Shikai Overall Ability:
The overall ability of Kimiko's shikai like stated previously revolves around the wolves that she manifests. When she activates her shikai Kimiko is able to decide if either a pup or adult is manifested. If she manifests a pup she does have the ability to accelerate its grow and age to the point that it becomes an adult version. (50 Reiatsu) The pups aren't meant for combat that's simply a fact and this is because the stats that the pups have are 50. There are two acceptations however that is the main reason why the pups are useful. The pups have instincts/senses at 400. This makes them incredible trackers making sure that Kimiko can follow those she is assigned to target.
Moving on to the details revolving around the adult version of the wolf spirits. The adult wolves have 650 in both physical stats and 250 in Instincts/Senses. This effectively makes them a valuable assistant in the midst of battle as they have incredible physical capabilities that sometimes rival Kimiko. Yet again however this wolf can be used to survey an area as another set of eyes. One aspect that aids their ability to gain intelligence is the fact that all adult wolves possess a skill of 2 in Stealth. This effectively makes it almost impossible to spot them.
The true power of this overall ability however is the applications Kimiko can use to aid her wolves and the passive ability the wolf possess from the moment of manifestation. The wolf that is manifested (including pups) have the ability to regrow boy parts instantaneously. However, this only becomes active if a section is actually severed from the body. This means that a normal cut or bruise will not heal at any speed higher than normal. The strength behind the ability though is that any section that is severed regrows an entirely new body.
If a wolf has a leg/paw removed from its body the wolf that lost said paw will regain a new one instantly. The removed limb however almost immediately begins to rapidly grow an entirely new body effectively doubling the amount of spirits Kimiko has released from her zanpakuto. It takes a single post for a section to grow a new body however Kimiko can flow her reiatsu through the section to enhance the speed causing it to regrow completely inside a single post. (100 Reiatsu) Now this ability effectively makes cutting the wolves only an asset to Kimiko for no matter how many times they are cut apart, how small they are cut into the wolves will multiple based on the number of pieces separate from the body even if the body itself has been reduced to mere pieces. Well then how do you beat the wolves? Simple the ability only works when a section is separated that means that the majority of offensive attacks effect them like anything else.
To make it perfectly clear this means that the majority of kido will effect the wolves like anything else. Certain kido such as Black Coffin however due to the effects of that kido being lacerations and cutting into the victim will result in the ability of the wolf countering the kido. Physical blows of brute strength effect them like anything else. So internal and external damage are still possible as long as no part of the body is separated. Elemental damage effects them just like anything else fire being the most effective simply due to the fact that they're wolves and fur catches on fire. So while they are powerful if dealt with in any manner other than swordsmanship the wolves have no ability.
Another aspect that these wolves are able to execute that makes this shikai so strange is that when the numbers have increased they can share a single body. This can be done through physical contact with one another and it appears to onlookers as if the bodies of the wolves meld together leaving only a single left. The indicator that this has taken place however is that the number of spirits residing in a single body is reflected on the number of heads on the body. There is a certain limit to the amount of spirits in a single body which just so happens to be 10. When in this type of state an additional passive boost is gained. For each additional head that a single wolf body has the strength stat is increased by 25%. The wolves do possess the ability to immediately split apart once again. This is limited however due to the fact that when they do they rush from the body itself a body appearing behind the head that splits apart.
Lastly the major hindrance of only releasing shikai is that Kimiko can't sustain manifesting more then 10 of her spirits at once. However, when the wolves fuse together they are only counted as a single wolf meaning that she can continue to summon them as long as the bodies don't exceed 10. This does mean however that if 11 spirits have been released that at least 1 of the spirits must be sharing a body with another wolf. If there are 10 bodies manifested at this point then the ability to replicate won't active however the regeneration of sections remains.
Bankai Overall Ability:
Kimiko's bankai is one that matches the theme of her shikai by bringing forth the inner world of her zanpakuto. While her shikai manifests the hundreds of zanpakuto spirits into a physical form that are linked with her the bankai like many would assume is much more versatile and dangerous. Kimiko need only speak the call out phase for bankai and either her zanpakuto blade or any/all wolves that are active will instantly vanish into dark smoke. In that moment though everything becomes engulfed in darkness.
The reasoning is that Kimiko's bankai is in fact a Reality Marble. The reality that is enacted around her is that of her zanpakuto's inner world. The large nearly pitch black forest suddenly just seems to become reality in a single moment. Everything that was in the area of a mile in all directions simply is no longer there replaced by the forest. The bankai itself is the forest down to the actual new ground and the tall pine trees that reach five hundred feet in height.
The actual purpose of this bankai is the fact that Kimiko is an assassin and extremely dangerous individual in close combat. The forest being her bankai has the durability of her highest offensive stat meaning that the ground and trees are nearly indestructible to attacks. Natural weaknesses to such things as fire are not a threat as long as they don't exceed the durability meaning that the trees won't catch on fire and react much like stone or metal.
One additional thing about this reality marble is that it actually is the home of the zanpakuto spirits and as such when active all prior stated abilities are doubled. This means that when activated two wolves manifest themselves next to Kimiko. The wolves abilities are much more lethal in the forest being able to replicate at double the rate as stated in shikai. All of the shikai techniques are still employable and any that enable Kimiko to replicate a wolf are the replication doubled. The only ability that doesn't receive a boost is the actual stats of the wolves which remain the same. However, the conjoining of the wolves gains the same boost as shikai only this time speed. This means that while Bankai is active conjoined wolves again 25% strength/speed per wolf that is conjoined maxing at 10. Wolf stats in Bankai are 800 in both physical and 450 in Senses/Instincts.
When bankai is active not only are the wolves senses linked to Kimiko yet the entire forest. Well how can the forest be linked to Kimiko some might ask the answer is that while in Bankai Kimiko gains a sixth sense. This sense is like a homing beacon on any foreign source of reiatsu/movement. Meaning that anyone who is within her forest she has the ability to sense through the forest itself be it the ground or the trees. This makes it impossible for Kimiko to not know the whereabouts of every single individuals location within her own reality. It should be stated also that while bankai is active Kimiko's pupils remain slanted as stated in shikai along with the other changes yet her canine teeth grow even larger and thick black circles appear around her eyes.
