Axel Iyaku [Approved]- John

Basic Information

Name: Axel Iyaku

Age: Appeared Age: 18, Actual Age: 275

Gender: Male

Division: 12

Seat: Captain of Squad 12

Looks:Axel Iyaku: Master Scientist
Axel looks as if he were 18, and it shows with him being 6,3 in height and looking as if he were in top physical shape. He has two black eyes, and has a six pack when seen with his shirt off. He has one scar which is oddly shaped like the symbol for infinity at the back base of his neck. He keeps his zanpaktou on his right side as he is ambidextrous. Under the standard shinigami uniform, Axel wears a tight black t-shirt which has the symbol of pi on it. In his gigai, Axel wears a plain black t-shirt with tight black jeans and white sneakers.

Personality: Hotheaded, stubborn, and charismatic are the three words that define Axel Iyaku best. He refuses to listen to anyone unless they are close to him, and has a short temper with people who try and order him around. He does this to try and prevent anyone from getting too close to him. He is very rude, caring nothing about ranks but only cares deeply about his research. He has a very low patience, often getting annoyed at people who bother him. As he is more than likely the smartest person in Soul Society, he is extremely stubborn and never admits when he is wrong. Some good qualities about him is that despite his cold exterior, he is very very kind and will fight anyone who threatens anybody. He also has a passion for fun, choosing to joke around or play tricks when he isn't doing any research or working. He has a soft spot for girls in which he does anything for them, acting as if he doesn't want to. He is very good friends with Riku Tenkei and Kai Karasu, often having fun with them, often at their own expenses. However, Axel has a reputation of being partially insane when it comes to his research. He will often smile at the prospect of test subjects and usually fights his hardest to gain one. He has his infamous quotes of 'in the name of science' or 'your simply not smart enough'.

Zanpakuto Information

Zanpakuto Name: Fuwa

Zanpakuto Looks: Fuwa Sealed

Zanpakuto Description: It has no special abilities except for the fact that it is longer than other sealed zanpakto, giving him a slight ranged advantage.

Released Zanpakuto Description: Axel's zanpakto is an odd, yet useful ability to control friction. Like the Captain of Squad 9, his friend and partner, Axel can influence the his ability in a 500 meter radius. This becomes extremely useful in close ranged combat, as Axel is not affected by it and he can have the opponent slip and slide all over the place. This makes fighting Axel very tough as opponents find it hard to use flash-steps, swing a sword or even stopping in time. Axel can also increase friction to slow enemies down and deliver devastating blows to them. He can use this ability to make it seem as if his opponents are moving incredibly slow. This effectively gives Axel control of the fight as it's hard to hold onto anything or even move without slipping up.

Zanpakuto Release Phrase: Gain Control, Fuwa

Released Zanpakuto Looks: Fuwa Unleashed

Zanpakuto Spirit: Fuwa~Spirit

Zanpakuto Realm: The realm of Axel's zanpakto is an odd one where everything seems to move in slow motion. The realm is constantly in night, and appears as a hustling bustling city save for the slow motion part. There are many skyscrapers in the city, the main one is where Axel and Fuwa show up on is a huge building, thousands of feet into the air. The moon is shaped as a crescent and it's a cloudy night in this realm. The laws of physics do not apply to this world of course as Axel ca jump from building to building and even float in mid air.


Bankai Information

Bankai Description: In Kyousei Fuwa Shihai, Axel's friction control increases by leaps and bounds in bankai. The area of effect increases to 750 meters, and he gains ultimate control over friction in that area. He is able to negate friction completely, making it so a strong gust will have his opponent sliding around a place or he can increase it so that it will seem that his opponent could hardly move. He also can use it to his own joy now, being able to slide around as if his feet were skates and can even run up a wall with little problems. He gains a sort of secondary ability to fire off blue whip like reiatsu which actually wears the body. Similar to how a metal wheel will wear with continued use due to friction, this is the same process not only causing damage but breaking down and making a zanpakto or other weapons weaker. The whip will travel with the swords making it very hard to avoid considering the circumstances. Besides these abilities, Axel's speed increases ten-fold including his thought speed so he can produce hundreds of strategies in a simple second. His speed is incredible, being able to match the best flash-step masters in this form.

Bankai Looks: His zanpakto remains the same for the most part, however the blade turns black and he'll gain another teal colored scimitar.

Alterations: Axel changes alot during his bankai, for one part his scimitar blade turns black, and he gains another teal blue scimitar. Secondly his eyes will have a blue aura around them which sort of gives off a glowing effect. He will gain a black cape with a red lining and the cape as the divisions flower on the back.

