Welcome to Gaia! ::

It's deeeeeecember.

Question Time.

Can we make this into a general Hollow Q/A thread?

YES THIS IS THE BEST THREAD EVER!

Now I was just wandering one small thing. Hollows have shown an ability to have their zanpakto grow with their increase in spiritual power. I've seen Hollows changing their Zanpakto into different weapons before but I want to know, can we slowly evolve our weapons to make them say sharper, or with more blades?

Also. Can a Resurrecion evolve into something more powerful over time, like say every 3 or 4 months your powers could grow somewhat. So for instance say I have the power to shoot fireballs from my hands I could eventually evolve the power to shoot fireballs from my feet as well through a training session at some point or are all our powers final? We can't evolve steadily and gain more?

I was also thinking. Is there any restrictions on where you can fire ceros from or how you fire them?

Oh god I'm a terrible person sorry for asking so many stupid questions.

Actually that wasn't supposed to happen. I was asking about evolution. I've always believed the Arrancar to be a race that steadily evolves traits like new arms and suchlike.

So that's cool. Now I understand the power system, I'll just sit here and look at it until such which time that I think. Holy s**t that would be awesome and then I'll provide awesome reasons for stuff.

Anyway yes that did make sense. Should we all put on our profiles where we fire Ceros from? I really want to fire mine from my eyes now but I've already said Mouth and Finger, then I realised how much I love laser eye beams. Can I change mine?

But you still missed one question about evolving swords. I'd like to use Nnoitora as an example here. You can see that as he became more powerful, changing from Octava Espada to Curta Espada his Zanpakto got 4 more blades. So as for that question. Say I wanted to imply my character was becoming more powerful steadily, could I modify my weapon to grow a big spike or to grow larger?

Thanks for all yer' help of course.

Ah thank you then.

That's actually given me one theory on how the Segunda works. I'll add that to my list of theories.

I don't think I got anything else to ask.

@ Pad-- Care to elaborate on that theory? If it means anything, Temor is just as powerful as Jes since we're co-leaders. Primera and Segunda are just titles in my mind. He could as easily be the Primera as I could be Segunda, but I do more day-to-day admin stuff, so maybe that's why we're arranged the way we are. This was just Feiy's decision ^^

@ SDD (sorry for the abbreviation XD) -- If you like it better, you can just choose the number you like best and screw being someone's fraccion. I don't mind that and there are several rogue arrancar floating around.

As for the Espada thing-- it's good to RP and RP well. That's what Temor and I like to see best-- that you're RPing for the sake or writing a good story or battle rather than only RPing the bare minimum. It really depends on the style of contest we decide upon. Sometimes we'll ask for RP samples for a ranking contest. Sometimes it'll be a battle. Realize, of course, that in a battle, if it's a tough decision, we'll go outside of what's written and look at the RPer as a whole. We usually get things right and choose who we think is the best of the two in contest.

If all the Espada ranks are taken, you usually gain a seat by defeating an Espada in a formally-issue duel that's then judged by Temor and myself. Right now, we're in a bit of a sticky situation. Our Tercera rank is open, but we're debating what to do about this matter. We haven't come to a decision yet.

Did that help?

OOoh! *feels silly*

Well, yeah! Let's hear 'em! I'm curious.

I have a total of three different theories.

First: The theory you gave me. I'm colouring white as it contains info from the latest chapter which can be found here. http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/385-12/1

I believe that the Segunda Resurrecion is a reaction to the exsistence of Vaizards that can perform Resurrecion themselves, obviously the Arrancar need to be able to stay one step ahead. I believe that when a Arrancar is in the same area as a Shinigami being turned into a Vaizard they gain the Segunda as a way of becoming one step ahead of the Vaizards with their Resurrecion. I also believe this may be true of any Arrancar who is in the vicinity of a Vaizard performing Resurrecion. Just a few thoughts. You'll notice Ully isn't particularly good at using his powers in Segunda suggesting he gained them recently and not only that, he directly says he finds it hard to control his ultimate attack. It's a slightly broken theory, I'll agree to that but it's my theory number 1.

Number 2: When a pure soul takes over a Gillian it becomes capable of using Segunda. I believe due to a slight similarity in looks and the way he treats Orihime that Sora, Orihime's brother, is Ulqiorra. Notice how there hasn't been a single mention of Sora since he supposedly reached Soul Society. I find it hard to believe that Sora wouldn't have heard about his own sister invading Soul Society and have came to help her or something. For this reason I believe that he was devoured by a Gillian but his own strong spiritual power and senses allowed him to take over the body.

Number 3: It's a Vasto Lorde only move. Or a failed Vasto Lorde's move. See how Ully hits the boundary between bat and human in his Segunda. That is why I believe Segunda is what is achieved when a Hollow is about to become a Vasto Lorde but fails through some means.

One of these days. One of these days we'll see how it works.

Until then. It'll just have to be banned ;_ ;. Everything that's cool is banned. I really do play too much Disgaea.
