Name: (Last name unknown) First name: Selkie
Age: Appears 28
True Age: 415

Apparel: Selkie wears the traditional shinigami robes almost all the time. He preferes to have it a little bit loosly fitted in order to allow him to give him more mobility when training, on a mission, or in a battle. Whenever he's not wearing his shihakshou and hakama, he's usually wearing some t-shirt, a pair of jeans, and black sunglasses on his head for apparel purposes only.

Personality: Selkie's personality is one that is very unpredictable. He can go from extremely bored, to uncontrollably excited. This usually happens when something interesting has came up and wants to avoid or stop what he was doing before. He's usually lazy when it comes to his training, so more often than not, he'd rather be somewhere else, or find an excuse to stall and procrastinate on what needs to get done. He gets along with everyone and isn't the type of person to hold a grudge against anyone without a just cause.



Zanpakutou Name: Akakakuhan

Zanpakutou Apparel: Selkie's zanpackto is a standard katana in both size and length that all shinigami get upon graduating from the academy, however he had a slight modification on the design made for him. The hilt is wrapped in red cloth and the guard makes a block letter U shape ( |_| <-- like that). Other than that, it's a normal katana.


Zanpakutou Spirit: Akakakuhan has pink hair and wears shinigami robes. She has no visable scars but has one on her chest. She is very hot headed and will make fun of Selkie whenever she gets the opportunity to. When this happens, Selkie usually just tunes her out or bashes her right back until she stops agggrivating him (which never seems to work as she'll always want the last word). She is a sadist who wants nothing more than to see the screams of pain from her victims. She is about 5'9'' and weighs around 150 lbs.

Zanpakutou Inner World: Selkie's inner world is a castle on a cliff with the sea crashing against the side where Akakakuhan resides. She can usually be found in the throne room of the castle sitting upon said throne, thinking herself to be a Queen of sorts. The decore of the castle is from the Victorian Age and sometimes even Akakakuhan herself dresses in such fashion.



Call Out Phrase: Rasshuauto Akakakuhan (Lash out bloody whip)

Shikai Apparel: The blade transforms into a whip that is separated into ten different shards that make up the blade. The shards themselves are held together by a string of Selkie's reiatsu that extends out from the guard of the blade to the very last shard. It can also revert back into a normal sword, while still in shikai, if Selkie needs to have it do that

Shikai Abilities: In this form, Selkie can use his whip however he pleases. All of the attacked are done mentally inside of his head (though the actions and movements of the shads can be read), unless he makes a physical motion with the whip to head in another direction. It can extend up to 30 meters in any direction. Meaning that it's full travel distance without having to coil back is thirty meters. The blade can also burrow underground and make it's way towards it's opponent by having Selkie direct it's motion.

Aside from that, the blade has one other ability. By having the reiatsu strand pour into the shards, Selkie can have his ten shards fly around him and attack his opponents. This is his preferred method of attacking in shikai, since the shards can move quicker than they would if they were attached to his blade, and are restricted by distance only by how far Selkie can see. However, as since this uses up reiatsu, and the shards themselves have a set amount stored up in them, this only lasts for a couple of minutes (3-5 posts). After the time is up, the shards automatically use up the rest of their reiatsu by attaching themselves back onto the guard of the blade, and a new reiatsu strand is formed.

Bankai

Call Out Phrase: Nyuuyoku oite chi, hone no Akakakuhan (bath in blood, bloody bone whip

Bankai Apparel: When going from shikai to bankai, Selkie stabs his zanpackto in his chest. When doing so, the blade infuses with his body, transforming all of the bones in his body to the whips of his shikai. He also gain’s some light armor, which is white (bone), around his body. There is a pentagram on his chest, the location of where he stabbed himself. This pentegram is the key for sealing his bankai, and only he can deactivate it (in case someone was able to get close to him and press that spot XD...can't make it too easy). The whips now look a bit different then they did in shikai. The shards themselves are sharper, and the sides are now jagged to cause more damage, as well as look a little more demonic and blood thirsty. When Selkie is in his bankai form, his eyes change from the normal blue, to a blood red. In this form, he appears to give off more of a demonic vibe than anything else. This is caused by his massive craving of blood, hence Akakakuhan (bloody whip).

