Nickname(s)/Alias(es):Narcolepsy, Sleeper, Naps
Race: Shinigami
Rank:
Physical Description:
One may recognize Alicel as that girl who is constantly looking like she has never had a wink of sleep and just woke up. Her dark hair is shoulder length and always uncombed, although soft to the touch. Her equally dark eyes are quite close to black, enough so that she looks like she has any irises, just pupils. She is chubby and has a round face, no part of her body is angled or sharp and she always looks somewhat young or gentle because of it. She is not very tall, a little below average in fact.
Alicel looks to be in her teens, barely old enough to be living the life alone. Her uniform is constantly unkept, untucked, or something similar, messy and messy. There are a few holes and scrapes that never got patched up, and she looks like she just stopped caring about her appearance. One can even call it sloppy, although anyone that knows her can attest she isn't sloppy on purpose, but rather an after-effect of her sleeping disorder.
Her body is far from perfect. The skin is soft and relatively pale, but is darker on her arms and face. The rest of her body is fairly milky, because she doesn't remove her clothes in public or in any form of light at all. There are a few scars on her arms from an isolated life of self-hatred. He limbs are fairly short; this makes it hard for her to get on top of places. As well, she has small hands and feet.
Personality:
Alicel has a very laid back personality, which does not help her narcolepsy at all. She is known to fall asleep practically anywhere. There is no real treatment, so she is pretty much excused from any absences on account of the fact she cannot help sleeping. She is slightly more awake during the evenings than the day, apparently a night person more than a day person (although she is pretty much asleep at all hours). It is uncommon for her to be awake any more than ten hours, usually she is only awake for eight or nine hours total within a 24 hour period.
Other than her constant sleepiness, Alicel has a tendency to not be totally in reality at any time. Whether this is due to narcolepsy or some other reason, she simply is not all there. There is always a part of her that seems to be floating off, or rather, it always seems most of her is off still in whatever dreamland she was sleeping in beforehand. This makes her inattentive to smaller details such as names and dates and messes up her sense of time. Thankfully she is still able to remember concepts (usually).
Alicel is a very distant person, although she has a tendency to enjoy the physical company of people and talking with people she keeps people at arms distance emotionally. This doesn't help by the fact she has a firm belief that her dreams are another reality in of themselves, so in her waking world she feels no need to socialize; she socializes plenty in the dream figures.
She is strangely artistic. When she is not sleeping or busy in her duties, one can usually find the young shinigami painting her dreamscapes. They are all abstract and fly in the face of reality, and yet they all seem real to her because she has lived in every one of them. Her dreams are the most precious thing she owns, and will not let allow anyone to take them away from her.
As a rule, Alicel is peaceful and relaxed and tolerant of all things. However, one would be surprised the intensity of her emotions at times. At the worst, Alicel has been known to become so angry she loses control of her spiritual pressure and it becomes thick enough to choke people. (Usually it is very light, like air, when she is angry it tends to thicken around her) However, the anger usually tires her and although her rage is something for people to fear, she is almost always asleep right after, running off into her world of dreams.
Zanpakutou: Kyoui no Sekai (World of Wonder)
Zanpakutou Spirit: Kyoui no Sekai is more of an amalgamation of ideas with no body or real coherency. Called Kyou for short, it is could at best be described a hundred thousand dreams at once. For that reason, Alicel never regards her spirit for long; it is something that would drive someone insane if they looked at it for more than a few moments. It speaks to her not though words but through the trigger of multiple senses, usually in odd and illogical manners that only it can do. Thankfully Alicel can understand most of it, whether or not she takes this advice is a different matter.
Inner World: N/A
Sealed Form: Her sword is never in its sheathe, she pretty much is always too lazy to sheathe it properly and usually just has it hanging off her belt. It is not particularly sharp and has frayed edges; she obviously has little care for it at all. It is little more than something as a placeholder to her actual skills.
(Not obtained yet) Shikai Name/Release Phrase:
Dream...
Shikai Description:
You're not in your world anymore. When Alicel activates her shikai, it is something that is not to be taken lightly. Around her the world we know fased away into a thick fog and when it clears again, it is a completely alien land with impossible geometry and odd colored everything. It is not particularly dangerous or frightening, just whimiscal and unrealistic in any way. This landscape actually changes according to her dreams, so it is different every time she releases her shikai. She has no control over it but she has one advantage over her enemy in this- this is her land now. This is her home turf and you are at a disadvantage. In her dreams she gains the appearance of whatever fits the dream, but her sword always changes to that of something that may not even look realistic. It is practically a ribbon-like blade, silvery like water but undeniably sharp. Do not mistake her innocent appearance, this is her world.
