Vizard
Name: Barda Kaazaki
Gender: Male
Age: Appearance: 16 Age: 627
Ranking: Masked Syndicate: Council Member #7 - Kido Master
Physical Description:
**A general Picture**
I'll start with the facial description.
- Barda has wild, unkempt hair that is a shade of white with a tinge of silvery hue. It is of medium length, about the average for male hair. It looks like it is everywhere because it is simply untameable. No matter what Barda has tried, his hair stays the same.
-Barda's eyes are a very vivid yellow. His eye's seem piercing and hawklike, as though the see all...which they can't.
-The rest of his face is normal, if normal really is normal. He has a nose, chin and ears like other humanoids. Normal.
The Body description:
-Barda has the body type "thin and wirey". He never had the body type for noticable muscles or anything. If it counts, his slouching and feeble looking body makes him look like a weakling. But, T'is best not to judge by first look. Many enemies have learned this.
His Clothes: *seen in pic above*
-A simple white long sleeve button up undershirt that he keeps buttonned up. Over this, he keeps on a blue over shirt that is buttonned up only in bad weather. The cuffs and tail length is larger than the undershirt. His pants are black blue jeans, slightly long in leg length so that they cover up some of his shoes, which are simple brown slip ons. Sometimes, Barda wears a necklace of mysterious origins. It is a silver chain with a small symbol attached that looks like a mask from old opera shows.
Personality
Barda has what might be called the "High IQ" complex. Being gifted with an IQ of 174, he has the natural belief he is of higher thinking than some of the other beings in existance, which overshadows any modesty he may have. He tries to be kind but it just comes out as him being brash or not caring.
To strangers, Barda can seem brash and arrogant. He will act sheepish, like he is zoned out or in his own little word while talking to them using the least minimal effort. However, he usually listens intently, in case he learns something useful.
To people that actually manage to get close to him (which isn't as hard as you think), Barda is a worthy ally. He is a useful bank of information and will find out what you need, making him the "librarian" of sorts. He can usually call out some less-than-obvious traps, or if a situation is out of line. He remains his calm and collected self, but is willing to show emotions to his friends and allies. He will also risk injury (or his life if serious enough) to save a person close to him or take a blow to help out someone in need.
When angered, Barda will seem to show a blank face. However, his voice and body language will betray him: he becomes very tense, and he will sound as though he is forcing himself not to explode or erupt in a fountain of angry lava that would engulf the peaceful people of the island.
However, when saddened, Barda will be an obvious mope. He lags behind in what he does, and he will have the look on his face saying "Someone Ran Over The Cat" . It is extremely hard to cheer him up - he will perform reverse psychology on you out of habit so that nothing anyone says can cheer him up, except for himself.
However, no mind is without a loose screw. Barda has a flaw or two. For example, while he is an excellent strategist on the battlefield, he will end up overthinking EVERYTHING. This can better be simplified to "no common sense". A simple task may ellude him.
Also, as a further note, he also rants. He can keep talking on and on, an not even notice if his listeners have left or even gone to ignoring him. He gets this from his past of hour long conversations with his zanpaukuto, or even his Hollow self.
History:
Human Life:
Barda was born on 1493 to Felix and Marisa Kaazaki. His father was a foreigner for another land, Norway, while his mother was of lower class Japan. His family lived in a small house in a small peasant farmer villiage. However, not much is remembered by Barda, because at the age of 3, Barda's family was killed in a fire from a bandit raid, killing him as well.
Rukongai
After his death, Barda passed on to the Rukongai, while his parents did not, for that had many regrets and things unfufilled in life. So, there was a 3 year old spirit, alone in what turned out to be Rukongai District # 71. But, by some miricle godsend, Barda managed to survive by being discovered by a roaming group of the rukongai 70s districts, and being picked up by one of the members who still had barely enough sympathy to stay "human". Barda was raised by this nameless man for about 40 years. By which, Barda, or his soul, had grown to be about 7 or 8 ish. At that point, the man he called his caregiver was recuited by the Shinagami Academy, leaving Barda alone again.
This left Barda to roam about to Rukongai, always sleeping where he could find, or eating what he could get and steal. However, even Barda realized that this was no way to live.
Academy Yearsand the Gotei 13
After being dead for 154 years, Barda was growing desparate for a way out of this horrid place known as home. He began to realize that the only way to make a living was to enlist in the Academy.
