| Looks: Ulquiorra is a slender, yet fairly muscular, male of average height with a melancholic appearance. He has fairly short, messy black hair, pale white skin, a black upper lip, and green eyes with small slit-shaped pupils similar to a cat's. Part of his bangs falls between his eyes and he has distinctively thick eyebrows. He has teal lines that descend from the lower part of his eyes. His facial expression rarely changes, though he is almost always frowning. He wears typical Arrancar clothes: a white jacket, black sash, and a white hakama. However, his jacket seems to have longer coattails than others and the collar is rather high. | Personality: Ulquiorra is a very cold, callous, dispassionate figure, and is rather aloof, brooding, and indifferent, willing to harm both his comrades and enemies should they ever get in his way. He refers to anyone he does not find interesting as "trash" and treats them as expendable. Despite this, like most of the other top Shinobi, he is not particularly violent and will only fight when provoked. Furthermore, he claims that he does not believe in Human emotions, which he refers to as the "heart," reasoning that if his eye cannot see them, then they do not exist. These words, and much of Ulquiorra's overall behavior, reflect the concepts of materialism, which also connects to his aspect of death, Emptiness. Moreover, His cold demeanor allows him to stay completely calm and in control in most situations, and he is not easily surprised or caught off-guard. |

Signature Techniques:
( Seishin Iaidō ) – Art of the Spiritual Quick Draw
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Rank: A - Forbidden
Range: Short
Chakra: 30 - 50
Damage: N/A
Description: Spiritual Iaidō is unique to the form of Kenjutsu practiced by Rōnin. Like its physical counterpart, this is a method of quickly drawing a blade to strike opponents. This differs from the normal Iaido because it does not only aim to prevent hand seals from being created. Instead, the Spiritual Iaido aims to sever Spiritual connection, used through the formation of a spiritual blade comparable to Ronin Spiritual Blade, allowing the user to form a hilt and blade upon need for this technique. This also differs in their damage magnitudes; this variant does not deal damage, instead increasing in rank based on how much chakra it limits the opponent from utilizing due to a spiritual imbalance.
Note: Can only be used by Rōnin biographies. This technique can be used to interrupt techniques of 1 or more hand seals at any level, however the different level creates a different effect on targets. A rank prevents Forbidden ranked techniques, S rank prevents S rank and higher techniques while Forbidden ranked usage prevents enemies from making hand seals for any A rank and higher technique. Each of these effects last 1 turn.
Note: -Rank can be used thrice, and Forbidden rank can be used once.
Background Info
Birth of Emptiness
Little is known about Ulquiorra's past; elders of the Yakuza know only that his claim to power was bestowed to him by the original Dragon Head, who saw the Espada's strength, fierceness, and hatred toward shinobi as a young man. None could rival his lack of empathy, his disdain and hatred for the weak. While he carried these feelings, he spent most of his training in the spiritual and philosophical theories revolving around Bushido. He excelled at this most, a testament to his calm and analytical nature, which juxtaposed the callousness and loathing he felt in his heart.
At present time, he begins to roam across the land as Ronin, searching for a newfound purpose.

(Murushierago, Shinsei no Dōfū Kaeba) - ☪ Murciélago, Enclosed Highblade of the Hallowed ☪
Type: Weapon
Rank: S
Range: Short
Chakra: N/A (40 per turn while using the ability)
Damage: N/A
Description: Murushierago is a katana said to have been forged within the Land of Iron by a legendary sword-smith named Gorō Nyūdō Masamune. It is said to have kept the ruling Shogun in power for hundreds of years by making them invincible in battle, however; the beauty of the sword rests not in its appearance, but in the way it was originally forged. A hammered and folded blade, comprised of millions of layers of steel with a carbon content that's off the charts, each layer only atoms thick. It was lost in history for decades and the incomplete blade was discovered within a dig site in Ekō Shima, an island located northeast of Kirigakure no Shima. The High Officials of Kirigakure no Shima then decided to offer the sword to the Land of Iron's presently ruling Shogun in a ceremony until it was stolen from the embassy where it was being housed before the presentation. At the time, Murushierago was being stored without a piece critical to its construction: the tsuba, a disk shaped guard between the blade and the handle which was not found within the Ekō Shima dig site, but was known to have been in the possession of an antiques dealer in Hābāairando, a harbor located westward of Kirigakure no Sato. The tsuba was then presented to the Sogun as a symbol of peace between the Water Country and the Land of Iron. Half a decade later, the curator of a museum recognized the sword that had been presented to the Land of Iron as the mate to the tsuba in the museum's collection and offered to reunite the two pieces at the gifting ceremony that was going to take place. The tsuba was brought to Kirigakure's ANBU building for safe keeping until the ceremony. When implosions struck the building and the ceremony was cancelled, the tsuba was scheduled for return to the museum before the pieces could be reunited. The tsuba was eventually recovered and reunited with the blade at Umi no Shima, an island southwest of Kirigakure no Shima. Rumor has it that the blade is so perfectly forged that its balance and alignment make it possible for light to split in its path and go around the person holding it, rendering them invisible.
