{Drenched In Fear}

"So, what is the mission again?"

It was currently late in the quiet city of Heijō, Korea, when the female voice resonated throughout the area and the mist that surrounded it. Aside from her voice, there weren't any other noise that could be heard in the vicinity aside from perhaps the sound of their own footsteps against the ground below. At times, in the distance, cries of farm animals could be heard alongside clinging of steel against metal, but they were so brief that they barely required any notice. The main street, usually bustling with people, was currently empty and it did not seem as though this was going to change until the morning sun rises again. A few lights can be seen here and there hanging from the nearby shops and stalls, though the most seemed either decorative or plainly protective in nature. By the stalls were a few boards dedicated to advertisement, with the most of them seemingly written in Japanese. There seemingly was a great emphasis on cooking and the selling of agricultural wares, most preferably all set up to support those who worked in the construction of the nearby railroad station.

Onto this main road walked two figures which could not normally be seen by any usual onlookers, the both of which sported pads onto their shoulder. The first whose voice resonated a moment ago from a young woman who resembled something close to a teenager, an individual who could not look any more disinterested by where they were currently standing even if she tried. She wore a robe of black and sported a mop of pink for hair which hid her eyes. The sword on her back was small, adequate for her smaller frame. The second individual - the one who accompanied her and currently remained by her left side - was taller and more firm with a dash of black resting on his head and bright blue eyes. He too wore a similar robe. His weapon instead rested at his hip and seemed more traditional in nature when compared to the other. Without surprise, his gaze seemed irritated, most perhaps because he has had the displeasure to listen to his companion's sunny behavior for a very long time.

"I... have told you several times now," he began with a squint of anger briefly pressing the skin of his forehead down into a frown. "Squad 12 detected a really powerful Hollow in this area. They say it is possible that it might be stronger than the ones we usually take care of, so please, for the love of all that is holy in this world, take this seriously." The more the spoke, the more infuriated he seemed to become, enough so to practically shake in anger at the mere thought of continuing this conversation with his partner. In response, said partner merely shrugged.

"Please," she grunted as she looked onward towards the rest of the main street, "do you see anything here that even looks remotely dangerous? All I see is just another village." Her eyes drifted from left to right as she spoke. Despite her words, she was at the very least alert and doing her job as she was told. "If the Hollow we're supposed to kill is that strong, then we'd already be sensing it by now. All I sense here is just a bunch of sleeping Humans."

"That does not mean that you act so lackadaisically!" He huffed with discontent over his inability to deliver his lesson, which prompted him to stop and briefly analyze the area. "Can you not take anything seriously?"

After he asked his question, his partner's footsteps quietened and he received no answer. His brow raised instantly. What could possibly cause his partner to suddenly become so quiet? Rendered curious by this question, he began turning his head towards his partner, but the sight of something which stood far away from their position caused him to stare at it instead. A brief grunt came from him as he attempted to discern the figure. From where they remained, it resembled a normal Human's figure, a male one which seemed to be as broad-shouldered as he was. It did not really seem as though there was anything unusual about him, though once he saw what he held and wore, his brow went back down into a frown once again. It was not a frustrated one this time, however, and it was for a good reason why that was. The figure was draped in white, and on that white cloak he wore stood the infamous cross they swore to destroy.

"Quincy," he huffed with a sort of tremble in his throat as he readied for battle. His hand reached for his blade, and in the moment, he almost forgot that his partner was still standing there without even doing so much as mutter a word even while the target in the distance was starting to beam in a familiar blue. "Ready yourself! If we stand here, we are going to-!" He tried to tell the girl then in order to make her understand, but he then heard the thunk of their enemy's spiritual bow. He knew what would happen if any of the arrows this thing can shoot reaches their target. With this in mind and with a quickness to his step, he grabbed his partner by the shoulder and rushed towards the nearest building as soon as he possibly could. There was no time to wonder where he was going on, no time to worry about possibly creating a fuss within the local populace: they just needed to get out of that blasted archer's field of view.

The swiftness at which they barged into the edifice allowed them to evade the Quincy's projectile, the light of which briefly illuminated the insides of the aforementioned edifice in a flash of blue, though not enough to completely reveal its contents. Meanwhile, the two swordsmen lied on the ground with the male's gaze stuck onto the entrance. He was livid, both from the fact that they have almost gotten themselves killed by just standing there for no reason, and because there was a Quincy here to begin with. A brief flash of frustration beamed in his eyes then as he realized the true culprit of what just happened, and at that moment, he looked over his shoulder towards his partner which he was still holding as she lied on the ground behind him. "What happened? Why did you just stand there?" He shouted in a panic, seemingly in an attempt to understand her decision. "I know that you are not so simple as to ignore such a.... a..."

His voice died down once he realized what he was holding on, and in terror, he recoiled and dropped what he was holding onto. What remained in his partner's place was not his partner alive and well, but rather something else: a corpse. Her eyes were gone and so were her teeth, leaving her face a bloodied mess, and her robes were tattered. It looked as though she had been ripped to shreds in seconds from an assailant that he did not even sense was even close to any of them at the time the Quincy appeared. "J-Juno..." his trembling voice muttered as he attempted to understand what happened, and in an almost-frantic fashion, he looked towards the main door. Was this the work of the Quincy? Was it some sort of ability? No, that's impossible, he hadn't even shot them yet... Was that a trick of his? Whatever this was all about, he wanted to do something, anything to quell the emotions that were starting to overwhelm him.

In an attempt to do just that, he raised him from the ground and unsheathed his blade, staying put as he awaited the Quincy. His stance was imperfect, his breathing was uneven, and his mind was troubled by fear and torment, but there was nothing else he could do other than prepare for what's to come. Even if his partner has fallen, he needs to make sure his mind remains sound in order to take down this foe. As such, he stood there and waited... and waited... and waited further. His hands were trembling then and drops of sweat were dripping from his forehead, and they only became more aggravating once the blue hue of the archer's spiritual bow brightened further and further in intensity as he approached the structure. Eventually, and perhaps crucially for the warrior, the archer appeared before the entrance of the edifice... and once he did, the swordsman froze.

The clothes of the Quincy were empty. All that stood before him was nothing more than an empty garb which floated ridiculously in the wind. From a cross held around the finger of an empty glove beamed a spiritual bow which somehow shone with power despite there being no source for said power to come from in the slightest. For a moment, he merely stood there in disbelief as he watched the clothes simply float there as though themselves willing to break the laws of reality as he knew it. "... Wh-..." his voice briefly fleeted then as he stared, unable to turn his eyes away from the flying clothing. It was only once the bow disappeared and the clothes suddenly simply fell flat on the ground that the man was brought out of his stupor and he jumped back again. He stood there some more to see if the clothes would come back alive somehow, then looked back towards his dead partner as the disbelief remained.

Something was wrong. This was wrong. His partner was dead from something he could not understand and the Quincy proved to be nothing more than a lifeless pile of cloth. None of this made sense, none of it at all, and yet it felt real. This was no illusion, but at the same time, it couldn't be any further from the truth. With so many questions in mind, he attempted to at least answer one of them as his body simply stood there frozen again. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried, no answers came, and eventually, he was brought to the conclusion that he needed to stay strong. Slowly, then, he moved towards the garbs which he once believed to be a member of the accursed clan. If there was an answer to be found, perhaps he could find something worthwhile on the clothes themselves. Perhaps fortunately for him, he did not needed to reach the clothes in order to understand what was going on.

It was only once he saw the figure in the moonlight shining above that he finally understood.

---

A grotesque creature stood over the body of the lone swordsman in the middle of the foggy main street. Its incomplete frame was bulky and its appearance was ugly, with bones edging form its abdomen and an enormous maw taking the place of its mouth. It was taller than most of the building populating the aforementioned street, and it was also much taller than any of the people which also stood by its side in the fog. They were all Humans from this very city, or perhaps creatures seemingly almost as ugly as it was with bodies deformed by muscle and bone. Their looks were hazy yet serene in the pain, seemingly unable to understand the negativity of their situation. Somehow, none of them questioned the existence of the creature nor did they fear it; rather, they stood near it as though they were its servants, its minions, its worshipers.

"Pathetic. Yet another Shinigami now lies dead at my feet," a rugged yet female voice croaked from the maw as it stood in front of the fallen body. As it spoke, it would growl slowly, as though breathing heavily. "As it would seem, carelessness was a trait you both shared." After it was done speaking, the monster turned its back to the fallen spiritual officer, then started walking away alongside her minions. "I will make sure that your Soul is put to good use at my side," its voice would croak again as it walked away until, eventually, it simply faded away into the fog, nowhere to be seen in the area again for this point in time.

The Shinigami was declared dead by Soul Society, and time moved on for this newfound Adjuchas, with another Soul added to its unending hunger.

{Base}

Height: 5'4 ft

Weight: 98 lbs

Hair Color: N/A

Eye Color: Lavender

Hollow Hole Location: Heart


Description

As a mere Stray, Sonadora was never considered to be a very threatening Hollow. Resembling more so a humanoid wisp than the proper spiritual monster that she really is, her body adopts a meager and slender frame that is almost reminiscent of a Human's. In fact, if it was not for its monstrous features, it would not have been difficult to confuse the monster for a Human to begin with. It appears so skinny that its smooth pale grey skin is barely capable of showing off any kind of muscle, instead mostly instead appearing as though the skin rests upon the creature's very bones. Small claws protrudes from the nails of her fingers and toes, though it is quite clear that they would not do much damage in battle, as they appear to be only sharp enough for the consumption of the Hollow's victims rather than for actual combat. No matter how one may perceive the beast, it always appears weak and frail, barely appearing as a threat. At the very least, her limbs are long, and so are her fingers and toes, all of which allow her to hold onto surfaces and escape from danger with better ease than most.

Due to the nature of her abilities, her body is often covered in a gas emanating from the very pores of her skin. The gas in question appears not so much as a sort of smoke or vapor, but rather as something that could be considered much closer to what composes natural fog. This means that, essentially, the Hollow's body expels the equivalent of a cloud whose color is of a weak white hue dependent on atmospheric light. Naturally, the formation of this fog allows the Hollow to benefit from minor camouflage while hunting prey by herself, as the fog is thick enough to cover a small area. It also allows her to appear slightly more threatening while interacting with individuals that may prove more powerful than her, such as the oppressing Shinigami that dare attempt to eliminate her every now and then, strange Humans capable of using spiritual energy in one way or another, or other Hollows that have proven to be more powerful than her. Most importantly, it hides the mask that covers her face, which is potentially one of, if not the only thing that may be considered to be remotely threatening on her person.

The mask in question is a bald slab that - unlike most of the other masks which cover the faces of the rest of Sonadora's kind - covers the entirety of her head, trapping her in a prison of white. It's structure is strange and unaligned with jagged angles that blend in the creature's fog, making it appear as though it was not meant to ever represent something somewhat close to an animal's skull. Its face is flat as though what should have been there simply melted away, with eyes slanted diagonally towards where the ears should usually be located, and a nose that is not quite a nose, but rather simply nothing more than two vertical slits only there to allow the Hollow to be befitted of the ability to smell or breathe. The rest of the mask is composed of the creature's mouth, an abyss of long jagged fangs which eternally guard the Human teeth resting behind them. If it was not for the lavender glow exhumed from the Hollow's eyes, one could have easily confused her mask to be nothing more than an immense jaw stretching unnaturally through the fog.

Due to her awareness of the meagerness of her body without her fog, Sonadora will typically position herself away from prying eyes, though she understands that there are times in which physical interaction is inevitable. In those cases, she stands in a position as slanted as her eyes, with legs seemingly barely capable of supporting her. Her shoulders are pushed forward, dragged by the limpness of her arms, and her head is pushed upwards to stare at her interlocutor. At times, she moves to allow herself to speak while motioning figures with her hands, though she will eventually be forced to enter a position that somewhat resembles the act of simply sitting. In this position, her hands and feet are pressed onto the ground nearest to one another, pushing her body upwards to support it all with ease. It is not a position that she adopts very often when in the presence of another being as she thinks of it as diminutive, though she ultimately finds it to be more comfortable than any other position available to her.

{Gillian}

Height: 40 ft

Weight: 1250 lbs

Hair Color: N/A

Eye Color: Lavender

Hollow Hole Location: Heart


Description

Becoming a Gillian typically involves the enlarging of the Hollow taking part of the process, and Sonadora's own transformation into one is not an exception to that rule. After a sufficient amount of Souls have been consumed by the creature, her body will start becoming larger until it towers above most typical Human homes. No longer will it look meager; rather, it will appear tall. So tall, in fact, that its mere sight can cause fright to spread in the heart of anyone who witnesses it. Even so, it would seem that the slenderness of her previous form will still follow her, for even in this mindless form, she shall appear as though there is naught but a frail bit of notable musculature present within her body. It is as if the skeleton that once was her base form evolved to become a prison not only for one, but for many souls. A celestial jail whose jailer has gone missing, and so the only means of escape these souls may possess is the further consumption of anything standing in their way.

To compensate for the sheer size of this Gillian body, the fog which previously emanated from Sonadora's body becomes more overwhelming, so much so that its area of coverage increases. No longer does it only cover a small area, as now, its task to cover the surroundings of the Hollow's immense frame has allowed it to practically cover much of the equivalent of a small town. This hides the horror which lies behind it, the towering figure whose mask has become now more akin to the visage of a disfigured reptilian. The slits that once formed her nose now pushes forward into a snout, and her mouth appears slightly bigger still, seemingly accommodated for the consumption of either a bigger amount of souls or targets that are simply equal in size to hers. As for her eyes, the slants that once represented them disappeared, instead replaced with two dead eyes shining brightly like beacons of lavender through the fog.

Although Sonadora's soul is not entirely lost while in this form, its lack of presence as the fundamental owner of her own body makes it so that her manners are gradually reduced. Her lack of tools for conversation prevents her from giving her attention to anyone around her, causing her to crawl around in the fog without an ounce of care for those she may inadvertently kill. Rarely, she will sit and stand still in the fog to either stare at the horizon or shake uncontrollably in agony, though soon her movements shall resume, and by then, the consumption shall begin anew.

{Adjuchas}

Height: 20'2 ft

Weight: 315 lbs

Hair Color: N/A

Eye Color: Lavender

Hollow Hole Location: Forehead, Heart


Description

The evolution of a Gillian into a proper Adjuchas is often defined by the soul which dictates its ultimate control upon the Hollow's body, and in so doing, shapes it to its wishes. By then, Sonadora's sheer will to survive and strive over the rest of the souls she has consumed will allow her to prevail against them transform her body into the form which she once occupied before her regression: a large and beastly abomination whose terrifying appearance could only be described as grotesque. Covered in fog, the Hollow's body appears incomplete, far reduced in size compared to her Gillian form, yet somehow also still not small enough to even permit its insides to remain properly covered. Her bones pierces the skin, allowing all to see her rib cage down to even her spine and parts of her tailbone, and her claws are larger than life, prepared to strike at any moment. It is as if it was born of a nightmare, something which should not exist and should have remained in the deepest corner of one's terrible slumber.

Common sense would require the beast to be in constant pain from the exposed bone and skin, and yet, it is in this state that Sonadora achieves a semblance of peace and quiet. Her movement is calm, calculated, as if she understands both the strength and weaknesses of her body to a certain extent as her manners returns to the ones she had while she was nothing more than a Stray. Due to the incomplete nature of her body, she remains mostly on all-four like an animal, though she will often prefer to remain standing while talking to others, this time doing so with visible confidence as she becomes aware of the power she now holds. In the meanwhile, her mask has turned into something even less concrete, a victim of the Gillian to Adjuchas transformation as her maw becomes the only thing with most visibility. Above it stands her eyes and ears both reduced to slits again, though it is clear that a snout forms still, a sign of things to come.

{Vasto Lorde}

Height: 8'2 ft

Weight: 196 lbs

Hair Color: N/A

Eye Color: Lavender

Hollow Hole Location: Forehead


Description

The final transformation of the Hollow known as Sonadora, or so it is currently assumed. Having achieved the perfect form at last, the beast evolves one more time from her incomplete shell to finalize her body into something more humanoid, more concrete to her original Human self. With the fog having now become a clear part of herself, it covers a body that could only be told to be similar to an angel's at a first glance until further analysis reveals the horror underneath the fog. What lies there is a twisted monster whose only humanity resides within the fact she stands on two legs, a being of grey whose bloody claws have long proven their sharpness. The skeleton that once was only Sonadora is now instead replaced with a being of proper flesh and muscle who stands ready to stand proud amongst the Hollows of Hueco Mundo and lead them towards a greater future than what awaits them in the endless wasteland, and the mask that had once been reduced to almost nothing more than a huge maw now instead more so resembles the face of a demonic snake most often shrouded by the fog.

In order to ensure this goal is achieved, the then-Vasto Lorde's posture will have to change, and thankfully, the body that she by then shall have access to will allow her to stand as straight as a normal Human despite her monstrous appearance. She converses normally with further hand motions, all of which are clear and precise, and whenever needed, she sits straight with her legs set against one another. Aware of her monstrous appearance still, she uses her fog to give her body a more-noble and perhaps-divine look most often personally granting her wings and hair, allowing those who she converse with to realize that although she hungers for souls as much as any Hollow, she also hungers for more.

Character Traits

SPOILER: Click to show

{Dislikes}

• Worship of Others: Sonadora has always had a distinct hatred for anyone that believes in what she would consider to be "imaginary deities". After decades of watching Humans kill each other over religious belief, it is only natural that she would have grown to think of it all as a farce. She believes that, in essence, the belief in those visions weakens the mind and renders it eventually obsolete by the ridiculous tales conjured from the minds of old. If there is no proof of this deity existing, then it is merely a delusion, a fantasy not meant believing in. Even so, there is a part of her that hates religion for a more powerful reasoning, though she could not say what that reasoning is for the time being.
  
  
• Insubordination: When you are beneath someone, whether it be on a professional or plainly-natural level, it is imperative that you must know your place. You must conduct yourself before others, allow yourself to be ruled and not resist this power in any way. It is thus unsurprising that Sonadora does not appreciate insubordination from anyone who works underneath her. Although to do so is something that she can somewhat respect depending on the strength of the disobedient, it is also something that she finds to be most often downright suicidal as she has personally witnessed over the course of the 20th Century.
  
  
• Surrender: The act of submitting yourself to an enemy has never been something that Sonadora has appreciated doing. It has always been something that she found to be particularly shameful. To submit yourself to the enemy is to admit that you are too weak to confront them any longer, meaning that you are both outwardly not physically strong enough and thus require to become stronger still, but also inwardly not powerful enough to at least have the courage to fight until the very end or fight for another day. At least, in the case of the latter, the enemy won't be able to do whatever they want with you once the battle is over.
  
  
• Honor In Battle: Even now after centuries has passed after her transformation into a Hollow, Sonadora still does not understand why so many beings are so attached to the idea of honor and value during battle. It completely eludes her, enough so to make her question its necessity. Why would you want to purposefully risk your life over something as measly as respect towards your opponent when you are not even sure that the latter will respond back just as kindly? You can be honorable in games and social activities, but please, not when your existence is at stake.
  
  
• Unnecessary Violence: Violence is, in a way, often considered to be the easiest solution one can possibly conjure from any problem that they may face with another individual. It is an act devoid of thought and only fueled by a need to express anger and frustration, something which allows anyone to avoid logic and reasoning. Unlike many Hollows who fall into that trap, Sonadora prefers to stray away from such a solution. The detriments of violence most often completely surpass any kind of benefit that may be gained from it, and so she strives to only use violence as a complete last resort.
  
  
• Soul Consumption: Hollows tend to enjoy consuming Souls; after all, it is only natural for them to do so. They provide them with power and, ultimately, allows them to survive within this cruel afterlife. Sonadora, however, does not. As a being who believes herself to be intrinsically superior to the rest of her kin, she thinks of the act as a demeaning process, something that should not be. Even if the act is necessary for her to live, she simply despises it and the hunger that pushes her to partake in it. It makes her kin appear savage, beast-like and unintelligent, all attributes that Hollows could surely live without.
  
  
• Insects: Something about the insects which roam the Living World has always somewhat bothered Sonadora. Although she does not necessarily think of them as being dangerous per say, she finds their appearance to be most often unattractive and downright repulsing, so much so that she downright prefers to stay away from them if the option is available to her. Coincidentally, this particular distaste also makes her notably annoyed whenever she happens to meet a Hollow with an insect body.
  
  
• Humankind: In Sonadora's eyes, the existence of Humans is the absolute worst thing that currently plagues the realms. Over the course of the times in which she was most conscious, and perhaps even during her Gillian days, she has always seen them as parasitic entities tasked only to destroy. They commit atrocities wherever they go, dehumanize and devalue their own kin, and are ready to do everything in order to defend their pointless riches to the point of annihilating their own planet. She understands why they must exist, but she also thinks of them as something that eventually must be destroyed for the benefit of all, not just Hollows.
  
  
• Shinigami: This hatred for Humankind naturally extends to its guardians. Even if they are technically Souls which have moved on to the infamous Soul Society, Shinigami are still Humans at heart, and so Sonadora naturally despises them. She hates their proud attitude, hates their strange weaponry and hates their beliefs. Their celestial duty as hunters of Hollows only makes this matter worse, though even without it involved, the Hollow still thinks that she will have found a way to hate them. After all, samurai robes or not, they are still mostly Human.
  
  
• André Belair: Although Sonadora's loathing for Shinigami is more or less evenly distributed between the totality of their forces, she reserves a deep hatred for this particular man of the Twelfth Division. Her knowledge of him is still very much unknown to this day, though she naturally despises him for having forcefully regressed her back into her original form. No matter what he may be and what he may want to do with that ability of his, she will one day kill him slowly for what he has done to her, and she will enjoy every single second of it.Ah 
  
  
• Quincies: Another sect tasked in defending Humanity, only this time without any logical rationale whatsoever. As much as she loathes them, Sonadora sees the necessity of the Shinigami as "balancers". Without them, she would not have existed and neither would have the rest of her kin. In comparison, nothing requires the existence of the Quincy. They are a pointless endangerment to all beings in the universe which only exist because they are themselves emotionally fragile. If their weapons acted like an odd variant of the Zanpakuto, perhaps she would have had a modicum of respect for them, but as it stands, she simply never will.
  
  
• Arrancars: The beings which reside within the oh-so-prestigious Las Noches have always appeared as mutants to Sonadora. She does not see them as equals, and instead as mixtures of Hollow and Shinigami - and therefore, Human - that simply should not be. Perhaps their creation was once considered to be necessary by the previous ruler of Hueco Mundo, but now, the creature simply believes that there is no more point to them and that they should be discarded if Hollowkind wishes to move forward as a race.

{Likes}

• Worship of Herself: Rather ironically and perhaps even hypocritically, despite her hatred of religion, Sonadora adores the idea of possessing followers and people which believe her to be a deity. The adoration is such that she almost sees it as a goal, even if it is not quite so. She never falters whenever she sees someone - be they Ascended or simply a fellow Hollow - worship her in any shape or form, and although she prefers to keep it a secret from others, she sometimes speaks of the matter in a positive fashion. 
  
  
• Evolution: Like all Hollows, Sonadora has a notable penchant towards evolving into a more powerful creature. She believes that, in order to achieve her goals and become something greater, she must unsurprisingly evolve into a higher being. As such, though she still is very wary of what may once again happen to her once she becomes a Gillian, she envisions the power that she may hold once she returns to her Adjuchas form more often than she cares to admit.
  
  
• Honesty: Sonadora much prefers talking to people who are honest with her than those who seek to lie to her face. As a believer of truth, she thinks that those who seek to never deviate from the truth are ultimately more respectful and more powerful than those who rely on lies to achieve their goal. Quite ironically, she doesn't seem to apply that notion to herself, as she will at times use lies to accomplish her own goals, though no one has proclaimed the beast to be the most honest of beings, not even herself.
  
  
• Creativity: Creativity is the essence of life and, realistically, what everything is based on. Without creativity, there would be nothing interesting for her to rest her eyes upon. In a way, the imagination which rests within the minds of Humans is the only thing she can truly admire from them. It is thanks to their innovations that their society has prospered, and it is also thanks to them that perhaps one day, Hollowkind will do the same by inheriting their inventiveness.
  
  
• Patience: There are many beings in this world which react impulsively and impatiently. Hollows, quite unfortunately, are among these beings, especially the ones which have lost themselves to the hunger which grows within. However, it has been proven time and time again that those which are capable of remaining patient are often the ones that strive the most often. It is thus unsurprising that Sonadora tends to very much appreciate the virtue of patience as planning, after all, requires a certain amount of patience in order to be successful in the first place.
  
  
• Modern Technology: In the rarest of times, Sonadora reminisces about the times in which the world was nothing more than a pile of wood, brick and cobblestone. Back then, information between nations was sparse at best and inaccessible at worse, and most people died of the common flu. However, these times have long since ended, as Humans of today now live in an age of cement, electronics and neon lights. This evolution sometimes baffles the Hollow so much that she simply finds herself thinking about it every now and then, trying to understand how everything has evolved so quickly.
  
  
• Chess: An interesting game created more than a notable amount of centuries ago, chess stands today as one of the original games of Humanity. It has been played by thousands, if not millions of players, and to this day, Sonadora still thinks of it as one of the more curious things the race that she loathes so much has left behind in its wake. Quite unfortunately for her lonely mind, there is a crucial lack of Hollows within Hueco Mundo who are even so much as capable of playing chess in the first place without growing bored and downright impatient, and so she tends to keep her love for the game to herself.
  
  
• Jewelry: Bracelets, rings, necklaces, you name it, Sonadora will most likely find beauty in it. The creature has always enjoyed jewelry for some reason that she cannot really explain. Even during her Gillian days, she tended to often gaze at jewelry shops solely to look at the wares which they were showcasing. Some may call it a childish obsession, especially the grand majority of other Hollows who have grown beyond the likes of such novelties, but she nevertheless enjoys these pointless things. Perhaps she will one day find herself collecting them like trinkets.
  
  
• Chocolate: Perhaps the only thing that Sonadora can bring herself to consume other than Souls due to her corrupted biology. Chocolate alongside sweets that contain chocolate in them is a delicacy that the creature does not find herself eating very often due to how it seems as though it is more of a delicacy for Humans as well. She does not really possess a sweet tooth and so is often compelled to not grab as much chocolate as possible much like how she does see herself grabbing jewelry either, but whenever the opportunity shows itself to her, she tends to quickly eat the chocolate snack as fast as she possibly can to satiate herself.
  
  
• Hollowkind: No matter what may happen between herself and her kin, there is nothing more in this world that Sonadora loves more than Hollowkind. It is hard for her to say why that is seeing as this love is most often not returned to her, but she firmly believes that there is good to be found in her fellow Hollows that, in comparison, cannot be found in Humankind. To put it in her own words: "What is totally corrupted is, in essence, totally pure, and so destined to become either rather than a mixture of both."
  
  
• Vizards: Unlike Arrancars, Sonadora somewhat holds a positive, yet restrained interest in the making of Vizards. On one hand, she believes them to be just as strange and blasphemous as Arrancars, a mixture of two races that simply should not be. That is not even mentioning the fact that the most of them are still Shinigami at heart and so behave in a similar fashion to them. On the other hand, they are perhaps the most useful assets at the hands of Hollowkind. With enough patience, the creature believes it possible for Hollows to eventually gain powerful allies from these mutants. All that is needed is a bit of talking and convincing.
  
  
• Nakajima Kimiko: This specific Soul has grown to be a great interest to Sonadora ever since she was capable of having her be moved to Soul Society with her essence infected with her own. She does not quite understand what has happened to her just yet, as her experiment with her reiatsu infusing has unfortunately been interrupted by the Shinigami who stole her power, though she she believes that she will one day be the key to the destruction of Soul Society and, eventually, the creature's ascension into godhood. Well, at least this is what she currently theorizes she will be. Only time will tell if the experiment was successful or not.

{Flaws}

• Arrogant Beyond Belief: Sonadora rarely believes that what she does and what she plans to do is wrong, and so does not often question her power or ability to lead towards victory. Whenever her plan is questioned, she prefers not to take suggestions from anyone but the closest of her allies, and even so, they have to be very potent suggestions for her to consider them as worthy of her attention. Only when she is faced with an extremely-powerful opponent or something that she knows will take her down if she does not thread carefully will her arrogance be toned down.
  
  
• Image-Conscious: Arrogance, in a few cases, can lead to narcissism, and if there is one thing that narcissists tend to believe in, it is their appearance. As a being who firmly believes in her power above all, Sonadora cares very much for her looks. Since her forms do not exhume power as much as her comrades, she tends to use her fog in ways that would make her either appear grander and more holy, or downright more threatening. This care for her appearance tends to make her feel diminished while she does not have access to her primordial ability.
  
