sex: female | sexual orientation: Pansexual| race: Arrancar ALIASES:The Foehammer AGE:573 AGE OF APPEARANCE:Appears to be within her mid to late twenties NUMBER:5 ASPECT OF DEATH:Destruction RANK:Espada BASE FORM:Adjuchas
"You could make grown men cry" Cherry Lips, Garbage FACE CLAIM:N/A
HEIGHT:5'11
WEIGHT:150lbs
APPEARANCE:Ragradia's body has a medium frame to it, her skeletal structure combined with the visible traces of muscle mass present on her body show she is quite athletic and capable of tackling physical labor with little to no ill effect. Covering her frame is a layer of blemish free skin, fair in color yet not what one would call pale. Resting at an impasse between a light tan yet not quite pink either. Her hourglass figure is accented by an ample bust along with a pair of luscious legs attached to her comely hips, granting her a good deal of sex appeal(which is rarely relied upon).
While her face is soft and smooth, her features are a bit less so. She often maintains a stern/determined look about her. Her stern features are only enhanced by the presence of the remnants of her hollow mask which rest on either side of her face like a pair of streamlined spikes attached the temporonadibular joint and a small portion of mandible that rest above her head like a pair of decorations where ones sideburns would be located. The spike like protrusions come off her head and stick our parallel to the top of her ears with a total length of 5(five) inches. Stationed between these pieces of her hollow mask are a pair of sharp Emerald green eyes. A certain intensity is displayed within her eyes, be it good or bad depends on the person interacting with her.
Framing her face is a deep crimson hair that falls whimsically about her head. The fringe in the front is trimmed accordingly to keep it from getting in her eyes and obscuring her field of vision. Her hair comes to a stop several inches beneath her shoulders in the back with a little hanging down the front. She doesn't often put much effort into making her hair look neat since it'd just be a waste of her time should she wind up getting into a fight.
Should anyone ask, people will confirm she has legs that go all the way up. Smooth, properly cared for like the rest of her, and they usually catch someone's eye when they are bare. If someone where to walk in on her while changing they'd see no sign of tan lines or anything of the like, her body having a uniform balance in color. Her hands are soft, agile, and very precise in their movements, the only thing that might mare them is possible callouses on her finger tips and palms. They'd also see her hollow hole is located beneath her sternum with her Espada tattoo being located along her lower inner thigh on her left leg.
Her uniform has been tailored to her tastes, much like the other Espada. Instead of robes and the like, she instead wears a tight dark colored sleeveless body suit that fastens around the neck and has no back. She often wears an Ivory white colored jacket that is left unbuttoned and covers her upper torso mostly. Her feet are covered by a pair of Ivory white sandals, much akin to shoes used in chinese martial arts. Ragradia will wear a pair of Ivory white gloves, all but the middle and ring finger on each glove are removed. Around her waist she'll often wear a belt that rests at an angle, the buckle is a metal plate with the word 'WILD' carved into it with her sword fastened across the back of the belt.
"They are the Prey and we are the Hunters" Guren no Yumiya, Linked Horizon LIKES: -Cooking despite the fact it's recreational -Watching people fight -Anything involving using her hands -A good scrap
DISLIKES: -Sappy moments -Disrespect for good food -Hearing people bitch about fair fights -Beating up those weaker than her
NEGATIVE TRAITS: -Harsh -No concept of Empathy -Often vents her frustration on others even if they aren't responsible for it
POSITIVE TRAITS: -Brave to the point it borders on Hubris -Respectful to those that prove themselves through actions -Adaptable to many situations -Observant
EXTRAS:Ragradia is keen, but very blunt about her approach to things. She will often forgo subtly for a very straightforward approach to things. While her approach is often simple, her method of handling things is different. Her mind isn't that of a brute, but it's not exactly a scholar either. She approaches things with rapid thinking and methodical observation. However the problem with this is that she often applies this more toward combat than everyday situations.
She doesn't empathize well and will often shrug off the blight of others if it doesn't interest her in some fashion or another. The only thing she seems to clearly respect are those who prove through actions and a very choice slab of meat cooked to perfection. At times it can be hard to determine what travels through her mind, especially when she's not being talkative.
