DE PVP CAMI VS ARCADUS

[Arcadus]

Arcadus and Camilla agree to fight again, in the glassed wasteland of their previous fight. 

[Arcadus]

Arcadus stood out over the sugar white sands. A breeze shifted the sands, the hem of his espada robes flapping against his knee. This was a night he would have liked to spend with Corvus, but he did have something else to look forward to. A wonderous jaunt with his first friend, a clash of their might against each other, and another round for him to try and prove his strength, though he expected the result to be even closer, considering Camilla's evolution.


Some people can tell the future through cards, tea leaves, the moon and starts. He could see it in the sands, of how the desert was a living thing onto itself, and that it wasn't keen to give up its secrets to just anyone. But it told him Camilla had grown even stronger since her last stay in Los Noches, and that she had become something even more monstrous and evil. He smiled at that, she was developing into a truly powerful being. 

He'd agreed to fight Cami here, the site of their last battle, a glassed wasteland. He looked to the pits of black ceramic and glass his flames had made, at the holes made by ceros and the split dunes made by Camilla's blades. What a wonderous introduction to his position as Espada. He really did enjoy his time here, but nothing had lived up to this confrontation, this focal point of clashing spirit and might. It made him shiver in excitement that it was happening again. 

Camilla arrived via warp, and accordingly, Arcadus took his stance maybe 20 yards away, his zanpakuto cry echoing in the silence as he transmormed, white robes replaced by black and gold cling. Standing with his shoulder forward, the larger arrancar let his aura flare, washing the light in purple haze, he knew Camilla would do the same. This wasn't hatred or confrontation. Truly, there was a dance to be danced here, of two people's respect for each other's skills and power. 

Drawing both a blood red sabre and a edge of chitinous bone, Arcadus looked to Camilla as both flared to life, red glow and black ichor swelling from the respective weapons. As Camilla took her stance "Thank you camilla, you're a good friend, and I thank you for letting me handle this before we go to Kouhai, and at least make my case." Allowing her time to respond, Arcadus let a moment pass, the wind seemed to still.

The silence was broken as Arcadus blasted forward a Cero Deslumbrante, Flashing the battlefield in a blinding white  light as it screamed towards her position, growing to size at the distance they were apart. Trailing his Swords in the sand, Arcadus sent a pair of shockwaves toward her as well, meant to catch a flank to either side. He knew he would be open to attacks from above, and flexed his head and shoulders in anticipation. This swipes into the sand hand surrounded him in his flames, the napalm like rieatsu burning in a ring around him.

[Camila Adaronde]

Arriving to the sands through Descorrer, Camila let out a soft sigh, it seemed that things were beginning once more; a fight to the end between two long-time friends. She couldn't believe that it was getting to this point; she couldn't believe that it had been such a short while since their last fight. It was almost poetic.

Looking at her soon-to-be foe standing on the other side of the sands from her, she couldn't help but smile. "Bankai; Shinketsu Sosen." As soon as her words finished, Camila's own weapon exploded outward in what looked to be bloodied reiatsu, before immediately stopping in midair, and closing back in toward the girl. As waves of blood flew toward her, they coalesced around her fingers.

Now taking hold as claws, Camila adopted her fighting stance with a deep breath. "Let's see what you've got, Arcadus," she spoke in response to his own words. She wasn't going to be giving up against this man; there was no chance in hell that she was going to fall here! Not if she could help it! Letting out a howling cry, the girl made haste in rushing toward her opponent.

As she did, a blinding flash of light and a wave of searing heat quickly overtook the girl, beginning with quite the strike from the Arrancar. Against a strike like that? Most everyone would've easily crumbled. Potentially even incinerated with ease, provided they were weak enough. Though, Camila was certainly not weak; anything but. As the blast closed in, giving the tell-tale sign of a Cero's finish while shockwaves exploded in toward her as well, the girl emerged from the light with a newfound mask over her face; that of a hollow mask, close in appearance to a bat.

Similar to the Cero, each shockwave slammed against the girl's body, though seemed to do... very little to her. As though some sort of defense had protected her from the incoming blast, Camila simply continued trucking forward, making her way toward Arcadus as her vision would eventually begin to give her enough to see basic colors. Given her opponent, seeing colors was to be more than enough to help in these silver sands.

The moment she found herself upon the Arrancar, Camila immediately went in for her own strikes. Raking her clawed fingers across the man's chest, following up with a slight hop, and roundhouse kick to the skull, Camila prepared readily to take down her opponent. Though, once she made her way to Arcadus, she'd begun to use quite the trick; everything around her seemed... almost slower. Easier to perceive. Almost as though the world around her had been slowed down; from her perspective, at least.

{吸血鬼 - Kyūketsuki (lit. ‘Vampire’)}

At its heart, Kyūketsuki seeks to turn Camila into a bloodthirsty killing machine, not unlike that of the vampires its namesake represents. Upon releasing Kyūketsuki, Camila’s Zanpakutō begins to thirst for the blood of every living thing. A night-insatiable thirst perpetually driving both her and her Zanpakutō, this drive is tracked through a resource known as the Blood Gauge. This Blood Gauge begins at and maxes out 100 upon Camila’s first release duration, and will be kept track of regardless of whether her release duration expires. Upon re-release, this will resume at the same spot it was paused at. All of Camila’s release techniques will expend this gauge as a cost, either in addition to or in place of reiatsu. Techniques that similarly cost reiatsu can instead be paid in additional Blood Gauge, but every 10 reiatsu in that cost will equal 1 Blood Gauge point. If Camila does not have enough Blood Gauge to pay for a technique, she can still activate it, but doing so will set her Gauge to 0. As a note, Camila’s powers round up where appropriate.

Functioning much like a vampire’s teeth would, Camila’s claws function in such a way that lets her drain the blood of her victims, to then be stored within her Zanpakutō. Passively, this gauge will increase by 5 each post. Each strike that Camila lands on her living victims with these claws will increase her Blood Gauge by 15 points. While spiritually-resilient individuals will likely be able to take this strike and continue walking, basic humans are not likely to take more than one strike before being felled, and are thus only good for 15 points. If Camila manages to bury two of these claws into the neck of a living victim for a few moments, her Blood Gauge will return to a full 100, regardless of previous stature, but such a maneuver will likely leave her open to attacks by those she isn’t actively feeding on. Individuals that do not possess blood will instead restore half of these values.

The closer that Camila finds herself to the point of reaching 0 on this gauge, the more desperate she’ll grow for another fill of blood, boosting her offensive capabilities but coming with a slew of problems. A percentage of Camila’s base Reiatsu Strength will be overlaid onto her physical attacks, not to increase their striking force, but instead to bypass defensive capabilities, equal to the inverse of her current Blood Gauge total. To reference easily, this is referred to as Camila’s Shred. Inversely however, Camila tracks Soak. This value is a percentage equal to Camila’s Blood Gauge, and reflects the Strength of attacks she is capable of Flex Defending; anything equivalent to that value of her base Strength or lower can be defended against with little effort, with anything larger simply ignoring this defense. As one can expect, as Shred goes up, Soak goes down.

There exists another function within this ability, occurring the moment Camila’s Blood Gauge reaches 0. Referred to as Blood Frenzy, this is a state where Camila is sent into a rampant, unstable state in hunt for her next kill. Her Ranks in Strength of Will immediately drop to 0, and her Blood Gauge begins filling at a rate of 20 per post, beginning on the post after Blood Frenzy is triggered. Blood Frenzy ends the moment that Camila’s Blood Gauge reaches 100 once again, and no sooner.

While Blood Frenzy is active, Camila’s Shred & Soak are locked at 100% and 0% respectively, turning her into a bit of a glass cannon, while also locking her out of any release techniques that do not call out the ability to use during Blood Frenzy. Each post that Blood Frenzy remains active, Camila is taxed an amount of reiatsu equal to 10% of her maximum, as is necessary in order to stave off the thirst while she recuperates from these effects.

{真血祖先 - Shinketsu Sosen (lit. ‘True Blood Ancestor’)}

Being Camila’s Bankai, Shinketsu Sosen serves as a natural extension of Camila’s vampiric abilities, looking to amplify their capabilities while adding on additional functionality in order to further expedite her killing capabilities. Upon entering Bankai for the first time in a thread (or after a rest, in longer-styled threads), Camila’s Blood Gauge is immediately set to 100, and any active Blood Frenzy is immediately ended. The cost for Bankai in this circumstance is paid in addition to the 10% tax that normally comes from Blood Frenzy. While in Bankai, Camila is unable to die from blood loss.

While Shinketsu Sosen is active, Camila’s thirst is partially sated at all times, providing a number of benefits to the girl. To start, certain techniques, as specified in those examples, will cost less Blood Gauge to utilize. Similarly, certain techniques will be opened for use during Blood Frenzy. Instead of only 5, Camila will gain 10 Blood Gauge points every post. Camila’s Shred & Soak are capable of scaling up to 150%, still functioning similarly based on the percentage of Camila's Blood Gauge. While in Blood Frenzy, Camila's Strength of Will and equivalents are only reduced by 2 Ranks instead. Lastly, the 10% reiatsu tax from Blood Frenzy is instead reduced to 5% per post.

{壊死的な敏捷性 - Eshi-tekina Binshō-sei (lit. 'Necrotic Agility')}

Technique Name: 壊死的な敏捷性 - Eshi-tekina Binshō-sei (lit. 'Necrotic Agility')

Release Type: Bankai / Resurrección.

Technique Cost: 100 Reiatsu/post | 30 Blood Gauge | Usable in Blood Frenzy.

