Physical Description:
Taza
Taza has a bit of a fragile look to him, he stands at five foot nine, and has a extremely slender, almost anorexic looking body. He is very petit looking as if he has almost no muscle mass. But you must always remember that looks can be deceiving, because he has the vegeta syndrome. His small body allows for him to easily move past and get away from the typically far larger espada. It also gives off the false look as if he is indeed weak, but taza is as strong as he his old. Taza’s facial features show a quite young and easy going kid looking no older then eighteen. One of the first things one would also note about Taza is his dark blue hair that is kept a little shorter then shoulder length. He also has blue eyes that seem to shine like the ocean during noon. The next thing one would notice is that at first glance he seems to have no mask whatsoever. But looking at him from the back one would see it; his mask fragments are behind his ears and run down close to his upper cheek area. One would also notice he dose not have the ghostly skin as most espada do, in fact his skin is slightly tanned. His hollow hole is threw his mid abdomen, and he keeps his tattoo on the palm of his right hand, it is also blood red.
He also dose not wear the typical espada uniform. He has a custom clothing that if nothing else is more comfortable. He wears a black tank top most of the time with no real details to it. It comes down slightly past the end of his abdomen. He also wears black fingerless gloves. They are made of leather and have several cuts and places where the layer of leather is missing and the brown leather sticks out. The gloves are roughly half a centimeter in width and go up to about two inches from his elbows. On rare occasions he dose wear a long coat over his shirt that has also been dyed black, when he dose this he usually dose not wear gloves. He wears the typical espada pants only dyed black instead of the typical white. He wears black combat boots, or something that looks similar to regular shoes.
Personality
Taza is not like your typical espada, he is kind and would rather solve things with diplomacy then violence. He believes that all spirts, hollows and shingami alike have a right to life and should not fight with the hatred they do. He also sees the Vizard as half brothers so to speak, because they know what it is like to live the life of a shingami yet also have the struggles of a Hollow. Humans he finds are the most important in the balance because all spirits where once humans, and without them constantly dieing and being born hollows could not live and shingami would not exist.
He tries to resolve every problem he can by coming to a compromise or just letting other people duke it out while he sits on the side lines. But on the rare occasion that he dose have to get involved in a fight you should know that hell is coming, for he trains every day for hours at a time. When push comes to shove he will show you why he is Dos Espada.
He is very protective over his fellow espada and other hollows. He would gladly go out of his way to protect hollows from each other and shingami. He often helps vostro lords and the arrancar become stronger and help vostro lords become arrancar. He wanted to unite the hollows into a society similar to the one that exists in Soul Society but where all hollows are accepted into ranks under the rule of the Royal Family. He believed that there rules is absolute and would do whatever they asked no matter what he felt personally. When the royal espada was destroyed he was crushed, and felt like he had failed his meaning in life until about a few days ago when Grave talked to him and helped him find some self realization and now he is going to try to form a oligarchy over Hueco Mundo lead by the Esapada themselves. The espada acting as a court room over matters similar to a jury where all votes are counted equally and Uno espada would be like the judge.
Taza is also a fun loving guy, he enjoys hardly anything more then kicking back, listening to music way to loud, and having drinks. He knows that what would once harm him like liquor and smoking no longer do, so sure he will light a cig with you, or drink hard liquor. When he is in the human world he particularly loves going to “raves” as he quite enjoys techno music. In fact he has set up a ipod stand running off of a generator so he can listen to the music even in hueco mundo.
His favorite genera of music are metal and techno, but finds unmatched beauty in classical music. He loves music that he can relate to or that make him feel a urge to get up and dance. Which brings me to another point, he can break dance, and he dose it often. Whenever he wants to express himself he generally will put on music and dance, or write his own music. You see he also has a guitar (electric and a acoustic) he has even brought a piano which he keeps in the center of Los Noches so everyone can enjoy it.
