| Subject: Remington Gravelle 2.6 (The new Hollow) Sun Aug 26, 2012 11:42 pm | |
| Hollow TemplateName: Remington Gravelle, Stage 1 Hollow Moniker; Mantis or Burning Scythe bug Age: 64, 21 years as a human, 43 as a Shinigami, 1 day as a Hollow. Gender: Male, though in this state, gender can be questioned Race: Canadian Birthplace: Canada Height: 5’11” as a human, 16’3” As a Hollow Weight: 150 Lbs. as a human, 280 Lbs. as a Hollow Appearance: Stage 1 Appearance: - Appearance:
This monstrous Mantis-Arachnid hybrid is a strange creature, featuring four scythe-ended legs attached to two thighs, and a dessicated humanoid torso, with two upper arms that split into two forearms ended with two long scything blades. Its head is wide and nearly flat, being triangular and with a raised portion in the shape of the kanji of Fire. The eyes of the creature are on the sides of the mask. Typically, the creature keeps its front arms together to form one large blade, and strides around on its four long legs. It's scything blades are each 4' in length each, adding to its height and menace. The joints on its legs are rather limber too, giving it unrestrained limits on its movements and positions. - old:
The creature’s appearance is perhaps best described by its name: Mantis-like. To begin, the creature has six appendages, a head, and large, scythe-like claws or talons ending each of its appendages. The creature’s torso is humanoid, appearing much like the chest cage and hips, but appearing quite desiccated, and without a gut. The legs of the creature are somewhat strange, being composed of large, muscular thighs, which extend from the hips and end at a forked junction, in which the lower leg is divided into two parts, which extend and connect to a long stretch of bone, which connects to a scythe-like toe. The legs are each parted on the sides, with the toes spread apart to maintain its balance. The legs are otherwise curled up and positioned forwards to allow for a wider base to allow for better balance. Extending from the shoulders of the creature are arms, which have bisected forearms that are of two parts; these arms are normally kept close together, and appear much like one limb, though when they spread apart, serrated teeth line the insides for when they close together again, acting like a macabre pair of scissors. The creature’s hands are small on each, and its fingers are single scythes, measuring 4’, a full foot longer than its toes. The scythes of each hand are kept close together, preserving the idea that each arm is only a single limb, with a single blade; this illusion is broken if the blades and arms part, revealing the gruesome truth, that the creature has two independent blades per arm, for a total of four blades on the front. Another further illusion, is how the creature intertwines its arms before its chest, giving the appearance of one strong arm ended in a sickle-blade before its chest and head. As for the beast’s head, it is wide and triangular, featuring eyes on the sides of its mask, and on the front as well, it also has a raised portion of its mask, that makes it appear as if it has a dashed upside down ‘Y’ on its face. The symbol appears much like the kanji for fire. Personality: With the mental battle lost, Ira and the Bean Sidhe won out over the Soul Reaper, and his mind was lost. The primal ID and Negative Super Ego began to assimilate the Ego, or at least, what parts they could of it. What remained of him, refused to yield, refused to accept that the ID and Super Ego had won out, and locked itself deep down. The primitive creature shows no interest in anything but its next meal, and with the Negative Super Ego to look over it, acts in its own survival and desire. It expresses no remorse, no regret, no eagerness to inflict harm, nor shy from a meal. And only when He resurfaces from the mindlessness of it all and accepts his actions and his decisions, will he become truly ‘whole’ once again. Because even though he knows what his actions are, he refuses to realize that they are his own, and blames them upon this other ego he has created, not desiring to accept that he truly is as bloodthirsty as he really is. The worse his actions, the more he retreats. He cannot accept what is real, that he is a monster, has always been a monster, and will continue to be a monster. Everything he does, he does knowingly, but refuses to accept, blaming it on his uncontrolled ID, which is in fact himself, delighting in the release of his care for the world. And perhaps when he acknowledges his feelings, his emotions, and stops rationalizing the world, will he begin to grow as a person once again. But for now, he acts on instinct, and hates himself for it so much that the world he sees has become so rooted in his own imagination that there is nothing that he can do. His success in slaying the wolf was the last link that held him to being a Soul Reaper. In order to regain his humanity, he must navigate his way through the inner world, reclaim his Positive Super Ego, and unite his fractured mind into one complete being. Until then, he is the beast, hungering for its next meal, and fierce for its survival. Stats:Spirit Power: 25 Speed: 20 Technique: 5 Fighting Skill: 10 Hollow Abilities Techniques/Abilities:Ability 1: Enduring Body – With a magma-like slime for blood, and a belly full of fire, he is somewhat durable to some several kinds of attacks, and has some interesting perks to himself. Firstly, the wounds he inflicts and is inflicted cauterize almost instantly. Fire and Ice attacks requier a higher degree to actually harm him, and environments of extreme temperatures are less effective at subduing him. Ability 2: Rubber Bones – His bones are somewhat elastic, allowing for him to grow or shrink his appearance to either half of its size, or double its size. Depending upon how he adjusts his size, his speed and fighting skills are affected. The larger he makes himself, the slower he gets and the harder blows he throws, but if he shrinks himself, he moves faster, though his attacks are much weaker. At double his size, his speed is halfed, and his fighting skill increases by a quarter of its power, however, at half his size, his speed increases by a quarter of its power, and his fighting skill is halved. *200% size would be, at this point, 10 Speed and 12.5 Fighting power (Rounded down to 12), but at 50% size he would have 25 Speed and 5 Fighting power. at sizes 75% and 150%, his speed and fighting skills are reduced by 25%, because of stress imposed between shifting states. Ability 3: Breathe Heat – His breath, in a normal state, is a very hot vapour, and can be altered to spew flames, or lava (I'd say magma, but once it's out of him, it's technically lava). In the event that he chooses to spew lava at his foes, it only travels a short distance before hardening into a rocky substance. * when health is lower than 25% of its maximum value, only the lava hocking can be used. at 50%, fire breathing is lost. - old:
Ability 1: Enduring Body – His body temperature is abnormally high, giving his attacks a searing edge, and making him capable of enduring certain kinds of attacks. On the offensive side, his slicing blows cauterize for minimal bleeding of his foes, allowing enemies to endure more, longer. On the defensive side, he is almost immune to burning and freezing attacks, as well as heat or energy-based projectiles. He is capable of surviving in frigid environments, as well as incredibly hot environments.
Ability 2: Rubber Bone – His bone density is capable of being realigned and adjusted, to allow for increased reach or gait. His normal reach is 6’11”, though this can easily be doubled or tripled, while his gait is easily 8’ astride, and his legs can double their own length to allow for him increase this to 14’ strides. This ability comes at a downside however, as the more he stretches himself, the slower he becomes. The greatest point of stretching which gives him a full height of 28’4”, a reach of 20’9”, and a gait of 14’, as well as a neck length of 3’7”, though his mobility is slowed incredibly.
Ability 3: Locked – This ability is unavailable at the moment. Consume more souls to unlock this ability! History: Once, he was human, broken, fractured, and fiercely logical. The world could be categorized and ordered. Until his death by a random act; struck by lightning during a storm, he died, and was then sent to the Soul Society by Konso, and his superior vitality developed itself there, emerging as a Soul Reaper. There, he lived painfully aware that he was not able to fit in properly, and spent forty-three years as a student at the academy. His inability to work cohesively in this world was perhaps due to the loss of all he knew and understood. As much as he tried to rationalize this world, he found he couldn’t and slowly began to lose control of his ID. But to know more about this, one would have to push back further, to understand the beginning of his issues. The history of his line is dark, as, despite how fantastical the story is, he was born to a cursed line. The exact details were unknown, but those born in his line, both before and after, were born with heavy, dark souls, and often turned into Hollows soon after death, if not the moments before. Some lucky few, managed to keep the darkness at bay during their lives, and even during their deaths, and avoided the problem altogether. And his soul was exceptionally dark, as he was never discovered as having the problems he had. His childhood and much of his early life was miserable, contending with the terrors of his own form of the curse, a Bean Sidhe, as he thought of it, an omen of ill fortune who plagued him to the ends. Incapable of understanding what was going on, when he succumbed to his urges, he blamed a self-created persona, which he identified as Ira, who was in fact his ID. To balance the need of his urges, he then fabricated a girl, Afe, to counter his desires. He labelled them as souls within himself, refusing to accept that either was in fact himself. He came to give up any decision in life, instead depending upon Afe’s judgement, or the judgement of others. Ira was the devil on his shoulder, and Afe the angel. But many a time, he felt that Afe was as much the devil as Ira was. But he didn’t understand that the demon who plagued him, was the one that manipulated either, and was as much a Super Ego as Afe was. But again, he eventually died, and became a problem, he was sent to the Soul Society, and developed a Zanpakto Spirit within himself, that manifested as the innate powers of the Curse, and the will of Afe. Though he had been given a great gift to change himself, he could not handle the new pressures thrust upon himself and gradually began to erode away. He rebelled, and became a hated person, eventually killing one Soul Reaper by accident, then being locked away in the Maggot’s Nest. Maggot’s Nest was perhaps the turning point. He snapped and lost his mind, devolving into a primitive beast where he killed fellow prisoners and even a few guards, then afterwards created a riot and was mortally wounded in the fights that ensued. Having finally reached the last point in his own mental world, he discovered the source of his Shinigami powers, and rather than accept it and return to sanity he killed it and became a Hollow. At one point, all he desired, was to become a Soul Reaper so that he could return to the world of the living and visit his wife. Now, however, he has no desire to seek out his family and reunite with them. Now he hungers…for the souls of everyone.

