I dunno if this has been done before, but what the hell. :smile-big
Basically just create your own Zanpakutou. Describe the looks, and ability of the shikai/bankai of your Zanpakutou. Eh, its not very original, but I'll start of with my own.
Shikai
Name: Kurohiko
Length/looks: Kurohiko is a 3ft 9inch long blade. The back of the blade rises up in spikes, but the front stays the same.(think Zabimaru, but inverted and not segmented)
Skill: Kurohiko's basic skill is to let out a burst of spiritual energy from the back of the blade causing the speed and strenght of the swing to increase.
Kuuashou- Using Kurohiko's basic skill, the blade is swung, releasing a wave of compressed air that will slice through just about anything.
Jibakuha- Taking advantage of Kurohiko's increased speed/power, the blade is smashed into the ground. The force causes a stream of rocks to erupt from the ground and hit the target. This can only go in one direction.
Release phrase: Amata ni kirisake, Kurohiko.
Bankai-haven't come up with one.

Okay... I basically just ripped of the ultimate sword from my kick-ass story, and then just used some of the abilities the last wielder has. Okay... so I made everything in English... My Japanese sucks...
Name: Exal Grando (Exal for short)
Length/Looks: A 5ft long broadsword, 1,5 times as broad as a normal one, weighs 24 pounds (is wielded with 1 hand).
Skills:
1. The sword enhances the spiritual power of the user (okay... normally it was magic)
2. Wind Blade: With a little bit of concentration it can shoot fast, near invisible and sharp blades of wind that cut through nearly anything. It can be done continuously, and takes little to no power to use. Easy, fast & deadly.
3. Flashburner: Shoots the user forward at about 5 times the speed of sound. Drains quite a bit of stamina, and does a lot of pain to the user. But the speed at which he comes, together with the blade, often ensures an instant kill. Even if not, it can be done continuously against those that have enough skill to evade of few of those. Not even a strong barrier is able to defend against it.
Release phrase: Exal Grando, I ask thine power.
I dunno what the hell Bankai is...
*waits until someone else tells me*
Shikai number 1
Name: Hyena
Length/looks: basic sword looks like a throwing knife...
WHen released it changes into a big gun, shaped like a desert eagle with an ivory handle and a small ivory blade on top....
It comes down to the fact the small ivory blade can cut flesh quite well, but will never stop a strong attack from claws (hollow) or a big blade (shingami)..
Skills: a compensation for the fact it's a weak melee weapon, it can shoot out small spiritual bombs/bullets.. Like the sort Mayuri shot out of his hand.
How? the user sends in some spiritual force to Hyena, which then stabilizes it and shoots it out at great speed. The more spirit force is send into the blade, the bigger the projectiles (and their power), but the time between the shots also increases. Every bullet disolves after an amount of time, but this depends on the size of the buller.
Bulls'eye: when an enemy is cut by the blade on top, a small bulls'eye appears on the victim which attracts all bullets. However, there's a catch to it. A small bullet is light enough to manouvre and can even follow its target behind corners, however because it's small it also does little damage and disolves quickly. A very big bullet however is too heavy to change direction during flight, but does a lot of damage when it hits. So the use must carefully choose the size of bullets he shoots out....especially since every bullet drains a bit of his power!!
Enchant bullet: The user can start saying a hadou, which he does not perform, but stores in a bullet. When the bullets is shot out afterwards, and hits its target, it releases the stored demon art inside...
Jackal: the user can create a second smaller gun, that looks like a white glock (without the blade) with an ivory handle.
This gun however does not have the main blade's specialty (bullseye and enchant bullet), but nevertheless can shoot a lot of bullets and increase overall gunpower of the user. He can shoot with the jackal while enchanting the Hyena however.
Release phrase: prey on the weak Hyena
Bankai for shikai number 1
Name: Eye of the Beholder
Length/looks: the environment is filled with numerous eyes in all sizes and shapes.
Skill: Each is connected to the main user, and thus giving him an enermous amount of information. Each eye has different specializations, some have infrared visions, others can see spiritual energy, others can see over great distances, X-ray, body heat, etc....
All seeing eye: All this info adds up to the main eye, and gives the main user a sort of all seeing eye. He can see true any illusion, trick, etc. Because the enemy is surrounded by eyes which see everything. It also gives the main user a form of inhuman prediction power. Because he can see everything happen in slow-motion, and knows every move the enemy is about to make.
Harvester: Every single eye simply regenerates when its slashed by the enemy. This is because they consist of spiritual energy, connected to the main Eye. If the main Eye is harmed however, all the floating eyes take damage and dissapear until the main Eye regenerates. But because they are connected, they form a special invisible line among each other. Which acts like a catalyst to all the demon arts the main user makes. With this the main user can send lightning bolts true the eyes onto the enemy, or make the eyes themselves explode.
Release phrase: Beholder, gaze upon them!!
(note: first I wanted to let the main Eye be capable of hypnosis, or mind control...or just capture the opponent in dread/awe. But I think this bankai is powerfull enough already)
-> the monster looks like the beholder in the BG games (and likewise games) (http://users.pandora.be/KepaJ/Avatars/beholder.jpg)
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
shikai number 2
Name: Sakuya
Length/looks: Sakuya is just a very long and very thin katana. It has a very noble look to it and 2 abnormalities:
1. Big black dust particles are constantly falling from the blade
2. It's pitchblack...as if it's absorbing the light around it...
Skill: Many mysteries lay in this sword. Since it's a very fragile sword, it might break if used to slash or cut. However it's tip is very sharp, and it can easily pierce the hardest materials.
Featherdust: There are some secrets behind the dust, it bassically absorbs everything, both light as soul spirit. The user can shake the sword to release a large amount of dust.
1. If the dust falls on the enemy(both hollow and shingami), it starts to drain its soul spirit. The opponent immediatly notices however, since the dust numbs the skin a bit, and can wash off the dust particles with ease.
2.the user can slash the sword in the air, creating a shield with the dust. Now the dust itself is not a real shield, because it can't even block the weakest attack. However, it absorbs all the light trying to pass trough. So if the users makes such a shield in front of him, he bassically disappears. Same goes for when he covers himself with dust, however due to quick movement the dust might fall off.
This also leads to one thing -> the longer the battle, the more dust ends up in the air untill it forms an impossible to see through black cloud.
3. if the opponent is cut/pierced by the blade (flesh is weak enough to be cut), some dust falls into the wound and stops the wound from healing or closing up. If the enemy does not quickly wash his wounds, they might get infected. Not to mention the fact the dust is absorbing his soul energy.
4.the blade absorbs light, and therefore it's form is a bit unclear to see (especially with the featherdust coming from it). This makes the blade look as if it's quite wider/thicker, even though it's so fragile. However if an opponent is pierced, he'll quickly notice how thin the blad really is, and realize its main weakness. This puts more pressure on the user, whether to pierce an opponent and give away Sakuya's weakness, or confuse the opponent more and wait untill you can give a lethal blow.
Release phrase: Bury them in darkness, Sakuya
Bankai for shikai number 2
Name: Titan's fist
Length/looks: the blade completely changes its shape : from thin and long, it becomes very thick, wide and short. And a second identical blade forms on the other side of the hilt.
Now it looks more like a savage black shield then a noble blade.
The shield is connected to a lot of chains, and at the end of each chain is a thing ressembling deformedl cannon ball.
Skill: the balls start to quickly swing around the user, releasing enormous amounts of dust. This dust however is smaller and more aggresive. Because the balls are misshaped, they produce a hig pitching sound while spinning.
This all leads to 2 powers
Black cloud:the landscape is filled with the dust released, and everything caught inside is slowly being sucked dry. The dust particles this time are smaller then with the intitial blade, and can also be inhaled. Leading to small caughing or even suffication...if a person stays in too long. The main user is protected because he produces enough wind the with spinning balls to drive away his own dust, while secretly hiding inside the cloud he himself created.
Squeak: The sound created by the balls deforms all other sounds in the area. The enemies cannot make a sound or hear any sounds made by other things/persons. The main drawback is that it has the same effect on the main user and its friend/allies. Fragile opponents can also quickly get irritated or lose their concentration to this sound. But with no sound, no opponent can call for help, chant demon arts, or rely on his hearing in battle.
Black lightning:The balls are spinning fast enough to create electricity. However, normally it's absorbed by the shield and the released dust. But when the balls change shape (open up) they start spinning so fast black electricity is formed, which cannot be absorbed anymore. When opponents get too close, they could already be bashed by the spinning balls and shield, but in this case they'll also get zapped by the lightning. The user could also shoot out the lighting, but its very hard to aim with spinning balls, and predict where the lightning will go. So shooting in 1 direction is like aiming blindly, however once enough lightning has been stored he can perform a bigger release, shooting lightning in all directions.
Release phrase: Crush the lesser

Shikai
Name: The Fang
Looks: It is a quite long (110cm) thin sabre with metal whiter than ordinary steel. The handguard is large and made from whitened bone decorated with skulls and other patternns carved in the bone.
Abilities: The acts like it was immaterial to other soul cutters but acts like a normal cutter to all other objects. This means that the user can't block enemy cutters and the enemies can't block this cutter.
Materialize: If the Fang is materialized it goes back to it's original shape, and if it is inside another soul cutter while this is done the opponents cutter will shatter. This ability is hard to oull off but effective against some large bankai.
Release: "Immaterialize, Fang"
Bankai
Name: Ivory magic
Looks: The cutter turns into a blunt bone sabre that is heavily decorated.
Ability: The weilder gaians the same invulnerability to cutters as the sabre, but the sabre is now blunt so the attack power of it has decreased. This is compensated by the the cutter acts like a wand and amplifies the demon arts. The weilder is turned from an offesive fighter to a mage.

shikai:gyoukou(light of dawn)
to release it:kagayakuse gyoukou(i think it means to brighten up gyoukou)
this ability is puts a aura of light shaped like a blade around my sword and is able to shoot out light beams at will.
bankai:hikari gokusha(light prison)
think of tousens bankai but opposite. when i release it by saying bankai "gyoukou hikari gokusha" my swords aura of light shoots up in the air and blinds everything around it even if the person has there eyes closed.(that is how bright the aura becomes) once they are i blinded i shunpo to them and give the finishing blow.

Shikai
Name: Akumu (Nightmare)
Phrase to release Shikai: Awaken, Akumu.
Looks: A dark black swords with a shade of red in it. There is a eye engraved on the lower part of the blade wich glows when spirit power is fed into the sword. It's roughly 3 Shaku long (the measuring-method you use with swords, find out the lenght in '/", cm/dm yourself. :P), and has a slight curvature, but it's almost completely straight. The blade is also slightly jig-sawed.
Abilities: Akumu has two abilities:
Mugen(Infinite): The user makes a quick dash towards his enemy and releases a sort of squall of spiritual energy wich makes the opponent see an illusion as if he's falling for all eternity, but it's infact a few seconds. Also, while in this squall of spiritual power, the spritual power takes the form of small blades, and cuts the opponent.
Karame(Bind/Hold): A technique that completely paralyses the opponent by unleashing a very powerful burst of spiritual energy trough the blade. This technique however is not very effective agains people with very high spiritual power, but if you don't have a high spiritual pressure, you're done for. This technique gives you the freedom to do whatever you want while the opponent is paralyzed. The duration of the paralyze may vary. but it's usually around 30seconds~
Bankai
Name: Kyogan (Penetrating Eye)
Phrase to release Bankai: See all, Kyogan.
Looks: Pretty much the same as the Akumu looks. The eye on the sword however, opens up, and releases several ammounts more of spiritual power, making the Mugen and Karame abilities alot more powerful.
The Bankai also has a sort of final move, and to 'intiate' that move you say:
"Harai, Mugenjin." (Basically means: "Erase/purify, Infinite Mind.")
This ability, as it's name states, makes the enemy totally loose control of themselves. It blurs vision, hearing, everything. You are almost uncapable of defending against this technique.
However, this technique also affects the user of the sword. Each time this 'ultimate bankai' is used, the user looses a piece of his sanity, wich in the end, will drive the user completely mad. The sword itself also has one weakness, if someone thrusts their zanpaktou into the eye on the blade, the sword will shatter, wich also makes the user loose a piece of his sanity.
__________________________________________________ _
That would be my soulcutter. It might be a bit 'overpowered', but I've always liked people who had psychic abilities in their weapons, so I figured I'd do something similar.

yum.
hrm, i want my zanpakutou to be a smaller version of the dual sided beam sword that the Gouf Ignited have in GSD in its initial release, with beam boomerangs, and as for my bankai i want a custom golden Hyaku Shiki! Take that Komamura!
Yeah, i know i'm an unoriginal gundam fanboy. :)
so i guess i'll call the sword "Upgraded GINN Type Excalibur"

Name Zanpaktou: Kage (Shadow)
Shikai: Kage Douwotsukeru (Shadow Body Armor)
Release Phrase: Kage Gattai !!! (Shadow Unite !!!)
The Zanpaktou shatters, and the user and sword become one. The Zanpaktou becomes the armor of the user. It gives him increased strength and speed. And also increases the five senses.
The armor itself is Hyper-Spiritalic, this means that it consumes the spiritual power of the user. With that it increases the users atributes.(Speed, Strength and etc)
The armor has four blades, two at each side of the arms. The blades are extremely sharp, and thus can cut through anything. It doesn't have extra powers.
Strength: The user aquires In-human strength.
Speed: The user can move nearly at the speed of sound, but it has a weakness. If it reaches speed of sound it cannot stop easily and and one cannot change its direction easily.
The five senses get increased to a point were it is lethal to the user, so one has to be carefull, how to increase and decrease them.
Ban Kai:
Still To Come...
your Zanpaktou sounds more like a bankai DarkGuyver....just letting you know :/
WHy not just make the dark blade, and let it's power be 1. creation of shadow shields (like what orihime does) and 2. give its user night-sight...atleast that would explain the name Kage =_=

04-25-2005, 04:22 PM
warefumetsu: Well thanks. I guess it's as Kepa said, we where the ones who put down most time in writing it all. :P
DarkGuyver: As you described your Zanpaktou, I just kept looking at your avatar. :P
And as Kepa now said: It should be a soulcutter. A sword. It can take on any shape, but a sword should be the 'base' of it. Also, just as a slight suggestion to the people writing: Try to make the abilities names and stuff fit with your description and the name of the sword.

This is spoiler if you're a anime only person or you're behind in the manga. A bankai is the second transformation of a zanpakutou. Kurotsuchi's was the big ugly face that spewed poison gas. Byakuya's is a bunch of huge swords that do Senbonsakura's dissapear-slice and dice thing.

Shikai
Name: Ryujin
Length/looks: A 6' long nodachi with hilt 5" long. An image of a dragon is engraven crawling up each side of the blade, and the hilt guard is in the image of a curled up water serpent.
Skill: Tsunami: The sword wielder drives the sword into the floor, casuing a sheer wave of water rises fom nowhere in front of the blade wielder, protecting him both from physical and spiritual attacks for a short period of time.
Suihou: A bubble of water envelops the opponent, preenting him from moving or doing any kind of action. However, If he is attacked in this bubble, it will burst, freeing him completly.
Release phrase: Drown them,Ryujin !
BankaiAonamiryujin
Name:
Length/looks: Hilt becomes a sea-blue coloured dragon of the same length which wraps around wielders arm with neck streching out to be gripped as the hilt would. A straight, crimson blade 5' long protudes from the mouth.
Skill:
kôzui (The flood): The area surrounding the battlefield floods with water, making a square field of water 30 metres high. In this field, all opponents movement is greatly slowed and their strength weakened, whilst the weilder of the sword can still move at full speed and strength.
Suiken (Water blade):Only in the flood field can this ability be used. The wielder of the blade can swing it, creating a fast moving wave of water that cuts through anything in its way.
Release phrase: "Ban Kai!" (How original...:eyeroll)

If someone has better name translations, please tell me.
This is an idea in progress off the top of my head.
Name: Arashi wo Motarasu Mono 嵐を齎す者 - "Storm Bringer" - female
Normal Form: Twin Black Blades with no guard -->http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/website/UC1184L.jpg (minus scabbard)
Release Phrase: "Shatter Arashi wo Motarasu Mono"
Initial Release(I would like to get away from the swords and be a little different): Each blade shatters, reforming into gauntlets on each hand and boots on each foot. Each gauntlet is a deep black metal reaching up to the elbows, as they are made from the same material as all Zanpakutou they very dense in spirit energy making them good for attacking and defending. An embossed swastika design exists on the backs of each hand and breaks out into an elaborate pattern. Three spikes protrude from the knuckles.
Each boot reaches almost knee height with pointed toes and spiked heels. No design exists on the boots though they are made form the same spiritually dense material as the gauntlets.
Due to being made from the same material as all Zanpakutou, the gauntlets are capable of catching other Zanpakutou in its grip without being pierced (it would take someone of unreal power to pierce the material just like it would take someone of unreal power to pierce a Zanpakutou).
Abilities: this Zanpakutou has only one real ability, that is the control of its flowing energy, but it allows the user to be quite versatile. The concentration of spirit energy in the arms in legs can be used to grant the user extraordinary speed and increased strength levels.
This Storm based Zanpakutou is constantly generating lightning from the users spirit energy and movements (the more he moves the more power is generated, but its constantly being burned off too), this energy can slice most hollows in half with little or no effort.
Certain movements allow for interesting new moves. A fighting style exists for this Zanpakutou that allows the user to almost totally cover themselves in the excess eelectricity flowing from the ganuntlets and boots. By spinning at great speeds the user is able to send energy in most directions.
Direct palm thrusts are able to send blasts or wind or energy straight towards an opponent capable of stunning them it hit directly. Certain movements (like slamming both gauntlets together) are capable of creating very small sonic booms that can be damaging to an opponent at point blank (not great a distances).
Ban Kai - 'Arashi wo Motarasu Mono no Gekido' 嵐を齎す者の激怒 - (Storm Bringer's Fury): the Gauntlets and boots increase in size covering the users entire body (except for the center of the chest, back and the entire head), this returns the users speed to normal, but further increases their strength.
The excess spirit energy eminating from the armor becomes focused engulfing the user and forming a winged dragon of pure electrical energy. The armor formed from the Zanpakutou allows the user to ride and control this beast. The energy dragon can be controlled as an extra limb of the users body and stretch to an indeterminable length, but the longer the dragon the greater the drain on spiritual energy.
Arashi Kyaria's in her dragon form can move at blinding speeds tearing through main and peripheral targets, most weaker opponents don't even have time to comprehend whats going on, though moving at these speeds is can be draining on the Shinigami's spiritual energy, so this straight speed thrust is usually not used unless the user is guaranteed a hit.
In this form Arashi Kyaria's offensive capabilities are capable of wiping out rows of hollows in a single movement.
Arashi no Zettai Bougyou. 嵐の絶対坊御 - (Absolute Defense of the Storm) - Arashi Kyaria's secondary Ban Kai form. The dragon formed by the initial Ban Kai wraps around the user who is now covered fully in armor and spiritons. Four spirit wings emerge from the armors back allowing the user to become air born at will. All excess energy becomes somewhat focused, revolving around the user providing a very thin aura which slows anything entering it (allowing for added defense against projectiles).
Arashi Kyaria's wings are able to deflect attacks coming at her, any attacks piercing this energy shield must then pierce the energy surrounding the armor then the armor itself to damage the user. This is not impossible, but extremely difficult.
The drawback to this form is that it is almost totally defensive, the user is almost totally protected from attacks, but is almost totally incapable of any offensive moves. The users speed is reduced to less than half of the normal unreleased stage(do to the aura), but strength is slightly augmented.
This phase is normally used when the user needs to protect someone else from attack.
Ban Kai - Final Form (Three Deaths of the Storm) [Need a translation]
Arashi Kyaria's supreme and final form.
The armor surrounding the user (minus the gauntlets and boots) and the electric dragon dissolve into a thick mist engulfing the area around the user. The mist slowly circles inwards forming a tornado (in appearance only, its actually a very soft wind) around the user.
Three cloaked ethereal beings form from the mist, each different. Lets face it, storms can be among the most destructive and deadly forces in nature, so I created three figures representing the most deadly aspects of a storm.
Raiden[thunder, lightning] - the first figure formed, taking a place at the right of the user. Raiden is wearing a thick robe, carrying a staff with a drum hooked around his waist.
Fujin[wind] - the second figure formed to the left of the user. A muscular figure wearing an open vest and hood. Four bags are constantly on his back.
Taki-Tsu-Hiko[rain] - the third figure formed behind the user, a plainly cloaked figure wielding no visible weapons.
After these figures form, a weapon is formed in the users hand. A long black smooth scythe, after the weapon is formed the users pupils extend making their entire eyes dark black.
Every instant these figures are around, they suck life force from the user, thus using this technique too long would result in death. The limit is believed to be just under a half hour before the user is too far gone to survive (this has obviously never been fully tested).
The user in most cases uses all three figures simultaneously to finish the opponent as soon as possible, but in some cases the user may only use one or two to conserve power.
Everytime the users scythe makes contact with an enemies body (not Zanpakutou) is siphons life force from them into the user, if they are killed with this weapon their entire life force will be siphoned the user. It is because of this that this Ban Kai is only shown to people the user is determined to kill at all costs, it has only been used twice.
The scythe is able to break into three parts and extend (much like Renji's sword), the limit of its range is around 20 yards.
The three figures each have different abilities they use, the stronger the moves they use the faster they drain the user.
Raiden - Raiden is able to send energy bolts at opponents, or sonic booms (from thunderwaves by beating the drums). Raiden is the most draining figure so ir is the least used.
Fujin - the four bags on Fujin's back represent the Four winds, by opening them it is able to control powerful gusts of wind, if all four bags are opened the resulting wind is able to cut through objects like a knife.
Fuujin most often uses its fists to fight (to conserve energy) and this is almost always enough due to its physical power.
Taki-Tsu-Hiko - Taki-Tsu-Hiko is able to control water at will, be it in the air or in the surrounding environment. The greater the amount of water controlled the faster the user is drained.
This figure has been known to form weaponry such as needles from water and impale targets onto them.
---------------
These figures are a work in progress, comments are welcome.

