General Information
--------------------
Name: Takeme "San-san" Sanmaru
Actual Age: 205
Appearing Age: Early Twenties
Gender: Male
Appearance
Standing at an average hight of five foot eleven, and weighing about a hundred forty pounds, he has a small frame, thin shoulders, and doesn't seem to posess much muscle. Fact is, he doesn't. However, he is fairly agile. His head is very narrow, and his chin is slightly pointed.
His eyes are a steely gray, and quite narrow. His eye lashes are very short, surrounded by slightly darkened sockets, which can be noticed even through his black-rimmed glasses. His eyebrows seem to be permenently set in their place, with a slight incline to them. He doesn't change expressions frequently, but when he speaks, his teeth are slightly jagged around the edges, though his front teeth are straight.
His hair is black, and seems quite oily, slicked back and tied in a ponytail that is even with his collarbone at the lowest strand.
He wears the shinigami uniform, which fails to hide his bony wrists and ankles. His left leg has a large scar, running from the knee down. It appears to be a burn scar, though, Sanmaru refuses to comment on how he got it. On the off chance that he caves, he refers to the scar as, "An interesting discovery on my part."
Personality
Sanmaru is somewhat lacking in personality (surface-wise at least), as he's very much the silent (in a creepy sort of way) kind of guy. While his face is usually quite lacking in expression, he does occasionally get a sadistic glint in his eyes, which is rather startling from someone who rarely expresses emotions.
Morals are almost nonexistent for Sanmaru, he is heartless as a hollow. When fighting, especially when fighting hollows of any sort, he doesn't care about the voice, appearance, or personality. He's the sort who would strike first, ask questions later. He doesn't care if he's fighting someone who looks like a little girl, or an elderly man. He'd still strike them if he thought they were a traitor or a hollow.
He holds a strong hatred for hollows, and a blind loyalty to the gotei thirteen. He doesn't trust any sort of hollow, be it vizards or otherwise. When fighting, he has a tendency to attempt scarring his enemies, in some way shape or form. He has been known to cut the limbs off of hollows before actually killing them (because he's a creep).
Developing relationships is rather hard for Sanmaru, as, despite his vast intelligence, he will eventually analyze everyone he meets, whether it is wanted or not. He has a rather strange sense of companionship, as he considers everyone an enemy "in good time." In short, he analyzes everyone, waiting for the day when they try to pull something.
He has been seen to give false explanations in an attempt to conceal his failings, as his own lack of perfection drives him insane. He holds firmly to the belief that perfection cannot be obtained by mortal beings, which shinigami ARE.
Despite his former quiet and calm, a stoic and nearly emotionless persona, Sanmaru has begun to show slight surface emotions, such as embarrassment, fear, anger, and, perhaps joy. For Sanmaru, joy is an awkward emotion and he does not know how to handle it. In fact, all emotions are awkward for Sanmaru, and he is not entirely sure how to handle any of them. However, joy is the worst of them.
History
(I've decided to torture Sanmaru by making him tell the story with his zanpakuto spirit. Super happy fun time! Hopefully there aren't any problems?)
"Mm-hm-hm, Sanmaru-kun, the fourth wall bro-oke," Sanseiu bellowed, acid spilling from his mouth as he did. Sanmaru knew better than to stand anywhere near the enormous toad in this world, and he stayed back, on the circular platform farthest from the toad. "We're supposed to talk abo-out your life! Should be fun, Eh? Sanmaru-kun? Haha!"
"Sanseiu, refrain from speaking please."
"Eh? Sanmaru-kun, lighten up!" Oblivious to the fact that Sanmaru had just leapt to another platform, aiming to avoid getting acid on his feet, Sanseiu continued to laugh after he spoke, much to Sanmaru's dismay.
