- Character Personality Momo is an eccentric little girl to say the least. Though very much so a grown woman, Momo rarely ever fully ‘acts her age’ and instead chooses to act how old she appears. Despite her recent Captaincy Momo still tends to act like a child, much to the dismay of her associates and subordinates. This is attributed to Momo’s innate aptitude for learning. The girl often breaks out in temper tantrums, and will pout or frown and scream when something doesn’t go her way. She has the belief that her child-like appearance gives her the freedom to express her innermost thoughts and will rarely bite her tongue unless specifically commanded by someone of higher authority. On her good days, Momo is bubbly, friendly, and vivacious, and a pleasure to be around, but on her bad days moving a mountain would be easier than coercing her to do anything. That being said, the girl exhibits wisdom beyond her appearance, and although more common than not the things she says may sound childish, beneath the surface the inner meaning can be well beyond anything anyone would expect from her.

- Bio: Momo was born Chinatsu Shibusa, daughter of the infamous Katsuo Shibusa, disgraced Head of the Clan and usurper who traitorously banished Cheshā as a means to put himself in the position of power. Corrupt and power-hungry as he was, Katsuo managed to father himself a child by a woman of lesser nobility, Nanoka. Nanoka was an avid supporter of Katsuo’s cause, even going so far as to encourage his behaviour and support him whole-heartedly however she could. Their child was born on the 9th of August and named Chinatsu, in honor of Nanoka’s grandmother. It was a momentous occasion for the Shibusa family, but even Chinatsu’s birth did little to mask the reality that the family was living in. Katsuo’s traitorous actions could not be overlooked.
Chinatsu was raised not by her parents, who felt they had bigger issues to tackle. Instead, Chinatsu was given to the care of Ochiyo, a servant girl. Tasked with one thing: keep the child alive, Ochiyo raised the baby girl like one of her own, and the two had formed a special bond of sorts. Yet Chinatsu’s life in the lap of luxury was cut short when Ochiyo overheard the plans of Katsuo’s overthrowing. Fearing for the life of the child, Ochiyo fled in the dead of night, bringing Chinatsu with her. The pair fled into Rukongai, donning commoners garb and selling any article of clothing that could have given their identities away. Ochiyo began to refer to the baby as Moriko, or Momo for short.
When Katsuo caught news of this, a search party was sent to find and retrieve his daughter at all costs. About six months of intensive searching later, Ochiyo was found hiding in the 78th district of East Rukongai. They detained her and spent a little over an hour attempting to get answers as to Chinatsu’s whereabouts, but to no avail. Ochiyo was killed for her insolence, and her body was thrown out into the street and left to rot. Ochiyo’s head was taken back to Katsuo as proof of their finding the caretaker, and it was reported to that Chinatsu died by the hands of Ochiyo when the search party had finally found her. They claimed that Chinatsu’s body was buried under a peach tree, going so far as to set up a makeshift grave the night before they left the Rukongai.
Ironically, the girl really could be found under the peach tree some days after Ochiyo’s death. Of course, nobody in Rukongai knew who she was, and no one truly cared. The sad truth was that she would be another mouth to feed in any family, so they walked by, feigning blindness, ignoring her cries. When someone finally did approach her, it was to silence her. Permanently.
Crime wasn’t uncommon in the farther districts of Rukongai – exploitation, thievery, even murder seemed to be a daily occurrence. It became a sort of spectacle even, and even the murder of children happened so often that any shock value it normally had was gone. With a swift kick to the torso, Moriko was sent flying into the tree, but before the attacker could finish her off Momo was saved by Xenmas. Though no serious or life-threatening injuries were inflicted on the girl, damage to her Saketsu and Hakusui resulted in the leakage of her Spiritual Power early on, and the sudden manifestation of her Zanpakuto in its unsealed, Shikai state.
From that point on, Momo was cared for by Xenmas, and the bond flourished into a powerful brother-sister connection. Though they might not have been related by blood, they learned that such a trivial thing could easily be overlooked. As time passed and Momo grew older, it soon became evident that something was wrong with the girl. Decades, even a century had passed, and yet she barely grew an inch. The pair took the journey to Seireitei, hoping someone there would have the answer. The pair were taken in, and within that week, were enrolled in the Shino Academy. Momo learned of her affliction whilst studying: damage to the two points in her body that allowed access to her spiritual power. As a result, Momo learned that she would never be able to fully control her spiritual power. This was not due to a lack of trying, but as a result of a physical disability.
