~::Las Noches Spirit Training (Hollow/Arrancar Skill/Spell)::~


There are four main areas of study in spiritual combat, and none of them are to be taken lightly. And while hand-to-hand combat, movement skills, and other arts are important, a spiritual warrior can truly become a nightmare for enemies when they've mastered the vast array of spiritual skills available to bolster their arsenal. Skills and spells come in all shapes, all sizes, and all degrees of power. By coming to the training area located at the Hidden Waterfall and signing training for certain skills, a spiritual warrior may eventually learn these skills and give them an edge against their enemies.

Some skills are easy to master. Some are difficult. Varying degrees of time will be required to learn the spells for different people, and some spells will remain beyond the reach of lower-powered warriors until they evolve and their spiritual pressure grows enough to handle them. Mastering the realm of spiritual skill combat is certainly a clear path to lead one to the rank of a masterful warrior!

Hollow/Arrancar who are in training will require varied times to master the their skills and spells. Keep in mind that rest will be required in training, and that simply remaining here longer to try and learn your spells will only weaken you and make them more difficult to master. There is no set time limit to learn a spell, and it will only be learned after a ranked member of your race witnesses and approves its mastery. If they do not feel you have mastered the spells, you may have to continue training a little longer. Remember, Rome wasn't built in a day, so neither will you likely master all the skills you want in one!

List of Known Hollow/Arrancar Abilities


Hollow/Gillian/Adjuchas/Arrancar Arts

Hierro - A skill which allows a hollow to harden their skin like iron, making it difficult to pierce their skin. A low-level defensive technique.

Sonido - The Arrancar equivalent to Shunpo, the Sonido is a movement technique which greatly increases the speed of a hollow and makes it difficult to see them if an enemy doesn't have comparable speed.

Cero - The great destructive technique of hollows, the cero is a red and black ball of energy with a significant destructive power. Sizes vary, but all have at least moderate power.

Pesquisa - A technique by which Arrancar can locate every spiritual signature in an area and identify the strength of each spiritual pressure.

Bala - A weaker energy blast utilized by hollows and Arrancar, the Bala is said to be faster than the cero while lacking its destructive power. Low damage.

Negacion - A technique used by Menos Grande which engulfs an ally in another dimension in an impassible barrier and draws them back into Hueco Mundo. Once the light engulfs a person, they cannot be touched by an enemy, nor can they attack from the inside. It is strictly a rescue technique.


Espada Arts

Gran Rey Cero - A more powerful version of the cero exclusive to Espada, its destructive power and size make its use impractical inside, and even its use inside Las Noches is discouraged.

Gemelos Sonido - A specialized Sonido developed and mastered by Zommari Leroux which produces up to five after-images in conjunction with a vast increase in speed an agility. Similar to a heightened version of Shunpo.

Armeria Hierro - A specialized Hierro originally used by Nnoitra Jiruga to harden the user's skin even beyond the defensive power of a normal Hierro. Exclusive to Espada.

Caja Negacion - A portable Negacion which was initially used to punish low-level Arrancar by their Espada, which can also temporarily keep stronger enemies/allies within for a short period of time. Used initially by Grimmjow Jeagerjaques against Ulquiorra Schiffer to allow him to battle Ichigo Kurosaki unimpeded.

Gonzui - A soul-sucking technique used by Yammy to draw out the spirit of humans and beings within a certain radius. Easy to resist for anyone with significant spiritual pressure.

Black Cero - A black cero which is significantly more powerful than the Gran Rey Cero, said to be the "true form" of an Espada's cero. Due to its destructive power, which is said to be capable of wiping out all of or a large portion of Las Noches, its use in the White Dome is forbidden by Lord Aizen. (Exclusive to Espada Rank 1-4.)

Instantaneous Black Cero - An instantaneous version of the Black Cero developed and currently known only by Ulquiorra Schiffer. To use this, one must not only have mastered the Black Cero, but must also experience a significant increase in spiritual pressure after the mastery of Black Cero, perhaps even an evolution to another form. (Currently unavailable to anyone but Ulquiorra Schiffer)
