Basic Information

Name: Euthymias Hyaenidae
Gender: Male
Age: Looks young 20's, is 350
Appearance: Euthymias is rather diminutive, standing at only 5'3" tall.
Affiliation: Las Noches
Position/Rank: Segunda Espada
Numero: 93
Aspect of Death: Acceptance
Personality: To Euthymias, the world is a joke, and he is a jester. He, as many Arrancar are, is utterly devoid of all morals. However, unlike others, he revels in this fact, and enjoys taunting others, attempting to bring them down to his level. Everything seems to delight him, and he is in a constant state of laughter. Euthymias is utterly incapable of taking anything seriously.
History: Euthymias was, by all accounts, a completely ordinary Menos, with the only outstanding feature about him being his unusually high amount of Reiatsu that enabled him to quickly climb the Menos food ladder, allowing him to become a Vasto Lorde.

One hundred years after his birth from the mix of consciousnesses that make up a Gillian, Euthymias was approached by an Arrancar that referred to himself as Arturo, offering to turn Euthymias himself into an Arrancar. While Euthymias had heard of such beings, he was rather apathetic about the change, accepting for a reason unknown to any being, including himself. When questioned as to why, he merely states that a force compelled him to accept the offer.

Nearly 40 years later, when the Rebellion of Las Noches began, rather than choose sides, Euthymias would assist whoever at the time he found to be most likable. Due to his fickle nature, there were very few Arrancar who trusted him to handle jobs of any real importance, which limited the capacity he was used in the war. This suited Euthymias just fine, as he had no real concern over who was the leader.

When the Arrancar known as Cillian took the throne at the end of the revolution, Euthymias was delighted. He had known Cillian since before the Rebellion, and often likened them to two sides of the same coin. While both saw the meaninglessness of life, Cillian, to untrained eyes, seemed to despair, while Euthymias reveled in it. He now gladly works under Cillian, (usually) following his commands to the letter, grinning all the while.

Combat Information

Zanpakuto Name: Riendo Heridas
Zanpakuto Abilities: Riendo Heridas are incredibly sharp, able to cut through near anything - Euthymias has been able to cut through and destroy the Zanpakuto of lesser Shinigami. As long as the wounds remain open, the victim feels a deep-seated feeling of anxiety and hysteria.

Specialization: Close-Range Combat (Main), High Speed Combat (Secondary)
Known Techniques/Skills
- Sonido: Euthymias has an incredibly fast Sonido, second only to Esmeralda. Notably, he does not flicker into sight like other Arrancar, but will solidly appear, as though he were simply blinking into existence. Objects within ten feet of him will be blasted backwards with the force of his arrival. This force is enough to crack stones. However, Euthymias can only Sonido once every other post.
- Hierro: While he is not particularly skilled with the technique, Euthymias can harden his skin to be able to block strikes below Lieutenant level.
- Cero: In addition to his ordinary Cero, Euthymias has a unique Cero known as Penetrante Cero Lanza. This Cero takes a long time to charge (2 posts of uninterrupted charging) to be able to be fired at full strength. The effect is unlike any other Cero. A pencil-thin beam of Reiatsu is fired from the tip of Euthymias' finger. What makes this Cero unique is the fact that it will home in on the target it is fired at. The Cero can home in on any target in a 45 degree angle in front of Euthymias, and interestingly, leaves no collateral damage whatsoever, unlike other Ceros, which explode on contact.
- Pesquisa: Euthymias is utterly ignorant when it comes to the sensing of Reiatsu, and is unable to use Pesquisa.
- Close Range Combat: Euthymias's true strength lies in his ability to fight after closing any distance between himself and his target. Due to the short nature of his Zanpakuto, he constantly fights at a range that is usually reserved for hand-to-hand combat. At this range, Euthymias matches up against any Shinigami, including the 11th Division Captain.
- Risa Inquietante: When Euthymias laughs, everyone around him will begin to feel anxiety, as well as an instinct to simply lay down their weapons and accept their fate. Those with higher willpower can shake off this feeling.

