- Appearance Description:

Snow White Skin: Niflheim’s skin is almost the color of the freshly fallen snow. Luminous it isn’t pale like someone who is an albino or someone who has naturally no pigmentation in their skin. Instead her skin is bizzare in the fact that it is naturally simply, white. Without blemish, without worldly imperfection, it is this skin that is the first hint of “otherness” about her that is one of the defining features about this girl. Take for example how her skin naturally behaves when the sun isn’t even out, it is luminous and even takes on a glow of it’s own as if it has a internal kind of light filtering out into the world around it. As if it has it’s own luster, similar to how the moon reflects the light of the sun down into the earth in the dead of night. That is an apt description of how her pigmentation behaves with the world around it. It naturally reflects the light, causing for this girl to be often mistaken for a snow-fairy, or some kind of snow princess, or otherworldly being.

Now this changes completely when the sun it out however, her skin blazes like snow does when the light hits it, reflecting the light in different directions thanks to her skin literally being a lovely pale whitish color that is highly reflective to the light. It gives of a halo of light when hit by the sun, [not to be confused with the twilight saga’s “sparkle” ] this light can obscure her appearance a tad rather than it making it easier to see her. While at the same time it also is one of her defining visible traits in terms of how she looks. This stunning skin of hers is as far as she know’s unique and 100% herself.

Silver Eyes: Niflheims eyes are the color of silver, like the precious metal that was seconded in the ages of old to only gold, this is the color of the eyes that Niflheim has, and there is another interesting fact about them, given the center is a normal black dot, and so is the black outer ring. However inside? Her eyes themselves while only the normal silver shade, have a multitude of different silver pigmentations, a kaleidoscope of silver if you will, and each of these varying tones mash together to create the general singular shade that you see afar in her eyes, which look similar to the silver you would see in a jewelers store, if a jeweler was to sell silver in it’s liquidated state that is, given her eyes have a fluidity to them, in terms of the color, as sometimes it will be a silver that is so light that it borders on the color of platinum, and other times? The color will be a simple medium silver, and in times of anger she might even have a color of silver that looks more like shadow silver, or stone silver than it would look like regular silver colorations.

Thigh Boots: One of the more interesting facets of her appearance would be her thigh-high boots. Pure white like the snow, but also durable, these boots themselves seem to at a glance just to be made from a simple shimmering fabric, almost like cloth. However on closer inspection one might see the trace amounts of reishi running through them, or might see the interweaving of threads that comprise the white surface of her boots, boots that are made to withstand the duress of battle while looking stylish, that is the main intention of this addition to her arsenal that is her physical appearance. The platform heel is probably three inches tall, giving her stature a boost which turns her from simply looking graceful to an individual being who might have the regality belonging to that of a queen, not to mention the light stitchwork on the side of the boots which match her tastes perfectly

White Silver Hair: Another Peculiarity is the pigmentation of her hair, it is the color of the fallen snow. However the only real change other than that is that her hair is naturally laced with a coloration that is similar to silver, this makes her hair have a variating silver white color that ties together the snowy appearance of her skin, and the silver hue of her eyes, a contrast that seems to blend together well to make a stunning coloration that almost makes her hair look like it is instead of merely hair, a combination of precious metals that instead just grow naturally from her head itself. However still that is just how her hair itself looks even though it isn’t precious metals or anything otherwordly like that, it just is merely her hair, nothing more and nothing less.

II. Personality Traits


S-The Shell: NiflHeim’s Outer personality is known as the shell It stems from the dissonance between her real self and the self that she generally tends to portray. Because of this she seems for the most part to be cold, distant and hard to approach. This isn’t really because she is horrible or a bad person, but instead is because she herself has a “break” or phobia of getting close to people, which led to over the years an enclosure being erected around her gentle and tender self that is known as P- the Persona. So the shell itself has some characteristics that are different in comparison to her real self. Take for example when in interaction with people she tends to behave closed off, without any real emotions to be shown. From this you get a sense of the outer ice field that has given her the name niflheim the norse tundra of snow and ice that expands in every direction.

Not to be confused with a lack of emotion, though it isn’t that she isn’t emotionally competend, it’s that there is a cage which she uses to lock down those emotions, making it so that while she feels emotions such as pain, fear, love, hatred and everything under the sun, there is an impenetrable willpower that has allowed her to separate the two, meaning even if someone was to slaughter and break her world, she wouldn’t even show or flinch in terms of interactions, this is because of her willpower, the indominantable force of will that has allowed her to construct something that is as immobile as S- the shell. In a way itself, it can be considered to be beyond just merely a personality, it is one of her trademarks. The “Ice Queen” Persona.

Such as when talking to other people? She tends to be reserved, formal, and indifferent. She lets her logical side rule in conversations such as what is useful to the betterment of vandenreich or what is completely useless and baseless. Because of this her S- The Shell is somewhat unique, it isn’t just a mere “Personality” But a kind of barrier between her ideal self that she has constructed and her real self. Because of this the other real trademark of the shell is that she seems to be able to shut down on all her emotions, even as they are blooming in her chest she can shut them down without fail, like if she feels and unforgivable anger at someone, the kind that drives a person to madness? She could arguably shut it down on will alone, it isn’t because she doesn’t care. She actually cares alot about things that go on around her, it’s just simply that she has the willpower and the mental fortitude that she won’t act upon that anger and will let her cooler head prevail rather than making a huge deal out of it.

Another Example of S-The Shell is that even say if she had her body torn apart, she wouldn’t show the pain, like if you ripped her nerves out raw and began to stimulate them to make the most unbelievable pain possible? She wouldn’t act on it, unless she chose to because of the willpower that she possesses. Even if you broke her fingers one by one, healed her and then broke her fingers again? She wouldn’t act, this isn’t because she has some otherworldly pain tolerance, and it definitively isn’t because she doesn’t feel pain. Instead it is because she has such control over herself that unless she wants to act upon that pain? There isn’t going to be a way to get her to feel any type of emotion period. Because of this more importantly though this also means even if you say made her experience something like thousands of deaths? She probably wouldn’t even show a flicker of an emotion, not precisely because she isn’t bothered by it, but instead because again of that insane control that she has over herself, a control that is indominatable to the point that arguably there may be some situations that could unsettle her, but there is less than a 0.0001% of a chance to actually get her to visibly express any kind of emotion, because emotions to her are a crutch she doesn’t need, so she just shuts them down completely.

Beyond this S-The shell has some key characteristics that comprise it, such as her formal behavior that leads to her being courteous in every situation, rather than simply being formal to people without reason, this is because she as a vandenreich member knows the importance of putting on a good face for the organization, rather than being the unruly child that sets a bad example she is always on her best behavior, doing what she can to make the organization grow and prosper. So this means generally no matter who the person is she tends to be kind to them and treat them with respect. This isn’t because she feels the need to assert this nature, but rather because she feels that it is important to put her best personality forward. The only difference is this isn’t Genuine Courtesy, this is a fake Courtesy which is dictated by the shells need to be an ideal version of herself.

This is also because of the fact that she is the sternritter grandmaster. The leader of the sternritters and this means she needs to set an example for the rest of them, if she isn’t doing her job to the best of her abilities how are they going to be able to follow her example? That is what goes through S-The Shells mind when she is interacting with people on a day to day basis. This means that this is considered a integral part of the shells persona and there generally is beyond events that are ungodly and impossible to negotiate through generally no way to break this part of her, heaven and hell could align and because of her willpower the willpower that created this persona in the first place? She won’t change, not because she can’t but because it is a conscious choice of not changing that truly makes her so strange in the first place, because she just won’t change as there is no reason to change.

There is also the concept of Unity that is hammered into the shells lengthy persona. She believes that to make a unified team one must set the example, being at the front lines and forcing change with an indomitable will that will not change even with the world itself ends. She takes on each task as if it is something vital to the existence of the vandenreich. Even if it is something as simple as going to talk to people who could possibly align with them ? She does it to the best of her abilities, not because she feels it to be necessary but because she needs to be the one to pave the path forward for her people, her emperor and for her own self. This is why she will never be the one directing things from the shadows, she uses her own power to move mountains for her people. There is no mountain high enough and there is no ocean deep enough to stop her from doing this.

Infact in terms of what she will do for unity in her people? There is nothing that will stop her absolutely nothing because of her willpower she will push through any pain, any barrier. Even if that barrier is her own life? She will discard that life for the greater good and then even when her bones decay because of the indomitable will that is the shell? She will keep going even if only through her spiritual energy to keep everything together? She will not falter she will not stop, and she will not cease because of the fact that to her there is absolutely nothing more important than her people, nothing more important than unity, than making the quincy a power that is great again. Nothing is higher to her purpose than that, the concept of “Unity”

Then there is the concept of the punisher, S-The Shell, her major persona is known to punish those who cease to follow the rules of the vandenreich, she will not rest until they are brought to justice, even if that means she must hunt them to the ends of the earth. Nothing is considered “too hard” or “too dauntless” for her. Even if that person is her beloved, her loved one, her emperor or her god. She will bring them to justice and meat out the punishment herself if others are too afraid to do so, as she considers herself to be the pillar that her emperor her people, and her organization leans upon so that they may get stronger, And because of that? She continues to strive to be stronger and stronger, even if it’s only her will that brings this forth? So be it to her, and this is why if someone breaks the code of vandenreich? She becomes a monster which will be rooted into their very nightmares, she will take them and then beat the rules back into them if she must, because that is a part of who she is, of what she is.

This doesn’t mean that she is unfair in her punishments however, rather it just means that when people are disobeying the rules, that she will meet out the punishment that is necessary, she won’t precisely go overboard because she is only wanting to give the person the punishment that they deserve. It is an entirely different matter to her to go overboard in giving punishments, to her there is no point in doing that because that will just breed more resentment. She herself doesn’t see that resentment to be necessary, or warranted. Instead she feels that she is only obligated to give out the amount of punishment that is set by what rule they broke, such as if they betray vandenreich she may just chop off their hand, or if they did something minor like speak back to a superior when it isn’t time to do so? She might just send them to a reflection chamber for the remainder of the day, she isn’t cruel or unfair, as those things are not something she sees to be a viable manner of keeping order within the organization.

Next there is the concept of control, this is something that the shell has in spades, to the point that she could be considered to be the “pinnacle” of control. She doesn’t even flinch at having limbs cut off, you can insult her with every word possible and this indomitable control that is her willpower will not break. You could kill her loved ones, you could break her bones slowly one by one, and she still will not falter, this is because to an extent she doesn’t see her body as belonging to her own self, instead seeing it merely as another tool which can be used to help her people become great again. Because of this she has almost no concept of self preservation for her own sake, hence this godly level of control over her own psyche that transcends what one can achieve when they are only thinking about themselves. She has only achieved this level of control by discarding her sense of self and instead maintaining the sense of “purpose” over any other kind of sense through her willpower alone.

