Arrancar
Name: Anaklusmos Vycarius (Shortens it to Ana)
*Anaklusmos is greek for "Riptide"*
Gender: Female
Age: 442
Ranking: Numeros #12
Base Type: Adjuchas
Physical Description:
**just a basis picture**
While Anaklusmos looks like this, she is still one of the DemiMasked. Her mask, covering the upper right part of her face, is almost sharklike, representing her latin name meaning Riptide. Her mask has small, yellow jagged patterns all over the mask, like small lightning bolts.
Anaklusmos has steel gray bone armor, plated, covering her arms, legs, shoulders and upper chest. The rest is covered by a slight robe-dress that is more or less a tan cloak, tied around into a makeshift dress. It's.....hard to describe. She refuses to wear the customary Arrancar wear. Though I hate the reference, think Nel's outfit crossed with the customary Arrancar white suit.
The armor on her wrists curves forward in cruel demi-arcs, like blades that extend to the middle of her hand. These attribute to her predator like appearance and contribute to her unique powers.
Her red eyes seem to glow even in the darkest of pits, and this is said to be able to frighten away the lowest of the low and the cowardly. Her lavendar hair falls over her face, even her masked side.
Personality
Anaklusmos is not the typical Hollow. In fact, after 400 years of wreakage and carnage and killing, becoming an Arrancar....changed her. She became calm and collected, and only killed when nessecary, or when she was attacked. She kept her personality as an Arrancar.
Anaklusmos, perfering to be called Ana by those she knows, and Lady Ana by hollows lower than her, loves a good fight. She enjoys the challenge. However, that said, she will never seek out a fight for no reason. Strangely enough, sometimes she will come up with reasons for fighting people, like a minor insult being deamed as "You will lose your Head". Anyone weaker than her should be careful in even addressing her.
To other Hollows brave enough to think it, they think that she is a disgrace. Anaklusmos lacks any need for conquest or a thirst for power. Many have tried to knock her off her pedastal of power in the high Numeros ranks, yet she still remains.
As her history will reveil, she is not above making some very odd choices, such as refusing upbringers in power or rank, or sparing a foe because she believed that they could do a better fight next time.
History:
Birth/Death:
Born under the name Summer Dosu in 1658, she was a unique child. Since her birth was at a chime hour, 3 AM, she could see ghosts. She lived a pretty normal life, being born to a family of rural farmers in present day Berlin.
Throughout school, Summer was cast off as a freak since she was constantly plagued by visions of ghosts and Hollows. She was paranoid and fearful, being misunderstood by others as being shy and inward. Many times she was called a "witch", yet nothing was done to her.
After school, when she was 20, Summer tried to get away from poor farm life and move to the city. However, as she ran away, she was attacked by a rogue Hollow, and quickly became one of them. She was pronounced Missing and Dead by her family.
Hollow Years:
As a Hollow under the name Vycarius, she spent many years attacking and killing many humans, spirits and shinagami alike. While not very powerful, she was crafty, and not a mindless killing machine. She quickly discovered that killing and devouring other Hollows gave her even more power, and set out against that. At least a hundred of her brethren fell against her might and hunger.
However, in her realization for power, Vycarius realized that she needed to merge with others to attain Menos status, risking her personality. She gathered with a group of more powerful hollows and combined, becoming an intelliagent Gillian. Her persona was the one adapted by the Gillian.
As the Gillian Vycarius grew in status and power, her quest for more led her to even attack higher ups. She went to the Human World at one point, destroying an entire forest in search for a few tasty hollows....however, she had to retreat since Shinagami arrived on the scene. Once, she came upon a mortally wounded Numeros Arrancar, and, in his deathly state, could do nothing to prevent being eaten. Thus became the start of the Adjuchas Anaklusmos Vycarius.
Adjuchas Ana was fierce, predator-like and power hungry. She attacked any and everything in sight she knew she could take down. Hollows of lower standing began to avoid her, and those brave enough to approuch vanished shortly thereafter. She had a small band of followers at one point, but became quickly annoyed with them, and quickly devoured them, absorbing their meager powers. She quickly and calmly struck at her victims, never going for a full on fight, perfering blitzkrieg attacks to fair tactics.
Eventually, Ana's thirst for power went downhill as she reached her climax, realizing she could no longer gain more power. She feared she would never reach the penultimate in hollow democracy: Vasto Lorde. However, she was wrong.......she never thought she could attain the cross between two warring factions, the Hollow and Shinagami. It would change her severely, as she would find out to her personality.
