Hinode Ashin [Rogue]

Basic Information

Name: Hinode Ashin

Age: Looks around 13, is really around 130.

Gender: female

Division: Rogue

Seat: N/A

Looks: Hinode is very small and delicate... Or at least that's what people think when they see her. She has bright blue eyes and long red hair that she usually keeps up. When she lets her hair down it hangs just past her ribcage. She stands about five feet tall and weighs about nintey pounds, which is why people mistakenly think that she's not much of a threat.

She typicly wears a black kimono with a blue dot on each shoulder. Her sword is carried in her sash, which is blue. On her wrist she has a little bracelet with a tiny white conch shell on it.



Personality: Hinode is well... Stubborn, to say the least. She refuses to go on orders she doesn't agree with or doesn't understand, which is part of why she doesn't belong to the sereitei anymore. She's a loyal friend, and she won't break a promise unless she knows keeping it will cause more damage. She doesn't like to pick fights, she finds them troublesome in most senario's.

Zanpakuto Information

Zanpakuto Name: Konshu (Conch)

Zanpakuto Looks: Konshu is a seemingly ordinary zanpakutou, but on close inspection the guard has an extremely intricate design (See below). The blade is fairly short, just under 38 inches. It's like a reflection of Hinode who, reguardless of her delicate appearence, is fairly strong.


Zanpakuto Description: (Uhm... This confuses me... O_O It cuts stuff?)

Released Zanpakuto Description: Without the flute on the end, Konshu can only cut stuff. By playing the shell flute on the end of her sword, Hinode can manipulate water which pours from the open end of the flute as she plays. She has two variated abilities:

Uzu: Water pours from her flute as she plays and circles the target creating a whirlpool that can force an enemy to the ground, leaving them at the mercy of her blade (ASSUMING she means to kill someone). She can create two of these whirlpools at once, although this divides the power into halves. Unfortunately if it doesn't catch the target dead center then it's the same as splashing them with water.

Mizu yari: By playing a quick, sharp note on her shell flute Hinode can create a blast of water that is extremelly dense and sharp. It's very thin and can peirce steel. Of course, if she misses her target then it doesn't do much good. This is typicly used to break an oponent's sword as opposed to actually killing for that reason.

Another use for the shell, is when swinging her sword the shell will also go flying, and can be used as a bludgeoning weapon. Luckily for Hinode, she's very agile and can easily avoid being struck down by her own weapon by moving in the correct forms.
Zanpakuto Release Phrase: Listen Konshu

Released Zanpakuto Looks: Konshu becomes a two foot long katana with a guard that closely resembles a conch shell. Attached is a long braided string, about two feet long, and attached to it is a small conch flute. Although it seems superfluous it's actually an important part of her zanpakutou.

Zanpakuto Spirit: Konshu is a mermaid. A tiny, tiny mermaid, but still a mermaid. She's only about two feet long, with a blue tail and long silver hair. She has striking violet eyes and blue headfins that are about six inches long. Much like Hinode, she seems very delicate. She wears a silky white wrapping that covers her entire torso and ties behind her in a bow.

Her personality is very similar to Hinode, and the two get along very easily when in Konshu's realm... Excluding when Hinode learned Konshu's name and "insulted" Konshu's realm.

Zanpakuto Realm: Konshu's realm is underwater in a coral reef littered with shells, a large conch sits in the middle. Even though it feels, looks, and physicly implies that Hinode is underwater and should be drowing while in this realm, it is actually easy enough for Hinode to breathe.

History: Hinode was one of the unfortunate souls to end up in rukongai district 80. Because she seemed so small and fragile, many people who saw her decided she would get herself killed sooner or later. Others saw her as an easy way to vent out frustration and she was attacked by a group of thugs. The result of the assault was the ones who attacked her on the ground and her walking away without a scratch, only to be stopped by a shinigami who told her that she might be able to become a shinigami herself, judging by her reiatsu. The prospect wasn't too exciting to her, but she did see it as a way that she could meet the one who passed her over to soul society before a hollow could get to her and thank him.