This control extends to masking her other emotions as well as explained before, she is a wall that gives away nothing that she doesn’t want to give away. Because of this it means that even if someone was to say, force her to do something she didn’t want to do? This wouldn’t show on her face unless she wanted it to. Each of her emotions is under a control that is stronger than steel, forged by her understanding of her position, and the need that the vandenreich has for someone who can calmly think and who can make actions without feeling, without bias, without a need or want for their own personal gain. This is the kind of person the Shell’s persona is, the ideal, the perfect leader in a sense, even if she does answer to the emperor and the emperor alone. She has a willpower that transcends logic, and one that defies all reason, because of this it is what makes her a potent player for the vandenreich.

Next is the logic, the shell is highly logical rather than feeling things with the heart, the head is the force that prevails, because of this it is arguably one of the more known traits that can been noticed in the shell. She thinks each thing through before adressing them, and then and only then does she act upon them. Given the previous statements about her willpower and how she behaves, it shouldn’t be hard to figure out that she tends to react to things on a level that is completely void of any emotion, this is because of that insane willpower that she has, which allows her to only react to things that she feels she wants to react to, because of this and more importantly thanks to this, it means that she doesn’t generally act upon things that bother her in a general way shape or form.

P- The Persona: P-The Persona is the personality you get when the shell has been stripped down to it’s base levels. If someone is trusted enough they might get to the point of seeing the personality that lies beneath that impenetrable wall that is the shell. This is her less than ideal self, the self that makes her human rather than some kind of spiritual being that might not have these emotions, however because of the fact that P-The Persona is hidden underneath the vastness that is S-The Shell , it is rare to even see this persona in the first place, as instead of it being a common personality it is her truest essence of who she is, instead of it being something that is minor, P-The Persona is who she is on a very fundamental level, with all her generalized flaws and imperfections.

Such as P-The Persona is empathetic and she understands people on a fundamental level, she doesn’t perhaps agree with them but she can understand why they act like they do. There is a certain softness about her that isn’t seen in her ideal self, she reacts with a kind of motherly vibe that would normally undermine her as s-the shell and such is normally never seen nor brought to the surface. However if one was to see this empathetic side? They would first notice that she doesn’t fake her emotions, they are genuine and heartfelt, they don’t seem to come from a logical place either. These come from the heart and show her true feelings. Like if she cares about someone? If she’s P- The Persona she will express that by possibly blushing, or even acting as if she was embarrassed on some level, however this would depend on what the situation was of course, given she can’t just giggle and blush like an idiot at everything she see’s and or hears.

Beyond this her empathy extends to the situations of others, such as if someone was having a bad day, she might understand that and as a result treat them differently so that they might even if it’s just a tiny bit. Feel a bit better, or she might help an old lady up the stairs that was expressing their own back-pain, it all depends on what the situation calls for and more importantly what is needed. For this reason her empathy is a wide encompassing part of P-The Persona, seeing as unlike S-The Shell she is very compassionate, she understands and wants to understand people, because she wants to help them, while s-the shell wants to understand people so that she can unify them better under a single flag, a single race, with a single purpose in mind to bring the quincy into a new golden age.

P-The Persona also is a tad sassy, she can be impish and antsy depending on the situation at hand, known for playing tricks on people, or teasing someone in a way that might be considered to be especially “tricky” It all depends on the situation with her. For example with P- The Persona she might even do something like nip someone on the nose, or give them a kiss on the cheek, or even depending on her mood she might if she was bored enough, wrap her arms around a complete stranger and give them a tight hug and loving squeeze, however because of this? She also is known to play tricks on people, such as putting super-glue in their pants or even hanging them upside-down by their toes, which is one of the things that makes p-the persona kind of strange in terms of how she behaves. It is a stark contrast from S-The Shell that is generally straightforward and to the point.

This sass goes beyond mere impish teasing though, as she might even do something like stick her tongue out at an important figure on an enemy. It is geniune disrespect in some cases, because at heart? Niflheim was a wild child and this is personified in P-the Persona, where as the perfect shell which is S-The Shell doesn’t have this trait, as it is something that might be considered to be harmful to the good of the vandenreich. As such she seems to have this kind of “Childish” streak about her which is personified as pure sassy impish negligent behavior if she’s showing this personality to another person. Yet it all depends on what is going on and how the situation is panning out, in which if a person is able to even get to the point that they would be able to sense or see this particular trait in action on its own.

Then There is love, P the Persona does feel a deep encompassing love for others, and if someone was able to get to the point that they actually had been able to see P- The Persona’s love, it might be a testament to how good they are at getting through the chinks that it takes to even get to this point. Given her heart is tender, and pure, with a bounty as wide as the sea, for that special someone who is able to even breach her defenses to get here. To those that manage to get to this point? They will never be betrayed by her, they will be at the forefront of her mind, and she will essentially do anything for them, because of the fact that it just is so absurdly rare for a person to be able to get to this point in the first place, it just simply is something that isn’t going to happen “normally” or “on a whim” it takes hard work and dedication to get to this point in the first place.
III. Character History


[birth is in 3rd person]
Birth-Early Childhood: Rakkī yajirushi Date was born out of wedlock in the year 1383 to the head family of the Date Clan, a clan of samurai that had been around since the early kamakura period, there wasn’t anything startling about her birth, instead the young babe had been born on a stormy night in monsoon season, under a particular star, she was predicted by a seer or a lady who was thought to be able to see into the future, to live a life with a bow in her hand until the day she died, her mother and father hadn’t said much to that notion, but rather had decided that there wasn’t much to say about that manner in which this “seer” had told them a family of prominent samurai that their only daughter and the heir to the family would be drawn to a bow, rather than the tool of the family trade the sword, in fact the reason they didn’t say much is because they had been superstitious folk who believed things to be pre-ordained by the great powers that be and the emperor of the time. That things weren’t created by human or other people but rather by the gods, the beings that made the earth, the skies and even the spiritual cycle that all things that birthed into eventually would die into.

This was why on that night as the babes chord was cut, and then cauterized via heating a blade, which was how they originally seemed to do things, instead of having things done in the manner of just cutting the chord and letting it bleed everywhere, it seemed the sensible thing to do at least was to cut it, and then make it in such a way that the blood wouldn’t fall, that the babe would be borne into this world in it’s strongest conditions, and that night they had lay items infront of the infant to see what she would pick as if to check what the seer said to see if it was true, and the first thing the babe touched? As if her hand gravitated to it’s very essence, was an arrow. It was the first thing she touched in her life, and it was something that she seemed to clutch to the point that no matter what was tried they could not get the girl to even try to remove the arrow, and instead waited till the babe was asleep before they tried to remove the arrow from her person once more. Even then they found her tiny baby fingers wound too tightly to remove that arrow from her clutches.

That was when they decided to name this babe, name her based on the way she clutched that arrow to her tiny little chest as if it was her lifeline, they decided that in a clan of samurai they would have to make an exception. Something that only could happen to someone born as the sole heir of the family, as the individual that would eventually take up the mantle of the date, it was decided that they wouldn’t make this babe learn the ways of the sword as they would any other member of the family, as that was their path. Everyone born into the family was made to live and die by the sword, by the code of honor, by the way they lived their very own lives, honor was everything, above all honor and independance, there was nothing else that was important to her father, her mother and her family in this world other than these facts. Because of this they hoped that she would be able to live her life in a manner that would bring great honor to their household, to be able to make them stronger because she was born, and as such the girl was born with a burden that was soul crushing, however this is unknown to her as of yet, for now? The first words she was told the first words she came into this world knowing was the name her parents gave her.

That Name Was Rakkī yajirushi Date or the Lucky Arrow Date, named in hopes that she would eventually bring great prosperity to the clan, and make it so that they would be able to become a prominent figure in the world around them, she would be the only person in the clan in that era that was to be excluded from the sam urai training. The only individual that would instead of fighting in that time period would learn the bow and the arrow, that was the path they chose for her, and as such? All they had to do was wait, wait for her to grow.They waited until she was strong enough to hold a small bow, and that was the age of roughly five, she didn’t understand the reason she was drug every night at midnight and told to shoot arrows till morning, nor was she told why she had to then to excercises that no kid her age had to do, what they didn’t have to understand learn or know, while other girls learned how to either wield a sword or to be a good housewife? Rakki learned the arts of the arrow, how to shoot to kill, how to shoot to maim, how to shoot precisely to knock arrows out of the air, she learned all of these things while they didn’t teach her anything else, other than the main neccesities such as how to read, how to write, how to do maths, this was her life as a small child, molded strictly by her own parents motivations to succeed.

Early Childhood- Late Childhood [ Characters Narration]

“..I’m So Hungry” Rakki had said slowly with the rather simplistic language that she was taught, not the sophisticated aristocratic tongue that was used in the courts, but a low down to earth language that was soft, simple and easy on the ears, the language of a child. She wanted to go inside, to eat and to eat well, she was exhausted from the exercises she had been forced to do every since she had hit her 5th year of age, and yet she knew if she didn’t do them there would be worse punishments, she would have to work more, to learn more and to try the whole practice over again if she didn’t do things properly if she didn’t learn things properly. This notion is what kept her moving long after the muscles which screamed in her arms should have given out, her seven year old body not having the proper developement needed yet to shoot arrows extremely far distances, currently she was focusing on speed and accuracy, as she did every day she did it again today, her usual regiment which consisted of.

Running 10 miles, then firing several hundred arrows at seventy different targets in repetition, these targets always would be at random places and she would always have to find ways to shoot each target from the same position, meaning moving targets which had been rigged up? She had to figure out how to hit those things as well, rather than moving away from them or running from them? She had to hit them head on if she wanted to do things properly, and if she missed it? Well when rakki missed and that target ended up hitting the end of the rope the weight would pull the rope downwards on that side, which would cause a bell to ring. If any bells rang? She had to spend the extra thirty minutes to an hour resetting the entire thing. Only after which she would have to start again and again until she finally managed to shoot each of those targets atleast ten times. It was something that tired her out, something that she dreaded doing but she would do it anyway, she would force herself to move her arms until they burned, until she was unable to lift that bow, until her body screamed at her to stop, cried at her to stop, begged her to stop. Yet she would still push through that pain and keep going, with single minded focus and determination she would continue to force herself to continue down the path which was needed to get stronger. Now the question was why would she force herself to get so much stronger? It was because she had one thing drilled in her mind in that age, it was 100% isn’t enough, break through that barrier and push to new heights. And so she would do just that.

