THE SHINIGAMI APPLICATION
Name: Okami Shiba
Real Age: Pfft, you'll never get a straight answer, but somewhere between 1,500 and 2,000
Phys. Age: Early-Mid Twenties
Gender: Male
Personality: Okami is typically relaxed and easy-going, quickly forgiving those who wrong him. This is not because he is too trusting, however. He is an amazing judge of character, and can often tell when someone is lying without even monitoring for changes in reiatsu. While he does enjoy a good fight, Okami is not one to waste time extending them. He dispatches his enemies quickly and hates long, drawn out battles. He has much respect for most of his opponents, and honors their valor before killing them so that they know he harbors no ill will. When a loved one is at risk or killed, however, Okami is utterly merciless and sadistic. While fighting against someone on an equal level, he will often escalate his reiatsu as the fight dictates so that he doesn’t exhaust himself, as not even he can withstand the full force of his own power. However, if an opponent is stronger than him, Okami will put his full force into his opening blows to harry his enemy’s advance and prevent them from using their own techniques.
When around women, the esteemed Shiba Clan Head changes slightly. His aloof behavior becomes even more pronounced, and his judgment tends to err more often. He is a severe romantic, and will often attempt to woo those that catch his eye. He is undeniably straight, however, and this never wavers. Okami's ideal woman varies, as he views each as a unique work of art, valued in their own way. Tsukiakari Shojo comes first in his mind, as she is the embodiment of his "soulmate", as he views it, and if she disapproves of his actions or his choice in companions, he will immediately rectify this slight against her.

- Appearance:
BACK-DROP
History: He's a good, loyal soldier of the Gotei. Sort of. That being said, you'll never get him to tell you the whole story. You had to be there.
Exposition: Deep into that darkness, peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before...
Side Notes: Nothing of note.
THE COMBAT INFORMATION
General Fighting Style: Okami relies heavily on Zanjutsu and his Zanpakuto's unique abilities, but has a working knowledge of high-level Kidou to raw from as well. He tends to use his experience and creativity to his advantage in combat, often coming across as a berserker due to his tendency to never let up until he is physically incapable of doing so.
Strengths: Zanjutsu, Reiatsu, Reiryoku
Weaknesses: Durability, Endurance, Sensing
Ability Name: Kengou Battou: Ishana-Daitenshou
Ability Description: The ultimate sword attack, one that Okami learned from a mortal, of all places. It is a single strike that cuts beyond the concept of "Zero", reaching into a realm of nothingness - a true emptiness beyond human understanding, beyond even the rift of reality and dreams and forcing a finite outcome within infinity. Everything within a 150 meter radius is devastated with the force of two Forbidden Kidou, and Okami is rendered incapable of continuing combat for the rest of the thread.
Ability Name: Hitotsume: Nadegiri
Ability Description: A precision cut of extreme force and speed which can casually slice through large, multi-story high opponents protected by steel skin. This slash is so precise and swift, its victims are typically not even aware of it until after it has taken place. This technique requires a three post cooldown.

Zanpakutou Name: Tsukiakari Shojo
Call Out Command: Eclipse
- Shikai [Unlocked at 3-2]:
SHIKAI Appearance: Once released, Tsukiakari Shojo’s wrapping turns a gleaming white, with a black silk ribbon running around three feet from the pommel. - Inner World Description:
Spirit Appearance: Tsukiakari Shojo appears as a young woman, somewhere between 19 and 23, with soft locks of silver hair that frames her face. She seems endowed with a beauty unmatched, one that drives viewers to swear their undying allegiance without thinking. Her figure is both curvaceous and slim, one that many models would kill for. A pair of glacial rifts cut through the pale icicles of her eyelashes, orbs of ice that cut through the soul. She appears before viewers clad only in a veil of steam, which solidifies into a white toga when she is materialized outside of Okami’s Inner World.
