History: The Von Schroeder family was one of the original Quincy Noble families, they had a very close bon with the Uryū clan until a difference in principle made them drift appart, the Uryū wished to live in peace with shinigami but the Von Schroeders did not, this lead to a falling out, the Von Schroeders stayed in their ancestral home in Germany for hundreds of years, a thriving society of quincy with a dark secret, they openly killed shinigami and studied them, he was born to the Von Schroeder clan the oldest of twin boys by 10 minutes and as such he became the heir to the clan, his brother died at 8 months old of a sudden and unknown illness, at the age of 3 Chris began his training, he was schooled by the brightest minds of Germany from a very young age and taught Reiryoku and Reiatsu control by the most brilliant Quincy in his clan, at the tender age of 7 he was considered a genius in quincy techniques and intellect, at this age he began training in advanced quincy techniques such as Ransōtengai and Hirenkyaku ultimately mastering both of these by age 10, this is when he saw the dark secret of his clan, he was called by the elders of his clan to be given a mission, he was to go out and bring back 2 Shinigami, one dead and one very much knocking on death's door, this was his rite of passage, and he passed with flying colors, he was presented with a Sanrei Shutō as a sign of his transition from boy to man, his training became far more intense and more tests of strength followed, the heir had to be strong, stronger than any before him his parents told him, after this he would participate in more shinigami hunts, and as time went on he started becoming more and more comfortable with killing these people, he wanted to hate them and kill them blindly with all his being, but he could not, he felt wrong by not hating those who had caused so much pain to his people, in fact he was starting to feel nothing, he was becoming that which his clan wanted, a mindless and emotionless killer, as time went on he continued to kill and earned the nickname of Grim Reaper for all the lives he had taken on his short life, he was now 15 years of age and was considered the strongest heir to ever be born to the Von Schroeders, he bore his nickname as a badge of honor, but his clan would soon meet it's end, when he became 16 a sudden invasion of Shinigami swept through their camp, killing everyone in sight, he attempted to reach his parents but as he reached the estate a Shinigami was standing over their corpses, his sword bloody in his and as Chris looked at him, his training and upbringing would not allow him to shed a tear at the sight, he knew what had to be done, he materialized his bow and killed as many shinigami as possible while escaping, he fell of the grid for a good 5 years, after reaching the age of 21 all the resources of his clan became available to him and he began travelling, searching for answers as for what happened to his clan, who where the shinigami that killed everyone, he kept looking for clues until eventually reaching Japan and the Spiritualy Active Karakura Town, he has been here for 3 years now, hiding his prescence and watching from the shadows, he searches for other quincy and he has finally found some, he plans to approach them and possibly join their ranks.
After successfully joining Hinanji's forces he fought alongside them in the invasion of Karakura Town where fighting with Kata Hirase he lost his right eye.After loosing an eye to Kata Hirase Chris' future as a fighter was uncertain. He was quickly healed as soon as the immediate danger passed and then focused all his time on training, his recovery as a fighter was arduous and tedious since his depth perception was now off and he had a blind spot, however with his own technique he has managed to make himself a lot less vulnerable. By sending out a small and constant spherical pulse of reiatsu he is able to make a "map" of his surroundings as the spirit particles clash into one another giving him a sense of where solid objects are and where they are headed; After having extensively honed his senses to respond to this new style he has managed to get a range of 10 feet with the technique. Such precise control of reishi and reiatsu was achieved mostly due to his own resolve and Quincy Pride.
This however is a solution for his close range fighting which was his forte, his long range firing ability was compensated by the heightened control of his reiatsu sensing abilities, to better judge distance and other factors he now senses the reiatsu signature of his target to fire his arrows. After a long awaited time period he is ready to go back to the battlefield.
─Combat Information─
Bow Name: Höllisch Vergeltung (Hellish Vengeance)
Bow Appearance: It is a long thick bow made of bone decorated with silver along the body of the bow, the center part of the bow has a shield like structure made of silver and gold which Chris uses to block attacks at close range, the bow itself is light enough to be handled effectively by Chris but it's sturdy enough to sustain a direct blow from a Zanpakuto.
