 THE HOLLOW APPLICATION Name: Legion True Age: Unknown Sex: Unclear Personality: Legion is an interesting case, as it is a hollow that has consumed countless souls, be it human, shinigami or fellow hollow. Though it hasn’t added them to it’s power, it has assimilated them completely into itself. As such, it’s doesn’t truly have it’s own personality. Instead, it has formed a sort of meta-personality that is the summation of every single being that is apart of it’s body. Every single one of the multitude of souls gives its input before it’s thoughts are formed. They are sort of like neurons in a sense, all firing together to form memories and opinions. As such, this being is very calculated and tends to speak in a calm tone. Nothing it does is random, everything has it’s purpose. It likes to manipulate and control other beings, find hollows the easiest to prey on, but others tend to fall astray just as easily. Those around Legion tend to feel as though it it watching their every move, looking for a chink in their armour or a moment of weakness, anything that it could use as leverage against them. It does this to try and find underlings or simply another meal to feed it’s unending hunger. It tends to feel like it’s superior to most other beings, though not in a sense of sheer power but potential in it’s power. Thousands of souls and minds all working together to create a perfect being. It feels as if everything it does is justified or right, never admitting to doing wrong despite its somewhat sadistic nature. It enjoys toying with it’s victims, relishing the kill. Despite this, it is smart enough to know that stronger beings exist and will often ally with them as long as it suits its own ends. It has no loyalty to anything other than itself.

THE COMBAT INFORMATION General Fighting Style: Legion does very little in a fight, generally it hardly even moves. It relies on its potent manipulation abilities to both protect and defend it. Strengths: Overwhelming Spiritual Pressure: Weaker beings will find it difficult to breathe with the crushing pressure of it’s spiritual power upon them. A foreboding sense of danger seems to linger around it that one can’t quite shake from their minds Immense Reiryoku Pool: With the amount of souls the creature has absorbed, its body has managed to retain much of the spiritual energy of these beings, giving it an incredible pool of energy to call upon if given the need. When fully utilized, this energy seems to be incredibly dark, almost solid black. Perfect Control: Legion is capable of controlling its spiritual energy and pressure to the finest degree. If it wants, it can become almost completely invisible to sensing, or overwhelm it’s foes with crushing pressure. Impeccable Spiritual Sensing: Legion is capable of incredible feats of sensing a spiritual presence. No matter how small, it is able to find it. It is so sensitive it can tell exactly where something is if it has any sort of spiritual energy, and differentiate beings by subtle differences in their energy signature. Weaknesses: Durability: Despite the impressive defence it gains with its shadows, Legion’s body is quite weak. With no natural armour to speak of, it is particularly easy to damage (Though killing it is a different matter entirely) Physical Strength: Physically, Legion is fairly weak when it comes to fighting in melee, relying completely on it’s powers to defend and attack. Speed: With a lack of speed-enhancing abilities, Legion is fairly slow compared to most. HOLLOW ABILITIES Vasto Lorde Abilities: Boosts: x4 Reiatsu, x4 Reiryoku, x4 Control Perfect Assimilation: When consuming a soul, Legion doesn’t simply gain power but gains all its knowledge and memories, able to use this new information as it wills. A being that gets assimilated is added to the collective of souls. Its control of spiritual energy and mastery of manipulation allow it to completely pacify any soul it devours, none can break free of its will. Master-Level Shadow Manipulation: Legion is able to both create and control shadows as it wills. All of Legions abilities use its control stat in place of speed/strength. Hallowed Ground (Passive): When a fight begins, Legion unleashes its energy as a dark floor of shadows, that stretch out further and further that give it the ability to attack from anywhere inside its area of influence
Shadow Burial: Legion attempts to engulf a target completely with its shadows, a large maw forms underneath their feet and simply tries to swallow them whole. Should the mouth clouse around them, escape is difficult as the shadows constrict and crush the life out of whatever it has. If the target should die while captured, they are immediately assimilated.
