» Personality: Friendly & Helpful- Kenta his a very sociable individual. Before he left the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, he had many friends in almost every squad. The other Soul Reapers that were his friends say that Kenta was very charismatic guy, as well as a good listener, evident when his female friends came to him with their problems. Kenta would always stop what he was doing and listened to his friends complaints and confusion over a problem, then he either told how to fix the problem on their own, or he would go with them to the source of the problem, whether it be a crush they had, late paperwork, a sparring match, Jinzen, or Zanpakutō training, Kenta was always there.

His friends would also say that Kenta could make friends literally anywhere, ranging from the shy Squad 4 members, to the battle-crazed Squad 11 members, Kenta always had a few friends here and there. Kenta had an aura about him that just attracted people around him, and they weren't disappointed, they usually leave with a good friend, unless they were a bit too drunk to remember the encounter or they made an enemy of Kenta, which wasn't uncommon in most cases.

But, everyone has their limits of graciousness, Kenta is no exception. Kenta can't stand someone in pain, not only does it bring a cringe to his face, but he also gets a weird sensation in his head, like he is trying to remember something but can't, so Kenta just chucks that feeling into something that happened in his past life. When someone is in pain and there is no way that they could survive what was happening, Kenta will go out of his way to put them out of their misery, which some of his friends would say is the darker side of Kenta, because-again-Kenta will go out of his way to put them out of their misery.

Calm- Kenta usually has a calm look on his face, the only reasons why he wouldn't is if he's hanging out with his friends, or if he is fighting an enemy. Kenta's calm nature is infectious, his friends can vouch that whenever they were in his presence when they weren't doing anything active (i.e. reading, drawing, Jinzen, resting) they always became relax and calm. Friends that were distressed about something or someone usually went to him to help them with their problems, his calm nature helped them relax while he gave them a few pointers on things that they were having a problem with.

When Kenta is battling, his calm demeanor allows him to be able to observe his opponents movements and attacks, and act accordingly. But, like all warriors, he will soon drop his calm behavior when the battle starts dragging on for a longer period of time (5 posts), Kenta will then sport an aggressive posture and stance, and attacking without remorse. The upside is that he will know most of his opponents moves, but the downside is that he will soon start making rash decisions (attacking instead of blocking or dodging), or letting his guard down when he starts gaining the upper hand in the battle.

Intelligent- Kenta is a very smart individual. During his time at the Spiritual Arts Academy, Kenta graduated in the top 5 in his class, he was ranked 3 out of the 5. Kenta has an excellent memory, able to remember things that most Soul Reapers forget, their past life, well, some of it at the least. The only few things he can remember is his former apartment's address, his girlfriend Chizuru, and a tune to a song, but he can't remember the title. Kenta's memory doesn't just aid him in a passive way, but also in combat. Kenta is able to analyze the most smallest of details in an enemy’s form while they fight (ex: slight shifting of the eyes or feet, indicating faking one way and going another).

Kenta can process information faster than most Soul Reapers in combat. When fighting a rival Shinigami in a sparring match, Kenta could immediately see many flaws in his rival's style of fighting, stance, & footwork. Kenta does have his limitation like any other Shinigami in combat though. When encountering a enemy that either shows him no weaknesses in the way they fight & defend, making him think that he had the upper hand before striking him down, not giving him any time to analyze them, or changing the way they fought & defended against him (i.e. fighting style, stance, aggressive to defensive & vice versa).

» Zanpakutō Name: Eregantou~idōmēkā (Elegant Widowmaker)

» Zanpakutō Spirit Appearance:

» Zanpakutō Spirit Personality: Eregantou has some characteristics of a Noble, and some characteristics of Kenta. Like a Noble, Eregantou loves discussing many different subjects for a lengthy periods of time, especially about relationships, where she will start to fantasize about the whole plan, turning it into a cheesy romantic situation in her head, which is soon shot down by Kenta. Like Kenta, she is very war-oriented, catching details that Kenta didn’t and pointing it out to Kenta, but she will also become increasingly saddened and blinded by grief the more wounded he gets in battle.

