Name: Asao Asakobi
Alias: Who's Asao
Age: 96
Gender: Male
Class Shinigami
Faction: Gotei 13
Rank: Lieutenant 4th Division
PvP Availability: whatever
Description: Possessed of plain features, Asao is a more or less forgettable experience in the department of looks. He is not ugly but merely not something one would remember if they ever saw him again. He stands at average height and shrouds himself in a completely standard shinigami uniform with no editions or subtractions to fit personal taste. He keeps his light brown hair cut at shoulder length precisely and allows it to fall over the sides of his face as if hiding himself further from the world.
Reiatsu Color: What Reaitsu?
Personality: He does not aim to please, to be seen, or in so many cases to exist for longer than a few moments in anyone's mind. He has for most of his life been the background, the shadow cast by the shining star that is never going to amount to anything more than that shadow. He embraces his own cursed existence by never trying to stand out and always putting down himself and the amazingly brilliant things he can do as something any idiot can do. He tends to grate at wearing signs of office as they draw attention so it it usually tucked within his robes.
He has been brought up on charges of dereliction of duty on two separate occasions when he revealed his blade ability, and also refrained from dealing any damage to the opponent that would require him to report mention of the event. His desire to stay out of as many reports as humanly possible has even led to a trio of high ranking shinigami killers being left for somebody else to finish off after he carefully pretended to just be wounded and called for backup so the kills would be on somebody else's record.
Lately he has carried pamphlets outlining his key abilities as they are for the most part borderline normal everyday skills of the average shinigami.(thats means you can meta just about everything about his powers for legality an funs.)

History:
Asao's birth was foretold months in advance, and to be quite honest it was viewed as an inconvenience more than any form of blessing. His family had been given a child already not more than two years prior and with an heir to raise, and the two heads of family being needed to handle all the important affairs of 'born into riches' nobility his conception was almost thought of as abortable but for the loose tongue of a servant that had already let slip the news. The servant was found incompetent and fired and to this day cannot find work due to her loose lips. His mother and father forced themselves through all the normal things of having another child, making appearances at all times possible so as to not let this little curse ruin their standing.
When he was finally born he was handed off to a series of wet nurses and taken care of like a king of a lesser country. Where his parents would lavish praise and the bright lights on his elder brother Ichisao he was given only enough attention to make it impossible for others to talk about the neglected child. His every advancement ignored while his parents adored even a minor achievement by his brother. His brother entered the Academy and then later left it as he found it boring and preferred to focus on the business side of his family, again gaining the praise of his parents for not wasting his brilliance as a foot soldier. Asao however was done playing the game of chasing his brother and stopped. He stood in a lonely spotlight and watched his brother continue to run ever farther and farther away until he finally could never hope to catch up in his parents eyes and only then did Asao take another step forward.
He entered the academy, his parents notice only a passing question on his progress, and studied no more than any other person. He trained less than many others, and his only true talent seemed to be in hand-eye coordination using a weapon. Any weapon he picked up he was immediately adapting to as if somehow naturally attuned to it and yet when praised for it his only reply back was that it was just a stick, any idiot can swing a stick. He never once raised a hand during his classes, never brought attention to himself through misdoings or stupendous feats, and towed the line on all matters so he fell under the radar of any teacher who might think great things were to come of him.
His graduation left him holding a zanpakutō, a spare set of shinigami robes made of the simplest clothe found and a set of glares by his mother and father who in no way wanted to have to be at the event at all. He didn't seem to midn the fact much as he spent the rest of that day scaring the townfolk by talking to his weapon and laughing at the name it and so many swords were called.
He was just Asao, a second unwanted son, of the noble house of Asakobi and he would be cutting people open and sewing them shut for many decades to come within the most unnoticed division possible. Fourth.
Throughout his time he did garner some attention for his skill with medical tools but utter lack of ability to perform medical kidou to help restore a patient and yet even without it he had saved patients thought already at deaths door by being unorthodox. Not punch them to see if they wake unorthodox but cutting away at a section of wound to risky to mess with and then staunching the bleeding almost before it had begun with a lightning fast stich job.
He was rarely seen to volunteer but his assignment list always seemed to get bigger and more distanced from the main area, and always now followed by a small group of underling medics for him to make do as he says. His dispatchments were always done with splendid results but in all cases he made somebody else sign off as leader of the little brigade only a handful of times needing to sign the papers himself while somebody sent him alone to investigate just what he was doing during all the others if not leading as he had been assigned.
He appeared to actually perform his tasks better without others around him, and despite his reaitsu limitations saved more lives himself alone then his team did as a whole. With this noted by his superiors he began to see larger pay stubs and lower numbers on his rank scale until he was finally asked to take on a lieutenants position if and only if he could provide proof of a shikai form. He had been allowed afterall to attain lofty ranks as 5th seat with a blade named only Asauchi and had never proven it's worth to anyone as a releasable blade.
He tilted his head slightly, not sure really what to respond with as he withdrew the blade from it's sheath at his side and told it simple to wake up, follow closely by the name Asauchi assigned to any thousands of swords around, there was no brilliant flare of energy, no change what-so-ever in his weapons shape, and no sign of seeing any of that as a problem from Asao. Seeing the annoyance in the superiors eyes he made a simple request that he fire a kidou spell of any kidn he chose based o energy and Asao would provide him needed proof as long as he provided a gaurauntee that what was to be seen would not leave the room.
Intrigued, the superior unleashed a mid-level strength blue fire and watched as it bore down on Asao, larger then he was even. It came dangerously close to hiting before the examiner shouted out and found it unneeded for even as he shouted the energy attack was split into four seperate parts and sent flying out behind asao before it hit and dissipated in a magnificent display.
