@Hanarei


Name: Rafael Riviera (codenamed "Vigilante" by the Soul Society)


Species: Hollow (basic, has consumed approximately 300 human souls)


Affiliation: Neutral (possibly Protagonists depending on how the story goes)


History/Appearance/Personality: Rafael Riviera was a New York surgeon who died in 1985 from a self-inflicted lethal overdose of anesthetic from the hospital he worked at. His obituary, published in a local newspaper, claimed that Rafael was suffering from a bout of severe depression over a botched surgery resulting in the death of the patient, along with a subsequent medical malpractice lawsuit. As a Plus, he immediately regretted his decision when he found himself chased by rampaging hellbeasts, but thankfully managed to hide every time. For two years.


The only reason he didn't survive longer was because his Chain of Fate broke on the eve of Valentine's Day, 1987. He found himself transformed into an unnaturally thin, six-foot-three purple-skinned humanoid. A smooth mask was permanently attached to his face, and his face underneath was dominated by a large yellow eye running down the middle of his face, rotated 90 degrees. He found his mind besieged by a burning, omnipresent hunger for both humans and other creatures like himself. However, even with his memories largely gone, and his body twisted into something inhuman, his personality remained. He didn't want to kill or harm others. He hated the very idea of it.


But his invisibility to mortals put him in a prime position to see the evils of humanity. He managed to go a month without eating his first meal, and he ended his streak by when he walked by an alleyway in the Bronx and heard a woman's scream. Entering the alleyway, he heard a gunshot. When he ran to the end of the dark alley, he saw a man wearing gloves and a ski mask holstering a gun, dusting off his hands and waltzing towards him, completely unaware of the monster right in front of him. Rafael immediately killed the man and devoured his Plus, sating his hunger for the first time. That was when Rafael realized he could still benefit the World of the Living by killing criminals he caught in the act. Mafia enforcers, bank robbers, murderers, rapists...all of them fell at his hand.


When the Soul Society caught wind of a new Hollow who was exclusively targeting criminals, they gave Rafael the name "Vigilante" and sent out an order for his immediate purification. But Rafael had a useful ability: Teleportation and portal-based combat. With the ability to instantly send himself to anywhere in the planet, he's managed to evade purification for over 30 years now, and has continued killing the scum of the earth to this day, all without harming a single Shinigami.


Over the course of his career, he's picked up significant amounts of knowledge about the afterlife...and is horrified and disgusted by it. He views the Shinigami as incompetent buffoons who not only can't take care of the World of the Living but also can't care for the people they send to the afterlife. For a time, he wanted to get into Rukongai himself...until he heard about the massive inequalities and the military dictatorship the "saved" souls lived with, and immediately broke down crying as his dream was shattered. He actively avoids purification because he views reincarnation as cessation of existence. He also hates Hollows an equal amount, due to the fact that they let their hunger rule them and not the other way around, only caring for power increases at the expense of everyone around them. Overall, Rafael is an ordinary man forced into an extraordinarily awful situation, and has found himself trying to help his fellow humans the only way a Hollow knows how: violence. Recently, he's found himself in a small town in Japan, and will soon get involved in something much bigger than himself...


Powers/Abilities:


--> Portal creation: Rafael can create portals to anywhere in the world for himself and others, bypassing the need to go to Hueco Mundo using a Garganta in order to go to the World of the Living. Theoretically, he could open up a Senkaimon, but it would take more reiatsu than he has, and he doesn't know how to do it yet anyway.


--> Teleportation: Effectively works like Flash Step, but it can work over vast distances. He can travel to other countries this way, and cross oceans in an instant.


--> Portal Bullet: Rafael shoots a volley of small portals at his enemy, each the size of a marble. Due to the portal being smaller than the thing it transports, it can penetrate literally anything by transporting what they touch away from the person or object impacted, leaving a perfectly-round hole in its wake.


--> Portal Blade: A variable-length blade projected from Rafael's wrist that works on the same principles as the Portal Bullet.


--> Sniper Portal: Rafael opens his palm, focuses intently, and launches a perfectly cylindrical portal at the foe that can extend over several hundred meters to stab them from long range.


--> Portal Shield: Rafael opens up a portal to transport an incoming attack away from him. He can heft it on his arm like an actual shield, or simply use it as a barrier by having it float in the air.


--> Cero: Standard Hollow ability.


--> Bala: Standard Hollow abiity.