Eregantou absolutely loves art, expensive jewelry & clothes, which is why she is usually gazing wondrously at the art on the walls & trying on the jewelry and clothes in Kenta’s Inner World. She loves all the art that is in her castle, but her top priority is always Kenta. The only time she doesn’t pay attention to all her art is when she wants to either teach Kenta a lesson, or when she wants to knock some sense into Kenta. For example, when Kenta wanted to learn Bankai, or when Kenta is being annoying in her opinion (i.e. being sulky or depressed).

» Inner World: Kenta’s Inner World is a giant castle, but mostly resides in the throne room. The throne room has very intricate and tasteful art on the walls, and shiny, amazing jewelry in display cases.

Sealed Zanpakutō Appearance: Eregantou~idōmēkā takes the form of a Japanese Wakizashi with ornate gold designs on the sheath and hilt.

» Release Phrase: Release your Fragrance

» Shikai Appearance: When Kenta wants to activate Shikai, he places his left hand along the blade, slowly moving it along the blade until he reaches the tip of the blade where he snaps his hand forward, then puts it back to his side. While he dragged his hand along Eregantou Idōmēkā, a sweet fragrance comes from her, this fragrance doesn’t have any effect on the battle in the slightest though, upon being asked by Kenta why she release a fragrance, she simply stated that it smelled nice.

Eregantou Idōmēkā takes the shape of a longer Hachiwara, a normal Hachiwara’s length is around 350mm long. Eregantou Idōmēkā’s length is 60 cm, fitting the length of a Wakizashi.

» Shikai Abilities: Knight’s Presence- Kenta activates Kishi no Purezensu by infusing his Spiritual Energy into his Zanpakutō, then slashing the ground in front or around him, or stabbing into the ground and waiting for his opponent to cross the line/hole (the slash or stab should be at least an inch deep or more). When they do, a giant arm of a knight, looking to that of a European knight’s arm and gauntlet, reaching from 2 to 6 meters hits the unexpected enemy with enough force to destroy 2 whole city blocks with one shot before rusting and then turning into dust.

This ability can be done multiply times, but it will start taxing Kenta’s Spiritual Energy, because it will start taking more energy to maintain than to actually execute it, especially when he is near death, or is having trouble keeping his emotions in check. (Can be used for 5 posts).

The Guard- Gādo is activated when Kenta stabs his Zanpakutō into the air, instead of hitting just air, it looks like he stabbed something visible (portion of blade that was used to stab seems to disappear), Kenta then sends pulses of his Spiritual Pressure into this “stab wound” before taking out his Zanpakutō. When Kenta takes his Zanpakutō out of the hole, the hole begins to glow white (the color of his Spiritual Pressure), then the hole shoots out 4 pieces of his Spiritual Pressure behind him, they then slowly take Kenta’s shape, growing and forming out his physical body.

After that process, Kenta will have 4 identical clones of himself fighting with him until they are defeated, or their time runs out (3 posts). The upside to these clones is that they act just like him in every way, but they are not as strong as the original, to put it in perspective, Kenta’s clones would have the Spiritual Energy & Pressure of a 3rd seat, while Kenta has the Spiritual Energy & Pressure of a Lieutenant. The clones are weaker then Kenta, but he can pump Spiritual Pressure into all of his clones, or one specific clone to beef them up. The clones can be eliminated through deep slashes in the torso, dismemberment, and decapitations.

» Bankai Appearance: In order to release Bankai, Kenta has to hold his arm out in front of himself, blade tip facing the sky, then he flips his Zanpakutō in his fingers to a reverse-grip, then places his left hand on top of his of his Zanpakutō’s hilt before saying, “Bankai!” Kenta’s White Spiritual Pressure explodes out into a 10 foot radius, before clearing out to reveal Roiyaru Mibōjin.
Eregantou Idōmēkā changes into Roiyaru Mibōjin. Roiyaru Mibōjin takes the form of a Katana mixed with a Scimitar, the hilt and cross guard being of Japanese design, and the black blade long and curved, reaching an approximate length of 76 cm long.

Kenta’s Zanpakutō Spirit also changes significantly, going from her cheery appearance, to a woman who has a deep sadness within her, hence her name. The art all in the castle also changes when in Bankai, going from Italian Renaissance artwork to Northern European Renaissance artwork, colorful to dark. Roiyaru’s mood changes to one of deep grief, like she lost someone important, donning much more darker clothing, she is also much more serious in her Bankai state, so she is more likely to criticize Kenta while he fights, no matter what he did.

