~Zanpakuto Information~Name: Khione
Appearance: Khione is a Tanto type Zanpakuto. It's small though, comparable to a dagger in size and shape. It is bland, boring, and holds very few marks of identification, for Valintine likes it that way. The blade itself is silver as the moon and the handle is dark as night. The only unique thing about this Zanpakuto is that despite it's size it has a handle guard that is perfectly form fitting for Valintine's hands alone.
Type: N/A
~Shikai Information~Appearance Once his Shikai is released, Valintine's sword goes through a complete transformation. Upon speaking his Call Out Command, his blade seems to look as if it were covered in snow. While this happens, the whole sword seems to grow in length, especially the hilt. He then hits his sword on the floor, the snow flakes falling from the sword to the ground in one smooth move.
After this is done, his swords appearance has finally complete. The hilt is now around thirty centimeters long, although still usable with one hand. The hilt is now black, with several icy circles wrapping around it. They are proportioned perfectly to fit Val's hands, be it he is wielding it with one hand or with two.
With no guard, the hilt leads straight on to the blade. The whole blade seems to be made of ice, although its cutting potential is higher than steel. As such, the whole blade is a light shade of blue. Close to the hilt the ice is shaped in such a way it appears to be both a symbol and a decoration. This tends to make the sword appear in the same shape as any other of its kind, however, two spikes cut out from the bottom of the blade. These can be used as an additional cutting too as well as the blade.
Abilities:Flash Freeze -
- Spoiler:
Shunpo works by manipulation of reishi under the user's feet. Mixed in with his naturally cold reiatsu and he can solidify the pressure to become actual ice. This isn't like Khione's ice that will freeze you, but it can penetrate and cause some heavy damage if you're not careful. The ice that forms is small and shoots out all around him. They look like needles to people who can see them. They onyl go as far as his Chill's radius is. After that they basically melt instantly regardless of weather.
Chill-
- Spoiler:
There is always a five foot radius of cold weather that surrounds Valintine's body when his Zanpakuto is released. This area is calledh is Chill. It is cold enough to cause the area around him to snow as water moves through the air. The purpose of this zone though is not pretty snow. Those who are present in the Chill for long enough will begin to suffer from Hypothermia. After two posts of being inside this zone, one will begin to shake violently as they body temperature drops. After three tops you will become disoriented and confused, possibly losing sense of what is going on around you. After four posts you will have lost all feelings in your limbs, fingers, and toes. Once five posts have passed you will have full blown Hypothermia. In order to reverse the effects you must be outside of the zone for half the posts you were inside of it. Once it hits five posts though, it's irreversable. Your tempetrature is too far gone to go back up without medical or supernatural means (i.e. If you had a fire zanpakuto that surrounded you in fire, or some such thing.) However even with those thigns, the air around Valintine is too cold to actively sustain a fire or heat source.
Snow -
- Spoiler:
With a swipe, or thrust, of his blade, Valintien can create more snow. How much snow he can create is limited only by how much energy he has on hand. Even so, he can create millions upon millions of snowflakes with ease and still go on to fight. This isn't because he has an immense about of reiryoku in his system, though he does, it's because the burden of making snow is split between him and Khione. It is Khione's energy that provides the snow flakes with it's attributes, and it is Valintine's energy that gives it physical form. The snow and ice he controls is his without fail, meaning through no supernatural, technological, or natural means can his control be disputed, challenged, or fail. This snow is gifted in that it is incredibly cold, cold enough to defend himself from fire based attacks, be they natural or supernatural or technological, neutralizing them in a matter of seconds. This is done through a special process of heat removal. Thus, the more heat the snow comes into contact with, the stronger it becomes. Having no heat, and having a ton of heat result in the same effect; very deadly snow. This snow is directed with his blade. It's response time is less than .1 seconds. The snow moves at rather fast speeds, but is limited by how much he is trying to move at one time (not the sum of all the snow moving, just he total snow he is moving in that grouping. Meaning he could have three piles, and all three piles will move at various speeds). The snow also holds the property of being something like razor blades. Incredibly sharp, and highly compressed, razor blades. This compression of energy into a single "saw" like object makes Khione ideal for dealing with barriers, shields, or an Arrancar's skin. Not only is it sharp though but it can freeze. It's freezing potential is minimal at this stage in the game though, even under the effects of Chill. It would take a large amount of snow to freeze a person's limb as well as about two posts of continuous exposure.
