Name:Loki Heartnet
Aliases/ Nicknames: The Trickster
Physical Description: He is a lean guy, he doesn't look to be very strong physically and is instead built for speed, he also has a tattoo over his heart. He has jet black hair two fluffy black ears and he is usually smiling. He has orange eyes
Zanpakuto: http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s273/haseoxx/azurekite.jpg
Zanpakuto name: Kaze no Stigma and Konpeki Kaen, Kaze and Kaen for shortZanpakuto Spirit: http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c76/Islander1414/firehugblue.jpgZanpakuto Shikai abilities: When the Shikai form is activated, his Zanpakuto becomes invisible because the wind allows it to do so,it also changes in lenght making the enemy unable to predict the attack easily, the blade can cut through most things easily. He can track others using his wind based abilities and make a shield of sorts against physical attacks, though it's not inpenetrable. In other words Wind manipulation at it's peak. Though not primarily an offensive Zanpakuto it is still quite formidable with the right strategies. Once activated it performs an automatic kekkai able to sense things around 1KM or 2KM at most of distance from the user, it can be used for tracking, it can use flight, difract light making the user invisible in a way in the case that he wants to run away, though if looked at carefully you can see the wind shimmering, it's only unoticeable from a long distance and impractical for battle usage and he can also focus air/wind pressure, by lowering air pressure it can also make others faint, though this takes a while to actually take effect and it's more for stealth rather than a battle. It might not be the strongest but it is definitively the fastest element to handle, meaning that instead of taking on an attacker at full offensive it simply strikes before the opponent can charge up his attacks. This aspect of the Zanpakuto is made more as the support ability.
His second sword makes it so that his blades catch on Azure Fire that is much stronger than foxfire or any normal fire, it's abilities are boosted by his wind abilities and he can freely control the fire itself apart from being able to use it with his blades. .The effect of the blue fire offers protection from fire(It wouldn't do if he burned himself right?)
The fire's range is (0-100m) Bankai: UNACHIEVED During bankai his eyes turn blue and his Zanpakuto dissolves completely and Loki gains full control of the winds, making him able to even summon up massive storms
The Final Form of zanpakuto has two forms and names, one is the Azure Flame God,, which causes the user himself to be engulfed and unaffected by the flames themselves and all heat from external sources, he can manipulate the flames freely to a greater extent, rather than simple streams, fireballs or just figures and instead make the fire come to life for short periods of time, his phisical aspect also changes making him stronger, he looks kinda like this:
The second one is called Thanatos, a guardian type transformation using wind in order to use extreme speed and make his strikes unseen by most. In case he is struck he is surrounded by small guardian shields, should the last one break, the bankai form will dispell. His special abilities include sword mastery. Wind manipulation, making him able to summon up storms and tornados in an instant, he also has great strenght and his defensive capabilities are nothing to laugh about
Special Accessories: Kitsune ball, an item all kitsune carry. He shaped it as a small earring to keep it safe and hidden
Skills: He is a skilled and well rounded martial artist, he's a good strategist and knows how to act well, although his swordsmanship is lacking. A practitioner of Xinyi Liuhe (心意六合, Heart and Mind Six Harmonies), the Henan Branch of Xingyiquan (形意拳), one of the three main internal styles and an anti-weapons specialist .
Abilities: He is naturally very agile and smart, he has good reflexes and great hearing. He also has a good nose. Another ability is to morph between human and fox form, he can also do a partial transformation regarding his human and fox form
Personality: Loki likes to flirt quite a bit, he's not one to back down from anything and he likes to take initiative on things. He is not a leader or a team player, he dislikes taking on responsability for others and prefers working alone.