"I'm gonna be the one who breaks you" 2x4, Metallica WEAPONS:N/A
ZANPAKUTO:name:Acorazado "Dreadnought"
sealed form: A longsword of standard length, the sheathe it is placed in is umber in color with tan blemishes drawn upon its end. The hilt is a lighter shade of umber with a gold filigree worked into it. The cross guard is made up of a design similar to a pair of chitin like wings. RESURRECCION:release command: Llevarlos a sus rodillas! "Bring them to their knees!"
description: After speaking the release command, Ragradia will hold the handle of Acorazado with both hands with the blade pointed up. The blade will release a pulse of energy before her lower body seemingly explodes and obscures her transformation. When her new form is visible to others again, they will see a definitive change in her body structure.
Her lower half looks like it's attached to the body of a chitin covered animal, almost like a nightmarish mix between animals when examined closely. Her waist and stomach(up to her hollow hole in the front and back) are covered in chitinous armor that connects to a pair of heavily armored legs, coming out behind her is the torso of this centaur like body where a large rump is located with an even larger pair of legs, just as heavily armored. Like many hind legs these are fairly rigid and sturdy while the fore legs are loose and flexible. The feet of these legs are graced with three claw like toes each. Extending past the large hips of this form is a 5(five) foot long tail, wide at the base and narrowing down to the tip.
Her Torso is covered by armor around her bust and shoulders, creating a pauldron and chestplate look. Her forearms and hands are layered with chitinous armor, her hands converted into three fingered claws like her feet. Her arms seem to elongate in this form as well, gaining one half of their original length. Sprouting off her back are a pair of 6(six) foot long chitinous, aerodynamic wings and grant her the capability to fly.
Her hollow also returns to some degree, spreading across the bottom half of her face. The restored mask looks like a jaw that is enclosed over her face, giving a grim visage. The spike like protrusions on the sides of her mask have elongated and also a section of mask stretches around the lower back part of her head, this causes her hair to to be bundled around the back of her head. In her release she is noticeably taller, standing at a whopping 9(nine) feet tall, from waist to the end of her tail, she is about 15(fifteen) feet long. Reference
type: Energy
stat upgrades: HAN: +3 REI: +3 HOH:: +2
techniques: For: Resurreccion Name: Pulso Temor "Dread Pulse" Type: Offensive Cooldown: 2 posts Cost: Low Range: Short Description: Closing her fist, Ragradia will concentrate reiatsu into her hand before thrusting it forward to release it. The reiatsu will break apart immediately as it flies out of her hand, spreading out in a conical dispersal that flies up to 15 meters before the energy disperses. This technique works more as a deterrent to incoming enemies.
For: Resurreccion Name: Auspicious de Temor "Aegis of Dread" Type: Defensive Cooldown: 3 posts Cost: Moderate Range: Short Description: In her Resurreccion, Ragradia can release a barrier with close proximity of her person that is octagon shaped and pulses outward form the center of its creation. This force-field like barrier allows her to defend herself from attacks that are larger in size. Attacks attempting to punch through her barrier need a HAK or SEI that is +3 or more than Ragradia's SEI. This barrier can exist for 1 post before it will dematerialize.
For: Resurreccion Name: Aniquilar Gran Oleada "Annihilating Great Surge" Type: Offense Cooldown: 3 posts Cost: High Range: Mid Description: While in flight, Ragradia will gather reiatsu around her wings before she will flap them and release a wave of cantelope sized projectiles that will cascade down upon the battlefield. These numerous projectiles will slam down in an attempt to decimate enemy ranks or attack multiple enemies at once.
For: Resurreccion Name: Gran Descarga Celestial "Grand Skyfall" Type: Offense Cooldown: 8 posts Cost: High Range: Long Description: After taking to the sky or similiarly elevated position, Ragradia will begin gathering reiatsu above her in mass quantities for the next 2 posts. After gathering a sufficient amount of reiatsu, the energy will compress into a small sphere which she will then launch at her opponents. While the sphere itself seems easy to dodge, upon impact with something, it will generate a powerful explosion that will cover a 50 foot radius.
SEGUNDA ETAPA: description: explain how the appearance of your character changes during segunda and their basic ability. It should build upon the appearance in resurreccion.
type: either list an element, or something else that clearly represents the abilities this character will gain in segunda etapa. Be aware that abilities do not stack (except stat changes), so all resurreccion techniques are replaced with the segunda etapa techniques upon release.