Shikai Techniques
Technique Name: Inshō-tekina asaruto
Description: This technique is one favored by the wolf spirits of Kimiko's zanpakuto it possesses two different variations that have slightly different implications and effects. Though there are two variations both of them must begin with a leap forward in the chosen direction.
In the first variation of this technique the wolf spins sideways at a speed that causes anyone that speeds the technique to compare it with a black drill. This variation is useful for striking foes with furious bashing blows whenever contact is made with the wolf. It also has a slight piercing like function that allows the wolf to tunnel into the ground or through anything that is lower than the Strength stat of the wolf. This makes it useful in crushing defensive techniques of walls. (Mainly causes blunt force damage.)
The second variation of the technique is when a wolf spin forward at the same speed as the first variation. This one however causes the wolf to be compared to that of a buzz-saw and is useful in causing slash like wounds when contact is delivered. The opposite to the first variation this one has a cutting like function that leaves deep carvings on anything that is touched that is lower than the Strength of the wolf. This makes it very useful is cutting through weaponry and foes alike. (Mainly causes cutting damage.)
How to use: The technique must start by leaping forward if for any reason that is not possible this technique can't be used.
Drawback: Restraints such as kido are useful in eliminating the possibility of this technique being utilized. Cost 150 per use. It's possible to cancel this technique out by hitting the wolf in the process with a distance type attack.
Technique Name: Ekuserushifuto
Description: This technique is one that allows Kimiko to activate the ability of her zanpakuto without the requirement of body separation. This means that once the method of use is complete and the reiatsu has been utilized the wolf that Kimiko selects will immediately grow an individual head. In doing so this technique allows Kimiko to manifest an additional spirit from her zanpakuto by using the already manifested spirit as a medium.
How to use: In order to activate this technique Kimiko is required to concentrate on the individual spirit while making a hand sign with either hand. The hand sign consists of her index and middle fingers together held upward while the other two are curved like a hook. The thumb is also held strait like the index and middle fingers.
Drawback: This technique is only usable once per post and is only usable on an uninjured spirit. This means that any wolf that has suffered physical damage such as internal can't have this technique used on them. Any wolf that's physical body has been healed or replicated/regenerated back to full capability can have this technique utilized upon them. Cost 100 Reiatsu.
Technique Name: Entiti no kōkan
Description: This technique is one that allows a wolf to withdraw from its physical body into a new one. The method to do this is by leaping from the open mouth. When this is done it appears that the wolf is truly leaping from its own flesh which in fact is actually occurring. This techniques essential due to the fact that it grants the wolf that uses this technique to instant regain lost limbs or any damage they had received prior. This technique can be used however to release an additional wolf spirit from the being of one already manifested.
How to use: The wolf simply thinks about it happening and imagines leaping forward.
Drawback: It should be noted that the biggest drawback of this technique is that using this technique causes Kimiko's muscles to spasm uncontrollably resulting in incredible pain until the following post. Cost 150 for the first effect then 300 for the second effect.
Shikai Overall Ability:
The overall ability of Kimiko's shikai like stated previously revolves around the wolves that she manifests. When she activates her shikai Kimiko is able to decide if either a pup or adult is manifested. If she manifests a pup she does have the ability to accelerate its grow and age to the point that it becomes an adult version. (50 Reiatsu) The pups aren't meant for combat that's simply a fact and this is because the stats that the pups have are 50. There are two acceptations however that is the main reason why the pups are useful. The pups have instincts/senses at 400. This makes them incredible trackers making sure that Kimiko can follow those she is assigned to target.
Moving on to the details revolving around the adult version of the wolf spirits. The adult wolves have 650 in both physical stats and 250 in Instincts/Senses. This effectively makes them a valuable assistant in the midst of battle as they have incredible physical capabilities that sometimes rival Kimiko. Yet again however this wolf can be used to survey an area as another set of eyes. One aspect that aids their ability to gain intelligence is the fact that all adult wolves possess a skill of 2 in Stealth. This effectively makes it almost impossible to spot them.

Elemental damage effects them just like anything else fire being the most effective simply due to the fact that they're wolves and fur catches on fire. So while they are powerful if dealt with in any manner other than swordsmanship the wolves have no ability.
There is an aspect to the wolves that seems to be unique to them that more than likely stems from the practical usages of them as assassins. While active Kimiko's reiatsu isn't spiked like it normally would be for a Shinigami. Her reiatsu remains the same as it would be calm meaning that she can still suppress it enabling her to hide from any individual that can sense reiatsu. However, the spiked reiatsu that normally would be sensible to any individual is still present and is felt from one Haunzu. The original Haunzu that is summoned is the one that can always be sensed while others cannot in the same manner as Kimiko. If the original Haunzu should be eliminate then the next one in the line of succession becomes sensible.
Another aspect that these wolves are able to execute that makes this shikai so strange is that when the numbers have increased they can share a single body. This can be done through physical contact with one another and it appears to onlookers as if the bodies of the wolves meld together leaving only a single left. The indicator that this has taken place however is that the number of spirits residing in a single body is reflected on the number of heads on the body. There is a certain limit to the amount of spirits in a single body which just so happens to be 10. When in this type of state an additional passive boost is gained. For each additional head that a single wolf body has the strength stat is increased by 25%. The wolves do possess the ability to immediately split apart once again. This is limited however due to the fact that when they do they rush from the body itself a body appearing behind the head that splits apart.
Lastly the major hindrance of only releasing shikai is that Kimiko can't sustain manifesting more then 10 of her spirits at once. However, when the wolves fuse together they are only counted as a single wolf meaning that she can continue to summon them as long as the bodies don't exceed 10. This does mean however that if 11 spirits have been released that at least 1 of the spirits must be sharing a body with another wolf. If there are 10 bodies manifested at this point then the ability to replicate won't active however the regeneration of sections remains.
Bankai Overall Ability:
Kimiko's Bankai is one that matches the theme of her Shikai by bringing forth the inner world of her zanpakuto. While her Shikai manifests the hundreds of zanpakuto spirits into a physical form that are linked with her the Bankai like many would assume is much more versatile and dangerous. Kimiko need only speak the call out phase for Bankai and either her zanpakuto blade or any/all wolves that are active will instantly vanish into dark smoke. In that moment though everything becomes engulfed in darkness.
