His eyes are a emerald green but change the moment he touches his Zanpakuto, they change from green to a shinning blue this is a result of Ri's deep connection with his Zanpakut, Gaircas. His small build and stature lies about his really abilities which only work in his favor as others tend to underestimate him due to his appearance.

Along his Arm is a scar that was magnificently turn into a tattoo of a snowdrop and on his back there is a tattoo of Gaircas the same that is on his sheath as well. Similar to his eye when Ri touches his Zanpakuto the tattoo on his back glows though see as his back is usually cover it is rarely seen by anyone. He carries his Zanpakuto on the right side of his hip, being left handed and on the left side he carries a bottle made of Sekkiseki, this was given to Ri as a gift from Yoshi Masahito a master stone mason.

The blade curves upward at the end, the guard is a Z shaped with a sharp point extending over the hilt. At the end of the hilt is pointed crystal, it is this that allows Ri to gather the reiatsu in the air and use it to replenish his own.Upon release Ri's demeanour changes into the experience fighter he is rather then the cynical bastard he's become of late, his eyes also changed from green to a shinning blue. Ability 1: Buile an Cas (Fury of wind) Capable of manipulating the wind and Reiatsu around the sword to create incredible force of wind capable to cutting men in two.

Shikai ability #2: Rásúr Ri sprouts magnification wings that can be folded around him to form a strong plate of armour around Ri’s torso and arm. This armour is difficult to break through but is very light to wear. The wings can be used for offensive means in two ways. First being Eite Rásúr where the wings launch at the target and spin at high speeds that cut through the air making the attack deadly fast should the wings survive they will reattach to Ri. The second is cleite rásúr this is where the feather fly from the wings of Ri and launch themselves at the target , the feather cut through the air again making them very fast and deadly. Wings Image Ability 3# Ri allows his Reiatsu to flow without restraint creating a hurricane around him, a person must be of high spirit pressure just to survive the intense pressure Ri emits within this hurricane.

History/Background: Earth Ri grew up in a lovely family on Earth and enjoyed his childhood. He spent his young life carefree never worrying about another. When he hit adolescence he started hearing noises nobody else could and soon he could see spirits. At first he denied them eventually he accepted they were really but ignored them all the same When he was 18 he was walking home from work on day and heard screams from an ally. without hesitating Ri ran into the dark and found a group of thugs sounding a young lady. In an act of foolish bravery Ri ran into the group swing. He stayed conscious enough to watch the lady run away then he pasted out. He awoke a while late and to his admonishment wasn't hurt, not even a bruise A few moments later the young lady returned with a police officer and described what happened. Ri tried to call to them but they could he him then when the lady point toward a dark corner is when Ri saw him self lying in a stoop covered in blood. He looked back to the women, she was it tears. Her dress the ripped and he top was hanging off, the police man had given her his jacket to keep warm but the thought of what might of happened if Ri hadn't help made dying worth it then living knowing he could of stopped it. He wandered for sometime trying to figure out what to do. He attended his funeral and tried to comfort his family which he liked to think help them. His family was proud of him he was raised to respect life and dieing to save a stranger made his family very proud. Eventually a man dressed in black robe came for Ri, at first Ri refused to pass over but after a length talk with the man Ri decided to passover and so he entered the Soul society Soul Society Ri found life in the Soul Society harder then he thought it would be but he survived but only barely. He wondered thorugh the districts never staying in one place to long. He survived by working in bar but after a few years in the Society his memory of life fade and soon all he knew was the Soul Society. He learned the ways of the society and became highly interest in Shinigami, he was told often by the one he came across that he had a wealth of spirit pressure inside him. Ri always found himself hungry a trait only those with spiritual pressure had in the soul society. After some thought Ri decided to attend the Shinigami Academy. At the academy he didn't have many friends at first, he was to busy making sure he was top of the class but after a few months there and after establishing he was the best in year bar none he soon developed a number of friends. His time during the academy was easy more or less, he never found any of the work difficult. He spent most his time trying to communicate with his Zanpakuto and sparring anyone who came across his path, Captains included. His time at the academy was short lived and Ri soon saw himself enter the gotei 13 as a unseated member of squad eleven. It was here Ri came to know Kaiyo as both a skilled shinigami and Captain but also as a dear friend. It didn't take Ri long to become a seated officer though he had rivals and none as fearsome as Kaoseu. Kaoseus and Ri fought constantly each trying to out do the other but it always pleased Ri to call Kaoseu friend. Thought Ri found his time with squad eleven enjoyable and made a number of friendship that would serve him well in the future he decided to transfer into squad ten and it was here he met Kurama. When Ri first entered the squad he found himself a subordinate of Kurama but that wasn't the case for long. Ri pushed himself further and further everyday, relentless and determined nothing was going to stop him. After some time within squad ten he rose to fifth seat but just as his time with squad eleven he soon felt his time with squad ten was coming to a close. It was now that Ri entered into squad thirteen. When her entered the squad was in chaos with no Captain or lieutenant to guide them Ri soon found himself leading the squad as the highest seated member. The men grew to respect and trust Ri as a leader and as a brother in arms. Ri's friends in the sqaud were many but none ment so much to him as Izlara. Revenge – - Spoiler:
Lights flashed by as the car start gaining more and more speed , every few seconds the car swerved out overtaking cars with ease even the police had no chance of catching the car. Ri was sitting far back into the passenger seat , thought slightly terrified there was something enjoyable about it. He looked over at Izlar who was driving the car , she hand one hand on the wheel , her foot had the peddle flat and her eye didn't blink
Both her and Ri were assigned to a German town that neither of them could pronounce nor did they try. In gigis both wandered the street and 'by accident' Izlar had come into possession of car.Ri didn't speak he was afraid to distracted Izlar even for a moment.