Description: Eshi-tekina Binshō-sei aims to help Camila's noteworthy Speed problem, making her quite the force to be reckoned with. Upon activation, Camila's 'Comfortable Speed' is immediately doubled, or set to her maximum Speed; whichever is lower. Her ability to perceive the Speed of other individuals is also skyrocketed, providing her with the instincts of her release's namesake. Mechanically, this allows Camila to react to foes and projectiles as though their Speed were halved. This does not provide a statistical debuff, and will not actively decrease their speed, but instead will give the girl an amount of room to dodge incoming strikes and retaliate with her own in a reasonable fashion. By doubling the cost of Stepping techniques (including Keijō Henka), Camila is capable of altering the speed at which she travels to keep up with her opponents that utilize a step tech as well, helping her chase down her prey.

How to Use: Channel necrotic vitality through the body, and fortify the muscles to increase maneuverability and lessen stamina loss.

Drawbacks: Given this does not alter the Speed of abilities or attacks coming her way, if Camila would not be fast enough to reasonably dodge that attack even with this added reaction time, she is simply not going to be able to get out of the way. The Step Speed increase costs 50% more reiatsu for each time its utilized in a post, making it quite easy to outpace her should someone desire to do so. In Resurrección, this increase is instead 25%. If Camila enters Blood Frenzy while this technique is active, it will deactivate, requiring her to turn it back on again.

[Arcadus]

Arcadus watched his attacks hit camilla, the cero blasting against her and her emerging with her hollow mask on again once more. The cero hit, and Arcadus knew it had to have done some damage, but if Cami was feeling the effects, she wasn't showing it. Same went for the shockwaves impacting against her, the force seeming to roll off of her, as if her clothes were strapped to cliff face under gale winds.

She sprinted, he didn't have much time at all as she raked her claws over his chest, ripping into his steel silk but not cutting into his flesh, and Arcadus finally had a moment between impacts, no matter how brief, to react. Swinging his ichor soaked blade down with Sonido Garra roaring behind it, Arcadus attempted to catch Camilla out in her assault, even as he could feel his jaw hurt and neck rattle from the impact, he had seized that moment of impact to try and react before the next.

Whether or not he connected, Arcadus would swing with his other sword, a blossom of admitedly weak, but fast fireballs flying outward in a spiritual smoke screen following the swing. Arcadus knew he couldn't quite attempt to deal with this on his own strength and power, so it was time to borrow strength from somewhere. Taking his senses and focusing inwards, Arcadus cast Hierro Resonancia, reverberating his hierro in anticipation of further attacks.

If Cami were to physically strike him again, she would feel the force disappate rather than impact something hard, and Arcadus beckoned her to continue, it was time for clashing again. He knew he was taking damage, but he needed to keep in combat to ensure both that he could try and wear Camilla down, but as well, that he wasn't going to run like he had last time when Camilla blitzed him. Never again.

{Insect Rust}Description: This 32 inch falchion, serves as Arcadus’s reminder to those who challenge his position in the Espada, or in his own endeavors. Seemingly forged from chitin, this blades’s white and porous surface gives it the look of being made of bone. It drips a black liquid when held, tinging the material grey, and this liquid sizzles when it hits the ground. The hirigana for Insect Rust (虫さび) are engraved on it’s flat. It’s grip seems to end in a molded hip joint.

Class: Class 1

Item Type: Offensive

Item Power (IP): 1100

Offense Type: Physical and Spiritual

Durability: 2200



Bonuses: This swords’s liquid, is in fact a powerful hemo toxin that is meant to mimic the dangerous and venomous abilities of a previous’s Espada. This venom, when it enters a target through an injury or through dripping into an open wound or exposed area, like an eye or mouth, begins the stages of infection.

The level of infection is determined by the target’s poison resist skill, being ineffective against poison resist 3, light infection against poison resist 2, moderate moderate from poison resist 1, and severe infection from a target with no poison resist. The blade requires a charge of reiatsu to produce enough toxin to be used effectively, and to properly charge it, the user must pay 100 reiatsu. When charged, the black ichor begins to stream off of the blade. High Speed Regeneration can double the posts or hits needed to progress to the next stage. This effect can of course be healed with sufficient HE to treat poisons and the appropriate medical conditions. The use may pay 100 rieatsu to instead end this condition, or, this condition may be ended through cauterization of the infected area (increasing in size with progressing stages.) or a purging of one's blood.

Light Infection: The wound displays copper and green discoloration, as if a copper statue is rusting, and the blood from the wound is unusually dark. A searing, burning feeling permeates the wound, as the hemotoxin begins to attack the flesh. High Speed regeneration slows, as it works to counteract this effect, causing other wounds to heal slowly. Light infection progresses to medium infection if either 4 posts pass, or 4 doses of the toxin are delivered, or some combination of the two. The victim may pay 100 reiatsu to suppress the effects of this level of infection, though it does not halt progression. The use may pay 200 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Moderate Infection: the wound has begun to rot, a putrid stench bubbling out of it. The blood it self has begun to rust, turning a person’s blood orange or yellow making it incredibly painful, but as well, incredibly difficult to circulate oxygen, causing the person’s cells to begin dying from a rapid onset anemia. The victim finds themselves feeling weak, as their heart works harder to pump less effective blood to dying muscles and organs. Lightheadedness, exhaustion, and general weakness pervade the victim, and their ability to use techniques that require large amounts of stamina (mechanically if stamina cost is listed as a drawback) is compromised, costing double the needed stamina to utilize these techniques. One can suppress these effects for 200 reiatsu a post to stave off these effects. As with the last stage, to progress to the severw stage, either 4 posts must pass at moderate infection or 4 hits of the venom, or a combination of the two. The use may pay 400 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Severe Infection: The wound has reached a critical stage, and without immediate medical care, the victim will die. If after 4 posts of severe infection the perosn is not healed or the poison is purged, they will die. As the anemia becomes terminal, a person’s organs are starved of oxygen and begin to shut down, as their body drowns on dry land, with no oxygen in the system, the body suffers, and everything begins to shut down. At the end of 4 posts, or 4 hits of poison from this weapon, the person dies. To suppress the effects of this, the user pays 400 rieatsu, but still dies at the end of progression. The target may pay 800 rieatsu to instead end this condition

[Camila Adaronde]

As a slash raked across the girl's abdomen, she continued through with her strike against the Espada's skull, aiming to drive him down to the ground with her strike. Going on the back-step for a moment, and taking the opportunity to clear the distance, Camila dropped to the ground as the explosive blasts impacted against her. She remained smug, due to the lack of stopping power that was put upon the girl.

As she landed on the ground, she took the opportunity to Shunpō back for a moment. Feeling her own body severely begin to work against her, Camila sighed as her spiritual prowess churned through her body, quickly recovering herself from any and every wound that she'd sustained at this point. She knew full-well that this was going to get rather annoying; that poisoned blade was going to have to go if she could help it.

"Some balls you've got there," she started, "trying to deal with me like that. Think you're hot shit, Segunda?" She smirked. Taking up another stance, Camila kept herself low to the ground, a toothy grin stretched across her face. Though, while Arcadus couldn't see her face due to the mask, his Energy Sensing capabilities were likely to pick up on her emotional state at the moment.

She'd been just a hare away from snapping. Just a slight push toward going absolutely fucking crazy. It was steadily recovering itself as the fight continued, and as more blood had been spilt, but it was close to that breaking point. And, once again, she'd vanished, that sense of crazy quickly closing in on the Espada, and positioning herself just shy of where he'd been.

Grabbing hold of his arm with all the force she could muster up to try and break his wrist, the girl aimed to simultaneously throw the Espada to the ground, while raking her bladed hands across his chest once more with the other hand. Assuming she'd been successful in grabbing the Espada with the stark advantage in Speed between the two, she'd throw another hand across him, looking to leave his chest bloodied and battered as quickly as she could. She needed blood; she needed as much as she could get!

{悪の憲法 - Aku no Kenpō (lit. 'Evil Constitution')}

Technique Name: 悪の憲法 - Aku no Kenpō (lit. 'Evil Constitution')

Release Type: Bankai / Resurrección.

Technique Cost: 150 Reiatsu | 10+ Blood Gauge | Usable in Blood Frenzy.

Description: Similar to Seishin Wakagaeri, Aku no Kenpō works to reconstitute Camila's body after suffering substantial injury. Depending on how much Blood Gauge is spent after the initial activation cost, certain wounds will be healed from within a short span of time, much like High-Speed Regeneration, as detailed below. Each stage of expenditure also heals everything in the lesser costs at no additional price. In Resurrección, these Blood Gauge costs are halved.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Blood Gauge to Healing}
10 Blood Gauge: A minuscule amount of stamina is restored, covering what this technique would normally tax the Vizard. Miniscule wounds and bruises are closed up across the body.

20 Blood Gauge: Most bruising is healed, and low-capability substances are purged from the body (Class 6 and below).

30 Blood Gauge: Larger cuts and all bruising is healed. First-degree burns are recovered, and left with minimal scarring.

40 Blood Gauge: Hairline fractures are fused back together, and dislocated limbs are set. Mid-capability substances are purged from the body (Class 4 and below).

50 Blood Gauge: Deeper lacerations and second-degree burns are recovered from, with no scarring.

60 Blood Gauge: All broken bones are fused back together and set properly, with missing portions being regrown as necessary. High-capability substances are purged from the body (Class 2 and below).