  
• Amnesic: The years of emotional outrage combined with her transformation from Gillian into Adjuchas as left Sonadora a person devoid of her past. Her long life is nothing more than a vague fog within her mind, and although there are details that she can perceive within that fog, they are currently too blurred for her to make anything of it. This has made her notably interested in learning about this aforementioned past, so much so that she would do anything to learn more about the person she once was.
  
  
• Disillusioned with the World: Sonadora has a difficult time adjusting with what the world is supposed to be. It has been so ever since she was a Human, as unaware she may have been of the life she once had. She thinks that it is an imperfect thing that reeks of error and imperfection, things that are somehow left uncorrected for the benefit of the few. That reasoning alone is why she wishes to change everything, to become grand and bring about something new, and it is for it that she still moves forward to this day.
  
  
• Uncaring for Human Life: A part of the reason why Sonadora hates the current shape of the world is because of the existence of Humanity, and because of that, she tends to not give a care for the well-being of Humans whenever she is near them. She treats her Human pawns like toys to be discarded at any given time when need be, and when she is near them, she will prey upon them without regret. Why bother regretting the loss of a Human life? They will not be present in the next world.
  
  
• Merciless: Hollows typically never show any mercy to their victims. A few that shed tears for the Souls they consume exist within the Living World and Hueco Mundo, though they are diminished in number, and Sonadora is not among them. To achieve her plan, she must be able to show not only conviction, but also resolution, both of which may at times demand that she chooses to do terrible things. It is without mercy that she will be able to do such things, without clemency, without compassion. There is power in a lack of leniency, and there is also truth.

{Habits}

• Planning: Sonadora is a creature of thought and logic, and so it is only normal that she tends to create a significant amount of plans whenever she is active. The plans themselves can be of any nature that she personally sees fit. They can be simple plans, such as the scheduling of her day down to the strategies that she is meant to use in battle, to more complex and intricate plans which are more advanced in nature. Without this constant and meticulous planning, she knows that she would not be able to achieve a great amount of things in her day, and so it is thus a skill that she tends to cultivate at all times.
  
  
• Analyzing: Planning obviously is partially-based on analysis, and so this constant planning of hers often leads to Sonadora to analyze her surroundings fairly often. The devil is in the detail, and so it is imperative that she knows everything there is to know about this devil until there is nothing left to be known about it. Its color, its shape, its ability, everything must be known. The more knowledge she gathers from this devil, the more she can exploit it in the battles to come, be they occur now or later.
  
  
• Testing: Sonadora's ability is a fickle one in that it requires a notable amount of testing for it to work properly; after all, its function is entirely dependent of her imagination and creativity, both of which must be cultivated like any other function of the brain. In a way, it could easily be considered to be training. It may not be training in the most conventional of senses, but it is just as empowering as a daily commune to the gym, a means to an end in order for her to eventually become strong.
  
  
• Dream-Walking: This wish to test her abilities often lead her to spread her fog in a certain area at night and walk among the dreams of the unaware, bringing them henceforth into her Nightmares. The unaware are completely random in nature, mere victims of occasion that she finds no importance in distinguishing. They can be men, they can be women, they can be young, they can be old, it does not matter. By doing so, she can further understand the weakness of the Human mind as well as its fragility, though most importantly, she also learns of their strengths.
  
  
• Wandering: Ironically, this penchant "walking" within people's dreams translates fairly well within the real world, as Sonadora often simply wanders around the Living World for most of her existence. Despite her hatred for it, she prefers its landscapes over the bland decrepit wastes of Hueco Mundo, and so finds herself walking down the many streets and the many alleys of Human settlements without any bother. It is only during those moments in which she simply wanders the world that she does not find the urge to kill the Humans which she passes by, as it the calm of the activity allows her to think and ponder.
  
  
• Sightseeing: While wandering about the Living World, Sonadora tends to eventually allow herself to gaze upon the creations of Humankind and see what they have become over the course of history. From ancient shrines to graveyards to business offices and busy streets, the creature has seemingly seen it all, and yet there is always something new around the corner. Sometimes, the ingenuity of it all makes her momentarily forget her hatred for Humanity, though that unfortunately never lasts for long.

{Fears}

• Failure: Failing to properly accomplish something can be particularly heartbreaking to a mind like Sonadora's. Although is most often ready to face failure any moment and tends to plan out contingencies for whenever they may occur, it tends to leave a mark on her psyche for at least a good amount of time, as she personally sees failure as a sign of weakness that she cannot allow herself to tolerate. This fear is a bit less accentuated when the failure has been committed by one of her underlings, though she nevertheless remains bothered by it either way.
  
  
• Regression: It is now commonly known by those who are vaguely familiar with the process of Hollow evolution that, at a certain point pass the Gillian stage, it is possible higher Hollows can regress into Gillian once again should they be unable to sustain their power with a consistent amount of Souls. It does not matter if the Hollow is an Adjuchas or even a Vasto Lorde at this point in time: they simply must feed at all time. The thought of it happening to her again after what has happened between herself and that terrible Shinigami simply horrifies Sonadora for many reasons.
  
  
• Loss of Control: Among those reasons stands the notorious loss of control assigned to Gillian and the Hollows which have lost their minds over the course of time. Having been a Gillian herself and now about to most likely become a Gillian once again in the near future, Sonadora does not enjoy the idea of losing herself to something that she herself ultimately cannot control without sheer strength alone. It makes her feel like her body is not her own, like she has been cast in an endless storm that will never end. One day, she will make sure that no Hollow is subjected to such a fate ever again.
  
  
• Weakness: The vast majority of Sonadora's values and principles is based upon the idea of weakness. In her eyes, to be weak is to fail at being strong, and to fail at being strong is to eventually wither and die from the hands of fate without being able to say anything about it. If she can eventually overcome all of her weaknesses or at the least what she assumes to be those which are her most flagrant, then she may be able to both become and consider herself one of the most powerful beings to have ever existed.
  
  
• Burning Alive: There seemingly is not a being in this world that is seemingly as afraid at the idea of burning alive as Sonadora. For one reason or another, she is absolutely incapable of getting too close to a flame without feeling as though the entirety of her soul is begging her to run away from it. Even those who wield fire as their weapon scare her to a notable degree. As it stands, that reason remains completely unknown, but whatever it may be, it must be particularly poignant for her to fear it so.
  
  
• Hell: Despite being somewhat knowledgeable in the laws of the worlds and their logic, Sonadora coincidentally has never really been able to learn much about Hell. The realm of the condemned and the demonic has always been an unknown to which she was never really able to find answers from, and so much of her understanding of it is either limited or plainly false as it predates even modern depictions of the underworld. As such, Sonadora is very wary of the realm, seeing as she ultimately believes that if she ever ends up there, she will burn for eternity.  
  

SPOILER: Click to show

{Goals}

• Godhood: Considering herself as a superior being to all has naturally, over time, led Sonadora to believe that she intrinsically deserves to be referred to as a deity. However, to be considered as a deity and being a proper deity is two different things, and it is something that she wishes to correct in the near future. With her power and will to change the world, she aspires to overthrow the being known as the Soul King and become the Goddess of everything, the one above all that exists and has the eventual right to exist. Once she achieves this goal and consequently become a deity, there are several things which Sonadora wishes to accomplish in return.
  
  
• World of Hollows: There are currently no real worlds for Hollows to peacefully coexist with one another. Hueco Mundo, as it is now, is nothing more than a wasteland of which the only law that can be applied to it is the one of the fittest, a mere natural preconception which condemns Hollowkind to eternal suffering. The elimination of that pathetic land of misery and discourse is necessary for the creation of something better, something more that could allow the entirety of her kin to not only prevail, but also succeed in becoming greater as well.
  
  
• Redefinition of Her Kin: Hollows must feed upon Souls to survive. Hollows must eventually become mindless Gillian in order to become strong; if not, they must succumb to hunger and become beasts. Hollows must eventually be slain in order for the balance of the world to be respected. Ad vitam eternam. These natural laws seemingly directly ingrained within all Hollowkind are all things that Sonadora dearly wishes to eliminate. No being should be dictated or driven by hunger.
  
  
• New World Balance: Of course, to eliminate the hunger which plagues Hollowkind creates a problem, as they - much like the Shinigami themselves - are responsible in bringing balance to the realms. Without them, there would be too many Souls present in the world, and in so doing, these Souls would cause the world to eventually collapse. As such, redefining Hollowkind also requires a redefinition of the balance of the realms, something which Sonadora thinks about everyday.
  
  
• Destruction of Humanity: Once the balance of the realms has been redesigned, Humanity's role within the grand scheme of things will ultimately become pointless. Hollows would not be required to consume their Souls any longer, which would in turn make the soldiers of Gotei 13 and the bowmen of the Wandenreich obsolete in nature. With that mind, the only fate which would then await them at that point would be extinction. What point is there to be made in maintaining an obsolete race alive? None. There is no need for a cattle of which no one is forced to feed upon.
  
  
• Overcome Amnesia: And so, with all of these divine tasks set aside, there is only one other goal which Sonadora believes she must complete during her journey towards her ascension: the retrieval of her memory. There is much to be learned from the past that she has lost, and there also much to be taught from it. It may be a pointless endeavor that will lead her to nothing more than a collection of pointless visions, but even so, she shall persist in her attempts to find more about it all, for to forget is to be weak.
  

Alignment

Usually, it is normal for a typical Hollow to be a creature driven by chaos, as their purpose in life is only to consume haphazardly until the end of their existence. This cannot, however, properly describe a Stray Sonadora or one that has reached the classification of Adjuchas, for she is more so instead better described as a being of Neutral Evil. As hungry and uncaring for life as she may be like the rest of her kin, the nature of her ability compels her to seek solutions to her problems not in chaos, but rather in planning and strategy. She does not see good in the use of law and order at that stage in her Hollow evolution, and ultimately prefers to remain far away from conflict as many times as possible in order to ensure her survival. This selfishness prevents her from caring about the wrong in others, as she understands that a wrong can lead to a gain even if it is morally reprehensible. In a way, this allows her to cooperate with individuals with less-than-kind endeavors so long as they are beneficial to her in one way or another, though she will only take orders as mere suggestions more so than actual directions. If the aforementioned individuals become useless to her or their endeavors become meaningless, then she will refuse to abide to their demands any longer.

Over time as she becomes a Gillian, the Hollow's mind will naturally devolve into Chaotic Evil until her soul attains global ownership of its body once again. By that point, only hunger and hunger alone will drive her forward. She will not care for the pain and suffering that she may cause to whoever she may meet so long as her goals are met. If she is paired with another Gillian who does not wish her harm, she will mindlessly follow it towards their destination before they eventually bring themselves away from one another. In the case of meeting a lesser Gillian, however, she will potentially lash out and attack the Gillian in order to consume it and gain more souls to develop herself. No law or order can be powerful enough to bring her into submission while in this state, and no one could enslave her unless befitted with a particular ability capable of doing so even if she somehow is driven to battle a more powerful enemy.

Upon reaching the likes of the Vasto Lorde, a change will be felt within Sonadora. Rendered unable to worry about hunger any longer due to her overwhelming power preventing her from running out of prey, her alignment will turn towards the likes of Lawful Evilness as she sets out to accomplish her goals. No longer shackled by her craving for souls, she shall wish for overall peace and prosperity for the Hollow race, and accomplishing this goal will require her to commit deeds that she understands as being horrible, yet necessary. Celestial laws such as the presumed balance which holds the world in place shall be ignored, and with that in mind, so shall be the lives of Humans, Shinigami, Quincy and perhaps a few of her fellow Hollows should they ever defy her authority. This will be done through meticulous planning, calculated strategies and ruthless execution.

Overall Personality

There have been numerous recollections in the history of Human society detailing the lives of particular individuals. All of them, men and women alike, were all able to rise in the echelons of their respective communities in ways that made them appear substantially more powerful compared to their brethren. They were mere Humans devoid of spiritual power that could not do so much as survive against even the lowest of the magically-inclined denizens of Rukongai, and yet they were so powerful that they could shape their people as they see fit. Some build empires which rose further and further upward during their rule, others toppled nations and brought them under their control. There were a few who ruled with an iron fist proclaiming themselves as superior, while there were another group who instead insisted on creating a golden facade in which to hide the true nature of their rule. With this in mind, it would then be easy to assume many of these people were armed to the teeth, capable of dueling at least one man to the death without breaking a sweat. However, many of these people couldn't even lift a sword and instead simply preferred to use the pen or their words. The Hollow known as Soradora firmly resides among them.

As one of the rarer strategic minds of her brethren, Sonadora is a being driven by strategy and logic. Lead more so by her own goals rather than the hunger which fuels her monstrous core, she casually acts with calm and patience like a predator before prey, setting her attention onto her current objective as much as possible in order to accomplish it quickly and efficiently. The nature of the objective in question does not need to matter, as even the lowliest and ugliest of them all will be given her total dedication. It is rare that will she ever appear emotional before the presence of another being, as she prefers to maintain a semblance of a calm image around herself at all times, and it is rarer still that she will allow herself to become angry even in the most emotional of times, for to be too emotional is to be weak. This allows her to treat others with both apparent respect and a lack of care for their life, something which allows her to act ruthlessly without hesitation.

This latter fact is most notably showcased whenever she faces another being in combat, whether they be Hollow or else. Her opponent will most likely never be able to see her lose control of her own self in combat unless they employ a particular strategy deliberately made to make her do so. The patience that she holds in casual conversation and daily life follows her into battle, allowing her to act carefully and methodically with unforgiving execution. When challenged, she is not afraid to use her power to break the minds of any nearby individual to use them as either leverage or makeshift weaponry, even if this individual happens to be a child or an elder. She prefers to keep her hands clean and away from all bloodshed, though if necessary, she will not hesitate to take the chance to finish off an enemy with notable violence.

Subsequently, this dependence on using others to properly do battle with her enemies makes her an individual who sees social interactions as crucial. The formation of an allied force is something that is necessary for her meager frame, seeing as she is aware that her frail body will not bring her very far in combat. Even back when she was an Adjuchas, she could not be considered to be particularly powerful on her own. As such, she most often aims to make allies when the chance is given to her, especially when said allies are eager to befriend her or join her cause. Nevertheless, her wish for leadership and her own selfishness makes her unwilling to be treated as a mere servant or lower-ranked member of a group or society. Like many Hollows, her desire for independence from others compels her to never bow to anyone, even if the individual in question breaks ground and somehow gains her admiration. This most notably prevents her from seeing the good in the likes of the Arrancar, for example, or any existing pack of Hollows.

It is natural for one to believe this Hollow to be nothing more than yet another abomination of the dreaded realm of Hueco Mundo upon learning of the beast, though it was not always so. A long time ago, Sonadora's attitude was long thought to be somehow more ruthless and merciless compared to anyone else of her kin. For years, the other monsters which roamed the earth saw her as a monstrous figure, a legend which terrified both they, the Shinigami who hunted them and the Humans which found themselves all in-between. There were stories of her then which explained why that was, but the most of them were merely rumors shared within Hueco Mundo and were not explicitly accurate. It was only once she became Adjuchas that this anger stopped and was instead replaced by the individual that she is today, something born from the amnesia which plagued her transformation from Gillian to Adjuchas. Once this occurred, the bloodshed was replaced by self-questioning and analysis.

At times, Sonadora will vaguely recall the likes of her old Human self as blurry memories of anger and eventually ultimate suffering. She prefers not to discuss them with others as she oddly always feel very pained by the mere discussion of it, but whenever she is bound to do so, she describes the existence of a being whose happiness has been torn away by an entity that she can only believe to have been Human like herself. Once bright, she became dark by the shadows which neared her, and eventually, the dark consumed her in a bright flame. Due to this, the Hollow believes her current state to be the embers of that individual personified, a remnant designed to deliver a vengeance towards Humanity and, therefore, its divine protectors.

Fueled by this hatred she shares with all Hollows, she believes that the best way to achieve this vengeance is to first become powerful, then assemble the masses to act as one against all that oppose them. Through this she will create a world for Hollows, and once ridden of their dependence on Humanity, she shall exterminate every last one of them. It will take time, it will take effort, but one day, she shall achieve her eternal goal with both pride and glory, for she will never allow time to stop her from achieving this penultimate goal, and neither will she allow the Shinigami or the Quincy to stop her.

[ F I G H T I N G   S T Y L E ]

Sonadora is a fighter which, in essence, battles like any other Hollow. She does not value the likes of honor and virtue in battle, typically does not respect her opponent, and ideally is most often fueled by the idea of consuming her opponent's soul by the end of their mutual conflict in one way or another. However, unlike many of her kin, both her unimpressive physical abilities and the passive nature of her ability compels her to fight with utmost patience and strategy. As such, this makes this particular creature a notably-unusual foe that is not to be underestimated even by the most powerful of warriors.

Whenever faced with the prospect of violence, the Hollow will react differently depending on the classification tied to her current form:

SPOILER: Click to show

{Base}Sonadora's abrupt return to her Strayed form has not been kind to the attitude she once held in combat. Since her ability has tremendously regressed due to the diversion she has experienced, she now battles with a lot less bravery than before, as any mistakes could possibly lead her to suffer a terrible death. This prudence is held with any enemy, though is particularly notable whenever she faces a Quincy, for she is acutely aware of their prowess in long-range combat. She uses her fog sparingly and strategically, using it more so as camouflage and as a means to assert dominance over others rather than as a proper weapon, and will most often remain as far away from any threats as possible if alone. Because of this, she typically targets what she personally considers to be weak or plainly incapable of fighting her in the slightest such as low-grade Humans, regardless of the delicacy of their souls.

Unfortunately, there are times in which conflict is inevitable, and in these cases, she will attempt to fight the enemy the best she possibly can. She remains in the shadows, using her fog as a means to hide from the enemy, and attacks mainly with the use of her Daydreams. If it is possible to do so, she will most notably never engage the enemy in a proper physical battle until they are themselves very weak, for she knows that her frail body will not actually permit her to engage most targets at their full strength. It is only that one may be capable of witnessing Sonadora's bestial self, as she will make sure to finish off any weakened enemies with vicious lunges, rapid cuts and merciless bites to the upper chest and face. Disfigurement are both things that she will fully favor in order to swiftly void any of the target's primary senses, and once this is done, she will then proceed to kill the target as swiftly as she possibly can to devour its soul.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Gillian}A Gillian Sonadora does not really act any differently in comparison to any other Gillian. Like a majority of the beasts of her classification which reside within the Forest of Menos, she acts rather mindlessly and akin to a beast due to the exorbitant amount of souls residing within her bosom. This prevents her from actually preparing any sort of complex or exuberant strategy to any of her encounters, and instead forces her to act more recklessly, more specifically akin to a wild animal. When in search of prey, she hunts any who remain near her in an attempt to satiate her terrible hunger, and when she is not in search of any prey, she hunts all the same, for that is what a Gillian does and is forever cursed to do until they form as an Adjuchas.

Although she typically resides within Hueco Mundo, there will be times in which she will be attracted to the likes of the Living World to feast en-masse upon the souls of a certain area. In this case, she will attempt Kūmon to breach through the Garganta, and once completed, she will immediately attempt to swarm the area with the fog expelled from her body. Due to her sheer size, this often causes the area surrounding her to be immediately left blinded, causing confusion to arise in the local populace of souls and Humans alike before their inevitable demise as the Hollow then begins to rampage through the area. Buildings will be left damaged by her claws, and those which have the misfortune to be located beneath her will be crushed without any mercy or remorse. Those who are capable of surviving the onslaught are soon overrun by Daydreams, and with their minds kicking and screaming, they are forced to endure endless Nightmares.

The enlarged creature will at times, however, suddenly stop its rampage and remain still in a brief moment of clarity. These moments are rare and few in number, and most often occur when she does not face a powerful enemy that is preventing her from giving any attention to this moment, but will become more numerous over time as she power grows. If left unattended by any hostile contact, this moment will then be followed by an equally-brief moment of panic as the monster seemingly attempts to form into Adjuchas in a tantrum of destruction and bestial howling. Eventually, the struggle will stop and the Gillian will return to its usual business, though it is best for anyone to remain wary of the possibility of such tantrums of occurring.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Adjuchas}Confidence and a desire to strategize will return to Sonadora once she regains her self as an Adjuchas. By this point, the fact that she was capable of returning an amount of power similar to the one she once held prior to her encounter with Belair will allow her will allow her to take risks with more ease and less hesitation. No more will she evade targets who are bothersome to her, and no more will she deliberately attempt to only target low-grade Humans. She will still prefer to not involve herself in any form of melee combat due to her physical inferiority, and so she will typically still remain away with her fog so as to remain safe from harm, but she will be less hesitant to strike targets from up-close and personal via the use of swift claws and bites on all-four. She will combine Daydreams with melee attacks, and lunge towards targets which she believes to be the most important on the battlefield, such as those who specialize in providing medical care to their allies.

Additionally, with the evolution of her ability, the Hollow will now begin to bring the weakest living beings nearest to her position under her wing by turning them into Ascended. She will mainly use these Ascended as pawns, parts of grander plans to assert her power over an area or a section of a specific world. She will send Admirers across cities to commit various crimes and horrible deeds, and deliberately bring Worshipers and Emulators in combat to battle for her alongside her Daydreams as she grows stronger.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Vasto Lorde}As a Vasto Lorde, Sonadora's confidence will have risen to an exponential level, enough so to solidify her fighting style into something more concrete. Having now full access to the utmost potential of her ability, she will by then be capable of forming her own veritable army. Any living beings nearing her position could potentially be realigned as she sees fit, which is most typically observable in battle whenever something nears her position. A normal man could suddenly turn into a large Hollow during a battle, and a dog could become an inescapable nightmare willing to rip anything to shreds for its master. Nothing becomes safe, and it is in that reality that Sonadora will strive to become more powerful than any other being imaginable.

Nevertheless, there are times in which she will be forced to act alone. In those cases, recklessness is replaced with methodical and careful examination of the target before engaging. She acts arrogantly, believing herself to be much superior to any being who dares to challenge her in combat, but ultimately remains wary enough of her opponent's capabilities so as to not take unnecessary risks. All strategies are viable so long as they can guarantee the success of her goal, and everything is permitted in order to make sure these aforementioned strategies are successful, even the lowliest of actions imaginable. Daydreams become more overwhelming, Nightmares become increasingly dangerous, and the possibility of being converted into one of her servants become more real with each second.

The One Who Dreams

Fog is a natural phenomenon that is caused by the condensation of tiny water droplets suspended in the air of a certain area. In essence, it is mainly the formation of a cloud at a very low altitude most commonly referred to by scientists as an aerosol. There are many types of fog, including artificial fog created by pollution or man-made devices and the frozen kind which reside in very cold temperatures, but ultimately, all fog is composed of water in one form or another. It is often witnessed whenever a certain area happens to be very humid, and so is typically associated with locations that are nearing water or are mainly comprised of water, such as forests, rivers, and in more urban environments, docks and shipyards. Due to its appearance, souls across time and space have associated fog with the unknown, something which confuses them and renders something - whether it be an object or an individual - difficult to perceive from a far away distance. In a way, it is to be said that Sonadora's ability represents this concept fairly well.

Sonadora's fog, unlike normal fog, is not actually a natural phenomenon at all, but rather a supernatural event that occurs whenever she wishes it so. Composed of reiatsu, it is fundamentally a vaguely-cubic aerosol that is expelled from the minuscule holes that form the Hollow's skin pores. It follows her wherever she goes with her figure as its epicenter, and is typically very thick, enough so to render one's environment difficult to identify. When out of combat, the creature tends to keep the fog's area of coverage at its minimum to only allow optimal camouflage of her body, though she can extend this aforementioned area by a significant margin depending on the reiatsu at her disposal. She can also control the thickness of the fog, shape it around herself to make herself appear more threatening, and even focus it onto a certain being other than herself whenever necessary.

For centuries, many Shinigami of Gotei 13 responsible for the analysis of foreign targets have been baffled by this ability as a Stray or Adjuchas Sonadora prudently tended to only use it at its full potential whenever it was necessary. Because of this, it is unclear how many officers lost their lives simply attempting to study the Hollow as it rampaged throughout feudal Europe and modern Asia. However, thanks to the recent efforts of the Twelfth Division, the following numbers have been recorded in regards to both the size and visibility of the fog: 

Class	Maximum Size	Maximum Visibility
Vasto Lorde	100m	35m
Adjuchas	75m	30m
Gillian	50m	20m
Stray	25m	10m

The fog may not appear dangerous on its own if not used for stealth or infiltration. For all sense and purposes, it appears only as a supernatural replica of a true aerosol which can be notably dispersed by hot air. It renders an area damp and humid, and can be uncomfortable for those who experience its touch, but it is at best only bothersome in hindsight and not an actual threat. However, should one be sufficiently knowledgeable in the matter or quite simply perceptive enough to understand the unusual nature of the fog, they will eventually understand the gravity of their situation as they interact with the Hollow. More specifically, any who has the misfortune to be located within it will be considered to be within a state that the Hollow prefers to refer to as Embraced.

Those who are Embraced allow themselves to be susceptible to Sonadora's influence so long as they are within the fog. They alert Sonadora of their presence and of their general frame, allowing her to retrieve sensory information of what she may be facing. For example, if there is a squad of four Shinigami wandering in the fog composed of two warriors specialized in melee combat, one better suited for ranged combat and another who merely is there to offer medical aid, Sonadora will be able to identify which one is which by sensing the size of their body, their weapons and their Aura. Although the Hollow is not an impressive fighter and therefore could not use this information to hunt down powerful hostile targets by herself, she can use it to inform allies of their position which may be able to do so in her place.

Additionally, the targets in question will also become vulnerable to Daydreams. Daydreams are, in essence, attacks in the form of conjured entities that can be delivered from afar so long as Sonadora is aware of her targets' location. They can take any shape or form, and can change the appearance of the environment. However, they cannot actually deliver any physical harm to anything they touch, rendering them unable to break objects and interact with the environment in which they are apart of (the most common identifier being a lack of footprints created by a humanoid or beastly Daydream). Instead, they apply tiredness to the target. The more a Daydream touches a living target, the more mentally exhausted the target becomes until, eventually, they fall asleep, in which case Sonadora will be informed by her fog of their slumber. Once this is done, or if the target was already asleep in the fog, she can then apply to them a second property which replaces the previous Embraced state that was applied to them in the fog. This property is identified as Slumbered.

Any target which becomes Slumbered enters a catatonic state that renders their body foggy as their mind becomes separated from reality to reach the Garden of Eden, Sonadora's very own dream world. So long as they remain in this state, they cannot interact with or receive interaction from any who remain within the true world, for their entire being becomes a vaporous imprint that cannot be even so much as damaged. Unless the fog which surrounds them is forcefully removed from the area by an outside entity, they cannot be removed from this state. While they are in this state, the target will experience one of the following fantasies that will both feel and be perceived as real:

• Dream: A supportive vision which typically fills the target's mind with happiness and joy. It can take any form, but generally tends to be encouraging enough to push the target towards victory. Usually, a Dream will demand one to push themselves beyond their normal capabilities. This is done by filling them with reiatsu that grants them beneficial power, such as additional strength and speed, before bringing them back to the real world. A Dream can be applied to any target, though they will generally only be given to servants or allies in need that are themselves willing to become Slumbered in order to experience it.
  
  
• Nightmare: An aggressive delusion which aims to completely overwhelm the mind of the target with inescapable fear and misery. It can take any form, but generally tends to correspond to the target's Fears. Nightmares, in comparison to Dreams, appear much more real and can cause tremendous physical and psychological harm to a target. Any damage received in a Nightmare will also be applied outside of it, meaning that if one dies in a Nightmare, they will also die in the real world.
  

Although Sonadora's presence is not necessarily required within these fantasies, she can personally attribute the Slumbered state to herself in order to make sure the target experiences a better Dream or a worse Nightmare. Unlike those affected by the property, she can remove this state from herself at any time and simply return to the real world. While her mind is manifested within her fantasy, she is to be considered both twice as powerful as her awakened self and a step above her current Class. Attacks coming from her are generally more powerful as a result of this, and as such, she is thus typically considered much more powerful whenever she is in this state. Countless Shinigami have lost their lives attempting to battle her in a Nightmare and countless innocent Humans lost their minds attempting to merely survive them. Worse yet, there are a few of the latter who learned of the Hollow's truest potential.

