Personality:
Overall, Roiben is a fairly peaceful person, only using violence as a last resort. He's a very calm and composed person, almost never showing any hint of fear or worry.Appearance:
Roiben is a friendly person to his friends and comrades. He likes to joke around and make smart-ass comments to make them laugh. When a friend or comrade is upset, he is willing to lend an ear and take time to listen, no matter how busy he is. He can't stand to see friends or comrades upset.
If your someone he doesn't like, he'll tend to be cold, even rude when conversing with you. He also likes to play mind games with people he doesn't like, getting inside their head and aggrivating them. Still, even though he doesn't like them, he won't be violent toward them unless they attack him first, and he feels his safety is in danger.
Although at times he doesn't seem like it, Roiben is a very smart and analytical person. He can figure things out like an opponents fighting style withing the first few minutes of a fight, allowing him to dodge opponents attacks easier. He can also figure out riddles and puzzles with very few hints.
The most important quality in a person to Roiben is loyalty. To those who he is loyal to, he will do almost anything for, including give his life to save theirs. When he is stabbed in the back or betrayed, he will see to it the person's life ends in hell. Breaking loyalty to him is one of the new things that can cause Roiben to lose it.
Roiben has black, shoulder legnth hair. He has sapphire blue eyes with a serious but compassionate look to them. His facial features are soft, giving him a kind and approachable look, despite the fact he usually frowns.Hollow Mask:
Roiben wears a black, hooded trenchcoat with the hood down. The trenchcoat his fitted to his body, in the arms and body. The hood of the trenchcoat has two drawstrings that he can use to adjust the fitting of the hood. Around his neck, he wears a silver chain with a small, silver cross on it. Underneath the trenchcoat, he wears a black long sleeve shirt that is also fitted to his body. His pants are black, and, like the rest of his outfit, fitted to his body, although they're not tight. On his feet, he weats black socks and black shinigami sandals.
Roiben's body frame is thin, but muscular. The muscle in his arms aren't very big, but they are dense, giving him good stregnth while at the same time giving people the impression he's not very strong, which, in fights, he uses to his advantage. His height is 5'6", and his weight is 130 lbs.
Roiben's hollow mask is a plain, white mask that completely covers his face, with holes for the eyes. The whites of his eyes become black, the blue becomes yellow, and the insides stay black. When he speaks with his mask on, you can hear his and his hollows voices, and it seems he uses telekenesis to speak, having no mouthhole on the mask.Hollow Powers:
Cero/BalaInner Hollow:
Sonido
Instant Regeneration
Power Augmentation (not really a power, but just a boost, as with all vizard)
Roiben's inner hollow looks like an inverted version of him.Zanpakuto's name:
Fuzen Raito (Evil Light)Zanpakuto Spirit:
Roiben's zanpakuto spirit takes the form of a snow wolf with black fur. The wolf has two of it's top fangs visible when it's mouth is shut, and has blood red eyes. The wolf's tail is very long, and very bushy. When it's sitting, the end of the wolf's tail normally rests in between it's front two paws. The avatar Roiben's zanpakuto spirit takes represents his bravery, stregnth, and courage. It also takes this form to show his firm belief in loyalty, as canines are the most loyal animals. The dark look of the wolf represents his fears, the pain he's felt, and his hate.Un-released Zanpakuto's Appearance:
The personality of his zanpakuto spirit contrasts it's feral appearance. His zanpakuto spirit is wise, and knows very well the art of combat, having been Roiben's primary teacher. However, when it was teaching Roiben, it was never straight foreward with him, instead giving him tests and puzzles which held the answers to his training.
The world of Roiben's zanpakuto, in it's true form, is nothing but eternal blackness in every direction, for as long as you can see and wander. When his zanpakuto world is like this, his zanpakuto spirit is practically invisible and only it's blood red eyes can be seen. Roiben's zanpakuto spirit can change the appearance of his inner world to relatively anything it wants. This was primarily used during Roiben's zanpakuto training, and again during his hollow mastery training.