Biography/History: A kitsune spirit that lived for a few 10,000 years or so, he was a void and wind elemental kitsune, he liked playing pranks and was killed by a myobu, because he himself is a nogitsune and thus went against Inari's will. During his life he wasn't one to show off, reveal his precense or get involved with others, he prefered to relax and trick others and watch as his pranks took their desired effect, he manipulated catastrophic events behind the scenes for his own amusement and spread chaos for the fun of it. He used to be a nine tailed nogitsune, which was extremely rare for his kind seeing as they were usually one-tailed. As it is, he isn't looked well upon even by nogitsune, seeing as he has had too much impact upon the human world. It is unknown how he obtained so many tails in such a short amount of time(for a nogitsune) but upon his death his power was taken and now he is currently on the process of getting back two of his nine tails. His normal humanoid appearance is that of a young black headed male with amber eyes, he also likes to use his female form.
.
Powers: Kitsune-Bi= Blue fox fire, a natural ability for all kitsune(All)
Transformation= Another skill most Kitsune possess(All)
Void elemental control(Out of Battle/Undecided)
Manipulation- He mastered the skill of mental suggestion at a young age(Out of Battle)
Illusion- He can cast a few illusions like all kitsune and has mastered it enough to bend reality to his will(Limited in battle/ expandable Out of battle)
Kitsune Illusions(how they work in actual mythology)-To a kitsune, their illusions are reality. What they make, for them, and for others, is as real as anything found or crafted in nature. Anything that a kitsune builds or transforms, becomes what the kitsune desired. A kitsune can make people, animals, and objects, which can't be distinguished from the real thing.
The more kitsune team up to make things, the more can be made. A handful of kitsune can build a city if they desired.
Transformation- As a Kitsune he can transform into anything, from a rock to a person, but even if he IS transforming into someone else he does not gain the person's innate abilities

Name: Mitsuomi Takayanagi
Aliases/ Nicknames: God of Fighting/ Prince of Flash
Zanpakuto: Mitsuomi's zanpakuto is named Prince of Flash. Unlike most Soul Reapers, who can seal their zanpakuto after releasing it, Mitsuomi's zanpakuto is always in its shikai form. The appearance of Prince of Flash is the same as Sephiroth's Masamune, which has an extremely long blade. The only difference is that Prince of Flash's hilt is the same color as Mitsuomi's hair. Prince of Flash's spirit takes the form of a more stronger/mature version of Mitsuomi himself. Prince of Flash's special ability is unkown. Prince of Flash's bankai, named God of Flash, is a compression of his spiritual pressure rather than a vast expansion as is usually the case. By compressing his power, Mitsuomi can move at incredibly high speeds.
Skills: Mitsuomi is a genius when it comes to the martial arts. Without practice he is able to see a technique and execute it better than the original.
Abilities: Mitsuomi is skilled in the use of flash steps, a high speed movement ability. Mitsuomi is also skilled with flash release, a technique that combines hand-to-hand combat and kido spells.
Personality: Mitsuomi is a composed yet cocky individual. He sees a challenge as an opportunity to get stronger, even when he knows the odds are against him sometimes.
Biography/History: He's done it! This boy who nobody knew about until a few moths ago has broken the 100m world record!
.
.
.
3 days later Mitsuomi was riding his Hyabusa to high school down the highway. He was going pretty fast because he had slept in and was already going to be late for 1st period. That's the last thing the fastest man in the world can remember before waking up in Yoruichi Shihoin's arms. From that day on he has trained under his Senpai, Yoruichi Shihoin.
Powers: When faced with what Mitsuomi thinks is a life-threatening situation, Mitsuomi will unleash a monstrous amount of spiritual pressure in his body which increases his power/speed to an unbelievable height, even for Bleach. Not only does his power/speed increase greatly, but his appearance does as well. When in this "rage" Mitsuomi's hair spikes up, his eyes lack irises, his muscles all burst with spiritual pressure so great that it surrounds his body and makes contact with whatever he hits instead of his actual fist.

