Ability Info
Fighting Style: Shinji's fighting style changes depending on what weapon he is using. If he is using his unreleased zanpakutou, he uses a two-sword style of fighting, using the sheath of his wakizashi as a weapon. Because of this, the sheath is reinforced with steel. His two-swords style is similar to how he uses his zanpakutou in shikai. He uses the sword for offense, while he uses the sheath to block. If he is overpowered, he will switch to using full defense and full offense with the two weapons. He relies on his senses to fight, rather than simply focusing on speed or strength while fighting. He typically doesn't move unless his target tries to escape.
While using Shikai, he typically focuses on trapping his opponent into a corner, and then letting out his kido full force on them while they are pinned down. He also relies on his zanpakutou's defensive abilities to weaken his target and by time for the perfect opportunity. He nearly throws away his offensive tactics for defensive ones until he gets his target where he wants them.
While using Bankai, he will disregard any notion of defense, going all out. He only usually releases this state when he has figured out an enemies weaknesses. With this, he can quickly dispatch the target, without reaching his Bankai's limit. If he is facing a strong opponent, he will start by using techniques to either bind them, or hinder them in some other way, before letting loose all of his abilities one-by-one. Under extremelly dire circumstances, he will unleash his "Ultimate Technique".
Strengths: Very skilled at Kido and Zanjutsu. Is fairly skilled with the use of Hoho.
Flaws: Not very skilled with Hakuda.
Zanpakuto Name: Kitsujokou (Fox Queen)
Zanpakuto Appearance: The zanpakutou itself takes the form of a tanto. The guard of the zanpakutou is the same shape as the marking on Kitsujokou's human form's forehead.
Spirit Animal Form:
Spirit Human Form:
Kido:
Bakudo #63: Sajo Sabaku
Bakudo #75: Gochutekkan
Hado #91: Senju Koten Taiho
Shikai
Shikai Release Phrase: "Gayoku wo Kai, Kitsujokou!" (Destroy your selfishness, Fox Queen!)
Shikai Appearance: When released, Kitsujokou turns into a pair of fans, about 2 and a half feet in length each. The fan held in Shinji's right hand has a golden colored paper, while the one in his left hand is silver. Both fans have a thin blade along the wooden portion, starting about seven inches from the bottom of the fan.
Shikai Abilities: In Shikai, Kitsujokou has no offensive abilities, though the blades on the fan are very sharp. The blades are not capable ot cutting through the body, only ablt to make cuts about an inch or so deep into the body. Despite the lack of offensive abilities, Kitsujokou has the ability of enhancing and defending it's user.
The golden fan can channel kido and other energy-related abilities through it, effectively doubling the strength of the kido used through it. It is also capable of absorbing hado and similar powers by channeling them through the fan. It can completely absorb any hado up to number 50, and absorb half the power of any hado between numbers 51 and 80. Higher leveled hado are still absorbed, but only slightly.
The silver fan is able to break through bakudo in the same way the golden fan can absob hado. The silver fan is also able to 'seal' up to half a person's spiritual energy inside it. It seals a portion of spiritual energy every time it cuts through it's opponent.
Boosts: Enhanced Kido: Kido below 80 can be recited without the incantation and still be used at full force.
Bankai
Bankai Release Phrase: "Satori wo Hiraku, Nijirei Kitsujokou!" (Attain Enlightenment, Rainbow Soul Fox Queen!)
Bankai Appearance: In Bankai, Nijirei Kitsujokou takes the form of a katana bathed in a rainbow light. Whenever it reflects light, the light that is reflected takes on a rainbow color. Shinji also slightly changes appearance, gaining a tan-like vest with fox fur around the collar and sleeves. He also gains 'fur' on his wrists, and a belt in the shape of a fox tail. He also gains a pair of earrings in the form of bells. Around his back are eight colored orbs, parallel to his body. The orbs are constantly spinning at a medium pace. (The orbs are the same one found in Kitsujokou's animal form image.)
