Name: Hyroku Sanada
Age: Around 3k, a continuous character from other bleach sites is the explaination.
Gender: Male
Appearance: Hyroku is a man that stands at 6'0. His eye color is a hazel brown and has high cheek bones. His skin is a dark brown color (like Tousen and Yoruichi) and his hair is long and spiky. Do not laugh, but it's almost akin to that of a super saiyan three. The hair grows all the way down to his lower back. He is also fairly muscular with evened out strength in both upper body and lower body. His attire is that of an arrancar, the inverted colors of the shinigami. The only modification to his attire is that the sleeves are ripped off, the ends serrated and jagged. His hollow hole is on the middle of his chest. The remnants of his hollow mask is a jaw bone that's attached to the lower part of his face that extends down to his midsection, spreading out to form a type of second ribcage. His zanpaktou is also attached to his side with the use of a black obi-sash.
Personality: His personality is much like his familiar incarnate. However, along with being a serious person at times, even perverted, he can be quite formiddable in battle. During his years among the spirit worlds, he has developed his hand to hand combat skills to their fullest whereas he rare draws his zanpaktou. When he does draw it, his cqc is converted into his swordsman ship since a weapon is just an extention of his arm. With this in mind, he is considered to be a dangerous man to fight head on. He is often seen as short tempered, but it doesn't mean that his mind is clouded with his emotions..most of the time. Also, he has seen enough combat to foresee the result of almost any battle except his own when encountering certain people. All in all, he is gifted in the ways of combat and intelligence as he was able to make an incarnate of his own and clone variants of himself while in hiding. He even experimented on himself and roughly survived through almost every experiment he has conducted.
History: Hyroku Sanada was a soul born in the spirit world. He lived in Rukongai as one of the people that was poor after moving out of his parents' house. He wondered the street, stealing certain items and even chemicals from other people. From common house hold items to cooking oils and such and began to experiment to make various objects and solutions. He has forgotten which inventions and solutions made..except a few.
When he was a shinigami in training at the academy, he had average scores..except in subjects such as tactics and kido, though he prefers not to use it. Years later, he graduated and became a member of the thirteen protection squads. He often went to the maggot's nest using certain kido as distractions and methods to sneak in. Once there, he used prisonersas subjects for experiments. However..none of them came out alive except a few that have broke down into spirit particles and reformed with a corroded soul chain and breaking..this created a hollow that had to be killed.
It was years later where he was a lieutenant and engaged in a small war where hollows popped up endlessly in Rukongai. This was the first time where he revealed his first successful experiment: an artificially modified zanpaktou. His zanpaktou was a large claymore made of sapphire that controlled the said substance as well. People might as well called it an earth attributed zanpaktou, but it had other unworldly abilities as well. This sapphire was used to convert the ground into its own spawn of its power and ended the war after two days at almost the cost of his own life.
He was recommended to become a captain, but still needed to perform the requirements to become one. However..one day, a captain had disappeared on the day of the challenge. Even months later, he had not shown up..Hyroku claimed the spot as captain without any underlings.
What happened to this captain, many people wondered. He was kidnapped with the use of his zanpaktou to sap his reiryoku and brought him to the underground room in the Maggot's nest. He performed countless experiments on the helpless captain and performed perfection..an immortal shinigami with powers that weren't even familiar with its own kind.
He erased its memories at one point and sent it on its way to Earth with artificial memories..planted memories of his choosing until it was mature enough to make its own. Also without notice, one of the hollows involved in the war were kept hidden in the maggot's nest and experimented on..becoming hollows of an artificial nature. He planted his own memories and altered them into three of his successful experiemtns that made a vizard and two arrancar as time moved on and these hybrid races were discovered, but they weren't the first ones of their kind. They claim to be him..but they were merely clones. And then it was time..Hyroku Sanada was experimenting on himself to gain hollow powers after keeping remnants of hollow reishi in certain containers..and there things went horribly wrong.
