Appearance:

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] 69

Logan has midnight black hair that comes across his face and reaches down passed his ears. His eyes are a metallic silver that some people, usually girls, go crazy for when they see. He was always said to be an extremely good looking man and not just by women, but men as well. He stands at nice height of six foot five, is slender, yet has a muscular build. He always seems stiff when he walks, but in truth just has very good posture, always keeps his head high and his back straight. Rarely will he relax to the point where he slouches.

PERSONALITY || TRAITS
____________________________

Calm/Quiet: Logan is a quiet person by nature. He rarely talks by his own choice, but at the same time is a very good listener. He has no problem sitting for hours and hearing what someone else might be going through. Listening to people makes him feel like there is more in the world than what he sees, some good and some bad. He always keeps himself calm and rather focused. He rarely loses his cool or panics. He doesn't show anger either, whether he feels it or not. If he actually does show his anger, that usually means something very big has happened and not many people will want to stand in his way.

A Good Man: Unlike what most would think, Logan is a good man. Many think by his actions and refusal to speak that he is conceited, selfish, or thinks highly of only himself. This thought process is wrong. The fact of the matter is, he's very kind and quite the gentleman. Where people would walk passed an old lady who dropped her bags, he would hurry to her side. If a young woman is walking towards a door, he'd move quicker just to get there before her and open it so she didn't have to. There have even been times on rainy days that he was known to walk next to a person so cars would not splash water on them and only hit him.

Mysterious: Logan is considered mysterious for multiple reasons. One being his lack of speech, another being his quiet and calm nature, and then there is the fact that he doesn't tell anyone anything about himself, where he's been, and does his best to not have to use his full power on anyone. Since he is alone most of the time he doesn't have really any friends. There are times he will be seen walking through the alleys of cities, but most of the time keeps himself hidden.

A Loner: Logan doesn't like to be bothered. He is a silent man for a reason, and prefers his normal life to stay that way. He walks alone, fights alone, eats alone, and more than likely plans to die alone. It's not a lifestyle he had first chosen for himself, but at this point he doesn't know how else to be. No one has come along to switch up the way he is, so he doesn't think that it will be changing any time soon.

BACKGROUND || THEIR PAST
____________________________

Background/History: Logan was born on January first of the year 1952, in Saint Louis Missouri of the United States. His mother's name was Linda and his father's name was John. He had an older sister named Nancy as well. His family was a very strict one, especially his father. From the moment he could successfully walk, it seemed, he was taught to be a gentleman. He was forced to keep perfect posture when walking and sitting. Certain mannerisms were heavily practiced when at the dinner table or around guests. This way of life was carved into his being, into his soul, all before he turned ten years old. His father was certainly making sure of it.

In the 1950's, people were getting 'ideas' that his father did not agree with. For one, the male teenagers all seemed to be wearing leather jackets and slicked their hair back with grease. John, Logan's father, highly disagreed with slapping so much goo into someone's hair and thought of it as disgusting and childish. Female teenagers were becoming 'free', and this was something that his father disagreed with as well. His Father had no problem with young girls having fun and not being stuck in the house all the time. In fact, he was glad that was happening. What his father hated was the fact that so many teenage girls seemed to be having sex, getting pregnant, and even some didn't know who the father was. It seemed to Logan's Father that everything was going down hill, so he was going to make sure that his kids did not turn out that way.

Nancy, Logan's sister, was four years older than him. At the age of twelve, Logan was still being taught how to 'be a man'. He actually enjoyed his way of life, unlike so many other people. He liked helping his father with the car, taking care of the lawns, and being the 'handyman' of the house when his father was out. Nancy on the other hand, was becoming rebellious. She wanted to leave the house constantly to hang out with this boy named Danny. She always called him her boyfriend, but never brought him around the family, never introduced him, and was always missing curfew. One day, their father was sick of it and confronted both Danny and Nancy when they pulled up to the house from another one of their 'dates'. Nancy began screaming and yelling at their Father, which Logan disapproved of a lot. Danny got out of his car and went over to get in their father's face. The only thing John wanted was to meet this 'boyfriend' of Nancy's, but they overreacted to him.

