Personality:||Serious & Laid Back||
Talbot is known to both be an overly serious person, as well as a laid back and lazy person. These swift changes in personality tend to occur during battle, Talbot changes from his laid back lazy self into a serious killing machine. Normally Talbot enjoys spending his spare time either training, or just lazing around resting somewhere, or even just relaxing with the squad and chowing down. His more serious side that appears during battle does not joke around, once a battle has begun Talbot only knows how to give it his all and prove he is stringer than his opponent. Because of this Talbot learns and grows much faster during real battle than during training.
||Sense of Humor||
Although a laid back person, Talbot is rarely seen laughing, or even smiling for that matter. There have only been a few rare occasion's that have caused Talbot to laugh, or even smile. It has been many years since anyone has seen the man even smirk at a joke or anything of the like.
||Will to Grow Stronger||
Talbot does not know how to give up, all he knows is that in order to grow stronger, he must continue to fight stronger opponents. Because of this training on his own has become nearly useless, Talbot's mind has adapted to learn and grow quickly through battle. The urge to grow stronger pushes Talbot to try harder and harder when faced with a stronger opponent, eventually leading to him growing to the point of overcoming said opponent.
||Sense of Hospitality||
Talbot never shuns away people who wish to spend time with him, nor does he shun a guest from his home. Essentially Talbot has come to hate being alone, and because of this always welcomes company, or some form of companionship.
||Random Causes of Battle||
When it comes to starting a fight, Talbot is known to be 'random' about it. Usually picking out someone who seems near his strength(usually a bit stronger) and just lashing out at them, he does this mainly to test his opponents, for if they cannot react to a random outburst then why take the time to fight them.
||Selective in Completing Tasks||
Unless Talbot finds a mission worth his time, or interesting in some aspect(usually a chance to get stronger) he tends to be lazier about the mission, caring less about when it will get done and such. There are even times where Talbot will outright decline a mission due to a lack of interest in it.
Sealed Zanpakuto:- example:
Talbot's zanpakuto is larger than most, well actually nearly all sealed zanpakuto. It is an ornately decorated and very long blade with a total length of 5'6" or 66 inches. On the hilt of this blade is a crossguard, though the bars between the blade and the hilt are much longer than average. The blade itself is pitch-black with a very strong sheen, and its shape is similar to the German "Großes Messer", a single-edged long sword with a slight curve at the end of the blade. Overall, this zanpakuto looks like a large black cross. Talbot wears his zanpakuto on his back, with the handle above his right shoulder.

History: Human Life: Talbot lived a good life as a human, he was nearly done high school, and was well on his way to getting life started for real. Up until now he had been using all his time with school, his part-time job, and whatever martial arts classes he could get in. This is why Talbot would be found by a shinigami with a shocked, and anxious look on his face upon his death. Talbot had never expected to trip during on of his MMA classes and hit the wall hard, the result was his neck bending in an awkward angle killing him. It took Talbot all of 5 minutes to realize he was now standing outside of his own body, a chain hanging from his chest, and he was 'still' in his normal clothes. As he finally got over the fact he was dead a shinigami appeared, noting that Talbot possessed a dormant source of reiryoku, before Konso'ing Talbot and sending him too Soul Society.
Life as a Soul: For the first ten long years in Soul Society Talbot had to adjust to not only a new life, but only knowing his name upon his arrival. Of course Talbot would end up lucky, and meet some older spirits willing to take him in, and teach him about Soul Society. In the end of his first ten years, Talbot would come to know that he possessed reiryoku/ or reiatsu, he knew this because unlike the spirits he had lived with he grew hungry daily. Talbolt would also make many friends in the area, before shinigami would be sent out into Rukongai to find potential Shinigami. The last day Talbot would spend within Rukongai would end up also being his 29th 'birthday' and the day marking the end of his 10th year in Soul Society. It would be a warm sunny cloudless day when Talbot would be returning home with his monthly supply of food, upon entering his home he would be greeted by the two elderly souls who took him in as well as two un-seated shinigami. That day Talbot's afterlife would change forever.
Role Playing Sample: Talbot entered his home, noting the voices he could hear in the back.
Looks like some guests.. Talbot would think to himself as he set his food supply for the month on a counter to his right. With a light sigh Talbot would take an apple from the supply and bite into it heading into the back room. Upon entering the room Talbot would see the elderly man and woman who had taken him in these past 10 years, as well as two men in black clothing with swords at their hips. The two men turned to Talbot and spoke to him, their voices soothing, "You must be Talbot, we're a couple shinigami who were sent out into Rukongai to look for potential students." The shinigami pasued for a moment before his partner spoke up, "As you must notice by our being here, we would like you to attend the Shinigami Academy, this is so that you do not eventually become a danger to the souls in Rukongai." Those words leaving the mans lips left Talbot with a cold chill running up his spin, a bead of sweat dripped down the side of his head as he inhaled sharply before speaking.
"What do you mean I can become a danger!?!" Talbot's voice held a dead serious tone as his icy blue eyes glared at the shinigami who seemed to have trouble finding his voice. "All we mean sir, is that if you remain here and your reiatsu grows stronger, you may harm others without meaning too, you may even attract hollow to the Rukongai." The two shinigami then rose from their seats, saying they would wait outside while Talbot took a few moments to think things over.
Talbot knew that it was rare for hollow to manage to enter Soul Society, but that was not what worried him, the fact that he may one day loose control is what worried him.
What if I did become too strong for my own good... Talbot thought to himself before turning to leave,
"I'm sorry, those shinigami are right, I must go with them. Thank you... for everything." The last words left his lips as he exited his home, in order to leave to his new home.