Most days she was out shooting arrows from dawn to dusk after her run, it wasn’t as if she wanted to do that, but it was what she was trained to do and what she was supposed to do. She wasn’t someone who was given leniency, especially because she had overheard the argument that her parents had to make with the other branch family heads, who all had to make their children into samurai to follow the code that governed them until their deaths. Her parents had been given the ultimatum that if she wasn’t able to kill several men within the span it took to draw a sword by her twelfth year of life? They would kill her, they would gut her because of her disgrace as someone who was borne into a family of samurai and yet was not a samurai because at birth she was pre-ordained a different path by a seer. This was the only way that from what she heard , that kept the people from the branch of her family instead of the head household from rebelling and potentially killing not only her, but her entire family, and driven even at that young age. Where she didn’t understand it well, she wanted to prevent this to prevent the pain of a divided family. Thus she trained.

She trained like a demon, instead of like a human, even when her body failed her mind drove her further, her willpower her determination and her tenacity brought her through many days where she was practically turning her muscles into jelly, turning her very bones into liquid through the repetition of pulling a bow back and firing it, and yet? Every day she got better, and she got faster. Rakki was beginning to see improvement in her own strength, and that was something she loved she wanted to get stronger, better with her bow for her parents sake. They had sacrificed so much for her, had made it so she could pursue this path which was different from everyone else in her family. Made it so that not only she could pursue it but that she could pursue it without trouble and without worry, they had worked so hard to give her a break to do it, and because of this? She would kill for her family, she would fight for her family and she would not only fight but she knew she would fight for the death for them, even at the age of seven she knew she would be loyal to her father and mother the people who gave everything to her, for all eternity. She owed them that, the loyalty, the unconditional love, and the undying honor that she needed to cultivate everything was for them, everything that she had in her very being was for them.

First Mission/Late Childhood Cont:

“..So i am to kill the rogues that lay on the outskirts of our northern village. . . huh “ Rakki had been mumbling to herself as she was on the road, the cloak which bore no insignia on it’s outside being a reversible one made of black fabric to match the night itself had allowed to her to easily blend into the shadows themselves. To allow her more importantly to hide in the dead of night. On the eve of her 10th year of life she had been given a task. It had come when she was sitting across from her father, the head of the household, and she was polishing her bow, the strong recurve which she finally had become able to string just a month before her birthday, a bow which was carved from a branch of a sakura tree, and made to be able to fire an arrow with enough power to imbed itself deeply inside of the side of a tree, or if a case arose enough force to even punch through smaller trees it just depended on how much power she was supposed to put into it, however it was at this time her father spoke to her and rakki listened, as she had learned if nothing else she was to treat her father with the upmost respect possible, that she wasn’t supposed to even have the slightest of sounds escape her mouth, she was to just listen. Now as she listened she was told of what she was supposed to do, she was to go to a town that was a day and a halfs hard ride in their territory bordering the mountains proper this was a town that was plagued by bandits which had been undermining the town’s integrity as well as making off with many of the village mens wives daughters and even livestock, she was to kill them, she had been told that plain and simple she was to murder them in cold blood and then leave.

That was what had brought her here to this town, even as her nerves shook and her mind was on many different things, such as how was she going to take these bandits out, how was she going to live through the night on her own. How was she going to eat, where was she going to sleep? She was a scared girl even with all this honor and hope going through her mind, ingrained there. She wasn’t even a woman and she had already been thrust into an adults world of murder, it was her mission to kill these people and she had waited finally until she was under the cover of night, and she had snuck up to the place where the bandits slept two sentries outside of the cave with their spears resting firmly against the ground. She had waited until the moon was firmly covered by the clouds then before she had decided to act. Stringing her bow silently as if she was the grave, and then knocking one of the arrows she had in her quiver to the bow. Muscles shaking as she drew it all the way back to then fire it, the arrow whistling through the air before finally it found it’s mark, imbedding itself into the neck of the sentry that was to the left of the cave opening. This sentry only let out one gurgle of suprise before he fell back, blood gushing from the arrow wound in his neck. This alerted the other guard who let out a shout of dismay, one loud enough to raise the alarm and wake up all of the other marauders/bandits that had hidden within the compound itself previously.

As they came pouring from the hole she had knocked another arrow, with silence, precision and without any time to think about it, the arrows shooting one after the other from her bow as if there was nothing more she could do about it, other than listening to the order her father had given. Each one of these arrows had found their mark then, through the eyes of some of the bandits arrows had shot through with enough force that the steel glinted through the back of their skulls. Others had been shot through the ribs, the arrow managing to puncture both the lung and the heart at the same time , others had been shot squarely in the neck, the force behind her arrows having caused the individuals to literally choke because of the suprising amount of strength that she had ammassed from those insane workouts she had been doing all her life. Given she was using a bow with a 80 pound draw even at the age of 10 it made sense that she was able to cleanly sever through their spines with a shot from her arrows, the sharp metal tip slicing through the bone like butter, causing them to fall down on the ground.

It was over before it even had started for her, as she had shot each one of them quickly and cleanly they had died without even knowing the location of the attacker, let alone their gender, beyond this she had also been able to completely destroy them without much problem, as she was able to discern each one even in the low lighting without much of a problem thanks to her keen vision. Yet that wasn’t the problem, it was the psychological trauma that came from the realization that she had killed someone, that she had actually ended the lives of many people, and she thought about this as she went to collect her arrows, and tears even began to fall from her face, the fear of killing was balanced by the relief of not being killed, of being able to live and to breathe another day. She had been so greatful that she was alive that it was shameful to her. Samurai didn’t fear death, her father didn’t fear death and her mother didn’t fear death so why.. Why was it she was so glad to be alive? She didn’t understand it the way her heart seemed to be pounding violently in her chest, how she wasn’t able to even process things through the sound of her blood roaring through her veins, she merely continued to collect her arrows as blood covered her and then she began her ride home.

The ride back to her home was a weary one, even after she had traveled on horseback for many miles she had still remained drowsy in her saddle, which was bouncing up and down without much of a problem, it wasn’t that she was tired however as she came home, instead it was that she was in a state of intense psychological shock, her mind wasn’t really able to process the fact that she had killed someone, she was trying to wrap her mind around the concept that even if they were bandits that she had indeed actually taken the life of another because she was told to do so. She had ended their lives without any warning nor without respect, she didn’t let them know who was killing them, instead she just had killed them there and left them there without even bothering to move or hide the bodies. That was something that bothered her, that she hadn’t even bothered to hide those bodies , instead she had decided to leave them there for the crows. So that their bodies would be eaten up torn apart and then strewn about the land, they would rot away to nothing eventually she knew it, and she even wondered if they would eventually come back and haunt her as vengance. But she didn’t care, she just wanted to get home to wash off all the blood.

She got home some time the next day after killing them having ridden her horse harder than she had on the way there, greeting her father and telling him that the bandits had been dead was a great thing, he had for once seemed proud of her, or atleast gave her praise for finishing the job and coming home without a scratch on her, as most individuals would have ended up gravely injured, which was why for now atleast rakki seemed to enjoy it, the way in which she was able to be praised without having to worry about what the catch to it was, and after she went to her room, she went out back to the hotsprings which they had next to their house, dipping down inside to rub her skin raw trying to scrub off the blood that had stained her hands and her arms, pale skin showing like the moon above, she tried and tried to scrub the memories away.

First Battle:

When she was twelve she was forced to participate in a battle with the shogun that at the time the date family was backing, to face insurgents in the east which where coming down to try to take over the prefecture she was sent with a group of samurai to aid the shogun and their army. Rakki remembers when she was moving the smell of blood and oil, it wasn’t as if she was at the time unfamiliar to these scents given over the two years following her first instance of killing she had bathed herself in blood almost on a daily basis having to go from place to place to kill people for her father, for her family, for her fathers superiors. In the local area around her she had actually become someone who was a rather well known “Assassin” a being that would continue to kill when ordered to, and not only would do so but at the same time wouldn’t kill the weak, elderly or women who were pregnant, she spared them because she couldn’t understand taking lives like those for no reason, it was not only pointless but to kill a life that was not yet borne atleast to her was a kind of sin, as such the day she was told by her father that she was going to go to war? To her it was a relief to know that she would be only killing enemies weighed less on her conscience then possibly having to kill people that didn’t even deserve it because she had to protect her families honor, such things didn’t even for the most part atleast make sense to her, she didn’t want to even have to protect that honor, it was worthless to her in a sense seeing that she didn’t even need it, she respected her parents but not her family anymore, they had forced her to kill way to many times to gain that kind of right.

She had been brought to the battle field and stationed on the rear guard, so that she could pick off people with the uncanny “knack” she had with an arrow that had gotten her noticed and picked for such a job in the first place. At her vantage point she could see the flag of the enemy army which was seventy thousand strong over the horizon. The endless sea of bodies which surged down the crest of the hill covering all the grass, making it seem like an absolute madhouse to her to say the least, the fact that there was so many people running to their deaths, and then the fact that she would have to kill them. All of it to her was absolutely ludicrous it didn’t make sense, and she didn’t want it. Yet she still strung her bow and readied it, using her keen eye sight to be able to pick out her first targets, blood thrumming through her veins as she held her hand firm and waited, counted her breathes and once they got within her mighty bows range? She fired, knocked an arrow and fired again, the deafening roar of thousands of voices rising up like a wave to hammer into her eardrums, and even still she continued to fire one arrow after the other again and again rakki fired taking down bodies with each of her arrows, taking them out one after the other without mercy with indifference. Even as people around her began to be pushed back? She would pick up the arrows from the bodies of the fallen, knock them even when they had been slick with blood took aim and fired some more, hammering arrow after arrow into the enemy without any remorse It didn’t matter to her whose blood remained on those arrows, instead she just cared that she would be able to continue firing them.

She was so focused however on firing them that she missed an enemy that blindsided her from the flank, cutting down her brow to her cheek , narrowly missing her eyes while biting deep into her flesh. That was an offense that she repaid in kind, slamming the tip of an arrow deep into his eye socket to penetrate and skewer his brain. After he dropped twitching to the ground she had pulled the arrow out of his head, knocked it and then fired using her good eye even though it screwed with her depth perception greatly, making it so that she was unable to fully discern the distance between her Opponent and her arrow , she still made up for it by firing straight and true, the amount of force behind exherted from her bow being plenty for her, atleast it was enough for her to nail most of the individuals firmly in the chest, instead of in the arm, or the neck. To make up for her lack of vision she made up for it simply in this method firing off arrows rapidly one after the other to slam into enemy after enemy littering the battlefield with the corpses of her foes, without sympathy for those who would be left behind after these individuals died, because that didn’t matter to her. What mattered to her was instead was the fact that she wasn’t able to kill enough, she had begun to get a taste for fighting the adrenaline that went along with the battlefield thrilled her to the very core of her being, it made her want to kill more and more people to fight harder, and to even see her foes fall before her, it made her feel alive in every way that was known to her being. Because of this she would become known on that bloody battlefield while others faded into obscurity her archery skill was stuff of legend even at the age of twelve her skills where enough that she was recognised for them and she was revered because of them.

