Yeah, all this is my repsonse to the questions provided in the quiz. Yeah so here we go.
Information
Name: Tomoko Hosokawa (lots of o’s)
Age: Old, but I look 16 to 17
Gender: Female
Species: Shinigami
Nicknames: Tomo-chan, To-chan, Mo-chan, Moko-chan, just about anyversion of my name really.
Height: 5’10
Hair style/color/accessories/etc.: Layered, slightly above my breast, with bangs that I’m growing out. It’s blonde and sometimes I put it in a ponytail or braid it, but that’s about it. I don’t do much with my hair.
Eye color: Green, I have blue glasses too. Bad eye site.
Clothing: I just wear a shihakusho, nothing special really. Oh, I do wear fingerless gloves. I just like the way they look.
Picture (if you want):
(Picture has brown eyes, but pretend they’re green!)

Body build: I’m taller than most people would accept a girl to be and I’m fairly stronger. I have good upper body strength and can kick hard. I have athletic legs that make my hips a bit bigger than I would like them, but at least I know that it is muscle. I’ve got average sized breast, I guess. They could be a bit bigger, but I’m happy with my figure nonetheless.
Fighting style: I’m a close-combat type of girl when it comes down to it. I’ll use kido and my own little tweaks, (like my own inventions or body enhancers), I have to whenin battle before having to go close combat, but with my bad eye site, my glasses usually end up broken and I have to get close to the other fighter or I can’t see. I use my Zanpakutou in battle most of the time, but not with its name called, I feel kind of weak if I do.
Other (birth marks, scars, etc.): When I first came to the Soul Society I was in Rukongai District 63 and was killed almost right when I got there. Luckily, I survived and only ended up with a fairly large scar on my left shoulder. The wound did hit some of my nerves and had made it impossible for me to bend my left pinky, it's always numb,but other than that nothing seems wrong.
~If Shinigami:
Are you in the Gotei 13?: Yep, for a while now too!
Division: Third
Rank: 3rd Seat
Zanpaku-to name: Komeibuke (Ko = Great; mei = dark; buke = warrior)
Zanpaku-to gender: Boy, though he prefers it to bereffered as ‘male’.
Command of release for shikai form: Come and speak Komeibuke
Appearance of sword before shikai form: A dinged up Katana, with a black handle.
Shikai appearance: A very large and long blade that hooks onto my arm and I hold a part of it with my hand. It’s a one handed, will one armed blade, that was really heavy at first, but I got use to it. The blade is black. When I’m holding it, it’s kind of like a person who’s jousting, but my hands hold on to the blade in about the middle so it continues on to my elbow. It’s complicated without a picture. Sorry.
Shikai ability: None really, just a much stronger blade. It does increase my speed and makes flash stepping easier once I became accustom to the weight. It also helps my eye site a little strangley enough.
Have you reached bankai?: Yes, but not for very long and not manyknow, I try tokeep this little secret to myself.
Bankai name: Komeibuke—Kishintsuinken (Kishin = Noble; tsuin = twin; ken = blade)
Bankai appearance: Similar to the sword had before; this time there are twoblades on both arms, that are very curved. They are a pristine white color a sparkle in the right light. The swords are about two times longer than the last one, but seem to be lighter. The blade extends further past my elbow and curves outward making it almost hook. I don't have to hold it this time with my hands, the just attach themselves to my arms.
Bankai ability: My speed yet again increases, but now I’m able to know the position of an enemy, even if they’re hiding their spiritual pressures, just by standing on the ground or breathing in the air, my body instantly knows where they are. My hearing and eye sight have increased, so I don’t have to wear glasses while fighting and I can hear a pin drop in a crowded room. The hearing thing takes time to adjust to though. I haven’t been able to make it where if someone is talking then they don’t sound like they’re screaming in my ear, but I’ll get the hang of it eventually.

Opinions on characters
Ichigo: He’s the ryoka boy and he already achieved bankai! He's got some talent.
