Bleach You are a Zanpakuto

[Prince Charon]

If you were a zanpakuto, what sort would you be?

What would your release phrase be?

What would you look like in your shikai, bankai, and manifest forms, and what powers would you have/grant?

What shinigami, canon or otherwise, would you prefer to serve (remember, Tousen is using the zanpakuto of another shinigami (who died, or got eaten by a Hollow), so it is possibly to go from one to another)?

 

[Vexarian]

I'm bored, so I have two.

Name: Sui-Riu

Release command: "Soar"

Hand-guard: A profile of an open dragon mouth
Hilt: Orange

Shikai: It is a thin, somewhat long sword, with a dragon etching on the blade. The hilt is a dragon's head, with the blade extending from the dragon's open mouth, as if the blade was its fire. The bottom of the hilt possesses a dragon fang.

Abilities: The etching of the dragon on Sui-Riu's blade glows, and then expands. The blade will take the shape of an oriental dragon when the etching breaks the barrier of the blade. The Dragon can then lengthen from the hilt and be controlled mentally. Despite its shape and flexibility, the dragon remains as flat, sharp, hard and strong as metal. The dragon can also launch flames from it's mouth.

Bankai: A total of ten dragons, as in the shikai, that can be controlled independently, or combined into 1 metal dragon (form of a dragon, not just a flat design) that can also shoot large metal spires from its mouth.

Wielder: Renji, I guess, since this is similar to his.


---


Name: Phantasmagoria

Release command: "Multiply and Destroy"

Hand-guard: A ring that isn't attached to the hilt physically (I. e., it looks like it's floating)
Hilt: Blue

Shikai: It is a 7ft. long, double-edged sword, mostly black, with blue edges.

Abilities: The main ability of Phantasmagoria, is to create extra blades of the sword. By default, Phantasmagoria always has one Phantasm (known as the Primary Phantasm), which costs no reiatsu to maintain. The Phantasm is a replica of the blade of Phantasmagoria, but located exactly one foot away from the blade, and containing no hilt, merely floating in place. The Phantasm can appear on either the left or right side of the blade, but always stays on the plane of the blade. There is no reiatsu cost to switch which side the Primary Phantasm is located. A Phantasm has one main effect, which is to greatly enhance the force of a sword swing. The way this works, is when the sword is swung, the Phantasm would hit the target first (if it's on the same side of the sword, of course). The force holding the Phantasm a foot away from the blade is quite weak, so the blade itself would keep moving towards the object while the Phantasm is held against it, decreasing the distance between the blade and the Phantasm (unless the target was weak enough that the Phantasm cut through it). When the Phantasm and the blade make contact, they will instantly merge, and for a split second, the force that was used in the sword swing to get them to combine will be multiplied by five, and exerted into the sword swing at the target (I.e., it will be as if the sword was swung with five times the force it actually was swung at). While the Primary Phantasm is free of chakra cost, Ixero can create as many Phantasms as he wishes, but each comes with a reiatsu cost. Each additional Phantasm (known collectively as the Phantasmagory) must be one foot away from the previous, but on either side of the blade. Phantasms can merge in the same way that one can combine with the blade, but the force increase will not happen until the real blade merges with the Phantasm. The force increase from a multiple combination is not continually multiplied by 5, it's just the addition of another 5 times force (I.e., if the sword swing has a force of 10, it does not increase to 50 and then 250 and then 1250, etc., it increases to 50 and then 100 and then 150, etc.). Once a Phantasm merges, it cannot unmerge from the blade or other Phantasms.

Bankai: Innumerable Phantasms appear floating all throughout the battlefield, able to be collected for use. Also, their multiplier increases from 5 to 20.

Wielder: Komamura, since his massive strength compliments it well

 

[Reikson]

Name: Shuusui
Release Command: N/A; constant-shikai type
Tsuba: Resembles the Hibiscus syriacus
Tsuka: Black

Shikai: A multiplying effect; this weapon gives new meaning to the phrase 'death by a thousand cuts'. Once scratched by this blade, death is only a matter of time.

