- Character Personality Savado is a pretty violent individual. His first reaction is and will always be, violence to any hostile situation. Never mind talking things out to reach in an understanding, their isn't a rational-thinking bone in his body. That isn't to say he's a completely mindless brute, he can take the time to think things through, he just chooses to follow his instincts above all else. It's like high-risk/high-reward mentality he chose to live by since he became a hollow many centuries ago.
In his down time, Savado is docile and calm. This is the best chance for anyone to approach him when their intentions aren't to fight. He becomes relaxed and tolerable which can make for a nice bonding situation for anyone seeking to learn more about him. Unfortunately, there isn't many times during the day when he is in this state of tranquility.

Life in Rukongai
Savado Mamoji was a special-bred child of Hokutan; part of West Rukongai. He grew up in the 3rd District with both parents and an older sister. Savado became very attached to his older sister Ukari, perhaps more-so than his mother. This being the case because his mother was usually out of the picture most of the time, leaving his father and sister to raise him. His father was a day-laborer, working odd-jobs for minimal pay. But the money he was making wasn't nearly enough to keep them housed in the 3rd District. His mother was a shinigami of the Gotei 13. Though secretive, his mother always managed to spend as much time with her family as possible.
One day, while he and his older sister Ukari were shopping for food, Rukongai was attacked by a hollow. In the midst of fleeing, Savado was driven to the ground, nearly run over by the stampede of terrified residents. Ukari ran back to save him, but as she reached him, the snake-shaped hollow, was already in the middle of striking at the young boy. However, instead of Savado being bitten, his older sister took the hit. The large fangs drove through Ukari's chest and her left shoulder. Her lifeless body was tossed away like a rag doll, leaving Savado grounded in shock. He was overcome by sadness at that point and could only convey that emotion by crying while the hollow steadily advanced on him. The one person he believed would always be there for him was snatched away just like that, leaving Savado to feel lonely all of a sudden. Not even the presence of shinigami would help him feel any less alone in this world. Since that point on, Savado believed he would have to fend for himself, even at this young age.
It has been 16 years since the death of his sister Ukari. Over the years, Savado has become distant from his mother and father. Their relationship became so strained to the point where Savado just never returned home. He wandered through the different districts of Rukongai, falling in with the bad crowds and committing acts he would have never even considered if his sister were still around. This was his own way of coping with the loss that continued to plague his mind and his heart.
"Death"
Death beyond this point meant reincarnation or just a black void, whichever applies in this universe. Savado had joined up with one of the many gangs that infected the Rukongai districts. This was one of the more violent ones that usually carried weapons and committed acts of vandalism and murder. During a routine ambush against a rival gang, the same, snake-like hollow from 16 years prior resurfaced. It attacked both groups, claiming lives from both sides. As the shinigami arrived on the scene, trying to drive the hollow away, it took Savado with it this time into Hueco Mundo where it planned to devour him whole.
Life as a Hollow
Unfortunately for Savado, there was little resistance he could put up against three hollows in Hueco Mundo. A hollow variation of a lion, snake, and goat. He was fresh meat ready for the picking. All at once, the hollows attacked, melding and merging with Savado and converting him into one of their own.
Throughout his years as a hollow, Savado gradually advanced in the races, reaching gillian-class menos in seemingly no time at all. Progressing from menos to adjuchas took a significantly long time since Savado didn't know where most menos resided. When he did find other menos, he instinctively devoured as many as he could. It took him well over a few decades but he eventually evolved into an adjuchas-class menos. Like other adjuchas, Savado was always looking to grow stronger. So he hunted Hueco Mundo, searching for other adjuchas and hollows alike to boost his own power. For well over a century, Savado has been in the hunt. At one point, he believed adjuchas was as far as he could progress.
However, hope soon arrived in the form of a unique-looking hollow. He stood up-right with his arms in the shape of sharp blades. This hollow even had human flesh on parts of his body like his face and parts of his legs that were visible. It was a Vasto Lorde. The pinnacle of hollow evolution. Savado's insatiable lust for power would overwhelm him, causing his instincts to kick in and take over. He attacked the evolved hollow, only to be badly beaten. As he was about to be dealt the killing blow, Savado's final attempt at survival proved to be fruitful. He used his tail which is the snake head, to bite the Vasto in the neck, injecting it with poison. This was his finishing blow which quickly killed the Vasto Lorde. Savado let out a victorious roar and began to feast on the Vasto. Once the hollow was consumed, Savado evolved for what he believed to be the last time.
Throughout the ages, he has found only one other Vasto Lorde which he fought but could not finish off and consume. From then on, Savado has consumed other hollows to help stabilize and boost his power which drove him to a new plateau of power thought to be unattainable: Segunda Etapa.