Rukia: An acquaintance of mine. I don’t know her very well, but when I heard of her execution I knew something bad was going to happen. I knew she didn’t deserve to die and glad that the ryoka saved her and glad that I was able to help them.
Chad: The ryoka boy with the neat arm. Cool power, a bit quiet.
Orihime: She has a very cool ability when it comes to healing, but I don’t know her too well.
Uryuu: The first Quincy I ever met. I think he just hates us all, but I understand why and I would feel the same. Too bad the Shinigami and quincies can’t fix their problems.
Urahara: I’ve heard of him, but I don’t know that much about him.
Yoruichi: I got to meet her briefly after the ryoka broke in the Seireitei and after Aizen, Ichimaru and Tousen (those assholes betrayed the soul society, I never trusted Aizen, and I always had the feeling Gin-taichou was a bit sinistereven though he was my taichoubut this and Tousen, it’s just confusing.), but we didn’t converse that much.
Captains
Yamamoto: He is a very respected man, but I don’t know him that much.
Soifon: She’s a very strong woman, but acts like a stick is up her butt. Don’t tell her I said that though!
Gin: He was my taichou, but now he betrayed us all. I don’t know how to explain my feelings on this. I’m pissed off to no bielf, Izuru-kun is one of my closest friends and he’s just been so hurt along with Momo-chan and the others, but then I myself amsad too. I don’t know, I’m just bleh right now, but it’s not like I’m going to let anyone see that.
Retsu: She is a very talented healer and captain, though I don’t think she realizes how much she can scare people without realizing it.
Aizen: Douche-bag Aizen. When I first met him I noticed how people just swooned over him and it disgusted me. It also made me feel that I couldn’t trust him and so I didn’t, though I acted my best around him and didn’t tell my friends so they won’t worry or tell him. I guess my suspensions were right, unfortunately.
Byakuya: He is a very skilled fighter, but is super stuck up; I guess that happens when you are born into nobility.
Saijin: I was a bit weary of him at first, but then when I saw his true appearance I thought he was the coolestguy ever!
Shunsui: Very... different, but also laidback and I like his attitude towards life. It seems peaceful.
Tousen: I would have never guessed that he would be one to betray us! I really would like to know what Aizen said for him to join his little escapade.
Toushiro: Very serious, but that seems to just be a front about his insecurities about him being the youngest taichou and being well... Short. But I give him props for being as talented as he is and being able to handle Rangiku-chan like he does.
Kenpachi: A bit blood thirsty, but I don’t mind him as long as he doesn’t want to fight me.
Mayuri: An interesting fellow... I’ve always thought that he was cool, but I would never want to run into him in a dark alley or something like that, though he would probably say I’m not interesting and the majority of me is fine with that, but then a small part of me wants to be more. Weird ain’t it.
Joushiro: Very a nice man, too bad he has Tuberculosis. He was the first captain I met. I was still a child and had managed to get myself to a better location than District 63 and he was there doing something or other, an investigation or something, and then he started hacking and coughing up blood and almost pasted out. His lieutenant then was freaking out and everything and I gave them some of the water I had. I was living by myself then, but then they seemed to make excuse to come to my district, meaning they wanted tosee me and got me to a even better district. For a while, I gave him the nickname Mr. TB or Captain TB when I learned he was a captain and then finally started to call him Ukitake-sama or taichou. He’s a very cool guy and nice. I’d probably be dead if it wasn’t for him and I’m grateful.
Lieutenants
Chojiro: I don’t know him that much honestly.
Marechiyo: I think he’s in denial about everything...constantly.
Izuru: He’s one of my best friends and I’m really sad for him right now. I wish there was something I could do better for him, but I really don’t think I can and it’s probably something he has to do on his own.
Isane: She’s talented at what she does. She can perform high leveled Kido that I would have to practice years on.
Momo: Poor little Momo-chan. She’s just... I don’t know what to say really... I just want to give her a hug and then go kick Aizen’s a**!