Bankai: Kokuyoru Shuusui. An ornately-decorated sword that's six-feet long and shaped like a cross with a shiny black blade that curves off at the end, this weapons discards finesse in favor of overwhelming power, generating powerful kenatsu techniques in an otherworldly-purple color.

Wielder: Kurosaki Ichigo

 

[nuclear death frog]

I think if I were a zanpakuto I wouldn't let my host have any access to my powers, out of spite and contrariness.

 

[SEG-CISR]

You are a Zanpakuto

MY LEGS?! WHERE ARE MY FUCKING LEGS!

My release phrases would reflect me. Like, "Trip, LSD." Or something like that. Druggie swords sound fucking awesome.

My Shikai would be, like, a big sword. Cuz I'm big, and stuff. I dunno, a rapier or something- perhaps a longsword, even. I like those. And anyone I hit is overtaken by violent hallucinations. Not just violent, but shit that leaves them scarred. Like, "frightened by crunchy leaves in the winter" scarred. Fuck yeah!

Bankai would be... bigger. Like, stupidly hueg, Sanosuke's sword-sized. Fuck, I wanna be Sano's sword. And I warp the spatial perception of everyone around me. For good or for bad, is the wielder's choice.

Wielder? Shit, I dunno. Juushiro probably ruined his lungs from nicotine or some shit, and he's just covering it up with a disease. So he uses weed so he can smoke without all the ill effects and shit. (The tar in cigarettes is what fucks you up, marijuana's goooood)

Well, you kind of fit Kenpachi, then.

re: Tousen's Zanpakto.

The original owner was killed by her husband, a fellow shinigami.

........Though this is pure lulz....... Crack/Madness/Prancing Pony insanity post

Name: Itazuramono

Command Release : laugh at the storm

Hand guard: A tarnished white shaped crescent moon. Looks like someone smudged it with oil.

Hilt: A oily dark back. Strangely reflective.

Blade: Sharp and bright grey. As if just polished.

Type: A wakizashi

Zanpakuto spirit: Demands constant attention. At times taking the appearance of a handsome man or a beautiful woman. However once leaving their presence, everyone is unable to recall any particular feature of either the man or the woman. Simply that they looked beautiful/handsome. They are clothed in a mixture of soft grey robes that seem to hide and reveal everything underneath at the same time. Extremely playful and possessive though can be very vengeful if neglected for long.

Shikai: The hand guard becomes bright yellow while the hilt becomes a burning orange. The blade itself becomes a soft shimmering purple. Almost like a haze. Transparent but for a soft outline which is visible close up. Moving the sword creates a "illusion" of the blade's movement which are clearly defined and dark purple compared to the blade. This effect occurs in front and behind the path of the blade's passage. A small illusion that there are "4" different blades, where in fact there is but one.

Creates an aura of sexual lust and the physical pain within a 10 meter radius. The closer you get to the blade, the more intense this feeling becomes. At the edge of the affected area, opponents become sexually aroused while suffering from minor aches/pain. Men get very hard. Women get very wet. This is beyond their control.

Whoever is holding the hilt is immune to the aura of Itazuramono. However if the user is cut/struck by Itazuramono (due to a spatial manipulation or something) then the user is suffers the full effects of Itazuramono, regardless if one is holding the hilt.

The aura's effect everything within a space of 10 meters.


On a scale of 1-10. 10 being sexually aroused and 1 being an mind numbing orgasm. Anyone within the 1 meter radius of this blade for approximately 60 seconds will trigger a orgasm in themselves regardless of the whether cut by this blade.

Similarly on a scale of 1-10. 10 being minor pain; aches and irritation and 1 being mind numbing pain that racks the body as all the body's pain receptors fire off randomly causing muscles to spasm and even cramp if this goes on for too long.