Attacks:
Meister Bogenschießen (Master Archery)[Passive Ability]: By extensive training Chris was able to hone his control with a bow to the extent of one handed firing, while the arrows hold just enough power to pierce stone about halfway through he can fire in rapid succession which allows him to fight at effectively at close and long range at the same time by freeing up one of his hands.
Dämon's Bestrafung (Demon's Punishment): Chris charges up energy in his bow and uses a Hyrenkyaku of high speed to get above his opponent, he then lets loose the arrow, it travels at high speed towards the target packing quite a punch, this technique is aimed at the head and a direct hit would prove to be fatal just because of the spot its aimed at, the arrow packs enough power to penetrate low level hierro and punch decent sized holes in the floor.
Übel Sturm (Unholy Tempest): Chris focuses his reiatsu into his bow and fires of a volley of arrows at the sky which then fall onto his adversaries, these arrows are slightly weaker than his Dämon's Bestrafung but they more than make up for their lack of strength with the sheer amount, the maximum firing load at once is 2500.
Gott Mörder (God Slayer): This is Chris' strongest attack, while molding reishi from the atmosphere he makes a single arrow of astonishing power, he uses Hyrenkyaku a number of times leaving several after-images behind to mask his movement, when he sees his opening he unleashes the arrow, this arrow holds enough power to pierce through an espada's hierro and bust through some high level defenses.
Abilities:
Blut: By making Reishi flow directly into their blood vessels, users of this technique can drastically increase their attack and defense power. However, despite the significant danger this potentially presents to one's opponents, Blut possesses one major flaw: because the independent forms of the technique for attack and defense operate using two different Reishi systems, they cannot be employed simultaneously. The acquisition of Blut depends on the blood of the Quincy. Pure-blooded Quincy are able to obtain it naturally, while mixed-blooded Quincy need to learn it through training. Chris being of one of the original Quincy Clans possessing a pure-blood status had little difficulty in learning and training to hone this technique.
Blut Vene: The defensive form of Blut, which grants the user inhuman durability, is represented by a faint pattern tracing the veins beneath the surface of their skin, which is only visible on the afflicted area when struck. If consciously kept at full power, even attacks delivered by a Shinigami's Bankai can potentially be negated completely. However, despite the considerable defense afforded by this technique, it seemingly is not absolute, and can be torn using sufficient power. This power can also be used to aid the user against critical wounds that have already been inflicted, able to stop the severe loss of blood that would be caused from said wound. In order to compensate for the loss of his eye and the new found vulnerability of said state Chris spent more time on this aspect of Blut, the defense granted from his use of the technique is that of a low ranking espada.
Blut Arterie: The offensive form of Blut which grants the user inhuman attack power. This technique is the only thing capable of ensuring a Quincy's attacks are able to significantly damage a Bankai-wielding Shinigami. While Chris did focus more on Blut Vene for its defensive powers and his current state he did not forsake this critical component, while using this technique Chris' power gains a 20% boost which coupled with his "Switch Style" of Arrows and Seele Schnider makes him a formidable opponent.
Quincy: Vollständig: Gott der Zerstörung (God of Destruction): While most quincy trained this technique to a level of near perfection during their 7 year period Chris could not do so, instead he has only achieved it for 20 posts. Chris' Quincy: Vollständig takes the form of a Metal Cestus which runs up the length of both his arms and envelops his shoulders and chest area (Much Like Kensei's Bankai). It grants Chris a significant boost in physical strength.
Complete Reishi Dominance: This gives Chris the capability of absorbing a large amount of Reishi at the tip of his spirit weapon to use in a powerful attack. In this form, a Quincy's absorption of Reishi exponentially increases. He can absorb the trees, sand, rocks, and even the buildings in Hueco Mundo or Soul Society.
Sklaverei: Uses the most basic ability to gather Reishi in the most powerful way; by enslaving it. It can literally tear away the components which make up spiritual based objects, such as those which make up Hueco Mundo and Soul Society, as well as the bodies of spiritual beings, such as Ayon. When the body of a spiritual being is affected by this power, a Quincy can assume the characteristics and associated capabilities of his victim. Hinanji has forbidden any of his followers from using this ability on a sentient being of any form, even a foe. As such, this ability is limited in that aspect.