Renji: A close friend. He’s been moved around the Gotei more than someone should have to. A bit of a hot head if you ask me, but that’s want makes Renji, Renji.
Tetsuzaemon: I don’t know him to well.
Nanao: I don’t know her that well either. We both have glasses and... need them, unlike some betrayer of the soul society.
Shuuhei: He seems to be taking this better than most, but I think he’s just burying his feelings about this away, kind of like I am.
Rangiku: She’s a goodfriend of mine and crazy. I know she’s hurting right now because of what Ichimaru did, but is hiding it from everyone, but I can critize her on that. I do the same thing.
Yachiru: Adorable little pink hair kid, but also very dangerous.
Nemu: I’ve met her maybe once or twice, but that’s about all the contact I’ve ever had with her.
Kaien: Was a really cool guy and I was very sad when I learned of his death. It was kind of hard to take since he became sort of like a brother to me, if Ukitake-taichou was unable to come make sure I was ok, he would come and he had me live in the district near his family, so it kind of felt like they were my family.
Roleplay
Whether you are a human or shinigami or whatnot, you are walking amongst the world of the living when all of a sudden, someone shoves hard into your right shoulder from behind. You quickly regain your composure to see a teenage boy with bright orange hair and a black and white robe uniform running with a large sword running right passed you. What do you say/think/do?
Say: Uh, hey, wait kid! Get back here!
Think: Is he a shinigami? I’ve never seen him before and look how big his sword is geez.
Do: Get up and run after him like an idiot.
Whatever you did, you ended up following the carrot-topped teen off to the park. As you are making your way to the park, you hear a loud, piercing cry in the night sky. Quickening your pace, you finally reach the park to see a large black colored monster with a mask hiding its face. However, the same boy from before is on the ground, bleeding heavily. There is also a girl in a school uniform with short black hair that is kneeling at his side. The monster is preparing to finish both of them off. What do you say/think/do?
Say: Aw sh*t.
Think: I gotta act quickly.
Do: Eat my soul candy and quickly dispose of the hollow.
Fast forward…You are in the Soul Society and you are walking by yourself in the outskirts of inner walls. As you turn a corner, you see Orihime practicing with her Shun Shun Rikka, Uryuu practicing with his bow and arrows, Chad challenging himself with his armored arms, and Ichigo with his Zanpaku-to. Who do you decide to train with or do you train by yourself? Why?
I decided to train by myself and/or mediate. It helps figure things out, but if someone wanted me to help them train I would, but they might want to train by themselves and don’t want to be bothered either.
For reasons unknown, Captain Yamamoto has called you along with many other highly skilled Soul Reapers and fighters to assign a special mission that contains extreme danger and powerful enemies. Captain Yamamoto has chosen you as the leader of the mission and he has given you the option to choose three other people to go with you as your team. Who do you choose and why?
I would choices Izuru, Orihime o/r Isane, and Ichigo o/r Renji. Izuru because I know him well and his Zanpakutou’s ability would come in handy in battle. Orihime because her ability would come in handy if any of us were harmed, but I doubt Ichigo or any of her other friends would let her just come without one of them along with her or at all, so I picked Isane because she can heal and knows great kido that would come in handy. If Orihime got to join the group then I’d want either Ichigo or Renji there. They’re both capable fighters with great abilities and have great endurance. Plus thy both know their bankai which is even more handy.
More time has past and a tournament has come through the Soul Society. You entered and started off well, but in the semi-finals where you fought against your ultimate rival, you lost the battle and were disqualified. Alone and in depression, you ran off to be by yourself when you suddenly hear someone behind you. You turn around to see who it is. Who do you want it to be? What happens?
Uh, I don’t know, I guess I’d want to see someone close to me like Ukitake-taichou or maybe Rangiku or Izuru. I just want them to get me out of my depression rut, though in the scenario I doubt I would be that upset over a competition.
Alright that's it.Yay.
