Name: Alvin Joukuu
Alias: Alvin
Age: real313, appear-21
Gender: Male
Faction: Vaizard
Rank: Personal Enforcer
PVP availability: Yes
Description: Alvin stands 5 feet, 8 inches tall in his dressed down black suit he looks well muscled at 200 pounds. The front of his suit jacket hangs open showing a Spaztic Reality logo blazed across a forest green shirt. In place of the too common black dress shoes Alvin wears leather hiking boots, and were other guards would holster a gun Alvin carries only an empty holder. With an obvious switch over to the more cliché, a pair of round beetle sunglasses perches on top of his nose, from behind which his green eyes bemusedly look out. Alvin’s hair is in a constant mess and stands out against his black suit jacket as it is blonde.
Reiatsu Color: Deep green
Personality: Alvin is very laid back and easy going, to the point were he has been chastised by his superiors. He prefers to take a glass half full view of life, looking to the good in almost any situation, and being reading and willing to forgive past transgressions. Seemingly at odds with his optimistic outlook is his humour, which can be derogatory and snide at times, though he doesn’t mean it to be. Alvin knows his jokes can hurt others if they don’t know him and so will joke only with those he sees as friends or when under stress. Once swords have been drawn Alvin does away with most of his happy attitude, he doesn’t lose his half smile unless things get very bad, or he feels upset. While Alvin enjoys battle he doesn’t like death without a reason, one of the reasons for his vigilance against the hollows. Alvin has an odd dislike of spiders, he blames it on the fact that things shouldn’t have that many eyes and legs, and undead.
Family: none
Weapon: Alvin uses his zanpakuto to fight though he rarely takes it out. He keeps his zanpakuto in a hidden fold of his suit jacket, though his pulling it out is far too obvious to surprise anyone save a normal human. His zanpakuto is named Shukunmori.

History: Alvin has a fairly long reaching past. He can trace his roots back to ancient Norse origins but remembers almost nothing of those times. Alvin can see the arboreal forests and long ships of his “first life”, he can smell the sea, and the loam of the woods, but only gets these feelings of nostalgia. The first full memories Alvin has are from his time in West Rukongai and the beginning of his “Second life”. During his time in Rukongai Alvin spent his days traveling the breadth of Mt. Koifushi, it is also the time when he decided to go by the name of Alvin Joukuu as it rang truest to what he could remember of his true name. Alvin’s third life began long after his self naming and time in the 13th divisions, and is the life he currents walks through. Alvin can look back on his life and be happy though nostalgic.
With his first death came Alvin’s new life and purpose. His very first full memory is of seeing the sky over Mt. Koifushi spread to the horizons over his head and green leaves falling over him. For around 50 years he spent wondering that mountain and the surrounding area, avoiding other souls as he tried to find himself. One day while walking along a path coming as near a branch of houses as he was willing to go Alvin heard a scream rip from an inhuman mouth. Thinking it to be one of the animals of the woods he ventured close to see what would cause it to make such a noise. Once in sight though he saw not an animal but an unreal sight. Hovering over a small child was a white snake like creature with a glaring mask. Without think, and being a fairly large person, Alvin threw himself at the beast, which with an almost casual flick sent him smashing into a tree. Lying amidst the shattered shards of the tree Alvin looked on helplessly as this monster bowed over the child. With the world slipping in and out of focus around him Alvin could think only of how this life would end as his last one had, without mourning or memory. Nearly falling over Alvin put his hand down to steady himself, breaking his wrist as his hand came to rest on a broken piece of wood. As the monster opened its jaws to consume the child Alvin heard, as if in the trees were whispering, a voice say “Well, save him.” The voice spoke with a tune of exasperation and expectation, looking around to see who it was who could sit here as the child was eaten and have the gall to mock at the same time. Having failed to see anyone around Alvin’s eyes fell down to his were his hand lay, not on a shard of the tree but on the wooden sheath of a katana. Looking up again and seeing that it was not to late Alvin whipped the sword out of the sheath and, catching the monster off guard sliced its arm off. With a hiss like a train’s horn the monster shot off into the woods. Sheathing the sword Alvin looked down on the child. Seeing that it was unhurt, Alvin gave one last look around for the person who had spoken, picked up the child and set off to return it to the houses of the other souls. From that time onward Alvin new that he had found a new purpose too life.