Momo proved to be a natural in the Shino Academy. Her Zanpakuto was unconventional, and the Zanjutsu instructors did have difficulty in creating a lesson around it, but they made do and Momo was left to fill in the blanks where needed. She showed particular prowess in Hakuda, finding that her size gave her unprecedented benefits in stealth and speed. However her endeavours with Kido were… commendable to put it nicely. When it came to the theory, Momo could recite the spells, their effects, and their appearance with ease, but when it came to the execution it was considered a miracle if the girl didn’t blow herself up or injure the students around her. She lacked the control to properly utilize spells, and passed only based on the fact that she knew everything else apart from the execution.
Momo graduated rather early, completing her studies in just two and a half years. She was enlisted into the Thirteenth Divison, where she was placed into a seated position mere weeks after joining to the shock and dismay of her squad members. Despite her childish nature, Momo proved to be one of the most efficient shinigami in the division, ascending to the Lieutenant position within a decade, and becoming the Captain of the division after the passing of its former in the Second Great Ash War.

- Character Skin Color/Ethnicity: White
- Character Height: 48 inches / 121.92cm
- Character Hair Color: Momo's hair is a light, almost silvery blonde that never fails to draw attention in areas of natural light. In intense light, Momo's hair appears as a shimmering silver color, and in dimly lit spaces the light (or lack of it) brings out the soft golden hue. Her hair so soft and striking that people on many occasions have referred to it as 'gold/silver-spun silk' on her head.
- Character Hair Length/ Style Momo's golden-silvery locks is always let down. Her hair is long enough to reach the floor when she's in a seated position, and cover her entire back when standing. She brushes it daily, and before even leaving her room Momo takes every precaution to ensure that her hair is neat and tidy, despite the occasion. Momo has bangs that effectively frame her face, and a small tuft of hair that comes down between her eyes. There has never been a day in which Momo's hair was said to be messy in any way.
- Character Eye Color: Momo has a unique eyecolor, distinct from the members of her clan. It takes on a bright green hue, which is believed to be the same color as her mothers' eyes.
- Character Description: Momo is a short, child-like Shinigami who, at first glance, may seem to pose no threat whatsoever. For children who are the same age as she appears, Momo is of average height - a whopping 4 feet. tall. Her body, though underdeveloped, is much more toned than the average child's body, but she's quite thin and delicate-looking underneath her layers of clothing. She has pale skin that is more likely to burn than it is to tan, and big green eyes that only enhance her child-like appearance to an entirely different dimension. Like much of her body, Momo has dainty little hands and feet, but her kicks and punches pack a lot of force, and her skin seems to be as tough as that of any experienced Shinigami.
- Character Attire: When on duty, Momo wears the standard Shinigami Shihakusho underneath her white Captain's Haori. Like most of her clothes, the uniform had to be custom tailored to fit Momo's height, though for her robe the girl requested that her sleeves be kept slightly longer than they need to be. As a result, in her Captain's Haori Momo looks more like a child playing dress-up than a proper Captain of the Gotei 13, though a large part of that was strategic, making people assume Momo was inept as a captain and underestimate her, when in reality the girl is entirely qualified for the job. On her days off, Momo can almost always be seen in a sundress of some sort, frolicking in the flowers whilst wearing a ridiculously oversized flowery sun hat that casts a shadow large enough to cover most of her top-half, regardless of the sun's position,
- Character Tattoos/Markings/Scars: As a natural born member of the Shibusa clan, Momo was given the Emblem of Nobility, branded on the back of her right hand. The emblem was done in such a way that Momo thinks it a birth mark rather than a sign of noble status.