"Perhaps it would be simpler if I spoke instead of you," Sanmaru said in the most collected voice he could muster. Before the massive toad could speak, he cut him off. "I wasn't born in the rukongai--"
"He died and went to Soul Society! Hahaha!" The creature sprang out of the acidic marsh and onto the platform closest to Sanmaru, nearly hitting Sanmaru with the spray of acid.
"Sanseiu, please! Keep your distance!" Another leap to another platform, Sanmaru's narrow eyes narrowed even further. The oily-haired man turned to the reader, saying, "I was sent to the twentieth district of the rukongai, where, unfortunately--"
"He met me!" Sanseiu interupted with a loud croak ending his sentence.
"Sanseiu, I would appreciate it if you would speak facing a different direction. It was a rather painful experience, as I was asleep at the time. I happened to feel a strange, burning sensation around my feet, I looked down, only to find there was acid surrounding it. I searched to figure out why there was acid on the ground--"
"Eh? Sanmaru-kun, I remember you screaming like a little girl! And you used to be such a crybaby! WAAAH! WAHAHA! Everytime I spo-*croak*-oke!" The massive toad corrected Sanmaru, adding a long croak in the last word. "Even though I tried to talk to you you couldn't hear me! I bet it was 'cos you were screaming too loudly!"
"Sanseiu... well, it can't be helped I suppose. I awoke, staring at the sword that was under my pillow. To sum up the majority of my time in the rukongai, I spent most of my time reading. I had a bit of trouble with getting hungry, and very few people sold food. Registering for the shinigami academy wasn't my idea, but I hoped it would help me with the toad menace I saw in my nightmares."
"That's mean, Sanmaruuuuuu!"
"YEEEOUCH!" Sanmaru yelled as acid spilled onto his foot. He quickly pulled it up and shoook it, the man feeling the burning sensation of his zanpakuto's acid. Suddenly, seeming to realize something, the acidic shinigami stopped bouncing, and with a flash of shunpo, appeared on a platform opposite to his Zanpakuto spirit. "That reminds me of the scar on my left leg. I believe your acid gave it to me."
"No, Sanmaru-kun, it was after you joined the shinigami academy, during Kido practice, that one guy got angry with you and blasted your leg!Mm-hm-hm!"
"Right... I merely pointed out that his aim was poor, and I found that he could at least fire off a weak shakoho with a decent aim, and it gave me this scar."
"Why do you hate hollows so much?"
"That dates back to my first mission out of the academy. Very little of interest happened during my time there, but before I learned Sanseiu's name, I had graduated and was sent on a mission. Rather peculiar, though I suppose my prowess in kido helped." Sanmaru had regained his calm composure entirely by this point. After all, the massive toad hadn't interrupted him yet! But, before he could continue, his zanpakuto jumped in.
"Sanmaru, you were awful at kido back then! You didn't get better until you asked for help from Aiwo-chan!"
"Please, Sanseiu, enough..." It didn't matter though, his calls went ignored as the frog continued to reminisce, acid spilling from his mouth as he spoke.
"Remember how she used to hit you on the head?" The frog laughed, sending yet another spray of acid towards Sanmaru. It fell just short of the shinigami, although it didn't stop Sanmaru from widening his forever-narrow eyes.
"Sanseiu, the mission. We'll talk about Aiwo-san later." Sanmaru said in a desperate attempt to silence the massive toad. "When I was on that mission, I saw a hollow devouring my comrade. I struck the beast down, with the help of Sanseiu."
"Sanmaru, lighten up! Don't make such a serio-*croak*-ous face! Remember Aiwo-chaaan?" The giant toad's laughter sent more acid towards Sanmaru, this time a small droplet touching his wrist. The shinigami's narrow eyes came to life, widening greatly. This time, he made no sound, he simply shook his hand free of the accursed acid, as he did so, his eyes went back to their narrowed state.
"Aiwo-san trained me in kido and in shunpo, the basics of the latter. Kido corps member, an interesting sense of humor. Tried to kill me too. She called it a sparing match, but when she cast a bakudo number nine on me and then stabbed me in the gut, I started to believe she wasn't attempting to help me," Sanmaru explained to the reader with an emotionless expression.
