Ase [Approved, Arrancar; 5-3]

» Name: Ase
» Age: 112
» Physical Age: 15
» Gender: Male

» Association: [What is this Arrancar associated with? A certain character? A selection of characters? A nation? An Organization? State their association and which characters they are tethered to]

» Appearance Written: Ase was a slim, but toned boy in life. Afterwards, he is no different, having the body of a 15 year old as a Hollow. He has short black hair, and has very dark red eyes. His hair is a mess, as if he always is awakening from a nap. He is almost always seen smiling when speaking to anyone (or anything) that he is familiar with. When speaking to anything else, he loses the smile, and looks a lot more serious. Being that his physical age is 15, he has a childlike look to him, along with a childlike voice, although he is much older than that. His hollow mask is a skull that sits on his right shoulder, split in half with the bottom half missing. It has just a slit for an opening of the eyes, and a smooth bone surface where there would be an opening for the nasal passageway. The mask is also cracked all around, resembling a look of when a rock hits ice, although it's still in tact.

His skin tone is light (think Nel), and is very smooth. However, his hands feel very rough, as though he has always been fighting. Aside from his head and face (though, no facial hair), he is hairless: no hair on his arms or legs. If it weren't for the hollow hole over the right side of his chest, he'd look like the typical young boy. He has surprisingly white teeth, and his canines are slightly sharper than average canines, and an abnormally longer tongue. He has scars that adorn his body all over, to include one that crosses his left eyebrow. Ase wears a black tank-top, and black shorts. His arms are completely covered in what appears to be white fighters tape just where the tank-top ends and his shoulders begin. Same with his legs, starting on his upper thigh this time down to his ankles. He wears a pair of black "kung fu" type shoes. He doesn't appear to carry any weapons.

» Personality: Ase is very joking and playful, trending towards his childlike appearance, when with people he knows and is comfortable around, and goes to a more serious look around ones he isn't. Whenever he is with companions, he will be more cheerful, and will tend to try to get the others with him to act as such as well, making people see him as more annoying than anything. During his tenure in Hueco Mundo, Ase lived a long afterlife of loneliness and isolation. Although he is seen mostly joking and playful, he will often times be seen staring off into the distance, as if there was something on his mind.

Although cheerful around companions, he has yet to meet someone he truly cared about. He has watched many Hollows and Arrancars meet their fate, and held no remorse for them. He also has no problem with killing one of his companions should the time arise to do so, whether it be an order, or the companion did something worth being destroyed. Sympathy has not found a place to sit in his soul, as he was shown none when he was Human.

When in times of stress, Ase will look more serious, and will no longer be his cheery and playful self. This is especially true when in combat. He becomes a much more sinister and angry person than before, though anger isn't his driving force. He must be told to retreat, as he will continue fighting if given the chance, unless he is absolutely overwhelmed.

Ase is obsessed with combat, wanting to always hone his skills so that he may not be beaten as he was in life. He wants others to feel what he felt in the world of the living, wanting to break them physically, and through that method it will break them mentally.

When working with his superior, he is absolutely obedient, and will do whatever he is told with no questions asked as to why. When in charge of others, he is much more relaxed, ruling more as a democracy and taking ideas from others, issuing orders only when need be. When working with equal level of power, he prefers working as a team to come up with a strategy, rather than just brute force into situations.

Although he prefers the souls of Humans, he will not hesitate to consume any soul that is readily available when given the chance. Cannibalism is not out of the question for him, as he believes you must use any means necessary to survive in this world. He realized this after only a couple long years as a hollow, putting himself in dangerous situations to satiate his hunger. A soul is a soul. The picky only hinder themselves, and when it comes to the dangerous world of Hueco Mundo, its survival of the fittest.

His Cero's have a light green look to them, like a green apple. Green was always one of Ase's favorite colors. However, his bala is actually dark red, like a red apple. This is a play on life and death, as he has always believed that these aspects both control the world, and one must do their best to understand both.

