Character Alignment: Neutral Good
Appearance: Vlad is 6 foot 2 inches tall with a average muscle build due to him favoring speed over strength, although he's not weak by any stretch of the imagination, having a thin but deceptively strong body type, a similar build to a karate practitioner in this reguard.
He has a light peach skin tone and cobalt hair with it coming down in a rough V shape, covering the middle of his forehead with four, precisely done spikes of hair running down both sides of his head, with the spikes curving up ninety degrees towards the direction they are on (ninety degrees left for the two facing the left and ninety degrees right for the two facing the right) with short sideburns to emphasize the contours of his face
Because of his blue hair, some people, mostly girls called him "Sky-kun" because of his sky-blue hair.
He has deep, onyx eyes and sharp but intelligent features, giving him a somewhat cold but alluring look. His eyes reflect a look of disdain as he generally doesn't being near people.
His face looks to be set in a permanent scowl, he has the same expression when fighting, letting little pass the net, his expression changes drastically when something catches him off guard to one of rare shock at whatever had surprised him. When Sad, his features soften and his eyes take on a deeper black color, although he doesn't cry as he believes in suffering in silence to let his tears out
Style/Clothing: Vlad's quincy outfit is a white monk's habit with the design altered for the quincy, with a large cowl and cloak that is split in four sections near his waist, each section having the symbol of the quincy cross near the ends of the sections and on the back of the habit with white jogging bottoms and matching ankle boots.
The rims of the sections are colored red as well as two, decorative cuts in the fabric of the cowl near the top so they are visible but only with the first third of the "cuts" being visible.
He wears the seele schniders on a back-mounted harness with the seele schniders fitting horizontally in the harness, with the top one facing left, the one below it facing right and the pattern is the same for the bottom two. He stores Gintō on arm mounted holsters that are fitted to his upper arm on both arms, each of these Gintō stores up to three Gintō tubes per holster.
when not wearing his quincy outfit, he wears the Karakura high school uniform like Uryu from the fullbring arc, as shown in the image below:
During a formal event, he wears a white and red suit, with a four-piece suit, consisting of a white shirt, matching trousers and jacket and a red waistcoat, with this, he has in addition a red neck tie and handkerchief, the handkerchief kept in a side pocket on his jacket, the back of the jacket has a basic red cross woven into the jacket, the red cross is also on top his white ankle boots, which are a variation of the ones he wears with his quincy outfit. A image of the suit is down below:
He also has a ornate, silver pocket watch with a quincy cross on the lid and connect to his trouser pocket with a silver chain.
Tattoo's/Scars/Etc: None
Personality: Like I've stated earlier, Vlad's normal looks cold and analytical, normal keeping to himself, either in study or reading books on quantum physics or medieval Britain but he's good natured at heart but he has a hard time admitting it from pushing those feelings aside for so long, he can break down quick once he's at his breaking point.
when he has to be with people, he speaks politely but he normally comes across as somewhat snobbish or stuck up and may often offend people without realizing it, although this is part of his desire to be left alone so he does things that will allow him to be alone, including ignoring people completely, although he prefers a small group of one to two people at a time instead of large groups like those at parties or large events.
When meeting new people, Vlad tends to ignore them, letting another friend he knows speak for him, this is especially true is the person he is meeting has more then three people in the group, although he will speak to those who come to him individually and he will be more calmer and relax because of it.
When facing a enemy, Vlad tends to be silent and to keep his face blank of any response and hidden under his cowl unless his cowl is knocked back to reveal his face which then will allow his opponent to see his face and any expressions he makes while his hood is removed, although once the fight is over, he'll return the cowl back to cover his face, he also makes a habit of talking to the dying enemy to pray for them to find rest before they die.
When those he cares or close friends about are targeted for attacks, he will first deflected the attack or get in the way, using his bow as a shield to stop the attack before getting them out of danger, either to the nearest safe place or using Gritz to protect them while he fights, which he will then deactivate once the battle is over.