He expressed joy in seeing Asao survive the test and though not sure on the technical details of how he had done it knew that despite it's name this Asauchi was a special one. His badge was tossed to him expected to be caught but he let it fall at his feet before flipping it up and holding it at arms length as if disgusted by it. He cocked his eye at the examiner as the badge disappeared into his sleeve and voiced a question of whether he would prefer to step outside to see the second form but the examiner only chuckled thinking Asao to be joking and sent him on his way.
Asao that day muddled his way into his new quarters adorned them with a bedroll, orthopedic pillow and a small empty picture frame set just beside them both. He hadn't moved anything while people were watching, avoiding contact with them as much as humanly possible had worked for him for the years he'd been with them anyways. That night he would lay his head down to rest thinking to himself that he would wait and tell them hello tomorrow....maybe he'd send a mass letter..yeah...letters meant he didn't have to meet alot of people...and then slumber took him.
During the major war Asao seemed to completely vanish, fading into the background of the human world. All ways to track him failed as he had to energy signature, left his phone, and was vehemently despised for leaving his own Zanpakutou sitting in the same pile as his uniform. Hirugane his captain ordered the findings covered up and had him listed simply as missing in action believing in Asao even though he failed to do so for himself.
He refused to allow any other members to take hold of Asao's previous position as an lieutenant and likewise left the uniform, phone, and his zanpakutou sitting in a place of honor in the 4th divisions headquarters for several years without any sign of Asao's return. For the most part nothing seemed different, Asao had always been good at blending into th walls so his contributions to the 4th unit during recovery were not sorely missed.
During these years Asao was wandering the human world, enjoying the freedom of not being seen but by very few spiritually aware people and the though of simply being a nothingness wandering a wasteland known as civilization. However he soon got bored, he missed the times where he got a chance to say what he did was nothing special. He wanted his surgery team to marvel at his simple replacement of a achilles tendon and assure them they could have done it just as easy. He found he quite missed attention focused on him. So he found a patrol, threw a rock at it and got himself dragged back in chains to the Soul Society looking scruffy and well-tanned for his 4 year long effort.
A few strings, and the 4th division captains assurance that he found severe head trauma on his young lieutenant that must have caused him to forget who he was and wander off, and Asao was picking up his sword and uniform and reporting for duty. He even released the blade to greet it only to jump back when he remembered his sword was not called Fushichou Heki.
"Huh...yeah wait mine was this one." He said as he plucked the true Asauchi from the stand and replaced the Fushichou Heki that had, if it had been telling him the truth, the very first ever Captain Commander of the Gotei 13. "Hmm...Captains seem to like fire Zanpakutou...don't you think Asauchi?"

Name: This is just Another, Asauchi
Description:
-Sealed: His blade appears as the simple Asauchi that any nameless sword holder uses.
-Shikai: It changes in now way what-so-ever
-Bankai: Deep Hit - Imagine a skyscraper, in all it's majesty and glory. Gigantic and breathtaking for it's design and brilliance of building technique. Now imagine it's not a building and it's a blade so massive it's fucking scary. Thats basically it. His blade, only skyscraper sized.
Spirit Description:
His zanpakutou would appear to be a sword, stabbed deeply into a rock in the middle of a grassy field as far as the eye can see. If one were to enter his inner realm they'd find Asao chatting towards this sword in the stone and assume the sword was the spirit but in reality it is the rock, actually just the top of his spirits head as it lies buried underneath the dirt.
Inner World:
Empty field with a stone and a sword in it. Nice Grass though.....
Attacks:
Shallow - This ability channels energy from the exact point where he will strike and sucks it into the weapon allowing it to cut, that is literally all. It allows his weapon, previously unable to do a single damn thing, to cut even an opponent with hierro going. Still granted that large energy gaps will leave him as hopelessly unable to cut his opponent as ever he can ignore a hierro effect and cut normally on everything else using this skill. This same ability also allows him to channel energy attacks around his blade and to either side fo him, meaning energy kidou and ceros can be literally sliced from his path, though barriers he would need to make several cuts as each one would only make a line and nothing more.
Hit - Asao is able to form blades that come into existence to either side of his own offset by 1/8th inch by saying the word hit. When he does this it in short makes a new blade that will appear and hover in the spot where it was summoned, able to hold off assaults as if it were still being held by Asao himself and likewise able to cut cleanly through energy assaults. The ability to have many hands in a battle like this is critical especially for a swordsmen.
Bankai Only -
His bankai has no power, only a single and almighty limitation
Corsucant-Nano - His bankai, when summoned in all it's glory lasts for only .236 seconds. The space of a single swing before it reverts to sealed form and goes absolutely quiet.
Passive Abilities:
Your sword is Crying - A rare and somewhat odd talent, he is even capable of hearing and understanding the soul of anothers blade, though the blade may easily ignore and block him from such communicative skills if it were to try. For a blade passing by he can listen and eavesdrop as if the conversation were truly spoken aloud and not simply within anothers soul.
This-One-Is-Mine - Asao has always had a knack for talking to other peoples blades, names, thoughts, personalities. After years of seclusion upon his return he happened to pick up a Tetsujin family heirloom and forgetting his own zanpakutou's name releasedit to greet what he though was his own blade. With a shout of surprise he dropped it and moved on to his own. Asao is fully capable of wielding another persons zanpakutou in battle, though depending on the brand of zanpakutou he can wield them for several minutes on his incredibly minute energy. He cannot use any energy based attacks of any zanpakutou he happens to pick up as he cannot spare energy. (2-10 posts depending on energy requirement of Zanpaktou)
