Arc 1 ~ Canon S-3: New Generations: Arrancar [Hard, DE]

[Shizuka Sanamizu ✮]

Name: Arc 1 ~ Canon S-3: New Generations: Arrancar, Series 3

Participants: Max of 4 allowed. Restricted to Class 2-0

Location: Karakura Town, Japan

Difficulty Level: Hard

Threat Level: DE

Plotline: The danger has finally come to a head. The strongest people are forced to face off against the strongest gods. This may be the only way to save the world, but were the other teams successful enough to make it easier on this group? Are they going to come out victorious, or will there be consequences?

Estimated Enemy Strength: Class 0

Estimated Time Until Completion: 5 pages

Starts: October 26, 2024

Special Conditions: Each character can only join one Canon thread at a time. There is a strict one-week posting timer that begins once a previous participant posts. If the next participant fails to post during their turn during this time period, they get skipped. This does not mean they get dropped, but that participant’s character will suffer the consequences (such as being forced to take whatever damage has occurred due to a previous poster’s actions). Participants are free to drop if they so choose and new participants can join, but there can only ever be a maximum of four participants at any time. If someone gets skipped, the DM will post who was skipped and whose turn it is to post. If any participant is skipped 3 times within the Canon thread, they will be automatically dropped and someone new may be permitted to join.

DISCLAIMER: I fully expect your characters' Classes to increase because of other threads outside of the Canon! That is okay, but you are required to use the stats and skills your character has at the time of Canon entry. They cannot be updated. If your character was Class 6 for an Easy thread, for example, and you post your stats and skills as they were at Class 6, then that is what they will be throughout the duration of the Canon thread. If your character's Class increases to 5, that is okay. They are still required to use their Class 6 values. Likewise, if your character was Class 8 at the time of entry and increased to Class 6 outside of the Canon, they must still use their Class 8 stat and skill values. The same rule applies for any power changes/additions.

What is on the Plate?

[Shizuka Sanamizu ✮]

Sign-ups for this thread are now closed! I'll post the intro on October 26th and then character intro posts can be made in any order, but once the order is established after everyone posts their character intro, that will be the posting order going forward.

[Shizuka Sanamizu ✮]

"Brothers! We must reconvene! We have been apart for too long. Our original brother, the Soul King, has been searching for us and getting his people to do his dirty work for him. As expected, of course, yet disappointing. We need to defeat him if we want any hope of regaining our abilities."

Welt cried out at the sky, his voice bellowing for his brothers to hear. No one else would be able to catch a word, and it was intended to be that way. Welt was not trying to gather the attention of anyone other than his brothers, after all. Should some stranger be around to hear their plans, that would utterly ruin them. The blonde Arrancar found himself atop Mount Fuji since he knew no human would be able to reach him so quickly. Within moments, he heard thunderous booming as each of his brothers descended from the sky, one by one. He knew he was right to proclaim himself the leader of the group as they all listened so well.

"Welt, we have been doing everything we can," Sekai exclaimed, tossing his black hair behind his shoulders.

It was the longest out of the three of them, and he enjoyed that. Sekai was abundantly aware of how he looked at all times. A prideful Arrancar, he cared about his appearance and fashion more than just about anything else. He immediately studied the latest trends upon his reawakening which prompted him to go to Europe in the first place and explore some of the most fashionable cities on the planet. Having no desire to go back to Soul Society despite creating it, he wished to remain in the World of the Living for as long as he wanted. He didn't care what his brother, Welt, had to say. It mattered not that he was its creator.

"It's been a while since we've all been together in the same place, hermano. Don't you feel like maybe this is a bad omen?"

Mundo was always the pessimist. He immediately suspected the worst scenario and couldn't get it out of his head. His dark brown hair, only a few inches long at most, had a few snowflakes falling on top of it as they gently floated down from the sky. The three brothers didn't feel the cold the way normal humans did. Even with Mundo's light brown skin, nothing like that bothered him. In fact, all three of them were wearing ceremonial robes of some kind, and Mundo's chest was completely exposed. Strong, muscled arms crossed over his chest as he stared at Welt with intense curiosity. Despite his anxiety, he was also intrigued.

"I understand the concern, but there must be more. Perhaps we need to be looking at the Soul King's favorite play things. He used to care for us the way he seems to care for them now. They would be his weakness."

"Ooooooooh, I like the way you think, Welt. Let's go see what we can do..."