If the Slumbered creature ever wishes to do so, she can decide to inject a being with an amount of her Hollow reiatsu during a Nightmare once she becomes an Adjuchas. The being in question must have been utterly beaten by the Hollow to the point of surrender, or rendered so broken that they cannot resist her will any further. Due to the corruptive nature of her kin's energy, this can change the target to a varying degree, leaving them in a permanent Ascended state of which only the first two stages can be cured by surgeons by manually removing the Hollow reiatsu from the target's soul. The Ascended are beings under the influence of Sonadora who communicate with her in their sleep when she is near. They cannot be Quincy or any other race which suffer from poisoning when exposed to Hollow reiatsu, and although they can be Hollows, the vast majority of them are either Shinigami or Humans. There are three types of Ascended individuals, from the least to the most powerful:

1. Admirer: An individual whose mind has been affected by Sonadora's reiatsu to a point that they are influenced by her will. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 4. Unless she purposefully wishes it to be as such, they cannot remember meeting the Hollow in their Nightmare. They are driven by the creature to commit acts of violence and murder, with the most of them being specifically fueled by a certain emotion such as anger or a wish for retribution. The most of them understand that something is wrong and that something must be done about it, but they cannot explain what that wrong is and have no real solution to their problem. If Sonadora wishes it so, Admirers can wield weapons which contain parts of her reiatsu in order to spread her reiatsu further and create more Admirers. Although this amount of reiatsu is small and perhaps inconsequential for some, this can cause an eventual degeneration of the soul and, in some particular cases, Hollowfication.
   
   
2. Worshiper: An individual whose mind has been affected by Sonadora's reiatsu alongside their body. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 3. Unlike Admirers, Worshipers remember their meeting with the Hollow. They see her as the one who saved them from their terrible Nightmare and so wishes to serve her as much as they possibly can. Since their soul has been more corrupted by the foreign reiatsu, their bodies enter a minor metamorphosis depending on Sonadora's wishes. For instance, those who wish to act as her warriors become bulkier, while those who instead ask to act as her envoys become faster and nimbler. However, the power diminishes their appearance into something less savory, making them appear crooked and unstable. This mainly takes the form of a loss of hair, bulged muscles too big to be called natural, the sharpening of teeth and nails into fangs and claws, and the formation of a larger jaw than normal. Even so, they do not see what is wrong with them and deliberately push away anyone who attempts to heal them in one way or another. In their eyes, if they cannot serve Sonadora, then they do not deserve to live.
   
   
3. Emulator: An individual whose mind and body both have been so corrupted by Sonadora's reiatsu that they are starting to transform into Hollows. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 2. If they are a normal Human, their physical body has long since crumbled, unable to bear the corruption any longer, and they are starting to become full-fledged Hollows at an accelerated pace due to increased speed of their Chain of Fate's destruction. By this point, most Emulators have lost their minds entirely aside from any exceptions Sonadora wishes to create, and the moments which precede the complete disintegration of their chain is marked by insanity and utter dedication to their "Goddess". They barely act with any coherence or meaning and are to be considered better off dead than alive, for once they become Hollows, they immediately become subservient to Sonadora and do not act independently any longer. Although they are Hollows in function, the most of them are designed to accomplish a specific goal for Sonadora. For example, an Emulator can be specifically transformed into a defensive Hollow in order to defend her.

Fog Techniques

SPOILER: Click to show

{Holy Veil}
Technique Name: Holy Veil

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Fog Manipulation

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

Technique Description and Effects

A basic technique which represents Sonadora's control over her primordial ability. The creature allows minuscule pores present all over her skin to open, causing reiatsu formed in her body to be driven out in the form of a thick fog using her as its epicenter. The fog in question is white in appearance, draping the area in a veil of white that renders everything surrounding a living being difficult to perceive. From afar, it appears as a vaguely-cubic aerosol that is otherwise physically imperceptible from its natural counterpart. Its effects are in hindsight also identical to the latter's, rendering any environment it is present in damp and humid. Should a living being be present in this fog, the Embraced state will be applied to their soul. This allows Sonadora to sense their position in the fog by detecting the shape of the aerosol around the bodies of her targets, permitting her to identify what she may be facing depending on the information available to her, and employ the use of Daydreams against them in order to apply the Slumbered state to their soul. 

Although its main supernatural use stops there, the fog can also be utilized in a more advanced fashion by the Hollow should it possess the mastery to do so, notably by using it as a form of camouflage or intimidation. For instance, with focus, she can bring the fog to only drape her body and make herself appear grander than she is with it. Additionally, this same focus can also allow her to forcibly push the epicenter of the fog away from herself for means of distraction or offense.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Considering that the fog is composed of Sonadora's own reiatsu, it can be difficult for the creature to keep it active in a certain area for a long period of time. Unless the fog is only delimited to the very pores of her skin, simply deciding to cover an area with it requires an initial amount of reiatsu to be spent depending on her Class. Once this value is spent, half of that value must then be spent again three posts later in order to maintain the fog. The fog's size and the range of visibility available to a being located within it are also rather limited as the both of these factors are as well delimited by the Hollow's Class. The values in question can be seen below:

Class	Maximum Size	Maximum Visibility
Vasto Lorde	100m	35m
Adjuchas	75m	30m
Gillian	50m	20m
Stray	25m	10m

The fog is also not invincible. Like any other normal fog, it can be pushed away by a large amount of hot air colliding with it so long as the air in question is also made with or simply affected by one's reiatsu. This rids any target which was previously located within it of the Embraced or Slumbered state if they are successful, removing Sonadora's influence upon their soul.

{Divine Veil}
Technique Name: Divine Veil

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Fog Empowerment

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-3

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 500 (Vasto Lorde), 150 (Adjuchas)

Technique Description and Effects

A direct empowerment of Sonadora's primordial ability. The creature collects the reiatsu onto a specific portion of her body before unleashing an absurd amount of her fog towards a target in a brief amount of time, something which often appears in hindsight as an explosion. Due to the sheer amount of reiatsu present within this fog, this transforms it into one of the following Divine Veils:

• Mirage of Eden: A collection of reiatsu within Sonadora which was violently expunged from all of her pores at once, causing it to appear as a massive fog that goes beyond the limits delimited by her Class. It is said that it is roughly about thrice as large in size and thrice as difficult to perceive what's inside of it. This fog lasts for a total of four posts before it eventually dissipates into nothingness, and cannot be maintained.
  
  
• Apple of Eden: A collection of reiatsu within Sonadora which was violently expunged from the pores of a single part of her body, causing it to first appear as a ball of condensed fog. It can appear anywhere on her body, but it is most often deployed via the hands or feet. When it is so, it can be held like an object by the creature before either throwing it in a certain direction or directly hitting a target with it. In any case, it will unleash an extremely-potent fog that can immediately cause a living being 5m around the point of impact to be Slumbered. Unlike a Holy Veil, the fog created by the Apple of Eden applies a Slumbered state that cannot be removed at all from the target, even when they are outside of the Holy Veil, for a duration of four posts.
  

Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Because of the sheer amount of reiatsu required in order to create a Divine Veil in the first place, this technique can be quite taxing to the creature, and so it is typically preferred to only use this in times of need when one is completely unaware of its existence. Additionally, it is easy to differentiate a Mirage of Eden from a normal Holy Veil due to their color: the first is represented by a dark silver while the other is instead of a purer white. This can cause enemies located within it to immediately acknowledge this matter and distance themselves from it.

Daydream Techniques

Note: Daydreams are constructs which cause Fatigue rather than physical damage. Fatigue represents a character's mental exhaustion and their ability to resist Sonadora's Daydreams. When they are hit by a Daydream, this stat goes up depending on the power of the Daydream and the character's main Offensive Stat. If the latter is two times superior to Sonadora's, the Daydream's power is reduced by 50%, while the contrary instead grants 50% more power to the Daydream. Whatever their race may be, each character possesses a Fatigue stat of 0. Once this stat reaches its maximum limit of 150, the character falls asleep. This limit is increased for each point put into the Strength of Will skill up to a maximum of 250.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Word of God}
Technique Name: Word of God

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Single Daydream

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Decree), 40 (Order), 15 (Command), 10 (Name)

Technique Description and Effects

One of Sonadora's simplest Daydreams that can be conveyed to those Embraced by the fog. The creature conjures an obstacle around the target's vicinity meant to strike it from any direction. For the purpose of stealth and intimidation, these obstacles often take the form of a rather-mundane object located within the environment which surrounds the target. These include falling construction equipment, electrical wires detaching themselves from nearby power lines, or sewage manholes suddenly being launched towards the target's direction due to an abrupt gas leak. The size of the object in question depends on the power of the Word, as seen below:

• Decree: Immense objects (planes, office buildings, electrical pylons, etc.)   |   80 Fatigue
  
• Order: Large objects (trucks, suburb homes, power generators, etc.)        |   60 Fatigue
  
• Command: Medium-sized objects (cars, furniture, etc.)                             |   40 Fatigue
  
• Name: Small objects (toys, kitchenware, fragments of glass, etc.)             |   20 Fatigue
  

Should the Hollow will it so, the Word of God can remain within the fog for more than just a single post, though an amount of reiatsu equal to the one that has been used to conjure it is required to be spent per additional post in order to do so. If this cannot be done, the Daydream will dissipate once a post has passed or it has hit the target, conveying mental exhaustion to its soul.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Like any Daydream, a Word of God is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion. It cannot be changed once it has been conjured, and it cannot be lengthened or rendered smaller by any means after the fact. Additionally, the more powerful a Word of God is, the more reiatsu Sonadora will need in order to execute it, so much so that the very potency of the reiatsu currently at her disposal may be unavailable until she reaches a higher stage of the Hollow evolutionary process. This reflects in the fact that she can only start casting a Command as a Gillian, an Order as an Adjuchas, and a Decree as a Vasto Lorde.

{Message of God}
Technique Name: Message of God

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Mass Daydream

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-5

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 20 (Gillian)

Technique Description and Effects

A Daydream composed by Sonadora which goes beyond the Word of God. The creature conjures a Daydream that is powerful enough to affect the environment of the target itself, submitting its primordial appearance to her will in order to use it against the target. Most of these illusions go beyond the mundane to instead be much stranger in appearance, such as spikes jutting suddenly from nearby walls, hands appearing from the ground to grab the target, or street lights coming to life in an attempt to bite the target. Just like Words of God, the size of the area affected by a Message of God will depend on its power, as seen below:

• Punishment: 60m  |  50 Fatigue
  
• Verdict: 40m          |  30 Fatigue
  
• Phrase: 20m          |  15 Fatigue
  

Should the Hollow will it so, the Message of God can remain within the fog for more than just a single post, though an amount of reiatsu equal to the one that has been used to conjure it is required to be spent per additional post in order to do so. If this cannot be done, the Daydream will dissipate once a post has passed or it has hit the target, conveying mental exhaustion to its soul.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Like any Daydream, a Message of God is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion. It cannot be changed once it has been conjured, and it cannot be lengthened or rendered smaller by any means after the fact. Additionally, the more powerful a Word of God is, the more reiatsu Sonadora will need in order to execute it, so much so that the very potency of the reiatsu currently at her disposal may be unavailable until she reaches a higher stage of the Hollow evolutionary process.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Messenger of God}
Technique Name: Messenger of God

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Daydream Being

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (50% stats), 80 (25% stats), 10 (no stats)

Technique Description and Effects

The most powerful Daydream that Sonadora can ever conjure with the extent of her ability. The creature conjures what it refers to as a Messenger of God, the equivalent of a puppet at her disposal. It possesses no thoughts or free will, and bends itself to all the commands that the Hollow gives to it. Without command, they are devoid of motion. The totality of its appearance can be decided by Sonadora altogether, which can allow them to appear as a member of any race, even mindless animals. This, for instance, allows them to appear as mere bystanders during battle or as a clone of a target.

The primary purpose of a Messenger of God is to provide trickery and confusion on a battlefield. They are to be used as decoys or as mere elements of the environment to distract targets from danger. Due to this, they are rather weak and, if stricken, can be easily defeated. However, alternatively, a Messenger can also be blessed with a fraction of Sonadora's power in order to act as a proper weapon at her disposal once the Hollow becomes an Adjuchas. These Messengers possess either a quarter of the Hollow's stats, and can fight on her behalf for at least three posts before she needs to spend any more reiatsu to maintain them on the field. Once she reaches the state of Vasto Lorde, she will be able to create Messengers possessing half of her stats.

All attacks received from a Messenger of God applies 50 Fatigue to a target if they possess half of Sonadora's stats. Otherwise, they instead apply 25 Fatigue.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Despite how convincing it may seem, the appearance of a Messenger of God is not perfect, as there are many signs within it which can reveal its true nature to targets. Like any Daydream, it is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion, meaning that it cannot actually have any effect on the environment, no matter how many times they may attempt to damage it. This includes Messengers which happen to possess weaponry such as Zanpakuto, Fullbring, Dolls, fangs or claws. They leave no fingerprints or footprints, cannot apply pressure to an object surrounding them, and cannot be affected by something like snow or rain. Additionally, they are also incapable of executing ranged attacks as they must explicitly hit the target with a melee attack in order to cause any exhaustion to it. Any ranged attack caused by them is only an illusion and cannot be treated as real.

Dream Techniques

SPOILER: Click to show

{Seal of Salvation}
Technique Name: Seal of Salvation

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Unique Stat Boost

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

Technique Description and Effects

A Dream that Sonadora can conjure effortlessly to a Slumbered target. The Seal of Salvation is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Likes which is tasked to fill them with happiness and a wish to become better. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower one of the target's main stats, which can be any of the Hollow's choosing. The maximum efficiency of this empowerment is dictated by Sonadora's Class, as seen below:

• Vasto Lorde: 50% boost for three posts
  
• Adjuchas: 35% boost for two posts
  
• Gillian: 20% boost for two posts
  
• Stray: 10% boost for two posts
  

If Judgement Call has been used prior to the creation of the vision, the latter's boost is doubled and lasts for one more post.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

A Dream lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. The Seal of Salvation is no exception to that rule. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Salvation due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then none of their stats will be raised.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Seal of Redemption}
Technique Name: Seal of Redemption

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Dual Stat Boost

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-4

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas)

Technique Description and Effects

An improved version of the Seal of Salvation that Sonadora can construct for a Slumbered target. The Seal of Redemption is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Likes in order to fill them with happiness and a wish to become better. Compared to the vision its predecessor applies, this vision is more inspired and alluring for the target. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower a section of the target's stats, which can be any of the Hollow's choosing: Physical, Spiritual or Sensory. The maximum efficiency of this empowerment is dictated by Sonadora's Class, as seen below:

• Vasto Lorde: 25% boost for three posts
  
• Adjuchas: 15% boost for two posts
  

If Judgement Call has been used prior to the creation of the vision, the latter's boost is doubled and lasts for one more post.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Like the Seal of Salvation, the Seal of Redemption is also no exception to the rule of Dreams. A Dream lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Redemption due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then none of their stats will be raised.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Seal of Liberation}
Technique Name: Seal of Liberation

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Class Boost

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 1000

Technique Description and Effects

The most powerful Dream Sonadora can attribute to a Slumbered target. The Seal of Liberation is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Goals in order to fill them with the ultimate desire to become better. The vision in question is designed to be exceptionally-inspiring, typically resembling a future reality that may or may not become true. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower a target sufficiently enough for it to take a step forward in their natural evolution, so much so that they are to be treated a Class superior to their own for the next two posts.

If Judgement Call has been used prior to the creation of the vision, this effect lasts for one more post.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

The Seal of Liberation is one of the most exhausting Dreams to apply to a target, and so requires not only utmost concentration, but also correct decision-making. Depending on the circumstances at hand, bringing this Dream to a target may either be the best course of action or the absolute worst thing that could be done. For example, bringing a being from Class 8 to Class 7 is not necessarily a bright idea. It is also fundamentally impossible to bring a Class 1 target to Class 0 with this Dream, as the power required to do so is not something that can be so easily conjured.

This Dream also follows the general rule of Dreams like any other. It lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Liberation due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then their Class shall not be raised.

Nightmare Techniques

{Garden of Eden}
Technique Name: Garden of Eden

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Nightmare World Creation

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 500 (Apocalypse), 100 (Genesis)

Technique Description and Effects

The construction of a Nightmare to be bestowed to a Slumbered target's mind. The Garden of Eden is from which all Nightmares come from. It is the realm which is reserved to all hostile targets which have fallen asleep while fighting Sonadora, and so can harbor more than a single target for a total of six posts. As a supernatural world which can only be accessed while Slumbered, it primarily takes the form of an environment morphed by the target's Fears, with its goal being either to torment a target into submission or outright killing them. There are two types of Nightmares that can be generated by the Garden of Eden:

• Apocalypse: A variable Nightmare that can be generated by an ascended Sonadora which has become either an Adjuchas or a Vasto Lorde. Apocalypse worlds are ever-changing. They never seem to be right in nature and appear to have a literal mind of their own. Land becomes water, water becomes land, the sky bleeds and the cloud become stone. Nothing seems to make sense in these worlds, almost as if no laws apply, and it is in this chaos that these worlds strive in their madness inducement and killing intent.
  
  
• Genesis: A static Nightmare that can be generated by Sonadora while she is a Stray or a Gillian. Genesis worlds, unlike Apocalypse worlds, are static in the sense that they do not change. They are fixed, immobile, and are tasked to house the Slumbered until they succumb to death or madness. In order to fulfill this goal, they will typically possess dangerous elements such as various traps to harm the target.

If Judgement Call has been used prior to the creation of either of these worlds, they become much more dangerous in nature, seeing as the Hollow has direct control over every single one of their elements. Although this control is more subdued in Genesis worlds, seeing as she can mainly only control the traps in question in them, it is much more potent in Apocalypse worlds as she can downright shape the world as she sees fit. In a way, in either of them, she is to be considered a temporary God for as long as she remains within it.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Nightmares can only affect those that are Slumbered, meaning the ones that have been driven asleep by Sonadora's Daydreams or were already asleep to begin within the fog. So long as the target is only Embraced or plainly outside of the fog, it is fundamentally impossible for the Hollow to create them. If the Slumbered state is removed from their being at any point in time, they will be removed from the Garden of Eden and returned to the real world. A target can decide to break out of the Nightmare at any point in time if they possess a Strength of Will or a Calm Mind of 2 for a reiatsu fee depending on the type of world generated by the Garden. If it is a Genesis world, it will cost 500 reiatsu to remove the Slumbered state from themselves, while it will instead cost 2000 reiatsu if it is an Apocalypse world. This fee is respectively reduced to 250 and 1000 if the skill in question is at 3, and if it is at 4, they will respectively be reduced to 100 and 500.

{Fallen Angel}
Technique Name: Fallen Angel

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Trauma Manifestation

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 400 (King), 80 (Duke), 30 (Prince)

Technique Description and Effects

The summoning of a being meant to torment the Slumbered target. Fallen Angels are creations of Sonadora which are meant to act as guards of the Garden of Eden. Their primordial task is to harm those which are condemned to the Garden, whether it be through mental or physical means. In order to complete this task, they take forms conforming to a target's Fears. They can be simple Humans which gravely terrorize the targets or, in the most intense of cases, abominable personifications of a concept or idea. These beings are to be categorized as such:

• King: The most powerful Fallen Angel that can be summoned by Sonadora after her ascension to Adjuchas. Kings are notable in the fact that they are amorphous. Their appearance is not entirely set in stone, almost as if it is always in question, and so their flesh often becomes a confusion of muscle and bone that appears otherworldly, alien. The abilities which they possess renders them powerful enough to be considered as a maximal Class 2, Non-Typed being with 1000 SP at their statistical disposition.
  
  
• Duke: A stronger Fallen Angel which can be summoned by a Gillian Sonadora. Dukes possess a form that is slightly more intimidating in aspect. They will always have something that makes them more fearsome than a Prince, whether it be a particular Aura or a physical attribute of themselves. Unlike their lesser brethren, they possess a minor ability which renders them a combatant capable of being treated as a maximal Class 4 being, Non-Typed being with 500 SP at their statistical disposition.
  
  
• Prince: A lesser Fallen Angel which can be summoned by a Stray Sonadora. Princes are beings which mainly are humanoid in nature, and if not humanoid, they instead are represented by smaller animals such as dogs or cats. They are purely physical beings devoid of any special abilities, and as such, they are to be considered as a combatant of a maximal Class of 6, Non-Typed being with 300 SP at their statistical disposition.
  

All Fallen Angels exhume an aspect around them that provokes fear in the hearts of nearby Slumbered, enough so for them to be rather difficult to fight. They are not their Goddess, but they are more than enough to break the minds of those unable to resist them. Should Sonadora be present near them via the use of Judgement Call, she can imbue them with additional power to make them more fearsome, making them a Class stronger than they should be.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Since they are part of the Garden of Eden, Fallen Angels cannot actually be used outside of Nightmares, meaning that they are useless against those who are not Slumbered. They can be killed like any other physical entity should someone be strong enough to face them, and once they are dead, no other Fallen Angel can replace them except one of their stronger brethren until the end of the Nightmare. For example, if a Prince dies, they can only be replaced by a Duke or a King. Additionally, due to their reliance on terror, those who possess a Lack of Fear skill can actively reduce their Class by simply resisting their fear inducement. A Lack of Fear of 2 reduces a Fallen Angel's Class by 1, one of 3 reduces it by 2, and one of 4 reduces it by 3. Since their class cannot be higher than Sonadora's own, this can practically turn their effectiveness into ashes.

{Sacred Shapes}
Technique Name: Sacred Shapes

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Shapeshift

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

Technique Description and Effects

The shaping of Sonadora's own body within a Nightmare. As long as she is present within the Garden of Eden via Judgement Call, Sonadora is allowed to shape her body as much as the Nightmare itself as long as she possesses the will and the energy to do so. This shaping can be as simple as taking the appearance of a Human or animal, or as complex as becoming an outright celestial abomination the size of her Gillian self. The potency of this technique solely depends on her Class, as seen below:

• Vasto Lorde: Alien transformations (Enormous objects, Eldtrich creatures, etc.)
  
• Adjuchas: Complex transformations (Large object, giant animal, etc.)
  
• Gillian: Moderate transformations (Object, large animal, etc.)
  
• Stray: Simple transformations (Human, Soul, small animal, etc.)
  

Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Although this is a technique that is rather simple in execution, the complexity of the shapeshifting can easily lead to an exorbitant spending of reiatsu, seeing as each transformation requires the initial amount of reiatsu to be used. The Hollow's original form also counts as a transformation, meaning that if too much reiatsu is spent, then Sonadora may be unable to return to it so long as she remains within the Nightmare. Additionally, this technique cannot be used outside of Nightmares or before activating Judgement Call.

{Heaven on Earth}
Technique Name: Heaven on Earth

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Reality Intrusion

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 500/post (duration), 250/25m (AoE expansion)

Technique Description and Effects

The act of bringing Nightmares to reality. With the advent of her power, Sonadora realizes that she can bring about a Nightmare into the real world by changing the property of her fog in a certain area, causing it to act as a rift spreading the likeness of the Garden of Eden. In other words, in her own twisted fantasy, the creature brings Heaven on Earth. This rift is initially 25m in size, though can be expanded if further reiatsu is spent to create it. While this is in effect, the Hollow is allowed to use all of her Nightmare techniques against any targets that are not Slumbered. All of her techniques must also be treated as being under the effects of Judgement Call while this is being done.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

So long as the Garden of Eden is located within the real world via Heaven on Earth, all targets within the fog are ridden of the Slumbered state and instead become Embraced once more. Although Daydreams are not inaccessible during this time, they are unable to convey the Slumbered state any longer until the effects of Heaven on Earth come to an end. This practically disables Sonadora's ability to support allies with her Dreams. Additionally, since this expansion of the Garden of Eden is produced by the fog, it can be dispersed similarly to it through the use of a large amount of hot air.

Ascension Techniques

Note: Should a PC be Ascended and abandoned by its owner after the successful execution of the following techniques during a DE thread, they will automatically become NPCs under Sonadora's control.

{Celestial Blessing}
Technique Name: Celestial Blessing

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Admirer Creation

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 4

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250 (Armed), 100 (Unarmed)

Technique Description and Effects

The beginning of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with an increased amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into an Admirer, which is the first classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Admirers are among the least powerful Ascended under Sonadora's control. In hindsight, they appear to be normal without any physical attributes that makes them stand out; however, they can be driven by the creature to commit terrible acts of violence and hatred towards those that are unfortunate enough to be near them. Although they are somewhat aware that something is wrong about their state of being and that something must be done to rectify this problem, they are unable to currently assert what that aforementioned problem on their own, seeing as they are unable to recall their last meeting with Sonadora.

As the weakest of the Ascended, Admirers will mostly fight bare-handed or with a normal weapon, though they will at times wield special weaponry that allows them to fight in battle. These specific weapons were accursed by the Hollow during their sleep, infected by their reiatsu almost as much as their owner's very minds. This practically allows Admirers to spread the Hollow's reiatsu to awoken targets to create more of themselves should they be Slumbered, and in some profound long-term cases, even Hollowfication.

All Admirer NPCs must be considered a Class above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Admirer PCs are exempted from this boost.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

There are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:

1. The target must be Slumbered. No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to create an Ascended while the target is awake.
   
   
2. The target must not be from a race which suffers from poisoning upon being exposed to Hollow reiatsu, such as Quincy.
   
   
3. The target must possess a Class equal or inferior to Sonadora's; if not, they will effortlessly resist her reiatsu with minor discomfort.
   
   
4. The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via Judgement Call while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is two units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.
   
   
5. The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unable to fight any longer. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into an Admirer, after which the only way the target will be able to rid themselves of the condition will be to either rid their soul of the Hollow reiatsu in some way or another, or meet someone capable of doing the same. On PCs, this effect is temporary if it was applied during an NDE or DP thread unless the owner of the PCs agree for it to be permanent, only lasting for the entirety of the thread before their unique will can allow them to shake it off. Moreover, if they are near Sonadora while they are an Admirer, they can resist her orders for two posts so long as they possess a Strength of Will of 1. This resistance is upgraded by a post each time they raise their Strength of Will until it has reached 4, in which case they can effortlessly resist all of her orders until treatment.

{Celestial Benediction}
Technique Name: Celestial Benediction

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Worshiper Creation

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 3

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 500

Technique Description and Effects

The middle of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with a notable amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into a Worshiper, which is the second classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Worshipers are beings which have been corrupted enough by the reiatsu to start changing both in mind and body. They are mentally unwell, proclaiming themselves as servants of the Hollow that will follow her without question, and typically are very hostile to anyone who they may believe to be against their master's wishes. Even in appearance, they appear crooked and unstable as their bodies enter a sort of metamorphosis of Sonadora's choosing from  the list below:

• Crusader: A large Worshiper which are typically characterized by a loud voice, and an excess of muscle tissue that makes them appear bulky and perhaps bloated. Compared to normal Humans, their upper body is much larger than their lower body, which makes them appear like an overgrown mutant among the general civilian populace. Due to this, they are strong, able to destroy defenses with ease. A larger jaw is especially prominent within this type.
  
  
• Pilgrim: A nimble Worshiper which is more so identified by its thinner frame and excessively-sized nails that are as sharp as blades. Their lower bodies are prominent due to leg muscle growth which allows them to reach faster speeds, and they generally appear twitchy, as though they almost cannot handle their own reflexes. Long hair is especially prominent within this type.
  
  
• Priest: A small Worshiper which is more so identified by its larger eyes and head, both signs of higher intellect. Despite their upper and lower bodies being generally unimpressive in stature, the knowledge that they have seemingly acquired from their transformation makes them more capable of casting spells and magic. If they do not have access to those things, they instead appear more accurate due to their strange bloodshot eyes.
  
  
• Devotee: A basic Worshiper who possesses lesser attributes from all of its brethren while also looking the most Human. They can easily blend in crowds and appear normal despite their strange and alien beliefs, but they can also defend themselves in a fight very well if need be. Despite this, they prefer to stick close to their brethren and follow their directives whenever they do battle.
  

All Worshiper NPCs must be considered two Classes above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Worshiper PCs are exempted from this boost. Additionally, this technique can be used on an Admirer to transform them into a Worshiper.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Like the Celestial Blessing, there are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:

1. The target must not have been transformed into an Admirer within the same thread prior to this further Ascension. If the target is an NPC, this condition can be ignored.
   
   
2. The target must be Slumbered. No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to create an Ascended while the target is awake.
   
   
3. The target must not be from a race which suffers from poisoning upon being exposed to Hollow reiatsu, such as Quincy.
   
   
4. The target must possess a Class equal or inferior to Sonadora's; if not, they will effortlessly resist her reiatsu with minor discomfort.
   
   
5. The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via Judgement Call while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is three units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.
   
   
6. The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unable to fight any longer. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into a Worshiper, after which the only way the target will be able to rid themselves of the condition will be to meet someone capable of ridding their soul of the Hollow reiatsu in some way or another. On PCs, this effect is temporary if it was applied during an NDE or DP thread unless the owner of the PCs agree for it to be permanent, only lasting for the entirety of the thread before their unique will can allow them and their bodies to shake it off. Moreover, they can resist Sonadora's influence on their mind for two posts so long as they possess a Strength of Will of 2. This resistance is upgraded by a post each time they raise their Strength of Will until it has reached 4, in which case they can effortlessly resist all of her orders until treatment, though their body remains deformed in the meanwhile.