Shikai Powers:
Alicel's shikai temporarily converts an area around her into that of whatever whimsical dreamscape she had beforehand. This area on the outside looks more like a huge, swirling crystal ball where one can see nothing within. It feels like glass; one has the feeling she is purposefully keeping the outside world out. Of course, those with sufficient strength could always break her barrier, which ruins her shikai entirely. Once it is ruined, everything returns to the way it was.
Her shikai form is different for each dream and so there are usually different environmental aspects. If it is a volcano, prepare to fear lava. It is a wasteland, then it si a straight fight. However, some things will make no sense, such as if one is underwater there is no fear of drowning. She will change appearance to fit her shikai environment, underwater she will gain fins, on lava she gains a hard carapace, etc. This advantage does not extend to her victims.
Her shikai is all-encompassing and terrifying. However, she cannot use kido or any other spiritual attacks at all. Her dispersed and unfocused spiritual power simply cannot focus enough for even the weakest spells.
(Not obtained yet) Bankai Name:
Let none reawaken, Bankai!
Bankai Description: (Your Bankai is basically the peak of your zanpakutou, and shinigami's increase in power through their zanpakutou. This is the final stage of your zanpakutou. Just like in shikai, you're zanpakutou will likely change shape again, so describe everything about this new equipment. When your Shinigami releases the Zanpakutou, what happens? Does the Zanpakutou just suddenly change, or is there a flashy burst of power? Be specific. This is your coup de grace, the strongest you can get, but keep in mind that other people have to fight against it. No one likes to go against unbeatable odds; think of what it would be like to face your bankai rather than just what makes it the most powerful! Remember, your Bankai still has to be relative to your Shikai attribute wise. Having a Shikai that is elemental with Lightning and then suddenly having a Gravity Bankai is inconsistent and lame, and will most certainly be rejected!)
Bankai Powers: (Describe any powers your Bankai has and list any attacks you frequently use as well. Names are not required, and remember that setting specific attacks can limit your flexibility in using your powers. An appropriate mix between attacks, passive abilities and gauged attribute and power boosts based on your character's initial characteristics would be wise. All the techniques that your zanpakutou will allow you that weren't from shikai, will be revealed here.)
Special Accessories: (Does your character wear any special jewelry or carry an unusual, unique item with them? Mention anything your character has a particular attachment to and why here. Accessories often set a part characters just as much as their personality, so be specific! Just about everyone in the world has an accessory or two, so why should your character be any different?)
Skills/Abilities: (What can your shinigami do outside of the usual sword swinging and release phrasing? If your character has been trained in a martial art, list it here. If they have a particular acuity toward something, list it here. If they are skilled at something that directly or indirectly involves combat, or not at all, list it here. This also reflects your character heavily, and will often help inspire you to do creative, non-plot, private role plays [PRP] that will help you boost your relationships with others and maybe gain some new friends!)

Biography/History: (Now listen, everyone has a backstory. Something to say; even if it sounds boring to you, someone else would be glad to hear it. NO ONE, can have an unknown past, this is not a direct interview with your character, so even if he/she has forgotten, you haven't. Start from a their younger days, what kind of relationships they had, where they lived, when and how they lived. Everything that made this character up until the day he/she died should be present here. Then... after they died. Not all soul burials are prompt, your character probably had some time to float around aimlessly for a few hours before they were sent to Soul Society, so make an account of this, as it will count towards your character as a shinigami. Now believe me, few people are actually born into Soul Society, and those are typically members of the Royal Families. But your character's experience in the Rukongai is crucial to his reasoning and purpose as a Shinigami. People who had a rough time may want to make it better for others, people who fought and loved to fight, may want to meet stonger opponents. Someone they loved may have become a Shinigami, perhaps they wish to continue to protect them? Or keep themselves from falling behind in rivalry. All of this makes up who your character is, so a short simplistic biography, will make a short simplistic character. Lastly in your biography should be your character's experience through the Shinigami academy and being accepted into a on of the 13 Squad after graduation. You're time at the academy is a heavy influence on how your character handles authority figures and his peers, along with their skills. Not everyone can master everything, and those strengths and weaknesses began to surface during the academy. Strong physically, but weak spiritually; good swordsmanship but poor kidou; strong but slow, fast but physically feeble. Or maybe good at everything spirit, but helpless in physical combat. Maybe you're a healer? Who knows, but this all is recognized during the four year attendence at the Shinigami Academy.)
Powers: (Throughout your entire profile, you should have been making a list of your characters powers. Please list, for example, if your Shinigami character has Shikai or Bankai and any of the powers they can use for either, what Kidou they can use and any abilities they can use as well.)