• Shinigami: as a quincy, Vlad has a pet hate of shinigami, although he will work with them from time to time but only if it concerns him, if not, if anyone even mentions a shinigami, they will end up with a arrow in the ass
• Being underestimated: Vlad hate during a fight or just in general being underestimated by anyone, either due to his body not being super muscular or by people underestimating his reiatsu which most of the time works in Vlad's favor but does its part to annoy him

• One of Vlad's goals is to get his clan out of hiding so both he and his clansmen and women can regain their pride again

• the other goal is to beat the strongest of the shinigami to prove that quincys are better then shinigami
Strengths:
• Keen intelligence: Being one of the top grade students in Karakura high, being in the top ten highest performing students, he's highly intelligent, being able understand complex subjects like quantum physics easily, when this is put into other realms, he can understand concepts quickly and also has learnt the ability to lip read, this is in cases of whenever he needs to follow a conversation through a window were he can't hear or if he's too far away to hear what they are saying verbally
• Tailoring: Vlad knows enough about tailoring to not only design his quincy outfit and his formal wear but can keep them in good working order and can easily adapt them, given enough time that is
• adapt strategist: Vlad is also a great strategist, able to accurately take shots in a array of ways to either take out the target in one shot or disable them by taking out their joints and tendons to stop them from moving, he also uses his collection of seele schnider, Gintō and his bow to create traps and is able to know enough of his location to lead his opponents into them, this also is useful for escaping places and people without being followed, normally making used of his Hirenkyaku to escape those who try to follow him
• level-headedness: either during a exam or in battle, one of Vlad's most valuable traits is that he can, for the most part, keep his head together and remain focused on the task at hand, weather that's acing a test or defeating his opponent, this is a useful skill indeed

• Temper: Vlad is prove to losing his temper quicker then most if pressured, especially if someone is pushing his berserker button
• total breakdown: one of the reasons Vlad reads the books on quantum physics is that he fears his power to breakdown objects into Reishi going out of control and breaking down every object he touches complete or as he calls it "Total breakdown"
• superiority complex: Vlad has a superiority complex, which goes some way to explain the looks of disdain he gives people as well as one of reasons he prefers to be alone since no one else can stand him looking down on them because he believes he's better then everyone else
• curry: Vlad can't stand over-spiced curry, although his doesn't mind a mild curry like a kurma but too hot makes his throat hurt, which may lead to a humorous fire breathing fit before taking down a whole bottle of milk to cool his throat, normal when he gets over-spiced curry is when his friends wish to play a practical joke on him
Clan Name: The Abbau clan
Quincy Cross: Vlad's quincy cross is a standard cross that is black in color with a ruby set into the center of the crossway with a small, thin black chain connected to the top of the cross
Quincy Artifacts: seele schnider (x4), Gintō (x6)
Artifact Name: seele schnider
Artifact Description: Vlad uses two versions of seele schnider; two that are the standard variation but two are specially modified versions as they have two ends instead of one, getting the end of the seele schnider a Y-shape, similar to a tuning fork, although the two ends can be straighten out into a T-shape by the two ends being on a hinge
Artifact Purpose/Ability: Vlad's use of seele schnider is by using them for bladed combat and to steal away and break down the spirit particles more easily for his use, he uses the tuning fork shaped ones for pinning an enemy against a wall or another hand surface to slow their movements down
Vlad can use seele schnider's strongest technique which is down below:
Spell Name: Sprenger
Spell incantation: none
Spell ability: by firing all four of his seele schnider into a X-formation around the target, forming a barrier with four beams of Reishi connect to a flat square-shape panel of reishi at the target's feet, Vlad then uses a Gintō and pours the liquid reishi onto the top of the nearest seele schnider which burst at the top with spirit energy before all the seele schnider burst and send the reishi down the four beams, hitting the panel and exploding upwards and outwards up to where the four seele schnider at up, acting as the barrier for the explosion, due to vlad's unique reiatsu, this also causes a fire to spread out, setting fire to the surrounded area, made from the condensed reishi, further increasing the damage caused by Sprenger
Artifact Name: Gintō
