Welcome to Gaia! ::

Link to Profile: Shiori Makado

How long have you been in the guild? Since Like November of last year.

How active are you in the guild? I can be very active. The only reason i hadn't been was because during the last arc i got caught up in the middle of some bad RL stuff, but i always check in to see what's going on and always try to see if anybodies doing anything i can participate in.

Why do you want to hold the rank of Captain? Because if i can hold this position it will give me something to do to help me be more active.

Why do you think you will do well as a Captain? Well, The character in question is a character i've had for quite some time. He was apart of a Bleach rp that was really strict on players and how they rose through the ranks. There was no test or anything that promoted you to captain. It revolved around a level based system and you had to achieve a certain level to obtain shikai, seats, bankai, captaincy and the like. Up until the mod started getting on my nerves i was a few steps away from becoming captain. So i know the value of having to work hard and i can do what the guild needs me to do with my position.

Your Sample: The Seireitei is attacked by arrancar, your squad is tasked with taking care of it so you must lead them.
Sirens had begun to scream all over the Seiretei alerting the captains who knew what the sirens meant to trouble only they were fit to handle, but atop Sokyoku Hill another force had gathered waiting to ambush the captains once they engaged the immediate threat. There were five of these ambushers laying in wait at the edge of the hilltop, all arrancars if the holes in their bodies were any indication. But not all of them were as willing to wait patiently as they had been told to, an arrancar with a mask of iron holding the leash of a three headed hollow was mumbling to himself in ever growing anger. They had been ordered to suppress their reiatsu right until the moment they struck, but their prey could not come fast enough for this particular arrancar who in his impatience released his own substantial power, the other arrancars glaring at him as they knew he had just revealed them to the entire Seiretei, their plan to ambush the coming captains now ruined. One by one the others released the seals on their reiatsu in preparation for whatever enemy might come.

"You should all be glad my fellow warriors, for now we can fight as our blood demands us to!"

One of these so called warriors, a woman dressed in little more than rags, raised her massive blade as if about to sever the iron masked arrancar's head from his shoulders, but froze as she felt the first of their enemy making their way to the hilltop. The chained beast snapped in the direction of the incoming shinigami, fire filling up all three of its throats as it fought to free himself, eager to taste the sweet flesh of its favorite prey.

The presence they felt was none other than the captain of the eleventh division, Shiori. When he arrived he held his position sitting as if the arrancar were not even there. He had his head tilted to the side looking like a confused school girl as to how they'd even breached the security into the seireitai. The guardians of the gates must have been incapacitated for them to do so. They couldn't have come through a garganta without someone noticing long before now. If they'd come this far already they had to have been well hidden. No matter. Just the very sight of them caused the undying hatred he had towards hollows to blossom. Because of the signature they gave off only one was at the level of a captain in terms of reiatsu. The others were probably no more than lieutenant or less. Lucky for him as he only had his lieutenant and third seat at his side. The others were Lieutenants of other divisions as their captains had been called to another battle ground.

He finally stood up to address the Arrancar threat by placing his hand on the weapon across his back. "Under normal circumstances. My kind benevolent heart would have given you a chance to surrender peacefully. Yet, the sight of your kind sickens me to my core. I do not plan to allow you to further sully this place with your filthy existence. You think you can just come and take things as you please? You're welcome to try. I'd love to watch you try and resist the curtain call on the final act of your life..." With this statement he drew his zanpakuto to signal the others to spring forth from their position to surround the enemy units.

Only now as shinigami began to gather before him did it become clear that the iron mask over the lead arrancar was not a mask at all, but his actual face as he opened his mouth and began to laugh. The others could show their fear for all he cared, but he was a warrior and even though a captain stood against him with several powerful fighters gathered around him he would show no fear, for he had none to show. The chain grew taut as the hellish beast tried to break away and go right after the captain, snarling as it snapped its jaws in his direction, but its attention turned to one of the lieutenants as the man approached.

"Steady Cerberus, you will get to eat in just a moment, savor the moment before the kill my friend."

The head arrancar opened his mouth wide revealing several rows of jagged fangs, glowing yellow eyes staring at Shiori without once blinking or looking away, as if the title of captain meant nothing to him. His arrogance continued even as the battle began with several of the shinigami fired off Shakkaho towards him and his servants, laughing as he released his hold upon the chain letting his pet beast leap forward, smashing right through most of the blasts in mid flight as it flew right at the third seat jaws wide open aiming to bite down upon the man's neck who defended himself by using shunpo to gain a bit of distance. The lesser arrancar completely ignored the Hado absorbed by the large hollow and started to engage the follows of Shiori. However the leader charged straight for Shiori, scythe trailing behind him as he ran until at the last moment where he swung his curved blade in from the side looking to sever his head from his shoulders. His entire body began to glow as he charged into battle, as if he was entirely made of super heated iron.

"First blood will be mine!"

Shiori just brought his left hand up tossing the blade over from his right. He held it reverse hand to catch the edge of the scythe as it clashed it with. Allowing the Arrancar to forcefully reposition him off the ground he used the momentum of the swing to sling shot over to the three-headed Hollow. He lifted his right leg slamming the flat of his foot into the beasts side to knock it over giving the third seat his chance to strike. The leader didn't like the fact he was utterly ignored by the feminine red head and chose to bring himself forward once again only to be met with a slash of Shiori's own. He parried with the pole of the scythe and proceeded to follow the captain in a furious high speed battle.
