Name: Wasei Kuu
Age: 150
Gender: Female
Personality:
Skill Level: Swordsmanship: Advanced
Skill Level: Shunpou: Advanced
Skill Level: Hand-to-hand: Intermediate
History/Background:
Age: 150
Gender: Female
Personality:
Kuu is a laid back, who can get along with people, and go along for the ride, though her social abilities are lacking when they get to the proverbial and/or literal destination. It's certainly rare she shows enthusiasm for anything, but it happens. It's almost never for the same thing twice, though.Appearance:
Her laid back mentality causing her to follow her sister was the main reason she went to the same squad.
She enjoys a good drink, song, and a good meal, and usually has women on her mind. Those women are mainly Kyuuten, Umi, and Kaiyou. Some might wonder what she's thinking about when she thinks of them, but they're often left to simply wonder.
Truth be told, there's a strong love between Kuu, and Umi, and they are very close to each other. She adores her sister and will protect her. This stems from spending so much time together.
As far as her sister goes, she's sort of the angel on her shoulder thanks to Kuu being levelheaded most of the time, though the chaotic streak in Kuu can have her swept up in the waves of Umi's actions, and they bear down with something akin to the forces that weather mountains away that they are named after.
The chaotic streak can lead to other paths, but if she knew what they were, it wouldn't be chaotic, would it?
Kuu has a rebellious streak in her, though some wonder how deep it really runs since she does her assignments without much problem.
She's surprisingly vain, though she does doesn't go out of her way to look made up, wearing, at most, some lipstick, rather she takes some pride in her natural beauty.
She stands 5'5" and weighs 115 lbs. She has a breast size of D, so they are quite noticeable, and large, but not a match for Matsumoto's.Zanpakuto Spirit:
Her figure is slender, and athletic as she keeps herself ready for combat.
Her hair is long, and a dark shade of green. Her forehead is covered by nearly trimmed bangs, but other than that her hair falls almost as it may in front of her ear, over her ear, etc. Her hair is long enough to reach her inner thighs, easily.
Speaking of, she has magnificent legs which are often hidden by her hakama.
She has green eyes that almost match the tint of her hair, and these eyes are usually quite expressive, but usually graced with a defiant feel when one looks into them.
She typically wears the standard Shinigami uniform, however, she prefers a gambler's style in wearing her kimono with her right arm completely out of her kimono which would expose at least one breast if it were not for the sarashi that is wrapped around her torso in a shape similar to a tube top that keeps her modest, though her cleavage is readily visible.
She wears her Zanpauto in one of two positions, depending on her mood, either at the small of her back in a ninja-esque style, or at her side in a traditional manner. Sometimes she'll carry her sword by the chord wrapped about the scabbard. Regardless of how the sword is carried, it's there for a right handed draw.
Kyuuten (Ten for short) is the embodiment of the Sky itself.Sealed Zanpakuto:
She appears as a woman standing 5'8" with extremely long, flowing dark green hair with feathers of various birds braided into her hair. She has soft, pale skin like a cloud with the sun behind it.
Her eyes are as blue as te sky. Strikingly so, in fact.
Her dress hugs her voluptuous body oh so nicely and is seemingly made of the fabric of the sky in color, and superfine texture.
She longs to embrace her twin, Kaiyou, and often drives Kuu to be closer to Umi so it is more likely to happen. She is nearly obsessed with this, but is patient, and considerate enough to not interfere too heavily into Kuu's life.
She treats Kuu almost as well as she treats Kaiyou as she is an affectionate zanpakuto spirit, but remains fiercely loyal to Kuu, Umi and thoroughly to Kaiyou.
When not pining after Kaiyou, she is as chaotic as the wind. Yes, there's well known currents of wind, but outside of those, you never know what the wind will do.
The inner world is the sky. Those who have a fear of falling, or a fear of heights need not apply as the floor one stands on is completely invisible as if one walks on air. Below one can see a random civilization, though this has no real meaning to the world outside, or anyone that visits. A common civilization, below, is a circular, white, walled city with a tall central spire, though it looks far smaller thanks to staggering heights. The buildings are about the only discernible feature, short of the land and water along the shore.
Ten usually stays on a small island palace made of solidified clouds with a posh throne, and cloud made statues of Kaiyou that decorate the open palace. Ten fancies herself an artist thanks to this, but her art is severely limited as she works with only one subject in mind.
The sky reflects her mood going from sunny to any time of day, or nigh, to most any atmospheric weather condition save ones directly related to water.