Bankai Abilities: While in Bankai, Kitsujokou changes from a defensive type to an offensive type zanpakutou. Each orb gives Shinjirou a different ability corrosponding to the element the orb represents. After each orb's ability is used a set amount of times, the orb cracks. When all the orbs are gone, Shinji is reverted to his normal state, and severely weakened.
- White Orb: The white orb represents light and allows Shinji to use an ability he calls "Shining Soul". Shinji's sword turns into a bright white color. This abilities is a supportive skil. Shinjirou stabs or cuts himself or an ally with his sword, which causes them to slowly regenerate their wounds. (The slash doesn't cut through the body. This ability can be used twice.)
- Black Orb: The black orb represents darkness and allows Shinji to use "Night's Embrace". Before the ability is used, Shinji's katana turns a pitch black. Shinji then thrusts the sword into the ground of his opponent. Is he thrusts it into the ground, it causes the surroundings to become entirely black for a short amount of time. If he hits his opponent, they become blind for a short amount of time. (The deeper the sword is thrust into the opponent, the longer the blindness lasts. It lasts about 30-45 seconds at the least and up to five minutes at the most. Can be used once.)
- Red Orb: The red orb represents fire and allows Shinji to use his "Inferno Twister" ability. When activated, Shinji's sword turns a scarlet red. After the sword changes colors, he points the tip at his target, and sends a fiery twister at his opponent, with his sword being the 'eye of the storm'. Shinji is able to control the path of the twister, but it dissipates after moving about 100 feet. He can also control the width of the twister. (Can be used twice.)
- Purple Orb: The purple orb represents lightning and allows Shinji to use his "Lightning Canon" ability. When activated, Shinji's sword turns a bright purple. Similar to the inferno twister, Shinji points the tip of his sword at the target. Afterward, a small ball of electricity forms. The ball can reach up to 10 feet in diameter before being shot in the form of a large beam canon. The size of the blast increases up to twice it's original size after about 20 feet of moving, and slowly starts to shrink after about 80 feet, finally dissipating at 100 feet. (Can be used up to 4 times, depending on the size. A small [up to 4 feet] beam is equal to one use, while a medium [5-8 feet] is equal to two, and a large beam [9-10 feet] is equal to four uses.)
- Orange Orb: The orange orb represents earth and allows Shinji to use his "Terra Crush" ability. When activated, Shinji's sword turns a dark orange. Shinji then thrusts his sword into the ground, causing a small earthquake. Afterwards, the ground near the opponent shifts, causing two to four peices of earth to 'stand' from the ground and crush the opponent. This cannot be dodge by running away, only by jumping. (Can be used twice.)
- Green Orb: The green orb represents wind and allows Shinji to use his "Slicing Gale" ability. When activated, Shinji's sword turns a light green. Afterward, every time Shinji slashes with his sword, it sends out a fast and strong wind, capable of slicing even hard rock. (This ability can be used an infinite amount of times, but can only be activated once. After Shinji changes orbs, the green orb will break.)
- Dark Blue Orb: The dark blue orb represents water and allows Shinji to use his "Polluted Rain" ability. When activated, Shinji's sword turns a navy blue. Shinji calls forth a storm by pointing his blade to the sky, causing the skies to darken and rain to fall. The rain is harmless unless the target has an open wound, or it gets inside their body some other way. The water in the rain contains a toxin that causes blurred vision and saps spiritual energy. (Can be used once, but the rain lasts about ten minutes. Can be used in combination with other orbs, while still raining.)
- Light Blue Orb: The light blue orb represents ice and allows Shinji to use his "Glacier Storm" ability. When activated, Shinji's sword turns a transparent blue. Before attacking, Shinji's sword becomes enveloped in ice. When he slashes with it, he sends thousands of small icicles at the opponent. (Like the green orb, can be used an infinite number of times, but can only be activated once.)
