-Basic Information-
Name: William Dagworth
Age of Death: 16
Real Age/Age of Appearance: 16/ 18
Birthday (Month/Day): April 1st
Blood Type: A+
RP Sample (Optional):
It had been an unnaturally quiet night. The wind had died, the sounds of the town all but present; the normal subconsciously drowned out noises of insects were gone. All that could be heard were the sound of William's harsh panting as he struggled to breathe; eyes closed as he continued to try supporting himself on his hands and knees on the tatami.
[/div] The sounds of a wet crunchy splattering and muffled, pain-filled screaming, alerted the young boy of his surroundings, and away from his own predicament. Opening his eyes, and tilling his head slowly upwards, rest of his struggling breath was taken away upon the sight.
Feet away from him, down the hall in which he had forcefully collapsed, was what William could only hope was the scene of avid nightmare.
The door to his father's room was ripped off the henches, bearing raked marks upon hit,as it rested a skewed in the hallway. Blooded rake marks ran along the matted floor, leading to what was before him now.
His father hung in the air, without support; his left arm on the ground, separated from his body as blood pooled and soaked around it. William watched in dazed horror as the tall, well built man was launched into the hallway wall, then launched into the other; an action that repeated in a macabre version pinball.
William made to call out to his father, no thought or planned action to the gesture, but no sound came, as the air once more strangled out of him; a distant sound of rattling echoed in his ear.
He watched in continued horror as the man was once more held aloft, then with unimaginable precision, William watched as his left leg came undone below the knee in slow, meticulous and unseen means; his father screaming out in muffled pain. The wet squelching sound returned once more in full
A spike of fear, poured a surge of adrenaline within the teen boy, and William found himself turning, and making clumsy movements to get away from whatever was happening to his father; the confusing sounds of distant ringing chains echoing as he did so.
Until they came to an adrupt halt; a feeling of taut pressure precluded the stra ge happenings, along with William finding that he could go no further.
The squelching stopped.
Never had he been some terrified in his life. Never before, had William dreaded turning around to see what was behind him. But he did. Some imstinct; some drive or sound or force or fate or flying spaghetti monster, demanded that he turned around.
He did so; with terror filled apprehension, William turned his head around and looked once more at his father.
The man hung there, nearly lifeless, as his life fluid trinkled out in short, constant droplets. But it wasn't that which taught William's attention. No...slightly beside and infront of his father, was what William could only make out to be the faint silhouette of a woman; her long hair aiding in frame her darker outline than that of the surrounding darkness. Her feet hidden in what possibly could be a dress or gown of some kind.
The outline of her head, turned to face him.
William sharply inhaled as he realized he had somehow gained the attention of what could only be the cause of his father's predicament. Was he to be next? Was it the reason why he couldn't breath; he couldn't move? What was it to do all these things?
Thoughts and questions raced a crossed his fear addled mind as he continued to stare unblinkingly at the area his predisposed senses believed its eyes would be located.
The thing stared back.
It continued to stare.
It turned! Causing William to release the breath he had been subconsciously holding; making him loosen the tautness of the force, and sound of distant rattling.
The thing turned back and focused its attention upon him, causing William to go still once more. The outline remained unnaturally still, almost to the point of having William believe he was seeing things, if not for the slowing dying presence of his floating father. Seemly unconcerned with his lack of action; it focused once more on his father, and began it's murderous monstrations.
William could only look on in horror as the butchering continued, reach its peak, then ended; his father little more thatln pieces than an actual person. What could he have done? He couldn't take, he couldn't move, he could barely even make sense of everything that was happening, let alone do anything about it. But that didn't matter now...as it was his turn...
William turned his gaze down onto the floor, breathing coming much easier, as he awaited his demise. There was an occasion rattling of chains, akin to the flow of someone walking, which could only be death approaching. Closing his eyes, he waited for the pain to start.
He waited.
And waited some more.
Angry indignation at being toyed with, made Riku speak out for the first time. "If...y-you're going...to kill me...j-just do so...already!" he managed to pant out.
Biting pain; Crippling pressure surged through his very being, as his head was forced to look upwards. His sight filled by the outline of an outline of what could only be a woman; whom was currently looming over him.
A force pulled him bodily upwards with a start, and it did not let up, until he found his footing; a fact which took some time due to the pressure he was painfully feeling by whatever the thing was doing to him. The sound of rattling chains grew insistent as the pressure remain a forceful tautness towards the outline-woman, and William found his body moving against his will towards it; pain over took him, and blackness soon followed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Personality-
Dislikes:
-Sudden noises: William would never admit it to anyone that asks, but his death had caused him a form of post mortem ptsd. He detests sudden burst of noises; especially when he can not locate the cause of it. -Crowds: There seemed to be something different now that he was in the afterlife when it came to people, be it the energy they gave off or his disposition, William could not stand being surrounded by his fellow classmates.