In his book loyalty is the most important thing in the world. He believes that if anyone is not loyal to someone or something and would turn there back on it for something better or easier is worthless and should be exterminated. Taza was extremely loyal to the Royal Family until they where destroyed by Death and his group along with the shingami. Because of his loyalty it has caused him to work on a way to destroy the Vostro Lord called Death and the shingami that are responsible for killing the espada and the royal family. But you must keep in mind that what he is looking for is not revenge, or even vengeance, but justice. Because he knows that none of the shingami or the vostrolord would accept a trial by the espada personally so they must be dealt with the only way that they can be by the espada.
Taza always has tried to exact justice the best that he could, and give everyone a chance to at least let people here there side of the story, though the Royal Family did not always approve of these things so more often then not he has had to become the executioner. He often took pity on the ones he had to kill and felt lucky that it was him who was the one killing them instead of them killing him. Because of these often missions his perception of things was ever so slightly altered, but his kind heart never went away. In fact because he was forced to do these things he tried harder to help those who might later face his blade at there throat.
Now one thing Taza doses enjoy, is the occasional spar. He loves competition and enjoys hardly anything more then winning a contest. Even though he dose not enjoy the ruthless killings he find sparring as a test of his abilities as a Espada and his opponents abilities incase it might come to them fighting at some point. This is the part of his flip side that often comes out.
Taza you see, is like a coin. He has two sides to him, but both are equally him. What I have described for you is like him being on “Heads” but when he is flipped to Tails he is completely different. Some days he is like a completely different person who is ruthless and lashes out against people.
It is on these kinds of days where his hollow side takes over, and he gives into the need to feed on other souls and his quest for more power takes him over destroying his humanity. These moods generally last for a few days at a time, and when he is like it you best steer clear because he doesn’t care if your arrancar or human he will kill you and eat your soul. It is because of this sort of destructive behavior that can take over him that reminds him just what life use to be like as a young hollow.
Taza is also a lover of speeches, he often goes to the realm of the living in order to watch the politicians give speeches, though his favorite speeches where ones by Japanese Emperors, and some American Presidents such as Lincon and Regan. He also enjoyed loved listening to the ones by ancient emperors such as Cesar and even listening to the speeches of Aristotle.
One thing that Taza particularly hates is when people try to blame others for there problems. The whole “Oh my daddy was mean so ima kill everyone I see!” or when people hate some one yet they stay with them or people who have just try to make everyone else miserable. He thinks that people who cant take blame for there actions are plagues and should not be allowed to infect and destroy other people and therefore should be killed or kept away from society.
He also hates it when people think they are smarter then everyone else and will never listen to anyone else’s ideas because they believe there opinion is the only one that counts. He also hates it when people who are flat out stupid try to tell him what to do or how to do it. Taza is a very smart person, and he knows that he is one of the oldest hollows in existence. He has walked the earth and hueco mundo long enough to know how things work and what they world is like. Over the almost six and half millennia that he has lived he has watched the world kill itself over and over. And because of this he believes that people need to be controlled other wise there will be to much carnage in the world and hueco mundo is going to fill up.
When he was alive he remembers that he use to love apples more then anything in the world. And whenever he goes to the human world he eats whole bushels of apples in his Giga. But when he turned hollow he remembered that the tastiest souls where the fresh ones, the ones where he had actually killed them and ate the souls. They where like the perfectly ripen strawberry with juices and all. And occasionally he likes to feast one a strawberry or two.
History:
Crying could be heard form a new born as he was held in his mothers arms, still covered by liquids and blood his shut eyes and slightly wrinkled head was all that could be seen as he was wrapped in a blanket, held closely by a slightly tanned women with black hair black eyes. He was born in a small village in modern day Korea, when the shingami where becoming greater in number and stronger in power. The mother had tears of joy in her eye as she kept saying, “Taza.. Taza.. Taza.. Taza.. ta.. taza.. ta……” As these last few letters escaped her mouth her eyes shut and the child could feel his mothers grip weakening. His father walked in with a wet rag and when he saw the women unconscious he paniced putting the new born on the floor as he tried to help his wife, who unfortunately was in fact dead.
