 ✣✚╚═════════════════════════════════════════╝ ✚✣ Gaia Username: Raine Shiba ╔═════════════════════════════════════════╗ ✣ ══════════════════════[ Personal Information ]═══════════════════════ ✣
Name: Hikaru Yamada
Race: Shinigami
Gender: Male
Birth Date: February 14
Age: 190 (Many assume that Hikaru is much younger than this- he appears 11-12 years old)
Blood Type: O
✣ ══════════════════════[ Appearance ]═══════════════════════ ✣
Appearance:
Height: 4"9'
Weight: 89 lbs
Eye Color: Bright Blue
Hair Color: Silvery-Blonde
Tattoos or Scars: None
Anything Unusual: Hikaru always has some version of pink on his person.
✣ ══════════════════════[ Spiritual Connections ]═══════════════════════ ✣
Kido: Hikaru does not specialize in kido. He focuses primarily on sword combat.
Healing Abilities: Though Hikaru is not capable of generating healing kido (or at least he is unsure of how to do it), he is highly proficient in medical treatment. He understands injuries, and knows what remedies and/or operations need to be done in order to restore the individual back to good health. He uses medical equipment in order to heal others.
Shunpo Level: Hikaru is known for his high speed running ability, so he rarely ever has to resort to shunpo. He is able to use lieutenant-level shunpo however. Combining both his unnatural speed and Lieutenant level shunpo does not improve his speed. Instead, it allows him to become more agile and nimble- maneuvering with ease. Either way, he cannot best shunpo like that of a Captain's.
Hakuda: None
Zanpakuto Name: Kumatsume (Bearclaw)
Zanpakuto Appearance: In its sealed form, Kumatsume is a simple pink katana that is designed to suit a child-size body. Attached to the very top of the hilt are two pink tassels that have, attached to them, multiple bear charms and colorful beads. The actual tsuba (handguard) is in the shape of a bear head (a circle with two circles above for 'ears').
✣ ══════════════════════[ Shikai {Optional} ]═══════════════════════ ✣
Shikai Incantation: "Protect us... Kumatsume!"
Shikai Appearance: Hikaru's child-sized katana bursts outwards with a pink reiatsu, molding and forming into a colossal sized club, about the size of twice his body size... The enormous club, bursting with spiritual energy, is then brought down on any of his enemies. The club is octagonal in shape and tapered from top to bottom.
Shikai Abilities:
• Hikaru has the option to select between a Defensive Shikai or Offensive Shikai. He cannot alternate between the two during the course of his Shikai Release. To change, he'd have to seal his zanpakuto again, and release it once more. This forces Hikaru to have to make the decision as to which weapon he will need more and at what time. Additionally, this will explain why Hikaru often waits until he can determine whether he needs to focus on Defense or Offense in a fight.
• Offensive: Kumatsume channels all of Hikaru's reiatsu in such a way that it collects energy in preparation to deliver a considerable amount of damage. When Hikaru smashes it against an opponent, the shell of the club breaks open and bursts with reiatsu- creating something of a sonic boom with each attack. Hikaru's attacks are purely reckless and power-based.
• Defensive: Hikaru's second release is the ability for the club to separate and mold into two very large bronze bear-claw looking arm plates in which he combines his strength with explosive power to create a very strong shield. When Hikaru plants the two enormous arm plates into the ground, it creates a shield that can deflect most projectiles, even that of a cero's, though it may heavily damage the plating.
✣ ══════════════════════[ Bankai {Optional} ]═══════════════════════ ✣
Bankai Name: Not Yet Achieved
Bankai Appearance: Not Yet Achieved
Bankai Abilities: Not Yet Achieved✣ ══════════════════════[ Background Information ]═══════════════════════ ✣
Personality: At first glance, one might assume that Hikaru Yamada is a completely innocent child. In reality, he possesses enough power to match up evenly to the famous (or infamous) Zaraki Kenpachi. Hikaru is extremely childish. His interests often lie in silly things like brightly colored toys or various candies. To those who do not tolerate foolishness, Hikaru often comes off as overbearing and annoying. To those who admire children and have a sensitive side to themselves, he usually comes off as purely adorable. He is optimistic, over-joyed, easily entertained, and usually giggling about something completely silly.