The reasoning is that Kimiko's Bankai is in fact a Reality Marble. The reality that is enacted around her is that of her zanpakuto's inner world. The large nearly pitch black forest suddenly just seems to become reality in a single moment. Everything that was in the area of a mile in all directions simply is no longer there replaced by the forest. The Bankai itself is the forest down to the actual new ground and the tall pine trees that reach five hundred feet in height.
The actual purpose of this Bankai is the fact that Kimiko is an assassin and extremely dangerous individual in close combat. The forest being her Bankai has the durability of her highest offensive stat meaning that the ground and trees are nearly indestructible to attacks. Natural weaknesses to such things as fire are not a threat as long as they don't exceed the durability meaning that the trees won't catch on fire and react much like stone or metal. It should also be noted that it always seems to be night in her forest and that individuals with less than 150 Senses can't see anything. Those with 150 Senses can see up to ten feet away from them clearly. For every 50 in Senses after that point the individual can see another 10 feet until 400 is reached at which point the individual is unaffected by the darkness of night.
As the forest is her Bankai her reiatsu can be sensed throughout the entire forest which while at first may sound like an advantage to foes it's actually quite the opposite. Much like how in Shikai one of the Haunzu take on the spiked reiatsu sensation that a shinigami normally would when in realize now the forest as a whole gives off that sensation. What this means is that neither Kimiko nor any of the Haunzu can be sensed. In fact unless the forest is eliminated Kimiko can't be sensed while she remains inside of her Bankai simply because her reiatsu signature can't reach a height higher than the forest meaning that it becomes cloaked by it. Individuals that possess 400 Energy Sensory or higher are able to still sense her reiatsu when she uses a technique though, but not during any other instance.
One additional thing about this reality marble is that it actually is the home of the zanpakuto spirits and as such when active all prior stated abilities are doubled. This means that when activated two wolves manifest themselves next to Kimiko. The wolves abilities are much more lethal in the forest being able to replicate at double the rate as stated in Shikai. All of the Shikai techniques are still employable and any that enable Kimiko to replicate a wolf are the replication doubled. However, the conjoining of the wolves gains the same boost as Shikai only this time speed. This means that while Bankai is active conjoined wolves again 25% strength/speed per wolf that is conjoined maxing at 10. Wolf stats in Bankai are 800 in both physical and 450 in Senses/Instincts.
Kimiko though can still use the pup spirits like she could use in Shikai. In Bankai though the pups gain a few new properties that they didn't have during Shikai the first of which is a change to their stats. Pups now have the following stats; 100 in both physicals follows by 800 in Instincts/Senses. The pups also have developed a small amount now possessing a unique ability granted through scent. Each pup has the ability to smell the emotions of anyone. Just like the Adult counterpart though the pups can now fuse together in the same manner. The only difference is that the pups don't receive increases to their physical stats, but instead their senses are sharpened even further at a rate of 25% per additional wolf. A wolf pup body though can only sustain 5 spirits instead of the normal 10.
When Bankai is active not only are the wolves senses linked to Kimiko yet the entire forest. Well how can the forest be linked to Kimiko some might ask the answer is that while in Bankai Kimiko gains a sixth sense. This sense is like a homing beacon on any foreign source of reiatsu/movement. Meaning that anyone who is within her forest she has the ability to sense through the forest itself be it the ground or the trees. This makes it impossible for Kimiko to not know the whereabouts of every single individuals location within her own reality. It should be stated also that while Bankai is active Kimiko's pupils remain slanted as stated in Shikai along with the other changes yet her canine teeth grow even larger and thick black circles appear around her eyes.
Shikai Techniques
Technique Name: Daitai Serufu
Description: Daitai is a technique that enables Kimiko to actually change the location of her soul. How this works specifically is Kimiko must form a hand sign which consists of one hand with it's index and middle fingers held straight while the ring and pinky fingers are curved over and the thumb is pressed tightly against the index finger with the top half curved. Once this hand sign is formed Kimiko can switch the positions of her soul which includes not only herself, but Haunzu as well. This works the same as teleportation meaning that any wolf can instantaneously switch places with another one or Kimiko herself. Kimiko also has the choice of changing the locations of both pieces of her soul at once. Instead of the pieces changing places with one another they meet in the middle of their already established locations.
How to use: In order to activate this technique Kimiko is required to concentrate on the individual spirit while making a hand sign with either hand. The hand sign consists of her index and middle fingers together held upward while the other two are curved like a hook. The thumb is also held strait like the index and middle fingers.
Drawback: Kimiko must form the hand sign in order to activate this technique. This technique can only be used once per post. While Kimiko physically doesn't move this technique does require a fair amount of stamina in order to active. Costs 150 reiatsu. The last variation of this technique can't be used if the location between her souls is already filled with something else. Meaning that it can't be used if a mountain of wall was occupying the location directly between them.
Technique Name: Entiti no Kōkan
Description: This technique is one that allows a wolf to withdraw from its physical body into a new one. The method to do this is by leaping from the open mouth. When this is done it appears that Haunzu is truly leaping from its own flesh which in fact is actually occurring. This techniques is essential because it grants Haunzu the ability to instantly regain lost limbs or heal from any damage he has received prior.
This technique can be used however to release an additional Haunzu spirit from the being of one already manifested. Kimiko can trigger this technique by forming a simple hand sign that consists of her index finger crossed with her middle finger while focusing on the general area of the Haunzu. This enables Kimiko to actually aid Haunzu from a distance something not possible with any of her other techniques.
How to use: The wolf simply thinks about it happening and imagines leaping forward.
Drawback: Cost 150 for the first effect then 300 for the second effect.
Bankai Techniques
Technique Name: Kakoma Rete
Description: The first technique that Kimiko gains from her Bankai is one that allows the Shihoin to merge with it. This in all actuality causes Kimiko to become every part of the Bankai and then reappear from any part immediately afterwards. This allows Kimiko to teleport through the forest to any area and emerge from any part be it a tree or the ground. When Kimiko activates this technique her body appears to sink into the ground or tree, it's the opposite when she reemerges. Kimiko's fusion with her Bankai is instantaneous.
Since achieving Bankai though through training Kimiko has learned that this technique has more variety than originally determined. Not only is she capable of fusing with her Bankai, but so is Haunzu in the same manner as Kimiko moving through the Bankai by fusion together with it and then emerging from a new location. Lastly through both of their efforts they've recently stumbled upon a type of brief and partial variation of this technique. By fusing with the Bankai's form upon contact both Kimiko and Haunzu can accomplish a type of phasing effect where they don't actually stay fused and travel to a new location within the Bankai, but simply move through that single part. This effect only works on the trees.
