So, I have narrowed my possible alts down to two characters:
- Zenji Otsuka: A pacifistic monk who was of an order of monks meant to defend the others in case of attack. His Shikai, Kame, would affect time for him, slowing time down to a bare crawl as he enters a state of Mokuso ("empty mind"). This allows him to dodge and deflect attacks much more easily as he could take seconds to react to an attack that would complete in a fraction of a second. This character has many options for emotional growth, though one of the most obvious is learning that sometimes peace is impossible or something along that vein.
- Hanatsu Hakyoku: Assassin for hire during his life. Ended up dying in a purge of the organization he worked for. As a result he has become somewhat distrustful of any organization without a clear line of accountability. As such, he is very rule focused, and absolutely cannot stand people making actions outside of what he considers to be the rules of accountability. His Shikai is Sen konoha dansu, this zanpakuto becomes a medium sized zone of leaves that 'dance' through the air. Within this static zone, Hanatsu can disperse into leaves (limited in consecutive use by zanpakuto resonance) and reappear anywhere else in the dancing leaves (speed of which depends on his hoho and speed).