"A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...." Star Wars HISTORY: Her name back then was unimportant, it was never recorded nor would it be remembered by history. Ragradia was born in Principality of Wallachia in the year 1440, a time when they were accepted as a vassal to the Ottoman Empire. Her parents were simple people, trying to scrap a living out of the land as they lived in a small village in the countryside. She didn't pay much mind to the affairs taking place in the world, growing into a child and helping upon the farm when she was able bodied enough to do so.
When she was in her later years, there was a shadow sweeping across the land. A man took throne, a voivode by the name of Vlad III. A man who in later years would be called Vlad Tepes(Vlad the Impaler) aka Vlad Dracul. Moving from the countryside, her family attempted to scrap out a better living in Targoviste, the capital of Wallachia as the rival factions abound the land played games far beyond the young woman's ability understand.
Struggling to survive, Ragradia took to serving as a wench in a tavern in an attempt to help her family. When they failed to eke out a living they decided to move across the Danube and enter the lands of the Bulgarians. They didn't know the language, but they knew enough to make themselves useful in a camp when Ragradia was a young woman of twenty two(22). The year was 1462, the year that Vlad Tepes would infiltrate this same land and massacre more than twenty thousand(20,000) people.
Be them man, woman, or child, they met a gruesome end. Ragradia and her family were among the dead. When next she awoke, she would be greeted by the vision of bodies laid upon spikes almost like a morbid landscape of trees set out before her. What frightened her the most was her own naked form towering above her, a chain connecting her to it. The last memories of her life being horrid ones involving her being defiled and then murdered.
Her screams went unheard for the countless hours she struggled to understand what was happening. When the crows came to feast, she was a wreck that could do little more than weep as she lay there looking up at her own corpse. For days she lay there until finall something happened. The chain binding her broke, clattering to the ground as it seemed to have eaten away. She could only guess it was caused by the pecking of the crows.
Gathering up her chain, she headed back across the Danube, looking to head back to her home. Perhaps she could find her cousins or other family members if she returned to the old countryside village. Walking, she traversed the land in her journey home yet all the while not noticing the chain fading with time. Before long she felt the empty feeling inside of her turn to hunger. She put off stopping in an attempt to get home and see her family.
She wasn't sure what was happening, but by the time her senses came to her again and she was becoming aware of herself, she was drooling inside her Uncle's cottage. Drooling, not because of the lamb roasting over the fire but rather from her family. She couldn't stop herself, she had to feed. Descending upon them, she tore into them like bread, ripping them open, eating them piece by piece. Their screams seemed to feel on deaf ears as she sought to end her hunger.
When she finished, she felt the need subside, but she knew it was still there. She didn't even flinch at the thought of having just eaten her family, she just wanted more. Moving across Europe, she ate and she ate until the day she crossed paths with the man in black. She didn't know this man, let alone how he could see her, but he seemed determined to strike her down with his sword.
Chanting some bizarre incantation, he spewed forth some kind of magic from his weapon as the Hollow Ragradia acted on instinct. never before had she done battle, but something about it stirred feelings inside her. She couldn't place what it was but it made her want more. The battle raged for several hours before finally, Ragradia stood victorious over the man in black. She devoured him like she did every other victim she had eaten.
That wasn't the last time the warriors in black came for her. As she fought them, she learned to fight, refining her skills until she was dispatching them with greater ease. One day, while wandering, she found herself tumbling into a desert under a night sky. She wasn't sure what had happened, but the only thing she knew was that she was hungry. As she wandered the land she didn't spot a single human, but she came across other things that looked like her.
Seeing little choice after too long, Ragradia battled and devoured the next one she found. As she roamed this place, she battled and devoured other Hollows and as this happened, she began to notice them more and more. The numbers kept building, like they were being drawn together, until the feeding was all that seemed to exist. She faded into a haze and before long she was part of the collective of Hollows that would turn into a Menos.