{Celestial Absolution}
Technique Name: Celestial Absolution

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Emulator Creation

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 2 (on NPCs), 1 (on PCs)

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 1000

Technique Description and Effects

What one would consider to be the final stage of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with an impressive amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into an Emulator, which is the final classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Emulators are, in essence, Worshipers that have been so infected by the creature's reiatsu that their souls is starting to be overtaken by it, causing their bodies to crumble from their energy and their Souls to start transforming into Hollows. This transformation, unless Sonadora especially wills it so, breaks their minds entirely into an insane mess of incoherent preaching and dedication to what they now believe to be their ultimate deity. Like Worshipers, they too possess many variants that their creator can choose to transform them into:

• Throne: Especially large Emulators that were specifically designed to harbor immense physical strength. They are slow and clumsy, beast-like, but their bulky bodies allow them to destroy a great amount of things in their way with a swipe of the hand while also serving as resistant shields for their fellow kin.
  
  
• Cherubim: An Emulator granted the ability to reach great speed and velocity. Their bodies are slim and insect in nature, with wings protruding from their back. They possess the sharpest fangs and claws among all of the Emulators, allowing them to dissect and devour Souls the fastest among them as well.
  
  
• Seraphim: Magically-inclined Emulators which are pudgy and toad-like in nature. They are small and seemingly insignificant, though they possess a shocking amount of knowledge and potency in the magical arts. Their Ceros are the most impressive among the entirety of the Emulators, so much so that they can be more destructive than Thrones if let be.
  
  
• Angel: A general Emulator with no significant purpose. Among the Emulators, they are the most "normal" Hollow, as normal as a Hollow could ever possibly be. Most Angels typically act as minions for their brethren and are generally even-more mindless than them, acting more like animals than any of them.
  

All Emulator NPCs must be considered three Classes above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Emulator PCs are exempted from this boost. Half of the souls consumed by Emulators under Sonadora's control are automatically absorbed by her being when she is near them.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

As to be expected, there are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:

1. The target must have already been transformed into a Worshiper prior to this further Ascension.
   
   
2. The target must not have been transformed into a Worshiper within the same thread prior to this further Ascension. If the target is an NPC, this condition can be ignored.
   
   
3. The target must be Slumbered. Even so far into the Ascension process, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to complete this aforementioned process while the target is awake.
   
   
4. The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via Judgement Call while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is four units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.
   
   
5. The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unwilling to fight her. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.
   
   

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into an Emulator, after which the target will forever remain under Sonadora's subservience as a Hollow. By that point, it is impossible for a PC to simply shake off the effects of this technique, and so this technique can only be usable on PCs during DE threads. A Strength of Will of 4 will nevertheless allow them to break from her influence, though they will remain as Hollows until they die or their state is somehow reversed to its origin.

Other Techniques

{Judgement Call}
Technique Name: Judgement Call

Technique Type: Custom Hollow Technique | Self-Affliction

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow

Class: 1-7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 250/post (Vasto Lorde), 40/post (Adjuchas), 20/post (Gillian), 10/post (Stray)

Technique Description and Effects

A self-affliction meant to lead Sonadora to greater power within her realm. The creature closes the eyes behind her mask before forcefully bringing herself into Slumber, which allows her spirit to leave her body via the fog surrounding her. Once this is done, she can directly invade a Slumbered target's Dream or Nightmare by moving her spirit directly into the target's foggy self. If this was a successful endeavor, all of Sonadora's stats doubles and she is to be considered a Class above her current one so long as she remains within the fantasy that she has created for the target. Should she ever consider it to be necessary, the creature can remove her spirit from the fantasy at any time in order to return to the real world.


Drawbacks and Weaknesses

Unlike those which are Slumbered, Sonadora's body does not become foggy while the state is assigned to her soul, rendering her vulnerable whenever she is within a Dream or Nightmare. Although she can still detect others within her fog, she cannot protect herself on her own so long as she remains within this state. The sheer amount of power that she gains while she is present in a fantasy is also taxing and rather difficult to control, preventing her from remaining present within it for too long.

{Ulcera (Ulcer)}
Technique Name: Ulcera (Ulcer)

Technique Type: Step

Technique Element: None

Usable by: Hollow (excluding Arrancar)

Class: 7

Technique Reiatsu Cost: 75/step

Technique Description and Effects

This technique is a basic stale for a Hollow's ability to slide in and out of the valley of screams at will when it is hunting or stalking prey. By gliding in and out of the space used by techniques like Garganta or Descorrer, a hollow can get around quickly. This technique operates similarly to a stepping technique, but only moves at 5x the user's speed. However, the user weaves through rips in the fabric of whatever world they are in, and as such the hollows exits, and then re-enters at the destination, Hollows do not lose awareness of the world as they move through an Ulcera, and can return to the material world mid-step in response to a threat or opportunity. This technique does not take up a Technique slot.

Drawbacks and Weaknesses: Costs 75 reiatsu per step.

[/div]
[div]Sonadora is a fighter which, in essence, battles like any other Hollow. She does not value the likes of honor and virtue in battle, typically does not respect her opponent, and ideally is most often fueled by the idea of consuming her opponent's soul by the end of their mutual conflict in one way or another. However, unlike many of her kin, both her unimpressive physical abilities and the passive nature of her ability compels her to fight with utmost patience and strategy. As such, this makes this particular creature a notably-unusual foe that is not to be underestimated even by the most powerful of warriors.[/div]
[div]Whenever faced with the prospect of violence, the Hollow will react differently depending on the classification tied to her current form:
[/div]
[div]

[div][spoiler]{Base}Sonadora's abrupt return to her Strayed form has not been kind to the attitude she once held in combat. Since her ability has tremendously regressed due to the diversion she has experienced, she now battles with a lot less bravery than before, as any mistakes could possibly lead her to suffer a terrible death. This prudence is held with any enemy, though is particularly notable whenever she faces a Quincy, for she is acutely aware of their prowess in long-range combat. She uses her fog sparingly and strategically, using it more so as camouflage and as a means to assert dominance over others rather than as a proper weapon, and will most often remain as far away from any threats as possible if alone. Because of this, she typically targets what she personally considers to be weak or plainly incapable of fighting her in the slightest such as low-grade Humans, regardless of the delicacy of their souls.

Unfortunately, there are times in which conflict is inevitable, and in these cases, she will attempt to fight the enemy the best she possibly can. She remains in the shadows, using her fog as a means to hide from the enemy, and attacks mainly with the use of her Daydreams. If it is possible to do so, she will most notably never engage the enemy in a proper physical battle until they are themselves very weak, for she knows that her frail body will not actually permit her to engage most targets at their full strength. It is only that one may be capable of witnessing Sonadora's bestial self, as she will make sure to finish off any weakened enemies with vicious lunges, rapid cuts and merciless bites to the upper chest and face. Disfigurement are both things that she will fully favor in order to swiftly void any of the target's primary senses, and once this is done, she will then proceed to kill the target as swiftly as she possibly can to devour its soul.[/spoiler]
[/div]

[div][spoiler]{Gillian}A Gillian Sonadora does not really act any differently in comparison to any other Gillian. Like a majority of the beasts of her classification which reside within the Forest of Menos, she acts rather mindlessly and akin to a beast due to the exorbitant amount of souls residing within her bosom. This prevents her from actually preparing any sort of complex or exuberant strategy to any of her encounters, and instead forces her to act more recklessly, more specifically akin to a wild animal. When in search of prey, she hunts any who remain near her in an attempt to satiate her terrible hunger, and when she is not in search of any prey, she hunts all the same, for that is what a Gillian does and is forever cursed to do until they form as an Adjuchas.

Although she typically resides within Hueco Mundo, there will be times in which she will be attracted to the likes of the Living World to feast en-masse upon the souls of a certain area. In this case, she will attempt Kūmon to breach through the Garganta, and once completed, she will immediately attempt to swarm the area with the fog expelled from her body. Due to her sheer size, this often causes the area surrounding her to be immediately left blinded, causing confusion to arise in the local populace of souls and Humans alike before their inevitable demise as the Hollow then begins to rampage through the area. Buildings will be left damaged by her claws, and those which have the misfortune to be located beneath her will be crushed without any mercy or remorse. Those who are capable of surviving the onslaught are soon overrun by Daydreams, and with their minds kicking and screaming, they are forced to endure endless Nightmares.

The enlarged creature will at times, however, suddenly stop its rampage and remain still in a brief moment of clarity. These moments are rare and few in number, and most often occur when she does not face a powerful enemy that is preventing her from giving any attention to this moment, but will become more numerous over time as she power grows. If left unattended by any hostile contact, this moment will then be followed by an equally-brief moment of panic as the monster seemingly attempts to form into Adjuchas in a tantrum of destruction and bestial howling. Eventually, the struggle will stop and the Gillian will return to its usual business, though it is best for anyone to remain wary of the possibility of such tantrums of occurring.[/spoiler]
[/div]

[div][spoiler]{Adjuchas}Confidence and a desire to strategize will return to Sonadora once she regains her self as an Adjuchas. By this point, the fact that she was capable of returning an amount of power similar to the one she once held prior to her encounter with Belair will allow her will allow her to take risks with more ease and less hesitation. No more will she evade targets who are bothersome to her, and no more will she deliberately attempt to only target low-grade Humans. She will still prefer to not involve herself in any form of melee combat due to her physical inferiority, and so she will typically still remain away with her fog so as to remain safe from harm, but she will be less hesitant to strike targets from up-close and personal via the use of swift claws and bites on all-four. She will combine Daydreams with melee attacks, and lunge towards targets which she believes to be the most important on the battlefield, such as those who specialize in providing medical care to their allies.

Additionally, with the evolution of her ability, the Hollow will now begin to bring the weakest living beings nearest to her position under her wing by turning them into Ascended. She will mainly use these Ascended as pawns, parts of grander plans to assert her power over an area or a section of a specific world. She will send Admirers across cities to commit various crimes and horrible deeds, and deliberately bring Worshipers and Emulators in combat to battle for her alongside her Daydreams as she grows stronger.[/spoiler]
[/div]

[div][spoiler]{Vasto Lorde}As a Vasto Lorde, Sonadora's confidence will have risen to an exponential level, enough so to solidify her fighting style into something more concrete. Having now full access to the utmost potential of her ability, she will by then be capable of forming her own veritable army. Any living beings nearing her position could potentially be realigned as she sees fit, which is most typically observable in battle whenever something nears her position. A normal man could suddenly turn into a large Hollow during a battle, and a dog could become an inescapable nightmare willing to rip anything to shreds for its master. Nothing becomes safe, and it is in that reality that Sonadora will strive to become more powerful than any other being imaginable.

Nevertheless, there are times in which she will be forced to act alone. In those cases, recklessness is replaced with methodical and careful examination of the target before engaging. She acts arrogantly, believing herself to be much superior to any being who dares to challenge her in combat, but ultimately remains wary enough of her opponent's capabilities so as to not take unnecessary risks. All strategies are viable so long as they can guarantee the success of her goal, and everything is permitted in order to make sure these aforementioned strategies are successful, even the lowliest of actions imaginable. Daydreams become more overwhelming, Nightmares become increasingly dangerous, and the possibility of being converted into one of her servants become more real with each second.[/spoiler]

[div]Fog is a natural phenomenon that is caused by the condensation of tiny water droplets suspended in the air of a certain area. In essence, it is mainly the formation of a cloud at a very low altitude most commonly referred to by scientists as an aerosol. There are many types of fog, including artificial fog created by pollution or man-made devices and the frozen kind which reside in very cold temperatures, but ultimately, all fog is composed of water in one form or another. It is often witnessed whenever a certain area happens to be very humid, and so is typically associated with locations that are nearing water or are mainly comprised of water, such as forests, rivers, and in more urban environments, docks and shipyards. Due to its appearance, souls across time and space have associated fog with the unknown, something which confuses them and renders something - whether it be an object or an individual - difficult to perceive from a far away distance. In a way, it is to be said that Sonadora's ability represents this concept fairly well.
[/div]
[div]Sonadora's fog, unlike normal fog, is not actually a natural phenomenon at all, but rather a supernatural event that occurs whenever she wishes it so. Composed of reiatsu, it is fundamentally a vaguely-cubic aerosol that is expelled from the minuscule holes that form the Hollow's skin pores. It follows her wherever she goes with her figure as its epicenter, and is typically very thick, enough so to render one's environment difficult to identify. When out of combat, the creature tends to keep the fog's area of coverage at its minimum to only allow optimal camouflage of her body, though she can extend this aforementioned area by a significant margin depending on the reiatsu at her disposal. She can also control the thickness of the fog, shape it around herself to make herself appear more threatening, and even focus it onto a certain being other than herself whenever necessary.
[/div]
[div]For centuries, many Shinigami of Gotei 13 responsible for the analysis of foreign targets have been baffled by this ability as a Stray or Adjuchas Sonadora prudently tended to only use it at its full potential whenever it was necessary. Because of this, it is unclear how many officers lost their lives simply attempting to study the Hollow as it rampaged throughout feudal Europe and modern Asia. However, thanks to the recent efforts of the Twelfth Division, the following numbers have been recorded in regards to both the size and visibility of the fog: [/div]

It renders an area damp and humid, and can be uncomfortable for those who experience its touch, but it is at best only bothersome in hindsight and not an actual threat. However, should one be sufficiently knowledgeable in the matter or quite simply perceptive enough to understand the unusual nature of the fog, they will eventually understand the gravity of their situation as they interact with the Hollow. More specifically, any who has the misfortune to be located within it will be considered to be within a state that the Hollow prefers to refer to as [font color="a497b2"][b]Embraced[/b][/font].
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]Those who are Embraced allow themselves to be susceptible to Sonadora's influence so long as they are within the fog. They alert Sonadora of their presence and of their general frame, allowing her to retrieve sensory information of what she may be facing. For example, if there is a squad of four Shinigami wandering in the fog composed of two warriors specialized in melee combat, one better suited for ranged combat and another who merely is there to offer medical aid, Sonadora will be able to identify which one is which by sensing the size of their body, their weapons and their Aura. Although the Hollow is not an impressive fighter and therefore could not use this information to hunt down powerful hostile targets by herself, she can use it to inform allies of their position which may be able to do so in her place.
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]Additionally, the targets in question will also become vulnerable to [font color="a497b2"][b]Daydreams[/b][/font]. Daydreams are, in essence, attacks in the form of conjured entities that can be delivered from afar so long as Sonadora is aware of her targets' location. They can take any shape or form, and can change the appearance of the environment. However, they cannot actually deliver any physical harm to anything they touch, rendering them unable to break objects and interact with the environment in which they are apart of (the most common identifier being a lack of footprints created by a humanoid or beastly Daydream). Instead, they apply tiredness to the target. The more a Daydream touches a living target, the more mentally exhausted the target becomes until, eventually, they fall asleep, in which case Sonadora will be informed by her fog of their slumber. Once this is done, or if the target was already asleep in the fog, she can then apply to them a second property which replaces the previous Embraced state that was applied to them in the fog. This property is identified as [font color="a497b2"][b]Slumbered[/b][/font].
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]Any target which becomes Slumbered enters a catatonic state that renders their body foggy as their mind becomes separated from reality to reach the Garden of Eden, Sonadora's very own dream world. So long as they remain in this state, they cannot interact with or receive interaction from any who remain within the true world, for their entire being becomes a vaporous imprint that cannot be even so much as damaged. Unless the fog which surrounds them is forcefully removed from the area by an outside entity, they cannot be removed from this state. While they are in this state, the target will experience one of the following fantasies that will both feel and be perceived as real:[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"][ul type="disc"][li][b][font color="a497b2"]Dream[/font]: [/b]A supportive vision which typically fills the target's mind with happiness and joy. It can take any form, but generally tends to be encouraging enough to push the target towards victory. Usually, a Dream will demand one to push themselves beyond their normal capabilities. This is done by filling them with reiatsu that grants them beneficial power, such as additional strength and speed, before bringing them back to the real world. A Dream can be applied to any target, though they will generally only be given to servants or allies in need that are themselves willing to become Slumbered in order to experience it.

[/li][li][b][font color="a497b2"]Nightmare[/font]: [/b]An aggressive delusion which aims to completely overwhelm the mind of the target with inescapable fear and misery. It can take any form, but generally tends to correspond to the target's Fears. Nightmares, in comparison to Dreams, appear much more real and can cause tremendous physical and psychological harm to a target. Any damage received in a Nightmare will also be applied outside of it, meaning that if one dies in a Nightmare, they will also die in the real world.
[/li][/ul]

[/div][div align="left"]Although Sonadora's presence is not necessarily required within these fantasies, she can personally attribute the Slumbered state to herself in order to make sure the target experiences a better Dream or a worse Nightmare. Unlike those affected by the property, she can remove this state from herself at any time and simply return to the real world. While her mind is manifested within her fantasy, she is to be considered both twice as powerful as her awakened self and a step above her current Class. Attacks coming from her are generally more powerful as a result of this, and as such, she is thus typically considered much more powerful whenever she is in this state. Countless Shinigami have lost their lives attempting to battle her in a Nightmare and countless innocent Humans lost their minds attempting to merely survive them. Worse yet, there are a few of the latter who learned of the Hollow's truest potential.
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]If the Slumbered creature ever wishes to do so, she can decide to inject a being with an amount of her Hollow reiatsu during a Nightmare once she becomes an Adjuchas. The being in question must have been utterly beaten by the Hollow to the point of surrender, or rendered so broken that they cannot resist her will any further. Due to the corruptive nature of her kin's energy, this can change the target to a varying degree, leaving them in a permanent [font color="a497b2"][b]Ascended [/b][/font]state of which only the first two stages can be cured by surgeons by manually removing the Hollow reiatsu from the target's soul. The Ascended are beings under the influence of Sonadora who communicate with her in their sleep when she is near. They cannot be Quincy or any other race which suffer from poisoning when exposed to Hollow reiatsu, and although they can be Hollows, the vast majority of them are either Shinigami or Humans. There are three types of Ascended individuals, from the least to the most powerful:
[/div][div align="left"]

[/div][div align="left"][ol type="decimal"][li][font color="a497b2"][b]Admirer:[/b][/font] An individual whose mind has been affected by Sonadora's reiatsu to a point that they are influenced by her will. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 4. Unless she purposefully wishes it to be as such, they cannot remember meeting the Hollow in their Nightmare. They are driven by the creature to commit acts of violence and murder, with the most of them being specifically fueled by a certain emotion such as anger or a wish for retribution. The most of them understand that something is wrong and that something must be done about it, but they cannot explain what that wrong is and have no real solution to their problem. If Sonadora wishes it so, Admirers can wield weapons which contain parts of her reiatsu in order to spread her reiatsu further and create more Admirers. Although this amount of reiatsu is small and perhaps inconsequential for some, this can cause an eventual degeneration of the soul and, in some particular cases, Hollowfication.

[/li][li][font color="a497b2"][b]Worshiper:[/b][/font] An individual whose mind has been affected by Sonadora's reiatsu alongside their body. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 3. Unlike Admirers, Worshipers remember their meeting with the Hollow. They see her as the one who saved them from their terrible Nightmare and so wishes to serve her as much as they possibly can. Since their soul has been more corrupted by the foreign reiatsu, their bodies enter a minor metamorphosis depending on Sonadora's wishes. For instance, those who wish to act as her warriors become bulkier, while those who instead ask to act as her envoys become faster and nimbler. However, the power diminishes their appearance into something less savory, making them appear crooked and unstable. This mainly takes the form of a loss of hair, bulged muscles too big to be called natural, the sharpening of teeth and nails into fangs and claws, and the formation of a larger jaw than normal. Even so, they do not see what is wrong with them and deliberately push away anyone who attempts to heal them in one way or another. In their eyes, if they cannot serve Sonadora, then they do not deserve to live.

[/li][li][b][font color="a497b2"]Emulator:[/font][/b] An individual whose mind and body both have been so corrupted by Sonadora's reiatsu that they are starting to transform into Hollows. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 2. If they are a normal Human, their physical body has long since crumbled, unable to bear the corruption any longer, and they are starting to become full-fledged Hollows at an accelerated pace due to increased speed of their Chain of Fate's destruction. By this point, most Emulators have lost their minds entirely aside from any exceptions Sonadora wishes to create, and the moments which precede the complete disintegration of their chain is marked by insanity and utter dedication to their "Goddess". They barely act with any coherence or meaning and are to be considered better off dead than alive, for once they become Hollows, they immediately become subservient to Sonadora and do not act independently any longer. Although they are Hollows in function, the most of them are designed to accomplish a specific goal for Sonadora. For example, an Emulator can be specifically transformed into a defensive Hollow in order to defend her.

[font color="a497b2"][u][b]Fog Techniques
[/b][/u][/font]

[spoiler]{Holy Veil}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Holy Veil

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Fog Manipulation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A basic technique which represents Sonadora's control over her primordial ability. The creature allows minuscule pores present all over her skin to open, causing reiatsu formed in her body to be driven out in the form of a thick fog using her as its epicenter. The fog in question is white in appearance, draping the area in a veil of white that renders everything surrounding a living being difficult to perceive. From afar, it appears as a vaguely-cubic aerosol that is otherwise physically imperceptible from its natural counterpart. Its effects are in hindsight also identical to the latter's, rendering any environment it is present in damp and humid. Should a living being be present in this fog, the Embraced state will be applied to their soul. This allows Sonadora to sense their position in the fog by detecting the shape of the aerosol around the bodies of her targets, permitting her to identify what she may be facing depending on the information available to her, and employ the use of Daydreams against them in order to apply the Slumbered state to their soul.  

Although its main supernatural use stops there, the fog can also be utilized in a more advanced fashion by the Hollow should it possess the mastery to do so, notably by using it as a form of camouflage or intimidation. For instance, with focus, she can bring the fog to only drape her body and make herself appear grander than she is with it. Additionally, this same focus can also allow her to forcibly push the epicenter of the fog away from herself for means of distraction or offense.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Considering that the fog is composed of Sonadora's own reiatsu, it can be difficult for the creature to keep it active in a certain area for a long period of time. Unless the fog is only delimited to the very pores of her skin, simply deciding to cover an area with it requires an initial amount of reiatsu to be spent depending on her Class. Once this value is spent, half of that value must then be spent again three posts later in order to maintain the fog. The fog's size and the range of visibility available to a being located within it are also rather limited as the both of these factors are as well delimited by the Hollow's Class. The values in question can be seen below:


[div align="center"][table][tbody][tr][td style="border:solid 1px;padding:3px;" align="center"][font color="a497b2"]     [b]   Class [/b]        
[/font][/td][td style="border:solid 1px;padding:3px;"]   [b][u]Maximum Size[/u][/b]   [b][u]

[/td][/tr][tr][td style="border:solid 1px;padding:3px;"][font color="a497b2"][b]Stray[/b][/font][/td][td style="border:solid 1px;padding:3px;" align="center"]25m[/td][td style="border:solid 1px;padding:3px;" align="center"]10m
[/td][/tr][/tbody][/table][/div]

The fog is also not invincible. Like any other normal fog, it can be pushed away by a large amount of hot air colliding with it so long as the air in question is also made with or simply affected by one's reiatsu. This rids any target which was previously located within it of the Embraced or Slumbered state if they are successful, removing Sonadora's influence upon their soul.

[spoiler]{Divine Veil}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Divine Veil

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Fog Empowerment

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-3

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500 (Vasto Lorde), 150 (Adjuchas)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A direct empowerment of Sonadora's primordial ability. The creature collects the reiatsu onto a specific portion of her body before unleashing an absurd amount of her fog towards a target in a brief amount of time, something which often appears in hindsight as an explosion. Due to the sheer amount of reiatsu present within this fog, this transforms it into one of the following Divine Veils:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Mirage of Eden: [/b]A collection of reiatsu within Sonadora which was violently expunged from all of her pores at once, causing it to appear as a massive fog that goes beyond the limits delimited by her Class. It is said that it is roughly about thrice as large in size and thrice as difficult to perceive what's inside of it. This fog lasts for a total of four posts before it eventually dissipates into nothingness, and cannot be maintained.

[/li][li][b]Apple of Eden:[/b] A collection of reiatsu within Sonadora which was violently expunged from the pores of a single part of her body, causing it to first appear as a ball of condensed fog. It can appear anywhere on her body, but it is most often deployed via the hands or feet. When it is so, it can be held like an object by the creature before either throwing it in a certain direction or directly hitting a target with it. In any case, it will unleash an extremely-potent fog that can immediately cause a living being 5m around the point of impact to be Slumbered. Unlike a Holy Veil, the fog created by the Apple of Eden applies a Slumbered state that cannot be removed at all from the target, even when they are outside of the Holy Veil, for a duration of four posts.
[/li][/ul]

[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Because of the sheer amount of reiatsu required in order to create a Divine Veil in the first place, this technique can be quite taxing to the creature, and so it is typically preferred to only use this in times of need when one is completely unaware of its existence. Additionally, it is easy to differentiate a Mirage of Eden from a normal Holy Veil due to their color: the first is represented by a dark silver while the other is instead of a purer white. This can cause enemies located within it to immediately acknowledge this matter and distance themselves from it.

[font color="a497b2"][u][b]Daydream Techniques[/b][/u][/font]


[div align="center"][font size="1"][i][b][font color="a497b2"]Note:[/font][/b] Daydreams are constructs which cause [font color="a497b2"][b]Fatigue [/b][/font]rather than physical damage. Fatigue represents a character's mental exhaustion and their ability to resist Sonadora's Daydreams. When they are hit by a Daydream, this stat goes up depending on the power of the Daydream and the character's main Offensive Stat. If the latter is two times superior to Sonadora's, the Daydream's power is reduced by 50%, while the contrary instead grants 50% more power to the Daydream. Whatever their race may be, each character possesses a Fatigue stat of 0. Once this stat reaches its maximum limit of 150, the character falls asleep. This limit is increased for each point put into the Strength of Will skill up to a maximum of 250.[/i][/font]
[/div]

[spoiler]{Word of God}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Word of God

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Single Daydream

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Decree), 40 (Order), 15 (Command), 10 (Name)[b][/b]

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

One of Sonadora's simplest Daydreams that can be conveyed to those Embraced by the fog. The creature conjures an obstacle around the target's vicinity meant to strike it from any direction. For the purpose of stealth and intimidation, these obstacles often take the form of a rather-mundane object located within the environment which surrounds the target. These include falling construction equipment, electrical wires detaching themselves from nearby power lines, or sewage manholes suddenly being launched towards the target's direction due to an abrupt gas leak. The size of the object in question depends on the power of the Word, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Decree:[/b] Immense objects (planes, office buildings, electrical pylons, etc.)   |   80 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Order:[/b] Large objects (trucks, suburb homes, power generators, etc.)        |   60 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Command:[/b] Medium-sized objects (cars, furniture, etc.)                             |   40 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Name:[/b] Small objects (toys, kitchenware, fragments of glass, etc.)             |   20 Fatigue
[/li][/ul]
Should the Hollow will it so, the Word of God can remain within the fog for more than just a single post, though an amount of reiatsu equal to the one that has been used to conjure it is required to be spent per additional post in order to do so. If this cannot be done, the Daydream will dissipate once a post has passed or it has hit the target, conveying mental exhaustion to its soul.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Like any Daydream, a Word of God is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion. It cannot be changed once it has been conjured, and it cannot be lengthened or rendered smaller by any means after the fact. Additionally, the more powerful a Word of God is, the more reiatsu Sonadora will need in order to execute it, so much so that the very potency of the reiatsu currently at her disposal may be unavailable until she reaches a higher stage of the Hollow evolutionary process. This reflects in the fact that she can only start casting a Command as a Gillian, an Order as an Adjuchas, and a Decree as a Vasto Lorde.

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A Daydream composed by Sonadora which goes beyond the Word of God. The creature conjures a Daydream that is powerful enough to affect the environment of the target itself, submitting its primordial appearance to her will in order to use it against the target. Most of these illusions go beyond the mundane to instead be much stranger in appearance, such as spikes jutting suddenly from nearby walls, hands appearing from the ground to grab the target, or street lights coming to life in an attempt to bite the target. Just like Words of God, the size of the area affected by a Message of God will depend on its power, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Punishment: [/b]60m [span] [/span]|  50 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Verdict: [/b]40m          |  30 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Phrase: [/b]20m          |  15 Fatigue
[b][/b][/li][/ul]
Should the Hollow will it so, the Message of God can remain within the fog for more than just a single post, though an amount of reiatsu equal to the one that has been used to conjure it is required to be spent per additional post in order to do so. If this cannot be done, the Daydream will dissipate once a post has passed or it has hit the target, conveying mental exhaustion to its soul.