After a harsh reality check that they might not take him for his appearance in age, Barda had to show them that he could be one of their equals. He worked 5 years on developing his spirit pressue, although he didn't know it at the time. He learned to manipulate the nergy around him, while an unknown voice guided him.
Eventually, one of the many Shinagami made a round around Barda's living area. Barda made sure to be discovered by sneaking into the back of his caravan. As the wagon was going back into the Seretei, however, Barda was discovered by the guards, and as they were going to kick him out, one of the unseated shinagamis saw something in him. He told the guard to let him see the "child" for a few minutes. After deciding that Barda was capable through feeling his energy while simply walking, he put in a word to let Barda enroll into the Academy.
Barda noticed that he was different from the other students. First off, he was definately shorter. Second, he felt that all of these others lacked. They were, for the most part, those from wealthier livings than him. He felt that the majority of them were stupid, stuck up pigs. This made him distant from everyone. However, it didn't stop him from excelling. He passed written tests easily, and kidou was most definately his strong point. However, he did have to work on his hand-to-hand and weapons training.
In his 4th year, he graduated. He was accepted 2 years earlier than others for his persona and test scores. However, he was lacking in hand-to-hand combat, and some of his fellows felt he shouldn't have been accepted because of this.
Barda graduated in his 4th Year- slightly earlier than others. He was taken in directly to the 7th Seat rank in 12th Company due to his speciallization in kidou and genius.
As he lived a normal Shinagami life, caryying out missions, doing paperwork, and, most important to him, talking with his zanpaukuto, he noticed something dwelling within him. A menacing voice, like an evil coin face of his conscience. Little did he know what it would mean.
One day, as the up - and - coming 4th seat of his squad, he had a misshap in his own room. While continuing with some frustrating work, and talking to his zanpaukuto, suddenly a shadow of a menace came over his mind, clouding him. He fought for control with it, but he was losing. In his mind, his zanpaukto's world was in chaos as a Barda look alike fought against him, calling himself "the true controller of this body" and being "his mirror self". On the outside, Barda's body had drawn his zanpaukuto and was flailing around, swinging. Luckily, no one was around. After a few short minutes, it was over- the hollow Barda had left Barda with a warning..."I'll be back."
As the vice captain to 12th Squad,many years after graduation nad his horrifying incident with his hollow self, he was put in charge of a training course for new graduates. However, a fight broke out between two of the students, and that's when it happened. Something took over him while breaking up the fight- his inner Hollow. In a blast of rage and carnage, he killed on student and fatally wounded 3 before regaining control. At that point, Barda knew he had to leave. He went renegade, leaving through one of the many hell butterfly gates.
Becoming a Vaizard
As Barda was stuck hiding in the living world to escape the fearful memory of striking those poor students, he eventually came to terms with what he was. He was a monster, unless he could find a way to control himself.
That's where the Masked Syndicate came in.
He found them by accident, but it was the best moment in his life. he had been fighting off a powerful and greedy hollow, and although he had defeated it, he was gravely injured. However, it just so happened to be that on that night, he had fought and fallen right outside of the Vaizard HQ. After awaking the next morning, still hurt, he managed to crawl and find a way in, resting. As he was intruding, they found him. He realized that they were like him, and he could be helped. The vizards promised to take him in to give him the teaching he required.
Now, he is even a council member. But.....what happens now?
Additional Info: Loves strategy games, like chess or Go. Reads books alot. His them song is Fly From The Inside by Shinedown
General
Name: Garasu Tooboe Akatsuki ((Crow in the Howling Dawn))
Spirit Description:
Barda's spirit, who shortens her name to Garasu, is an odd one. She loves ot hear herself talk, and is never quiet - it is lucky it doesn't bug Barda. She is usually cheerful and has a "sunshine everyday" attitude.
The actual spirit world is set in a grassy plain that is neverending. It is ONLY grass on hills and plains as far as the eye can see with no other plant life, rocks or other land features. The moon always seems to be in the sky, though it is as bright as day with a clear blue sky.
Sealed: Regular Katana, except for the hilt. The guard is octoganal, but other wise has the same guard design. The hilt has a red and black wrap around it.
Shikai
Activation Phrase: "Fly With Pride, Garasu Tooboe Akatsuki!"
Appearance: The sword itself doesn't change very much. Essentially, the blade becomes slightly longer, though thinner. This allows for a swifter stroke. However, it's ability is it's strong point, essentially classifying it as a "Kidou" class zanpaukuto.