Sealed Zanpakuto: A ninja-to with a straight, 24 inch highly polished, low friction, light blue blade with a hamon that looks like a wind's depiction in Asian art, looking like billowing clouds. The tang of the blade reaches straight to the pommel of the weapon inside the hilt. The tip is sharply angled, and similar to a Katana's in geometry making it a potent stabbing weapon.Shikai Description:
The collar of the blade is gold in coloration, shaped typically in a roughly squared shape that secures the guard in place with the hilt. It's engraved with the Kanji for Wind on one side, and Sea on the other.
The ninja-to has a squared, black matte guard with slightly concave curves making the corners taper into sharper points. It's decorated with an Asiatic wind, and water ornamentation made of inlaid mother of pearl which sharply contrasts the black metal. Amongst the mother of pearl ornamentation are a pair of stylized women reaching for one another arranged in a yin/yang formation with water specifically around one, and wind, the other as if in an endless chase of one another. The guard itself is a few centimeters thick, and is easily durable enough to withstand prolonged combat.
The grip is 12 inches long, easily long enough for two hands. The grip is covered with white rayskin leather and further covered in braided, light blue silk, and pegged with gold colored metal rods holding the weapon together.
The pommel is gold colored like many of the fittings with a smaller version of the guard's design, but merely inscribed into it.
The Scabbard is black, and longer than the blade by 12 inches, and is resilient enough to be used as a bludgeon in a pinch. It has a light blue sash tied to the weapon that travels over half the length of the sword. Said sash starts from from 2 inches from the throat of the scabbard where the knob that holds the chord to the scabbard to 2 feet where it's tied off again. It's loose on the scabbard allowing for it to carry things.
The scabbard has a slender chord on it made of light blue silk which is wrapped around several times into an ornate double looped knot.
The mouth of the scabbard is gilded on a gold tone, and firmly holds the sword in when sheathed, and is paired with a gold end cap.

Umi and Kuu share an eerie bond between them. Able to always be able to locate the other, anticipate each other's moves and even able to communicate on a basic level without words.This bond makes it appear as they are moving with one mind rather as two separate people.
When the Shikai form is activated the sword becomes surrounded by a 3ft ball shaped cocoon of luminescent wind that obscures the view of it for a few moments. When the wind is gone what is there is a 1ft long ornate flute with mouth piece that resembles a bird's head which leads to a shaft that looks much like the hilt of her ninja-to, wrapped in a light blue chord.Shikai Abilities:
The end of the flute abruptly leads to a sprouting of a fan made of long, light blue, slightly overlapping feathers that reach 2 ft, and spread 2ft wide in total making it semi circular in shape. Reiatsu makes these feather stiff, and sharp edged allowing it to be used as a slashing weapon, a bludgeon, a small shield, and of course, a fan.
The feathers are held in place by golden faux feathers that somewhat represent the tail of the bird, and they spread similarly, but only reach 6 inches, save a central feather that reaches 1ft, and is very much a blade. Each faux feather has a mirrored design on the other side as they wrap about the base of the fan.
Name: Air BallBankai Description:
Description: A momentary note from her flute can summon an orb of air that travels at the target. Explodes in a blast of wind on impact, or on command. Explosions from this ability do not affect her allowing her to create a concussive blast around her, or a series of them. These orbs charge in moments.
Range: The orbs travel at speeds rivaling a cero, and have a similar diameter of 3 feet. The range is 100 feet. When detonated the diameter of the blast is 10 feet. The force is concussive, and pushes away as opposed to cutting.
Limitations: If she uses one orb, she can freely use another orb in the next post. If she uses 2 orbs, she must wait until a post after has passed. If she uses 3, then 2 posts musts pass, and so on until 6 are used and 5 posts must pass before she can use the ability again. Of course this ability is only as strong as she is.
Name: Wind's Roar
She summons a powerful horizontal vortex of air via wave of her fan that tears at anyone caught in it with air blades, and tries to blow them away from her in a wild spiral. Further the loud roar of the wind attempts to deafen anyone caught in it's path provided their reiatsu does not dull it out.
Range: The diameter of the tornado quickly reaches 10 feet, and reaches 100 meters. If used indoors, this wind blast conforms to the interior, or blows away the building if it's made of flimsy materials. I.E. Thin wood, paper.
Note: This ability can combine with Mizu Yari and when combined can guide the spear for better accuracy. Only when combined with Mizu Yari can the direction of this ability be altered, but it cannot be altered sharply. The attack power combines similar to Cero Sincretio.