 ♡ Zanpakutō Name: [いんどうの四トランプ] Indō no Yon Toranpu
♧ Zanpakutō Spirit Appearance: Momo’s Zanpakuto spirit takes on the form of a youthful looking girl draped in torn red robes. The girl is about a head taller than Momo, and is always seen wielding a pure black sword which Momo presumes is her Zanpakuto’s sealed form, a state that she has never seen due to her inability to stop her reiryoku from leaking uncontrollably. The girl has blonde hair much like Momo, though the spirit’s hair is a much richer golden color. More often than not, her face is hidden by the shadow of the hood, but those who do get a good look at her will instantly notice the four suits tattooed to the girl’s cheek, starting with the black spade in the leftmost corner, a red heart to the right of it, a red diamond below the spade and a black club beside the diamond. The spirit itself tends to be soft-spoken with a limited vocabulary, but somehow Momo understands her Zanpakuto spirit completely. They share a certain bond, as the spirit itself was one of Momo’s mentors and caretakers, the girl having manifested her Zanpakuto early on in a constant release form.
♢ Zanpakutō Sealed Form: Momo doesn’t know what the sealed form of her Zanpakuto looks like. She believes the sealed form has an appearance similar to that of the blade her spirit carries – a purely black sword. In reality, the sealed Zanpakuto is a black sword of similar design, but with a blood red streak running down the center.
♤ Shikai Status: Mastered
♡ Zanpakutō Shikai Activation Statement: [ ゆめれ] Yumere Zutto (Dream Forever)
♧ Zanpakutō Shikai Name: [最後のソナタ] Saigo no Sonata (Final Sonata)
♢ Zanpakutō Shikai Appearance Momo’s Shikai is unconventional in that unlike what is normally expected from Shinigami with their weapons, Momo’s shikai takes on the form of a teddy bear roughly half the size of her (as depicted). There is a blade concealed within Momo’s Zanpakuto, which can be drawn by detaching one of the teddy’s arms – it appears as a black and red dagger, twelve inches in length, which is surprising to most when the girl produces it because not only can it not be felt while the bear’s arm is attached, the blade itself should be poking out of the bear even though it never does.
♤ Battlefield Changes: Evidently, when the Zanpakuto itself is activated there are no changes to the battlefield; however, when Momo summons one of her four soldiers, the field changes accordingly. When her champion of the Heart is summoned, the air seems to dry out and the temperature seems to rise slightly. When the Club is summoned, shadows darken and grow longer and wider than they normally are. With Spade, the atmosphere grows thick with energy, concentrated at a single center – wherever her champion is standing, and with Diamond all sounds in the vicinity seem to be slightly muffled or disrupted, making it slightly more difficult to hear.
♡ Zanpakutō Shikai Abilities
Momo’s Zanpakuto is a unique summoning type. She claims that her abilities tie directly into not only her own innermost feelings, but the innermost feelings and essence of her Zanpakuto spirit, and Momo is capable of calling upon the physical form of any four champions that, in unity, form the whole of her weapon’s spirit. This summoning can only be done through blood sacrifice, and though she can summon a champion from any blood, her own blood provides the strongest link between her and her champion, and it produces the most powerful summoning. It should be noted that Momo is only capable of summoning one champion at any given time. To switch one champion for another, a new blood sacrifice must be made, or Momo can activate the summon's secondary state and then swap him/her out with no negative effects. Once the blood bond is made, Momo is bound to her champion via blood and reiryoku, and as a result will suffer the same damage as her champion, and vice versa.
 x x x Presented in order of Lionel (Heart), Elise (Club), Riyo (Diamond), and Viktor (Spade) in their normal and secondary forms
Lionel’s base abilities revolve around the manipulation of fire. With a snap of his fingers, Lionel is capable of producing a spark, and in the right conditions the spark can turn into a bright-red blaze that feeds off of Momo’s spiritual energy as a source of fuel, allowing it to burn faster and hotter than a typical fire. The red flames are under Lionel’s full control, and he has the ability to mould and shape the flames to his heart’s content, but due to the nature of the fire, Lionel’s attacks are purely offensive. Grave – Doppio Movimento: The command for Lionel’s secondary state is Grave, Doppio Movimento. When shouted, flames will circle around both Lionel and Momo, and rise into a blazing pillar, unleashing a violent wave of spiritual energy that almost always alerts any surrounding spiritually aware people of her presence. When the flames subside, Lionel is a grown man with slightly darker hair and glowing red eyes. The flames he produces, given full access to Momo’s spiritual energy, are black in color and their effects can be described in terms of something literally being consumed, as if tiny teeth are gnawing away at something. When the flames die, the resulting damage is uneven and really do look as if something was eating away at it. This is one of the reasons why the flames are said to be capable of burning objects that are said to be inflammable. Doppio Movimento lasts up to five posts at maximum, and for every post Lionel is in this state, this is equivalent to a one post cooldown, meaning if Lionel is in the state for five posts, then there is a five post cooldown before Momo can allow any other summon including Lionel to enter into their secondary states.
