» Appearance Written:

Four Legendary B's "Blonde, Breathtaking, Beauty and Body": From the long golden locks running down her back to the perfectly slender smooth legs, fans from around the globe would gather to catch a glimpse of the princess. Her hair was as whimsical and free as she seemed to be. Her beautiful golden hair could be described as "warm, wisps of golden wind". Unfortunately, she isn't a fan of how free her hair is, so when not performing she ties her hair up in a tight high ponytail. Her cheekbones are high and her lips bright-pink and full. Her face would have the entire stadium mesmerized by her beauty. She stands at 5'7" or 170cm, in heels of course, but standing taller than most women she has always "stood-out" (pun-intended). It was definitely not hard for her to charm men without even trying. Being well-endowed her body has always garnered attention (sometimes not always wanted). Whether blessing or curse, Sophia's beauty was indescribable through words.

Icy Blue/Warm Golden Eyes: An astounding feature of Sophia is her eye color. In a calm and relaxed state her eyes are an icy blue. Her icy blue eyes were a testament to her cool personality off stage. She takes business and work very seriously. Rumors of working with her, whispered that she wasn't just a princess but an "ice princess". A term used for female pop stars that have a cold demeanor and tend to be difficult to work with. But those who are close with Sophia know that her business personality is completely opposite of who she is. Her warm golden eyes appeared on stage or when she was having any sort of fun. Her eyes are extremely expressive and bright. Sophia's eyes were treasures to her fans. As they even had "teams", titled, "Team Ice Princess" and "Team Princess of Gold" where they would debate which personality they liked of hers the best.

Voice of an Angel/Siren: Opera, pop, alternative, jazz. Music escaping the lips of Sophia was magical. Singing countless genres of music since she was little, she was always able to captivate the audience. Her voice would echo through the halls of her meager home and in her near-future, stadiums and arenas packed with screaming fans. From soft and sweet to rough and deep, her voice would tantalize the audience with dreams of finding love or bring tears to their eyes with ballads of heartbreak. Her fans described her voice as having the voice of an angel. Her voice would bring men to their knees and her fans jumping of their seats. When hearing her sing, women would have to tear their men away from speakers, as if she was singing a "Siren's call"

»II. Personality

»Dedicated, Hardworking, Analytical

Sophia taking a mid-day nap from exhaustion, while making designs for her next outfit.

Sophia is extremely dedicated to her craft. Whether it be zanjustsu, kido, physical training, combat training and even her singing, she doesn't give less than 100%. Sophia works until every muscle and bone in her body is aching and sore. When she was still in the human world, as a pop star, she would have 12 hour dance rehearsals following 6 hours singing rehearsals. She would pour all her effort, heart and soul, into anything she does. A testament to this, is when she sprained her ankle during a performance, and still finished the concert. She's often seen napping or catching up on some sleep. Outsiders would make the mistake of thinking she does nothing but nap, but they're actually quite wrong. She devotes every moment for perfection. If she isn't reaching her peak performance, she'll keep repeating the same note, strike, spell, incantation or ability until perfectly executed. She's extremely dedicated in battle, some people who've seen her fight were amazed by the endurance she had.

»Calm, Lazy, Hates Heat

Sophia has a calm and cool demeanor most of the time and although she is Dedicated, Hardworking, and Analytical, she does appreciate a good day-off. On those days off, everyone better be on their best behavior. Although, she doesn't really let much affect her attitude, she does have a temper. In contrast to her hardworking personality style, she definitely can be a home-body. She often prefers to spend her days off staying in and doesn't like doing much on days that don't require it. Sophia is very cold-weather adapted and absolutely hates the heat. She's even known to abstain from her important duties if things aren't kept at a breezy 70 degrees (Fahrenheit). On hot summer days, you'll usually find her in front of a fan on full blast, trying to escape the heat.

»Caring and Nurturing

Sophia patching up wounds at her local hospice when she was still living

Caring and nurturing are personality archetypes that Sophia embodies. Always trying to help people, she used to volunteer at hospitals, homeless shelters and emergency care facilities. She's always concerned for the well-being of others, even to a fault. Donating food, money, and time were things that she constantly did during her time off her tours. She would use money she garnered as a pop star to help fundraiser homes, water purifying facilities and many other philanthropic endeavors. She was training to be an emergency room nurse before her rise to stardom, so she offered basic first aid lessons at her youth center. She believes that everyone should have the ability to help and care for another.

»Patient and Sadistic

Sophia slightly excited by finally drawing her opponent's blood, in battle.