Passing cars became nothing more then stretched lights as Izlar pushed the car faster , in the distance sirens could be heard but not seen. Then with out warning Izlar break sharply making the car spin around six or seven time before coming to a stop. When the car came to a stop Izlar exited her Gigi and Ri could see why standing in the middle of the road a short distance away was a man hold a Zanpakuto and on his head a cracked mask.
Ri quickly popped a soul candy into both gigis and order then to run. He could hear the car quickly turn and speed off as he charged after Izlar. Izlar had already engaged but she wasn't doing well , he strikes and kido were being blocked by the arrancars arm with ease, he was toying with her.
Ri knew she was out of her league but he knew better then to ask her to Run. Ri wasted no time and called Gáircas out into her released state. Ri flash stepped but as he did the arrancar landed a kick into Izlars gut and then turn in time to block Ri's strike.
“Now here is the challenge I seek” He said as he struggled to hold Ri's blade in his hand. Ri unleashed his pressure and slowly his blade began to cut through the arrancars skin. Using his own form of shunpo the Arrancar vanished then reappeared above Ri his Zanpakuto in hand ready to strike.
“Buile an Cas triple” Ri said as he swiped at the arrancar sending three blast up at him , the first he dodged the second struck his stomach and the second removed his hand sending his Zanpakuto fly to land on the ground. Izlar immediately shunpo'd and stood on the blade , that was a mistake.
Before Ri could register what happened the Arrancar moved behind Izlar and with a truly sinister grin he raised one hand then forced it through Izlars back and out her stomach. For a moment Ri couldn't move then his entire being was absorbed into anger and rage.
Ri shunpo'd toward the Arrancar and launching into a fury of strikes aiming for the arrancars limb in order to inflict the most damaged without killing him, he didn't deserve a quick death. Firing two Buile an Cas Ri removed the Arrancars two arms and started into launching a final blow when the sky grew dark and cracks began to appear Ri stopped to look up and saw a number of Meno's faces fill the sky. A bright light surround the Arrancar and carried him away as his laugh filled the air.
Knowing his could do nothing Ri ran to Irlar side, she pulled her self to the side of the road out of harm way. Ri could she from the amount of blood she was in danger, he gripped her hand and starred into her eyes.
“Please say with me” Ri said desperately as he pressed a finger into his ear that held his mic and ordered immediate squad four assistance. Turn back he could see Izlars eye begin to fade , as if the life the drain from her.
“Ri.” She said softly as he raised a hand and stroked Ri's tearfully face. Even in this state she kept her loving peaceful nature. “ Before I …. Before I... I want to tell you”.
“Don't speak like that your not going anyway , I won't let you” Ri said his voice quivere with a number of uncontrollable emotions , tears now ruled his face and a number dropped off his chin to land on the ground.
“I wanted to tell you I've always loved you ever since our first meeting I've loved you” Izlar said speaking in such a normal and calm manner even though he hands were growing cold and her eyes were growing heavy.
“I know, I love you too, please don't die” Ri begged ,somewhere inside him he knew nothing could be done her wounds were to great and help was to far away but he refused to believe it, he just couldn't
“Let me leave this life happy Ri” Izlar asked as a single tear rolled off her face. Ri wiped the tear away and leaned in passionately kissing Izlar. Her lips were cold , her hand had dropped to the ground , her eyes were shut but she was smiling.
Two member from squad four arrived and took care of Izlars body and Ri sobbed alone by the roadside, though he felt sorrow along with many emotion one thing was on his mind, revenge.He followed the four four member back through the gate.
Arriving back in the soul society Ri didn't follow Izlar , instead he waited a for a few moment at the gate until it close. He walked toward the few kido corp member who operated the gate, all were cover from head to toe in robes and cloth.
For a moment Ri said nothing , he chose his words carefully and made sure his resolve was absolute “By order of the acting squad thirteen captain open the gate to Hueco Mundo”
Ri stood still , his feet sank slightly into the sand. He thought of how exactly he would find his prey and decided instead of searching he'd lure his prey to him. Ri smiled as he let his pressure flow free , the wind around him began to circle him violently and soon a sand storm was flowing around Ri.