| While I applaud your attention to detail, it's abit perplexing the method you use to describe the creature in question. The mantis I envisioned at the first
- Spoiler:
Quickly pinwheeled into something so un-mantis like. Scythe like blades, hands, toes, bisecting, separating, etc. Overly complex I'd say. Harder for others to envision which might prove a problem for later.
As for the powers pretty much he's hot/scalding to the touch. Hot like a pot out of the oven or fresh off the fire. That being said you'll be resistant to heat not full on immunities as stated. DM and Junk sport their hearty fire resistances since they full on fire/flame wielders. If you can't survive the frigid environment cold does have an effect on ya, just takes more cold than normal. They're the same way :p. Stretching thing is possible, but being large already seems almost moot. Your call. | |

| There, got my arse in gear, found my SD card, uploaded pics from sketchbook. It's kind of rough, but it's an appearance of him. I like the one you put up though, might take that as an adjuchas for later.
As for Stretching, I'd like to keep that, it'll come in handy for later. And being large doesn't mean I'm not large enough.
Still not sure about the third ability. Firebreathing seems so overrated, but it's what I've been thinking of ATM, either that or frost breath, which seems really strange considering his body temperature, though it could be a fire/ice sort of thing, breathing flames so hot they're cold. | |

Depending upon how he adjusts his size, his speed is affected. The larger he makes himself, the slower he gets, to the point where he is only able to move at half of his speed. If he shrinks himself, the same applies. This is due to the stress put upon his body in both cases.
That last part. So if he shrinks he gains twice his speed or he gets the same half speed cut? | |

| Minor Adjustments made. Hope that fixes some of the problems?
And I'll be putting status updates when in combat, during RPs with him. | |