---

The setting is Karakura Town, Japan. On the outskirts of the city, atop a different mountain that actually held Sekai's tomb at the base, the three brothers joined each other and prepared themselves for an attack. The previous missions were intended to weaken the Arrancar, and progression within those missions would either negatively or positively affect the status of this one. Their goal was now to go after the World of the Living's inhabitants, doing whatever it took to get the attention of the Soul King. Unfortunately for them, the Soul King wasn't ready to descend down upon the land just yet because he knew what awaited him if he did.

The goal is to defeat the brothers. Though their powers are weakened, they still exist. They can use their special abilities without any limits and are capable of strong, god-like attacks. These will grow less powerful over time so long as the results of the easy-medium level thread are positive. If they are not positive, the three Arrancar brothers will grow more powerful and even more impossible to defeat. It'll take an interesting type of teamwork to come out successful, but the story must be told. These are the Gods of Origin, and the Soul King has specifically reached out to his many spiritual children in an attempt to gain their service.

[Teresa]

Karakura once again, the best place for sustenance in the human world. Teresa had attacked here multiple times since becoming a Hollow and while it usually led to her devouring quite a few humans it always had the best defense with the exception of Soul Society. Teresa had no issue with the occasional Shinigami coming to stop her, nor a human with some power since either of them would taste amazing not to mention make useful servants. Whether or not anyone showed up to stop her didn’t matter though as this town was filled with humans. Just a normal one was tasty enough, especially after being cooped up in Las Noches for the last couple of months.

The Segunda, Maria had kept her locked up in Hueco Mundo since their meeting, a fact that while she dreaded was accepted. She’d given her word to serve beneath the Segunda and that was one thing she wouldn’t devour, she didn’t really understand why her word meant anything to her, but it just did. Thankfully though Teresa was able to convince Maria, that coming to Karakura was something she deserved. Feasting on other Hollows wasn’t a pleasant thing for Teresa. The taste alone of just a single bite, it was like shoving rotten intestines down her gullet while doing her best to keep it down.

Getting free rein for at least one hunt in the human world. Teresa, now standing at the top of a tall building which had at least six stories in height, gazed down to see all the humans moving about like rats. Normally she’d have done her best to stay hidden while utilizing her servants to bring her food right to her. Today though, right now felt different. She’d gone long enough forcing herself to eat figuratively waste. Flexing her golden reiatsu she sent out a signal to anyone with reiatsu. A hollow is here come and stop it!

[Satoshi Fuuko]

"She's cute, right?" 

Fuuko let the words hang in the air as she scraped a match along the bottom of her sandal and then used the flame to light up a cigarette that dangled between her lips. They had just come through a Senkaimon to the world of the living. There was some activity going on and the Yonbantai was sent just in case there needed to be some clean up and patching up. Perhaps, in Fuuko's case, if there needed to be additional ass-kicking available. She didn't know what the operations were, exactly, and didn't really care, but if her and Iroka were being sent, then it seemed to be kind of important, even if there seemed to be mostly low level shinigami handling whatever situations needed handling. 

The Senkaimon they were sent through was operated by a rather new member Juusanbantai. Her name was Hanako Nozawa and she was Fuuko's "student." However that ended up happening, Fuuko was proud of the last. She had figured that Hanako would end up in the Nibantai, but it never seemed to fit with Fuuko. Squad 13, however, seemed to be right where Hanako needed to be. Fuuko was glad. She was also glad she got to see Hanako's first operation of a Senkaimon gate. She felt enough pride to show her off to Iroka, Fuuko's sworn sister. 

"She's my student. Ain't that a trip?" Fuuko mused with a grin between puffs of her cigarette. "Do you know what's goin on here? I'd hate to ruin all the kiddy's fun." She added. She remembered the last real time she saw Hanako. Fuuko had been locked away in SS and couldn't come to her rescue. It was still  eating her up. "I just wish we had more to do than stand around. I-" 

Fuuko's eyes suddenly widened and she lifted her head and stopped mid sentence. "No way. No fuckin way!" She blurted out and suddenly her own reiatsu flared. That had to have been why they were called. She felt  it. The reiatatsu of a hollow she was intimately familiar with. The last time they had met, Fuuko barely managed to drive her back to Hueco Mundo. Fuuko had hoped that in her weakened. state the Hollow known as Teresa would have been food and fodder for a hungry, ambitious hollow, but, clearly,  that was not the case. 

"You fucking bitch!" 