For every 60 seconds spent within one of the "rings" of effect, the opponent (even though still 10 meters away) will experience the next tier of effect. (ie: 10 to 9 to 8 to 7 and so on, culminating at 1)

Being struck by this blade causes you know what instantaneously.

I say being struck as the blade, though appearing razor sharp is blunt and incapable of slicing. Instead it causes bruises. Blunt force. It is possible to cut, but only if the user actually forces an immense amount of force behind the blade.

Though the tip of the blade is razor sharp. All cuts must originate from the tip.

Skill: chameru (to play pranks)

1- It is possible to attack a target in the distance if the user lifts up the zanpakuto and holds it in front of their face with the blade facing outwards and towards the intended target. A "build-up" of reiatsu is required to cast this "spell"

2- User must be stationary for this to work. User must be have fine control of their reiatsu when using this skill or the effect will simply seek an easier target, regardless of user's intent. If there is no one within 10 meters of the caster, the "spell" fizzles and targets user instead. (Think of it as shooting an arrow, though if you make a mistake, the arrow hits you instead)

2.1 - No matter your control, a distanced target will be aware (barring illusions otherwise or target being extremely preoccupied at the moment) of someone "watching" them as it were, causing unease and constantly look around for the "watcher", barring illusions or something else which requires the intended target to give their utmost attention to something else.

2.2 - this effect works on single targets only. It is incapable of targeting more than 1 person at a time.

3- only works with target within the line of sight. Effects are decreased where obstacles are in between or the further the target is away. The less you can see of the intended target, the more the user needs to focus or the attack will fizzle and attack caster instead.

(note: clear glass does not affect this effect nor do clothes (ie: masks, cloaks, shirts, etc))

Ie of obstacles : only able to view part of the intended target (half a face), leaves, trees, grass, anything that blocks sight.

4- using this skill in a crowds automatically directs all attention of everyone within the line of sight to you. User must be hidden or in a 1 on 1 battle. (ie: casting this skill during a heavy melee with others nearby will draw everyone's attention towards you.

5- it is technically possible to hit multiple targets but this relies on extreme control, a large amount of reiatsu and speed on part of the caster. Best combined with Shunpo for most mayhem.

A) Chameru is invisible and cannot be blocked. It cannot be evaded once casted by the user. Effects are instantaneous.


Bankai: Unknown.

Itazuramono's challenge is to fight a hundred visions of itself, each with a copy of the wakizashi Itazuramono is. Only after defeating the last illusion will it reveal the Bankai. If the user falls in battle to Itazuramono, the zanpakuto spirit gains a measure of "hold" on the user. Forcing them to perform various deeds for its amusement.

Note - for every illusion of Itazuramono that is not defeated, the user will have to complete that many deeds. (eg: 30 illusions of Itazuramono - 70 left standing so thats 70 "favours" to Itazuramono that must be done or else the user cannot access the shikai on his/her own will, only when Itazuramono actively wishes)

1.1- the user (if defeated and owing a favour to Itazuramono) feels a urgent need to fufill the zanpakuto's demands of its favours. Not doing so makes the user feel downcast, sad and melancholic while causing small physical aches. Over time these effects will multiply indefinetly. Doing whatever the zanpakuto demands lightens this effect and even causes the user to feel uplifted, happy and carefree.

Itazuramono actively offers the challenge to its user. There is no meditation required beyond accessing one's inner world to meet the zanpakuto or using one of Urahara's training gigai (whatever they are called) which allow the zanpakuto to physically manifest.

According to it, only 2 people have ever defeated and mastered it. A man and a woman.

Everyone else was "enslaved" by it after failing at its Bankai challenge over 10 times. After 10 failed attempts, the zanpakuto's grip on its user is such that the user is incapable of even fighting against it mentally. The owner may disagree with the zanpakuto, but any command given to him/her by Itazuramono will be instantly be obeyed.

ie :
1."calm down" - despite whatever the user wishes, he/she will calm down.

