Have you played in an LJ based game before? Yep!
Bonus: How did you hear about Siren's Pull? I play Ryuuken and Orochimaru here.

Just to note, this is a reapp! I played Nnoitra at SP from the opening until a few months ago when I dropped him due to being busy IRL. If possible, I'd like for him to keep his memories of his time in SP.

Character Information

General
Canon Source: Bleach
Canon Format: Anime and Manga
Character's Name: Nnoitra Jiruga
Character's Age: Undetermined! He is an ‘evil spirit’ type and is basically ageless. He seems to be somewhere in his twenties, but appearances are deceiving.

What form will your character's NV take? I had to think about this for a quite some time. I’ll be going with a friend’s suggestion. As Nnoitra is a violent technophobe who may be a misogynist, his NV will take the form of something familiar to him: a decapitated head. More specifically, decapitated, tiny, floating head. Even more specifically, Neliel tu Oderschvank’s decapitated, tiny, floating head. I feel this is sufficiently violent and creepy enough to suit Nnoitra’s personality. The head would speak to deliver messages, and he could speak to it to have them written or to post audio. Video would be taken from the eyes and delivered possibly by some kind of telepathy. The eyes would also serve to beam out holographic images.

Abilities
Character's Canon Abilities: Nnoitra is the 5th, or Quinta, Espada in Aizen’s (main antagonist of the series) army. This means he is the 5th strongest ’soldier’ out of them all. He is incredibly powerful, having very high spiritual pressure (reiatsu), extremely hard skin (hierro), super speed (sonido), and enhanced spiritual pressure sensing abilities (pesquisa). He is also a master swordsman. In his Resurreccion, Nnoitra gains two more sets of arms, for a total of six, as well as displaying extremely fast healing abilities. Nnoitra’s sword (zanpakutou) is called Santa Teresa. It is a dual crescent shaped blade which he uses for both short and long range combat, it being connected to his waist by a chain. During his Resurreccion, Santa Teresa splits into one scythe-like blade for each arm Nnoitra possesses. The blades come out of his wrists and can be regenerated just like his flesh if lost. Nnoitra is capable of using Cero and Bala like most other members of his race. More information on his abilities here: ( http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Nnoitra_Jiruga )
Weapons: Nnoitra’s primary weapon is his zanpakutou, Santa Teresa. As discussed above, the weapon changes depending on whether it is released or not. He is also fond of using Cero on his opponents, which are fired from the tip of his tongue. It should be noted Nnoitra is not a fair fighter, and will employ any technique if it will help him win.

History/Personality/Plans/etc.
Character History: Nnoitra is not one of the main antagonists, but he is no minor one either. A good listing of his history can be found here: ( http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Nnoitra_Jiruga ). I cover most of this in the personality section as support for his characterization.

Point in Canon: Soon before his Resureccion in his fight against Kenpachi.

Nnoitra watched Grimmjow and Ichigo’s fight. When Ichigo won, Nnoitra stepped in to kill Grimmjow, but was stopped by Ichigo. He then began to beat on Ichigo, using his Fraccion (subordinate), Tesla, to continue doing this when he became bored with the fight. Just as Tesla was about to really hurt Ichigo or possibly kill him, Kenpachi showed up. He killed Tesla when Tesla made a move against him. Nnoitra and Kenpachi began fighting soon after. Nnoitra was coming out on top at first but then the tide began to turn…
Conditional: Brief summary of previous RP history: Nnoitra views Microcosm as paradise because there is much to see and plenty of individuals to fight, eat, and fuck. He has a nice string of plot with Szayel, Aizen, and Kabuto. He also has good CR with Tesla, Neliel, and Tibarn.

Szayel pissed him off when he first came to the city, so Nnoitra cut the bitch. He got a new Fraccion in Kabuto some time afterwards. Szayel took the next opportunity to experiment on Nnoitra in return. Nnoitra was pissed, especially after Aizen found out about it and demoted him. He decided he was going to be more stealthy and he used his Fraccion to help him revenge rape Szayel, who decided to show him how it is done. Nnoitra is currently busy finding out what the hell is going on with Tesla. And next he will drag Tesla to Szayel and make him fix it.

Nnoitra has also been antagonizing and attempting to seduce Neliel and using that creeper Tesla for a backup when nothing better is around.

What can be seen from this is that Nnoitra is pissed off at Szayel and Tesla, not feeling very loyal to Aizen (though the rank was returned with a handwave at some point), and up to using Tesla for his other needs now. He also doesn't have a problem with making others his Fraccion.

Character Personality:

Nnoitra Jiruga is rude, crude, and lewd. He curses, makes inappropriate remarks, and uses force to get what he wants. No subject is taboo to him, and no one is safe from him.

Nnoitra has a huge inferiority complex and can’t stand it when people are stronger than him, especially women. He views himself as the strongest of the Espada even though he is ranked Quinta (Fifth). While it is true he has moved up from the Octava (Eighth) to the Quinta, he is still far from being the strongest. As Ulquiorra explains in canon, the power difference from Quinta to Cuarta (Fourth) is unimaginable. This is why those ranked Fourth and above are not allowed to release their full power inside Las Noches.

Despite everything, Nnoitra still claims to be the strongest Espada. He will not accept help from anyone because he views it as weakness and he is not weak. He will even go so far as to hurt those that do try to help him, as can be seen on the occasions his Fraccion (subordinate) Tesla tried to aid him. He spits on the idea of kindness and pity, and would rather be killed if he loses--a twisted form of honor in battle. Only the strong should survive, in his opinion.