Taza was the child’s name, as it was agreed on by the parents before his mothers death. His father and some of his siblings viewed him as a murderer, who had taken away there mother and wife. The only one who did not view him like this was his big sister who was born only the year before. Taza was always a outcast from his family and the only reason he survived was because his eldest sister, along with other women would take it upon themselves to feed him. But even then he suffered from malnutrition. It was in all honesty a miracle he survived the years where he could not take care of himself.
At age six he was on his own, and he would often have to take care of his seven year old sister who kept by his side instead of the rest of there family. He would spend all day plowing felids without the help of oxen or cattle trying his hardest to grow crops with his brothers so that he would live. His older brothers had two oxen each to help plow there primitive farm, and laughed whenever he asked to use the oxen. All his life it was like this, his brothers punishing him for something he did not do, killing his mother.
During his ninth winter they ran out of food, there was no more whet in the shed and the small amount of livestock they had was quickly dieing because of no food or because they had to eat them. His father stopped eating most meals and when there oxen and other animals died in the middle of a blizzard they turned to Taza’s older sister Ketara. They had taken her one night and where about to slit her throat when taza walked into the room. When he saw what they where doing rage rushed threw him and his power had awakened. Blue energy formed around his fist as he punched his eldest brother in the chest sending a blue beam from his arm blowing a hole threw not only him but also his father and one of his other brothers. As he turned to the rest of his “family” they ran away into another part of there three room house. Taza untied his sister and dressed her in several layers of clothes including fur from there animals and grabbed the three parts of meat they had left and ran from that cursed farm for the village. On the way to the village Taza fell and told his sister to keep going as he tried to get up telling her not to look back and that he would be right behind her. AS she listened Taza could feel his body freezing to death. Eventually he past out and when he awoken he saw his body on the ground covered in snow and ice and he had a chain to his chest…
Taza walked to the near by village watching as his chain dragged across the ground, what is going on? He often thought to himself, and when he entered the village he could tell that no one could see him. There where others like him though, people who had chains in there chest. They told him that he was in fact dead and that his chain was slowly going to corrode. And that is exactly what it did, Taza traveled a lot and always was going some where. But at least twice a year he would visit his old house and curse his family, wishing he could show them what had happened to him.
It was seven years later that he walked past his old farm, his chain of fate a few links from being completely destroyed. “You bastards have no idea what I have gone through! DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO BE DEAD!” as he yelled this, his chain of fate started to eat itself again, and he watched as it hit the last link and watched as he started to change. He tried to fight it as a mask formed around his face and slowly it grew until he was formed into a hollow. He looked at the house he once lived in and a beam formed near his head as he shot it at the house destroying half of it.
He looked at himself with a feel of godliness, power filled him as humanity was ripped away and he did not object. He flew towards the house and laughed as he looked at his siblings with fear across there face. His body had changed into something only similar to a bug, he had for legs, and two spikes for arms. He pierced his oldest sister and lifted her body off the ground and moved her close to his mouth as he ate her savoring the taste. He then stabbed his two other brothers and ate them as he then looked at his last sibling, his meanest sister. Once she tried to kill him with a stone to his skull. He pierced her leg and then threw her across the field causing her leg to rip off. He walked over to her as he laughed as she screamed in pain. He stuck her in both shoulders and pulled until he ripped them both off and then he put his face into her devouring her body, along with a bit of grass.
And that is how his decent into the darkness began, it was in a matter of weeks that he had destroyed the once active and life full village into dust. Three of the villagers out of the two hundred or so where spirit sensitive and had helped him grow in power more then the others, he had even ate his sister, the one person he did cherish in life. He then moved on one of the biggest villages of the time, it had a population of 7000 or so and was the busiest place he had ever seen. It was here that he had also met his first hollow. IT went by the name of Kezat and was over a hundred years old. It took Taza under his wing, literally because he was a winged hollow looking similar to a terradactyl. For the next twenty years they ravaged that town until it was as barren as Taza’s old village.