[spoiler]{Messenger of God}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Messenger of God

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Daydream Being

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (50% stats), 80 (25% stats), 10 (no stats)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The most powerful Daydream that Sonadora can ever conjure with the extent of her ability. The creature conjures what it refers to as a Messenger of God, the equivalent of a puppet at her disposal. It possesses no thoughts or free will, and bends itself to all the commands that the Hollow gives to it. Without command, they are devoid of motion. The totality of its appearance can be decided by Sonadora altogether, which can allow them to appear as a member of any race, even mindless animals. This, for instance, allows them to appear as mere bystanders during battle or as a clone of a target.

The primary purpose of a Messenger of God is to provide trickery and confusion on a battlefield. They are to be used as decoys or as mere elements of the environment to distract targets from danger. Due to this, they are rather weak and, if stricken, can be easily defeated. However, alternatively, a Messenger can also be blessed with a fraction of Sonadora's power in order to act as a proper weapon at her disposal once the Hollow becomes an Adjuchas. These Messengers possess either a quarter or half of the Hollow's stats, and can fight on her behalf for at least three posts before she needs to spend any more reiatsu to maintain them on the field. Once she reaches the state of Vasto Lorde, she will be able to create Messengers possessing half of her stats.

All attacks received from a Messenger of God applies 50 Fatigue to a target if they possess half of Sonadora's stats. Otherwise, they instead apply 25 Fatigue.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Despite how convincing it may seem, the appearance of a Messenger of God is not perfect, as there are many signs within it which can reveal its true nature to targets. Like any Daydream, it is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion, meaning that it cannot actually have any effect on the environment, no matter how many times they may attempt to damage it. This includes Messengers which happen to possess weaponry such as Zanpakuto, Fullbring, Dolls, fangs or claws. They leave no fingerprints or footprints, cannot apply pressure to an object surrounding them, and cannot be affected by something like snow or rain. Additionally, they are also incapable of executing ranged attacks as they must explicitly hit the target with a melee attack in order to cause any exhaustion to it. Any ranged attack caused by them is only an illusion and cannot be treated as real.

A Dream that Sonadora can conjure effortlessly to a Slumbered target. The Seal of Salvation is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Likes which is tasked to fill them with happiness and a wish to become better. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower one of the target's main stats, which can be any of the Hollow's choosing. The maximum efficiency of this empowerment is dictated by Sonadora's Class, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Vasto Lorde:[/b] 50% boost for three posts
[/li][li][b]Adjuchas:[/b] 35% boost for two posts

[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

A Dream lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. The Seal of Salvation is no exception to that rule. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Salvation due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then none of their stats will be raised.

It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower a section of the target's stats, which can be any of the Hollow's choosing: Physical, Spiritual or Sensory.

The most powerful Dream Sonadora can attribute to a Slumbered target. The Seal of Liberation is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Goals in order to fill them with the ultimate desire to become better. The vision in question is designed to be exceptionally-inspiring, typically resembling a future reality that may or may not become true. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower a target sufficiently enough for it to take a step forward in their natural evolution, so much so that they are to be treated a Class superior to their own for the next two posts.

If [b][font color="a497b2"]Judgement Call[/font][/b] has been used prior to the creation of the vision, this effect lasts for one more post.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses

[/b][/u]The Seal of Liberation is one of the most exhausting Dreams to apply to a target, and so requires not only utmost concentration, but also correct decision-making. Depending on the circumstances at hand, bringing this Dream to a target may either be the best course of action or the absolute worst thing that could be done. For example, bringing a being from Class 8 to Class 7 is not necessarily a bright idea. It is also fundamentally impossible to bring a Class 1 target to Class 0 with this Dream, as the power required to do so is not something that can be so easily conjured.

This Dream also follows the general rule of Dreams like any other. It lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Liberation due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then their Class shall not be raised.

[spoiler]{Garden of Eden}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Garden of Eden

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Nightmare World Creation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500 (Apocalypse), 100 (Genesis)[b][/b]

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The construction of a Nightmare to be bestowed to a Slumbered target's mind. The Garden of Eden is from which all Nightmares come from. It is the realm which is reserved to all hostile targets which have fallen asleep while fighting Sonadora, and so can harbor more than a single target for a total of six posts. As a supernatural world which can only be accessed while Slumbered, it primarily takes the form of an environment morphed by the target's Fears, with its goal being either to torment a target into submission or outright killing them. There are two types of Nightmares that can be generated by the Garden of Eden:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Apocalypse:[/b] A variable Nightmare that can be generated by an ascended Sonadora which has become either an Adjuchas or a Vasto Lorde. Apocalypse worlds are ever-changing. They never seem to be right in nature and appear to have a literal mind of their own. Land becomes water, water becomes land, the sky bleeds and the cloud become stone. Nothing seems to make sense in these worlds, almost as if no laws apply, and it is in this chaos that these worlds strive in their madness inducement and killing intent.

[/li][li][b]Genesis:[/b] A static Nightmare that can be generated by Sonadora while she is a Stray or a Gillian. Genesis worlds, unlike Apocalypse worlds, are static in the sense that they do not change. They are fixed, immobile, and are tasked to house the Slumbered until they succumb to death or madness. In order to fulfill this goal, they will typically possess dangerous elements such as various traps to harm the target.[/li][/ul]

If[font color="a497b2"][b] Judgement Call[/b][/font] has been used prior to the creation of either of these worlds, they become much more dangerous in nature, seeing as the Hollow has direct control over every single one of their elements. Although this control is more subdued in Genesis worlds, seeing as she can mainly only control the traps in question in them, it is much more potent in Apocalypse worlds as she can downright shape the world as she sees fit. In a way, in either of them, she is to be considered a temporary God for as long as she remains within it.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Nightmares can only affect those that are Slumbered, meaning the ones that have been driven asleep by Sonadora's Daydreams or were already asleep to begin within the fog. So long as the target is only Embraced or plainly outside of the fog, it is fundamentally impossible for the Hollow to create them. If the Slumbered state is removed from their being at any point in time, they will be removed from the Garden of Eden and returned to the real world. A target can decide to break out of the Nightmare at any point in time if they possess a Strength of Will or a Calm Mind of 2 for a reiatsu fee depending on the type of world generated by the Garden. If it is a Genesis world, it will cost 500 reiatsu to remove the Slumbered state from themselves, while it will instead cost 2000 reiatsu if it is an Apocalypse world. This fee is respectively reduced to 250 and 1000 if the skill in question is at 3, and if it is at 4, they will respectively be reduced to 100 and 500.

[spoiler]{Fallen Angel}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Fallen Angel

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Trauma Manifestation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]400[b] [/b](King), 80 (Duke), 30 (Prince)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The summoning of a being meant to torment the Slumbered target. Fallen Angels are creations of Sonadora which are meant to act as guards of the Garden of Eden. Their primordial task is to harm those which are condemned to the Garden, whether it be through mental or physical means. In order to complete this task, they take forms conforming to a target's Fears. They can be simple Humans which gravely terrorize the targets or, in the most intense of cases, abominable personifications of a concept or idea. These beings are to be categorized as such:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]King:[/b] The most powerful Fallen Angel that can be summoned by Sonadora after her ascension to Adjuchas. Kings are notable in the fact that they are amorphous. Their appearance is not entirely set in stone, almost as if it is always in question, and so their flesh often becomes a confusion of muscle and bone that appears otherworldly, alien. The abilities which they possess renders them powerful enough to be considered as a maximal Class 2, Non-Typed being with 1000 SP at their statistical disposition.

[/li][li][b]Duke:[/b] A stronger Fallen Angel which can be summoned by a Gillian Sonadora. Dukes possess a form that is slightly more intimidating in aspect. They will always have something that makes them more fearsome than a Prince, whether it be a particular Aura or a physical attribute of themselves. Unlike their lesser brethren, they possess a minor ability which renders them a combatant capable of being treated as a maximal Class 4 being, Non-Typed being with 500 SP at their statistical disposition.

[/li][li][b]Prince:[/b] A lesser Fallen Angel which can be summoned by a Stray Sonadora. Princes are beings which mainly are humanoid in nature, and if not humanoid, they instead are represented by smaller animals such as dogs or cats. They are purely physical beings devoid of any special abilities, and as such, they are to be considered as a combatant of a maximal Class of 6, Non-Typed being with 300 SP at their statistical disposition.
[/li][/ul]

All Fallen Angels exhume an aspect around them that provokes fear in the hearts of nearby Slumbered, enough so for them to be rather difficult to fight. They are not their Goddess, but they are more than enough to break the minds of those unable to resist them. Should Sonadora be present near them via the use of [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font], she can imbue them with additional power to make them more fearsome, making them a Class stronger than they should be.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Since they are part of the Garden of Eden, Fallen Angels cannot actually be used outside of Nightmares, meaning that they are useless against those who are not Slumbered. They can be killed like any other physical entity should someone be strong enough to face them, and once they are dead, no other Fallen Angel can replace them except one of their stronger brethren until the end of the Nightmare. For example, if a Prince dies, they can only be replaced by a Duke or a King. Additionally, due to their reliance on terror, those who possess a Lack of Fear skill can actively reduce their Class by simply resisting their fear inducement. A Lack of Fear of 2 reduces a Fallen Angel's Class by 1, one of 3 reduces it by 2, and one of 4 reduces it by 3. Since their class cannot be higher than Sonadora's own, this can practically turn their effectiveness into ashes.

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The shaping of Sonadora's own body within a Nightmare. As long as she is present within the Garden of Eden via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font], Sonadora is allowed to shape her body as much as the Nightmare itself as long as she possesses the will and the energy to do so. This shaping can be as simple as taking the appearance of a Human or animal, or as complex as becoming an outright celestial abomination the size of her Gillian self. The potency of this technique solely depends on her Class, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Vasto Lorde:[/b] Alien transformations (Enormous objects, Eldtrich creatures, etc.)
[/li][li][b]Adjuchas:[/b] Complex transformations (Large object, giant animal, etc.)
[/li][li][b]Gillian:[/b] Moderate transformations (Object, large animal, etc.)
[/li][li][b]Stray:[/b] Simple transformations (Human, Soul, small animal, etc.)
[/li][/ul]

[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses

[/b][/u]Although this is a technique that is rather simple in execution, the complexity of the shapeshifting can easily lead to an exorbitant spending of reiatsu, seeing as each transformation requires the initial amount of reiatsu to be used. The Hollow's original form also counts as a transformation, meaning that if too much reiatsu is spent, then Sonadora may be unable to return to it so long as she remains within the Nightmare. Additionally, this technique cannot be used outside of Nightmares or before activating [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font].

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500/post (duration), 250/25m (AoE expansion)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The act of bringing Nightmares to reality. With the advent of her power, Sonadora realizes that she can bring about a Nightmare into the real world by changing the property of her fog in a certain area, causing it to act as a rift spreading the likeness of the Garden of Eden. In other words, in her own twisted fantasy, the creature brings Heaven on Earth. This rift is initially 25m in size, though can be expanded if further reiatsu is spent to create it. While this is in effect, the Hollow is allowed to use all of her Nightmare techniques against any targets that are not Slumbered. All of her techniques must also be treated as being under the effects of [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font] while this is being done.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses

[/b][/u]So long as the Garden of Eden is located within the real world via Heaven on Earth, all targets within the fog are ridden of the Slumbered state and instead become Embraced once more. Although Daydreams are not inaccessible during this time, they are unable to convey the Slumbered state any longer until the effects of Heaven on Earth come to an end. This practically disables Sonadora's ability to support allies with her Dreams. Additionally, since this expansion of the Garden of Eden is produced by the fog, it can be dispersed similarly to it through the use of a large amount of hot air.

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Admirer Creation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 4

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Armed), 100 (Unarmed)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The beginning of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with an increased amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into an Admirer, which is the first classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Admirers are among the least powerful Ascended under Sonadora's control. In hindsight, they appear to be normal without any physical attributes that makes them stand out; however, they can be driven by the creature to commit terrible acts of violence and hatred towards those that are unfortunate enough to be near them. Although they are somewhat aware that something is wrong about their state of being and that something must be done to rectify this problem, they are unable to currently assert what that aforementioned problem on their own, seeing as they are unable to recall their last meeting with Sonadora.

As the weakest of the Ascended, Admirers will mostly fight bare-handed or with a normal weapon, though they will at times wield special weaponry that allows them to fight in battle. These specific weapons were accursed by the Hollow during their sleep, infected by their reiatsu almost as much as their owner's very minds. This practically allows Admirers to spread the Hollow's reiatsu to awoken targets to create more of themselves should they be Slumbered, and in some profound long-term cases, even Hollowfication.

All Admirer NPCs must be considered a Class above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Admirer PCs are exempted from this boost.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

There are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:


[ol type="decimal"][li]The target must be Slumbered. No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to create an Ascended while the target is awake.

[/li][li]The target must not be from a race which suffers from poisoning upon being exposed to Hollow reiatsu, such as Quincy.

[/li][li]The target must possess a Class equal or inferior to Sonadora's; if not, they will effortlessly resist her reiatsu with minor discomfort.

[/li][li]The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font] while the process is ongoing.  If the target's Class is two units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.

[/li][li]The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unable to fight any longer. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.[/li][/ol][div]

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into an Admirer, after which the only way the target will be able to rid themselves of the condition will be to either rid their soul of the Hollow reiatsu in some way or another, or meet someone capable of doing the same. On PCs, this effect is temporary if it was applied during an NDE or DP thread unless the owner of the PCs agree for it to be permanent, only lasting for the entirety of the thread before their unique will can allow them to shake it off. Moreover, if they are near Sonadora while they are an Admirer, they can resist her orders for two posts so long as they possess a Strength of Will of 1. This resistance is upgraded by a post each time they raise their Strength of Will until it has reached 4, in which case they can effortlessly resist all of her orders until treatment.

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 3

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The middle of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with a notable amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into a Worshiper, which is the second classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Worshipers are beings which have been corrupted enough by the reiatsu to start changing both in mind and body. They are mentally unwell, proclaiming themselves as servants of the Hollow that will follow her without question, and typically are very hostile to anyone who they may believe to be against their master's wishes. Even in appearance, they appear crooked and unstable as their bodies enter a sort of metamorphosis of Sonadora's choosing from  the list below:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Crusader: [/b]A large Worshiper which are typically characterized by a loud voice, and an excess of muscle tissue that makes them appear bulky and perhaps bloated. Compared to normal Humans, their upper body is much larger than their lower body, which makes them appear like an overgrown mutant among the general civilian populace. Due to this, they are strong, able to destroy defenses with ease. A larger jaw is especially prominent within this type.

[/li][li][b]Pilgrim:[/b] A nimble Worshiper which is more so identified by its thinner frame and excessively-sized nails that are as sharp as blades. Their lower bodies are prominent due to leg muscle growth which allows them to reach faster speeds, and they generally appear twitchy, as though they almost cannot handle their own reflexes. Long hair is especially prominent within this type.

[/li][li][b]Priest:[/b] A small Worshiper which is more so identified by its larger eyes and head, both signs of higher intellect. Despite their upper and lower bodies being generally unimpressive in stature, the knowledge that they have seemingly acquired from their transformation makes them more capable of casting spells and magic. If they do not have access to those things, they instead appear more accurate due to their strange bloodshot eyes.

[/li][li][b]Devotee:[/b] A basic Worshiper who possesses lesser attributes from all of its brethren while also looking the most Human. They can easily blend in crowds and appear normal despite their strange and alien beliefs, but they can also defend themselves in a fight very well if need be. Despite this, they prefer to stick close to their brethren and follow their directives whenever they do battle.
[/li][/ul]

All Worshiper NPCs must be considered two Classes above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Worshiper PCs are exempted from this boost. Additionally, this technique can be used on an Admirer to transform them into a Worshiper.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Like the Celestial Blessing, there are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:


[ol type="decimal"][li]The target must not have been transformed into an Admirer within the same thread prior to this further Ascension. If the target is an NPC, this condition can be ignored.

[/li][li]The target must be Slumbered. No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to create an Ascended while the target is awake.

[/li][li]The target must not be from a race which suffers from poisoning upon being exposed to Hollow reiatsu, such as Quincy.

[/li][li]The target must possess a Class equal or inferior to Sonadora's; if not, they will effortlessly resist her reiatsu with minor discomfort.

[/li][li]The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font] while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is three units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.

[/li][li]The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unable to fight any longer. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.[/li][/ol]

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into a Worshiper, after which the only way the target will be able to rid themselves of the condition will be to meet someone capable of ridding their soul of the Hollow reiatsu in some way or another. On PCs, this effect is temporary if it was applied during an NDE or DP thread unless the owner of the PCs agree for it to be permanent, only lasting for the entirety of the thread before their unique will can allow them and their bodies to shake it off. Moreover, they can resist Sonadora's influence on their mind for two posts so long as they possess a Strength of Will of 2. This resistance is upgraded by a post each time they raise their Strength of Will until it has reached 4, in which case they can effortlessly resist all of her orders until treatment, though their body remains deformed in the meanwhile.

[spoiler]{Celestial Absolution}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Celestial Absolution

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Emulator Creation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 2 (on NPCs), 1 (on PCs)

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]1000

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

What one would consider to be the final stage of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with an impressive amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into an Emulator, which is the final classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Emulators are, in essence, Worshipers that have been so infected by the creature's reiatsu that their souls is starting to be overtaken by it, causing their bodies to crumble from their energy and their Souls to start transforming into Hollows. This transformation, unless Sonadora especially wills it so, breaks their minds entirely into an insane mess of incoherent preaching and dedication to what they now believe to be their ultimate deity. Like Worshipers, they too possess many variants that their creator can choose to transform them into:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Throne: [/b]Especially large Emulators that were specifically designed to harbor immense physical strength. They are slow and clumsy, beast-like, but their bulky bodies allow them to destroy a great amount of things in their way with a swipe of the hand while also serving as resistant shields for their fellow kin.

[/li][li][b]Cherubim:[/b] An Emulator granted the ability to reach great speed and velocity. Their bodies are slim and insect in nature, with wings protruding from their back. They possess the sharpest fangs and claws among all of the Emulators, allowing them to dissect and devour Souls the fastest among them as well.

[/li][li][b]Seraphim:[/b] Magically-inclined Emulators which are pudgy and toad-like in nature. They are small and seemingly insignificant, though they possess a shocking amount of knowledge and potency in the magical arts. Their Ceros are the most impressive among the entirety of the Emulators, so much so that they can be more destructive than Thrones if let be.

[/li][li][b]Angel:[/b] A general Emulator with no significant purpose. Among the Emulators, they are the most "normal" Hollow, as normal as a Hollow could ever possibly be. Most Angels typically act as minions for their brethren and are generally even-more mindless than them, acting more like animals than any of them.
[/li][/ul]

All Emulator NPCs must be considered three Classes above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Emulator PCs are exempted from this boost. Half of the souls consumed by Emulators under Sonadora's control are automatically absorbed by her being when she is near them.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

As to be expected, there are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:


[ol type="decimal"][li]The target must have already been transformed into a Worshiper prior to this further Ascension.

[/li][li]The target must not have been transformed into a Worshiper within the same thread prior to this further Ascension. If the target is an NPC, this condition can be ignored.

[/li][li]The target must be Slumbered. Even so far into the Ascension process, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to complete this aforementioned process while the target is awake.

[/li][li]The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call [/b][/font]while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is four units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.

[/li][li]The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unwilling to fight her. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.

[/li][/ol]
Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into an Emulator, after which the target will forever remain under Sonadora's subservience as a Hollow. By that point, it is impossible for a PC to simply shake off the effects of this technique, and so this technique can only be usable on PCs during DE threads. A Strength of Will of 4 will nevertheless allow them to break from her influence, though they will remain as Hollows until they die or their state is somehow reversed to its origin.

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250/post (Vasto Lorde), 40/post (Adjuchas), 20/post (Gillian), 10/post (Stray)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A self-affliction meant to lead Sonadora to greater power within her realm. The creature closes the eyes behind her mask before forcefully bringing herself into Slumber, which allows her spirit to leave her body via the fog surrounding her. Once this is done, she can directly invade a Slumbered target's Dream or Nightmare by moving her spirit directly into the target's foggy self. If this was a successful endeavor, all of Sonadora's stats doubles and she is to be considered a Class above her current one so long as she remains within the fantasy that she has created for the target. Should she ever consider it to be necessary, the creature can remove her spirit from the fantasy at any time in order to return to the real world.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Unlike those which are Slumbered, Sonadora's body does not become foggy while the state is assigned to her soul, rendering her vulnerable whenever she is within a Dream or Nightmare. Although she can still detect others within her fog, she cannot protect herself on her own so long as she remains within this state. The sheer amount of power that she gains while she is present in a fantasy is also taxing and rather difficult to control, preventing her from remaining present within it for too long.

This technique is a basic stale for a Hollow's ability to slide in and out of the valley of screams at will when it is hunting or stalking prey. By gliding in and out of the space used by techniques like Garganta or Descorrer, a hollow can get around quickly. This technique operates similarly to a stepping technique, but only moves at 5x the user's speed. However, the user weaves through rips in the fabric of whatever world they are in, and as such the hollows exits, and then re-enters at the destination, Hollows do not lose awareness of the world as they move through an Ulcera, and can return to the material world mid-step in response to a threat or opportunity. This technique does not take up a Technique slot.

[/div]
[div]Sonadora is a fighter which, in essence, battles like any other Hollow. She does not value the likes of honor and virtue in battle, typically does not respect her opponent, and ideally is most often fueled by the idea of consuming her opponent's soul by the end of their mutual conflict in one way or another. However, unlike many of her kin, both her unimpressive physical abilities and the passive nature of her ability compels her to fight with utmost patience and strategy. As such, this makes this particular creature a notably-unusual foe that is not to be underestimated even by the most powerful of warriors.[/div]
[div]Whenever faced with the prospect of violence, the Hollow will react differently depending on the classification tied to her current form:
[/div]
[div]

[div][spoiler]{Base}Sonadora's abrupt return to her Strayed form has not been kind to the attitude she once held in combat. Since her ability has tremendously regressed due to the diversion she has experienced, she now battles with a lot less bravery than before, as any mistakes could possibly lead her to suffer a terrible death. This prudence is held with any enemy, though is particularly notable whenever she faces a Quincy, for she is acutely aware of their prowess in long-range combat. She uses her fog sparingly and strategically, using it more so as camouflage and as a means to assert dominance over others rather than as a proper weapon, and will most often remain as far away from any threats as possible if alone. Because of this, she typically targets what she personally considers to be weak or plainly incapable of fighting her in the slightest such as low-grade Humans, regardless of the delicacy of their souls.

Unfortunately, there are times in which conflict is inevitable, and in these cases, she will attempt to fight the enemy the best she possibly can. She remains in the shadows, using her fog as a means to hide from the enemy, and attacks mainly with the use of her Daydreams. If it is possible to do so, she will most notably never engage the enemy in a proper physical battle until they are themselves very weak, for she knows that her frail body will not actually permit her to engage most targets at their full strength. It is only that one may be capable of witnessing Sonadora's bestial self, as she will make sure to finish off any weakened enemies with vicious lunges, rapid cuts and merciless bites to the upper chest and face. Disfigurement are both things that she will fully favor in order to swiftly void any of the target's primary senses, and once this is done, she will then proceed to kill the target as swiftly as she possibly can to devour its soul.[/spoiler]
[/div]

[div][spoiler]{Gillian}A Gillian Sonadora does not really act any differently in comparison to any other Gillian. Like a majority of the beasts of her classification which reside within the Forest of Menos, she acts rather mindlessly and akin to a beast due to the exorbitant amount of souls residing within her bosom. This prevents her from actually preparing any sort of complex or exuberant strategy to any of her encounters, and instead forces her to act more recklessly, more specifically akin to a wild animal. When in search of prey, she hunts any who remain near her in an attempt to satiate her terrible hunger, and when she is not in search of any prey, she hunts all the same, for that is what a Gillian does and is forever cursed to do until they form as an Adjuchas.

Although she typically resides within Hueco Mundo, there will be times in which she will be attracted to the likes of the Living World to feast en-masse upon the souls of a certain area. In this case, she will attempt Kūmon to breach through the Garganta, and once completed, she will immediately attempt to swarm the area with the fog expelled from her body. Due to her sheer size, this often causes the area surrounding her to be immediately left blinded, causing confusion to arise in the local populace of souls and Humans alike before their inevitable demise as the Hollow then begins to rampage through the area. Buildings will be left damaged by her claws, and those which have the misfortune to be located beneath her will be crushed without any mercy or remorse. Those who are capable of surviving the onslaught are soon overrun by Daydreams, and with their minds kicking and screaming, they are forced to endure endless Nightmares.

The enlarged creature will at times, however, suddenly stop its rampage and remain still in a brief moment of clarity. These moments are rare and few in number, and most often occur when she does not face a powerful enemy that is preventing her from giving any attention to this moment, but will become more numerous over time as she power grows. If left unattended by any hostile contact, this moment will then be followed by an equally-brief moment of panic as the monster seemingly attempts to form into Adjuchas in a tantrum of destruction and bestial howling. Eventually, the struggle will stop and the Gillian will return to its usual business, though it is best for anyone to remain wary of the possibility of such tantrums of occurring.[/spoiler]
[/div]

[div][spoiler]{Adjuchas}Confidence and a desire to strategize will return to Sonadora once she regains her self as an Adjuchas. By this point, the fact that she was capable of returning an amount of power similar to the one she once held prior to her encounter with Belair will allow her will allow her to take risks with more ease and less hesitation. No more will she evade targets who are bothersome to her, and no more will she deliberately attempt to only target low-grade Humans. She will still prefer to not involve herself in any form of melee combat due to her physical inferiority, and so she will typically still remain away with her fog so as to remain safe from harm, but she will be less hesitant to strike targets from up-close and personal via the use of swift claws and bites on all-four. She will combine Daydreams with melee attacks, and lunge towards targets which she believes to be the most important on the battlefield, such as those who specialize in providing medical care to their allies.

Additionally, with the evolution of her ability, the Hollow will now begin to bring the weakest living beings nearest to her position under her wing by turning them into Ascended. She will mainly use these Ascended as pawns, parts of grander plans to assert her power over an area or a section of a specific world. She will send Admirers across cities to commit various crimes and horrible deeds, and deliberately bring Worshipers and Emulators in combat to battle for her alongside her Daydreams as she grows stronger.[/spoiler]
[/div]

[div][spoiler]{Vasto Lorde}As a Vasto Lorde, Sonadora's confidence will have risen to an exponential level, enough so to solidify her fighting style into something more concrete. Having now full access to the utmost potential of her ability, she will by then be capable of forming her own veritable army. Any living beings nearing her position could potentially be realigned as she sees fit, which is most typically observable in battle whenever something nears her position. A normal man could suddenly turn into a large Hollow during a battle, and a dog could become an inescapable nightmare willing to rip anything to shreds for its master. Nothing becomes safe, and it is in that reality that Sonadora will strive to become more powerful than any other being imaginable.

