Personality: Kazu is a laid back and flamboyant man, and he is rarely seen without a smile on his lips. Kazu is well-respected and highly honorable, and always treats those around him with respect, even those who are weaker or not as highly ranked as he is. As a result, he can be easily approached by others who seek favors or advice. Due to his high moral code, Kazu will never let any harm come to either his fends or those who attempt to protect them. He refuses to give up when he believes something is wrong and will do anything to do what is right. He is also quite perceptive, and has the ability to correctly judge people's character, and knows when they are lonely.

History: Kazu had been born into a royal family, he spent his life studying and mastering swordsmanship. His mother and father had thought him to be a prodigy, Kazu did'nt care much for this at all. At the age of 13 he was sent away and hired to be a bodygaurd of the land's emperor, which he did for 10 years, until he grew tired of gaurding him and killed him in his sleep. After that he left the palace and started a normal life in Kagamino city, just east of Karakura town, he opend up a dojo to teach kendo, and raised a family.

At the age of 35, he had finally finished his life plans and was now watching them come together, one night he was walking home from his dojo and saw his house was on fire, it was already being put out by neighbors, and firemen. He ran up to a fireman and asked,"What happend!?", the firemen just shook his head sadly and continued to put out the fire. Kazu ran into the burning house, screaming for his wife and kids, but all he found were they're huddled up, scorched bodies, Kazu fell to the ground in agony and began to scream, but no one could hear him. The combined sounds of the fire roaring, the powerful water hitting the walls, and the building collapsing drounded out his voice, he crawled over to his family, watching the building collapse in front of him, he closed his eyes.

At the last second the wall he was leaning up against was broken through by a firemen and he was dragged out, his life was saved. Days later he was attending the funeral of the family he had helped from with his wife...everything was destroyed, the funeral ended, but he stayed, he stared at the headstone of his family, in silence. He had been staring at it for hours, trying not to cry, then he heard a heavy breathing, then a hoarse chuckle, he turned around to see a large monster, looking at him dead in the eye. Kazu jumped and ran, screaming for his life, he didn't know what to do, everything, just then the monster had appeared in front of him and sent a punch right for his stomach, but before it impacted, it vanished into thin air. A man with some sort of bow was standing before him, with a smirk on his face, "come with me", he stated, from there on his life as a Quincy...began.



Name: Itazura


Sealed State:

Senrei Glove: None

Bow:

Type: Fire

Ability: Control the fire element

Techniques:

Reiryoku Absorption: Unlike Shinigami, who use their inner Reiryoku to fight, the Quincy fuel their abilities by absorbing the Reiryoku of their surroundings in the form of spirit particles. They primarily absorb them from the atmosphere, and have an easier time collecting this energy in environments with higher concentrations of spiritual particles, such as Soul Society or Hueco Mundo. To a sufficiently powerful Quincy, there is no difference between spiritual particles and spiritual energy as a source of power.

Reiryoku Manipulation: one can manipulate spiritual energy for offensive purposes. They most commonly reshapes spiritual particles into various types of bow and arrows, but can also concentrate spiritual energy into the form of swords or explosives.

• Ransōtengai (乱装天傀; lit. "heavenly wild puppet suit", "disheveled paradise puppet" in the Viz translation) — this is a high level technique that allows the user to control their body parts using strings of spirit energy controlled by their brain, forming lines or strings out of countless spiritrons. By using this technique, the user can control their body as one would a puppet, allowing them to move freely despite paralysis, broken limbs, or any other force that would impede normal movement. It was originally created to allow elderly Quincy to fight effectively, and is rare enough that Mayuri had never encountered a Quincy (out of the 2661 that he examined or studied) who could use it before Uryū.
  

Dislocated joints and broken bones are meaningless against this technique. Mayuri stated it as "the most powerful technique for the Quincy," but he did not know of the Quincy Final Form, which means as far as Mayuri knew it was the strongest.

