Graven Fel
Identity of a Soul
Name: Kirigaya Kyoraku
Alias: Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13
Age: 2000+
Age of Appearance: Early Thirties
Gender: Male
Race/Species: Pure-Blooded Shinigami
Character Alignment: Lawful Good
Appearance:
Personality: Kirigaya is a firm believer in tradition, but he tends to give this up occasionally in lieu of repaying debts owed by the Gotei 13 to prevent stains on their honor. He is very practical, seeing both sides of the story more often than not. His wisdom is heeded by every last man and woman in the 13 Court Guard Squads, and he will never refuse to listen if someone needs help. To forgive is, in his eyes, an important lesson that all must take to heart.
When it comes to combat, his skill is nearly unmatched due to the unusual nature of his Zanpakuto. Dancing like a blurr on the battlefield, he dispatches his foes with centuries of practice and ease beyond the comprehension of most opponents. He remains calm, and truthfully hates fighting because he is just so damn good at the art of warfare.
When it comes to drink, however, he abstains from it as much as he can while on duty. It clouds the mind and taints thoughts with it's stain. He will indulge himself when he isn't busy, however, and is a social drinker. Flirting with women comes naturally to him, and he has the second-largest fan base in the Shinigami Women's Association. He would not sully his honor or theirs, however, and leaves flirting as just that for the most part.
Intended Role: Kirigaya Kyoraku is intended to be Head of the AU Kyoraku Clan and Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13.

Battle Specs
- List of 'Known' Skills:
• Shunpo
• Basic Reiatsu Detection
• *If more need to be added let a Mod/Admin know*
Personal Abilities:
(Shinigami may not start with more than ONE personal ability. Personal abilities are special powers unique to your character. They are obtained at birth or through freak occurrences. These cannot be things you would able to teach others or simply obtain through hard work along.)
Name: Enchanting Melody
Effect: Kyoraku's Reiatsu when released gives off music, ballads and poems rolling away from the man's body as he moves. He can also change the tune to more modern music if he so chooses. His personal favorites are Three Days' Grace and Fall Out Boy, as they work best with his Shikai.
Shinigami's Partner
Zanpakuto Name: Ichirin no Hana
Zanpakuto Element: Music
Sealed Weapon Appearance:
Spirit Appearance: A little girl holding a single flower.
Spirit Personality: A good singer, Ichirin no Hana appreciate music of all types. She can recite any song she's ever heard off the top of her head, and HATES when people are out of synch.
Inner World: An old-fashioned Victorian Ballroom.
Shikai Release Phrase: Harmonize, Ichirin no Hana!
Shikai Appearance: Ichirin no Hana's Shikai looks exactly the same as her sealed form, but with every swing a beatuiful tone emits itself.
Shikai Abilities:
(Shinigami may start with ONE shikai ability; you may have two shikai abilities only if you can get the tier of 3-3 or stronger. If you have two anyway and fail to get that tier, you will simply have to lock one of the abilities so you can't use them until you hit the appropriate rank. Shikai abilities are only usable in Shikai - they do not apply in bankai or your sealed form.)
Name: Burning Rythym, Beating Heart.
Effect: This ability is simple and straightforward. As long as Kirigaya and his opponent are on tempo with the music given off by the Captain-Commander's Reiatsu, they both gain +1 to their AR in addition to other bonuses. HOWEVER, if one of them breaks the rythym, then that individual is paralyzed for 1 post. Therefore, to break the melodious flow of combat is to die. This counts as complete paralysis, rendering the opponent unable to even speak.
Name: The Singing Sword
Effect: In addition to being able to control the tempo of battle, Ichirin no Hana is also capable of different effects based on which sword is used by manipulating their pitch. The katana is capable of lower-pitched sounds, heightening the density of the blade and allowing for crushing attacks. The shorter wakizashi is capable of higher pitches, allowing it to slice through any material it comes in contact with.
Bankai!
Bankai Name: Mimizawarina Kaze (Discordant Winds)
Bankai Release Phrase: Bankai, Mimizawarina Kaze!
Bankai Appearance: Kirigaya's Bankai takes the appearance of a long bone-like staff with holes drilled in various points, letting out enchanting yet nigh-unholy notes with each swing.
Bankai Ability:
Ability Name: Yume no Kengen (Manifestation of a Dream)
Ability Description: Mimizawarina Kaze has the ability to make all songs into reality.
Bankai Techniques: Limit 6
Technique Name: London Bridge
Technique Description: London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady. All structures within audible range of this haunting children's song collapse from structural damage. No charge time, and requires 3 posts to cool down.
Technique Name: Centuries
Technique Description: Playing this popular song by Fall Out Boy, Kirigaya Kyoraku can manipulate the memories of those around him that are of equal Tier or below. This ability may only be used outside of combat, and can be interrupted while charging. You will remember me for centuries. 1 post charge time, 5 post cool down.
Technique Name: Time of Dying
Technique Description: By playing this song by Three Days' Grace, the Captain-Commander can accelerate or decelerate time itself to suit his needs within audible distance. I will not die, I'll wait here for you in my time of dying. 2 post charge, 3 post duration, 6 post cool down.
Technique Name: Ring Around the Rosie
Technique Description: Pockets full of Posy...Ashes, Ashes, we all...Fall...Down. This is Kirigaya's ultimate technique. Any enemy within audible range that hears this song has their Reiatsu output momentarily blocked, causing them to internally combust from the inside out. The more Reiatsu they have, the faster they die, inverse from the Tier chart. Therefore, someone 2 Tiers higher would take 2 posts to completely combust without intervention, and someone 2 Tiers lower would take 6. This technique takes 4 posts to charge, and 10 posts to cool down. Death is only capable in threads where it is allowed, otherwise opponents will merely suffer severe trauma and 4th-Degree burns internally.