--♣♣♣ Second Movement: Kurabu The Champion of Clubs is a youthful looking girl in a black sundress. She’s about half a head taller than Momo, with a slender figure, pale white skin, rosy red cheeks and black eyes. The girl has long black hair, similar in length to that of Momo’s, but while Momo’s hair is silvery white in the sun, the girl’s hair is uniformly black, reminiscent of the night sky. Her voice is soft and airy, almost angelic-like with a hint of calming hypnotic charm. When she speaks, those who are particularly weak in spiritual energy have claimed that it felt as if a little girl was talking to them through a daydream, where her voice echoed softly and drew them into a slightly dazed and distracted state. Of the four Champions, Clubs is the most lady-like, with a taste for grandiose and sophistication. She seems to be the most prissy of the group and will readily point out any flaws or shortcomings in one’s appearance with no restrain. Momo has named this champion Elise.
Elise carries a paintbrush with her that is about 45cm in length, but no paint or ink. Instead, the champion paints with shadows, using her reiryoku to breathe life into the art she makes. Much like actual painting, Elise must wet her brush before being able to do anything, but in her case, any source of a shadow will suffice . Her attacks vary and are quite versatile in terms of what she is capable of doing: full-on works of art will take more time and reiryoku, but none are ever bigger than her. Most commonly, Elise’s artwork is something as simple as a circle, a straight line, or a triangle which is blasted towards her enemies to create blunt-force, piercing, or even cutting damage, or to absorb damage and attacks as a makeshift shield. Her shadow constructs tend not to last that long, existing for about one post before dissipating in a cloud of black ghost-like wisps. Scherzo: Elise’s secondary state can be activated by taking Elise’s hand and shouting the command ‘Scherzo’. Upon entering the secondary state, a blast of chilled air circulates through the field, spiralling around Elise and Momo as shadows raise to consume them both. Immediately upon activation, all shadows in the region will begin to ripple and protrude from the ground, all pointing towards Elise. When the shadow cocoon dissipates, Elise emerges in a strange, demon-like form, nearly twice as tall as Momo and floating. Her skin and body is black like the night sky, and her eyes are a ghostly white that emulate the moon. Her skin becomes scaled throughout, and on her head is a white helmet made of bones. Her hair reaches down to the floor. To either side of her are weird demonic dragon-dog creatures: the head of a dragon-like demon, and the body of a dog. In this form, Elise is capable of shifting her demon-dogs into various shadowy forms to attack, maim and destroy her opponents. She is also temporarily capable of conjuring darkness from her own body to use as weapons. This form lasts a maximum of four posts before dissipating, and similar in concept with Lionel’s secondary state, one post of being in the state is equivalent to a one post cooldown. --♦♦♦ Third Movement: Daiyamondo The Champion of Diamonds seems to follow the general pattern of appearances, initially appearing as a youthful girl, though as with the age progression Diamond appears to be in her early-to-mid teens, older than both Clubs and Hearts. She has light purple hair kept in pigtails, a pale complexion, and light purple-red eyes. She stands about a head and shoulders length taller than Momo. Her attire is the least formal of the champions, often appearing in some plain T-shirt and shorts reminiscent of human world attire. One of the most distinctive features of her Champion is the tattered crimson red scarf that she wears. The Champion of Diamonds rarely ever speaks, and when she does it’s normally one-word replies. She speaks with a deadly coolness in her voice, devoid of all emotion. She is by far the most ruthless of all the Champions, capable of killing with no sense of remorse or regret. She is often referred to by the others as the ‘Executioner’ of the group because of her prowess in swift kills and her ability to obey and kill when commanded. Momo has named this champion Riyo.