Lastly Kimiko has realized that she can partially fuse with her Bankai's form which enables her to fuse and sent specific parts of her body to different locations of it. This enables her to by contact fuse for example an arm with her Bankai. That arm can then appear out of any part of her Bankai with Kimiko still in control over it as if it were still attached to her body.
How to use: Kimiko focuses her reiatsu and relaxes every muscle of her body.
Drawback: This technique has one unique weakness that one might not realize, but is in fact potentially far to devastating then the use of the technique. When Kimiko merges with her Bankai before reappearing any damage that actually manages to befall the Bankai is inflicted upon Kimiko herself. This means that while merged if a tree or the ground was damaged that damage would carry to Kimiko herself when she reemerges. This drawback also works against Haunzu (All of them) that currently have been manifested meaning that if one of them is traveling through the Bankai and it's injured not only will that body receive damage, but all of them will receive the same wounds. Using the traveling ability of this technique costs 200 reiatsu and takes a rather large amount of stamina. The Brief type of fusion costs 100 reiatsu per use while taking around the same amount of stamina as a standard shunpo. The drawback of the partial fusion of this technique is that Kimiko's body parts once they appear from another part of the Bankai can receive damage just as easily as normal. Not only that, but Kimiko must remain in constant contact with the Bankai in the same spot. If she pulls whichever part of her body away from her Bankai then this version ends so effectively this type leaves her vulnerable to attacks and costs 100 reiatsu while also placing stress on whichever section of her body she uses and draining stamina from that specific section of her body at a dangerous pace. This technique regardless of which version is used can only be used twice in a post.
Technique Name: Hageshī Mori
Description: This technique is more linked to the fundamental ability of Kimiko's zanpakuto manifesting her inner world enabling it to aid her in battle. This technique like Kakoma Rete works alongside the Forest and not Haunzu. By concentrating on a specific part of her Bankai Kimiko can through both thought and motion control that section of her Bankai. Each section of the Bankai is able to be controlled with the exception of air due to it not actually coming from her inner world. Tree branches, pine needles and the ground are all things that Kimiko can control through the usage of this technique. The speed and force that Kimiko can control her Bankai though is determined by how much effort she puts into it. Meaning that if she simply controls it mentally everything will move with speed/force at a static value of 800. By comparison if she uses motion such as her hands the Bankai will have the an increase in both the speed/force it possesses reaching 1200.
How to use: Kimiko concentrates on specific parts of her Bankai while mentally envisioning the course of action.
Drawback: Costs 100 reiatsu per action. Kimiko is unable to use this technique while another zanpakuto technique is in use. This technique consumes a large amount of stamina to actually execute especially overtime and continuously meaning that Kimiko must choose when to use it wisely. Along with requiring a large amount of stamina the usage of this technique also places a heavy mental strain on Kimiko who has to connect with her Bankai in order to active this technique.
Technique Name: Kegawa No Kodomo
Description: The most befitting of Kimiko's Bankai techniques. This technique is one that allows Kimiko to merge with her zanpakuto spirits. This occurs when a wolf makes contact with Kimiko. Instantly upon merging a pelt will appear over Kimiko's clothing matching the pelts of her wolves. The wolf head will be worn over Kimiko's head with the fangs actually still intact above her forehead. This technique grants Kimiko the same passive ability that the wolves possess with one another.
The technique grants Kimiko the stat boosting equivalent of her wolves own stats. This means that for every wolf that has merged with her she gains 25% of their Dominate stats to her own. The only other thing that should take notice is that the more wolves that have merged with Kimiko the more feral and beastly her own appears becomes as well as the pelt she wears growing in size until it acts like a hooded cape.
How to use: Kimiko lets out a type of sound it can be a whistle, growl, howl. When this happens the wolves rush to her.
Drawback: Kimiko can only fuse with 5 wolves total while the technique costs 300 reiatsu. The major drawback is simply that Kimiko's body can't handle the incredible stress that this technique places on her for very long. Once this technique is activated Kimiko can only fight for a total of 7 posts. These posts can't be regained through rest or it takes days of relaxation and recovery.
Technique Name: Kazoku Surōtā
Description: The most powerful technique of the Bankai. This technique is one that Kimiko never wishes to use due t the power and unfairness of it. When this technique is used the forest of the Bankai immediately disappears vanishing. However, instead of the reality that it had replaced when activated a barren land scape that spans the same area of the forest is left. The power of this technique is that every single zanpakuto spirit has been summoned to fight on behalf of the Queen.
As soon as the forest vanishes replaced by the barren land one thousand of the wolves appears surrounding the area. All of these wolves are in the adult form and have all the same abilities as normal with nothing else gaining from the technique. This technique allows Kimiko to utilize the full destructive power of her Bankai while forcing her to sacrifice the 6th sense gained from the forest. Any of the techniques that require the wolves can still be used unless they serve the purpose of releasing an addition spirit. Kakoma Rete no longer can be used due to there no longer being a forest.
How to use: Kimiko lets out a piercing whistle.
Drawback: This technique due to its immense offensive power sacrifices the 6th sense passive granted to Kimiko. This technique also places a time limit remaining on the Bankai that will force it to seal even if the normal time limit is not reached. (2 posts) Cost 500 reiatsu. The hydra like ability of the wolves no longer exists in this technique due to all of the zanpakuto spirits already being released.

IC Reasoning: During the battle against her Uncle Hiroshi Kimiko and her zanpakuto was inflicted by the fear toxin that Hiroshi employs. While Kimiko herself was able to sever the effects of the toxin by sealing her zanpakuto that was the most that it had done for her. After her eventually lose at his hands Kimiko returned to Soul Society in order to strengthen herself once again. However, upon activating Jizen Kimiko found out that the effects of the fear toxin hadn't just effected the Haunzu that had been present against Hiroshi yet instead all of them. Kimiko spent days in constant meditation searching, locating, and calming down all of her spirits until they were once again themselves. However, one thing stayed corrupted in her inner world that was much more difficult to fix. The forest itself was corrupted by the fear causing the trees to become twisted and deformed. Only through her constant presence were the trees able to be willed back into their normal state. From this experience Kimiko has come to understand her zanpakuto on a new level. Okami has disappeared once again and after trying so long to regain the stealth force by which her family created Kimiko has left the Division that she tried so hard to get back on its feet and become the new Captain of the Stealth Force.