Seeing that the yelling and screaming wasn't going to stop for a while, Logan, who was watching with his mother from the window, grabbed a small knife and put it in his pocket for just in case reasons. He walked out and told them all, including his father, to shut up. His words that night shocked them all... “Nancy, you're growing into a young woman and your family understands that you're wanting freedom as an adult, but the fact is... We haven't even met this Danny you constantly speak of. Until today, none of us even knew what he looked like. So, shut your rebellious mouth and take yourself into the house before I have to deal with it. Now Danny... I think that if you actually cared about my sister, you would have wanted to meet her family and become more a part of her life. The fact that you have neglected to do this shows me only one thing, you are a waste of her time. It has been three months since all of this started, and you refuse to speak to her father in a respectful tone? Get out, don't come back. If so, you will have to deal with me.” At this point in Logan's life, he had become quiet and always seemed to be serious. It was well known to the people around the neighborhood that he was a good kid, and that when he said he was going to do something, he meant it. Even Danny new and understood this. With how vague that 'threat' seemed to be, no one was sure of what Logan meant, but both John and Nancy could tell by the look in his eyes that he more than likely meant something violently.

That situation had been handled, and now it was a month later. Danny actually switched up and seemed to come around more to get to know the family. It turned out that he was a decent guy, or at least he seemed that way. Logan even began to trust him with his sister, and John trusted him enough as well to even invite him over for dinner a few times. Linda, Logan's mother, was just happy to see that her little girl had might have found someone to truly love her. One day at dinner, Nancy seemed very nervous, but no one understood why. After they were all done eating, she eased into the fact and told her family and Danny that she was pregnant. They were all shocked, but most of all Danny seemed extremely pissed off. He began yelling at her, but was stopped by their Father because he assumed that the baby was Danny's. At least until, “John, your daughter and I have never had sex.”

Nancy was apparently a closet whore. When asked who the Father was, she had no clue. She only kept shaking her head in shame. Logan had kept silent this entire time. Linda was crying in the kitchen, and both John and Danny were furious, not really giving her a chance to speak. Nancy soon ran to her room crying, but something about this seemed odd. Logan went to talk to his sister, and after about an hour she came out with the truth. She had been violated when walking home from school three weeks ago. She was so ashamed of it that she didn't know how to explain it to anyone or to ask for help. Logan was furious, but instead of lashing out he stayed by his sister side and waited for her to calm herself down. Nancy made him promise that he was not going to tell anyone, so he did. Nancy knew that it was the end of her and Danny's relationship and all trust their Father had in her, so why did she want to keep all of this a secret.

A week later, Logan was forced to watch his sister being shipped off to live with some rich relatives in Japan. Logan was furious at himself, his sister, and his parents. He didn't want to let this happen, but with his promise to his sister, he was unable to tell them the truth. He was furious at his parents for sending her away, but he still understood why. The family in Japan owned a major computer company and co-owned a car manufacturing company. So obviously they were well off and the were okay with bringing Nancy there to help raise the child.

After a while, Logan began feeling extremely lonely. His parents began fighting about every little thing, his sister was gone, Danny had disappeared by signing up for the military, and all of this left him alone. He didn't have any friends, and when he tried to make some, most people made fun of him because his sister was now known as the “whore” of Saint Louis. After a long few years of fighting, his parents got a divorce and his father left him with his mother. He loved his mother very much, but he did miss his father. He never saw him again after he left.

A few years later, at the age of eighteen after graduating high school the year before, Logan got into college. There he met an amazing woman named Kathrine. She was both beautiful, kind, and intelligent. Things he valued in a girl. After a few dates and getting to know one another, a year had gone by and he asked her to marry him. She said yes, and a few months after that they were married. At his wedding, his father showed up, congratulating him and telling him how proud he was. That moment meant more to hi than his father would understand. Soon the two of them graduated, both with Bachelor's Degree's and moved on to find jobs. Kathrine became a school teacher, and he was both a freelance writer and a computer software engineer.

At the age of 23, his wife 21, she became pregnant and nine months later had a beautiful baby girl. They named her Natalie. Unfortunately, Kathrine's body was too weak after the birth and she died an hour later. Logan was happy to say that he was able to say goodbye, but hated the fact that he had to. Natalie was his pride, his treasure, the most amazing thing in the world. That little girl had him wrapped around her finger. He spoiled her. He loved her more than anything. One day Natalie got sick. She was only two years old, and she came down with an illness that the doctors caught too later and she passed away in his arms.

After that, Logan stopped speaking as much as he used to. He never smiled. He no longer laughed, and soon wondered if he even had a sense of humor. Everything he held dear in the world was taken away from him prematurely. His sister was sent away and he never saw her again. His parents separated and left him a broken child. With everything he had already gone through, his wife died giving birth to their beautiful baby girl. Then this. Then the one thing he thought he could protect, love, raise, and keep safe... It was taken from him as well. Now, he was left alone in the world to wonder why all of this happened. He was a good man. He knew that. So why?

