Character Bio : Kaito Saruwatari

Name: Kaito Saruwatari
Age: 15
Height: 6’3
Weight: 174 lbs
Gender: Male

Personality: Kaito is lazy person who doesn’t enjoy work. He is willing to sacrifice his pride and even his life all for the sake of not having to do much work. Even though he can sometimes be surprisingly reliable when his friends are in danger, Kaito rarely ever volunteers to take up the slack of anyone, including his own self. Despite his legendary laziness the young shinigami is literally a genius and has a natural knack for being able to see further into the battle field than many of his opponents. The only time that Kaito ever truly would exert himself is to either save a girl or if he was about to be bested by a girl, that is the one thing that his pride would motivate him for. As far as being a leader and someone that can be looked up to Kaito doesn’t have any interest in being the hero that everyone is all over and praises since he finds such things troublesome. Lastly once Kaito has set his mind to make something happen he refuses to let it go whether it is the right thing to do or the wrong thing to do. To him morals are all relative and he greatly agrees with the philosophies of Socrates, who enjoyed asking questions to challenge points of view that are widely held as common knowledge.

Appearance: Kaito has black hair that falls messily around his face, but he never brushes it away from his eyes because he claims that his vision is not obstructed by it. His eyes are an odd red color, almost crimson in nature and they can be seen even in the dark when the rest of Kaito’s body is hidden. Normally donning a normal kimono and obi, as is the norm among shinigami, but he doesn’t like to wear the white undergarments that most shinigami like to wear since it causes him too much trouble to put on in the morning. Despite his disgust for doing training of any type he is physically blessed with a lean, athletic body. His physique is impressive in that his muscles are well defined, but his lanky body keeps him from having any real bulk to himself. Lastly, despite his extremely young age even by the standards of the living Kaito constantly keeps a blowpipe that is fashioned out of bamboo in his mouth, never removing it when he is speaking to elders or those of higher ranking than himself.



Sealed Zanpakutō : Doesn't have one. Blade is always released.

Shikai:

+2 to Spirit power, Speed and Fighting Skill.

Call out phrase: Omoi O Terashimasu (Enlighten the mind), Á Bao A Qu

Description of released form:
Kaito’s released zanpakutou looks like an ordinary chokuto, the only difference being that it is completely black, although the black is the kind that is seen in the mineral obsidian which is found near volcanoes. The hilt is black and is made of polished onyx which is found near volcanoes; it is very smooth to the touch making it easy to handle. The blade is black as well with the image of an eye carved into its surface on both sides near the center of the blade itself reminding Kaito of the spirit's intentions and that it sees everything. Lastly the length of the blade doesn't change.




Abilities:

Ability 1:
Makyō Hyōshō (Demonic Mirrors) : Using his reiatsu, Kaito can create a dome of twenty-one mirrors made out of pink glass to trap an opponent. Twelve remain at ground level, eight are placed above the first twelve and angled toward the ground, and the final mirror is above the rest and facing the ground. Kaito can then enter one of the mirrors and instantly transport to another mirror. While moving about he bombards the opponent with attacks at very high speeds, such that the rest of the world appear to be moving in slow motion compared to him. If the mirror Kaito is in is broken, he can leap out of one of the fragments and continue his attack or move to another mirror. The technique requires a large amount of reiatsu to maintain, so Kaito's movement becomes progressively slower the longer he maintains the mirrors. The number of posts that Kaito is able to use this ability is determined by his current spirit power divided by 12 after which case he must dispel the technique and wait for at least a one post period.

Second ability:

Awa No Yokuatsu (Suppression of the Bubble): Kaito points the tip of his zanpakutou at a target which can be at any range. This target is then enveloped within a bubble of reiatsu, but the opponent can only be enveloped under the command "Gokuin (seal)". Once the target has been trapped inside the bubble, Kaito can move the bubble around at will with the wave of his zanpakutou in any direction at the cost of a small sum of reiatsu. Lastly on the command "Heki" the bubble detonates from the inside out creating an explosion that is reflected inward toward the target based upon how much more spirit power Kaito has than his opponent. If the opponent has less than 35% of Kaito's spirit power then this move is an instant K.O for the person and they run the risk of being killed by the attack. The limit of how many targets can be entrapped in this technique is equal to Kaito's spirit power divided by 30. He can contain all targets within respective bubbles for three posts and can only hold one target in one bubble.

Third Shikai Ability:

Constant Release: Due both in part to Kaito's large reserves of spiritual power and his newfound connection with his zanpakutou, the blade, Á Bao A Qu remains in shikai state constantly. This gives Kaito immediate access to all of the zanpakuto's abilities and the physical description of the blade is changed to its unsealed state. Furthermore this means that any bonuses Kaito gets in the release of shikai are immediately added on since the blade is always released.

