Appearance:
Hollow
Despite being born into the hollow ranks, Arturo since birth had always been cursed with a very humanoid shape. His body itself is slender and layered with white scales that give off a brownish tint whilst under the guise of shadows, each one being a triangular shape and positioned to give off an armour like feel to the hollows otherwise fragile body. Closely mirroring his own bone structure, the armour seems to resemble an exoskeleton over all else, though despite its sturdy looks it is made out of nothing more than the bone like substance that makes up all hollows masks.
Arturo’s hollow hole is positioned in the direct centre of his ribcage, with his scales cupping around it in a formation resembling a blossoming flower. His mask itself is simplistic enough, highly lacking of any fear inducing features and rather, consists of an emotionless facial expression which only serves to boast Arturo’s demonic nature. His mouth constantly remains shut even when talking, giving his voice a sort of metallic echo. Instead, the hollows jagged teeth are only ever revealed when he is biting into flesh in order to devour it.
Gillian
Upon his next stage of transformation, Arturo’s body takes a massive change. His figure would now have warped into a long black pillar which towers over most else, easily able to reach heights most could only follow with their eyes. His hollow hole still remains in the direct centre of his chest, however with his body shrouded in some kind of black cloak it’s hard to tell exactly which part of him is his chest and which is a limb. In this form, Arturo’s speed has been replaced with a monstrous amount of strength which stems from his immense size, a trait which he tends to abuse in order to annihilate his enemies. Despite his titanic size, Arturo still bears some humanoid features such as two trunk like arms, his resemblance still strikingly similar to his hollow form minus the great difference in size.

Hollow Skill:
Sonido Uses: 13
Reserved Hollow Points: 6
Cero Uses: 21
Cero [Zero]
Number of Upgrades: II
Level: Very High
Description:
The user gathers reiatsu to a focal point on their body, such as a fingertip, the tip of a horn, or in their mouth, condensing it into a ball of highly compact spiritual energy. After a few moments of charging, the user releases the Cero as a concentrated beam of reiatsu towards the target. This technique takes longer to prepare for lower level Hollows, and can only make use a fraction of a Hollow’s spiritual energy. This technique can be used once per rank for a Non-Specialist, twice per rank for a Specialist, or three times per rank for a Master. The user may spend extra Hollow Points in order to increase the strength of this ability by one level for every point spent. This ability can only become Very High in strength at maximum.
Restrictions: Must be a Gillian Class Hollow.
Regeneración [Regeneration]
Number of Upgrades:
Level: High
Description:
The user flows reiatsu to a wounded area, consciously or unconsciously, and regenerates it, reassembling any lost parts from spirit particles. This ability consumes a massive amount of reiatsu to perform and is often the deciding factor in both a Hollow’s loss and their survival. However, with conscious effort a Hollow can repress this reaction. This technique generally only triggers for massive wounding or lost appendages, and not lesser wounds. However, this cannot save a Hollow from death if their mask is broken or a large amount of their body is obliterated. This is only the potential for healing that Hollows possess, but few ever increase in power.
Restrictions: This technique is automatically gained when a Hollow obtains Gillian Rank, but is lost upon becoming an Arrancar. A Hollow Point may be spent to keep the ability past Arrancar Class.
Generación de Armas [Weapon Generation]
Number of Upgrades:
Level: Average
Description:
Using his own reiatsu as a catalyst, Arturo can accelerate the growth of his armour which he can then shape to form weapons, usually either lances or javelins. Though this ability allows him to create any type of weapon imaginable as long as it does not involve any moving parts, a preference Arturo has built up over the years is to use weapons that can be thrown over a great distance, the advantage being in the way that they take no more than five seconds each to form. The weapons formed are durable, though would survive no longer than 3 turns at max if they are put under constant damage, though a small portion of reiatsu can be poured into them in order to heal any minor cracks or missing chunks.
Restrictions: Arturo only.
Resonancia [Resonance]
Number of Upgrades: II
Level: High
Description:
This ability Works in conjunction with Generación de Armas. By focusing his reiatsu into a weapon, Arturo can drastically increase both its cutting and piercing power, which is reflected through the unnatural red hue the chosen weapon will take along with the numerous sparks that will bounce off it. The sparking and strong glow Arturo’s weapon takes is the direct result of the reiatsu or rather, the way in which it is constantly rotating, turning the weapon into something much like a chainsaw. Through the constant use of this ability, Arturo has grown more adept in the way that he controls the rotating reiatsu. With the aid of a stabbing motion, the hollow can launch the reiatsu out from the tip of the weapon and into a linear direction up to 25 meters away, piercing through anything in its path at the cost of forever losing the reiatsu used for the technique.