A few months passed and it was his 26th birthday. He just passed it up. People came to visit and he only sat down and listened to them. He didn't turn them away, especially when his parents were the ones to show up at his door. They had gotten back together, and were there to tell him what had been going on in their lives and see how he was. He still only spoke a few words. His face seemed to brighten up just a bit when they showed him a picture of his nephew. His sister's child. He had grown rather big, and his sister was as pretty as he remembered. They offered a plane ticket to him to go see her in February.

Finally feeling like something nice was happening in his life, he took the ticket and on February 9th he went to see his sister and nephew. He stayed for a good three months and had the time of his life. Finally he was smiling and laughing a bit, but still he was closed off and slightly detached. Any time he looked at his nephew, he felt like he saw his little girl standing happily next to him. Any time he looked at his sister, he saw his wife smiling with her. It was a wonderful, but horrible trip. As he was saying goodbye and preparing to take a plane back to the United States, he felt like something bad was going to happen. He didn't know what, but it was a strong feeling. He was nervous while sitting on the plane and as it took off, the feeling got worse. Suddenly the plane began acting strangely and the pilots dropped the breathing masks and told the passengers that they needed to land. Unfortunately that wasn't going to happen today, as fate once again pushed negatively against Logan and suddenly the engine cut out. Everyone screamed. Logan just sat there in his chair, quiet and waiting for impact. There was only a moment that he could tell the plane crashed and then he was standing on the outside of it, looking at the fire with a chain attached to his chest.

Logan just wandered around for a long time after that. Years went by as he watched his sister, nephew, and her new husband live their lives. No one could see him. That part was obvious. Once again he was alone. After a long while of loneliness, a man came to Logan's side. He did not speak. Logan did not even look to him. He only felt something press against his forehead while the man said he was sending him to the 'Soul Society', and soon he was in a completely different type of world. He wandered around here for a while as well, looking for something, and finding nothing. He didn't even know what he was looking around for. After wandering into the Rukongai, he learned a few new things about the man who had sent him here. Soul Reapers are what that man's kind are called. After some time, he realized he was able to make a ball of energy within the palms of his hand. He had watched some kids in an alley do it and wondered if he could himself. He did it right then and there, and it seemed easy to control.

To learn more about this 'power' and these things called 'Soul Reapers', Logan turned to Shino Academy where he was taught everything he needed to know. He learned and memorized the Kidō he was told about, practiced hand to hand combat, practiced the way of the sword, and soon was able to ask the name of his own Zanpakutō. From what the Teachers at Shino Academy said, he was probably the most advanced student they had since Shino Academy had started. It was shocking to see someone with such a natural ability as a Shinigami. Having gotten his Zanpakutō as early as he did was a shocker as well. Once he graduated, which was only after a single year of going to Shino Academy, Logan didn't immediately move into the Gotei 13. He knew what would happen once he did, and at this point in his life, he didn't want to jump right in to such a commitment.

Instead of joining, he began to wander aimlessly through the Rukongai. He fought off Hollows, bandits, madmen, and criminals all alike. He protected those within the Rukongai as much as he possibly could and seemed to easily lay his life down on the line for them. He has been doing this for the last four hundred years and wasn't really caring whether his routine was going to change or not, but something about him definitely did change.

One day, while coming across a village that had been partially destroyed. He walked up to a body that was laying on the ground, yet still moving. It was a young woman. Although she was rather beautiful, Logan wasn't one to care about the appearance of a woman anymore. His heart was still warm and he was still kind, but no one had come along to fill the void within his heart that only two other girls in his life previously could fill. He stared down at her and she looked up to him, asking for his help. Of course he was willing to help her. He wasn't going to just leave her there to suffer or fall to her injuries. He reached out, offering his hand. Once she took it, her grip tightened more than he had expected. The next thing he knew, a bright light shined from both of their hands and the woman disappeared. He could hear her voice inside of his head.