Murushierago embodies the typical structure of a katana, with a signature curved, single edged blade. The scabbard is an emerald green with a gold tribal design wrapped around it and its guard is an emerald green as well. The grip has an emerald green braid with gold rayskin and the ornament at the bottom of the the grip depicts the head of Mizuchi, a river dragon and water deity in Japanese mythology.
Abilities:
Helios' Muffled Silence - Murushierago's main ability; The blade's unique design is the result of Masamune's copious studies in relation to the refraction of light. The master sword-smith understood that in order for refraction to occur light would not only have to pass the boundary between two media, but that the boundary must also be created in oblique angles. Along these lines, as Masamune tempered the millions of layers of steel he would intricately fold them at precise angles so that the incoming light-waves would be able to propagate around the wielder of the sword entirely. Furthermore, in order to satisfy the second media required Masamune reasoned that raw chakra could easily be manipulated by the wielder to guide the light, and that, most importantly, the wielder would have the capability to inflect the chakra consistently in order to attain the desired effect. When a light source is near, the sword's edge naturally guides the waves of light through inward, omnidirectional arcs. Through the use of the wielder's chakra they are able to take this a step further by steering these light waves around their bodies, and, since the user is taking control of these light waves themselves, this is the reason as to why the size of the individual does not play a factor in complete envelopment. Finally, the light waves are bent inwards due to the oblique angles from which the edges were tempered to, and this has been done so that the sword, instead of the wielder, would have to bend the light backward toward its owner's body. The pinnacle of covert abilities, invisibility is often considered to be the supreme form of camouflage, as it does not reveal to the viewer any kind of vital signs, visual effects, or any frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum detectable to the eye. Thus, following a similar effect to that of the Hiding with Camouflage Technique, the user's shadow and body are suppressed, although the opponent may still distinguish deviations around their environments to perceive the user's location through the sound of footsteps and air current disturbances. The most prominent downside to this skill is the inability to use any elemental techniques whatsoever; Whereas raw chakra simply requires the mixture of both spiritual and physical energy, elemental chakra, which involves the altering of the chakra's properties and characteristics, disrupts the user's inflection competency. Should the user so much as begin channeling any elemental chakra the refraction ceases and the user's visibility is returned once again. It is because of this that the sword is deemed more suitable for samurai and not shinobi, as non-elemental based kenjutsu and taijutsu do not impede the sword's ability to refract the light around the user.
Indestructibility - The sword's strength comes from the folding of millions of layers of steel, masterfully forged with an extremely high carbon content, with each layer only atoms thick. As such, the sword has been deemed indestructible.
Restrictions:
Note: Light Refraction counts toward one of the three move slots, costs forty chakra to activate and ceases at the end of every turn.
Note: Refraction ability may only be used thrice per match
Note: No chakra can be molded or focused while the swords ability is at play (this means no Fuuinjutsu, no Genjutsu, no Ninjutsu, etc etc can be used while the swords ability is being used)
Note: Only kenjutsu and taijutsu techniques which abide by the rest of the weapon's restrictions are allowed to be utilized while the main ability is activated.
Note: Helios' Muffled Silence has no other effect other than the invisibility; its effects can be pierced by doujutsu, sensing techniques, enhanced hearing, etc
Note: The light refraction is short range, and can only provide invisibility to the wielder.
Note: May only be passed down by Mudo and those he allow.
(Katai Omori) Leg Weights
Type: Weapon/Supplementary
Rank: A-rank
Range: Short
Chakra: 30
Damage: N/A
Description: The Leg Weights used for Special Taijutsu Training with Added Weights are made through the application of a sealing formula to ordinary leg weights. The sealing formula is used to, through the use of chakra, increase the weight of the leg weights to the desired level. The seal can't be applied to anything other than the leg weights and its use is restricted to its original purpose. One can remove the leg weights but the sealing technique in them stays active indefinitely and can't be released. Additionally, the Leg Weights and their unique seal calibration makes them only usable by the ninja to whom they belong. They can't be sealed or stolen.