Shikai Overall Ability:
The overall ability of Kimiko's shikai like stated previously revolves around the wolves that she manifests. When she activates her shikai Kimiko is able to decide if either a pup or adult is manifested. If she manifests a pup she does have the ability to accelerate its grow and age to the point that it becomes an adult version. (50 Reiatsu) The pups aren't meant for combat that's simply a fact and this is because the stats that the pups have are 50. There are two acceptations however that is the main reason why the pups are useful. The pups have instincts/senses at 400. This makes them incredible trackers making sure that Kimiko can follow those she is assigned to target.
Moving on to the details revolving around the adult version of the wolf spirits. The adult wolves have 650 in both physical stats and 250 in Instincts/Senses. This effectively makes them a valuable assistant in the midst of battle as they have incredible physical capabilities that sometimes rival Kimiko. Yet again however this wolf can be used to survey an area as another set of eyes. One aspect that aids their ability to gain intelligence is the fact that all adult wolves possess a skill of 2 in Stealth. This effectively makes it almost impossible to spot them.
The true power of this overall ability however is the applications Kimiko can use to aid her wolves and the passive ability the wolf possess from the moment of manifestation. The wolf that is manifested (including pups) have the ability to regrow boy parts instantaneously. However, this only becomes active if a section is actually severed from the body. This means that a normal cut or bruise will not heal at any speed higher than normal. The strength behind the ability though is that any section that is severed regrows an entirely new body.
If a wolf has a leg/paw removed from its body the wolf that lost said paw will regain a new one instantly. The removed limb however almost immediately begins to rapidly grow an entirely new body effectively doubling the amount of spirits Kimiko has released from her zanpakuto. It takes a single post for a section to grow a new body however Kimiko can flow her reiatsu through the section to enhance the speed causing it to regrow completely inside a single post. (100 Reiatsu) Now this ability effectively makes cutting the wolves only an asset to Kimiko for no matter how many times they are cut apart, how small they are cut into the wolves will multiple based on the number of pieces separate from the body even if the body itself has been reduced to mere pieces. Well then how do you beat the wolves? Simple the ability only works when a section is separated that means that the majority of offensive attacks effect them like anything else.
To make it perfectly clear this means that the majority of kido will effect the wolves like anything else. Certain kido such as Black Coffin however due to the effects of that kido being lacerations and cutting into the victim will result in the ability of the wolf countering the kido. Physical blows of brute strength effect them like anything else. So internal and external damage are still possible as long as no part of the body is separated. Elemental damage effects them just like anything else fire being the most effective simply due to the fact that they're wolves and fur catches on fire. So while they are powerful if dealt with in any manner other than swordsmanship the wolves have no ability.
Another aspect that these wolves are able to execute that makes this shikai so strange is that when the numbers have increased they can share a single body. This can be done through physical contact with one another and it appears to onlookers as if the bodies of the wolves meld together leaving only a single left. The indicator that this has taken place however is that the number of spirits residing in a single body is reflected on the number of heads on the body. There is a certain limit to the amount of spirits in a single body which just so happens to be 10. When in this type of state an additional passive boost is gained. For each additional head that a single wolf body has the strength stat is increased by 25%. The wolves do possess the ability to immediately split apart once again. This is limited however due to the fact that when they do they rush from the body itself a body appearing behind the head that splits apart.
Lastly the major hindrance of only releasing shikai is that Kimiko can't sustain manifesting more then 10 of her spirits at once. However, when the wolves fuse together they are only counted as a single wolf meaning that she can continue to summon them as long as the bodies don't exceed 10. This does mean however that if 11 spirits have been released that at least 1 of the spirits must be sharing a body with another wolf. If there are 10 bodies manifested at this point then the ability to replicate won't active however the regeneration of sections remains.
Bankai Overall Ability:
Kimiko's bankai is one that matches the theme of her shikai by bringing forth the inner world of her zanpakuto. While her shikai manifests the hundreds of zanpakuto spirits into a physical form that are linked with her the bankai like many would assume is much more versatile and dangerous. Kimiko need only speak the call out phase for bankai and either her zanpakuto blade or any/all wolves that are active will instantly vanish into dark smoke. In that moment though everything becomes engulfed in darkness.
The reasoning is that Kimiko's bankai is in fact a Reality Marble. The reality that is enacted around her is that of her zanpakuto's inner world. The large nearly pitch black forest suddenly just seems to become reality in a single moment. Everything that was in the area of a mile in all directions simply is no longer there replaced by the forest. The bankai itself is the forest down to the actual new ground and the tall pine trees that reach five hundred feet in height.
The actual purpose of this bankai is the fact that Kimiko is an assassin and extremely dangerous individual in close combat. The forest being her bankai has the durability of her highest offensive stat meaning that the ground and trees are nearly indestructible to attacks. Natural weaknesses to such things as fire are not a threat as long as they don't exceed the durability meaning that the trees won't catch on fire and react much like stone or metal.
One additional thing about this reality marble is that it actually is the home of the zanpakuto spirits and as such when active all prior stated abilities are doubled. This means that when activated two wolves manifest themselves next to Kimiko. The wolves abilities are much more lethal in the forest being able to replicate at double the rate as stated in shikai. All of the shikai techniques are still employable and any that enable Kimiko to replicate a wolf are the replication doubled. The only ability that doesn't receive a boost is the actual stats of the wolves which remain the same. However, the conjoining of the wolves gains the same boost as shikai only this time speed. This means that while Bankai is active conjoined wolves again 25% strength/speed per wolf that is conjoined maxing at 10. Wolf stats in Bankai are 800 in both physical and 450 in Senses/Instincts.
When bankai is active not only are the wolves senses linked to Kimiko yet the entire forest. Well how can the forest be linked to Kimiko some might ask the answer is that while in Bankai Kimiko gains a sixth sense. This sense is like a homing beacon on any foreign source of reiatsu/movement. Meaning that anyone who is within her forest she has the ability to sense through the forest itself be it the ground or the trees. This makes it impossible for Kimiko to not know the whereabouts of every single individuals location within her own reality. It should be stated also that while bankai is active Kimiko's pupils remain slanted as stated in shikai along with the other changes yet her canine teeth grow even larger and thick black circles appear around her eyes.