» Racial Abilities: While Ase has high close quarters combat capabilities, his ranged capabilities are very limited. He can use cero and bala, and can channel his cero in a unique way, but other than that has no other ranged abilities. When trying to use either cero or bala at range, they will either shoot in a random direction (120° in front of him) or just explode immediately, causing him harm.

He also has not had a good mentor within Hueco Mundo, and never worked on his pesquisa or zanjutsu techniques, leaving very poor results in both. Ase never wielded a weapon in combat, and would be very new to try to pick one up at this point.



» Zanpakutô Name: Koi Nuno (Dark Cloth)

» Zanpakutô Appearance: Contrary to the name, in it's sealed state, Koi Nuno is a white fighting tape that is constantly wrapped around Ase's arms and legs, to include his hands. Once in combat, the wrap seems to move, constantly wrapping around the above mentioned parts. The tape is quite durable, comparable to that of steel.

Cero Redirection:

Ase is very skilled in hand to hand combat, as his upbringings were all centered around it. He has seen and fought dozens of different fighting styles during his life, and even after he used what he learned to hone his skills. And with skill in close quarters combat, he has taken many blows, so he has learned how to take quite a few hits.



» Resereccion Name: Shin no sentōki

» Resereccion Release Phrase: Ase doesn't say anything to release.

» Release Actions: He thinks about the past and what happened to him. (Note, when he wants to enter into his ressureccion)

» Resereccion Appearance: Ase's wraps on his arms and legs appear to unwrap, and tornado around him for 5-7 seconds, completely covering him. They change colors from white to black. After the time, they attach to him, however this time they cover him entire body, only leaving an opening for his eyes and his hair. The tape also appears to look a lot more metallic than before.

» Resereccion Abilities: This form focuses on Ase's speed, drastically increasing his movements, further allowing him to break his opponents. His running speeds and striking speeds are increased by 20% of his unaugmented sealed state, as he makes it harder for his opponents to read when and where the next strike will come.

The wraps will now have a much sharper edge to them, allowing them to pierce his opponents after his strikes using a technique called "Sasu". If they hit an enemy, they will attempt to grasp onto a bone, or whatever they can get ahold of inside of the target, and pull it out of them using his strength. (enemies can pull them out before damage is done).

» Roleplay Sample: Walking in the deserts of Hueco Mundo, Ase seemed to be lost in thought. "Hmm, Los Angeles sounds interesting.." Ase always pondered why it was called the "city of angels". Maybe there were more tasty souls there for him to try. He was getting tired of the bland hollow souls he had been devouring over the years. As he walked back to the stack of boulders he called his home, he saw that there were hollows already there, only 500 feet from him, rummaging through the few items and books that he had. He sighed "Why do they always take MY spot? It's like they have a death wish or something.." , and in an instant, he used his mastery of the sonido to close the distance to 100 feet, firing his cero at the closest hollow. The beam shot out fast, fast enough to hit the first hollow before it knew it was coming, taking a huge chunk out of its body, and collapsing it. There was 1, no, 2 left, he could sense another already moving to his left to try to flank him. "I guess it was rude to not say hello first." He dashed left, to meet the Hollow head on and try to catch it by surprise. Reaching it with lightning speed, he threw a flat palm out to its face, grasping it, connecting dead center. "It's nice to meet you! My name is Ase, what's yours?" The hollow couldn't speak, or formulate any coherent response. The sheer surprise from Ase's actions had the words stuck in the hollows throat. As the hollow snapped out of it and attempted to bear hug him, he deftly jumped over it, using the face as a lift to the other side. It was at this point the other 2 hollows have collected themselves, and were heading straight towards him. Ase landed, turned towards them, closing his eyes for just a second. Pointing his finger at one of them, he smiled. "Cero". As it connected, a huge cloud of sand and dust filled the area around the blast zone. The hollow in front of Ase, horrified, turned to see him standing there with a smile, and attempted to back away. "Well, you know it's rude to go into someone's home uninvited.. And to not even give me your name. Tsk tsk tsk" Ase slowly walked towards the hollow, "Well, Los Angeles will have to wait I guess. Your soul will have to do for now."
