Description: Using the enhanced control of shadows Yamato allows, Tyler creates Three Chains out of his own shadow, these chains can be moved like limbs via thought and Reiatsu control, each chain ends in a knife like protrusion that is as sharp as Yamato.

The extension lasts for four posts before dissipating.
For: Shikai
Name: Shadow Burst
Type: Offensive
Cooldown: 3 Posts
Cost: Moderately low
Range: Mid
Description: Tyler Holds Yamato out in front of him, then inverts it and lets go, allowing it to drop into the ground, causing a huge burst of shadows to form around him and his weapon! The force of the blast does nothing more than knocking people away however.
note that you cannot start off with bankai unless the character is AV-3 or higher.
name: Yamato, Kage no masutā (Master of Shadows)
description: Due to the duality of his powers, Tylers appearance undergoes seemingly conflicting changes. All of his clothing becomes flowing, almost appearing to have become shadows themselves! Though this is simply due to his dual reiatsu conflicting and forming a elegant, yet also bestial truce in change. Once those initial changes happen, the changes to his sword take affect. The changes Yamato undergoes are quite small, yet also quite drastic. The sword itself increases in size, becoming equal to that of a nodachi, but despite this it is still able to be held with a single hand. The color swap remains, but now there is also a purple luminescence to the blade, highlighting the weapons connection to shadow, along with its wielders.
type: Shadows
stat upgrades: +3 Rei, +3 Sei, +2 Hak
techniques: For: Bankai
Name: Kage no mori (Forest of Shadow)
Type: Passive
Cooldown: 8 posts
Cost: High
Range: Medium
Description: The Signature ability of Tylers bankai. When activated Day becomes night, a full moon appears, and trees start to grow around Tyler and His opponent. This forest does have several clearings, in fact the forest itself forms around Tyler and his opponents, leaving them in a clearing that Tyler is typically the first to leave. The clearings are each 10-20 meters apart from each other. The area of this forest is much smaller than the inner world it is based off of, being only 100 meters in size while the actual inner world is indefinitely large. This forest stays up for a maximum amount of ten posts.
For: Bankai
Name: Kurayami no ha (Dark Blades)
Type: Offensive
Cooldown: 1 post
Cost: Low
Range: Medium
Description: The most basic offensive capability of Tyler's bankai, this ability allows tyler to form two shadowy carbon copies of his Shikai, then once the word "Go" is said the two blades launch themselves at high speeds at an opponent.
For: Bankai
Name: Dākumūbumento (Dark Movement)
Type: Defensive
Cooldown: 4 posts
Cost: Low-Moderately High
Range: Close-Far
Description: A simple defensive ability, Tyler merges with the shadows around him, his body dematerializing into shadows. He then moves in a single direction, choosing when to reappear, though if he reaches the maximum length of 20 meters this technique is forcefully ended. The longer he uses this the more taxing it becomes.
Though he merges with the shadows around him, there are two main drawbacks to this. The first drawback is that if the opponent has anything to make light, they can visually track him. The second, more critical drawback, is that his reiatsu cannot be suppressed while merged, allowing anyone to track him while he is merged.
INNER HOLLOW:
note that you cannot start off with hollowfication mastered. It can be mastered at EL-2 or higher.
name: Nero
appearance: Nero is a bleached white version of tyler, but there is one noticeable difference, Neros left arm is similar to that of a demon.
personality:Nero is everything Tyler hates, he thinks everything is a joke, is powerful despite never actually trying at anything, and has no grasp of the meanings of "Mercy" or "Honor"
hollow mask:The Mask is shaped to look like the face of a dragon, but is pitch black with white tribal designs. The mask actually extends past Tyler's face, the mouth of it being empty space. Behind Tyler's head however there are many small spikes that are meant to prevent anyone from grabbing him.