Keep to the thread, please. And kindergarten stuff - take it outside. Once more: Keep to the thread.
Shouldn't be too hard to come up with something that is a bit creative. Sure, use poison gas and stuff, but develop your thoughts some more before posting. A few lines about how you 'release' your sword with the words <fart, (insert name)> isn't very serious.
Take your time, and post again. It's fun to read what other people had made up. I don't just want to look at my own stuff.
Take Tsukiyomi's post for example, that's what you want to see.

Yes, I totally ripped this off of One Piece but I DON'T CARE!!!
Shikai- My sword (haven't come up with a good name yet) splits up into three swords, each one commanding a different effect. One explodes on contact, the other freezes on contact, and the third electrocutes them. Just like Zolo/Zoro, I hold one of the swords in my mouff.
Bankai-(Coming soon) ((Actually, I just kind of ran out of creativity right there.))

I really like your ideas, it's really original to see the initial release being armour rather than a type of bladed weapon. I do have one question though, how will you fight in the armour? A type of martial arts, or use only of your spinning spirit attack?
Oh and anything that has to do with dragons is great in my book so :thumbs to your Ban Kai.
As for translations, I had a go... But I know very little japanese and so pulled words out of a dictionary to put them together, so they probably are very innacurate.
"Storm Bringer": Arashi Kyaria
"Raiden's Fury": Raiden no kyouran

The initial release is simply gauntlets and boots constantly eminating energy, so when the user moves it would look as if lightning is constantly coming off the user. They would use a special hand-fighting style developed specifically for this Zanpakutou.
Thanks for the japanese names, I'll use those unless someone gives me a better translation.

Name: Reaper
Length/looks: A oversized schtye

In its sealed state it would look like normal katana, released it would turn into a small fan with small steel blades on arc coated with some sort of poison. At ban-kai it's shape would turn into a long bow. For skill it would only know one, same at all stages. It could inject thoughts into other people's heads :)
As for name, someone more inventive can make up one...

Shikai
Name: Zelistor
Length/looks: A Huge Silver Mace
Skill: Expand = Grows infinitely large as much as the user can control great at smashing and pulverizing. Can destroy most objects.
Protrude = The spikes grow and retract randomly Making for a dangerous Attack
http://www.weaponmasters.com/?ID=WEAPONS&ITEM=MR1-739
Release phrase: Destroy them Zelistor!
BanKai
Looks: The Mace Becomes a Hammer Turns Gold, Golden Armor embraces the user
Skill: The Bankai allows the user to grow and shrink at will while still utilizing the abilities of the Shikai. The Armor Protects from effects of other Zanpatous as long as the user can maintain Bankai. The only weak spot is the Head of the user. Also speed is dramactially decreased.
Release phrase: EMBRACE ME , ZELISTOR!
Ultimate Bankai - User returns to Normal and so does the Bankai except the mace is gold For 10 Mins the Bankai User is Invulnerable and his Strength Immeasurable , Unable to be Moved from the Earth For this Duration. After the Duration The user is left completely armorless and without spirit power for however long it takes for them to recover. Also speed during ultimate Bankai is still decreased as with the Regular Bankai.

Name: Void [need jap translation]
Normal Form: A small jet black dagger, measuring 1 foot in length, sheath is made to sit around the right arm.
Release Phrase: "Swallow them [Void]"
Initial Release - Shikai: The blade floats of about 5 feet of the ground and grows thinner, longer and wider forming a flat circle at the end of the hilt with a 1 foot radius, if you look into the circle it seems that there is no surface and that there is an enourmus depth within the blade.
The blade has become a hole into a world within the blade and can no longer be moved around by the weilder nor by the enemy, anything that touches the black circle will be sucked into the blade through the little hole, inside the blade is a resident demi world.
(as such not many would come into the the demi world alive because they would be crushed while being sucked into the world, greatest weakness is that you have to fight without the soul cutter after using shikai, so martial arts or binding demon arts should be a great way to force people into the hole)
Second release phrase: "Swallow the world, [Void]" (again need jap translation)
Second release - Ban Kai: The handle is released from the little circle and the black circle begins growing untill it is about 200 feet wide and has an enourmous gravitational pull, swallowing everything material in the vicinity, only the handle and wielder will not be affected so the owners gotta hold on tight, and should stop the ban kai the entire world is swallowed into the infinite space within.

Sword name: Joukaiken (Heavenly Blade)
Description: A zanpakutou of the rare holy element, used primarily for slaying Hollows. Said to be one of three swords of the holy element.
Initial Release Phrase: Purify, Joukaiken!
Initial Release: Sword become a 3 foot hilt with a 2 foot blade. Basic attack is Tenhi (heavenly light), which, from the tip of the blade, creates a light from the purest regions of Soul Society. It was designed to instantly kills weaker Hollows, but against stronger Hollows and other Shinigami, it causes instant temporary blindness, which is cannot be blocked by closing the eyelids or turning away. However, as the light blast is essentially a beam which needs to be aimed, it can be dodged, and the user must look away from the attack the instant it is used or he will be blinded himself.
Bankai name: Tentoukeibatsu (Heaven's Judgement)
Bankai release phrase: Judge the sinners, Tentoukeibatsu!
Tentoukeibatsu is the bankai release of Joukaiken, and it a double-edged sword. It's attack is Buraindo no bachiatari (Blinding of the Damned). The blade of the sword disappears for an instant, and causes an massive blinding flash throuhout the entire fighting area. It will instantly kill most breed of Hollows, and against the strongest of the Hollows and against Shinigami, the rest of the attack is as follows. Upon the release of the flash, the blade will return to Joudaiken's form, but at the level of Tentoukeibatsu, but without the Tenhi. Anyone, and that means, anyone, who looks at the flash will be blinded for a 5 hour period. The only way to defend against it is to hide behind materials of the earth (i.e., concrete, rock, dirt, wood, not metal). And even then, they will be blinded for a 3 minute period. However...using this technique will blind the user for 5 minutes, without exception. If the attack fails and the opponent finds a way to block it, the user is surely doomed to his own Judgement.
I apologize for the butchering of the Japanese language that probably occured in this post, but I put them together the best I knew how (my Japanese teacher would probably kill me, lol).
eh lol...can you imagine I was afraid my sword would be overpowered when I wrote it? if I compare it to the rest here it's not even mediocre

I agree with that it doesn't really matter if it's overpowered but it's better if it's in line with what we ahve seen from cutters in Bleach. That makes it seem more realisitc to this universe, but you shouldn't let this restrict you too much.

Name: Akaha (Blood Leaf)
Description: A standard katana with a mid-curve. The end of the hilt has a large curved piece of metal that allows the sword to be placed on a bicep for maximum thrust.
Release Phrase: Bleed Akaha
Initial Release: Uses the blood of the user to enhance blade charachteristics. Red blood cells adds iron to the actual blade, white blood cells constantly hammer the steel to create the keenest of edges and platelets increase tensile strength of the blade.
Bankai: Akakiri Again uses the user's blood, but this time dispenses it as a fine mist. Can be used both to attack an opponent (attacks skin or insides if breathed mwahhaha) or for defense (mist increases effort for the opponent to do the most simplest of moving while also preventing attacks from the opponent from hitting the user).

Hmmm... I actually created a shinigami character for a D&D type game I'm playing (yes, yes, I'm big geek :amuse ) so here it is...
Name: Charlene
Normal Form: A putter, a putter that hits very hard.
Shikai (tee off, Charlene!): Charlene turns into a driver, not that different, just more powerful, able to bash through more powerful objects, possibly other zanpakutou in their unreleased form(although that would be very difficult)
Bankai (handicap of the infinite): Charlene itself doesn't change, but it creates a draining aura around it. Any enemies within this aura will tire very quickly, especially if they are putting spirit power in their own zanpakutous.
Special ability - Driving range:
Using spirit energy, a golf-ball sized energy ball can be formed from the end of Charlene and launched. In shikai, this would become more powerful and have greater range. In bankai, a shower of energy golf balls could rain down around the user, but this would pretty much drain the user of his energy, so he'd have to be damn sure that ended the fight.

Shikai
Name: Ikazuchi Houou (Thunder Phoenix)
Release Phrase: Flash, Ikazuchi Houou
Looks: The hilt extends to about 2 1/2 Shaku in length, and the hilt itself is black, while the cord wrapping around it is yellow. It has a blade at each end of the hilt, and each blade is about 1 1/2 Shaku in length. The blades are shaped like a bird’s extended wing, and one blade faces forward while the other faces backward. The blades blend from white into yellow, with the white starting on the curved edge blending into a bright yellow on the jagged edge. And electricity crackles around the blades.
Abilities: Spinning Ikazuchi Houou, like a windmill, generates an electrical shield which can deflect all, but the most powerful of energy attacks. Also, due to it being of the thunder element (lightning, electric, whatever element you want to call it), it gives the user an inherent and high level of Shyunpo ability. Along with the obvious that any slash can electrocute.
Bankai
Name: Tenrai Ikazuchi Houou (Divine Thunder Pheonix)
Release Phrase: Eclipse this existence, Tenrai Ikazuchi Houou
Looks: The sky is blanketed with pitch black clouds. Huge, golden, extended bird wings protrude from the clouds pointing vertically down providing the only light, but there is plenty of light from this to seem like it’s a bright, clear day. They don’t reach anywhere near the ground however, and there is a constant rain of small feathers floating down to the ground from the clouds, which look like little balls of light. Now take the Shikai form of Ikazuchi Houou, take a second one and place them on top of each other in a cross shape, so it is like an X with blades at each tip. This floats directly behind the user during Bankai and electricity bounces from tip to tip, so it looks kind of like a halo behind the person. And the user doesn’t appear to hold any weapons.
Abilities: The wings in the clouds rain down bolts of lightning all over the battlefield, and any feather(s) explode with tremendous force at the will of the user, as well as being able to warp the feathers anywhere around the battlefield at will as if the feathers themselves were using Shyunpo.
The form of Ikazuchi Houou floating behind the user is used for defensive purposes creating a larger stronger shield that automatically guards in a spherical radius. It can also split into two Shikai form Ikazuchi Houou’s to create two weaker shields to protect from multiple attacks.
Shyunpo ability is increased exponentially; the user could strike down hundreds of foes before he even appeared to have moved. And lastly, the user can create two swords of pure electricity to use which take the shape of giant feathers.
The Japanese probably isn't right, if anyone knows how those names should be, I'd appreciate it. And the Bankai is pretty damn powerful, but I didn't really care.
Final Ultima
04-30-2005, 08:15 AM
Alright then, I guess I'll post mine from the Bleach RP I started for a while at Naruto & Bleach Mania Forums.
Character: Shirogami Saishuu
Soul Type: Shinigami
Rank: Ichibantai Taichou, Soutaichou
Kidou Learned:
All Hadou (100%) (Without Chant)
All Bakudou (100%) (Without Chant)
Unique Kidou:
Hijutsu: Kage Eikoudan (Secret Technique: Shadow Flare)
This move is Saishuu's most commonly used Hadou, and was originally created to act as a very distinct signal flare, but was later discovered to be a very effective Hadou. This move involves reiatsu being gathered at Saishuu's left hand and fired out as a powerful black bolt. This move is also commonly used to propel Saishuu at great speeds. The most unusual quality of the Eikoudan is the ability to relocate it's source point provided the new source point is solid.
Hijutsu: Shishunsatsu (Secret Technique: Four Instant Death)
Within the blink of an eye, Saishuu slashes horizontally across the side of the opponent, creating four bright, flashes of light as he does so. Due to the flashes, it is impossible to tell at that point if the technique is a success or not. Saishuu sheathes Hayaichiame and counts to four. With each number, Saishuu's opponent suffers major damage.
"Ichi" - A delayed slash, blood spurts out from the opponent's right shoulder.
"Ni" - Another delayed slash, blood spurts out from the opponent's right knee.
"San" - Another delayed slash, blood spurts out from the opponent's left rib.
"Shi" - Saishuu's reiatsu crushes the opponent, then the slash splits them in two.
Shikai: Hayaichiame (Quick Blood Rain)
Release Phrase: "Split the sky, Hayaichiame!"
Appearance: http://www.weaponmasters.com/images...M/WM-3095L1.jpg (http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM/WM-3095L1.jpg)
Abilities:
Increase in speed and strength.
Able to create Zanzou (after-images) by moving with great speed.
Able to transfer consciousness to any of the Zanzou.
Skills:
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Satsugiri (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Death Slash)
Saishuu creates two Zanzou that prepare to charge at the opponent and slash at them horizontally. If Saishuu chooses to, he can decide to send his consciousness to either of these Zanzou. If not, he repeats the process but at a closer distance and with a diagonal slash instead of a horizonal one. If he chooses not to send his consciousness to either of these, the original Saishuu appears and performs Hijutsu: Shishunsatsu.
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Tendoudan (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Celestial Missile)
Saishuu throws the opponent in the air, then fires his unique Hadou, Hijutsu: Kage Eikoudan at them. As they are sent high into the air, Saishuu creates a Zanzou above them, and transfers his consciousness to it. The body that threw the opponent originally then fades away. Saishuu, now above the opponent, then kicks the opponent in the back with great force, sending them down to the ground.
Bankai: Hayaichiame Zansatsu (Quick Blood Rain Massacre)
Appearance: http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM2005/WM-5000L5.jpg (http://%3c/b%3Ehttp://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM2005/WM-5000L5.jpg)
User Appearance Changes: Saishuu is now dressed in his Ultima Saishuu attire.
(Anyone who's been in an RP with me before should be familiar with what Ultima Saishuu looks like. For those that don't know, he wears a red cap backwards, a red t-shirt with three slash marks across it, a black leather jacket with ripped sleeves on top of that, a white trenchcoat on top of that, denim blue jeans, white trainers and brown fingerless gloves.)
Abilities:
Greater increase in strength and speed.
Able to spawn Zanzou from his own body without moving.
Able to give all Zanzou physical form without transfering his consciousness.
Able to give his original body ethereal form without transfering his consciousness.
Skills:
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Zansatsugiri (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Massacre Slash)
Saishuu performs the first stage to Satsugiri, but instead of creating an extra two Zanzou, the original Saishuu becomes ethereal and stands within the body of his opponent. Saishuu then creates six Zanzou that pull their upper half slightly from the original body whilst still sharing the same lower half of the original body. All six Zanzou become real at the point they slash the opponent, then as the six Zanzou become ethereal again and disappear, the original becomes physical again, ripping the opponent's body apart.
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Chou Tendoudan (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Super Celestial Missile)
Saishuu throws the opponent into the air and fires a Kage Eikoudan at them like the first stage of Tendoudan. However, instead of creating one Zanzou, Saishuu creates six, all of which having a physical body. The original Saishuu fades away. As the central Zanzou, now Saishuu's main body, throws his Hayaichiame Zansatsu at the opponent, the other five descend with their blades. The central blade hits the opponent in the back, then as the other five Zanzou stab down into the opponent's limbs and head, Saishuu kicks down into the hilt of the central sword, forcing it further into the back of the opponent. The opponent plummets to the ground, and the five Zanzou fade along with their swords, leaving Saishuu's main body stood on Hayaichiame Zansatsu's hilt.

Thats a pretty sweet sword. I updated mine, I want to add more interesting abilities, but I don't want the sword to have too much.
Alright then, I guess I'll post mine from the Bleach RP I started for a while at Naruto & Bleach Mania Forums.
Are those rpgs any good? In my experience most text rpgs get way out of hand and overpowered without really good moderation.
Final Ultima
04-30-2005, 08:52 PM
The Bleach RP didn't really reach the extent that any of the particularly powerful Shinigami needed to use their full power (it was mostly situated around the training of newer Shinigami)...hell, the only time my character even needed to use Shikai was when a Menos showed up, so the problem of having overpowered characters wasn't really an issue.
With other text RP's I've participated in though, it has been quite the important issue. I remember back at the Naruto RP I used to admin at, it was a constant battle between me and one of the other admins. Each of us regularly obtained insane powerups just to keep up with each other, until the point where no other characters could even so much as touch them.
However, moderation wasn't really the problem, it was that we were admins and could therefore get away with it. In fact, since I left, I noticed that the system they've employed there now is a whole lot more balanced. It was very well moderated.
Hmm, now that you mention it though, it would be interesting to start up a Bleach RP. I could get the people from the Zangetsu FC REDUX at Naruto & Bleach Mania Forums to join, and then we'd have a bunch of members already. You provide the website, and I'll provide the members (along with a kickass Ichibantai Taichou >_>).

Wait, so you guys were able to take out a Menos with just the initial release?
Anyway, I think an RPG here would be a great idea, any thoughts on the Zanpakutou I created Final?
Final Ultima
04-30-2005, 09:57 PM
It wasn't Menos Grande, therefore it was easier to kill. I figured that seeing as Ichigo was able to force Menos Grande to retreat using just his huge reiki and basic Zanpakutou, then a Taichou killing a much smaller Menos using a powerful Kidou, a Shikai Zanpakutou and an Ougi wasn't too much to ask.
But yeah, I've got quite a few good ideas in my head about the possibility of an independant Bleach RP. You could have The Physical World and Soul Society, each with appropriate places in which to chat with others, learn important skills, train to improve your skills, spar with others, or just ask for help or advice. People can choose where they want to stay provided it doesn't go against who they are (wouldn't have a bunch of Quincy hanging around Tororei, or having Taichou go to Hiirasani or Mashiba Middle School, for instance), and can in turn decide who they want to converse or train with by going to the appropriate sub-section.
Your Zanpakutou is very cool, by the way. Gauntlets are a nice touch considering that most people, like myself, would just go for different kinds of bladed weaponry. It's unique, and that counts for a lot nowadays. (Although, I notice that people are still calling their Bankai something completely different from their Shikai. Isn't the name of the Bankai supposed to contain the name of the Shikai, but just with an extra word before or after?)