The Warring States Marksman: By the time She had turned fourteen rakki was known throughout the warring states as a marksman of unbelievable skill. Some thought she was a god in human form a being that was supreme in the same way that the emperor was considered at the time to either be blessed by god or some kind of minor god on his own, this was her legend, she was the best archer in japan at the time due to her considerable talents and skills, unlike how individuals who just let their talents go to waste did? She had trained them and worked her butt off , and now? She was an amazing individual who had brought unbelievable honor to her household and her clan, Not because she wanted to show off, but because she had worked hard to reach this level of success, she had spat out blood, ground out her heart, fought through wars and got psychologically shaken up because of it, she had braved training on sheer willpower where her body would not move otherwise, it was thanks to this that she became a legend in her own right and now? She was reaping the benifits of it, such as she didn’t seem to stay in a single place anymore, during this time she was a nomad more than anything a period that spanned between the eve of her 14th birthday she instead of doing things for her clan decided to head out to the world on her own and make a name for herself and further raise her clan’s status through her own conquests.

One such incident came in the fall of her fourteenth year of life, she was in what would later be known as the iga province where she had been eating and some bandits had come in. Her reaction was to quickly pull her bow out string an arrow and then shoot the bandit in the throat only after he had begun trying to rob people in the establishment. It wasn’t because she hated them. On the contrary Rakki understood more then anyone probably why they did what they did. They had to live on their own without a clan, or because they had been kicked out of their clan. It was a very harsh way of life that did very little to help those individuals who needed it, because of this they had no option but to continue to kill to steal and the murder, and she hated it to the very core of her being, these people who got themselves in a ditch and couldn’t pull their own way out. Yet she wouldn’t let them live if they continued to try to harm others when she could prevent it, her honor didn’t allow her to let them live, and thus? She killed the bandit without a seconds hesitation, she had murdered him by shooting an arrow through the side of his neck, passing clean through and sticking there within the meaty sinew with blood spurting out of it. The man had fallen then, smashing into the ground with a thud that could echo around the entire room, a room that was now filled with silence as everyone seemed to stare at the dead body which was bleeding out on the floor, then people seemed to scream and began to run, given in that area it seemed to bandits actually had a strong foothold, something that needed to be changed, to be uprooted before anything worse took place. Because of this Rakki had picked up her bow and then asked the nearest person where the bandits hideout was and then she had gone after it.

Trudging to the outskirts of the city to another cave in which these bandits seemed to live. Then like she had all those years ago with a sense of deja-vu she had knocked an arrow as the moon was high in the sky, and fired. Her arrow shooting through the air to slam into the sentry who died with a strangled gurgle as blood ran out of their neck spraying across the grassy floor below. That was when the others came out ,and she watched. Wondering why all those years ago she had been so afraid of these people, afraid of spilling their blood, of taking a life. She had been afraid all those years ago of what it would do to her if she had to take a life and now? She didn’t even care about these people’s lives, people who stole from others and killed others in turn shouldn’t be confused if they too ended up dead, that was how she saw things through those eyes who had seen the death of thousands on a battlefield. Who had seen these people die horrible deaths without much stopping them, that was what was going through her mind at this point, and she didn’t really care that for the most part these people had done no wrong, instead? What she did was she had knocked another arrow, took aim and fired. Taking out another one of the individuals who had caused problems for those who lived in the general area.

Then she shot another arrow and another, firing them so quickly that it would have seemed almost like a rain slamming into different bodies in rapid succession, which was the only hint at her talent, as she had made clean shots in the same area on almost every body even with only the light of the moon to go off of. A feat which was as much a testament to her skill, as to how lucky she was to be able to make such a shot in the first place, let alone a few multiple shots in succession at the exact same time, which made her day as she eventually was able to finish off the last of the bandits and finally began to make her way back to the town. Once she got back to where she was sleeping, she made sure to let the local magistrate know that they wouldn’t have any more trouble with the bandits that had been plaguing them. News which then quickly shot through the city as she went on with the remainder of her stay.

Clan Head Period: After she got back from her wanderings after she had turned 15 she had ended up taking over the position as clan head as her father at the time had grown too old to take the position, and with only a daughter and no sons to show for himself she ended up being the one who took leadership of the clan during this period. It was an unexpected event for her, because she had felt her father was strong, almost considered someone who probably would never willingly step down from his position on anything below death itself taking the position from him, and yet? One night in the middle of june he told her he was stepping down and that she would be the next clan head of the date family. The entire thought of that though was something that confused her, she wondered more importantly if she would be able to fill the position that was being left there, if she as a girl would be able to hold sway over the men in her family who thought that men seemed to be superior to that of a female. Those thoughts plagued her mind deep into the night , and she got very little sleep for the next week until she was able to finally step up to take the position.

People surprisingly didn’t object though even with her status as the wandering marksman and her fame? She had assumed there would be some nay-sayers in the group, people that thought she wasn’t worth the time and effort that was being put into the family, or people who thought that they could run the family better then her. Yet, there wasn’t a single soul which argued with her fathers decision to hand the family over to her, even at such an early age as 15, and that? Well that notion itself was something that filled her with pride, it made her want to do better for her family than she was doing in previous years, she was wanting to take the date clan to the very heights of power, and fame even though she had no clue how to do it, nor did she have any knowledge about how to run a clan, and yet that wasn’t going to stop her, she would figure it out, and that was why during this period? She spent a lot of time learning about the politics between clans and relationships between the imperial family and the clans that dotted the entirety of japan at that point in time.

Instead she made it so her family was able to enter what would be known as a favored position among the imperial family while forging strong alliances with the remainder of the individuals who seemed to hold power in the world of japan in that particular era, even though all these different alliances where made in secret without individuals who would pry and find ways to use it against her, and as she built her empire brick by brick it seemed that fate had plans for her, even as she wondered how life would be as a clan head, or how she would be if someone managed to beat her in archery, most of those thoughts seemed to run through her head at a single point in time.


Spiritual Awakening Period:
On her 17th birthday everything seemed to change, or atleast she thought she was going crazy. As she woke up in the early morning before anyone else had woken up to go and do her training she had begun to notice strange creatures roaming the world around her, creatures which seemed to be of different origins origins that at the time made her believe she had somehow passed into the realm of the gods and other divine or satanic creatures, even further she began to understand the energy in the world around her in a way that previously she hadn’t been able to understand, the world blossomed and opened up to her in fantastic ways , and even as she saw them it scared her so much, to think about the fact that she might not be alone, that humanity might just be the bottom rung on another even larger foodchain that had yet to be discovered yet? It was that very notion that send her tumbling back to her room, to where she would have shut the screen panel and curled back up under her blanket while she rested on the floor. She didn’t know what to think about these monsters, they seemed so cruel so . . honestly scary that she didn’t even want to go outside , and actually didn’t go outside for the time being, she just stayed in her room for the most part.

Then she began to notice the powers that had begun to blossom in her body, powers that she couldn’t explain, that she couldn’t pin-point or pin down, and these powers seemed to scare her, because she didn’t understand them, such as when she began to draw energy from the air or when she watched that energy take shape in the palm of her handle, settling there in a way that felt natural and for the most part right to her. She hadn’t even understood what had happened, but she had understood that whatever had taken place? Was something which now was changing her in more ways than what she previously had been able to understand or comprehend. She had wanted to get stronger for so long, and now had she been blessed by one of the deity’s or was it that she had been cursed and just now was getting the afteraffects of it? She honestly didn’t know, and didn’t know for the next few weeks that passed after she had been

Instead of understanding it, her powers continued to grow and she begun to figure out that there was more to her powers than just the energy that was running through her veins, or the abilities she gained from it to see things that had become out of the ordinary. Instead she revelled in it, the knowledge that what she was seeing was something that was entirely different from the norm, something so drastically different that it had made her want to dig through the world itself to eventually find out what was making everything tick, the notion that beings out there existed that were more then the mere mortals that seemed to think that they had the strength to rule anything and everything in the world around them . Laughably naive humans which she didn’t even waste the time to tell the time of day to anymore, she had far more important matters to attend to than to focus on them or to answer their stupid questions, instead she focused more on trying to figure out just what she had become, what it meant to be what she was, and most importantly she wanted answers about what she could do with this power,

Training Period:

After another week had passed a woman had appeared at her door step, a woman that no one could see but her, a woman that no one could hear but her. It was a strange notion and strange became even stranger when the woman had introduced herself as Nozomi, and then said she was a quincy, some kind of supernatural warrior, or something like that someone that was similar to her. At first she was skeptical until nozomi began to show the same powers that she possessed, and that tipped her off, nozomi told her that if she wanted to learn to use those powers? That she could learn from her, it was as simple as that, and Rakki pounced on the chance to learn more about what her powers where capable of , and more importantly what she could do with those powers, given the fact that it was actually quite hard to train these powers which she was somehow able to get over night, and yet the training itself was something that she took very seriously, what nozomi asked her to do? She did, she listened and she learned her skills, the trade which was her quincy powers. She not only learned them but as she did each task that was given to her she went from just learning to being quite good at it.

Beyond this the learning period she spent with nozomi was rather short in comparison to many other individuals, she didn’t even get to learn much about the strange blue-haired girl, but rather she had learned the skills that she needed to survive in the world as a quincy, she had learned the basics and learned them well, it wasn’t a matter of just learning to become stronger, given now that she had a spiritual signature she was a prime target for other beings such as hollows and some of the more demonic beasts she had run into over the past few weeks while wandering about with nozomi learning more about her skills and how she was able to improve on them in such a short period of time. Eventually however it was unfortunate but nozomi after Rakki had learned what she needed? Had left Rakki, to go back on her nomadic wanderings, leaving the newly made quincy to explore her powers by herself to find their heights on her own.

Immortality: During the second year after nozomi’s departure Rakki had learned of a special cave in mount fuji in which at the bottom there was a special spring one which allowed for the user to gain what was considered to be eternal life, not imperviousness to damage or anything like that but instead it meant that the user would never age, would never die, it was that notion that had brought her to eventually look for the spring itself, wanting to be able to find and to utilize it for her own gain she set out from her home even as the head of the date clan. Looking for that spring on mount fuji was something she dedicated a ton of time to, as she went through the tree’s on each side of the mountain her silver gaze scanning the very rocks themselves to look for that magical spring which was supposed to be the answer to all her problems. The problems of being able to consolidate power among her people, the problem of being the person who was able to handle the burden of living in an era when people continued to die left and right, she wished to be more then these people, she wanted to attain a state of being in which she was free’d from the shackles of what was considered time and thus she was here searching and eventually?