Abilities:
"Zekkyou Umou (("Screaming Feathers" ))
A kidou blast, in essense. The sword is swung while shouting the attack name. In midswing, a concentration of yellow energy is forced through Barda's arms and into the blade, then blasted out in a cresent like wave. It moves at a high speed, but can still be dodged or blocked. This move has it's limits, however, as the energy for the attack is taken from Barda. At the moment, 17 attacks is his limit in a battle without rest or using his Hollow mask, in which it can be increased within his stamina limits.
Bankai
Activation Phrase: "Bankai! Ro-yaru Garsau Chishio Niiro Tooboe Akatsuki!" Royal Crow in the Blood Red Howling Dawn
Appearance:
First of all, spiritual pressue, speed, and power is increased, like other Bankai.
Second, the sword changes completely from a sword to some sort of out-of-this-world kidou blade. The hilt remains the same, but the original blade is utterly changed. It looks almost like a regular katana, except for the etched hollow lines on the blade, like a water irrigation system. However, pure kidou energy can be channelled into this blade via the grooves, so that it becomes an energy sword. This makes it much more deadlier. The length of the blade can be increased, but not actual "steel"...energy extends from the end to increase it to add up to 2 extra feet to the blade.
Third of all, Barda grows wings from his back. They are identical, black feathered crows wings from his shoulder blades. He can actually fly with them, and, while he could normally jump or use his spirit energy to keep afloat, these allow him to move at high speed
Abilities:
*the blade's kidou ability counts as an ability, just used in the description instead of here*
The previous attack, "Zekkyou Umou" can be used, but it's power is increased dramatically. Think of it multiplied by about 5 in terms of strength, size and power.
Finally, all the kidou Barda uses is increased in power. Say, a regular Kidou blast would destroy a hill. Now, it would destroy the hill AND create a large crater around it, descimating everything.
Appearance: The typical "Mirrow Image." Looks exactly like Barda himself, merely completely white with black pupils. Talks and sounds just like him as well. Thinks like Barda for the most part, except that he is a little on the "Murder Everyone" side. Enjoys fighting with AND against Barda. This scares Barda- it was as if he was fighting himself, like an evil twin brother. Barda has given him the name Kyoumen after he called himself "his mirrow image". It is shortened to Kyou.
The mask is in essense a rectangle shape. It curves around his head, like a veiled hat. It is larger up top than down below, and curves slightly on the sides as it gets down on the curve of his face. The "teeth" of the mask actually end the mask, for their is no chin section, just two rows of block teeth.
It has brown markings on it in a blocky line spiral design, curling around on the right side of his mask.
The Hollow increases his Zanpaukuto's power in general, but otherwise just doesn't give any new abilities, just amplifies the ones he already has.
Level Of Control: Level 2: 3-6 posts masked state, 3 posts resting.
Hollow Abilites:
Cero:: High-powered energy blasts that can be fired from various body parts, such as mouth, tongue, hand or fingers
-Shunpo / Flash Step - A movement ability that allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow.
-[1] Thrust - Pushes target away from the caster
-[31] Shot of Red Fire - Fires a ball of red energy at the target
*Incantation: Ye Lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, The sea barrier surges, March on to the south!*
-[33] Blue Fire, Crash Down - Fires a burst of blue spiritual energy at a target in a similar manner to 31, but over a wider area and with more power.
*Incantation - Ye Lord! Mask of flesh and bone, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance, Upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws![18] In the English dub, it is read as "Ruler, the mask of blood and flesh, all things in the universe that fly, that which names all! In the name of truth and temperance, dig your claws into the wall of sinless dreams!
-[63] Thunder Roar Cannon - Fires a massive wave of yellow energy at a target.
*Incantation: Sprinkled on the bones of the beast! Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring. Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm. The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle! *
-[63] Twin Lotus blue Fire, Crash Down - Essentially a doubled version of #33, this spell fires two shots of blue fire with greater potency than the single-shot variety. This spell is equally as difficult to cast and control as Raikôhô, therefore they both share the same number.
*Incantation - Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens.
-[61] Six Rods of Prison Light - Summons six thin, but wide, beams of light that slam into a target's midsection, holding them in place.
*Incantation: Carriage of thunder. Bridge of a spinning wheel. With light, divide this into six.*

Roleplay Sample:
".....So.....what do you think?"