Since I'm not familiar with most of the sword names in Bleach (save ones like Zengetsu[ichigo], Benihime[urahara] and Zabimaru[renji]) I never noticed that about the Ban Kai's.
Are you able to translate names to japanese because I still need someone to do mine.
"Storm Bringer" is my swords name, I need an accurate translation
"Storm Bringers Fury" would be the Ban Kai
and "Absolute Defense of the Storm" is the secondary Ban Kai ability.
If anyone is able to translate those I would really appreciate it.
Final Ultima
04-30-2005, 10:55 PM
In which case, your Shikai should be Arashi Kyaria and your Bankai should be Arashi Kyaria No Kyouran. The secondary Bankai ability would be Arashi No Zettai Bougyo.
Actually, I don't know Japanese, but I do know what Storm, Fury, and Absolute Defense are in Japanese (thanks to my experiences with anime, manga and games), plus I have some basic understanding of how the language works. >_>
I'm pretty confident that I'm right, anyway. The only thing I'm not too sure about is what Bringer is, but I'm taking Vodrake's word for it.

Tsukiyomi, just read the threads in the basics section. It explains everything. You probably wanna know tho, that as a newcomer you RP as a human. Once you reach lvl 30, you can die and either a captain or vice will come and bring you to SS. Sooo, if you want to start out as a Shinigami, then you probably shouldn't join since its gonna be awhile before you become one.
Tsukiyomi
05-01-2005, 08:47 PM
I don't get what the point of RPing as a human is, humans don't have any powers and as such can't really participate in any story. At the very least you should be able to start as Ryoka.
Final Ultima
05-01-2005, 09:09 PM
Indeed. If we were to start a new one, I'd say that you should be able to make the choice between being a human (but with special powers, like Sado or Inoue), a Plus (but with special skills, like Ganju), a Hollow, a Shinigami or a Quincy. Not a normal human though, that's just dull.
Bergelmir
05-01-2005, 09:13 PM
Oh, I meant Human with special powers. Human as... human would just suck floppy donkey balls. So basically you start out as a Chad/Orihime or Ishida-type character, then die and become a Shinigami. BTW Ryoka are people who enter SS without permission or while alive, ie. Ichigo&Co.
Final Ultima

Ok I think I've got it.
Name: The Calm. But I don't know any Japanese so its in english for now :sad
Initial Release Phrase: Summon the Chaos <Calm in Japanese>!
Shikai: The user throws the Zanpakutou into the air and utters the phrase and lightening strikes it and at this point it changes form and then the user catches it. Its now like a huge foot and a half long black pistol with a blade at the top so that if you held it upside down then it would be like a tonfa with a blade. This form emits a powerful spiritual pressure that is abnormaly high giving the area a sense of chaos. But this is also one of its big draw backs, because the spiritual pressure the Zanpakutou emits the user is being constaintly drained. Think Alucard's gun but black with red dragon engravements on the sides and with a blade at the top.
Abilities
Chaos: Fire your basic energy shot that looks like a fire ball. There strength and speed depends on the skill of the user. Just like a stonger shinigami can slash faster and stronger then a weaker one. The shot is just as blockable and dodgable as a slash form a blade it just looks cooler.
Pure Chaos: Fires ten shots symotaniously that spread out at the Zanpakutou's tip and surrounds the enemy on all sides exept directly infont of them where the user will rush the enemy while they are distracted by the shots. Avoidable if you don't get surrounded but thats not very easy. Even if surrounded its still possible to avoid but you have to be fast. The biggest draw back of this attack is that attacking symotaniously like that is very taxing on the user and is best not used unless you know your opponant wont be able to evade it.
Ban Release Phrase: Relenquish the Chaos <Calm in Japanese>!
Bankai: Once the user utters the release phrase the dragon engravemnts recede and the zanpakutou turnes to a liquidish substance that melts into the user and all spiritual pressure ceases which gives the area a sense of calm. The user then becomes like water giving them incredible speed and also makes them impossible to hit when they aren't attacking (unless thery are facing aizen or something) being that there movements are so fluid. Since the user doesn't need to worry about blocking the zanpakutou only apears when the user is about to strike. Its pretty much your standerd zanpakutou but its blue and it seems to move like water because of its incredable speed. Right before the strike the spiritual pressure that left comes back for a monment right before the strike but its twice as powerful this time which can stager even the strongest of enemys for a slight monment leaving them open for attack. This is actualy a hint of weakness though because of that surge of spiritual pressure it gives the enemy a warning giving them the opportunity to avoid the attack or even counter. Kenpachi would probably be the best suited against this bankai being that he's such a power house that the surge of spiritual pressure would baraly affect him.

My sword is based off of a character that I have in my head, so this may work very well for an RPG (not that I've ever tried a text one). No physical details on the character, but she has a split personality. Not entirely split, but she can either be very nice and practically harmless or calm and cruel (not exactly evil). Think Orihime and Rukia's brother in the same body. She wears a mask that covers only one half of her face. The side it covers depends on which personality is dominant at the moment. Her shikai also depends on the dominant personality.
The sword....
Looks like a normal sword usually, as all zanpaktou do.
Shikai
Name: Duo (No idea what this would be in Japanese) This would be what you would call the blade as a whole, but it has two personalities as well, Sakon and Ukon (right, left). I apologize for the stealing of names from Kishimoto-san. (All hail Kishimoto-san!)
Looks: The handle is wrapped like a samurai sword, as I think most zanpaktou are, wrapped in black leather with light and dark blue alternating under the leather. The handle is straight and is about a foot and a half long, long enough to be whelded two-handed comfortably. The hand guard is a little longer than most, but the same width. One side is rounded off and smooth while the other side curves upward into a spike that's parallel with the blades. Yes, blades. Two thin blades, about three and a half feet long, are set back-to-back with about one or two inches between them. The blade on the side with the spike is very sharp while the blade on the other side is dull and harmless.
Depending on the dominant personality, the sword has different abilities, although both have ice characteristics.
Abilities
Nice Side (Ukon): The user uses the dull side of the sword in a defensive sword style. It's ability is called "Diamond Shell" (I don't know Japanese) and it forms a strong ice barrier between the user and her opponent. When saying the release phrase, the blade is held vertical, blade up, with one arm held horizontal behind it.
Release phrase: "Prepare Duo, Ukon defend." Kinda a mouthful.... ha ha But once "Prepare Duo" is said once and the actual blade transforms, "Ukon defend" is all that's necessary to activate the ability. Same with the other side.
Cruel side (Sakon): A more aggressive sword style is used when the cold and cruel personality is dominant and the sharp blade is used. It's ability is "Diamond Spines." With this ability, spikes of ice may be thrown from the blade itself with a diagonal slice of the sword.
Release phrase: "Prepare Duo, Sakon Impale"
Bankai
Name: Gemini
Looks: The two blades merge into one and the spike wraps around the blade in a spiral. The blade also lengthes another six inches to an even four feet. At this point, the user is without her mask and the two sides work together.
Ability: "Diamond Maiden." This attack appears from the ground after the sword is stuck into the ground and the release phrase is said. From below the "victim" two sides of a very large coffin with spikes inside appear and close around him, impaling him with dozens of times. It's similar to an iron maiden, an old torture/execution thing.
Release phrase: "Gemini, Confine"

I'd also be interested in joining a good, dedicated text-based Bleach RPG. I have years and years of experience with it, if you need any help.
Name: Faasureiyaa (Farslayer)
Normal Form: A simple katana-style sword; looks like your regular zanpaktou.
Release Phrase: "Seek 'em, Faasureiyaa!"
Initial Release: Farslayer transforms into a long, thin, straight-bladed sword. The handguard becomes silver laden with wings, and the hilt becomes a dark black, with the pommel a silver to match the guard.
http://www.weaponmasters.com/?ID=WEAPONS&FDX=&FMAX=&SORT=&ITEM=PA-1036&LOCATION=PHOTOS
Abilities: Farslayer gains several unique abilities when released. The first, most notable, and most powerful, is the ability to chase down an opponent. As noted by it's name, Farslayer has the ability to get the "scent" of an opponent's spiritual energy (from the weilder) and follow them anywhere. To use this ability, the weilder passes his hand along the blade, then flings the blade in the air. It then can follow the "scent" it was given anywhere it goes, crossing great distances if necessary to find them. The only way to get away from Farslayer's ability is to either COMPLETELY hide your spirit energy (even the smallest trace can be detected), or leave your current plane (the human or spirital plane). Farslayer seeks out an opponent's heart; it's inevitable landing spot lies through it. Because of it's sleek design and stylization, it can go extremely fast, and because of the energy flowing through it, can cut through almost anything to get to it's target, including less powerful Zanpaktou. Once it has killed it's target, or it's target has become unreachable (from the squashing of spirit power or leaving the current plane), Farslayer returns to it's weilder at a near warp speed.
It's second ability is the ability to let the weilder fly. Nothing spectacular about it, but the user, by grasping the hilt, can focus their spirit energy through the sword and utilize it to fly around. This is only limited by the amount of spirit energy the weilder has.
Ban Kai: Faasureiyaa No Doki (Farslayer's Wrath)
Farslayer takes a new form; more ominous, but still retaining the straight bladed, smooth-edged style. Utilizing the blade's new abilities, the weilder has access to a far more powerful array of abilities. Firstly, if the weilder gives Farslayer a target, it can chase them literally anywhere. Either plane, the blade can pierce it's way into either; and once it gets the scent, no amount of hiding can save them from the blade's bite. The only thing that stop the powerful pierce is a fellow Ban Kai, and a powerful one at that. But, even more so than that, Farslayer now gives it's weilder the ability to warp anywhere in the plane they are in; if they have been in that location before. Both of these abilities take a good chunk of spirit energy, but the pure tactical power of both makes it worth it.
http://www.weaponmasters.com/?ID=WEAPONS&FDX=&FMAX=&SORT=&ITEM=KR0013&LOCATION=PHOTOS
Ultimate Technique: Faasureiyaa No Michi (Farslayer's Path)
Utilizing a the power of Farslayer to it's fullest, the weilder can do it's ultimate technique: Farslayer's Path. Using this technique drains both weilder and blade of their spirit energy, leaving them barely enough to survive. It can also only be used once every three months; as the strain on both zanpaktou and weilder is so great. Utilizing the power of the Ban Kai's second ability, the user gains the ability to instantly teleport hundreds of times in the space of moment. Utilizing this plus powerful sword slashes, the user can literally slice apart even extremely powerful opponents in less time than an eye blink. Very powerful, but very dangerous, technique.

Tanon, Farslayer is a pretty unique name. That coupled along with the fact that I don't know a non-Engrish translation for slayer (I can find one for "to slay", but it's still not the same thing) means that you should probably keep it in Engrish.
Farslayer's Wrath would be Faasureiyaa No Doki.
Farslayer's Path would be Faasureiyaa No Michi.
(Disclaimer: I don't actually know Japanese, so don't take these translations as being the ultimate truth, but I've picked some stuff up over the past eight years of watching anime, so I guess I understand Japanese at a very basic level.)

Its interesting I just have a few questions.
First, does it use more spirit power the farther it has to go?
Second, how fast does it move to its target?
Third, while its going after its target, are you able to call it back, and if so how long does it take to come back?
Also, saying something can only be used X times a month or whatever, isn't a good way to restrict things, it just makes things more complicated than they have to be.

Name: Indou (Requiem)
Non-Shikai Appearance: A simple katana, nothing too distinguishing.
Shikai Appearance: The blade becomes golden and the hilt, black. The hand guard took a from of a thin rectangular shape, which is too, gold.
Shikai Name Release: "Prayer of dead, Indou!"
Bankai: Kyousoukyoku no Kaimei (Concerto of Darkness)
Bankai Appearance: Same as Shikai, except it lets off a purple aura when its swung and stuff. And this time, I wield two blades.
Bankai Name Release: "Ban Kai!"
Ban Kai Skills/Techniques:
Yuumei ( Light and Darkness, i think) -
with a combination of sword strikes and high leveled shunpo, Indou attacks you at all sides, leaving you cut up pretty badly.
Kuroryuu Hakaisha (Black Dragon Destroyer) -
The blades become engulfed in black flames, then when I brandish my swords, a black dragon appears from the flames and charges at you.

1) Yes, but simply because it goes longer. The longer it stays, the more power it uses.
2) Very fast. I'm not talking lightspeed or anything like that, but it easily pierces the sound barrier several times.
3) Yeah...forgot to put that on there -_- And it comes back at the same speed regardless; at a nigh warp. (pretty much, it nearly goes lightspeed on return)
And regarding the X number of months thing...this is just a general weapon profile. If it were on an RPG I was going to be involved with, I would change the wording around a bit to make it more appropriately fit the situation. Plus, limiting it by a time lowers the chance of it's use; it means there is less rambent running about and slaughtering people with it.

Name: Zanmato
Length/looks: It is the size of a normal katana unreleased. More or less it is the same size as Kisuke's Benihime when it is released. It has a normal grip with a wolf's tail at the end of the hilt. The blade itself is half black and half white.
Words to release "Blast through the void ZANMATO!"
Skill: It has two skills. When it slashes it howls like a wolf and creates a wave through the air. It's second ability creates a barrier that absorbs spiritual attacks, however it cannot block physical attacks
Uhm, I hope this soulcutter is not too overpowered or something... and please excuse me if my Japanese is wrong. I only rely on my online-English/Japanese-translator... ^^;
Shikai
Name: Asaindou (“Morning Requiem”)
Length/looks: (coming soon)
Skill: Asaindou has two abilities, the first one is constantly active and makes the blade of the sword invisible which makes it hard to predict the exact length of the weapon and the way it is designed. The only time the blade becomes visible is either the moment of sunrise or the moment of sunset. Asaindou`s second ability allows the user to destroy the soulcutter of every other shinigami for the next 24 hours. This only applies when Asaindou is used at the short time span of dusk or dawn.
Release phrase: “Welcome to the funeral diner, Asaindou!”
Bankai
Name: Reprieve (I couldn`t find a Japanese translation for that..)
Length/looks: blade stays the same, formless Bankai.
Skill: Like Asaindou, Reprieve got two abilities.
Stroke of Luck: reduces the power/effects of every soulcutter/bankai by half for the next 24 hours when ever Reprieve is hit or the bankai of the opponent is released/used. Example: If Tousen Kaname were to release his Bankai, the victim wouldn`t be totally blind, deaf and without the ability to smell, those effects would be lightened, meaning you can slightly see, hear and smell. If Reprieve would be hit by Wabisuke, the soulcutter of Kira Izuru it would compensate its effect (double the weight of the blade with every hit) and thus the weight would stay the same and lightened with every further hit.
Black Sunrise (kuro hinode): The effects stay the same as in the case of “Stroke of Luck” but if the Bankai is released at dawn or dusk, the amount of time in which the soulcutter/Bankai of the enemy is weakened increases from 24 hours up to 365 days.
Release phrase: “My day hasn`t come yet, this is my reprieve!”

^^^^ The Ban Kai abilities aren't too bad... but that second Shi Kai ability is insanely overpowered o.o; Being able to destroy ANY zanpaktou for a 24-hour period?
yeah, but I thought the handicap would be enough. It only can destroy the Zanpaktou for 24 hours when used at the moment of dawn or dusk. So, the chance of fighting someone at that very moment still is very small ^^; But if you say so...

Dude, seriously. Zanpakutou's are meant to be used against Hollows, yours seems totally focused on making you stronger than other Shinigamis.
Uhm, I hope this soulcutter is not too overpowered or something... and please excuse me if my Japanese is wrong. I only rely on my online-English/Japanese-translator... ^^;

Release phrase: “Welcome to the funeral diner, Asaindou!”
The ability to destroy Zanpakutou is too much for anyone to have, the Hollow that killed Kaien shouldn't have had it, let alone another shinigami. Essentially thats like saying "no matter how much stronger than me you are...*poof* your power is gone".
It seems like as long as the sun is setting or rising you can walk up to the most powerful captain and say *poof* your weapons are totally gone.
Sunrise and sunset last longer than a moment. If you're counting the times we see light start to come or recede it lasts quite a while actually.
People need to understand that time restrictions really aren't a good way to restrict things. Suppose I say I have a move that can kill all Shinigami in soul society, but I can only use it once ever 1,000 years. Big deal, I still have a move that can kill all Shinigamis in the soul society, its simply too powerful.
Bankai
Name: Reprieve (I couldn`t find a Japanese translation for that..)
Length/looks: blade stays the same, formless Bankai.
Skill: Like Asaindou, Reprieve got two abilities.
Stroke of Luck: reduces the power/effects of every soulcutter/bankai by half for the next 24 hours when ever Reprieve is hit or the bankai of the opponent is released/used. Example: If Tousen Kaname were to release his Bankai, the victim wouldn`t be totally blind, deaf and without the ability to smell, those effects would be lightened, meaning you can slightly see, hear and smell. If Reprieve would be hit by Wabisuke, the soulcutter of Kira Izuru it would compensate its effect (double the weight of the blade with every hit) and thus the weight would stay the same and lightened with every further hit.
Again, what use would this have on a hollow? It seems specifically geared at fighting Shinigami which is really against the whole purpose of shinigami.
Also, this is a really powerful ability, cutting all your opponents powers in half? Personally I think all your powers should revolve around you in some way, giving you an edge or leveling the playing field (Tousen's was good because it made his opponents like him).
This move is basically saying "no matter how strong you are, I can cut all your power in half...all this after destroying your sword to start with...mwahahahahaha".
Black Sunrise (kuro hinode): The effects stay the same as in the case of “Stroke of Luck” but if the Bankai is released at dawn or dusk, the amount of time in which the soulcutter/Bankai of the enemy is weakened increases from 24 hours up to 365 days.
Release phrase: “My day hasn`t come yet, this is my reprieve!”
Cutting someones power in half for a year?....same comments as above only to a much greater degree.
Sorry if I seem harsh, but this is waaaaay too powerful and seems totally useless against a hollow.

and a red-bladed katana: the hilt's shape is that of a segmented hearth.
../\../\
/...\/...\
\......../
..\..../
....\/
Name:
Thanateros (Eros + Thanatos, meaning Love and Death).
Shikai:
Thanateros' Shikai releases a chain from the hilt of the blade.
Each blade holds a different chain in its hilt so, depending on which of the two chains is released, Thanateros can execute two different Shikai.
Both chains can't be released at the same time (except when using Bankai).
First Shikai ("Burn like a phoenix, Eros!"):
A chain (called the Chain of Lust) is released from the hilt of the red katana.
It searches for his opponent's heart (or his chest, if he doesn't have an heart) and attaches to it.
When the wielder of the Thanateros tries to use spirit power, he instead drains that of his opponent. This is extremely tiring for the affected subject, who has to expend his power for both himself and his opponent.
The spirit power flowing from the target to the hilt can be seen in form of red fire running through the chain.
If the subject severs the chain, the effect ends and the chain needs an hour to regrow; however, the former target of the chain looses half of his total spirit power.
Second Shikai ("Reap the dead and mourn for their souls, Thanatos!"):
A chain (called the Chain of Death) erupts from the hilt of the wakizashi and it attaches to the opponent's heart (or his chest, if he doesn't have an heart).
Every time the person attached to the chain uses his spiritual power, he suffers a proportionate amount of pain (and consequent injury to the muscles, generic tissues, bones or internal organs).
For example, simply fighting holding back one's own spiritual power would only cause a minor nuisance, while a great effort like releasing Bankai or using strong demon arts could even rip the user's muscles or bones.
Every time the chain activates and damages its target, a variable amount of black energy can be seen flowing from the hilt to the victim.
If the subject severs the chain, the effect ends and the chain needs an hour to regrow; however, the former target of the chain looses half of his total spirit power.
Drawbacks: if the wielder of Thanateros activates the Shikai for any of the two blades and is then disarmed of that blade, drops it or in any way looses his grip, he looses half of his spirit power; also, the chain is destroyed (thus rendering him unable of executing Bankai for a full hour).
His opponent, on the other hand, suffers no loss.
Also, escape is impossible for both fighters while a chain is attached. If anyone wants to escape, he has to break the chain; if he does, he looses half of his spirit power (making his escape harder, because his enemy would be then probably left with more spirit power).
Bankai ("Let's end this, Thanateros."):
Both chains are simoultaneously released from the respective hilts. They instantly meld until they become a single chain (half black, half red) seek the enemy's heart (or chest) and attach to it.
If any of the two fighters breaks the chain, he looses all of his spirit power.
Its effect is like that of both Shikai combined: the attacker taps from his victim's spirit power reserve, and every time the target tries to use his spirit power, he suffers proportionate injuries.
Comments:
Both chains are rather loose, so that they don't impair their user's movements.
This Zanpakutou isn't suited for fights involving more than one opponent, because another enemy could cut the chains, suffering no drawbacks, freeing his companion and rendering the attacker unable to execute Bankai for one full hour (or using again that same Shikai).
However, holding two swords is extremely advantageous in a fight: the longer one can be used to bind the opponent sword, while the shorter one strikes at close range (making it difficult for the target to hit with his longer weapon).
Also, they allow the user to parry more attacks from more sides or opponents (too bad both Shikai and Bankai are almost impossible to use in group fights or this would have been one of the best Zanpakutou for fights against a large number of enemies).