Two years later Taza encountered his very first Shingami. He was a young cadet who had just recently graduated the academy and was 32d seat. He was of African decent and talked with a rather funny (to Taza) accent and kept badgering on as to how he was going to end him. As the man looked at Taza with his sword in his hand, Taza grew quite bored and whacked the man into a building with his tendril like arms. As the man got up he was quickly barraged by three ceros shot simultaneously at him. The man slowly got up clearly injured by the unexpected attack, and before he had regain a footing he was pierced by one of Taza’s tendrils and lifted into the air, causing him to drop his zanpakuto. Taza threw the man into the air caught him in his mouth as he made his decent. It was then that his body changed he became what is called a Menos, Gillian.
He loved the new burst of power he felt and believed he could do anything with it. As his partner returned Taza sensed his power and was sucked in and controlled by it. When his partner turned his back and to look at the city they where going to take over next Taza stabbed him right in the back and once in the wing. The hollow cried in pain as Taza bragged him with cero after cero until he was dead, and he then feasted upon the far stronger hollows soul. It enthralled him and intoxicated him even more then the previous shingami. He loved every moment that he tasted the soul and absorbed its power.
This was the turning point for Taza, it was now that he was truly consumed by his quest for power. And for the next four hundred years he would devour everything he found until he became the rank of Adjuchas. It was then that he felt a new calling inside of him, and he left the realm of the living for relatively newer place called Hueco Mundo.
Taza entered Hueco Mundo in a place that was called the Menos Forest. There he saw other hollows several as powerful and some even far stronger them himself. He noticed they where unlike him and that they worked together and defended each other, they helped each other, and hunted together. They where like a family, something he had never been accustomed to. He was accepted into there society and there he learned the proper way to hunt prey, some hollow, some shingami, some human. He often would go back to the realm of the living with them and would watch as others ate souls and if they became damaged he would bring them back to the ground and help heal them. IT was here that he learned how to control the hunger that had controlled his actions for hundreds of years. Though growing in power was slower with the other Adjuchas and Gillians that he was with, it was safer and for two hundred years he hunted in groups of twenty or so all taking turns.
It was during one of these hunting’s that a shingami had intervened, he was unlike the others in the fact that he did not ramble and was clearly a lot stronger then all the previous ones. He was a sixth seat Shingami and was quite seasoned, and well known. Because when the menos saw him they ran, all but Taza.
“Weaklings!” He shouted at the scared menos unaware of what power a sixth seat actually had. He turned to the sixth seat shingami and circled him as he thought of the meal to come when suddenly the shingami attacked. Taza moved to blocked only to have one of his tendrils cut off by the shingami. He growled in pain and sent a cero his way, when the shingami jumped into the air to dodge the cero he sent another and then another, until he had hit the shingami with a cero and knocked him to the ground. He the started to shoot several ceros at him, the shingami got out of the onslaught and activated his sword, something taza had never seen done before. Taza jumped out of the way of a slash that the shingami had aimed for his chest, only to have a blue energy wave be shot at him from the sword knocking him into a building and putting a small hole in his chest. The shingami charged at him in attempt to stab him in the mask, but when he neared him he was hit by something he did not expect, a blue energy beam that knocked him forty feet into the air. “Never seen that before have you?” He said as he smacked the shingami to the ground with his remanding tendril.
The shingami was injured badly by the blast and coughed up blood as he hit the ground making a slight creator. Taza stood over him and shot five ceros into him and the pierced his body with his tendril. “NOW DIE!” as he said this he devoured the shingami. His body then started to glow as he started to change once again. A white light seemed to rip apart his body, until there he stood as a completely changed hollow. No longer did he have a beasts body, but now something close to a humans. He still had his mask but the rest of him looked similar to the shingami that he had just eaten. “What am I?” he asked himself as he noticed his arm was bleeding, badly. He was then taken into a gold sphere and was taken back by the menos.
When he awoke the menos told him he had reached the most powerful stage of the menos chain, he was now what they called a Vostro Lorde. He looked at a pool of water and saw what he now looked like. He had blue hair, stood at five foot nine, he looked like he did before he died, or at least had some similarities that could be identified with his nine year old body and his now teenager body he also looked close to the shingami he had just eaten which he found very interesting.