When not in battle, Sophia is one of the kindest people you'll meet. She's extremely patient and has a lot of heart. She'll work with someone non-stop until they get it right. This patience also applies to battle. In battle, she lives for the fight and the danger of it. This is a stark contrast to her usual personality quirks. Although she is caring and nurturing, in battle she is tough and relentless. She will battle until the opponent is on their knees begging to be slain. She gets enjoyment out of defeating her opponents slowly. Often in battle she assumes a defensive posture, letting her opponent exhaust their offenses. Then slowly she begins to inflict damage and pain. Until she is satisfied with your punishment, she won't stop. Although she has a thirst for blood, she does her best to keep it hidden. When threatened with a blade, however, she's soon shivering with excitement to kill.

» Trusting but Unforgiving

Sophia is definitely one to meet people with an open heart. She's always been very kind and lives her life with her heart on her sleeve. She's willing to let you in and trust you. Sophia has always given people the benefit of the doubt. Although this may seem naive, Sophia is definitely aware that people can mistrustful. This leads to her relentless unforgiving coldness. When her fans call her "The Ice Princess" it was no joke. She can be cold and uninviting, if you've ever done something to betray her. After the events with her family, she hadn't spoke to her father in 6 years. Even then, she still wasn't ready to forgive him. Yes, Sophia is willing to give individuals the benefit of the doubt. But the moment you betray her trust, you are as good dead as to her.

»Diskes:
Hot weather, humid weather, people who leave doors open, bitter food, vegetables, sore throats, and being sick.

»III.History

» Her First Breaths

Inhale. Exhale. Just breathe. Sophia's mother embraced her. From her very first breaths, Sophia brought warmth to everyone around her. Her mother knew from the start that her daughter had a good heart. Not a very difficult child, she was well behaved and did everything her parents asked for. Sophia is of half-American and half-Japanese heritage. Sophia's childhood could be viewed as any ordinary kid's, stable household and stable income. Until at a fairly young age, because of financial issues, her family relocated to Japan. This took a toll on her family, her father's pride was struck having to relocate and he became a drunkard. That didn't really change her optimistic view on life. Sophia's mother did her best to shield her children from the hardships their family faced. No matter what they faced and what they experienced, Sophia's mother would always say they'd be alright. A memory that always stood out to her, was her mother singing while she cooked. This is where Sophia's love for music and singing blossomed from. Soon both she and her mother's voices filled the house in perfect harmony. Their life didn't seem so complicated and difficult. Sophia was the oldest of three children and helped raised her younger siblings. After school, she did her best to help her mother around the house. One day after coming home from school, her youngest sibling Sebastian said that their father struck their mother. Immediately, she ran to the kitchen seeking the whereabouts of her mother. She found her mother tearfully chopping some carrots, Sophia desperately asked her mother if she was okay. Sophia's mother nodded and held her daughter tightly, she told Sophia to stay strong for her siblings. She warned her to keep busy with school and to make sure she works hard.

You know why I named you Sophia? It means wise. You will grow up to be very wise my love. When you were born I saw you had the spirit of a fox in you. Cunning, smart and wise, these traits will help you survive.

Sophia continued with her day-to-day life and turned a blind eye to all the difficulties she was having at home. When she wasn't studying and doing work for school, she took her younger siblings to school and became a secondary mother figure for them. Sophia attended their sporting events, talent shows and any other event they had planned. She became the sole support system for her family. She wanted them (mother and siblings) to lead happy/normal lives. Even though she came home to her mother having more bruises and her father walking around the house in a drunken stupor, she still did her best to work towards her goals.

» Tears Become Strength

Sophia applied her anger and frustration towards her father to her work ethic. She was extremely hard-working and achieved perfect marks throughout high school. Days before her graduation, Sophia woke up mid-day to a letter from her mother that she and her younger siblings went to pick up her graduation kimono. She looked out the window, the air seemed thick and the weather seemed grim. She reached for the phone and tried to call her mother, getting nothing but voicemail, she began to worry. She ran downstairs, to her father on his knees crying. She walked to her father, every step getting heavier. She grabbed him by the collar and asked him what happened. Her father, with alcohol in his breath, said that her mother and siblings got in an accident and that they're in the hospital. Without skipping a beat, she gripped her father's collar tighter, grabbed the keys, and immediately headed straight to the emergency room. The drive to the hospital was the most anxious she's ever felt. Her palms were cold and damp from her sweat, her blood was running cold, all she could do was see lights zooming by her. Her heart was running ten times faster than the rest of her body. She had one goal and no object was going to stand in her way.