Nevertheless, there are times in which she will be forced to act alone. In those cases, recklessness is replaced with methodical and careful examination of the target before engaging. She acts arrogantly, believing herself to be much superior to any being who dares to challenge her in combat, but ultimately remains wary enough of her opponent's capabilities so as to not take unnecessary risks. All strategies are viable so long as they can guarantee the success of her goal, and everything is permitted in order to make sure these aforementioned strategies are successful, even the lowliest of actions imaginable. Daydreams become more overwhelming, Nightmares become increasingly dangerous, and the possibility of being converted into one of her servants become more real with each second.[/spoiler]

[/div]
[div]Fog is a natural phenomenon that is caused by the condensation of tiny water droplets suspended in the air of a certain area. In essence, it is mainly the formation of a cloud at a very low altitude most commonly referred to by scientists as an aerosol. There are many types of fog, including artificial fog created by pollution or man-made devices and the frozen kind which reside in very cold temperatures, but ultimately, all fog is composed of water in one form or another. It is often witnessed whenever a certain area happens to be very humid, and so is typically associated with locations that are nearing water or are mainly comprised of water, such as forests, rivers, and in more urban environments, docks and shipyards. Due to its appearance, souls across time and space have associated fog with the unknown, something which confuses them and renders something - whether it be an object or an individual - difficult to perceive from a far away distance. In a way, it is to be said that Sonadora's ability represents this concept fairly well.
[/div]
[div]Sonadora's fog, unlike normal fog, is not actually a natural phenomenon at all, but rather a supernatural event that occurs whenever she wishes it so. Composed of reiatsu, it is fundamentally a vaguely-cubic aerosol that is expelled from the minuscule holes that form the Hollow's skin pores. It follows her wherever she goes with her figure as its epicenter, and is typically very thick, enough so to render one's environment difficult to identify. When out of combat, the creature tends to keep the fog's area of coverage at its minimum to only allow optimal camouflage of her body, though she can extend this aforementioned area by a significant margin depending on the reiatsu at her disposal. She can also control the thickness of the fog, shape it around herself to make herself appear more threatening, and even focus it onto a certain being other than herself whenever necessary.
[/div]
[div]For centuries, many Shinigami of Gotei 13 responsible for the analysis of foreign targets have been baffled by this ability as a Stray or Adjuchas Sonadora prudently tended to only use it at its full potential whenever it was necessary. Because of this, it is unclear how many officers lost their lives simply attempting to study the Hollow as it rampaged throughout feudal Europe and modern Asia. However, thanks to the recent efforts of the Twelfth Division, the following numbers have been recorded in regards to both the size and visibility of the fog: [/div]

[/td][/tr][/tbody][/table][/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]The fog may not appear dangerous on its own if not used for stealth or infiltration. For all sense and purposes, it appears only as a supernatural replica of a true aerosol which can be notably dispersed by hot air. It renders an area damp and humid, and can be uncomfortable for those who experience its touch, but it is at best only bothersome in hindsight and not an actual threat. However, should one be sufficiently knowledgeable in the matter or quite simply perceptive enough to understand the unusual nature of the fog, they will eventually understand the gravity of their situation as they interact with the Hollow. More specifically, any who has the misfortune to be located within it will be considered to be within a state that the Hollow prefers to refer to as [font color="a497b2"][b]Embraced[/b][/font].
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]Those who are Embraced allow themselves to be susceptible to Sonadora's influence so long as they are within the fog. They alert Sonadora of their presence and of their general frame, allowing her to retrieve sensory information of what she may be facing. For example, if there is a squad of four Shinigami wandering in the fog composed of two warriors specialized in melee combat, one better suited for ranged combat and another who merely is there to offer medical aid, Sonadora will be able to identify which one is which by sensing the size of their body, their weapons and their Aura. Although the Hollow is not an impressive fighter and therefore could not use this information to hunt down powerful hostile targets by herself, she can use it to inform allies of their position which may be able to do so in her place.
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]Additionally, the targets in question will also become vulnerable to [font color="a497b2"][b]Daydreams[/b][/font]. Daydreams are, in essence, attacks in the form of conjured entities that can be delivered from afar so long as Sonadora is aware of her targets' location. They can take any shape or form, and can change the appearance of the environment. However, they cannot actually deliver any physical harm to anything they touch, rendering them unable to break objects and interact with the environment in which they are apart of (the most common identifier being a lack of footprints created by a humanoid or beastly Daydream). Instead, they apply tiredness to the target. The more a Daydream touches a living target, the more mentally exhausted the target becomes until, eventually, they fall asleep, in which case Sonadora will be informed by her fog of their slumber. Once this is done, or if the target was already asleep in the fog, she can then apply to them a second property which replaces the previous Embraced state that was applied to them in the fog. This property is identified as [font color="a497b2"][b]Slumbered[/b][/font].
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]Any target which becomes Slumbered enters a catatonic state that renders their body foggy as their mind becomes separated from reality to reach the Garden of Eden, Sonadora's very own dream world. So long as they remain in this state, they cannot interact with or receive interaction from any who remain within the true world, for their entire being becomes a vaporous imprint that cannot be even so much as damaged. Unless the fog which surrounds them is forcefully removed from the area by an outside entity, they cannot be removed from this state. While they are in this state, the target will experience one of the following fantasies that will both feel and be perceived as real:[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"][ul type="disc"][li][b][font color="a497b2"]Dream[/font]: [/b]A supportive vision which typically fills the target's mind with happiness and joy. It can take any form, but generally tends to be encouraging enough to push the target towards victory. Usually, a Dream will demand one to push themselves beyond their normal capabilities. This is done by filling them with reiatsu that grants them beneficial power, such as additional strength and speed, before bringing them back to the real world. A Dream can be applied to any target, though they will generally only be given to servants or allies in need that are themselves willing to become Slumbered in order to experience it.

[/li][li][b][font color="a497b2"]Nightmare[/font]: [/b]An aggressive delusion which aims to completely overwhelm the mind of the target with inescapable fear and misery. It can take any form, but generally tends to correspond to the target's Fears. Nightmares, in comparison to Dreams, appear much more real and can cause tremendous physical and psychological harm to a target. Any damage received in a Nightmare will also be applied outside of it, meaning that if one dies in a Nightmare, they will also die in the real world.
[/li][/ul]

[/div][div align="left"]Although Sonadora's presence is not necessarily required within these fantasies, she can personally attribute the Slumbered state to herself in order to make sure the target experiences a better Dream or a worse Nightmare. Unlike those affected by the property, she can remove this state from herself at any time and simply return to the real world. While her mind is manifested within her fantasy, she is to be considered both twice as powerful as her awakened self and a step above her current Class. Attacks coming from her are generally more powerful as a result of this, and as such, she is thus typically considered much more powerful whenever she is in this state. Countless Shinigami have lost their lives attempting to battle her in a Nightmare and countless innocent Humans lost their minds attempting to merely survive them. Worse yet, there are a few of the latter who learned of the Hollow's truest potential.
[/div][div align="left"]
[/div][div align="left"]If the Slumbered creature ever wishes to do so, she can decide to inject a being with an amount of her Hollow reiatsu during a Nightmare once she becomes an Adjuchas. The being in question must have been utterly beaten by the Hollow to the point of surrender, or rendered so broken that they cannot resist her will any further. Due to the corruptive nature of her kin's energy, this can change the target to a varying degree, leaving them in a permanent [font color="a497b2"][b]Ascended [/b][/font]state of which only the first two stages can be cured by surgeons by manually removing the Hollow reiatsu from the target's soul. The Ascended are beings under the influence of Sonadora who communicate with her in their sleep when she is near. They cannot be Quincy or any other race which suffer from poisoning when exposed to Hollow reiatsu, and although they can be Hollows, the vast majority of them are either Shinigami or Humans. There are three types of Ascended individuals, from the least to the most powerful:
[/div][div align="left"]

[/div][div align="left"][ol type="decimal"][li][font color="a497b2"][b]Admirer:[/b][/font] An individual whose mind has been affected by Sonadora's reiatsu to a point that they are influenced by her will. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 4. Unless she purposefully wishes it to be as such, they cannot remember meeting the Hollow in their Nightmare. They are driven by the creature to commit acts of violence and murder, with the most of them being specifically fueled by a certain emotion such as anger or a wish for retribution. The most of them understand that something is wrong and that something must be done about it, but they cannot explain what that wrong is and have no real solution to their problem. If Sonadora wishes it so, Admirers can wield weapons which contain parts of her reiatsu in order to spread her reiatsu further and create more Admirers. Although this amount of reiatsu is small and perhaps inconsequential for some, this can cause an eventual degeneration of the soul and, in some particular cases, Hollowfication.

[/li][li][font color="a497b2"][b]Worshiper:[/b][/font] An individual whose mind has been affected by Sonadora's reiatsu alongside their body. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 3. Unlike Admirers, Worshipers remember their meeting with the Hollow. They see her as the one who saved them from their terrible Nightmare and so wishes to serve her as much as they possibly can. Since their soul has been more corrupted by the foreign reiatsu, their bodies enter a minor metamorphosis depending on Sonadora's wishes. For instance, those who wish to act as her warriors become bulkier, while those who instead ask to act as her envoys become faster and nimbler. However, the power diminishes their appearance into something less savory, making them appear crooked and unstable. This mainly takes the form of a loss of hair, bulged muscles too big to be called natural, the sharpening of teeth and nails into fangs and claws, and the formation of a larger jaw than normal. Even so, they do not see what is wrong with them and deliberately push away anyone who attempts to heal them in one way or another. In their eyes, if they cannot serve Sonadora, then they do not deserve to live.

[/li][li][b][font color="a497b2"]Emulator:[/font][/b] An individual whose mind and body both have been so corrupted by Sonadora's reiatsu that they are starting to transform into Hollows. They can be created by Sonadora once she reaches Class 2. If they are a normal Human, their physical body has long since crumbled, unable to bear the corruption any longer, and they are starting to become full-fledged Hollows at an accelerated pace due to increased speed of their Chain of Fate's destruction. By this point, most Emulators have lost their minds entirely aside from any exceptions Sonadora wishes to create, and the moments which precede the complete disintegration of their chain is marked by insanity and utter dedication to their "Goddess". They barely act with any coherence or meaning and are to be considered better off dead than alive, for once they become Hollows, they immediately become subservient to Sonadora and do not act independently any longer. Although they are Hollows in function, the most of them are designed to accomplish a specific goal for Sonadora. For example, an Emulator can be specifically transformed into a defensive Hollow in order to defend her.

[/b][/u][/font]

[spoiler]{Holy Veil}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Holy Veil

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Fog Manipulation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A basic technique which represents Sonadora's control over her primordial ability. The creature allows minuscule pores present all over her skin to open, causing reiatsu formed in her body to be driven out in the form of a thick fog using her as its epicenter. The fog in question is white in appearance, draping the area in a veil of white that renders everything surrounding a living being difficult to perceive. From afar, it appears as a vaguely-cubic aerosol that is otherwise physically imperceptible from its natural counterpart. Its effects are in hindsight also identical to the latter's, rendering any environment it is present in damp and humid. Should a living being be present in this fog, the Embraced state will be applied to their soul. This allows Sonadora to sense their position in the fog by detecting the shape of the aerosol around the bodies of her targets, permitting her to identify what she may be facing depending on the information available to her, and employ the use of Daydreams against them in order to apply the Slumbered state to their soul. 

Although its main supernatural use stops there, the fog can also be utilized in a more advanced fashion by the Hollow should it possess the mastery to do so, notably by using it as a form of camouflage or intimidation. For instance, with focus, she can bring the fog to only drape her body and make herself appear grander than she is with it. Additionally, this same focus can also allow her to forcibly push the epicenter of the fog away from herself for means of distraction or offense.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Considering that the fog is composed of Sonadora's own reiatsu, it can be difficult for the creature to keep it active in a certain area for a long period of time. Unless the fog is only delimited to the very pores of her skin, simply deciding to cover an area with it requires an initial amount of reiatsu to be spent depending on her Class. Once this value is spent, half of that value must then be spent again three posts later in order to maintain the fog. The fog's size and the range of visibility available to a being located within it are also rather limited as the both of these factors are as well delimited by the Hollow's Class. The values in question can be seen below:


[div align="center"][table][tbody][tr][td style="border:solid 1px;padding:3px;" align="center"][font color="a497b2"]     [b]   Class [/b]

[/td][/tr][/tbody][/table][/div]

The fog is also not invincible. Like any other normal fog, it can be pushed away by a large amount of hot air colliding with it so long as the air in question is also made with or simply affected by one's reiatsu. This rids any target which was previously located within it of the Embraced or Slumbered state if they are successful, removing Sonadora's influence upon their soul.
[/spoiler]


[spoiler]{Divine Veil}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Divine Veil

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Fog Empowerment

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-3

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500 (Vasto Lorde), 150 (Adjuchas)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A direct empowerment of Sonadora's primordial ability. The creature collects the reiatsu onto a specific portion of her body before unleashing an absurd amount of her fog towards a target in a brief amount of time, something which often appears in hindsight as an explosion. Due to the sheer amount of reiatsu present within this fog, this transforms it into one of the following Divine Veils:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Mirage of Eden: [/b]A collection of reiatsu within Sonadora which was violently expunged from all of her pores at once, causing it to appear as a massive fog that goes beyond the limits delimited by her Class. It is said that it is roughly about thrice as large in size and thrice as difficult to perceive what's inside of it. This fog lasts for a total of four posts before it eventually dissipates into nothingness, and cannot be maintained.

[/li][li][b]Apple of Eden:[/b] A collection of reiatsu within Sonadora which was violently expunged from the pores of a single part of her body, causing it to first appear as a ball of condensed fog. It can appear anywhere on her body, but it is most often deployed via the hands or feet. When it is so, it can be held like an object by the creature before either throwing it in a certain direction or directly hitting a target with it. In any case, it will unleash an extremely-potent fog that can immediately cause a living being 5m around the point of impact to be Slumbered. Unlike a Holy Veil, the fog created by the Apple of Eden applies a Slumbered state that cannot be removed at all from the target, even when they are outside of the Holy Veil, for a duration of four posts.
[/li][/ul]

[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Because of the sheer amount of reiatsu required in order to create a Divine Veil in the first place, this technique can be quite taxing to the creature, and so it is typically preferred to only use this in times of need when one is completely unaware of its existence. Additionally, it is easy to differentiate a Mirage of Eden from a normal Holy Veil due to their color: the first is represented by a dark silver while the other is instead of a purer white. This can cause enemies located within it to immediately acknowledge this matter and distance themselves from it.

[font color="a497b2"][u][b]Daydream Techniques[/b][/u][/font]


[div align="center"][font size="1"][i][b][font color="a497b2"]Note:[/font][/b] Daydreams are constructs which cause [font color="a497b2"][b]Fatigue [/b][/font]rather than physical damage. Fatigue represents a character's mental exhaustion and their ability to resist Sonadora's Daydreams. When they are hit by a Daydream, this stat goes up depending on the power of the Daydream and the character's main Offensive Stat. If the latter is two times superior to Sonadora's, the Daydream's power is reduced by 50%, while the contrary instead grants 50% more power to the Daydream. Whatever their race may be, each character possesses a Fatigue stat of 0. Once this stat reaches its maximum limit of 150, the character falls asleep. This limit is increased for each point put into the Strength of Will skill up to a maximum of 250.[/i][/font]
[/div]

[spoiler]{Word of God}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Word of God

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Single Daydream

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Decree), 40 (Order), 15 (Command), 10 (Name)[b][/b]

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

One of Sonadora's simplest Daydreams that can be conveyed to those Embraced by the fog. The creature conjures an obstacle around the target's vicinity meant to strike it from any direction. For the purpose of stealth and intimidation, these obstacles often take the form of a rather-mundane object located within the environment which surrounds the target. These include falling construction equipment, electrical wires detaching themselves from nearby power lines, or sewage manholes suddenly being launched towards the target's direction due to an abrupt gas leak. The size of the object in question depends on the power of the Word, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Decree:[/b] Immense objects (planes, office buildings, electrical pylons, etc.)   |   80 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Order:[/b] Large objects (trucks, suburb homes, power generators, etc.)        |   60 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Command:[/b] Medium-sized objects (cars, furniture, etc.)                             |   40 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Name:[/b] Small objects (toys, kitchenware, fragments of glass, etc.)             |   20 Fatigue
[/li][/ul]
Should the Hollow will it so, the Word of God can remain within the fog for more than just a single post, though an amount of reiatsu equal to the one that has been used to conjure it is required to be spent per additional post in order to do so. If this cannot be done, the Daydream will dissipate once a post has passed or it has hit the target, conveying mental exhaustion to its soul.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Like any Daydream, a Word of God is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion. It cannot be changed once it has been conjured, and it cannot be lengthened or rendered smaller by any means after the fact. Additionally, the more powerful a Word of God is, the more reiatsu Sonadora will need in order to execute it, so much so that the very potency of the reiatsu currently at her disposal may be unavailable until she reaches a higher stage of the Hollow evolutionary process. This reflects in the fact that she can only start casting a Command as a Gillian, an Order as an Adjuchas, and a Decree as a Vasto Lorde.

A Daydream composed by Sonadora which goes beyond the Word of God. The creature conjures a Daydream that is powerful enough to affect the environment of the target itself, submitting its primordial appearance to her will in order to use it against the target. Most of these illusions go beyond the mundane to instead be much stranger in appearance, such as spikes jutting suddenly from nearby walls, hands appearing from the ground to grab the target, or street lights coming to life in an attempt to bite the target. Just like Words of God, the size of the area affected by a Message of God will depend on its power, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Punishment: [/b]60m [span] [/span]|  50 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Verdict: [/b]40m          |  30 Fatigue
[/li][li][b]Phrase: [/b]20m          |  15 Fatigue
[b][/b][/li][/ul]
Should the Hollow will it so, the Message of God can remain within the fog for more than just a single post, though an amount of reiatsu equal to the one that has been used to conjure it is required to be spent per additional post in order to do so. If this cannot be done, the Daydream will dissipate once a post has passed or it has hit the target, conveying mental exhaustion to its soul.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Like any Daydream, a Message of God is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion. It cannot be changed once it has been conjured, and it cannot be lengthened or rendered smaller by any means after the fact. Additionally, the more powerful a Word of God is, the more reiatsu Sonadora will need in order to execute it, so much so that the very potency of the reiatsu currently at her disposal may be unavailable until she reaches a higher stage of the Hollow evolutionary process.

[spoiler]{Messenger of God}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Messenger of God

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Daydream Being

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (50% stats), 80 (25% stats), 10 (no stats)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The most powerful Daydream that Sonadora can ever conjure with the extent of her ability. The creature conjures what it refers to as a Messenger of God, the equivalent of a puppet at her disposal. It possesses no thoughts or free will, and bends itself to all the commands that the Hollow gives to it. Without command, they are devoid of motion. The totality of its appearance can be decided by Sonadora altogether, which can allow them to appear as a member of any race, even mindless animals. This, for instance, allows them to appear as mere bystanders during battle or as a clone of a target.

The primary purpose of a Messenger of God is to provide trickery and confusion on a battlefield. They are to be used as decoys or as mere elements of the environment to distract targets from danger. Due to this, they are rather weak and, if stricken, can be easily defeated. However, alternatively, a Messenger can also be blessed with a fraction of Sonadora's power in order to act as a proper weapon at her disposal once the Hollow becomes an Adjuchas. These Messengers possess either a quarter or half of the Hollow's stats, and can fight on her behalf for at least three posts before she needs to spend any more reiatsu to maintain them on the field.

All attacks received from a Messenger of God applies 25 Fatigue to a target.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Despite how convincing it may seem, the appearance of a Messenger of God is not perfect, as there are many signs within it which can reveal its true nature to targets. Like any Daydream, it is incapable of actually causing any physical damage to a target, as it instead only conveys exhaustion, meaning that it cannot actually have any effect on the environment, no matter how many times they may attempt to damage it. This includes Messengers which happen to possess weaponry such as Zanpakuto, Fullbring, Dolls, fangs or claws. They leave no fingerprints or footprints, cannot apply pressure to an object surrounding them, and cannot be affected by something like snow or rain. Additionally, they are also incapable of executing ranged attacks as they must explicitly hit the target with a melee attack in order to cause any exhaustion to it. Any ranged attack caused by them is only an illusion and cannot be treated as real.

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A Dream that Sonadora can conjure effortlessly to a Slumbered target. The Seal of Salvation is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Likes which is tasked to fill them with happiness and a wish to become better. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower one of the target's main stats, which can be any of the Hollow's choosing. The maximum efficiency of this empowerment is dictated by Sonadora's Class, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Vasto Lorde:[/b] 50% boost for three posts

[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

A Dream lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. The Seal of Salvation is no exception to that rule. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Salvation due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then none of their stats will be raised.

An improved version of the Seal of Salvation that Sonadora can construct for a Slumbered target. The Seal of Redemption is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Likes in order to fill them with happiness and a wish to become better. Compared to the vision its predecessor applies, this vision is more inspired and alluring for the target. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower a section of the target's stats, which can be any of the Hollow's choosing: Physical, Spiritual or Sensory. The maximum efficiency of this empowerment is dictated by Sonadora's Class, as seen below:

The most powerful Dream Sonadora can attribute to a Slumbered target. The Seal of Liberation is a short vision that is personalized by the target's Goals in order to fill them with the ultimate desire to become better. The vision in question is designed to be exceptionally-inspiring, typically resembling a future reality that may or may not become true. It can be applied to any target which has succumbed to the fog, though it is generally reserved to allies or beings that the Hollow believes to be beneficial to her cause. The effects of this Dream are meant to empower a target sufficiently enough for it to take a step forward in their natural evolution, so much so that they are to be treated a Class superior to their own for the next two posts.

If [b][font color="a497b2"]Judgement Call[/font][/b] has been used prior to the creation of the vision, this effect lasts for one more post.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses

[/b][/u]The Seal of Liberation is one of the most exhausting Dreams to apply to a target, and so requires not only utmost concentration, but also correct decision-making. Depending on the circumstances at hand, bringing this Dream to a target may either be the best course of action or the absolute worst thing that could be done. For example, bringing a being from Class 8 to Class 7 is not necessarily a bright idea. It is also fundamentally impossible to bring a Class 1 target to Class 0 with this Dream, as the power required to do so is not something that can be so easily conjured.

This Dream also follows the general rule of Dreams like any other. It lasts for a single post and must be experienced in its entirety for its effect to be applied to the target, which cannot be Sonadora. Although the target cannot be hurt while they are applied the Seal of Liberation due to their body's foggy state, their Dream can be interrupted all the same if the fog is somehow separated from their body. If this is ever done and the target becomes no longer Slumbered as a result of this, then their Class shall not be raised.

[spoiler]{Garden of Eden}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Garden of Eden

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Nightmare World Creation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500 (Apocalypse), 100 (Genesis)[b][/b]

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The construction of a Nightmare to be bestowed to a Slumbered target's mind. The Garden of Eden is from which all Nightmares come from. It is the realm which is reserved to all hostile targets which have fallen asleep while fighting Sonadora, and so can harbor more than a single target for a total of six posts. As a supernatural world which can only be accessed while Slumbered, it primarily takes the form of an environment morphed by the target's Fears, with its goal being either to torment a target into submission or outright killing them. There are two types of Nightmares that can be generated by the Garden of Eden:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Apocalypse:[/b] A variable Nightmare that can be generated by an ascended Sonadora which has become either an Adjuchas or a Vasto Lorde. Apocalypse worlds are ever-changing. They never seem to be right in nature and appear to have a literal mind of their own. Land becomes water, water becomes land, the sky bleeds and the cloud become stone. Nothing seems to make sense in these worlds, almost as if no laws apply, and it is in this chaos that these worlds strive in their madness inducement and killing intent.

[/li][li][b]Genesis:[/b] A static Nightmare that can be generated by Sonadora while she is a Stray or a Gillian. Genesis worlds, unlike Apocalypse worlds, are static in the sense that they do not change. They are fixed, immobile, and are tasked to house the Slumbered until they succumb to death or madness. In order to fulfill this goal, they will typically possess dangerous elements such as various traps to harm the target.[/li][/ul]

If[font color="a497b2"][b] Judgement Call[/b][/font] has been used prior to the creation of either of these worlds, they become much more dangerous in nature, seeing as the Hollow has direct control over every single one of their elements. Although this control is more subdued in Genesis worlds, seeing as she can mainly only control the traps in question in them, it is much more potent in Apocalypse worlds as she can downright shape the world as she sees fit. In a way, in either of them, she is to be considered a temporary God for as long as she remains within it.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Nightmares can only affect those that are Slumbered, meaning the ones that have been driven asleep by Sonadora's Daydreams or were already asleep to begin within the fog. So long as the target is only Embraced or plainly outside of the fog, it is fundamentally impossible for the Hollow to create them. If the Slumbered state is removed from their being at any point in time, they will be removed from the Garden of Eden and returned to the real world. A target can decide to break out of the Nightmare at any point in time if they possess a Strength of Will or a Calm Mind of 2 for a reiatsu fee depending on the type of world generated by the Garden. If it is a Genesis world, it will cost 500 reiatsu to remove the Slumbered state from themselves, while it will instead cost 2000 reiatsu if it is an Apocalypse world. This fee is respectively reduced to 250 and 1000 if the skill in question is at 3, and if it is at 4, they will respectively be reduced to 100 and 500.

[spoiler]{Fallen Angel}[b]
Technique Name: [/b]Fallen Angel

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Trauma Manifestation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]400[b] [/b](King), 80 (Duke), 30 (Prince)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The summoning of a being meant to torment the Slumbered target. Fallen Angels are creations of Sonadora which are meant to act as guards of the Garden of Eden. Their primordial task is to harm those which are condemned to the Garden, whether it be through mental or physical means. In order to complete this task, they take forms conforming to a target's Fears. They can be simple Humans which gravely terrorize the targets or, in the most intense of cases, abominable personifications of a concept or idea. These beings are to be categorized as such:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]King:[/b] The most powerful Fallen Angel that can be summoned by Sonadora after her ascension to Adjuchas. Kings are notable in the fact that they are amorphous. Their appearance is not entirely set in stone, almost as if it is always in question, and so their flesh often becomes a confusion of muscle and bone that appears otherworldly, alien. The abilities which they possess renders them powerful enough to be considered as a maximal Class 2, Non-Typed being with 1000 SP at their statistical disposition.

[/li][li][b]Duke:[/b] A stronger Fallen Angel which can be summoned by a Gillian Sonadora. Dukes possess a form that is slightly more intimidating in aspect. They will always have something that makes them more fearsome than a Prince, whether it be a particular Aura or a physical attribute of themselves. Unlike their lesser brethren, they possess a minor ability which renders them a combatant capable of being treated as a maximal Class 4 being, Non-Typed being with 500 SP at their statistical disposition.

[/li][li][b]Prince:[/b] A lesser Fallen Angel which can be summoned by a Stray Sonadora. Princes are beings which mainly are humanoid in nature, and if not humanoid, they instead are represented by smaller animals such as dogs or cats. They are purely physical beings devoid of any special abilities, and as such, they are to be considered as a combatant of a maximal Class of 6, Non-Typed being with 300 SP at their statistical disposition.
[/li][/ul]

All Fallen Angels exhume an aspect around them that provokes fear in the hearts of nearby Slumbered, enough so for them to be rather difficult to fight. They are not their Goddess, but they are more than enough to break the minds of those unable to resist them. Should Sonadora be present near them via the use of [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font], she can imbue them with additional power to make them more fearsome, making them a Class stronger than they should be.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Since they are part of the Garden of Eden, Fallen Angels cannot actually be used outside of Nightmares, meaning that they are useless against those who are not Slumbered. They can be killed like any other physical entity should someone be strong enough to face them, and once they are dead, no other Fallen Angel can replace them except one of their stronger brethren until the end of the Nightmare. For example, if a Prince dies, they can only be replaced by a Duke or a King. Additionally, due to their reliance on terror, those who possess a Lack of Fear skill can actively reduce their Class by simply resisting their fear inducement. A Lack of Fear of 2 reduces a Fallen Angel's Class by 1, one of 3 reduces it by 2, and one of 4 reduces it by 3. Since their class cannot be higher than Sonadora's own, this can practically turn their effectiveness into ashes.

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Vasto Lorde), 40 (Adjuchas), 15 (Gillian), 10 (Stray)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The shaping of Sonadora's own body within a Nightmare. As long as she is present within the Garden of Eden via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font], Sonadora is allowed to shape her body as much as the Nightmare itself as long as she possesses the will and the energy to do so. This shaping can be as simple as taking the appearance of a Human or animal, or as complex as becoming an outright celestial abomination the size of her Gillian self. The potency of this technique solely depends on her Class, as seen below:

[ul type="disc"][li][b]Vasto Lorde:[/b] Alien transformations (Enormous objects, Eldtrich creatures, etc.)
[/li][li][b]Adjuchas:[/b] Complex transformations (Large object, giant animal, etc.)
[/li][li][b]Gillian:[/b] Moderate transformations (Object, large animal, etc.)
[/li][li][b]Stray:[/b] Simple transformations (Human, Soul, small animal, etc.)
[/li][/ul]

[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses

[/b][/u]Although this is a technique that is rather simple in execution, the complexity of the shapeshifting can easily lead to an exorbitant spending of reiatsu, seeing as each transformation requires the initial amount of reiatsu to be used. The Hollow's original form also counts as a transformation, meaning that if too much reiatsu is spent, then Sonadora may be unable to return to it so long as she remains within the Nightmare. Additionally, this technique cannot be used outside of Nightmares or before activating [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font].

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]500/post (duration), 250/25m (AoE expansion)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The act of bringing Nightmares to reality. With the advent of her power, Sonadora realizes that she can bring about a Nightmare into the real world by changing the property of her fog in a certain area, causing it to act as a rift spreading the likeness of the Garden of Eden. In other words, in her own twisted fantasy, the creature brings Heaven on Earth. This rift is initially 25m in size, though can be expanded if further reiatsu is spent to create it. While this is in effect, the Hollow is allowed to use all of her Nightmare techniques against any targets that are not Slumbered. All of her techniques must also be treated as being under the effects of [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font] while this is being done.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses

[/b][/u]So long as the Garden of Eden is located within the real world via Heaven on Earth, all targets within the fog are ridden of the Slumbered state and instead become Embraced once more. Although Daydreams are not inaccessible during this time, they are unable to convey the Slumbered state any longer until the effects of Heaven on Earth come to an end. This practically disables Sonadora's ability to support allies with her Dreams. Additionally, since this expansion of the Garden of Eden is produced by the fog, it can be dispersed similarly to it through the use of a large amount of hot air.