Name: Haishiro Imitsu [imitsu is a way to say 13, or 1 and 3 in Japanese. Haishiro means "Snow and Ash" [Snow-White; Ash-Black]
Accessories:Brown bag full of things
Personality: The first thing to point out about Haishiros personality is he harbors deep affections for Rhia kuchiki, bordering on romantic love. He is deeply grieved when she dies. His lackadaisical nature and carefree outlook spew indifference to the point where it is overbearing, and it tends to get on others' nerves. Despite his initial introduction as a lethal foe, Haishiro later begins to play the role of the anti-hero. Haishiro keeps a calm demeanor in stressful situations. He has a bad problem with chronic tardiness always being late for a meeting, event, or spar. His only desire as a shinigami is to capture rats for his experiments, and he see's everything from his teammates, to the other squads as simply being in the way. When Rhia died he became an extremely mature and calm individual, a state that is slightly at odds with his somewhat punk-like appearance. He usually takes responsibility, and tends to avoid violence when possible. He seems to be virtuous, much like his captain's image; their views often coincide.
Appearance: Weight: 300 kg ,Height: 188 cm, Blood: D, Birthday: Dec 2nd, he's 17, that’s probably 100 in shinigami years. He has messy jet black long hair. He has orange eyes including his third one. Haishiro wears a shinigami attire, including the tabi and sandals. he also has a chain on his chest exactly like a lost soul. Haishiro also has shark like teeth. His rieatsu is orange when its spewing out of him. Black hair, orange eyes, and he carries his sword on his back. He has a third eye on his forehead, only visable when he opens it.
Special Accessories: His lil pet "Neko"... a half bunny/teddy-bear stuffed animal with a mod soul inside. Haishiro found him while he was traveling back and forth through the Karakura Town and soul society. Neko is child-like in most aspects, as he is small, creepy, mysterious, and cheerful. he is often seen latched onto or in Haishiros bag, its somewhat territorial about this position.Haishiro usually calls him dweeb, homunculus, hey you.
Skills/Abilities: Besides having a prodigious control over reflexes, Haishiro is a martial artist, and is excellent at multitasking. He's extensively trained in martial arts, particularly French kick-boxing or savate, Bajiquan, Boxing, Dambe, Fistfight, Fujian White Crane, Karate, Kenpo, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Shaolin kung fu, Taekwondo, Tangsoodo, and Wing Chun. Which coupled with his thieves training and natural human abilities, makes him a superhuman combatant. He is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant, utilizing street-fighting techniques and acrobatics. Haishiro’s skill with his sword is at the master level, letting him strike multiple times with changes of attack type [from slash to pierce] without any difficulty. His skills and strength with his sword make it so he always fights with one hand free. He only uses both hands when faced against opponents he feels will kill him. Haishiro is good at catching his bait. He portrays the reflexes like a cat and hes a good marksman
Zanpakuto:[achieved]
Haishiros sword seems to already be in its shikai form, a wooden bokken. The blade is 30 inches, with the tsuka being 10 inches, Overall the zanpakuto 40inches. The average weight of it is 17.7oz. The material of the blade is Red Oak. Its a strong natural hardwood and morphed to look, feel and work like a real Samurai Katana. This Bokken has a smooth and sleek feel, well weighted and balanced, making it a great bokken. When fighting hell lace it with a sharp concentrated reiatsu to keep it from getting sliced in half.
Shikai:[achieved]When his shikai is activated he has the ability to wield wood. By channeling his reiatsu into it to make it move, shape, or change its mass. Haishiro knows that its the weakest element to have in the soul society. Though, that is why he fights, to prove he has the strongest element. Besides his natural ability over wood he has his maine three techniques...
shapeshift: Haishiro will lace himself with a layer of wood and change into different character
clone: A flow of liquid like wood will ooze out of Haishiros neck creating another clone of himself. Haishiro can only make one. This is usually so he can be in two places at once.
spliter:
Biography/History: Haishiro died as a baby, and thus was a baby in Soul Society. When he began to grow, people recognized his immense spiritual energy, so he was raised under the patronage of the Shiba family. He grew up along side Kukaku, selling fireworks. One day, a group of Menos Grande managed to break into the furthest districts of the Rukongai, where Haishiro and Kukaku were hawking their wares. The two tried to hold a menos back by firing fireworks at it. They were attacked and Kukaku ended up losing her arm. After that, Haishiro entered the shinigami academy and became the 4th seat of Rhia kuchiki 2nd Division. At some point while on patrol in the human world, he was attacked by a Quincy, who robbed him of his shinigami powers. He then volunteered himself to be the first to undergo the power retrieval process developed by Urahara that was later used on Ichigo. It failed and Haishiro resumed his seat in Division 2. He became a willing subject of Urahara's experiments.