Shikai Techniques
Technique Name: Inshō-tekina asaruto
Description: This technique is one favored by the wolf spirits of Kimiko's zanpakuto it possesses two different variations that have slightly different implications and effects. Though there are two variations both of them must begin with a leap forward in the chosen direction.
In the first variation of this technique the wolf spins sideways at a speed that causes anyone that speeds the technique to compare it with a black drill. This variation is useful for striking foes with furious bashing blows whenever contact is made with the wolf. It also has a slight piercing like function that allows the wolf to tunnel into the ground or through anything that is lower than the Strength stat of the wolf. This makes it useful in crushing defensive techniques of walls. (Mainly causes blunt force damage.)
The second variation of the technique is when a wolf spin forward at the same speed as the first variation. This one however causes the wolf to be compared to that of a buzz-saw and is useful in causing slash like wounds when contact is delivered. The opposite to the first variation this one has a cutting like function that leaves deep carvings on anything that is touched that is lower than the Strength of the wolf. This makes it very useful is cutting through weaponry and foes alike. (Mainly causes cutting damage.)
How to use: The technique must start by leaping forward if for any reason that is not possible this technique can't be used.
Drawback: Restraints such as kido are useful in eliminating the possibility of this technique being utilized. Cost 150 per use. It's possible to cancel this technique out by hitting the wolf in the process with a distance type attack.
Technique Name: Ekuserushifuto
Description: This technique is one that allows Kimiko to activate the ability of her zanpakuto without the requirement of body separation. This means that once the method of use is complete and the reiatsu has been utilized the wolf that Kimiko selects will immediately grow an individual head. In doing so this technique allows Kimiko to manifest an additional spirit from her zanpakuto by using the already manifested spirit as a medium.
How to use: In order to activate this technique Kimiko is required to concentrate on the individual spirit while making a hand sign with either hand. The hand sign consists of her index and middle fingers together held upward while the other two are curved like a hook. The thumb is also held strait like the index and middle fingers.
Drawback: This technique is only usable once per post and is only usable on an uninjured spirit. This means that any wolf that has suffered physical damage such as internal can't have this technique used on them. Any wolf that's physical body has been healed or replicated/regenerated back to full capability can have this technique utilized upon them. Cost 100 Reiatsu.
Technique Name: Entiti no kōkan
Description: This technique is one that allows a wolf to withdraw from its physical body into a new one. The method to do this is by leaping from the open mouth. When this is done it appears that the wolf is truly leaping from its own flesh which in fact is actually occurring. This techniques essential due to the fact that it grants the wolf that uses this technique to instant regain lost limbs or any damage they had received prior. This technique can be used however to release an additional wolf spirit from the being of one already manifested.
How to use: The wolf simply thinks about it happening and imagines leaping forward.
Drawback: It should be noted that the biggest drawback of this technique is that using this technique causes Kimiko's muscles to spasm uncontrollably resulting in incredible pain until the following post. Cost 150 for the first effect then 300 for the second effect.
New Powers:
Shikai Overall Ability:
The overall ability of Kimiko's shikai like stated previously revolves around the wolves that she manifests. When she activates her shikai Kimiko is able to decide if either a pup or adult is manifested.

Moving on to the details revolving around the adult version of the wolf spirits. The adult wolves have 650 in both physical stats and 250 in Instincts/Senses. This effectively makes them a valuable assistant in the midst of battle as they have incredible physical capabilities that sometimes rival Kimiko. Yet again however this wolf can be used to survey an area as another set of eyes.

Elemental damage effects them just like anything else fire being the most effective simply due to the fact that they're wolves and fur catches on fire. So while they are powerful if dealt with in any manner other than swordsmanship the wolves have no ability.
There is an aspect to the wolves that seems to be unique to them that more than likely stems from the practical usages of them as assassins. While active Kimiko's reiatsu isn't spiked like it normally would be for a Shinigami. Her reiatsu remains the same as it would be calm meaning that she can still suppress it enabling her to hide from any individual that can sense reiatsu. However, the spiked reiatsu that normally would be sensible to any individual is still present and is felt from one Haunzu. The original Haunzu that is summoned is the one that can always be sensed while others cannot in the same manner as Kimiko. If the original Haunzu should be eliminate then the next one in the line of succession becomes sensible.
Another aspect that these wolves are able to execute that makes this shikai so strange is that when the numbers have increased they can share a single body. This can be done through physical contact with one another and it appears to onlookers as if the bodies of the wolves meld together leaving only a single left. The indicator that this has taken place however is that the number of spirits residing in a single body is reflected on the number of heads on the body.

For each additional head that a single wolf body has the strength stat is increased by 25%. The wolves do possess the ability to immediately split apart once again. This is limited however due to the fact that when they do they rush from the body itself a body appearing behind the head that splits apart.
Lastly the major hindrance of only releasing shikai is that Kimiko can't sustain manifesting more then 10 of her spirits at once. However, when the wolves fuse together they are only counted as a single wolf meaning that she can continue to summon them as long as the bodies don't exceed 10. This does mean however that if 11 spirits have been released that at least 1 of the spirits must be sharing a body with another wolf. If there are 10 bodies manifested at this point then the ability to replicate won't active however the regeneration of sections remains.
Bankai Overall Ability:
Kimiko's Bankai is one that matches the theme of her Shikai by bringing forth the inner world of her zanpakuto. While her Shikai manifests the hundreds of zanpakuto spirits into a physical form that are linked with her the Bankai like many would assume is much more versatile and dangerous. Kimiko need only speak the call out phase for Bankai and either her zanpakuto blade or any/all wolves that are active will instantly vanish into dark smoke. In that moment though everything becomes engulfed in darkness.
The reasoning is that Kimiko's Bankai is in fact a Reality Marble. The reality that is enacted around her is that of her zanpakuto's inner world. The large nearly pitch black forest suddenly just seems to become reality in a single moment. Everything that was in the area of a mile in all directions simply is no longer there replaced by the forest. The Bankai itself is the forest down to the actual new ground and the tall pine trees that reach five hundred feet in height.
