The Bleeding

Name: Ukimi

Manifestation:A black panther with a reddish tinge to his fur.His eyes glow red and his fangs seem to be stained with blood.

Release Phrase:"Kill 'em"

Family:Blood

Level:Shikai

Sealed Zanpaktou: Ukimi takes the sealed state of a Nodachi of 65 inches.(5'5,being that Hiken Yuraku is 6'1,he has little problems with the size of the sword.)Its handle is wrapped in black cloth with red kanji symbols running down its side.The hilt of the blade is shaped like a shuriken with four curved points.The blade is usually worn strapped to Yuraku's back because of its size and can deal a great amount of damage for the same reason.

Shikai:Ukimi shrinks down to the size of a regular katana.The reverse side the blade is made of an unbreakable glass is hollow and holds a large amount of blood in it that never coagulates. The curved points of the hilt straighten out and then bends to point in the same direction as the blade tip.A red mist surrounds and the zanpakutou at all times.

Shikai Ability:Ukimi grants Yuraku control over all blood that is spilled in battle and the blood in the blade which can seep out through the bottom of the blade,near the hilt.This control allows him to mold and control the blood into any form of function he wants.He an even make the blood into a sharpened weapon,if need be.

Techniques:
Tachisaki - Hiken molds the blood around him into 5000 sharp needles that he sends toward his opponent.He can control these needles for 6 posts before they return to their simple blood form.(5 post cooldown)

Nokogiri - Hiken molds the blood into three large,very sharp buzzsaws that hurl at his opponent either one at a time,or all together.Each blade lasts for two posts longer than the one before it,with the first blade dissipating after only two posts,the second after 4 and the final one after 6.(7 post cooldown,can only be used 5 times in total per release)

ok Approved, except how big are the needles exactly?

Each needle is only 1/2 inch long,like the needles that come with syringes.

Fair enough.
