Shunpo - proficient in a basic degree of Flash Step 3. Zanjutsu - pathetic at swordplay, preferring to use her fists to fight. She uses her shikai as an extension of Hakuda, rather than Zanjutsu.

Personality: A sunny and somewhat erratic person, she has a hard time staying on task. Her nickname of "WolfHound" comes from one part her canine personality, one part her canine fighting style… and one part her canine table manners. A bit bitter about being expelled from the Gotei 13, leading her to take a rather dim view of the Gotei duties. 100% fine with running away from fights.
Biography Before Death: N/A (born shinigami) Biography After Death: Joining the Eleventh Division after graduating from the academy, Hinata was on patrol in the human world when she and her two patrol mates were attacked by mutated hollows. Surviving with a hollow infection, she returned alone to soul society only to be informed that she was stripped of rank and turned out from the Gotei 13 for supporting a hollow infection. Unable to stand being shunned by her former peers, she left Soul Society for the Human world and hasn't returned since.
Theme Songs: (normal)Never End, (battle)Vital Mission in the Spanish Desert

Erm, sworday, there's a specific forum titled Approval where you must post your profile for it to be reviewed. Once it is accepted by an appropriate moderator, they will move it to the forum of your character's species. I've checked the records in reference to the post date, and this has not occurred and you've made no effort to indicate that this profile has been approved outside of the guild. I've moved your profile to the appropriate subforum until it has been approved.
The following is just unsolicited advice-I can't approve your profile-but I would actually expand on your character's shikai. The physical description is a fraction of a sentence, and you haven't mentioned the capacity of its most basic ability, nor have you stated what happens to the energy after it is dispersed. Does it gather? Can it be absorbed? How fast can this ability drain energy and does it have a limit? Why does it only work on barriers? I speak from experience when I say that power-drain abilities are difficult to pull off. Especially when you also have the ability to absorb it as it is an inherently powerful advantage, with you controlling the flow of power. But if you set limitations, it can work nicely. Many people discredit it as they see it as a hassle, though.
Furthermore, the shikai doesn't seem to even remotely relate to the bankai-the former being an absorption zanpakutō with the latter being a sound zanpakutō. I would really take a moment to decide which zanpakutō you want to have and then work to fine tune it. Especially since the only two techniques you've listed are a bit cliché. And on that note, the second Bankai ability needs serious revision. As I read it, it appears to be an all-powerful technique that utterly devastates everything around, irregardless of the power. I cant think of anyone who would approve that in any situation. Even massively overpowered characters like species leaders have limits and cannot destroy everything around them in one attack.
Umm, while I know this isn't an actual problem, I read this profile expecting to really be able to relate this character to a wolfhound and I actually really didn't see much justification for her nickname.
I feel like this profile is very bare, really. Like you did this after a sleepless night and didn't really care about the results. I would suggest going back and making grammar edits and generally adding fine details and personality to this character. Certain areas such as her bio and personality should be revised so they read more smoothly, and I would overall just strive to add detail to descriptions. Try to get in at least a small handful of sentences for all abilities and appearances, including wardrobe and tools. And probably you would do well to set and follow a theme.
I hope my advice and input, unrequested as it may be, will help you further refine this character. I'd really like to see where you decide to go from here with her. Just edit it into the title or announce it here when you're ready for a review.

thank you for moving this. I wasn't thinking when I posted this, and couldn't do anything about it once I'd noticed.
The answer to where the energy goes is... who knows? The air I suppose. I envisioned it like chipping concrete. The bits just go flying. Her shikai is really very weak, intentionally weak to encourage her preferred usage of hakuda. It's really only useful when fighting magic users who like restraints, or dealing with arrancar hierro. I left it intentionally vague on how powerful it is... well because it isn't. It's really just an extra 2%. It's kinda fail.
It's not a direct follow up to the quote on quote power of the shikai because the shikai is meant to be vague and not actually set any sort of ability standard. The sound thing is just as a medium to transfer force, and to set up a way to neutralize it when others fight it. You are right about roar as one tho. I'll scrap it.
Yeah, that was going to be emphasized more as a nickname derived from her personality and fighting style... and possibly table manners.
I really don't want a powerful character here. I'm shooting for a character who's weak, and makes up for it with personality. Unfortunately, that won't work until I actually start playing. I like the idea of a third rate shinigami becoming a vizard and having to deal with being the bottom rung in the power totem. I plan to make her most reliable and trusted technique: "Run away and live another day". And yes, now that I think about it, I will add these things to the profile.

That's a noble and understandable idea, and I really commend you on it. It's not often that people "downgrade," as it were. I'd still love it if you tried to give this character some more attention. You could really commit to her moniker more and expand on her abilities. You can make a weak character with a few named attacks. She could know every possible technique but with a small amount of spiritual power, she would still be easy to dispatch.
But I can respect your decision to create a lesser character.
Can you clarify her mask's time limit a bit? How many full posts? How does that number go down during combat?
Also! She has a focus in Hakuda so does she know any techniques?

I suppose that three to five minutes of combat would equate to... I suppose only 2-5 posts, depending on how much is happening per post. Strong powers burn quicker.
I completely forgot about hakuda techniques. I suppose maybe in the future... is there a post requirement for learning new techniques?

Not as far as I know. Since it has been approved, you can come talk to me at any time. I think I more or less function as the Hakuda expert for the guild.