Pulling up to the hospital, dropping everything: keys in the ignition, car running, doors open. She sprinted towards the entrance. The next moments were the hardest moment in her life to date. She was there sitting in front of her father, still reeling from his drunken state. Sophia heard footsteps coming from the hall, as she looked up, the doctor's face was neutral. This frustrated her and she immediately propped up and pleaded with the doctor. The moment the doctor opened his mouth, her world stopped. There was no more joy, love, laughing, fun or excitement. Sophia was just empty. She went to the an office within the hospital to pick up any items found at the crash site. A box with a bright pink bow, tattered and beat up by accident. Sophia's hands quivered as she held the box, she unfastened the bow and opened the box. She found a beautiful gold heart-shaped pendant, a card and a wonderfully sewn, pink, silk kimono. She grasped the pendant and tears started to fall from her face, trickling down onto her hand. She unraveled the kimono and held it to her face, feeling the smoothness of the silk across her skin, it wiped her tears away. For a moment, she felt as if her mother was there, it was as if her mother was the one who wiped her tears. She picked up the card with such gentleness. Every motion was made with caution, as the if the card was going to break apart and turn to dust. She managed the card and held it at length, it read:

My Lovely Phia,

Life hasn't been the kindest to us, but it's given me you. You are the beacon of light for this family. No matter what we go through, you held us together. I know you're going to change the world some day and i'm so glad to see you have grown into such a strong woman. No matter what you do, don't give up. Always strive to be the best, because deep down, you truly are the best. I love you so much and I know your siblings feel the same. When you graduate, free yourself from us, I'll take care of the kids and your father. You've done enough for us, it's time to chase your dreams.

With A Love That Will Never End, Your Mother.

She grabbed the card and held it close to her heart. She opened her eyes and looked that the kimono. The design was beautiful, but there was something interesting in it's styling. It had a fox with nine tails beautifully sewn all throughout the entire kimono. She knew that it was something that would stay with her for the rest of her life.

» Her Fairy Tale

During her finals year of her nursing program, Sophia stood in front of a huge office building. A sign in front of the windows:

"OPEN AUDITION ！ SE ENTERTAINMENT ！ NEXT BIG THING ！あなたはポップスターになりたいです(OPEN AUDITION! SE ENTERTAINMENT! NEXT BIG THING! DO YOU WANT TO BE A POPSTAR)?"

Sophia shook her head and continued to walk away. But, for a moment everything stopped as she saw the insignia of SE entertainment. A gold-nine-tailed fox. Sophia knew this was a sign from her mother. She barged in the building followed the golden arrows, into a room that held a hundred young girls. Suddenly someone asked for her name and handed her a paper with the number "95". She stood their completely puzzled by what she got herself into.

Forty-five minutes later...

"NUMBER 95!!! NUMBER 95!!!"

Sophia looked down at her number and gasped, her eyes widening in panic as she looked around the room. Seeing a tall, slender woman waving in her direction, she immediately bee lined to her. Sophia in a quick fit bowed in front of the panel of judges. After a minute or two of bowing, she heard giggling as she looked up and nervously smiled. Sophia surveyed the room, looking at every judge attentively and acknowledging them. She thought to herself,

"Man... These guys look like a tough crowd. Some of them look like they've been asleep this ENTIRE time! Crap... Phia what were you thinking!!?!

"Number 95, yes?" the man in a blue checkered shirt with a dull face

Sophia snapped back into reality, nodding her head furiously. Not realizing her volume she exclaimed,

"Yes! I AM NUMBER 95!

Her voice echoed through the convention hall. The panel of judges looked less annoyed and more interested by the second. They began to whisper among each other. The man with the blue checkered shirt, looked over with a more amused face and shouted back,

"WHAT WILL YOU BE SINGING FOR US TODAY, NUMBER 95?"

Sophia realized she hadn't even thought of a song to sing yet, sweat began to form in her palms. A cold pang hit her stomach, but in that instant it clicked,

"I'm going to be singing "Legend of the Mermaid"!

Sophia's mother always sung this song to them during bath-time, nap-time, or anytime they needed comfort. If she needed one thing right now, it would be to hear that song. The panel stirred for a minute and then the man in the checkered shirt motioned and said,

"Please take it away..."

Sophia closed her eyes and in that moment she knew her mother was with her,

"Nanairo no kaze ni fukarete tooi misaki wo mezashiteta
Yoake mae kikoeta MERODI
Sore wa totemo natsukashii uta
Higashi no sora e to habataku toritachi
Saa, takarajima ni nukeru chikamichi...."

As she finished the final verse, her eyes slowly opened, she looked around. To her surprise, the entire convention center was astonished. The panel of judges began to murmur, suddenly she was whisked away into a whirlwind of flashing lights, blaring music, people screaming for joy, reaching for her. In one instant, she became a pop star.

» The Clock Struck Twelve

Sophia looked in the mirror her hair was tousled perfection, her make-up (barely any) was shining and radiant, she looked over her costume and it was in pristine condition. She turned over to see her beautiful, luxurious, animatronic nine tails, and they too also looked perfect. She smiled to herself, that was one thing she requested. When she perform, she have a nine tail prop. SE entertainment was proud to oblige, especially since their company insignia was a nine-tailed fox. Sophia became the mascot of SE entertainment. Not only the mascot, she became a world renowned pop star. Sophia Asamiya, The Galaxy Pop Star. Everywhere you look throughout the world, you'd see that in posters, cards, commercials she was on the cover.