-Hot tea: What was the point of burning your tongue on a beverage meant to be soothing and calming? What was calming about hot things anyway?
-Abrasive people: Those that acted and spoke without thinking through their actions, weren't worth the time it would take to deal with the fallout they would cause; especially the noise that would ensue with them.
-Ignorance: Not knowing key information is a death sentence, this much has been proven true from his only memories of life before death. Wilfully continuing to not learn, and better one's self, is simply a cry for an early grave, and deserves to suffer under the machinations of the strong and informed.
Likes:
-Cold places: What wasn't there to like? The fresh chill air. The soothing anbuance of coolness sliding over your body. The refreshment felt when indulging in a drink? What wasn't there to like. -Pineapples: A rare treat in his new life, but one of the few things he could say that might be from his forgetten self; William has clung to it as a lifeline of times pass.
-Puzzles: The mind is a weapon like any other, and it must be sharpened with tools suited for the task. Only thing more calming than talks with Otohime, is relaxing with adl difficult puzzle.
-Submissive and shy people: There were people that were meant to lead, and those that simply enjoyed following. Someone that would quietly obey when given sound, reasonable instructions or commands, was an ideal person to have around.
-Structure and cleanliness: While he didn't experience the brunt of it, many of the would be shinigami took the poor habits of the less fortunate rukongai with them. William enjoys the ability to have a set plan in mind, and a surrounding that enabled logical thinking; doubly so when contrasted with what he saw in his fellow students.
Flaws:
Self-serving- William doesn't do anything that doesn't benefit himself in the long run. From his choices, to company, to simple actions; everything is done with a specific goal in mind.
Apathetic- There are very few things that William cares about now that he's seen the afterlife; there has been little reason to care as far as he has been concerned.
Dominant- William can not find it within himself to subject to the will of others, and will do what he can to be in control or the leading force of a situation or task.
Sadist- 'To see others suffer does one good, to make others suffer even more: this is a hard saying but an ancient, mighty, human, all-too-human principle. Without cruelty there is no festival.'

Habits:
-William isolates himself and his zanpakuto from others, due to his personality.
-William bites into his cheek when he needs to focus on the present and not his thoughts.
-'Word is golden' - upon given a beneficial agreement, William will abide by it to the definition of the word. -William isolates himself and his zanpakuto from others, due to his personality.
-William bites into his cheek when he needs to focus on the present and not his thoughts.
Fears:
Acousticophobia- Little remains of William's memories of his past life, but the manner of his death remains vivid; with that, comes his hatred and fear of the ringing of chains.
Asthenophobia- Weakness had caused his death, and weakness can no longer be abided by within his existence. The existence of someone stronger than him, causes William great anxiety and fear for his life around them.

Goals: -Become the Head Captain of the Society. To the best of his knowledge, there is no higher possible position, which can be attained given his 'birth' than that of the captain commander. Being capable of reaching that strength means he has little to fear of others, and his death at there hands.
- Find what had caused his death and kill it. There is a score to settled with whatever that thing was; debts to be paid. He may not be strong enough or know where it is, but he has an entire afterlife to prepare, and locate it. And when he does...
- Find a reason to care about the afterlife outside of his survival. As bent on killing his killer as he is, there must be a plan for something after. There must be a reason to go on, besides the base instinct of security and revenge...

Alignment: Lawful Evil
Overall Personality: Upon his death, William has been shaped by his experiences. Having no memories of his prior life, except for his death, and spending a few weeks wondering and learning about 'heaven'; he had become discontent and driven by the need to never be in the position of weakness again.
A quiet and observant, William typically spends his time away from people and company of others. Typically focusing on his training or unwinding in an isolated place with Otohime.
William holds no qualms when it comes to voicing his opinions and taking charge, in order to avoid following someone else, unless it would be grudgingly beneficial to follow.
There is little that brings him enjoy, the exception being when he has the excuse of fights to cause harm to others, and those that are able to garner his attention due to ability or mannerism, along with their potential use.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Powers-
Fighting Style: William prefers to end a fight as quickly as possible, if he holds no alternative reason for prolonging it. This is typically done through the use of Iaido; specifically the style of tenshinryu hyouho battojutsu.
This ruthless mentality to combat comes from simply not caring about it, outside of his survival, and the wish to move on to something more vital.
When it isn't possible to quickly remove said threat,William becomes more analytical of his opposition and its movements; focusing on the use of kido techniques, incooperating the lower number forms to create brief openings within his opponent.
With his mentality set upon a protracted engagement, William takes pleasure in the pain he causes, as a form a catharsis. Using the style's focus on targeting the key points of the body to disable the opponent, William makes sure his opponent is unable to fight back before he then makes shallow cuts along their body to ensure pain is caused with each movement, and their eventual death by bleeding out.