Spirit Weapon: Mugen: Chris can produce a Spirit Weapon, made entirely of Reishi, from the bracelet on his left wrist. Chris' weapon takes the form of 7 shining swords which hover over his back, as he pulls out a blade a new forms in it's place giving Chris an unlimited number of weapons during his release, the reason for this is that instead of firing his Heilig Pfeil from his weapon, they are his Heilig Pfeil. Chris can use the greatly increased physical strength of his Quincy Vollstandig to throw them like spears, they are fired just like they would be normally from a spiritual weapon or bow and it allows Chris to fight more efficiently since his style of "Switching" now only consists of throwing and reaching for another weapon. While in use like a sword they are something like a Seele Schnider though at the length of a Katana, since Chris' power is increased these weapons may cut through other weapons or attacks of those who are significantly weaker than himself. While on his back, the weapons have no physical or tangible aspect, they are just there as a manifestation of reishi particles. WEAPON MANIFESTATION
Enhanced Spiritual Awareness: A Quincy is capable of sensing Reiatsu to a far greater level, allowing them to surpass any ability which would hide one's presence if he/she is more powerful than the opponent in question.
"Reiatsu Sight": He was taught how to see without his eyes by sending out a small amount of reiatsu, after loosing his eye he adapted this technique to send out a small and constant spherical pulse of reiatsu. Now he is able to make a "map" of his surroundings as the spirit particles clash into one another giving him a sense of where solid objects are and where they are headed; After having extensively honed his senses to respond to this new style he has managed to get a range of 10 feet with the technique.
Master Archer: Being born to one of the original Quincy Clans Chris possess all the skill of the previous generation.His skills in archery are measured by his ability to fire with one hand and to only hit that which he desires. He is also highly precise enough to hit a marked leaf falling from a tree in a gust from a mile away.
Reishi Absorption: Chris as a Quincy primarily absorbs spiritual energy from the atmosphere, and combines it with his own spiritual energy to form weapons. He has an easier time collecting this energy in environments with higher concentrations of spiritual particles, such as Soul Society or Hueco Mundo. To a sufficiently powerful Quincy, there is no difference between spiritual particles and spiritual energy as a source of power. He can manipulate spiritual energy for offensive purposes.
This includes the spiritual bodies of Hollows and Shinigami, and the two planes of existence, Hueco Mundo and the Soul Society in their entirety. Reishi is invisible to mortals (such as Humans with the exception of spiritually aware ones such as the Quincy); they can, however, still interact with normal matter and produce physical effects. It is noted, however, that reishi and atoms do not mix well. There is a certain amount of reishi in the Human World, too. Free reishi tends to be found in places closer to nature. Quincy collect this reishi to use for combat in the form of Spirit Weapon. Reishi in the atmosphere is also able to be controlled freely, allowing a person to gather it under their feet so that they can stand in air.
Licht Regen: A technique used in conjunction with a spirit bow, a large amount of reiatsu is stored visible on the person's shoulder, before a large amount of arrows are shot. This technique fires a massive amount of powerful arrows, and is amongst the strongest of quincy techniques.
Ransōtengai (乱装天傀; lit. "heavenly wild puppet suit", "disheveled paradise puppet" in the Viz translation): This is a high level technique that allows the user to control their body parts using strings of spirit energy controlled by their brain, forming lines or strings out of countless reishi. By using this technique, the user can control their body as one would a puppet, allowing them to move freely despite paralysis, broken limbs, or any other force that would impede normal movement. It was originally created to allow elderly Quincy to fight effectively, and is rare enough that Mayuri had never encountered a Quincy (out of the 2661 that he examined or studied) who could use it before Uryū. Mayuri stated it as "the most powerful technique for the Quincy," but he did not know of the Quincy: Letzt Stil, which means as far as Mayuri knew it was the strongest.
Heizen: Heizen instantly gouges and purges whatever is enclosed in the space within the four tossed gintōs. It is tremendously effective even against Menos Grandes.This technique creates a transparent, rectangular beam of energy from the silver tubes which then slices through the opponent. It is activated by the command: "Feel the wrath of battle and accept this sacred chalice - Heizen!"
Gritz: A film of Reishi emitted from a thrown Ginto surrounds the enemy.This technique forms a man-sized pentagonal Quincy cross which envelops its target. It is activated by the command: "A silver rod strikes the five-fingered stone bed - Gritz!"