My zanpaktou...
A 3 and 1/2 ft sharp blade firmly attached to a hilt of mythril diamonds from the depths of the core.
Shikai:
"Emblaze Zurenkatsu"
After the phrase is said, Zurenkatsu releases red lights and blinds the battlefield for 3 seconds. The user can proceed to attack, or can wait for Zurenkatsu to emit a fiery red flame across the entire length of the sword. The flame grows larger for each successful slash on the opponent and leaves a charred scent on the wound to successfully find the target if he/she runs.
Three stages of Shikai:
1. Shikai release- Fire engulfs the sword.
2. Shikai Mid-The sword and the flame grow larger with each successful hit.
3. Shikai Final Form-The user's body is engulfed in flames and Zurenkatsu is at it's highest Shikai. This test only occurs once per user, and if failed, the user will die an excrutiatingly painful death. If successful, "BANKAI" will be released and incredible speed and power are obtained. Zurenkatsu, a soul like Zangetsu, uses this test to see if the user has full trust in the blade and in himself. Only happens once and only in dire situations.
Bankai release:
"For thee the flames have enraged and shall not be forgiveth. Bankai Release! Katon of the legendary dark flame, erupt and eradicate all in your path."
To release the bankai, you must endure Zurenkatsu's final stage of Shikai to show the worthiness and the trust to handle Zurenkatsu.
Bankai: In a diameter of about 10 miles, the battlefield bursts with flame and the user is granted powers exponentially greater than his own. His movements increase ten-fold, his attack is stronger, and Zurenkatsu has transformed into the legendary katana only known as, "Katon". There is no downside when releasing this bankai, because the user has proven worthy of surviving Zurenkatsu's test. A dragon erupts from the Earth and serves as an almighty shield that reflects all attacks from the opponent.
After the battle, the land is scarred and the dragon becomes the hilt of "Katon", the newly transformed Zanpaktou.
Sounds overpowered right? Well, this power is only capable to those of Full-powered Demon/Ichigo and Yamamoto (1st division caption). So not everyone has the strength to release Katon, and many have died to this legendary blade. Katon will grow to infinite strength if used by a worthy shimigami.

Shikai
Name: Zelistor
Length/looks: A Huge Silver Mace
Skill: Expand = Grows infinitely large as much as the user can control great at smashing and pulverizing. Can destroy most objects.
Protrude = The spikes grow and retract randomly Making for a dangerous Attack
http://www.weaponmasters.com/?ID=WEAPONS&ITEM=MR1-739
This is a bit interesting, but the ability to grow any size is a bit much, you could just have it squash whatever continent we happen to be on. Give it some kind of restriction like the bigger it is the harder it is to maintain, or the bigger it is the harder it is to move.
You say as large as they can control, be more specific about that.
Release phrase: Destroy them Zelistor!
BanKai
Looks: The Mace Becomes a Hammer Turns Gold, Golden Armor embraces the user
Skill: The Bankai allows the user to grow and shrink at will while still utilizing the abilities of the Shikai. The Armor Protects from effects of other Zanpatous as long as the user can maintain Bankai. The only weak spot is the Head of the user. Also speed is dramactially decreased.
Release phrase: EMBRACE ME , ZELISTOR!
Again, interesting, really don't see anything wrong with this as long as the armor isn't absolute.
Ultimate Bankai - User returns to Normal and so does the Bankai except the mace is gold For 10 Mins the Bankai User is Invulnerable and his Strength Immeasurable , Unable to be Moved from the Earth For this Duration. After the Duration The user is left completely armorless and without spirit power for however long it takes for them to recover. Also speed during ultimate Bankai is still decreased as with the Regular Bankai.
Destruction mode Zelistor~
Don't you think this is a bit much (to be totally honest it doesn't sound very creative either). You gain immeasurable strength and invulnerability?

With all due respect, how much "imagination" does it take to say "it has infinite power"? Its more imaginative to give it interesting controlled abilities.
Also it goes against the basic principles of Bleach, Aizen himself said that Shinigami can only grow to a certain potential.
Even if you say it has a limit, but that limit is unknown, thats still too much. That insinuates its limit is beyond the comprehension of the other Shinigami, try to be creative instead of just powerful.

It actually didnt have that i added it in when everyone starting making theirs Stupidly powerful.
Shikai
Name: Zelistor
Length/looks: A Huge Silver Mace
Skill: Expand = Grows infinitely large as much as the user can Maintain. If the Mace becomes to big the use cannot wield it effectively as the weight will be to much and Shikai will be lost making the User VERY, VERY Vulnerable. Great at smashing and pulverizing. Can destroy most objects.
Protrude = The spikes grow and retract randomly Making for a dangerous Attack

BanKai
Looks: The Mace Becomes a Hammer Turns Gold, Golden Armor embraces the user
Skill: The Bankai allows the user to grow and shrink at will( depending on their spirit level but has a maximum before the surface area isnt enough for the body to maintain homeostasis and the user dies) while still utilizing the abilities of the Shikai. The Armor Protects from effects of other Zanpatous as long as the user can maintain Bankai. The only weak spot is the Head of the user. Also speed is dramactially decreased.
Release phrase: EMBRACE ME , ZELISTOR!
Ultimate Bankai - User returns to Normal and so does the Bankai except the mace is gold. This mace Is Indestructible in itself and lighter than its other forms thus the user can go at his normal Speed. This also increases the effects of the Shikai as it Is lighter thus can be made Bigger.
Destruction mode Zelistor~
better?
.
The excess spirit energy eminating from the armor becomes focused engulfing the user and forming a winged dragon of pure spiritual energy (the swords true form). The armor formed from the Zanpakutou allows the user to ride and control this beast. The energy dragon can be controlled as an extra limb of the users body and stretch to an indeterminable length.
(Unclear How big this can be should have a limit as well.)
Arashi Kyaria's in her dragon form can move at blinding speeds tearing through main and peripheral targets, most weaker opponents don't even have time to comprehend whats going on, though moving at these speeds is can be draining on the Shinigami's spiritual energy, so this straight speed thrust is usually not used unless the user is guaranteed a hit.
ThIs balances it out
In this form Arashi Kyaria's offensive capabilities are at her maximum and she is capable of wiping out rows of hollows in a single movement.
So the dragon is made from the energy of the Zanpatou? How much Energy is this exactly ?
All excess energy becomes somewhat focused, revolving around the user providing a very thin aura which slows anything entering it (allowing for added defense against projectiles).
How slow do the projectiles move exactly? Matrix slow? And if A sword or a Claw entered it would be as slowed as well?
The drawback to this form is that it is almost totally defensive, the user is almost totally protected from attacks, Isnt that Basically invulnerable.
Maybe there should be a Drawback From Switching from Defensive to Offensive mode.

Ah i see. My bad. I wanted to portray this certain Zanpakutou as a legendary sword with a powerful soul sealed inside. I guess that goes beyond Bleach. But I do agree with the limiting, so I suppose I went a bit too mythological in my first post :P
Ah well...the power of Katon can reach double the spirit potential of the user. But the sword will lose all power when the owner dies. It will become "Zurenkatsu" once again and will seek out a new shimigami.
There we go, all fixed now. Hope its better! :laugh
@Tsukiyomi: Yeah, I have no problem with what you said :D I simply tried to be more or less original, if you say it´s to powerful I`m going to make my mind up and create an new one. ;)

I like the concept of your Zanpakutou a lot, especially the initial release.
The ability to control the spirit energy flow for many different uses is interesting.
The high-speed spinning thing reminds me a lot of Neji's Kaiten.
Anyway, Shikai seems versatile, original and balanced, which is good.
I'm not very sure about the two Bankai... maybe I should wait for the third one to judge.
I'd adjust the ability to stretch the dragon indefinitely, limiting it according to the user's own spiritual pressure.
However, I like that you worked to find a drawback for the ability, making it very draining for the user to move at high speeds.
I prefer the second Bankai, which looks like a great escape mechanism (great defense + ability to fly) and is very good as long as it's mainly defensive.
In the end, it's one of the best I've read so far.

I wouldn't mind a rating for mine. It's a pretty early one though.
Note: The amount of Zanzou that Saishuu can create does have it's limitations. With Saishuu's Shikai, he needs to run at great speeds in order to create Zanzou, and so this is awfully draining on his stamina. When he transfers his consciousness to a Zanzou however, Saishuu's lifeforce is drained instead of his stamina. With his Bankai, creating Zanzou with physical forms also drain Saishuu's of his lifeforce (as in, if he does it too much, as opposed to becoming exhausted, he could die).
Tsukiyomi
05-12-2005, 02:22 PM
So the dragon is made from the energy of the Zanpatou? How much Energy is this exactly ?
Since I'm going for a storm based Zanpakutou I'm going to change it to a dragon of lightning, but I will add in something about how it drains evergy to balance it out.
Isnt that Basically invulnerable.
How slow do the projectiles move exactly? Matrix slow? And if A sword or a Claw entered it would be as slowed as well?
Maybe there should be a Drawback From Switching from Defensive to Offensive mode.
Yes, all things entering this field are slowed becaues they have to penetrate the aura.
Its not really invincibility because I never said it couldn't be punctured, in fact I specifically said it could just that it would be extremely difficult. I don't feel this is overpowered because as I said it is purely defensive and intended for things like bodyguard missions. It has no offensive abilities to speak of.
The first Ban Kai form is a hybrid attack/defense with drawbacks on energy, the second form is purely defensive, when I do the third ability it will be purely offensive.
Any other problems?
As for the other Zanpakutou I would be happy to rate/review each of them this afternoon when I get out of class if you guys would like that?
okey, so I changed my first blade (so it fitted more with the bankai), and wrote a completely new one.
Don't be afraid to share your oppinion, because you can help me improve my swords :P
oh, and I still haven't double read everything ....so there might be some typos :sweatdrop (sorry)....and I spend almost no time on the release sentences and names...so suggestions and deep thoughts are well appreciated
Besides it was hard for me to get more into details, since English isn't my native language :darn...but I'll think of some details and ornaments for my swords, in the future.
oh well, enjoy
sword number 1
Shikai Name: Hyena
Length/looks: basic sword looks like a throwing knife...
WHen released it changes into a big gun, shaped like a desert eagle with an ivory handle and a small ivory blade on top....
It comes down to the fact the small ivory blade can cut flesh quite well, but will never stop a strong attack from claws (hollow) or a big blade (shingami)..
Skills: a compensation for the fact it's a weak melee weapon, it can shoot out small spiritual bombs/bullets.. Like the sort Mayuri shot out of his hand.
How? the user sends in some spiritual force to Hyena, which then stabilizes it and shoots it out at great speed. The more spirit force is send into the blade, the bigger the projectiles (and their power), but the time between the shots also increases. Every bullet disolves after an amount of time, but this depends on the size of the buller.
Bulls'eye: when an enemy is cut by the blade on top, a small bulls'eye appears on the victim which attracts all bullets. However, there's a catch to it. A small bullet is light enough to manouvre and can even follow its target behind corners, however because it's small it also does little damage and disolves quickly. A very big bullet however is too heavy to change direction during flight, but does a lot of damage when it hits. So the use must carefully choose the size of bullets he shoots out....especially since every bullet drains a bit of his power!!
Enchant bullet: The user can start saying a hadou, which he does not perform, but stores in a bullet. When the bullets is shot out afterwards, and hits its target, it releases the stored demon art inside...
Jackal: the user can create a second smaller gun, that looks like a white glock (without the blade) with an ivory handle.
This gun however does not have the main blade's specialty (bullseye and enchant bullet), but nevertheless can shoot a lot of bullets and increase overall gunpower of the user. He can shoot with the jackal while enchanting the Hyena however.
Release phrase: prey on the weak Hyena
Bankai
Name: Eye of the Beholder
Length/looks: the environment is filled with numerous eyes in all sizes and shapes.
Skill: Each is connected to the main user, and thus giving him an enermous amount of information. Each eye has different specializations, some have infrared visions, others can see spiritual energy, others can see over great distances, X-ray, body heat, etc....
All seeing eye: All this info adds up to the main eye, and gives the main user a sort of all seeing eye. He can see true any illusion, trick, etc. Because the enemy is surrounded by eyes which see everything. It also gives the main user a form of inhuman prediction power. Because he can see everything happen in slow-motion, and knows every move the enemy is about to make.
Harvester: Every single eye simply regenerates when its slashed by the enemy. This is because they consist of spiritual energy, connected to the main Eye. If the main Eye is harmed however, all the floating eyes take damage and dissapear until the main Eye regenerates. But because they are connected, they form a special invisible line among each other. Which acts like a catalyst to all the demon arts the main user makes. With this the main user can send lightning bolts true the eyes onto the enemy, or make the eyes themselves explode.
Release phrase: Beholder, gaze upon them!!
(note: first I wanted to let the main Eye be capable of hypnosis, or mind control...or just capture the opponent in dread/awe. But I think this bankai is powerfull enough already)
sword number 2
shikai
Name: Sakuya
Length/looks: Sakuya is just a very long and very thin katana. It has a very noble look to it and 2 abnormalities:
1. Big black dust particles are constantly falling from the blade
2. It's pitchblack...as if it's absorbing the light around it...
Skill: Many mysteries lay in this sword. Since it's a very fragile sword, it might break if used to slash or cut. However it's tip is very sharp, and it can easily pierce the hardest materials.
Featherdust: There are some secrets behind the dust, it bassically absorbs everything, both light as soul spirit. The user can shake the sword to release a large amount of dust.
1. If the dust falls on the enemy(both hollow and shingami), it starts to drain its soul spirit. The opponent immediatly notices however, since the dust numbs the skin a bit, and can wash off the dust particles with ease.
2.the user can slash the sword in the air, creating a shield with the dust. Now the dust itself is not a real shield, because it can't even block the weakest attack. However, it absorbs all the light trying to pass trough. So if the users makes such a shield in front of him, he bassically disappears. Same goes for when he covers himself with dust, however due to quick movement the dust might fall off.
This also leads to one thing -> the longer the battle, the more dust ends up in the air untill it forms an impossible to see through black cloud.
3. if the opponent is cut/pierced by the blade (flesh is weak enough to be cut), some dust falls into the wound and stops the wound from healing or closing up. If the enemy does not quickly wash his wounds, they might get infected. Not to mention the fact the dust is absorbing his soul energy.
4.the blade absorbs light, and therefore it's form is a bit unclear to see (especially with the featherdust coming from it). This makes the blade look as if it's quite wider/thicker, even though it's so fragile. However if an opponent is pierced, he'll quickly notice how thin the blad really is, and realize its main weakness. This puts more pressure on the user, whether to pierce an opponent and give away Sakuya's weakness, or confuse the opponent more and wait untill you can give a lethal blow.
Release phrase: Bury them in darkness, Sakuya
Bankai
Name: Titan's fist
Length/looks: the blade completely changes its shape : from thin and long, it becomes very thick, wide and short. And a second identical blade takes form on the other side of the hilt, and then slowly moves toward the 1st blade, covering the hilt and gap between the 2blades.
Now it looks more like a savage shield then a noble blade. (still black)
The shield is connected to a lot of chains, and at the end of each chain is a thing ressembling deformedl cannon ball.
Skill: the balls start to quickly swing around the user, releasing enormous amounts of dust. This dust however is smaller and more aggresive. Because the balls are misshaped, they produce a hig pitching sound while spinning.
This all leads to 2 powers
Black cloud:the landscape is filled with the dust released, and everything caught inside is slowly being sucked dry. The dust particles this time are smaller then with the intitial blade, and can also be inhaled. Leading to small caughing or even suffication...if a person stays in too long. The main user is protected because he produces enough wind the with spinning balls to drive away his own dust, while secretly hiding inside the cloud he himself created.
Squeak: The sound created by the balls deforms all other sounds in the area. The enemies cannot make a sound or hear any sounds made by other things/persons. The main drawback is that it has the same effect on the main user and its friend/allies. Fragile opponents can also quickly get irritated or lose their concentration to this sound. But with no sound, no opponent can call for help, chant demon arts, or rely on his hearing in battle.
Black lightning:The balls are spinning fast enough to create electricity. However, normally it's absorbed by the shield and the released dust. But when the balls change shape (open up) they start spinning so fast black electricity is formed, which cannot be absorbed anymore. When opponents get too close, they could already be bashed by the spinning balls and shield, but in this case they'll also get zapped by the lightning. The user could also shoot out the lighting, but its very hard to aim with spinning balls, and predict where the lightning will go. So shooting in 1 direction is like aiming blindly, however once enough lightning has been stored he can perform a bigger release, shooting lightning in all directions.
Release phrase: Crush the lesser
PS: I also edited my first post (http://forums.narutofan.com/showpost.php?p=992325&postcount=3)
PS2: can anyone tell me how those long katanas are called? a smaller katana is a wakazaki (sp?)...and a longer one also had a specific name... Like Demon eyes kyo's blade images/smilies/NF%20smile.gif

I altered mine and did my third Ban Kai ability, I hope its not overpowered (I'm hoping the restrictions I put on it were enough). I think what I did are the kinds of restrictions you should have as opposed to time restrictions.
Kepa, could you put that chunk of text not in a quote, it makes it easier for me to quote a comment on, my next post here should be reviews for the remaining people who asked.
==============================================
I'll post mine again so you guys don't have to search
==============================================
If someone has better name translations, please tell me.
This is an idea in progress off the top of my head.
Name: Arashi wo Motarasu Mono 嵐を齎す者 - "Storm Bringer" - female
Normal Form: Twin Black Blades with no guard -->http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/website/UC1184L.jpg (minus scabbard)
Release Phrase: "Shatter Arashi wo Motarasu Mono"
Initial Release(I would like to get away from the swords and be a little different): Each blade shatters, reforming into gauntlets on each hand and boots on each foot. Each gauntlet is a deep black metal reaching up to the elbows, as they are made from the same material as all Zanpakutou they very dense in spirit energy making them good for attacking and defending. An embossed swastika design exists on the backs of each hand and breaks out into an elaborate pattern. Three spikes protrude from the knuckles.
Each boot reaches almost knee height with pointed toes and spiked heels. No design exists on the boots though they are made form the same spiritually dense material as the gauntlets.
Due to being made from the same material as all Zanpakutou, the gauntlets are capable of catching other Zanpakutou in its grip without being pierced (it would take someone of unreal power to pierce the material just like it would take someone of unreal power to pierce a Zanpakutou).
Abilities: this Zanpakutou has only one real ability, that is the control of its flowing energy, but it allows the user to be quite versatile. The concentration of spirit energy in the arms in legs can be used to grant the user extraordinary speed and increased strength levels.
This Storm based Zanpakutou is constantly generating lightning from the users movements (the more he moves the more power is generated, but its constantly being burned off too), this energy can slice most hollows in half with little or no effort. This relies more on the energy of movement then spirit energy (so it would just turn off until more body energy was generated as opposed to totally draining the user).
Certain movements allow for interesting new moves. A fighting style exists for this Zanpakutou that allows the user to almost totally cover themselves in the excess eectricity flowing from the gauntlets and boots. By spinning at great speeds the user is able to send energy in most directions.
Direct palm thrusts are able to send blasts or wind or energy straight towards an opponent capable of stunning them it hit directly. Certain movements (like slamming both gauntlets together) are capable of creating very small sonic booms that can be damaging to an opponent at point blank (not great a distances).