She found the cave which was told about and began to explore it, rakki’s expression changing as she took in the wonders and the sights with a kind of glee to her which couldn’t be explained. As here was a place that none had been able to get into before, a supernatural cave in which allowed her to eventually if she found the spring at the bottom , to stop aging all together, and she continued to look moving down further and further into the cave, relying on the strange glowing crystals which adorned the sides of the cave and more importantly the sound of steam which was hissing up from the bowels of the earth to collect at the top of the cavern in which it was nestled in, this was the spring she was looking for and eventually she found it, in the very heart of mount fuji she found the spring which had a golden hue to it, and she had stripped down and got into the water expecting some instantaneous thing to take place, however instead? She was greeted with something very different than pain, something that caused her to nearly cry out as she had to grit her teeth to stay conscious.

It was pain, a kind of pain which encompassed every aspect of her being even if she didn’t want it to, this pain caused her to vomit blood as her body was being changed, the spring itself had an effect on causing her reishi absorption to improve, to grow stronger while her body was better changed to fit that massive amount of reishi as it was moving in and out of the body itself. Further it halted the process of aging entirely which was marked by her hair being turned pure white, this being because of the after affect leeching the rest of the pigmentation from her hair and her body leaving her a pure white color as the minerals and energy within the spring that caused this effect locked into place and made it so that she wouldn’t age anymore, never again would she be held captive by the creature that was known as time. After she got out she decided since she was a different being now, an immortal being that she would no longer call herself by her mortal name, instead she would be called Niflheim because she enjoyed that name more than her current name, to her it matched her perfectly rather than not.

P-The Power: After she had gotten out though she had discovered something else, something startling which was she had an unholy level of reishi that was flowing into her body and being expelled from her body at any given point in time this amount of energy was immense and more then that it was quite staggering for her, because she hadn’t known that she would be able to even withdraw this amount of energy in the first place, it was an alien sensation to her, the ability to pull out energy from the surrounding landscape and then be able to mold it or be able to alter it to fit the nature that she wanted it to be, and because of this it took her quite some time to figure out the limitations to her new found power and the abilities that finally seemed to be flowing through her veins. She didn’t understand them well and thus she at first wasn’t really able to control the power that she had gained, and instead floundered it often with disasterous results, it wasn’t because she wished to however, but instead because of the sheer amount of power that was flowing through her body. So she left from the world and decided to hole herself up within the midst of



IV. Equipment




V. Natural Abilities & Skills


Master Marksman: Niflheim is known to be a master marksman due to her many years even as a powerless human training on the bow and the arrow, spending many long hours on it trying to improve and increase the capacity in which she was able to ply this particular trade to the best of her efficiency. This led to her eventually being able to pull off feats with a bow such as when she was 10 she was able to fire off consecutive shots not only scoring fatal wounds for each on a group of bandits, but she did so with a bow that had an 80 pound draw, something which was Absolutely absurd in terms of for most people that age, however unlike those who are considered to be on another plane simply because they had a gift for it, and just kept that gift? She both gifted and worked hard, spending time shooting several hundred arrows a day and even going so far as to be timed while doing so to gain the upper hand with her particular craft and trade, this led to her being able to utilize the bow even as if it was a mere extension of her body, not like it was a seperate instrument.

Some more feats she can do with a bow is astounding such as if needed she can shoot up to three arrows at a time and still hit her mark if she was using a conventional bow and arrow rather than one powered by reishi or the like. Further when pushed she is known to be able to fire off arrows at a truly staggering rate, at the point that instead of it seeming as if she’s firing just a bow, it could be compared to if simply just without spiritual or super-human powers, a whole group of archers rather than having a lone archer on the feild of battle, because of the fact that she has again trained so hard that to her firing off arrows and nocking another arrow then firing again is something that literally takes her the span of not even a second, maybe three seconds after you factor in the time that it takes her to focus and find the location of the person she is shooting at. This is because of the fact , that as a child she would train hours a day on multiple targets having to get a high rate of accuracy or she would have to start all over again, such a specified amount of training led to her having this uncanny accuracy with firing her arrows off, and more specifically making it so that she was able to hit the marks that she was aiming for with startling accuracy rather than just having “okay” accuracy, she is what someone would call a “dead shot” being able to hit most targets she aims at with a conventional bow and arrow.

Beyond this she is known to be able to utilize a vast array of different bows as has come from her long life span which is beyond that of most human beings. This means she is able to adeptly equip , use and take care of different weapons such as cross bows, recurve bow’s, short bow’s , long bow’s, compound bow’s , war bow’s , and any other kind of bow you could think of she has probably tried and is able to utilize it within some level of mastery because of the fact that she has trained extensively on bows, she knows both the way to harness the maximum amount of power out of a bow after it is being show, or even the fastest ways to knock and fire an arrow, all of these things are stuff that she is able to do with a surpisingly high level of efficiency. It is also noted that as a master marksman she is able to fire shots and still hit with deadly accuracy even with a lack of depth perception from a situation in which she was unable to use her eyes to gauge where the opponent was in ratio to her own body. This of course naturally means that in most situations she is able to use the bow without much of a problem, of course granted she isn’t perfect with one.

Finally though her Marksman Ship has been shown to also extend to being able to fire arrows which have different conditions surrounding them, such as in the midst of war because of the plentiful arrow supply. Niflheim was even able to fire arrows which had been slick with blood from her bow without much of a problem, this of course is an example of her ability to knock and fire arrows, seeing as the slickness of the blood didn’t even slow her down from firing her arrows at the opponent., as well it should be noted that while firing these arrows she was able to even utilizing the trajectory of these arrows maintain and kill most targets if not all targets she hit with just a single shot, rather than having to hit the opponent with multiple arrows before they ended up dead. This combined with her ability to fire even with ones depth perception screwed up, or the rate in which she can fire arrows, the angle’s in which she can fire arrows. Or even the amount of arrows she can fire at once all being exceptional, is the reason that she is what any individual probably would consider to be both a master marksman and a master archer when considering the amount of knowledge she has about her craft.

Unruly Strength: In terms of human capacity Niflheim during her years as a powerless human was surprisingly powerful, to the point at the age of 10 she was able to use a bow with an 80 pound draw and draw it back to it’s full draw and then fire it in rapid succession, this is one of the only examples of her strength during her time as a human, thanks to the fact that she is able to utilize her bow with ease thanks to the ability to utilize her muscles with more efficiency when compared to most other human beings. Due to being able to pull back a 80 pound bow without problems , she probably while she isn’t strong in terms of the spiritual world, without any spiritual buffs or fortification, she has the potential to lift probably in the area of 600 pounds without much of a problem, however this is only because of the fact that she every day excercises with an 80pound draw on a bow, drawing it back and then finally firing it until she got to a point where she could whip out arrows in rapid succession without any problem what so ever, this is the staple behind her unruly strength as to why it came about.

However as to it’s applications, it is possible that she could utilize her strength in the manner of throwing a punch with enough force to shatter bone on impact rather than just bruising, or she could pick up a person and or a mall vehicle like a motorcycle and throw it like it weighs nothing, thanks to atleast in the human world, the absurd level of strength she is able to possess, while again when considering the supernatural world she doesn’t have that much strength at all, instead she just has a rather lower then normal amount of strength.


Stamina: In terms of human capacity Niflheim has a hell of a lot of stamina due to her years that she would run multiple miles every morning to only go into the practice of shooting a bow for hours at a time. This naturally means atleast in terms of the human capacity she has what would be known as an insanely high amount of stamina, even though this doesn’t mean she has any extreme amount of luck with individuals such as spiritual beings, but instead means she can run and continue going for long periods of time without much of a problem .

VI. Quincy Skills & Abilities

P-The Power: More a strange ability that is a phenomena of Niflheim’s own abilities as a quincy herself, she possesses what could be considered to be an ungodly absorption ratethis encompassing energy is then stored and used in the form of raw power. Meaning in terms of energy, the reishi she gathers from the atmosphere, or even from other dimensions is considerably greater than the average quincy, to the point that at it’s height the amount of energy this ability draws in is enough to cause the area within 2 miles to be covered in a dense fog that is raw reishi in it’s purest state, dense enough is her reishi that the radius here is going to be obscured depending on how much energy she is actually using, but in general situations? This radius is covered constantly in the massive amount of reishi that she is drawing in at any given point in time, as while most quincy have their blut, or a mastery in flash step? When she truly learned to harness her power after nozomi left all those years ago and had bathed in a spring which altered her body to better fit the art of reishi absorption and manipulation.

The power to draw in immense amounts of reishi in a very very short period of time, that is what her power boils down into when considered as P-the Power , rather than this however being a part of her energy reserves, it is considerably different as essentially there is considered to be “A Constant Stream” Of energy that is going into her body from the spiritual energy present in the realm around her. Drawn from both the air, the ground, and other sources indiscriminately with surprising efficiency that makes this essentially an ability that governs her reishi intake on a very fundamental level because P-The Power works on two fronts when involving the truly ungodly amount of reishi absorption that she has which is added on top of an already monstrous spiritual energy signature.

Now What does this mean in theoretical terms? It means in theory she has the ability to draw in an unlimited amount of energy when it’s considered through her ability if her body is able to withstand that drain, abuse and damage itself in the long run, so yes in theory so long as there is free floating energy moving around her body she can continue to draw from that energy and compound it around her body in that “reishi” field that can be visibly seen and discerned in the 2 mile radius, because energy is constantly being drawn in with her as the epicenter, meaning in a way you could consider this to just be a voracious version of the quincy’s natural reishi absorption ability.

However the problem is this ability to draw in energy at an insanely high rate and even to this level is difficult to maintain over a long period of time, meaning even if she can “theoretically” produce and absorb an insane amount of energy that borders upon the level of infinity, it doesn’t mean she is able to “Maintain” that energy for long periods of time, and it especially doesn’t mean that when in action it doesn’t cause some serious repercussions to her body when abused, because of this P-The Power itself is something that is heavily regulated, working off of her energy reserves and body’s condition in ratio to the amount of energy she has already drawn inside of her, beyond this there is something else about P the power, which is that it is defined in percentiles. Such as she can maintain a certain amount of P-The Power’s Percent based on a certain tier, making it so that say she is 1 tier for maybe 1 post she could essentially open up the floodgates and use P-The Power to its full potential but then the repercussions of that might be she can’t use P-The Power for the remainder of the thread, or even it could be that due to the strain of using such a massive amount of energy that she channels through her body through the energy absorption technique of P the Power it might end up being that the consequences of overextending the duration at any given % it might end up being death or a long term coma depending on what is going on below are the explanations of absorption % and what these things entail.