"Stabbed? More like sliced you halfway in half!" The frog laughed. "He fell over on the ground and shot a byakurai at her head! Took him weeks to heal!"
"Personally, I believe she was completely insane."
"You say that about every sort of traitor. You said it about Aizen. And Gin. And Tousen. And Aiwo-cha-*croak*-an." More acid. It only poured into the ground before the toad, but it caused Sanmaru to shift his gaze in unease.
Well, you try getting burned by acid in your mind!
"Well, after Aiwo-san died, I had a few years, which, aside from my duties as a shinigami, were spent further refining my kido and shunpo abilities, working with Sanseiu, and attempting to not die in an acidic accident."
"OOOH! That's fun to say, Sanmaru-kun! Acidic Accident!" Sanseiu croaked, sending acid over the shinigami's head and onwards. By some strange miracle, it didn't spill onto the poor man, who had (wisely) ducked.
"I believe I've had quite enough of this. I shall return to normality and away from this nonsense. Farewell, Sanseiu, readers." As the shinigami spoke, he slowly stood up, and spoke at a similar pace. As he reached the word "farewell", the man gave a bow. Finally, a flash of shunpo, and the world seemed to fade from existance, leaving behind a black screen.Episode Two {New}
The screen opened, and within stood Sanseiu, Sanmaru finding himself much safer sitting on his zanpakuto spirit's back than being chased around his mind. He sat cross-legged, zanpakuto over his legs in a jinzen position.
"Sanmaru-kun! They're back!"
Sanmaru gave the slightest nod of acknowledgment before he stood up, lifting his sword and sheathing it. "Hello."
"Oh! Sanmaru, let me *croak* tell them!" Sanseiu demanded, acid pouring from his mouth as he spoke.
"Go on."
Sanseiu, seeming victorious, gave a triumphant croak and began to speak. "When the dead came back to life, not too long ago, Sanmaru was one of the shinigami to-*croak*-search for any more deceased who had been brought back to life. Sanmaru was possessed by a force unknown to those within the story--Umi--and attacked one of his fellow shinigami blindly."
"Who?"
"Shhhh," Sanseiu hushed his master, "I'm getting to the good part!" There was a brief pause before the massive toad began to speak again. "Sanmaru has little recollection of what happened, tho*croak*ough he was terrified! WAAAAAAH! WAAAAAH! He screamed!"
"Sanseiu, that is not what happened," Sanmaru added hastily.
"Shh! Anyways, Sanmaru-kun was upset. He was really upset! He didn't even want to let Rina-chan help him! After he recovered from his injuries, he spent what free time he had in meditation."
"And during that meditation, I found I was able to materialize my zanpakuto spirit, Sanseiu."
Nodding in agreement, Sanseiu began to speak again, acid dribbling down his maw. "Sanmaru-kun and I had a little...eheheh, a fight."
"I was able to create my Bankai at the end of it," Sanmaru added quietly, giving a calm nod. He spoke very neutrally, but something was just a bit off. "However, even though I was able to create my bankai, my lack of power seemed to be an issue, and I gained several injuries during the training from dropping my sword and becoming immersed in my own weapon."
"He was screaming," Sanmaru croaked joyfully, "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"Though not much else eventful truly happened, I did in fact meet several new people, have a battle with a slightly weaker arrancar--unresolved--and come into contact with my Taichou. However, I do not believe it will be necessary to make an effort to come into contact with my Taichou again."
Sanseiu croaked. "He's scared of him."
Sanmaru couldn't help the red that overtook his face.
The screen suddenly zipped away, and the black screen returned.

