Looks Description: Intensity is the word that first comes to mind as one sees Nira. Her black hair, shining like the sun with it's luster and gleam, and red eyes, a hot core to the rest of her. Light skin as if made from the sun's rays, her body exudes the look of ferocity matching her particular attitude. Being somewhat short, she attempts to make up for this by growing her hair out, feeling that it is somehow a sort of compensation for her unusually small stature. Due to her unusual bone structure, specifically a subdural quasiexoskeleton, her body looks more toned than it actually is due to the placement of the plates.
Since the first release of her Mantis Seal, Nira has sprouted a secondary set of arms below her first. These she typically keeps underneath her clothing, folded beneath her bust, hiding them within a loose coat she has come into the habit of wearing. Initially she was ashamed of them, hiding them, but very recently she has taken to embracing the additions, and wearing her tan overcoat open, keeping her normal arms in the sleeves and the extra shrouded within the coat, but often crossed over her chest and easily seen.
Personality Description: Being rather whimsical, Nira tends to slack off often, a large smile always on her face wherever she goes. Additionally, she always wears her hair so that her bangs cover her eyes, making it hard to tell which direction she is looking. One of her greatest weaknesses is her tendency to shirk work to the last minute, something that resulted in her barely passing her exams to become a Genin. Deep down, Nira simply feels a lack of interest in the world around her, believing that nothing has greater purpose, and that the majority of human action on the planet will have any lasting effect on the cosmos.
In addition to her general lack of enthusiasm, she also has an intense fear of failure, the very root of her laziness. If she does not try, she can never fail, a practice that fades only during missions and even then it is done hesitantly. Ever since the death of her former team she has also become rather reclusive, something that synergized quite well with her laid-back personality, though one that also turned that constant smile into something empty and creepy, cracked as if to burst out into tears or insane laughter at any moment.
Likes:
-Music: She finds it relaxing.
-Shade: She often has issues overheating due to her metabolism generating so much heat.
-Female Kages: She has aspired to these great women all her life, if she were the kind of girl who took initiative, it would be to become a kage.
Dislikes:
-Oranges: In her earlier years, the other girls in her class called her orange-head after she attempted to dye her hair a more interesting color, resulting in her distaste for them. However at the age of 15 her hair turned black on it's own, so she's had less trouble recently.
-Cherries: Around puberty, due to her eyes being red, boys used to poke her in them and joke about "popping her eye cherries", eventually resulting in her habit of wearing her bangs over her eyes.
-Testicles: She doesn't trust them

History:
Nira's birth was one that was not expected. Kidai Feng, a hidden sound ninja, never expected to stumble upon the dying ninja Osurai Tashinode. Nursing him back to health from serious wounds, she tried to ascertain his hidden village but to no avail. The two fell in love almost overnight and in nine months Nira was born. Sadly, her father succumbed to his wounds two months prior to her birth, and her mother dying in childbirth. Having no relatives she was adopted into the Feng clan, a small, little-known clan residing in the Village hidden by the Sound. As she was brought up she was taught to use a blade from a very young age, taught that earning one's place in the world was to be one's greatest achievement. At a young age she had a special tattoo on her chest, one that as she grew would stretch and spread across her chest in the shape of a butterfly's wings, signifying her metamorphosis into a Ninja.
In time, she came to resent those words, finding them to be overstrict and stringent. Her teachers always pestered her over her laziness and her parents tried to be understanding, but in time began to regret adopting her. Her only saving grace seemed to be her diversity of skills, but in none of those skills did she show any exemplary promise. Deep down Nira always wondered if she had enough skill and subconsciously she began to hold back, keeping herself from her full potential, afraid that it would be much lower than she could hope it to be.
In the Ninja Academy, she began to cultivate the feeling of alienation. Even as she became a genin she felt herself separate from the others. As the chunin exams came around the first time she almost died, being eliminated in the first round she began to despair, feeling she would never progress past the rank of Genin as her teammates went on to be chunin. Her envy however was short-lived when her teammates were killed during an A-rank mission, leaving her alone as even her Jounin instructor was killed. Being the lone survivor, she succeeded in surviving only because her instructor had taken a massive shuriken to protect her, and with his dying words, told her not to be afraid, that she'd make it if believed in herself. Through some miracle, she defeated the ninja that had killed her comrades, a miracle that continues to haunt her as she wonders what it was that saved her.

RP Sample:
Not half an hour late,r Yuki and the twins all went their separate ways to further explore Las Noches while Lady Sjane rested. Yuki found herself alone soon after and as she walked she noticed the glances from the occasional Arrancar. It had been so fast that her life had changed, her mind rewinding back to earlier that day....