- Ultima: This technique is activated by breaking all orbs, causing them to reform into a rainbow-colored orb that fuses with Shinjirou's stomach. When this technique activates, his zanpakutou shatters, leaving only the hilt, which becomes absorbed into the orb. Afterward, Shinji regains the use of his kido, but the power, speed, and durability of the kido are increased 100-fold. The use of this technique renders Shinji's legs immobile, and if active for longer than 2 minutes will cause Shinjirou to become permanently blind, mute, or deaf. If used longer than 5 minutes, it will cause Shinji to die. (Also, if it is used just to defeat someone for a selfish reason, he will permanently lose his zanpakutou. He was notified of this by Kitsujokou herself, when he first discovered the technique. The technique must be used to protect others.)
Boosts: Immunity to the dark blue orb. Enhanced vision and hearing while using the black orb. Resistant to the orb's specific element, while it is in use. Disallows the use of kido.
Hollow
Mask Appearance: Shinji's mask is unique, in that it changes appearances during his bankai.
Normal:
Bankai Released:
Mask Control: Shinji can usually hold his mask for up to five or six minutes. While using the mask in Bankai, this duration decreases to about one or two minutes.
Hollow Powers:
Cero: Shinji's Cero is formed at his hands or the tip of his sword. It's color shifts, giving it a rainbow-like appearance.
- V-Cero: A wide, thin cero that is supposedly unique to Shinji. The cero is formed along the blade of his sword of fans. When he slashes with the sword, the cero shoots out into a widening 'V' shaped beam.
- X-Cero: A cero Shinji can only use in his shikai. In essence, it is two V-Cero put together by slashing both fans at the sime time, in the shape of an 'X'.
Mask Protection: Enhances defenses and causes damage to be felt at a minimum while the mask is on.
Telekinesis: Shinji can call his zanpakutou to him if it is within ten feet of him. (While completely hollowfied, this range increases indefinitely.)
Hollowfication:
Name: Roujinshi (˜TnŽ‡: Purple Wolf Blade)
Inner Hollow:
Personality:
Roujinshi has a dark and sadistic personality. He often urges Shinji to fight whenever the opportunity arises. He likes to fight, and, if given control, will often immediately release shikai or bankai along with the hollow mask, regardless of his opponent's strength. He shows no mercy, regardless of who he would be fighting. He often taunts Shinji by calling him names, or some other elementary-level tactic. He is very aggressive when not in check, and even though Shinji is a high-leveled vizard, this aggressiveness makes it very hard to control Roujin at times; often to the point where he has to use all of his willpower to suppress the being.
Hollowfied:
(Exepct the skin is pale and the fur is white.)
Boosts: Extremelly enhanced speed, and enhanced strength. While hollowfied, he gains a hierro equal to that of a low-level Espada. The strength of his cero and other abilities also increase significantly.
Bio
Background: During his human life, Shinjirou was a member of a great samurai family in fuedal japan's Edo, now present day Tokyo. The area where his family was located was where Karakura Town would later be established.
The Katagami family was a group of humans with strong spiritual energy, and as such, were able to see hollows and other spiritual beings. Because of this, Shinji's family had taken to slaying hollows and protecting their town, without the full knowledge of what it was they were destroying. During that time, they were called demon slayers, and often traveled the world looking for 'demons' to slay.
Shinjirou himself was taught how to use a sword at a very young age, like the rest of his family, and had mastered the use of the katana when he turned 17. Also, as the heir to the Katagami family, he was taught the basics of the family bussiness, and a few months after he turned 17, he slayed his first hollow. At the age of 18, he had went on a mission to destroy a hollow that was ravaging the current shogun's, Tokugawa Ieyasu's, castle.
He had minor difficulty slaying the hollow, receiving a small wound across his chest from the fight. Little did he know, that the hollow had severely poisoned him with it's claws. About a month later, he became severely ill, and was forced to rest at his home until his death. He died just after he turned 19, the poison having stopped the functioin of most of his organs by then, causing him to die slowly and rather painfully.
He awoke about a week later, with a chain attatched to his stomach. He wondered what had happened, until he saw a grave, with his own name on it. It didn't take long for him to meet his first Shinigami, who told him about the Soul Society, and quickly sent him there. When he reached the Soul Society, he was sent to the first district in West Rukongai.