“I shall use your body as my own!” the woman told him. Logan wasn't sure exactly how to react to this, but for a brief moment, he felt his own conscious slipping away. He fought it. His right arm suddenly bolted out to the side. He fought that as well. He was successful in holding back what ever it was this woman was trying to do to him. Once again, he felt her attempting to take control, but he wasn't one to allow this. He simply suppressed her, using his own power to hold her back. She was easily overcome by him. “How can this be?! No one has ever been able to resist!” he heard her yell once more, but he ignored her. The woman soon learned that he wasn't one to reply. He would listen to her and would answer back maybe every ten stories or rants she went on, but most of the time he only listened to her. The woman was impressed by his strength to hold her back. She admitted defeat after five years of attempting to push her way into his power and subconscious. Each time she tried, she failed. She was impressed by his abilities and soon, while he was in a battle with a strong opponent, she allowed him to take some of her own abilities, knowing that she too would die if he did. Her only way to live was now to make sure that he lived as well.

After a few more years of wandering, Logan returned to the Soul Society. He didn't know how people would react to it, so he kept the fact that he had another spirit inside of him completely secret. Having been alone for as long as he was, he is currently hoping to join Gotei 13, and wants to try to continue where he left off...

Ziamichi Spirit Name: Akira Okiel

Ziamichi Spirit Appearance:

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] 333

Ziamichi Personality: Akira's personality changes depending on what's happening. If it's just a normal calm day, she will be normal and calm. If it is raining, she is depressed and distant, usually refusing to speak. If it's sunny, she'll be rather talkative, but gives up after a while because she knows that Logan is not going to reply. If he does reply, she gets excited and doesn't every shut up. Now... If they are in battle, she loves the sight of blood, so she will get really excited and begin laughing hysterically every time someone gets hurt. The more blood she sees, whether it's on Logan or the opponent, the more of her power she will give him. If the opponent is showing a lot of blood, she gives more power because she wants to cause more harm, but in the other situation... If Logan is hurt, she gives more power to keep them both alive.

Ziamichi History: In life, Akira was a human with a love for the sight of blood. She had been obsessed with the idea of vampires, so when she learned to manipulate chi, the way she used it was to lengthen certain parts of her body; teeth and nails. With fangs similar to that of a vampire and sharp pointed nails, she used chi to give her extreme strength and speed to annihilate anyone in her way. When she was young, around ten years old, she watched her family get brutally murdered in front of her own eyes. She was too young and inexperienced to do anything about it, but ever since that moment, this obsession with blood began. Most people would fear it or want to avoid being around it, but she was different. She enjoyed the sight, smell, feel, and even the taste of it. In the end, her obsession with blood was what killed her and sent her to the soul society.

The day she attempted to take over Logan's body, she had been attacked by a hundred people in the village she was staying at. She had been taken completely by surprise and the only wound she received in that entire battle was the one they surprised her with. She took a spear through the back and all the way through her chest. She fought them off, killed them all, and before she got a chance to run, she collapsed due to her own loss of blood. About that time, Logan came by assuming she was an innocent. She reached out to him, asking for help and was glad to see he had taken it. A very powerful ability she had learned, was to pass her soul through the body of men and women. She was usually able to easily take over their bodies, but this time was completely different. Logan fought her and succeeded, now having her trapped within his body.

Ziamichi Powers:

Enhanced Speed: Akira used Chi to enhance her body. Her obsession with vampires and things of such nature made her do everything in such a manner. One thing about vampires that everyone knew, they were fast. She used Chi to enhance her ability to move at much faster speeds than any other person. It brings her normal level of speed up a single level. (Example: If her speed was adept, it would bring it up to advanced.)

Enhanced Strength: Another thing well known about vampires, they are very strong. Some of them being able to withstand harsh explosions, pick up and toss trucks with a single hand, and jump over one hundred feet in the air. She used chi to add to this as well, making her body like a tank, if not stronger than it. (Example: If her normal strength is adept, it would bring it up to advanced.)

Enhanced Durability: Obviously vampires aren't the easiest thing to cut or injure, so to make her more like them, she uses her Chi to harden her skin. This does not make it harder for her to move, it only makes it harder for other people to cut her skin or damage her body. (Same as other two abilities: If her durability is adept, this brings it up to advanced.)

Body Transfer: Akira has the ability to transfer her soul into another persons body. By making physical contact with someone (her hand touches theirs), her soul is transferred into the person. After a few moments, the person soul is USUALLY overwhelmed and soon dies off. Her own form will overtake the other persons form within a week and she will once again look like herself, otherwise she will take on their form for a while. She usually only did this if she was severely injured.