70 Blood Gauge: All external damage and "thirst"-degree burns are recovered from. External organs (eyes, ears, nose, etc.) are healed to their fullest.

80 Blood Gauge: Amputated limbs, digits, and other missing appendages are restored to their fullest potential. Penultimate-capability substances are purged from the body (Class 1 and below).

90 Blood Gauge: Fourth-degree burns, and all internal damage sans injuries to the heart or brain are restored.

How to Use: Hold for a moment, and concentrate necrotic energies through the body.

Drawbacks: Aku no Kenpō takes a moment to activate, and requires focus to utilize, leaving the user vulnerable during the duration and providing an opening for those in question, and potentially making this technique useless. Similarly, this technique flexes the user's spiritual presence, making them very easily detectable by those within a half-mile radius. Given healing scales off of the additional amount of Blood Gauge invested after the initial cost, the highest form(s) of healing will automatically place Camila into Blood Frenzy. Amount that can be healed is limited without expending reiatsu. Cannot heal wounds that are immediately lethal, like heart or brain injury. Does not recover stamina, beyond the initial cost of the technique.

{Shunpō}
Technique Name: Shunpō

Technique Class: 7 - 10 TTP.

Technique Type: Hōhō.

Technique Element: N/A.

Technique Cost: 50 Reiatsu.

Description: A movement technique that allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow. The focal point that determines the basis of this technique is speed. As speed is the main point of the technique, the method is best characterized by how fast one can get from Point A to Point B in the least amount of steps. Training and skill are what determines how fast a user of Shunpō can move. Those of little skill in the technique or those who haven't used it for an extended amount of time would obviously be out of practice, causing those individuals to be considerably slower. This requires the use of more steps to move the same distance and become tired more easily in a shorter amount of time. A single step magnifies speed for that step by ten times. Shunpō uses fifty Reiatsu per step. This one is automatically learned in the academy. All Shinigami know this when created. This technique does not take up a technique slot.

How to Use: Focus of Reishi around the feet area and launch off into a single blurring step. It is not unlike teleportation in appearance, but it is simply extremely fast movement. It is often used to gain an edge in a single moment of combat or to dodge incoming attacks.

Incantation: N/A.

Drawbacks: Reiatsu Cost.

[Arcadus]

Arcadus grimaced as he felt the ringing pain in his head. Something was cracked, maybe even broken. It hurt, but he'd live just fine. Camilla had landed, and she had something to say. "I certianly think that I'm hot, shit has nothing to do with it camilla. He could sense her smile, something he relished that he'd accomplished when she was so intent on killing him. Mind games and forcing others to mercy were still strengths, even if they were subtle.

He could tell the poison had been healed and some part of her was strained, she was almost like a hollow on a rampage, emotionally speaking. She had a passion and fury within her but this was beyond this. Madness, hatred, it burned in her soul like hot coals boiling pitch. He loved this, and he wouldn't have missed this for the world, and regardless, it killed him inside to hide something from someone he counted as friend.

She vanished, and Arcadus could only just begin to raise his hands before she grabbed his wrist, trying to pull his huge frame to the ground. Her grip alone hurt him, and as she pulled him, he knew he had to fall back on his release again, but he had no intention of using it in the same way as before. A momentary advantage was all he needed, and as her other hand raised to claw his chest and he could feel her pulling himforward, he activated it.

Camilla's hands collapsed around Arcadus's wrist, skin giving way to burning crisps and golden flame, her other attacks finding naught but burning as Arcadus shed his form and took on what he so desired to be. Fire itself, a burning pillar of rieatsu and will. "I̷͚͂̕'̶̣̕ͅm̸̖̟̮͛ ̴̨̦͈̓S̵͙̉̋ö̵̟̉̾ṙ̴̤̩̂̄r̸̗̹̒y̶̙̥̯͂ ̷̡̄̋͑C̷̡͈̓à̵͖́͘m̶͖̤͗͠ḯ̸͎͕l̵̠̲̈́͜͠l̵͈̥͋ȧ̶̳,̵̫̳̉̂̚ ̶̧͎̓b̴͎͈̪̽u̸̧̘̙̅t̶̜̐̀͝ ̵̨̭̾̈́í̷̢͙̐͊f̶̩̃ ̸̹͒y̴̧̤͈͆̌̃ô̴̠̪ͅu̸͕̥̙͛͊͘'̴̢̝͖̒r̷̞̤̐ḙ̶̯̅̆̄ ̸̛͉̮̯̚g̴̖̭̍͂ͅo̴̧̞͘͠i̵͉̲͒̔ň̷̝̂̕g̸̯̯̓̆ ̵̰͔̲͌t̸̪̟̆̽o̸̺̭̮̐͝ ̴̧̬̘͗̀̄t̴̩̓a̵̙̐̂k̵̖̓̉͝ę̴̫̗͋̿͒ ̷̨͙͒t̵̻͈͝h̷̢͍̒͒i̵͔̫̇́s̷̛̘̳͌ ̶͙̉͋s̴̩͔̒̒ͅe̶͔͙̠͗̽́r̵̺͒͝i̴͓̚ơ̴̘͙̜u̷͎̲͐̌s̸̳̗̮͌͐͘l̶͕̦̥̀̚ÿ̸̛͉́̍,̴̝͔͍̕ ̸̠̭̞̇͗̓s̷̮͉̮̎õ̷͚̔ ̵̙̈̌̾ȁ̷̝̙̙̒̄m̸͓͚̆ ̶̯̀Í̶̦̲͘.̷̨̹̏̀̚" Arcadus would dropped the charged Bleeding Edge into the sand, and under another hail of fireballs, lunged forward, firey appendage bare. It changed from golden to pure white, clearly some kind of head on melee strike.

Halfway before Arcadus would have struck Camilla, he stepped, appearing behind her, his golden flames ceasing as he thrust an open palm into her back with sonido garra, a flower formation of rieatsu bursting forward on contact. He'd feinted, sacrificed the apparent advantage of his intangibility on the idea that Camilla would prepare to step as he got closer, given her superior speed. But regardless, if he was going to have his wrist broken he'd rather get something for it. "You're definitely different cami, but I wonder how much you've changed. Where are the blood weapons?"

{Insect Rust}Description: This 32 inch falchion, serves as Arcadus’s reminder to those who challenge his position in the Espada, or in his own endeavors. Seemingly forged from chitin, this blades’s white and porous surface gives it the look of being made of bone. It drips a black liquid when held, tinging the material grey, and this liquid sizzles when it hits the ground. The hirigana for Insect Rust (虫さび) are engraved on it’s flat. It’s grip seems to end in a molded hip joint.
Class: Class 1

Item Type: Offensive

Item Power (IP): 1100

Offense Type: Physical and Spiritual

Durability: 2200

Bonuses: This swords’s liquid, is in fact a powerful hemo toxin that is meant to mimic the dangerous and venomous abilities of a previous’s Espada. This venom, when it enters a target through an injury or through dripping into an open wound or exposed area, like an eye or mouth, begins the stages of infection.

The level of infection is determined by the target’s poison resist skill, being ineffective against poison resist 3, light infection against poison resist 2, moderate moderate from poison resist 1, and severe infection from a target with no poison resist. The blade requires a charge of reiatsu to produce enough toxin to be used effectively, and to properly charge it, the user must pay 100 reiatsu. When charged, the black ichor begins to stream off of the blade. High Speed Regeneration can double the posts or hits needed to progress to the next stage. This effect can of course be healed with sufficient HE to treat poisons and the appropriate medical conditions. The use may pay 100 rieatsu to instead end this condition, or, this condition may be ended through cauterization of the infected area (increasing in size with progressing stages.) or a purging of one's blood.

Light Infection: The wound displays copper and green discoloration, as if a copper statue is rusting, and the blood from the wound is unusually dark. A searing, burning feeling permeates the wound, as the hemotoxin begins to attack the flesh. High Speed regeneration slows, as it works to counteract this effect, causing other wounds to heal slowly. Light infection progresses to medium infection if either 4 posts pass, or 4 doses of the toxin are delivered, or some combination of the two. The victim may pay 100 reiatsu to suppress the effects of this level of infection, though it does not halt progression. The use may pay 200 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Moderate Infection: the wound has begun to rot, a putrid stench bubbling out of it. The blood it self has begun to rust, turning a person’s blood orange or yellow making it incredibly painful, but as well, incredibly difficult to circulate oxygen, causing the person’s cells to begin dying from a rapid onset anemia. The victim finds themselves feeling weak, as their heart works harder to pump less effective blood to dying muscles and organs. Lightheadedness, exhaustion, and general weakness pervade the victim, and their ability to use techniques that require large amounts of stamina (mechanically if stamina cost is listed as a drawback) is compromised, costing double the needed stamina to utilize these techniques. One can suppress these effects for 200 reiatsu a post to stave off these effects. As with the last stage, to progress to the severw stage, either 4 posts must pass at moderate infection or 4 hits of the venom, or a combination of the two. The use may pay 400 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Severe Infection: The wound has reached a critical stage, and without immediate medical care, the victim will die. If after 4 posts of severe infection the perosn is not healed or the poison is purged, they will die. As the anemia becomes terminal, a person’s organs are starved of oxygen and begin to shut down, as their body drowns on dry land, with no oxygen in the system, the body suffers, and everything begins to shut down. At the end of 4 posts, or 4 hits of poison from this weapon, the person dies. To suppress the effects of this, the user pays 400 rieatsu, but still dies at the end of progression. The target may pay 800 rieatsu to instead end this condition

{Heavenly Flower Fist}Technique Name: Ten Kaika Ken (Heavenly Flower Fist) Mastered

Class: 3

Technique Type: Other

Usable By: Any Race

Technique Element: General Reiatsu

Technique Description and Effects: Considered a beautiful technique by those who witness it, those who experience it have a much different opinion. By making contact with an object or person, the user is able to vibrate their Reiatsu in sync with whatever they are touching, and forcibly expel the Reiatsu through the target. As the Reiatsu is expelled, it spirals outward and breaks away into shapes that are reminiscent of flower petals – hence the name. Though beautiful, the technique is destructive in nature, and is used to cause massive internal damage at the cost of damaging the hand of the user. After one use, there is internal bleeding inside the target on every organ, as well as a significant amount of pain; they will begin coughing up blood as well. A second use results in organs being ruptured and torn, which thus causes more bleeding. A third use results in complete internal destruction. If used on a physical or spiritual object, the object is completely destroyed from the inside out, leaving it hollow.