Resurreccion Information
Name: Risa de la Hiena
Release Command: Howl
Resurreccion Techniques/Abilities

- Histeria Histéricos: An upgrade to Risa Inquietante, Histeria Histéricos causes Euthymias' laughter to cause anyone of low willpower to go temporarily insane, laughing along with him. Even those with strong willpower will have strong feelings of fear, revulsion, and an unwillingness to fight.

- Estampido Supersónico: The power of Euthymias' Sonido is increased, pulverizing rock and killing lower strength beings through the sheer force.

Segunda Etapa Status: [Achieved]
Segunda Etapa Name: Alucinación
Segunda Etapa Techniques/Abilities

- Reirán Conmigo: Euthymias' most powerful technique. When his Segunda Etapa is active, his laughter will pull everyone who hears it into a powerful hallucination. At first, this hallucination is rather minor, but very distracting. The illusions will shift and swirl about, never becoming quite solid. They will alternate between displaying to the victim some of their worst fears, and then images of their loved ones urging them to simply lay down arms and accept their fate. Any speaking sounds as though it is an echo from down a long hallway.

Any attempts made to physically interact with the illusion pull the victim deeper in, causing the illusions to become more solid, and sound as though they are getting closer in the hallway. After 5 attempts at interaction, the illusion will become indistinguishable from real life, and will become hostile to the victim, regardless of what form it takes. Though it can hurt the victim in this state, the damage is completely in their mind. If the victim continues to instigate interaction between themselves and the hallucinations, the hallucinations will grow stronger and stronger. At 10 interactions, the hallucinations are able to overpower the victim, and any harm they inflict will appear on the victim's body.

The only interactions that increase the hallucination's strength are ones instigated by the target - simply allowing the target to hit you does not count, for example. If the hallucinations are completely ignored for 5 posts, they will disappear, and the target will not be effected by Reirán Conmigo again until Euthymias exits and re-enters Segunda Etapa. Alternatively, if the target is able to laugh at along with Euthymias at any point, the hallucination will immediately end. If the victim is still trapped inside the hallucination when Euthymias exits Segunda Etapa, the effect ends.

- Hiena Blindado: Euthymias gains a suit of bone armor that is incredibly durable, able to stand up to even high-level attacks, when used in combination with his Hierro. When Hierro is not used, the armor is not as effective, though it will still protect him from and low-to-medium strength attacks.

Other Information: When consuming other Hollows, Euthymias will savor the mask, often carrying around the remains of kills to gnaw on when the mood strikes.

Methinks I'll take first stab....so here we go.

Dat Sonido, tho...to be able to so drastically affect his environment anytime he wants to go somewhere seems a bit excessive to me. While I have zilch to say about the speed, I can't feel comfy with that bit about such heavy damage.

Secondly, just wanna say that I like the idea of his laughter being able to so profoundly affect others. Ironically, it's making me smile as I type this. ANywhooo

Maybe tone down Riendo Heridas's resistance to healing a little bit. Would be kinda a serious recurring drag to have to drag the 4th Division Captain and Lieutenant just to heal something that'd otherwise be considered minor.

Finally...that killing laughter in his Segunda Etapa. While it seems well-balanced, something about it just makes me feel weird for some reason. Maybe one of the others can help me out here.

Maybe I can drop a fairly long cooldown on his sonido? Like, while he is the fastest, he takes a long time to be able to sonido again, maybe he can only sonido every other post, as opposed to the average shinigami, who can shunpo every post?

So, he essentially supposed to be the fastest Arrancar. Fair enough. I will buy that.

*However, being fast enough to inflict damage in a 10 feet radius from just appearing? That's unrealistic. Anyone with superior reiatsu to him would be unaffected essentially.

**Also, what happens if he does this? Jumping into active reiatsu at such a speed would probably cause him to crash and bounce off causing self-damage?

***Due to the amount of utility that having the fastest sonido causes, I'm going to have to ask on top of it being every other post that it has a cost of some sort. Either he can't cast charge a cero or something.

His cero... "pass through any defense". Uh... How about you reword that to most defenses. Because once again, your RPC's reiatsu is not superior to everyone elses, thus someone with greater reiatsu could use a shield of some form and stop that cero. It's always better to avoid absolutes in descriptions.

>>His resurreccion is kind of weak. We will need to do some serious work to limit it.