Riyo wields a black and silver katana with the grace and finesse of a dancer. Her speed and precision are almost inhuman, to the point where it becomes difficult to track the girl’s whereabouts when she’s on her feet and fighting. The girl is said to have such fine control of her blade that she can go so far as to merely slice off layers of skin without making the target bleed in one swing of her sword, If she wills it to. Riyo will only kill or dismember if commanded. Her blade’s sharpness is enhanced when reiryoku is channeled through it, giving her incredible cutting capabilities such as the ability to slice through a tree in one swing. Lento: By taking Riyo’s hand and shouting the command 'Lento', Riyo’s secondary state can be activated. A cloud of smoke rises from around Riyo and Momo, rapidly ascending into the sky and causing a sudden influx of spiritual energy. The pressure builds to the point where the ground begins to crack, and when the smoke clears Riyo’s secondary form can be seen towering over Momo. It takes on the form of a massive, 40 foot tall heavily-armored four-armed beast of sorts. The armor, though thick and extremely protective, weighs the girl down significantly, preventing her from making sudden, rapid and fast movements. Instead her walking is labored and slow, but she is capable of sustaining a vast amount of damage without so much as wincing, and dealing a significant amount of damage in return due to the sheer size and raw physical power. Her weapons of choice in this form are a massive warhammer, a sabre, and a pair of gauntlets. This form is the most damaging one amongst all four of Momo’s champions because of the rapid change in size, and thus it lasts the least amount of time, only a maximum of two posts before she must revert back to her normal state. Consequently, each post in this form costs two posts of recovery, thus with two posts of being in the secondary form, Momo must wait four posts before she can allow Riyo to enter into this state again. --♠♠♠ Fourth Movement: Supēdo The Champion of Spades is the oldest looking champion of the four. About half a torso taller than Momo, the champion looks to be in his mid-to-late twenties, with a muscled, toned and swoon-worthy body, black hair, and dark brown eyes. Following the general pattern, her champion is dressed in formal attire, much like Lionel in that he’s wearing a vest, a dress shirt underneath, dress pants, and leather shoes. He tends to have his sleeves rolled up, and is never seen wearing a tie as his shirt is always unbuttoned at the top to expose his broad torso. When he speaks, the man’s tone of voice is always authoritative and commanding, but not necessarily in a bad way. He chooses his words carefully and will never waste a breath repeating himself or adding extra points in that may not be entirely relevant to their situation. Momo sees him as a voice of reason and will always call for him when she’s in need of help with the duties of her Division. Where diplomacy and talking is concerned, Momo considers him to be a master and much of what she has learned over the years comes not only from her late Captain, but from her champion. She refers to him as Viktor.
Viktor, as a person, has a captivating aura about him that people may mistake as some natural thing, when in reality it is part of his abilities. Viktor’s talents lie in the absorption and manipulation of raw Reiryoku, which is naturally absorbed into his body at a fixed rate, and converted into an energy source to boost his own physical capabilities. He’s a formidable hand-to-hand combatant, possessing a vast amount of raw physical strength when not enhanced by his own natural abilities. That being said, once he starts taking in the energies around him, Viktor becomes a true powerhouse and a formidable combatant. Presto: Viktor’s secondary state is activated by the command ‘Presto’, and after taking his hand and shouting it, the energy in the immediate area begins to pulsate and fluctuate wildly , streaming around his body whilst it takes on a new, almost demonic form. His suit tears away, exposing a thick layer of purple muscle underneath, and purple wings sprout from his back. His energy conversion becomes much more efficient, allowing Viktor not only to empower himself physically, but also give him enough extra reiryoku to blast it off in the form of weakly concussive bolts. Because of her strong connection with Viktor and the nature of his abilities, his secondary state lasts the longest of the four, for a total of six posts, but it adheres to the standard rule of one post activated corresponding to one post cooldown.