2."do *insert command here*" - whatever the user wishes or despite how he/she feels, their body and mind will be completely devoted to fufilling the command given. The user will be aware but completely unable to act in any given way to counteract the command given.

3. "you will always tell the truth to*insert name here* and not try to twist the words to convey or imply something that isn't true" - say it was the zanpakuto itself. Thus the "enslaved" person would always speak the candid truth to the zanpakuto, without even being able to bend the words to make the opposite seem true.

You literally become a complete slave to the zanpakuto. Self aware and conscious but also completely unable to act against the zanpakuto.

In other words, I daren't access it.

 

[Aarik]

... That's impossible.

ANYWAY.


Name: Warai o karakau (Mocking laughter (supposedly.))
Release Command: Mokku subete no nuime o sakusei/Mock the all of creation to stitches
Tsuba: Shaped like a flat generic European longsword
Tsuka: Red

Shikai: Warai o karakau: Takes the form of two thin western longswords. This sword has two main abilities, one offensive, one support... ish. The main offensive ability, is it's ability to 'multiply the existence' of things, specifically itself and pieces of it's wielders body that it's attached to.

Mastery of this ability turns the user into a whirlwind of blades, slashing and stabbing in from every angle and blocking everything with an interwoven web of steel, even worse, the multiplied existence's can pass harmlessly through each other, allowing normally impossible strikes.

The second ability is... Odd. It allows the wielder to strike through the opponent into the enemies inner world, striking their Zanpukutou's spirit instead, the surprise of this usually cause's them to lose the Shikai or Bankai if done without the enemies awareness, otherwise the spirit might dodge or block the attack, though succesful strikes that don't dispel the Shikai or Bankai of the enemy do still weaken the target's sword, and thus them.

There is something else that could possibly be considered an 'ability'... But other then being incredibly annoying it has no offensive applications, when the sword is beginning to be activated, that is, the wielder begins calling the release phrase, the Zanpakutou Spirit of the sword gains the ability to speak audibly to the outside world with any voice it chooses...

And immediately starts making fun of pretty much everything, like saying "Attack Ride: Warai o karakau" the instant it's wielder begins speaking the release phrase, or 'Form Blazing Swords!" or singing 'theme music' with accompanying instruments for whoever is currently doing something. Kurosaki Ichigo was NOT amused when it started 'Motteke Sailor Fuku' the instant he came through the door. Zeraki Kenpachi however was when he got the Masaaki Endoh remix of 'YOU WA SHOCK!' on his way out to Las Noches.

Bankai: Saish warau (Last laugh): TECHNICALLY the swords themselves remain the same, though chest forearm and greaves/boot armor is given to the wielder, the power unlocked by this Bankai is simply an extension of the two abilities of the Shikai. Multiplying the full existence of the wielder... Into offshoots that explode when struck once, the wielder see's and hears everything the offshoots do, and the wielder and the offshoots can use alll of the Shikai abilities of the sword(s).

The swords multiplied existences can now be imbued with raw Reiatsu to improve striking and cutting power.

As an extension of the second ability, the Wielder (or their offshoots) can fully enter the enemies inner world physically, attacking them from the inside and outside, this is done by simply striking the opponent, even simply crossing swords will do as the Zanpakutou is still the opponent, once done with this ability in mind, the Wielder or whichever offshoot did so will simply vanish and appear instantly in the inner world of the target.

That talking... Get's worse, as the Spirit can mimic a chorus, even more then normal.

Both forms of the sword possess the limit that they can only function within the limits of the owners Reiatsu.

Wielder: unnamed 4th seat of 11th Division, does not have Bankai and never uses the Shikai's abilities, which might be part of the reason the spirit of the sword mocks him so furiously.

Spirit: A Knight, wearing thick plated armor, standing at six feet in height and seemingly broad muscled, carrying it's own Shikai form at it's hips, has no visible holes of any kind on it's armor, including for the mouth and eyes.