He slowly started walking as his released Zanpakuto vibrated in his hand , he wasn't the only one enraged by the days events even Gáircas was howling for blood. The desert seem peaceful to the normal eye but Ri could feel the mass movements of hollow beneath him in the menos forest.
"Are you ready Ri?" Gáircas's asked in her calm collected tone, it reminded him of Izlars similar tone. A singled tear glided down him face and fell into the sand.Then from behind the see able horizon an echoing roar sounded.
Ri could now see an uncountable number of hollows of all rank , from low level hollow to meno's of all levels. Ri slowed his breath as the wind picked up, the sight of hollow and only fuelled his rage.
"Gáircas I ask you once more fight with me , help me see this day to its end" Ri said in a suddenly calm tone. He felt Gáircas vibrate in his hand and he knew the answer. Moving with speed he'd ever known before Ri was in the centre of the horde before even he knew it.
Firing off a number of blast Ri started whittling down the number of the hollows around him though every time one died another three took his place but that only meant more hollows for Ri to vent his anger on.
Prying his blade from a dead hollows mask he swung it around and cut through a hollows throat then set his sight on a towering gillian a rare sight to see them in the desert.
" Buile an Cas" Ri roar with all his might as he swung his blade in a full circle, a concentrated blast fired in every direction utterly obliterating every hollow unlucky enough to be in its path.
"two hundredth and sixty, sixty one , two , four ,eight" Ri count off as he fought with an undieing passion, he wasn't going to stop not till his revenge was complete the Arrancar had said he want a challenge and was Ri giving him that challenge
Ri ploughed his blade through a hollows masks when he felt the presence he'd been waiting on arrive , every hollow seem to shrink in size and retreat from the imposing presence on the newly arrive Arrancar.
"Sorry I'm late but I had to regenerate some of limb you understand. My name , well you may call me Cao" Cao said speaking in emotionless tone that only increased Ri's unmeasurable hatred for him
"Ri O'Nocht thats the name of your killer" Ri said he shunpo'd right in front of Cao and with his free hand he clenched a fist and swung with all his might. His punch connected and caught off guard Cao stumbled back a few pace.
Ri didn't wait for him to recover, he went for Cao neck with a quick and hopefully decisive blow but Cao manage to draw his Zanpakuto in time. The two entered in an exchanged of blows that was fought on instinct and skill. Neither could land a serious blow but upon breaking off both Cao and Ri were covered in small cuts and gashes.
"I see " Cao said as he smirked and wiped some trickles of blood from his face. "Your currently at Shikai level , the first release allow me to release my power aswell. End it all!"
Ri could feel Cao's pulse with power unlike anything Ri had ever felt before, Cao's pressure forced Ri's winds to retreat. Cao's white armour peeled off his body, his arms grew white blades and his zanpakuto spilt into two round blade know as chakram
Ri stood in awe as Cao raised his head and started into Ri's eyes with his own soulless eyes. Ri wanted nothing more to kill him but if he attacked now he'd surely die but weather he attack or not he didn't have the power to match him.
Cao smiled as he threw his two chakram toward Ri, instincively Ri dodge but both of the blade came back around and left two gashes on both of his arm , then again on his leg making him drop to his knee. Now on their final run the blade attempted to cut off Ri's limb from his shoulder, they left two fatal wounds though the arm remained attached.
Ri fell to the ground and took what must be his last breath.Hitting the ground his mind raced with thought of Izlar, he failed her completely now both of them were dead.
"Get up Ri" A familiar voice called out Ri tried to open his eye but he could. He knew the voice but he refused to believe it with out seeing her.
Prying his eye open Ri found himself not in the desert but in his inner sky blue world. He found himself back in good health and Izlar standing over him running her fingers through his hair as he laid his head on her lap.
"This is not your time Ri , you listen to me. Since the day I meant you I knew you had greatness in you without a doubt I knew and so did everyone who ever fought beside you. Now get up and fight , not just for me but for your destiny." Izlar said in her angelic voice.
Ri stood and as he did Izlar felt him for what must be the last time. He now found Gáircas standing before him. She had rage in her eyes but a caring smile on her face.
"Ri this power is not mine but ours all you must do is lease it, I will be able to heal your wounds for a short while but that all we need." Gáircas said speaking very seriously well maintaining the caring quality that was always carried in her voice.
"I am ready Gáircas" Ri said and went he next open his eyes he found himself back lying on the sand, his cut had gone but blood still soaked the sand beneath him. He could hear Cao boasting on the crowds of hollows.
All attention was dragged from Cao onto Ri when he stood , apparently back from the dead. A cocky little grin found it way across Ri's face as he starred up into Cao's scarred eyes.
