Description Edited cause it was pointed out I may have overpowered Slipstreme which was not my intent.
...........................................................................................
Species: Machairodus giganteus or the Great Chinese Scimitar Cat

Appearance: Light gray fur darker above, greenish gray random markings, streaks under eyes, tipped ears and tail. Blue eyes, wine colored nose. Silver spike piercings above brow and on chin. Hollow mask remnant is reminiscent of a skull dragon. Can alter body from anthro to four legged form freely. Tattoo on back around hollow hole resembling a starburst, number on either wrist (haven't decided which looks better). Hollow hole in chest is tied to the heart chakra, representing his loneliness.

Personality: Slipstreme is generally laid back and friendly but wary and not trusting of others, and does not form strong alliances with anyone. He is exceedingly lonely and wishes to fill the void of his missing family. He is reluctant to fight but once started becomes increasingly sadistic if not downright lustful for bloodshed and wants to see his opponent die in the most horrific way possible. He is also an extreme masochist and is not easily hindered by injury.

History OC AU: Slipstreme was the leader of a family of four, died before them and stuck around too long, killing anyone he considered a threat to their well being. The tattoo on his back he inscribed himself, with the sheer force of his reiatsu to remind him of them always.

He evolved naturally through the vasto lorde stage and became an arrancar of his own doing (based on the assumption there was no Aizen).

He wanders the desert on an endless patrol of his ever expanding territory. He rarely ventures to the world of the living now that his family is no longer there.

He appreciates shinigami as agents of balance, but is incredibly protective of his home, would outright attempt to slay anyone he considered an invader, and does not like to see other hollows die to shinigami, but has no qualms about hollows consuming other hollows.

History with Canon characters: Aizen made Slipstreme and intended his use as a terror weapon due to his abilities. Slipstreme never trusted Aizen, and thus never really paid any heed to what he said. He is considered an annoyance, and is not really allowed in Las Noches, relegated to the fringes of the city, but it doesn't stop him from bugging Szayel to participate in performing experiments, challenging Grimmjow who he sees as a rival (they are both cats lol) or following Ulquiorra around like a loyal puppy dog, of which he considers himself a fraccion.

He can often be seen in his room hanging from flesh hooks, amongst his macabre art pieces made from the parts of his victims performing rituals that he considers important to his spiritual growth.

Abilities: Slipstreme is a hand to hand combatant, armed with blades that span the length of his arms that come out of his skin. He is masterful at evasion but not very strong a fighter. Most of his techniques were developed out of boredom and serve as defensive in nature.

He can completely suppress his reiatsu and disappear off the radar. He would make an excellent spy.

High speed regeneration that includes organs, makes him highly resilient to permanent damage, developed through macabre performances. He would only be weak against weapons designed to affect his material's atomic structure. However his regeneration is not instant, and would not be able to return to the battlefield for a while.

He can shape and control cero energy into whatever he wishes for a couple minutes, which enables him to deflect others' ceros, not including ceros oscuros. Makes for a fantastic light show! They are otherwise useless, as they can't be fired like normal ceros and fizzle out in the air.

Slipstreme can fire normal red ceros, is incapable in normal form of firing gran ray ceros and is incapable entirely of ceros oscuros.

Resurreccion: El Gran Buho Sangrissimo (under construction) 95% of his vasto lorde power was locked into this form via Aizen, making his normal form about as strong as a typical human martial arts fighter (perhaps comparable to Sado?).

The twin soul, that of an evil scientist owl (Gorath for those who know him) he was spiritually tied to in life, in Slipstreme takes over, making him a nearly unstoppable machine bent on total destruction (friend or foe). The only way to get him out of it is to knock him out or kill him. He can not leave the form of his own free will.

He will not use it unless there is absolutely no other choice, and often will get nearly killed in battle instead of resorting to this form.

Drawbacks:
As an arrancar Slipstreme is much weaker than he was as a vasto lorde, except in Resurreccion.
No long range combative abilities except average cero.
No strong hierro, meaning he can be easily cut.

Advantages:
Highly evasive
Can hide from reiatsu sensitives
Can heal from most damage over time
Decent sonido (mainly from distancing self from potential threats)

Extra points if you get the numerical reference.
Art=Mine; Slipstreme=Mine; Bleach=Kubo Tite

Thanks!

It does help that Slipstreme (and the owl mentioned in the Resurreccion) has been around as my personal character for years, so a lot of his personality and his species was already developed.

Though the clothes and mask remnant did go through a couple redesigns before I settled on a look.

Your character is nicely done but I don't like Bleach. The only thing I liked from that show was "GOOOOD MOOORNIIINNG, ICHIGOO!!" I'll admit I couldn't stop laughing at that.