Blades of the Night: Using reiatsu-enriched shadows condensed to a sharp point, Legion may attack from any of its currently controlled shadows. Strong enough to defend against a shinigami’s zanpakuto though only temporarily. These ‘blades’ may appear from any of Legion’s shadows.
Spear of the Underworld: By concentrating more of its energy into a single blade, Legion is capable of producing a spear of incredible speed and devastating damage, the energy condensed in this spear will explode on impact.
Grasping Abyss: From its shadows, small tendrils of darkness spread and reach out to Legions target. Wrapping around limbs and bodies to slow them down and try to stop them. These tendrils are strong, but not unbreakable.
Jaws of the Beast: A flat but wide shadow stretches towards its target, splitting in half to reveal razor sharp teeth before it attempts to cleave its target. Almost like a pair of scissors. A pair of scissors with large teeth.
Bulwark: By drawing its shadows into a condensed and solid form, Legion is able to defend itself from attacks. It can generate up to three of these shields and is capable of hiding them inside its other shadows until needed.
Perfect Dark (Finisher Ability): In an impressive display, Legion uses it’s shadows to engulf its entire area of manipulation in a sphere of dense shadows. Inside this sphere is lit as if there was a full moon in the night's sky. When stuck in this sphere, Legion is able to attack from nearly any direction.
Cero Perdición (Only usable during Perfect Dark): Legion’s most devastating ability, its shadows begin to form into a sphere around it’s hand. Light seems to disappear in the area inside the dome until it releases the devastating blast. Surging forward, the dark energy seems to reflect no light as it blasts through anything it touches, destroying it completely.
Aberrant Physiology: Legion has the ability to regenerate from nearly any injury with incredible speed. Other than having it’s mask destroyed of course. It also seems to show no signs of pain despite wounds that may inflicted. Upon being cut, it doesn’t even seem to bleed. It’s insides being comprised of the same shadows it manipulates for its attacks. It also seems entirely capable of seeing with its eyes covered by its mask. Possibly attributed to its ability to sense spiritual energy.
BACK-DROP Background: Originally, the hollow known as Legion was just a single soul that had fallen to despair beyond death and become hollow. From this very humble beginning the unfortunate soul would as expected for one of it’s kind, eat. And with so many humans around it had plenty to nourish itself. Unlike some of its mindless brethren, it seemed to relish the hunt. Humans made for the most interesting prey of course. The ways it could manipulate them to cause further loss of life, without any effort on its own part. And as much as it loved these games, it began to peak in its strength before long. It needed more souls, and humans tended to only carry the one. Each soul it had devoured had made the beast stronger and more importantly more intelligent. This gave the hollow an edge over the less evolved kin and made them a much greater food source. So it traveled off to a world full of its own kind, Hueco mundo. All this new prey allowing it to add more to its collective, making it crave more and more. The voices in it’s head began to die out slowly, almost silenced with whispers and mumbles as a new personality was forged in its being. Like a vast network of information, it became an apex predator of it’s domain in the Forest of Menos, in the deepest reaches that became a sort of forbidden zone to many of the hollow that resided there. A monster to it’s own race, Legion was content in its new home. Making regular excursions outside to sate its hunger and its quest for perfection and make sure that the others never forgot about it. Though as more and more hollows began to leave, finding new places to hide or simply face the desert and the possible wrath of the arrancar or maybe even a shinigami raid or two. As it’s food supply began to grow sparse, it left its home after countless years. It had changed dramatically. It almost looked human again, though it’s golden mask was worn to cover a majority of its face. Only ever showing it’s mouth, generally curled into a smile despite its less than friendly intentions. From what it could tell the world had changed quite a lot since its last time in the endless night of Hueco Mundo, in the distance it saw a large building a curiosity that it couldn’t ignore. So it went on it’s way, off to find its next meal. Side Notes: Does this unit have a soul, Shepard Commander? RP Sample: |