It was almost ninety years later that something actually happened to Taza. He was sitting around next to the Adjuchas and Gillians that lived in the menos forest when one Gillian got it in his head that Taza could just be pushed aside.
He walked over to Taza and smacked him with a rather large leg sending him skipping across the sand for about twelve feet. Taza got up and yelled some rather horrible things at the Gillian and decided he would show this weakling what it meant to attack him. As he ran at the Gillian he charged a Cero, the Gillian looked at him as he saw him jump into the air and the next thing he knew a cero had gone threw his mask killing the hollow. Taza looked as several Adjuchas started to advance on him.
One particular Adjuchas named Ieja got close and said, “You have killed a fellow hollow, breakings are code and now you must face the consequences.” With that said all of the hollows shot out ceros at Taza. Taza crossed his arms and was prepared to die when he felt his energy shoot out of his body causing him to not only block the beams but send all of the hollows back twenty feet or so. Taza fell to his knees as he looked at the hollows and felt the same confusion that he felt the day his powers awakened the very first time.
Slowly he got up and looked at all of the hollows slowly getting up to. He charged a cero at his pointer and middle finger and pointed it at the one called Ieja and shot him threw his mask. He charged up five more and shot at the hollows that rose to quickly, killing three of them. He then realized just how low on riatsu he was and so he ran, he flew off into the eternal night to get away from his immanent death. It was three hours later that he found himself about to collapse, and then there they where, two other vostro lordes that took him under there arms and helped him live.
When he regained consciousness he realized what had happened to him and was on the defensive from the Vostro Lordes but slowly they gained his trust, as they where very persuasive. It was two days and three Gillians later that Taza felt better and strong like his usual self. He learned that the name of his rescuers where Luna and Hito. He decided it would be best to stay with Hito and Luna for the moment as he realized he wasn’t nearly as strong as he could be. Over then next several hundred years he grew a unbreakable bond between Hito and Luna as they grew in power and in reputation. That is until that unforgettable day.

History:
Before the light..
Crying could be heard form a new born as he was held in his mothers arms, still covered by liquids and blood his shut eyes and slightly wrinkled head was all that could be seen as he was wrapped in a blanket, held closely by a slightly tanned women with black hair black eyes. He was born in a small village in modern day Korea, when the shingami where becoming greater in number and stronger in power. The mother had tears of joy in her eye as she kept saying, “Taza.. Taza.. Taza.. Taza.. ta.. taza.. ta……” As these last few letters escaped her mouth her eyes shut and the child could feel his mothers grip weakening.

He would spend all day plowing felids without the help of oxen or cattle trying his hardest to grow crops with his brothers so that he would live. His older brothers had two oxen each to help plow there primitive farm, and laughed whenever he asked to use the oxen. All his life it was like this, his brothers punishing him for something he did not do, killing his mother.
During his ninth winter they ran out of food, there was no more whet in the shed and the small amount of livestock they had was quickly dieing because of no food or because they had to eat them. His father stopped eating most meals and when there oxen and other animals died in the middle of a blizzard they turned to Taza’s older sister Ketara. They had taken her one night and where about to slit her throat when taza walked into the room. When he saw what they where doing rage rushed threw him and his power had awakened. Blue energy formed around his fist as he punched his eldest brother in the chest sending a blue beam from his arm blowing a hole threw not only him but also his father and one of his other brothers. As he turned to the rest of his “family” they ran away into another part of there three room house. Taza untied his sister and dressed her in several layers of clothes including fur from there animals and grabbed the three parts of meat they had left and ran from that cursed farm for the village. On the way to the village Taza fell and told his sister to keep going as he tried to get up telling her not to look back and that he would be right behind her. AS she listened Taza could feel his body freezing to death. Eventually he past out and when he awoken he saw his body on the ground covered in snow and ice and he had a chain to his chest…
The lunge into darkness..
Taza walked to the near by village watching as his chain dragged across the ground, what is going on? He often thought to himself, and when he entered the village he could tell that no one could see him. There where others like him though, people who had chains in there chest. They told him that he was in fact dead and that his chain was slowly going to corrode. And that is exactly what it did, Taza traveled a lot and always was going some where. But at least twice a year he would visit his old house and curse his family, wishing he could show them what had happened to him.