♧ Achieved? Yes
♢ Zanpakutō Bankai Name: Dies Irae: Chōetsu (Transcendence)
♤ Zanpakutō Bankai Appearance: Nothing changes in terms of the overall appearance of Momo’s weapon – it remains a teddy bear with the detachable arm concealing a small blade within. The most dramatic change is in her summons, as each has a different transformation that can be induced upon command by one of four chants. The appearances of each individual summon is shown in links on each description, as well as in the compacted images at the bottom of the profile.
♡ Bankai Battlefield Changes: As in Shikai, the battlefield changes according specifically to the summon in question, and will vary depending on the summoned being’s personal abilities and skill sets.
♧ Zanpakutō Bankai Abilities
A unique aspect of Momo’s bankai is the fact that her summon must be in the Secondary State in order for its Bankai mode to be activated. As she explains, the secondary state is a crucial mediator step between her Shikai and Bankai states – due to her lack of control over her reiatsu, by forcefully going from Shikai to Bankai would be too damaging for her summoning and had historically shown a high rate of failure. To accommodate for that, Momo created the idea of a buffer step, the step between Shikai and Bankai, to ensure a smoother transition. She proved to be correct, as the sudden influx of spiritual power did significantly less damage to her summons when going from the secondary state to their Bankai state and allowed her to keep it active for significantly longer than she did before using the intermediate step.
 x x x From left to right, Lionel, Elise, Riyo and Viktor in Bankai states.Day of wrath and doom impending, Heaven and earth in ashes ending!xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Upon calling out the chant, Lionel freezes on the spot and starts to rise. His clothing begins to literally burn off his body, gathering several feet above him as the ash moulds itself into the shape of a sword. All color drains away from his face and hair until he becomes ghostly pale, and with a sudden microburst of reiatsu, the sword lodges itself into the man, causing a steady stream of blood to flow out of his would. but instead of dripping onto the floor it levitates around him. Lionel then screams out, releasing a second burst of reiatsu, though this time it radiates with intense heat and seemingly causes all the blood to drain from his body through cuts that spontaneously appear. His forearms are torn from his body and glow red with heat. He loses all ability to speak as a result of his throat being cut open to allow for more blood drainage. (Expanded Image)
In this form, Lionel is incredibly dangerous to be around. His blood, mixed with Momo’s reiryoku, becomes a deadly fuel for colorless fire appears as ripples in the air. The flames emit no heat when nothing is in contact with it, but it is still visible to the naked eye in its ethereal ripples. The moment it consumes an object, however, is the moment that people should run away from Lionel as fast as possible. The flames not only vaporize anything that may come in contact with it, the result of the reaction is explosive, unleashing a wave of smoldering heat and converting any trace of the object into flammable gasses to create real, natural-burning fire on top of this new deadly form. Despite the dramatic increase in power, the fire itself cannot travel very far and does not spread at all, but it’s deadly capabilities should never be overlooked lest someone underestimates Lionel and ends up vaporizing themselves. Even Lionel must keep the fire a certain distance away from him, creating a gap that can be exploited by those who are clever enough to see it. This mode lasts for a total of five posts before Lionel is forcibly turned back into his child form, where there is a ten post cooldown before he can enter into the secondary state again. — ♣ Elise – Mors stupebit, et natura, c** resurget creatura, Death is struck, and nature quaking, All creation is awaking,xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx When the chant is recited, Elise screams in horror, but her voice is different from what one normally hears. When she opens her mouth, it seems as if thousands of people are talking once, so when she screams, a thousand people are screaming with her. Chains appear to rise from the ground, binding her by the hands and legs whilst cloth binds her from head to toe. More chains appear, wrapping around her torso and restricting the movements of her hands. She seems to forgo the use of her legs once in this mode. (Expanded Image)
In this form, Elise is capable of traversing through the plane of existence and nonexistence as a means of instant teleportation, and is capable of using her own body as a gateway between the two dimensions, becoming one of the most effective shields known to the Shinigami community. Though in theory Elise would be able to send a living being into nonexistence, this has never been seen before and Momo herself claims that it is impossible due to the complexity of such an act, as it would be overstepping too many boundaries, and the natural laws forbid such an act from happening. However, Elise is capable of using her body as a means to block most attacks apart from physical attacks, which will physically damage her instead of passing into her. This mode lasts for a total of three posts before Elise is reverted back into her child form. A ten post cooldown is then in place before Elise is capable of entering into her secondary state again.
