[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]PERSONALITY

[attr="class","hopelovetop"]

Savarin will generally approach new situations in an analytical way, eager to answer the questions surrounding the occurrence. He views most things as a learning experience, or at the very least a teaching experience. He is very interested in seeking out the truth behind the mysteries of the world, both the mortal and spiritual varieties. His inquisitive nature becomes obvious fairly quickly given his tendency to ask questions and discuss even fairly trivial or tangential things at length.
[break][break]
He is not particularly quick to anger, nor is he constantly eager to fight; he would rather find another solution to the problem. When a fight breaks out, he relies on keeping his distance and powerful spells to defeat his enemies.

[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]BIOGRAPHY

[attr="class","hopelovetop"]

Savarin Alexander was born to a fairly well off upper-middle class family in Europe. Very early on in his life he developed a fascination with the occult, religion, conspiracy theories, and mysteries of the universe. Sometime after obtaining his degree, Savarin visits Japan, pursuing rumors of ghosts and masked demons. During this time he meets a group of spiritually aware humans and confirms the existence of the spiritual world.
[break][break]
Over the next few years, Savarin develops a ritual to maintain his knowledge and awareness of this world in the next. It was successful, though he wouldn't know the full effects until he died. It also had the side effect of when he awoke in Rukongai after his death, he would be the same age as he was at the time of completion, so he would not be an old man in the afterlife when he died decades later.
[break][break]
Spoiler alert, he did not die decades later as an old man.
[break][break]
A few years later, Savarin returns to Japan, investigating some occult mysteries surrounding Aokigahara. After being targeted and killed by a hollow, konsu'd almost immediately by a shinigami that arrived a little bit too late. Savarin awakens in an alley in the 42nd district of Rukongai 144 days after his soul burial, retaining full memory of his life and appearing as an adult in his early-mid 30s.
[break][break]
Savarin attracts the attention of a shinigami, who informs him of his elevated spiritual power and brings him to the academy; he is taught basics about the afterlife that he didn't know. Savarin keeps the ritual to himself and is officially enrolled in the academy and granted an Asuachi. His melee skills are lacking, he picks up kido and the art of controlling his reiatsu quickly.

[break]APPEARANCE // Other than the pentagram tsuba, there is nothing particularly notable about Savarin's zanpakuto. It appears to be a regular single-edged katana, though longer than the standard issue to account for Savarin's distinctly non-asian height. The blade is roughly 82 cm (~32 in / 2.7 shaku) long, with a bone tsuka about 26 cm long (~10.2 in / 8.5 sun), for a total length of about 108 centimeters and total weight of 1.332 kg.
[break]SPIRIT // A formless shadow with what seem to be hundreds of babbling mouths, N͏҉̴ȩ̵̛҉͢c̨͢r̴͜͝o̶̧͟n͏̸̵̡o̵̶͘҉m̨͘͢í̴͜ç̵̵o̡͘̕͢҉n̶̶̴̨͡ never stops talking; incessantly talking with dozens of mouths at a time, Savarin has learned to catch the flow of thoughts as they trickle from different throats. A word from that voice, a sentence from that one, eventually pulling together some manner of sense. While the spirit talks about anything and everything, a solid personality has not been established; sometimes the voices that make up the spirit are helpful, sometimes mischievous, and sometimes malevolent.

RELEASE COMMAND // "Reveal, Ń͢͞͏͝è̡c̴͢͝r̡̛̕o҉̛̀n̷̡ò҉̧͟͢m̵̷͞͏͞í͘͜͠͝c̕͘͝o̧҉̢̡̨n̷͟͟!"
[break]RELEASE APPEARANCE //
[break]With a puff of acrid smoke, Savarin's zanpakuto disappears and is replaced by a large book, bound in dark tan leather and bands of seemingly rusted steel. Roughly 30 cm by 20 cm closed, the book maintains it's weight of 1.332 kg from it's unreleased state. When the book remains closed, it is unremarkable, though it is constructed solidly enough to parry some weaker strikes. Upon opening the book, it floats around Savarin in lazy circle a few inches away (though it won't move to intercept any attacks). While it hovers, a voice comes from the book; the speaker is different every time the book is opened, and it consists of nonsense more often than not. Practitioners of kidō may notice snippets of various incantations in the gibberish of the book.

[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]SKILLS

[attr="class","hopelovetop"]

Mastery Chart:

[break][break]REIATSU CONTROL // Expert
[break]Savarin has excellent control over his reiatsu, which in turn helps to fuel his focus on kidō and shunpō, which both require precise control.
[break][break]ZANPAKTUOU ATTUNEMENT // Below Average
[break]Savarin can hear the mutterings of thousands of voices from his zanpakuto, but other than occasionally the occasional word or phrase, it's more of an annoyance than anything else.
[break][break]KIDŌ // Expert
[break]Savarin dedicated much of his mortal life to mysticism, and that translated quite effectively into kidō; called a kidō prodigy at the academy, for having only been dead 2 years, he's become quite proficient.
[break][break]SHUNPO // Adept
[break]Savarin's excellent reiatsu control combined with his training in shunpō allows him to shunpō quickly and shunpō often.
[break][break] ZANJUTSU // Below Average
[break]Savarin has never had much of an interest in martial arts outside of their ritualistic practices, and would rather spend his time researching or learning a new spell then getting better with his zanpakuto.
[break][break]HAKUDA // Novice
[break]Ditto zanjutsu, but moreso.