Fuuko didn't wait for Iroka to ask, nor did she explain. She shot off as fast as she could without using Shunpo into the direction of the hollow. She followed the reiatsu siganture until she saw the creature. as voluptuous as she was grotesque, the fire in Fuuko's belly welled up at the sight and she pushed herself, trying to get Teresa's attention immediately. She didn't grab her zanpakutou. Instead she just charged and flew at Teresa. 

"OI!" She shouted and lowered her shoulder as she crashed into the hollow and slammed Teresa and herself into the ground. With Fuuko ontop and staring into that jagged toothd maw, she hissed  and dug her fingers into Teresa's shoulder. "Miss me, Bitch!?" She snapped as she leered at the Hollow. 

"I didn't think you'd be stupid enough to slither out from Hueco Mundo again!" Fuuko barked. One hand reached for her zanpakutou while she tried to keep Teresa on her back, pinned and straddled with her hips and one hand. "What's the fuckin matter, Shinigami got yer tongue!?" Fuuko said with a cruel grin, remembering how she had nearly obliterated Teresa's throat last time. 

[Colina Conejita]

Colina had arrived around the same time as Teresa, following after them while suppressing their spiritual signature with concentration but keeping silent in their long white robe. She currently had her white cloth mask up over the bridge of their nose and besides their stark black hair and glowing purple eyes looked more like a chess piece of ivory with a set of matching bunny ears sprouting from her forehead. Her white robes also exposed her belly, extremely pale white skin and a large round hole where her belly button should have been if she were human. Upon Colina's back was her oversized Chakram, attached to her robes by two thick, white leather straps that wrapped around to her front and buttoned with silver on her chest.

Hidden beneath her cloth mask was the number three now burned black into their right cheek, big and bold yet now hidden from sight. Colina was the new Trecera Espada and would act accordingly if the moment called for it. It came with new responsibilities that were thrust upon her, but responsibilities that Colina both wanted and was ready to accept. Her current assignment was to watch over something precious, an escort of some sorts so the next generation of hollow might sprout into something more from the gardens of conflict.

Colina had accepted this mission specifically as a favor to Maria, to look over her little protege should trouble come looking for her. Colina remained hidden however as she didn’t want to spoil Teresa’s mood after being let loose after so long having been trapped in the sands of Hueco Mundo. But too soon trouble had come looking for Teresa, and Colina could sense it coming from a female Shinigami of considerable strength. And the speed she moved at would be enviable of the average being, but Colina sniffed at it. She could take this one.

As Fuuko took action and attempted to overtake Teresa by surprise, Colina stepped forward from the shadow, allowing the mask over her spiritual pressure to fall and reveal her. If Fuuko continued to attempt crashing into Teresa she would find herself being met with Colina’s full force, the bottom of Colina’s foot slamming into Fuuko’s shoulder and being launched away from Teresa. The direction would throw Fuuko in front of Teresa and after the kick, Colina would spin about in the air and grip her hand onto Teresa's right shoulder. She would finish it by contorting her body to land directly to the right and slightly behind Teresa and standing with composure.

“You shouldn’t just announce yourself. Find a target first, then take them out, dummy. Doesn’t Maria teach you anything?”

Colina’s words would be filled with a malice as she spoke to Teresa, condemnation dripping off her words like a poison meant to sharpen Teresa's resolve rather than make her senses dull. Colina would then sniff at the air and look around before narrowing her eyes. She could sense something out here with them, something of power that mirrored her own, smelling suspiciously of Arrancar in nature. Now might not be the time for squabbling, but Colina had her orders. She was going to protect the sprouting so it could grow into a fantastic produce. One Colina might even enjoy as a meal if she kept up her flaunting behavior.

Skills

Battle Analysis: 2
This is used to analyze combat specifics. When someone has this Skill, they can quickly evaluate what is happening and respond accordingly. This includes gauging what kind of technique was used and how to best avoid it logically. A 1 means you're standard. A 2 means you have a good grasp on battle analytics and can hold your own exceptionally well. A 3 means you are familiar with virtually any technique. A 4 means you are familiar with every technique and can come up with unique ways to avoid them, so long as your Stats allow for it.

Lack of Fear: 2
Your character can either ignore fear or does not feel it at all depending on how many points are given. A 1 means you can ignore things that are mildly scary, like thriller movies. A 2 means you may be able to resist fear, but if you are exposed to it repeatedly, it may overwhelm you. A 3 means you can completely ignore any fears, including your own. A 4 means you feel no fear at all, no matter what. This can be used in tandem with Light Aura to make you unquestionably immune.