How to use technique: The user has to make contact with a target with their hands – through a fist or open palm gesture if they want – and vibrate their Reiatsu in sync with that of the opponent, then fire it outward.

Technique Drawbacks: A moderate Reiatsu cost is one drawback. The second is the damage caused by the Reiatsu that was vibrated in the hand used. The hand, after just one use, will be completely numb, and covered in deep cuts, which results in a significant amount of bleeding, and a loss in dexterity. Moreover, the bones in the hand become fractured, adding to the pain. After a second use, the hand is useless, and it is destroyed internally. Furthermore, if the Combat Stat of the target is superior to that of the user's Combat Stat, the damage is cut by fifty percent. At a fifty percent difference in superiority by the target, the damage of this technique is nullified.This technique does not ignore defense techniques like Hierro/Blut, and will result in a clash if used (technique vs technique). Finally, this technique can only be used once per post of the user.

[Camila Adaronde]

As her grip on the Espada had held tight, Camila was fully prepared to throw the Espada, when she quickly realized that things were beginning to heat up by quite a bit. Letting go of her grip, and immediately scattering into a swarm of bats around her, Camila made sure to steer clear of the incoming attacks, separating at a far faster Speed than Arcadus had struck with through Sonido Garra.

As those bats flew backward, looking to create a bit of distance between the two of them, Camila reformed a good little bit later, outpacing the oncoming barrage of fiery bolts in her direction. Smirking, Camila realized very quickly what had been going on. He'd gone invulnerable again! Gritting her teeth, the girl remembered what had happened the last time he did this.

"PULLING THAT BULLSHIT OUT, HUH!?" She shouted, "I'LL FUCKING SHOW YOU WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF!" As her words finished, the girl swiped her hand out behind her, a blast of spiritual energy exploding outward from that slash; it had been a Vizard's cero. As the laser exploded backward, the blast enveloped the flames that Arcadus had set up previously. Sand blasted over them, and the laser itself threatened to put a number of them out from raw force alone.

"I REMEMBER WHAT YOU'RE CAPABLE OF, ARCADUS!" She moved the mask from her face, positioning it atop her head. Her eyes had taken on the clear black-and-gold look that came from the mask's effects. "TRIED THE SAME TRICK AGAINST ME LAST TIME, REMEMBER!?" A huge, toothy grin rest prominently across the girl's face.

Taking another deep breath, Camila decided against closing the distance this time around. No, instead she'd take up an offensive stance. Bouncing about on her feet, almost like a boxer, she paid close attention toward her opponent, and prepared to strike against him where necessary. She'd entered an almost unnatural state of focus; one that she'd felt would lead her to victory.

{形状変化 - Keijō Henka (lit. 'Shape Change')}

Technique Name: 形状変化 - Keijō Henka (lit. 'Shape Change')

Release Type: Shikai / Bankai / Resurrección.

Technique Cost: 150 Reiatsu (100 in Bankai) | 35 Blood Gauge (20 in Bankai) | Usable in Blood Frenzy (Bankai).

Description: By expending the reiatsu cost, Camila is capable of altering her shape to a number of different forms; a wolf, a cloud of mist, and a swarm of bats. Becoming a wolf will temporarily halt Camila's Blood Gauge changes and the Blood Frenzy state, while still granting Blood Gauge for successful attacks. A cloud of mist will allow Camila temporary immunity to physical attacks coming her way. A swarm of bats functions as a stepping technique, allowing Camila to move at 11x her Speed for a single step, allowing for these bats to bite those passed through along the way. These bats utilize Camila's Strength and Shred to bypass defenses, but these attacks are functionally bat bites; at most, a finger may be lost, but that's likely to be it aside from the hundreds of bat bites.

How to Use: Pour reiatsu through the body in order to alter one's shape.

Drawbacks: Becoming a wolf locks Camila out of her other techniques, both release and non-release. As a cloud of mist, Camila will take 100% more damage from Spiritual attacks, and can only maintain said form for a single post. No matter how many bats bite, this counts as one attack for the purposes of filling the Blood Gauge, and for durability.

{Vizard's Cero}
Technique Name: Vizard’s Cero

Class: 4-2 - 40 TTP to Learn, 80 TTP to Proficient, 180 TTP to Master.

Technique Type: Vizard Technique.

Usable By: Vizard.

Technique Element: N/A.

Technique Cost: 150, 250, 400 Reiatsu.

Description: A frequent ability among Hollows and Arrancar is Cero, a technique which releases a blast of pure spiritual energy with deadly explosive force. Bearing the power of a Hollow themselves, Vizards can learn a similar ability, though theirs is augmented further by combining both their spiritual energy with their Inner Hollow’s. The result is a deadly technique far more powerful than that of an average Cero, allowing a Vizard to strike a devastating blow against their foes.

At Learned, this is a basic Class 4 Cero, albeit with a Shinigami’s energy signature rather than a Hollow’s for those who are sensitive enough to discern the two. It is at Proficient that this technique becomes more potent: not only does the technique evolve to now be Class 3, but it also gains an automatic 50% bonus to the Reiatsu Strength of the technique if used without the Vizard Mask active. Additionally, traces of both Hollow and Shinigami energy are present in the technique. Finally, at Mastered, this technique becomes Class 2, and is given a 100% boost to the Reiatsu Strength of the technique when used without the mask, giving it the same power as when a Vizard’s Mask is worn.

How to Use: Gather energy and release from a palm. As this technique grows stronger, Hollow energy is added into the technique, making it more powerful.

Incantation: N/A.

Drawbacks: While this technique becomes more powerful with increased mastery, it also becomes more expensive, expending more energy for its increase in force. Initially, the Vizard’s Cero costs 150 Reiatsu, and the cost increases to 250 Reiatsu at Class 3. At Class 2, it increases to 400 Reiatsu per use.

Technique Name: 血まみれ踊り: ダ・カーポ - Chimamire Odori: Da Kāpo (lit. 'Bloodstained Dance: Da Capo')

Technique Class: 5 - 20 TTP.

Technique Type: General Physical | Sonata Action.

Usable By: All Races.

Technique Element: N/A.

Technique Cost: 0 Reiatsu.

Description: Upon taking this technique, the user begins building stacks of Sonata. An amount of Sonata is gained each post equal to the user's Ranks in Weapons - Claws. Sonata stacks do not expire, and cap at four times the user's Ranks in Weapons - Claws. At any point, the user can spend Sonata stacks in order to make an attack with their Claws, (or other Sonata actions, per other techniques) at no penalty to their stamina. Up to 2 strikes can be made in this fashion per post. Proficiency ups this amount to 4 strikes per post. Mastery ups this amount to 8 strikes per post.

How to Use: Flow like water; strike like blood.

Drawbacks: Natural cap to the amount of Sonata stacks means that stockpiling them won't allow for immediate use all at once. Requires set-up to unleash. Requires at least 1 Rank in Weapons - Claws, and 1 Rank in Acrobatics.

Technique Class: 2 - 180 TTP.

Technique Type: General Physical | Action Modifier.

Technique Cost: 0 Reiatsu.

Description: Once Learned, Leitmotif grants the user 50% more Sonata stacks per post. At Proficient, they gain a 50% increase to their maximum amount of Sonata stacks. Mastery increases both these benefits once more, setting both to double their base amount.

How to Use: Attune the body to a unique, specialized dance, minimizing wasteful maneuvers and maximizing both combat and style.

Drawbacks: Requires a 3 in Weapons - Claws, and Acrobatics. Does not increase the amount of Sonata attacks that can be made per post.

[Arcadus]

Arcadus stamped his heel in the sand as he understood that Camilla had entirely evaded his bait. He shook his hand to disapate the charge of rieatsu he had prepared to destroy her internals. She really was a vampire, disappearing into a flock of bats. He could sense her anger, and he knew that slowly he was forcing her to emotionally compromise herself. Though that might just be her release's nature, given how she was clearly already unstable when her release took effect. 

Besides being potentially beneficial for him, he really did like Camilla's rage. She had the kind of passion and drive he admired, and even if this was a fight to the end, or because it was, he valued her view of him as a peer even more. Why did he feel this way? Maybe it was just a measure of power against power. Maybe a sad human part of him was clinging to the idea that someone who was deputized by his lord to maintain his loyalty, was somehow his friend. 

Regardless, that peership wouldn't be invalidated as Arcadus looked out over the distance at Camilla, who now bounced in a boxer's stance. Clearly he wasn't besting her in a physical confrotation, so range was the option. She clearly understood that his flames were needed for parts of his release and was targeting them, but unless she wanted to really expose herself she could only curtail them at this point. Arcadus smirked, soon he'd be able make this work. 