Aye, the idea itself isn't actually fleshed out and all yet. I don't really have much limitation on the races. Stuff like Full Bringers or filler things aren't being used, though I don't mind the idea being adapted for high-spec humans. Generally I'm open to ideas or suggestions. So long as you aren't leaning to playing a hallow really would be the big no no.
Oh...uh...I didn't see this post until I already made the CS...goddammit I should have read the fucking thread! Are you still okay with Rafael's CS or should I scrap it altogether?

Ye. I mean I can have them as equipment, but they were meant to be low tier reishi manipulation abilities. The bomb is basically a flashbang at best d:.
But good to know ^-^. Cause ye, everything else is canon stuffs.
Well quincy equipment basically it just used as a tool to suppliment their ability with Reishi manipulation. :P The shield itself doesn't have to be '1 use' or anything it can be used as much as needed (well obvious limits on the user :P ) though the flashbang thingies only would be limited in part due to the fact you kinda toss them and they might be broken or break. :P lol
@tinkerbell Shouldn't need to read through the thread completely its mostly discussing stuff (and random unrelated chatter) I'm going to have a post for the roleplay up ideally sometime during the weekend.

O i c. K den. d:


Is it alright if I post the Fullbringer CS I'm editing into a Savant to see if their powers check out and I didn't completely misunderstand what Savants can do?

This is bleach, not Howls Moving Castle or some crazy stuff!
I have to admit, I didn't vote at all myself, and I do know from the other Poll there was a 6th vote, so there should be a tie breaker either way possibly. :P lol
Oh, and btw, I broke the tiebreaker on where the town should be located just now. I voted for New York.

Yeah, I wasn't intending to be part of the main cast really. Maybe a behind-the-scenes character or something. To be honest, I'm not sure how a supporting character as a player would work in an RP. If everyone posts equally, then by definition everyone is part of the main cast since we all will get equal screen time. But I'm fine with doing something behind the scenes, like fending off the villain's main army while the protagonists take him on, or something like defending the hometown while the heroes are away.


EDIT: Also, you didn't answer my question. Should I keep the CS as a supporting character or scrap it and start over?

Sure. Its best to view them basically as shinigami just functioning a bit different and having their actual 'weapon' instead being able to take on more shapes, just with their abilities initially being like Fullbringer in terms of using the objects around them to form their weapon. Starting off it would be like a Shinigami without their Zanpakuto activated so like Ichigo at the start of the series, or those with non weapon can use very basic 'spells' of sorts based off their chosen element (maybe throwing little fire bolts around or small abilities like that).

You would have to use the CS I'll provide. The one up now is just an example I'll probably be editing so you can start working on it but expect to need to adjust stuff. I'm going to be putting a roleplay sample I'm leaning at as well with it. I'll just say its probably best to actually throw a main character to be accepted over working on some side character. I'm most likely going to be limiting acceptance into the roleplay (I don't want to have way too many people in the game, not sure what my limit will be yet but still plan on putting some cap) so you want to make sure you get in before you go fiddling with that. ^^;;

I'm not sure if she'd be closer to a Savant or to a Hi-Spec tbh.
 
@Mitchs98 It depends on what you want to keep. If you want to keep the focus on being based off a certain object exactly like Fullbringer she probably would be better as Fullbringer. If you want to adjust it to her being Savant and being just an object she creates and is based around communicating and combating against her inner dark side, then she would work best as a Savant. It depends really how you like her to evolve. ^^

Oh? I thought we weren't using Fullbringers in this? In that case I'll just have her be a full bringer.

Ah no no, Fullbringers aren't a thing in here. I said though if you want to repurpose something like a Fullbringer though you could just make it its own thing. Could be similiar maybe in part having to do with the whole 'parent attacked by hallow' deal thingy (super technical I know, my brain is tested out) just no actual full bringing group and they aren't some actual existing entity following specific rules. ^^;;
I wanted to leave what people want to create open just with the choice of some specific group fill in for shinigami. Other variations of existing ideas are perfectly allowed to be pitched as its own thing, just as a 'high-spec' that can follow some general format if you like. ^^

So. Basically. I can make something that is basically a Fullbringer, as long as it's not called a Fullbringer? :P

Basically, just without the organization structure and the origins being linked mostly to the echo, but how they work can be just like Fullbringer. :P lol

Seems legit. xD . So, basically alls I got to do is rip off the ability and change a few things. Works for me. lmao.

Yep, no problem with it honestly. ^^ I guess the best example to follow would be maybe Sado with his progression. ^^

Ye. I intend on her mostly being able to draw and make food real to start with, maybe make her punches slightly stronger than a kid her age. You know. Small somewhat useful things and expand on that. *shrug*