The actual purpose of this Bankai is the fact that Kimiko is an assassin and extremely dangerous individual in close combat. The forest being her Bankai has the durability of her highest offensive stat meaning that the ground and trees are nearly indestructible to attacks. Natural weaknesses to such things as fire are not a threat as long as they don't exceed the durability meaning that the trees won't catch on fire and react much like stone or metal. It should also be noted that it always seems to be night in her forest and that individuals with less than 150 Senses can't see anything. Those with 150 Senses can see up to ten feet away from them clearly. For every 50 in Senses after that point the individual can see another 10 feet until 400 is reached at which point the individual is unaffected by the darkness of night.
As the forest is her Bankai her reiatsu can be sensed throughout the entire forest which while at first may sound like an advantage to foes it's actually quite the opposite. Much like how in Shikai one of the Haunzu take on the spiked reiatsu sensation that a shinigami normally would when in realize now the forest as a whole gives off that sensation. What this means is that neither Kimiko nor any of the Haunzu can be sensed. In fact unless the forest is eliminated Kimiko can't be sensed while she remains inside of her Bankai simply because her reiatsu signature can't reach a height higher than the forest meaning that it becomes cloaked by it. Individuals that possess 400 Energy Sensory or higher are able to still sense her reiatsu when she uses a technique though, but not during any other instance.
One additional thing about this reality marble is that it actually is the home of the zanpakuto spirits and as such when active all prior stated abilities are doubled. This means that when activated two wolves manifest themselves next to Kimiko. The wolves abilities are much more lethal in the forest being able to replicate at double the rate as stated in Shikai. All of the Shikai techniques are still employable and any that enable Kimiko to replicate a wolf are the replication doubled. However, the conjoining of the wolves gains the same boost as Shikai only this time speed. This means that while Bankai is active conjoined wolves again 25% strength/speed per wolf that is conjoined maxing at 10. Wolf stats in Bankai are 800 in both physical and 450 in Senses/Instincts.
Kimiko though can still use the pup spirits like she could use in Shikai. In Bankai though the pups gain a few new properties that they didn't have during Shikai the first of which is a change to their stats. Pups now have the following stats; 100 in both physicals follows by 800 in Instincts/Senses. The pups also have developed a small amount now possessing a unique ability granted through scent. Each pup has the ability to smell the emotions of anyone. Just like the Adult counterpart though the pups can now fuse together in the same manner. The only difference is that the pups don't receive increases to their physical stats, but instead their senses are sharpened even further at a rate of 25% per additional wolf. A wolf pup body though can only sustain 5 spirits instead of the normal 10.
When Bankai is active not only are the wolves senses linked to Kimiko yet the entire forest. Well how can the forest be linked to Kimiko some might ask the answer is that while in Bankai Kimiko gains a sixth sense. This sense is like a homing beacon on any foreign source of reiatsu/movement. Meaning that anyone who is within her forest she has the ability to sense through the forest itself be it the ground or the trees. This makes it impossible for Kimiko to not know the whereabouts of every single individuals location within her own reality. It should be stated also that while Bankai is active Kimiko's pupils remain slanted as stated in Shikai along with the other changes yet her canine teeth grow even larger and thick black circles appear around her eyes.
Shikai Techniques
Technique Name: Daitai Serufu
Description: Daitai is a technique that enables Kimiko to actually change the location of her soul. How this works specifically is Kimiko must form a hand sign which consists of one hand with it's index and middle fingers held straight while the ring and pinky fingers are curved over and the thumb is pressed tightly against the index finger with the top half curved. Once this hand sign is formed Kimiko can switch the positions of her soul which includes not only herself, but Haunzu as well. This works the same as teleportation meaning that any wolf can instantaneously switch places with another one or Kimiko herself. Kimiko also has the choice of changing the locations of both pieces of her soul at once. Instead of the pieces changing places with one another they meet in the middle of their already established locations.
How to use: In order to activate this technique Kimiko is required to concentrate on the individual spirit while making a hand sign with either hand. The hand sign consists of her index and middle fingers together held upward while the other two are curved like a hook. The thumb is also held strait like the index and middle fingers.
Drawback: Kimiko must form the hand sign in order to activate this technique. This technique can only be used once per post. While Kimiko physically doesn't move this technique does require a fair amount of stamina in order to active. Costs 150 reiatsu. The last variation of this technique can't be used if the location between her souls is already filled with something else. Meaning that it can't be used if a mountain of wall was occupying the location directly between them.
Technique Name: Entiti no Kōkan
Description: This technique is one that allows a wolf to withdraw from its physical body into a new one. The method to do this is by leaping from the open mouth. When this is done it appears that Haunzu is truly leaping from its own flesh which in fact is actually occurring. This techniques is essential because it grants Haunzu the ability to instantly regain lost limbs or heal from any damage he has received prior.
This technique can be used however to release an additional Haunzu spirit from the being of one already manifested. Kimiko can trigger this technique by forming a simple hand sign that consists of her index finger crossed with her middle finger while focusing on the general area of the Haunzu. This enables Kimiko to actually aid Haunzu from a distance something not possible with any of her other techniques.
How to use: The wolf simply thinks about it happening and imagines leaping forward.
Drawback: Cost 150 for the first effect then 300 for the second effect.
Bankai Techniques
Technique Name: Kakoma Rete
Description: The first technique that Kimiko gains from her Bankai is one that allows the Shihoin to merge with it. This in all actuality causes Kimiko to become every part of the Bankai and then reappear from any part immediately afterwards. This allows Kimiko to teleport through the forest to any area and emerge from any part be it a tree or the ground. When Kimiko activates this technique her body appears to sink into the ground or tree, it's the opposite when she reemerges. Kimiko's fusion with her Bankai is instantaneous.
Since achieving Bankai though through training Kimiko has learned that this technique has more variety than originally determined. Not only is she capable of fusing with her Bankai, but so is Haunzu in the same manner as Kimiko moving through the Bankai by fusion together with it and then emerging from a new location. Lastly through both of their efforts they've recently stumbled upon a type of brief and partial variation of this technique. By fusing with the Bankai's form upon contact both Kimiko and Haunzu can accomplish a type of phasing effect where they don't actually stay fused and travel to a new location within the Bankai, but simply move through that single part. This effect only works on the trees.