It was seven years later that he walked past his old farm, his chain of fate a few links from being completely destroyed. “You bastards have no idea what I have gone through! DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO BE DEAD!” as he yelled this, his chain of fate started to eat itself again, and he watched as it hit the last link and watched as he started to change. He tried to fight it as a mask formed around his face and slowly it grew until he was formed into a hollow. He looked at the house he once lived in and a beam formed near his head as he shot it at the house destroying half of it.
He looked at himself with a feel of godliness, power filled him as humanity was ripped away and he did not object. He flew towards the house and laughed as he looked at his siblings with fear across there face. His body had changed into something only similar to a bug, he had for legs, and two spikes for arms. He pierced his oldest sister and lifted her body off the ground and moved her close to his mouth as he ate her savoring the taste. He then stabbed his two other brothers and ate them as he then looked at his last sibling, his meanest sister. Once she tried to kill him with a stone to his skull. He pierced her leg and then threw her across the field causing her leg to rip off. He walked over to her as he laughed as she screamed in pain. He stuck her in both shoulders and pulled until he ripped them both off and then he put his face into her devouring her body, along with a bit of grass.
And that is how his decent into the darkness began, it was in a matter of weeks that he had destroyed the once active and life full village into dust. Three of the villagers out of the two hundred or so where spirit sensitive and had helped him grow in power more then the others, he had even ate his sister, the one person he did cherish in life. He then moved on one of the biggest villages of the time, it had a population of 7000 or so and was the busiest place he had ever seen. It was here that he had also met his first hollow. IT went by the name of Kezat and was over a hundred years old. It took Taza under his wing, literally because he was a winged hollow looking similar to a terradactyl. For the next twenty years they ravaged that town until it was as barren as Taza’s old village.
Two years later Taza encountered his very first Shingami. He was a young cadet who had just recently graduated the academy and was 32d seat. He was of African decent and talked with a rather funny (to Taza) accent and kept badgering on as to how he was going to end him. As the man looked at Taza with his sword in his hand, Taza grew quite bored and whacked the man into a building with his tendril like arms. As the man got up he was quickly barraged by three ceros shot simultaneously at him. The man slowly got up clearly injured by the unexpected attack, and before he had regain a footing he was pierced by one of Taza’s tendrils and lifted into the air, causing him to drop his zanpakuto. Taza threw the man into the air caught him in his mouth as he made his decent. It was then that his body changed he became what is called a Menos, Gillian.
He loved the new burst of power he felt and believed he could do anything with it. As his partner returned Taza sensed his power and was sucked in and controlled by it. When his partner turned his back and to look at the city they where going to take over next Taza stabbed him right in the back and once in the wing. The hollow cried in pain as Taza bragged him with cero after cero until he was dead, and he then feasted upon the far stronger hollows soul. It enthralled him and intoxicated him even more then the previous shingami. He loved every moment that he tasted the soul and absorbed its power.
This was the turning point for Taza, it was now that he was truly consumed by his quest for power. And for the next four hundred years he would devour everything he found until he became the rank of Adjuchas. It was then that he felt a new calling inside of him, and he left the realm of the living for relatively newer place called Hueco Mundo.
The blood stained sands of time.
Taza entered Hueco Mundo in a place that was called the Menos Forest. There he saw other hollows several as powerful and some even far stronger them himself. He noticed they where unlike him and that they worked together and defended each other, they helped each other, and hunted together. They where like a family, something he had never been accustomed to. He was accepted into there society and there he learned the proper way to hunt prey, some hollow, some shingami, some human. He often would go back to the realm of the living with them and would watch as others ate souls and if they became damaged he would bring them back to the ground and help heal them. IT was here that he learned how to control the hunger that had controlled his actions for hundreds of years. Though growing in power was slower with the other Adjuchas and Gillians that he was with, it was safer and for two hundred years he hunted in groups of twenty or so all taking turns.