The rain trickled down onto her hands as Sophia sat next to her family's graves. Every year she'd bring a bouquet of white tulips and lay them in the middle of their graves. She thought to herself, and remembered the letter, "...chase your dreams." Sophia held her hand to her heart, she hoped that she was making them proud. When she stood, for the briefest moment, she felt a hand on her shoulder. It didn't bring fear or discomfort, it actually felt warm and inviting. Sophia smiled knowing that her family was watching over her.

That night, during her concert, was one of her best performances. Her voice echoed through the music hall enchanting everyone who heard. The air was thick and the sky seemed groggy, just like it did when her family died. Sophia performed even harder. She didn't care about the weather or the worry she felt in her stomach, she just wanted to be present with her audience. As she sung the last notes from her closing, tears formed in her eyes. She walked off the stage with a standing ovation, her crew was hooting and hollering in amazement. As she walked to her dressing room, Younha, her assistant walked up to her with a grimaced face. Sophia asked what was the matter. Younha whispered in a low voice, "This man said he's your father..." and motioned to a hunched gentleman. Sophia walked up to him angrily, "I thought I told you never to reach out or call me." The man looked up and with the same eyes she saw the night her family died, he whispered, "Please Phia I need your help..."

The results were quick, they were a match. Sophia knew her father and her were a match and she had to make the decision to help him or not. Her father needed a new liver and she was the only one who could help him. She sat there trapped in her thoughts. Yes, her father was a drunkard. Yes, it was his fault. Yes, he hurt her family. But, he was still her father. What kind of person would she be, if she didn't help? Flashes of people she donated to throughout her career appeared in her mind. All the homeless, sick, poor and needy. She didn't even bat an eye helping them, why was she so cross with helping her father? She knew what she had to do. She agreed to help him, only on the condition he'd seek help for his alcoholism. She signed the waivers and consent forms and sat in her hospital bed. As she looked out the window, the sky was still dark and grim. The next moments in her life were so quick. She lay there on the operation table, in the cold.

There she was, laying in silence. The world was black around here except for a faint whisper in the distance, "clear...."

After a moment, everything faded out and she was in darkness again.

» Born Again

Sophia felt strange waking up and picking up her ticket in the Spirit world. She closed her eyes to think, but it was blank. There was nothing in her mind, except the melody of a song she didn't know the title of. As she looked at her ticket, she found her self transported to District 1 of the Rukongai. As she walked through the Rukongai, many individuals marveled at her beauty. Some even stopped because there was a faint air of familiarity they felt with her. A small meager woman, Kanna, walked up to her and asked if she needed a place to stay. Sophia fell to her knees and cried, she felt lost and confused. Behind her she felt a warm energy surrounding her back and as she looked, nine bright pink tails of energy were dancing behind her. The townsfolk were enchanted by the beauty of her. Kanna reached out a hand and helped Sophia get up. As time went by, Kanna sat Sophia down and told her about the Shinigami Academy. She saw Sophia's potential and recommend that she attend the academy. Kanna knew that there was something special about Sophia, there was a fire. That fire was going to lead her to do great things.

As she walked up the steps to the academy, she got her application and turned it in as soon as she could. Many incoming and current students were stunned by her beauty. Some couldn't stop staring, which caused her to nervously play with her fingers. Then it happened again, the same warmth she felt. She looked behind her and suddenly sprouted nine gorgeously-pink tails of energy. Officers of the academy saw this and immediately accepted her application and had her take the exams. Sophia's scores on the entrance exam were extremely high, she immediately was placed in the first class.

Sophia was extremely talented in many aspects of the Shinigami craft. While sparring with another classmate, the classmate grabbed her sleeve and looked into her eyes whispering, "Pop star..." Suddenly small flashes and images of her life as a pop star came flooding into her mind. Her endurance built from training and agility built from dancing came to her. Zanjutsu was one of her best skills. She would battle her opponents so gracefully, it looked as if she was dancing across the battlefield. Her fighting-style was very peculiar, she would fight extremely defensively using her endurance and agility to gain the upper hand. The moment her opponent showed any weakness, she would strike relentlessly. She noticed as she was fighting opponents for longer duration's of time, she enjoyed the fact that her opponent were in a weakened state and she was allowed to dominate in fights. Her relentless attacks, made her blood rush and became more sadistic as the fights prolonged. From this, she knew that she had a craving for the pain of her opponents. Almost like an addiction, similar to her father's addiction to alcohol. Sophia's skill with blades piqued many of the current shinigami's interest. She knew this isn't wasn't the healthiest pathway to go, so she focused her studies more towards spell craft. To her pleasure, she discovered that her skill with Kidō was even more amazing than her skill with a sword. She had such prowess and skill with Kidō, it astounded even Kidō specialists. Sophia had no qualms memorizing spells (always saying, "they're just like song lyrics <3") and had perfect positioning and force within her spells. She found doing Kidō relaxing, being able to release all the energy she had kept within her, allowed her to calm down a lot easier. Sophia gained such precision with her reiastu and reishi control, she was able to summon her tails and unsummon them at will. She opted to keep them, as they became her signature throughout the Academy. The professors and officers at the academy were extremely impressed by her growth, they had her graduate within 3 years of academy training. Her classmates expected nothing less.