Wolke: This technique uses a silver tube to create a large blast. It is activated by the command: "Tilt the goblet to the west - Wolke!"
Sprenger: This technique uses five Seele Schneiders to create a pentagon-shaped seal which, when activated, causes a massive explosion within its borders. When an object or a person stands within the middle of the Pentagon the placement of the fifth Seele Schneider can trap them by wrapping and binding their legs to the ground with dense spirit particles. The Seele Schneiders function as accumulators, gathering the necessary amount of spirit particles to create the explosion. The liquid inside a silver tube acts as the trigger. The preparations for the technique combined with the charging time for the Seele Schneiders make its use in battle impractical unless the user has a partner that can stall to buy time, or has enough strength to create the formation while under attack.
Platform Manifestation: An instance of Hirenkyaku that allows the user to create a platform of reishi under their feet. It can be used in the Garganta, and Hueco Mundo.
Hirenkyaku: To perform the technique, the user gathers spiritual particles under their feet and rides them to the desired location. Like the air-walking skill displayed by most Arrancar and Shinigami, it can also be used to hover or fly for long distances. Hirenkyaku enables Quincies to keep up with, and overpower faster opponents depending on the user's skill. However, there is apparently more use for the technique than simply moving quickly.
Equipment:
Seele Schneider: are sword-like weapons used by the Quincy.Chris carries eight with him at all times and has several thousand in a secure storage facility left by his clan.
Ginto: Chris carries 10 of these with him at all times, and has several thousand in a secure storage facility left by his clan.
─Physical Information─
Hirenyaku Level: Master
He was taught at a very young age and was emphasized to master this, it was told to him that to a quincy speed was everything, his speed is great enough to outmaneuver Captain level Shinigami and leave behind several after images in his wake, he has also been seen making very large jumps with Hyrenkyaku.
Hakuda Level: Average
Though he was trained by some of the best martial artists Germany had to offer in arts such as sambo he still has a clear disadvantage like most quincy, he is above average in skill but his lack of natural strength makes it difficult to fully utilize his knowledge against stronger opponents, in a fight against a normal human he would probably come out on top, but Soul Reapers and Hollows are another thing entirely...
Zanjutsu Level: Master
This was the focus of his training, his clan wanted him to learn the way of the sword as best he could and as such they often caught shinigami to help with his training, he was schooled in kendo and fencing from a very young age and he learned how to wield Seele Schneider proficiently enough to use 2 at a time, or to use both his bow and Seele Schneider at the same time making him able to fight at close quarters and long range with ease, however, even though he is a master swordsman we come to his lack of strength again, he can hold his own against a Captain level Shinigami, but if push comes to shove he would be overpowered by them, his only edge is his high speed and precise striking ability.
Archery Level: 8
Reishi Absorption Level: 10
Reishi Manipulation Level: 10
Reishi/Reiryoku Breakdown Level: 4

─Skills Information─
Intelligence: Genius his intellect is in a class of it's own, he was schooled by some of the greatest minds of Germany ever since he could talk, by the age of 15 his I.Q. was estimated at 326 which was astonishingly high even by his clan's standards, over the years it has grown more, but the place of magic is the part of his brain which processes memory, he has a photographic memory which allows him to record everything he sees or reads instantly, this rare ability proves useful when memorizing battle strategy and attack patterns.
Athletic Skill: Well Above Average his athletic skills have been honed by his clan for years, his extensive training in martial arts have made him quite keen as to the movement of the body and different fighting styles.
Strength:A Bit Above Average, though his body has been through a lot of training he is after all a human and as such his strength is not that great, he might be able to break a few bones here and there if he really focuses his strength but thats about as much as he'll get from his human body.
Speed: Extremely High, his clan believed in speed over everything, they believed that a slow quincy was a dead quincy and as such they honed Chris' skill in Hyrenkyaku to astonishing levels and trained his body to react to changes in the battlefield in seconds, this made him effective in the use of a blade as well, his speed is great enough to outmaneuver a Captain with little effort.
Agility: Look to speed
Stamina:Look to speed
Durability: Slightly Above Average , though he is highly trained Chris is human so his body can only take so much, he can ignore the pain from some wounds and continue to fight by using Ransōtengai but this can only last for so long.