Zanpakutō
--------------------
Name: Sanseiu
Translation - Acid Rain
Unreleased Appearance
Sanseiu is a katana, just short of two feet in length. The tsuba is a gray and steely circle with no patterns on it; it is completely smooth, and has a six inch diameter. The hilt is wrapped in a twine mesh, which is an eye-hurtingly neon green. The black leather scabbard it is sheathed in is carried at Sanmaru's waist.
Sanmaru is right-handed, therefor his sword is carried on his left hip.
--------------------
Zanpakutō Spirit
--------------------
Name: Sanseiu
Gender: Male
Spirit Appearance
Sanseiu is a large toad, roughly the size of a small bus. His skin is a sickeningly green color, one that can be compared with radioactive sludge--the kind seen in cartoons. His skin has many warts, sporadically appearing on his skin. His eyes are a steely gray that matches Sanmaru's, with rectangular black pupils. When he speaks, the enormous frog's voice is about as deep as voices can get, though it is very smooth, and monotonous. Not to mention his mouth pours out what appears to be acid--similarly to his shikai--whenever he speaks. This gives Sanmaru a need to keep his distance.
Personality
Sanseiu is a very strange creature, who laughs at inappropriate times. In fact, he adds a chuckle after nearly everything he says. He is a jovial toad with not a care in the world, or so it seems. Crouching moron, hiddendragonacid-spraying toad? Perhaps! However, Sanseiu is predominantly a kind, laid-back spirit who seems not to care what happens so long as he comes out with a friend.
Relationship to Master
He often makes jokes about Sanmaru's actions, and urges Sanmaru to develop a personality, to which Sanmaru never says a word. He has a tendancy to hop after Sanmaru whenever the shinigami steps away from the acid that pours from his mouth, asking what he's running away from (Sanseiu is immune to his acid, unlike Sanmaru). Sanseiu is completely oblivious to everything that is wrong with the world; he doesn't understand why Sanmaru plans for everyone to betray him.
However, Sanseiu can be tough on Sanmaru at times. When Sanmaru came to Sanseiu in a moment of meditation, after having attacked a fellow shinigami while not in control of his own body, Sanseiu beat Sanmaru into shape with sprays of acid and heartfelt speeches. Though the toad is a jovial creature, he knows when there is a time to be serious (though even then, he still jokes around).
Inner World
The world that is Sanmaru's mind is a marsh, with only a few stones suitable for Sanmaru to stand on, and they greatly resemble the guard of his sealed zanpakuto, the smallest ones being three feet in diameter, the largest being fifty-feet in diameter. The watery sludge on the ground is actually quite similar to acid, and while it doesn't leave any marks, Sanmaru has learned to avoid stepping in it, as it does feel like his foot is being melted off by acid.
--------------------
Zanpakutō Shikai
--------------------
Call Out Phrase: Hakidasu, Sanseiu
Translation - Spit, Sanseiu
Shikai Appearance
Sanmaru's blade is a katana with a flat end (looking similar to a broken sword that we've seen a crapton of bleach characters carrying), as opposed to the pointed end most swords have. The blade measures at percisely two feet long. The tsuba is circular, with six pea-sized holes through it, surrounding the blade. The hilt lets out a rather sickening green glow (one that brings up thoughts of toxic waste from cartoons). As the fight progresses, a green acid* of the same shade will appear on the sharp edge of the blade.
*explained in abilities.
Shikai Abilities
San - Acid {Reworded}
- Description of Attack - After fourty seconds have passed, a sickly green acid will form on the sharp end of Sanmaru's blade. The acid has a pH value of -0.9, making it strong enough to burn through skin, and possibly muscle if enough time is given. It can be flung from the blade, although the acid will then have to regenerate. The acid is extremely flammable, which means if someone has it on their skin and for some reason it is lit, the acid will essentially explode. However, in midair, this stops the acid dead in its tracks.