0-10% absorption: This is where P-The Power is toned down to roughly absorbing 10% of all energy that is drawn into the vicinity around her. Roughly speaking at this point she is only absorbing the amount of energy equivalent to someone 2 tiers below her, I.E at 10% if she was 0-3 or 0-2 she would be for all intents and purposes on the same energy tier as a 0-4 or 0-5. This is because P-The Power makes up a vast majority of her energy reserves given because of this absurd energy absorption technique it requires the quincy herself to constantly expel and absorb energy at absurd rates so that she can utilize this technique in any given point in time. Beyond this at 10% you don’t really see the haze of reishi that is being drawn into her body at a normal point in time, instead due to the manner at which her body is putting the energy she’s absorbing into her body it should be easy to discern this stage. As well there is a unique Marking on her Shoulder known as P-the Power Gauge, because of this gauge you can discern visibly what % she is at, meaning in the case of her being at 10% she would only have P- and the 10 after it.

Beyond this at 10% her quincy abilities are going to be limited to the energy tier that she is at, I.E if she is originally 0-2 her energy tier at 10% would be 0-4, and because of this her abilities would only match the skills that are comparable to that of a 0-4, this is because her energy absorption rate is considered to be tied in with her tier, as her body itself doesn’t hold much energy, instead the intense energy she exudes and blows out into the environment is proportionate to the amount of energy that she is absorbing at any given point in time. Now As for Sustainability, in terms of how it is, she would be able to maintain her energy at the 10% margin indefinitively given this amount of energy absorption from the environment is comparable to a reiatsu signature of a small ocean, a prominent force , which would be fairly powerful, but not as overwhelming as one might feel if she was in the higher echelons of her abilities power.

20% This is the 20% margin of P-The Power, at this point aesthetically you would notice a P-20 Tattooed on her shoulder, and this would be the first indicator of the energy that she would be exuding from her body at any given point in time. Now in terms of energy she would be able to increase the margin of her reishi output dramatically given at 20% this is when you begin to see the visible manifestation of reishi in the air due to the rate of energy absorption that is taking place. Depending on output ratio what this means is that those of a similar tier to her in her 20% reishi state will begin to feel a heavy weight bearing down on them, given that while she doesn’t have much of an energy reserve she does however have a massive amount of spiritual energy that is being drawn into her body and then violently expelled on the environment around her in the form of raw power. This means there are some side-effects in terms of the energies effects on the environment.

For example if she decided at this point to release her energy and blast it out at the environment, she could compress and then cause the energy to expand and create something with the semblance of a small bomb, or an explosion due to the violent nature of her literally ejecting the energy she has stored up in her body into the world around her. Other examples at this point would include that she would be able to utilize her energy at a vast level, orchestrating wide bombings with her quincy bow, or being able to erect barriers made from pure reishi in the world around her, while however this is getting into the range that she can comfortably utilize indefinitively given this is still a seriously toned down level of her energy which in the theoretical is at the level of near-infinite reishi absorption, however for now, she only is able to utilize 20% of the total capacity of her reishi’s absorption rate, meaning she would be roughly at one and a half tiers lower, I.E if she was 0-2 she would be 0-4+ now in her energy tier standing.

30% The thirty % Mark is indicated similarly to the 20% mark, the P Marking on her shoulder gets a 30 by it, and that heavy weight becomes even heavier. Around this point individuals would begin to see the visible manifestation of reishi at the quarter mile mark, the thick saturation being attributed to her P-The Power’s ability dragging energy in from the radius around her and then concentrating it in that extremely small point. This would be because of the fact that while in use, she is essentially pulling in immense amounts of energy and then utilizing that energy which naturally will leave run off, Meaning that at this point she will be able to utilize 30% of her maximum potential, however the catch is that at this point, she can only utilize this in a combat setting, given the nature of her ability to rapidly draw in and then expunge the energy into the environment she has some detrimental effects in terms of what happens in the radius of 20 feet around her.

At the 20 ft radius due to the energy she is drawing in , and then in turn constantly expelling so that she can draw in more energy it means that she is going to for the moment at least have a corona of blue energy encasing her form, while this energy itself is harmless, it can be used to cause effects similar to that of an explosion which will encompass a given radius around her, [400-500ft] in terms of just from violently expelling her energy into the world around her.

Beyond this due to how her body functions instead of being 1.5 tiers lower than her actual tier she would only be a tier lower, meaning that if she was 0-2 instead of being 0-2 she would be 0-3 because of the fact that through this method her tier drops and changes because of how her body as explained before is actually expelling and then drawing energy inside of itself at a high rate, meaning that she will only be at a tier lower than what her normal tier is, because this is the tier her body is naturally able to handle. Also because of the fact she isn’t at her full powered tier yet at 30% means that she can utilize this level of “P-The Power” without repercussion or in essence she can utilize it for essentially an extended period of time [30+ turns] even with large amounts of energy consumption because of the fact that p-the power has limits to how much energy she can naturally absorb being it’s only at 30% of her full potential but it still means that she is more than capable of utilizing this energy to for example, spam off a massive amount of quincy arrows without feeling winded or stuff similar to that .

40% at this point as explained in the previous area the marking on her shoulder will show a p-40 marking standing for her p-the power ability being at 40% this is going to be equivalent to being only half a tier lower than her actual tier for starters. Meaning say in example if she was 0-2 she would be 0-3+, because of the fact this is operating at roughly 40% of her full ability in terms of utilizing her P-The Power ability which is a unique variant of reishi absorption. Beyond this, it should be noted that at this stage the reishi absorption will be equivalent to that of a half mile radius in terms of where the reishi itself is in a state of visibly being able to be discerned. This is because of the vast amount of energy at this point that is being drug through that unique body of hers, and how it is physically affecting the world around her. Given at this stage there are some interesting effects in terms of what happens to quincy’s and other individuals who are able to drain reishi from the air around them given the over-abundance that is going to be seen here.

Energy increase: At this point due to the amount of reishi that is concentrated in the epicenter of a half mile around her it would be easy to argue at this point atleast for those who work on some kind of energy drain principle in relation to reishi in the world around them that they would gain some kind of boost. This “Boost” is essentially going to be seen in the form of a 20% increase in over all effectiveness in their respective skills, now why does this happen? Quite simply it is because especially for the quincy around her the energy itself is already there, similar to how in places of great spiritual concentration such as karakura central, hueco mundo or the soul society, quincies have an easier time of gathering reishi particles from the air around them. All she is doing is through her ability as a byproduct is simulating the same situation only on a vastly more concentrated scale, meaning in short that for her fellow quincies they will see first off a 20% increase in their reishi gathering ability from the concentrated reishi field that is p-the power.

Beyond this for those at the heights of reishi absorption, [master and grand masters] they might in the vicinity of her ungodly unique reishi absorption skill p-the power be able to utilize their quincy bows with a 20% increase in the amount of arrows they can fire. This is because for these practitioners at the height of their respective fields, they will be able to have a much more efficient time of utilizing the energy that is being doled out into the world around them, and because of this it essentially means that for these few people, the increase is going to have more effects. Not because she herself is doing anything, but rather instead because these individuals simply will have an easier time of gathering that concentrated reishi field that has already surrounded her body in the first place.

Finally the last change isn’t a benefit to those around her but rather a change in the reishi color that is surrounding her body. It will change to become a silver color, similar to that of the reflective light of the moon. This is because with the high concentration of reishi and the ability that is P-The Power it would make sense that she would have an unique reishi color, rather than just that of simple reishi. That reishi color is stated here, given her own reishi once in high enough concentration is that of a silver color. Beyond this it should also be noted since this isn’t actually at her powered tier, she is able to utilize this amount of energy for still a fairly unlimited amount of time [30+ turns] because she hasn’t yet reached her actual power tier, as this is still in terms of the drain below what her power tier actually is. Hence why she can utilize it for such a long period of time.

50% At 50% the markings remain the same on her body the only difference being the p marking has a 50 by it now. This is where she hits her powered tier, meaning if she was originally 0-2 she now would be 0-2, all her abilities and powers would reflect that tier, and she would be able to utilize the energy to it’s dizzying heights for an extended duration. Now the radius of her skill would also extend, encompassing the radius of roughly a mile, in which the reishi itself becomes concentrated to the point of visibly being seen. This is because as explained before P-The Power is rapidly drawing energy into the world around it, making it so that while in use? P-The Power shows the abundance of energy that is prevalent throughout her body thanks to it’s unique type even amongst the quincy, allowing her to reach truly dizzying heights when needed. But beyond this the only change now is that if she goes any higher than this? The Repercussions change in terms of what it does to her body. Given figuratively speaking you could consider to body to be a “container” and as with all containers there is physically only so much that it can contain within it without some kind of detrimental overflow or critical failure, the concept is the same here.

Brimming with power she might be because of P-the Power at this point, however being that she is at 50% or her body’s natural state of optimal power, means that this is her body’s current “Rating” or the amount of power she can utilize without any negative repercussions, deficits or long term drawbacks. As such going any higher than 50% for her in P-The power generally has some kind of negative backlash, at 60-70% it might not be that bad, but when getting into the higher echelons of the skill, there can be serious or even fatal repercussions that can end up causing a ton of damage to the body and the user, because every 10% or phase above 50% is another 10% beyond what the body is naturally “rated” to hold, making it so that she can only utilize these ratings for increasingly short periods of time. Currently at 50% she can still utilize this overbrimming field of power for around 30+ turns without difficulty, as she can with all her previous states.

60% At 60% is where we begin to see the real changes in her ability, as stated previously at this point she has technically gone past her bodies rating, as such utilizing this amount of energy comes at a price. For her ascending into this level of power comes at the price of blood beginning to flow from her eyes, meaning there is gradual blood loss at this point which can be maintained at it’s normal rate for roughly 12 turns without a problem. After 12 turns however? The amount of strain on the body becomes too much and stepping over this boundary causes symptoms similar to cardiac arrest or at the very least she will pass out from the strain that is being emitted on her body, given at this point as explained before? She is beyond her natural bodies rating of how much energy it is naturally able to hold, and as such eventually her body is going to give or falter.

The Upside for this though? It’s quite simple her energy will increase comparatively, she gets 20% stronger than those of her power tier in terms of the amount of energy she is drawing in at a given point, meaning if her p-the power at 50% is her 100% in terms of her energy, than p-60 the marking that appears upon her shoulder after ascending into her heightened state of energy is her 120% in terms of the amount of energy she is drawing and expelling from her body at any given point in time, making it so that the power rating and the amount of energy being exuded are on a fundamental vastly different, given her body is intaking at this point more than it can naturally take in or naturally can expel and this naturally generates a state of “runoff.” It is this run off that increases the radius of the thick veil of visible supernatural energy that can be both seen and wholly utilized by her quincy brethren. So at 60% her radius increases to a whopping 1.25 or 1 ¼ of a mile. In this radius the effects mentioned for 40% and above will become active for quincy’s that are in her general area.