Powers:
Collection of homade poisons-He keeps in his brown bag.
Sai (塞, Restrain) — Locks a target's arms in place behind their back
Hainawa (這縄, Crawling Rope) — An energy rope entangles a target's arms.
Seki (斥, Repulse) - Creates a round shield that seems to temporarily paralyze and repel whatever strikes it.
Geki (撃, Strike) — Engulfs a target in red light, completely paralyzing them.
Hōrin (Disintegrating Circle)
Shō (衝, Thrust) — Pushes the target away from the caster.
Byakurai (白雷, Pale Lightning) - The user fires a concentrated, powerful lightning bolt from their finger. Rukia Kuchiki and Byakuya Kuchiki both used this spell and rarely other shinigami as well.
Shunpo (瞬歩, Flash steps), a movement technique that allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow.[2]. The focal point that determines the bases of this technique is speed. As speed is the main point of the technique the method is best characterized by how fast one can get from point A to point B in the least amount of steps.
Blood type D-Haishiro went through a process of draining all his blood and replacing it with the one he made. The way it works is when Haishiro is cut he sends his reiatsu to the spot to where theirs blood leaking out at it hardens, the blood dosnt stop coming out it just comes out a much more slower rate so he wont die of blood lost so quickly.

Name: Taishiji
Birth Date: 1166 Heian Period
Death Date: 1185 first year of Kamakura Shogunate.
Sex: Male
Nicknames: Tai
Appearance: Over the countless years in which he existed in a spiritual stasis, Taishiji has gone through many changes, essentially shifting from what use to be a feudal age aesthetic, to a more modern one. However, there are still many things about him which have stayed the same, all of which are his core traits, which have been with him since birth. Taishiji’s eyes are a soft brown color, a few shades lighter than the average male of his time period, just enough to make a clear distinction from the darker brown which surrounds his iris. At a typical state of being they often give off the feeling of absolute calm bordering upon slight boredom, however when it comes to his duties or other work related matters there emerges a palatable focus and drive. His hair style to better fit with contemporary times is of medium length and pitch black in color, and while it is not ever really combed with the desire to be neat, it has been trained into a sort of ordered chaos (a style element which he has picked up from observing youths emulating rock idols). His facial features speak to the time in which he was born and which he lived, while it is strong there are no particular hardness to his features, but there is always a sense of purpose carried there. Some have even paid him the compliment of handsome, but it is not something he pays any sort of particular attention to. His body is that of someone who was well trained in life, in both the art of the sword, but also that of the open hand, in accordance to his duties in life it was demanded that his strength not impede his ability to move swiftly, so his build over all is between slim and medium. His skin holds a light tan quality to it, and upon his body there are the remnants of scars acquired in the line of duty, permanent reminders of mistakes he had made, in addition to these natural reminders, there is an artificial one, one tattoo; a reminder as to how he died.
Rank: Unseated Squad 2 Member
Zanpacto: Bearing the name Kunimitsu, Taishiji’s Zanpacto is in the design of the Tachi blade, widely known as the predecessor of the katana. Even in unreleased form its quality in life was that of a masterwork sword, and that very same blade used in life followed with Taishiji’s spirit to the Soul Society. There is however one key difference which makes this blade different from those in it’s time, and that are the clasps which originate from the tsuba and attach themselves to the sheathe, holding blade within sheathe securely, unless he undoes the clasps. The blade Kunimitsu holds within it an intense understanding and appreciation of the art of the sword and the spirit of combat. It’s elemental charge is that of wind.
