Scheiße!
And things were going pretty smooth up until now!
You successfully hunted and killed a man without freaking out, you managed to quench your thirst for souls and you managed to get some information about this "afterlife".
Then everything went from merely bleak to completely hopeless.
A quincy, a known hunter of hollows, have appeared before you and opened fire on you and the two other hollows you've met.
As you tried to run you got shot in the face and lost one of your gillstalks as a result.
But the best part is, that the large hollow whom you were actually a little affraid of attacked this madwoman and managed to get himself killed almost instantly.
Luckily for you he managed to create a very effective diversion by crashing into the ground.
The alleyway in which you are lying is full of rubble, well even more full than it already was.
In the large crater lies the dead hollow while right next to you is the quincy under a large pile or debris.
You are not sure how long that will keep her occupied, if at all.
As you are trying to get your bearings you realise just how much your ears are ringing from the explosion like entrance of the atrophied hollow. Through the ringing you can hear someone speaking, perhaps even shouting, you can't make it out as it's too muffled to understand.

After a few failed attempts you manage to get on your feet, standing upright once more you grasp your head from the pain and you realise your mask has repaired itself, convenient.

As you try to find the source of the noise you can see Stern, the primate hollow crouching next to his ally, he is rocking the lifeless body back and forth with both arms, tears pouring out from the eyeholes of his mask.
"Gramps! Gramps! Say something, please! I beg you, just get up and let's leave! GRAMPS!"
It's clear he can't contain himself anymore, as he stops moving the corpse around hoping he would open his eyes and just simply lowered his forehead onto the large hollows chest.
>>
As your head finally clears you get ready for your next action, feeling how dire the situation is.
On one hand running away with your tail between your legs and hoping your ability to hide will save you does seem tempting.
On the other you don't think the woman is in as bad of a shape as you are and she'd probably easily catch up to you if you aren't fast enough, so evening the odds might be a good idea.
Meanwhile you can't decide what to do with the boy, you are glad Gramps decided for some reason to save you but not glad enough to risk your own life saving his associate just because you owe him one.

>Run as fast as you can, everything else will be a waste of your time
>Try and make sure your assailant won't be able to pursue you easily
>Other? (write-in)

What to do about the hollows, if anything?

This is the perfect opportunity to get away.
The old guy is dead, so repaying your debt to him kind of lost its point. As for the kid, you can't feel sorry for him if he lacks the basic survival skills to get away on his own.

You move one leg after the other, but with your stature fast movement is difficult. Damn it! Why do you have such short and stumpy legs?!

"Move for gods sake! Move! MOVE!"

The thoughts echo in your mind, in your desperation you can't do much else but mentally push yourself to the limits.

Suddenly something snaps in you and with an audible boom your body almost explodes with energy, propelling you several hundred meters.

The second boom appears as you rapidly decelerate and finally stop. Looking back you see just how far you traveled with such insane speed, dodging everything that came in your path. At first your mind starts to wonder about what you did, but you quickly remind yourself that you are far from safe. You try and supress your pressure and sneak away.

You can't believe your luck, with the distance that you gained and the ability to hide yourself you are in the clear.

Unfortunately you are getting hungry again...
>>
"Did that thing just...? No, it couldn't have."

Eryka stands up as she tosses the debris away, like it's weightless. She dusts her white uniform off as she observes the one remaining hollow in front of her.
It's crying, uncommon but certainly nothing to get surprised about. These monsters will try anything to convince others of their innocence, they don't deserve any mercy.

She forms her Heilig Bogen, notches the arrow and destroys the hollows head by shooting it in the back of its skull. The body disintegrates and the other one begins to deteriorate.
With the task done she makes her way home.

"I have to report this."
>>
>>46009663
Neat
>>
"All right. I think I lost her."

You sigh as you crawl into one of the empty train cars parked at the railway station. You feel exhausted, moreso than you felt when you woke up. And with the sun on the rise you feel strangely comfortable, sure you barely avoided certain death and you are hungry again, but now you feel more comfortable with your current situation and learned a few tricks to help you.

You should however decide on your next course of action.

Train Sonido. I have no idea what Mucus is, and I don't like sneak builds.
>>
>>46010032
I can understand personal taste, but being able to conceal Reiatsu is unprecedented. It's a fucking amazing ability.
>>
>>46010124

It really is personal taste. Stealth builds are overdone IMO.

Hey OP you might want to announce you're running on /wqdt/.

Sneak training wins and with a 22 it will be stable to use outside of combat, writing
>>
>>46010159
I'm just saying we can learn how to use it and then work on something else later. It really is an amazing skill that Hollows don't naturally know how to do.
>>
>>46010177
Please post the DC's
>>
>>46010181
To be fair Sonido was a technique reserved for vasto Lorde memos or Arrancars too. We are something else.