Sitting alone in a small room, it might have looked like he was talking to himself. However, Barda was having a conversation with his zanpaukuto spirit, Garasu.
Well......I suppose you could try and simply ask.
Barda's expression sullened.
"Yes, well, you know how Kyou will react......" He sighed. He knew that no matter what, this wouldn't turn out right.
Well, who gives a damn about him! Garasu's voice sounded impertannent and impatient. She was getting tired of this conversation.
"But.........oh, forget it. I'm gonna ask him."
Barda had been debating on trying to found out more about his inner hollow, Kyoumen, but was slightly frightened to ask. It might show a sign of weakness, and that would be shown as a chance to strike. However, he had to ask. He stopped his talking connection with Garasu to delve into his mind to find him.
"........"
Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in. A condensending and twisted voice, Kyou's comment to Barda's arrival was the usual.
"Oh, shut it. I came on good will." Barda sneered to himself. Wow, he, his hollow, and his zanpaukuto were sure pieces of work.
Barda's conscience shifted from the room to his inner world, where the endless grassy field met him. Across from where he was standing on the opposite hill was his inner Hollow Kyou, grinning madly with his head cocked back and both hands resting on his sword hilt. Kyou's black eyes stared at him intently.
"...So, Kyou. Prepared to talk to me yet?" Barda asked, his expression blank.
Not yet, young fool. I'll never talk to you freely. You gotta beat it out of me. The hollow then slowly pulled out his zanpaukuto.
Barda sighed, shook his head in disbelief, then slowly drew his own soul cutter.
"You never change. For once, I'd like to have a civilized chat with you....."
Kyou cut him off. Talk is for the weak!
Suddenly, great spiritual pressue was emitted off of the both of them. The grass moved wildly like wind was blowing, and as Barda and Kyou both set, kneeling into battle positions, the moon in the sky watched eagerly, as though a king at a joust.
VOOM
It came in a instant. Both combatants used shunpo, meeting in the center with a severe clang from their blades as sparks showered off. As they pushed each other back, they dissapeared again at the lightning speed, this time their steel meeting farther to the west, with Barda on the defense as Kyou made a wild attack.
------Several Hours Later----
Both of the fighters, Barda and Kyou, were breathing heavily. Wounds covered them like flies to honey, and they both looked ready to drop. Kyou, gasped, then stuck his sword in the ground to stay upright.
Not good enough, punk. But, the fighting has to end in a draw today.....try again.
The world before Barda dissapated, then he realized he was still back in the small room.

Zanpakuto
General
Name: Garasu Tooboe Akatsuki ((Crow in the Howling Dawn))
Spirit Description:
Barda's spirit, who shortens her name to Garasu, is an odd one. She loves ot hear herself talk, and is never quiet - it is lucky it doesn't bug Barda. She is usually cheerful and has a "sunshine everyday" attitude.
The actual spirit world is set in a grassy plain that is neverending. It is ONLY grass on hills and plains as far as the eye can see with no other plant life, rocks or other land features. The moon always seems to be in the sky, though it is as bright as day with a clear blue sky.
Sealed: Regular Katana, except for the hilt. The guard is octoganal, but other wise has the same guard design. The hilt has a red and black wrap around it.
Shikai
Activation Phrase: "Fly With Pride, Garasu Tooboe Akatsuki!"
Appearance: The sword itself doesn't change very much. Essentially, the blade becomes slightly longer, though thinner. This allows for a swifter stroke. However, it's ability is it's strong point, essentially classifying it as a "Kidou" class zanpaukuto.
Abilities:
"Zekkyou Umou (("Screaming Feathers" ))
A kidou blast, in essense. The sword is swung while shouting the attack name. In midswing, a concentration of yellow energy is forced through Barda's arms and into the blade, then blasted out in a cresent like wave. It moves at a high speed, but can still be dodged or blocked. This move has it's limits, however, as the energy for the attack is taken from Barda. At the moment, 17 attacks is his limit in a battle without rest or using his Hollow mask, in which it can be increased within his stamina limits.
Bankai
Activation Phrase: "Bankai! Ro-yaru Garsau Chishio Niiro Tooboe Akatsuki!" Royal Crow in the Blood Red Howling Dawn
Appearance:
First of all, spiritual pressue, speed, and power is increased, like other Bankai.