Zanpakutou Spirit Appearance(Optional):
Otohime, 'Young Princess', is William's representation of lost and longing. As a reflection to the young shinigami, she thrives to further his ideals and goals, by pushing him and challenging him to form his vision upon the world; a vision that has seemingly been lost to him.
Otohime takes the form of young girl the same age as William.Standing at 5'2" she dresses in a black gown; which condition differs with the emotional state of William. She walks with a plain black staff, to 'guide her', as her beautiful and otherwise pristine face, is marred by burn scar tissue over her eyes.
Otohime has a more vocal and coy personality than that of William's, and willing to oppose his views on a matter if they go against the ideals she views as gospel. She speaks in a soft and rhythmical manner, which often resounds into a whisper within the Inner world.
Inner World(Optional):
William's inner world, takes the form of a grand, cavernous cathedral; The architecture of which takes the form of the gothic style. Otohime can be found wondering the place, but mainly stays by the altar, and before the pews.
Depending on varying factors, The world would be brightly lit, with the walls pristine and blazen by strongly lit candles, and the cavernous ceiling visible by the hanging chandeliers. Or, it can be a decrepit, dark lifeless place; only being lit by the candle stand wielding Otohime.
Within the world, the sight of 'ghosts' can be seen wondering around, doing various things depending on the echo, by they hold no affect on the area around them.
Zanpakutou Appearances: Sealed state-
Otohime within her sealed state, takes the form of a 28" long, bladed katana, the scabbard of which takes on a plain black color. Her blade also carries on with a black tint, same is true for her four petal shaped guard, but her handle takes on the pristine white of fresh snow.
Shikai-
In her initial release state, Otohime reveals her beauty. Once released, the weapon changes from a katana to a jian; the blade of which becomes 34" long, and houses a hollowing that runs in the middle of it. Otohime becomes more eye catching, having her blade gleam in the slightest of light, and her scabbard and hilt become laiden with decorative images and jewels, while her handle becomes pitch black. Shikai-
Attached to her scabbard is a set of black tassels, with three hidden bells within it.
Zanapkutou Release Names:
Shikai- Nibui, Otohime (Lull, Otohime)
Bankai- Otohime no chinmoku no chinkonka (Otohime's Silent requiem)
Shikai- Nibui, Otohime (Lull, Otohime)
Bankai- Otohime no chinmoku no chinkonka (Otohime's Silent requiem)
Overall Ability: Otohime, above all else, is a spirit that hides her true intentions and interests with her appearance and voice. Her ability to manipulate vibrations, hides her true capabilities of reactionary replication. Through experiencing the clashes and defeats of her opponents, Otohime keeps a record of the instant.
Shikai Overall Ability: Otohime's form allows her to manipulate vibrations and reiatsu around her; releasing a calm tenor as she is used or a shrieking cry. Upon interacting with an opposing force, Otohime records the frequency of the vibrations and reiatsu, and stores the 'echo' within the Inner world.
Bankai Overall Ability: Otohime manifests the Inner world in the immediate area. Within her domain, she manifests herself and the echoes that have been recorded, and burns the instants for use.
While the Inner world has been manifested, William is still able to utilize her shikai state.
These however, hides her true ability; the silent destruction of her opponent through the subvocalized frequency of her singing.

Zanpakuto Techniques:
Shikai:
Requiem's Bell (Indirect Offensive) - As she moves, the bells on her tassels emit a sound. By paying a price of 300 reaistu, with an upkeep of 50 per post; Otohime damages the inner ear of her opponents, and causes them to both have hallucinations of multiple William's and lose their ability to balance.
Remembrance(Passive)- as William physically clashes with an opposing force, Otohime records the instance within the Inner world.
Weakness : Otohime must return to her sealed state in order to record the instances. Use of her only offensive ability, causes her to lose the held instance and energy.
Shriek (Offensive) -Throughout her maintained state, Otohime sings as she slices through the air; retaining the kinetic energy, vibrating and becoming sharper. Upon this command, Otohime releases all the stored vibratory energy as a concussive blast from the tip of her blade; the act of which is accompanied by the sound of her screaming.
Bankai: Resonance Reqiuem(Indirect Offensive) - With the Inner world made manifest, Otohime is able to use the recorded instances, which take the form of a translucent version of the original, and launch the record attack.
Weakness- Once used, the recording is no longer available unless a repeated instance is/was made. Operate without Otohime's discretion.
Silence in the dark (Offensive) - A combination of her two shikai abilities, a resounding gong-like, sound wall of concussive force is released from Otohime.
Siren in the Dark (Indirect Offensive) - In her Bankai state, Otohime focuses on combining her two abilities. As the opponent continues to be exposed to William's Inner World, Otohime sings at a subvocalized level; attuning to the frequency of the individual. Upon finding it, Otohime's song does increasing internal damage per post.