Endurance:A Bit Above Average, Chris' physical endurance is a bit over what the normal person would endure because of his training, but, we once again come to the fact that he is human and has a limit as to how much he can actually sustain, his mental endurance on the other hand is extremely high thanks to his keen intellect and the training done by his clan to eliminate emotion, he can push himself a bit more by will alone but that only goes so far when you have a body that could quit on you at any given time.
Flexibility:Well Above Average, look to athletic skill.
Any Special Skills:
His skill in molding and controlling reishi is so great that he can control his reiatsu to astonishing levels, he can work rishi into his attacks like nobody's business and can use reishi from the atmosphere to fuel his attacks as well by mixing it in with his own
Being so intelligent he has some knowledge on human anatomy which allows him to strike very precisely at his opponents making his strikes all the deadlier.

Chris being of one of the original Quincy Clans possessing a pure-blood status had little difficulty in learning and training to hone this technique.
Blut Vene: The defensive form of Blut, which grants the user inhuman durability, is represented by a faint pattern tracing the veins beneath the surface of their skin, which is only visible on the afflicted area when struck. If consciously kept at full power, even attacks delivered by a Shinigami's Bankai can potentially be negated completely. However, despite the considerable defense afforded by this technique, it seemingly is not absolute, and can be torn using sufficient power. This power can also be used to aid the user against critical wounds that have already been inflicted, able to stop the severe loss of blood that would be caused from said wound. In order to compensate for the loss of his eye and the new found vulnerability of said state Chris spent more time on this aspect of Blut, the defense granted from his use of the technique is that of a low ranking espada.
Blut Arterie: The offensive form of Blut which grants the user inhuman attack power. This technique is the only thing capable of ensuring a Quincy's attacks are able to significantly damage a Bankai-wielding Shinigami. While Chris did focus more on Blut Vene for its defensive powers and his current state he did not forsake this critical component, while using this technique Chris' power gains a 20% boost which coupled with his "Switch Style" of Arrows and Seele Schnider makes him a formidable opponent.
Quincy: Vollständig: Gott der Zerstörung (God of Destruction): While most quincy trained this technique to a level of near perfection during their 7 year period Chris could not do so, instead he has only achieved it for 20 posts. Chris' Quincy: Vollständig takes the form of a Metal Cestus which runs up the length of both his arms and envelops his shoulders and chest area (Much Like Kensei's Bankai). It grants Chris a significant boost in physical strength.
Complete Reishi Dominance: This gives Chris the capability of absorbing a large amount of Reishi at the tip of his spirit weapon to use in a powerful attack. In this form, a Quincy's absorption of Reishi exponentially increases. He can absorb the trees, sand, rocks, and even the buildings in Hueco Mundo or Soul Society.
Sklaverei: Uses the most basic ability to gather Reishi in the most powerful way; by enslaving it. It can literally tear away the components which make up spiritual based objects, such as those which make up Hueco Mundo and Soul Society, as well as the bodies of spiritual beings, such as Ayon. When the body of a spiritual being is affected by this power, a Quincy can assume the characteristics and associated capabilities of his victim. Hinanji has forbidden any of his followers from using this ability on a sentient being of any form, even a foe. As such, this ability is limited in that aspect.
Spirit Weapon: Mugen: Chris can produce a Spirit Weapon, made entirely of Reishi, from the bracelet on his left wrist. Chris' weapon takes the form of 7 shining swords which hover over his back, as he pulls out a blade a new forms in it's place giving Chris an unlimited number of weapons during his release, the reason for this is that instead of firing his Heilig Pfeil from his weapon, they are his Heilig Pfeil. Chris can use the greatly increased physical strength of his Quincy Vollstandig to throw them like spears, they are fired just like they would be normally from a spiritual weapon or bow and it allows Chris to fight more efficiently since his style of "Switching" now only consists of throwing and reaching for another weapon. While in use like a sword they are something like a Seele Schnider though at the length of a Katana, since Chris' power is increased these weapons may cut through other weapons or attacks of those who are significantly weaker than himself. While on his back, the weapons have no physical or tangible aspect, they are just there as a manifestation of reishi particles. WEAPON MANIFESTATION
Enhanced Spiritual Awareness: A Quincy is capable of sensing Reiatsu to a far greater level, allowing them to surpass any ability which would hide one's presence if he/she is more powerful than the opponent in question.