— ♦ Riyo – Iudex ergo c** sedebit, quidquid latet, apparebit: nil inultum remanebit. When the Judge his seat attaineth, And each hidden deed arraigneth, Nothing unavenged remaineth.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx This is a Bankai form that Momo is least familiar with, and lacks the practice to use it effectively in any combat situation. In this form, the armored shell is torn from Riyo’s body, revealing a lightly-armored four-armed humanoid creature in its place, though of equal size as Riyo was in her secondary state.
Very little is known about the abilities behind Riyo's bankai form. Her Zanpakuto spirit refers to this form as the 'harbringer of destruction', reminiscent of the chant needed to transform Riyo into her Bankai state. In truth, Riyo's ability involves the gathering of reiryoku much like Viktor's abilities, but instead this energy is discharged in a massive, violent blast with a potential for high levels of destruction. The amount of damage is proportional to the number of posts used to charge the technique, but the catch is that while Riyo charges for the blast, she is unable to move from her spot, whether it be to fend off attacks or move from point A to point B. There is a maximum of five posts that Riyo can charge for. With the first post (not counting the inital Bankai post), damage is proportional to the destruction of roughly one city block. Two posts leads to two city blocks, three posts to four city blocks, four posts to eight city blocks and, at maximum power, five posts to sixteen city blocks. After the post charge has been reached, the next post is that of the explosion, giving those around her time to flee or prepare for impact. Past the three post-charge, Momo suffers the risk of receiving damage from the resulting explosion as she herself cannot stray too far from Riyo. As of now, this is a mode that lasts only in the post of which Bankai is activated (which is not merely enough time for even the first charge explosion) before Riyo is forcibly reverted back into her child form and she must wait ten posts before being able to enter into her secondary state again. (Expanded Image)
— ♠ Viktor - Judicandus homo reus. Huic ergo parce, Deus:
Man for judgement must prepare him; Spare, O God, in mercy spare him! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxThe Bankai form of Viktor undergoes an interesting transition and one of the more dramatic changes of the four Champions. His purple flesh turns ghostly white while his face seems to melt away, leaving and a gaping hole in its place. An armor-like exoskeleton forms on his body, covering most of his body apart from his hands and face. As expected from his physical appearance, Viktor loses the ability to speak, but is still capable of communicating with Momo via telepathy. (Expanded Image)
While in this form, his ability to control and convert spiritual power is heightened to a level that allows him to manifest weaponry to aid him in battle similar in principle and mechanics to a Quincy’s ability to manifest spiritual weapons. As such, he has been deemed the ‘ultimate knight’ of the four champions. Viktor has been seen to manifest a variety of weapons to aid him in battle, but with each progressive post the weapon becomes dull and weakened as a result of unstable energy binding. This state is a mode that Momo has nearly mastered, which allows Viktor to stay in Bankai mode for a maximum of five posts before reverting back to his normal state, where there is then a three post wait before he can enter the secondary state.
♢ Zanpakutō Bankai Time Able to Hold: The duration of Bankai parallels the duration of secondary state and varies amongst the summonings. A more detailed breakdown of time duration is listed in the description of each summoning.
♤ Achieved? Yes, but unmastered.

Character StatisticsMaster Swordsman: Though she may not wield a sword into battle, Momo is known to be quite a formidable opponent when it comes to swordplay. She excelled in her studies of Zanjutsu while in the Academy, and as a Captain, the girl can hold her own even with the concealed dagger, but in situations of combat the girl will more readily rely on her Hand-to-hand combat skills. It is said that when wielding a blade, Momo exhibits a certain finesse which matches her Champion for Diamonds, Riyo.
Immense Strength: Despite her small frame and stature, Momo possesses an unnatural amount of raw physical strength, capable of matching even some of the stronger, bulkier captains of the Gotei 13. This can be attributed to the sheer amount of strength training Momo does on a daily basis, as a means to make up for her lack of useful weapon where her Zanpakuto is concerned.
Enhanced Endurance: As a result of her raw physical strength, Momo exhibits enhanced endurance, capable taking more damage than the average captain and powering through most pain and negative effects if she has a specific goal in mind.