On his exterior, his childish appearance and bright bubbly personality masks the complexity of his thoughts. Hikaru is mature enough to understand and know what is happening- however he simply chooses to disregard it. While he is gullible like a child, it is not to the extent where he cannot understand death or a negative situation. Hikaru knows how to identify a troubling situation, but often overreacts. In the presence of a Hollow, he often cowers, refers to it as a 'scary monster'- and attempts to swing it away with his zanpakuto. Hikaru's personality is his biggest downfall, because he does not allow himself to completely understand his zanpakuto. He knows it 'kills the monsters' and is fun to carry around- however he does not recognize the fullest extent of his own power. His childish disposition is all as a result of his older brother's sudden disappearance. Umehara was Hikaru's secret role model, so once Umehara disappeared from the picture, Hikaru secured himself with his childish personality.
Getting Hikaru mad, as many Eleventh Division members can definitely agree to, is one of the worst possible mistakes one can make. Many doubt this, until they manage to piss him off.
Personal Likes:
• Sweets
• The color pink
• Toys
• Childish past-times
• Bothering Hisana Kurosaki ("Booby-sama" as he calls her) and Byakuya Kuchiki
• Stealing gems from assorted households (namely the Kuchiki Manor) and turning them into bracelets to give as gifts.
Personal Dislikes:
• "Scary Monsters" or Hollows
• Vegetables
• Paperwork (Hikaru will end up hiding the stack of paperwork under a carpet or something)
• Tea, Coffee, or Alcohol
History: Hikaru was the second-born child to the Yamada family (to Seinosuke and his wife). As an infant, he was well respected among family members and regarded to as the ideal successor. While Umehara was not as sociable and outgoing, Hikaru was gregarious and open- easily making friends with those who came across him. After growing up, following Umehara as a role model, Hikary immediately entered the Shinigami Academy. During his time there, Hikaru faced great difficulties controlling the vast amount of spiritual pressure contained within his being. He failed miserably at most Kido tests, yet passed exceptionally in all of his combat exams. Hikaru depended purely on brute force, obliterating his opponents by continuously smashing them down. By the time he graduated from the Academy, Umehara had been exiled from the Soul Society. Hikaru fell into a short period of depression, assuming his older brother to be dead. Because of this, his zanpakuto comforted Hikaru by revealing it's Shikai.
Hikaru joined the Fourth Division immediately after leaving the Shinigami Academy. It made little sense to others why he chose to do so, for his powers focused purely on smashing things to bits- which would probably be more useful in Squad Eleven. It seemed, however, that Hikaru was extremely helpful around the barracks (aside from doing paperwork, which he often dumped in other squad rooms). Though Hikaru was very childish and seemingly naive, he still was as useful as any other Squad Member. He often attended Unohana's ikebana classes, and frequently went on outings with Yachiru Kusajishi (often creating a massive problem for other Captains). Hikaru was also among the few of the Squad 4 members that was not bullied (and was actually, to some degree, respected) by members of the Eleventh Division. This was due to the fact that the day three members of the Eleventh Division attempted to mess with Hikaru, they were dealt with mercilessly, and now cower in fear at the mere mention of his name. He was promoted to 10th seat, and worked within Hanataro Yamada's (his uncle) relief team. Around the time of Ichigo's Soul Society invasion Hikaru was among those who believed heavily in Rukia's release from captivity. He did not take any active part in rescuing her like his uncle did, however.
For the extent of the year, Hikaru remained in his position- performing his usual daily routines and improving his skills and abilities. Several years later, at the time of the Winter War, Hikaru had been promoted to Fifth Seat of the Fourth Division. Helping Isane Kotetsu get over her mourning of her Captain's death- the entirety of the Fourth Division played an active role in medically treating casualties in the battle. Hikaru, t'ill this day, still serves the Fourth Division- but is eligible to receive another promotion. With the talk of the creation of a new squad, he was nominated to represent the Fourth Division as one of the new Division's seated members.