"This is not going to be quick Cao, I'm going to make you beg." Ri said as he started moving toward Cao who suddenly seemed to remember he had the advantage. Cao said his blades again and launched them at Ri. They flew straight from Ri both aimed for his head and both were inchs away when Ri looked up and spoke
"Bankai"
The area around Ri exloded with both his pressure and winds that seem to flow directly out of Ri. Caos blade were force away due to the high presssure. Ri became surround in his own powers aura , when he next appeared he'd changed dramaticly.
His hair turned a pure white colour, his eyes became a hazy blue. His clothe had changed from the standard black robes to immaculate white attire that seem to shine of its own accord.
His Zanpakuto had gone under a transformation of it own into a greenish-blue staff , it now stood at around six feet taller, then Ri one end seemed to be overflowing with Ri's visible pressure and the other was a blade of sorts.
Ri looked at Cao with nothing but hatred in his eye for a moment Ri didn't move then with no warn Ri appeared behind Cao but left an after image behind. With his free hand his swung around and landed another punch into Cao's face sending him flying to the east.
Ri shunpo'd again and as Cao attempted to gain a footing Ri swiped low and cut into both of Cao's ankles. When Cao appiled force onto his feet they broke the blood soaked the sand.
"ATTACK!" Cao called to the horde of hollow and like the mindless creature they were they charged at Ri. RI spun his staff around his on hand and quickly an almighty hurricane appeared from the calm skies and made it's way toward the horde of hollowing killing many of them. His launched an number of these and then walked over to Cao.
In a swift slice Ri removed all of Cao's limbs , Cao was now lay helpless on the ground unable to doing anything or even speak due to the levels of pain. Ri shunpo'd and stood higher over Cao.
Gripping his staff with both hand Ri standing spinning it with unimaginable speed , all of his previously made hurricane became sucked in as did all of the reiastu in the air. Cao look up at Ri and with all the strength he could must he fired a ball from his mouth at Ri.
An immense concentrated ball of reiatsu and wind formed in the centre of the Ri staff. Ri stopped the staff and fired the ball down toward Cao. Cao's bala hit into Ri's attack with no effect it was merely absorbed into it. The balled reached Cao's face and stopped inches away from his face.
"It ends now" Ri said as the ball exploded with unmeasurable power. It took the sand nearly ten minutes to fall back to the ground and as Ri look at around he knew the entire area of miles around was now void of life.
"What now?" Gáircas's voice suddenly asked as Ri started back toward the gate. Ri thought for moment on his answer then spoke in a soft tone.
"We go back , we live on , we fight on in her honour... in honour of Izlar"
Gaircas and Ri. - Spoiler:
: Ri awoke early in the morning some time before anyone else was awake even before the sun could be seen. He got dress silently and without making a sound started moving through the barrack. Little could be hear in the barracks but Ri could swear he heard ungodly snores coming form Kaiyos room.
He pin a small note on Kaiyo door say he was going to be done for a few days and would be back soon. He soon entered the kitchen of the barrack and prepared him self a small meal and packed a small lunch for later.
After eating he left the barrack and made his way quickly out of the Seireitei and into the vast forest of the soul society. He slowly started running and soon was in all out sprint through the forest.
Tree and bushes passed by as nothing more the green blurs as Ri passed them. After a few hours he found him self in an unknown area of the soul society. He saw a mountain range near him and diverted to there.
Ri stood at the base of the mountain and looked up toward the peak of the mountain. Ri smiled as he started running up the mountain jumping from ledge to ledge. The climb was long and dangerous but eventually found himself at the peak of the mountain.
The air was thin and the winds were fierce but Ri felt oddly comfortable at such high altitudes. He eat the small lunch he’d prepared but by now he figured it was dinner time and Kaiyo and the rest of his squad were probably wondering where he’d gone off too.
Ri drew his Zanpakuto and skill fully went through his stances with it. He moved as elegantly and powerful as the wind it self. The stabbed his Zanpakuto into ground and sat down beside it.
He placed his forehead at the guard of the sword and joined his hands around the blade. He sat there meditating; he slowly tuned out the outside world and slowed his heart beat. He focus on his own mind and his own body but this was not easy, he sat in the same position for hours concentrating more so then he’d ever done before.
He didn’t know what time it was or if the sun was still out his entire being was focus on his Zanpakuto but one thing kept drawing his focus, the fierce winds kept shaking his concentration.
The winds howled again nearly forcing Ri back and making him open his eyes but when he opened them he was not on the mountain top, he was in the sky.
Ri stood up slowly, all be could see around him was blue and clouds in the distance, looking down he saw what could be the ground. Suddenly panic over came him, his Zanpakuto wasn’t anywhere to be seen. Ri starting running around looking for it but nothing was in sight.
Then from seemingly no where a might roar came. Ri turned to see a dragon flying toward him, it was far in the distance but like large bird, as it came near and nearer it became apparent to Ri that it was something dragon and must be his Zanpakuto.
The dragon came near and near and Ri saw what it was , it had the form of the man but with wing , a tail and scales all over and in it’s hand was a large blade. The dragon-man landed near Ri and starred at him with it’s vibrant yellow eyes.