Constant trial and error has now allowed Arturo to increase the scope of this ability, now allowing him to channel it onto a single chosen limb instead of a weapon, giving either one of his arms or legs properties similar to that of a blade. The technique itself has also grown more powerful, allowing anything consumed by its red glow to literally cut through kido or other reiatsu based abilities. Making it particularly effective against defensive shields and explosive based attacks, allowing Arturo to cut through such attacks without setting them off or even forcing them to explode prematurely should he will it to do so.
Restrictions: Arturo only.

History:
-An immortal in a shackled shell
The past chapters of the hollows life have long since been forgotten and buried, however their remnants still exist to this day. Arturo, or Shinzu as he was called back in those days was an average kid as far as the eye could tell. From the day he started school to when he first started a working lifestyle, Shinzu was never a person who stood out or had any special traits or characteristics. Despite his outward appearance however, throughout his childhood, one thing the kid liked to do behind closed doors and away from the eyes of anyone who could judge him was torture small animals.
It wasn’t the actual act of hurting them that Shinzu found pleasure in, but rather the sense in knowing he had the power to either let something live or die. As the young boy became a man, his personality remained solely the same, excluding his mind which grew more and more corrupt. The thing about Shinzu was that that he always carried an air of sophistication and nobility around him when in public, in fact he had always been popular with everyone which erased any doubts of his oddities, however due to his personality he always rejected anyone that came up to him, whether it was for love or simple friendship.
The more time he spent as a loner however, the more convinced he became that he didn’t need anyone beside himself. Unbeknownst to even his own family, Shinzu was actually suffering from a mental illness called god complex in which the victim truly believes he is god or some kind of higher being who is above the standard rules of society. Due to this, the idea of ending small and meaningless existences soon became boring and was replaced with something far more satisfying; ending a fellow human’s life.
Of course to Shinzu the people he killed were hardly seen as equals in his eyes, to him killing another person was no different to slaughtering cattle for food or even squashing flies simply because they are an annoyance. In his lifetime Shinzu had killed twenty or so individuals before he finally got caught and sentenced to death without so much as a trial. Despite this, till the very end not even a drop of fear or remorse ever made its way into his soul; rather his soul was something that he had long since lost. As he drew his last breath, the man let out a hysterical laugh as a few words escaped his lips in the empty cell in which he ended his own life.
“I shall be reborn.”
-Judge of Death
After his death, Shinzu simply refused to let go of the material world as his mind remained fixated on his eventual rebirth. Even as a ghost he truly believed that he was some divine and immortal being, destined to shape the world how he saw fit. The act of killing himself only minutes before his sentence served as a marker to his belief in which only he had the right to control lives. After months of waiting and no signs of him getting back his body any time soon, Shinzu wandered around the city, eavesdropping on the others around him.
It didn’t take long for him to find a handful of individuals who were even more rotten to the core than himself. The only difference was that Shinzu had the confidence to act on his impulses where as these people instead choose to bottle up their actions. With the over powering urge to pass judgment on the corrupt world, the ghost soon lost his sanity and warped into a dark demon or rather a hollow, as his new form liked to describe itself as. Bit by bit, Shinzu soon faded as the new existence called Arturo was born.
Many moons had passed since the hollows birth and each one had bore witness to the creature’s unquenchable thirst for power. Feeding himself like a glutton, he tore through the flesh of humans until eventually amassing enough power to take on stronger prey. Though some may consider the hunger fueling him to be a affliction, it was also the boon that forced Arturo to strive for more in hopes of satisfying this defect of hollow birth.
Lust for power still spurring inside him, Arturo eventually turned on his own kind as he began devouring both fellow hollows and the source of his newfound hatred; Shinigami. With every cell of his body crying out in hopes of nourishment, his hunger began to focus solely on other hollows as their flesh became more and more appetizing with each kill. The resulting genocide of his fellow race eventually caused the creature’s small and fragile body to warp into a tall black pillar as he reached the next stage of evolution; the Gillian class.