He needed an ace in the whole for this. His options being, Angel, Tierra, Garandou and Gran Impacto Cannon. Cannon was too slow for this and was guided anyway, so there was no way for him to track it onto Cami. Angel similar, she could just outrun it, through it would force her away from him. Tierra, he didn't want to use. This was between him and Cami, but if things got worse he'd unleash the Saika. And Garandou. That was his option realistically, once his flames flared up, he'd be able to fire it with little consequence. 

For now, Arcadus was content on a single attack, Gran Rey Cero, to pressure camilla. Of course, as Arcadus sliced his hand and a blue light flared forth and fired in an instant, it disappeared into a gargaunta, with ten portals appearing all around the battle field, about as far from Cami as Arcadus was, all at different angles. From them ripped forth a Gran Rey Cero, though diminished in strength, still incredibly large and with incredible explosive might.

Bonuses: This swords’s liquid, is in fact a powerful hemo toxin that is meant to mimic the dangerous and venomous abilities of a previous’s Espada. This venom, when it enters a target through an injury or through dripping into an open wound or exposed area, like an eye or mouth, begins the stages of infection.

The blade requires a charge of reiatsu to produce enough toxin to be used effectively, and to properly charge it, the user must pay 100 reiatsu. When charged, the black ichor begins to stream off of the blade. High Speed Regeneration can double the posts or hits needed to progress to the next stage. This effect can of course be healed with sufficient HE to treat poisons and the appropriate medical conditions. The use may pay 100 rieatsu to instead end this condition, or, this condition may be ended through cauterization of the infected area (increasing in size with progressing stages.) or a purging of one's blood.

Light Infection: The wound displays copper and green discoloration, as if a copper statue is rusting, and the blood from the wound is unusually dark. A searing, burning feeling permeates the wound, as the hemotoxin begins to attack the flesh. High Speed regeneration slows, as it works to counteract this effect, causing other wounds to heal slowly. Light infection progresses to medium infection if either 4 posts pass, or 4 doses of the toxin are delivered, or some combination of the two. The victim may pay 100 reiatsu to suppress the effects of this level of infection, though it does not halt progression. The use may pay 200 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Moderate Infection: the wound has begun to rot, a putrid stench bubbling out of it. The blood it self has begun to rust, turning a person’s blood orange or yellow making it incredibly painful, but as well, incredibly difficult to circulate oxygen, causing the person’s cells to begin dying from a rapid onset anemia.

Severe Infection: The wound has reached a critical stage, and without immediate medical care, the victim will die. If after 4 posts of severe infection the perosn is not healed or the poison is purged, they will die. As the anemia becomes terminal, a person’s organs are starved of oxygen and begin to shut down, as their body drowns on dry land, with no oxygen in the system, the body suffers, and everything begins to shut down. At the end of 4 posts, or 4 hits of poison from this weapon, the person dies. To suppress the effects of this, the user pays 400 rieatsu, but still dies at the end of progression.

Class: 4

Technique Type: Garganta Technique

Usable By: Hollow/Arrancar

Technique Element: None

Technique Description and Effects:

This technique is used in conjunction with another beam or projectile type attack by forming a small tear in the path of the technique, as well as several around the opponent. The Technique is "shattered" separated into ten separate fragments that are launched at the target from various angles. Because of this, he technique is much harder to avoid and can surprise targets The fragments are half as potent as the original technique. Also because of the use of gargantuan, the original technique does not even need to be fired at the opponent.

How to use technique: Create a small Garganta in the path of the technique, as well as ten others around the target.

Technique Drawbacks (Limitations, repercussions for use, etc):

Requires knowledge of the enemy's position, additionally the technique costs 100 reiatsu along with multiplying the reiatsu cost of the effected technique by 1.5

[Camila Adaronde]

Squinting her eyes As the Arrancar seemed to take a moment to himself, plotting something, Camila wondered just what had gone through his head. To say it was interesting would've been an understatement. In fact, this whole thing was quite interesting to the girl! She'd practically been on the edge of her seat the entire time, that much was for certain.

Arcadus was certainly no slouch of an opponent. He'd been able to dish out quite a bit of punishment to the girl. Punishment that, if she hadn't been able to heal, could've easily threatened to put her down at some point. Though, she wasn't going to let something like that get to her. Not now, anyway. She had a fight to win, and she was going to be damned if she couldn't do exactly that.

As numerous Kumon began to open around her, Camila took a deep breath. She'd known this technique from her fight with Alacrán! As the Cero fired from the portals, blasting in her direction at a slow speed from her view, the girl let out a bloodcurdling scream. One that left very visible distortions around her, and caused her own reiatsu to blast outward in an uncontrolled, untamed hellscape within fifty feet of her - something the Arrancar would've been similarly subject to, if he hadn't been able to simply faze through it.

Though, his attacks had not been so lucky.

Given the sheer force of her voice booming through the air, her own spiritual prowess overpowering the incoming Cero and destroying them before they could do much of anything, Camila smirked toward the Espada as she screamed out. She'd been covered from the impending danger that threatened her, and was ready to go on the offensive. She'd have to, if she wanted any hope of doing anything against this foe.

Though, this wasn't to be without a rather risky maneuver on her own part. Channeling the last bit of her remaining blood into the ground beneath her feet, Camila watched as a half-decayed corpse of a Shinigami rose from the sands, propping herself up through a clearly-battered Zanpakutō. A corpse had been brought back from the dead, fully-prepared to fight for Camila.

BLOOD FRENZY

Though, as the Vizard quickly found herself losing to her own impulses, Camila jammed a pair of fingers into the ghoul's neck, siphoning out a good portion of the blood that she'd been summoned with. Enough to reinvigorate the Shinigami, and calm her spiked violent impulses. At least, a little bit. Letting out a soft sigh, Camila looked onward to the foe that she'd been ready to fight.

Blitzing forward via Shunpō, Camila made sure she was around four feet back from the Espada before going in for a series of movements, almost like that of a dance. Throwing her fist out in front of her as to punch the air, Camila blasted not one, but two separate shockwaves forward; one created from her own strike, and one from a near-invisible manifestation, quite similar to herself in appearance.

Following through from here, and gliding along the sand around the Espada, Camila fired another one of these dual-shockwave strikes toward the Espada, at a similarly blinding Speed, at point-blank range. She wanted to see just what she could do in order to damage the fiery spirit, and she hoped that something like this was going to work. Given the Speed advantage here, Camila was fairly certain that at least one of these strikes was to hit; assuming that was the case, she'd actually be providing Arcadus with a bit of her own fortitude; enough to give him a boost to not only his Strength, but his Reiatsu Strength as well.

{闇の輪廻 - Yami no Rin'ne (lit. 'Cycle of Darkness')}

Technique Name: 闇の輪廻 - Yami no Rin'ne (lit. 'Cycle of Darkness')

Release Type: Bankai / Resurrección.

Technique Cost: 250 Reiatsu | 50 Blood Gauge.

Description: Utilizing her own blood to provide a source of vitality, and reiatsu to provide an explosive 'jump-start' to a once-dead soul, Yami no Rin'ne rips a being back from undeath to provide them with a breath of life once again. Bringing forth a situationally-appropriate ghoul, this creature possesses its own 'stat block', as described in the blow spoiler. This ghoul possesses a durability equal to three times its Strength stat, and possesses a specific version of one of Camila's release techniques. Alternatively, those that have been ghoulified via the Resurrección technique Hōketsu Suru are eligible targets for this ability, as described in that technique.

{Ghoul Stats}
Strength: 800
Speed: 800
Reiatsu Strength: 0 (immune to Cutback)
Spiritual Pressure: 0 (immune to Cutback)
Instinct: 300
Senses: 50
Energy Sensory: 100
Healing Expertise: 0

To start, this ghoul retains its own Blood Gauge, ticking at the same rate as Camila's and filling under the same circumstances, but does not have Shred or Soak. Instead, this serves as a "pool" for Camila to draw upon to drain the ghoul. By full-feeding on this Ghoul, Camila is capable of drawing any amount of this Blood Gauge into her own, dropping the Ghoul's durability by 100 for every 10 points drained.

This ghoul possesses a variation of Camila's Yoru no Hōyō technique, allowing for the embracing of those Camila deems appropriate, and is a valid target for this technique as well, though this ghoul cannot target Camila. Instead of spending reiatsu however, this ghoul must pay the full cost in Blood Gauge instead. Other than that, this technique functions as normal. In Resurrección, this Ghoul's Blood Gauge costs are halved, and Camila gains twice as much Blood Gauge that she steals from this ghoul.

How to Use: Call forth a being of unlife to fight alongside the user.

Drawbacks: Relatively expensive, and only one can be created at any given time. This ghoul has no Class, meaning all attacks will damage its durability; multi-hit techniques will only subtract durability for that single technique, and not for each individual hit. Its uses are immediately undermined if someone focuses the ghoul instead of Camila, requiring the creation of a new one. Yami no Rin'ne cannot be used within three posts of its last activation, requiring a period of cooldown if someone destroys the ghoul before that timer expires.

{血まみれ踊り: ケイデンス - Chimamire Odori: Keidensu (lit. 'Bloodstained Dance: Cadence')}
Technique Name: 血まみれ踊り: ケイデンス - Chimamire Odori: Keidensu (lit. 'Bloodstained Dance: Cadence')

Technique Class: 1 - 250 TTP.

Technique Type: General Physical | Action Modifier.

Usable By: All Races.

Technique Element: N/A.