Artifact Description: Gintōs are small, silver tubes with the quincy cross on one side of the tube which quincys use to store liquid Reishi which quincys use to perform spells around releasing the Reishi in the Gintō and, with most of the spells, use a incantation similar to the shinigami's kido to complete the technique, although once the Gintō is drained of Reishi, the quincy cannot use the spells connected to Gintō until they are refilled with the liquid Reishi which is difficult to do during a battle
Artifact Purpose/Ability: Vlad uses these Gintō for the various Gintō technqies used by the quincy, these include:
Spell Name: Gritz
Spell incantation: "A silver rod strikes, the five-fingered stone bed"
Spell ability: by throwing a Gintō at the target, once it gets within range, which then spends out into a quincy cross that is the size of the target which then closes in, creating a complete cylinder of solid reishi around the target, trapping them similar to a iron maiden but without the spikes on the inside, Vlad can use this to trap opponents, protect people by using Gritz on them to protect them since Gritz can also be used as a defensive option as well and he can even use it on himself to protect himself from a fatal attack although it will break after
Spell Name: Heizen
Spell incantation: "Feel the wrath of battle and accept this sacred chalice"
Spell ability: By throwing four Gintō into the air, creates a rectangular cuboined of solid Reishi that is fired at the opponent to split apart whatever is in its way, this technique is manly used to deal with hollows since this technique is the most effective in deal with them since other quincy and other beings of strong spiritual power like the shinigami can counter this technique easily using Kido or in the case of other quincys, using their arrows to break it or using Heizen against it
Spell Name: Ausfall
Spell incantation: "Light converts into five, The bearer of division strikes and moulds this cross"
Spell ability: Ausfall is a Abbau clan technique, the use throws two Gintō at a wall or whatever they need to get through, after speaking the incantation, the two Gintō spread out, forming a quincy cross within a circle, this then breaks down whatever is in the way, a wall for example, with a hole the size of a normal human being, this makes it useful for escapes or to quickly lead a opponent somewhere and disintegrating the wall in front would be much quickly then going round

Battle Specs
________________________________________
Fighting Style: Vlad knows some forms of Karate, although he rarely has to use it due to him being a long-range fighter, only coming to rely on it when he force to or has to get in close using either the blades on his bow or by using seele schnider to cut his opponents or making use of his tuning fork style seele schnider to fix his opponents to walls or other surfaces to stop their movements.
Vlad trains the hard way, forever attempting to find his limit and to go pass that limit to increase his own power, if he did train with someone else, he would try to push them to their breaking point but without having to kill them because it goes that there's a difference between training someone and killing them because if he killed them, then there would be no point in training them since they would be dead and dead people can't be of any help.
During a fight, he takes a different approach, depending on the skill and power of his opponents, if they are the same in strength to him, he'll run his normal course of leading them into traps or picking them off from a distance, if this works, he'll pray for the dying opponent before finishing them, taking a record of his pray into his prayer count record.
but when he fight's a opponent stronger then him, he still tries to lead them into traps in hopes to wear them down enough so they would be on a more even playing field, if this doesn't work, he rely on his stronger attacks like Sprenger and Saishū kuroi honō: Fenikkusu to take out his opponents, if all else fails and he has reached his limit, he'll run and lead the his opponent away from the other people before leading his opponents to a clearing when he springs his final trap: a deep spike pit with the bottom contain burning hot liquid reishi, whenh is opponent falls in, he'll seal the top with a plate of solid reishi with a quincy cross on top to either finally kill his opponent or at least, buy time until some who can shows up to defeat it

History:
Vlad was born into the Abbau clan of quincy's while they were still in hiding, his parents made sure that as he grew up, he was not to leave the confines of their comunity so Vlad spent his time going around the quincy hidden comunity to which he made a friend from another, a young girl who he spent most of his childhood years with playing and studying in the ways of the quincy
while in his teens, Vlad and Lilly were studying together one day when Lilly told Vlad she was heading outside to get a surprise for him, he nodded and saw he a few moments later outside in the garden, walking into the shed when blue light poured from the windows as the shed started disintegrating around her, Vlad quick ran for help but it was too late as the shed broke down enough to collapse on top of her so by the time the adult quincys had shown up to get her out, she was dead, hit hard in the head by a falling beam and caused her skull to break, Vlad cried at the loss of his friend as he watch the other adult quincys take her lifeless body away.
