Personality: Koza is a quiet, menacing figure. She is always there, but never actually really
there. By this I mean that she enjoys hovering behind a crowd or gathering, lurking in the shadows and staring at all of them. She has been known to watch battles closely from the shadows, and swoop in to feed upon the loser. Koza is exactly like what one would expect her to be if they knew the nature of her ressurecion. She is vicious, and preys on the weak. She will hardly do her own fighting, choosing to use others as pawns and just reap the benefits for herself later. She is often called "a leach" or a "vulture", which is ironically exactly what she is. Koza has no real people skills, or sense of humor, mainly because she never communicates with anyone. When she does have to talk to someone she uses short sentences, direct answers, and body language that lets them know they are not welcome in her presence.
Background/RP SampleBackground:Koza woke up as a baby in the Rukongai. She was in the 15th district, which wasn't bad for children. She had a caring psuedo-family. However, Reikon would never approach her father, nor would she every approach her brother. She clung to her mother, and hid behind her apron whenever the other two were in the area. No one knew why this was but Koza, and no one asked out of respect. One day, at the visible age of nine, she passed out from hunger. The mother had been a cook in the living world, but hadn't cooked for a hundred or so years. She quickly gathered what she could and prepared a meal for the daughter. When Koza awoke to food she also noticed a man in a black kimono sitting at the table. The man was nice, but Reikon still avoided eye contact. He was apparently a part of the family she had gathered before running off to the soul society. He came home on vacation as soon as he had heard about how his new sister had developed powers.
Koza spent a week alone with this man, training with him to use her powers in the form of 'kidou'. This form of magic was interesting to her, and she really liked it. She began to get closer to the shinigami, and by the seventh day almost made eye contact with him. However, her fear of men was overpowering and he would leave without so much as a good bye from her. She would spend the rest of her days in district 15 training herself and eating what she could. At the visual age of thirteen she would join the shinigami academy. Koza jumped in as an advanced student, and even skipped second year. She would enter the Soul Society in the 13th division.
After only one hundred or so years she became a lieutenant, and was trained by her captain. The captain was the first man that Koza had accepted in her life, and was the only one she had been able to comfortably be around. He taught her to release her shikai, to perfect her kidou, and even to activate her Bankai. A great teacher and a great captain, he became a role model to Koza. Koza led her division in many a hollow-purging mission, even though that was technically not the duty of her squad. She convinced the captains that it was good for the division, building teamwork and trust. She built a five-woman group of shinigami out of the top five seats, all woman that she could trust as well as ones that her taichou could trust. She wouldn't find out what happened to them later on in life, as she would become a captain.
Her Taichou felt it was time for her to grow further than she could as his vice, so he put in a good word for her with the other captains. As the sixth captain had recently died of an illness, she was examined and later brought into the sixth division as their new captain. The first thing she would do is kick out her lazy lieutenant and replace him with someone more fitting. Her vice was a woman who looked only a bit younger than herself, but in reality was much younger by age. One day, during combat with a menos level hollow, Koza's zanpakuto would not activate. Because of this, Koza nearly died that day. She had survived and destroyed the hollow, but it had completely wiped her out. She would awake wrapped in bandages around her torso in the 4th division headquarters. Koza would then retire from her rank, taking several hundred years in the mountains far from the soul society to talk with her blade and make sure that that never happened again. When she returned she entered the soul society once again she would be a retired shinigami who joined the Court of Pure Souls. For a thousand years she lived with the stingy old people who somehow had aged way beyond what she could.
Feeling the need to be alone for once, she would sneak out of the Court in the middle of the night. Koza found the place where her older brother had trained her so many years ago, and sat down to watch the stars. She was on a grassy field in the middle of a forest outside her old home in district 15. There she would lay and stare at the stars. Suddenly, a man entered from the shadows. He offered her not only the power to control herself and her zanpakuto, but the power to overcome all of the fear she harbored. Desperately wanting to live without the fear she had, she accepted and followed the man. He would suddenly drop a small orb, the orb releasing a gas. With one last curse and a cough, she would fall unconscious.