Technique Cost: 0 Reiatsu

Description: By expending two Sonata stacks as part of a Sonata action, the user can create a manifestation of their will in the process, extending the range of that action to 150%. Actions made by this manifestation utilize Reiatsu Strength instead of Strength, despite this technique requiring no reiatsu control to perform. This technique still counts as a physical attack, and applies the user's on-hit effects. Proficiency lowers the Sonata cost to one, increases this range extension to 225%, and causes attacks to provide a 5% debuff to the victim's Reiatsu Strength and Spiritual Pressure. Mastery increases this range extension to 300%, removes the base Sonata cost, and allows the user to spend Sonata stacks in order to apply an additional 5% to this debuff for each stack. Usable by Fighters, Kenpachi, and other types that lack fine reiatsu control. Requires 250 Energy Sensory in order to see the manifestation.

How to Use: Add 'punctuation' to each Sonata action taken, creating a 'copy' of themselves as a pure manifestation of their will in order to not only bolster their range, but strike directly at the spirit of their foes.

Drawbacks: Requires a 4 in Weapons - Claws, and a 3 in both Acrobatics and Strength of Will. Manifesting one's will consistently is a painful process. A 2 in Pain Tolerance is required in order to do so once with massive repercussions (inability to move for one post due to pain). A 3 in Pain Tolerance is required in order to do so more than once while still suffering debilitations (50% cut to Speed and Strength for two posts after use). A 4 in Pain Tolerance is required in order to use this technique unhindered. Debuff caps at 50%, and additional applications overlap, not stack. This debuff can be healed by having a Healing Expertise greater than the attacker's Reiatsu Strength; High-Speed Regeneration, debuff-cleansing effects, and other similar abilities have no effect on this ability.

Technique Class: 4 - 40 TTP.

Technique Type: General Physical | Sonata Action.

Usable By: All Races.

Technique Element: N/A.

Technique Cost: 0 Reiatsu.

Description: By spending a Sonata stack, the user is capable of sliding to a location within seven feet of them, at three-times their Speed. With Proficiency, this increases to five-times their Speed. With Mastery, this increases to seven-times their Speed.

How to Use: Shift locations, sliding along the ground as though they'd 'vibrated' to their new location.

Drawbacks: Requires a 2 in Weapons - Claws, and Acrobatics. Counts against the number of Sonata attacks the user can make in a single post. Uses a Stepping Technique slot for the post. Extremely limited range, requiring it be chained in order to get the most out of it, thus burning step tech slots.

{夜の抱擁 - Yoru no Hōyō (lit. 'Embrace of the Night')}

Technique Name: 夜の抱擁 - Yoru no Hōyō (lit. 'Embrace of the Night')

Release Type: Shikai / Bankai / Resurrección.

Technique Cost: 200 Reiatsu | 50 Blood Gauge (30 in Bankai).

Description: Upon making a successful strike to the neck with her claws, Camila can inject her own blood into those that become victim of her in order to provide that individual with a number of both benefits and detriments. Those that Camila injects are provided with a 25% increase to both Strength and Reiatsu Strength, taking some of her own capabilities in the process. This gift can be granted multiple times, providing up to a 100% (200% in Resurrección) increase to both statistics in the process. While providing this benefit to allies, Camila strips them of their own blood before providing them with her own, granting 2 Ranks in Bleeding Tolerance (increased to 3 in Bankai). These boosts last for 5 posts, with this duration refreshed upon additional application.

In terms of the penalties those with Camila's blood face, there are quite a number of them. For one, they become much more photosensitive with each gift, penalizing them with a 20% decrease to Instinct with each usage against bright or light-based attacks, like cero and other beams, and also resulting in the target taking 20% more damage from these attacks. Reiatsu costs will be increased by 15% as they maintain less control over the force of their own soul, and they'll also begin to feel Camila's own thirst for blood. One gift leaves them in a rather all right state, with each gift thereafter requiring one Rank in Strength of Will or Bleeding Tolerance, whichever is higher, in order to overcome this frenzied state of mind. Should one not have the requisite Ranks in either Skill, they'll be left with this hunger, turning on allies and enemies alike in order to feed. Because of this, Yoru no Hōyō serves as a phenomenal tool to forcibly embrace a number of civilians in order to fight those alongside Camila and cause general chaos. Nameless NPCs afflicted with these gifts will last for no more than two posts before eventually perishing outright from the high concentration of spirit energy coursing through their veins. Bankai increases this to four posts, and allows those that frenzy to pass this gift onto others with a successful bite to the neck. These benefits for all others last until the end of the thread.

In Bankai, Camila is given the opportunity to consume the essence of those she's granted this gift to, consuming their soul and reaping these benefits for herself with little penalty. By paying only the reiatsu cost as a part of a full-feeding, Camila can drain the target of the blood she'd granted them, leaving them as but a husk of what they once were while stealing the benefits of this technique from them, stealing the bonus to Strength and Reiatsu Strength, without any of the negatives. It is her blood, after all. Those in a Frenzied state while this portion of the technique is utilized on them will be left dead, but those currently in control of themselves will instead be left subject to the normal repercussions of Camila's feedings.

How to Use: Drain an ally or feign feeding on an enemy, then provide a gift of Camila's own blood. / Commit sin, and consume your own kin.

Drawbacks: Provided the damage that a full-feeding can do, this technique is inherently dangerous to utilize. Even with the drawbacks attached, injecting an enemy with Camila's own blood will grant rather noteworthy bonuses to them, making it more often not worth the reward from doing so. Stealing back her own blood in Bankai can only be done three posts after the most recent bestowal of this gift, as the blood needs time to remain in their system. Stealing back blood has a very real possibility to kill those involved, making it incredibly dangerous to perform on allies. Non-statted NPCs can only push Camila up to a 50% bonus, before she needs to begin relying on statted NPCs and RPCs.

[Arcadus]

Arcadus watched Cami as she retaliated, she clearly recognized this attack, and going off of that, he could tell by her reaction she needed to counter it. That was good, it meant his pressuring was working. THat said, he did feel a tinge of doubt as he saw all ten of his ceros disappated, even denying himself those flames that would have been made in the missed attacks. Regardless, he had to marvel at her strength.

Flashing Ambition's Blaze again, his form once again peeled away to reveal gold flames in a rough silhouette, but he extinguished it as quickly as it came, keeping his feet planted as he saw that Cami disappeared, and he had only a begun to raise his gaurd, as a shockwave caught him in the stomach, absorbed by his steel silk but still forcing him into a defense as its sister caught him in the chest with no armor to cover him.

As the shockwave hit him, he could feel rieatsu burst within him, his strength and spirit returning, not amplified! His Hierro, charged further. Whether a quirk of his hollow nature to absorb rieatsu, or some trick of Camilla, he wasn't sure, but his instincts told him to press this advantage. As the second set of shockwaves hit him, he coudl see Camilla moving, as she hadn't stepped between her first attack and her second.

Now with her in point blank range, Arcadus took this oppurtunity to shift forward, as if his larger frame was inviting the shockwaves into his resonating iron skin. He flexed a blinding flash of light from his increased spiritual strength to blind Camilla, immune to his own attacks thanks to his release, slashed through the empty white with an ichor soaked blade, hoping to claim another cut into Camilla.

Going off of this, he really, really, should consider trying to end this fight now, especially with this boost in strength in power. Besides that, he wasn't sure if he could keep up with this kind of damage without dipping into his reserve of flames, and even as he thought that, he at least ceased the bleeding pounding of his head, likely mending whatever fracture was there so he could focus.

For a fight to the death, maybe he was just blinded by his liking of Camilla, but he didn't think that this was all that bad. It wasn't the desperate fight to the finish that the last one was, and he had stood his ground, not a single step had been taken back. Arcadus smiled. How much fun this was! And he was ready to finish it off with a big bang, and hopefully Camilla would be able to at least put this matter aside for now. Worst to worst, he clips her with Cero Garandou.

{Insect Rust}Description: This 32 inch falchion, serves as Arcadus’s reminder to those who challenge his position in the Espada, or in his own endeavors. Seemingly forged from chitin, this blades’s white and porous surface gives it the look of being made of bone. It drips a black liquid when held, tinging the material grey, and this liquid sizzles when it hits the ground. The hirigana for Insect Rust (虫さび) are engraved on it’s flat. It’s grip seems to end in a molded hip joint.
Class: Class 1

Item Type: Offensive

Item Power (IP): 1100

Offense Type: Physical and Spiritual

Durability: 2200

Bonuses: This swords’s liquid, is in fact a powerful hemo toxin that is meant to mimic the dangerous and venomous abilities of a previous’s Espada. This venom, when it enters a target through an injury or through dripping into an open wound or exposed area, like an eye or mouth, begins the stages of infection.

The level of infection is determined by the target’s poison resist skill, being ineffective against poison resist 3, light infection against poison resist 2, moderate moderate from poison resist 1, and severe infection from a target with no poison resist. The blade requires a charge of reiatsu to produce enough toxin to be used effectively, and to properly charge it, the user must pay 100 reiatsu. When charged, the black ichor begins to stream off of the blade. High Speed Regeneration can double the posts or hits needed to progress to the next stage. This effect can of course be healed with sufficient HE to treat poisons and the appropriate medical conditions. The use may pay 100 rieatsu to instead end this condition, or, this condition may be ended through cauterization of the infected area (increasing in size with progressing stages.) or a purging of one's blood.