The teacher spoke to the class a few days after the funeral had taken place about the dangers of their power; that if left uncontrolled, they could break down more then they need and cause things to collapse around them as in the case of Lilly, he told us that this would be a solemn remind not to abuse the power they were given
when he was eighteen years old, he escaped the quincy hidden community, tired of being in hiding for so long that it felt like it was choking him, having completed his theory on his training as well as taking his newly acquired quincy cross with him, after a week of grueling travel, he made his way to Karakura town with only his quincy outfit and a backpack to his name, he didn't have anywhere to go so he wondered around and saw a women with a chain in her chest, being chase by a fish headed hollow so he quickly rushed to the women's aid but getting smack away by the hollow, knocking onto his back as the women scream in terror as the hollow grabbed her, gripping his hand, he stood up and as the hollow was going to bite into the women's neck, the hollow ended up with a arrow in the head, making the hollow roar in pain, dropping the women in the process.
the hollow turned its head to find that Vlad had activated his quincy cross for the first time, his bow of solid reishi notch with another arrow as he fired, hitting the hollow directly between the eyes before the flame-like fletching on the end of the arrow exploded, destroying the hollow within a ball of fiery reishi.
After that, he got the idea to become a contract assassin, finding big time people with plenty of money to spare gave him person after person to kill, allowing him to train himself on the go but soon found himself as a natural at it and what made him more popular was that once the reishi arrow had kill their targets, the arrow would disappear, leaving no trace of him anywhere near the crime scene but Vlad began to tire of the contracts and decided he wanted to start learning again so, after buying a modest two-bed house, he enlisted at Karakura high to continue his studies while he did the contracts as a side business.
Now, he's a tailor which he does as his main business, making clothes for either the rich and famous to the everyday people, he would design and make them clothes and would charge them accordingly, although he still takes a contract every so often to boost his income but for now, enjoys reading and training his bow and himself to make the best use of both his bow and his unique ability to break down objects into reishi to one day, get his parents to join him in the outside world and be proud of what he manage to do without them
Rp Sample:
Vlad sighed as he leaned on the railings surround the roof of the school, looking at towards the slowly sinking sun.
"I wonder...Father...mother...if you could see me now, what would you say? would you be proud of me or reject me? what if..."Vlad thought to himself when a voice rang out
"Sky-kun!" one of the female students called out as she walked over to him, she had a fair body shape, long dark red hair and purple eyes, Vlad felt himself getting annoyed at that, ever since he enrolled at Karakura high, the girls gave him the nickname "sky-kun" because of his sky blue hair and the worse thing was she knew it annoyed him so that's why the girls said it to see if they could get his reaction it but he stuck it up and let them call him it, finding it a waste of time to tell them to stop since they wouldn't listen to him anyway, he turn around and look at the girl in question
"Yes, rose; what is it?" Vlad asked her impatiently, really hoping to get down to the problem without too much of this girl's annoyance to deal with.
Can you walk me home, sky-kun? please? Rose asked him, giving him those wide eyes like a cat with big, wide pupils and felt his resolve crumble as there was no stopping a cute girl with those wide, sparkly eyes, he sighed and took her hand
"Come on then" Vlad told her before walking off with her in tow, giving a yip of joy at her little victory as she follow her "sky-kun" back to her home, she turned around to thank him but there was no one there apart from a rustling of the wind to speak of the emptiness that no long had a human presence, she sighed sadly and looked to the sinking sun
Why, my sky-kun, why do you always leave me, you show kindness and then leave before you can be thanked...why must you be so sad, sky-kun? why won't you let me into your heart..." Rose thought to herself as she looked at the sun to ponder before heading inside, closing the door behind her as she did so...

when he has to be with people, he speaks politely but he normally comes across as somewhat snobbish or stuck up and may often offend people without realizing it, although this is part of his desire to be left alone so he does things that will allow him to be alone, including ignoring people completely, although he prefers a small group of one to two people at a time instead of large groups like those at parties or large events.
When meeting new people, Vlad tends to ignore them, letting another friend he knows speak for him, this is especially true is the person he is meeting has more then three people in the group, although he will speak to those who come to him individually and he will be more calmer and relax because of it.
When facing a enemy, Vlad tends to be silent and to keep his face blank of any response and hidden under his cowl unless his cowl is knocked back to reveal his face which then will allow his opponent to see his face and any expressions he makes while his hood is removed, although once the fight is over, he'll return the cowl back to cover his face, he also makes a habit of talking to the dying enemy to pray for them to find rest before they die.
When those he cares or close friends about are targeted for attacks, he will first deflected the attack or get in the way, using his bow as a shield to stop the attack before getting them out of danger, either to the nearest safe place or using Gritz to protect them while he fights, which he will then deactivate once the battle is over.