Koza woke up on a table similar to the ones found in hospitals. She was stark naked, and covered in tubes and the like as if she had just been operated one and was given the tubes to supplement every bodily liquid that she normally produced. She would later find out that most of the tubes were medication, mainly to weaken her so that she couldn't escape. However, in her desperation she released a massive wave of spiritual pressure she had not known before. The spiritual pressure allowed her to move fast and strong enough to escape from the underground laboratory where she had been experimented on. Her ebony hair would fall over her exposed breasts, covering them as she fled form the forest beside karakura town like a wild one, stark naked except for a bestial mask upon her face. Luckily, no one could see her. When she was able to calm down, the mask disappeared. She was able to stalk a shinigami long enough to follow him to the soul society. There she would sneak into the department of research and development to steal her gigai back. The gigai thankfully had clothes on it, so when she returned to karakura she relatively fit in.
Koza was found by a man who led the vaizard race at the time. That man took her in and helped her to master her inner hollow, allowing her to use her mask proficiently. Koza followed the vaizard for a long time without joining the elites because she feared having that much free will on how much power she could release. As a regular vaizard she could hide most of the power she held. However, when a new leader took charge, she would join the ranks of the elites. Still wary of her own strength, Koza remained in the lower courts of the vaizards, taking orders and giving out orders, but never truly revealing her strength.
However, one day, her inner hollow became too much for her. It consumed her, as she had never taken full control over it, and took over her body. Already having incredible strength for a hollow, it returned to Hueco Mundo and began to feed on the higher-level Hollows. When Koza discovered that becoming an Arrancar and Espada would grant her power and authority, she quickly went about breaking her mask. Becoming an arrancar, she joined the ranks and worked on developing and refining her Arrancar abilities. When she was successfully in full control of her power, she took her rightful spot amongst the Espada.
RP Sample: The sky was blue, the clouds, white, the world placid and pristine. It seemed as if nothing could possibly go wrong on such a day, that even Lady Fate herself could not be that cruel; and so the day was an all around good one for the masses. Sitting in the massive, achromatic, tower of the first division, was the newest leader of the massive army known as soul reapers. The spirit guardians, armed with weapons more powerful than any human technology, ran about beneath his window, going about their duties that were required to keep both worlds peaceful. To be more accurate, it wasn't "both worlds" they were keeping peaceful. It was two out of five known worlds that they were keeping peaceful. These two worlds were known as the Soul Society and Living World, and both were kept together under the authority of this one man. The man who was now pondering these exact same thoughts, as he sat in his massive, palatial, throne-like chair with his haori wrapped around his shoulders and his katana in his hands. The tip of the katana was stabbing into the carpet at his feet, the blade facing out toward the door on the opposite end of the long, thing, corridor of a room. The aqua-blue, silk-wrapped, handle was held to the blade by a crescent moon-shaped cross guard. Both of the man's slim, pale, soft hands rested upon the golden pommel of the katana. His chin rested upon his hands, and indirectly upon his blade. It seemed fitting that he would use the sword to support him both in combat and out of it, though many would argue that a weapon as precious as a zanpakuto shouldn't be used so carelessly.
The cold brown eyes the Captain Commander gazed out of the hole in the wall that served as a window. A butterfly fluttered past, black and purple in color with a morbid design. He knew these butterflies all too well, and he also knew what message they would be carrying. As soon as the butterfly found the respective thirteen captains, on Kidou Corps Commander, they would relay the following message:
Greetings, my Captains and fellow Commander. This is your new Captain Commander of the Soul Society speaking, I have an urgent message. As we do not know each other, and I have yet to gauge your competence, I am requesting that all fourteen of you come to the Captain's Meeting Hall above the First Division Barracks and participate in this meeting I am holding. Any Captain that fails to appear himself, or send a representative with one hell of a good reason for not showing, will be stripped of his rank and instantly replaced. I jest not, do not try my patience. I look forward to conversing with all of you, enjoy this beautiful day, as long as you are enjoying it on the way to the Meeting Hall.At the thought of this message, the Captain's cold, emotionless face broke out into an even more chilling smile. He had a feeling that at least one Captain would have an issue with him being in command, whether this showed through blunt insubordination or silent plotting, Xuntaii knew he would catch it. He had an eye for traitors and schemers, something he was afraid not many Captain Commanders before him had been graced with. Xuntaii sighed, removing his chin from the back of his hands, leaning back in his chair as he snapped his fingers. Suddenly, a figure flickered into the room. He was dressed completely in black robes, with a simple katana at his waist wrapped in a navy blue fabric. His hair was long, pulled into a messy ponytail on top of his head. He bowed instantly, awaiting orders.