"Reiatsu Sight": He was taught how to see without his eyes by sending out a small amount of reiatsu, after loosing his eye he adapted this technique to send out a small and constant spherical pulse of reiatsu. Now he is able to make a "map" of his surroundings as the spirit particles clash into one another giving him a sense of where solid objects are and where they are headed; After having extensively honed his senses to respond to this new style he has managed to get a range of 10 feet with the technique.
Master Archer: Being born to one of the original Quincy Clans Chris possess all the skill of the previous generation.His skills in archery are measured by his ability to fire with one hand and to only hit that which he desires. He is also highly precise enough to hit a marked leaf falling from a tree in a gust from a mile away.
Reishi Absorption: Chris as a Quincy primarily absorbs spiritual energy from the atmosphere, and combines it with his own spiritual energy to form weapons. He has an easier time collecting this energy in environments with higher concentrations of spiritual particles, such as Soul Society or Hueco Mundo. To a sufficiently powerful Quincy, there is no difference between spiritual particles and spiritual energy as a source of power. He can manipulate spiritual energy for offensive purposes.
This includes the spiritual bodies of Hollows and Shinigami, and the two planes of existence, Hueco Mundo and the Soul Society in their entirety. Reishi is invisible to mortals (such as Humans with the exception of spiritually aware ones such as the Quincy); they can, however, still interact with normal matter and produce physical effects. It is noted, however, that reishi and atoms do not mix well. There is a certain amount of reishi in the Human World, too. Free reishi tends to be found in places closer to nature. Quincy collect this reishi to use for combat in the form of Spirit Weapon. Reishi in the atmosphere is also able to be controlled freely, allowing a person to gather it under their feet so that they can stand in air.
Licht Regen: A technique used in conjunction with a spirit bow, a large amount of reiatsu is stored visible on the person's shoulder, before a large amount of arrows are shot. This technique fires a massive amount of powerful arrows, and is amongst the strongest of quincy techniques.
Ransōtengai (乱装天傀; lit. "heavenly wild puppet suit", "disheveled paradise puppet" in the Viz translation): This is a high level technique that allows the user to control their body parts using strings of spirit energy controlled by their brain, forming lines or strings out of countless reishi. By using this technique, the user can control their body as one would a puppet, allowing them to move freely despite paralysis, broken limbs, or any other force that would impede normal movement. It was originally created to allow elderly Quincy to fight effectively, and is rare enough that Mayuri had never encountered a Quincy (out of the 2661 that he examined or studied) who could use it before Uryū. Mayuri stated it as "the most powerful technique for the Quincy," but he did not know of the Quincy: Letzt Stil, which means as far as Mayuri knew it was the strongest.
Heizen: Heizen instantly gouges and purges whatever is enclosed in the space within the four tossed gintōs. It is tremendously effective even against Menos Grandes.This technique creates a transparent, rectangular beam of energy from the silver tubes which then slices through the opponent. It is activated by the command: "Feel the wrath of battle and accept this sacred chalice - Heizen!"
Gritz: A film of Reishi emitted from a thrown Ginto surrounds the enemy.This technique forms a man-sized pentagonal Quincy cross which envelops its target. It is activated by the command: "A silver rod strikes the five-fingered stone bed - Gritz!"
Wolke: This technique uses a silver tube to create a large blast. It is activated by the command: "Tilt the goblet to the west - Wolke!"
Sprenger: This technique uses five Seele Schneiders to create a pentagon-shaped seal which, when activated, causes a massive explosion within its borders. When an object or a person stands within the middle of the Pentagon the placement of the fifth Seele Schneider can trap them by wrapping and binding their legs to the ground with dense spirit particles. The Seele Schneiders function as accumulators, gathering the necessary amount of spirit particles to create the explosion. The liquid inside a silver tube acts as the trigger. The preparations for the technique combined with the charging time for the Seele Schneiders make its use in battle impractical unless the user has a partner that can stall to buy time, or has enough strength to create the formation while under attack.