After becoming one of the most feared and powerful menos in her class level, she got into a fight she would lose - against an psuedo~Arrancar. While not as powerful as others, this one was still strong enough to beat Anaklusom badly. However, she managed to escape while the Arrancar was feeding on some other less fortunate Hollows. Ana then realized how to gain more power - remove the mask. Become part of both worlds - shinagami and hollow. After finding a secluded place, she began the harsh proccess of removing her mask from binding. Half of it came off - and her spiritual pressue soured as she was transformed into her current form.
Not knowing what to do with her newfangled powers, she decided to go and pay a visit to the home of the other Arrancars. Upon arrival, a few noticed her strength and willingness to help their cause. They accepted her, and branded her Numeros #12
Abilities (pre Resurrección): None aside from the standard Hollow abilites. However, her Hierro is stronger on her arm blades.
Additional Info: Theme Song: Psycho by Puddle of Muud
General:
Appearance:
Resurrecctión
Activation: "Plana e Acosar, Surface and Hunt, Tiburon!! Shark"
The blade is held in an overhead pose with the spare hand cupped around the tip, then slid through the hand at high speed as the blade glows blue.
Armor/ Appearance:
Anaklusmos is enveloped in a slight blue light before an explosion of smoke surrounds her from the resonating energy.
Her facial mask dissapears, and under her eyes there are 3 identical blue lines from the under side of her eyes to her chin area. Her teeth become sharper, more jagged.
Her armor changes, morphing to cover her entire body. While her armless robe covers down to her thighes, the rest of her skin surface is turned a steel gray as scaled bone armor is seen. Her wrists both have short, fin like serrated blades coming off of them. they are about 4 feet in length, and as sharp as any blade. 3 fins come off of her back, the middle one bigger than the other 2.
Abilities:
Tiburon Mandíbula Cero ((Shark Jaw Cero)):
A more powerful version of cero in it's own custom state. As the energy builds up in the palms of both hands, it fluctuates wildly. Once blasted, the energy seems to take on the shape of a biting shark, crunching down on it's target.
Bala :: The technique hardens the user's spiritual pressure and fires it like a bullet from their fist. Though weaker than a cero blast, it moves about twenty times faster
[Arrancar only]
Cero:: High-powered energy blasts that can be fired from various body parts, such as mouth, tongue, hand or fingers
[Menos, Arrancar, & Vizard only]
Garganta:: It literally tears open the dimensional fabric separating the worlds, revealing a tunnel of whirling, torrential energy that must be focused and solidified to create a discernible pathway
[All hollow possess this ability, though the appearance of the ability differs according to a hollow's strength]
Hierro:: Hardened skin caused by the compression of spirit power. This allows Arrancar to block released Zanpakuto bare-handed, but is not impenetrable. Stronger Arrancar possess stronger skin.
[Arrancar Only]
Negacion:: A field that surrounds a target and pulls them towards the caster. This is often used to rescue or protect fellow Hollow
[Menos class and Arrancar only]
Pesquisa:: The ability to sense and track spiritual power
[All hollows may possess this, though the strength of this ability depends on the strength of the user]
Sonido:: Allows the user to travel at incredibly high speeds for short distances, similar to flash step.
[Arrancar only]
Other Characters:
Barda Kaazaki, Vaizard, Council Member #7 ((still trying to get him approved too))
Roleplay Sample:
"....Hmph....."
Walking from a great smoking crater outside Las Noches, Anaklusmos Vycarius sneered at the great fortress wall. It seemed pathetic compared to the places she'd seen in The Mask. Walking into the front gate, past the cowardly guards, she entered the establishment.
She was proud of being a Numeros. She wasn't shunned to being a worthly Fraccion, yet didn't have the higher risks and duties of an Espada. She grinned.
I'm right where I want to be... She thought. Oh, yes, being where you needed to be was a powerful thing indeed. No need to complain about where she was on the food pyramid.
About that time, one of the more brutal Numeros appeared from around the corner, sneering, zanpaukuto drawn. He was of the weaker kind, still more hollow than humanoid.His odd fish face sneered.
"I'm tired of you waltzing around, acting liek you're in charge of the rest of us Numeros....so I'm gonn--"
The sentence was left unfinished, as Ana was used Sonido to get behind him and slice out his throat from behind with her own zanpaukuto. Blood seemed to dance from the entry wound, painting the corridor as his body crumpled over.
"Shut up and die already."
She then proceded to walk away from the bleeding mass that was the dead Arrancar. She hated it when someone approuched her with violent attempts at her life.....she always had to retaliate and kill. Killing was too bloody, too messy....dieing instantanious, now that would be exciting to see. She smiled at her own thoughts.