Street Fighting: 2
This works in the same way that Weapons and Martial Arts do. It does not need any specification since it is its own subject. The same point values are applied. This kind of fighting is strictly improvisation and has basic, untrained movements.

Stealth: 2
You are good at being stealthy, escaping, disappearing, and remaining unnoticed so long as you are not Released or charging Reiatsu. A 1 means you're quiet and can sneak around well. A 2 means you can blend into shadows and crowds with ease and disappear without a trace. A 3 means you can be virtually unnoticeable and seemingly materialize out of the shadows. A 4 means you are completely unfindable unless you Release or charge Reiatsu. You cannot use Stealth randomly. You must be able to hide within reason. If those with high ES wish to detect you, they must have the appropriate Skills needed to do so.

Acting: 2
You can act or lie very well. You can fool others either through pretending to be something or someone else, or even alter your tone. A liar can be convincing. A 1 means they are on par with a movie actor. A 2 means their lies are highly believable. A 3 means they are almost completely believable without much issue or doubt. Anyone can see through someone with up to a 3 in Acting so long as they have a 4 in Analyzing. If you have a 4 in Acting, a 4 in Analyzing will not help you unless you have at least a 1 in Focused Eye.

Strength of Will: 2
This is used to resist giving in. You can overpower illusions, drugs, and overcome aversions to pain, hardship, trauma, and fear. You can basically just scream and power through to reach your goal. If you lose your will, the Willpower technique will no longer grant you eternal life. A 1 allows you to resist temptations. A 2 means you can resist drug and alcohol effects and overcome mild pain. A 3 means you can resist torture and power through pain. You will never age or lose your will. A 4 means you become somewhat of a mindless person who ignores everything around them if it means accomplishing their goal, but you will suffer from your wounds afterwards.

Damage Recovery: 2
You will be able to recover from pain, wounds, and damage more easily. You heal faster and regain composure more quickly, and your overall resilience is higher. A 1 means you can recover from minor damages faster. A 2 means you can recover from mild damage, such as gashes and stab wounds, more quickly. A 3 means you can heal from deep cuts and gashes more quickly and recover from minor bodily trauma. A 4 means you can recover from extreme damages (not including limb loss) quickly and push through the pain.

Acrobatics: 3
You are inherently good at acrobatics. You pick up the motions and are good at learning them quickly. You can also apply them to many different situations. A 1 means you have the skills of an athlete. A 2 means you have the skills of an effortless Olympian. A 3 means you can use these skills in battle rather diversely. A 4 means you can use them in battle without trouble and can intertwine these skills with your fighting abilities.

[Munemasa Iroka]

Iroka studied Hanako for a moment before turning to Fuuko and nodding enthusiastically. "She sure is!" the ginger said, breaking into a grin. "And I love the shade of her hair. Say, Oni-chan, how did you get a student? Did you like write to the Academy to ship you new talent or something? It does sound cool to have a student, though now that I think about it, I don't know if I should have one. The terrible things we'll get up to...."

Whatever the case, acquiring students aside, Iroka wondered why two Division 4 Shinigami were being sent to the mortal world. The higher ups had simply said that there was some sort of possible clean up duty to be done, and so the two were going to Earth for... janitor duty? Ah well, perks of the job. Even though the Yonbantai was still disregarded by a number of other divisions, the performance of one's duty to the best of their abilities was what mattered most. Even if it was glorified sanitation work.

Fuuko suddenly stopped, seemingly sensing something. And then she swore, and took off, not even waiting to hear if Iroka knew why they were out here on Earth. Iroka sighed, then gave a thumbs up to Hanako, and took off after her friend. Some things never changed. Fuuko would always go rushing off, and Iroka would always follow after. The Red Oni and Blue Oni charging into battle. The carrot top would not have it any other way.

Iroka came just in time to see Fuuko charge a Hollow. A Hollow! Was that the reason they had been sent here? Wouldn't it have been more reasonable to send the 11th or some other knucklehead division folk? Well, if there was a Hollow here, then things would probably devolve very quickly. It did seem Fuuko knew who this Hollow was, and certainly had a bone to pick with her. The blonde seemed to be able to handle the Hollow well...