Roiben's zanpakuto is a constant release type zanpakuto.Shikai Release phrase::
Roiben's zanpakuto is a constant release type zanpakuto.Shikai Appearance::
His blades in shikai and bankai lose the legnth of the nodachi before him, and look very similar to Oblivion and Oathkeeper from Kingdom Hearts in the blades and hilts. His abilities can be used at full power even without using their names.Shikai Abilities::
Kuria Raito (clear light): Roiben slams his opponent into the ground and holds out his hands. A circle with inscriptions appears in front of him, and five beams of light come out, slamming into his oppoents legs, arms, and body.Bankai Description:
Enerugi-Kuroi (Energy-Black): This technique is similar to Ichigo's Getsuga Tenshou in bankai, functioning in the same manner, but only being at a shikai power level.
Roiben grows six black seraph wings, 3 on each side. On the right side, the top two wings are black and the middle wing is white, and on the left side, the colors are opposite. His zanpakuto blades keep the same appearance. Also, like in shikai, he can use his abilities at full power without saying their name.Bankai Abilities:
Kuroi Ame (Black Rain): A passive ability were black rain falls from the sky, increasing his opponent's fatigue rate relative to how highly their zanpakuto is released, giving hollow, human, and quincy immunity to this ability. This ability doesnt affect him.Resurreccion Description:
Shinigami in shikai: 1.3x
Shinigami in bankai: 1.7x
Arrancar in resurression: 1.6x
Jajjimento (Judgement): An ability were means of light come from the sky and strike the ground in random locations for 10 seconds within a 10 yeard radius of Roiben. The light beams end out striking every area of the radius by time the technique is over. The beams can hit Roiben, and whne they strike, the use blunt force. However, the beams are seemingly transparent, and don't crush the victim.
Bankai, Stage 2: In this form, Roiben's wings fall off and float in mid air, becoming razor sharp. Like Byakuya's senbonzakura, he can manipulate these with his hands or his mind. The speed in which they move is double the speed of the senbonzakura kageyoshi while Byakuya manipulates them with his mind, but unlike Byakuya's, in which using his hands increases the speed threefold, when Roiben uses his hands, it just makes the movement of the feathers more precise. He also has his zanpakuto blades in this form, but cannot use his other bankai abilities.
In Resurreccion, his hair grows longer and wilder, doing down to his mid back. Two black stripes go over his cheeks, and under his eyes. His hollow mask remains consist of small, loop earrings, hidden by his hair most of the time. His hollow hole is in his forehead.Resurreccion Abilities:
His trenchcoat becomes white with a black stripe next to the zipper. His shirt and pants become white as well, and his zanpakuto become dual nodachi's, the left nodachi white and right nodachi black. Every time his blades are swung, energy is released in a high density beam. On his back, he has 4 wings that take an X shape. On the right side, the top wing is black and bottom wing is white, and reverse on the other side.
Yin-Yang Cero: Roiben charges a black cero in his right hand, and a white cero in his left hand. He fires both cero, and the attacks combine, making a white and black colored cero. This technique has a homing nature.Skill Level: Kidou: Advanced

History/Background:
In life, Roiben Masuno lived in current day Tokyo in the 1800's. In life, he had three, unnatural powers that first surfaced for him at the age of 5. Due to this, hollows could sense his reiatsu, and made him a target. He could always seem to defeat these monsters, and was the only one who could see them. However, the hollow always caused mass destruction before he could defeat them, leading his village to believe him to be cursed, or possessed. In order to protect the safety of the village, he was exiled. He died a few weeks after that from malnourishment. He was sent to the soul society by a low seated officer by the name of Kisuke Urahara.
When he woke up in the soul society, he remembered his life on earth, and was afraid of facing the same fate. However, a woman named Asuka Ryu found him and took him into her home. She took care of him and raised him like her own son, on the very outskirts of the soul society. She could sense Roiben's reiatsu, which had stayed with him in the process of his death, and knew the soul society would evetually come for him. She trained him in zanjutsu using wooden swords, and in kidou, having once been a captain herself. However, she didn't want Roiben to know of her history. When he was the equivilant of a human 10 year old, he was already able to control kidou in the 30's and was fairly proficient with zanjutsu.
It was during this time that the same shinigami who performed his Konso, Kisuke Urahara, had come to talk to him about joining the shinigami academy. When he asked Asuka if she wanted him to go, she told him to follow his heart. Roiben, not wanting to leave his mother, reluctantly joined the shinigami academy, but swore never to forget his mother and visit her often.
In the academy, based on his previous experience in combat, he was placed in the advanced class, and was among the top of his class. He lived at the shihouin mansion, under the request of Urahara. He kept good on his word and visited his mother often. He graduated from the academy after only 5 years instead of the usual six, and, like Shuhei Hisagi, had aquired his shikai release in his final year in the academy. He was placed in the 12th division, and added his mother's last name to his, becoming Roiben Masuno-Ryu.