Shikai- (Not Achieved) “Kunimitsu, whisper your vengeance upon the wind”
Upon drawing his Zanpacto from the sheathe, there is no immediately apparent difference in shape, color, or design. However, as soon as the Kunimitsu draws upon the element of which it is attune to, the blades attains a solid gray color, with blue and white lines originating all along the edge of the blade, sweeping along the surface of the blade as if they were flames licking the Zanpacto. The tsuba also remains the same as it did prior to the Shikai activation.
Though while able to create and manipulate the element of wind, all of Taishiji and Kunimitsu’s techniques are at their most powerful when drawing upon what already exists around them, gathering in air, converting it into wind and retaining that gathered power to later unleash it, though while in Shikai form is limited to three different techniques. Depending upon how much power he wishes to manifest in his attacks, the force of the gathering can become more and more noticeable, in mild situations causing tangible currents, and in more extreme cases ushering violent gusts of wind. Thus the strength of the gathering is directly proportionate to the output which Taishiji and Kunimitsu can use at their discretion. However, this stored elemental energy cannot be held onto indefinitely, much like the nature of the wind it will dissipate over time if not used.
Wrath’s Whisper:
Preparation: This technique requires Kunimitsu to be within the sheathe, causing an air tight seal. Typically Taishiji will leave one strap still attached to the sheathe, so that when he draws upon the blade, the wind energy which is drawn upon it can be compressed upon the blade cleanly and completely. Depending upon the power he wishes to apply to the technique the more violently Kunimitsu draws upon the wind, more violently with more power. As soon as Kunimitsu is drawn completely from the sheathe, Wrath's Whisper has been successfully called upon, forming an additional and visible edge upon Kunimitsu.
Implementation:
Attack Variant 1: The first variation Taishiji can expell from Kunimitsu's edge the wind energy towards his opponent. For all intents and purposes creating a projectile form wind blade. The sharpness and power of which is dependent upon the energy put into it, and while it can cut through a wide variety of material, if it makes contact with other soul weapons it can be split in half, and while both parts may still deal damage the power is reduced.
Attack Variant 2: The second variation calls for Taishiji to retain the energy upon Kunimitsu, adding to the sharpness of the edge as well as a few inches to the length, the issue with this technique is the time limit imposed up it. The integrity of the technique diminishes each time it strikes or blocks another soul based weapon, ultimately even if no contact is made with another weapon the technique will wear off as the energy naturally whisps off of it.
Sage’s Whisper:
Preparation: This technique is based upon the fundamental principles of the Wrath’s Whisper, however it is not restricted to emanating from the sheathe, but is more affective if it does. Much like it draws in wind, however instead of forging itself upon the blade edge of the sword it does so upon the dull side of the sword at which point Sage's Whisper is ready for use.
Implementation: Sage's whisper acts as a method by which Taishiji may increase the speed and force of his normal attacks. It does this by expelling the gathered force from the blade, starting from the hilt to the tip, creating a balanced distribution of added force and speed. However depending upon how much energy he gathers for the technique it can limit the range of attacks available to him, sometimes forcing Taishiji to use his left hand as additional support and stability.
Bankai- (Not Achieved)
When called into Bankai form, Kunimitsu transforms completely; the blade itself is the first to transform, becoming nearly two and a half times it’s original side and becoming nearly transparent, whisps of white and silver outlining the defining edges and lines through out, in addiction to this, in addition to this upon his right and left arms white and blue colored armor resembling that of the samurai armor used back during Taishiji’s living time, providing additional protection to his hand, forearm, upper arm and shoulder. This is the complete Bankai transformation of Kunimitsu, but at the same time it is a reminder of the old armor that Taishiji once wore.