...that was, until a newcomer arrived, aiming a kick at the Shinigami. Iroka had to admit, this one had some very impressive speed. As she had attacked Fuuko, she was certainly an enemy. Still, the carrot top did not want to immediately jump into battle. If the newcomer had attacked with a weapon, or tried to draw blood, that would have been a different matter, and Iroka would have gone in guns blazing. As things stood, it seemed she had just wanted to push the blonde away from the other Hollow.

This new one was a strange one. Very long jet black hair, but with white eyebrows and lashes. She did look rather young, like a teen. Iroka did not like having to go up against kids, even if they were on the cusp of adulthood. Also, she had rabbit ears. Why? "Uh, Bucatini Bunny, it's not very polite to go trying to kick people. And what is wrong with your stomach? Did hunger cave it out?" Her tone was not insulting, merely curious.

SKILLS: 20/21

Mental:
Analyzing: 2
Analyzing - This is how well your character can analyze. This is a strategic Skill used for the analysis of events, history, circumstance, and certain aspects of combat. Your character can moderately or quickly analyze things they see, information they read, and data. They notice patterns and decipher codes and puzzles. Motives and people can also be analyzed, as well as opponents' weaknesses. At 1 point, you're considered slightly above average. A 2 means you're highly observant and have an easier time reading others. A 3 means you're similar to a strategist for the army and can read people like an open book. A 4 is comparable to Sherlock Holmes.

Strength of Will: 3
Strength of Will - This is used to resist giving in. You can overpower illusions, drugs, and overcome aversions to pain, hardship, trauma, and fear. You can basically just scream and power through to reach your goal. If you lose your will, the Willpower technique will no longer grant you eternal life. A 1 allows you to resist temptations. A 2 means you can resist drug and alcohol effects and overcome mild pain. A 3 means you can resist torture and power through pain. You will never age or lose your will. A 4 means you become somewhat of a mindless person who ignores everything around them if it means accomplishing their goal, but you will suffer from your wounds afterwards.

Battle:
Hakuda- Shintenken: 2
Shintenken is a fighting style which utilizes graceful but explosive motions to attack and overwhelm an opponent. It rarely utilizes strikes with a completely closed fist, opting instead for chops, palms and slaps, as well all sorts of kicks. It is strongly rooted in the Chinese martial arts Piguaquan and Bājíquán. What makes Shintenken most dangerous is its incorporation of reiatsu into its attacks. While nothing near the level of Shunkō, releasing reiatsu just at the moment of impact allows Shintenken practitioners to improve their prowess on the battlefield, making their strikes much more dangerous. It is better suited for fighters who do not focus on physical strength to deal damage to their foes.

Zanjutsu- Shinryugetsu Battōjutsu: 3
Shinryugetsu Battōjutsu is a style of battōjutsu that was designed for swordsmen who were lacking in the physical department. It focuses on awareness, response to sudden attacks, and precise cuts aimed at weak spots, with the practitioner often using showy movements and acrobatics to distract their opponent from the cuts. Another thing about Shinryugetsu Battōjutsu is that the scabbard of the sword is also used frequently, often to parry, or perform distractions (as said practitioners with their lacking strength will not be able to deal much damage with the scabbard). The weapons used in Shinryugetsu Battōjutsu are a katana and its scabbard.

Battle Analysis: 3
Battle Analysis - This is used to analyze combat specifics. When someone has this Skill, they can quickly evaluate what is happening and respond accordingly. This includes gauging what kind of technique was used and how to best avoid it logically. A 1 means you're standard. A 2 means you have a good grasp on battle analytics and can hold your own exceptionally well. A 3 means you are familiar with virtually any technique. A 4 means you are familiar with every technique and can come up with unique ways to avoid them, so long as your Stats allow for it.

Pain Tolerance: 2
Pain Tolerance - This is how well you tolerate pain. It only applies to physical pain, not emotional. A 1 means you can tolerate it enough to keep fighting despite minor wounds like cuts or second degree burns. A 2 means third degree burns and basic slash wounds can be fought through. A 3 means you can ignore the pain of many attacks completely, including strong ones. You can even resist severe torture methods, but extreme ones will break this Skill. A 4 means you can power through any kind of pain so long as they are not extreme torture methods. This does not mean the wounds don't affect you, but simply that the pain they come with can be ignored.

