Technique Class: 1 - 250 TTP

Description: The relationship with one's Zanpakuto Spirit varies from Shinigami to Shinigami. Some work in tandem with their Spirit, treating them as equals. While others force a much more servitude relationship. Making the Zanpakuto Spirit out to be nothing but a mere tool. A simple weapon to be handled and used when needed. Regardless of the relationship, a Zanpakuto Spirit is a representation of a Soul Reaper's very soul. They are a piece of them. Though similar in personality in some aspects. They can be vastly different from others.
Soul Resonance is more along a state of being than a technique itself. It represents a melding of the mind, body and soul between Shinigami and Zanpakuto Spirit. When the two truly become one harmonious being. No longer shackled by differing thoughts and personalities. The Zanpakuto Spirit and Shinigami have become truly one. Acting, fighting and even speaking as one. The voice of the Zanpakuto Spirit will overlap and resonate from the Shinigami. The appearance of the Shinigami will differ from Reaper to Reaper. Causing the Shinigami to take some resemblance to their Zanpakuto Spirit. This varies depending on the Spirit in question. Possibly causing the Reaper to sprout wings or even a tail. Sometimes shifting their physical appearance drastically. which can shift wildy between Shikai and Bankai respectfully.
Soul Resonance - Echo: The Shikai variant of Soul Resonance is simply known as Echo and can only be activated alongside Shikai. Remaining active for the same length as Shikai. In this state the Shinigami and the Zanpakuto Spirit haven't fully fused. They merely share the same state of mind, the same goal. Though some physical features of the Reaper will change causing them to faintly resemble their Zanpakuto Spirit. But only small changes will occur. Such as a change in clothing or even eye color. Possibly even growing fangs.
Soul Resonance - Harmony: The Bankai variant of Soul Resonance is known as Harmony and can only be used alongside Bankai. Remaining active for the same length Bankai remains active. In this state the Shinigami and the Zanpakuto Spirit have fully harmonized. This shifts the Shinigami's appearance as well as their personality heavily. Causing them to appear as a fusion between Shinigami and Zanpakuto Spirit.
During Soul Resonance, the Shinigami and Zanpakuto Spirit act as one. And as such their release techniques become less strenuous and easier to perform on their spiritual bodies. Allowing the Shinigami and the Spirit to cut the cost of release techniques by 25% in Shikai and 50% while in Bankai.
How to Use: Commune and resonate your soul with ones Zanpakuto Spirit when releasing.
Incantation: N/A.
Drawbacks: Though this technique is rather strong, it comes with some rather nasty drawbacks. First of all, the personality of the user can vastly shift after fusion. Forcing the Shinigami and Zanpakuto Spirit to perform and act in certain ways they would not before. Making the user out to be a completely different person. This is mainly an issue in Bankai though and is rarely a problem in Shikai. This technique cuts the duration of release. Also this technique can only be used once in a thread and remains active for the length of that release. Thus might require the Shinigami to refresh their release in order to remain fused. Lastly even though this technique is active for release. Exiting this fusion at any time puts the Shinigami in a wounded state. Cutting their instinct and offensive by 25%, lasting for three posts afterwards. This is due to the stress that this fusion puts on their spiritual bodies.