Spirit Personality: Tsukiakari Shojo cares about Okami and worries for him almost to the point where one might think they were lovers. To an extent, they would be correct. She is a kind and sweet girl, but she feels like Okami’s pain is her fault, no matter what happened to hurt him. She can almost be fickle at times, seeming cold and distant even to Okami, because she is angry at herself. To others, however, she hardly ever shows her loving, caring smile, leaving them ignorant of the beauty of her heart and lusting after the beauty of her flesh.
Inner World: Okami’s Inner World resembles a Roman Bathhouse lying open to a Full Moon, the water steaming and refreshing as one looks to the stars spattered across the black curtain of sky, lost in thought. The pillars are made of rose quartz, with white marble underfoot. Towels lay neatly stacked on a mahogany shelf nearby, and a dozen pairs of slippers line up underneath in cubbyholes. The steam swirls around the room, spiraling lazily into the night.
Abilities: Name: Phase 1: Waxing Crescent Effect: Reiatsu molds itself around Tsukiakari Shojo, surrounding the entire sword with a light reminiscent of an oversized claymore. This stance devotes all of the user’s power to offense, sacrificing the usual addition to your physical durability granted by Shikai in order to hit harder, faster, and have more reiatsu. (x2.5 to Strength, Speed, and Reiatsu) Name: Phase 2: Full Moon Effect: The silk dangling from the hilt of the sword wraps around the user’s sword arm to allow the energy enveloping Tsukiakari Shojo during Waxing Crescent to spread, forming into an armored mantle with rough, short wings spreading out from between the user’s shoulder blades. This ability enhances the effect of Waxing Crescent by using 40% of the reishi that makes up his skeletal structure to enhance his reiatsu output and raw muscle density, sacrificing even more of his physical well-being for the sake of power. Full Moon is not to be taken lightly, as any damage sustained while using it is 1.5x what it would normally be. (x3 to Strength, Speed, and Reiatsu, x0.75 to Durability) Technique Name: Shingetsu Namida Technique Description: Tsukiakari Shojo devours the reiatsu of her wielder and condenses it, imbuing the blade of the sword with an overcharged veil of raw moonlight. This energy can then be released from the point of the sword in a large, slashing blast, or it can be released along the edge of the blade to enhance a physical blow. This technique has a 2 post cool-down. Think Getsuga Tensho. Technique Name: Moonlight Manipulation Technique Description: Using this technique, Okami can manipulate reishi as long as it is touched by moonlight. This technique isn't quite as powerful as a Quincy's Reishi Domination, but it still grants a tactical advantage, as the moonlight given off by his Shikai expands outward in a 15 meter radius, allowing him to control any atmospheric spirit particles to his whim. They can strike like swords, or shield him form harm. For clarity's sake, this ONLY affects atmospheric and inanimate reishi. Living reishi, such as that making up the body of a spiritual being, is incapable of being controlled. This technique may be used instantly, and has a one post cooldown before he can create another effect.