Body:
Mental Incantation: 3
Mental Incantation - This skill allows the user to cast Kidō and other similar techniques with mental incantations rather than vocal. A 1 means they can cast the Kidō wordlessly. A 2 means they can cast Kidō wordlessly and say its incantation mentally for increased effectiveness. A 3 means they can wordlessly cast Kidō and vocally say the incantation afterwards to increase its strength in mid-combat. They can also speak two incantations simultaneously by weaving them together to release two Kidō like the Nijū Eishō style. A 4 means they can do everything mentioned before, but now they can mentally weave two incantations together rather than speak it.

Utility:
Crafting/Forging: 2
Crafting/Forging - You are good at building, creating, fixing, and crafting things. A 1 means you can smelt weapons or craft armor. A 2 means you can make structures. A 3 means you can engineer machines. A 4 means you can create anything so long as you have the materials and means to do so. This Skill is a requirement for crafting custom weapons.

[Shizuka Sanamizu ✮]

"Brother, I quite like the bunny one!" Mundo stated, brushing his hand through his brunette hair, his lightly-tanned skin making him appear as though he enjoyed a holiday in South America.

"Mundo, your flamboyance needs to be controlled." Sekai's appearance contrasted that of Mundo's since his skin was more alabaster.

"Indeed. Though, you both must not fight each other. We are guests here, somewhat." Welt paused and considered his words. "Well, you two are. This is my domain."

Masking their Reiatsu so perfectly that it would be impossible for of the four to notice them, the three brothers maintained a distance in a covert location above the clouds. They watched carefully as each person seemed to have their own strange problems with another, and it entertained them. Mundo had been making comments about wanting to play with Colina, though Welt stopped him before he could make a move. Patience was everything, and if this was all the Soul King could muster, then maybe it would be easier than they thought to defeat the pathetic group their eldest brother assembled.

It seemed these four needed a bit more time to become better-acquainted, and that was perfectly fine with the four brothers. In fact, they welcomed it. For as long as they could be entertained by the conflicts of the current residents of each of the four worlds, they'd allow whatever interactions came about this meeting. Seeing as no other threat was upon them at the moment, this gave the brothers a chance to learn a thing or two about their opponents. Already, they found out that Colina was somehow above Teresa, and Teresa was simply a Hollow. This irked Welt, especially. Had he been at full power the way he was eons ago, he would have taken control of Teresa's mind without an issue.

Fuuko and Iroka appeared to know each other, as well. They were close, which intrigued Sekai. He appreciated the home that the Shinigami had created within his domain, and it did mildly pain him to be forced into combat with two of the residents, though that guilt left his conscious very quickly. He was the Soul Society's creator, but he had no relation to any of the Shinigami or other beings that resided within. He was an observer ever since his awakening, and he wanted to keep it that way outside of taking back what belonged to him. He was the god of that realm, after all. He could lead it once again.

Mundo, on the other hand, was disappointed. Two of the people within this group were originally from his domain of Hueco Mundo. He'd heard rumors of a Shinigami King who resided within and was desperate to meet him, though neither of these two looked like Sonken Kouhai. Neither had the same kind of Reiatsu as Kouhai, either. With a groan, he did his best to listen to their bickering, hoping some good information would come of it. So far, he learned Maria was a leader of some kind, and that was basically it. Perhaps giving them a chance to speak without any incoming thread would be a benefit to learning more about who they were.



OOC: The official posting order is Teresa, Fuuko, Colina, Iroka, then the Canon Master. This is the order we will go off of in the event of skipped posting turns. Each participant has a week since the previous participant's post to make their own post before they get skipped. The Canon Master counts as a participant in this case.

Take one more round to talk to each other! Don't want to rush into combat with these guys, after all. How you perform does depend on the easy-medium participants and their results.

[Teresa]

Just like all the previous times, flexing her reiatsu out like a beacon of light was like leaving sugar out for ants. It didn’t take more than a couple of seconds for Teresa to pick up on the feeling of something coming right for her. Thankfully in that time she was already prepared, it didn’t take her long now to focus internally on which soul within her body to pick and then spit from her nightmare inducing mouth. A small black glob of reiatsu several feet away to her left that landed beside the stairwell entrance on the roof.

“Pull down any threat.”

Teresa whispered to the soul of the rooftop beneath her feet. It was for this reason that when Fuuko did appear in view Teresa’s face twisted with her large smile. This was the Shinigami she’d fought months ago. The one that’d stepped up when she’d been feasting in the Rukongai. Blood powers that would make an acceptable addition to her collection of servants. She’d been a Shinigami that actually pushed through quite a bit although her charred flesh had smiled intoxicating after being trapped inside a cero orb.