Nuclear Arrow- Kazu fires an arrow with a red static around it, when this arrow impacts(or touches anything), it will erupt with a massive explosion.(think of it as when ulquiorra throws the javelin in his second resurrection, and that massive shock wave went off, except a fire version) (duration 1/cooldown 4)

Tsuin Gufuu- Kazu fires a red arrow, that when on impact, two massive fire tornado's erupt out of the ground. (duration 2 cooldown 4)

Hell Invertion- Kazu fires an arrow into the ground, and large columns of fire erupt out around the enemy


Use/Duration: How long can you use it for or how many times can you use this technique? Place in terms of posts

Cooldown: How many posts must you wait before being able to use this technique?

• Hollow bait — This item is a small, coin-shaped disk that attracts hollows when crushed.^[8] When used by Uryū, the bait, in combination with Ichigo's powerful spiritual pressure, was able to draw a Gillian-class Menos out of Hueco Mundo.
  

• Quincy Bangle (装身具, sōshingu; lit. "Accessory"): Introduced in the anime's Bount arc, the Quincy Bangle is an artifact designed to mimic a Quincy's natural powers. It works by drawing in spirit particles from the environment, much like a Quincy does regularly. It can only be used properly by those who are already adept at forming and directing spirit particles.
  

• Quincy cross (滅却十字, mekkyaku jūji; lit. "Destruction Cross")^[9]: Standard equipment for any Quincy, the Quincy Cross acts as the focus for a Quincy bow. The cross need not necessarily be in a cross shape, as Ryūken's cross is a pentacle.
  

• Sanrei Glove (散霊手套, sanrei shutō): A powerful Quincy artifact that can increase a Quincy's power exponentially, but requires a dangerous and exhausting type of resistance training (wearing it for a week while constantly firing spiritual arrows) to master. The glove works by scattering the spirit particles in the surrounding area, making it much harder to form a working bow. If a Quincy can summon a bow and use it for the required amount of time, they will have undergone a massive increase in power. When removed, however, the glove will release the user's energy all at once - first transforming them into a being of tremendous strength, the Quincy Final Form, and then forcing their Quincy powers to gutter out completely.
  

• Seele Schneider (魂を切り裂くもの (ゼーレシュナイダー), Zēreshunaidā; German for "Soul Cutter", Japanese for "That Which Slits the Soul"): The Seele Schneider is a thin sword that can be fired similarly to an arrow. It's much longer than a standard arrow and functions something like a chainsaw: the spirit particles of its blade vibrate at ultra-high frequencies, loosening the molecular bonds between any spirit matter it cuts so that the Quincy user may easily absorb the freed spirit particles. Uryū also stated that using it increased his spiritual power. ^[10] The Seele Schneiders Uryū uses are stolen from a secret storage room under Karakura hospital.
  

• Silver tubes (銀筒, Gintō): Silver tubes are small liquid-filled capsules that store spiritual energy, and are used by Quincy for spellcasting in the same way that Shinigami use kidō. Like kidō, they are activated by calling out various commands.^[11]
  

Final Form Look: Same as the normal final form except but the spiritual energy attatched to his roight shoulder is maroon

Special Qualities: While in final form, the speed of Kazu's arrows are doubled, they also seek the target, even if he dodges, if they are destroyed, they will instantly reform at a distance where they will gain enough speed to kill.


Ability:

Spirit Arrow Augmentation: The power of the users' arrows are drastically increased; a standard arrow was enough to push a Captain, Mayuri Kurotsuchi, into releasing his Bankai. A charged arrow, arguably at full power, was enough to cut Mayuri's Konjiki Ashisogi Jizō completely in half, and continue traveling until it pierced a huge hole into his chest; even then the arrow still had enough power left over to cause large scale damage to the structures in Sereitei.

Reishi Dominance: As stated by Kurotsuchi, Uryū was no longer using collection of spiritrons, but "dominance" over them. Using the Final Form, a Quincy can go past his mortal limits and break down spiritual structures, such as buildings, for their own power.

Vast Spiritual Power: After the Final Form is released, the Quincy is engulfed in a tremendous and powerful blue aura, which is actually their reiatsu being released. Mayuri was shocked at how Uryū's Spiritual Pressure "inflated."

Hirenkyaku Augmentation: The Flying Screen Step technique is much faster, allowing Uryū to get a shot on Captain Kurotsuchi with relative ease. Using Hirenkyaku in conjunction with their augmented arrows, a Quincy in their Final Form becomes a deadly opponent to all but the most powerful opponents/threats, as they are now at least stronger than a captain.