For about fifty years, he lived in peace, although he was extremelly bored due to the lack of action. During this time, he had heard of the Shinigami Academy, and decided to try it out, if it meant he would live a more exciting life. His first time taking the entrance exam, he failed it. He didn't give up, but instead, tried to learn as much as he could, before taking it again the next year, and making it into the first class.
He graduated the academy after the typical six years, barely making it as one of the top ten students that graduated that year. He later obtained his zanpakutou, Kitsujokou, during the next few weeks of his life. He had yet to learn his zanpakutou's name, until about a year later. During this time, he had no intention of joining the Gotei 13, because he had not learned the name of his zanpakutou.
After he had aquired Shikai, he took the entrance exam for the Gotei 13, passing it and entering into the tenth division, as an 8th seat officer. After about thirty years of working under the tenth division, he was promoted to a 4th seat officer. He quickly raised in ranks under the tenth division, until he became a lieutenant about forty years later. He remained a lieutenant in division ten for about 50 years, during which he began to train to obtain his Bankai. He quickly learned how to use Bankai, but it was a very unstable transformation. He continued to train and learn to control his bankai for the last 25 years as the tenth division's lieutenant.
During the last year of his 50 years as the tenth division's lietenant, he encountered a hollow almost identical to the one that killed him. Upon questioning the hollow, he learned that the two were related. To avenge his own death, he decided to attempt to kill the hollow, but it was far stronger than the one that killed him. During the battle, the captain of the tenth division helped him and died in the fight; but this gave Shinjirou the chance to kill the hollow. Despite suffering a near fatal injury, he succeeded in killing the hollow.
A few weeks after the battle, Shinjirou was promoted to his division's captain level. It was also during this time, that he felt a strange presence within himself. About thirty years after those events, during a mission in the human world, Shinjirou's inner hollow took over his body, causing the death of many of his division members. He was quickly apprehended by the captain-commander, and sentenced to death by the spirit-sealing pit. Before his punishment could be fulfilled, though, he unconsciously donned his mask and escaped the soul society for the human world.
He spent the next one hundred years learning how to control his inner hollow and the use of his mask. During this time, he had created a place to hide from the soul society, as well as a way to make his body into a physical form. During the next one hundred years of his life, he entered into a school within Karakura town, and continued to slay hollows. Also, with the huge boom in technology during that time, he became what is known as an otaku. While at his 'base', he would constantly play videogames or read manga.

Role Playing Sample:
It was a bright, sunny day, almost the perfect weather for summer. The voices of people and cars passing by could be heard from outside, and seen from the windows. Shinjirou, unlike most of the other residents of Karakura town, was inside on this beautiful day. He sat at a desk, a laptop in front of him. He was playing a popular online RPG; typing away at the keyboard and clicking the mouse. "That rare drop is mine." he said to himself, as his character walked through a dungeon. "Only once every twelve hours you come along... so where are you!?" he said, looking at the screen. It was a typical day of online gaming for him, to talk to a program that wouldn't respond back.
"You should've already popped here... I've been up since three o'clock this morning to look for you!" he said, as he watched the place where the creature would appear. "Ha ha! Yes! Now to kill you!" he said enthusiastically as the rare monster appeared. As his clicked with his mouse to attack the creature, another player attacked it from a distance, and beat him to it. He slammed his head into the keyboard, yelling out curse words at the other player. "Why do I always choose the warrior type classes!?" he said to himself, as he missed his chance to get the rare item.
He then sighed and logged out of the program before standing up. He took a peak out the window, noticing the nice weather. "Ooh. Perhaps a trip to the beach or pool to heighten my spirits would be a good idea." he said with a sly grin.
Pervert... a female voice echoed from inside his head. It was Kitsujokou, his zanpakutou.
"Well, I gotta have fun somehow in this boring world. It's not like Hollows are just flooding out from Hueco Mundo, you know." he said, as he changed into swimming trunks. He grabbed a towel and a bag to put his things in before heading outside.