Teresa had no issue standing the way that she was at the moment now with her arms crossed in front of her abdomen in a relaxed manner. She could at any moment unleash a barrage of bala or a cero, something she knew could hurt this Shinigami. Even if she didn’t though, based on the last encounter she wasn’t strong enough to handle a blow from Club’s zanpakuto. That’s why the feminine Hollow awaited the body check of her recurring enemy. Just as she accepted it though came someone she hadn’t expected now wanted so close.

One of the Espada, a newly appointed one at that. Teresa had seen her briefly in Las Noches and knew of her ranking, but beyond that didn’t care or have knowledge. Why she was suddenly right next to her though caused a fury of flames to burn up in her soul. “So she believes I will break my word! After suffering for the last month straight eating nothing but filth! Struggling to choke down mouthful after mouthful of spoiled flesh. HOW DARE SHE!” This was an insult to have someone watch over her like some infant that was going to fall from the top of a chair and die on the floor.

“Maria hasn’t taught me much of anything. You just kept the prey from the trap. There’s more than one way to hunt rabbit.”

Teresa had made it very clear to Maria that while she served her due to her word and Lord Kouhai the same, that did not apply to the others in Las Noches. Tersa was an individual of pride and power, the only reason she was alive at the moment was due to her word being like iron. One of the few weaknesses that she didn’t want to break when accepting herself as a Hollow. Lying was something untrustworthy, something without power, an action that spat in the face of anyone with real strength. If trickery was enough to claim a position then it wasn’t held onto by someone mighty.

Colina was the only one on the rooftop that possessed the talent to sense reiatsu well enough to pick up on Club. Although he was an imposing figure of muscle at a height of 6’6” at the moment he was crouched slightly to stay hidden while suppressing his reiatsu. Sneak attacks weren’t his style nor his forte but it would have made things all the more fun to Teresa. Smacking the Shinigami off her with his Kanabo. “I wouldn’t have expected you to come running at me after last time. It’s a shame your skin healed, you looked much more tasty roasted.”

[Satoshi Fuuko]

Just as Fuuko was about to get into it with Teresa, she felt the boot against her side. Enough to disrupt her and remover her from the hollow, she was quick to make assumptions as she turned to see who did it. "Gotta sick yer goons on me!? Can't just fight me woman to ... whatever the fuck you are!" Fuko then paused and eyed Colina. She smirked at the Espada. 

'Tch. Who the fuck are you!?" Fuuko barked and glanced back at Teresa. "I didn't think you had actual  friends. Just yer little dollies. Guess you realized they ain't shit against me, huh?" She then added, to retort to Teresa's remark, "I'm surprised your throat grew back enough to choke anything down." 

Fuuko hopped over to Iroka and pulled out her zanpakutou. "We need to be careful. That one summons shit and she put me in a fuckin cage when we fough! Don't know who the other one is, but she feels powerful too." As Fuuko gripped her zanpakutou, she began to look around. If Teresa was really here with someone, then all bets were off as far as Fuuko was concerned. Was there some kind of Hollow ambush being prepared? Some kind of HUeco Mundo invasion that she hadn't heard about? Was that the reason there seemed to be so much activity? She couldn't say for sure, but if Teresa was around, Fuuko didn't need to know much more. 

What she did know was that as much as she would have loved to slug it out with Teresa, this wasn't the time to play. Colina was at least  on their level from what Fuuko could tell, but even if she wasn't, something didn't sit right with Fuuko. She hadn't even noticed  Colina until the woman kicked her in the stomach.

[Colina Conejita]

Colina stood with a glaze of disinterest over her eyes when she looked at the shinigami present. They weren’t much to her and not the primary reason for her to come here. Her body language would speak that in volumes, the way she stood with her side to them and facing more towards Teresa and the mountain in the distance. Her eyes fell harshly on the one known as Club, staring the summon down with eyes like daggers and silently telling them not to make a movement. The time wasn’t right and if they wanted to strike a blow then they should wait. With that having been sent in their direction by way of body language and eyes, Colina turned now to the approaching shinigami and lifting her right hand.

“Stop approaching if you value your lives. I didn’t come here to fight but if you don’t give me a choice I’ll gladly take two zanpakutou to Lord Kouhai’s chamber. Why are you here?”