It was during one of these hunting’s that a shingami had intervened, he was unlike the others in the fact that he did not ramble and was clearly a lot stronger then all the previous ones. He was a sixth seat Shingami and was quite seasoned, and well known. Because when the menos saw him they ran, all but Taza.
“Weaklings!” He shouted at the scared menos unaware of what power a sixth seat actually had. He turned to the sixth seat shingami and circled him as he thought of the meal to come when suddenly the shingami attacked. Taza moved to blocked only to have one of his tendrils cut off by the shingami. He growled in pain and sent a cero his way, when the shingami jumped into the air to dodge the cero he sent another and then another, until he had hit the shingami with a cero and knocked him to the ground. He the started to shoot several ceros at him, the shingami got out of the onslaught and activated his sword, something taza had never seen done before. Taza jumped out of the way of a slash that the shingami had aimed for his chest, only to have a blue energy wave be shot at him from the sword knocking him into a building and putting a small hole in his chest. The shingami charged at him in attempt to stab him in the mask, but when he neared him he was hit by something he did not expect, a blue energy beam that knocked him forty feet into the air. “Never seen that before have you?” He said as he smacked the shingami to the ground with his remanding tendril.
The shingami was injured badly by the blast and coughed up blood as he hit the ground making a slight creator. Taza stood over him and shot five ceros into him and the pierced his body with his tendril. “NOW DIE!” as he said this he devoured the shingami. His body then started to glow as he started to change once again. A white light seemed to rip apart his body, until there he stood as a completely changed hollow. No longer did he have a beasts body, but now something close to a humans. He still had his mask but the rest of him looked similar to the shingami that he had just eaten. “What am I?” he asked himself as he noticed his arm was bleeding, badly. He was then taken into a gold sphere and was taken back by the menos.
When he awoke the menos told him he had reached the most powerful stage of the menos chain, he was now what they called a Vostro Lorde. He looked at a pool of water and saw what he now looked like. He had blue hair, stood at five foot nine, he looked like he did before he died, or at least had some similarities that could be identified with his nine year old body and his now teenager body he also looked close to the shingami he had just eaten which he found very interesting.
The Banishment.
It was almost ninety years later that something actually happened to Taza. He was sitting around next to the Adjuchas and Gillians that lived in the menos forest when one Gillian got it in his head that Taza could just be pushed aside.
He walked over to Taza and smacked him with a rather large leg sending him skipping across the sand for about twelve feet. Taza got up and yelled some rather horrible things at the Gillian and decided he would show this weakling what it meant to attack him. As he ran at the Gillian he charged a Cero, the Gillian looked at him as he saw him jump into the air and the next thing he knew a cero had gone threw his mask killing the hollow. Taza looked as several Adjuchas started to advance on him.
One particular Adjuchas named Ieja got close and said, “You have killed a fellow hollow, breakings are code and now you must face the consequences.” With that said all of the hollows shot out ceros at Taza. Taza crossed his arms and was prepared to die when he felt his energy shoot out of his body causing him to not only block the beams but send all of the hollows back twenty feet or so. Taza fell to his knees as he looked at the hollows and felt the same confusion that he felt the day his powers awakened the very first time.
Slowly he got up and looked at all of the hollows slowly getting up to. He charged a cero at his pointer and middle finger and pointed it at the one called Ieja and shot him threw his mask. He charged up five more and shot at the hollows that rose to quickly, killing three of them. He then realized just how low on riatsu he was and so he ran, he flew off into the eternal night to get away from his immanent death. It was three hours later that he found himself about to collapse, and then there they where, two other vostro lordes that took him under there arms and helped him live.
When he regained consciousness he realized what had happened to him and was on the defensive from the Vostro Lordes but slowly they gained his trust, as they where very persuasive. It was two days and three Gillians later that Taza felt better and strong like his usual self. He learned that the name of his rescuers where Luna and Hito. He decided it would be best to stay with Hito and Luna for the moment as he realized he wasn’t nearly as strong as he could be. Over then next several hundred years he grew a unbreakable bond between Hito and Luna as they grew in power and in reputation. That is until that unforgettable day.