Unlike the Shikai form, the Bankai form can draw upon the wind much easier and can retain the greater amounts of power even without use of a sheathe. In Bankai the attacks which were available at the Shikai stage can be performed much faster and with greater repetitive fluidity, while at the same time adding a few more techniques to Taishiji’s arsenal. The additional advantage to the Bankai state is that the gathering becomes far less apparent than in the Shikai stage, and while it can still call upon great gusting winds, even more violent than Shikai stage, it can unleash power as suddenly and as violently without much warning.
Demon’s Whisper:
Preparation: Demon's Whisper begins with the gathering of wind energy onto the Bankai's blade, much like Wrath’s Whisper, there appears an additional and visible edge. However due to it's increased size it does not begin from within the sheathe, yet still holds the ability to condense the air just as well if not better than the Shikai state originating from the sheathe.
Implementation: Demon's whisper launches a wind blade like Wrath's Whisper however when making contact with the target the once condensed wind erupts violently upon the target and creating a concussive force upon the target. In extreme cases the victim can be lifted and thrown by the force of the technique, and in mild cases the victim may be forced to stagger or slide backwards. This is however chiefly dependent upon how much power is put into the technique and the spiritual resilience of the target.
Ravager’s Whisper:
Preparation: This technique is one of Taishiji’s more dangerous techniques and is a two part attack, in which preparation and implementation can cause injury to the opponent, holding Kunimitsu in a defensive stance he suddenly draws in wind as violently as possible; this process alone can cause lacerative wounds upon the opponent of varying damage, once the blade is infused with sufficient energy, the Ravager's Whisper preparation is complete.
Implementation: As soon as the sufficient amount of energy is gathered, it is then forced out even more violently than it was drawn in and is focused upon the victim, the damage caused by this technique can be substantial, due to the fact that along with just the raw power of the wind, debri can also be picked up and hurled towards the victim. This however being one of his most powerful attacks cannot be performed as quickly as the others, and is often best used when the opponent is either recoiling or not within immediate reach of Taishiji.
Destroyer’s Silence:
Preparation: This technique is Taishiji’s most devastating and final last ditch effort technique. Holding Kunimitsu out to his side there is a surge of violent, near storm force winds which erupt from the Kunimitsu, and then there is complete calm, there is no wind, not a breeze, and for a moment there isn’t even sound to be carried. This initial action taken is the preparation for the attack, creating the five blades during the expulsion of wind from Kunimitsu.
Implementation: Then one after the other, four out of five phantasmal blades fire with great speed from behind Taishiji with as much strength and integrity as his shikai strength Zanpacto towards the victim, capable of cutting through any material and causing extreme damage to the victim, then as if purposefully delayed, the final fires towards the victim, yet carrying a strength closer to that of the Bankai form. Each of these are however not invisible, but quite difficult to see.
Special Accessories: N/A
Skills: As he was a for all intents and purposes a spy in life Taishiji is well versed in information gathering techniques, in addition to this, seeing that he was born and died in a war time era his battle awareness , situational awareness and skill are a strong tribute to the life he lived, and the after life which he seeks to continue to exist in.
Abilities: Taishiji is well trained in his swordsmanship, but also in the fundamentals of hand to hand combat in case he were to ever be separated from his sword for any reason. In addition to this, due to his duties while living, Taishiji is very intelligent and quite agile, which was often more necessary than his blade to insure his survival when he was still living. And like most who found themselves upon the battle field, or on the edge of life and death many times in their lives his physical strength and toughness have been finely cultivated and strongly refined.
Bio: Taishiji was born into a time marked by war and bloodshed, into a family steeped in it for many a generation, a family in which every child was expected to learn to carry on the legacy of the family, even if that child was not in line to succeed as the families head. Taishiji was one of those children not in line for succession, but despite this his father pushed him harder and harder every day as if his only son was going to take the reigns of the family one day. In these times it was the nature of children to follow the orders of their parents, Taishiji was no exception to this, every day he obediently and happily obeyed his fathers commands, following his fathers instructions to the letter, wanting to make his father, who had never been one of the higher ups in the family, as proud as if he had been his entire life. It was not an easy life, but in the times in which he grew up, it was the law of nature that those who were strong would continue to live and those who were weak were destined to serve the strong, or to perish beneath their might.