(The reiatsu used to form Sanmaru's shikai is converted into acid within the hilt, and spreads out through the rest of the blade after being produced.)- Type - Passive/Offensive
- Range - 10 feet to disperse; 10'3" to become useless
- Limitation - Acid is created after fourty seconds of Sanseiu being released. Sanmaru is not immune to his own acid, and, as such, can take damage from it. His acid can be washed away by water, or burned by fire. The acid does not act too quickly, so if a person wanted to get it off they would be able to do so without sustaining any extreme damage (such as missing muscles and tissue). The acid cannot burn through kido; only mundane materials. The acid cannot get through anything Sanmaru himself would not be able to get through (such as hierro). The acid can only regenerate twice before it stops coming back.
- Effects based on Tier - For someone Sanmaru's tier or below, the acid could burn through flesh and muscle if left unattended on their bare skin for at least four seconds. Depending on the size of the foe, the acid will take different amounts of time to bore through skin and muscle. For someone a tier above, the acid would more likely have to get into the open wound of a foe, or in the eyes. However, it can still burn through the person's skin at half the rate (about eight seconds before it starts melting through skin). For two tiers or more, the acid simply wouldn't cause any actual effect aside from causing pain if it gets in the eyes or an open wound.
--------------------
Zanpakutō Bankai
--------------------
[/i]
Name: Sanseiu no Doushaburi
Translation - Downpour of Acid Rain
Bankai Appearance
When summoning his bankai, Sanmaru raises his sword into the air above him so that the hilt is perpendicular to the ground. Reiatsu shoots through the hilt, causing acid to form rapidly, and out the top of the sword, breaking the end so that it is a splintered, foot-long blade. The acid that is released forms exactly three feet above Sanmaru's blade (three feet away from the tip at all times, at the closest point).
The acid that has been released from the weapon will then form into a large, frog-shaped mass. The 'frog' is six feet from nose to rear, and two feet tall. It ends up being a proportionally larger poison-dart frog. When Sanmaru swings his blade, the frog will follow along as though it is bounding over land, hopping over the air. While moving, the surface of the frog's stomach is exactly three feet away from Sanmaru's blade at any given moment. It is connected to the blade, but not to Sanmaru. If Sanmaru drops his sword, the frog follows. If his sword breaks, the frog will 'explode' and acid will pop out in a three foot radius. If left stationary for ten seconds or more, the frog will 'sit' and relax until it is time to move again.
Sanmaru's uniform seems to have been altered upon entering bankai as well, though the adjustments are slight. He seems to gain a kimono with longer sleeves that easily cover his hands, and move slightly over his hilt, providing slight protection from any spilled acid upon the release of his bankai.
Bankai Abilities
San - Acid
[/color]
- Description of Attack - The acid has a pH value of -0.9, making it strong enough to burn through skin, and possibly muscle if enough time is given. Though the acid itself has not changed in value from the shikai form, it is no longer flammable, and is slightly condensed. It would take someone of at least Sanmaru's tier with at least intermediate kido skills to cut through the frog and reach Sanmaru.
Unlike the shikai form, this is much more condensed and is also filled with more reiatsu than before. It is twice as dense as water, and if one is caught in it it may be hard to figure out how to 'swim' out if said victim panics. However, Sanmaru is not immune to this.
In the event that Sanmaru's frog is cut through, it will disperse temporarily, and, after roughly twenty seconds, it will gather once more, and swallow up anyone foolish enough to get in the way. However, this is a large time gap in which Sanmaru is nearly defenseless.- Type - Offensive/Passive
- Range - The frog's stomach is always three feet exactly away from Sanmaru's blade.
- Limitation - Sanmaru is not immune to his own acid, and, as such, can take damage from it. The acid does not act too quickly, so if a person wanted to get it off they would be able to do so without sustaining any extreme damage (such as missing muscles and tissue). The acid cannot burn through most kido; mainly mundane materials. Because the acid is more condensed, and hardened, it would be able to break through weak bakudo (below 15) cast by someone a full tier below Sanmaru. The acid cannot get through anything Sanmaru himself would not be able to get through (such as hierro).