Second, the sword changes completely from a sword to some sort of out-of-this-world kidou blade. The hilt remains the same, but the original blade is utterly changed. It looks almost like a regular katana, except for the etched hollow lines on the blade, like a water irrigation system. However, pure kidou energy can be channelled into this blade via the grooves, so that it becomes an energy sword. This makes it much more deadlier. The length of the blade can be increased, but not actual "steel"...energy extends from the end to increase it to add up to 2 extra feet to the blade.
Third of all, Barda grows wings from his back. They are identical, black feathered crows wings from his shoulder blades. He can actually fly with them, and, while he could normally jump or use his spirit energy to keep afloat, these allow him to move at high speed
Abilities:
*the blade's kidou ability counts as an ability, just used in the description instead of here*
The previous attack, "Zekkyou Umou" can be used, but it's power is increased dramatically. Think of it multiplied by about 5 in terms of strength, size and power.
Finally, all the kidou Barda uses is increased in power. Say, a regular Kidou blast would destroy a hill. Now, it would destroy the hill AND create a large crater around it, descimating everything.
Inner Hollow
Appearance: The typical "Mirrow Image." Looks exactly like Barda himself, merely completely white with black pupils. Talks and sounds just like him as well. Thinks like Barda for the most part, except that he is a little on the "Murder Everyone" side. Enjoys fighting with AND against Barda. This scares Barda- it was as if he was fighting himself, like an evil twin brother. Barda has given him the name Kyoumen after he called himself "his mirrow image". It is shortened to Kyou.
The mask is in essense a rectangle shape. It curves around his head, like a veiled hat. It is larger up top than down below, and curves slightly on the sides as it gets down on the curve of his face. The "teeth" of the mask actually end the mask, for their is no chin section, just two rows of block teeth.
It has brown markings on it in a blocky line spiral design, curling around on the right side of his mask.
The Hollow increases his Zanpaukuto's power in general, but otherwise just doesn't give any new abilities, just amplifies the ones he already has.

Roleplay Sample:
".....So.....what do you think?"
Sitting alone in a small room, it might have looked like he was talking to himself. However, Barda was having a conversation with his zanpaukuto spirit, Garasu.
Well......I suppose you could try and simply ask.
Barda's expression sullened.
"Yes, well, you know how Kyou will react......" He sighed. He knew that no matter what, this wouldn't turn out right.
Well, who gives a damn about him! Garasu's voice sounded impertannent and impatient. She was getting tired of this conversation.
"But.........oh, forget it. I'm gonna ask him."
Barda had been debating on trying to found out more about his inner hollow, Kyoumen, but was slightly frightened to ask. It might show a sign of weakness, and that would be shown as a chance to strike. However, he had to ask. He stopped his talking connection with Garasu to delve into his mind to find him.
"........"
Well, well, well, look what the cat dragged in. A condensending and twisted voice, Kyou's comment to Barda's arrival was the usual.
"Oh, shut it. I came on good will." Barda sneered to himself. Wow, he, his hollow, and his zanpaukuto were sure pieces of work.
Barda's conscience shifted from the room to his inner world, where the endless grassy field met him. Across from where he was standing on the opposite hill was his inner Hollow Kyou, grinning madly with his head cocked back and both hands resting on his sword hilt. Kyou's black eyes stared at him intently.
"...So, Kyou. Prepared to talk to me yet?" Barda asked, his expression blank.
Not yet, young fool. I'll never talk to you freely. You gotta beat it out of me. The hollow then slowly pulled out his zanpaukuto.
Barda sighed, shook his head in disbelief, then slowly drew his own soul cutter.
"You never change. For once, I'd like to have a civilized chat with you....."
Kyou cut him off. Talk is for the weak!
Suddenly, great spiritual pressue was emitted off of the both of them. The grass moved wildly like wind was blowing, and as Barda and Kyou both set, kneeling into battle positions, the moon in the sky watched eagerly, as though a king at a joust.
VOOM
It came in a instant. Both combatants used shunpo, meeting in the center with a severe clang from their blades as sparks showered off. As they pushed each other back, they dissapeared again at the lightning speed, this time their steel meeting farther to the west, with Barda on the defense as Kyou made a wild attack.
------Several Hours Later----
Both of the fighters, Barda and Kyou, were breathing heavily. Wounds covered them like flies to honey, and they both looked ready to drop. Kyou, gasped, then stuck his sword in the ground to stay upright.
Not good enough, punk. But, the fighting has to end in a draw today.....try again.
The world before Barda dissapated, then he realized he was still back in the small room.