"Ability to cut through anything" on top of "wounds inflicted are slow to heal and resist any lower-level healing techniques". Furthermore, a passive "as long as the wounds remain open" - "feeling of anxiety and hysteria".

You will need to pick one passive out of all three of these.

1. See you've got a passive that makes his blade super effective at cutting. And a passive which reduces the effectiveness of healing. And a passive that whenever the blade inflicts a wound the victim is afflicted with anxiety and hysteria. I suggest you pick the third one, as it goes with your zanpakuto's overall feeling.

2. Esampido Supersonico - Your resurreccion alone would increase his speed. There's no point for an active ability to double his speed. He is already faster without a speed increase. This would effectively make him untouchable. I'm going to have to ask you rewrite this ability or just come up with a different one. It doesn't really go with the element of your resurrecion/segunda etapa anyway.

3. The general increase is understood. Make a new ability.

>>> Segunda Etapa. Okay, so, you went overkill on this one.

1. Reiran Conmigo - "Any non-Arrancar... laughter..." It should effect Arrancar as well, or explain why Arrancar are invulnerable. Also, does this mean Vizard are invulnerable as well, since Arrancar and Vizard are the same hat but different colors? "until the point wehre they can not only feel any attacks... wound will appear on them" No. I will accept the illusion disabling an RPC from battle. But, I will not accept it causing wounds on the body, unless they are virtually minor. You need to change that to where it doesn't afflict real wounds. "Removing them from reality". That also has to go. In this guild there is a rule against killing people's RPCs without their permission. This technique is essentially an auto-kill...

Furthermore, how will the victim know this is an illusion? What are the triggers/signals? Can allies rescue them? The post count is fine to show the progression of the ability. But, it seems virtually inescapable for people who just happen to not be that bright of an RPC. Which is unfair.

2. Hiena Blindado - You have hierro which can withstand attacks. What is the level of power of this defense? Is it capable of blocking up to level 80 hado? Something of that level? What penetrates it?

3. Again, the general increase is understood. Make a new ability.

Alright, working on it, I'll quote you again when I've smoothed out the stuff, just this confused me. Do you mean weak as in the colloquial term, like 'lame'? Cuz otherwise, it seems weird if you think it's weak that you think it should be limited more.

I meant he should have more versatility in terms of his powers. The way you had it set was like all of his power was that one attack. Everything else seemed sort of you know - meh.

I just want to help you out so you don't sell yourself short, but don't go too far to as well.

Alright, I've worked on it a bit, following some of your changes, but there are some I disagree with.

- I dropped the general increase stuff.

- Redid Reirán Conmigo from the ground up, same effect, just perhaps a bit better explained and not quite as strong for people ensnared in it. I disagreed with you thinking that the whole 'wounds appearing on the body' part having to go. That's one of the ones I mentioned to Feiyimei when hashing out this character in PMs, who didn't raise any objection. That's really an integral part of the ability.

Um, let's see what else.

- I got rid of the difficult to heal bit entirely, though I don't think it's unreasonable for an Arrancar's Zanpakuto to have more than one effect.

- I dropped the sonido speed boost for resurreccion, cuz you're right, that was unnecessary. However, I didn't get rid of the damage increase on it, but I did drop the power of the baseline impact as well as the resurreccion impact. Couldn't the idea that "Jumping into active reiatsu at such a speed would probably cause him to crash and bounce off causing self-damage." be applied to any speed techniques, be they Shunpo, sonido, or whatever it is that the Quincy do? I don't see why it would only effect my character, simply because his is faster. Also, I think the idea that it has a lessened effect against stronger people is understood, because otherwise you would have to put that as a qualifier for every attack.

- I better explained the strength of his Segunda Etapa Armor.

Alright. I'm happy you took my thoughts into consideration. As long as Feiyimei is okay with it, I'm fine. I just don't want people to cry about it.

You're right about any speed based attack in that regard. It's understood.

I don't see any other problems with it.

Yaroki just reminded me that the fastest Sonido user title was given to her (though I haven't really put that up in the ranks. gah) so my suggestion would be to have Euthymias' Sonido be second to Esmeralda's, but Euthymias' Sonido would still keep his destructive properties.

Is that fine for both of you?
