THE SUBSTITUTE SHINIGAMI / HUMAN APPLICATION
Name: Rinoa HeartilyAge: 17
Sex: Female
Personality:
- Spoiler:
- Rinoa's main selling point is that she is an extreme extrovert. She focuses on everything externally, where one takes things in primarily via their intuition. Her secondary way of thinking is internal, where one deals with things according to how you feel about them, or how she fits in with your personal value system. Rinoa is warm, enthusiastic, and typically very bright as well as full of potential. She thrives in the world of possibilities, and can become very passionate and excited about things no matter how small or mundane. Her enthusiasm lends the ability to inspire and motivate others, more so than you'd expect in someone else. She can generally talk her way in or out of anything. She loves life, seeing it as a special gift, and strives to make the most out of it.
Rinoa also has an unusually broad range of skills and talents. She is good at most things which interest her, usually without having to try very hard at first. Project-oriented, She may go through several different careers during her lifetime. On the outside Rinoa may seem directionless and without purpose, but she is actually quite consistent, within her own behavior and choices, in that she has a strong sense of values which she lives with throughout her life. Everything that she does must be in line with her values. Rinoa absolutely needs to feel that she is living her life as her true self, walking in step with what she believe is right, as any deviation from this "comfort zone" causes rebellious behavior and struggle to return to the path regardless of circumstance and consequence. Rinoa sees meaning in everything, and is on a continuous quest to adapt her life and values to achieve inner peace. Rinoa is constantly aware and somewhat fearful of losing touch with themselves. Since emotional excitement is usually an important part of the girl's life, and because she is focused on keeping "centered", she is usually an intense individual, with highly evolved values.
Rinoa needs to focus on following through with her projects which can be a problem area for someone of her mental state. Unlike other Extroverts, the girl needs time alone to center herself, and make sure she is moving in a direction which is in sync with her values. If Rinoa manages to remain centered she will usually be quite successful at her endeavors. She can get excited about new possibilities, however it can keep her from finishing "greater" achievements by running into a habit of stopping halfway in.
She has great people skills. She is genuinely warm and interested in people, and places great importance on her inter-personal relationships. Rinoa almost always has a strong need to be liked. Sometimes, especially at a younger age, Rinoa tends to be "gushy" and insincere, and generally "overdo" in an effort to win acceptance. However, once Rinoa has learned to balance her need to be true to herself with her need for acceptance, she excels at bringing out the best in others, and is typically well-liked. She has an exceptional ability to intuitively understand a person after a very short period of time, and uses her intuition and flexibility to relate to others on her own level.
Because Rinoa tries so hard to live in the world of exciting possibilities, the details of everyday life are seen as trivial drudgery. She places no importance on detailed, maintenance-type tasks, and will frequently remain oblivious to these types of concerns. When she does have to perform these tasks, she does not enjoy it. This is a challenging area of life for her, and can be frustrating for her friends and family who deal with her regularly.
The gift of gab which she is blessed with makes it naturally easy for her to get what she wants, within reason. She doesn't consciously try to, and wouldn't be willing to, abuse her abilities of speech however, because that would not jive with her value systems. Rinoa sometimes makes serious errors in judgment. She has an amazing ability to intuitively perceive the truth about a person or situation, but when she applies judgment to her perception, she may jump to the wrong conclusions.
She is basically a happy person all around. Though she may become unhappy when she is confined to strict schedules or mundane tasks. Consequently, she works best in situations where she has a lot of flexibility, and where she can work with people and ideas. She has the ability to be quite productive with little supervision, as long as she is excited about what she is doing.
Because she is so alert and sensitive physically, constantly scanning her environments, She often suffers from muscle tension. She has a strong need to be independent, and resists being controlled or labelled. She needs to maintain control over herself, but she does not believe in controlling others. Her dislike of dependence and suppression extends to others as well as to herself.
She has a high tendency to be charming, ingenuous, risk-taking, sensitive, and people-oriented with capabilities ranging across a broad spectrum. She has many gifts which she will use to fulfill herself and those near her, if she is able to remain centered and eventually master the ability of following through on things she could achieve wonderful results.