In the 12th division, he worked hard and excelled in his assignments. Being placed immediately as a low rank seated officer, responsibility fell upon him quick. However, he wasn't liked by many of the non seated officers, having been in the divison longer than him and still not earning a seat. They often mocked him becuase of his youth, and said that would prevent him from being able to fulfil his duties. Still, he ignored them and performed to the best of his ability, and proving himself useful to his division. However, this also caused him to be very antisocial, not liking the way the unseated officers treated him and being afraid to be treated like that by others. Also, becuase of his reponsibilities, be rarely had time to visit his mother, which made him upset.
As years passed, he rose in ranks in the average time it took shinigami to rise in ranks. He was younger than most others in the divison, giving them doubt about his abilities. Still, he continued to prove himself useful. At this time, he had been in the soul society for 20 years, and had also regained the ability to use his human life abilities, although they worked much like kidou. At this time, he was the fifth seat of the 12th division. This was also the time Kisuke Urahara had taken his place as captain. The two had a very good relationship, as more than captain and subordinate. Also, he had more time to spend with his mother, which made him happy.
10 years after Urahara's appointment, the fateful night for Urahara and the vizard came about. He sat in his room, unable to fall asleep, having a feeling something bad would happen. When he awoke, Urahara was leaning over him. He told Roiben to follow him, they went to go pick up ther two others Urahara needed, and they left the soul society, not to return for 100 years.
Urahara, Yoruichi, and Tessai began to train the three kids. However, Roiben spent much time with the vizard, what the ones who were hollowfied by Aizen called themselves. They began to teach Roiben whwen he visited them, knowing why Urahara brought the kids with them. For 50 years, Roiben trained with Yoruichi and the vizard, not socializing much with the other kids that had been brought along. However, there was a female rouge shinigami he spent a lot of time with, and who was staying with the vizards. Her name was Rayne Celestia. She was one of the few people he considered a friend.
50 years after leaving the soul society, Urahara had told him about his created method for obtaining bankai, and had allowed him to use it. Roiben's physical body was transferred to his zanpakuto's inner world, which took the form of a world were all his worst fears were a reality. In order to achieve his bankai, he had to overcome all his fears. This took him a matter of 3 and a half days, which put much strain on his body. After his bankai training, he took a week rest to restore his energy. His bankai was different in others in one way, though. It would take him 15 years to master instead of 10.
After mastering bankai, Roiben spent most of the rest of his time training with the vizard until Aizen betrayed the soul society. However, 10 years before Aizen's betrayal, he and Rayne had started dating. After Aizen betrayed the soul society, Roiben took his place as the ninth division captain, and the other twom took the other two open spots, and Rayne had become his thrid seat. Roiben had no wish to be a captain, but Rayne wanted to protect the soul society, and he wanted to make her happy. A few days before the war began, they had a wedding ceremony. Roiben and Rayne had been assigned a special task by Urahara before they went to the town to do war... he wanted them to infiltrate Hueco Mundo and steal the Hogyoku. They infiltrated Hueco Mundo, and got the Hogyoku, but had one thing to do before escaping to Karakura--they had to defeat the cuatro, Ulquiorra. The battle with him had been going well, until he released into his segunda etapa. He used his instataneous Cero Oscuras on Rayne, who was unable to avoid the attack, and was killed. Following, he shot one at Roiben, who blocked the move with a kidou of his own, but used the explosion to feign his death. Ulquiorra then sealed his zanpakuto, and opened a garganta to the town. After Ulquiorra left, Roiben stole the hogyoku, and tapped into it's powers. He gained dominance over his inner hollow in only a half hour, and took a half hour to train further, after being healed by Captain Unohana.
When he and the others went to the fake karakura town, Gin and Tousen had just been defeated, and he arrived on time for the battle with Aizen. He and the other two who were immune to the Kyoka Suigetsu used their sight to help tell the other captains were Aizen was, and after a long battle, defeated the tyrant Aizen.
Instead of returning to the soul society, he stayed back on earth, and formed an organization for vizard. In front of their headquarters, he made a grave for his fallen wife. Roiben spent the next 100 years after Aizen's death building an army for the vizard, and helping the rouge shinigami build an organization of their own.