Soon after the finding of his Zanpakuto, Alvin learned of a group of people who worked to guard the citizens of both the real and spiritual worlds, the Shinigami. With his zanpakuto Alvin also found his confidence, using this new sill he set out to apply to the Shinigami academy. In classes of both weapon skill and speed Alvin performed very well, in his classes on kidou he did well. Through out his time at the academy Alvin also grew as a person, or spirit, he became more assertive and confident in his own abilities. Alvin even went so far as to make a few friends, who he knew he would protect until his last breath. All too soon his time at the academy ended, but Alvin moved on with a happy heart. Upon leaving the academy Alvin applied for and was excepted into the 13th division, were he never attained a seat but none the less was known, at least to he lesser seats. Alvin spent many years he can look back on with pride and a sense of fulfilment.
On the eve of one fine summer day Alvin was asked to take charge of small group of division 13 members whose mission it was to defend a group of minor nobles who were meeting on Earth. Excited about the prospect of having a command position Alvin prepared for months before hand. He trained for hours with the men he was to take with him, and spent even more time scouting the meeting place, a quit grove half way up a mountain when the time finally came for him to head out with his men, Alvin felt he couldn’t be more prepared. Everything was going as normal, even smoothly for the meeting. The sun was out, no large spirit signatures had appeared, and the nobles were even agreeing, feeling confident Alvin decided to walk around the perimeter of the meeting area. As he walked Alvin’s mind wandered, his thoughts turned the completion of the mission and a victorious return to Soul Society with his mind elsewhere he never saw the blow that came. Suddenly a sharp pain burst out from his chest in a flower of blood. Looking down he saw a sword sticking out of his chest, turn as he heard the sounds of a battle being finished near the meeting place he saw a man wearing the symbol of the 13th division walking away. Then the world went black.
Alvin opened his eyes to a seen very much like what he saw when first he appeared in Soul Society, except this one had trees that stretched up far past where he could see, and some how it felt like he belonged here. Looking around Alvin saw that he was a few hundred feet above the floor of the forest and that a man wearing white, and who was 8 feet tall, was standing on the bough of the next tree over. Doing a double take Alvin looked back at the other man, he was wearing completely white robes and had a bull horned helm on hanging from his shoulders was a Norse rain cape. In his hand he carried Shukunmori, Alvin’s zanpakuto in his hands. The man’s face was hidden in the shadow of the helm he wore, with only his red glowing eyes burning out from underneath it. The smell of brine wafted out from him obviously at odds with the woods around them. With a feral snarl and pointed toothed smile the man in white launched himself at Alvin. Alvin having no time to speak and barely any to wonder why this man could wield Shukunmori reacted with a parry. Bring his sword around in what should have been a killing blow Alvin met the cold steel of his zanpakuto. With the bare deflection of anther blow Alvin jumped back to attempt to make sense of what was going on, but the helmed man gave him no room, pressing the attack. The white warrior launched a flurry of blows which once more Alvin was able to block, but when he tried to counter with a backhand swing Alvin’s swing was swept aside by the next blow of the white man. The strength of that blow sent Alvin’s arm wide and the white man landed a blow on Alvin’s torso. Blood flowered and the white man smiled. Gasping Alvin realized that while he had a better technique this other man was much stronger, he would have to switch his method. When the next blow form the white man came Alvin ducked under it, dropping to his knees, and gave two overhead slashes which landed on the white man’s stomach. The wounds didn’t even seem to slow him down though, immediately he brought Shukunmori’s hilt down towards Alvin’s head. Alvin was just barely able to dodge the crippling blow by rolling to the side, a roll that took him dangerously close to the edge. Nearly tipping over he righted himself by throwing his arms forward, letting the momentum carry him Alvin ran into the white man, a move that apparently took him off guard as they both plummeted off their branch. The white man quickly recovering from his surprise brought his sword up for a punch that hit Alvin square in the jaw. Taking the full force of the blow, which almost sent consciousness fleeing away, Alvin grabbed the other man’s hand and stabbed up into the white man’s armpit. Feeling the blade sink deep into flesh and scrape along bone Alvin smiled a smile which was perfectly mimicked by other man, whose eyes were closing. Looking over the strangers shoulder Alvin saw the ground swiftly approaching, as the world went black for the second time.
When next Alvin awoke it would be to the birth of what he would come to call his third life. Looking around Alvin saw not a forest of trees but one of glass, somehow he had come to be in a city, or at least a large town. Wandering the streets in a daze and hoping to find a familiar face Alvin picked up the sent of strong spirit energy. Moving towards it he came to a club called Spaztic Reality, entering he walked up to the man whose spirit seemed so, confused, yet oddly familiar. Walking up to this man, Alvin asked him for help. At first the man didn’t seem to understand what Alvin wanted, pointing out the bar and the bathrooms. When Alvin persisted, going so far as to mention Shinigami, the stranger’s eyes let up and he quickly led Alvin away to office. There Alvin was introduced to another man, someone who apparently outranked the bouncer from the bar, this new man told Alvin many things. He told him about the Vizard and the hollow inside, about Arrancar and how they and Vizards were opposites, and finally the man told Alvin the basics of how to control the monster that was inside him. At the end of this the man offered Alvin a job at Viz co and Spaztic reality, as well as a new purpose. Alvin agreed, relishing the chance to protect his new people and make up for his past failure. Taking on the new role as guardian, as an enforcer Alvin set off to explore his new powers and the world seen in this new light, he had a whole new life to live and wasn’t going to waste it. Form there… well that is still being written.