Kazu gains the ability to launch a massive fire arrow( around 25 feet tall and however many feet wide) that will seek the target, on impact the opponent will be surrounded in a column of fire and will be burned, and lacerated from the arrows inside.

Techniques: Kazu shoots one arrow into the air that erupts into a giant flaming phoenix, this phoenix then emits enormous columns of fire from its beak to rain down on the enemy, mean while, its presence is causing thin beams of fire to erupt from the ground

Use/Duration: 5(for the phoenix) 3(for the massive arrow)

Cooldown: Never again in the same topic(for phoenix) 6(for massive arrow)


A senkaimon opend up in in the sky as Kazu fell straight down out of it,he was unconsciounsly drifting down towards the battle field,he began to wake up as he saw people fighting and yelling at each other.Two people seemed to be the center of attention this guy with his hands in his pockets and another one that had a unique hairstyle.Kazu landed in front of the guy with his hands in his pockets and finally recognized him as Zeek the other was Aizen Sosuke,thanks to him being briefed by the mysterious man the gave him a senkaimon to this place,he was ready to fight.

"Well now,I wonder which one is this bad guy here,Zeek or Aizen",he turned to some of the shinigami as if he was expecting an awnser from one of them.Then he turned back to Zeek and smirked,"I have a good feeling about you,I hope this will be a good fight and lets not have any interuptions I wouldnt want anyone else to get hurt if I accidentaly attack them instead of you,he said with an evil grin.Kazu drew his Naginata's and swung one towards his head and thrusted the other towards hs heart.

Mikaru listened intently at Aizen's words. "It looks like I wont be able to stay long after all. It would have been fun...tearing you all apart." he said with a sad tone, though he ment it. Deep down, he wanted them all dead for being weak. Mikaru noticed the new comer and grinned at his words. "I'm not Zeek anymore. I'm Mikaru. Hahahahahaa!!" he said throwing his head back and laughing. He heard Kazu talk about how he didn't want anyone else to get in the way of his attacks, and that gave Mikaru his next move. With incredibal speed, Mikaru ripped through the air evading Kazu's attack and flying toward Ichigo. He twisted in the air, landing a single kick into his gut. Blood and saliva shot from his mouth instantly as Ichigo went tumbling down toward the nearest bomb...which was about 2-3 miles away. "One down."

Mikaru then kicked off the air using his spirit energy, he did a curve and shot toward his next target. Shinji Hirako. Mikaru arrived in seconds, landing a single punch in his gut that shot spirit energy from his backside, cracking the ground. Mikaru pushed harder until his fist went inside of Shinji, shattering his spine and leaving him dead upon doing so. "Thats two." he said already launching toward his next target. Kenpachi Zaraki. Once again, he arrived in seconds. Pulling his sword from it's sheath, Mikaru cleaved off Kenpachi's arm in a single swing. He then leaped up, twisted in the air, and slammed his foot across Kenpachi's jaw, breaking it. Kenpachi went flying toward Inoue, who was healing Kisuke. Mikaru kicked him hard enough so that if he hit Inoue, she would be killed or very badly injured. Once finished, Mikaru shunpod back infront of Kazu, a grin across his face.

"There, now they can't get in our way. Still wish to fight me?" he asked shoving his hands back in his pockets and raising his spirit energy high enough to cause a static like fealing, a numbing...cold...deady fealing. "I think you should tend to your comrads, and focus on getting stronger. It would be boring if we beat you guys so easily, right?" he said throwing his head back again and laughing. "What will it be....Vizard." he said revealing Kazu's identity. It wasn't hard for him, he was trained to know the diffrence in reiatsu, and by showing that, he showed just a little more of what he can do. "Be warned. If you fight me, I wont be as easy on you as I was with those other three, understand?" he asked awaiting Kazu's response.

Kazu's head went down and stayed like that for several seconds then his body starting moving a little bit,his head raised up slowly and then it jerked up towards the air.Kazu began laughing insanely and fell over,still floating in the air,his eyes began flashing yellow,his inner hollow had woken up from witnessing that,exactly what he wanted.Even though he didnt have his mask on yet,his Inner hollow was so excited that his eyes had become black and yellow.