In Bankai: Mostly the same, except it grows to a full 2 meters (not much bigger) gains a red cape and its armor plates stick up and gain blade like edges.

It is scathingly sarcastic, finds almost everything amusing and laughs without restraint, takes almost nothing seriously and responds to threats with apathy and lack of concern.

 

[Takerial]

I would turn into a dildo with the release phase of "Fuck them up!"

I would only be able to be activated against attractive female shinigami/hollows. Where I would proceed to bring them to the brink of orgasm, then force them to submit to my owner's power.

My bankai would consist of me surrounding my owner and making him into a tentacle monster.

 

[zeebee1]

Your notes clearly state that your bankai makes you sexually attracted to homophobes. It right there in the fine print.

 

[David Alan Abramczyk]

If you were a zanpakuto, what sort would you be?

What would your release phrase be?

What would you look like in your shikai, bankai, and manifest forms, and what powers would you have/grant?

What shinigami, canon or otherwise, would you prefer to serve (remember, Tousen is using the zanpakuto of another shinigami (who died, or got eaten by a Hollow), so it is possibly to go from one to another)?

My Zanpakuto

Name: Raimeko ("Child of Thunder"/"Thunder Child")

Release Command: "Crash, Raimeko!"

Sealed Form: A blued-steel katana with an enclosed sabre-style hilt to protect the hand; on the hilt is etched a 'fouled anchor' design

Shikai Form: Raimeko is draw from the sheath as the command "Crash" is given; then is held up in a salute pose, before being thrust into the air as its' name is given. Lightning then strikes the tip of the blade, and starts dancing along the length of the blade. Every successful hit causes an electrical shock to the target.

Bankai Form: Raimeko is essentially turned into a lightsabre in this form.

Manifested Form: The manifested form appears as a dark-haired European woman wearing a skimpy version of a late 19th Century Royal Navy officer's uniform.

How's this?

 

[Jeopardizer]

Hmmm...

Name: Yama no ¶ (for Mountain's king)

Release command: Stumble, Yama no ¶.

Sealed form: A chokuto (straight katana) with a decorated wooden handle/seath.

Shikai form: A long hand saw. The blade's weight can be changed, from extremely light to awfully heavy.

Bankai form: A double headed battle axe, the bottom of the handle finish like a spear. Can alter the orientation/sense and the power of the gravity for both itself and the wielder.

Manifested form: A tall dark-haired man with caucasian features, big breads and a manly combo mustache/short beard. He is dressed in fine clothes but carry a heavy axe with him.

Would like to by wielded by: Kyoraku Shunsui. His style would go along great with the blade's abilities (misdirection, surpise & co) and they share similarities, more dangerous than they appears among them.


VoilÓ!

 

[Watashiwa]

To steal an idea from Nugar, from long days ago; a zanpakto that would have the ability to make anyone within its field of influence orgasm at any interval of my choosing.

Because while zanpakto that make you go super fast or make you super powerful are cool and all.

I dare you to hold a straight face when your the most sensitive part of your body's saying "haha, no; fuck your world domination plans. I'm orgasming."

 

[yog]

Name: founder of keys.
Release phrase: open the path, founder of keys.
sealed form: strait blade, single edged, something like benihime, only shorter and with straight handle.
shikai state: a metal gauntlet, a visor (or glasses) and a blade, which can be thrown. When thrown, it leaves the trace, visible through the visor. The blade can be instantly teleported into any point of its path, or into the hold of the gauntlet, keeping the speed it had before teleportation. The maximum length of the path recorded depends on the amount of rejatsu of the user.
bankai state: Founder of Keys, Gates of Abyss. Form: the visor transforms into the blindfold, the blade becomes the mirror shard, the gauntlet transforms into a solid fist with the keyhole. The blade is now able to exist in any and all points of its path simultaneously. The objects passing through the surface of the blade at one point can be transported to the other point of the blade (like a portal gun, where any point of the blade can be both incoming and outgoing portal). The blindfold grants the user the ability to see from all points of the blade surface simultaneously (it puts a big amount of stress onto the brain). The total amount of the surface of the blade esisting at any one moment of time depends on the rejatsu of the user.
manifested form: Chesire cat, probably. Or some non-euclidian horror. You know what... Both: Schrödinger's cat.