Stealth+Sonido is a broken ability for a low level hollow like us.
>>
>>46010227
I dunno man, we might be some sort of Menos with all these weird powers.
>>
>>46010220
It was probably a degrees of power sort of roll.
>>
>>46010220
no DC's for these tasks, regardless of what you roll you'd have succeeded. Rolling determined how well you performed.
>>
>>46010250
Isn't menos just the term for all low level hollows? I'm not sure what you're trying to say.
>>
>>46010328
Memos is short for Menos Grande. Aka the Hollows that ate so many souls they became amalgam monsters if great power.
>>
*Right, so I can sense others who exert a lot of power and since they can sense me too hiding might be a good technique to develop. I'll have to try and get a grasp on how this works precisely.*

You think to yourself and begin practicing your suppression ability. It won't be easy, as it seems to operate on instinct rather than consciousness, but practice makes perfect.

Meanwhile:

Eryka arrives to her home after a long night of patrolling the streets of the capital. She is tired and could not wish for more than a long relaxing bath to was away all the stress of a long night full of work. As she opens the door her husband is waiting for her, all dressed and ready to go to work.

"Everything in order dear?"

Alfons welcomes her wife with a gentle hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"Not really, we need to talk."

Although she wanted to relax, there are other pressing matters to attend to.
>>
>>46010349
Menos Grande have no personality at all so we can't be one. They're just mindless.

Standard hollows do have abilities... Kingfisher had the stealth thing going on I believe.

We don't sound human/powerful enough to be one of the... aducas? Something like that.
>>
>>46010388
Keep in mind, Adjuchas are a brand of menos.

Menos Grande are just the big fuckers. Vasto Lorde or whatever are also menos, albeit the highest level menos.

Menos Grande as they are commonly referred to are "Gillian" class. Which are the weakest.

I highly doubt we are a menos.
>>
>>46010388
Menos Grande classes
Gilean the weakest and most numerous of the Menos, mindless but strong.

Adjuchas: when a Gilean gains a mind and personality. About the size of a standard hollow, but strong enough to fight a lieutenant solo.


Vasto Lorde: smallest of the Menos at human sized. However strongest fastest and toughest by far. Able to go toe to toe with captains and immune to hollow hunger. The apex of Hollow evolution naturally.


Normally Sonido is reserved for Vasto Lorde or Arrancars. We're neither. We're a normal-ish hollow.
>>
>>46010447
See now I'm confused. You're not >>46010250
This guy right? Because I think he's wrong. IF you're him... then you've confused the fuck out of me by saying first we are then aren't a menos.
>>
Oh and Spookyng, you should link the thread on twitter when it goes live.
>>
>>46010500
Different people, I was just throwing out that we might be a Menos because most of the powers we have are reserved for them.
>>
>>46010532
If we were we we'd be in Hueco Mundo not here.

You kept practicing in the empty car for what seemed like hours. Unfortunately you don't have a watch, nor could you wear one on your thick arms.
But you managed to make good progress, for starters you figured out that you CAN'T actually hide our own power. In actuality the odd slime which your body constantly produces and covers your whole form seems to absorb your reiatsu making it feel much weaker than it actually is.
It's handy that you can apparently adjust just how much of it gets absorbed by the mucus.
Although it's useless when you are under a lot of stress, like in combat but nevertheless you can completely hide your presence now if needed.

You were about to stop, satisfied with the results of your practice session, when you become aware of a large mass of souls moving around.

As you poke your head out of the car you can see quite a large crowd of people, mostly civilians but you can see members of the military as well. Everyone seems to be quite tense, the civilians and the soldiers as well.

They appear to be moving the civilians on the trains, but to your eyes it seems like there are way too many people to fit onto the one train that is ready to depart. You seem to recall certain memories from when you were still alive, the images wildly flash around your mind too hard to make out, it's honestly almost painful.

As your headache starts to overwhelm you a sudden noise snaped you out of your vivid mindrush. Someone fired a gun.

You can see the masses terrified as one of their own lies on the tracks with a bulletwound on his forehead. Unfortunately there is no soul for some reason, you guess not all souls stick around here, but this seems to be a good opportunity.

You decided to lay low and wait for some other people to drop, which was not a probability but a certainty. That last person apparently tried to run away and got shot, which lit the match on this powederkeg. People started screaming, praying and just trying to get the hell out of here.
Which is great because the soldiers started to open fire into the crowd more freely.

Apparently others had the same brilliant idea as you did and now there is a cavalcade of hollows just waiting for the pluses, some strong, some weak, all hungry. The whole thing devolves into a buffet for the hollows who are too distracted with the prospect of a free meal to kill each other as there is plenty for everyone.

You manage to snatch a couple for yourself and quickly start satisfying yourself. As you do however the remembrance begins again, this time stronger than before. You can make out the yellow star that these people are wearing, jews. They are lying infront of you lined up in order from smallest to tallest, men, women, children and the elderly. They have been shaved and their hair and belongings have been sent to processing, their corpses are to be disposed of.
A man is running to you obviously excited, he gives a salute and begins to report:

"Hauptscharführer, the orders are in! We are to proceed with the disposing of the corpses, sir!"

