Essence ofAsauchi

You may remake your body and form, including gaining an odd form similar to any of the Zanpakutō spirits (this can also allow you to gain two forms similar to Hyorinmaru’s Ice Dragon form and Human form).

You are a spiritual entity and weapon becoming a sword spirit. This will grant you a sword form (including scabbard) that you can transform into or summon to your own hand and dismiss as you wish or both (no matter your form you will be effortless to wield for yourself and any you give permission to). As a Zanpakutō you will possess the basic abilities expected of your kind such as; Konsō (the act of sending spirits to their association afterlife by giving them a tap with the pommel of your sword or the palm of your hand), Sublimation (the act of purifying souls that have been corrupted, like hollows, cleansing them of their sins and sending them to their associated afterlife), cut and damage spiritual bodies, limit you power, mastery swordsmanship, and abilities similar to those possessed by Shinigami.

Inner World: Normally stored within the mind of their Shinigami as you may not possess a wielder you now possess a pocket dimension only accessible to you and any you wish to allow within (either physically, mentally, or spiritually). This world bends to your will always appearing as you desire it. Optionally, your scabbard can act as a key/doorway into your inner world, this won’t really change anything just grant you a physical conduit to your inner world.

Asauchi: You possess the greatest ability of the Asauchi, the potential to become anything, given time and focus your powers can grow and change to fit your needs or the needs of your allies (the more stressing the situation the quicker you adapt). This also guarantees that you are never truly powerless or at a disadvantage as you are constantly adapting for the better and can always reclaim what was lost or change something from a negative to a positive (exposed to a poison? You can now reproduce the poison and an antidote for it. Infected with a parasite? You will gain traits from it and abilities specifically designed to kill it and ensure your not exposed to it again. An enemy capable of adapting? Set their body into overdrive or create effects that change cause and effect. An enemy who can simply resurrect somewhere else? Your wounds are bound by fate to keep coming back or simply destroy any ways of resurrection, etc.)

Shifting Blade: Even your form has infinite potential as your blade is capable of shifting into any other blade type such as a Katana, Wakizashi, Nadachi, Tantō, and any other form a Zanpakutō’s sealed state has resembled. This also grants your body similar abilities allowing you to change your form at will.

Shifting Allegiance: A Zanpakutō is a blade that has absorbed the spiritual energy of a wielder and developed a soul of its own, you are unique in that you can blend the energies of any who should hold your blade allowing you to become an amalgamation of the nature of any who used you. With “Shifting Blade” you can choose to adopt a single nature placing all others in a kind of storage or hibernation tell you need to call upon them.

Disguise: You are capable of disguising your form whether that be your blade appearing as a cane, bat, or other item or you disguising your actual form to appear as a human (removes the need for a guigia) or soul reaper (or Quincy/Hollow/Other depending on choices taken).

Shikai: The first release of a Zanpakutō, you may create (along with the Kaigo) and/or copy the Shikai of one or more Zanpakutō (Canon, Fanon, or from other media) you can choose if they all blend or you freely switch between them (this can also include you adopting their form or aspects of their form).

Constant Release: Unlike most Zanpakutō you may choose to always exist in your Powered up state without suffering from energy drain or other negative consequences you can even choose to be present in a weakened state of your powered up form.

Bankai: The second released state of a Zanpakutō resulting in the spirit being brought out of the inner world to interact with the “physical” world, though you are materialized naturally you can create your bankai and/or copy the bankai of one or more Zanpakutō (canon, fanon, or from other media), you can choose if they all blend of if you can freely switch between them (this can include adopting physical traits of the copied Zanpakutō).

Reality Marble: Different franchise but it explains the option well, as a free Zanpakutō rather (or alongside) manifesting yourself into the world you can manifest your inner world into the world similar to a reality marble from the fate franchise. If you copied another Zanpakutō’s Shikai or Bankai you could gain a copy of their inner world to manifest as well.

Beyond: Bankai isn’t the final state of a Zanpakutō as they can evolve and grow as their wielder does or develop a state beyond bankai where Shinigami and Zanpakutō fuse into a combined spirit with high levels of power greater than any bankai. You may create your own beyond bankai state and/or copy/create one or more beyond bankai states from another Zanpakutō (canon, fanon, other media). You may choose if they fuse together or you can freely switch between each one (including gaining traits based on the Zanpakutō you copied). Optionally, if you took “Constant Release” then you may choose to have it so that you and your Shinigami have fused so completely that there is no divide between you rather than a Shinigami and a Zanpakutō spirit there is simply you, this will grant you the full powers and abilities of a full Shinigami as well as allow you to split into your two bodies while possessing your singular mind (this will not strain you in anyway and as far as anyone else could tell your components would seem to truly be full members of their species).

What Rules: You exist outside the norm for a Zanpakutō and thus are not subject to the same rules as other Zanpakutō such as; not being created by Oetsu Nimaiya (and this impervious to his attacks and his ability to sense Zanpakutō), not being bound to a single blade being capable of existing as more (if taken with “Shifting Blade” then you can exist as as many swords as you desire while being capable of knowing everything going on with them), like Katen Kyōkotsu you can separate your spirit to create another entity (if you created more than one Shikai or Bankai or copied some than you could possess a “body” for each of them, you can choose if they are their own being subservient to you or if they are a hive mind, you can dismiss these bodies at will), you can possess multiple types as well as have your Shikai and bankai have nothing to do with one another, unlike sword fiends you will never go mad or dissipate because you have no wielder (if you have no wielder), and greatest of all you can regenerate even if completely destroyed including resorting your bankai. You always seem to beneficially be different from all other like you, removing weaknesses and gaining greater aspects.

Hollow-ified: You have been “tainted” in a scene or your Shinigami has/had been as you now possess hollow spiritual energy similar to the hollow White, this will allow you to manifest a hollow mask, possess anyone who wields your blade, access to resurrection like an Arrancar (you may create your own and/or copy one or more from any other Hollow/Visored; canon, fanon, other media), you have also gained a complete immunity to the theft or reproduction of your form or abilities. If taken with “Disguise” you would be able to take the form or a Hollow/Arrancar/Visored. If taken with “Beyond” you can now create a Hollow/Arrancar form alongside your Shinigami and Zanpakutō Spirit or combine your hollow and Shinigami into a Visored,

Hōgyoku: You have fully fused with your own fully awakened Hōgyoku, granting you complete control of its abilities while also boosting your own to similar level to Aizen and the Espada when fused with their Hōgyoku, this can include the cosmetic effects displayed by them. You may also choose to gain one or more of the powers, abilities, forms granted by the Hōgyoku from canon, fanon, and other media you can blend them or swap them as you choose. Optionally, you may gain more than one Hōgyoku bound to you gain extra power and allowing you to create a physical form of the Hōgyoku outside your body (you can reabsorb no matter where it is at anytime.).

Quincy Power Manifestation: Your Shinigami must have had Quincy in their bloodline as you now possess all the abilities and powers except of a Quincy with none of the negative, you may choose to create your own abilities and/or copy one or more Quincy abilities (canon, fanon, other media). If taken with “Disguise” you could appear as a full Quincy. If taken with “Beyond” you can create a Quincy self alongside your Shinigami and Zanpakutō Spirit selves.