• Being called a nerd: one of the few things that gets Vlad's angry is being called a "nerd" or other forms of that word, anyone who does will end being a human pincushion, no matter who or what said it
• Shinigami: as a quincy, Vlad has a pet hate of shinigami, although he will work with them from time to time but only if it concerns him, if not, if anyone even mentions a shinigami, they will end up with a arrow in the ass
• Being underestimated: Vlad hate during a fight or just in general being underestimated by anyone, either due to his body not being super muscular or by people underestimating his reiatsu which most of the time works in Vlad's favor but does its part to annoy him
• Pineapples: Vlad also dislikes pineapples as he finds it too much effort to get into and finds the fruit too watery for his taste

• One of Vlad's goals is to get his clan out of hiding so both he and his clansmen and women can regain their pride again
• He dreams of the day when his parents can come out of hiding and be proud of him but until then, he lives on as the last Abbau quincy
• the other goal is to beat the strongest of the shinigami to prove that quincys are better then shinigami
Strengths:
• Keen intelligence: Being one of the top grade students in Karakura high, being in the top ten highest performing students, he's highly intelligent, being able understand complex subjects like quantum physics easily, when this is put into other realms, he can understand concepts quickly and also has learnt the ability to lip read, this is in cases of whenever he needs to follow a conversation through a window were he can't hear or if he's too far away to hear what they are saying verbally
• Tailoring: Vlad knows enough about tailoring to not only design his quincy outfit and his formal wear but can keep them in good working order and can easily adapt them, given enough time that is
• adapt strategist: Vlad is also a great strategist, able to accurately take shots in a array of ways to either take out the target in one shot or disable them by taking out their joints and tendons to stop them from moving, he also uses his collection of seele schnider, Gintō and his bow to create traps and is able to know enough of his location to lead his opponents into them, this also is useful for escaping places and people without being followed, normally making used of his Hirenkyaku to escape those who try to follow him
• level-headedness: either during a exam or in battle, one of Vlad's most valuable traits is that he can, for the most part, keep his head together and remain focused on the task at hand, weather that's acing a test or defeating his opponent, this is a useful skill indeed
• Honorable: Vlad's follows the quincy's code of honor to protect those close to him and to uphold the honor of the quincys, no matter the cost to himself, that's his vow as the only active member of the abbau quincys
Fears & Weaknesses:

• Temper: Vlad is prove to losing his temper quicker then most if pressured, especially if someone is pushing his berserker button
• total breakdown: one of the reasons Vlad reads the books on quantum physics is that he fears his power to breakdown objects into Reishi going out of control and breaking down every object he touches complete or as he calls it "Total breakdown"
• superiority complex: Vlad has a superiority complex, which goes some way to explain the looks of disdain he gives people as well as one of reasons he prefers to be alone since no one else can stand him looking down on them because he believes he's better then everyone else
• curry: Vlad can't stand over-spiced curry, although his doesn't mind a mild curry like a kurma but too hot makes his throat hurt, which may lead to a humorous fire breathing fit before taking down a whole bottle of milk to cool his throat, normal when he gets over-spiced curry is when his friends wish to play a practical joke on him
Clan Name: The Abbau clan
Quincy Cross: Vlad's quincy cross is a standard cross that is black in color with a ruby set into the center of the crossway with a small, thin black chain connected to the top of the cross
Quincy Artifacts: seele schnider (x4), Gintō (x6)
Artifact Name: seele schnider
Artifact Description: Vlad uses two versions of seele schnider; two that are the standard variation but two are specially modified versions as they have two ends instead of one, getting the end of the seele schnider a Y-shape, similar to a tuning fork, although the two ends can be straighten out into a T-shape by the two ends being on a hinge
Artifact Purpose/Ability: Vlad's use of seele schnider is by using them for bladed combat and to steal away and break down the spirit particles more easily for his use, he uses the tuning fork shaped ones for pinning an enemy against a wall or another hand surface to slow their movements down
Vlad can use seele schnider's strongest technique which is down below:
Spell Name: Sprenger
Spell incantation: none
Spell ability: by firing all four of his seele schnider into a X-formation around the target, forming a barrier with four beams of Reishi connect to a flat square-shape panel of reishi at the target's feet, Vlad then uses a Gintō and pours the liquid reishi onto the top of the nearest seele schnider which burst at the top with spirit energy before all the seele schnider burst and send the reishi down the four beams, hitting the panel and exploding upwards and outwards up to where the four seele schnider at up, acting as the barrier for the explosion, due to vlad's unique reiatsu, this also causes a fire to spread out, setting fire to the surrounded area, made from the condensed reishi, further increasing the damage caused by Sprenger