"Excellent! Proceed." With a smile you give the orders, you are happy to get rid of the trash.
You keep watching as the soldiers pile the corpses and light them on fire, you don't give them orders you yourself wouldn't do after all.

With that you finally snap out of it. Your arms are shaking and your stomach full on pluses, you finally remembered your past.

You can't quite decide if you feel disgusted or proud, or a mixture of both. In any case, this train leads to a land of prosperity, a deathcamp full of souls for you to take. The journey would be long, but no doubt you'd have food for it.

Do you...

Quincies generally keep to themselves, the only quincy we've seen in the entirety of bleach that does not start off as a asshole is Ichigos mother, and Ishida eventually becomes more tolerable, but his father and the Sternritter are pretty fucking shitty people overall.
>>
>>46011537
>>46011559
You guys realize that the quincies were the ubermensch type, right?

I could 100% see most of the quincy of that era being hardcore nazi types. Especially since you see so few later on, Shinigami x Quincy war, or they lost WW2? I think a combination of both.

You can't let such an opportunity slip by!
Out there you'll surely have food in abundance, also triggering more flashbacks might reveal more about your past, how you died perhaps.
You snag yourself two pluses for the road ahead, people will probably die on the train but you don't want to leave it up to chance. You quickly kill them and conserve them in your mucus, it seems to be quite a versatile substance the pluses don't disintegrate thanks to it.

But as you make yourself for the train a quite large hollow with hooved legs and a horse mask steps in front of you as you scuttle on all four.

"Oy, small fry! Give me those, ye'r so pathetic you probably only eat once a week anyway. NOW GIVE!"

Normally you'd ignore pointless conflict, but something tells you this brute won't stand down on his own, so you have make him. You put your catch on the ground and stand on your hind legs and look the equine in the eye now that you are on the same level.

"Don't tell me ye'r..."

And just like that you headbut him mid-sentence, his mask shatters completely, revealing a human face underneath. Some of the fragments dug deep into his face. Meanwhile your mask is barely cracked and then it heals just like that.

You walk by your opponent who is now profusely cursing you while he is rolling on the ground. You don't want to miss your train, which is about to depart.

You jump onto the last car and watch the hollows, most of whom are still busy eating.
Some others have already boarded and have seen your violent display, it seemed to be effective.

As the train leaves all the hollows seem to scatter, some shouting Quincy as they run.
And sure enough blue bolts start to thin the number of hollows. You decide not to give them a chance to fire at you and start making your way forward.
>>
>>46011997
Why do Soul Society not go out and kill a bunch of people? The population is growing all over the world, and SS is fucking OLD. Are more souls created over time, or are SS just unbalancing the world by stopping Hollows who are the great equalizers?

Imagine if the amount of souls are constant and SS has been slowly dwindling all along, but the stuck-up captains in the main city are totally ignoring the outer districts and only focus on their "HONORABRU DUTY".

Puts a darker spin on the entire thing.
>>
>>46012043
Hollows just turn souls into more hollow. Too much hollow and the world collapses.

I mean, a gillian is like, what, hundreds of souls all bound in a single giant thing? An adjuchas is dozens of those, and a vasto lorde is dozens of those.

How many souls do you think make up a vasto? 100,000? More? It's a lot of souls. If the hollows were left as they are, everything would eventually just be hollows because no souls actually leave that ecosystem without outside influence, they just get absorbed and conglomerated into bigger and badder hollows.
>>
>>46012158
Yeah, but humanity was hella smaller, maybe SS killing off all the hollows fucks the eco-system up. They're a natural part of the system no?
>>
>>46012158
And the quincy legit destroy souls wholesale with their abilities.

The shinigami actually force reincarnate them.
>>
>>46012203
The shinigami killing a hollow brings them to Soul Society right?
>>
>>46012158
Hollows are a problem that solves itself. If they eat too many humans, they begin to starve. If they begin to cannibalize to stave off the hunger, it only increases the speed at which a local concentration of hollows die.

As for the human population, there are seven billion worldwide, and many isolated settlements far from traditional civilization, so humans going extinct is unlikely.

In addition, humans began to evolve to deal with their hollow predators, in the form of quincies.

The soul society is simply interfering in an entirely natural process that, presumably, humans have been enduring since they EXISTED, which I believe is ~100k years.
>>
Eryka and Alfons appear at the trainstation. Both wearing all white clothing reinforced with quincy materials, at least some levels of conspicuousness has to be maintained after all.
Eryka quickly informs her husband:
"It's inside, I can feel it!"

"Are you sure? It could be another hollow with how many there are."

"I am certain, you could feel that power spike and then disappear right?"

"Yes, but it was so quick, I thought I'm just imagining things."

"Let's run, I can't allow this one to slip by again!"

The duo enter and quickly start purging the present hollow one by one. All the while Eryka is scouting for the lizard like hollow, this one has already tarnished her pride once, it won't do so again.

"Look the cursed thing boarded the train!"
She shouts.