Advantage: If Otohime has a Reqiuem of the individual, damage is done immediately on the activation of the technique.
Weakness: Otohime's song can not focus on multiple targets. If there is no Reqiuem, two posts of exposure has to pass before see finds the necessary frequency for the attack.
{Techniques}
Class 7 Hohō
Technique Name: Shunpo (Flash Steps)
Class: 7
Technique Type: Kidō
Technique Element: None
Technique Description and Effects:
A movement technique that allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow. The focal point that determines the basis of this technique is speed. As speed is the main point of the technique, the method is best characterized by how fast one can get from Point A to Point B in the least amount of steps. Training and skill are what determines how fast a user of Shunpo can move. Those of little skill in the technique or those who haven't used it for an extended amount of time would obviously be out of practice, causing those individuals to be considerably slower. This requires the use of more steps to move the same distance and become tired more easily in a shorter amount of time. A single step magnifies speed for that step by ten times. Shunpo uses fifty Reiatsu per step. This one is automatically learned in the academy. All Shinigami know this when created. This technique does not take up a technique slot.
How to use technique:
Focus of Reishi around the feet area and launch off into a single blurring step. It is not unlike teleportation in appearance, but it is simply extremely fast movement. It is often used to gain an edge in a single moment of combat or to dodge incoming attacks.
Technique Name: [Bakudo #9: Geki (Strike)]
Class: [7]
Technique Type: Kido
Technique Element: [Light]
Technique Description and Effects:
Fires a red light from the caster's fingertips, not unlike a Hollow's Cero, though far smaller and weaker. Anyone caught in the red light will be paralyzed for one post. The paralysis can be shrugged off with equal reiatsu strength, but this takes a few seconds. Superior reiatsu strength of 25% or higher will allow a very fast removal of Geki's effects. 50% or higher makes it instantaneous.
How to use technique:
Requires the caster to aim, not unlike use of any Hado technique.
Incantation and Effect:
Incantation causes technique's size to double, but does not include any reiatsu strength bonuses. ("Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini!! Look upon yourself with horror and then claw out your own throat!")
Technique Name: Hado #1: Shō (Thrust)
Class: 7
Technique Type: Kido
Technique Element: None
Technique Description and Effects: This technique creates a simple burst of force that pushes at the opponent backwards. The force is equal to the user’s Reiatsu Strength.
How to use technique: Speak the spell and point hand at the target.
Incantation and Effect: Incantation unknown. When the incantation is spoken, the Reiatsu Strength used to determine the power of Sho is increased by 10%. (i.e. 100 Reiatsu Strength is treated as 110.)
Technique Name: Hado #4: Byakurai (Pale Lightning)
Class: 7
Technique Type: Kido
Technique Element: Thunder
Technique Description and Effects: The user fires a concentrated, powerful lightning bolt from their finger that pierces a target.
How to use technique: Speak the spell and point hand at the target.
Incantation and Effect: "Arise god of thunder! Awake mother of storms! Unleash the lighting on the sinners!" When the incantation is spoken, the Reiatsu Strength used to determine the power of Byakurai is increased by 10%. (i.e. 100 Reiatsu Strength is treated as 110.

-History-
Birthplace:Wales, UK
Current Residence: Rukongai
Memorable Figures: Black outlined Woman - The cause of his exact death remains unknown to William, but this was the last figure which loomed over him as he died; the past connection to a life he does not remember. They took everything from him...one day he will return the favor.
History: The memories of William's life have all be taken upon his death. The sole connection to that precieved life, has only been the scarring last moments of his death. Despite this, he had retained his name...whatever it meant now in the afterlife.
Upon 'waking' in the afterlife, William had felt nothing but discontent in his new world and biting hunger. He could not remember what he had expected, but he felt it wasn't this. Upon learning his location in the Rukongai, district 7, and the famed authority of the new world he inhabited; William made his way there.
It was not due to the flowery words of the woman that told him of the shinigami that made him go to this 'Seireitei', it wasn't the promise of food and wealth to be had when his particular circumstance would garner. No, it had be a driving fear.
Fear of the unknown that William no realized was all too real. Fear of the lack of protection against it, and fear that 'she' would come for him; after all, where had the shinigami been when 'she' had initially come in the first place?
It was with this drive and determination that saw William through his time at the academy. Pushing through the lessons and abilities taught. Focusing on what he deemed necessary for his survival, and always looking ever forward to the things that would gain him the best options to see his goals attained.
Now, he stood on the precipice of his future, of all that he needed and dreamed. William was about to be Shinigami, and with that, he would further his strength as he searched for clues as to how he got to the after life, and what happened to the thing that killed him.