Name:Reaper's claws
Image: it would be like a claw resembling that of wolverine but not attached to skin they would have handles and by the way theres two of them.
Ability: would be to reverse any zanapktou power into nothing so all of you who have great abolities too bad its gonne and your zanpaktou becomes small like a pencil and then my zanpaktou can also cut into anything.... obviously and i can slash a hole in the air and i can just go into to that slash and come out anywhere in the world Yeah and one slash can kill you resembling of the Reapers Scythe.... yeah nobody can beat me know... mwahahahahahahahah
Hmm, this is the first time i am trying to create a zanpakutou, so bare with me.
name: black & white
initial release: the katana turns into 4 flaming rings. the weilder may use two rings and ride on them under his feet like inline skates. also these ring may be used either as melee or ranged weapons. meaning u can either throw them or get up close and attack.
Passive ability: there is a good chance that the flaming ring will set any enermy on fire as they touch them. (burn baby burn)
Engulfing fire: the user sends out the four rings and surround the enermy with them. the rings start spreading out fire so hot and wide it engulfes the enermy in flames.
Solar Ring: Final initial ability. fusing two rings together and then using the fused ring to attack an enermy will cause the enermy to disenerate due to the plasma hot ring touching him/her.
Bankai: Absolute zero
only has one bankai. all four rings return back into the katana. steam surrounds the katana's blade. as the blade touches anything, the material immediately solidifies and then becomes plasma itself as the blade brings each molecule down to 0 Kelvin (works on spirits as well).
Side effects:
Initial release: Keeping up the flaming rings drains the user constantly spiritual power. A normal Shinigami may uphold the flaming rings at a maximum of 10 min.
Bankai: the surrounding of the user becomes so cold, it actually affects the user as well. max time limit is 1 min. for a captain. (so kill anyone with a single hit pretty much:P)

Length/looks: basic sword looks like a throwing knife...
WHen released it changes into a big gun, shaped like a desert eagle with an ivory handle and a small ivory blade on top....
It comes down to the fact the small ivory blade can cut flesh quite well, but will never stop a strong attack from claws (hollow) or a big blade (shingami)..
Skills: a compensation for the fact it's a weak melee weapon, it can shoot out small spiritual bombs/bullets.. Like the sort Mayuri shot out of his hand.
How? the user sends in some spiritual force to Hyena, which then stabilizes it and shoots it out at great speed. The more spirit force is send into the blade, the bigger the projectiles (and their power), but the time between the shots also increases. Every bullet disolves after an amount of time, but this depends on the size of the buller.

Jackal: the user can create a second smaller gun, that looks like a white glock (without the blade) with an ivory handle.
This gun however does not have the main blade's specialty (bullseye and enchant bullet), but nevertheless can shoot a lot of bullets and increase overall gunpower of the user. He can shoot with the jackal while enchanting the Hyena however.
Release phrase: prey on the weak Hyena
I'm not big on the whole idea of a gun weapon, unless you're fighting someone fast enough to block/dodge the bullets like a captain, its going to be hard to combat such a weapon.
I like the pull away from purely blade based weaponry though, so that kinda makes up for it.
Bankai
Name: Eye of the Beholder
Length/looks: the environment is filled with numerous eyes in all sizes and shapes.
Skill: Each is connected to the main user, and thus giving him an enermous amount of information. Each eye has different specializations, some have infrared visions, others can see spiritual energy, others can see over great distances, X-ray, body heat, etc....
All seeing eye: All this info adds up to the main eye, and gives the main user a sort of all seeing eye. He can see true any illusion, trick, etc. Because the enemy is surrounded by eyes which see everything. It also gives the main user a form of inhuman prediction power. Because he can see everything happen in slow-motion, and knows every move the enemy is about to make.

Release phrase: Beholder, gaze upon them!!
(note: first I wanted to let the main Eye be capable of hypnosis, or mind control...or just capture the opponent in dread/awe. But I think this bankai is powerfull enough already)
I'm not big on the whole "predict every single move the enemy will make" thing, Omniscience doesn't make for interesting battles. It would be fine if it gave you a high probablity for predicting their moves, but some unpredictability would make the battles much much more interesting.
Also, how much energy do the eyes take to maintain and regenerate? Regeneration usually requires a lot of energy.
Also how is the user able to cope with so much information? Do they get easily overwhelmed in this form (considering the massive amount of information)?
shikai
Name: Sakuya
Length/looks: Sakuya is just a very long and very thin katana. It has a very noble look to it and 2 abnormalities:
1. Big black dust particles are constantly falling from the blade
2. It's pitchblack...as if it's absorbing the light around it...
Skill: Many mysteries lay in this sword. Since it's a very fragile sword, it might break if used to slash or cut. However it's tip is very sharp, and it can easily pierce the hardest materials.
Featherdust: There are some secrets behind the dust, it bassically absorbs everything, both light as soul spirit. The user can shake the sword to release a large amount of dust.
1. If the dust falls on the enemy(both hollow and shingami), it starts to drain its soul spirit. The opponent immediatly notices however, since the dust numbs the skin a bit, and can wash off the dust particles with ease.
2.the user can slash the sword in the air, creating a shield with the dust. Now the dust itself is not a real shield, because it can't even block the weakest attack. However, it absorbs all the light trying to pass trough. So if the users makes such a shield in front of him, he bassically disappears. Same goes for when he covers himself with dust, however due to quick movement the dust might fall off.
This also leads to one thing -> the longer the battle, the more dust ends up in the air untill it forms an impossible to see through black cloud.
3. if the opponent is cut/pierced by the blade (flesh is weak enough to be cut), some dust falls into the wound and stops the wound from healing or closing up. If the enemy does not quickly wash his wounds, they might get infected. Not to mention the fact the dust is absorbing his soul energy.
4.the blade absorbs light, and therefore it's form is a bit unclear to see (especially with the featherdust coming from it). This makes the blade look as if it's quite wider/thicker, even though it's so fragile. However if an opponent is pierced, he'll quickly notice how thin the blad really is, and realize its main weakness. This puts more pressure on the user, whether to pierce an opponent and give away Sakuya's weakness, or confuse the opponent more and wait untill you can give a lethal blow.
Release phrase: Bury them in darkness, Sakuya
How much energy does it take to constantly be creating this dust? Its an interesting idea, not much else to be said really, just an odd idea.
Bankai
Name: Titan's fist
Skill: the balls start to quickly swing around the user, releasing enormous amounts of dust. This dust however is smaller and more aggresive. Because the balls are misshaped, they produce a hig pitching sound while spinning.
This all leads to 2 powers
Black cloud:the landscape is filled with the dust released, and everything caught inside is slowly being sucked dry. The dust particles this time are smaller then with the intitial blade, and can also be inhaled. Leading to small caughing or even suffication...if a person stays in too long. The main user is protected because he produces enough wind the with spinning balls to drive away his own dust, while secretly hiding inside the cloud he himself created.
Squeak: The sound created by the balls deforms all other sounds in the area. The enemies cannot make a sound or hear any sounds made by other things/persons. The main drawback is that it has the same effect on the main user and its friend/allies. Fragile opponents can also quickly get irritated or lose their concentration to this sound. But with no sound, no opponent can call for help, chant demon arts, or rely on his hearing in battle.
Black lightning:The balls are spinning fast enough to create electricity. However, normally it's absorbed by the shield and the released dust. But when the balls change shape (open up) they start spinning so fast black electricity is formed, which cannot be absorbed anymore. When opponents get too close, they could already be bashed by the spinning balls and shield, but in this case they'll also get zapped by the lightning. The user could also shoot out the lighting, but its very hard to aim with spinning balls, and predict where the lightning will go. So shooting in 1 direction is like aiming blindly, however once enough lightning has been stored he can perform a bigger release, shooting lightning in all directions.
Release phrase: Crush the lesser
Wait...so does that mean the user is subject to the dust if it touches him as well?
A lot of these abilities don't seem like good offensive moves because they deprive the user and enemy of their power. I like the balance though, I like that very much.

Sorry for posting several times in a row, but the length limit is 10,000.
Shikai: Hayaichiame (Quick Blood Rain)
Release Phrase: "Split the sky, Hayaichiame!"
Appearance: http://www.weaponmasters.com/images...M/WM-3095L1.jpg (http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM/WM-3095L1.jpg)
Abilities:
Increase in speed and strength.
Able to create Zanzou (after-images) by moving with great speed.
Able to transfer consciousness to any of the Zanzou.
Skills:
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Satsugiri (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Death Slash)
Saishuu creates two Zanzou that prepare to charge at the opponent and slash at them horizontally. If Saishuu chooses to, he can decide to send his consciousness to either of these Zanzou. If not, he repeats the process but at a closer distance and with a diagonal slash instead of a horizonal one. If he chooses not to send his consciousness to either of these, the original Saishuu appears and performs Hijutsu: Shishunsatsu.
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Tendoudan (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Celestial Missile)
Saishuu throws the opponent in the air, then fires his unique Hadou, Hijutsu: Kage Eikoudan at them. As they are sent high into the air, Saishuu creates a Zanzou above them, and transfers his consciousness to it. The body that threw the opponent originally then fades away. Saishuu, now above the opponent, then kicks the opponent in the back with great force, sending them down to the ground.
I have a question, how can you place your consciousness in an after image? Its a cool concept, but an after image is like a reflection that hasn't faded yet.
I like the second move, nice to see some real melee fighting.
Bankai: Hayaichiame Zansatsu (Quick Blood Rain Massacre)
Appearance: http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM2005/WM-5000L5.jpg (http://%3c/b%3Ehttp://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM2005/WM-5000L5.jpg)
User Appearance Changes: Saishuu is now dressed in his Ultima Saishuu attire.
Abilities:
Greater increase in strength and speed.
Able to spawn Zanzou from his own body without moving.
Able to give all Zanzou physical form without transfering his consciousness.
Able to give his original body ethereal form without transfering his consciousness.
Skills:
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Zansatsugiri (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Massacre Slash)
Saishuu performs the first stage to Satsugiri, but instead of creating an extra two Zanzou, the original Saishuu becomes ethereal and stands within the body of his opponent. Saishuu then creates six Zanzou that pull their upper half slightly from the original body whilst still sharing the same lower half of the original body. All six Zanzou become real at the point they slash the opponent, then as the six Zanzou become ethereal again and disappear, the original becomes physical again, ripping the opponent's body apart.
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Chou Tendoudan (Shirogami Saishuu Special: Super Celestial Missile)
Interesting and gruesome (which is nice), but what if the opponent is stronger than you, can you still rip them in half or would you be crushed?
Also what if the opponent is moving around really fast, do you have to try and keep up with them or do you move with them?
Saishuu throws the opponent into the air and fires a Kage Eikoudan at them like the first stage of Tendoudan. However, instead of creating one Zanzou, Saishuu creates six, all of which having a physical body. The original Saishuu fades away. As the central Zanzou, now Saishuu's main body, throws his Hayaichiame Zansatsu at the opponent, the other five descend with their blades. The central blade hits the opponent in the back, then as the other five Zanzou stab down into the opponent's limbs and head, Saishuu kicks down into the hilt of the central sword, forcing it further into the back of the opponent. The opponent plummets to the ground, and the five Zanzou fade along with their swords, leaving Saishuu's main body stood on Hayaichiame Zansatsu's hilt.
I like the one-man-army style of fighting.

Ok I think I've got it.
Name: The Calm. But I don't know any Japanese so its in english for now :sad
Initial Release Phrase: Summon the Chaos <Calm in Japanese>!
Shikai: The user throws the Zanpakutou into the air and utters the phrase and lightening strikes it and at this point it changes form and then the user catches it. Its now like a huge foot and a half long black pistol with a blade at the top so that if you held it upside down then it would be like a tonfa with a blade. This form emits a powerful spiritual pressure that is abnormaly high giving the area a sense of chaos. Think Alucard's gun but black with red dragon engravements on the sides and with a blade at the top.
Again, I'm not big on the whole gun thing (but thats just me personally). Unless you're fighting someone who is fast enough to block/dodge bullets its not that likely they can fight back (or if their far enough beyond you in strength to withstand it).
Also if its going to be abnormally high in spiritual power, it should be abnormally draining as well to give it balance.
Abilities
Chaos: Fire your basic energy shot that looks like a fire ball. They are strong enough to kill a regular hollow but a they aren't stong enough to take down a shinigami at least not in one shot. Defanitly avoidable by a skilled shinigami.
Pure Chaos: Fires ten shots symotaniously that spread out at the Zanpakutou's tip and surrounds the enemy on all sides exept directly infont of them where the user will rush the enemy while they are distracted by the shots. Avoidable if you don't get surrounded but thats not very easy. Even if surrounded its still possible to avoid but you have to be fast.
How much spiritual power do these blasts consume?
Ban Release Phrase: Relenquish the Chaos <Calm in Japanese>!
Bankai: Once the user utters the release phrase the dragon engravemnts recede and the zanpakutou turnes to a liquidish substance that melts into the user and all spiritual pressure ceases which gives the area a sense of calm. The user then becomes like water giving them incredible speed and also makes them impossible to hit when they aren't attacking being that there movements are so fluid. Since the user doesn't need to worry about blocking the zanpakutou only apears when the user is about to strike. Its pretty much your standerd zanpakutou but its blue and it seems to move like water because of its incredable speed. Right before the strike the spiritual pressure that left comes back for a monment right before the strike but its twice as powerful this time which can stager even the strongest of enemys for a slight monment leaving them open for attack. This is actualy a hint of weakness though because of that surge of spiritual pressure it gives the enemy a warning giving them the opportunity to avoid the attack or even counter. Needless to say though this is near impossible due to the strength of the spiritual energy.
I don't like the word "impossible", no one should be impossible to hit or defeat or dodge.
You become essentially invincible and during your few moments of solidity you are twice as strong as before? Capable of staggering the strongest enemies?
Also how long can this be maintained? What weaknesses/drawbacks/balances does it have?
enceladus
05-12-2005, 11:45 PM
^_^; I hate to ask, but can you rate mine too?
I didn't really write any weaknesses, but each attack is realistic and can be smashed though or dodged depending on how strong/fast the enemy is. Honestly, Ichigo would probably beat my character into a pulp if the fight is based on strength. But, there's more to a fight than strength. Used strategically, the abilities of either Duo or Gemini could do quite a bit of damage.
Tsukiyomi
05-13-2005, 12:03 AM
Shikai
Name: Duo (No idea what this would be in Japanese) This would be what you would call the blade as a whole, but it has two personalities as well, Sakon and Ukon (right, left). I apologize for the stealing of names from Kishimoto-san. (All hail Kishimoto-san!)
Looks: The handle is wrapped like a samurai sword, as I think most zanpaktou are, wrapped in black leather with light and dark blue alternating under the leather. The handle is straight and is about a foot and a half long, long enough to be whelded two-handed comfortably. The hand guard is a little longer than most, but the same width. One side is rounded off and smooth while the other side curves upward into a spike that's parallel with the blades. Yes, blades. Two thin blades, about three and a half feet long, are set back-to-back with about one or two inches between them. The blade on the side with the spike is very sharp while the blade on the other side is dull and harmless.
Depending on the dominant personality, the sword has different abilities, although both have ice characteristics.
Ooo, I love the idea of a schizophrenic sword.
Abilities
Nice Side (Ukon): The user uses the dull side of the sword in a defensive sword style. It's ability is called "Diamond Shell" (I don't know Japanese) and it forms a strong ice barrier between the user and her opponent. When saying the release phrase, the blade is held vertical, blade up, with one arm held horizontal behind it.
Release phrase: "Prepare Duo, Ukon defend." Kinda a mouthful.... ha ha But once "Prepare Duo" is said once and the actual blade transforms, "Ukon defend" is all that's necessary to activate the ability. Same with the other side.
How strong is the ice barrier? Would it be weak against fire-based attacks?
I like how the nice side is defensive, its a nice touch.
Cruel side (Sakon): A more aggressive sword style is used when the cold and cruel personality is dominant and the sharp blade is used. It's ability is "Diamond Spines." With this ability, spikes of ice may be thrown from the blade itself with a diagonal slice of the sword.
Release phrase: "Prepare Duo, Sakon Impale"
Again is the ice vulerable to fire or would it be maintained through spirit force or anything like that?
How strong are the spikes too.
Bankai
Name: Gemini
Looks: The two blades merge into one and the spike wraps around the blade in a spiral. The blade also lengthes another six inches to an even four feet. At this point, the user is without her mask and the two sides work together.
Ability: "Diamond Maiden." This attack appears from the ground after the sword is stuck into the ground and the release phrase is said. From below the "victim" two sides of a very large coffin with spikes inside appear and close around him, impaling him with dozens of times. It's similar to an iron maiden, an old torture/execution thing.
Release phrase: "Gemini, Confine"
Love the old-style torture theme. What if the opponent escapes or dodges? Does it have any secondary abilities to fight with?
===============
How about you guys rate/review/critique mine now?
silent_speech
05-13-2005, 12:10 AM
Wow, this is a nice thread, i think i'll have a go at it as well.
Soul Cutter Name: Forgiver
Pre-Release: It looks like a regular katana, except that the blade is covered with a special type of red rust which takes away the soul cutter's ability to harm others, with the exception of hollows.
Shikai
Release phrase: Release your tears, Forgiver!!!
Appearance: The katana grows longer and the red rust which covered the blade now covers the whole katana (including and the hand guard) creating a natural sheath for the zanpakutou. Once the transformation is complete, the zanpakutou takes the color of its surroundings, hiding it from the view of the opponent. The only time the zanpakutou can be seen once again is if the blade is unsheathed or if the user loses his/her hold on the sword.
The user must fight with blade inside the rust sheath unless he/she wants to unleash the shikai's special skill. Once again, only hollows can be cut by the sheathed blade.
Philosophy: "Only those who can defeat the enemy without a blade can truly be called the mightiest!!!"
Special Shikai Skill: Illusion of the Dark Soul
This special skill is activated once the user draws the blade from the sheath. As soon as the full length of the shikai is drawn, the blade becomes visible once more; however, the rust that is released from the unsheathing combines with the users spiritrons to create physical clones of the weilder. The more spiritual energy the user has, the more clones will be created, and the longer they will last in a battle. Each of the clones can physically hurt the opponent, and if destroyed, the clone will explode like a bomb, fatally wounding anything or anyone nearby.
This skill is only usable once for every initial release; if the opponent somehow dodges every single attack launched against him(every physical attack, excluding the explosion if the clone is destroyed), the sword will revert back to its original form and will lose the rust which gives it the ability for it to be released once again for a few hours.
Ban Kai
Release phrase: Wipe away your tears, Heartless Forgiver!!!
Prerequisite: The sword must still have rust on it for Ban Kai.
Appearance: The rust explodes over the whole battlefield, and creates small mirrors which float around as long as ban kai is in effect. These mirrors are to be used in conjunction with the ban kai's different skills. (The katana's blade can now be used, by the way.)
Skill: Ruthless
The user slides his/her finger from the guard to the tip, activating countless seals on the blade. Afterwards, the user slashes and releases 13 swords made out energy towards the enemy. The energy swords do not move quickly; however, they can be reflected from the mirrors which are all throughout the battlefield for 5 times before they fade away. If an energy sword hits the enemy, it will temporarily paralyze the part of the body it hits and will create a teardrop mark on the target's body. If none of them hit the enemy, a random part of the user's body will be temporarily paralyzed.
Skill: Merciless
The countless mirrors created by the rust start attacking the enemy from all angles if the enemy gets hit by the energy sword from 'Ruthless'. These mirrors will continue attacking the target until it hits the targeted area.
Ultimate Skill: Illusion of the Heartless Blade
This skill can only be used if the user achieves ban kai after 'Illusion of the Dark Soul' is used. The remaining rust explodes all throughout the battlefield, creating 5 mirrors in the whole battlefield. The replications created by 'Illusion of the Dark Soul' now have the ability to move through these mirrors so as to avoid damage and to transport themselves throughout the battlefield in a blink of an eye. However, if the user achieves ban kai after 'Illusion of the Dark Soul' is used, the user has only 5 minutes before soul cutter reverts back to its original soul cutter form without any rust. This rust will only return after a few hours.
Philosophy: "After the veil of tears comes the real destruction."