Her husband quickly faces the train, right after impaling a flying hollow with his Seele Schneider.
"You can't be serious!"

"It's trying to get away! We can't..."

"We are not in any position to pursue now! There are way too many, bloody SS attracted way too many of them! We must purge this place immediately, we can decide what to AFTER we are safe!"

"Fine!"
She shouts at her husband, sometimes she really hates it when he is right. But that hollows luck won't last forever, after informing the others she will track it down personally.

You can't help but feel sick, riding on top of the train is incredibly uncomfortable and bumpy. You have been shifting to completely motion sick to fine ever since you left Berlin, the rail quality drastically dropped after that.

You felt quite smart about bringing some snack with you, it took the "cargo" to start dying. Luckily there were a few sick amongst them and they served as a food supply for those with less foresight. You still have some morsels left from the last body, but you're sure it won't last, you still haven't passed the border but you are getting there.

The other hollows rarely pay any attention to you, they are clearly troubled by you. And surprisingly enough they haven't torn each other to shreds either because they quickly established a pecking order where the strongest gets the first soul.

As far as you can tell they can be divided into two groups. Hollows who tend to not mingle with the others, but still can be found sometimes talking to one another and a large group of hollows who adapted a sort of pack mentality. The latter found themselves something else to pass the time with, they form fighting rings on top of the middle car where two hollows enter in a ring made of the others and beat each other sensless. It help disolving their pent up agression and reinforces this pack behavior in them, so it's a win win.

However as you gobble up your last bit of rations you finally reach the border between Germany and Poland. The train will probably stay here for a while for refueling and maintenance. Filling up your reserves is obvious, however you should find some other means of passing time as well.

Though I might have missed some character details from last thread.
>>
>>46012241
But that's wrong.

Hollows don't die when eaten by other hollows, it just creates one bigger hollow. If allowed to continue, eventually you would just end up with the vast majority of souls locked up in Hueco Mundo as vastos and adjuchas, purely because those creatures are essentially hundreds and thousands of compressed hollows in one small form.
>>
>>46013233
Yeah, but we don't know where new souls come from. Unless SS used to be FUCKHUEG souls must be created somewhere, so hollows eating souls would mitigate the growth of SS if anything.
>>
>>46013302
I'm almost certain new souls come from people being born in the SS. They'd be completely new.

While the train has stopped and the officers are handling the paperwork you decide to go out and stretch your legs a bit. It’s about damn time this bloody thing has stopped. While wondering around you can feel a plus appearing in the area. This makes the twentieth death on the road and you are only halfway there. You make short work of it, poor soul barely had time to register what happened to her. Nobody seems to mind since you haven't taken any of the pluses up until now but you can feel some of the more aggressive hollows eyeing you, just itching to cause some trouble. Other than that not much happens except you are bored out of your mind and need to pass the time with something.

You try and look up some of the straggler hollows, maybe some are willing to converse. Sure enough you find one that is currently not occupied and seems to be just as bored as you. You approach it in a slow and not the least intimidating manner you basically telegraph your intent to speak to her as you slowly walk up to it.

On closer examination this hollow seems a little odd, most hollow you have seen have a quite muscular build but this one seems to be a lot more slender, obviously not built for close quarters combat. And it doesn't seem to resemble any animal while such motifs are quite frequent as far as you know. This one strangely enough looks like a plant with its arms and legs being quite reminiscent of tendrils and leaves dotting its neck while the mask looks a lot like a bees head.

You extend one arm hoping for a handshake and greet the walking shrubbery.

"Hey there. You seem as lost as I am, how about we make this trip a little less uneventful?"
You are not quite sure what kind of a reaction you got, it's hard to make out with these bloody masks.

It extends one of its stem like appendages and coils it around your hand then after a brief shake it retracts them.

"Hello to you too! I'm Cerezo Silvestre nice to meet you!"
>>
Well this is awkward , not only did this hollow turned out to be female but you also forgot that you don't have a name!

"Name's Kaizar Soize, a pleasure!" *Nice save!* "So do you mind if I ask you a few questions? I'm afraid I haven't talked too much with other hollows before this so I'm kind of confused about a lot of things and I hoped you'd help me clear things up."

"Sure I don't mind, the others don't like talking to me for some reason, even though I soo enjoy a nice chat."

"That's a relief. Now would you mind telling me why did you decide to embark on this journey? I know my own reasons but nobody elses."

"What do you mean, aren't you here to get to the Promised Land?!"

"I'm sorry, what?"

"You actually don't know! This is so exciting, I get to explain it to someone!"
Your partner shifts around into a more comfortable position, clearly this might take a while, or she simply enjoys telling tales.
"So, rumor has it that there is a place at the end of this railway that leads to a paradise for hollows. Where there is food in abundance and no pesky little quincies to stop you either! They have snipped my beautiful leaves way too many times to count. Those bastards were just EVERYWHERE! I mean they were at the cemetaries, the hospitals, the morgues and you just couldn't find a quick meal anywhere!"