BENEFITS || OF HOST
____________________________

Unique Traits: The only unique traits that he gets from his Ziamichi Spirit, Akira, is her long nails and vampire-like teeth. She 'grants' him all the other powers he gets when she wants to. He isn't one to try and force it out of her. The only thing he forces is the constant giving of sharper nails and teeth. The only reason he does this, is because it keeps him using some of her energy. There are still times that Akira tries to escape him. When and if he makes physical contact with someone, she attempts to use the ability she had before, and transfer her soul from him into who ever he makes contact with. By Logan constantly using her energy to keep his nails and teeth long, her energy is never complete and it gives him just enough time to prevent her from switching from his body to another. He does this because if she successfully leaves him and into a weaker person, the person would be taken over and would die off, allowing her to live.

When GRANTED/GIVEN her power, all of her abilities, except for transferring bodies, is given to him. Her enhanced strength, enhanced speed, and enhanced durability are all given to him at once. This lasts for three rounds of posts and then she has to stop letting him use her power. If she doesn't stop letting him, it will last a single more round of posts, and then she will be unable to let him use her power for a long time. ( 1 week real time ) During this time, she can't speak. She stays quiet and sleeps until she had gained enough power to act normal again.

Forms: He doesn't really have any 'forms'. Nothing about him changes when she allows him to use her power. She just grants him more when he is on the edge of being defeated, or when she is yearning for the sight of more blood.

Drawbacks: If Logan uses too much of her power, it is technically her own fault. Since he does not ever ask her for it, she gives it to him, than she is weakened for a great amount of time. She will not be able to grant him power for fights within the previously stated amount of time. ( 1 week real time ) During this time, his 'fangs' and long nails will subside until she has enough power for him to work with as well.

Control: 9 The only time he can't control her is when he himself has been weakened. During this time, he must be very careful on the amount of physical contact he makes with others. If his hand touches anyone else's, and she is awake, she can use this to transfer herself into that persons body, which is something that he obviously does not want.

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] Image4031-1

• Reiatsu Color: Purple

• Zanpakutô Spirit Name: Endellion

• Zanpakutô Spirit Appearance:

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] 220

• Inner World: Endellion's inner world is an arena. The ground is made up of nothing but dirt and there are stone bleachers around the entire thing. The area in which you fight is a little larger than a football field. There is no roof, but the sky is tinted with orange since it seems the sun is stuck in the 'setting' position. On the outside of this arena is absolutely nothing. If you are knocked out, you fall and fall and fall. After a few minutes of falling, suddenly it's like you're falling from the sky again and you can see the arena once again. This gives you a brief moment to catch your ground and get back into the game. If not, then you continue falling. Once this chance has passed by three times, the entire world begins to collapse. If the world collapses, Logan will lose his spiritual powers completely.

• Sealed Zanpakutô Apperance :

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] Endellion1

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] Endellion1

• Release: Scorch Their Flesh, Endellion.

• Shikai Description: When shikai is activated, the only thing that changes is the look of his Zanpakutō, which you can see in the picture below:

Logan Drakeford [Approved, 1-3] 80-2

His sword, minus the hilt, is 5 feet in length.

• Shikai Abilities:

Logan's Zanpakutō concentrates on a force push and heat. Force push, in this case, is when energy is condensed down into and intense pressure. Once directed towards something, it has the ability to push them, knock them off their feet, destroy an object, and in some cased keep and enemy in place. Adding extreme heat into this, the pressure that is created by Logan's shikai is intensified by heating it up to unimaginable temperatures. In his shikai, the hottest it can become is 500 degrees, but this heat drains his spiritual pressure immensely. Each technique can be used without adding heat to it, which will add three more uses onto both Hot Shot and Hot Streak. Heat Wave ALWAYS uses heat and that can't be changed. LOGAN IS NOT AFFECTED BY ANY HEAT THAT HIS OWN SPIRITUAL PRESSURE AND Zanpakutō CREATE!

Note: All Max Speeds In Every Move In His Shikai Can Be Doubled If He Uses Both Arms To Swing His Sword. If he does use both arms, strength to stop an attack must be 1 level higher than stated below. If he uses both arms, speed to dodge an attack must be 1 level higher than stated below OR distance must be doubled.

Hot Shot: This technique can be used an unlimited amount of times since it uses the least amount of spiritual pressure to cast. This move is used when Logan points the tip of his blade towards an opponent or object. He doesn't need to call out the name. The names are just what he has named them through time and practice. He forms a ball at the tip of his blade and shoots it out towards the person at certain speeds, some being alarmingly fast and others being slow. All details explained below:

It can range from 10 degrees to 350 degrees. It's speed ranges from 50 miles per hour to 750 miles per hour. It's like it sounds; A Hot Shot. It's like a bullet being shot towards a being. At other times it can be like a rocket. The larger it is, the slower it goes. So, if it's the size of a 9mm bullet, then it will be going at max speed. If it's the size of a basket ball, it will be going from 200 to 400 miles per hour. If it was the size of a beach ball or larger, it will be going from 50 miles per hour to 150 miles per hour. Once this has hit and object AND been forced to stop moving, it will disperse. It does not keep itself active.