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Admirer Creation

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 4

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250 (Armed), 100 (Unarmed)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The beginning of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with an increased amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into an Admirer, which is the first classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Admirers are among the least powerful Ascended under Sonadora's control. In hindsight, they appear to be normal without any physical attributes that makes them stand out; however, they can be driven by the creature to commit terrible acts of violence and hatred towards those that are unfortunate enough to be near them. Although they are somewhat aware that something is wrong about their state of being and that something must be done to rectify this problem, they are unable to currently assert what that aforementioned problem on their own, seeing as they are unable to recall their last meeting with Sonadora.

As the weakest of the Ascended, Admirers will mostly fight bare-handed or with a normal weapon, though they will at times wield special weaponry that allows them to fight in battle. These specific weapons were accursed by the Hollow during their sleep, infected by their reiatsu almost as much as their owner's very minds. This practically allows Admirers to spread the Hollow's reiatsu to awoken targets to create more of themselves should they be Slumbered, and in some profound long-term cases, even Hollowfication.

All Admirer NPCs must be considered a Class above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Admirer PCs are exempted from this boost.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

There are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:


[ol type="decimal"][li]The target must be Slumbered. No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to create an Ascended while the target is awake.

[/li][li]The target must not be from a race which suffers from poisoning upon being exposed to Hollow reiatsu, such as Quincy.

[/li][li]The target must possess a Class equal or inferior to Sonadora's; if not, they will effortlessly resist her reiatsu with minor discomfort.

[/li][li]The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font] while the process is ongoing.  If the target's Class is two units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.

[/li][li]The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unable to fight any longer. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.[/li][/ol][div]

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into an Admirer, after which the only way the target will be able to rid themselves of the condition will be to either red their soul of the Hollow reiatsu in some way or another, or meet someone capable of doing the same. If the target is a PC and is near Sonadora while they are an Admirer, they can resist her orders for two posts so long as they possess a Strength of Will of 1. This resistance is upgraded by a post each time they raise their Strength of Will until it has reached 4, in which case they can effortlessly resist all of her orders until treatment.

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

The middle of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with a notable amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into a Worshiper, which is the second classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Worshipers are beings which have been corrupted enough by the reiatsu to start changing both in mind and body. They are mentally unwell, proclaiming themselves as servants of the Hollow that will follow her without question, and typically are very hostile to anyone who they may believe to be against their master's wishes. Even in appearance, they appear crooked and unstable as their bodies enter a sort of metamorphosis of Sonadora's choosing from  the list below:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Crusader: [/b]A large Worshiper which are typically characterized by a loud voice, and an excess of muscle tissue that makes them appear bulky and perhaps bloated. Compared to normal Humans, their upper body is much larger than their lower body, which makes them appear like an overgrown mutant among the general civilian populace. Due to this, they are strong, able to destroy defenses with ease. A larger jaw is especially prominent within this type.

[/li][li][b]Pilgrim:[/b] A nimble Worshiper which is more so identified by its thinner frame and excessively-sized nails that are as sharp as blades. Their lower bodies is are prominent due to leg muscle growth which allows them to reach faster speeds, and they generally appear twitchy, as though they almost cannot handle their own reflexes. Long hair is especially prominent within this type.

[/li][li][b]Priest:[/b] A small Worshiper which is more so identified by its larger eyes and head, both signs of higher intellect. Despite their upper and lower bodies being generally unimpressive in stature, the knowledge that they have seemingly acquired from their transformation makes them more capable of casting spells and magic. If they do not have access to those things, they instead appear more accurate due to their strange bloodshot eyes.

[/li][li][b]Devotee:[/b] A basic Worshiper who possesses lesser attributes from all of its brethren while also looking the most Human. They can easily blend in crowds and appear normal despite their strange and alien beliefs, but they can also defend themselves in a fight very well if need be. Despite this, they prefer to stick close to their brethren and follow their directives whenever they do battle.
[/li][/ul]

All Worshiper NPCs must be considered two Classes above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Worshiper PCs are exempted from this boost. Additionally, this technique can be used on an Admirer to transform them into a Worshiper.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Like the Celestial Blessing, there are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:


[ol type="decimal"][li]The target must not have been transformed into an Admirer within the same thread prior to this further Ascension. If the target is an NPC, this condition can be ignored.

[/li][li]The target must be Slumbered. No matter what, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to create an Ascended while the target is awake.

[/li][li]The target must not be from a race which suffers from poisoning upon being exposed to Hollow reiatsu, such as Quincy.

[/li][li]The target must possess a Class equal or inferior to Sonadora's; if not, they will effortlessly resist her reiatsu with minor discomfort.

[/li][li]The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call[/b][/font] while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is three units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.

[/li][li]The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unable to fight any longer. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.[/li][/ol]

Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into a Worshiper, after which the only way the target will be able to rid themselves of the condition will be to meet someone capable of ridding their soul of the Hollow reiatsu in some way or another. If the target is a PC, they can resist Sonadora's influence on their mind for two posts so long as they possess a Strength of Will of 2. This resistance is upgraded by a post each time they raise their Strength of Will until it has reached 4, in which case they can effortlessly resist all of her orders until treatment, though their body remains deformed in the meanwhile.

What one would consider to be the final stage of an individual's Ascension. Sonadora fills a target with an impressive amount of her corrupted reiatsu to transform it into an Emulator, which is the final classification given to those afflicted by the Ascended state. Emulators are, in essence, Worshipers that have been so infected by the creature's reiatsu that their souls is starting to be overtaken by it, causing their bodies to crumble from their energy and their Souls to start transforming into Hollows. This transformation, unless Sonadora especially wills it so, breaks their minds entirely into an insane mess of incoherent preaching and dedication to what they now believe to be their ultimate deity. Like Worshipers, they too possess many variants that their creator can choose to transform them into:


[ul type="disc"][li][b]Throne: [/b]Especially large Emulators that were specifically designed to harbor immense physical strength. They are slow and clumsy, beast-like, but their bulky bodies allow them to destroy a great amount of things in their way with a swipe of the hand while also serving as resistant shields for their fellow kin.

[/li][li][b]Cherubim:[/b] An Emulator granted the ability to reach great speed and velocity. Their bodies are slim and insect in nature, with wings protruding from their back. They possess the sharpest fangs and claws among all of the Emulators, allowing them to dissect and devour Souls the fastest among them as well.

[/li][li][b]Seraphim:[/b] Magically-inclined Emulators which are pudgy and toad-like in nature. They are small and seemingly insignificant, though they possess a shocking amount of knowledge and potency in the magical arts. Their Ceros are the most impressive among the entirety of the Emulators, so much so that they can be more destructive than Thrones if let be.

[/li][li][b]Angel:[/b] A general Emulator with no significant purpose. Among the Emulators, they are the most "normal" Hollow, as normal as a Hollow could ever possibly be. Most Angels typically act as minions for their brethren and are generally even-more mindless than them, acting more like animals than any of them.
[/li][/ul]

All Emulator NPCs must be considered three Classes above their own once they are Ascended, with the maximum cap being Class 1. Emulator PCs are exempted from this boost. Half of the souls consumed by Emulators under Sonadora's control are automatically absorbed by her being when she is near them.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

As to be expected, there are a few conditions Sonadora must meet in order to successfully process this technique:


[ol type="decimal"][li]The target must have already been transformed into a Worshiper prior to this further Ascension.

[/li][li]The target must not have been transformed into a Worshiper within the same thread prior to this further Ascension. If the target is an NPC, this condition can be ignored.

[/li][li]The target must be Slumbered. Even so far into the Ascension process, it is absolutely impossible for the Hollow to complete this aforementioned process while the target is awake.

[/li][li]The target must be in the presence of Sonadora during the Ascension, meaning that she must be at their side via [font color="a497b2"][b]Judgement Call [/b][/font]while the process is ongoing. If the target's Class is four units below hers, the process can be completed without Sonadora's presence.

[/li][li]The target must be completely submitted to Sonadora both physically and mentally, or, in other words, unwilling to fight her. So long as the target is capable of showing resistance, it will be able to resist the Ascension and remain Slumbered. This does not apply to nameless NPCs.

[/li][/ol]
Only once all of these conditions have been met that a target can be transformed into an Emulator, after which the target will forever remain under Sonadora's subservience as a Hollow. If they are a PC, a Strength of Will of 4 will allow them to break from her influence, though they will remain as Hollows until they die or their state is somehow reversed to its origin.

[b]Technique Type:[/b] Custom Hollow Technique | Self-Affliction

[b]Technique Element:[/b] None

[b]Usable by:[/b] Hollow

[b]Class:[/b] 1-7

[b]Technique Reiatsu Cost: [/b]250/post (Vasto Lorde), 40/post (Adjuchas), 20/post (Gillian), 10/post (Stray)

[b][u]Technique Description and Effects[/u][/b]

A self-affliction meant to lead Sonadora to greater power within her realm. The creature closes the eyes behind her mask before forcefully bringing herself into Slumber, which allows her spirit to leave her body via the fog surrounding her. Once this is done, she can directly invade a Slumbered target's Dream or Nightmare by moving her spirit directly into the target's foggy self. If this was a successful endeavor, all of Sonadora's stats doubles and she is to be considered a Class above her current one so long as she remains within the fantasy that she has created for the target. Should she ever consider it to be necessary, the creature can remove her spirit from the fantasy at any time in order to return to the real world.


[u][b]Drawbacks and Weaknesses[/b][/u]

Unlike those which are Slumbered, Sonadora's body does not become foggy while the state is assigned to her soul, rendering her vulnerable whenever she is within a Dream or Nightmare. Although she can still detect others within her fog, she cannot protect herself on her own so long as she remains within this state. The sheer amount of power that she gains while she is present in a fantasy is also taxing and rather difficult to control, preventing her from remaining present within it for too long.

This technique is a basic stale for a Hollow's ability to slide in and out of the valley of screams at will when it is hunting or stalking prey. By gliding in and out of the space used by techniques like Garganta or Descorrer, a hollow can get around quickly. This technique operates similarly to a stepping technique, but only moves at 5x the user's speed. However, the user weaves through rips in the fabric of whatever world they are in, and as such the hollows exits, and then re-enters at the destination, Hollows do not lose awareness of the world as they move through an Ulcera, and can return to the material world mid-step in response to a threat or opportunity. This technique does not take up a Technique slot.

Memorable Figures

• Unknown Man: A man from what Sonadora assumes to be from her distant past. Her memories of him are happy and plentiful, so much so that this person is among the only ones that she could perhaps consider to be one of her Human parents. No matter whatever vision she may remember of him, she often sees him standing tall above her in an armor of steel and cloth. He was visibly kind to her, caring and loving with a bright smile seemingly always plastered on his face, so much so that warmth often fills the monster's soul whenever she recalls his face. Unfortunately, within these memories is also a particular recollection of what resembles a sight of him lying on the floor with a teary gaze and a bloodied chest. The warmth, then, becomes pain, and with that pain, the memory then fades into obscurity once again, preventing her from understanding it in its entirety.
  
  
• Unknown Woman: A woman from what Sonadora assumes to be from her distant past. Unlike the man which seemingly is very present within her memories, this woman is not as present within them. Her presence is few and far between, so much so that her appearance has faded with time into a blur. Whenever she remembers her with some sort of clarity, no warmth ever follows the wake of the vision, instead only a sort of indifference, almost as if the person was nothing more than a stranger to her. Worse yet, anger at times follow the visions, though Sonadora cannot explain why that is. At times, she becomes so enraged by the memory of the woman that she finds herself cursing her aging mind. What could this Human have possibly done to cause her so much pain? Unfortunately, it seems as though she will not gain answers from this easily, or perhaps ever.
  
  
• Yamamoto Kazumi: A particular Human, once-nicknamed "Ano" by his peers, which Sonadora took advantage of. As the eldest son of his family, Kazumi was held in very high regards for a long time by his parents. He was a hard-working man who once believed he could eventually become something great. However, after a series of horrible downturns in his life shortly after he was fired from his job, he quickly grew addicted to video games and became a recluse. The only times he ever found victory was at an arcade in Akihabara which he visited on a weekly basis, until he met a certain woman going by the name of Nakajima Kimiko. Left downtrodden by the constant defeats he received from her, he allowed his weakened mind to be invaded by Sonadora during his sleep, causing his nights to be filled with horrible nightmares. Eventually, the nightmares grew so powerful that his soul grew corrupted by the Hollow's ability, causing him to become her slave. In an attempt to deploy what she refers to as "The Journey to Enlightenment", she had the man succumb to anger and murder his rival. It is assumed that he currently serves jail time within Tokyo's Detention House where he awaits his judgement in death row, though it is said that he now resembles a living corpse. Somehow, despite Sonadora's return to her Stray form, he remains loyal to her.
  
  
• André Belair: An enigma of a man who is responsible for the incomplete theft of Sonadora's power which has rendered multiple centuries of Hollow work null and void. Although they have only met once, Sonadora currently believes this man to be her very worst enemy, even greater so than the entirety of the Shinigami who remain within the distant Soul Society. She does not understand the motive behind his action and does not comprehend whatever his ultimate goals may be, but he has proven in his robbery of her innate strength that he is an individual that is capable of challenging her celestial desires. One day, she shall meet him again, and once that day comes forth, there shall be nothing left of him that may ever challenge her ambition again.
  
  
• Nakajima Kimiko: A young Human woman Sonadora currently officially refers to as "The Pawn" within "Cambio". From what the Hollow observed during the corruption of Yamamoto Kazumi's soul, Kimiko was a tomboy who seemed to be as avid when it came to gaming as the man was. She often visited the arcades of Akihabara just like the man and she proved to be a great competitor to the players there much to the Hollow's general disinterest in the virtual sport. However, once she proved to be a source of great frustration for Kazumi, the Hollow realized that she could accomplish the first step towards her great project with these two particular Humans. Upon finishing her corruption of Kazumi, she had him murder Kimiko via a knife imprinted with her monstrous reiatsu, which caused it to be transferred into the young woman's soul as she died. The woman has since then moved on to Soul Society in which the beast hopes she will one day succumb to Hollowfication.
  

0) I, The Mask

Immortality is often depicted negatively in works of fiction. An endless journey from point A to a point B so far away that it might as well not exist, it is seen as the stagnation and long-term degradation of the soul hidden underneath the golden veil of eternal life. Vampires, werewolves, gods, conscious maledictions, automatons and other artificial beings... All of these things are condemned to a life of perpetuity, whether they asked for it or were simply born as such. Some require the sacrifice of others to persist, some do not and simply cannot die, yet they ultimately all share one thing in common: the risk of forgetting everything they have achieved in their past, the challenge of remembering everything they have ever done that the soul ultimately cannot achieve. Eternal beings eventually forget their pasts, forget themselves, and if there is a true being away from fiction that can certainly be considered forgetful, it is certainly the Hollow.

The creatures of Hueco Mundo have always been forgetful in nature ever since they were transformed into what they are now. Corrupted by their desire to feed and accomplish their primordial goal within the afterlife, the pain gnawing at their eternal bones eventually breaks the mind and turns it into nothing more than a vessel for a worthless beast devoid of nothing beyond hunger, devoid of memories beyond their first meal of the day. However, as unfortunate as their fate may be, they may be considered to be the luckiest ones there are, for there are some Hollows who, in their quest to achieve their goals, hold on for just a bit longer, and so end up forever afflicted by the challenge of forgetfulness. Rarely does even a Vasto Lorde remember what they were so many years, decades or perhaps centuries ago, and although some of them may or may not care about this, there are a certain few who very much do.

Sonadora has had a tumultuous life among her monstrous peers. She saw horrors defying comprehension, committed unspeakable acts of violence, and ate many souls of which were mostly comprised of the innocents'. She grew from Stray to Gillian, secured her self to become an Adjuchas and then fell from grace during the span of about five centuries. In this evolution, it was only natural for her to slowly start forgetting her Human life, what she was once before. What was once clear now has become hazy, and some of the hazier memories have now grown dark and distant. Despite this, there are times in which there is a semblance of clarity in the midst within the fog that is slowly consuming her mind, and through it, she can vaguely recall what she once was, though it has been so long that she can barely even remember the appearance she sported as a Human.

The collection of chapters below - namely the first to the fourth - represent an approximation of what Sonadora may have been in the past according to her memories. This approximation was generated by the Twelfth Division of Gotei 13 shortly after one of their members battled with the beast. Some details may be confusing and some clearer than others, but they ultimately depict the canvas which is currently present within the Hollow's mind. She may perhaps never be able to properly render these details more accurate by herself, but no matter what, she will strive to do as such, for she believes that there are many things to be learned from the past.

1) Clad in Shadows

A long time ago, the land of Spain was very different from what it is today. Like many countries of Europe at the time, it was a feudal community governed by royals and nobles far removed from common society. The rich reigned supreme with the power of faith by their side, while the weak remained firmly at the bottom, unable to bring themselves from the crevices of poverty. Between these two extremes were the knights and soldiers governed by the strong, with the most of them slowly being converted into the regiments of the infamous Spanish Inquisition. It was, to say the least, a time of change for the country, a time in which the Spaniard empire grew significantly with power and influence as they swept through Europe and, eventually, the Americas. However, it was also a time in which many of its citizens faced repercussions, punishment and in some cases, even death from the hands of the inquisition. The reason? Heresy. Unfortunately, heresy came in many forms in the eyes of the law, as it is proven with the birth of a particular child from a particular mother.

There was a woman in a certain village who was presumed to be cursed by God. From birth all the way to adulthood, she was an unlucky girl who could not make ends meet. Everyday, she worked to feed her disease-stricken family, and for almost every job she took, there would always be an issue somehow caused during her work. Plants would be accidentally drowned, crops would be torn to pieces and even animals would end up dead within her home. She would at times even suffer injury from these troubles such as odd scratches and falls. No matter the amount of times she prayed to her Lord to better her life, no solution came, no betterment, nothing, and in this supposed abandonment, she grew impatient with her faith and tired, so much so that she resorted to prostitution in order to gain enough money to separate herself from her bedridden family. For years, she worked and worked, avoiding the evolving inquisition at all cost as she did so, and for years, her "curse" somehow disappeared.

One day, her work lead her to pregnancy. Having never wished for a child due to the trouble it would bring for her work, the woman awaited her birth with ire and frustration. She hated the feeling of becoming weaker and fatter by the month, and she hated those who congratulated her for her pregnancy even more, for she believed them unable to understand her predicament. Eventually, the pregnancy kept her from going to work and she remained at home. Although she had collected enough money to survive for at least a few months, the last days of her pregnancy left her body weak and frail, so much so that she could barely move. Nevertheless, she persisted, and eventually, a girl of her conception was born. No recorded name was given to the baby at this point in time, presumably because the mother was in such pain that she was too exhausted and too angry with its existence to name the child. For studying purposes, those of the Twelfth Division decided to refer to her as Sofia from this point on.

Upon her birth, Sofia's mother already proved to be a terrible parent. Barely giving her any attention, she most often had her be kept by one of her coworkers. Whenever she was faced with the task of parenting her on her own, she always acted impatiently and brashly with her, so much so that she only did the bare minimum in order to not be shunned by her fellow villagers. Most of the food and milk given to Sofia did not come from her mother, but rather simply anybody else who tended to her. This went on for six miserable years during which the child grew secluded, feeling as though she was not like the other girls; after all, if her parent hates her so much, than there must be a reason, right? This confusion led her to become more mature, and eventually, more self-sufficient as she purposefully ran away from her home to go work at other people's farms or shops more than a few times. Her mother gave no care about this at first, though by the time this started to become a repeated occasion, she decided that it was enough and simply kicked the child out of the house. She was tolerated no more.

Taken aback by this putrid selfishness, the child thus wandered about the village searching for food and water. She lived the life of a scavenger, a young traveler within her own village. She worked all the jobs she could do even at her young age barring the work of her awful mother without a care of the price given, and attempted her best to complete them all no matter the danger without realizing how much further she was secluding herself away from the community by doing so. Even so, it was difficult. Her body was frail, too frail to commit to any heavy lifting, and she bled easily. It only led to further misery. Too poor to purchase herself anything noteworthy, too weak to work at her full potential and too young to own a home, she nevertheless persisted for at least about a year or two until her body grew too weak to continue. By then, she could barely walk, and eventually, on a faithful Sunday, she collapsed in the main square of the village.

She woke up the next day in the home of a man who tended to her hunger and injuries. The man in question - a soldier of the inquisition whose name shall be referenced from now on as Esteban - had found her collapsed body and had decided to bring her to his abode out of fear for her safety. He was a kind man, a knight loyal to his country, and he believed any and all to be under the jurisdiction of the Lord's benediction, no matter who this person may be so long as they have not committed any grave crimes against their fellow men and women. For that reason alone, the man first asked if the girl wanted to be returned to her home, since he simply did not believe her punishment to be reasonable. Upon hearing her refusal to do so, however, he then asked if she wanted to at least stay with him away from the streets of the village. Although she was at first mistrustful of his word, she eventually accepted it, and from there on out, she remained with him for the rest of her Human life.

For the following decade, Sofia lived what could be considered to be close to a normal upbringing. Although Esteban was a good person and she was the closest thing to a true parent to her, he was also nonetheless an inquisitor and so was not often home. She took care of the house, played with the toys that were given to her, and read books within her caretaker's personal library, learning how to read by herself in the process. Once she reached her teenage years, she was gifted a simple collar by Esteban that he was able to afford with his knightly salary, and she decided to keep it ever since. During this time, it almost felt as though the girl was finally going to be able to live the life which she always thought she had been missing on for during her childhood. She was starting to make friends and although she was more mature, she was growing less and less secluded, enough so to start integrating herself within the community more properly. Now that she was older, she could also do harder tasks as well, ridding her of her previous problem.

But then... she started dreaming.

2) Stand Ablaze

Sofia has never been one to dream often. In fact, even during the toughest times of her childhood, she never really dreamed of anything noteworthy. There were no peaceful adventures to imaginary lands or dreadful treks through a variety of monstrous worlds. At best, she only dreamed maybe once per year, and all of those dreams were of no importance whatsoever to her in any shape or form. However, once she reached adulthood roughly around the age of 20, she experienced a multitude of strange dreams in which she somehow felt extrinsically connected to. Every night, she would dream of being located within a world completely alien to her in every way. At times, it would be an unending forest devoid of life other than her own, and at other times it would simply be an infinite road. Worse yet, there were even times in which she stood above an endless sky, standing on what seems to be simply air. She paid no mind to them at first as she did not want to alert Esteban of these strange dreams; after all, what is the point of worrying about something that does not really exist?

It was once she started seeing people in these dreams that the nature of the situation grew a bit more pressing. At first, she merely only thought of them as plain apparitions, images of her friends and acquaintances that were not really there to begin with, so she conversed with them with pleasant surprise. Most of these people were individuals that she has already met while she was awake like Esteban, so really, she did not find any of that to be too unusual. Soon after, however, she started seeing people that she had never met before in her life or had really only seen them once before. Priests, soldiers of the inquisition, even some of the nobles who lived nearby. The more people she met this way, the more she grew wary of the nature of these dreams. She felt as though there was something strange about them, something unnatural that even God would find to be worrisome, yet she could not answer why that is.

The worst part about these dreams was that, somehow, the people she met in them were able to remember her. They could remember her face, the clothes she wore, and what she would do with them during those dreams. Hearing Esteban bring this matter during a conversation they were having during diner was already unsettling for the woman as it was, but hearing friends and even some of the people at the church recall her being there in their dreams was almost terrifying for the girl. There was no way for her to explain how this was happening or even why, so the only reason she could think of during that time as she spoke to these people was simply to refer to it as a coincidence. Unfortunately, the uncanny nature of this situation was bringing people further and further away from her, destroying the friendships and relationships that she had cultivated over the course of the previous years in the process. The more this happened, the more unhappy and terrified Sofia became. She was starting to believe that these occurrences were the product of her mother's curse, the work of God somehow punishing her for being born the child of a sinner.

And then, suddenly, she met her mother during one faithful night in the wreckage of her old home. It only took a few moments together for the vile woman to start throwing obscenities at Sofia. There was no hesitation in the vile words she threw at her, no remorse in calling her daughter an over-privileged brat living with a worthless puppet of the inquisition, and in her anger, she attempted to leave the dream as her aforementioned daughter could only do so much as endure her judgement in silence. Unfortunately, she could not do such a thing due to the nature of Sofia's dream, and so she became loud and demanding. "Release me from this prison this instant or I will put you in your place!" She had screamed then without realizing that her daughter was not even aware of how to do such a thing, and upon hearing of her inability to do so, she immediately lunged at her daughter in an attempt to convince her by force. Horrified, Sofia immediately retaliated by naturally stopping the fist coming towards her face with her hand.

The next day, her mother woke with a mangled left hand so damaged that all of the bones within it had been left fractured. She could barely move it without feeling a excruciating amount of pain, and she could not use it for any tasks, rendering her unable to work any longer. Left horrified by this injury, she immediately barged into the main street of the village to reach out for the nearest patrol of soldiers from the Spanish Inquisition and report her daughter for witchcraft. It did not take long for them to be convinced of the deed, for the sight of the injury was enough to cause those who had seen Sofia in their dreams to immediately be left petrified by the sight. The soldiers left right away for Esteban's residence, and it was there that they found the girl hiding in her bedroom. They carried her out of the home without a care for her clear panic and terror from what was to come, and in her cries, she attempted to call for help as she was dragged to the village's tribunal.

As she was judged for witchcraft, her mother could be heard in the back of the tribunal calling for the execution of the girl to be done as soon as possible, as she was a danger to the entirety of the village. Sofia could not believe anything of what was happening. In an instant, her life had gone from good to terrible and then to worse so quickly. She couldn't even understand how it could have gotten this bad. She was pleading to the judges, pleading to the inquisitors to not send her to the pyre, but they did not listen. No one listened. They all wanted her gone out of sheer superstition. Even the ones whom she once called friends wanted her to be gone from this world and never come back again all because she had done something she never wanted to do in the first place. It felt so unfair, so painfully unfair, so much so that she could not stop the tears from flowing. The sadness was overwhelming her in this instant, and for a brief moment as she was brought to the stake and swiftly positioned onto it, she had lost all hope.

And then, Esteban appeared. Bewildered by what he was seeing, he attempted to gather answers from the nearby inquisitors to try to get a grasp onto what was going on. That in of itself was not surprising, seeing as by that point, Sofia might as well be considered his adopted daughter. He felt that the accusation of witchcraft was a farce and that she had done nothing wrong, that there was nothing that proved she was the one responsible for the deed other than the word of a mad woman. Usually, anyway, such accusations take days to fully settle and are not to be conducted so quickly so as to absolutely confirm a crime was indeed at play. Unfortunately, although a few of the villagers' belief slightly faltered, the reaffirmation of the inquisitors' decision followed by the howling of the mother was enough to render any of the knight's words moot, and in horror, he watched as they slowly set fire to Sofia's pyre and the girl started screaming for help.

Instinctively, or perhaps out of an insane wish to protect her, the man drew his sword and immediately skewered the throats of the soldiers that were blocking the path between himself and Sofia. The villagers balked at the violence and immediately took a step back as the man then attempted to fight the other soldiers nearing the ones he just sentenced to death, all the while the fire nearing the girl's feet grew hotter and hotter. So entrenched in his belief that God would never wish for such a thing to occur, he delivered thrusts after thrusts to what he now considered to be his enemies, all the while Sofia screamed for him to stop and run away. However, he audibly refused, refusing to let her die here in vain. He continued to fight against the soldiers and even some of the villagers who dared come close to him, though eventually, he was surrounded and promptly killed on the spot. There was not even a scream, for his lungs had been punctured so many times that he could not even muster a breath any longer as he fell to the ground and died.

Heartbroken, Sofia stared at her caretaker's fallen body. The shock was such that she did not notice that the flames had reached her own and was now starting to incinerate her to the core. Tears of sadness flowed from her face against the flames, and slowly, she died with her mind so hurt by the death that she could not even muster a scream. Eventually, the burning sensation ceased and she simply fell forward onto the ground, emotionally unconscious. About a minute later, however, as she heard the crowd walking away, she slowly raised herself from the ground and stared as the people walked away. Somehow, she understood that she was dead, for she was aware she should not be standing here right now. Her spiritual body was ugly and disgusting, skinless, hairless, burned to the crisp. She felt pain, pain from everywhere, especially that broken chain attached to her chest, yet she could not care about any of them. No, all she cared about was what just happened. No one had listened to them. No one had cared for them. They were now moving on to their daily lives, and that wretched filth in the back with her broken hand seemed gleeful about it too.