As Colina spoke, her purple iridescent eyes looked over the two of them. The chief amongst them, Colina guessed, was the one she had kicked away from her ally. They weren’t especially bright, but they had some strength in them. Colina could tell that much from them not flying away from her strike, but Colina knew they could probably take them to the ground and destroy them. The other however was completely unknown to her, a mystery like most shinigami before Colina fought them. She would need to be wary of them if it came to blows. And so, with some humility, Colina gave a quick and short bow while lowering her hand towards the two shinigami.

“I am Tercera Espada, Colina. Today, I do not think myself your enemy, little budlings. I’d rather see you grow before plucking you from the vine for tasting. Also, nothing is wrong with my stomach.” As Colina said the last bit to Iroka, she had a pouty look in her eyes and if her face were not covered in white cloth, they might see her lips pouting. The large golden and iridescent green metallic chakram on her back glimmered in the light of the moon above as she began walking towards them, aiming to put herself between Teresa and the two shinigami and possibly block a battle from beginning too soon.

Skills

Battle Analysis: 2
This is used to analyze combat specifics. When someone has this Skill, they can quickly evaluate what is happening and respond accordingly. This includes gauging what kind of technique was used and how to best avoid it logically. A 1 means you're standard. A 2 means you have a good grasp on battle analytics and can hold your own exceptionally well. A 3 means you are familiar with virtually any technique. A 4 means you are familiar with every technique and can come up with unique ways to avoid them, so long as your Stats allow for it.

Lack of Fear: 2
Your character can either ignore fear or does not feel it at all depending on how many points are given. A 1 means you can ignore things that are mildly scary, like thriller movies. A 2 means you may be able to resist fear, but if you are exposed to it repeatedly, it may overwhelm you. A 3 means you can completely ignore any fears, including your own. A 4 means you feel no fear at all, no matter what. This can be used in tandem with Light Aura to make you unquestionably immune.

Street Fighting: 2
This works in the same way that Weapons and Martial Arts do. It does not need any specification since it is its own subject. The same point values are applied. This kind of fighting is strictly improvisation and has basic, untrained movements.

Stealth: 2
You are good at being stealthy, escaping, disappearing, and remaining unnoticed so long as you are not Released or charging Reiatsu. A 1 means you're quiet and can sneak around well. A 2 means you can blend into shadows and crowds with ease and disappear without a trace. A 3 means you can be virtually unnoticeable and seemingly materialize out of the shadows. A 4 means you are completely unfindable unless you Release or charge Reiatsu. You cannot use Stealth randomly. You must be able to hide within reason. If those with high ES wish to detect you, they must have the appropriate Skills needed to do so.

Acting: 2
You can act or lie very well. You can fool others either through pretending to be something or someone else, or even alter your tone. A liar can be convincing. A 1 means they are on par with a movie actor. A 2 means their lies are highly believable. A 3 means they are almost completely believable without much issue or doubt. Anyone can see through someone with up to a 3 in Acting so long as they have a 4 in Analyzing. If you have a 4 in Acting, a 4 in Analyzing will not help you unless you have at least a 1 in Focused Eye.

Strength of Will: 2
This is used to resist giving in. You can overpower illusions, drugs, and overcome aversions to pain, hardship, trauma, and fear. You can basically just scream and power through to reach your goal. If you lose your will, the Willpower technique will no longer grant you eternal life. A 1 allows you to resist temptations. A 2 means you can resist drug and alcohol effects and overcome mild pain. A 3 means you can resist torture and power through pain. You will never age or lose your will. A 4 means you become somewhat of a mindless person who ignores everything around them if it means accomplishing their goal, but you will suffer from your wounds afterwards.

Damage Recovery: 2
You will be able to recover from pain, wounds, and damage more easily. You heal faster and regain composure more quickly, and your overall resilience is higher. A 1 means you can recover from minor damages faster. A 2 means you can recover from mild damage, such as gashes and stab wounds, more quickly. A 3 means you can heal from deep cuts and gashes more quickly and recover from minor bodily trauma. A 4 means you can recover from extreme damages (not including limb loss) quickly and push through the pain.

Acrobatics: 3
You are inherently good at acrobatics. You pick up the motions and are good at learning them quickly. You can also apply them to many different situations. A 1 means you have the skills of an athlete. A 2 means you have the skills of an effortless Olympian. A 3 means you can use these skills in battle rather diversely. A 4 means you can use them in battle without trouble and can intertwine these skills with your fighting abilities.