Enhanced Durability: As with her endurance, Momo has an enhanced durability, allowing her to resist most minor forms of damage, such as being able to hold onto a normal, sealed blade without being cut.
Hakuda Master: Hakuda is Momo's particular strong suit, and the girl has always felt that Hakuda is the most useful of all the Shinigami Arts - this could be due, in part, by the fact that her Zanpakuto itself takes on the form of a stuffed teddy bear, which provides little to no combat advantage as a weapon. Thus in order to make up for her shortcoming, Momo drilled herself in Hakuda, to the point where she will heavily rely on it in battle. Despite her small stature, Momo packs quite a punch, with an amount of raw physical strength that outmatches even some of the larger, bulkier-looking Captains in the Gotei 13. Raiōken (Canon): (雷王拳, Thunder King Fist) The practitioner performs a series of ultra-high-speed punches with both arms. This technique is capable of doing a significant amount of damage to the immediate area.
Tesshō (Canon): (鉄掌, Iron Palm) An open palm strike which can effortlessly shatter a Hollow's head with a single strike.
Tsuku: (突く, Poke) Tsuku is a technique Momo created herself which utilizes a series of quick jabs and strikes at the pressure points of her opponents, leading to immense pain with minimal damage, and soreness afterwards.
Jōba noru: (乗馬乗る, Horseback Ride) With the element of surprise on her side, Momo jumps on the back of her opponents, knocking them to the ground. She then proceeds to sit on them until they figure out how to get her off.
Damusakku: (ダムサック, Dumb Sack) A swift, direct punch to the groin. With her height and childish attitude, this technique tends to catch people off guard as they wouldn't expect an attack like that from her.
Tiaraporisshu: (ティアラポリッシュ, Tiara Polish) A fancy name for Momo's variation of a headbutt
Ōjo Tappu: (王女タップ, Princess Tap) A simple backhand strike with tremendous force. If applied properly (which may be a little difficult for the girl, due to height difference), Momo's strike has enough power in it to cause severe, life-threatening injuries due to blunt force trauma of the brain.
Ai no Sukasshu!i: (愛のスカッシュ, Love Squash) A powerful strike preformed with either the hand(s) or the foot(feet). It is done with enough controlled force that Momo is capable of doing internal damage whilst little to no external damage is done to the target. Depending on the amount of force put in, damage can range from bruising to minor internal bleeding to rupturing of internal organs, though chances of that happening are slim to none. It should be noted that when using Ai no Sukasshu, Momo rarely ever makes physical contact with her opponent, which accounts for why there is no external damage.
Ai no Kikku!: (愛のキック, Love Kick) Just as the name suggests, Ai no Kikku is a simple yet powerful kick at her opponent. The damage can range depending on how much force and power Momo puts into the attack, from mild discomfort to gross bruising to something as severe as broken bones.
Shunpo Expert: Though nowhere near as fast as some of the top-tier Captains in the Gotei 13, Momo is capable of holding her own when it comes to the distance and speed of her Shunpo. Momo believes that her size plays a vital role in her ability to travel quickly from one point to the other.
Immense Spiritual Power: Momo possesses an immense amount of spiritual power, but this power is largely uncontrolled not for lack of trying, but as a result of physical damage to her Saketsu and Hakusui, which resulted in the rapid leakage of her spiritual power. Her reiatsu is a light green that matches the shade of her eyes.Child Form: The constant leakage of Momo's reiatsu has stunted her growth indefinitely. Though she is well over three hundred years old, Momo retains the appearance of an eight year old.
Constant-Release: Another aspect of Momo's uncontrolled spiritual power is the fact that she cannot (and has never) turned her Zanpakuto back into its sealed state, though she does have a general idea as to what the sealed Zanpakuto would look like based off of her Zanpakuto Spirit.

The majority of the details in this profile appear to be perfectly fine, though there is one bit that does require editing:
This is a lack of explanation in Riyo's Bankai. Similarly to the formatting of the others, the first paragraph describing appearance is present, however the second that entails the actual prowess is not. The only fix that needs to be made, in this instance, is that additional information as to what the summon is capable of achieving.