Got bored, so here's yet another USSN bankai:
Name: Seisokumaru (Formal circle)
Description: A shortened straight edged blade. Designed for brute force striking and close quarters combat. Is used more like a Gladius then a Katana or Jinn.
Release Phrase: Show them, Seisokumaru!
Initial Release:By raising the sword, the user can create a flash so bright, that it momentarily blinds his opponent. It can also be used to create alternating, random, flashes of great intensity that can cause further bewilderness.
Bankai: PurominensuNoTaiyo A very crude translation into Japanese of Solar Prominence. Makes Seisokamaru into a freaking light saber. While it cannot cut through everything like one, it is incredibly hot.The heat is so intense that it causes the metal to glow white hot. However, the strength of the metal and keenness of the blade is still there, albeit not changed in either a negative or postive light.

Ooo, I love the idea of a schizophrenic sword.
How strong is the ice barrier? Would it be weak against fire-based attacks?
I like how the nice side is defensive, its a nice touch.
Again is the ice vulerable to fire or would it be maintained through spirit force or anything like that?
How strong are the spikes too.
Love the old-style torture theme. What if the opponent escapes or dodges? Does it have any secondary abilities to fight with?
Um..... Let's see.... Well, the ice is as hard as rock (diamond, maybe) and it's mostly resistant to heat. Mostly. While a fire attack may weaken the shield/spikes, the ice won't just melt it into a puddle. Maybe if the enemy first used fire to weaken the ice and then followed up with a strong blow then it may shatter. It's certainly an advantage to use fire against my zanpakutou, but not a guarenteed win.
And the Ban Kai? Well, like I said before, this sword requires a bit of strategy to make sure you hit your target. The enemy must first be immobilized so that the Diamond Maiden would hit, seeing as it comes from the ground and the user must risk staying still to thrust the sword in the ground. The attack does come from the ground pretty quickly, but that doesn't mean you can catch someone full-run.
To immobilize the enemy, the user would use Gemini's numbing ability (just made this up). This ability causes the enemy to become numb whereever the sword hits. The effect is gradual, however, so that first the cut itself is numb instantly (so he may not even realize he's been cut), and then it spreads, first making the muscles sluggish before all feeling is lost. The effects of this attack vary depending on the will power, strength, or spirit power of the enemy and the will of the user, whether she is aiming to kill or just weaken. As the effect is very slow, it may just slow down the enemy enough to use the Diamond Maiden without having to wait until the enemy is numb.
And if he does escape/dodge? Hmm.... Well, the user may take a moment to react due to the sword in the ground, but no really large adverse effects except the usual use of spirit power.

Name: Arashi wo Motarasu Mono ????? - "Storm Bringer" - female
Normal Form: Twin Black Blades with no guard -->http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/website/UC1184L.jpg (minus scabbard)
Release Phrase: "Shatter Arashi wo Motarasu Mono"
Very original idea with this one. I don't know though... it's not a sword... but it's still really cool and just about within the realm of possibility of Bleach. But, as someone said before, it really does remind me of Neji's fighting style. There are good and bad sides to using another character's abilities (whether you meant to or not). There will be some Neji fans that will love you instantly because of it,but others may perceive your idea as unoriginal, even if you hadn't considered Neji at all. But it really is a cool idea. ^_^ I commend you.
I'm afraid I'll have to judge the rest later. Be back tomorrow when looking for the new Naruto and Bleach chapters.
would someone mind judging my sword? i know its a little short and not describtive... but right now i am out of ideas on how to correct it >.<
Final Ultima
05-13-2005, 05:31 AM
I have a question, how can you place your consciousness in an after image? Its a cool concept, but an after image is like a reflection that hasn't faded yet.Shikai related plot device, as simple as that. It shouldn't really make sense...but it does.
I like the second move, nice to see some real melee fighting.Thank you.
Interesting and gruesome (which is nice), but what if the opponent is stronger than you, can you still rip them in half or would you be crushed?I'm pretty sure any person to suddenly have a full grown man manifest inside of them would get ripped apart, but in the off chance that they're so durable that it wouldn't work, Saishuu would have to do a consciousness transfer as soon as possible, or else yeah, he'd be crushed for sure.
Also what if the opponent is moving around really fast, do you have to try and keep up with them or do you move with them?He has to be able to actually sneak his ethereal form inside the opponent's body. The Zanzou are used as distractions to give Saishuu the opportunity to do so. If the opponent is moving around fast, it makes Saishuu's job more difficult, but not impossible. This is generally a technique saved for people that are too baffled by the Zanzou to react in time.
I like the one-man-army style of fighting.Yeah, it's a technique mainly used to take out large beings that can regenerate faster than normal. The reason all of the Zanzou stab down is to create so many problem spots that either the opponent cannot heal all of the stab wounds, or that he/she spends too much time and energy regenerating them and doesn't focus on the Hijutsu: Kage Eikoudan that's currently burning away at their flesh.
I'm not big on the whole idea of a gun weapon, unless you're fighting someone fast enough to block/dodge the bullets like a captain, its going to be hard to combat such a weapon.
well that's also the reason why I said it doesn't really shoot bullets, but those spiritual balls. basically the "gun" shoots demon arts...
And if we look at all those projectile weapons, which the user control by will? or shoots 50in 1second like that quincy guy, Or just shoots a plasma beam capable of splitting half the world....I'd say it's even underpowered.
I clearly stated that close range is it's weakness, but he can't shoot from too far away because then the bullets disolve....So he has to get closer for stronger/better shots, but then risks having to block an attack with that small sword :/
I like the pull away from purely blade based weaponry though, so that kinda makes up for it.
well the bankai were eyes....so then I decided to make some shooting weapon. But since bow, and most projectiles were already taken (weren't gonna make some lamer that shoots needles :amazed) I went for a gun.
I'm not big on the whole "predict every single move the enemy will make" thing, Omniscience doesn't make for interesting battles. It would be fine if it gave you a high probablity for predicting their moves, but some unpredictability would make the battles much much more interesting. well, of course....I meant predict (known) movement, not skills actually ;). You see, the eyes see a persons muscles and the energy supplied to them, and can predict he'll use that muscle to move. SO this allows the user to see true illusions, obstacles, feints, etc..
But if someoen like, let's say ichigo would suddenly rise his sword and shoot, The eyes would see he focuses a lot of spirit energy in his sword, but do not know the purpose.. I never said the eyes are like an oracle that see into the future, or that they can read a person's mind.. They just give the user more time to react, and a lot more info to react on.
Also, how much energy do the eyes take to maintain and regenerate? Regeneration usually requires a lot of energy.
well eyes aren't that big...and eyes are also hollow, they are build from soul energy, so the regeneration itself takes little energy. However Having so many eyes float around and sustain the connection between them does take a lot of concentration and energy.
Also how is the user able to cope with so much information? Do they get easily overwhelmed in this form (considering the massive amount of information)?
well that's why I added the main eye that filters it all..
at first I wanted the user to be able to choose between vision modes, like "predator" :P.. but then I just thought : " person can see, feel heat, hear sounds, do movements, etc... at the same time.. so what's the difference if he also was able to see heat, X-ray, etc..."...perhaps it would be better he did not saw it all at the same time, but let the main eye take all info in and just let the user know it all....Like some people know a persons weight by just looking at them ;)
How much energy does it take to constantly be creating this dust? Its an interesting idea, not much else to be said really, just an odd idea.
at first I wanted the dust to create allergies, but the end result sounded quite lame...so I just let the dust absorb energy then. And since it absorbs everything, it self-sustaining...
But no, it does not use up a lot of energy, the sword basically diffuses the dust like we grow hair or something..
Wait...so does that mean the user is subject to the dust if it touches him as well?
that was one of my dillemas, is the user able to see trough the dust, and ignore the absorbing power, or not?? If so, the dust can be used for both offensive and defencive purposes... if not, the dust could only be used to avoid an enemy's blow and weaken him.
I'm gonna go with "the user is not affected" way out...the sword doesn't sound powerful enough otherwise. I mean, the dust can easily be washed off, and the user just has to use the dust in tricks and feints to make an effective attack. He cannot do so if he constantly has to watch out for the dust himself.
A lot of these abilities don't seem like good offensive moves because they deprive the user and enemy of their power. I like the balance though, I like that very much. I wanted to give the bankai the power as if the user was trapped in a burning building, but fire was already used...and thunder sounded better. SO that's why I tried to make the bankai look as if the enemy are trapped in a thunder cloud.
I actually had a second idea, to give the shield the same ability as shiba's cannonbals, to form a shield around him whenever he wants to..... or (more powerfull), make the shield from the same substance in that soul society wall, that blocks all soul power... This way it could create an invisible wall around the user blocking the dust from getting near...

Not that I'm against the ability at all, its very cool, but how would you combat something like this? This move seems a little absolute.
Even if he was able to manifest inside them and kill them, manifesting inside a solid space should be devastating to him as well to say the least. Suppose you did it on someone wearing armor like my Zanpakutou.
Thanks for your imput I'll change some things.

Soul Cutter Name: Forgiver
Pre-Release: It looks like a regular katana, except that the blade is covered with a special type of red rust which takes away the soul cutter's ability to harm others, with the exception of hollows.
Shikai
Release phrase: Release your tears, Forgiver!!!
Appearance: The katana grows longer and the red rust which covered the blade now covers the whole katana (including and the hand guard) creating a natural sheath for the zanpakutou. Once the transformation is complete, the zanpakutou takes the color of its surroundings, hiding it from the view of the opponent. The only time the zanpakutou can be seen once again is if the blade is unsheathed or if the user loses his/her hold on the sword.
The user must fight with blade inside the rust sheath unless he/she wants to unleash the shikai's special skill. Once again, only hollows can be cut by the sheathed blade.
Philosophy: "Only those who can defeat the enemy without a blade can truly be called the mightiest!!!"
Interesting idea, especially the part about Shinigami being immune, very original. Not much else to say about this apsect.
Special Shikai Skill: Illusion of the Dark Soul
This special skill is activated once the user draws the blade from the sheath. As soon as the full length of the shikai is drawn, the blade becomes visible once more; however, the rust that is released from the unsheathing combines with the users spiritrons to create physical clones of the weilder. The more spiritual energy the user has, the more clones will be created, and the longer they will last in a battle. Each of the clones can physically hurt the opponent, and if destroyed, the clone will explode like a bomb, fatally wounding anything or anyone nearby.
This skill is only usable once for every initial release; if the opponent somehow dodges every single attack launched against him(every physical attack, excluding the explosion if the clone is destroyed), the sword will revert back to its original form and will lose the rust which gives it the ability for it to be released once again for a few hours.
Since the number of clones is dependant upon spirit energy, does it mean this technique is severely draining.
Also how durable is the typical clone created? How solid of a hit does it take to destroy them, and is the user subject to the explosions?
Ban Kai
Release phrase: Wipe away your tears, Heartless Forgiver!!!
Prerequisite: The sword must still have rust on it for Ban Kai.
Appearance: The rust explodes over the whole battlefield, and creates small mirrors which float around as long as ban kai is in effect. These mirrors are to be used in conjunction with the ban kai's different skills. (The katana's blade can now be used, by the way.)
I like, I like. The mirror aspect is always a nice start.
Skill: Ruthless
The user slides his/her finger from the guard to the tip, activating countless seals on the blade. Afterwards, the user slashes and releases 13 swords made out energy towards the enemy. The energy swords do not move quickly; however, they can be reflected from the mirrors which are all throughout the battlefield for 5 times before they fade away. If an energy sword hits the enemy, it will temporarily paralyze the part of the body it hits and will create a teardrop mark on the target's body. If none of them hit the enemy, a random part of the user's body will be temporarily paralyzed.
Wait, do you mean the swords disappear after 5 reflects or the mirrors do? Also, does the sword move faster after being reflected? If they don't I don't see the point of the mirrors in this instance.
Skill: Merciless
The countless mirrors created by the rust start attacking the enemy from all angles if the enemy gets hit by the energy sword from 'Ruthless'. These mirrors will continue attacking the target until it hits the targeted area.
What do you mean the mirrors start attacking? What exactly do they do that wasn't described in the previous move?
Ultimate Skill: Illusion of the Heartless Blade
This skill can only be used if the user achieves ban kai after 'Illusion of the Dark Soul' is used. The remaining rust explodes all throughout the battlefield, creating 5 mirrors in the whole battlefield. The replications created by 'Illusion of the Dark Soul' now have the ability to move through these mirrors so as to avoid damage and to transport themselves throughout the battlefield in a blink of an eye. However, if the user achieves ban kai after 'Illusion of the Dark Soul' is used, the user has only 5 minutes before soul cutter reverts back to its original soul cutter form without any rust. This rust will only return after a few hours.
Philosophy: "After the veil of tears comes the real destruction."
Heres a question, can the mirrors be destroyed? If so what happens when they are?
Also can these mirrors move and where do they appear on the battlefield.
And I still have my usual question, how much spirit energy does it require?
---------------------------
I made changes to mine, if anyone has a free moment I would like to have it reviewed again.
As for the Neji comment, the spinning was an homage to Neji as he's one of my favorite characters. Thats the only thing meant to emulate something else, the fighting style my character would use is different.

Even if he was able to manifest inside them and kill them, manifesting inside a solid space should be devastating to him as well to say the least. Suppose you did it on someone wearing armor like my Zanpakutou.Well, when Saishuu becomes physical, he fires out a small wave of concentrated reiatsu, which insures that when he emerges, he won't be killed just by getting crushed unless the reiatsu wave isn't effective (he doesn't create a move like that just for the purpose of commiting suicide, after all). It's a risky move in the sense that there's the off chance that he can't rip them apart and he'll be crushed (if that happens, he becomes ethereal again until the opponent moves away, because it'd just be weird if Saishuu couldn't rip apart the opponent, but was still stuck in their body, causing them major organ damage anyway, I don't want a move quite that broken). There's also the fact that this ougi requires a hell of a lot of stamina and reiatsu to perform, and generally makes Saishuu exhausted afterwards.
And again, some people are just too smart or too fast for the move, and can avoid it in pretty much any given situation. It's an ougi designed for killing Hollow, not Shinigami, hence why he invented such a high risk move. Saishuu never uses it unless it's necessary though, it's a last resort due to such risks.

Shikai
Name: Zelistor
Length/looks: A Huge Silver Mace
Skill: Expand = Grows infinitely large as much as the user can Maintain. If the Mace becomes to big the use cannot wield it effectively as the weight will be to much and Shikai will be lost making the User VERY, VERY Vulnerable. Great at smashing and pulverizing. Can destroy most objects.
Protrude = The spikes grow and retract randomly Making for a dangerous Attack
http://www.weaponmasters.com/?ID=WEAPONS&ITEM=MR1-739
Release phrase: Destroy them Zelistor!
BanKai
Looks: The Mace Becomes a Hammer Turns Gold, Golden Armor embraces the user
Skill: The Bankai allows the user to grow and shrink at will( depending on their spirit level but has a maximum before the surface area isnt enough for the body to maintain homeostasis and the user dies) while still utilizing the abilities of the Shikai. The Armor Protects from Physical Attacks as long as the user can maintain Bankai. The only weak spot is the Head of the user. Also speed is dramactially decreased.
Release phrase: EMBRACE, HEED, AND SUBMIT ZELISTOR!
Ultimate Bankai - User returns to Normal and so does the Bankai except the mace is gold. This mace Is Indestructible in itself and lighter than its other forms thus the user can go at his normal Speed. This also increases the effects of the Shikai as it Is lighter thus can be made Bigger.
First Skill: Zelistation - Powers - Density Control: Allows the Shinigami to Control the Density of themselves. If this power ifs being used the Zanpakatou loses its indestructiblity but is still pretty durable
Second Skill: Embrasion - Allows the User to Essential Merge with Zelistor and Anyabilty aformentioned is able to applie to the User. Takes Complete Mental focus and while it doesnt drain spiritual energy it drains mental strength and can leave the user complete fatigued and unable to think at all for time depending on how long it was used.
Release phrase: Destruction mode Zelistor~

Just a personal thought I had.
I don't think anywhere in your abilities for your Shikai or Ban Kai should you be able to mention other Shinigami or Ban Kai.
Shinigami are meant to battle Hollows, their natural abilities should reflect this. Nothing in your sword should disable or protect your from the effects of other Zanpakutou.
Protecting you from the actual physical attacks of Zanpakutou is fine, but unless your base ability happens to work well against their specific ability, you can't do it. Saying it can protect you from Zanpakutou is so broad, it basically says "no matter what you come up with, I'm covered".

If what was protected by armor? The users armor disappears to form this ban kai, if you mean an opponent then no, but why would you use a Ban Kai like this unless you were sure you could penetrate your opponents armor?
To answer your question though, it depends on how the armor works (I don't want to god mod so I'll leave it to the other person), armor formed from Zanpakutou (like my first Ban Kai form) would be immune, armor formed from different techniques or from just energy would be drained.
Don't underestimate the scythe though, no non-ban kai armor would really have a shot at withstanding it (it IS a Ban Kai Supreme Form after all).