"You fucking dumbass!!,you think I care if people get hurt,I just want the fight of my life,to me...it's the best high there is!!",Kazu said laughing.He then jumped up and took a deep breath,his eyes changed back to normal,then he matched Mikaru's rieatsu and smirked,"I seriously hope this is'nt even a fraction of your power cuz if it's more than 1%....you haven't been training very hard",he said with a smirk."Now then lets begin....",,Kazu shunpo'd above Mikaru and turned upside down,then sent one of his Naginata's to Mikaru's third vertebra and the other Naginata blade was sideways,and heading to the center of Mikaru's stomach.

Mikaru grinned. "Good." was all he said as he manuvered his head away from his first attack, it barely skimming his hair. His body was now vertical, allowing the second blade to sail underneith him. His leg was in position, and seconds from connecting with Kazu's face. "Didn't catch your name kid." he said with an excited, bloodthirsty look on his face. Mikaru closed his eyes for a plit second. "This has to be it, this has to be the fight. The one thing I need...the one thing to save me...I cannot lose this battle!" he screamed in his head. He rose his spirit energy, focusing it into his skin, hardening it. "Yes! Just what I needed!" he screamed in thought again. "This kicked will be stronger than he thinks."
Kazu laughed as he turned sideways and let the kick pass by,but what he didnt think of was spiritual pressure,as Mikaru kicked rieatsu was released and it blew Kazu back from Mikaru.That was a nice move,however it pissed me off and I will tell you my name when you are dieing with my blade in your throat and you choking on your own blood!".Kazu then shunpo'd past him as a small but deep cut appeared on Mikaru's arm,Kazu looked back and licked the blood of his blade.

Mikaru grinned, letting a shadow fall across his face. "You were able to cut me. And by doing so, you actually think you have a chance of winning..." he said with laughter. He slowly began turning around, the shadow slowly moving from his face as he so. When completly turned around, Mikaru's face showed wide, insane eyes. "Can I prove your wrong? Huh!? Can I!?" he said starting to quickly walk toward him, each step sending ripples of spirit energy. "You see, it wouldn't matter if you could hit me with a hundred more of those, or a thousand! I'll still crush you!" he shouted angrily as he leaped toward him. He got seconds away, then vanished.

He was now behind Mikaru's right side, aiming another kick for the side of his kneecap in an attempt to break it. He knew that spot was extremly difficult to block, and decided to expose the aspect of it. Mikaru was now angry, which was not a good thing. He felt that Kazu was looking down on him, the one thing that ticks his insanity. "I'll crush you, rip you apart...and prove that you cannot beat me!" he shouted at him getting more and more pumped by doing so.

Kazu jumped up and became inverted,completely avoiding the kick,then he drew the Naginata furthest from Mikaru back and focused some rieatsu into the tip of it,then thrusted it down with intense speed and accuracy."If this even touches him...it'll completely blow his leg off,he thought.

Mikaru once again manuvered around the blade, but wasn't quick enough. The attack sliced open a gash in his chest causing a slow paced blood flow. Mikaru winced and appeared on the flat end of Kazu's blade, doing a backflip. He shunpod in mid flip and appeared around 30 yards away. "You asked for me if I was at 1%. You were right, time to show you 2%." he said with a look of sadness. He slowly pulled out his katana for the first time during the battle. He leaped forward, his spirit energy sky rocketing. He rushed forward, and seconds later, blood went flying everywhere. Mikaru had stabbed his sword into Kazu body and glanced back at the wound Kazu had given him. He looked back Kazu, leaning in close on his ear. "Never wound, what you can't kill." he said loud enough for only Kazu to hear. The next second, he ripped his sword out the right side of his body causing more blood to spill like a water fall.


Kazu smiled but also tears ran down his face,he grabbed a hold of Mikaru's neck and pushed him away slowly,then he glared at him,closed his eyes and kicked Mikaru down into a building with intense speed.Then Kazu coughed out some blood and fell out of the air,slowly drifting down to the streets of seiretei,he hit the ground with a thud and landed in front of squad 4 barracks,he stared up at the sky,knowing he was going to die.