After graduating the academy, she was immediately drafted into the Kidō Corps. There she found herself excelling over her seniors. She was performing Kidō techniques with such power and precision, the other members were mesmerized by her skill. She never let it get the best of her and stayed extremely humble. Finding her talents unfulfilling, she signed up to be a part of the Kidō Corps Healing Division. Her skill with Healing Techniques were staggeringly impressive. She was assigned to the emergency medical response team within the Healing Division. Where her team would set up an on-site healing center near the battle and recover any soldiers injured in battle. Sophia was also in charge of being the Healing Division's front line defense if anything tried to attack the healing center. Soon after achieving her Bankai, she was upgraded to Director of Healing Operations within the Kidō Corps. Her duties were to not only head research and development with healing techniques, but also be one of the first responders to any threat or event. Her job was to get as many soldiers as she can stabilized and eliminate the threat. Off-duty she still wanted to help others not a part of her work. She would travel to the Rukongai with a small team and help anyone who needed medical attention or assistance. Her goal as Director of Healing Operations is "Minimize allied casualties and maximize enemy deaths. I'm going to bring the Healing Division into a new era".

»IV. Equipment

» Equipment:

Along with her standard issue Kidō Corps robe, she dons a custom made white and pink silk Kimono. It was created to represent a kimono, that is lost somewhere in the memories she had. It's simple but the detail is very meticulous. Sophia had it shortened to reveal her slender legs, and keep her leg's free movement.

»V. Racial Techniques/Abilities/Skills

» Racial Abilities:

Kidō: Sophia's bailiwick. No only does she cast everything with perfect diction and precision. She's mastered casting spells without having to do incantation. Spending night and day at the academy perfecting her skill, she's astounded many other senior Kidō specialists. Although her binding and destructive spells are shocking and extremely impressive, her specialty lies withing the Healing Arts. She is able to stabilize even the most grievous of wounds. Sophia's learned from her position as an emergency medical healer to work quick and precisely when dealing with wounds. Shinigamis marvel at her technique making jokes that she's even more talented than the late Captain Unohana from many years ago.

Zanjustu: She finds this particular skill to be one of her favorites. Her defense with a blade is sturdy as a mountain but her offense is as fluid as rushing waters. Her movements aren't quick, but because they are so smooth it looks as if she's moving faster than she actually is. Her fighting-style relies on defensive posture which capitalizes on the opponent making a mistake. She constantly practices this skill, sparring with the soul society's "best" swordsman. Sophia has defeated many opponents, using her dance-like movements to confuse and to gain advantage over her opponents.

Hoho: This is a skill that she is not a fan of. Although she knows the basics of Shun-po and can apply it to battle, she finds this technique exhausting and tiring. She is quick, but not in the aspect of running at extremely high speeds. Sophia relies on her extremely quick reaction time to keep up with her opponents.

Hakuda: Hand-to-hand combat absolutely frustrates Sophia. She doesn't like to be grappled or thrown to the ground. Although, she was able to best her opponents by out-lasting them in a hand-to-hand fight, she by no means excels in this skill. In fact, her hand-to-hand fighting skill is a bit of a joke.

»VI. Sealed Powers

» Zanpakutô Name: Shukketsu Hāto (Bleeding Heart)

» Inner World:

Shukketsu Hāto's inner world is a huge bleeding heart tree garden. It's constantly raining and dark. It's a beautiful yet tragic sight. Although, it's pouring rain as you walk through, you don't ever get wet. At the center of the garden, there's a beautifully painted gazebo, that's wood is polished in gold. When you look towards the sky, it's an empty grey atmosphere, with rain falling from it.

» Zanpakutô Appearance:

Depending on the outing or event, she switches the sheathes in which she places her Zanpakutô. Her Zanpakutô is the standard sized katana, placed in an ornate pink, gold and white sheathe. She also changes the hand-guard depending on the season. Sophia takes her accessorizing very seriously. She prides herself in the fact her Zanpakutô doesn't have any qualms with the dressing changes. But, when she's on duty she has the standard set on top.