A few moments later, the screaming came. It was the loudest she had screamed, a disgusting noise left distorted by the burns in her spiritual throat. The pain in her chest exploded then as the screams grew louder in intensity, an expression of her pain and suffering turned into utter anger and hate. Even as she saw mouths consume the chain and bring her more pain, she only screamed louder, enough so for a few of the villagers to audibly wonder about what that noise was all about. She did not see Esteban, did not see her friends, did not even attempt to conform to any logic she was once chained to as her screams continued further. All she saw instead was red and rage, a sea of villagers and a few inquisitors who she wanted to punish, who she wanted to instill her revenge upon. As the screams grew louder and the people around her eventually grew aware of the screams, the chain finally had reached its base, and once this occurred, a blast came from Sofia's body, sending dust flying in the air.

Sonadora was born.

3) Conscious Insanity

From that point on, what happened following the execution of Sofia and her awakening into a Hollow could only be described as a torrent of unending violence and chaos without any rhyme or reason, as much of it was not fueled by hunger, but rather solely by sheer hatred for anything which stood in her way, most particularly Humans. This was so much so that even the person who recorded much of her history has declared that any approximation done during this time period has proven to be notably difficult. The number of deaths estimated during this time has been incredibly challenging to ascertain as the nature of the Hollow's ability sometimes prevents one from differentiating the work of a Hollow to plain common disease back in the day that could kill a Human relatively easily, such as the plague. Despite this, there are a few details that are easier to identify than most during this time, many of which mostly relies again upon guesses and historical hypothesis.

For one, it has now been widely accepted by the Gotei 13 that the village which once housed Sofia's soul fell against Sonadora, and so is why it is to this day still considered by modern Spaniards to be a haunted place despite the limited amount of actual Pluses being present there. Even today, it is the one place which suffered the most physical casualties from the Hollow, as the villagers' inability to see her and react against her prevented them from defending themselves against her natural weaponry despite the latter's meager nature. Almost all of the villagers died and had their souls consumed by the creature in this event, including the few patrols of the Spanish Inquisition which were there to oversee the burning, and Sofia's mother whose body had been so mangled upon death that it was never found intact. It is unclear as to what happened to Esteban's soul shortly after his death, but it is theorized that it was unconsciously consumed by Sonadora during her rampage. The stench of blood and death left in the wake of the massacre could be smelled from a mile away, and the fog which surrounded it transformed it into a literal ghost town for at least two or three days before it subsided. Oddly enough, it seemed as though there had been signs of confrontation with another Hollow during this massacre, though limited knowledge and reconnaissance of the area at this point in time rendered any chance of possibly identifying this mysterious opponent currently moot.

For two, it has also been accepted that the Hollow never acted in such a physical way after this massacre, for she then decided to instead invest its time in perpetrating its terrible acts via her ability rather than through physical means. Almost all of the deaths recorded during that period of time were not done physically with the exception of a certain few here and there. Due to lack of the experience at the time in dealing with such a foe, many Shinigami fought against the Hollow and failed to kill her or even do so much as approach her appropriately. It is unclear as to how many rookies were lost during this time as, again, the passage of time has left any information gathered during that time very limited. It is at the very least presumed to be a significant number, one that was enough to eventually convince some of the higher-ups of the Gotei 13 at the time to send in a few notable officers. Unfortunately, they too did not come back.

For three, most of those that aware of her now are also aware that the Hollow did not remain in Spain, most likely because the bubonic plague was causing more deaths across the entirety of Europe and so caused more souls to appear in more-populated countries such as France and Germany. As she grew in power and evolved into something more dangerous, a Gillian, she instead moved towards the East in hopes of consuming these souls. From weather analysis and predictions recorded over the course of the last few centuries which passed in the Living World, it is presumed that her fog remained within feudal Europe for three and a half centuries - with it having remained within the territories of modern-day Russia and Kazakhstan for two of these centuries - before it eventually reached China and Mongolia, and finally, modern-day North Korea shortly before the beginning of the First World War. The fog would not always remain present within the Living World as, sometimes, it would instead appear within Hueco Mundo, but it was very present there during the times in which Humanity suffered most from conflict and disease. By then, it had grown large enough to appear visible from a high-enough altitude, enough so to baffle modern Human meteorologists. 

At a certain point during this terrible voyage of death and suffering, the fog which was once been constantly expelled from the Gillian's body suddenly became much smaller altogether, enough so that it was barely visible from above anymore. It was only then that the worst was confirmed to have happened: Sonadora had transcended her mindless nature as a Gillian and instead ascended into the likes of the Adjuchas.

4) Come Clarity

The Gillian's ascension was realized during a time in which Korea wasn't really Korea at all, but rather instead a country conquered and turned into a colony by the Japanese. The land was mostly occupied by farmers and peasants who were supervised by soldiers of the Japanese empire, all of which were tasked to oversee the annexation and assimilation of the Korean populace. Due to this and the many wars which preceded this state of affairs, the entirety of the nation was unsurprisingly still massively in development. Superior technology was mostly only used by the annexing military while the peasants remained within their farms tired, poor and barely able to scrape by. Some were forced to join the military to make ends meet, others went to sell antiques from the previous conflicts. A few sometimes attempted to rebel against their occupants, especially whenever they heard of their leaders being either suddenly poisoned or assassinated, though they were swiftly and mercilessly shot down. Such was life in Korea back then, and so they proved to be the perfect grounds for the Gillian's evolution.

When the creature arrived to the northern borders of the country, she had grown slow and unstable due to the massive amount of souls she had consumed in her journey. Her travels were brash and uncertain, perhaps even random, for she only followed the scent of nearby souls and nothing else. More often than not, she would remain in Hueco Mundo whenever the nearby souls became unimpressive to her, though by the time she reached Korea, she mostly remained within the Living World to feast on the poor and the powerless. Those within the northern villages, mere husks left barely standing by the previous wars, were almost immediately consumed by the Gillian the moment she appeared near their homes. There was barely any resistance to be made as their minds descended into insanity from the power of the uncontrollable nightmares provided to them. A few Shinigami at times attempted to take care of her, though they too fell. It was like attempting to fight an impenetrable wall that just kept moving along.

However, one night, as the Gillian destroyed yet another village, she was hit with an epiphany that forced her to return to Hueco Mundo. There, she battled her senses in the middle of the desert with trashes and screams. In one way or another, a soul amongst the ones that formed her body screamed the loudest among them all. It was a soul of conviction, a soul which sought control and domination, the primordial entity. The cracking of bones could be heard from miles away as the enormous beast grew smaller, more refined, so much so that the bones in question started protruding from the very skin. A few Hollows watched the transformation unfold from a distance as though ready to pounce onto her at any moment, though by the time the aforementioned shift reached its conclusion, they grew hesitant. From the vanishing form of the once-Gillian was made a horrific Adjuchas, a monster cloaked by the fog emanating from her body. The nearby creatures, in their hesitation, did not stand a chance.

As she feasted on the bodies of her fallen brethren, Sonadora remained quiet throughout. The taste was awful, as to be expected from Hollow souls, though it was not the reason why she remained so quiet during the feast. Rather, she did so because she could not recall much of her past. She had successfully reacquired control of her body, but the cost in doing so had been significant, for her memory had been fractured in the process. The sheer effort of becoming herself again had brought the fog from her body to her mind. Her Human life had become a distant blur, the ones related to it even blurrier, and the crimes she has committed as a monster downright entirely forgotten. She was no longer Gillian, but at the same time, she was also no longer the Human she once was. The sheer fury which once fueled her was barely there anymore, instead replaced by resentment for Humanity and its guardians, perhaps maybe simple disgust. This pause made her think, made her ponder about the matter, until she eventually came to a conclusion. There was no use for anger anymore. Now, she will instead attempt to be something better than her previous self.

This mindset followed her as she returned from Hueco Mundo back into Korea in order to understand the abilities she inherited in her evolution, and so, for a few more years, the people of the poor country suffered further. She quickly realized the potency of this new ability, and in doing so, she allowed herself to use the land as a testing ground, something to use for experiments and training. She used her powers more sparingly during that time in order to keep the Shinigami's attention away from herself in the process, and in doing so, she provided seemingly-endless fear to the Korean and the Japanese colonialists. Despite the reduced amount of direct casualties from Sonadora herself, the nature of her powers brought many to unknowingly serve her and murder for her. Due to the times in which this occurred, many Shinigami then believed this to only be a sign of rebellious Koreans growing more desperate against the Japanese force while the First World War raged on. It was a mistake that cost the lives of a few more officers who were unable to trace her accordingly, including some of Soul Society's finest.

The Adjuchas remained in Korea for a small while after that out of sheer curiosity. Her hunger satisfied by her abilities, she grew more patient and studious as she watched Humans persecute and commit atrocities to one another. She witnessed the effects of the global war onto the people of Korea, then witnessed the effects of the second, and every time she did, she grew more disgusted by Humanity, more disconnected. Her power and current self prevented her from believing there was any good in these people, anything noteworthy. As terrible as her appearance may seem to be to others, she found the ugliness of the Human heart more potent in comparison. Every being shot to death, blown to smithereens, and tortured before their peers convinced her further of the terribleness of Humanity, as it seemed that no matter where she went, death prevailed above all. By the time the Korean War came to its end and Korea officially became two, Humanity had fully convinced her that there was no hope for it and that it's only function was to be sustenance for Hollowkind. Only then did she understand what her true purpose as a member of the Adjuchas was supposed to be: to eradicate all that Humanity is and will be for the betterment of her kind.

Thus, in an effort to achieve this goal, Sonadora headed for Japan and decided that she shall from now on use this country as her new base of operations within the Living World. For the most part, she remained within Tokyo as it was there that could be found the most souls for her to experiment with. From there, many plans and designs were conceptualized by the Hollow, strategies to be used for the next centuries or so in order to reach her goal. A few Shinigami came to battle her every now and then, though the events which occurred within Soul Society at the time kept their attention away from her, allowing her to continue her sparing use of her ability across the country. Many served her and many died, though every time they died, it never seemed to be by her hand, confusing Human authorities and the Gotei 13 both in the process as the Japanese urban jungle was established during the nation's economical prime. This could have remained so if it was not for the Hollow's ambition which drove her to coordinate a particular project of hers. That project was what she coined as "Cambio", the change, that which would usher the beginning of a new era. In this case, its primordial step is simple: the complete and utter destruction of Soul Society.

Of course, destroying what has been thoroughly encrusted in the very fabric of the universe was not going to be easy. Many individuals - be they Hollows or not - have attempted to do this and all of them have failed in some way or another whether by sheer incompetence or plain weakness. This was specifically proven by Azeru Cho's failure to achieve godhood though the construction of the useless Arrancar, all of which Sonadora has witnessed to some degree. His plan was not terrible per say, as the use of the Hougyoku allotted him incredible power, but she always perceived it as a crutch that could only lead him to his eventual downfall, something which was evidently proven to be the case. Through his defeat, however, she learned that the best way to attack Soul Society was not via direct assaults. Instead, the optimal strategy was to attack from afar, in a way that would eventually catch the Shinigami at their very core. And so, with this line of thought, the better question became not how to take down Soul Society, but rather how to take it out discretely.

After a few years of consumption, the creature was eventually capable of formulating a strategy as she developed her ability. Upon studying it, she realized that what she once thought to only be her sheer will invading the sleep of her target was instead Hollow reiatsu that she once unconsciously transferred to the aforementioned target. It is what allowed her to create her servants, and it is what would allow her to potentially invade Soul Society from afar to begin the first step of Cambio. If she is able to transfer her reiatsu into a soul in some way or another which would then eventually become a Shinigami, she could cause their souls to be corrupted into beings that would respond only to her command, and by then, the invasion could begin. It was only a theory so far, something that could potentially not even work at all, but it was worth a shot, as she knew her physical capabilities would not allow her to directly attack the sacred Shinigami realm.

For a while then, she went to work, searching for candidates who she personally found to be suitable. The Shinigami are composed of people who are strong of character in some way or another, or at least just strong enough to handle themselves in a fight. Unfortunately, the age in which she decided to do so was not full of them, or rather Japan itself was not full of them. Among the millions of people that crossed the streets of Tokyo, there were perhaps maybe a dozen or so that seemed to be interesting enough to Sonadora, all of which she personally believed would attempt to join the Gotei 13 after their death. Within this group was a particular young woman named Nakajima Kimiko, a student who seemed to be fond of battling others in what Humans referred to as "video games". For days following her finding of the Human, the Hollow studied her and her daily life. Not all of it was an interesting experience for the beast, though she eventually realized that a man close to her notably hated her. The conclusion made in this moment was thus only logical.

Driving the man to murderous insanity fueled by anger and jealousy, Sonadora had him specifically sleep with a knife at night so that it could be imbued with her corruptive energy. This happened for many consecutive days, all of which completely broke the man until all he could think about was murdering the young woman, something which he accomplished rather easily. Once this was done, Sonadora made sure to spy the young woman as she became a wandering Plus, keeping all nearby Hollows at bay. It was a risky endeavor, but considering how successful this plan could potentially become, it was worth a shot. For days, she awaited the arrival of a Shinigami that would take her away, someone that could bring her to that accursed place. Again, it was not a particularly-interesting experience as it seemed that the new Plus was only interested in wandering aimlessly around this "Akihabara", something which the creature found to be rather pathetic.

Eventually, a Shinigami finally came to the girl. Unbeknownst to Sonadora, however, the risk that she had taken while following this Plus proved to be more substantial than she could have ever imagined.

5) Enter Tragedy

The Hollow could still remember the sight of the warrior from the rooftops of the city. Long blonde hair bound in a ponytail, a gaze hidden beneath sunglasses, clothes of black leather and tissue combined, and a tall bulky frame synonymous of strength. His smile was perpetual and his demeanor seemed overall optimistic as he left the Senkaimon to reach out for the main streets of Akihabara. His sword - a blade of Japanese origins - was settled at his hip, seemingly normal in hindsight, but it was a Zanpakuto nonetheless, something that can change very rapidly if its owner wills it so. All in all, for all she knew of the soldiers of the Gotei 13, he was most likely one of the oddest Shinigami she has ever seen in her life, and she had seen many in her lifetime, perhaps even too many. The fact alone that it was such was enough to make the beast very wary of him. If there is one thing she has learned over time, it is that in a world as cruel as their own, oddities is often what one must be most wary of. Strangeness is never to be ignored.

For a while, the creature tried to understand his goals as she remained away from his position, though not enough so as to be unable to sense the Plus' presence any longer. The skies were to be avoided and so were the open spaces, and as such, she remained most often hidden behind the skyscrapers. Her Adjuchas body was never designed for stealth unlike her Strayed form, so remaining furtive against this foe that she believed to be dangerous was not an easy task. Still, she spied the Plus, wanting to see what would happen. The Shinigami did not seem to be very concerned by her presence per say, not from the distance from where she stood, but he did seem eager to move forward. His step was both tense and not so tense, accelerated yet slow, almost as if he was only really here out of sheer curiosity rather than to fulfill any kind of duty. It only made his oddity even more outrageous to the Hollow. Something was wrong with this Shinigami. She could just feel it.

Eventually, he reached the girl and proceeded with the Konsō ritual. Again, the way he delivered the ritual was odd. He was doing it too quickly, too frantically, something that even Sonadora understood should not be done as such even if she herself was not a Shinigami and never will be. From where she stood, she could not hear them speak, but it was clear that even the Plus felt that something was strange about this. This was starting to become such a problem that worry started to overshadow the fulfillment the monster felt upon watching the girl be sent to Soul Society. Despite the success of the initial start of Cambio, the mere fact that the Shinigami was doing this so quickly was simply way too preoccupying. This officer is not normal. Something bad is going to happen if she stays. She needs to leave now, as soon as possible, before he eventually reaches for her position and attempts to take care of her. For all she knew, even if he did not wear white, he could somehow be one of those blasted Captains.

And then, she saw the Shinigami start heading towards her position. His step was even more accelerated than before and he was staring right at her behind the skyscraper she stood onto. No matter how one may look at this, it was clear that her presence had been noticed and that the man was now heading there to investigate. The worry Sonadora felt instantly griped at her non-existent heart and, with clenched teeth behind her deformed mask, she immediately attempted to flee to Hueco Mundo. There was no time to waste: even she had no idea what would happen if he catches her. Unfortunately for her, before she could even do so much as open a portal to the desert wasteland, the officer had suddenly disappeared from her sight. Only a second later did she feel his presence behind her back, and by then, the only thing she could do is turn around and watch him quietly as they stared at one another.

His voice and dialect were both just as memorable as his appearance. That tone, that accent of his. In every single way, she can still today remember his satisfaction of having found her. He hadn't attacked her straight away and rather had simply reached out to her with a simple conversation before anything that would occur in the following minutes at best. "An Adjuchas in the middle of a big city like this? That's not something you see everyday," he first expressed with that eternal grin of his, something the Hollow personally found to be bothersome in its own way as it exhumed outrageous confidence so characteristic to the people of Seireitei. Even his introduction seemed almost boastful, in a way. "André Belair, officer of the Twelfth Division! Very nice to meet you." To hear him talk in such a way, like he knew exactly what he was doing and was only deliberately showing off before her, was not something she appreciated, but now that they were so close to one another, there was nothing she could do but oblige him.

They spoke for what felt like hours there, the man's oddity practically freezing the Hollow in place. She knew that she was in danger and that any move from her would begin a battle that she truly felt she could not win against this man. It was a terrible feeling, one that could have only been accentuated by the man's conversation. Everything that came out of his mouth was unnecessary Human and Shinigami dribble that the creature did not have an ounce of care for in hindsight. Random technological feats made by the Twelfth Division, food and other delicacies that the man had enjoyed in his life, a Human hockey team that he has been following for the last century or so. The age of the things he described were apparent, confirming the fact that the man was experienced, but she did not understand the point of them being all talked about, so much so that she remained mute for most of the conversation. In the meantime, she silently ordered the nearby individuals that she had influenced with her abilities to come to her position this instant. There was nothing else to be done other than that to ensure her escape.

Despite this, the man continued to speak. He seemed fully intent to simply converse with her and analyze her as the office workers under Sonadora's control remained near the windows of the skyscraper near their position. They were about to jump out of the window to attack the Shinigami, all the while the monster was preparing to unleash her fog. However, before she could do so much as order them to jump out and attack her sudden opponent, the man abruptly appeared before her without the familiar sound of Shunpo following his step, and simply smiled. He spoke at that moment, told her something that seemed as casual as the rest of his conversation, but the Hollow was too fixated on his blade to keep track of what he said. All she heard then as she so desperately attempted to move was the chanting that came from the man's mouth as the steel of his weapon twisted obscenely into something uncanny: "Bring me the divine nectar, Seimeihochu."

The very next moment, she felt an intense pain piercing through her stomach which then spread throughout the entirety of her body, and then she saw the ground rapidly accelerate towards her face. Once her body crashed against the pavement below, everything turned to black.

6) Dawn of a New Day

Sonadora returned from slumber the very next day, dizzied and barely able to remain conscious. The wound that she had received had not left her incredibly bloodied or mangled, but it had severely hurt her, enough so to almost render her unable to even stand properly. Her body felt weak and frail, both feelings which she has not felt in centuries. For hours, she recovered quietly in the alleyway, making sure to not alert anyone nearby. After a while, still in pain, she realized that the pain in question was not anymore emanated by the wound, but rather from hunger. The sickening feeling of her stomach growling in a desperate need for consumption was making her almost keel over, and in that moment, she then understood the horrific nature of the fate the Shinigami has bestowed onto her. Instead of killing her and sending her off to a rapid death, he instead cruelly took away her power and returned her to her primordial state: her Stray form.

The fact that centuries of work were immediately laid to waste by this officer caused the Hollow to scream loudly in both absolute horror and anger from what has just happened. She could not believe that a Shinigami would even be bestowed such a disgusting ability, and she could believe even less that he would be so cruel so as to let her live through this pathetic state again. Her power, gone. Her followers, gone. She still had her fog, but its effect could not be compared to the one which were emitted by her Adjuchas or even her Gillian form, and her body had returned to its imp-like self that anyone could most likely break like a twig. For a moment then, the fear of even having to go through the Gillian stage again almost took over her mind, then soon followed by an intense hatred for both the Shinigami and this André Belair alike... though eventually, she took control of herself and merely remained quiet as she started to think.

Now was especially not the time to succumb to anger. It is important to remain calm and think about to do. If she loses control and starts going on a mindless rampage fueled by emotion, other Shinigami or Hollows will catch her and kill her, or worse, a Quincy. She needs to remain sane and, most importantly, she needs to control that hunger of hers again so as to not lose control. With that mindset, she quietly pondered about what to do. It was still difficult for her to process what had happened to her and it was even more difficult to accept it, but she needed a plan. She remained there for some more hours, all the while exercising her ability to resist the terrible hunger ravaging her stomach. Eventually, as she thought, she concocted a conclusion that she believed to be currently satisfactory. As weakened as her ability had become in this state, there are plenty of souls in Tokyo that she can feast upon in order for her to become strong again, the nearby Jūreichi included. So long as she is careful, she can bring herself back to becoming at the very least a Gillian again. It will not be pleasant, but there was simply no other way.

As such, with a reluctant step, Sonadora then went on to begin a life of scavenging within the Japanese metropolis. There was no where else for her to go, not in this state, and there was no other better location in the Living World for her to get souls from. Becoming an Adjuchas again will take some time and she will most likely meet strong opponents all the same, but she will perhaps come back from this terrible fate stronger than ever before to continue processing Cambio. Besides, the first step of her plan has already been achieved. If she can at least become powerful enough to become that Kimiko's master once she becomes Hollowfied, then all will be well, even if the execution of this plan is to be done like this as a Stray.

Here is to the success of Cambio, and to the destruction of Humanity.

[Kyomei Kuchiki]

First off, gotta say your app is beautifully designed. I like the layout very well.

Everything meets my standards, so moving into Powers directly.

I love how you have the "overall ability" but explain it all through Techniques. It helps me get a broad and specific look at your abilities.

For Divine Veil, the Apple of Eden seems underpowered. Wouldn't they instantly become out of Slumbered if they aren't within range of Sonadora's normal fog? Since it dissipates immediately.

For Word of God, is the power of the Word defined by the level of Evolution Sonadora has unlocked? Meaning, can she only Decree at Vasto Lorde or can she Decree at Stray for a certain cost?

As I read your Daydream techniques, it occurs to me that I don't see how much Exhaustion is required to become Slumbered. While I'd like it to be pretty loose and freeform, I can see your opponents abusing no set rules by dragging it out longer by "sheer force of will" or some crap like that.

Also, while Slumbered, a target shouldn't be able to be auto-killed by Sonadora or her allies. I'm imagining a Slumbered target should be coated in protective Fog Webbing like a spider to avoid insta-kill because they're asleep. Sonadora should be forced to fight them in their Dream, in my mind. Yes, she's more powerful in the Dream, so I think that balances it well.

Unless Garden of Eden is the answer to that? Are the Slumbered somehow universe phased into it? Or are they still physically present in the real world?

For Fallen Angel, please explain what you mean by a "Maximal Class X being" for the three forms. Is it SP that they get allocated, or just their class for Clash?

For the Celestial techniques, the "NPC must be considered X class above their own" should cap at Class 1 and expressly state that RPCs are not given said boost, I feel. Just for safesies.

Overall, amazing work, I'm so excited to see her grow. These powers are some of the best I've ever seen in a Hollow.

[Sonadora]

Hello Kyomei! Thank you for checking my character. As you have requested, I have made a few changes in accordance to the points you have raised in your grading. Here is a summary of everything that has been accomplished.

• Divine Veil: Apple of Eden has been adjusted in order for it to have more of a useful purpose on the battlefield. It was true that its original version was underpowered. The fog that it creates now applies a guaranteed Slumbered state that cannot be removed even outside of the fog for four posts.
  

• Clarifications were made in regards to the effects of Word of God and how they can be accessed. They now directly depend on Sonadora's stage of evolution (ex: Decrees can only be cast once she becomes a Vasto Lorde).
  

• A Fatigue stat was introduced specifically for Daydreams. This should hopefully prevent meta-gaming of the sort you mentioned.
  
  
  

• The auto-kill element of the Slumbered state and what the Garden of Eden is were both things that were on my mind while I was thinking of Sonadora's ability. However, this was already covered under the Powers side of the sheet within the following paragraph:
  
  "Any target which becomes Slumbered enters a catatonic state that renders their body foggy as their mind becomes separated from reality to reach the Garden of Eden, Sonadora's very own dream world. So long as they remain in this state, they cannot interact with or receive interaction from any who remain within the true world, for their entire being becomes a vaporous imprint that cannot be even so much as damaged. Unless the fog which surrounds them is forcefully removed from the area by an outside entity, they cannot be removed from this state."
  
  To further comment on the matter, I am not sure that Sonadora should be forced to fight against those within a Nightmare. Doing so breaks the purpose of Judgement Call entirely, and I think that giving Sonadora the choice to personally get involved in a Nightmare or instead have her send Fallen Angels makes for a more interesting power set which better reflects her arrogant personality.
  
  
  
• In regards to the Classes of Fallen Angels, I was planning to simply have them use Classes for Clashes and general power depictions rather than having them possess their own stats. However, now that you have mentioned it, stats do sound like a better way to depict their strength. If it is possible to do so, I would be glad to go with that idea.
  

• Celestial Techniques now appropriately state that the maximum Class the Ascended can reach with their boost is Class 1, and that PCs are unaffected by said boost.
  

[Kyomei Kuchiki]

I had missed the paragraph on the foggy incorporeality of slumbering targets. That helps immensely. As for the comment about fighting in the nightmare, I meant she shouldn't be able to effect their body outside of the nightmare, which is again clarified by them not being able to be interacted with until the fog is dispersed from them.

Stats for the fallen angels would be fine with me. You could give them flat SP and non-typed and could be flexible as you need in a specific thread

[Kyomei Kuchiki]

Can we also add in a clause that targets with 2x superiority in OS only receive 50% the Fatigue and targets with 0.5 OS (sonadora has 2x superiority) receive 50% more. Fatigue Max should also be minimum 150 and increase by 25 per Strength of Will or I'm willing to hear suggestions for alternative skills that would resist.

[Sonadora]

Changes were made as requested. Fallen Angels now each are classified as Non-Typed with their own SP at their disposition, and Fatigue has been developed further with your suggestions.

[Kyomei Kuchiki]

I'd put the SP of the Prince, Duke, and King at 300, 500, 1000 respectively, remembering that they will need to spread that out among most of the stats to be able to be effective.

[Sonadora]

SP changes were made as requested.

[Kyomei Kuchiki]

1/2 Approved

[Deleted]

Heya~! I am so, so sorry for the delay on this, but we're finally here on this! So, first things first, I've absolutely no problems with your app! I think everything looks great, n' I love the descriptors, especially in your History!! That said, let's get this show on the road!

---

I'm cool with that you have for your Overall Ability, so let's get straight into your techniques!

---

Starting with Holy Veil! I'm fairly hard-pressed about the sensory mechanic attached to this effect, considering you're taking Spirited, a type that severely cuts Energy Sensory, I'm not particularly fond of getting benefits of having relatively high ES. We can definitely work this out though, I'm 110% open to debate on this~!

---

For Divine Veil, I've no qualms with this~!

---

For Word of God, I'm cool with this! I absolutely love this concept too!

---

I'm cool with Message of God!

---

For Messenger of God, I'd actually like to see this buffed a bit. Correct me if I'm wrong, but your summons will only have 50% of Sona's stats in Vasto Lorde yeah? If that's the case, I'm perfectly okay with these summons inflicting upwards of 50 Fatigue if you'd like.

---

For Seal of Salvation, I'm pretty okay with this for the most part. I'll be touching on Judgement Call later, though.

---

For Seal of Redemption, I'm also relatively okay with this.

---

For Seal of Liberation, I would've had an issue with this if it allowed for Class 1 -> Class 0, but considering it doesn't, and the costs attached to it, I'm okay with this.

---

For Garden of Eden, I'm cool with this!

---

For Fallen Angel, this has the potential to be absolutely horrifying, play on words intentional. I like this.

---

For Sacred Shapes, considering the costs attached, I'm okay with this!

---

For Heaven on Earth, I'm super hesitant about this one. Given what it does and the range, I'm not too sure about this. That said, I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt for the time being. I might address it in the next round, but for now we're good.

---

Regarding the remainder of your techniques, I'd like a bit more time to think on these though. There's a few things that don't exactly sit well with me at present, so I'd like a bit of time to think on these. That said, I figured we'd get the first few changes out of the way for the time being, and so that you weren't left with no information for a bit! Regardless, you've put in a tremendous amount of effort into this app, and I've gotta say you've really outdone yourself, this is truly spectacular!

[Deleted]

Given changes and discussions we had in Discord, I'm glad to give my 2/2, with 375 starting SP! Once you post your stats, we'll have Sonadora moved over!

[Sonadora]

Stats and skills are now up.