» Bankai Abilities: The Queen’s Knight- Joō no Kishi is the upgraded version of Kishi no Purezensu with a lot of similarities. The only difference is that the ability takes more Spiritual Energy than in Shikai, and instead of just an arm appearing to help Kenta, a full knight-complete with ancient European knight armor & weapons-comes out of the earth. Joō no Kishi has twice the destructive power in Bankai then in Shikai, able to destroy half a giant office building. This ability is very useful in a battle, but the knight get progressively weaker when used again and again, it also takes a chunk of Kenta’s Spiritual Energy when used. (last 3 posts)

The Queen’s Guard- Kin’eihei is the upgraded version of Gādo. Activating Kin’eihei is the same as activating Gādo, only instead of 4 clones of Kenta, out comes 9 clones of Kenta, making 10 total Kenta’s.

The downside to this ability is that it takes more Spiritual Energy from Kenta than in Shikai, and the power differential is the same as in Shikai.

The Widow’s Grief- Mibōjin no Kanashimi takes the sorrow and sadness from Roiyaru herself, making it become solidified in the blade, making Kenta’s Zanpakutō glow a sickly white color. Kenta is able to utilize this move like the great Ichigo Kurosaki with a Getsuga Tensho, launching it at his enemy from a distance.

From a distance, this ability can destroy 2 houses and make a small crater. Kenta can also keep the energy within his blade, amplifying his attack power significantly. Its destructive power is able to topple an apartment building with one strike. This ability can be used repeatedly, but it can take some time to concentrate the attack to its full capacity, as well as taking considerable Spiritual Energy in order to use it.

» Inner Hollow Description: http://wershe.deviantart.com/art/Bleach-531-Black-hollow-372808514

» Inner Hollow Personality: Kenta’s Inner Hollow is called Xander. Xander mostly quiet, only expressing its opinions when it wants to. The only other time he talks is when Kenta is losing in a fight, belittling him, or teasing him when he is around an attractive girl. When Xander tries to take control of Kenta, his entire personality changes, he becomes sadistic and bloodthirsty, not caring what happens to himself or anyone.


If Kenta beats Xander, he will appear within the castle dungeons, vice versa if the hollow beats Kenta.

» Inner Hollow Powers: Black Cero- The Black Cero is what Xander utilizes in battle with relative ease. It takes a huge amount of Spiritual Energy to produce this devastating attack, and he can shoot the Cero out of many points of his body such as his hands, feet, eyes, mouth, horns, and hollow hole. In order to charge this attack, he must plant himself firmly into a solid state, because this attack has a very hard kickback.

Once the charge is complete, Xander releases a torrent of black energy at his enemies with enough destructive energy to annihilate 2 city blocks easily. Due to this moves destructive power, it can only be used twice, trying to use it a third or fourth time will damage Xander extensively, such as the Cero-literally-backfiring, destroying the appendage that the Hollow was concentrating the Cero on. (i.e. arm gets incinerated, leg explodes, front of face gets burned off, chest implodes.)

Quick Regeneration- Kenta shares in his Xander’s Regeneration. Like the name suggests, the regeneration is quick, but not as fast as other hollows, it is able to heal superficial cuts and bruises with ease and it can repair broken bones and ruptured organs, albeit at a slower rate.

How much Kenta or Xander has to spend his Spiritual Energy to fix a wound depends on the wound itself, if it’s a small cut or bruise, he won’t have to spend much, just a little bit. If the wound is significantly greater, such as a broken arm, or internal bleeding, Kenta or Xander has to spend a large quantity of Spiritual Energy in order to repair these bigger wounds.

This ability does become harder to use the more Spiritual Energy Kenta or Xander uses up in a battle, it will soon heal wounds at a slower rate, or it will cut off the pain receptors in the area of the injury so that Kenta or Xander won’t have to worry about it during fighting. For example, if one of Kenta’s or Xander’s arms were broken in 2 places, the regeneration would activate, realigning the bones, but instead of healing the bones, it will cut off all feeling in that area, effectively numbing it, then it will put some of the material that makes up the white part of a hollow’s body into the cracks of the bone to hold it in place so that Kenta or Xander could fight on. The superficial brace in the bone is stronger than normal bone, but it will still break, causing more injury.