Ri kept a calm exterior but inside he was terrified. He thought of taking a fighting stance but instead he bowed before the creature.
“ I am….” Ri begun but was cut off shiftily by the creature.
“I know who you,” The creature said speaking in a firm womanly voice. “I know exactly who you are, I know your strength , weakness , fear and ambitions but do you know anything about me.”
“No but that is why I came here” Ri said in an apologetic tone. “I’ve come to ask you to tell me your name so we may fight….”
“No” The creature said cutting Ri off again and in the same firm , do as I say tone.
“I can’t accept that answer” Ri said as his heart started beating overtime.
“You don’t have. you’re not ready, no where close.” The creature said as it took a offensive stance with its blade. “Let me show you why”
Before Ri knew it a burning pain erupted from his back and then his chest then the creature foot was in his face kicking him. Ri was flung high into the air and landed hard. Ri struggled to raise but before he could the creature kicked him again sending him further away.
“Defend your self” The creature called as it charged toward Ri who’d only managed to get to his knee. The blade was trusted toward Ri’s head but the creature instead of ending Ri struck beside his eye ,only cutting his hair,
“See, when you can last against me in a fight then we can fight together,” The creature said as its odd blade vanished and Ri’s normal Zanpakuto appeared in his hand.
“I though I was ,,,, I though I was ready” Ri said as he held his chest and coughed brutally, “You thought wrong” The creature said putting his hand on Ri’s back and then suddenly all the pain was gone, Ri stood up confused but felt as if nothing happened.
“Thank you” Ri said amazed, he wasn’t sure what he’d do now other then train and get better. “Will you help me get stronger?”
“That I will do but it won’t be easy” The creature said it’s voice softer now.
“Nothing worth having is easy” Ri responded then in a blink of an eye he was back on top the mountain with his Zanpakuto right in front of him. He stood up and looked around him , he was defiantly back at the soul society and from the location of the sun he figured he’d been on top of the mountain for at least two or three days. He took a deep breath as he heard the wind whisper to him.
“Go now run and clear a path.”
With that Ri grabbed his Zanpakuto and in a flat out sprint started down the mountain. The trip down was fast and as he entered the forest he start cutting down branches and tree that were in his way. He leaped in one jump the top of the trees and changed direction.
By the time he arrived at Seireitei he’d cut a clear back from the Seireitei to the mountain through the dense forest. He found his way back the barrack and after cleaning out the kitchen of all food he collapse in the serenity of the barracks garden ----------------------
Ri sat on top of the mountain plateau high above everyone and everything else, it was here he first spoke to his Zanpakuto and it was here where he training day and night. Ri was sitting in complete silence with his Zanpakuto sitting on his lap.
Ri sat like a statue for some time before finally the world around him was dissolved and replaced by nothing but blue skies with snow white clouds. Ri stood up slowly, taking a halt of his Zanpakuto as he rose.
The familiar sound of wings flapping reached his ears and as he turned he caught sight of his Zanpakuto, a dragon looking man with large wings and covered in scales. Neither said a word for a moment but only starred at one another.
A strong wind started to howl and gather around the creatures, once the wind stop a sword with a crystal blue bade appeared in the creatures hand and both of them took their stance.
The wind blew calmly around the two as they prepared to fight, Ri had only determination in his eyes, no fear or doubt. He knew to learn his Zanpakuto’s name he had to success in winning the fight, losing wasn’t an option not for him.
Without warned the two launched at one another the met halfway between each other with both swords locked together. The wind changed from a calm serene breeze to a raging hurricane that surrounded the fight.
Ri took a step back and went for a counter slash but the creature blocked then countered but Ri managed to defend against the attack. Both fighters knew the other style perfectly and so gaining the advantage was going to be difficult.
Ri took a deep breath and leaped into the arm hold his Zanpakuto over his head and brought in down using the strength of both his arm. Ri’s Zanpakuto connect with the other but the force of the attack cause Ri to bounce off the creature Zanpakuto and with that opportune it Ri slid his blade behind the creatures and removed the blade from his way. Ri right hand turned to a fist and swung at the creature who turn it’s head to take the hit on side of it’s head.
Ri felt his punch connect and then flash stepped back out a few meters’ away from the creature but by the time he reappeared the creature was already charging toward him with it’s sword held over it’s shoulder.
Ri saw the swipe coming and when it did he leaped slightly and then kicked off the creature bade and made to swipe at the creatures neck but as Ri forced the sword closer to the creature neck he felt a scale covered fist of creature strike his cheek.
Ri body went limp for a moment well it rolled and bent through the air till hitting the invisible ground. Ri quickly recovered his stance in time to block the overhead swing form the creature who’d charged after him. The strength of the creature was immense as Ri was struggling to hold up against it in his block. Ri turned his sword vertical and pushed the creature sword to his left and with a clear open shouldered then creature then quickly removing his right hand form his sword hilt he struck the creature neck with a quick jab.