Even though she was small, and didn't have an exceptional talent for kidou, she had her surprising strength and exceptional swordsmanship to help carry her through the shinigami academy. When she was in the shinigami academy, she didn't really have very many friends, well... She had one anyway. This happened to be her best friend, and even after the two became shinigami they remained friends.

Another friend she had, was her zanpakutou. Reguardless of their initial misunderstanding of Konshu's inner realm, Hinode soon found that they had a lot in common, including their need to think through orders. Often times Hinode would hear the voice of her zanpakutou spirit, advising her on what to check up on before actions were taken.

Shortly after Hinode became a shinigami, her friend died -or rather, was executed, leaving a hole in Hinode's heart. At this point she had learned to use her shikai appropriately, and had a small ability in kidou, enough to know she didn't need to stay in the sereitei anymore. She knew that her friend had been executed unfairly and refused to serve in such a barbaric community. When she left, she knew that she was making an enemy but staying could have been even worse for her sanity. For fifty years she has been gone from the sereitei, avoiding its shinigami and keeping a low profile. She didn't hold resentment for anyone personally that may be sent after her although she did hold resentment for the sixth division's seated officials.

She trains consistently, even though she doesn't have anyone to impress. She can usually be found on lakes and such, an old habit from before she died. Oddly enough, many people who knew this seemed to withhold this information despite Hinode's desertion. She was never a difficult person to get along with, and many beleived that she would make a dangerous enemy do to her ability to make decisions on the spot and her persistence. More still beleived that she wouldn't be too much of a threat do to her docile nature, and decided to leave her alone.

RP Sample: Konshu stood in front of a lake in the real world. She had been sent on a guard mission after only a couple of weeks as a shinigami. Soon she would return to Soul Society and she would make her point about her friend's wrongful prosicution. But before that, she needed the help of another friend. "I want to know about you... Your name, your face... All of it... Everything... Somehow... You're a part of me right? So please... Who are-" Suddenly her eyes widened as the worldaround her began to change to an aquatic coral reef. She thought the water would soon fill her lungs as she heard a voice that was perfectly clear despite being beneath the water.
"Open your mouth and breathe, you'll be fine." The voice was soft and sweet, very much like a flute. Hinode's hands held her nose shut as she worried about drowning when her feet felt plastered to the coral beneath her. No matter how badly she wanted to jump and land on the surface, her legs wouldn't move. "Are you listening to me? BREATHE!"
Hinode wanted to scream at the voice, and she did. "If I breathe I'll di- oh wait..." She took a deep breath, only to find that the water was being filtered out with every breath she took, the oxygen she needed was entering her lungs as the color slowly began to return to her face. She looked up, seeing a mermaid. "Are you my zanpakutou?"
The tiny mermaid looked annoyed. "Don't 'are you my zanpakutou' me! You nearly suffocated because you wouldn't listen to me!"
Hinode's eyes were wide for a moment as she processed her enviroment. She looked into the eyes of the tiny mermaid, a thought seeming to be shot through each of their minds as the two glances locked the two in some sort of telepathic communication. "So... You're... Konshui?"
The mermaid entered a moment of chibi furry and whacked Hinode in the head with her powerful and beautiful tail with scales that sparkled like crystals. "KONSHU! It's KONSHU! CONCH! CONCH!"
Hinode looked at the furious zanpakutou spirit of a tiny mermaid and smiled, slightly. "Just checking..." She laughed slightly as the aquatic world began to fade away and she had to know. "So what is it then..." She drew her sword, holding it up in front of her. "That you..." The sword turned so the blade pointed up to the sky. "Are? Listen Konshu." The small blade began to grow and Hinode looked at the flute on the end, knowing she had acheived a brilliant tool. "Let's be comrades Konshu-san."