Artifact Name: Gintō
Artifact Description: Gintōs are small, silver tubes with the quincy cross on one side of the tube which quincys use to store liquid Reishi which quincys use to perform spells around releasing the Reishi in the Gintō and, with most of the spells, use a incantation similar to the shinigami's kido to complete the technique, although once the Gintō is drained of Reishi, the quincy cannot use the spells connected to Gintō until they are refilled with the liquid Reishi which is difficult to do during a battle
Artifact Purpose/Ability: Vlad uses these Gintō for the various Gintō technqies used by the quincy, these include:
Spell Name: Gritz
Spell incantation: "A silver rod strikes, the five-fingered stone bed"
Spell ability: by throwing a Gintō at the target, once it gets within range, which then spends out into a quincy cross that is the size of the target which then closes in, creating a complete cylinder of solid reishi around the target, trapping them similar to a iron maiden but without the spikes on the inside, Vlad can use this to trap opponents, protect people by using Gritz on them to protect them since Gritz can also be used as a defensive option as well and he can even use it on himself to protect himself from a fatal attack although it will break after
Spell Name: Heizen
Spell incantation: "Feel the wrath of battle and accept this sacred chalice"
Spell ability: By throwing four Gintō into the air, creates a rectangular cuboined of solid Reishi that is fired at the opponent to split apart whatever is in its way, this technique is manly used to deal with hollows since this technique is the most effective in deal with them since other quincy and other beings of strong spiritual power like the shinigami can counter this technique easily using Kido or in the case of other quincys, using their arrows to break it or using Heizen against it
Spell Name: Ausfall
Spell incantation: "Light converts into five, The bearer of division strikes and moulds this cross"
Spell ability: Ausfall is a Abbau clan technique, the use throws two Gintō at a wall or whatever they need to get through, after speaking the incantation, the two Gintō spread out, forming a quincy cross within a circle, this then breaks down whatever is in the way, a wall for example, with a hole the size of a normal human being, this makes it useful for escapes or to quickly lead a opponent somewhere and disintegrating the wall in front would be much quickly then going round
________________________________________
Battle Specs
________________________________________
Fighting Style: Vlad knows some forms of Karate, although he rarely has to use it due to him being a long-range fighter, only coming to rely on it when he force to or has to get in close using either the blades on his bow or by using seele schnider to cut his opponents or making use of his tuning fork style seele schnider to fix his opponents to walls or other surfaces to stop their movements.
Vlad trains the hard way, forever attempting to find his limit and to go pass that limit to increase his own power, if he did train with someone else, he would try to push them to their breaking point but without having to kill them because it goes that there's a difference between training someone and killing them because if he killed them, then there would be no point in training them since they would be dead and dead people can't be of any help.
During a fight, he takes a different approach, depending on the skill and power of his opponents, if they are the same in strength to him, he'll run his normal course of leading them into traps or picking them off from a distance, if this works, he'll pray for the dying opponent before finishing them, taking a record of his pray into his prayer count record.
but when he fight's a opponent stronger then him, he still tries to lead them into traps in hopes to wear them down enough so they would be on a more even playing field, if this doesn't work, he rely on his stronger attacks like Sprenger and Saishū kuroi honō: Fenikkusu to take out his opponents, if all else fails and he has reached his limit, he'll run and lead the his opponent away from the other people before leading his opponents to a clearing when he springs his final trap: a deep spike pit with the bottom contain burning hot liquid reishi, whenh is opponent falls in, he'll seal the top with a plate of solid reishi with a quincy cross on top to either finally kill his opponent or at least, buy time until some who can shows up to defeat it

History:
Vlad was born into the Abbau clan of quincy's while they were still in hiding, his parents made sure that as he grew up, he was not to leave the confines of their comunity so Vlad spent his time going around the quincy hidden comunity to which he made a friend from another, a young girl who he spent most of his childhood years with playing and studying in the ways of the quincy
while in his teens, Vlad and Lilly were studying together one day when Lilly told Vlad she was heading outside to get a surprise for him, he nodded and saw he a few moments later outside in the garden, walking into the shed when blue light poured from the windows as the shed started disintegrating around her, Vlad quick ran for help but it was too late as the shed broke down enough to collapse on top of her so by the time the adult quincys had shown up to get her out, she was dead, hit hard in the head by a falling beam and caused her skull to break, Vlad cried at the loss of his friend as he watch the other adult quincys take her lifeless body away.
