~Character Information~Name:Karasu no joō (crow queen) Or just Karasu
GenderFemale
Weight 160lbs
Height7ft 6inches
Age: Roughly 500 or so years
Appearance: A harsh looking crow like woman who is highly regal in looks, Covered mostly in black feathers with a cruel look to its facial features. Always seems shrouded in a evil looking armor. Has four horrid scars in the same spot where Ito was struck by the attack that killed him. Human like hands end her arms while talon like fingernails extend from them. Atop the armor is a loose hanging sky blue kimono the tattered haori of squad 11 hanging on her shouldered stained completely crimson with its former owner's blood. However since it was thought lost when Ito was killed they have since issued a new one.
While standing fairly tall with a lithe figure the venerable crow like woman isn't as hard on the eyes as one would think. Looking rather beautiful and well endowed the one thing that seems striking however is that she can hide her crow like appearence in the guise of a young woman with equivalent markings and a even more regal look about her.
Unlike her former master she clearly doesn't look like a warrior in either full body form though her body hides much of its strength. But has comparable physical strength though its impossible to guess such from looking at her.
Personality: Now that Ito's horribly broken mind is gone Karasu has a rather nice air about her. Though quite scary to look at and still rather stern No longer a harbinger of a long since fallen warrior. But a harbinger of the good that can come from something so evil or tragic. Can be Haughty when addressed in certain ways though since her masters death its unclear just how she will react to others. From what can be picked up its a possibility that she is still grieving for him despite how his presence had twisted her originally into a evil avatar of death.
Without her master she has taken to wandering about soul society and as of her current situation hasn't made any care to interact with others first. Though she does often hang around the squad 11 compound in her masters old room. Or hanging around Tenshi albiet invisible and completely concealed.
Rank: Captain Level (0-0 fully supressed, 3-1 paritally supressed non combat, 4-1 combat shikai and bankai no substantial change in power with release just better control and use of it)

Excellent Reiatsu Control- Gives her the ability to use Kido if she cares to learn it as well as completely hide her exsistence to the point of becoming invisible. Of course the Invisibility is only reiatsu and visual as she can still be found by hitting her out of luck.Or a wide enough attack radius ect.

Effect:While Active Karasu becomes more than just a Zanpakutou Spirit and attains a mastery over the darkness around her to the point she can create "life" from shadows to do her bidding. Upon doing so she creates a being in the image of the shinigami though lacking any free will or awareness of its existence due to being just a puppet made from darkness.Is as powerful as a Seated shinigami normally though a stronger can be created at the cost of how long it can remain stable and not break down. The stronger is about on par with a mid range lieutenant.
Ability Name:Hajime ni shūryō shi, saisho kara saigomade(End to a beginning and Beginning to an end)
Type:Darkness Element
Range:Self
Duration: None
Effect: A method of Self propagation as much so as her strongest power. If used for Self propagation It severs the connection between her and her master being such a ability it can only be used once and only in the event the master is dying or has died but enough life remains for her to perform such. For a attack however the same energies and deep rooted life force powers used to break her free from bondage are channeled through her body for a attack of rather vast energies that can cause death to both sides granted they don't avoid it as the attack itself is extreme close range they have to be touching in some manner via physical body or blades ect for the power transfer to begin.
~History~Shinigami Arc:Much of her existence was with her former master Ito Sengo. While bound to him his presence corrupted her natural nature to a vile evil creature who wished only to kill. While not much else can really be said for the time she was with Ito she guided him albeit in a rather vicious manner. At many times trying to kill him due to the twisted nature she had gained from him. Regardless deep inside her was a part that knew that Ito wasn't completely evil and during the times his presence wasn't as strong she herself could think more clearly.
Her Intent based on her nature was to simply guide and watch over the fallen warrior helping if she could. While keeping her true power away from the man out of fear that he would do something horrible with it. Instead teaching him to harness the passive powers she possessed as his main powers finding that to be a safer solution to the killer that Ito tended to become more often than not.
As his Zanpakutou she watched his interactions and since he lacked any care for control was free to come and go and materialize as she pleased. Usually appearing to get a better view of something or physically reprimand her master. A love hate relationship that was built on respect for each others powers was what the two possessed something that even with his death would remain with her.
Separation Arc:A short time took place between Ito's demise at the hands of a espada. Knowing her master wouldn't survive she began the process to break her bonds with him. The effects of the sinner chain Ito had acquired making the process much easier than expected as it eroded their connection rapidly as it sought to claim what belonged to it.
With a final surge of power that was unnatural beyond anything Karasu had felt she was released fully from Ito leaving behind only a shell of a weapon that would later become twisted into a new blade for the creature Ito would become. Invisible and in grief at losing one she respected even if she did hate him she watched him get dragged through the gate of hell shortly after trying to kill not only the one who killed him but everyone in the area with a extremely powerful cero like blast.
Independence Arc:It hasn't been very long since Karasu was Seperated from Ito. She is still grieving for her masters death though no one knows that she is still around at least not yet. As she has yet to show her self in her current state though not beyond haunting Ito's old office or following around Tenshi. When she was released from her bonds with Ito she also took his Haori unable to completely part with the man she had existed with for so long.
Since she became free she has tried to figure out a good way to reveal her self without getting backlash from others. As they would probably blame her for the death of Sengo. Tenshi more so than others having a better knowledge of his former captains relationship with his Zanpakutou.
RP Sample:As Ito's body is slowly enclosed with the unholy sinners chains from the very weapon he created, Karasu feels her connection with her master slowly decay. Knowing he wouldn't survive he begins procedure to break bonds with him. Despite her sadness of his loss she continues managing to free herself right before he is completely encased with the chains.
"Damn it, your not supposed to die how can you die you arrogant bastard your supposed to be a god," Karasu says softly to herself unable to be heard by the others as she hangs in the air invisible watching her former master become a monster before her eyes and seeing him dragged into the gate.
Crying softly despite knowing that was the final fate to begin with for a man like him she remains watching the events take place in the area and when they leave she follows silently and unseen behind them through the Senkaimon.Distraught with grief she continues to hide herself out of fear of others judgement.
Happy RP'ing everyone