 

[WizardOne]

Name: Hateyouall
Release Phrase: Fuck off and leave me alone
Sealed form: A Chair.
Shikai State: A bigger Chair.
Bankai: Leather Armchair
Manifested form: A tall thin guy who sits in a chair and ignores people.
Would like to be weilded by: Zaraki Kenpachi, because he's such a dipshit and can't speak to or use his sword, that I wouldn't have to do anything and I'd be able to just ignore him and everyone else and do whatever. Whatever probably involving posting on forums and reading fanfics.

 

[zeebee1]

So, David is a woman?

 

[David Alan Abramczyk]

You don't get to comment on other people, Zeebee.

[zeebee1]

David, you aren't God. You aren't even Hawk. You don't have any influence over what I comment on.

Let's look at the title. This thread is about the posters being a Zanpakuto. You are defining your soul as a weapon. You said that your soul manifests as a women. If you are going to take this seriously then that means something.

 

[David Alan Abramczyk]

Maybe; but then again, Shunsui's zanpukuto's spirit is a woman, and for that matter, so is Renji's, at least in part, so there's some leeway in that.

 

[zeebee1]

Yeah, and they don't go insulting people when it's brought up. Besides, it seems likely that half of Zabimaru is male.

 

[FlashofGenius]

Name: Paradigm

Command Release : Delude and Reveal, Paradigm!

Released Description: A Gladius (roman sword)- A straight blade a little less than two feet long, and broader than most Medieval short swords, with a plain cross-guard and pommel. Although it's construction means it's not as good as slashing and cutting as the Japanese style swords, it's better at thrusting.

Zanpakuto spirit: Compassionate, logical, understanding, and quite friendly. However, it regards all social values and norms (including religion, right and wrong, and good and evil) as systems, all equally valid and equally meaningless. He'll cheerfully blaspheme religious figures and doesn't even think in terms of right and wrong. While most of the time cheerful and friendly, he becomes disappointed and contemptuous whenever his wielder lies to himself/herself or ignores evidence in favor of what he/she wants to be true.

Shikai: Paradigm slips beliefs or "facts" into an enemy's mind, which become nigh indistinguishable from normal thoughts. This can be anything from "your enemy is a coward", to "he doesn't care about innocent bystanders" to even "the sky is orange". Done subtly, this a very to ensure an enemy makes wrong assumptions and stupid decisions. If the belief contradicts another fact or strong belief the target has, or is obviously untrue, the target simply gets has a moment of extreme cognitive dissonance before the mental "illusion" breaks. However, Paradigm can only feasibly hold two such "illusions" in a target's mind, and can't affect more than one target.

Bankai: Identical to Shikai in both physical appearance and basic ability...except the victims of the "mental illusions" will disregard all contradictory evidence. Strong contradictory beliefs will still shatter the illusion. Like the shikai, this ability affects thought processes, not senses- they can still see and sense contradictory evidence, it simply doesn't register in their thought processes. In addition, during Bankai Paradigm can plant up to four ideas in up to five or six different opponents at once.

In combat: Paradigm lacks power, but in the hands of a clever and capable wielder, can be very dangerous because of it's ability to mess with the minds of his opponents. In shikai form, it's power is very difficult to counter- opponents don't realize that they've been affected until it's to late. Bankai form equally parts trippy and terrifying as opponents find themselves unable to trust their own thoughts, and the world stops making sense as Paradigms power alters their perception. It's very much like going mad.
