)

Thank you Sensei, I'll take over.

Alright Haru, I'm going to be finishing the review of your profile. As such you can feel free to pm me any questions or concerns, or you can post them here for me to answer (the latter is perferable). Hopefully we can make this a swift and gentle transition from the other guild.

First, for the sake of our other members, I would like you to put a pronounciation key next to your name as your last name seems a bit odd to say. On that note Japanese names are written "Last Name, First Name".

Moving on, you need an actual age. Try not to make it too young or too old. You can keep that Appearance Age, but put it underneath the real age (or age after death).

No offence, but we don't need your birthday. If you would like to include it, fine, but it's not really needed.

In this guild we require the physical description to be at least one full paragraph. This means 6-8 well written sentences. These should include your height, weight, distinguishing marks, hair color, eye color and anything else pertinent. Yes, that means you'll have to take away the list. Sorry about that.

'Odd tattoos' should be placed under your physical appearance. Special accessories would be like if you have body jewelry, or a special ring, hidden daggers, a med kit. You know, that sort of thing.

You will need to add a lot more to your personality. Try to go into depth with it. What would Haru do in a number of situations? How is he around women (or men). What gets under his skin? Is he loud or quiet; a drinker or an outcast? Remember, when people interact with you they will go to your profile to see what Haru is like so it should give them a good idea of what he's like.

For your history you will need to add a LOT more. There is no such thing as an 'unknown' past in this guild. At least, not in the profiles. You will need to give a background for what Haru was like when he was alive as this will set the basis for what he is like as a shinigami. For the second part of your history you will need to rethink it. Flashstep is something reserved for higher seats in this guild (generally around 5th but it depends on your captain) So you'll need to take that out. Next you will need to expand a lot more. Detail is essential. Oh, and you don't get 'partnered up' with your zanpukatou spirit. They are a part of who you are. And you certainly wouldn't know their name whilst in the Shino Academy. If I were you, I'd probably just scrap the whole thing and start over from scratch.

You should also split up skills and abilities. Why, you ask? Because skills and abilities are two different things. Skills would be like Haru being a good cook, or really good at cross stitching or painting. You could also group having a keen nose under this category. Abilities would be out of body feats such as shunpo, shunko ect. Think of abilities as things using reiatsu. Oh, and you are by no means one of the fastest people in the Soul Society. I know everyone likes to say that so I don't blame you but you will need to remove it. ((On a separate note shunpo isn't measured in 'speed'. All shunpo move at the same speed. The difference comes with how many steps it takes to reach a given spot.))

Sorry but you will not be resistant to binding kidou any more than any other shinigami would. Especially not bakudo as high as the seventies.

I'll leave it at this for now, but we'll need to work on your zanpukatou as well.

Oh, and a quick suggestion. Run your profile through a word document so you can check it for spelling and grammar errors.

Redited (Minus Personality)

Please read this again as you don't seem to have gotten everything I've addressed. Also, 6,000ish would be a bit rediculous as your character is just coming from the Shino Academy. Unless they failed a few thousand times, 6,000 years old just seems.... out there. Hell, even our resident Vaizard leader is only a bit over 3,000.

Please read the thread for BnK on the main page please. I specifically laid out that you need to write your character as a graduate of the Academy until further notice. However, if you want an ex-Shinigami/Rouge, you may. They cannot have Shikai or Bankai and must be edited to have only Academy level status until further notice. I'm sorry, but I've already made it clear in that thread. Please understand, we are not taking a character that has all of their powers unlocked from BnK and just letting them run around here without training for anything. That would be unfair and irresponsible on our part. Until we've had a chance to role play with you and can see how literate and responsible you are, remove the use of Shikai, Bankai, Shunpo and Kidou over eleven in your profile.

Please listen to Kyros as well. He's already reviewed your profile. If he's asking you to review something in it and reword or edit, please do.

Seriously. I'm not going to negotiate over this. Either don't have it, fill it in, or if you haven't put any thought into it yet, put WIP. Did you even read the advisory under bio that I took the time to CAREFULLY spell out casually so this kind of thing wouldn't happen?

Well as long as you aren't coming up with nonsense that makes you seem supremely important, or just add a bunch of techniques you haven't actually trained for, you can't really make a god-mod out of your profile.

I'm not a profile mod but a quick note.

For your shikai, you need to clearly label your attacks, and for putting someone to sleep, that is a godmod move that doesn't match your general theme.

And your bankai has 10 distinct forms, label those. Also I am not sure if they will allow that at all.