» Vizard Powers: Strength- Kenta’s strength is increased to the point that he can punch through thick metal walls with little difficultly. (Lasts with the Hollow Control Racial Skill)
Stamina- Kenta’s stamina increases tenfold, with his hollow mask on, he can fight long after many Soul Reapers would call quits, estimating to be as long as 3-7 hours. (Lasts with the Hollow Control Racial Skill)

Speed- Kenta’s speed is increased to the point that he can go faster than a Captain-class Shunpo. His physical speed isn’t the only thing increased, Kenta’s reflexes are a lot quicker, able to react to a Captain-class Shunpo, with little difficulty as well as multiple bala’s in quick succession. (Lasts with the Hollow Control Racial Skill)

» Background: Kenta was born in the year of 1991, his father was a lawyer and his mother was a painter. Kenta was exposed to his mother’s art at a young age and loved every single one of them, he always loved to look at them in her painting room. His father always made sure Kenta went to the best schools and got the best tutors for his education. Kenta and his father’s relationship lessened, because his father always made his life choices for him, Kenta’s father wanted Kenta to go into Law and become a lawyer, Kenta wanted to become an artist like his mother.

Kenta wouldn’t admit it to his Dad, but what he did make Kenta a lot smarter than most of his peers at school, so that’s one thing Kenta could thank his father for. At the age of 17, Kenta was accepted into Karakura University, majoring in art and business. While attending, Kenta was regarded as a very bright student, surpassing his peers and become #1 in his classes grade wise and he got into the top #5 for his GPA, ranking #3. During his time in college, he met his girlfriend Chizuru, they dated for a year before…doing the deed. When Chizuru told Kenta that she was with child, it made the 20 year old want to become greater than he already was to provide for her and his unborn child, his first order of business was for Chizuru and himself the move in together in a middle-class apartment where they lived during college, and after they graduated as the “Class of 2011.”

Kenta went on to become a famous artist, constantly on the move from gallery to gallery in different cities and countries. Chizuru was going to become a retail agent after her pregnancy, so for now she stayed at home. When Kenta was 21, Chizuru went into labor and was sent to Karakura Hospital and her contractions lasted over 8 hours, Kenta could only sit there by her side, unable to relieve her pain, it broke him. After many painful hours for the both of them, their daughter was born, she was named Naomi. Life progressed as it used to for Kenta, with the exception that he was a family man now, his relationship with his father had improved after he graduated, his mother was very proud of him, Chizuru was waiting for Kenta to propose, and Naomi had turned 3 years old.

In the year of 2015, on a rainy day, Kenta was driving along the highway to get home for his daughter’s 3rd birthday, when a drunk driver smashed into his car, breaking multiple bones, and stabbing many organs with those bones in Kenta’s body on impact, but unfortunately, Kenta stayed alive for 10 minutes before dying. Kenta later woke up on the street, at first he thought that he survived until he faced the scene that showed his mangled body in his car, and the car that crashed into him, Kenta also found a long, broken chain connected to his chest, upon pulling it gave him great pain.

After a few days, Kenta came to his own funeral and saw just about everyone he knew, his mom, his dad, Chizuru, and his daughter, Naomi. He watched them all sobbing about his death when he heard a bone chilling roar, afraid, Kenta soon started running away from what he would soon find out being a Hollow. A few years after his funeral, Kenta’s chain went from the middle of his thighs, to above his bellybutton, he was again running away from a group of Hollows when 2 figures, cloaked in black take out Japanese designed swords and eliminate the Hollows. One of the black cloaked figures then performs a Konsō and sends him to the Soul Society.

Kenta woke up in Rukon District 55 in the Soul Society with no recollection of his past life but a few things his former apartment's address, his girlfriend Chizuru, and a tune to a song, but he can't remember the title. For many years Kenta endured the hardships of being in one of the fiftieth districts, wearing ripped and dirty clothes day in day out, trying to find a decent place to stay, not getting mugged, etc. The one thing that Kenta had that others didn’t was Spiritual Pressure, and Kenta had a lot of it, he was able to make an energy ball the size of a baseball. Following the advice of many other Rukon inhabitants, Kenta ventured to the Shinigami Academy to enroll and become a Shinigami.