Yuki had always been somewhat weak among the other Adjuchas. She wasn't much of a fighter and often found herself barely escaping with her life. As she trudged those white sands, she could not help but feel alone, a feeling that was far more painful than her hunger. Pausing she sighed as she raised her head up to the sky. It had been two days since her last meal and she could already feel her body weakening. A single tear rolled down her mask, hitting the sand softly as she began to slowly accept the fate of devolution. Just as she lay down, staring up at the moon, waiting to die, she was suddenly jolted to her feet by a sudden massive spiritual pressure. The hit of adrenaline caused her to breathe heavily and gasp as blood hit her in the face and she turned to see a severed arm fly past her. As she turned her head slowly, she noticed a small figure a small ways away, eyes wide in wonder as she saw her. Her first thought was that she was scary. the blood that tarnished her white armor was a large contrast to thedark hair and the small patches of dark skin that could be seen here and there. As she watched, the female turned and aimed at an attacking hollow, her eyes wide as she watched that hollow's head explode and the body was tossed her way, leaping back as it landed before her. blinking she felt her heart race in her chest, lookign down at the meal. However she immediately backed off, knowing better than to steaL such a powerful hollow's meal. And yet, as the fight ended, she watched in astonishment as she simply walked away. As the woman grew more andmore distant, Yuri slowly moved in and sniffed the carcass. With a gulp she slowly lowered her head and dug in. It was probably the best meal she had ever eaten, the hollow had been far strogner than her and she could feel strength seethign back into her body as she chowed down. With a final gulp she looked up, seeing the Vasto Lorde begin to fade into the distance. With a sudden panic she raced after her. She had to follow her, this had to be a sign right? She was saved, she was saved!
Yuri blinked as she opened her eyes, just as the sound of her mask cracking reached her ears. Her heart stopped in her throat and her eyes went wide as suddenly cracks formed over her body. With a sudden realization, she realized she no longer felt hungry, and the hole in her chest was gone, having migrated down to her naval. She felt a sudden rush of energy and shut her eyes tight as she felt the blast of her own reiatsu around her, and was shocked by how strong it was.
When the dust settled, Yuri stared down at her own human hands, blinking as she reached up and felt her face. Her skin was pale and thin red tiger stripes marked up and down her arms. As she looked down she noticed how small she was and the sight of her hollow hole's migration was one of many surprises. Reaching up atop her head she paused for only a moment before runnign her fingers carefully over the remains of her mask, two long sabreteeth and the upper jaw formed a sort of tiara. Lowering her hands she immediately grabbed the closest thing to her and used it to cover hersef as she rushed off. She couldn't help but smile as she put her hand over her chest and that hunger in her core had been replaced with:Gratitude.
Arroj and Tsone moved calmly and silently through Las Noches after beign separated from Yuri and Lady Sjane. For a long while neither of them talked, and the only sounds were the occasional murmurs around them and the sound of their talons clicking along the floor. After a while they found themsleves in some sort of atrium, with many doorways surrounding them. Standing very still, it was arroj who eventually spoke up. "A lot of ways we could go....brother..." With a simple nod Tsone turned to look over his shoulder. "Only one that goes back to Lady Sjane......." he noted. They both nodded and as they stood there, they both though back, sifting through their memories totheir lives as hollows.
As hollows they had been inseparable. They fought together, they ate together, they bled together, and they traveled together. With their teamwork they had found themsleves qutie well fed and quite strong. But one thing they were missing, was the strange feeling that they were trapped. While they staved off devolution, they could feel no progression, they only grew so strong before they felt some invisible screen over them. at one point they had med a very strage hollow that called itself the Doctor. After avoiding it's initial attack, it had grilled them about what exactly they were doing with themselves, askign what their purpose was, why they were going on with their lives. It was this that haunted the brothers. When that immense spiritual pressure had been felt at first, they had stayed away, takign tot he skies to observe from afar. The lone female was surrounded, by adjuchas and lowly hollows alike. She was a goner, and they knew the familiar symptoms of a gang-up. She smelled rather apatising, but something about her let them know they were better off just watching.Their gut saved them as they watched the Vasto lorde make quick work of the adjuchas, adjuchas that even on their own would have been impossible for the twins to best. When it was all over, both Arroj and Tsone felt something strange as they watched the menos simply walk away. Not ones to pass up a meal, they soon descended upon one of the bodies. It wasn't long before they found themselves following the vasto lorde. The woman had surpised the twins many times in such a short period. With her restraint in not eating her kills, with her understanding in confronting them when they had followed her, and her strength when she made that final leap and had removed her mask. The doctor's words echoed in their minds and when they had found themselves following her to Las Noches, they began to feel the emptiness withins lowly fill up.
The sound of cracking was in the air as both brothers kept their eyes closed and their heads bowed. When they finally opened their eyes they new immediately what had happened. They both stood at the same height, looking identical save for some key differences. Arroj's mask fragment, a small shard of beak, was on his left cheek, while Tsone's fragment was on the right. Looking to one another, for the first time they saw what they themselves looked like. Their hollow holes had migrated to their throats and their hair was blond. They rummaged around for a bit and eventually found something to cover themselves with. the entire time smiling as the feeling of Purpose filled the void their hunger had left.
