Zanpakuto Information

Zanpakuto Name: Mamoru

Zanpakuto Looks:
Zanpakuto Description: In its natural state Mamoru is a simple sword, light in weight. There is a guard over the hand that can be used to parry attacks. The blade is very fine.

Released Zanpakuto Description: Upon being released the sword transforms to a guard the length of Gesshin’s arm. It is not a normal guard, it looks like a lion. His middle three fingers slide into the top jaw, able to operate the razor-sharp teeth of Mamoru. The bottom jaw can be pulled out and reveals to be a Katar. The Katar has two blades perpendicular to the handle as a normal Katar would, and then two more that would have been the bottom teeth of the lion if left in. The left arm acts as a shield and a potential grapple. The Katar in the right arm acts as the close ranged melee weapon, and also a potential grapple. The left arm could also pack a fearsome punch, but that is not its primary purpose.

Zanpakuto Abilities

The main special ability is that if the Katar is able to grapple the enemy, then the lion’s mouth widens and reveals it’s sharp lining as it extends forward and sinks it’s teeth into the enemy.
As a secondary skill the left arm can blast balls of air. These are not very strong, but could pack a punch on a direct hit. Partial & Full Hits cause blow back effect.

Zanpakuto Release Phrase: All of that which can be conquered is yours. Prevail, Mamoru.

Released Zanpakuto Looks: It looks like a lion with a great mane that acts a guard.

Zanpakuto Spirit: The spirit is a great male lion.

Zanpakuto Realm: The realm is a clustered city that looks like everyone dropped everything and left instantly.

History and RP Sample

History:

His life in Rukongai was boring. Gesshin was a lonely spirit that did not meet many people over his years, nor did he wish to meet many people. Everyday seemed to drag on for an eternity. He had no home, and no means to obtain one. He sat alone in an alley way for most of his time. The interesting part was that he felt content with this. Anyone else would be pulling out their hair, but Gesshin could sit alone and do nothing. This went on for the better part of his lifetime, what a pathetic existence. It was one fateful day that some familiar face from the village came up to the boy and told him he was a waste of life. Such was a common expression, but in this case it was not an expression, it was fact. There was something about the term waste that got to him. It implied that his existence somehow frustrating or hindering someone else’s. How does someone find the medium between being a waste and being productive? This is what Gesshin sought to find. Something to note was that Gesshin was not an existentialist or anything of that sort. Instead he was a person that just didn’t want to be bothered by other people, which entailed him not bothering other people. He was lazy to the extent that his life’s goal was to become the perfect lazy person so long as he didn’t cause a burden.

There was not much to do in Rukongai to explore and try and find his answers. Naturally the majority of the souls sought to enter Soul Society. There was some high appeal associated with this place that sparked some interest in Gesshin. He decided to enroll in the Academy, dedicating most of his time to training. Some would speculate that he was somewhat passionate with his training, he trained when it felt right to him. Training may not even be the operative word, because that implies that he was working towards an end/accomplishment. For Gesshin it was inexplicably different.

In the academy most found that Gesshin was good at fighting. Gesshin found fighting as an efficient means to end a dispute. He came off as the quiet/dark type in class. All he wanted to do was fight or observe. Throughout his days in the Academy Gesshin never asked one question. He found himself near the top of his class. He excelled at almost everything he touched. The major problem noticed early on was his unwillingness to finish fights. When he knew he was better than the opponent he would just stop and leave. This caused him to be looked down upon. Even his classmates, who may have been spared by him, thought he was crazy. Killing seemed so futile to the boy.

Then as you would expect, one day it came down to killing a hallow or dying himself. During the battle he had followed his ordinary custom of stopping once he knew he was stronger. As a result the rest of his squad was killed as the Hallow regained strength. Gesshin was unfazed emotionally by the loss of his companions. Instead it was in that instant that he realized that in some cases, death was necessary. He finished off the Hallow and reported the story in its entirety to his superiors. They thought it was just him taking the death of his companions harshly and taking blame as usually happened. He was commended on his effort. It was shortly after this event that Gesshin was promoted.

Once he made it on a Guardian Squad he worked hard to see what it was all about. It is worth noting that his cohorts actually took a liking to him. He was a realist, and somehow that was relieving to most of his peers. He was no longer that much of a quiet anomaly. His tendencies had changed from where he was when he began the journey. In the squad he steadily ascended.