And while it was a necessity, there was a certain pride that was attached to everything he learned, everything he practiced, and everything he came to represent. Day in and day out he trained harder and harder, and it wasn’t until he was fifteen years old, the first year of the Genpei war that he was called into service of the Minamoto clan. While his family had been a long time retainer of the clan, it was only recently that their services were being called upon. To go into the territories controlled by the enemy Taira clan, and to gather information as to their troop movements, strategies and battle plans, and when the time came for it to capture and interrogate high ranking officials before killing them. Yet as the war had dragged on the need for Taishiji’s families services grew, there were simply too many fronts for only the most experienced of the family to go exclusively, so it began to fall on the shoulders of the next generation to pick up the slack to help further the ambitions of the Minamoto clan.
Without hesitation or fear Taishiji set out on mission after mission, traveling from province to province, sending messages and progress reports back to his lord via messenger, all for the pride of his family, all for the honor of his father. And while every mission he undertook was a success there were many instances when he found himself on the edge of life and death, and in some cases barely managing to pull through, to escape with his life, only to recover and lay it upon the line once more. As the years went on, he became more and more skilled at his job and was placed on even more and more dangerous assignments, and as time passed he began to think less and less of the home that he had left behind and more instead on every passing day, the struggle for survival becoming the only thing which weighed upon his consciousness when there were not the details of an assignment filling that space. Quickly he grew out of the mind set of a young man, and the happy nature of his eyes was replaced by one far more serious.
However, there was something more that began to occupy his thougts, sometimes amidst the battle, amidst the bloodshed he sometimes saw things which could not be considered to be anything else but monsters, and while for the most part they seemed to be occupied ravaging the blood stained grounds searching for something, there were times in which they had turned upon him. Speaking of things which made no sense to him, threatening to devour him, lusting after his body and spirit. Time after time he was forced to defend himself against this creature which power was unlike any that he had seen before, and none of them held any fear of dying, they had no sense of mortality, they only kept coming, they kept pressing forward. But every time that it seemed that one of the beasts would end his life, he was saved by a man or a woman, dressed in all black attire. The whole situation was so fantastical that he often put off what he saw as nothing more than dreams. But perhaps more accurately they were nightmares, there was no such thing as these beasts, there was no such thing as the savior in black. But yet these "dreams" stuck with him, and the more often they occured, the more real they became to him and the harder they were to deny.
And when the war came to an end, it was too late to salvage anything of those years which had been devoted to bloodshed. With the war won, and the new order on the horizon, many began to find out that there was no place for them there. That the memory of their actions was to be only that, a memory, and not a living one. Taishiji came to find this out after he completed what he had been told was his final assignment before he could finally go home. He had managed to procure information on the fleeing brother of the soon to be Shogun, information pertaining to the travel method, destination, and estimated arrival in the later to be killed Yoshitsune. As he stood upon the vacant road and handed the messenger the scroll containing the information, six men emerged from the brush, all of whom bearing upon their clothing the seal of the new Shogun. As Taishiji reached for the hilt of his blade one of the men held out his hand and spoke,
”This is the way that it must be, there is no place for you in this new world. You have served your master well, now please, end your own life, or allow us to take yours. You will be taken home to your family a hero, and they will be compensated for your loss in gold.”
Releasing the handle of his blade Taishiji smiled again, for the first time in four years, a smile came upon his features. The realization that he would never see his father again hitting him hard, and mixing in with the values which had been so enforced upon him and which he had so believed. He had brought honor to his family, he had helped bring victory to the clan which had for so long retained his family. And now it was the final order he was being given, to give up his life. He had survived for so long, and now he was being asked to simply pass away. A single tear rolled down his cheek as he allowed his hands to fall to his sides,
”You’ll see me soon father, I hope my face can bring you joy, and the news of my success bring you the honor you have so deserved.”