He underwent extreme hollowfication and actually turned into a hollow through an unstable transformation. Things were slowly calming down as he rampaged through the recreation area of the maggot's nest, attacking every dangerous criminal and convict that he saw. One got lucky and got a fatal hit near the skull and shattered a piece of his mask. He likely ignored it but tore that fragment of the mask off..and turned into an arrancar, though the term was unknown at the time. He walked over to the last prisoner in the rec room and pierced his adam's apple with his hand, utilizing a knife hand strike.
With his new found powers, he went to Hueco Mundo and met more of his kind. Hyroku couldn't completely seal his powers..he had a tail at the time, but was still capable of using resurreccion.
He met two other arrancar that were fraccion to the Primera Espada. Though he wasn't apart of the arrancar army yet, he helped the two that were engaged in battle with a shinigami. He retreated, leaving Hyroku with his newly found comrades.
They introduced him to the one named Kurotsuki, the aforementioned Primera Espada. And from there, he was made a fraccion as well to his leader and was very loyal. After countless times of being loyal to his great leader, Kurotsuki was lacking powerful Espada and called forth three of his fraccion and made them the notorious Espada, one of the most powerful arrancar in existence. Hyroku was made the eigth Espada. He gave orders for him to remain behind while the other two to infiltrate Seireitei and one of the division quarters to acquire information and equipment.
However, the two were caught by a few shinigami and a powerful captain. The two were severely injured, but one more than the other. Hyroku was wondering how they were doing, so he had a type of pacemaker tracer to keep a track of their vitals signs..theyw eren't looking good. He left for Soul Society and rescued his comrades from certain death. The one named Ichirio refused to be rescued, but was too injured to really deny the help, so he took them both and dragged them back to his lab in Hueco Mundo.
He healed them both..but by accident, Ichihiro had found one of Hyroku's experiments..he had artificial species of hollow and arrancar that were capable of ascending to a whole new level of power. Hyroku was also the result of this, taking his resurreccion to a second stage..this was merely artificial. Kurotsuki was highly impressed..him and his other Espada bretheren as well. It wasn't long before Hyroku and the otehrs were promoted, himself being the fourth espada. However, when Kurotsuki caught eye on his disobedience of going to Soul Society instead of staying and work on how to perfect this second release, he was demoted and Hyroku Sanada left, furious.
He went to Soul Society and then met a shinigami captain known as Fenshi. Fenshi had calmed the aggresive arrancar and convinced him to join 'his' side as his lieutenant. Hyroku didn't think this was funny one bit..he never thought it was possible being a shinigami again. However..all he needed to do was to become purifed by Fenshi's zanpaktou..and it wasn't long before Hyroku was the 13th squad's vice captain. After that, he had secluded himself from everyone else except his captain, training for several hundred years until he had achieved and perfected bankai.
It was then where there was trouble in the real world..his other teammates and another captain was fighting an extremely powerful vizard in the warehouse. His captain gave him the ok to go while he looked out for things here..he could sense that Hyroku was already at his level, but it wasn't for sure if he possibly thought more of him. After encountering the vizard, after fighting and defeating the one before the leader, he instantly went bankai and the two engaged in a fierce battle that wrecked the warehouse. A vice captain was fighting and holding down a powerful vizard that was the leader of the race..the seventh division captain that was there couldn't believe it. However, Hyroku was fatally injured and caused the vizard leader to retreat after making the warehouse activate a self destruct sequence and spreaded gas that was akin to the effects of SekiSeki stone.
Hyroku quickly rushed to the Senkaimon gate the captain named Seraph made and rushed to Soul Society to be healed. Years later, after his efforts at the warehouse, he was recommended and promoted to become the third division's captain. As his time as captain, he sparred one of the other captains that proved to be an even match it seemed. He also went to earth and fought with the second espada..not even the one named Ichiruki had proved to be a match for his awesome power, she even required the help of one of her fraccions, which was drained and frozen in a block of sapphire that sapped its spiritual energy. Kurotsuki had formed an alliance with the vizard and watched Hyroku..cursing underneath his breath, angry that he left the Espada to help the lowly shinigami.