 - Character Skin Color/Ethnicity: Savado's complexion is more a light bronze-tone than anything.
- Character Height: 71 in. (5'11)
- Character Hair Color: A neatly combed dark brown mane that reaches down to Savado's shoulder.
- Character Hair Length/ Style Savado doesn't style his hair. Any way he wakes up with it is the way he wears his hair. Occasionally, he may comb it, but that's it. It hangs down to his shoulders.
- Character Eye Color: A prominent shade of canary yellow.
- Character Description: Savado has a lean to muscular build weighing in at roughly 180 pounds. He continues to eat and work out when he can which ultimately increases his build after each session. He also has a scar over his right eye which he prefers to keep hidden beneath an eye patch. Some speculate that he's lost his eye but Savado won't admit to anything. The eye patch hinders his depth perception but so far, he doesn't seem to have trouble coping.
- Character Hollow Hole Location: Lower abdomen where his bellybutton would be.
- Character Number/Rank: Cero
- Character Number Location: Back of his neck.
- Character Attire: Savado wears a jacket-like top. Sometime he wears it without an undershirt but not too often. He wears traditional hakama bottoms and sandals with black socks. Other than the jacket top, Savado wears ordinary Espada attire.

- Zanpakutō Name: Depredador (Predator)
- Zanpakutō Sealed Form: In it's sealed form, Depredador looks like this. Near the hilt, there's a small design engraved on the blade which seems to be a dragon of some kind.
- Zanpakutō Resurrección Activation Statement: "Caza, Depredador!" ("Hunt, Predator!")
- Zanpakutō Resurrección Name: Depredador
- Zanpakutō Resurrección Appearance Depredador (Rough rendition)
To properly unleash his resurrección, Savado takes his zanpakuto and holds it up in front of his body with the tip of the blade pressed his other palm. As he utters the release phrase, Savado drives the blade through his hand, causing blood to gush out like a geyser. The blood then begins to swirl around Savado like a condensed tornado, hiding his transforming body from his opponent(s).
When the dust finally settles and the blood dissipates, Savado is revealed to be a chimera-like hollow. The horns on his head grow to about 8 inches, a snake-like tail emerges from his lower-back with the tip being a snake's head capable of acting on it's own. Each individual head has a different voice. The snake's voice is a bit higher in pitch and comes off as sly and sinister. The lion head is deeper and has a dominating tone while the goat's head sounds like a snobby, know-it-all noble.
The lion head manifests on Savado's chest complete with a light brown mane. It's maw is always visible when ever he stands on his hind legs. While on all fours, the goat head is Savado's primary function to see. Sharp, talon-like claws replace Savado's humanoid hands and goat-like hooves substitute his feet.
- Zanpakutō Resurrección Abilities
Acritud Salivar (Acid Spit) - This ability only applies to Savado's snake tail. At any given time during a battle, Savado's snake tail can project a green, corrosive acid capable of eating through most dense materials. He can shoot this acid spit up to 30 feet.
Tosigo Morder (Venomous Bite) - As the name suggests, a bite from the snake head will ultimately lead to death if not treated immediately. Symptoms of the bite include: decaying of the skin, bite mark, nausea, severe diarrhea, headache, dizziness, loss of balance, paranoid delusions, and hallucinations.
León Rugido (Lion's Roar) - From the Lion's head, Savado can release a deafening roar in the form of a sonic wave. If the opponent is within a close proximity, chances are their ears and eyes will bleed. Exposure to the sound long enough may cause a permanent loss of hearing.
- Achieved? Yes
- Segunda Resurrección: Última Depredador
- Segunda Resurrección Appearance: Última Depredador
Much like Savado's first release, Depradador evolves to an even deadlier monstrosity. Savado grows at least twice it's normal size and even sprouts a fourth head. A dragon head emerges alongside the lion's head which has been adjusted on this massive body. Each head, excluding the snake head, is now positioned next to one another. Dragon-like wings also emerge from the sides of the beast which makes it capable of flight at high speeds.
- Segunda Resurrección Abilities
Tres Paras Cero (Three-Prong Zero) - Each of the three heads, lion, goat and dragon, begin to gather energy into their mouths. The color of the energy varies from one animal to the next. The dragon's head produces purple energy, the lion head produces yellow and the goat produces white. The energy then shoots out in a thin beam to the center of their body, mixing their colors together before being unleashed at their opponent(s). This is a highly-powerful attack that is capable of laying waste to an entire countryside. It, however, takes a considerable amount of time to create, leaving Savado virtually vulnerable to attack. (2 posts to make)
Tóxico Lanzallamas (Toxic Flamethrower) - A fairly simple attack. Savado utilizes the dragon head to spew out flames from its mouth. There is, however, one trait that sets this attack from ordinary fire-based attacks. The smoke it produces is toxic to the point it could infect the opponents' lungs if they inhale it. Left un-checked, the toxins could spread to other vital organs which could result in death.
- Segunda Resurrección Time Able to Hold: Unlimited
- Achieved? Yes