Bankai Achieved:

+4 to Spirit Power, Speed and Fighting Skill

Call out phrase for Bankai: Bankai! Asura Á Bao A Qu! (Fighting Demon in a Swirl of Ambition)

Description of the Bankai:

The bankai takes the form of a skeletal black armor that only covers the top half of Kaito's body leaving the hakama pants in their normal state. The helmet is designed like a skull with an open mouth and Kaito's face is between the two jaw lines. On both shoulders there are eyes facing outward so that he can see everything to his sides without looking. On his chest and back rest another set of eyes offering the same increase in range of vision as the ones on his shoulder. In this state Kaito's hands are enveloped in the armor and aren't visible instead there are two crimson red blades, that are retractable into the mouths of what appear to skulls although they are deformed to some extent. The skulls that are placed at his hands have eyes also enabling him to see with them as well; when using bankai Kaito is able to simultaneously view the world through all these eyes at once.

Ability 1:

Mastery

Description of ability: This initial ability grants Kaito the ability to use his shikai powers upon whatever target any of the eyes rest upon; there are several blind spots that his opponent must find to take advantage of this. Also the bankai is a compression style bankai which grants him high speed combat abilities and full utilization of his zanpakutou's power.


History/Background: In life Kaito was a laid-back, jovial young man who was rather blunt and was very unafraid to tell people how he felt, even going so far as being disrespectful to his superiors. Most people thought him to be a lazy, uncaring slacker, but on the contrary he was a man of high morals - in fact, it was his idealistic dream to purify the world of its woes and trouble. He practiced martial arts and was a prominent figure in his town’s athletics. He was good enough to get a partial scholarship to a Japanese school of Business. Even there he was always a little bit of head of the pack. He still kept up his martial arts, which was odd for someone like him to be spending his time doing, but he kept doing it because he loved the challenge it presented. Oddly enough he became something of a genius in the Haidong Gumdo, a sword based form of martial arts.

The better he became at martial arts the more he felt his, what he called his "chi" grow. It made him feel good to have such influence and control, and it made him believe that he could take control of his own fate. One night as he was going through his late night "katas" a force slammed him into the wall of his house and Kaito heard an ungodly voice bellow, "what a yummy spiritual pressure". Then Kaito felt what he thought was teeth bear into his flesh. As Kaito felt his life slipping away from him he didn't scream, he didn't pray to God, he didn't even cry out. He calmly looked at the ceiling, closed his eyes while grinning. He muttered to himself, " What a shitty way to go out...Hell is gonna pay for making me die early..."

Fortunately Kaito didn’t end up becoming a hollow since he truly was not overwhelmed with his death. Upon entering Soul Society he was forced to put his incredible mental abilities to good use just to survive the harsh realities of the Rukongai area. He made a name of himself by studying his opponents or those who had threatened to harm him long before the time for confrontation came. Even before he was a shinigami he had a knack for watching an opponent and being able to understand their abilities, both strengths and weaknesses. One day he ran into a shinigami and impressed the shinigami with his ability to read the situation and he was immediately sent to the academy to harness his incredible potential. After be enrolled for only two weeks Kaito soon became one of the most talked about students in academy history, but it was because he was failing all of his classes as a result of his being lazy. Eventually Kaito managed to pull himself together and in doing so he ended up becoming one of the select few students to ever obtain a ranked position upon their graduated from the academy. Currently Kaito is moving to try and become a lieutenant although his own laziness will be his own worst enemy. The personality behind Kaito's past is dark and it has already seen to be giving the young shinigami problems as he tries to realize which part of him is the real Kaito Saruwatari.[/font]

Rp sample: Kaito was laying down on a wagon as he was being pulled through the countryside of the Rukongai area. The driver of the carriage hadn’t noticed when he had managed to sneak his way onto the cart. The air blew through the boy’s dark as he puffed on his blow pipe and watched the smoke give away which direction the wind was blowing. Kaito loved to see the heavy smoke particles disperse into the open air was other elements mixed in with the smoke creating an entirely new compound. It made him wonder about the subtleties of the world that people missed simply because they paid way too much attention to useless stuff without ever asking themselves the importance of doing the activities in the first place. With a sigh he started to close his eyes when suddenly the cart jerked to a stop, quickly jarring him out of is comfortable dozing.

Kaito heard a roar and he groan audibly as he realized what had happened. At first he continued to lay down hoping that he wouldn’t have to do anything, but then the old man in an attempt of trying to escape the hollow spotted him, “Y-Y-You’re a shinigami, right?” the old man stammered. Kaito didn’t bother to answer since he refused to fight the hollow in the first place he felt it didn’t matter whether or not he explained that he was a shinigami or not. It looked as if the old man was going to continue to beg Kaito when suddenly the hollow sprung upon him, knocking him out of the cart and onto the ground. At this Kaito let out another sigh as he grabbed the hilt of his zanpakutou while standing up. While he did get up the boy didn’t want to stand up completely so he propped himself up into a crouching position as he stared completely uninterested at the hollow, “Alright, just die so I can get to sleep…” Kaito lazily said to the hollow. The hollow didn’t take to well to his warning and instead attacked Kaito, who didn’t bat an eye, he quickly calculated the distance between him and the hollow as he flicked some of the hay from the kart up into the air.

“That should do it” he thought watching as the straw got into the eyes, mouth, and nostrils of the damned hollow in front of him. It sailed by him having been blinded and Kaito decapitated it, without any witty remarks or prideful arrogance. It wasn’t his style because he was too lazy for such things. He looked to the old man, “Come on, you troublesome person” he said, “Get back to driving” he complained as the last of the hollow’s spirit particles dissipated into the thin air.