- Bankai [Unlocked at 2-1]:
BANKAI New Name: Tsukiakari Tenshi Appearance: To unleash his Bankai, Okami places the blade of Tsukiakari Shojo upon his neck and slashes. Calling out the command phrase “Bankai…”, a vicious, towering hurricane of silver reiatsu forms around him, breaking as Okami spreads the wings that make up the core of the sphere enveloping him. After this, he concludes the command phrase with a name, “…Tsukiakari Tenshi.” Tsukiakari Tenshi’s hilt binds Okami’s fist in a gauntlet the same shade of brilliant platinum as the blade, fusing the Zanpakuto to her Shinigami. The chain formerly attached to the pommel wraps around his sword arm, connecting his fist to a now-solid armored mantle covering both of Okami’s shoulders. The silk ribbon is gone, fusing into a spiral patterned tattoo down the Shinigami’s left arm, shrouding his hand with a silvery flame of pure reiryoku. Large wings made of this same reiryoku flow from between his shoulder blades, mirroring the amount of reiatsu Okami has left at his disposal. His Shihakusho is stained by his release, the kosode and hakama turning white while his gi and obi become black as pitch. This reversal of colors reverts back once Bankai has ended. Abilities: Ability Name: Saigo no Dankai: Gesshoku (End Phase: Lunar Eclipse) Ability Description: This ability takes effect the moment Okami activates his Bankai. Tsukiakari Tenshi draws every drop of reiatsu from his blood, sacrificing any hope of defense. In return, his offensive abilities attain their peak and he gains the ability to control any atmospheric reishi, as long as moonlight touches it. His Shikai techniques require half as much time to charge or cool down, and are fired from his left hand, while techniques granted by Bankai are fired from his right. The additional bonuses to durability from using Bankai is converted to his offensive capabilities, along with his natural defenses. The result is that Okami takes twice the normal amount of damage when struck, his offensive capabilities are multiplied by a factor of four instead of the normal three. This includes his physical strength, his speed, and his reiatsu output. Okami is incapable of maintaining this ability for too long, reverting Tsukiakari Tenshi back to his sealed Zanpakuto. He must then stay at that stage for 5 posts before he may activate his Shikai again. The amount of time left in this state is determined by the number of stars left in Ribenji Hoshi. Technique Name: Shingetsu Namida (Bankai Version) Technique Description: This technique is an advanced form of the counterpart used in Okami’s Shikai state, requiring the user to focus heavier reiatsu into the blade and grind it while it condenses, resulting in a much finer grade of moonlight that may be collected for the attack. Thus, the attack can be molded into various forms, and silvery flames of astral power can be seen flickering about both the blast and Tsukiakari Tenshi as it charges. This attack requires 3 posts to cool down before it may be used again. Technique Name: Ribenji Hoshi (Fallen Stars) Technique Description: Okami creates these crystalline stars upon entering his Bankai state. There are eight in total, each one made up of 4 fragmented points, and are responsible for the collection and infusion of reishi to be used in his various techniques, and allow him to manipulate it at will. They reflect the moonlight given off from Okami’s Bankai, and also gather natural light if available. Every post and whenever a Bankai technique is used, one of these stars shatters. This displays how much time Okami has left during Saigo no Dankai: Gesshoku. Technique Name: Tsuin Ten no Ryū (Dragon of Twin Heavens) Technique Description: Okami draws upon all of the power and reishi available to him to create a massive Tien Lung out of moonlight. The dragon’s movement mirrors that of Tsukiakari Tenshi, and it is controlled by Okami through his will. Its breath fires in a line extending 50 meters, and acts as Shingetsu Namida (Bankai Version) for purposes of damage, while bites act as its Shikai variant. It can take 4 actions, attacking or defending, before dissipating. A breath attack may only be one of these actions. Tsuin Ten no Ryū requires 2 posts to charge, and requires 5 posts to cool down after the end.
- Toukai [Unlocked at 0-5:
TOUKAI New Name: Megumi Kara Ochiru Appearance: Visually similar to his Bankai state, the first thing one would notice about Megumi Kara Ochiru would be the lack of wings and Ribenji Hoshi, while the second would be that his blade is off-colored, a bone white instead of it's normal platinum, and his clothing retains their original colors. His pauldron on the left side is gone completely, as is the tattoo, while the one on the right is cracked and made of the same bone material as the blade, with the chain attaching it to the gauntlet below still intact. Abilities: Megumi Kara Ochiru (Fall from Grace) - This ability, which shares it's name with Okami's Toukai, discards all of Okami's reiatsu and converts it to raw physical power. This ability takes effect immediately upon release, and shifts his boosts to x6 to Strength, Speed, and Durability, with x0 to Reiatsu and Reiryoku. Kenatsu - Okami is capable of striking with enough force to produce a significant amount of air pressure, extending his blows by about twenty feet. Tokiakasu (Unravel) - Due to his utter lack of spiritual energy, Okami's sword begins to eat away at it's surroundings, cutting through any mundane material effortlessly.