He took a train to a beach closeby. As he stepped off the train, he had the same grin as when he thought up the idea.
You better wipe that stupid grin off your face, before I decide not to help you out anymore. Kitsujokou said in a stern voice.
"Yeah yeah, Kitsujo Oujo-san..." he replied in a bored tone. He then ran over to the area of the beach with the most girls. As he ran, he spotted a girl sunbathing. He pretended to trip, before landing on top of the girl, grinning on the inside. The girl let out a scream, before tossing Shinjirou to the side and into the sand. "Eh, heh heh heh.... sorry about that, I haven't been to the beach in forever so I was pretty excited... I guess I tripped over something while running." he said, wiping the sand of himself, as he lightly hit himself in the forehead. The girl just stood up and walked off, taking her things with her. "Oh well." he shrugged, as he looked for another 'target'.
Before he could spot anything, though, he noticed a black figure on the horizon, with a familiar energy. "Really...? This happens like every time I go outside..." he thought to himself as he sighed and ran to the changing room. He changed into his normal clothes and took his zanpakutou out of his bag, before turning his body into a spiritual one. He ran out of the changing room, zanpakutou in hand, and faced the the hollow, which was now about 200 feet away. "You gonna help me protect the pretty ladies, Kitsujo?" he asked, looking to his zanpakutou.
Fine... it's not like I have anything against what you're doing. And it's amusing to watch you fail at what you do. the zanpakutou replied.
"Ha ha. Well then let's get started." Shinji said, with an unamused laugh. He jumped into the air, and ran at the hollow, which noticed him as he closed in. The hollow, which took the shape of a bird-like creature, let out a screech, which blew sand at the vizard and the beach-goers. "Just perfect. I just wanna relax at the beach, and then you show up to ruin it for me." he said, as he covered his face to block the sand from his eyes. "I'll just have to show you..." he started, keeping his right hand over his face. "...Just who you're messing with!" as he pulled his hand downward and his voice changed. His face was now covered in a fox-like mask, his now yellow eyes showing through the eye-holes. He then charged at the hollow, drawing his sword and slashing at it. The hollow blocked the attack with it's wing-like hands, causing the blade to deflect off of the creatures body. It let out a low laugh as this happened.
"Great. You're stronger than I thought." Shinjirou said as he jumped back. "So, should I go ahead and do it here?" he said, holding his zanpakutou in one hand and it's sheath in the other; both horizontally.
Go ahead. I'd rather you use my powers than that creature's. Kitsujokou responded in his head.
"Alright then. Now, Destroy your Selfishness, Kitsujokou!" he called out, as his zanpakutou was enveloped in a rainbow-colored reiatsu. As the reiatsu faded, the sword and sheath had turned into fans. At the sight of this, the hollow charged a large cero, and shot it out at Shinjirou. The vizard held out a golden-colored fan and opened it. The cero hit the fan, causing it to lightly flash the same red as the cero, making the attack disappear.
"Ah, a cero huh? How about my cero?" he said with a laugh, as the fan began to glow a rainbow color, before shooting out a large cero. The hollow covered itself with it's wings to block the resulting explosion. After the smoke cleared, the hollows now severly burned arms, parted. And Shinjirou was nowhere in sight.
"Hado 91, Senju Koten Taiho!" a voice called out from behind the hollow. Shinji had got rid of his mask, before he sent the kido at the hollow. As he said this, the hollow turned around, only to see about ten spears of purple light speeding towards him. As he was hit, a large explosion occured, sending a great amount of sand into the air, and destroying the hollow.
I think you went a little overboard with that... Kitsujokou's voice echoed as the zanpakutou returned to normal.
"Eh, it was over fast and I can get back to my fun time, so it's alright probably." he said with a shrug as he returned to the changing room and his physical body. "I'm too tired to do anything now... maybe I should just go back home and read some manga or something..." he said as he walked towards the train and headed back home.
((... I'll probably just change all the dialogue to black only... >< There's too much and not enough time to do so right now. >< ))