Promptly Ri back away from the creature, who started coughing and breathing difficultly but before Ri could think he felt two strikes rip across his back. Ri rolled, a foolish mistake as he had to roll over the two cut causing more pain.
The creature had faked the coughing and had flash stepped behind Ri to land the cleaver attack , its hard skin must of projected it again Ri’s jab.
Ri flash stepped but as he attacked the creature flash stepped as well and tried to perform a counter attack but Ri flash stepped again. The battle raged like this for some time, the only time both were visible was when one was attacking.
Finally both broke off and stood a good few meters away from one another, both were panting heavily but both wore the same small little smile. Ri ran forward with his blade, planning on a upward strike.
The creature blocked the attack but not the knee that was firmly planted in the creature’s chest. Ri brought the leg he kneed with down then with a small hop brought his left leg up and landed a kick on the creatures head sending the creature flying threw the air.
The creature flew through the air for a moment then using its wings stopped her self and retook her stance as Ri was already charging leading with his sword. Ri was just in range when the creature swung it’s sword aimed for Ri’s but Ri kicked forward and raising his legs so he was horizontal with his sword heading for the creature. The creature swipe connected with Ri’s stomach taking a slice out of it but Ri’s attack was still going and with no chance of a defense the creature could only watch as Ri’s blade pierced it’s chest through it’s lung and out it’s back.
The creature only smiled at Ri. No blood came from the wound nor did the creature appear to be in pain , the creature kept it’s smile as it turn a blight blue aura of light and flew away only to stop a good distance from Ri.
The blue light become grater in mass and started to spread out and take form. It a large blue dragon who’s entire body seem to be made of wind and was nearly transparent. It flew around for sometime then turned it’s head around to Ri.
“This is my true form.” The dragon said in elegant feminine voice then seemed to echo through out Ri’s inner world.
“I’m Ri O’Nocht” Ri said bowing before the great dragon as a sign of respect and friendship.
“My names is Gáircas, a dragon of the wind” Gáircas said speaking proudly of her name and race as she bowed her head at Ri. Ri blinking and found himself sitting on top the mountain plateau. He rose slowly grabbing a halt of his Zanpakuto as he stood up.
“Release me” Ri heard Gáircas whisper to him like a voice on the wind. Ri concentrated for a moment gather his mind and spirit.
“Ruler of the winds arise, Gáircas” Ri Shouted as an indescribable feeling over came him. His Zanpakuto changed from the normal Katana to a large bladed sword with Z shaped guard , the entire sword from hilt to tip was a pure sky blue color with a small sharp diamond at the both of the hilt.
“Now we fight side by side “Ri said as gripped the hilt tightly , the sensation he was feeling was incredible ,it was like the air around him and little more then an extension of his own body.
“Buail an Cas” Ri said as he swung his sword from right to left, a burst of wind was emitted from the blade and went straight cutting it’s way through the boulders and rocks on the plateau
Ri stood in awe of his Shikai and of its appearance and its power. Ri jabbed his sword straight and this time the wind was emitted form the every tip and instead of being a slashing effect it became a intense beam of wind strong enough to cut straight through rock and continue going. Ri swung his new sword around getting use to it’s surprising lightness and speed. As he swiped and swung the blade he noticed the wind seeming to blowing in the direction he swung , the wind seemed be obedient to the sword.
Once again, Ri found himself in his inner world. He had been there for sometime now though time had little meaning well he was in his inner world. He yet again had been training with Gáircas to increase his power as a Shinigami.
Ri flew through the air, his body limp and his torso revealed with his robes torn and blood stained. His body hit the ground as his mind clicked back into place and opened his eyes. He rolled on the ground as a laughed echoed throughout his world.
“Up you get “Gáircas ordered as she advanced on Ri , she had taken a humanoid form so to fight Ri but she still maintain her dragon scales and Wing that wrapped themselves around her and acted like armor
“I was just having a little nap,” Ri said as he staggered back to his feet. Both Ri and Gáircas were wielding the same, the beautiful sky blue bladed sword that’s movements were hard to gauge since Ri’s inner world took the form a lightly clouded sky.
“Come on try again concentrate” Gáircas said again as her wings unfolded themselves from around her body and spread themselves out into the sky. Effortlessly Gáircas took to the skies hovering in the sky a few meters from Ri.
“Right” Ri said as he focus his reiatsu , soon a blue aura of his reiatsu filled around him then slowly took form , the reiatsu became solid and took the form of magnificent wings identical to the wings of Gáircas.
Forming the wing was difficult and that was clearly reflected in Ri’s breathing and facial expression. Gáircas Smiled as she closed her wing around her as did Ri. Upon folding the wing around him, Ri manipulated the wings to extend over his arms as well as his torso.
“You must learn to fight with the armor without constantly concentrating on it” Gáircas said calmly as she moved slowly forward then upon finishing talking she busted forward with astounding speed.