Closing his eyes he felt a blade pierce his skin, sinking through his chest and exiting his back, warm blood began to soak his clothing as he fell to his knees. His vision began to blur as blood began to drip from his lips, slowly he began to slump forward and before him there was one of the beasts which had haunted his dreams only to be slain by one of the saviors in black. He saw nothing more, his head lay upon the road, severed by the swift stroke of the blade of the Shoguns men. His body was taken back to his father, and the gold delivered as promised, but it did not bring happiness to his fathers eyes, only tears for his son, whom had “fallen in battle” on his last mission.
The next thing he knew, Taishiji found himself in some sort of bubble from which he could not leave, nor could he truly move, shrouded completely in darkness. But for some reason there was a feeling of calm within him, the darkness bothered him not and neither did his solitude. Looking down to where he had been stabbed, the wound hard been healed and turned into a scar, the pain from the sword plunging through his chest was no more. Then suddenly he could see again, the darkness was replaced by visions of conflicts, visions of war, between men, between monster and shinigami, and for the next eight hundred plus years he was made to watch them, he was made to see all of the violence and all of the bloodshed that man, beast and god were capable of. It was as if he was being tested, as if he was being asked that this life which he was being taken towards was the one that he wanted, having been born into war and violence, was the afterlife of the shinigami one that he wanted.
Through everything he continued to watch, unblinking as the atrocities continued to grow and the tools of war and murder gew and evolved. Even in his life he could not have imagined all of the things that he saw unfold before him, and yet he found himself wanting more and more to be one of those saviors in black, those angels of death, he found himself wanting to fight again to protect something, to protect his beliefs, and the lives and after lives of others. And at the same time he felt something growing within him, something that from time to time, usually at the culmination of greater conflicts, or at the more horrific and painful parts of history began to pulsate within him which often threatened the stasis which he found himself in and tugged at what seemed to be a balance of light and darkness which lay within him. But always he managed to bring it under control, to manage whatever it was that had grown in him over the hundreds upon hundreds of years. And then after one final conflict he found himself once more bathed in darkness, and the walls of what had kept him in the stasis weaken, allowing him to move once more towards something new, and something different.
When he could see again, Taishiji was in a place that strangely felt like home, but was clearly anything but that. Before he could figure out where he was, a hand came to rest upon his shoulders and a deep voice echoed around him,
”In this place, there will always be use for one such as you. Are you willing to accept this new responsibility?”
”I am, I Taishiji take on this responsibility until I am no longer able.”
And with those few words exchanged Taishiji was sent to the Shinigami Academy to start the new chapter in his life.
Personality: Taishiji is a very hard worker and is very devoted to his new life and aspirations to his future position, and while at first he was stifled by the lack of social training he had received when he was a child, he began to learn to loosen up the longer he lived within the Soul Society, gaining a kind and calm demeanor, willing to help those who needed it, and going out of his way often to help those who did not yet know that they needed it. Even over time he began to learn how to tell jokes and to relax when there was time in between his missions and his responsibilities.
However, the aspect of his personality which would never change was his drive to complete missions to the fullest and to keep all mistakes to a minimum and the undying loyalty and devotion to those around him, whether they be above him or below him, and thus all those who came to be under him were treated to serious training, often more strenuous than they had ever received in life. He wanted none who stand along side him to fall to a silly mistake, to find themselves in positions which there were no solutions to. He wanted them to never felt as he did when he died, in a position forced to smile and forced to recall precisely what they had lived for and what they were dying for. And instead, if they were to die to do so in a glorious last effort, one that had been so shined upon in his time.
A lot of the time Taishiji can be found lost in thought, contemplating the life he has led ever since he came to reside within the Soul Society, contemplating the choices he has made, and the events which have come and gone. For memories he has come to treasure dearly, and treats them as if they were priceless. And more often than not he is willing to tell a story to anyone who is willing to listen.