Bankai Abilities: When in bankai form, Selkie is able to use all of the whips in his body as a weapon, or as a shield, whichever is necessary at the moment. The whips are released from his body at 8 different areas. These are both of his hands, legs, feet, as well as his chest and back. When the whips exits and enters his body, no blood is lost and no damage is done to Selkie. Once they exit the body, the whips act as if it was in it’s shikai form. They share the same traits as well. The ability to extend out 100 feet, the ability to lose the shards that are attached to the reiatsu strand, and the ability to barrow underground. The shards, whether on the reiatsu string or not, act to how Selkie thinks. If he wishes for them to spin on the strand, they will do it. If he wishes for them to fly around his head, they will do that. The danger of using his bones as whips is that if he, or someone else damages a whip, it will also damage the bone that the whip corresponds to once he exits bankai. The speed of the whips are as fast, if not faster than, a Cero




Background: In his previous life, Selkie was an average high schooler, attending the public high school. It was his sophomore year in high school, and he had just gotten out for April Vacataion. His life was basic. Go to school, go to his classes, go to work (if he was schedualed), get home, watch some tv, do his homework, relax, play video games, then go to bed. However, the normal life he had, was all about to change.

A few days later, his mother had brought him to the bank to start up his own bank account. After everything was set up, his mother went to go to the car to grab his paycheck when four men wearing black skii masks went into the bank and attempted a robbery. Selkie, who was in one of the rooms closest to the door, attempted to escape while the robbers were busy trying to get the tellers to fill their bags with money. One of them noticed that he was trying to escape and shot him in the arm. He desperately tried to find his mother, but with the bullet wound causing massive blood loss, all Selkie could do was wander down the sidewalks, trying to find some help.

It was then that Selkie felt something pierce his back. At that time, he thought that he had been shot again. However, it was a hollow that had killed him back then. The scent of his blood drew it towards him, and it was able to pierce it's back. When it was about to devour Selkie's soul, a shinigami had came and rescued him, and not a moment too soon. Selkie was sent to Soul Society that very day. The only thing that he didn't bring along with him, was the memory of his former family.

He was brought up instead, by a rukongai family in one of the middle districts. Not too long after, he had the idea of becoming a Shinigami just like the one that had saved him that fateful day. He enrolled into the academy where he spent the next four years of his afterlife training to become a shinigami. He graduated in the middle of his class, and was accepted into gotei 13. Over the years of his membership in the Gotei 13, Selkie haad climbed through the ranks and been accepted by his peers as a good leader. His hard work, good leadership, and quality skills have proven enough to the other captains and he was appointed the rank of 3rd squad captain, and has maintained that position for a ffew years now.

RP Sample:

(I sorta got used to the color coding system on my other bleach site...so that's how i'll post here...if that's fine since i saw no color coding system...red is actions, green thoughts, blue speach...when shikai is achieved...i go yellow for the avatar)

Some shuffling of feet could be heard throughout the barracks as the newest member to join the gotei 13 was trying to find his way around the halls. It seemed to him that no matter where he went and what turns he made, he would always arrive back at his same destination. He was getting really frustrated not being able to find his way around the place.

Seriously, can't they have like, a map or something to help me find my way around this place. It's really rediculous not being able to find anything. Ever since getting here, I haven't once seen the mess hall, nor the dojo. Hell, I haven't even found my captain's office. It would be nice to actually meet my commanding officer.

He continued on throughout the halls, now looking for other shinigami wandering about (however, not wandering aimlessly like he was) to help point out all these essential locations. What a wonderful day. He said sarcastically under his breath as he continued on towards wherever his footsteps would take him.

alright...i just threw the bankai in there mostly because I already knew what I wanted for it...that's mostly it...i didn't expect to start out with it to begin with
