Witch Hunter

name: Maria Araújo

age: 73 (looks to be 19)

gender: female

personality:
Maria is a harsh straight forward person. if annoyed she will blatantly say it and if it continues she will resort to threats and violence. she has a love for wolves, dogs, and foxes and will go out of the way to make sure they go unharmed. She also participated in witch/vampire hunts. and if the opportunity presents itself she will hunt these "witches"and vampires (possessed humans and demi-hollow). She is passionate about her work, and hates the fact that her abilities have changed her to become more like the creatures she hunts.
In battle she can become a demon, moving fast and getting the hit in before the opponent can even draw there weapon. She prefers point blank shots favoring accuracy and power over her protection.
She has grown a taste for blood(her favorite being human). Blood has to be consumed fairly often for her to keep her strength, and when she goes a while without it she gets headaches and becomes irritable.

appearance:
she is from Brazil and has long brown hair and brown eyes. she is 5' 3" and weighs 132lbs she is slender and has an athletic build. Maria also has a hollow scar stretching from her shoulder to the middle of her lower back. she wears a red collared shirt and black leather trench coat. she also wears blue jeans and high heeled boots.

Now as an arrancar she looks as she did as a human. She even prefers to wear the same attire instead of the arrancar outfit. Her hollow hole cannot be seen. The only remains from her hollow self are decorative nails from the claws and fangs.


History/Background:
As a child Maria was a sweet girl. She helped her family when needed. and never fought. The family lived on a farm outside Rio de Janeiro and grew enough crops to live free and sell for profit (the area was high in spirit energy causing the crops to grow faster/bigger etc). The family consisted of the father Ricardo, the mother Juliana, the grandmother Renata, and herself. When it was harvesting time Maria and her grandmother would go out to the field and harvest the crops. One day they were happily picking the maize when Maria saw something at the edge of the field. She called out to it and it responded with a turn of the head. Maria then saw it, Bright yellow eyes surrounded by a white face. Maria was terrified she could not move, could not blink. The grandmother saw a smoky shadow (the creature) and tried to get maria to move. The creature looked around and lunged. Maria's grandmother got in front of her and tried to shield her. The monster attacked the grandmother, and ripped at her till here was no more. Maria stood stricken when she saw her grandmother lying on the ground covered in blood. The monster noticed and turned towards her. It started forward and came at her. Maria turned away and ran but was to late, the monster had clawed her back and left a scar that would stay with her until her death. The monster came again and readied another attack but stopped. It turned to its left and then fell into dust. Maria looked over and saw a flash of white but a moment later it was gone.
Maria cried herself to sleep that night. The parents already knew something was strange about Maria but passed it off as nothing but now they were afraid. They took her into town and gave her to the church to take care of. Maria learned alot there. She learned to read, to write, to do numbers, but most importantly she learned religion. She learned that the things that attacked her grandmother were demons of hell. and that they thrived in this world killing many. Maria then decided she would help the world and hunt the demons. Maria lived there for a while then she joined the army where she fought and was experimented on. The army and the hunts changed Maria. She was no longer that same sweet girl that died 8 years ago, she was harsh, and cold, and straight to the point. During one of the experiments she gained new powers unlike any ever seen before. She could now tell what was going on and could kill more efficiently. Both the church and the army left her. She was alone now, she was now a rouge witch hunter, wanted by nobody, and hated by all.

I am going to post the updates to this page.


A hollow named Bruxa ate Maria's soul. Several weeks had passed. Bruxa continued with his normal everyday hollow life. He killed many innocents and devored many souls.

Appearance: Bruxa looks like a giant black humanoid creature with large bulging muscles. He has a large mask covering his face. He also has large black braids with white caps, that hang from the back of his head. His hollow hole is located in the center of his chest. He has long claws, and sharp teeth.

Abilities: Bruxa has no special abilities, however he is much faster and stronger than all the other hollow.