Those all sound incredibly obvious places for set-ups...

"So I decided to leave that boring old city alone and reach this wonderful little haven to eat as much as I can! And I'm sure all those tales of "Reapers" is just a myth to keep us away from the Promised Land, so a few little hollows can keep it for themselves!"

"Reapers? What are those?"

"You don't know even that? It's an urban legend among us, of black fiends stalking hollows in the darkness of the night, ready to cut us to pieces like animals without any reason. But as I said it's just a myth, after all there were none to be found in Berlin and that place was crawling with hollows sometimes."
>>
>>46014341
For someone who does not know anything about Bleach apart from hearing about the last Bleach quest, what is a reaper?
>>
>>46014439
Shinigami, literally means death god. In the west they would be known as grim reapers.
>>
>>46014341
>From Quincies to Soul Reapers
Fuck, we had better get good at cloaking. REALLY good.

>>46014439
Soul Reapers, Shinigami, death gods, aka the guys who hunt and kill hollows to forcibly reincarnate them. The rank and file are moderate threats to us at this level. a Seated officers would stomp us to hell and back. Given we were an SS Officer that is exactly where we'd head too.
>>
>>46014476
>>46014464
So worse than Quinces. Got it.
>>
So the camps are a haven for hollows, huh? And that talk about "Reapers", you don't know how credible she is but you don't feel like talking to her anymore as you figured out why the others don't talk to her much. First, her voice is like two nails inserted into both of your ears and meeting in the middle. Second, her constant shifting and swaying around is nauseating. And lastly she is emitting a constant pungent smell that can't be felt from farther away, but standing in front of her is enough to make you want to vomit. You should wrap this up sooner rather than later.

"So what's your deal? If you aren't heading to the Promised Land then why are you here?"

"It has to do with when I was still alive, I'd love to tell more but I can hardly remember anything."
You engage in some pointless chit-chat for a while in exchange for the information she gave you. Afterwards you wave her a goodbye and go as far away from her as you can and start gagging.

Now that you got a little information and finally your stomach stopped trying to leave your body there is still some time left until the train starts, but not much.
Do you...

Meanwhile in Berlin:

"Those old sacks of shit!"

Eryka explodes as she leaves the small pub which was used as the gathering hall for the Sternritter and the Quincy elders. She gave her report to them about the strange hollow which she encountered and asked their permission to leave the capital in pursuit of it. Naturally they denied her request their reason being that a single hollow, no matter how strange, is not something for a Sternritter to be chasing around.
Her husband is trying to calm her down without much success.

"Dear, I know you are frustrated but you must understand, we can't leave our post now. It would be too dangerous."

"Would you allow for something that tarnished your quincy honore to live for as long as that vermin?"

"Obviously not!"

"Then it's settled."

True, but she could easily kill the entire detachment of Soul reapers herself if she though they insulted her or got in her way. A captain makes up like 65%+ of any division's fighting strength, and she's on the same level.

I wounder what would've happened if we managed to kill her by getting three tens.

It's because of how few people manage to attain that level of power.

There are very few souls that can sense/see ghosts and spiritual energy. There are even fewer humans. Out of the very few Shinigami that there are, few ever attain their true potential.
>>
>>46015071
Captains actually doing anything basically never happens. They'd probably send a 5th seat at best, and once they got fucked up maybe a 3rd seat. Then is that fucks up they'd send either a lieutenant or the captain would finally decide he wants to check it out.

Basically, the captains almost never do anything unless everything is fucked and they wasted a fuckton of resources, or they are already there for another reason.

And yes, every step up in rank/power level basically turns you invulnerable to anything weaker than you.

We should just focus on leveling up our stealth and mucus since everything in bleach is decided by hax and "no i was behind U!!!".

Getting legit strong in bleach is worthless except for like one character, and his hax is being strong.

>>46015071
There is an absolute boatlod of bureaucracy to go through before captains will actually be deployed to the field. And the majority of them won't go out on their own without orders.

Also lieutenants and captains have some weird limiter thing put on their powers when they go to the world of the living so they don't cause tons of collateral damage when they fight.
>>
>>46015136
It's due to the nature of Reiatsu.
If something were to be capable of 'piercing' something else's reiatsu, that creature would be able to take out creatures of considerably higher class than itself.
I don't really know the source materials that well though, so I don't know if anything/anyone has developed techniques for hitting above your weight class like that.

Only reason i'm scared of the 11th division is that Kenpachi is just as likely to come and kill us himself if we kill some of his men as he would be to not give a fuck. The other captains are more restrained.

Ideal would be 6th division since Byakuya would not move an inch without exact orders.

You decide to spend your precious remaining time working more on your mucus, it seems to be very handy and it is capable of surprising you every time you use it.

You withdraw from the scene where the hollows don't really venture but still in viewing distance of the train, in case it departs.
Practice is useful even though you can use your hiding technique pretty well now, it barely takes any effort to suppress a good chunk of your full power.
However while messing around with it changing its properties, making it thicker or more free flowing, you unintentionally created a new technique which will no doubt be very useful.
You are capable of producing some excess mucus in your hand and form it into a droplet using the webbing between your fingers.
This orb sticks to your palm until you swing it just the right way and fire it off as a projectile.