Ri came forward with equal speed but he did move his sword in neither a defensive nor offensive but he held it out completely out of the way. Gáircas struck Ri’s chest first with a powerful strike then became striking rapidly.
Ri stood his grounding using a solidify reiatsu foothold so not to be sent flying back yet again. Each strike clashed off Ri’s armor, it cause some blunt pain but it prevented any really damaged and made cutting or piercing Ri’s body very difficult.
“Now fight back” Gáircas ordered as she leaped back a few steps. Ri smiled, he was sick of taking hit. He came forward, his sword held tightly at his side. In the same instant both Ri and Gáircas vanished from sight using shunpo to fight on another.
Ri was on the offensive rapidly striking every time he came close to Gáircas, most of his blow were absorbed by the armor but hurting Gáircas was not the goal of his training. The purpose of this was to be able to fight well maintaining control over his armor
“Lets try something new” Ri said as he shunpo’d away from Gáircas. He raised his wings from around his body and spread them out. He moved his wings slightly and flew a few meters into the air.
“Eite Rásúr!” Ri roared as his wing detached from him and by swiping his arm he sent both of the wing at Gáircas. Both wings separated and spun with incredible intensity as they flew for Gáircas.
The wing stuck into the chest of Gáircas who resisted for a moment then by spreading her wings casted off Ri’s wing, they flew back to Ri and reattached themselves. Gáircas smiled as she slowly approached Ri.
“I only showed up you that once, I’m impressed you learn it on your own.” Gáircas said as she spread her wing out to their fullest. “Have anything else to show me?”
“Just one more. cleite rásúr!” Ri said, roaring the last part as he raised his wings high into the air. Each feather in his wings became flooded with his reiatsu and shot out dozens of feathers at Gáircas each as sharp and deadly as any sword.
The legion of feather shot through the air bound for Gáircas who closed her wing around her. Each feather struck and stuck into her armor Gáircas smiled and laughed then vanished letting all of the feather fall then returned to Ri.
Gáircas returned to her true immense form. Her dragon body filled the sky as he flew around the lowered her head down to Ri,
“I’m impressed Ri you’ve learned a lot. Lets go have some fun” Gáircas Said as Ri’s world faded as he found himself back in his room with his Zanpakuto across his lap. Smiling Ri stood up and took hold of his Zanpakuto .
“Thank you Gaircas”
Ri slowly stood as blood trickled down from his head over his face then dripped off his chin, his sight came in and out of focus and could only just make out Gáircas slowly advancing on him. He held his sword in his right arm as his left and dominate hand was covered in cuts and blood.
Gáircas walked forward, she had no visible cut nor did she show any sign she'd been fighting she wasn't even out of breath. She held the bright sky blue blade that was her released states and that was difficult to follow with Ri's inner world being a bright blue sky is very direction.
“Focus Ri, you've a lot of potential you just have to release it” Gáircas said speaking in a calm caring tone. She raised her blade as a strong with blew throughout Ri's inner world , Ri smiled as he raised his blade as the winds grew fiercer and fiercer
“Don't hold back just let it go” Gáircas said as she and Ri starred at one another as Ri let his pressure fill his world creating gale force winds that circled around Ri and Gáircas. The entire hurricane was created by Ri's pressure but he didn't feel drain in fact felt the exact opposite, he felt re-energized.
“There hold it absorb the energy” Gáircas said , coaching Ri as he controlled the hurricane and it's effects. Thought Gáircas was unaffected most being would be luck to be able to breath if they were anywhere near the hurried.
Gáircas smiled then suddenly she rush at Ri ,who only just managed to block the attack. The two starred at each other from across their blade, both had the same star and smile on their faces. Ri could feel more and more energy flow into his body.
“You have to learn to fight well controlling the wind, it's good training for latter” Gáircas said as she broke off then shunpo'd behind Ri. She came in fast and low , Ri jumped over her swipe and slashed across her back as she passed beneath him.
“Good” Gáircas said as she stood up and felt the cut on her back, smiled she rushed against at Ri and launchings into a barrage of attacks. Ri blocked the first strike but the next twenty cut across his chest then with a final blow she struck hard and sent him flying through the sky.
Not staying down long Ri stood up and raised his hand and absorbed all the reiatsu the winds had gathered for him, his cut stopped bleed and his breathing returned to a normal steady pace. Taking on step forward Ri shunpo'd in front of Gáircas but as she swiped he shunpo'd again to her left and cut a gash across her left side.
Not stopping his offensive Ri moved again to Gáircas other side and as he moved he dragged his blade across her back cutting across the previous cut then with a feat of strength he force his blade through Gáircas's side and into her lung but before any blood was spilled Gáircas returned to her true magnificent form
“Well done Ri, you've become very strong in a short amount of time, I'm proud to fight with you” Gáircas said as the winds subsided and Ri's inner world became calm and peaceful once more but Ri didn't enjoy this long as when he next blink he found himself back in his room in the squads Barracks.
