Shiramizu Amaya

Here we have my OC Shiramizu Amaya

Her name translates to White water Night Rain

Anyway... I'm disappointed in how this turned out and damn >.< I forgot the other side of her neck tattoo
I've been working on her for quiet a bit... but still haven't developed her zanpakutō yet.

Age: [/u] appears 22
Died: [/u] 1958
How: [/u] Strangled by a rope
Quote: [/u] Keizoku koso chikara nari.
*** Literally: [/u]Continuance (also) is power/strength.
***Meaning: [/u] Don't give up. Just continuing to hold on will yield/reveal strength and power. Continuing on after a setback is its own kind of strength. Perseverance is power.
Squad: [/u] 9th Division (4th seat)

Bio: [/u] A Japanese woman who is silly, energetic, and a bit of a child. She was born in Wakkanai in the Soya Prefecture of Japan. The reason she was killed was for cheating on her husband with a man named Emishi. Despite that fact she still smiles although she can become eerily quiet and depressed.

Amaya does much origami as she had hoped to make 1000 as the legend says to make a wish of better the health the wish she was going to make for Emishi; however, she never made it having been strangled around 967 cranes. She will often encourage herself by saying 'Keizoku koso chikara nari' (Don't Give Up). She has an affection toward birds and pigs and enjoys the fashions that exist in the living world. She usually has a white feather in her hair as well.

In her shinigami uniform she will usually wears bracers on her arms she also wears her shirt loose and off her shoulders showing her bosom and her skirt having a slit in it along with that the heal to her sandals are thicker and a bit higher than normal ones. Around the hilt of her was zanpakutō is a small rope of hemp with a feather tied to it.

Extra: [/u] The tattoo on her neck is to symbolize the way she had died. She also has a scar along the small of her back where she had been attacked by a hollow. She enjoys being in the company of her captain and lieutenant and has begun to have an urge to steal Captain Kaname Tosen's visor. Her favorite food is Fugu (because she finds it entertaining that she will probably not die from eating it now) and Zoni Soup. Because of his '69' tattoo she also at times calls Hisagi... Lord of the Kama Sutra referring to the position. She can be vulgar and gets herself in trouble sometimes and at times is air headed. (Other personality traits yet to be developed) Due to her love of the crane I decided to design her ponytail a bit like the crown of a Grey Crowned Crane.

Fun Fact: [/u] Once she was assigned to the United States in which she was there during Halloween and decided to come back dressed up as a Arrancar... in which she was nearly killed for. She was also exposed to Dia de Los Muertos where she was helping send souls to Soul Society and when she meets Chad she asks him to make sugar skulls for her... in which Yachiru ends up taking. ... my bro also says her theme song should be Ramalama Bang Bang by Roison Murphy... but thats still unsettled

Ok a lotta info... but there's still more to go. I'm not going to write about her zanpakutō since I don't know what it is yet or what kind of sword either. Anyway...

SELF CRITICISM [/u] [/i]

I don't like the eyes all too much... her left arm (your right) is way too skinny... and I dislike the torso.... it was so much better without the Sharpie outlining.