The one that was affected the most was one named Obscuridad..and the one named Ichihiro. Hyroku encountered Kurotsuki one day on a visit to the real world, the two fighting on an equal level that tore apart the building they were fighting in. Once the battle was over, this had encouraged the man to go to Hueco Mundo, using a device to go there but such an invasion ended in failure as they were outmatched by high level fighters..three Espada and a vizard. They retreated while the opposition retaliated with an invasion to Soul Society. The otehr captains were absent..the vice captains gone.
No one cared for Soul Society at the time except for himself and Fenshi. However, everyone else was driven off..except for Hyroku Sanada. He was the last warrior of Soul Society that stood against the Primera Espada, the third Espada, the Eigth Espada, another weird beinng, and a vizard. He knew he was going to die..but he still had to try. When Ichihiro, who was stronger than last time and was the new primera while Kurotsuki was the conquistador, or leader of the arrancar and hollows, first saw Hyroku, he charged and attacked without mercy.
Ichihiro almost cried in anger, sadness..and anguish, wondering why Hyroku had betrayed them after he was demoted. Hyroku was saddened by this fact and fought Ichihiro back without holding back, landing a few blows until Ichihiro released his resurreccion. Hyroku didn't bother using bankai..he was already exhausted..until another captain came at the nick of time to deflect a powerful cero coming from Ichihiro. This gave him more time to gather enough energy to go bankai..but then..the other captain retreated from the latter's growing power. Rediculous, he thought..he engaged the new Primera Espada in a battle of epic proportions.
Seireitei was flooded in water..buildings were destroyed, slanted over, and corroded. Blow from blow, the two went at it while the others had destroyed whatever was left of Gotei 13. The militia was done..and so was Hyroku. He resealed his powers and stood there in midair..looking at Ichihiro and apologized for leaving him alone. The other arrancar had stood there in shock from the apology and halted his attack, but erupted in anger once more and made the final lunge, stabbing Hyroku in his abdomen where his heart was assumed to be.
His spiritual energy and pressure was gone..his blood sprayed and leaked from his wound and stained the arrancar's blade as he fell into the deep waters that flooded Seireitei..he was never to be seen again. However..his powers was artificial, therefor they were lost and focused to a single point of the pentration and were drained out with his blood. He survived, but barely when years later Soul Society and Seireitei were restored to normal after the arrancars left. He was a lost soul that lost his powers. Little did he know that the wound from the arrancar..and the loss of his shinigami powers allowed his soul chain to corrode and then the battle for his life ensued.
An evil entity was developing within himself and the fight for dominance over Hyroku's body arrived. He passed out in the outskirts of Rukongaki but in his mind was a snow covered field as a hollowfied version of himself stood with a large nodachi as Hyroku was there with his claymore. The two had rushed at each other, striking blow from blow equally but then..Hyroku was hit with a lightning bolt from the hollow's finger. He kneeled and held his chest where the burn mark was.
"W-What the hell!?"
Was all he said. His hollow had explain that while growing inside of him, he consumed his artificial shinigami powers and stunted the growth of his natural ones. So now this hollow had a zanpaktou AND kido. Since the hollow wasn't subjected to his earlier experimentation when his artificial powers came, he couldn't release its powers. However, he did know how to beat him since he has his former powers.
The hollow rushed in again and they locked blades. Hyroku realized that this battle was inside his mind, his physical limits did not cross over to his mind as long as it didn't cause too much mental stress. Then..that's when it happened. His own soul chain was beginning to rejuvenate itself along with his natural shinigami powers. This was only because his hollow was focused on fighting for dominance over his body and that was when it happened. The claymore began to have a tint blue over the steel, resembling his old zanpaktou when modified before it reached spiritual maturity. The sword broke through the hollows..and then through the latter's body. Blood immediately sprayed from his body and soaked Hyroku's in its bodily fluids. It was at that moment Hyroku arose from his forced slumber, his spiritual pressure continuously flowing out of him..his natural powers were born as he sets out to re-join the Gotei 13's forces..but even at this moment, his intentions are unclear with his shinigami powers up to par before losing them.
