Basic Information
Name: Keto Matsumoto
Age: 18
True Age: 123
Sex: male
Personality: Keto is usually calm and quiet, he doesn't like to talk to a lot of people. He was always the odd man out because he never really fit into any category. He never speaks up for himself, unless the time really calls for it when he knows he did something and someone and or something tries to take credit for it. During battle, Ketos personality changes, making him more animalistic and savage then the average Shinigami.

Physical Traits: Short black hair, Dull crimson colored eyes

Fighting Style
General Fighting Style: Keto is usually a straight forward fighter, he was taught to be like this by his Rukon father. Once angered in battle he starts to switch between kendo to one-handed swordplay. As Keto gets hit by Kidou and the other various fighting styles and is insulted by his opponents his eyes start to glow showing the true animalistic strength locked away inside him.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Keto's Zanjutsu skill grows with the escalation of the battle. His Kidou skills are limited due to the amount of training he did with his Zanpakuto. Shunpo on the other hand escalates as his anger grows unleashing the beast within.
Zanpakuto & Kidou
Sealed Appearance: Ketos Zanpakuto looks like a standard Katana. The wrap on the handle is black and a dark shade of pink to represent Ookami and the Cherry Blossom Tree
Spirit’s Name: Ookami
Spirit’s Appearance:Ookami is a giant red eyed, black wolf
Spirit’s Personality: Ookami is much like Keto, Docile until angered
Inner World: Ookami lives in a wide open field that is inhabited by an Ancient Cherry Blossom Tree and Ookami himself
Kidou: Keto only knows Hadō #33. Sōkatsui while using the incantation "Ye lord! Mask of flesh and bone, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance, upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws."
Shikai
Call Out Command: "Flourish and Lacerate, Ookami"
Appearance: Ookamis blade shortens turning the Zanpakuto into a Wakazashi, releasing 25 razor sharp Cherry Blossom petals into the air around Keto, making a slight vortex barrier around him. Keto can also use these Petals for attacks, like snatching them from the air and using them like throwing stars or using his blade to send them flying.
Abilities: At Ketos will he can shorten the blade down to the size of a Tanto, releasing 50 of the lethal blade like Cherry Blossom petals around him like before when it first shortens. The final touch of Ookami is that the blade can disappear down to the hilt, releasing 75 petals after Keto used up the 50 that he summoned before. He can move his left hand in a series of motions to maneuver the vortex and manipulate it's shape.
Boosts/Limits: As Keto uses the last 75 petals the blade returns to normal, sealing the Spirits power away until his emotions call upon it once more in battle, willing the blade to become the Shikai once more.
Bankai
New Name/Command: Tsuki Ookami. Realease Command:"Devour, Tsuki Ookami"
Appearance: The Bankai form of Ookami is the exact same as the Shikai form.
Abilities: Like the Shikai form of Ookami it shortens the blade down, summoning the lethal petals that shield Keto from attacks and that he uses to attack with. The amount of petals Keto can summon are doubled. Ranging from 100-175, 100 being when he first unleashes the Bankai and 175 being when there is only the hilt of the sword left. Keto can move his left hand in a series of motions to maneuver the vortex and manipulate its shape.
Boosts: When Ketos Bankai is awakened his eyes glow a blood red, but his eyes aren't his own, they are the eyes of Ookami, making his Zanjutsu a lot more stronger than usual. The only Kidou he knows becomes a lot stronger, enlongating the range of the attack. Ketos Shunpo becomes that of a wolf, making faster than the usual flash step, making him able to perform multiple as a time in rapid succession.
Inner Hollow
Appearance: Ketos inner hollow looks like a demented version of Ookami, but in a lycanthropic humanoid like form. The mask the hollow wears resmbles a wolfs face in a way. The hollow also has Ketos Zanpakuto strapped to its side, but the sheathe is empty
Personality: Ketos inner hollow loves to fight, making him like the legendary Kenpachi Zaraki. The hollow acts just like Keto in ever aspect, but twisted in certain way. Instead of not speaking at times, he is boastful and beligerant. The hollow likes to cause havic and death to those who underestimate him or call him weak or even challenge him.
Mask
Appearance: The Mask that Keto dons resembles a wolf. Long canines come off the mask. the mask in completely black except for certain outlines around the eyes which are blood red. The blood red color is also on the tips of the canines.
Abilities: Ketos mask gives him increased durability, stamina and speed by x2
Hollow Powers: Keto is able to fire a blood red cero from the palm of either of his hands. His Cero grows in strength as he becomes more enraged in battle. He also gains the minor healing properties that certain hollows possess (Like when Ichigo turned into a Hollow while training with Hiyori and the other Vizards, Ketos is minor healing.)
Full Vizard Form
Appearance: When Keto enters this form his skin becomes pure white. The blood red markings from his mask scale down his chest. his nails grow slightly longer and are tinted red, like they are stained with blood and the same with his toe nails. His kimono is shredded and his hakamas are tattered at the bottoms. His face now looks like the one he dons when he uses Otekas powers. Keto also becomes slightly wolf like in some aspects. He growls more instead of screeching like most and snarls.