Light Infection: The wound displays copper and green discoloration, as if a copper statue is rusting, and the blood from the wound is unusually dark. A searing, burning feeling permeates the wound, as the hemotoxin begins to attack the flesh. High Speed regeneration slows, as it works to counteract this effect, causing other wounds to heal slowly. Light infection progresses to medium infection if either 4 posts pass, or 4 doses of the toxin are delivered, or some combination of the two. The victim may pay 100 reiatsu to suppress the effects of this level of infection, though it does not halt progression. The use may pay 200 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Moderate Infection: the wound has begun to rot, a putrid stench bubbling out of it. The blood it self has begun to rust, turning a person’s blood orange or yellow making it incredibly painful, but as well, incredibly difficult to circulate oxygen, causing the person’s cells to begin dying from a rapid onset anemia. The victim finds themselves feeling weak, as their heart works harder to pump less effective blood to dying muscles and organs. Lightheadedness, exhaustion, and general weakness pervade the victim, and their ability to use techniques that require large amounts of stamina (mechanically if stamina cost is listed as a drawback) is compromised, costing double the needed stamina to utilize these techniques. One can suppress these effects for 200 reiatsu a post to stave off these effects. As with the last stage, to progress to the severw stage, either 4 posts must pass at moderate infection or 4 hits of the venom, or a combination of the two. The use may pay 400 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Severe Infection: The wound has reached a critical stage, and without immediate medical care, the victim will die. If after 4 posts of severe infection the perosn is not healed or the poison is purged, they will die. As the anemia becomes terminal, a person’s organs are starved of oxygen and begin to shut down, as their body drowns on dry land, with no oxygen in the system, the body suffers, and everything begins to shut down. At the end of 4 posts, or 4 hits of poison from this weapon, the person dies. To suppress the effects of this, the user pays 400 rieatsu, but still dies at the end of progression. The target may pay 800 rieatsu to instead end this condition

[Camila Adaronde]

As the girl's last strikes managed to impact the Espada with noteworthy force, Camila couldn't help but grin. This was it! This was the opportunity that she needed in order to take advantage of the situation once more, and finally turn the tide of the fight at hand. She wasn't going to let herself be caught from some stray strike against her, that much was certain.

And a stray strike is exactly what Arcadus had planned against her. As another flash of blinding light exploded from the Espada, Camila grunted in frustration before following with the exact same maneuver, and simply rotating around the man thanks to Vibrato. Not only was her spiritual flashbang physically impairing, but given his own inclination toward spiritual awareness, everything was soon to be "white" for a moment. This hadn't even begun to factor in the noticeable photosensitivity that was going to be wracking his body. Throwing one more fist toward the Arrancar's side, she prepared to back up.

Still though, she was ready to take the opportunity to escape. Falling for the same trick twice wasn't exactly in the Vizard's list of goals for the afternoon. Backstepping once more through Shunpō as her vision eventually squared itself away, Camila took a deep breath as her blood had depleted down to near-nothing once again. Though, she wasn't about to frenzy this time; instead, she was taking the opportunity to recuperate her reiryoku a tad.

"That's IT!" She shouted, her own spiritual presence flaring around her for a time, transferring into raw killing potential, "LET'S SEE YOU DEAL WITH THIS, ESPADA!" Throwing her hands out to her side, and immediately condensing a selection of three cero, Camila released off a blast in front of her that threatened to devour the sky.

"SŌDAINA KOKŪ TAIHŌ!!"

As her words echoed through the desert, the explosive power of Camila's own Cero tore through the sand, glass, and everything else ahead of her, looking to decimate absolutely anything and everything in her path. The blast was far, far larger than any Cero that had once threatened the land; a blast like that would've easily enveloped a person if she so desired. The question was, could Arcadus stand up to the challenge? Especially given it was once again going to bring problems with his photosensitivity.

{精神若返り - Seishin Wakagaeri (lit. 'Spirit Rejuvenation')}

Technique Name: 精神若返り - Seishin Wakagaeri (lit. 'Spirit Rejuvenation')

Release Type: Shikai / Bankai / Resurrección.

Technique Cost: 0 Reiatsu | 10+ Blood Gauge.

Description: By burning some of the blood in her reserves, Camila is able to convert it into spirit particles, acting as a sort of 'backup reserves' for the girl's Reiatsu pool. Costing a minimum of 10 Blood Gauge, Camila will grant herself 75 reiatsu in return to pump herself back up. In Bankai, this amount is increased to 100 reiatsu per 10 Blood Gauge. In Resurrección, this becomes 125 reiatsu per 10 Blood Gauge.

How to Use: Boil blood, and charge reiatsu.

Drawbacks: Seishin Wakagaeri takes a moment to activate, and requires focus to utilize, leaving the user vulnerable during the duration and providing an opening for those in question. Similarly, this technique flexes the user's spiritual presence, making them very easily detectable by those within a half-mile radius, even to those with 0 Energy Sensory.

Technique Name: 暗闇: 壮大な虚空大砲 - Kurayami: Sōdaina Kokū Taihō (lit. 'Darkness: Grand Void Cannon')

Technique Class: 1 - 250 TTP.

Technique Type: Vizard - Kurayami.

Usable By: Vizards.

Technique Element: Cero.

Technique Cost: 1,000 Reiatsu.

Description: Taking the Vizard's Cero and expanding upon it, Sōdaina Kokū Taihō is three of these lasers in one. Creating three individual Cero - one in each of the user's hands, and another directly in front of their mouth, the user blasts them forth all at once, merging the lasers and unleashing an absolutely massive blast in the process. While a Kurayami technique, Sōdaina Kokū Taihō functions similarly to Vizard's Cero, and acts almost as a direct extension of such. At any point while the Vizard Mask is active, this technique functions at 3x the user's Reiatsu Strength. By doubling costs, and putting in more reiatsu as opposed to concentrating the power of the blast, Spiritual Pressure can be used instead of Reiatsu Strength. Being an extension of Vizard's Cero, this technique can be learned by Fighters.

While Learned, this technique will function at 2.5x the Vizard's Reiatsu Strength while they don't have their mask active. This blast is three times as large as a Gran Rey Cero.
While Proficient, this technique will function at 2.75x the Vizard's Reiatsu Strength while they don't have their mask active. This blast is five times as large as a Gran Rey Cero.
While Mastered, this technique will function at 3x the Vizard's Reiatsu Strength at all times. This blast is seven times as large as a Gran Rey Cero.

How to Use: Concentrate three lasers, and blast them outward.

Drawbacks: Exuberant Reiatsu cost for what it does. Requires Vizard's Cero at Mastered before this technique can be Learned. This technique always starts at Learned, regardless of the user's Class. Cannot be learned unless the Vizard has at least 4 total posts on their Mask Duration. Can be used once per post. This technique will cost reiatsu despite Vizard Mask's infinite reiatsu duration.

[Arcadus]

Arcadus saw Camilla's grin as she dance away from him, and as he blinded her, she inturn, blinded him, his swing flying through empty air. Arcadus slammed his eyes shut, trying his best to focus and try and clear this blindness. He needed to remain flexible, able to move if needed, or more likely, react. He tried to clear this. Move, Move, MOVE! Arcadus could hear Camilla a ways away, yelling something. He wasn't sure what the hell was happening, Cami had blinded him, and things felt like they were moving too fast.

He could hear the roar of a cero charging, and as it washed over him, Arcadus burned and sizzled in the cero, feeling it wash over he'd been tossed into a furnace. All the same, KILL KILL KILL"CERO GARANDOU, SLASH AND BURN ALL THAT IS!" A wave of black formed in his hand in an instant, overtaking the red all consuming light in a void of space. Arcadus looked over. He'd missed, MISSED in his moment of triumph!

Clenching his other hand, Arcadus summoned back rieatsu to him, as fires winked out across the sands, Arcadus's arm, which had all but disappated to ash, reformed, flame burning out from his shoulder to form a new limb. Gathering his Rieatsu again, Arcadus aimed his new Cero Garandou and fired, the firing arm again turning to ash as Arcadus staggered back, finally moved from his spot in the sands.

He didn't want to Kill Camilla. But in that cero, it felt like to force an end to this, he may well have to, as much as he did not want to. The empty wave sprang forth, and Arcadus prayed that Camilla was able to move and deal with this. But in his heart, Arcadus accepted that this might end poorly. Such was life in the Espada. She brought him out here to kill him, or at least try, and if he won he would have proven himself superior. Healing his arm again, Arcadus scanned for Cami.

He could still dance, but he certianly didn't want to. Blistered, burned, in agony. Arcadus could stand, but he couldn't run. He didn't like his odds, but if cami was clipped by one of his beams, he liked her odds less.

{Insect Rust}Description: This 32 inch falchion, serves as Arcadus’s reminder to those who challenge his position in the Espada, or in his own endeavors. Seemingly forged from chitin, this blades’s white and porous surface gives it the look of being made of bone. It drips a black liquid when held, tinging the material grey, and this liquid sizzles when it hits the ground. The hirigana for Insect Rust (虫さび) are engraved on it’s flat. It’s grip seems to end in a molded hip joint.
Class: Class 1

Item Type: Offensive

Item Power (IP): 1100

Offense Type: Physical and Spiritual

Durability: 2200

Bonuses: This swords’s liquid, is in fact a powerful hemo toxin that is meant to mimic the dangerous and venomous abilities of a previous’s Espada. This venom, when it enters a target through an injury or through dripping into an open wound or exposed area, like an eye or mouth, begins the stages of infection.