Limitations: It lasts 8 seconds, and she must be immobile for the duration of this ability. The ability has a 10 post cool down. Alone this ability cannot be redirected. She must remain immobile regardless of using this ability solo or tandem. This ability is only as powerful as she is. It will be hard pressed to bother people above her tier. However, when combined with Mizu Yari, the affects, and power of both their attacks are combined.
While she can end the maneuver prematurely, she does not get a reduced cooldown.
Name: Suko-rushiroi (White Squall)
Description: Hand in hand, Umi and Kuu call for the most destructive combination of sky and sea; a white squall. Umi and Kuu both release an incredible amount of reiatsu. Umi's reiatsu comes in the form of a maelstrom of water, enough to fill a decent sized lake. Kuu's reiatsu comes in the form of gale force winds that reach speeds of 250 mph. Kuu uses the wind to draw up Umi's maelstrom into a deadly cyclone that reaches from the ground to the sky with a base capable of stretching a maximum size of 200 ft. The destructive force is incredible for anyone foolish enough to get trapped within it as it is the force of a wall of water being moved at dangerous speeds.
Range: 250 MPH (speed) 200 FT (Base of Cyclone)
Drawback: This Ability can only be performed with Kuu, and Umi holding hands and they have to keep holding hands throughout the use. Once that hold is broken, the ability ends. The amount of reiatsu used is enough that it reseals their Zanpakuto and neither blade can be Released again for the next 4 posts.

History/Background:
Born within brief seconds between them, even at young ages the two girls Umi and Kuu seemed connected. When one cried the other cried, when one laughed the other laughed, and so on and so on. This remains true until the age of 18. Sadly, they would never know a day beyond that one. Tragedy struck the identical twins in the form of a sickness. Both died side by side, holding each other tightly in their bed they'd slept in for 18 years.RP Sample:
Their closeness and their love for each other kept them on Earth and both became Souls. What was unique, though is that their Soul Chain's connected and became one chain. They were bound together in life and now in death as well, though neither minded. Better they were together than apart and it was years before a Shinigami would come upon them. Seeing the uniqueness of the two, the Shinigami waited for his partner to come as well and offered them a simultaneous Soul Curial.
[Kuu and Umi remember nothing previous this note.]
For the first time in Soul Society's history, two souls awoke at the same time. More than that, they were identical twins and related by blood previously. They lived in the 14th District of Rukongai, working when there was work and providing for the other. They were happy years and spent without a care in the world aside from being together.
It was during an attack of Hollow on Rukongai that Kuu and Umi thought of Seireitei. They were aware of what Shinigami were, though they'd never seen one. They discussed it and decided that they should like to be able to protect those who cannot protect themselves. Hand in hand once more, they traveled to Seireitei to enroll in the Academy.
Both pulled their Zanpakuto at the same time, a feat considered impossible since their spirituality was graded as being of two different levels. What was more impossible were the twin appearances of their Zanpakuto. The blades were as identical as the twins themselves.
It wasn't until years later that they would hear the call of their Zanpakuto Spirits and both would hear the sad tale of the lovers. Sea and Sky always reaching for the other but never allowed to be together. They chose the twins because of their amazing connection and through the twins they could finally be able to be together again. In return for this...they would give the twins an impressive power. The Blades of Sky and Sea were no unknown sword to Seireitei but hadn't been seen in many, many, many years.
They graduated the Academy together and were welcomed into the 5th Division after Kyra-Taichou took over the Gotei after Aizen. Since the Division was all but abandoned after the betrayal of the previous Captain and because of this they were given patrols and little other duties.
Due to this, they patrol together and spend just about every waking moment together. Though they do sometimes spend some time apart, since their connection will warn them of anxiety of the other.
Kuu enjoyed feeling Umi's firm grip on her hand, and returned the favor with some of her rare enthusiasm, and a little grin on her lips. Yeah, Kuu felt good. The rest of the student's didn't matter.
Well, there was a cute blonde... and Unohana... Was it improper to be thinking ... things abut Unohana? Being captain commander, and all? Her words were about the only thing that mattered much outside the bubble of sisterlyness.
Kuu's attention went to her sister as she felt her shift, and that connection between them act up some, "You don't think that they'll make us go to different Divisions, do you?" her sister asked.
Kuu didn't have time to answer as Unohana said something important as she wrapped up the speech, but once that was done she replied "Of course not, Umi." And she felt fairly confident in this. One, or both sister would yell their head off, and it'd obviously demoralize them both if they were split up. Besides, their powers worked together... just too many intelligent reasons to leave them together.