70% At 70% the marking on her shoulder changes to p 70 but the only change other then that in terms of that marking would be the coloration. Going from a simple black it turns the color of the reishi that adorns her body and saturates the very world around her. Becoming essentially a silverish hue, this is the first marking of entering what is known as the “critical” three states of her reishi absorption ability known as p the power. This first state is the entry level, it can be maintained for an equivalency of 8 posts without much of a problem so long as she is in a tier range of 0-5 or above any lower and this range is shortened by 4 turns meaning she can only acess this realm of power for 4 turns if she is under the 0 tier threshold. Further then this, the energy that is expanding from her body due to the excess runoff of reishi that is being drawn into her body at any given point in time with increase further, instead of being around the threshold of 1.25 miles it will increase even further to a mile and a half radius, staggering but the only difference in this radius is that in terms of visbility, the natural visbility will be marginally reduced given the fog of reishi will condense into essentially a blizzard of raw energy.

Further in this mile and a half the effects of 40% and above are still in effect, but her energy will take a staggering 20% increase as well, and the passive effect of blood running from her eyes will increase in flow marginally due to the sheer amount of energy that her body at any given point in time will be naturally taking in and at the same time expelling. Given this radius is equivalent to her in all honesty taking in 140% of her max potential of energy. Meaning she is 40% above the amount that she is normally able to draw in at any given point in time. Arguably this means there are going to be repercussions from her even trying to utilize such a massive amount of energy. I.E going over the 8 post duration that she can utilize this amount of energy can cause repercussions on the level of comatose states, a complete thread that she cannot utilize her p-the power ability or even in extreme cases of over use. [double the time in use in comparison to what is recommended] she could even face consequencers on par with that of death by the body literally erupting from the energy contained becoming too much for the body to bear.

80% At the 80% marking we enter what is known as the “medium critical zone” this zone is where the energy itself becomes thick and tangible within the air around it. Beyond this the effects of entering this zone is equivalent to 160% of her max energy or even from ingesting such a staggering amount of power it could be argued at this point she would be nearing the amount of energy needed to pull off feats such as destroy vast patches of land, or erase cities off of the map from the amount of energy that she is able to jetison out into the world in a short period of time. Note the only major differences now in comparison to how it originally was , is instead of 8 turns the duration of use has been shortened to 6 turns, going beyond that however causes for the small amount of bleeding that is around her eyes to turn into heavy bleeding from her pours , as well as in extreme situations, coma, death, and more importantly she will lose her ability to use p-the power for three threads because of the amount of energy going through her body at any given point in time being vastly greater than even in her 70% form.

Now the only other change is that at this point her eyes will glow silver and there will be a silver corona that is moving around her body at all points in time, beyond this the range that was present increases to a staggering 1.75 miles due to the excess run off of energy that is going through her body at this point in time. Beyond that? There is also the concept of “weight” that occurs when an individual forces her to enter this level of energy at any given point in time. The weight on those who are only three tiers lower than her can be considered to cause shortness of breath, or even in extreme situations could cause those who are low on energy to pass out. This is because of the sheer amount of spiritual energy that is being drawn into her body at this point , from any real given point in time.

[event only] 90% At 90% the only real change is her reishi color changes once more, upon entering what is considered “high critical” state, her reishi changes from that silverish hue to one of a brilliant gold. This is because the amount of reishi that is being drawn into her body condenses and then creates this brilliant hue that will literally in essence function to light up the world around her for staters from the massive amount of energy that she is both drawing into her body and at the same time expelling from her body at the same amount of time. Primarily speaking the only other noticable change in her body at this point would be the amount of energy that is being exuded. As well as the radius of her energy as it expands outwards, Meaning this golden hue is seen from the condensed reishi in a roughly 1.8 mile radius due to the amount of energy that is just there. However it should be noted that this energy isn’t harming anyone or the environment due to it just being the visible manifestation of gathered reishi in the air.

Now the limit for utilizing this state of energy is 4 posts, going over that will first cause her to loose the ability to gather reishi for a week in real life time, because of this fact it means that during that time or the duration of the threads within that time frame, she becomes literally unable to use her spiritual energy, further then this? If she then goes any more than 2 turns over the critical state of energy use that is her 90% she has a side affect which is that her body itself will begin to break down, break apart and then eventually she will die if she goes into the double the period of use that she is able to use this for fesibly. This is because again of the insane amount of reishi that is both being drawn into and leaving her body at the exact same point in time.

[Quincy Event Only] 100%


C-The Control: Another “ability” Is the abnormal amount of control that Niflheim exherts over that unruly amount of reishi that she is able to drawn from the air around her at any given point in time. More a “gift” than what could be considered even the height of the skill that quincies seem to adore. Her own Reishi Manipulation and control is only outshone by the rate at which she absorbs reishi at any given point in time, as such this “Ability” is something that is near the pinnacle for practitioners or those who are specifically control and reishi -type quincies. Given in terms of what she can do with her control? It’s quite simple, given an example she can not only handle the immense strain of the otherworldly ability known as p-the power with little to no effort unless in the upper echelons of the skill, but she can even go to the point of controlling and manipulating the flow of reishi in the world around her to give rise to a desired effect. Such as if she wanted to, with just a prod of her will and an image in her head, she could pull off feats such as creating vast constructs out of reishi just given rise from the fancy of her infallible subconscious or conscious mind.

This is because unlike most reishi control which is given rise by merely moving reishi to form arrows bows or other simple quincy craft? Her ability is an entirely different monster all together, given it is tied to her imagination, her thoughts, desires, and conscious and unconscious thoughts/ commands. Which means because of this she has the ability to simply control the reishi as if it is literally an extension of her body, as it is something as easy to her as breathing and blinking, walking or even sleeping. It is an integral part of herself that makes it so that while unlike most who have to work at the ability from a young age she is what people would consider to be a born genius of reishi manipulation, someone who was put on a pedistal at a very young age as one of those nearing the very dizzying heights of reishi manipulation and absorption, and because of this , her abilities which are centered around this unruly control and the ability to dominate and bend reishi to her will in such an unorthodox manner, is one of the things that defines what she can do with this ability in the first place.

Beyond this? She is fully capable of taking reishi and even pulling off feats such as turning it into a force or “stream” which can be controlled and whipped around the body as metaphysical force to slam into her attackers, or even she could repair buildings which are comprised of reishi without much of a problem, due to the ability she has to control over reishi in the first place being on such a high scale, that it literally allows her to in some instances hold a grip over reishi that can be considered to be while not that of a gods, something that is only slightly less than that of a deity’s, in terms of the overall understanding of reishi flow, and then her ability to control that reishi flow on a whim as if it is just a part of her, that is the real trick behind the gift that is c- the control, Overwhelming reishi control, and dominance over that reishi in which she has gained control over.

Finally C-The Control takes this a step further, given what it does is that is makes it so that she has a 10% increase in quincy related skills, thanks to the sheer grasp she has over her reishi control, which is the staple of all quincy abilities, which are all dependant on energy and in particular spiritual energy. So what this means is thanks to her control she is essentially 10% stronger than most quincy of her skill level in terms of her racial based skills, I.E the amount of arrows she could shoot would be 10% more then someone who was of her same skill, or her blut would be 10% stronger than someone of the same skill level as she was. Not because she was any better at those skills then those people are, but instead because she simply knows how to utilize her reishi to get a better effect.

Quincy Arrow Creation/Manipulation: Due to her great prowess with reishi manipulation and her ability that is p-the power and c-the control, her ability to create the standard quincy arrow is slightly different due to the manner in which her ability centers around the high rate of reishi absorption and the extremely reishi control oriented nature of her abilities. Meaning first off seeing as she can draw in vast quantities of reishi it would stand to argue she can fire off a rather high amount of arrows in a turn in terms of just pumping out sheer arrow after arrow. Meaning for all intents and purposes she has a general limit of 1,200 arrows per turn if she is pushing it. Although that would be considered at the extreme end of the spectrum rather than the end that is more “normal” or for practical use seeing as her ability isn’t actually centered around the raw amount of arrows that she can fire off at any given time, instead she has the unique ability to change the property of her arrows and on top of that she even has abilities such as being able to manipulate the trajectory of a few select arrows after they are fired from her bow itself, in such a way that in the more prominent displays of the manipulation aspect of her quincy arrows, so long as she keeps it to a reasonable amount she can even pull off feats such as surrounding herself with arrows and then manipulating them much in the same way for example byakuya manipulate senbonzakura she is able to control the trajectory of those arrows and guide them around rather than having them simply dissipate on contact.

Some other skills with her quincy arrow manipulation include thanks to her immense grasp over reishi the ability to change the density, rate of fire ,and even to an extent the property of the reishi itself that is imbedded in the arrow, giving her the ability to house quite the variation of different quincy arrows, which have all their own given rates of firing, or even certain affects that are specific to that particular type of quincy arrow, meaning while in terms of sheer output, she might not be the strongest quincy around, but she certainly has variety when considering the different arrows she has in her arsenal, some of which will be listed below.

Controlled Arrows: This is the arrows that are touched upon in the quincy arrow creation and manipulation overveiw. With these arrows she first off has the unique power to control them when within a 400 meter radius in the manner of either for quicker results using direct hand motions, or for results that are hidden more so than obvious she can control these arrows via the medium of her mind, however like most things when doing it telepathically it means that these arrows themselves will only move at around 400 miles an hour rather than at speeds which rival mach 1 as they can reach when she is doing direct control via her hands her eyes and other methods that involve her using her physical body in some way to guide the arrows that she has created to reach their desired destination. Now one of the other aspects of these arrows is unlike a normal quincy arrow which dissipates after firing in a set amount of time, these arrows don’t have a set time limit in terms of how long they are out on the field given she can directly replenish these arrows by having them individually absorb reishi from the air itself rather than from her body. The only downside of course to this is that for every “arrow” that she has active in this manner it means she has 50 less arrows that she can utilize from her quincy bow outright in a normal manner. This of course is because she has to divert some of her absorption capacity and her mind to constantly monitor these arrows.

Beyond this the arrows only dissipate after they strike an object, 6 turns pass, or she is unable to spread her attention to the arrows anymore, in which cases the recharge time for this ability is roughly 3-4 turns before she is able to recreate the arrows themselves and utilize them for combat once more. Beyond these shortcomings there is also the fact that she can only create up to 15 of these arrows at a time due to both distribution and generalized energy drain from the arrows themselves.