While messing around with it you accidentally made too much of the compound and started swatting your arm to get it off, the resulting shot managed to crack a nearby concrete wall.

It seems the liquid behaves much more like solid matter, when exposed to too much kinetic energy. As the droplet travels its shape takes the form of a tear and after crashing in like a small cannonball the liquid sticks to the surface of what it hit afterwards.

You tried giving this attack a name, but anything not in Spanish just didn't feel right. So you dubbed it Lágrima de Mercurio.

You didn't have too much time for practice however as the train was about to depart, so your aim is still leaves a bit to be desired but hey, progress.

You continue your journey towards the "Promised Land" now feeling a little better about yourself.

so what kind of hollow was noface?

During the second half of the ride you decided to eavesdrop on the train conductors and learned that you'll reach Auschwitz-Birkenau in roughly a day. Good, this confirmed that you are on indeed the right track and you'll soon be there.

Unfortunately you won't make it there without any problems as the leader of the rag-tag group of hollows has finally managed to build up the courge to openly challange you (probably because of peer pressure).

You realise that he won't accept no for an answer. No, he has to prove his "alpha" status to his underlings. So you begrudgingly accept his challange and make your way to the mosh pit of lesser hollows. All of them keep jeering you and shout encouragement to their leader.
Who honestly doesn't look all that impressive, you bet he isn't even as strong as Gramps was.

As for his appearance, he doesn't resemble any animal you know, kind of generic. It has a large humanoid form with brown skin and its mask is crooked and looks like a medieval doctors mask.

Regardless both of you assume fighting position, he raises his fist like a boxer while you use a more open stance, preparing to grab his limbs should he attack, which he does.
After his unimpressive straight jab completely misses you grab his arm in a hold and throw him over your shoulders after your tail knocked out his legs as you turned around.

He can take a beating you'll give him that. If you want to put this clown down you'll have to use something special.

I say we beat him down. His technique doesn't seem to be great, and if we have free rein to smack him around, make a real show of it, that's probably the most efficient way to go about this. Besides, nothing says "boss around here" better than chokeslamming a guy into a wall.

You can see they aren't part of his mask if you were to look, the black outline of his mask superimposed in front of the antlers mean the antlers go -behind- his mask and onto his skull.

And antlers are directly attached to the skull, itself an "endoskeletal" bone.

Antlers don't just float on the skin. And the presence of one requires another.

You don't feel like prolonging this any longer than needed. You'll make a quick but strong impression.
As your opponent begins to charge you, you already prepared your attack.

You pull your arm back and your eyes flash with murderous intent as your hollow voice reverbrates and you say the words.

"Lágrima de Mercurio"

You arc your stretched arm forward and at the peek of its power the small droplet of mucus shoots out. Your opponent barely has time to react let alone dodge. The small tear shaped shot hits him directly in the stomach, just under his hole. He loses his balance and falls on his back due to the power of the shot.
Currently he is at your mercy and he knows it, he is holding his stomach not only because it hurts but because the mucus doesn't let him remove it.

The others have all left their masks open from the surprise, their leader just got knocked on his ass from one shot. Though the fight technically is still going as he will soon free his arms and start attacking you once more, you won't let him.

You step over him with the same glow in your eyes that you had when you fired your shot.
The following scene is so gruesome the other hollows seem genuinely terrified and disguested at the gruesome spectacle that you create.

You devour the poor guys limbs one by one, each on regrows as you are about to finish the last, so you can keep going indefinately. The alpha keeps screaming and pleading for you to stop, but you just won't. Knowing that the others could stop you if they all tried but don't makes this a lot better for you. The only time you stop is when you realise the limbs are growing back much slower than before. You finish devouring the guy and go back to the first car.

For the rest of the trip noone even tried approaching you. And on the horizon you can already see the smokestacks flying up into the sky.

You have arrived

I never understood this autistic thing. He'd be correct if it wasn't for implied evidence contrary to what he is saying. You can clearly see there aren't any bones, yet despite this many time you can see the bodies of hollows behaving as if they do. Contrarily you can see that many hollows also behave as if they don't (by extending or bending their limbs/bodies in odd ways, most typically.). He's not showing any signs of autism, he's defending his point adamantly just as anyone else would do for theirs, even if incorrect.

Do I just not understand what autism is, or is this just a meme?

Making the evolution less linear, not relying on aizen will need a bit of a work around too. Maybe a "purer" route, or eating shinigami in bulk gives the effects of becoming an arrancar, in which case i'd give a quincy route too

Or we can simply crack our masks without plot rock help, like most natural arrancar did. Starkk and Ulqiorra were both made without it after all.

Well, to do it *properly*. Unless you're Starrk or Ulquiorra doing it yourself seems to lead to pseudo-arrancar. Hell, canon Aizen had a bunch of experiments that barely counted as arrancar, like hammerhead.