Bala
- Color: Red
- Range: Relatively small compared to a cero. It has minimal range so it is rarely used in battle.
- Distance: It's effective up to a quarter mile. Beyond that, it kind of looses it's kick.
- Mastery Novice
Cero
- Color: Green
- Range: The cero can be fired from any of the three heads on Savado's body in his released form. Each is fired in the form of a cone-like beam where the range is already at it's maximum of 5 to 10 feet from the point of release.
- Distance: Half a mile
- Mastery Expert
Cero Oscuras
- Color: Dark green
- Range: This version of Cero Oscuras has a wide range of destruction. Upon the point of being fired, it is shot in a wide, cone-like beam varying from 11 to 30 feet across.
- Distance: 3/4 mile
- Mastery: Expert
- Hierro
Proficient - Savado's heirro, while it is highly dense, it is not nearly as tough as some of the other Espada's.
- Swordsmanship: (Zanjutsu)
Mastery - Savado mastered the art of zanjutsu enough to be pretty reckless when locked in battle. This can range from throwing it to using it as a catapult to lunge at an enemy.
- Sonído:
Master - Savado's instincts are very sharp to the point of animal-level quality. This includes his reflexes. It comes off as annoying that not many manage to land a hit on him when he isn't bound to anything. To level the playing field, one would have to abandon all formal training and rely heavily on their basic instincts if they wish to land a significant blow to this predatory Espada.
- High Speed Regeneration
Mastery - Savado makes up for his lack of tough hierro with this trait. His regeneration ability exceeds all others of his faction. Any severed limb can be reattached if it isn't blown up, melted, etc. However, regrowing a lost extremity is not uncommon for Savado. He has been known to regrow his limbs almost instantly in some cases.

Okay, as far as Resurrección goes your solid, could be a little more descriptive, and such.
But your bio is short, and choppy.
I'd like it more in depth, how he felt, the affect on him from his sister's death, his time struggling with her death, maybe it drove him into madness? Simple ideas.
These are ideas, and some requirements as well, so look into this, and the position is yours.
Welcome Cero Espada.