CHARACTER APPEARANCE

BACK-DROP
History: [Optional.]Side Notes: Substitute Shinigami
FIGHTING STYLE
General Fighting Style: When put into Melee combat Rinoa relies on quick small strikes focusing more heavily on being defensive. Her main offensive is her abilities and what they can do to augment her combat potential. If for some reason she can't use her abilities though she will always default to the most defensive tactic's she can think of or manage under the circumstances. Pressure Tactics is definitely a good way to describe the "flighty and quick light strikes" that she tries to use.Strengths: Reiryoku, Reiatsu
Weaknesses: Endurance
SUBSTITUTE SHINIGAMI
•She has a "Combat Pass" accessory somewhere on her person. This allows Soul Society to gauge her reiatsu levels, track her, communicate with her if absolutely needed, but does not allow her to talk back to Soul Society. It also powers itself by passively absorbing energy from Rinoa that she wouldn't need/miss/notice. Rinoa's Combat Pass also allows her to use the pass itself to perform Konso on the dead to send their souls to Soul Society. (Since she does not have an Asauchi or a Zanpaktou)
PRIMARY STAGE
Ability Name: Silent Tear
Appearance:
- Spoiler:
Ability Name: Vanishing Star
Appearance:
- Spoiler:
Ability Name: Elemental Burst
Description: Rinoa can choose any single element and toss it at an enemy for a cero worth of damage once per post, regardless of if it's a beam from her finger, a bolt from the sky, a bullet from the left, or whatever the shape/method used is. It will always only do a cero in damage if it hits someone, disappears after hitting the first thing it comes into contact with, and moves at the speed expected of that element (Up to Bala speed in the case of "Faster" elements like Light.) The attacks must happen within 200ft of Rinoa, nor does she have any control over the attack once it's set off (no curving or turning or anything). The attacks total area of effect cannot exceed thirty feet regardless of element or method of attack.
Ability Name: Telekinesis
Description: She is able to manipulate up to five objects at once, up to the size of a semi. She cannot control an attack or object that is being controlled by someone else. She can fire objects the size of a human at high speeds, smaller at bala, and bigger objects at Cero speeds.
SECONDARY STAGE
Ability Name: Angel Wings
Description: She can use her wings defensively, able to reduce damage from incoming attacks by at least 50% if used to cover Rinoa, or someone she is near, though the wings would never show signs of damage because they are not able to be damaged or destroyed as they aren't biological/real wings. They are versatile enough to be used to slap normal physical attacks or projectiles away at high speed as well. These wings also give her the ability of flight and the ability to use Air-Step, basically a variant of Shinigami's Air-Walk.
Ability Name: Healing Grace
Description: As long as Rinoa physically places hands on another person, or targets herself, she is capable of healing that person, or herself, with the following restrictions. Each time she heals, whether it's someone else or her, there is a clear and obvious yellow/white glow of light where the healing is occurring. This only heals physical wounds meaning it does nothing for poisons, mental/emotional ability damage, nor does it bypass wounds that negate healing temporarily.
•Light healing - four times per post. one wound per use. (minor cuts, and skin deep wounds only.)
•Moderate Healing - once per two posts. one wound per use. (stab wounds, lacerations, but still no organ repair or limb replacement.)
•Heavy Healing - once per four posts. one wound per use. (bone breaks, small holes in the body.)
•Life Saver - once per six posts. one wound per use. (dangerously near-lethal wounds, but only one limb or organ per use if used to replace them)
•God-Like Restoration - once per thread. one wound per use. She also can't use this on herself. (If they aren't actually dead they are okay now. But they do not recover lost stamina or reiryoku)
Ability Name: Lunar Cry
Description: Rinoa is able to call upon the moon, whether visible or not, and do one of three effects. Each effect shares CD so she can't just cycle through all 3.
•1. She can form pillars of Lunar Light which teleport whoever is inside them shortly after to a Location of Rinoa's choosing or at random. Using the ability in this manner exit's Rinoa (as she is always selected as a target) and anyone else caught in the light beams from the thread. Enemies are not able to attack into or while inside the pillars of Light but likewise allies can not attack outside or inside the pillar while inside it themselves. (This is Rinoa's version of a Hollow using Negacion)
•2. She can protect herself and her allies from 75% damage from the NEXT attack they take. This effect can only be used once per six posts. This effect remains until the people affected take an attack from any source regardless of strength behind the attack. (Pebble or Meteor is irrelevant to triggering the effect)
•3. She becomes able to protect herself from taking damage from the time this effect begins until it ends, although attacks still make contact with her and the "physics" of those attacks still apply (being launched backwards and such) this lasts until she is struck by any attack. She cannot do this again for six posts. (Pebble or Meteor is irrelevant to triggering the effect)
Ability Name: Wishing Star
Description: She is able to perform eight dash attacks at Shunpo Speed leaving after images in the wake of her massive speed burst. This can hit multiple target(s) within the "Line" of the dash but each target is only struck once per dash (Total of eight if the target is hit all eight dash attack attempts) She "seems to" phase through objects and people in the way of her dash, but in reality she is simply moving around them so gracefully and quickly without missing a beat that it only "appears" that way. This has a four post cooldown.