History and RP sample

History:
Axel Iyaku was born in the Soul Society, more specifically the 80th district in South Rukongai. Back then, his name was to be Kimora Yaiba, and it was thought that he would live his entire life out in there. His "father" live his life in Rukongai by killing and stealing his fellow citizens, making sure he did it in the more peaceful districts as to avoid suspicion. His "mother" was a sickly young woman whom detested Kimora's father but could do nothing about it. So as a baby, his mother being sick and all, Kimora's father had to bring him along for his job. Here, he would gain the name Axel Iyaku as a joke from daddy. After killing someone with his classic spear, the guy dropped his name tag which he proceeded to pick up and give to Kimora who giggled.

Thus from that day, Kimora Yaiba would be known as Axel Iyaku. He would grow up to be quite the trouble maker, often coming up with terrible accusations when people were close to his father's doings. Thus he managed to have his father save each and everytime until one time, his father decided to try and get someone from his own district. Unfortunately, that someone happened to be a shinigami who was following up on a false hollow report. The shinigami instantly killed his father as soon as he was attacked right in front of young Axel's eyes. The shinigami then took notice of Axel and decided to try and gain rank by getting another person to join the shinigami academy.

Still having the appearance of a child in the Shinigami Academy, was thought to not succeed at all while in there. Axel however would prove them wrong, excelling in swordsmanship, kido, and hoho. The fact that he was still very young showed that he was a prodigy, and that his time in the 80th district was wrong. After 50 years, Axel was moved into the 11th district and he seemed to stop aging at 18. He was moved to the 11th district since he excelled in kido, he needed is swordsman ship skills to surpass that one day. Thus, Axel spent a large amount of time with the 11th division, often fighting with them since he knew kido.

At his 105 year, he fought his first ever hollow, defeating it with the Black Coffin spell in front of another captain. This incredible use of kido prompted the captain to ask for Axel's switch to another, more suitable group of someone of his caliber. However, most of the groups were fine with the exception of the 12th division which were losing members due to them focusing on research instead of combat. Thus, Axel was made the 5th seat of the 12 division where his true talent really shown, his incredible mind.

In the 12th division, Axel showed why he was able to excel in everything making him look like a prodigy. It would seem that Axel was of incredible intellect, grasping concepts and ways to do things in any situation. This was the reason why Axel was the excellent swordsman, great kido user, and adept hoho user he was today. The current 12th division captain, impressed with Axel's skills, allowed him to become the Vice-President of the Shinigami Research and Development Institute. This would later harm the captain as Axel used this opportunity to study other shinigami ad learn how they fought and studied multiple shikai & bankai. Soon, Axel learned the name of his zanpakto through this method and would become lieutenant of the 12th division.

Once the current captain decided to become promoted to the Royal Guard, Axel finally displayed what he's been holding back for the past 50 years, the fact that he knew bankai as well. By keeping his bankai secret, Axel was able to stay i the 12th division and come up with many chemicals and poisons, as well as antidotes. However, if he revealed it too soon he would more than likely have been shifted somewhere else. Thus, Axel showed how truly smart he was, being able to deceive all of the Central 46, to his advantage.

As captain, Axel focused on finding out how to cure his mother of her disease. While doing this Axel managed to befriend Kai Karasu as well as Riku Tenkei. Now 275 years old, Axel has taken an oath to find the cure as his mother doesn't have much time. To that extent, Axel has captured various arrancar and hollows, experimenting on them to find the cure. Thus, to them he is now known as Axel The Mad.

RP Sample:
The sounds of nightmarish screams of arrancar & hollow could be heard all though Axel's lab. The scene was an absolutely sickening one as disfigured hollows and arrancars floating in giants jars filled with green fluids could be seen. The entire room was lit in an eerie, red light which barely showed anything from the outside. The floor was wet and sticky, as if something had spilled onto the metal floors. The walls were stained with red blood and This was the lab of Axel Iyaku, the genius of Soul Society and to his enemies, Axel The Mad. On top of a table laid an arrancar, bloody, mask broken and restricted via kido 63 by Axel's friend, Kai Karasu. Next to him was Axel Iyaku, Captain of Squad 12 and new President of the Shinigami Research and Development Institute. He wore a white lab coat as he wouldn't dare get his clothes messed up. He poked and prodded the arrancar's head, slowly slicing the upper part of the head. At this point, Kai made a gagging sound, causing the teenage looking face of Axel to stare at him oddly.

"Kai my dearest friend, this is science at it's finest. I have to examine this guys brain or else I'll never know why it's immune to disease like the rest of us."

Axel said, tilting his head and giving a creepy smile made even crepier the way the light player with his black and white hair. His smile turned to a grin as Axel threw away the small scalpel he was using in favor of his prized Fuwa, that zanpakto of his. Grinning, Axel slowly cut the forehead with it as the arrancar screamed in terror as Axel did more research in the name of science.