HyperSonic Arrow: Another type of arrow which focuses on taking the reishi and accelerating the rate that it is being expelled, and finally taking that expelled reishi and focusing it out the back of the arrows for a truly explosive acceleration is the guiding concept behind her HyperSonic Arrows. The Simple explanation is that these are arrows that are at least four times the speed of sound at their slowest and at their fastest can be up to six times the speed of sound due to the manner in which they are being utilized. Because of the reishi expulsion rate of the arrows however there is the side effect that these arrows generally take up to three times the amount of reishi of her regular quincy arrows causing for there to be a stark difference in terms of the amount of hypersonic arrows she can use versus regular arrows. As currently she is only able to utilize hyper sonic arrows at a rate of around fifty per post, due to both the amount of reishi involved and as well the strain on the quincy bow and her body to withstand both the initial shockwave upon releasing the arrow, and further the secondary shock wave that rips through the air after it gets up to thirty feet from the person who fired it’s body in the first place, these two shockwaves make it so that yes theoretically without any outside influences such as the shockwaves or energy drain she could fire these for an indefinite amount of turns. However due to the wear and tear that is caused from even conjuring up something that can move at such a wickedly fast speed, it makes it so that there is minute damage occuring to the body in the form of backlash from those shockwaves, as such she can only utilize this method of arrow firing for roughly 5 posts in normal situations, and 7-8 posts if she wants to cause injuries to her arms in particular.

Injuries to her arms include numbness, inability to use the arms for two turns following, or even her being unable to fire arrows for three to four turns in thread.

Bolts: Another type of arrow that she has been able to harness and create with her reishi is a bolt. Given that she is in the unique case of having two bows. Now what this means for her is that in terms of regular arrows she can fire those just fine, but because of her bolts she has the unique potential to fire arrows that are meant for heavy penetration rather than the normal quincy arrows or even her hyper sonic or the arrows that she controls. Hence why these arrows are able to punch through defenses of foes without much of a problem, the trade of being of course that while they punch through armor and weapons like butter , they are vastly smaller and more heavy-set than the average quincy arrow, as they use roughly the same amount of reishi with the only difference that these are compounded down into roughly a shape that is around a third the size of the standard quincy arrow. Which means that the concentration of reishi is 3x as dense which is one of the key factors which allows these arrows to have so much penetrative force in the first place.

Beyond this the other major difference that is found when you are comparing the arrows to the bolts is the range of a bolt in comparison to the range of an arrow. The bolts of course are smaller thus they can move at a higher rate of speed. That being said they also because of this are able to travel a hell of alot farther than the standard arrow that is fired from a quincy bow. In her case it means she is able to fire in the case of bolts, to a distance of roughly twice that of her standard quincy arrows, this coupled with the small size that they have in terms of her regular bolts, it combines to make it so that while in use they are truly a formidable weapon in the quincy’s sternritter grandmasters arsenal, given these bolts also have the other fact that they can be fired multiple times in rapid succession or multiple arrows at the same time if need be.

ENTER THE DEPTHS

Artist: Mogeko Castle - Song: N/A - Word Count: N/A

- Quincy Skills Cont

Quincy War Bow: A unique ability that she gained over her thousand years of life, through training more than anything else, the art of the quincy war-bow was created when she drastically increased the amount of reishi that she was pumping into her bow or her crossbow. This created a boost in power and even made it so that unlike most quincy this unique quincy ability based off of the natural ability to conjure up a spirit weapon was born. What it does is simple, similar to a shinigami’s released state, the Quincy War Bow is a state that is higher than the base state in which all quincy are in, and yet it is lower than vollstandig the pinnacle of a quincy’s power. As such this release has some benifits which are unique to it, as well as the concept behind it being instead of focusing the reishi into the arrows, one releases the restrictions on their spirit weapon by doubling the flow which causes the weapon itself to change shape to fit that requirement, beyond this with the quincy war-bow release the individuals using it will find some affects taking place, such as in this state the quincy’s respective skills are going to be increased in terms of their marksmanship and their reishi absorption because of the fact that this ability in itself for a time increases the quincy’s abilities in ratio to the elevated amount of reishi that is being drawn in.

That being said the similarity between this ability and the normal vollstandig is that the quincies using it must have an absurd amount of reishi absorption or an absurd amount of reishi at their disposal due to the fact that one of the consequences about using this skill in the first place is that while not on par with the letz stil in which it gives an absurd boost in energy to the point that it can even boost tiers, it also has the medium that the ability itself doesn’t remove all of the powers of the quincy either. Instead this ability is imperfect in regards to the fact that while it gives an immediate increase in marksmanship and reishi absorption / Manipulation it does in return after the ability stops drop both of those area’s by roughly 50% or puts them at half power instead of her being able to utilize either one at their full capacity because of the fact that this essentially makes it so that due to the energy increase that is present in Quincy War Bow there is an equivalent backlash.

But thanks to this while in quincy war bow the quincy in question will find both marksman ship and reishi absorption / manipulation potential being doubled for the 8 turns in which the ability itself can be activated. Beyond this during that time, it should be noted that the quincy’s using this ability will have a much greater reishi usage given things like firing rate and the power behind the blows are both increased by 25% meaning while normally her skills are only at the threshold of 100% at this point her skills all respectively will be at a staggering 125% of their normal power, meaning while in her normal state she might be only able to fire 1000 arrows, but in this state she would be able to utilize and fire up to 1250 arrows a turn, or another example is that she’s only normally able to fire 50 of her hypersonic arrows a turn, well in this quincy war-bow state due to the increase in her skills she is enabled to utilize up to 75 hyper sonic arrows within the span of a turn.

In this way Her Quincy War Bow form does give out an immense powerup when compared to other quincy in base state, while at the same time being no where near the amount of power given from a vollstandig state. However still because the body is using a vast amount of reishi to even supply this form [ even with reishi absorption] means that the body is only able to keep this ability up for so long, roughly being around 8 turns and afterwards not only does her reishi absorption and her marksmanship drop from 100% to 50% she also will be burnt out, due to the immense amount of energy that is present in this state meaning that she will be sloppy or need atleast 5 turns of time in which her speed will also drop a tier.


VI. Spirit Weapon


Spirit Weapon Name:
Spirit Weapon Appearance/Functions : [See Malleability To explain these weapons ]

Bow of Lucifer [ AOE Weapon See Weapon Skill ] This weapon is a Single Shot type of the AOE class of this particular skill. It’s appearance is that of a single large bow that radiate light similar to that of a star, in terms of size it is roughly around fifty feet in length. In terms of use this weapon is a AOE class due to the fact that all bows other than Bow of Lucifer are dispelled when this one is brought out, reishi will be diverted into the singular use of this bow other than attack or defense.

Now what this grants is that from this bow, it has a penetrative power that is able to punch through defenses of the same tier or a tier higher [unless 0-1] without much trouble, because the power of a single shot of this bow is over fifty times stronger than a single shot from a standard bow, in a half charged state. In a fully charged state the bow’s power is over seventy times stronger than that of a standard bow. Of course because of this a single shot is comparable in the upper tiers to that of firing something similar to a cero oscuras. Other things of note is that once fired the bow itself cannot be fired again that turn, and any other bows that are changed out with this one cannot be used until the following turn.

Comet of Decay[ AOE Class ] This weapon is an excessive output type. Being a multi shot type weapon, it can fire up to three times the amount that normally could be fired per turn. The price for this is of course that the shots themselves are maybe a third the power of a standard bow’s arrow. In terms of how it looks the bow itself is a crossbow with an extremely long cartridge attached as well as having several slots for firing arrows from at a time.

General Bow: The general bow’s appearance is that of a crystalline bow, roughly six feet in height with a blue string running down the back, other than that the only noteworthy thing about it would be that the bow itself is completely see through and has a golden silver aura to it when in use. The amount of arrows firable is around a thousand in a single turn. No more than that can be fired due to that being the max firing rate of the user, these arrows will have the standard power of a standard shot from someone of her tier. There are no Consequences for using this particular weapon.
Spirit Weapon Abilities:

Malleability:There are some unique characteristics about Niflheim’s spirit weapon. One of them is that the weapon itself is formless, it doesn’t in it’s base state have a single form. It is instead completely without shape, to the naked eye it may be perceived as a mist or something of a similar nature rather than a concrete weapon. This of course is because of the user’s own nature being that of both reishi absorption and control. Because of this her “Weapons” Appearance is dictated by what she forms her reishi into, in this fashion she theoretically has an overabundance of weapons within her arsenal however because of this her weapon itself is limited through a few factors.

One is that the more weapons she has out on the battlefield at a time, the less time she can have them active and the greater the repercussions will be. For example, she can keep a single weapon on the battlefield indefinitely while she can keep two on the battlefield for maybe 15 turns in a normal situation. From there every two weapons added onto this decrease it by
, because of the fact each weapon theoretically will be able to fire the same amount of arrows from them as any other weapon would by its lonesome. This increase in firepower naturally means the amount of energy being drained is drastically increasing with each weapon introduced, and this of course means her reserves are being depleted at a truly exponential rate.

Second is that weapons produced have either two options. She can summon two types of weapons from different sub types of bow or sword. In example she could possibly use this ability which is only possible through her control to create in one hand a long bow, and in the other hand she might be able to create a cross bow. In this way her arsenals are rather vast, because the point in here is that either she can replicate the type of weapon she has on hand. Or she can use two different types of weapon it simply depends on how it is being used and for what it is being used for.

Of course this doesn’t mean she can create endless amounts of weapons or use an endless amount of weapons from any class I.e Sword, Axe, Bow, Dagger ect. Currently she can only utilize the Bow and the Katana of the sword class. Another thing is this ability naturally caps itself to keep the amount of weapons down to a certain amount , which is currently at maximum she can have up to 12 bows active if of a single type, and only two weapons of different class active. I.E sword and bow.

Finally this ability even though it is strong has a pretty high toll as well, I.E if she used twelve weapons at once through the ability known as Malleability she would instead only be able to use that for at maximum three turns, and then she would be wasted for the rest of the thread, as in she would be unable to fight due to the strain it would put on the body. As for anything less than that. Over 10 weapons takes around 9 turns to recover from, and can be used for 5 turns. In this fashion if it’s 8, it would take 7 turns to recover from, and could be used for 7 turns. 6 would be 5 turns recovery 9 turns use. Four would be 5 turns recovery 11 turns use. Two would be 3 turns recovery 15 turns use.

Beyond this any other thing that should be noted is a class has any different type but they are considered either general weapons or penetrative weapons/ AOE weapons for those that are ranged, and Two handed, Heavy or Single hand for swords.

General weapons: Weapons that are similar to a simple bow. They have the same penetrative power and arrows per minute as what the user normally would be able to do. They have nothing special about them, and are the type that currently can be duplicated with ease.

Penetrative Weapons: Weapons that are similar to a crossbow or a sniper rifle. These weapons have a firing rate that is half or a quarter that of a general weapon, however the benefit of them is that while having a low firing rate they have either double or four times the penetrative power of a typical weapon for that tier.

AOE Weapons: Weapons that either can be considered one of two types. A single shot type which is a weapon that can only fire once a turn, like a rediculously large bow. Or a weapon that while the firing output is maybe double or triple that of a normal weapon their over all damage is half or three times weaker than the normal General weapon, these would be recurve bows, or maybe other types of special weapons, like if it was a gun it would be like a machine gun verses a RPG.