Keep the mask, and don't stop growing in power.

The idea is that rather than removing our masks/gaining shinigami powers we keep some pride in our race and keep on eating with our mask on

>>46018482
Eh, the arrancar are more interesting.
>>
>>46018533
Let's agree to disagree.
>>
>>46018412
Then you stay a vasto and get stronger.

Until Kubo decides otherwise, Vasto is the end of the masked evolution of hollows. And they are incredibly rare.

Most of the arrancar in canon were adjuchas when they got plotted by Aizen. Ulquiorra and Starrk were the self-made arrancar and they were vasto before that. Keep in mind, Starrk could have killed Shunsui in all likelihood if he wanted to, he just didn't want to. And Ulquiorra could have killed any of the captains on his own save for the older and more powerful ones.

A vasto is roughly captain class for modern times, in the "historical" average they were probably vastly more powerful than the "average" captain, the current captains however are way stronger than the ones before them save a few.

If you want to not become an arrancar and get a bunch of awesome fucking goodies that's fine, but there are stages of evolution that arrancar get as well, and insofar as I am aware Ulquiorra got the furthest.

It doesn't matter, though, yanderritter is coming to murder us to death.
>>
>>46018412
>>46018482
The problem is that even if eating more hollows continues to give a vasto lorde more power, which has never been shown to be the case, the returns would be massively diminished. Even if you get 100% of the energy every time you ate another hollow eating an adjuchas would barely be worth the time it took.

As for eating one of the other MAYBE ten vasto lordes in the entire world? Not even THEY know how many of them there are. You could go decades before even meeting one, and there's still a very real chance it'd be stronger than you.

It's just not practical. Vasto lorde is essentially a plateau, and one that even adjuchas-level arrancar have been shown to surpass.
>>
>>46018605
There is nothing to suggest that Vasto is the end of pure-hollow evolution. Just because it's the farthest anything's gotten (that we know of) so far doesn't mean jack shit. For all we know, there might not BE an end to the hollow evolutions - they might just change into different or more convenient forms each time they get exponentially more powerful, and it's just immensely hard for a hollow to breach the vasto evolution because of diminishing returns and being targets for elimination.

I see!
So what you're saying...
Is that we should eat some arrancar once we hit Vasto.
>>
>>46018731
>diminishing returns
More a case of this. The only vasto lorde we actually know of was Harribel, and she stopped eating well before we even saw her for the first time. Partly this was due to the fact that she was philosophically opposed to the idea, but part of it had to be that it just wasn't worth the effort anymore. King Spooky had his minions as well and never seemed to bother trying to get stronger, and he and Harribel seemed to mostly avoid each other rather than throw down. Even Grimmjow's group of losers admitted that they simply stopped growing stronger at a certain point: they kept eating, but it accomplished nothing.

All evidence suggests that beyond a certain point nomming other hollows is either a waste of time or literally stops making you stronger. Like it or not that means vasto lorde is either the absolute end point of hollow development, or it's the effective end because the means to evolve beyond it simply don't exist.
>>
>>46018731
The hunger ends at a vasto, hollows grow more powerful by consuming others, thus it is a reasonable assumption that hollows will not naturally grow more powerful once they hit vasto.

Just because there is nothing saying they -can't- don't mean they can (No one said I couldn't run fifty miles in a day, doesn't mean I can, for example). Just because there is no evidence to say it is impossible doesn't mean it's possible. It's up to QM though.

And the evolutions are pretty obvious by Kubo, menos get smaller and more powerful each time, until they are roughly the size of a human being, but they can only get so powerful, thus by removing their masks and getting even more powerful they can pose a real threat to the power that captains - and more specifically - ichigo has.

Arrancar can also continue to get more powerful whereas vasto seem to just kind of be there as strong as they are.

It seems more likely that an arrancar can evolve to the point of going back towards a hollow, instead of using their resureccion to take on their hollow-like abilities, they may be able to enter some sort of zen-union state between their shinigami and hollow abilities where both are active all the time.

But that's just speculation.
>>
>>46018785
Scrub adjuchas make an arrancar that can challenge a vasto lorde, while natural pseudo-arrancar are both rare and incredibly pathetic.

You're back to talking about the same considerations regarding rarity and power as either eating another vasto lorde or something that's barely worth the effort.
>>
>>46018973
It's pretty obvious we need "heart".

Kubo won't stop bashing his dick against it, so it must be important.

So fuck being an arrancar, or a vasto, we need to get our fucking heart back. Stop wearing weird emotionmask things and just become whole again.
>>
>>46018973
>A reasonable assumption
No, not really.
Did you know that, if you work out regularly, you will no longer get sore muscles, but continuing to work out after that will still in fact show progress? It's entirely possible, and probable, that the vasto lordes we see simply took the chance to enjoy not having to eat a fuckton of people/hollows anymore, instead of pursuing greater avenues of growth and power. Simply because the IMMENSELY RARE individuals we see don't do it anymore doesn't in any way suggest that it would do nothing for them.