The acid frog can regenerate (after being cut) three times total before it will stop coming back and Sanmaru will be completely drained of energy.- Effects based on Tier - For someone Sanmaru's tier or below, the acid could burn through flesh and muscle if left unattended on their bare skin for at least four seconds. Depending on the size of the foe, the acid will take different amounts of time to bore through skin and muscle. For someone a tier above, the acid would more likely have to get into the open wound of a foe, or in the eyes. However, it can still burn through the person's skin at half the rate (about eight seconds before it starts melting through skin). For two tiers or more, the acid simply wouldn't cause any actual effect aside from causing pain if it gets in the eyes or an open wound.

{The conversation with Sanseiu}
The world within Sanmaru's mind was overflowing with acid to a point where Sanmaru found it difficult to balance on the platform he stood on. Sanseiu stood before him, though there was a silence that Sanmaru had not expected to see from his zanpakuto spirit. The bespectacled shinigami's lips curled down ever so slightly into the tiniest of frowns. It was barely noticeable, even to Sanmaru.
"Sanseiu," Sanmaru began, unaware that his voice cracked slightly. "I am here to request-"
"AHAHAHAHAHA!" the frog laughed, eyes closing gleefully. Sanmaru didn't move, thankful that the acid that dribbled down the mouth of the frog and squirted out of the maw didn't collide with his skin or hair. That would have been painful. "Oh, Sanmaru-kun," the old frog croaked, "You're funny."
Sanmaru couldn't help it; his face turned slightly pink at the accusation. Sanmaru? Funny? Was this some kind of joke?
"You do*croak*-oh, don't have to hide it here. It's your mind. I knoo~ow." Sanseiu closed his eyes as though he were thinking about something, causing Sanmaru to feel the slightest twinge of curiosity. "You're scared."
Sanmaru turned red at the accusation, unable to hide the humiliation, the rage, from the accusation by a part of him. He was the master! Not this senile toad! Before he could utter a word, however, the toad spoak once more. "Sanmaru-kun! This is what I mean. You are scared."
"What is the meaning of this?"
"You're scared," Sanseiu croaked, "Of what you hate. You're scared of failure, you're scared of letting others see you're still human."
"I am not," Sanmaru insisted. However, the pause given to him by Sanseiu told him otherwise. The sweat dripping down his forehead, his arms, good lord, he was right! Sanmaru paled at the realization.
"It's why you hide yourself," Sanseiu explained, croaking before he continued. "It's why you didn't want Rina-chan to heal you after the fight. It's why you didn't want to step out into the o*croak*open when it was safe."
Sanmaru held his tongue, not willing to indulge the massive toad in the fact that he was completely right, and Sanmaru understood it. But his silence was all it really took.
"So," Sanmaru began quietly, "What were you going to advise?"
"Oh, you know," the toad began jovially, smiling widely, "Lighten up, Sanmaru-kun!"
What a cryptic answer, Sanmaru thought blandly to himself.RP Sample Two{Conversation with Rinako}
"Um, Takeme-san?"
Sanmaru was silent, not interested in speaking with anyone, let alone Rinako. His eyes closed in a strange emotion he did not recall ever have felt before. What was this? Frustration? Anger?
Or perhaps guilt?
The tiny medic, however, scurried into the room regardless of whether or not Sanmaru answered. She was carrying a small clipboard with her, probably details as to the kinds of wounds he had, or forms, or something of little consequence.
No, everything was of consequence. Even tiny, insignificant things, such as Rinako. Inwardly, that same emotion seemed to walk up to him and slap him in the face. That couldn't have been guilt. Could it?
"Excuse me," she mumbled quietly, setting the clipboard down on the table. "Are you awake?"
"Hai."
Rinako gave a slight nod of acknowledgment. Did the poor thing actually see him as a friend? That twinge of emotion seemed to come up and slap him again. What was that accursed thing?