With hot shot, the impact the person might feel will obviously depend on the size. A large the size, it will probably feel more like a push to their body. A medium size will likely feel as if they are getting punched, and a small shot will likely feel as if they are getting shot. If the small one hits, it will probably be able to pierce their skin and move through their body. A person with advanced durability will likely not have the shot push all the way through them, but instead it might feel like they have been stabbed by a short blade. A person with master durability might only feel like he has gotten hit, and a person with grand master durability will probably be able to brush it off like nothing. At it's highest speed, this move can be dodged be someone with an advanced in speed IF the distance between them allows it. Those with adept or lower would have to be at least fifty feet away to dodge this at maximum speed.

Hot Streak: This move can be used from 10 to 15 times in a single match; from full power until he is too tired to use it anymore. This technique is a simple swing of his blade. When he swings his Zanpakutō, a thin streak of condensed spiritual pressure is shot out from his blade in the shape of a crescent moon. The crescent moon follows the swing of his blade. If he swings it vertically, then the streak will come out vertically and same goes for horizontally or diagonally.

This can range from 100 degrees to 400 degrees. It's speed ranges from 100 miles per hour to 500 miles per hour. It can be shot off in different sizes. A large size would be 2 feet tall and 15 feet long. A medium size would be 1 foot tall and 8 foot long. A small size would be less than 1 inch tall and 3 foot long. ( Sizes/Speeds can differ depending on what Logan wishes them to do. These are just defaults to help those reading understand exactly what they can do. Max IS what is describes as a 'large' Hot Streak within paragraph. ) Hot Streaks Effects on a persons body can vary from the victim feeling like they were hit by a car, or even actually having a limb cut from their body. If used at max speed, and altered to where it's thin/sharp enough, the streak does have the ability to cut a persons limb off.

At max speed, a person of advanced strength can hold this attack off for a short time. A person with master or grandmaster strength can hold it off or deflect it easily, but to hold it off or deflect, the longer they touch it, the more damage it can do. A person of advanced durability can receive harsh gashes and cuts from a thin streak, while anyone lower will more than likely have their limbs cut from their body if they are hit by this. A person of master or grandmaster durability can get minor cuts or just small scrapes/burns, although grandmaster will probably just feel as if his body was touched by something hot. A person of advanced speed can dodge this attack from 15 feet and farther. A person of adept speed will have to be at least 50 feet away from him to dodge, and that is doubled for those who are beginner in speed. Master and Grandmaster will only not be able to dodge this if they are within 5 feet of him.

Heat Wave: This technique can only be used up to three times within a single fight and takes an entire post to charge. It takes up a large amount of his spiritual pressure, so if he uses it more than three times, he would have spent more than half and it would leave him tired and make it hard for him to continue being able to use the other two techniques stated. Once this move has been started, it is not something he can just stop. The energy he brings up is very powerful and needs to be directed somewhere, so he must be careful when he chooses to use it.

Once this move is activated, a burst of his spiritual pressure shoots out from his body, causing anything he is standing on to break down and make it hard for anyone to get near him without being burnt to a crisp. The force that his spiritual pressure creates allows him to float within the air, creating an automatic and temporary footing for him. He then swings his sword with as much strength as he needs to use to get off the attack. Once the sword is swung, a large wave of condensed energy shoots forward at high speeds and 500 degrees in temperature.

This move has two sizes. One is what Logan would usually use, but he still calls medium. It is a wave that it 20 feet high and 30 feet wide. It's speed ranges from 200 miles per hour to 500 miles per hour. The second size is 40 feet high and 60 feet wide and it's speed ranges from 300 miles per hour to 600 miles per hour. If the second size is used, he can only use this technique once, which is why he chooses to use the first size, along with the damage it can cause.