Platform Manifestation: An instance of Hirenkyaku that allows the user to create a platform of reishi under their feet. It can be used in the Garganta, and Hueco Mundo.
Hirenkyaku: To perform the technique, the user gathers spiritual particles under their feet and rides them to the desired location. Like the air-walking skill displayed by most Arrancar and Shinigami, it can also be used to hover or fly for long distances. Hirenkyaku enables Quincies to keep up with, and overpower faster opponents depending on the user's skill. However, there is apparently more use for the technique than simply moving quickly.
Equipment:
Seele Schneider: are sword-like weapons used by the Quincy.Chris carries eight with him at all times and has several thousand in a secure storage facility left by his clan.
Ginto: Chris carries 10 of these with him at all times, and has several thousand in a secure storage facility left by his clan.
─Physical Information─
Hirenyaku Level: Master
He was taught at a very young age and was emphasized to master this, it was told to him that to a quincy speed was everything, his speed is great enough to outmaneuver Captain level Shinigami and leave behind several after images in his wake, he has also been seen making very large jumps with Hyrenkyaku.
Hakuda Level: Average
Though he was trained by some of the best martial artists Germany had to offer in arts such as sambo he still has a clear disadvantage like most quincy, he is above average in skill but his lack of natural strength makes it difficult to fully utilize his knowledge against stronger opponents, in a fight against a normal human he would probably come out on top, but Soul Reapers and Hollows are another thing entirely...
Zanjutsu Level: Master
This was the focus of his training, his clan wanted him to learn the way of the sword as best he could and as such they often caught shinigami to help with his training, he was schooled in kendo and fencing from a very young age and he learned how to wield Seele Schneider proficiently enough to use 2 at a time, or to use both his bow and Seele Schneider at the same time making him able to fight at close quarters and long range with ease, however, even though he is a master swordsman we come to his lack of strength again, he can hold his own against a Captain level Shinigami, but if push comes to shove he would be overpowered by them, his only edge is his high speed and precise striking ability.
Archery Level: 8
Reishi Absorption Level: 10

─Skills Information─
Intelligence: Genius his intellect is in a class of it's own, he was schooled by some of the greatest minds of Germany ever since he could talk, by the age of 15 his I.Q. was estimated at 326 which was astonishingly high even by his clan's standards, over the years it has grown more, but the place of magic is the part of his brain which processes memory, he has a photographic memory which allows him to record everything he sees or reads instantly, this rare ability proves useful when memorizing battle strategy and attack patterns.
Athletic Skill: Well Above Average his athletic skills have been honed by his clan for years, his extensive training in martial arts have made him quite keen as to the movement of the body and different fighting styles.
Strength:A Bit Above Average, though his body has been through a lot of training he is after all a human and as such his strength is not that great, he might be able to break a few bones here and there if he really focuses his strength but thats about as much as he'll get from his human body.
Speed: Extremely High, his clan believed in speed over everything, they believed that a slow quincy was a dead quincy and as such they honed Chris' skill in Hyrenkyaku to astonishing levels and trained his body to react to changes in the battlefield in seconds, this made him effective in the use of a blade as well, his speed is great enough to outmaneuver a Captain with little effort.
Agility: Look to speed
Stamina:Look to speed
Durability: Slightly Above Average , though he is highly trained Chris is human so his body can only take so much, he can ignore the pain from some wounds and continue to fight by using Ransōtengai but this can only last for so long.
Endurance:A Bit Above Average, Chris' physical endurance is a bit over what the normal person would endure because of his training, but, we once again come to the fact that he is human and has a limit as to how much he can actually sustain, his mental endurance on the other hand is extremely high thanks to his keen intellect and the training done by his clan to eliminate emotion, he can push himself a bit more by will alone but that only goes so far when you have a body that could quit on you at any given time.
Flexibility:Well Above Average, look to athletic skill.
Any Special Skills:
His skill in molding and controlling reishi is so great that he can control his reiatsu to astonishing levels, he can work rishi into his attacks like nobody's business and can use reishi from the atmosphere to fuel his attacks as well by mixing it in with his own
Being so intelligent he has some knowledge on human anatomy which allows him to strike very precisely at his opponents making his strikes all the deadlier.