Like when he was alive, Kenta excelled in all his classes, quickly rising up to an early graduation, granting him his Zanpakutō, and a place within the Stealth Force as an 8th seat. Over the course of the his time within Squad 2 Kenta made a lot of friends and had a few intimate relationships, all of them ending on good terms, Kenta’s Shunpo and Hakudo skills increased greatly thanks to friendly sparring and training, and Kenta rose up to become the 3rd seat of Squad 2 for a time, by now Kenta learned his Zanpakutō’s name. Soon Kenta got a request to join Squad 8 as the 2nd seated officer, after some discussion with the Squad 2 Captain about his decision, Kenta joined Squad 8 as the Lieutenant, quickly making friends in Squad 8. Few years after becoming a Lieutenant, a member of Squad 12 accidently released a disease that made Soul Reapers into Vizards, many Soul Reapers were infected in the process, and Kenta was one of them.

Many of the Soul Reapers that became Vizards lost control and became full-blown hollows, they were later destroyed, but there were a few Soul Reapers did actually become Vizards, and to avoid any more casualties, the newly made Vizards were exiled from the Soul Society, and Kenta was among them.

Now Kenta is on his own.

» Role Play Sample: Deep within the barren lands of what was once a thriving ecosystem, a man stood upon a hill, looking out beyond the sheer decay and dryness of the land. Kenta breathed in the humid air, “Looks like it’s going to rain soon,” Kenta said to particularly no one from someone else’s perspective, “Rain?! Argh! I hate the rain!” Eregantou complained, “It makes everything all dirty and mucky…” she trailed off, ” and dirty,” Eregantou repeated. “You said ‘dirty’ twice,” Kenta told his Zanpakutō, “Do you have any other words in your vocabulary?” Kenta teased, “Idiot,” she retorted, blushing like a schoolgirl.
Kenta soon heard the distant angry of the sky, “It is going to storm for a while,” Kenta observed, “Probably for a few days,” Eregantou regained her composure, [color = red] “I miss the Soul Society,” her gaze looking out one of the big windows in her castle in Kenta’s Inner World. “Well, this is our life now, we have to make the most of it,” Kenta finished with a somber tone before disappearing from view and reappearing several distances away before disappearing again in 2 seconds before the first raindrop fell.
As Kenta sped through the barren wasteland, someone less desirable started to speak, “…the rain,” Xander stated, the chains firmly connected to his wrists in Eregantou’s Castle Dungeon. “Yeah, Xander, it’s raining,” Kenta told Xander, Kenta didn’t really feel like talking to his Hollow right now, but since he had some distance to go, he would have to bear with it. “The rain brings back many things,” Xander let the words slowly roll out of his skeletal mouth, “You are really cryptic and creepy when you talk like that!” Eregantou told Xander, “The only thing that the rain brings me is a trip back to my makeup room,” Eregantou looked out one of her castle’s window in disgust. “You know that it’s sunny right now, right?” Kenta questioned his Zanpakutō, “And you don’t have a makeup room, I’ve check, several times,” Kenta told his sword, “Well, it’s somewhere you won’t find it,” the sword said back. “Anyways, what did you mean by ‘the rain brings back many things’ Xander?” Kenta questioned the Hollow, “Death,” Xander answered before closing himself off in the Dungeon, ‘Death?’ Kenta kept that thought in his head for a while before discarding it when he started to come upon civilization.

When Kenta takes his Zanpakutō out of the hole, the hole begins to glow white (the color of his Spiritual Pressure), then the hole shoots out 4 pieces of his Spiritual Pressure behind him, they then slowly take Kenta’s shape, growing and forming out his physical body.

After that process, Kenta will have 4 identical clones of himself fighting with him until they are defeated, or their time runs out (3 posts). The upside to these clones is that they act just like him in every way, but they are not as strong as the original, to put it in perspective, Kenta’s clones would have the Spiritual Energy & Pressure of a 3rd seat, while Kenta has the Spiritual Energy & Pressure of a Lieutenant. The clones are weaker then Kenta, but he can pump Spiritual Pressure into all of his clones, or one specific clone to beef them up. The clones can be eliminated through deep slashes in the torso, dismemberment, and decapitations.

