Personality:
Samuii, whose full name means "Cold Summer", is cold, ruthless, and uncaring. She wouldn't care who dies, just so long as her goal is achieved. She will kill in cold blood and break the rules, just to establish her position. In battle, she won't stop until her enemy is dead, and even if her comrades are in the way, she will kill them all.Appearance:
Samuii has difficulty with authority, and never uses honorifics. The only ones she uses are "-kun" and "-chan", which she uses mockingly. She also has a hard time working with others, and prefers to work solo. Due to her uncaring nature, she follows the saying "At Least It's Not Me", and applies it to her everyday life.
Samuii has short, ginger hair that falls just at her neck. The ends of her hair flare out, and she keeps her short bangs pinned back. On her cheeks, there are eight blue, perpendicular stripes (four on each side). Her skin is a nice shade of tan, from many years under the sun.Arrancar Powers:
She wears a white Arrancar jacket without sleeves, and is zipped up to just under her neck. She wears elbow-length gloves that cover the back of her hand. She wears the white Arrancar Hakama with white Chinese shoes and black socks. Her zanpakuto is strapped on her right side.
Her hollow hole is on her neck, which she keeps covered with a red scarf that hangs just in front of her breasts. Her mask fragments consist of a bone choker-like piece around her neck and hollow hole (it's not exactly like the image below...but something like it). She also covers it with her scarf.
El Pulso (The Pulse) is an ability that coats her sword with reiatsu to boost its strength and cutting abilities. Not only that, but she can release the reiatsu to attack her opponents, similar to a Bala, though not as fast.Natural Arrancar Powers:
Cero - Samuii can fire a teal-coloured Cero from her mouthZanpakuto's name:
Sonido - Samuii is extremely proficient in Sonido.
Toque del Corazon (Touch the Heart)Un-released Zanpakuto's Appearance:
Toque del Corazon resembles an ordinary katana with a blade that is 36 inches long and a 9-inch hilt. The hilt is a deep shade of red, with a blue tribal pattern running up the sides. The guard is oval, with ten triangular protrusions, making it look like a sun. The sheath is navy.Resurrección Release phrase::
Shitataru, Toque del Corazon! (Drip, Toque del Corazon)Resurrección Appearance::
Upon releasing, Samuii takes on a different appearance. Her hair grows about a foot longer, with multi-coloured beads hanging from braids near her bangs. On her forehead, she wears a cloth-like headpiece with two pieces falling over her ears, and ostrich feathers attached on the back. The stripes on her cheeks become thinner, and connect through a single stripe over her nose. Her scarf disappears, revealing her hollow hole, and mask, which now extends all the way down to her shoulders, giving her a collar-like acessory. Attached to the collar is a red, Aztec/Inca-like poncho, with white designs on the edges.Resurrección Abilities::
She also wears a turquoise coloured skirt, with a thin black belt, and brown, knee-high boots with white ball-like accessories on it. Basically, she has an Aztec-Inca motif.
Her sword transforms into a two foot long macuahuitl, an ancient Aztec weapon. It is a long, wooden club with five sharp blades studded on each side. (refer to image below). The handle is gold, and the blades on the side is a deep, blood-red colour.
El Rayo (The Ray) is a simple ability that allows Samuii to detach the blades on the side of the macuahuitl and 'fling' them at her opponents by swinging the club. A new one grows each time a blade is removed, but she is limited to one hundred blades (or ten detachments)Skill Level: Kidou: Intermediate
La Purga (The Purge) is an ability that allows Samuii to consume her opponent's blood to temporarily boost her reiatsu. She absorbs the blood by licking it off the macuahuitl. The blood gives Samuii a boost in reiatsu, which she usually needs to perform her third ability. If not, the temporary boost lasts for a minute, and if she consumes too much blood, her body cannot handle the extra reiatsu and shuts down. Samuii can only consume an equivalent of one tablespoon of blood, which gives her about five minutes.
El Sacrificio (The Sacrifice) is Samuii's most powerful ability, yet is also the most taxing, so much so that she can only use it once a week. Raising the macuahuitl, the one hundred blades fly out around Samuii and her opponent, creating a barrier with a diameter of ten feet. When the barrier is established, Samuii must make contact with the heart (or the chest where the heart is usually placed) with the club for the remainder of the technique to work.
Upon making contact, the club absorbs the opponent's reiatsu, forming a blade on the tip of the club. When this is finished, she stabs the blade into the abdomen, and cut upwards towards the diphagram. The blood that results from this technique is absorbed by the blades, which add to it's reddish-colour. The blades then surround the enemy and finishes the job by imbedding themselves in the opponent at the same time.
A major downside to this technique is that if no opponents are trapped inside the initial barrier, the technique automatically ends, and it results in a severely weakened Samuii. It is particularily easy to avoid the barrier, as one can simply use Shunpo, Sonido or something like it to exit before it is established. Second, if Samuii is injured while using this technique, the barrier shatters, no matter how severe the attack, just so long as Samuii sheds a single drop of blood.

History/Background:
Samuii was born in the Aztec Empire, though she doesn't remember when, nor does she remember her real name. She died as a child when the Spanish invaded Tenochtitlan, her birthplace. Before she died, she saw her father, a noble Eagle Warrior, and the rest of her family killed by the Spanish. Samuii spent years as a Plus inhabiting the ruins of Tenochtitlan, until she eventually became a Hollow, where her desire for vengance against the Spanish fueled her hunger. Discontent with their souls, she found herself in Hueco Mundo, where she consumed other hollows to sustain herself. However, she was still unsatisfied, and became restless, and she eventually became a part of a Gillian.RP Sample:
Many years, and many struggles passed, and she found herself overwhelming the others, and thus became an Adjuchas. She grew more powerful with each new hollow she devoured, yet, she still remained displeased at how she turned out to be, as she believed that she could be more than an Adjuchas, and she longed for a way to end her seemingly never-ending hunger. Years passsed, and eventually, Samuii managed to rip her mask off, turning into an Arrancar.
Samuii tilted her head as she kicked over the body of some nameless man she had just killed. It rolled over onto its back as its lifeless eyes locked into her own.
"It's nothing personal," she said, pulling her sword from the man's chest, "You were just in the way,"
Wiping the bloody blade on the man's shirt before resheathing it, Samuii looked out onto the large harbour, dozens of anchored ships swaying gently to the waves.
Samuii sneered, as she heard voices getting louder and louder. Her eye twitched. Must more people come to ruin her plans? She turned and saw about a dozen men running towards the hill she was on. They saw the man lying on the floor, dead, as they began to talk amongst themselves.
Her irritation grew. Why won't they leave her alone? Opening her mouth, she charged a Cero, decimating the hill, and every single human on it.
Satisfied that no other human would interrupt her plans, she turned her attention back to the ships. Her eyes narrowed as she saw the flags billowing in the wind.
"Ugh, worthless," she muttered. Opening her mouth, she fired another Cero, obliterating the harbour, and the ships with them.