Much like Zaraki Kenpachi, Nnoitra lives for a good fight and has an extreme lust for blood. He is the epitome of rebelliousness, even moreso than Grimmjow, and will disobey orders if it means following his true passion. This is shown when he violates a direct order by going after Kurosaki Ichigo.

Nnoitra has little interest in fighting those he thinks are weak. He’ll kill the weak for sport, as shown when he slaughters an entire Hollow colony, but would rather fight stronger opponents. Everything is a test of strength, and each new opponent is a way for him to prove himself the strongest Espada.

He also appears to be a sadist. This can be seen in the gleeful desire he takes in killing or harming others and his eager reaction to Tesla hurting Ichigo.

Nnoitra is a blatant male chauvinist and possibly a misogynist. He views women very poorly and cannot stand it if they are stronger than he is. No female should be in a higher position than a male, in Nnoitra’s opinion. This was the basis for his dislike of Neliel Tu Oderschvank, the former Tercera (Third) Espada. The two fought many times when Nnoitra was the Octava, and she always beat him. She didn’t take him seriously as a warrior, nor did she believe his reason for fighting was a good one. This and the fact she was a female of higher rank than he was greatly angered Nnoitra. In collaboration with Szayel Aporro Grantz, he finally managed to overcome her. Afterwards, he dumped her outside Las Noches and vowed to become stronger for their next battle. Thus, it can be seen Nnoitra will use any means to get what he wants if it is something he truly desires. Or if he is angry enough.

In his canon, Nnoitra is depicted as being very lewd. He is shown hypothesizing about the relationship between Ulquiorra and Orihime, to whom he refers as ‘pet-sama.’ Later, he makes a point of shoving his fingers in her mouth in a very suggestive manner. This, in addition to his antagonistic attitude toward Halibel and Neliel depicts him as the pervert he is.

Most characters will only get to see Nnoitra’s angry side, but those he is close enough with or feels something beyond scorn for may get to see his introspective side. Hollow are beings born from fear, rage, or despair. Nnoitra exemplifies the latter, as can be seen in his backstory when he muses on the purpose of battle and talks about how hopeless the Arrancar’ situation really is. In this, he is perhaps one of the wisest of the Arrancar. He realizes that no matter how strong they are, they still have no hope. This could be the reason he is so antagonistic and throws himself blindly into battle; it is easier to be angry than sad.

Despite all of his flaws, there is some good in Nnoitra. Though he abuses Tesla, he shows genuine concern for him when he tries to warn him about Kenpachi’s strength. In the past, when he and Szayel overpowered Neliel, he could have easily killed her but he did not. Even the fact he basically wanted to make Szayel his Fraccion can be viewed as an act of kindness. It is unknown when Szayel was demoted from the ranks of the Espada back then, but this could very well have been Nnoitra’s way of thanking him for his help.

Conditional: Personality development in previous game:
Character Plans: Nnoitra does what Nnoitra wants! Basically, he is a rogue. He won’t care about money or helping people or the newest shithole (Siren’s Port) he finds himself in. He won’t care about employment or taking sides either, as he will attempt to take anything and everything he needs (from NPCs or with player consent, from another character). All Nnoitra will want to do is fight and fuck, respectively. He will seek out tough opponents to prove his worth, for food, and for the mere sadistic pleasure of ending them. Having had his sexual side further awakened--he was already a lecherous pervert, but ‘paradise’ freed him even more--he will try to seduce (poorly) or take what he wants from others (Again, NPCs or with player consent, from another character. Additionally, never, ever to cause drama). I expect he will succeed in fighting some of the monsters, but may eventually have his ass kicked to the curb or die once or twice before he learns his lesson. Even then, he will likely be stubborn about it.

Writing Samples

First Person Sample

[Grainy audio begins playing. There is the sound of cursing, followed by a dull thud.]

Is this shit on? How the fuck do ya tell?

[More cursing, then a sigh.]

The hell with this techno bullshit. Hey! If ya c’n hear me and you’re strong, come the fuck on and fight me. Take yer ass on anytime and win. I’m the motherfucking Quinta. Cocksuckers.

[There is the sound of cackling laughter followed by more cursing.]

Fuck, how does this turn--

[The audio ends with a hiss.]

Third Person Sample

Nnoitra didn’t know what the fuck had happened. One minute he was in paradise and the next, well, wherever this shithole was. Nnoitra stood from where he had been sitting and tried to make out where the hell he was. It was difficult to see with only one scrawny light and a pale ass moon lighting the place. Nnoitra scuffed the dirt at his feet, sniffing. Yeah, this was some kinda human place, alright. But he didn’t sense any of them around. Just whateverthefuck was making that noise off to the left.

Nnoitra felt stiff and sore, dizzy too, as if he’d just been in one helluva fight. But that hadn’t been it--he would have remembered any battle good enough to make him feel this shitty.

The thing to his left hissed again and Nnoitra turned in that direction. It didn’t feel like any Hollow, Arrancar, or even Shinigami he’d known. Not that Nnoitra cared. Whatever the hell it was, he’d beat the shit out of it, kill it, and maybe eat it. It felt strong. Nnoitra bent over, letting his hand brush the ground to determine just how strong it was. His eye widened for a moment and then he grinned. He didn’t give a shit where he was as long as there were plenty of bitches like this around for him to kill. Add in some hot chicks and he’d be all set.

ooc, siren's pull
