Name:
Tsubame Yua (Swallow, Love - affection)
Aliases/ Nicknames:
Yu =o
Physical Description:
Yua has short raven black hair that is tied at the end. It reaches above her shoulders. She has a deep brown and amber color for her eyes that are somewhat covered by wild bangs. A child size of 10 and gives a vacant expression sometimes. [making a picture] >w<!!!!!
Zanpacto:
Tsukuyomi (Moon Reader) – Azure hilt elaborated with silver silk strung in a diamond cross fashion. The cap of the katana is shaped flat and smooth oval, where designs of a lotus flower and the pale full moon in the background is engraved. The guard is designed with two petals separating in a full moon. It is not double-edged because of her history and will not lash out at the defensless.
Shikai: &Achieved&
The sword remains the same but will give a quick faint, but see-able flash. Based on the position she holds the sword with indicate what will come out of her quiet lips to activate one of her two forms.
“Flutter, Tsukuyomi” – Yua will hold her Zanpacto in front of her, showing the tip of the blade towards her enemy. By calling her sword, the blade of the sword will stretch out like wings, flap twice – then solidify into two separate curved crescent blades. She holds the two blades each in one hand. The curved blade stretches almost arm length. With her quick speed and reflexes, Yua assumes this form to fight in close range. The weapons cut with precise accuracy. This form increases her speed and mobility.
“Unchain, Tsukuyomi” – Holding her Katana with her right-hand, she extends it sideways – pointing the blade down if she is in the air or outstretched when on the ground. Tsukuyomi will literally stretch and bend into the shape of a scythe longer then Yua (six feet?). It reads rietsu and allows her to cut through some ranged attacks if she can match her opponents power - letting her pass through safely.This form is used for ranged and more defensive motives. The blade part of the weapon can be flung for ranged purposes or attached with a chain connecting the blade with the neck. Yua is not very strong hence she is child sized, and so if the weapon gets mired in something and she cannot pull it out – it will simply dissolve like moonlight and materialize in her hands again.
Bankai:
(Doesn’t have one yet. Isn't Achieved either.)
Special Accessories: Nope, she’s just like that o.o
Skills:
Yua is very skilled when it comes to deceiving other people on her true abilities. She would watch someone else rather then being watched. From this, she has become extremely observant. She can seal her spiritual power easily - can sense it well. She can play the Koto, a stringed instrument to a certain degree. She seems mediocre in demon arts, but she excels quite well in them.
Abilities:
With observation come the skills of quick study of situations in almost any asset. Although in times of pressure even Yua can have a hard time, but she always has extremely quick reflexes at all times.
Personality:
Open-minded and quiet. She speaks usually when she has to, and would rather sit there and close her eyes to listen to everyone else. Yua is someone you can be sitting by and you will not even notice, as if she wasn’t noticing anything else and so nothing sees her. She will be firm and loud if she has an urgent message to bring. Unlike her words, her decisions speak directly. Something Yua must get done for the sake of her purpose will be ensued with no exception – making her very lonely sometimes because this gives an inhospitable impression.
Biography/History:
Born to a poor family with an abusive father, Yua had a younger brother and a sick mother who could not even walk. Yua, who was 10, had the responsibilities for someone beyond her age. But she didn’t care too much. There wasn’t much room for complaining, especially with a father who drank and cursed. If she didn’t do what she was suppose to, she could get beaten. It was one day after Yua had came back from school. She saw her dad throw her brother across the room. He was only 6, and he started crying as expected. This day was a bad day for Yua. She was having problems in school and people were picking on her more often now. She went to see her mother right after school to find that she was moved from her hospital bed to the emergency room. There was only so much a child could contain before she learns the ability to be angry. Yua intercepted a hit for her brother because though she got hit a lot, her dad never hits her younger brother, ever. He wasn’t suppose to, he was only 6! She starts saying he was not their dad, just a big drunk too lazy to keep his promise to mom that he was suppose to take care of them.
Yua was battered and kicked until she couldn't feel it anymore. It didn’t really matter since she had already gave in to the beatings and died.
Of course, she had to keep the promise of taking care of the family. So, instead of heading to heaven – the place she held faith in while she was alive, she watched her home from outside. She was a spirit that watched her little brother – unwilling to leave because she needs to keep her promise and take care of him. But as time passed, each day – her father got angry and would lash out at the little child. Over time, Yua felt an incredible anger and hatred towards the world. Being a spirit allowed her to see freely. Not all families were like this; not all had horrible fathers and ill mothers. Then why must she and her brother suffer so much? This ill hatred towards humanity led to the attraction of unwanted monsters.
When she saw them, she was frightened. Huge masked creatures that she has never seen before. She ran, and it chased after her. After a while, Yua got tired and stumbled. Fortunately, a shinigami saw the hollow and destroyed it. When he turned to tell her where she had to go, Yua panicked and said she couldn’t leave until her brother was well taken care of. The shinigami points towards her house. The hollow had attracted the attention of authorities, and also some neighboring witnesses that saw – and heard her father beat her little brother. They were going to arrest him and see what was going on. Yua knew that even if her father tried to deny it, the shout “You killed my sister, you killed Yua,” from her brother was enough proof. The soul reaper asked her once more if she was ready to go. Yua wanted to know where her brother would be staying and if her mother was okay, but by looking at the man – she knew she had to go now whether she wanted to or not. So she called and asks where she should go, and he told her about the soul society and where she could head if she was strong enough. Just before she left, she wondered if her feeling of hatred and anger towards the world was in fact deep sadness.
Later she finds out what the shinigami is saying as she joined the shinigami academy. She wondered if her brother has been doing all right and dreams of finding him somewhere-happy one day.