A person would have to have a Master in durability to not be horribly injured by this, but a master would probably still be slightly burnt. A Grand Master might feel his flesh heat up, but no really bad damage will be done. A person of advanced durability does not want to be hit by this. It will likely scorch the flesh to third degree burns. An adept or beginner in durability will more than likely be injured severely, to the point where they will need days, if not weeks of bed rest and medical treatment. A person of master and grandmaster strength can hold it off with their hands, but the heat caused by this will only build up and will still cause damage to their bodies. Anything lower will be severely hurt or killed. A person with Master and Grandmaster speed can of course dodge this if the distance between Logan and them will allow it. A person with advanced speed will have to be at least 100 feet away to dodge this attack. A person with adept or beginner speed will have to be at least 150 to 200 feet away to get out of the way of this attack.

As stated before, if Logan uses both arms to swing his sword during any of his shikai attacks, the speeds are doubled. If this happens, each level stated above would be raised for the ability to dodge, hold off, or change the damage that it does. For instance: It takes a person of Advanced speed to be at at least 100 feet away to get completely out of the way of this attack. So, if he used both arms, the person would now have to be a Master in speed, OR 200 feet away to completely dodge this attack. That goes for the rest that was stated above. You either double the distance away the person would have to be, or the persons skill level has to come up by 1.

• Bankai Description: Logan's bankai is just a larger and more powerful version of his shikai, taking away the sword. Once bankai is activated, the sword vanishes and turns into a large red dragon, made up of spiritual pressure, behind him. The energy the dragon is made up of is 'absorbed' into his body. With bankai activated, he no longer has to use his sword to wield or control his power. He can now just use mental commands, his arms, and his hands.

• Bankai Abilities:

Note: All Shikai abilities are passed over into bankai, but speeds, strengths powers have all changed and become much more powerful than when Logan is using Shikai.

Logan's Zanpakutō, when in bankai, has the same base as his shikai; Froce Push combined with Extreme Heat. His spiritual pressure is still condensed down into a strong pressure that once directed at something can do a large amount of damage. In bankai, these effects are just much stronger than stated in Shikai, so they will obviously do a greater amount of damage. In his bankai, the hottest his attacks can become is 2000 degrees. Once again: Logan is not affected by any heat that his own spiritual pressure and Zanpakutō create. He has a natural immunity to this and his body was pretty much created to be able to stand his own power.

Note: All Max Speeds In Every Move In His bankai Can Be Doubled If He Uses Both Arms To Swing His Sword, Just Like In His Shikai. If he does use both arms, strength to stop an attack must be 1 level higher than stated below. If he uses both arms, speed to dodge an attack must be 1 level higher than stated below or distance must be doubled.

Hot Shot: This technique can be used an unlimited amount of times since it uses the least amount of spiritual pressure to cast. This move is used when Logan points the tip of his finger towards an opponent or object. He doesn't need to call out the name. The names are just what he has named them through time and practice. He forms a ball at the tip of his finger and shoots it out towards the person at high speeds. In bankai, he is able to shoot up to ten of these at once. All details explained below:

A single shot can range from 50 degrees to 450 degrees. It's speed ranges from 200 miles per hour to 800 miles per hour. It's like it sounds; A Hot Shot. It's like a bullet being shot towards an object. At other times it can be like a rocket. The larger it is, the slower it goes. So, if it's the size of a 9mm bullet, then it will be going at max speed. If it's the size of a basket ball, it will be going from 500 to 700 miles per hour. If it was the size of a beach ball or larger, it will be going from 200 miles per hour to 350 miles per hour. Once this has hit and object AND been forced to stop moving, it will disperse. It does not keep itself active.

With hot shot, the impact the person feels will obviously depend on the size. A large the size, it will feel more like a very rough push to their body, causing them to stumble. A medium size will feel like they are getting hit with a metal bat, and a small shot will feel like they are getting shot. If the small one hits, it will pierce their skin and move through their body. A person with advanced durability will feel the full effects. A person with master durability will feel as if they have been shot, but the bullet did not go all the way through. A person with a Grandmaster durability will feel like he has gotten hit rather hard, and would probably see a bruise show up. At it's highest speed in bankai, this move can still be dodged by someone with advanced speed, but only if they are at LEAST 50 feet away from him. Those at adept or lower need to be at least 100 feet away, otherwise it's practically impossible for them to dodge. Master and Grandmaster can dodge this from 15 feet and beyond.

Hot Streak: This move can be used from 20 to 30 times in a single match; from full power until he is too tired to use it anymore. This technique is a simple swing of his arm/hand. When he swings his arm/hand, a thin streak of condensed spiritual pressure is shot out from his arm/hand in the shape of a crescent moon. The crescent moon follows the swing of his arm/hand. If he swings it vertically, then the streak will come out vertically and same goes for horizontally or diagonally.