Lastly Kimiko has realized that she can partially fuse with her Bankai's form which enables her to fuse and sent specific parts of her body to different locations of it. This enables her to by contact fuse for example an arm with her Bankai. That arm can then appear out of any part of her Bankai with Kimiko still in control over it as if it were still attached to her body.
How to use: Kimiko focuses her reiatsu and relaxes every muscle of her body.
Drawback: This technique has one unique weakness that one might not realize, but is in fact potentially far to devastating then the use of the technique. When Kimiko merges with her Bankai before reappearing any damage that actually manages to befall the Bankai is inflicted upon Kimiko herself. This means that while merged if a tree or the ground was damaged that damage would carry to Kimiko herself when she reemerges. This drawback also works against Haunzu (All of them) that currently have been manifested meaning that if one of them is traveling through the Bankai and it's injured not only will that body receive damage, but all of them will receive the same wounds. Using the traveling ability of this technique costs 200 reiatsu and takes a rather large amount of stamina. The Brief type of fusion costs 100 reiatsu per use while taking around the same amount of stamina as a standard shunpo. The drawback of the partial fusion of this technique is that Kimiko's body parts once they appear from another part of the Bankai can receive damage just as easily as normal. Not only that, but Kimiko must remain in constant contact with the Bankai in the same spot. If she pulls whichever part of her body away from her Bankai then this version ends so effectively this type leaves her vulnerable to attacks and costs 100 reiatsu while also placing stress on whichever section of her body she uses and draining stamina from that specific section of her body at a dangerous pace. This technique regardless of which version is used can only be used twice in a post.
Technique Name: Hageshī Mori
Description: This technique is more linked to the fundamental ability of Kimiko's zanpakuto manifesting her inner world enabling it to aid her in battle. This technique like Kakoma Rete works alongside the Forest and not Haunzu. By concentrating on a specific part of her Bankai Kimiko can through both thought and motion control that section of her Bankai. Each section of the Bankai is able to be controlled with the exception of air due to it not actually coming from her inner world. Tree branches, pine needles and the ground are all things that Kimiko can control through the usage of this technique. The speed and force that Kimiko can control her Bankai though is determined by how much effort she puts into it. Meaning that if she simply controls it mentally everything will move with speed/force at a static value of 800. By comparison if she uses motion such as her hands the Bankai will have the an increase in both the speed/force it possesses reaching 1200.
How to use: Kimiko concentrates on specific parts of her Bankai while mentally envisioning the course of action.
Drawback: Costs 100 reiatsu per action. Kimiko is unable to use this technique while another zanpakuto technique is in use. This technique consumes a large amount of stamina to actually execute especially overtime and continuously meaning that Kimiko must choose when to use it wisely. Along with requiring a large amount of stamina the usage of this technique also places a heavy mental strain on Kimiko who has to connect with her Bankai in order to active this technique.
Technique Name: Kegawa No Kodomo
Description: The most befitting of Kimiko's Bankai techniques. This technique is one that allows Kimiko to merge with her zanpakuto spirits. This occurs when a wolf makes contact with Kimiko. Instantly upon merging a pelt will appear over Kimiko's clothing matching the pelts of her wolves. The wolf head will be worn over Kimiko's head with the fangs actually still intact above her forehead. This technique grants Kimiko the same passive ability that the wolves possess with one another.
The technique grants Kimiko the stat boosting equivalent of her wolves own stats. This means that for every wolf that has merged with her she gains 25% of their Dominate stats to her own. The only other thing that should take notice is that the more wolves that have merged with Kimiko the more feral and beastly her own appears becomes as well as the pelt she wears growing in size until it acts like a hooded cape.
How to use: Kimiko lets out a type of sound it can be a whistle, growl, howl. When this happens the wolves rush to her.
Drawback: Kimiko can only fuse with 5 wolves total while the technique costs 300 reiatsu. The major drawback is simply that Kimiko's body can't handle the incredible stress that this technique places on her for very long. Once this technique is activated Kimiko can only fight for a total of 7 posts. These posts can't be regained through rest or it takes days of relaxation and recovery.
Technique Name: Kazoku Surōtā
Description: The most powerful technique of the Bankai. This technique is one that Kimiko never wishes to use due t the power and unfairness of it. When this technique is used the forest of the Bankai immediately disappears vanishing. However, instead of the reality that it had replaced when activated a barren land scape that spans the same area of the forest is left. The power of this technique is that every single zanpakuto spirit has been summoned to fight on behalf of the Queen.
As soon as the forest vanishes replaced by the barren land one thousand of the wolves appears surrounding the area. All of these wolves are in the adult form and have all the same abilities as normal with nothing else gaining from the technique. This technique allows Kimiko to utilize the full destructive power of her Bankai while forcing her to sacrifice the 6th sense gained from the forest. Any of the techniques that require the wolves can still be used unless they serve the purpose of releasing an addition spirit. Kakoma Rete no longer can be used due to there no longer being a forest.
How to use: Kimiko lets out a piercing whistle.
Drawback: This technique due to its immense offensive power sacrifices the 6th sense passive granted to Kimiko. This technique also places a time limit remaining on the Bankai that will force it to seal even if the normal time limit is not reached. (2 posts) Cost 500 reiatsu. The hydra like ability of the wolves no longer exists in this technique due to all of the zanpakuto spirits already being released.

IC Reasoning: During the battle against her Uncle Hiroshi Kimiko and her zanpakuto was inflicted by the fear toxin that Hiroshi employs. While Kimiko herself was able to sever the effects of the toxin by sealing her zanpakuto that was the most that it had done for her. After her eventually lose at his hands Kimiko returned to Soul Society in order to strengthen herself once again. However, upon activating Jizen Kimiko found out that the effects of the fear toxin hadn't just effected the Haunzu that had been present against Hiroshi yet instead all of them. Kimiko spent days in constant meditation searching, locating, and calming down all of her spirits until they were once again themselves. However, one thing stayed corrupted in her inner world that was much more difficult to fix. The forest itself was corrupted by the fear causing the trees to become twisted and deformed. Only through her constant presence were the trees able to be willed back into their normal state. From this experience Kimiko has come to understand her zanpakuto on a new level. Okami has disappeared once again and after trying so long to regain the stealth force by which her family created Kimiko has left the Division that she tried so hard to get back on its feet and become the new Captain of the Stealth Force.