How long had she been out of it? Had it been days? Weeks? Years? Ragradia didn't know how much time had passed or what had happened exactly, she did know that he body had changed from what it once was. The only thing that stood out in her mind from that time was a struggle, like wrestling her way through a crowd of people whilst stuck under water, trying to work your way up to the surface. She felt herself more aware than before however, seemingly understanding of what was happening as if the knowledge of some unknown teacher had been bestowed upon her. What she didn't know was that the knowledge had come from the other Hollows she had struggled to overcome in the mind of her new body.
Moving across the land, she battled other Menos like herself and in time. Her body seemed to change again after she devoured enough of the mindless Menos, becoming a bizarre creature that was capable of flight as she soared across the sands of Hueco Mundo. One day she while battling an Adjuchas like herself, the creature managed to carved a chunk of her mask off before she finished it off.
As she recovered from the battle(after devouring the defeated Adjuchas of course), she decided to remove the rest of her mask. She didn't know the consequences her actions would have as she ripped another large section of her mask off, her body metamorphosing into an Arrancar. As she rose to her feet, bare of any clothing with a sword laying in the pale sands, the newly created Arrancar felt her hungry displace into the back of her mind so much, it was like it had been displaced at long last.
Picking up the sword, she trekked the sands once more until one day she came across a building. It was in the distance, but it was the first and only structure she'd seen since her arrival in Hueco Mundo and it warranted her investigation. Time was spent amidst the Arrancar ranks and before long she proved herself strong enough to be granted the rank of Quinto Espada.
RP SAMPLE: Times had changed the world more than Ragradia could possibly know. It had been a few hundred years since she had last laid eyes upon the world and it was no longer the place she knew. An invisible stranger was what she was, standing within a concrete jungle with towering glass mountains. When night would fall upon these so called cities, lights would bloom and shower the world with their glow. It was almost like a kind of magic to her. Her comprehension of knowledge was paltry at best, even after spending a few decades with her Arrancar brethren.
Standing upon the precipice of a towering building that reflected the cityscape around her, the red haired woman closed her eyes as she let her senses shift focus from taking in the estranged beauty of the city to finding a man in black, or a shinigami as she had been informed. She felt the pulse of her Pesquisa flow outward as it sought out a potent source of reiatsu. After a short while, a sensation in her body informed her of a location where she might find what she sought.
Opening her eyes, she tensed her leg muscles like a spring being coiled before she leapt, taking off into the city as she descended into the jungle of mortals. Buildings rose around her and before long she was scouring the city in search of her prey. Stepping to the edge of a building she looked below her, hoping to catch sight of the shinigami but was instead greeted by a voice behind her.
"You should probably learn how to move with more stealth if you're trying to sneak up on me, Monster." Turning, Ragradia looked back at the Shinigami as he drew his blade. He seemed overly confident, especially against her. As he charged, Ragradia moved against him, not even drawing her own blade as she simply raised her arm. His weapon clashed against her jacket sleeve, cutting into the fabric but not managing to pierce through her skin.
The Shinigami seemed taken aback by this change in events as the woman pulled her other back and launched it forward, slamming it into the Soul Reaper's face. By the time he emerged on the other side of the billboard she had launched him through, she was already there through the use of Sonido. As he moved through the air, Ragradia reached out while grabbing him by his leg as he dangled upside down. "Who needs tact when you have might. You should have probably tried to release that pig sticker of yours or tried to kill me while my back was turned. Fatal mistake on your part."
The Arrancar pulled her arm up before swinging it down, launching the shinigami toward the street below with some speed. As he impacted, Ragradia smiled briefly to herself. He wasn't much of a fight, nor was he going to prove much more to her than a midnight snack. As her feet touched the street below from her landing, she watched the Shinigami attempt to stand up whilst using his zanpakutou as a crutch.
"I suppose I should finish this now, no point in letting you think you stand a change again me." As Ragradia spoke, she started to walk toward the shinigami but she didn't notice until moments before his hands flew up. He had been chanting the entire time he was rising to his feet before he fired a Hadou at her. When the smoke cleared, the red haired Arrancar looked down at herself and saw her body suit was destroyed in some places, including along her left leg.
She caught the glint of a number 3 along her leg before looking up to find some kind of gate vanishing. "What do you know, he's smarter than he looks. Guess I'll head back empty handed.... I was looking forward to cooking up a shinigami tonight too." Ragradia raised her hand and snapped her fingers as she opened a Garganta to take her back to Hueco Mundo.