This can range from 300 degrees to 600 degrees. It's speed ranges from 300 miles per hour to 700 miles per hour. It can be shot off in different sizes. A large size would be 4 feet tall and 30 feet long. A medium size would be 2 foot tall and 16 foot long. A small size would be less than 1 inch tall and 8 foot long. ( Sizes/Speeds can differ depending on what Logan wishes them to do. These are just defaults to help those reading understand exactly what they can do. Max IS what is describes as a 'large' Hot Streak within paragraph. )

At max speed/power, a person of master strength can hold this attack off for a short time. A person with grandmaster strength can hold it off or deflect it, but might have a slightly hard time doing so. A person of master durability can receive harsh gashes and cuts from a thin streak, while anyone lower will more than likely have their limbs cut from their body if they are hit by this. A person of grandmaster durability can get cuts or scrapes/burns. To dodge this completely when the attack is at full speed, a person would have to have a master or grandmaster in speed. Any lower will more than likely be hit. A person of advanced speed will have to be at least 75 feet away from him to completely get out of the way, and that distance is doubled for adept(150 ft.) and longer for beginner(200ft.)

Heat Wave: This technique can be used up to 5 times within a single fight and takes an entire post to charge. It takes up a large amount of his spiritual pressure, so if he uses it more than 5 times, he would have spent a little less than half of his spiritual pressure. Once this move has been started, it is not something he can just stop. The energy he brings up is very powerful and needs to be directed somewhere, so he must be careful when he chooses to use it.

Once this move is activated, a burst of his spiritual pressure shoots out from his body, causing anything he is standing on to break down and make it hard for anyone to get within 15 feet of him without being burnt to a crisp. The force that his spiritual pressure creates allows him to float within the air, creating an automatic and temporary footing for him. He then hold out his hand and releases a large wave of energy for the attack. Once the energy is released, a large wave of shoots forward at high speeds and 2000 degrees in temperature.

In bankai, this move has three set sizes. Logan only likes using the first. The first size is no different than in his shikai. It is 20 feet high and 30 feet wide. It's set speed is 400 miles per hour. The second size is also no different than in his shikai, except for speed. It is 40 feet high and 60 feet wide and it's set speed is 600 miles per hour. The third and largest size can only be used twice and then this move is done. It is 100 foot high and 150 foot wide and it's set speed is 1000 miles per hour.

The first size can be dodged by a master and grandmaster in speed, but an advanced will more than likely be caught in the blast IF he is NOT within 100 feet of Logan. The second size can be dodged by a Master and Grandmaster as well, but... A Master must be at least 75 feet away from Logan to do it. An Advanced would have to be at least 175 feet away. The third size can only be completely dodged by a Grandmaster as long as this grandmaster is at least 75 feet away from Logan when the attack is cast. If someone is actually hit by this attack, they would need a master durability to not die and a Grandmaster durability to not be severely wounded. Only a grandmaster in strength would have the ability to hold off this attack, but being that close to the heat can still cause a large amount of damage to his body. A Master would probably wish to dodge it in some way because they would receive 2nd to 3rd degree burns if they did not. Just assume that anything below Master, if they got hit by this attack, they would die.

As stated before, if Logan uses both arms to swing his sword during any of his bankai attacks, the speeds are doubled. If this happens, each level stated above would be raised for the ability to dodge, hold off, or change the damage that it does. For instance: If it takes a person of Advanced speed to be at at least 100 feet away to get completely out of the way of an attack.... then if he used both arms, the person would now have to be a Master in speed, OR 200 feet away to completely dodge this attack. That goes for the rest that was stated above. You either double the distance away the person would have to be, or the persons skill level has to come up by 1.

None of the bankai or shikai abilities are 100 percent set in stone. Different situations tend to bring different results. Everything stated above are technical defaults that are likely to happen if the situation is similar.

R E V I S E

I'm just slightly irked about how you've defined his abilities. I'll take [Heat Wave] as an example.

A person would have to have a Master in durability to not be horribly injured by this, but a master would still be slightly burnt. A Grand Master would feel his flesh heat up, but no really bad damage will be done. A person of advanced durability does not want to be hit by this. It will scorch the flesh to third degree burns. An adept or beginner in durability will be injured severely, to the point where they will need days, if not weeks of bed rest and medical treatment.

This shouldn't be set in stone. I'd rather it wasn't, in fact. First, it's rare for characters to have high durability; second, it's not the best idea to say that "if you have this level x, then this WILL happen to you." Other than that, it seems good as an app.
