THE SHINIGAMI APPLICATION
Name: Okami Shiba
Age: You'll never get a straight answer, but somewhere around 800.
Gender: Male
Personality: Okami is typically relaxed and easy-going, quickly forgiving those who wrong him. This is not because he is too trusting, however. He is an amazing judge of character, and can often tell when someone is lying without even monitoring for changes in reiatsu. While he does enjoy a good fight, Okami is not one to waste time extending them. He dispatches his enemies quickly and hates long, drawn out battles. He has much respect for most of his opponents, and honors their valor before killing them so that they know he harbors no ill will. When a loved one is at risk or killed, however, Okami is utterly merciless and sadistic. While fighting against someone on an equal level, he will often escalate his reiatsu as the fight dictates so that he doesn’t exhaust himself, as not even he can withstand the full force of his own power. However, if an opponent is stronger than him, Okami will put his full force into his opening blows to harry his enemy’s advance and prevent them from using their own techniques.
When around women, the esteemed Shiba Clan Head changes slightly. His aloof behavior becomes even more pronounced, and his judgment tends to err more often. He is a severe romantic, and will often attempt to woo those that catch his eye. He is undeniably straight, however, and this never wavers. Okami's ideal woman varies, as he views each as a unique work of art, valued in their own way. Tsukiakari Shojo comes first in his mind, as she is the embodiment of his "soulmate", as he views it, and if she disapproves of his actions or his choice in companions, he will immediately rectify this slight against her.

Physical Traits:
- Appearance:
BACK-DROP
History: He's a good, loyal soldier of the Gotei. Sort of. That being said, you'll never get him to tell you the whole story. You had to be there.
Side Notes: "The moon isn't just some stone in the sky. Ancient civilizations believed that it was much more than that. The sun may be a symbol of light and life, and the moon is it's mirror. It drives others to madness, whips up storms and tides. It is the gateway to the unknowable, cold and untouchable, and yet burning with unearthly power. It is chaos, destruction, and the void. That is the true essence of the moon, and the truth of my Zanpakuto." ~ Okami Shiba
THE COMBAT INFORMATION
General Fighting Style: Okami relies heavily on Zanjutsu and his Zanpakuto's unique abilities, but has a working knowledge of high-level Kidou to raw from as well. He tends to use his experience and creativity to his advantage in combat, often coming across as a berserker due to his tendency to never let up until he is physically incapable of doing so.
Strengths: Reiatsu, Reiryoku, Reiatsu Control, Zanjutsu
Weaknesses: Sensing, Stamina, Durability
Ability Name: Forceful Reiatsu
Ability Description: Okami is gifted at flexing his reiatsu, allowing him to attempt to influence targets even stronger than he is with his signature destructive vibes. Targets who are not strong enough to exert their own reiatsu are usually brought to their knees, at least at first. Can be fought against. When released, his reiatsu darkens the area with cracks of glowing silver appearing across the air and ground spreading out from his body.
Ability Name: Zanjutsu Mastery
Ability Description: After years both on the battlefield and duels, Okami has gotten used to the flow and tempo of combat. Due to this, he is able to roughly predict what an enemy swordsman is going to do. So long as he has seen a zanjutsu technique before, he can recognize it's use and react accordingly. This becomes more difficult with opponents on a similar level as he is, but still theoretically possible.
ZANPAKUTO
Sealed Appearance:
- Sealed Appearance:
Zanpakutou Name: Tsukiakari Shojo
Call Out Command: Eclipse
- Shikai [Unlocked at 3-2]:
- SHIKAI
Appearance: Once released, Tsukiakari Shojo’s wrapping turns a gleaming white, with a black silk ribbon running around a foot from the pommel.
Abilities:
Ability Name: Shingetsu Namida
Ability Description: Tsukiakari Shojo absorbs and condenses the wielder's reiatsu, releasing a large veil of destructive energy. This can be released from the point of the sword as a large slashing blast, or along the edge of the blade to enhance a physical blow. This technique has a 2 post cooldown, and causes double Cero damage.
Ability Name: Shatterpoint
Ability Description: By infecting something he strikes with the chaotic energy of the moon, Okami is capable of causing a shatterpoint, a purposeful weakness that causes an extra Cero's worth of damage to whatever is struck in the form of cracking lines in either the air or the ground, glowing with silver light. This has a one post cooldown.
Ability Name: Unravel
Ability Description: Tsukiakari Shojo is capable of dismantling incoming energy-based attacks that is struck with the blade, with a cooldown equal to the attack dismantled plus one post, and with an equal amount of energy taken from Okami's reserves.
Ability Name: Destroyer
Ability Description: Okami creates multiple smaller shatterpoints that blast outward in a manner similar to Bala, generating five per post. These are not tied to previous strikes, and act as blasts of raw force, used as ranged attacks.
- Bankai [Unlocked at 2-1]:
- BANKAI
New Name: Tsukiakari Shojo: Kokū no Joō
Appearance: After the release of his Bankai, Okami's form drips with what appears to be black ink, spreading across a 500ft radius from himself. This turns the area into a gorgeous clear night, with a false moon shining bright and full above along with a field of stars. His Zanpakuto itself remains unchanged.
Abilities:
Ability Name: Butterfly Effect
Ability Description: Okami's abilities are no longer tied to his own direct interaction, and can be fired from anywhere within the space his Bankai touches. Abilities used within roughly 30 feet of himself have to originate from his body as his reiatsu interferes with the accuracy and strength of a ranged attack, and there is a brief flare of his reiatsu before the attack is fired from the location selected.
Ability Name: Stardust
Ability Description: The chaotic energy caused by Okami's Zanpakuto is coalesced into a physical form as dust that can be generated by his various attacks and manipulated once per post, with anything affected splintering on contact as if put under a large amount of pressure. Anything touched by stardust takes damage equal to Hado #33, and it has a maximum range of 75 feet.
Ability Name: Faultline
Ability Description: An advanced version of Shatterpoint, where multiple points are converged together to amplify the ability. This is capable of hitting with double Cero force at a 2 post cooldown, Gran Rey Cero-force at 3 posts, and Cero Oscuras at 4 posts. This is exclusive, meaning that only one strength can be used at once, and the cooldown needs to complete for another faultline of any strength can be made.
Ability Name: Devouring Void
Ability Description: A series of shatterpoints are infused with stardust, breaking apart with the force of a Forbidden Kidou. This has a five post cooldown.