The level of infection is determined by the target’s poison resist skill, being ineffective against poison resist 3, light infection against poison resist 2, moderate moderate from poison resist 1, and severe infection from a target with no poison resist. The blade requires a charge of reiatsu to produce enough toxin to be used effectively, and to properly charge it, the user must pay 100 reiatsu. When charged, the black ichor begins to stream off of the blade. High Speed Regeneration can double the posts or hits needed to progress to the next stage. This effect can of course be healed with sufficient HE to treat poisons and the appropriate medical conditions. The use may pay 100 rieatsu to instead end this condition, or, this condition may be ended through cauterization of the infected area (increasing in size with progressing stages.) or a purging of one's blood.

Light Infection: The wound displays copper and green discoloration, as if a copper statue is rusting, and the blood from the wound is unusually dark. A searing, burning feeling permeates the wound, as the hemotoxin begins to attack the flesh. High Speed regeneration slows, as it works to counteract this effect, causing other wounds to heal slowly. Light infection progresses to medium infection if either 4 posts pass, or 4 doses of the toxin are delivered, or some combination of the two. The victim may pay 100 reiatsu to suppress the effects of this level of infection, though it does not halt progression. The use may pay 200 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Moderate Infection: the wound has begun to rot, a putrid stench bubbling out of it. The blood it self has begun to rust, turning a person’s blood orange or yellow making it incredibly painful, but as well, incredibly difficult to circulate oxygen, causing the person’s cells to begin dying from a rapid onset anemia. The victim finds themselves feeling weak, as their heart works harder to pump less effective blood to dying muscles and organs. Lightheadedness, exhaustion, and general weakness pervade the victim, and their ability to use techniques that require large amounts of stamina (mechanically if stamina cost is listed as a drawback) is compromised, costing double the needed stamina to utilize these techniques. One can suppress these effects for 200 reiatsu a post to stave off these effects. As with the last stage, to progress to the severw stage, either 4 posts must pass at moderate infection or 4 hits of the venom, or a combination of the two. The use may pay 400 rieatsu to instead end this condition

Severe Infection: The wound has reached a critical stage, and without immediate medical care, the victim will die. If after 4 posts of severe infection the perosn is not healed or the poison is purged, they will die. As the anemia becomes terminal, a person’s organs are starved of oxygen and begin to shut down, as their body drowns on dry land, with no oxygen in the system, the body suffers, and everything begins to shut down. At the end of 4 posts, or 4 hits of poison from this weapon, the person dies. To suppress the effects of this, the user pays 400 rieatsu, but still dies at the end of progression. The target may pay 800 rieatsu to instead end this condition

[Camila Adaronde]

As her own laser had fired out, Camila made immediate notice of the fact that the Espada was preparing something big. Such was the only thing that she could think of, especially after launching such an absolutely massive, powerful attack of her own. What else could it be? Not to mention, she'd never heard of a technique called "Cero Garandou". Just what on earth was this??

Such made itself incredibly clear, however, when an all-encompassing inky blackness fired out from her own attack. Though, it was fired off in such a way that seemed to be quite skewed from her own attack. Though, the attack itself did not sit well with her at all. Instead of being similar to a Cero Oscuras - which she was innately familiar with thanks to the Septima Espada of old - this simply left nothing in its path. The world had been absolutely decimated, down to what seemed to be every fucking particle. Every fiber of the girl's being told her something about that technique was very, very wrong.

A sentiment that only extended further as the roar of another Cero made itself present from within her own attack.

As the color around the area quickly began to fade, leaving her own attack to be enveloped in this primordial darkness, Camila immediately decided to get the fuck out of dodge. Taking to the air through Shunpō, she did what she could in order to get out of the way of the attack. And, for a time? It looked like the girl was going to be all right. For a time.

Looking back toward the all-encompassing darkness that had headed her way, Camila saw a rather concerning sight; her left leg had been vaporized. Granted, she had the tolerance to resist such a strike, and given there was no noteworthy feeling of severing as it was just simply vaporized and effectively removed from her body altogether.

Catching her balance in the sand, and landing on one foot, Camila forced her body beyond what she normally should've, and a new leg exploded outward from the wound that had been caused. Breathing deep, in and out, Camila did what she could to keep herself calm. While not necessarily in a state of losing herself to the Beast, Camila knew full-well that she wasn't going to be able to last like this very well.

BLOOD FRENZY

Taking a number of breaths in order to continue to stay calm, Camila gritted her teeth. She realized quickly herself that, while she could continue to fight, could hold her own against the Espada, both of them were very much on their last legs. There was little reason to continue this, lest someone was truly going to perish here.

"Arcadus," she called out, "look at us. We're both at our limits; we're pushing each other to the brink, with no real victor coming through, aye?" She let out a breathy chuckle. "What say you to callin' it here? Both've us walk away, yeah? Live to fight another day, where I can come back 'round n' kick your ass after I tap into whatever I can." She laughed. If nothing else, it was good to fight a friend, but she wasn't going to let her guard down; not yet, until after everything had resolved.

[Arcadus]

Arcadus stood, feet sunk into the sand, and reeled in pain. He was burned all over, his clothes were in tatters, his hierro worn down to almost nothing, pathches of skin burned away, and his injuries worsened. He did not fare well from being hit from that Cero, regardless of any defenses he had. Pain threatened to overwhelm him, and only by strength of will was he standing. He had to focus, to maintain a consistent thread of his surroundings, and he centered himself on his immediate location.

He could see the incredible devestation the fight had caused throughout the desert. Cami had effectively dug a trench all around him with her cero, and both of his had created tributaries, though his were clean cut, like scooping wet sand out of a beach. Cero Garandou had vaporized the sand rather than melting it, and looking into the sky he could see a cloud of silica gas that likely came from it. Smoke wicked from his flames that blew all around. 

Looking into the sky, Arcadus also noticed Camilla, who seemed to be missing her leg. Good. He was glad to have actually clipped someone with it, and in this fight, that might have actually been the hit he needed to put camilla down. He'd taken hit after hit, and she relatively hadn't taken that much damage. It was impressive how much he'd been able to stand up to her punishment. He registered her grizzly regeneration, and panic raced into his heart. 

He needed to breathe. It felt like something in him had collapsed, and likely it was a couple of his ribs. Focus, focus. If the fight was continuing, he needed to be able to defend himself. But he could hear Camilla starting to speak, and he decided to listen. She wanted to call this for a time, since there wasn't really a victor emerging, and she would come back and do this again. No, she was joking, it was humor, and smirking, Arcadus nodded. 

As he was about to speak, something Atlas told him repeated in his mind. “Regardless, perhaps this is a point of learning of the discretion of one's dealings, even among one's friends. You are not the entity of endless persuasion you might think you are Arcadus. You have the ability to sway thousands to your side, but like a large stone in a beach, the waves cannot move it, despite the sand it moves." The older Arrancar's words gave him pause. 

Sensing out her emotions, Arcadus could feel a boiling desire in Cami to kill, to feed, to give in and let rip against anything she can find. And this feeling crashed against her will, like a huge levy holding back a flood. She was clearly holding back her bankai, but her reluctance to drop it was either her not trusting him, her waiting for him to trust her, or she was trying to bait him into lowering his guard. Arcadus gripped his weapon briefly, and considered his options.

In this time since joining the Espada, he'd learned how to enjoy companionship, but he was faced with a more difficult task. Trusting someone, especially someone who is duty bound to kill him for his actions. That was a difficult task, and as he considered it, voices began speaking in his mind. The other souls within his form, in his time of emotional weakness, wormed forth to give their word on the matter. Valeron, the mage, spoke first. 

"Arcadus, you can't trust her, but you can cooperate with her. She's loyal to Kouhai, who has no interest in your future, only your present serving of him. Your best option is to accept the ceasefire and go elsewhere before her bloodlust over comes her and we enter into the fight again." Oren, the warrior, spoke. "She is a warrior through and through, she will keep the agreement she can't speak, that this proves your loyalty and that you are free from your punishment."

From his iron cell, the old and grizzled Giovanni spoke in his raspy voice. "Kid, your best bet is to take the deal, and from here, seek your other options. What's to say she doesn't mean her joke seriously and one day she'll come back with a magic bullet just for you? Clear out of here before you get hurt worse than you already are." Arcadus sighed at the souls's relative unity, a rare occurance, but he could feel the other, the hidden one making its presence and opinion known.

Whispered from within the folds of his mind, Arcadus could hear it speak. "You shouldn't trust her. She doesn't fear you, she fears the idea that she could be punished, that she might somehow fail, that king in rags and dust she is sworn to. Kill her, Kill her now at the cost of anything to survive. You don't have friends, Arcadus. You have temporary alliances, meant to be broken at your most oppurtune or convenient. Do it. Kill her."

Arcadus, perhaps more in rejection of his greater hollow spirit, or at the beckoning of his human souls, decided to trust Camilla. "Cami, I'll take you up on your offer. We go back to being friends and Kouhai gets a satisfactory report, and things go back to normal, and maybe we do this again sometime. I'd rather neither of us die, and I hope this whole display, instead of me running, I've stood to do things the way our lord wants them done. Might makes right, and in this particular impasse, we compromise." 


Arcadus slackened his grip on his sword, letting it fall into the sand with a scraping sound. His ressurection flickered as his flames across the desert winked out, his black attire receding to show his near naked form, clothed only by the remains of his espada uniform. Falling to a knee, Arcadus fought off passing out from exhaustion. He'd really pushed himself in this fight, and realistically its what he had wanted. To finally be pushed to this limit, and as a bonus, really produced a fight that could be shown as a true sign that might made right to Kouhai.