Hmm.. My new idea of a zanpakatou.. Do give your comments..
Sealed form: A short katana, used like a dagger (ie. close combat stuff like that)
Shinkai: Sword of Earth (translation please?)
Release: Hakke Kuchiyose, SoE
A rather fat sword, (in fact I'd call it a *broadsword*), around 1.2m and black in colour with a reddish glow. Speed is normal and attacks are stronger then normal.
The first ability it has is to rotate in front of the user, becoming the shield of the user from attacks. (Sword into shield) Another ability will be to convert to the Sword of Heaven.
Shinkai (Form 2): Sword of Heaven
Release: Hakke Kuchiyose, SoH
A sleek, all silver sword that is 1m long with a golden aura. The more offensive form of Shinkai, it's attacks are much like Silfaron (typo, i dunno how to spell it but for those who watch RAVE, it is the 2nd form of tcm). Speedy and shallow. One ability will be to convert back to SoE (of course). Another ability will be for it to disappear (becoming the spirit energy of the user) and reappear (forming the body of the sword again) at the will of the user. Thus the user will be able to throw the sword like a spear against his opponent, make it disappear and appear again on his hands. Something like that, but this form of the shinkai takes up more energy then the SoE.
Bankai: Sword of the Eight Trigrams.
Essentially like the SoH with the reddish aura of SoE, this sword is the more balanced one. It is not as speedy as SoH, nor as powerful as SoE. It's ability, however will be that the user of the Zanpaktou will be able to control the sword with a handseal through his mind over a radius of a mile. (a bit overpowered.. haha) This means that the user can be indoor while he goes on a killing spree outside.
Final Ability: Fate of the Trigrams.
All the spirit energy of the user and his immediate surroundings ( just around his body ) will be compressed into the sword, with the sword becoming bluish white. Then the user will be able to direct this energy to attack his opponent. After this attack, however, the Zanpaktou will revert to it's sealed form, and the user will probably faint or become very weak, as around 100% of his energy has been used up and he is like a soul without spirit energy, needing lots of rest

Sword of Earth could translate to many things, but I think the best one would probably be Tsuchi No Tsurugi. Sword of Heaven could be Ten No Tsurugi. Sword of the Eight Trigrams would be Hakke No Tsurugi. Fate of the Eight Trigrams would be Hakke No Unmei.

In terms of Ban Kai armor, it obviously wouldn't go through easily, it would probably either take several hits to the same spot or a combined attack from one or two of the figures on a spot to penetrate.
Also yours has a weak spot on the head, so that would be different.
In the end it would depend more on the difference in power between the users than anything else.

Neko Hanma Kin (I need some good Japanese transl. words to replace my english ones. Thanks ^_^b)
Length/Looks Neko Hanma Kin is a 3ft 2inch blade. The sword is ridged almost like scales. The hilt is shaped like a incomplete ying-yang.
Initial Release Embrace my soul Neko Kin - The soul cutter forms into a large black axe with an axe head on each end.
Neko Hanma's Heavenly Touch If this soul cutter touches an opponent's soul cutter, the opponent loses spirit power equal to the time of interaction multiplied by 1/5 of their total spirit power left. (i.e. souls cutters clash and cling together for 2 seconds, thus 2X20%= 40% of spirit power drained) The drain power increases the strength of the user equal to 50% of the amount taken.
Bankai The soul cutter splits into two hand-held axes. And summons up to seven cats to the area, however 3 is the prefered number that way one defends and two attacks. 3 feet 4 inches and are made entirely of dense spiritrons.
Phage of Heaven The cats can move with great speed, and accuracy based on how well the user can focus their attacks. However each cat needs a certain amount of concentration to command properly; but they are linked together by the user's spirit force, and can thus disassemble at a moments notice.
Final Skill The Seven Heavenly Embraces - The user must have all seven cats on the field, six of the cats disassemble and reassemble around the two axes, three to an axe. Each axe head increases in size to 4 feet 1 inch, and the handles increase proportionally. The last cat disassembles and fuses with the user's body to form a thick spiritron coat which encompasses the entire body in a black/darkblue glow. This coat protects the user from relatively strong blows and allows him to grip the large spiritron axe handles, but more importantly it makes the axes seem weightless to the user.
This has been edited from it's original form, tell me what you guys think. ^_^b
Skill Heavenly Vibration- This is the soul cutter similar to the hollow that had the ability to shatter soul cutters. Any soul cutter that this stikes is instantly destroyed. This can only be effective if your spirit power is equal to or greater then your opponents. This skill does not distinguish between enemies and ally soul cutters.yeah, I'm gonna give you the same preach several others here recieved from eh? Tsukiyomi or final Ultima
hollows fight shingami and hunt souls, so it's normal for them to develop a skill that eases their hunting and defends them against shingami...
shingami fight hollows, so it's normal for their soulcutters to ease their killing of the hollows.
Hollow-shingamis have special powers, like hide soul presence or destroy soul cutters...they are special... they do not count...

And The First Release isnt that strong It usually turns the sword into another weapon that has limited Effects

Thats different. Of course a huge bone demon/dragon like Renji's Ban Kai would work equally well on Shinigami or Hollows, but its intended to fight hollows.
Your abilities are specifically designed to battle other shinigami, they have abilities relating to other Zanpakutou or Ban Kai. You shouldn't do this because thats not how Shinigami powers are supposed to work.
Your shikai is horribly overpowered and is useless against hollows so it doesn't serve the purpose of a Zanpakutou. You drain power in increments of 20% from Zanpakutou.

I'm still going to add more detail, whenever I make up a character or story I have a habit of going overboard with descriptions and BG story.
As for the more than one Ban Kai form, personally I'm basing it off Byakuya. Byakuya said it takes atleast 10 years of Ban Kai training for you to master it enough to use in battle, indicating that he had truly mastered his Ban Kai.
His Ban Kai had three different forms, the first obvious one where he sends shrapnel through your body, the second where it forms the wall of swords and the third which is the final form he uses against Ichigo after his semi-hollow transformation.
This indicates Ban Kais have more than one form for someone who truly masters them, so I want mine to be like that.

Theres a link to the rest if you haven't read the first part yet.
Arashi No Sansatsu - (Three Deaths of the Storm)
Arashi Kyaria's true form.
The Gauntlets shatter and form a layer of seals over the boots. The boots now generate energy from the users body movements which can be harnessed to grant the user sudden bursts of great speed (not maintainable for more than a few seconds before more energy must be generated).
A thick mists eminates from the user, encircling them in the appearance of a tornado.
Three cloaked ethereal beings form from the mist, each different. Lets face it, storms can be among the most destructive and deadly forces in nature, so I created three figures representing the most deadly aspects of a storm.
Raiden[thunder, lightning] - the first figure formed, taking a place at the right of the user. Raiden is wearing a thick robe, carrying a black staff with a drum hooked around his waist.
Raidens eyes are always ablaze with a bright blue light.
Fujin[wind] - the second figure formed to the left of the user. A muscular figure wearing an open vest and hood. Long white hair pulled into a ponytail. Bright white eyes with no pupils.
Four bags are constantly on his back and a thick staff in his hands.
Taki-Tsu-Hiko[rain] - the third figure formed above the user, a plainly cloaked figure wielding no visible weapons.
After these figures form, a weapon is formed in the users hand. A long black smooth scythe, after the weapon is formed the users pupils extend making their entire eyes dark black.
Every second these figures are around, they slowly suck life force from the user, thus using this technique too long would result in death. The limit is believed to be just under a half hour before the user is too far gone to survive (this has obviously never been fully tested). After the technique is finished life force slowly returns to the user (recovery ranges from a day to just over a month depending how close to death the user came).
The user in most cases uses all three figures simultaneously to finish the opponent as soon as possible, but in some cases the user may only use one or two to conserve power.
Everytime the users scythe (the entire scythe not just the blade) makes contact with an enemies body (not Zanpakutou, yes it works through clothing, but not through sufficiently powerful armor) it siphons life force from them into the user (at a faster rate than the Ban Kai drains the user, this is to compensate for the constant draining), if they are killed with this weapon their entire life force will be siphoned the user. It is because of this that this Ban Kai is only shown to people the user is determined to kill at all costs, it has only been used a few times.
The scythe is able to break into three parts and extend (much like Renji's sword), the limit of its range is around 25 yards.
The three figures each have different abilities they use, the stronger the moves they use the faster they drain the user. Combination moves are also possible.
- Raiden - Raiden is able to send energy bolts at opponents, or sonic booms (from thunderwaves by beating the drums). Raidens key attribute is his speed.
- Fujin - the four bags on Fujin's back represent the Four winds, by opening them it is able to control powerful gusts of wind, if all four bags are opened the resulting wind is able to cut through objects like a knife.
Fuujin most often uses its fists to fight (to conserve energy) and this is almost always enough due to its physical power.
- Taki-Tsu-Hiko - Taki-Tsu-Hiko is able to control water at will, be it in the air or in the surrounding environment. The greater the amount of water controlled the faster the user is drained.
This figure has been known to form weaponry such as needles from water and impale targets onto them.
Combination Moves(once again, need translations, more moves coming):
'Barrier of the Raiden' - [Raiden and Taki-Tsu-Hiko]: Taki-Tsu-Hiko takes a place over the user, face down he slowly blows a fairly thick mist around the user (around meaning it doesn't touch the user). This mist extends for several yards in all directions (including up), with a foot of empty space around the user. Raiden then steps into the mist assuming a "praying" stance, he then eminates an electrical charge from the center of his being into the mist.
Anyone in the mist and not protected will be struck by this move.
'Kamikaze Eye of the Storm' - [all three figures]: the very last move a user of this Zanpakutou would ever use, it has yet to be used in battle. First the user assumes a "praying stance".
All three figures shoot skyward, disintegrating they form thick storm clouds stretching over a great distance. The user throws the scythe into the clouds, the boots on their feet disolve and go skyward as well.
A target appears on the users forehead, using this point as a center the clouds above solidify and as a slit slowly appears. As the slit opens a red eye is revealed looking straight down on the user.
The eye slowly begins to eminate a dull blue light as winds around the user begin reaching 20 mph.
In a single moment (less than a second) all the clouds are absorbed into the eye, a blast is sent downward towards the target on the users forehead.
The focal point of the attack is the area immediately surrounding the user with them at the center, the attack is spread over the entire 50 meters, anything in that range will be hit (the user included).
It is believed the user would have a natural resistance to the attack, but it is unknown wether or not they could survive this attack.
Even if survival is possible, the user would suffer massive damage. It would be totally impossible for the user to continue in the current battle.
---------------
I'm going to stick with one form, several forms is too hard to work with.
I'm going to instead focus on the final form, I want to add as many details as possible and give the figures interesting moves.
Suggestions are very welcome.

Zanpakutou’s name: Mizuki
Normal state: Like a lot Zanpakutou’s it is a plain katana a bit longer than 3 ft.
Skill: Like Ikaku I use the scabbard for extra defence. Also there is a sharp 2 inch tip on the end of the scabbard (wich can flip in and out) to make these annoying little wounds that will limit your senses and abilities.
Onto the scabbard there is mounted a small kunai holster holding 3 kunai which obviously can be thrown to do little damage but can again slightly disable abilities and senses.
Shikai1 release phrase: Awake, Mizuki
State: The shape changed, The 3 ft katana changed into an 12 feet No-Dachi with a dark curved blade.
In this shape speed is reduced, however reach and power are greatly increased. This blade will cut trough most objects but has difficulties with spirit energy reinforces objects.
Skill: After reinforcing it with huge amounts of spirit energy it can slice almost anything. Still has troubles with other zanpakutou
Shikai2 release phrase: Shout Mizuki.
State: The 12 ft blade breaks. Till I have a 15 inch ninja sword. The rest of the blade shatters into a great supply of high quality shuriken. Which are distributed over several holster on my body. My new blade is almost unbreakable. The decrease in length greatly increased my speed and with the new shuriken I can attack every opening.
Skill: The increase in speed made the ninja techniques possible. To catch you off guard. Your attention will drop after attacks with the shuriken meanwhile I’ll be behind you and cut your throat or some critical organs.
Bankai available in shikai 2
Release phrase: Hide Mizuki
This bankai resembles Genjutsu. By messing with my opponents senses I make them se things there are not and make myself invisible to his 5 senses.

Yeah I know, right now I'm just toying with ideas. Were we actually doing an RPG right now I would alter things to fit the established format of that game, anything I couldn't get to fit I would just get rid of.
Right now I'm just going to trash the first two forms of my Ban Kai and focus only on the last one, it seems more like a Ban Kai to me and seems like it would be much more fun to work with.
You're the only one here who has actually played through a Bleach themed rpg, any suggestions.

Name: Sukai (sky)
look/length etc: 16" catana, a little short, normal silver color but the scabbard is medium blue with a gold cap at the end and a gold ring around the top. nothing too fancy for and unreleased sword. only thing above average in this state is come good speed due to length
1st release: "Botsu, Sukai" (i think that's an ok translation, if there's a better, please let me know)
released: the sword stays the same length but the blade turns a metalic sky blue as does the hilt and the guard changes to gold. not only taht but the scabbard aswell changes to another identical blade. *thinks about leonardo from ninja turtles, lol*
what is gained from this state is the blades are lighter and stronger than before but more importantly each swing or slash of either blade emits a blue crescent shaped spirit energy bolt. the strength of the bolt is determined by the amount of spirit energy put into the attack and the speed at which it is swung.
yea thats all i got im an anime watcher so i duno what to think about bankai yet

I think a katana is the only standard state shape.
But when its released I want a pair of crescent shaped scythes connected by 2 chains to a long staff with a kuukaku cannonball attached to the other end.
the words to summon it will translate to: Massacre, Shadow Demon
Ability:
Defense: Turns the cannonball into a giant spherical sheild or can be used as a giant mace.
Offense: Extends/retracts both chains so two attacks can be simultaneous, somewhat like Ikkaku's except only one piece staff, and 2 weapons.
A nice one would be a 2 inch switchblade, that says: Scar the Heavens, Devil's Claw. That'd be fun, beating up Shinigami and Hollows with a pocket knife...
Or if i wanted a modern age one, it'd be a ballpoint pen, and says: Pass Judgement, Infinite Justice! And my Shinigami robe would be tailored to look like a business suit, and its normal form will look like a rapier instead of a katana.

No they can't control their sword, its made from their own spirit energy automatically, so the sword should automatically reflect them and who they are. Why would they need to design one when the sword is already built for them?

here's mine! (i really dont know much japanese, so if i'm wrong, correct me please!)
Name: Kurushimi (Anguish)
Appearance: looks like a normal katana,(how original!) but very dull. its about 3 ft long.
Shikai Release: Scream, Kurushimi!
Kurushimi's blade turns completely black, and loses its edge completely, but gains a powerful ability. Although it can no longer cut, it can control the sensation of pain in the enemy. All it needs is contact with the opponent's body, or weapon, and the user can cause them excruciating pain. Of course, the pain stops once Kurushimi isn't touching them anymore. The user's ability to sense pain also dulls.
Ban Kai:Engulf them in misery, Kurushimi!
Kurushimi grows 2 feet longer, and the rest of the sword turns black(the guard and the place where you grip it, i dont know what thats called.) Kurushimi no longer needs contact to inflict pain, and can do it with a swipe of the sword, wherever the user is standing. The pain in this form is mind-numbing, and does not stop until the user wills it to. The user also loses all sense of pain.
Purgatory: Kurushimi's ultimate move. The user lifts the sword in front of himself, and points it at the enemy. If the user draws a bead on his opponent for 5 seconds, the enemy is trapped in an illusionary world, where every second in the real world is a day in the illusion. The victim is then exposed to pain so intense that they cant even speak. This techniqe is quite powerful, and afterwards, the enemy is almost sure to be incapacitated. This also is very draining to the user, and afterwards, he usually is unable to fight after using this technique.

The user's ability to sense pain also dulls.
Wait so the user no longer feels pain, and any contact with an opponent or a Zanpakutou causes your opponent unbearable pain? Thats a bit much, nothing your opponent does can block your attack, and excruciating is a very strong word to use. It basically insinuates anyone who touches you will be totally incapacitated instantly.
Ban Kai:Engulf them in misery, Kurushimi!
Kurushimi grows 2 feet longer, and the rest of the sword turns black(the guard and the place where you grip it, i dont know what thats called.) Kurushimi no longer needs contact to inflict pain, and can do it with a swipe of the sword, wherever the user is standing. The pain in this form is mind-numbing, and does not stop until the user wills it to. The user also loses all sense of pain.
So now, its impossible to cause pain in the user, and you can cause your opponent unbearable pain at will? Thats waaay too godly, all you need to do is think and no one can stand up to you, and if by some act of god they do hit you, you won't even feel it.
Purgatory: Kurushimi's ultimate move. The user lifts the sword in front of himself, and points it at the enemy. If the user draws a bead on his opponent for 5 seconds, the enemy is trapped in an illusionary world, where every second in the real world is a day in the illusion. The victim is then exposed to pain so intense that they cant even speak. This techniqe is quite powerful, and afterwards, the enemy is almost sure to be incapacitated. This also is very draining to the user, and afterwards, he usually is unable to fight after using this technique.
Sounds like Itachi's Tsukiyomi to me. This is even more godly than the last move. It would be unbeatable, the energy drain isn't even close to enough of a counter on this one.

05-27-2005, 09:28 AM
woah, looking back, that is too much. i wasnt thinking of tsukiyomi at the time, but it sure sounds like it. yeah, this is going to need some serious revising. not trying to be god here. (i thought is was cheap too)
-Edit-
ok, after much revising and thinking, here's my new kurushimi.
Name:Kurushimi
Look:a katana(what else?)
Shikai:Scream, Kurushimi
Kurushimi's blade turns serrated, like a saw. Its coated with an irritant that burns on contact. This obviously causes any wound to hurt more.
Ban Kai: Fill them with pain, Kurushimi!
Kurushimi turns black, but keeps the serrated edge. The blade can now cause an intense amount of pain on contact with the enemy's body(not the sword anymore). The user has to be careful though, because if he touches it, it will also inflict the pain on himself. The sword boosts the user's speed a bit, and substantially decreases in weight.
Saw- User holds the sword horizontally, and makes a sawing motion. He then forces a large amount of spirit energy into the sword, sending out a sharp spirit force that can cut through tough obstacles/hollows.
so thats it. it isnt immortal by any stretch of the word now. but how can it kill hollows? still working on that. they are always in pain, so what good would it be? i'll think on it.

Ok, I'm late with this thign but here's mine.
Name: Ichiwa (One Harmony)
Length/looks: It's a short blade that has a one foot handle and a two and a half foot blade. Nothing too special about it.
Release Phrase: Grow Ichiwa!
It grows into a nodachi type blade. The handle is 2 1/2 feet long and the blade is 3 3/4 feet long. (It's taller than me! :D) The handle has black cloth wrapped around it tightly.
It is used for fast initial attacks and long reach. When swung at a hard fast pace, when it hits, it resognates causing the target it hit to shake. (Like a tuning fork does! The blade doesn't shake, the other thingy does. :D )
Bankai The blade stays the same lenght but splits into two blades (still one sword, just had two blades close together) It can shoot of sound waves which resignate a high pitch (C minor attack, go!) which, even with a succesful block, your ears may bleed. (Especially when it's out of tune. :xp)
*insert cool name here* The blade splits and causes the handle to be in the middle (5 foot handle, 6 1/2 blade all together)
I take the handle and spin it above my head at high speeds causing a tornado type effect. (It's really cool! Plus, it's musical, so it makes a pretty whistling sound too! :D )
....that's all I can think of right now.

One thing I've noticed in this topic is that many people think that these soul slayers are overpowered. I don't see how you can make this claim, considering our only official source of soul slayers is the manga, and anybody would be hard pressed to create soul slayers more powerful than Byakuya's, Azien's, Kira's (and I believe he only had a shikai hooksword; how powerful must his bankai be?), and Tousen's (blind guy?). I don't believe a sword that automatically causes pain would be overpowered in front of a sword that makes other swords unmovable (I'd like to see anybody wield 2 lb sword after its been hit a few times with Kira's soul slayer) or a soul slayer that dupes your opponent to seeing, feeling, touching, hearing, probably even tasting anything. And just because Zaraki took out Tousen so easily doesn't mean that Tousen's bankai isn't overpowered (what happened to Tousen's wounds?) In light of the manga's soul slayers, our swords are just not up to snuff.

Since we were originally discussing doing a Bleach RPG, we were speaking in terms of use in an RPG. None of the Bleach Captains swords would be used in the RPG so it wouldn't matter.
Also a sword is much more interesting when its balanced, because then the user needs to be creative to truly be good. Aizen's sword makes him a god, so you can't help but wonder what he's capable of without it.