Bruxa, now devored by a Menos Grande, dissolved into the many hollow that make up a menos. The menos returned to it's home in Hueco Mundo. With Bruxa out of the picture Maria was able to surface. She drove the normal mind of the menos away and became the primary mind at work. She had no memory of her past life, and gave no care to what happened around her. Due to her previous status as a High spiritual human she had a bigger appetite than all the other menos and ate alot of her fellow menos. She evolved into a gillian class hollow.

Appearance: Maria reverted back to Bruxa's form. The body however was less bulky and muscular.

Abilities: She has all the basic hollow abilities- cero, high speed regeneration, heiro. Maria has the added ability to drain an opponents blood. Maria can intake the blood and strengthen herself.

Maria has eaten many more hollows. She has evolved into an adjuchas class hollow. She now can communicate with other beings, and her body has become less manly and more feminine.

Appearance: The braids on her head have become smaller and longer, she has less bulky shoulders, and wider hips. She is starting to look less muscular and has grown a little more fat.

Abilities: same as before, but enhanced. She can find out information via the blood that she has drank. Things such as; diet, power level, race(shnigami, human, vaizard, hollow, half hollow/soul reaper), weakness, etc.

(forgot to post this earlier. I'm gonna start the next chapter here shortly.)

I forgot to update with Maria's full powers. This is how she would have evolved had the event story gone on.



After several years of wandering the plains of Hueco Mundo she is now a Vasto lorde. She is now nuch more intelligent and has a massive reiatsu, often killing small hollow that live in the sands without a move.

Appearance: Maria now looks like an old hag. Her mask has molded to a human-like face. She has thick folds of skin hanging from her arms and legs. She is hunched over and from a distance looks like an ordinary old lady.

Abilities: same as before, but can now use sonido. Her blood has become very acidic, and can disintergrate most any material.

----------------------------------------------

Maria became an arrancar natturaly, by finding her old gun. She now resides as a lone, arrancar.

Apperance: Now as an arrancar she looks as she did as a human. She even prefers to wear the same attire instead of the arrancar outfit. Her hollow hole cannot be seen. The only remains from her hollow self are decorative nails from the claws and fangs.

Abilities: she now has her old gun back, Her gun can normally fire bala santamente, as well as arrancar bala if she channels it into the barrel. Her gun also acts like an arrancar's zanpakuto, sealing her ressurecion inside of it. She has the same abilities as other arrancar. She is able to fire cero, bala, sonido, hierro, pesquisa. Her cero is charged from the tip of her right middle finger. it is dual spiraled and is red-orange with a purpule outline.

Ressurecion: her release phrase is "Bebida Vampiro.(drink vampire)" Her nails grow into claws, her hair twines into braids and she gets saggy wrinkled skin. In this form she is dressed in rags, She has the same abilities that she had as a vasto lorde.

---------------------------------------------

When she joined The midnight flower orgonization, she was able to grow in power. With experimentation, and help from other arrancar. Maria was able to learn to control her powers even better, and can realize her full resureccion. Her ressurecion has changed. She can still use her last one as a partial release.

Maria focuses her energy into her gun, and fires it into the air. The bullet explodes a few feet from her and a black liquid like substance covers her. She emerges as a being of shadow. [picture] Her eyes are red, her ears are pointed, and only her sharp teeth are white. In this form She goes crazy, and starts killing anything within site, including companions. She will not stop till she has killed everything, or has her intense lust for blood quenched.

She has long sharp claws, that can cut through steel like butter, and can penetrate all but the toughest hiero. Her senses are so acute that it is difficult to sneek up on her. Her speed is rarely matched and she can produce a sonido of greater than mach 3, more akin to teleportation than anything. Although she can be hurt by normal means, she ignores bloodloss, and will just ignore any attack, untill she can't move anymore. Her biggest weakness, is her frenzy. She can easily be led into a trap, and if there is a huge amount of blood(like a decapitated limb) she will imediately ignore everything else untill she has dealt with it.