Power Boosts: Ketos destructive power is increased by X3 as well as his stamina, durability and speed.
Back Drop
Background: Keto was the only one out of his Rukon family that was different. His views on things and the way he was trained. He never had an affinity for Kidou. He always took an affinity for swordplay, always training with his Rukon father. Keto was given the Surname Matsumoto once he was taken in, making him somehow related to or a close relative to Lieutenant Rangiku Matsumoto of Squad 10.
Keto was forced to try and become a Shinigami by his Rukon father because of their close relative Rangiku. Keto never wanted to become a shinigami, but obeyed so he would not be labeled as a "Mistake" to the family. With all his will Keto searched for the Zanpakuto that would take him in and manifest it's soul and power with his. Once Keto found it in the shape of the Cherry Blossom Tree and the Wolf, Ookami. One Zanpakuto housed two spirits inside that coincided with each other because one guarded the other. Ookami the guardian of the Cherry Blossom Tree.
After acquiring Ookami, Keto was sent to be presented to the 13 Court Guard Captains to see if he would become a Shinigami after all.
And then my whole life changed forever: Keto lay In bed. His body feverish. His body was littered with wounds. Some how he got sick and that wasn't a good sign. He lay in his office, groaning in pain. He had never felt this way before. Maybe he should of listened and went to the Barracks of Squad 4 to get healed. For several nights he stayed in his office. He rolled off his nice bed that he had placed int his office for when he needed to rest. Then the day came. As he lay on his bed, he started to gag and soon a white, pasty liquid rupted from his mouth. This white, pasty, vile liquid quickly started to form a mask on the Captains face. He screamed, not knowing what was going on, he was scared. Finally it took hold and he was held there as the mask formed on his face.
Damn. He thought to himself as the mask solidified.
He stayed in his office not wanting anyone to come near him incase he started to act aggressive. People showed up, but he never let them in, he always told them to go away. He suffered through this experience of being alone. He fought with the thing inside him he hated most, a hollow.
Finally he defeated his now inner hollow and gained control of himself. He had defeated the change and wasn't an aggressive mindless freak of nature that most shinigami became from this form of transformatiom. He started to feel better and went to the training grounds to see the rest of is Squad. He felt powerful and was going to tell his Squad when he was ready.
Side Notes: Reiatsu Concentration: Keto focuses his reiatsu to his fists and feet, making them able to block a Sealed Zanpakuto and Shikai and also to enhance his hand to hand striking power. Now that Keto has become a vizard he is able to catch and fling ceros that are weaker then he actually is. (This is an all around ability)
RP Sample: Nerviousness, that was all he knew as he stood in the ruthless examining eyes of the men and women who were about to decide his fate. His dull magicless crimson eyes looked onward at the Head Captain. His ears prone to hear every little bit of conversation.
His mind reeled as he thought of what his father had him do, he needed to bring honor to his family so he obeyed and acquired the weapon he needed. Ookami had taken him in and became part of him. The standard looking Zanpakuto was securely fastened to his hip the glossy black sheathe normal like most. With a small smile of satisfication, Keto congradulated himself in his mind and heard the spirit wolf growl with contentment at the young man he had chosen. He straightened as he heard the Head Captain clear his throat. His mind focused on listening and absorbing what the man said.
"Keto Matsumoto. You have acquired your Zanpakuto, but you have not proven how well you are able to wield it. You are a rare case to be chosen by two spirits, one Ookami and one the Cherry Blossom Tree and I know why they both reside within your blade. You need balance and they both represent that of which you need." Said the Head Captain as he stood and looked the young man square in the eyes. "I will send you on a mission, porve to us you can use your Zanpaktuo and you will become a Shinigami and be put in Squad 10 with your relative Rangiku Matsumoto. You will show your skills in the Human World, fighting Hollow until we get a full report on your skills" With that Keto bowed to his superiors and looked at the blade that was secured to his side.
I will not fail them or myself. This is my own personal honor to uphold. Keto thought to himself as he quickly replied with a short "As you wish." and turned to leave the Captains and take on his trial.
I know I am to be watched, but by whom? Rangiku or Captain Hitsugaya. Keto asked himself as he walked to the place where he or someone else was going to open the gateway to the human world for him.
Once he arrived at the designated spot, his eyes widened at the sight of both Rangiku and Captain Hitsugaya waiting for him with the gateway open and ready for their departure.
"You must be the guy we have to escort and report to the Head Captain about." Hitsugaya Said without looking at Keto as he approached. "Y..... Yes Sir." Keto replied as he looked over at Rangiku and sighed.
I hope I don't fail this with my relative watching. keto thought to himself and the straightened himself out and looked at Captain Hitsugaya.
"Captain Hitsugaya, I am ready for departure." Keto said with respect in his shaky insecure voice. His dull crimson eyes seemed to spark with life as he started smile and ofcourse Rangiku noticed this, rarely seeing Keto and his rarely lively eyes, only when he was guarding his siblings did she ever see him lively. Hitsugaya chuckled at what Keto said and suddenly opened the gateway. keto was awe struck at the sight of it, but kept himself inline just incase both Rangiku and Captain Hitsugaya were watching him.