Name: Ryoushin
Release: Rise, Ryoushin
This splits the original Soul Cutter into two peices. One piece grows to be a very long Katana, along the lines of 4 feet. The other peice shrinks to be a relatively short wakizashi.
The long blade allows for a powerful attack with decent range, but allows for little defense. This is because since the blade is so long, and one handed, it restricts defensive movements. This is where the short blade comes in.
The Short Blade allows the Shinigami to defend any attack that breaches the defensive radius of the long blade. This combination allows for both strong offense and defense.
The release of this Soul Cutter has one weakness. A Small Wakizashi cannot defend against heavy Soul Cutters with a lot of momentum.
Finally, the release of the Soul Cutter allows the user to levitate. This allows the user to overcome the large Katana's restrictions and gives the Katana's a full range of motion.
Bankai: By releasing Bankai, the User splits into multiple forms(Kage Bushin no Jutsu!). Yea, I know not original, but it works with the Soul Cutter Well. With this Bankai, the user is enabled to attack from multiple Vectors.
Well, there ya have mine. I feel it realy covers many weakness. A really Balanced Soul Cutter in my opinion. Not blantantly overpowered, but can handle most others :smile-big

ah now i got time to finish it
ok so my senkofumetsu released looks like a scimitar with tribal designs in fire red. it basically is half the weight and much faster to use and recover after an attack.
its ban kai is pretty much self explanitory but it opens the gates to hell and the devil is summoned(note this is illusion/fire mix so the devil isnt really the really devil) and charges at the enemy and explodes in a firey ball of fire.
my sword manipulates fire to take form of objects such as the devil in its ban kai.

Appearence: The hilt is similar to that in the Tenchi Muyo series. It has two beads placed on each side near the base of the hilt. And that's it, just a hilt.
Shika release phrase: Break their spirit!
Appearence changes, a small chain appears on the base of the hilt.
Ability: Able to make swords that are about 2 ft. long. Easily breakable. Swords made this way consume trace amounts of spiritual energy, nothing serious. In this form it can continue to make swords if one has yet to be made or one has been broken.
Second ability: Swinging the base of the hilt, the chain can be used to attack people from a distance. The chain can grow in size, but can not go past 10 ft. Can also be repaired, but it takes more spirit energy than to make a sword. Multiple chains can be made. The chain can also attach to the attacker.
Third ability: Using any broken parts of the sword on the ground (either sword or chain), the user can summon the pieces to him and use his enery to form the peices into a ball. When the ball shatters, it sends broken shards of the ball all across the arena. These shards have the ability to poison whoever they touch, so the user must be careful as well.
Ban Kai: Once Ban Kai is released, two orbs made of pure spirit energy hover near the user. Can be regenerated if one or both are destroyed.
All attacks and abilities in shika are avalable in Ban Kai.
Ability: Orbs can be used to attack or defend. However, both orbs must be used together for this to happen. When attacking, the orbs will fly towards the enemy and explode on contact. When defending, the two orbs will create a shield around the user, and then repel the attack. However, after either of these both orbs must be remade.
Final Ability: At least one chain must be attached for this to work. Once attached, the chains from the base of the hilt must then be attached to the user. After this, the chains absorb the energy of the two orbs and sends them at the attacker, ensuring accuracy. If the chains are cut, the orbs will fly out towards enemy in last ditch attempt to hit him. Also, the chains will begin to burn, damaging whatever part of the body they were attached to. (Ie. Attached to wrist, wrists will burn) This will slow reaction of whatever had been burned.
There, done. Could someone rate this thing for me? If there is going to be an rpg, I don't want this thing to be underpowered.

Hm... first try at anything like this:
Name: Fire of Lion
Release phrase: Burn their Hearts, and eat their Will!
Appereances: It is a nice long Katana without anything on it. It is not bended, but completely straight. At 2/3 of the blade their are 3 carves into the blade, like reversed spikes. In the blade their inscriptions of a tiger's head which hairs are made of fire. The blade is black for the most part.
The Blade is also double-egded.
Its abilities are that its is enormously sharp, and that I can hook other weapons with the carves, and then I can counter slice, cause its double-egded.
Ban-Kai phrase: The Flaming appereances of the Lion! Burn the fire out of their will! Release!
The Ban-Kai is an enormous blade attached to a Handgun.
Click here for pic (http://www.leonhart.co.uk/content/characters/img/squall/squall_5.jpg).
The Blade has a specialty of being able to use Spiritual Energy, the Energy attaches to the surfaces of the blade, thus glowing blue. The blade is capable of shooting out the energy through the gun, the same way as Ichigo. Also, because of the energy, its very sharp.
ps. don't count me in on the RPG :)

An update to my character's statistics, I decided to tweak with the unique Kidou a little, and I added the weaknesses to the Shikai and Bankai specific skills.
Character: Shirogami Saishuu
Rank: Ichibantai Taichou, Soutaichou
Kidou Learned:
All Hadou (100%) (Without Chant)
All Bakudou (100%) (Without Chant)
Unique Kidou:
Hijutsu: Shinsoku/Shinryoku Eikoudan
(Secret Technique: God Speed/God Strength Flare)
This is Saishuu's most commonly used Hadou, and was originally created to act as a very distinct signal flare, but was later discovered to be a very effective Hadou. This technique involves reiatsu being gathered at Saishuu's left hand and fired out as a powerful white or black bolt. This move is also commonly used to propel Saishuu at great speeds. The most unusual quality of the Eikoudan is the ability to relocate it's source point provided the new source point is solid. This kidou has two variations, Shinsoku Eikoudan and Shinryoku Eikoudan. Shinsoku Eikoudan can be performed a lot faster and moves a lot faster, but Shinryoku Eikoudan is much stronger, hence the names.
Kenjutsu: Shotengiri/Tengiridan
(Sword Technique: Rising Divine Slash/Divine Slash Bullet)
The blade of Saishuu's Zanpakutou gradually begins to glow as Saishuu focuses his reiatsu, up until the point in which it glows a blinding bright white. While the blade is in this state, its cutting strength increases by a large extent. When this glow is at it's maximum, Saishuu can either perform a rising slash called Shotengiri, or jump high up into the air, descend towards the opponent and then slash downwards at the last moment, which is known as Tengiridan. Another alternative is that Saishuu performs Shishunsatsu, but the glow is not a pre-requisite for this.
Kenjutsu: Shishunsatsu
(Sword Technique: Four Instant Death)
Within the blink of an eye, Saishuu slashes horizontally across the side of the opponent, creating four bright, flashes of light as he does so. Due to the flashes, it is impossible to tell at that point if the technique is a success or not. Saishuu sheathes Hayaichiame and counts to four. With each number, Saishuu's opponent suffers major damage.
"Ichi" - A delayed slash, blood spurts out from the opponent's right shoulder.
"Ni" - Another delayed slash, blood spurts out from the opponent's right knee.
"San" - Another delayed slash, blood spurts out from the opponent's left rib.
"Shi" - Saishuu's reiatsu crushes the opponent, then the slash splits them in two.
Shikai: Hayaichiame (Quick Blood Rain)
Release Phrase: "Split the sky, Hayaichiame!"
Appearance: http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM/WM-3095L1.jpg
Abilities:
A great increase in speed and strength.
Able to create Zanzou (after-images) by moving with great speed, at the cost of stamina.
Able to transfer consciousness to any of the Zanzou, at the cost of his health.
Skills:
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Satsugiri
(Shirogami Saishuu Special: Death Slash)
Saishuu creates two Zanzou that prepare to charge at the opponent and slash at them horizontally. If Saishuu chooses to, he can decide to send his consciousness to either of these Zanzou. If not, he repeats the process but at a closer distance and with a diagonal slash instead of a horizonal one. If he chooses not to send his consciousness to either of these, the original Saishuu appears and performs Kenjutsu: Shishunsatsu. However, the opponent must be fooled by the Zanzou for this skill to be effective.
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Tendoudan
(Shirogami Saishuu Special: Divine Punishment Missile)
Saishuu throws the opponent in the air, then fires his unique Hadou, Hijutsu: Shinsoku Eikoudan at them. As they are sent high into the air, Saishuu creates a Zanzou above them, and transfers his consciousness to it. The body that threw the opponent originally then fades away. Saishuu, now above the opponent, then kicks the opponent in the back with great force, sending them down to the ground. The weakness of this skill are that Saishuu must grab the opponent's legs to be able to throw them up into the air.
Bankai: Hayaichiame Zansatsu (Quick Blood Rain Massacre)
Appearance: http://www.weaponmasters.com/images//products/WM2005/WM-5000L5.jpg
User Appearance Changes: Saishuu is now dressed in his Ultima Saishuu attire.
(Anyone who's been in an RP with me before should be familiar with what Ultima Saishuu looks like. For those that don't know, he wears a red cap backwards, a red t-shirt with three slash marks across it, a black leather jacket with ripped sleeves on top of that, a white trenchcoat on top of that, denim blue jeans, white trainers and brown fingerless gloves.)
Abilities:
A greater increase in strength and speed.
Able to spawn Zanzou from his own body without moving, at the cost of more stamina.
Able to give all Zanzou physical form without transfering his consciousness, at the cost of his health.
Able to give his original body ethereal form without transfering his consciousness, at the cost of his health.
Skills:
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Zansatsugiri
(Shirogami Saishuu Special: Massacre Slash)
Saishuu performs the first stage to Satsugiri, but instead of creating an extra two Zanzou, the original Saishuu becomes ethereal and stands within the body of his opponent. Saishuu then creates six Zanzou that pull their upper half slightly from the original body whilst still sharing the same lower half of the original body. All six Zanzou become real at the point they slash the opponent, then as the six Zanzou become ethereal again and disappear, the original becomes physical again, ripping the opponent's body apart. The weaknesses of this skill is that not only must the opponent be distracted by the Zanzou in order to give Saishuu the opportunity to appear within the opponent's body, but if the opponent's reiatsu is too strong, Saishuu will be unable to rip the opponent's body apart, and will be crushed unless he is able to become ethereal again or transfer his consciousness in time.
Shirogami Saishuu Ougi: Chou Tendoudan
(Shirogami Saishuu Special: Super Divine Punishment Missile)
Saishuu throws the opponent into the air and fires a Shinryoku Eikoudan at them like the first stage of Tendoudan. However, instead of creating one Zanzou, Saishuu creates six, all of which having a physical body. The original Saishuu fades away. As the central Zanzou, now Saishuu's main body, throws his Hayaichiame Zansatsu at the opponent, the other five descend with their blades. The central blade hits the opponent in the back, then as the other five Zanzou stab down into the opponent's limbs and head, Saishuu kicks down into the hilt of the central sword, forcing it further into the back of the opponent. The opponent plummets to the ground, and the five Zanzou fade along with their swords, leaving Saishuu's main body stood on Hayaichiame Zansatsu's hilt. The weaknesses of this skill are that Saishuu must grab the opponent's legs to be able to throw them up into the air, and it is possible for the opponent to avoid the Hijutsu: Shinryoku Eikoudan, thereby giving them a chance to defend themselves against the oncoming stabs.

My Zanpakuto (I wish I had one) would be like this:
Shikai: Crimson Hephaestus
Phrase to Release Shikai: "Destroy and remold, Crimson Hephaestus"
Physical Description: A sledgehammer with a head covered in spikes, and a long steel handle, connected by 2 chains to a steel, clawed gauntlet. The gauntlet runs up the entire length of the arm, from fingertip to shoulder, and two rows of silver spikes wrap around the wrist. A spiked plate of steel covers the knuckles, restricting the hand from opening, while serving as both shield and additional weapon at the same time.
Abilities: Basically, Crimson Hephaestus, as the name it shares with the Greek god suggests, is mainly used to change and refine the properties of the four fighting styles of all shinigami, as well as Soul Cutters. It has two main abilities:
Meter of Ares: This ability is used through disconnecting the Hadou Lines, the chains that connect the hammer to the gauntlet, from the gauntlet. This forces the reiki of the user to flow forceibly into the gauntlet, granting them the ability to manipulate the reiki of other shinigami withing a certain area. For instance, the user can slow down the flow of reiki in a shinigami's body so that they can't use shikai or bankai effectively(or even cut anything with their Soul Cutter at all), or they can keep reiki from flowing out of the body, stopping their opponents from using Demon Arts. However, the effects of Meter only last as long as the user's reiki can sustain the field, so no one under the level of captain would be able to use it for over a minute--and the effects weaken as time elapses.
Cacophony of Athena: This ability is used through disconnecting the Hadou Lines from the hammer. Basically, it gives the user the ability to freely manipulate the balance between the four shinigami fighting styles; sword arts, hand-to-hand, footwork, and demon arts. This is possible because Crimson Hephaestus acts as the involuntary limt setter for the user, instead of the natural, permanent limits in each shinigami's hakusui, that, in theory, allow only a certain amount of reiki to each style. But Hephaestus' wielder, through Cacophony, can distort this balance to fit any situation. For example, if they were fighting Izuru Kira, and he used Wabisuke to weigh down the hammer section of Hephaestus so that it couldn't be carried, the user could perform Cacophony, stop using the hammer, and create a 33-33-33-1 "style ratio", sacrificing the reiki for sword arts to the other 3 styles. This, like Meter, also has a time limit.
Ban Kai: Hephaestus the Sole Godsmith
Phrase to Release Ban Kai: "Endow me with hammer and iron...Hephaestus the Sole Godsmith"
Physical Appearance: A medieval knight’s type of armor forms around the users entire body, along with a horse comprised entirely of steel, except for its mane and tail, which are both comprised of black flames. The same black flames seep out of all of the joints and openings in the armor. The hammer section’s head is no longer spiked, but doubles in size.
Abilities: In this form, all of the shikai abilities are available (though Meter’s effects don’t diminish with time limit, and Cacophony occurs faster and lasts longer), along with one more:
Bloodless Dirge of Hades: This allows the user to manipulate ANYTHING within a certain radius for the entire length of ban kai; that is, anything can be destroyed, repaired, or transfigured within the field, as long as that thing doesn’t have the reiki to resist. This means that anything with less reiki than the average 3rd or 4th seat shinigami can be killed instantly, while lieutenants and captains have some chance of resistance. Any nonliving object can be changed into any other nonliving object; for instance, air can be changed into a fully loaded gatling gun, if the user desires. The effectiveness of Dirge depends a lot on reiki level and imagination, and is nearly impossible to fight in the right hands. The drawback is that it causes the time one can sustain ban kai to decrease exponentially, and if ban kai is lost because of this technique, the damage to the user’s hakusui keeps them from ever using ban kai again.

Huh, ever notice how Gods Word? Godsword? lol. Anyhow. Rate it if you care to. And I also apologize at the destruction of the Japanese language.
Wielder: Kaosu, Junsui
Zanpakutou: Hanzatsu
Shikai: A tachi of about four and a half feet in length, and slightly thicker then usual, it is of more katana like curvature, with a solid black eliptical, with intricate carvings along its side, sides that continue to play into themselves, reiterating the same pattern down to the spiritrons, plays as tsuba, and a white hilt, decorated by a gold and emerald green pattern of similar intricacy as the tsuba's all until it is partly covered up at the bottom by a simple black cap.
Abilities: Hanzatsu employ the powers of space control with its own volume, meaning it can bend and transform at Junsui's will, with in the limits of its volume. Thus it can split, bend, twist, spiral, snake, and numerous other things with complete fluency and frightening speed. There is also the technique of Senshi no Anonimasu, the ability to bend the sword within a certain range of about nine feet, in and around space, by bending two points in space together, so that one may be be able to stab in multiple areas anywhere at anytime in a -near- instantaneous manor. This would be paralelled to shooting a gun, as while the action of gun is near instantaneous, it still has significant probability of missing, as one must sense the target, predict its movement, and make that action of the attack.
Bankai The blade takes cast a glistening gold, and lengthens by about six inches, and thickens ever so slightly, as the reverse side is intricately carved, the same fractal like patterns being etched to the smallest visible level. The sharpening pattern become equally complex, with swirls of swirls, into the infinitesimal. The hilt lengthens as well, the pattern growing even more complicated, as black is added to the the amagous ornantment of gold and emerald, as the simple balc cap, all but disapears.
Abilities: As to be it expect, the Bankai is swarming with power, as Hanzatsu now wields great control over the space itself, thus equipping itself with dangerous techniques. With a swing, he can send a thin spin of spiraling space, that spin spiritrons out of place, and out of structure, within the width of the swing, that goes for about a hundred feet or so. He can employ a technique called Shukuchi (You call it a rip off, I call it an allusion XD) in which negative space is created, thus suddenly closing the distance between his opponent and himself. Though obviously, the uses are many. It happens in an near instant, before recreating the distance there was. The ougi of Hanzatsu, Kyokuda Gotta no Aida, is the ability in which he drains himself of alot of spiritual energy, and creates of massive, projected space swirl, completely remixing anything its path, leaving it in the tiniest bits.

Night-Flyer
Shikai Phrase: Stalk them Night-Flyer
Description: Hovering circular disc, silver in color serrated edges along the edges radius of 2 feet.
Abilities: Controlled Mentally, Can seperate at will into a maximum of 25 discs each of which would be 1/25th of the original blade. The blade rotates at a speed of 1000rpm allowing to cut through most hollows. Using a special technique allows a user to ride the blade for mode of transportation
Bankai: Night-Flyer Mk II
Release phrase: ITS TIME TO FLY NIGHT-FLYER!
Description: Breaks into 4 more discs identical to the first except these 4 are golden while the first is still silver. the first disc stays under the user maintaining a levitating effect while 2 disc circle the user forming a barrier which blocks attacks and maintain a defence. The other 2 discs are for offensive and can break into 25 discs each all maintaining the same size.
Ultimate Bankai: All the 4 disc combine into one small frisbie like disc. who is now 100,000rpm. This disc Locks on to Spiritual energy that the disc last cut. So the disc of bankai had to hit for this to take effect. If this disc hits it will cut. Can only home for a limited time before losing the spirit signature and splitting back to the 4 golden disc.

Not bad, but you could probably make your Bankai a little more powerful, which is kind of funny. But otherwise, good job man,
Othni
06-17-2005, 02:08 AM
I'll make a second one, although I know I'd rather use my first one. :)
Sword Name: Zen
Looks like a scimitar. About 35 inches all together. 2 inches near the hilt and 6 inches at the end of the blade. Kinda looks like this except for the handguard:
http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y59/Othni/SD4161LL.jpg
Release Phrase: Burn with eternal light, Zen!
Sort of catches on fire but it's much brighter than any regular flame. The heat is almost a solid. When the flame extends away from the blade, it takes its own mass and creates an extention to the blade.
As the weilder swings the blade, the fire extends outword causing the blade to become longer.
For Protection, when an opponent throws a hard to block attack on the wielder, he spins the blade in a circle once (that's all he can do cause of the limit of the bending of the wrist) creating a shield for a short period of time. The shield has a 72 inch radius. (that's as tall as I am. 36 inch blade doubled twice is how you get that) but leaving the hand exposed because the handle is not on fire.
Ban Kai: Burn the ones in your path who dare challenge your might!
The flames burst all around increasing the weilder's spiritual pressure ten-fold. The weilder himself seems to be on fire with the sword burning ever brighter. The Sword is hard to focus on because of it's brightness. At night, it lights the whole area as if it were day.
With the increased spiritual force, even if you get past the sword, it is almost impossible to cut through the wielder's skin and even if you can cut the wielder, it won't be a clean slice through because of the resistance. Only a true fighter can cut through him as if it weren't nothing.
Welp, I think I'm done there. I hope you like it. ^ ^

Thx and I think my Bankai is strong enough. Some people go overboard with theirs. IF i were in a battle that Zankapatou would all I would need, Dont need to warp reality or destroy spiritual energy or increase speed.
Edit: and what I really like about this one is that it contains no weakness nor no need for weakness since it isn't overpowered. If something get's past the disc I am dead simple as that. No Increasing my auro or something like that.