» Sealed Zanpakutô Power:

Reishi Tail Manipulation: Sophia didn't realize that her skill with creating her tails was an offspring of her Zanpakutô. Using this Reishi Manipulation she can create her tails, which are made from compacted reishi, this means they are tangible. Her reishi tails are actually prehensile, meaning she can seize, grab, or take hold of something with her them. Her tails are technically physical so she can use them to protect against strikes from a katana, but most likely the tails will dissipate with enough force. Sophia also has to maintain conciousness to keep her tails.

»VII. Shikai

» Shikai Release Phrase: Jibun Ni Naru! ( Free Yourself!)

» Shikai Appearance:

Sophia throws her Zanpakutō in the sky, and there it's surrounded by bright white enegy. It instantly forms into a 18 inch long gorgeous pink-scepter. It's design is similar to many magical-girl themed weapons. Sitting atop the scepter, red heart with a large diamond encrusted in the middle.

» Shikai Abilities:

Reishi Domination: Shukketsu Hāto's main ability is to manipulate and command reishi in her area. Using the Reishi in the atmosphere and environment allows for a variety of abilities offensive, defensive and supportive. (her abilities are extremely similar to a Quincy's)

Shukketsu Hāto, "Command"! : Using her scepter she's able command Reishi do multiple things.

Blade!: Commanding reishi to condense in front of her, she can create pink spectral swords. She can create a maximum of 6 spectral swords, which she can use to either fight you, using her Zanjutsu technique. She can also send them out remotely to dance around you, swinging and slicing with every thought she inputs. Of course, for every individual blade she summons the damage isn't as profound if multiple don't hit. If she has six summoned, 3 would need to directly hit you to be able to even cause significant damage to a standard arrancar's hierro. Unless, they were significantly weaker than she is, then one blade would be necessary to do significant damage. The damage also translates 3 summoned swords, 1 sword hit would cause significant damage. 1 summoned sword, 1 sword hit, immense damage would be cause.
Shield!: Bringing her scepter up and commanding a shield, summons a huge spectral barrier. This barrier can take different shapes, depending on what Sophia needs. The strongest form it takes is a heart-shaped wall in-front of her. This barrier can block attacks indefinitely from individuals lower than her power-level. But, under enough duress the barrier will eventually break, if she maintains a barrier protecting from an assault that lasts 2 posts the barrier will begin to crack. Around post 4 the barrier will shatter and dissipate. This only applies to people who are weaker than her. People who are at her level and stronger, she can block one post/one strong attack, then the barrier shatters and she will have to summon another one.
Net!: Swinging her scepter across from her body, creates chains of pink shimmering energy to form around her opponent and attempt to disable them. These chains are relentless and will keep forming until the opponent is snared or she loses focus. Someone weaker than her would take 4 posts to break free from her chains. Someone at her level or stronger would take 2 posts to break free from the chains. Of course, they can use abilities in attempt to break the chains, and with enough force they could possibly break free earlier from the chains.
Healing!: Sophia begins to drain the environment of reishi and generates a circle that extends from her to about 50 meters long, that heals her allies or people she recognizes as allies. Standing in the healing field allows individuals to heal minor to severe injuries over-time. Minor injuries would take 1 post long to recover from. Moderate injuries would take 2 posts long to recover from within her field. Severe/near death injuries would take 5 posts JUST to stabilize, but also require her attention to fully heal you. (She cannot bring people back to life and she wont be able to replace broken limbs.)
Arrow!: She raises her scepter to the sky, forming a circle above her opponent with the diameter of 100 feet, in front of her or above her opponent. Suddenly from the circle a volley of dark pink spectral arrows falls from the sky. These arrows have the power of a standard quincy's Heilig Pfeil . She can sustain about 100 arrows per post using this ability. Of course this is an aoe affect and could be blocked or dodged if the opponent was quick enough.
Gate!: This spell was created to help move critical care patients away from the battle. Using the principle of Hirenkyaku, she forms a 5 to 50-foot bright pink circular platform. Using this platform she can "teleport"/send it away almost 200 meters away. This techniques takes about 2 posts to form a strong enough platform to carry about 5 people. This is the main way she keeps up with advanced/master shunpo users. Modifying it to move her short distances she's able to have the same speed of an advanced shunpo user.
Dance!: She gathers as much reishi in her immediate vicinity in the diamond at the heart of her scepter. Charging it long enough causes the spirit energy to refract and double in strength. After about 1 post of charging, a large heart forms in front of her and then flies out with sheer power and force that could level a building. This ability is her strongest offensive ability and has about the level of a Captain-class Vizard's Cero.