The teacher spoke to the class a few days after the funeral had taken place about the dangers of their power; that if left uncontrolled, they could break down more then they need and cause things to collapse around them as in the case of Lilly, he told us that this would be a solemn remind not to abuse the power they were given
when he was eighteen years old, he escaped the quincy hidden community, tired of being in hiding for so long that it felt like it was choking him, having completed his theory on his training as well as taking his newly acquired quincy cross with him, after a week of grueling travel, he made his way to Karakura town with only his quincy outfit and a backpack to his name, he didn't have anywhere to go so he wondered around and saw a women with a chain in her chest, being chase by a fish headed hollow so he quickly rushed to the women's aid but getting smack away by the hollow, knocking onto his back as the women scream in terror as the hollow grabbed her, gripping his hand, he stood up and as the hollow was going to bite into the women's neck, the hollow ended up with a arrow in the head, making the hollow roar in pain, dropping the women in the process.
the hollow turned its head to find that Vlad had activated his quincy cross for the first time, his bow of solid reishi notch with another arrow as he fired, hitting the hollow directly between the eyes before the flame-like fletching on the end of the arrow exploded, destroying the hollow within a ball of fiery reishi.
After that, he got the idea to become a contract assassin, finding big time people with plenty of money to spare gave him person after person to kill, allowing him to train himself on the go but soon found himself as a natural at it and what made him more popular was that once the reishi arrow had kill their targets, the arrow would disappear, leaving no trace of him anywhere near the crime scene but Vlad began to tire of the contracts and decided he wanted to start learning again so, after buying a modest two-bed house, he enlisted at Karakura high to continue his studies while he did the contracts as a side business.
Now, he's a tailor which he does as his main business, making clothes for either the rich and famous to the everyday people, he would design and make them clothes and would charge them accordingly, although he still takes a contract every so often to boost his income but for now, enjoys reading and training his bow and himself to make the best use of both his bow and his unique ability to break down objects into reishi to one day, get his parents to join him in the outside world and be proud of what he manage to do without them
Rp Sample:
Vlad sighed as he leaned on the railings surround the roof of the school, looking at towards the slowly sinking sun.
"I wonder...Father...mother...if you could see me now, what would you say? would you be proud of me or reject me? what if..."Vlad thought to himself when a voice rang out
"Sky-kun!" one of the female students called out as she walked over to him, she had a fair body shape, long dark red hair and purple eyes, Vlad felt himself getting annoyed at that, ever since he enrolled at Karakura high, the girls gave him the nickname "sky-kun" because of his sky blue hair and the worse thing was she knew it annoyed him so that's why the girls said it to see if they could get his reaction it but he stuck it up and let them call him it, finding it a waste of time to tell them to stop since they wouldn't listen to him anyway, he turn around and look at the girl in question
"Yes, rose; what is it?" Vlad asked her impatiently, really hoping to get down to the problem without too much of this girl's annoyance to deal with.
Can you walk me home, sky-kun? please? Rose asked him, giving him those wide eyes like a cat with big, wide pupils and felt his resolve crumble as there was no stopping a cute girl with those wide, sparkly eyes, he sighed and took her hand
"Come on then" Vlad told her before walking off with her in tow, giving a yip of joy at her little victory as she follow her "sky-kun" back to her home, she turned around to thank him but there was no one there apart from a rustling of the wind to speak of the emptiness that no long had a human presence, she sighed sadly and looked to the sinking sun
Why, my sky-kun, why do you always leave me, you show kindness and then leave before you can be thanked...why must you be so sad, sky-kun? why won't you let me into your heart..." Rose thought to herself as she looked at the sun to ponder before heading inside, closing the door behind her as she did so...