» Bankai Appearance: In order to release Bankai, Kenta has to hold his arm out in front of himself, blade tip facing the sky, then he flips his Zanpakutō in his fingers to a reverse-grip, then places his left hand on top of his of his Zanpakutō’s hilt before saying, “Bankai!” Kenta’s White Spiritual Pressure explodes out into a 10 foot radius, before clearing out to reveal Roiyaru Mibōjin.
Eregantou Idōmēkā changes into Roiyaru Mibōjin. Roiyaru Mibōjin takes the form of a Katana mixed with a Scimitar, the hilt and cross guard being of Japanese design, and the black blade long and curved, reaching an approximate length of 76 cm long.

Kenta’s Zanpakutō Spirit also changes significantly, going from her cheery appearance, to a woman who has a deep sadness within her, hence her name. The art all in the castle also changes when in Bankai, going from Italian Renaissance artwork to Northern European Renaissance artwork, colorful to dark. Roiyaru’s mood changes to one of deep grief, like she lost someone important, donning much more darker clothing, she is also much more serious in her Bankai state, so she is more likely to criticize Kenta while he fights, no matter what he did.

» Bankai Abilities: The Queen’s Knight- Joō no Kishi is the upgraded version of Kishi no Purezensu with a lot of similarities. The only difference is that the ability takes more Spiritual Energy than in Shikai, and instead of just an arm appearing to help Kenta, a full knight-complete with ancient European knight armor & weapons-comes out of the earth. Joō no Kishi has twice the destructive power in Bankai then in Shikai, able to destroy half a giant office building. This ability is very useful in a battle, but the knight get progressively weaker when used again and again, it also takes a chunk of Kenta’s Spiritual Energy when used. (last 3 posts)

The Queen’s Guard- Kin’eihei is the upgraded version of Gādo. Activating Kin’eihei is the same as activating Gādo, only instead of 4 clones of Kenta, out comes 9 clones of Kenta, making 10 total Kenta’s.

The downside to this ability is that it takes more Spiritual Energy from Kenta than in Shikai, and the power differential is the same as in Shikai.

The Widow’s Grief- Mibōjin no Kanashimi takes the sorrow and sadness from Roiyaru herself, making it become solidified in the blade, making Kenta’s Zanpakutō glow a sickly white color. Kenta is able to utilize this move like the great Ichigo Kurosaki with a Getsuga Tensho, launching it at his enemy from a distance.

From a distance, this ability can destroy 2 houses and make a small crater. Kenta can also keep the energy within his blade, amplifying his attack power significantly. Its destructive power is able to topple an apartment building with one strike. This ability can be used repeatedly, but it can take some time to concentrate the attack to its full capacity, as well as taking considerable Spiritual Energy in order to use it.

» Inner Hollow Description: http://wershe.deviantart.com/art/Bleach-531-Black-hollow-372808514

» Inner Hollow Personality: Kenta’s Inner Hollow is called Xander. Xander mostly quiet, only expressing its opinions when it wants to. The only other time he talks is when Kenta is losing in a fight, belittling him, or teasing him when he is around an attractive girl. When Xander tries to take control of Kenta, his entire personality changes, he becomes sadistic and bloodthirsty, not caring what happens to himself or anyone.


If Kenta beats Xander, he will appear within the castle dungeons, vice versa if the hollow beats Kenta.

» Inner Hollow Powers: Black Cero- The Black Cero is what Xander utilizes in battle with relative ease. It takes a huge amount of Spiritual Energy to produce this devastating attack, and he can shoot the Cero out of many points of his body such as his hands, feet, eyes, mouth, horns, and hollow hole. In order to charge this attack, he must plant himself firmly into a solid state, because this attack has a very hard kickback.