Name: Shukunmori
Description:
Sealed: In its sealed state Shukunmori looks very much like a standard zanpakuto. The only difference in its appearance is that it has a longer hilt, one measuring 10 inches.
Shikai: When in his shikai state Shukunmori changes drastically. The hilt of the blade shrinks to only 6 inches; the blade becomes straight and double edged, also shrinking to 29 inches. The cross guard of Shukunmori expands into a solid rounded bar of green metal while the pommel morphs into a cocked hat (think half circle). The most striking change though is that part of Shukunmori breaks off in a ball of light to rest on Alvin’s left arm. There it expands and solidifies into a metal round shield 38 inches in diameter. The shield has a patter that causes it to resemble wood on the out facing side, and 3 small blades expand from the edge facing away from Alvin. Shukunmori’s summon phrase is “Block the destruction Shukunmori.” Shukunmori means forest lord.
Bankai: Not yet achieved.
Mask Description: Alvin’s mask resembles the face of a Norse berserker. From the forehead sprout two 6 inch long bull like horns pointing straight out, a single black line is slashed about an inch under each eye, and the mouth is spread in a blood thirsty grin. In the center of the forehead is a Celtic knot. The mask completely covers Alvin’s face leaving only his blonde hair showing. When wearing it his eyes turn blood red and his voice comes out in a low growl.
Spirit and Inner Hollow Description: Shukunmori, Alvin’s spirit, resembles a large bear. He stands 10 feet at the shoulder and in place of fur he is covered in a fine coat of small fir needles. When Shukunmori speaks his voice echoes like thunder in a forest and the smell of trees and loam follows in his wake, Shukunmori’s eyes are bright green, to the point of almost glowing. Shukunmori has a generally calm and nice attitude but when angered he rages.
Alvin’s inner hollow has the same build as him, and his same style hair, though it is white. He always appears wearing pure white robes and a white, horned Viking helm, a tattered, white Norse rain cloak falls from his shoulders. Were ever he travels he takes the briny stink of the ocean with him. Alvin’s inner hollow speaks even rarer then Shukunmori does preferring to grunt, or give a war bellow. Unlike Shukunmori, Alvin’s inner hollow is not at all calm it is in a constantly bad move and will drop into a berserk rage at the drop of a hat.
Attacks: Shikai and Bankai- Aodageki- Alvin concentrates his reiatsu into the tip of his blade and with a swing sends it flying out. The energy appears as a green arc and does moderate damage. Alternatively Alvin can keep it in the sword till he swings with it in a normal attack adding the power of his normal blow to that of Aodageki. Aodageki strikes with about twice the normal (in what ever form he is in) strength of Alvin’s swing and has a 2 turn cooldown.
Shikai- Goei Ashinami- Alvin charges his shield with reiatsu then throws it to intercept a blow. As it travels the shield begins to glow with the deep green color of Alvin's reiatsu. Once thrown the shield flies to intercept a blow directed at Alvin's target. The shield takes the blow in place of the original target hopefully negating it, and flying back to Alvin, or if the attack is to powerful still blocking it but the force will send Alvin's shield spinning off, in which case Alvin must spend 1 post going after it, he may use ranged attacks but not use melee attacks in the same post. No cooldown, if successful.
Shikai- Ha Boyou- Alvin focuses completely on fighting shutting the rest of the world out ass he attunes himself to Shukunmori. He tumbles and glides across the field of battle almost as if dancing, his sword his perfect partner. In this heightened straight of awareness Alvin can exploit flaws in the defences of others he couldn’t even see normally. Alvin’s weapon skill and footwork increase by 10 points, this takes 1 round to charge as he limbers up and concentrates lasts for 3 posts and is only usable once per battle (thread). Alvin can not use this when he has his mask on as his emotions take over in that state and he can not concentrate enough.
Passive Abilities: Any form- Aokaze- all natural plants (including those that naturally grow in Soul Society and Hueco Mundo) grow better when in a 20ft radius of Alvin. They need less water, their colors are more vibrant, and they grow bigger. This can not be used as an attack nor will it help those attacking him. Alvin may turn it on and off.