"Make sure you let any and all Captains in as soon as they show up, I don't want to be left waiting. Let no one else in unless they have proof that they are to represent their captain." He said in a cold, authoritative voice. The shinigami instantly called out his understanding, disappearing in a flash. The shinigami had slammed the door on the way out in his hurry, and the annoying banging noise echoed throughout the room. Xuntaii cringed at this sound, it was irritating when people slammed doors, he had always hated that.
Xuntaii, the newest of the Captain Commanders, looked deceivingly young. He looked to only be in his twenties, when in actuality, he was around five-hundred and fifteen times older than that. His hair was kept messy, black in color, and hanging about his his face and around the nape of his neck. The bangs would occasionally be pushed to the top of his head if he were working or just didn't want them in the way. The eyes that rested in his head were almond shapes, small, and a rich brown color. His nose was slim and pointed, his face heart-shaped. Xuntaii's lips were thin and colorless, currently pulled down into an aggravated frown. His skin was an almost ghostly pale, seeming to be unmolested by acne or scars. He dressed in an odd fashion, with a tunic that was mainly black, but trimmed in scarlet. This tunic's color was a V-neck, coming down to his first rib and showing his collar bone. He had no hair or scars upon his chest either. At his waist was a length of cloth that was teased and torn at the ends, seeming to be the remains of an old cloak or cape. On his right arm was a massive sleeve that held tightly onto his arm just above the elbow, but fanned out to be wide open at the hand. Upon this sleeve was a crescent moon. Underneath the sleeve was a plating over his arm, protected him from blades or other similar assaults. His pants were baggy, a pale blue in color, and tucked into the knee-high black boots that he wore.
There in that room he waited for the arrival of his captains, playing absent-mindedly with the length of black ribbon that was tied to his upper left arm. The ribbon twisted around his bony, twisted fingers; occasionally it would slip between them and fall upon his lap. When this happened Xuntaii was stare at his empty hand blankly, as if he didn't notice the thing he had been playing with was gone. After a few seconds of staring, he would turn his attention to the fallen ribbon, pick it up, and restart the process.
Innate Ability[All hollows come with innate abilities, what’s yours? I.e. look at Nel's Cero Doble, that's an innate ability. A closer look at innate ability is something that is actively passive throughout your character or activated by the character itself.OPTIONAL and will be closely monitored.]
Name: Gluttony
Description: Koza consumes reiatsu. She can do this through dead corpses, the area around her, or even low-level kido attacks. She does this on a level above what others of her kind or even the bounts can do. Much like Nel's Cero Doble, she can consume an attack and use it to fuel her own attacks, though she can't send someone's attack right back at them. By absorbing other's reiatsu Koza grows in power, and if she consumes another's body, she can even change her reiatsu to feel like that corpse's race. ((Example: If she ate Ryusaki she could form then on make her reiatsu feel like a shinigami's))

Resurreccion Special Ability: While in this form Koza can access a dimension that is her own. She can only create voids about the size of a basketball, meaning that she can't use these voids to travel, but she can use them to absorb certain attacks and reflect them. However, she can only have three voids open at a time, and these voids couldn't absorb Ban Kai, or level 70 and above, Kido-based attacks. The voids can only absorb three attacks each, and after their three attacks it takes three posts to create a new one.
TechniquesName: La caza para la alimentación - Hunting for Food
State: Ress
Description: From the voids that are formed using this technique, Chains will shoot out. It is presumed that these chains are fed into the dimension before combat. The chains will wrap around the opponent, tying their arms and legs up. The chains can only be broken by a ban kai level attack or at least three shikai level attacks.
Duration and/or cooldown: 5 posts/8 posts
Name: Inspirado por el hambre - Inspired by Starvation
State: Ress
Description: This technique must be used after Koza consumes an attack. Using this energy to fuel her power, she can create extra voids. The voids follow the same rules as the original voids, this just lets her create up to three more. Basically, 1-20 kidou= 1 more voids, 21-50 or Shikai level= 2 more voids, 51+ or Ban Kai level=3 more voids.
Duration and/or cooldown: 3 attacks consumed/ 8 posts
Name: Buitre huelga - Vulture Strike
State:Sealed
Description: This technique is basically an attack which involves using her sword or hand as a medium for a massive amount of reiatsu. This reiatsu takes the form of a bird's head, consuming the limb or weapon used. This will increase the power of the next stabbing attack nearly five times over.
Cooldown: 3 posts