Once the charge is complete, Xander releases a torrent of black energy at his enemies with enough destructive energy to annihilate 2 city blocks easily. Due to this moves destructive power, it can only be used twice, trying to use it a third or fourth time will damage Xander extensively, such as the Cero-literally-backfiring, destroying the appendage that the Hollow was concentrating the Cero on. (i.e. arm gets incinerated, leg explodes, front of face gets burned off, chest implodes.)

Quick Regeneration- Kenta shares in his Xander’s Regeneration. Like the name suggests, the regeneration is quick, but not as fast as other hollows, it is able to heal superficial cuts and bruises with ease and it can repair broken bones and ruptured organs, albeit at a slower rate.

How much Kenta or Xander has to spend his Spiritual Energy to fix a wound depends on the wound itself, if it’s a small cut or bruise, he won’t have to spend much, just a little bit. If the wound is significantly greater, such as a broken arm, or internal bleeding, Kenta or Xander has to spend a large quantity of Spiritual Energy in order to repair these bigger wounds.

This ability does become harder to use the more Spiritual Energy Kenta or Xander uses up in a battle, it will soon heal wounds at a slower rate, or it will cut off the pain receptors in the area of the injury so that Kenta or Xander won’t have to worry about it during fighting. For example, if one of Kenta’s or Xander’s arms were broken in 2 places, the regeneration would activate, realigning the bones, but instead of healing the bones, it will cut off all feeling in that area, effectively numbing it, then it will put some of the material that makes up the white part of a hollow’s body into the cracks of the bone to hold it in place so that Kenta or Xander could fight on. The superficial brace in the bone is stronger than normal bone, but it will still break, causing more injury.

(Lasts with the Hollow Control Racial Skill)

» Background: Kenta was born in the year of 1991, his father was a lawyer and his mother was a painter. Kenta was exposed to his mother’s art at a young age and loved every single one of them, he always loved to look at them in her painting room. His father always made sure Kenta went to the best schools and got the best tutors for his education. Kenta and his father’s relationship lessened, because his father always made his life choices for him, Kenta’s father wanted Kenta to go into Law and become a lawyer, Kenta wanted to become an artist like his mother.

Kenta wouldn’t admit it to his Dad, but what he did make Kenta a lot smarter than most of his peers at school, so that’s one thing Kenta could thank his father for. At the age of 17, Kenta was accepted into Karakura University, majoring in art and business. While attending, Kenta was regarded as a very bright student, surpassing his peers and become #1 in his classes grade wise and he got into the top #5 for his GPA, ranking #3. During his time in college, he met his girlfriend Chizuru, they dated for a year before…doing the deed. When Chizuru told Kenta that she was with child, it made the 20 year old want to become greater than he already was to provide for her and his unborn child, his first order of business was for Chizuru and himself the move in together in a middle-class apartment where they lived during college, and after they graduated as the “Class of 2011.”

Kenta went on to become a famous artist, constantly on the move from gallery to gallery in different cities and countries. Chizuru was going to become a retail agent after her pregnancy, so for now she stayed at home. When Kenta was 21, Chizuru went into labor and was sent to Karakura Hospital and her contractions lasted over 8 hours, Kenta could only sit there by her side, unable to relieve her pain, it broke him. After many painful hours for the both of them, their daughter was born, she was named Naomi. Life progressed as it used to for Kenta, with the exception that he was a family man now, his relationship with his father had improved after he graduated, his mother was very proud of him, Chizuru was waiting for Kenta to propose, and Naomi had turned 3 years old.

In the year of 2015, on a rainy day, Kenta was driving along the highway to get home for his daughter’s 3rd birthday, when a drunk driver smashed into his car, breaking multiple bones, and stabbing many organs with those bones in Kenta’s body on impact, but unfortunately, Kenta stayed alive for 10 minutes before dying. Kenta later woke up on the street, at first he thought that he survived until he faced the scene that showed his mangled body in his car, and the car that crashed into him, Kenta also found a long, broken chain connected to his chest, upon pulling it gave him great pain.

After a few days, Kenta came to his own funeral and saw just about everyone he knew, his mom, his dad, Chizuru, and his daughter, Naomi. He watched them all sobbing about his death when he heard a bone chilling roar, afraid, Kenta soon started running away from what he would soon find out being a Hollow. A few years after his funeral, Kenta’s chain went from the middle of his thighs, to above his bellybutton, he was again running away from a group of Hollows when 2 figures, cloaked in black take out Japanese designed swords and eliminate the Hollows. One of the black cloaked figures then performs a Konsō and sends him to the Soul Society.