AND ALL THE REST
I'M NOT WHAT I HAVE DONE
HISTORY:
~Life and death~
Tyler Yamasaki was born in a small town about five miles east of Karakura Town, He was born to a single mother by the name of Aurora, she had retired from being a soul reaper just three years before he was born, which also led him to have latent spiritual awareness. He grew up living as normal a life as he could, helping the souls of the departed as best he could, not knowing that 90% of the time the souls he had helped would become hollows. He had a fairly normal life until his 19th birthday, the day after he graduated high school. That day was the first time he had an encounter with hollows and soul reapers, though at the time he thought someone had slipped some drugs into his food at school or something, so he disregarded them entirely. That would be the only abnormal thing in his life for another five years. Five years later he had another encounter with hollows, but this time it would prove fatal. He was walking home from his part time job as kendo instructor when he turned a corner and saw what looked like a monster with a fishes head chasing after the ghost of a little girl! She quickly spotted him and ran behind him yelling, "Mister, keep the monster away from me!" Hysterically. Tyler being as kind and stubborn as he was, pulled out one of his six butterfly knives and tried to fight the thing, but after a few slices the blade snapped! That's when the hollow would punch him with its oversized hand, sending him flying into a building, though the initial impact isn't what killed him, no what killed him was the fact that he had broken some of the rebar in the foundation with the hit, and it impaled him on the building, the rebar slicing through his heart and brain, turning him into a ghost on the spot. It was then that he had his second encounter with soul reapers, as soon as he left his body, three soul reapers appeared and made short work of the hollow. As soon as the hollow was dead and the girl was transported to the soul society, one of them noticed him, what tyler didn't know was that as soon as the girl had been touched by the Zanpakuto his latent soul reaper powers had awakened, and there was then a large spike of reiatsu coming from him. But as soon as the girl dissapeared the leader of the group walked up to him and asked him "Why is there such a large amount of reiatsu coming from you?" The question had confused tyler and it must have shown because the man laughed and simply used Konsō on him, sending him to the soul society. ~His days at the academy~
A year after he was sent to the soul society Tyler had done two things, changed his last name to Yamasaki instead of simply not having one, and he had joined the academy. His first test was easy, it was a written exam and a demonstration of your reiatsu. He easily passed the exam, but the reiatsu demonstration was a bit harder, he had always had trouble using his reiatsu because it had been dormant for most of his life, but he managed, then suddenly he felt a larger influx of reiatsu come out of him, and it hurt him slightly due to its raw nature, it appeared around him In the form of dimmed sunlight for a 3 foot radius around him. Needless to say he was accepted simply because he was smart, and had reiatsu that needed to be put under control. Those first few days at the academy were the hardest, word had gotten around that he had a talent with the shadows, and many people were afraid of what he could accidentally do. Though he had made three friends during that time, a girl named Imani that he had fallen for, a guy named Kazu that was actually kind to him despite his abnormal talent, and one of the teachers that had seen past his abnormal power and actually had gotten to know them. With their support he had passed the tests and graduated the academy in the top 10th percentile of his class, then Imani,Kazu, and himself were seperated, each of them being assigned to different squads. His time in the Gotei 13 was pretty normal, he was frequently sent out to exterminate hollows, and he was left alone for the most part when he was in the barracks. This would only be the same for two months.
~Hollowfication~
Two months into his time as a soul reaper, his two friends Imani and Kazu had mysteriously dissapeared from their barracks, his Captian and most of the others knew of his connection to them, so he was sent to investigate the last place their reiatsu had been detected, the forest just outside of his hometown. He had hurried there and what he found had sent him into hysterics, he first saw Imani, stabbed to a tree with her own sword, then he saw Kazu stumble out from the shadows clutching his stomach saying, "Be..Hind...You..." Before collapsing. He then drew Yamato and spun around in a blind rage, looking at the hollow that had murdered his friends, he then felt a large reiatsu coming from it and knew he was in for a fight he wouldn't get away from unharmed. So he had decided to use his Shikai, right then and there "Descend, Yamato" was all he said as shadows started to burst from the blade, changing the blade from silver to black, warping the Tsuba into the kanji symbol of darkness, and inverting the colors of its handle, while its sheath turned from pitch black to a dull grey. He then sprinted at the hollow and used his dark impulse attack twice, making the waves of darkness form a "X" shape as he slashe at its mask, the hollow then would reveal a surprise, it would swat the shadows away, then would rake its claws against Tyler's chest, but that didn't stop him from destroying its mask. That was when it revealed its true power, putting what little reiatsu it had left Into creating his opponents inner hollow! As it faded away a white gum like substance started to burst from Tyler's eyes and mouth! He panicked and let loose a large amount of reiatsu, then the mask formed, taking on its dragon-like shape and completely overtaking his body, making the people who were tracking his reiatsu think another hollow had shown up and killed him as the first one was killed, allowing him a window of time to have his initial fit of rage, slashing at the trees and generally destroying things. About ten minutes later the mask had shattered and he had seen the destruction he had done, ashamed he used his loves Zanpakuto to open up a senkaimon and hid in the world of the living, attaining a gigai that looked like him without anyone he knew being able to recognize him if they came across him. He still hunts hollows, he's just careful to not use too much reiatsu when doing it....
RP SAMPLE:
Jeez,why's it so HOT now?! Tyler asked nobody in particular as he walked down the streets of Karakura town, sweating underneath his coat, but refusing to take it off. He wasn't looking for anyone in particular today, he actually was going to visit one of the places from his past, his old kendo school. I wonder if its still a dojo... he thought as he turned the corner to the building he had rented out during his life as a human, only to find that it had been turned into a apartment complex! I guess it was too much to hope, after all, I did die a few years ago... he thought as he shrugged off his coat and turned back the way he had came. That was dissapointing, I was hoping it was still a Dojo... He mumbled as he headed back to the abandoned building he was hiding out in, keeping an eye out for hollows or soul reapers as he took the alleyways, trying to avoid attention while using as little of his soul reaper powers as possible. He had taken to that habit ever since he became a visored....