Dread hummed softly to herself as she walked through Las Noches, smiling as she walked alongside a small gaggle of other female arrancars, Yuri right nxt to her as she cradled the back of her head in her hands, leaning her head back as they walked while the other arrancar talked.
"So Dread, I hear you arrived here with two other hollows who turned arrancar. They seemed pretty nice, strong too. Think maybe you could put in a good word for me? I've always wanted to spar with twins." one named Lennore asked, inciting a chuckle from Dread as she replied. "I don't see why not, though Yuri here is pretty good as well." she noted with a calm smile, causing the shy Arrancaress to go a slight shade of pink, much to the amusement to the group. Despite this Dread lowered one arm to gently pat the slightly shorter female on the head and lean over, speaking softly. "Relax hun." this caused yuri to smile and nod before turning her attention back to the others as another girl named Tsera piped in.
"On another note, it's nice to see that we're having more people come in, have you considered appealing to an Espada for a spot at a fraccion?" she asked
At that the two simply looked at one another and shrugged, Yuri being the one to speak up this time. "We haven't exactly met any espada, not to mention we're still getting used to this place./" The others nodded at this and simply resumed their discussion about recent developments, fighting styles, and of course boasting about fighting techniques.
Meanwhile in another part of Las Noches.
The Avian twns were INCREDIBLY uncomfortable. Thay sat semi-huddled in a room while male arrancar around them made out. It was very unsettling and it had been going on for a good 45 minutes. They did not remember how in the hell they had gotten here. All they knew was that they not only did not enjoy the atmosphere but they were also extremely worried about the sultry looks the other males shot them. Having been slowly inching towards the door for the past half hour, they finally made a run for it, resulting in quite a few stares.
Panting, Tsone and Arroj panted as they lay sprawled on the ground, exhausted from the mad dash from the place.
"A.....Arroj?"
"Y...yea Tsone?"
"I think we need to stick with....Lady Sjane....from now on."
His twin nodded in agreement and the two slowly got to their feet, making their way slowly towards Dread's spiritual pressure, keeping an eye out for any familiar faces from that strange room.
Apparently there wasn't too much the three had to ask really, maybe they were saving their questions for later. Afterall, one could expect them to be a little bit excited, going to Las Noches for the first time and all that. Though since they hadn't been too far away from it, getting back to Las Noches wasn't much of a problem. Within only a few short minutes the castle was directly infront of them once more. And within a few more minutes they were already entering the white castle and going on their way to get the clothing. They tried out a few styles, but in the end a plain look suited Dread best and that is what she picked out. Atleast now the new Arrancar was dressed like a normal person and not wrapped in some weird make believe clothing. Minako led them around a bit, showed them Las Noches and in the end even got to being able to explain a few things here and there. Mostly about the Espadas, the rank system and all that weird stuff that nobody ever needed, or something like that. Anyway, while Dread stayed a bit closer to Minako, the Hollows went around to explore. Each one of them heading their own ways to look around Las Noches and see what it withheld. Minako didn't mind it too much, hopefully no one would attack them, after all they were hollows in the arrancars home.
While everyone was out exploring, Minako took the time to have a sit down and wait till everyone was done. Even though she normally wasn't one to just sit down and wait, she was getting a little bored of just standing around. Atleast if she sat down she wouldn't get any stupid ideas, well most likely due to being lazy to stand up again. Plus she had no where urgent to go to right now, so sitting down was best for now. She went into one of the rooms which was sort of like a break room and sat down at a table. Twirling an empty cup infront of her on the table and waited for the rest to recover.
After some time, eventually Dread and Yuri ran into the twins again, Sjane smiling and folding her arms as she spoke. "Well well well I see you two had a little fun too, anything interest-" she was immediately cut off by a synchronous NO from both twins, surprising her into silence before simply nodding. After a brief discussion about what to do next the four eventually homed in on Minako's spiritual pressure and proceeded to move to her location. After a good 20 minutes they found the place they found her, filing into the room. IT never occurred to the three newborn Arrancar that the espada would probably not recognize them unless she paid close attention to their reiatsu. As they entered, Sjane nodded towards the espada, taking a seat as the twins and Yuri sat nearby. Clearing her throat, Dread offered a somewhat painful-looking smile. She hadn't smiled in a long time so she was still getting used to using those particular muscles of her face. "Thank you again for allowing us to come here, we really do appreciate your hospitality. However on another note, you've told us alot about this place but you haven't really said much about yourself and I must admit I am rather curious." Yuri nodded in agreement as Sjane finished speaking, the twins simply gave curt nods, their eyes wandering to the side now and then, as if expecting the male arrancar from the room to jump out at them at any moment. it was something that Dread noticed and made a mental note to ask them about later.