Kenta woke up in Rukon District 55 in the Soul Society with no recollection of his past life but a few things his former apartment's address, his girlfriend Chizuru, and a tune to a song, but he can't remember the title. For many years Kenta endured the hardships of being in one of the fiftieth districts, wearing ripped and dirty clothes day in day out, trying to find a decent place to stay, not getting mugged, etc. The one thing that Kenta had that others didn’t was Spiritual Pressure, and Kenta had a lot of it, he was able to make an energy ball the size of a baseball. Following the advice of many other Rukon inhabitants, Kenta ventured to the Shinigami Academy to enroll and become a Shinigami.

Like when he was alive, Kenta excelled in all his classes, quickly rising up to an early graduation, granting him his Zanpakutō, and a place within the Stealth Force as an 8th seat. Over the course of the his time within Squad 2 Kenta made a lot of friends and had a few intimate relationships, all of them ending on good terms, Kenta’s Shunpo and Hakudo skills increased greatly thanks to friendly sparring and training, and Kenta rose up to become the 3rd seat of Squad 2 for a time, by now Kenta learned his Zanpakutō’s name. Soon Kenta got a request to join Squad 8 as the 2nd seated officer, after some discussion with the Squad 2 Captain about his decision, Kenta joined Squad 8 as the Lieutenant, quickly making friends in Squad 8. Few years after becoming a Lieutenant, a member of Squad 12 accidently released a disease that made Soul Reapers into Vizards, many Soul Reapers were infected in the process, and Kenta was one of them.

Many of the Soul Reapers that became Vizards lost control and became full-blown hollows, they were later destroyed, but there were a few Soul Reapers did actually become Vizards, and to avoid any more casualties, the newly made Vizards were exiled from the Soul Society, and Kenta was among them.

Now Kenta is on his own.

» Role Play Sample: Deep within the barren lands of what was once a thriving ecosystem, a man stood upon a hill, looking out beyond the sheer decay and dryness of the land. Kenta breathed in the humid air, “Looks like it’s going to rain soon,” Kenta said to particularly no one from someone else’s perspective, “Rain?! Argh! I hate the rain!” Eregantou complained, “It makes everything all dirty and mucky…” she trailed off, ” and dirty,” Eregantou repeated. “You said ‘dirty’ twice,” Kenta told his Zanpakutō, “Do you have any other words in your vocabulary?” Kenta teased, “Idiot,” she retorted, blushing like a schoolgirl.
Kenta soon heard the distant angry of the sky, “It is going to storm for a while,” Kenta observed, “Probably for a few days,” Eregantou regained her composure, [color = red] “I miss the Soul Society,” her gaze looking out one of the big windows in her castle in Kenta’s Inner World. “Well, this is our life now, we have to make the most of it,” Kenta finished with a somber tone before disappearing from view and reappearing several distances away before disappearing again in 2 seconds before the first raindrop fell.
As Kenta sped through the barren wasteland, someone less desirable started to speak, “…the rain,” Xander stated, the chains firmly connected to his wrists in Eregantou’s Castle Dungeon. “Yeah, Xander, it’s raining,” Kenta told Xander, Kenta didn’t really feel like talking to his Hollow right now, but since he had some distance to go, he would have to bear with it. “The rain brings back many things,” Xander let the words slowly roll out of his skeletal mouth, “You are really cryptic and creepy when you talk like that!” Eregantou told Xander, “The only thing that the rain brings me is a trip back to my makeup room,” Eregantou looked out one of her castle’s window in disgust. “You know that it’s sunny right now, right?” Kenta questioned his Zanpakutō, “And you don’t have a makeup room, I’ve check, several times,” Kenta told his sword, “Well, it’s somewhere you won’t find it,” the sword said back. “Anyways, what did you mean by ‘the rain brings back many things’ Xander?” Kenta questioned the Hollow, “Death,” Xander answered before closing himself off in the Dungeon, ‘Death?’ Kenta kept that thought in his head for a while before discarding it when he started to come upon civilization.