Ability Name: Avalanche
Type: Ranged
Range: 50 meters
Duration: 1 post
This is said to be Valintine's strongest ability in his Shikai state. Firstly, he manipulates the snow he has created into a whirlwind around the opponent. If they try to escape from the sides, the snow will cut and freeze them on contact. Shortly after this has initiated, Methias appears above the whirling mass of snow and swings his sword. A large cresent wave of snow is then created, shooting towards the floor of the creation. If contact is made, the opponent is literally crushed by three tons of pressure. However, if the opponent gets out of the top before Valintine gets there, they will be able to completely avoid any damage. As well as this, the attack can be dodged while inside, but it is considerably difficult. Also mind that this ability mixed in with Valintine's speed makes it a deadly thing to avoid.
Ability Name: Shell of Ice
Type: Shield
Range: Self
Duration: 1 post
A simple technique using the Manipulation of his Snow to great effect. He firstly utilizes the Shikai's ability, in order to create the snow to fuel the attack. As he does, it stops just a meter away from him and forms a wall. This wall or shell that can protect against Kido up to level 40 if a wall, and level 33 if a shell. Attacks made above this level are weakened by that amount.
Ability Name: Defile
Type: Ranged
Range: 360 radius, 100 meters
Duration: 1 post
Methias swings his sword towards the ground, stopping just before he hits the floor. Upon doing so, the snow he has created begins to circle him. He then proceeds to lift his blade in the air, and thrust it into the ground. The snow is then shot randomly, all around him. This could, potentially, be more damaging than 'Avalanch'. However, because the attack is made to attack in multiple directions, an opponent will never feel the full power of this attack.
~Bankai Information~Appearance - Spoiler:
Upon activating his bankai, Valintine become encased in ice. Moments later the ice will begin to crack and shake violently. With an explosion that can cause major damage to those not prepared, both friend and foe, snow and ice will fire off, raining down upon those in the area. Valintine will stand there in new clothes (as bankai does not change one's physical appearance). He wears a tight white sleeveless vest. It is armored though, but the material it is made from is very flexible, which allows for him to be able to move freely. His pants are tight around his hips, causing them and the vest to look like one thing. As they move down his legs they flair out though. The right side of his pants are are black, and the left side is white. He has a piece of cloth that hangs down over his left leg, which reaches his feet. The cloth is a shade of gray. His shoes are black on the left side, and white on the right. He has on a pair of gloves as well. The gloves are incredibly soft despite their leather look. The left glove is black, and the right glove is white.
The snow that is around him is enough to pile up to between his ankles and calves when stacked around him. So it's a fair amount to start with.
The sword itself is of a high level design. The blade seems to be both strong and light, a perfect combination for battle. The blades length is around one hundred and twenty centimeters, with a thickness of around fifteen. As such, it is a relatively large weapon, allowing for both effective defense and offense. The center of the blade is engraved with several markings upon a blue surface. These markings are said to have the ability to create snow that is so deadly that it would simply create death. The hilt, however elegant the blade is, is truly a work of art. It is black, with several gold rings wrapping around the wielders hand. These rings make for an effective defense and allow for more control over the blades weight (Works like a counter balance). The bottom of the blade is also decorated with a golden design, continuing to spiral around until the four points meet at the bottom.
Abilities:Chill -
- Spoiler:
The effects of Chill have not changed, but the range has doubled.
Synergy -
- Spoiler:
Valintine can dismiss his blade, causing it to turn into snow. This will allow Valintine complete mental control of the snow around him, able to direct it with his hands to make the reaction time less than .001 seconds. Directing it with his mind makes the snow with a response time of 1.0 seconds. Despite the delay it does allow for Valintine to catch enemies off guard more easily. He can form a replica of his Zanpakuto blade from the snow to create more snow if need be as well.