** She can only maintain 3 commands in her shikai form. A shield, blades, and healing field. She cannot have a rain of arrows happening while she's defending, healing, and controlling her blades. Every command she releases the object's integrity and resilience decrease. Instead of being able to withstand an attack from someone at her level, they might break with an even weaker attack. Although she can maintain the objects she creates indefinitely, she has to maintain focus on the objects. The moment her focus breaks, they are instantly dispersed. Breaking her focus means blocking her sight from the objects she's controlling, knocking her unconscious, causing her to exhaust her self. Exhausting herself can be caused when maintaining 3 commands, for more than 5 posts, 2 commands for more than 10 posts, 1 command for more than 15.

»VIII. Bankai Powers

~~» Bankai Appearance:~~

Sophia's garbs disappear and she's suddenly wrapped with beautiful white silk cloth. Her pink tails are immediately evaporated and become translucent white wings. Her luxurious blonde hair begins to turn into an ethereal silver white. The silk cloths slowly begin to wrap and envelop her body forming into a beautiful dress. Her eyes also shift back into an icy-blue.

Her scepter is slowly turned into a crystalline-staff, that has ornate white-gold details and designs. It's doubled in size and the shaft of the staff maintains a pink coloring, but is also crystal-like.

» Bankai Abilities:

Enhanced Reishi Domination: Shukketsu Hāto's main ability is doubled and it's power is immensely increased. Sophia retains her abilities to create "commands", but this time the energy is no longer pink but a silver translucent white. Her abilities are all doubled in strength. Meaning now she can maintain almost ALL of her commands simultaneously. She can have up to 5 commands of the shikai-level running at the same time, in whatever combination she wants. Using any command on it's own will increase the supportive, damage, and defensive effects exponentially.

These are the abilities that are drastically within increased--

Enhanced Blade!: Commanding reishi to condense in front of her, she can create white shimmering spectral swords. She can create a maximum of 15 spectral swords, that she can remotely control, or she can wield with her hands. Each of these swords has the strength of a single sword summoned by her shikai. Meaning each sword has enough power to pierce the Adjuchas-class arrancar's hierro. Using 3 or more swords combined could potentially pierce a Vasto lorde-class arrancar's hierro. These swords hold the strength to slice through Cero's and even Kido cast against her (only up to the highest level she can cast).

Enhanced Shield!: Bringing her scepter up and commanding a shield, summons a huge shimmering white spectral barrier. This barrier can take different shapes, depending on what Sophia needs. The strongest form it takes is a heart-shaped wall in-front of her. This barrier can block attacks indefinitely from individuals lower than her power-level. But, under enough duress the barrier will eventually break, if she maintains a barrier protecting from an assault that lasts 2 posts the barrier will begin to crack. Around post 4 the barrier will shatter and dissipate. In her Bankai, she can hold the the defense up for up to 2 posts against an opponent's of equal or stronger levels attack.

Garden of Eden!: Slowly a garden of white roses begins to bloom around the vicinity and Sophia begins to drain the environment and those within it of reishi. This generates a circle that extends from her to about 50 meters long, that heals her allies or people she recognizes as allies. It also slowly damages opponents that stay within the field. Standing in the healing field allows individuals to heal minor to severe injuries over-time. Minor injuries would take be instantly healed. Moderate injuries would take 1 post long to recover from. Severe/near death injuries would take 2 posts JUST to stabilize, BUT still also require her attention to fully heal you. If opponents stay in the field for 5 post, their skin will begin to burn and wither, causing moderate injuries. If the opponents stays more than 15 turns within the Garden, their injuries would cause them to be immobile and they would eventually be drained of all their reiastu and reishi

World Create!: Her final and strongest technique. She summons a large angelic-deity to her plane. Creation is laying on her belly wresting her hand on her chin while summoned, in a laying position she is about 45 feet high. She is a tangible being so she can attack opponents, BUT she can be also attacked herself. With significant damage done to Creation, she will be unsummoned.

World Destroy: The angel has the ability to shoot Gran Ray Cero-leveled energy blasts from her fingers. She can command the angel to cast up to 3 blasts in a single post. She can even combine the strength into just one extremely terrifying attack.

World Healing!: The Garden of Eden ability forms around the angel. The garden is in full bloom all the white roses are glowing beautifully. In the field, the Angel can instantly heal minor wounds and in 2 posts heal moderate wounds. Given enough time and focus, within 5 posts she should be able to heal most severe wounds and stabilize anyone near death. Any enemies caught in the field has their speed cut into half and their skin begins to melt and cause moderate damage instantly.

World Kiss: The angel drains up to 3 opponents of equal strength of all of their abilities to move, by filling their bodies with Sophia's Reiastu. While World Kiss is active, the opponents are filled with immense pleasure and any pain the suffer is instantly turned into pleasure. They will be immobile for about 4 posts, unless they have an ability to free them of this.