"Y-you're, uh, gonna be fine," Rinako finally said, "J-just need some rest and you'll be out and on your feet again."
Sanmaru gave a slight nod of acknowlegment.
"Are you alright?"
Sanmaru didn't answer. What did she mean by alright? He had just attacked one of his fellow shinigami without provocation and the other shinigami did not strike him down. What was alright about that? What was alright about the feeling that he had been betrayed by a force he did not know was within him?
What if it wasn't a force within him?
Nonsense. That was him. It was all him. Every ounce of it. "I am fine, Shikakawa-san."
Rinako gave the slightest nod before lifting up her clipboard and scurrying out towards the door. However, before she opened it, she turned her head back and said, "Get well soon."
With that, the tiny shinigami left, leaving Sanmaru very bewildered.Old RP Sample"Ok, who the hell're you?" The hollow asked. It didn't seem too happy with Sanmaru's presence, considering the blunt edge of his sword was pressed against the beast's mask. He'd just been denied a meal by a complete stranger, and this hollow wouldn't be stopped without a fight.
Sanmaru didn't utter a word, his gaze lacked emotion; it was psychology, a man with an inhumanly empty expression could drive one insane. And it seemed to be working on this hollow. He stepped forward, pushing the soul out of the reach of the hollow.
It was a serpent of a hollow, the eyes narrowed slits, the eyes glowing and red. No arms. No legs. Just one, massive, writhing tail. The tail was a weapon, sharpened into a blade. It was clear that that was the weapon, as it slashed at Sanmaru, who made haste in blocking the attack with his blade.
There was a static sound as he and the sobbing soul of a little boy appeared atop a roof. "M-mister... why are these... monsters... after me?"
Four links on the chain, Sanmaru noticed. He took his katana, pressing the end onto the boys forhead, not answering the question. The sobbing child seemed unable to understand, but he would find no comfort from Sanmaru.
The hollow's head popped up behind Sanmaru, quite an angered glint in his eye. He growled, "You sorry bastard! That was my dinner!"
Not a word was uttered from Sanmaru, nay, not a sound as he felt the blade of the hollow's tail scrape against his wrist. Turning towards the creature, he said nothing. At least, that was how it went at first. "Melt, Sanseiu."
Those few words, the hollow seemed to display a bit of surprise. "HAHAHA! That broken thing is your shikai?"
Not a word, the taunts didn't matter. Sanmaru didn't care. He jumped at the hollow, slashing at it, only to have his attack parried by the demon's tail. Nevertheless, his left hand remained free, and he pointed two fingers at the hollow's mask. "Hado number four: Byakurai."
Ironically, AFTER the lightening pierced the hollow's mask, the acid formed on the blade.
"Sanseiu, you have the strangest timing."
"Matte... I'm not done... Shinigami!" The hollow was persistant, if not insane. Then again, hollows weren't known for being talkers. Just mindlessly violent. He lunged at Sanmaru, baring fangs the shinigami had yet to see, up until this point.
But, to Sanmaru, it didn't matter. No emotions read on his face, the stoic shinigami simply removed himself from the hollow's assault with a shunpo. Behind the hollow, he stood on air, swinging his sword so that the spray of acid that flew towards its head didn't yet strike the mask. A sadistic glint appeared in his eye, though his lips didn't change.
Yet, the hollow had avoided the blow, acid spilling onto the building, and had aimed to slice Sanmaru before he could react, and hit too, slashing the shinigami's left arm.
That was the last thing the hollow saw, before Sanmaru charged the wretched beast, slicing through his mask with his once acid-coated blade, now simply plain metal. He didn't watch the hollow disinegrate, he just sheathed his sword.
(OOC: I know that the staffies dun like fight posts, but I didn't want to put Sanmaru in another social situation, since I just forced him to talk a crapton instead of getting tortured by non-lethal sprays of acid. ')