Special Ability -
- Spoiler:
Val's abilities tend to stay the same, with the obvious power increases that take place from Shikai to Bankai. The snow that is created could now completely freeze an entire opponent while before it would be hard to freeze a limb. Cutting power has increased. The blade itself is lighter. It retains all special properties unless stated otherwise in another ability listed here.
Ability Name: Kyousei Avalanch (Great Avalanch)
Type: S.A.B.
Range: S.A.B.
Duration: S.A.B.
The Bankai form of Val's technique "Avalanch". The set up remains the same, however, the snow that is created in the whirlwind is much stronger, and has the potential to completely freeze limbs with ease. When he appears above, he swings his sword three times. Each time, a crescent wave of snow crushes down towards the target. These blasts EACH generate six tons of pressure, or eighteen tons if all three hit.
Ability Name: Kyousei Shell of Ice
Type: S.A.B.
Range: S.A.B.
Duration: S.A.B.
The Bankai form of Methias' technique "Shell of Ice". Once the shell is created, it can now stop Kido up to level 70 as a wall, and level 63 as a dome. Attacks above this level are weakened by an amount equal to this amount.
Ability Name: Truth
Type: Self Enhancement
Range: Self
Duration: 4 posts
The user firstly places his hand at the bottom of the blade. Moving their fingers across the blade, the markings appear on the blade once more. Upon doing so, the users abilities are increased to a heightened state, tapping into the true power of The Frozen God. The snow that is created can literally cut through steel, meaning it could effective destroy the body of any race. Kyousei Avalanch's pressure is now doubled (From six tons to twelve per slash). Kyousei Shell of Ice can now stop Kido up to level 88. Chill's radius is increased to 20 feet, and hypothermia will set in within 3 posts with the effects that would happen at a later date setting in almost instantly. While it doesn't last too long, the time that it is active will push people to their limits. After it's use Valintine cannot access this particular power again for another five posts.
Ability Name: Khione
Type: Summoning
Range: N/A
Duration: 8 posts
Valintine can channel Khione into the very snow that they create. This allows Khione to inhabit the snow in three different entities. The are made of snow but have a core of ice, making their hits rather nasty. They are impossible to truly kill as they will come back an endless amount of times. They can take an infinite amount of damage before falling. The only way to get a breather from them is to slice off their heads. At which point it will be one post until that particular copy can revive itself. Khione can use Shunpo, but not kido. It has no Zanpakuto but can form spiritual weapons from the snow around it. Khione only has access to Shikai level techniques. These beings are creatures all unto themselves. Valintine has no control over them, but they are Valintine's partners. Because they are made up of Khione and Khione's snow, it means that even another snow/ice user, or a water user, wouldn't be able to force them under their control. Khione can take any shape or form he pleases during the 8 posts he is active.
~Spirit Information~Appearance: - Spoiler:
Personality: Khione's personality annoys Riox to be entirely honest. Khione is a trickster and enjoys taking on many many forms. But the one listed above seems to be his favorite or maybe it's his real form, honestly Riox has no idea. Khione's name is for a female, but he insists that he loves it all the same. Especially because it confuses people. Khione loves to dance around questions rather than answer them head on and vastly prefers to just not answer a question at all! He's more content talking in riddles and circles until the person who asked the question either gives up or forgets what they asked.
Inner World:Khione’s inner world takes the form of what seems to be an endless City. This city however is without life and darkness reigns in this place. The night’s moon is replaced by a solar eclipse that others would go blind from seeing, but Riox is fine. Khione is often seen standing atop of the tallest building in the city. This is where most of his meetings with Riox take place whenever they come across each other. The city is filled with your typical establishments, this includes. Cars, traffic lights, stores, police station, Casinos, jewellery stores the works. All of these establishments seem to have life within them. This allows Riox to treat it as an everyday occurrence, somewhere that the normal people would live. This place can easily turn into a warzone, whenever Khione decides its time to whip Riox into place. The tallest building which Khione stands on directly overshadows a Zoo. It is thought, that it is from this place he obtained the raven that he is often in the company of.
Note: The snow and ice is pure. Making it non-conductive of electricity.
Happy RP'ing everyone