** She can only sustain Command: World Create! for 5 turns. After she use this technique she is instantly reverted back to Shikai-form and any abilities she uses after that will be at constant half-strength until she can rest. The abilities titled "Garden of Eden" or "World" can only be used once per Bankai cast.

»IX. Role Play Sample

»Roleplay Sample:
During her finals year of her nursing program, Sophia stood in front of a huge office building. A sign in front of the windows:

"OPEN AUDITION ！ SE ENTERTAINMENT ！ NEXT BIG THING ！あなたはポップスターになりたいです(OPEN AUDITION! SE ENTERTAINMENT! NEXT BIG THING! DO YOU WANT TO BE A POPSTAR)?"

Sophia shook her head and continued to walk away. But, for a moment everything stopped as she saw the insignia of SE entertainment. A gold-nine-tailed fox. Sophia knew this was a sign from her mother. She barged in the building followed the golden arrows, into a room that held a hundred young girls. Suddenly someone asked for her name and handed her a paper with the number "95". She stood their completely puzzled by what she got herself into.

Forty-five minutes later...

"NUMBER 95!!! NUMBER 95!!!"

Sophia looked down at her number and gasped, her eyes widening in panic as she looked around the room. Seeing a tall, slender woman waving in her direction, she immediately bee lined to her. Sophia in a quick fit bowed in front of the panel of judges. After a minute or two of bowing, she heard giggling as she looked up and nervously smiled. Sophia surveyed the room, looking at every judge attentively and acknowledging them. She thought to herself,

"Man... These guys look like a tough crowd. Some of them look like they've been asleep this ENTIRE time! Crap... Phia what were you thinking!!?!

"Number 95, yes?" the man in a blue checkered shirt with a dull face

Sophia snapped back into reality, nodding her head furiously. Not realizing her volume she exclaimed,

"Yes! I AM NUMBER 95!

Her voice echoed through the convention hall. The panel of judges looked less annoyed and more interested by the second. They began to whisper among each other. The man with the blue checkered shirt, looked over with a more amused face and shouted back,

"WHAT WILL YOU BE SINGING FOR US TODAY, NUMBER 95?"

Sophia realized she hadn't even thought of a song to sing yet, sweat began to form in her palms. A cold pang hit her stomach, but in that instant it clicked,

"I'm going to be singing "Legend of the Mermaid"!

Sophia's mother always sung this song to them during bath-time, nap-time, or anytime they needed comfort. If she needed one thing right now, it would be to hear that song. The panel stirred for a minute and then the man in the checkered shirt motioned and said,

"Please take it away..."

Sophia closed her eyes and in that moment she knew her mother was with her,

"Nanairo no kaze ni fukarete tooi misaki wo mezashiteta
Yoake mae kikoeta MERODI
Sore wa totemo natsukashii uta
Higashi no sora e to habataku toritachi
Saa, takarajima ni nukeru chikamichi...."

As she finished the final verse, her eyes slowly opened, she looked around. To her surprise, the entire convention center was astonished. The panel of judges began to murmur, suddenly she was whisked away into a whirlwind of flashing lights, blaring music, people screaming for joy, reaching for her. In one instant, she became a pop star.

Comments/Notes:

First of all, remember what I said about the Usagi claim. Those pictures are not representing of this character and for this to be approved the pictures will have to be changed or removed.

Secondly, I will be approving this app without Bankai. You can keep what you have typed out, but Sophia will need to unlock it in character through training with either herself or a tutor. Until then, I will request that it is stricken out and not acknowledged as usable in-thread until such a time as it becomes unlocked! That being said, let's review!

For Shikai, I would like to note here that for Healing, she will be unable to bring individuals back from the dead. Nor will she be able to re-attach broken limbs.

The remaining problems I have lie within Bankai. Once those are fixed, I'll be ready to give this app a tier. As a blanket rule, every one of these abilities needs a number of times that it can be used per thread.

Enhanced Shield: Lower this to two posts against stronger opponents.

Garden of Eden: Change the drain time for opponents to 5 posts to damage, and 15 posts to immobilize. And this ability will only work on opponents at her level or weaker. This will be a helpful balance as the amount of healing she's giving out is pretty generous already in this form.

World Create: How big is the deity? Can it be damaged enough to destroy it before the four posts is up?

World Healing: The healing needs to be toned down considerably as this is a summon and cannot be that much stronger than Sophia herself as even Sophia won't have the kind of juice to heal major wounds dealt by some of the more wild powerhouses.

World Kiss: This ability needs to be removed, ideally, as the drain from Sophia herself in bankai is enough without adding a stronger one for the angel. Unless this is changed or toned down considerably, this should probably be taken off.

Once these issues are fixed, I'll approve this app! Really solid work, beyond that.