When a soul is devoured, the energy doesn't just disappear. The power of that soul is added to the hollow, even if it might be miniscule compared to its own.

>natural pseudo-arrancar are both rare and incredibly pathetic.

You know Starrk wasn't altered by Aizen, right? And he was officially the "strongest" arrancar.

Ulquiorra was just a vasto before he got Aizen'd. But Starrk was a legit self-made arrancar, the only other one was (videogame canon) Arturo, who could have destroyed the soul society by himself, apparently.

The two examples of self-made arrancar are ludicrously powerful, and they weren't "psuedo arrancar", they had the same traits and abilities as the "real" arrancar made by Aizen.

Starrk actually wanted to make himself weaker when he become an arrancar. So if he succeeded in doing so he was still hilariously powerful considering the fact.

It's literally taking your evolution into your own hands, like smacking Mother Nature in the face and telling her to fuck off, you've got shit to do. Then you rip your own fucking face off, because you've got more hollow-type shit you need to do.

>>46019140
>Did you know that, if you work out regularly, you will no longer get sore muscles, but continuing to work out after that will still in fact show progress?

There actually is only so big you can get. You understand this, right? I'm not saying it's a bad example, but it is a fallacious one, you -can- get stronger, but even then there is only so much stronger you can possibly get.

It -is- a reasonable assumption, as there is no evidence to the contrary, not even implied evidence. Not even hearsay or rumors in any form about it. There is absolutely nothing hinting in any way that there is a more powerful form than a vasto that you can achieve. So if I want to say "Yeah, I don't think there is" then it is not like I'm just being an asshole who naysays. If there was literally anything suggesting there was another form then I would agree with you, however there isn't insofar as I have seen.

You're right and I am right, because neither Kubo has confirmed or denied, and the QM hasn't stated his intentions on the matter. So this is entirely hypothetical and speculative. So yeah, you're right, but I am too.

The only possible way to cut the chains of hell is to get the guardians of hell to pool their energy into you, which in itself triggers a transformation.

I doubt they would ever trust a sinner enough to pool their energy into one, so...the only options left are to either sneak out with a mask, or to try to devise a way to steal that energy from them.

Or convince a visiting shinigami to get their trust and to cut your chains for you.

Ichigo was doing it before those guardian dudes put their spirit goop into him.

I think if you aren't a denizen of Hell it becomes far easier to break the chains.

But being a trickster and convincing someone to release us sounds pretty dope.

No, he wasn't.
It's impossible to cut the chains without their help.

>Kokutō ecstatic over Ichigo's transformation into his Hollow form.

>He fires off several Cero blasts at Kokutō, shattering the majority of his chains

He eventually succumbs to his inner Hollow, but regains control moments later, with fragments of his Hollow form lingering on his body. The Kushanada begin to accumulate around the area, drawn by Ichigo’s unusual Reiatsu. Kokutō laughs mockingly, proclaiming that the Kushanāda will kill him if he doesn't transform into his Hollow form. As soon as he breaks free from his Hollow’s control, the fist of a Kushanada crushes him. A yellow glow emanates from the contact, as Ichigo is enveloped in the same light. Kokutō believes that he is turning into a Hollow once more, but expresses his surprise when he realizes this is not the case.[1]
Kokuto dragged back down into Hell

Kokutō is dragged down to the depths of Hell once more.

>Kokutō is shocked at Ichigo's new form, as Ichigo reveals that Kokutō’s sister never longed for revenge. Kokutō is aghast that Hell would actually lend its powers to a mere human, charging at Ichigo. As Kokutō charges at Ichigo, he proclaims that the two of them are the same. Ichigo agrees, launching a golden Getsuga Tenshō at him, proceeding to shatter the last of his chains and destroying his sword. As Kokuto emerges from the blast crater, he proclaims his freedom, just as numerous lengths of chains emerge from the crater made by the attack, proceeding to envelop him and drag him down even further into the bowels of Hell.

No? Unless I'm missing something. I can't remember from when I saw it so I'm trusting a shitty wiki on this. But it doesn't seem like he was hopped up on hell juice before this moment.

Okay apparently my computer is having a giggle, because I did not butcher copypaste like that.

Hollow born from what was both a bount and a quincy, which proceeded to the vasto lorde level, turned into an arrancar, achieved the second form, and was eventually defeated to get dragged to hell where it transformed into an even more powerful togabito when?

also it ate a hell guardian's power or something

>go to read up on the chains

>says they are indestructible

>a paragraph or two down it says "and are nearly impossible to destroy."

>nearly

I don't know if this wiki is shit or if this is just standard kubo.

Bruh, no he didn't.

But Nel was pretty fucking weird with her shit, but then again, she was a total basket case. Still didn't husbando Ichigo, though. Technically.

I'm perfectly fine with waifuing, after we make Arrancar in 50-100 threads, and she's an arrancar too. Then have eugenics arrancar babies.