Thought Ri was sitting in a relaxed position his mind and heart were beating faster then he'd even known then too. He slowly rose as the adrenaline calmed in his system , he walked to the window and opening it, letting in a breath of air. Ri felt brilliant , like he could just blow away with the wind.
It was shortly after this Ri was made Captain of squad thirteen an honor, beyond that he could imagine. Ri now as squad thirteens Captain leads the men and women of the squad, his family.

- Spoiler:
Call out phrase: "Ruler of the winds arise! Gáircas” Description of released form: Large bladed sword with Z shaped guard , the entire sword from hilt to tip was a pure sky blue color with a small sharp diamond at the both of the hilt. The sword it self is weightless to Ri being it's only an extension of his soul. He is highly skill with this blade and it not to be underestimated Ability 1: Buile an Cas (Fury of wind) Capable of manipulating the wind and Reiatsu around the sword to create incredible force of wind capable to cutting men in two. The attack is near impossible to see as it is made of air but can be sensed to some extent if an individual has great skill in such area. The strenght of the attack depend on how much Ri puts into it, the attack could cut mountains down or have diffuclty cutting a hair depending on Ri's use of it. Shikai ability #2: Rásúr Ri sprouts magnification wings that can be folded around him to form a strong plate of armour around Ri’s torso and arm. This armour is difficult to break through but is very light to wear. The wings can be used for offensive means in two ways. First being Eite Rásúr where the wings launch at the target and spin at high speeds that cut through the air making the attack deadly fast should the wings survive they will reattach to Ri. The second is cleite rásúr this is where the feather fly from the wings of Ri and launch themselves at the target , the feather cut through the air again making them very fast and deadly. Wings Image Ability 3# Ri allows his Reiatsu to flow without restraint creating a hurricane around him, a person must be of high spirit pressure just to survive the intense pressure Ri emits within this hurricane. The gale force winds collect vast amount of reiatsu and replenishes Ri's. In place such as the Soul society and Hueco Mundo Ri can keep the winds blowing indefinably due to the high amount and quality of reiatsu however this is not the case in the living world.

Ability 1: Ri's control over the wind become immense, he's capable of subduing twisters and hurricane with the slightest effort and he is capable of starting fierce storms or send the power of a strong twister in a short burst toward his enemy. His Buail an Cas attack become increasing powerful due to this.Along with that Ri's movements and strikes are increased incredible by using the winds increase their speed he can also slow down others to a degree by using the winds against them.
Ability 2: Ri spins his staff in his hands with great speed, in the centre of this spin wind and reiatsu gather to form a super-concentrated destructive force , this force grows stronger the more it's spun and when Ri stops the spin its fired, the destructive force takes the form of a ball that will adsorb any attacks weak then it. and will explode with immense power.

History/Background: Earth Ri grew up in a lovely family on Earth and enjoyed his childhood. He spent his young life carefree never worrying about another. When he hit adolescence he started hearing noises nobody else could and soon he could see spirits. At first he denied them eventually he accepted they were really but ignored them all the same When he was 18 he was walking home from work on day and heard screams from an ally. without hesitating Ri ran into the dark and found a group of thugs sounding a young lady. In an act of foolish bravery Ri ran into the group swing. He stayed conscious enough to watch the lady run away then he pasted out. He awoke a while late and to his admonishment wasn't hurt, not even a bruise A few moments later the young lady returned with a police officer and described what happened. Ri tried to call to them but they could he him then when the lady point toward a dark corner is when Ri saw him self lying in a stoop covered in blood. He looked back to the women, she was it tears. Her dress the ripped and he top was hanging off, the police man had given her his jacket to keep warm but the thought of what might of happened if Ri hadn't help made dying worth it then living knowing he could of stopped it. He wandered for sometime trying to figure out what to do. He attended his funeral and tried to comfort his family which he liked to think help them. His family was proud of him he was raised to respect life and dieing to save a stranger made his family very proud. Eventually a man dressed in black robe came for Ri, at first Ri refused to pass over but after a length talk with the man Ri decided to passover and so he entered the Soul society Soul Society Ri found life in the Soul Society harder then he thought it would be but he survived but only barely. He wondered thorugh the districts never staying in one place to long. He survived by working in bar but after a few years in the Society his memory of life fade and soon all he knew was the Soul Society. He learned the ways of the society and became highly interest in Shinigami, he was told often by the one he came across that he had a wealth of spirit pressure inside him. Ri always found himself hungry a trait only those with spiritual pressure had in the soul society. After some thought Ri decided to attend the Shinigami Academy. At the academy he didn't have many friends at first, he was to busy making sure he was top of the class but after a few months there and after establishing he was the best in year bar none he soon developed a number of friends.

He spent most his time trying to communicate with his Zanpakuto and sparring anyone who came across his path, Captains included.
