oops i forgot that one

I like symbolism in the placement of Hollow holes. Given Nemo's story so far, heart, stomach or throat would all be fitting.
Throat would explain the not-talking-ness?
it seems everyone has forgotten that we're not even a lieutenant in power, let alone the sorts of people who get super special second-stage powerups :V

also lol canon anything
Just because we aren't on that power level yet doesn't mean that we don't need to have it hashed out before we get there, lest we arrive and find the metaphorical place still in shambles.

It's a matter of avoiding incursions from the Salt Hell.
 
[X]Make a detour by Esmeralda's "office" before setting out. She always has her hands on some interesting supplies, and could provide you with useful items for your trip.
[X]Indifferent. The powerful of this world are akin to passing storms than persons. Whoever rules, rules, and small fries like you simply have to try and make a living under them. The personal character of different rulers do not make them better or worse, but simply different flavors of hurricanes.
[X]You had a friend once, a rarity among Menos. Someone you trusted not to try and eat you and who returned that trust. Then one day, he crossed the wrong line. He offended Barragan somehow, and you saw him aged to dust before your eyes.
 
[X] Hurry back to the gate, where if you're quick enough you can catch the spider-hollow before it gets too far. Riding it, you'll get to your destination much faster (and hopefully back faster as well).
- [x] Give him some proper curtains to keep the sand out. Sand in one's hole is not comfortable.
[x] Write-In: Like A Moth To A Flame: Aizen's gift and Aizen's rule freed you from emptiness, and for that you are bound to him, but you are well aware of what happens to those who get too close and cannot withstand the heat. Your service to him is the tension between need and fear.
[x]You did in fact serve under Barragan. For years you were a scout in his army. You left because you feared the devotion of the others. You never expected him to think well of you, but he doesn't even remember your name or your mask, and that stings.

[X]Callous. Might makes right in a dog-eat-dog world. The Espada and Aizen got where they are by being stronger, and even if you can't match them, it's up to you to get as strong as you can be to survive and lord over others.

Submitted OC
Name: John Drew(feel free to change the name to something more "arrancar"ish if you would like)

Voice Claim: Nobuo Tobita (A.K.A the narrator in bleach)

Designation: Arrancar

Zanpakuto: Animate Cuantista (Animate, Storyteller)

Number: 62

Superior: Rudbormn Chelute

Occupation: Maintenance and Construction (Las Noches)

Hollow Hole: Right wrist replacing hand

Mask Fragment: "Glasgow Grin" extending to form horns at either side of forehead (does not actually cover mouth.)

Estigma: Black ink forming lines from eyes to mask fragments

Appearance: White as paper. Eyes black as ink. Hair black and oily. body-type the very image of a well dressed professional in a black suit, black dress shoes, and stark white glove. (basically he looks like a character from the bleach manga rather than anime) wields a sword that is utterly standard save for being pitch black. has tendency to somehow replace (or transform) any object he is given with a black and white counterpart through unknown means


Abilities: strong enough to be a fraccion and well rounded in terms of combat ability if not for his constant theatrics and flourishes that tend to hold him back in battle against foes that he should by all rights be able to beat. somewhat predictable due to only firing cero's from his "hollow" arm though they are stronger than a hollow of his caliber should be able to produce with an equally strong "sword" arm to compensate for his "handed-ness.

Resurrección: After releasing his zanpakuto, John's mask takes on the appearance of a cartoon demon with a grin that covers half of his face and forms small demonic horns above where a normal mask would end, his left hand becomes simultaneously clawed and gloved while his right stump begins to leak ink that quickly turns into a floating claw, the rest of his body "sweats" ink at a significantly slower rate. the ink produced by both his stump and body can be manipulated into any form though John has a preference for creating "faux" hollows,shinigamis, and other creatures to carry out his bidding. His zanpakto takes on the appearance of a conductor's baton(which he uses to direct his ink) that despite it's small size is twice as powerful in every respect than his unreleased sword(though it can no longer cut). John's ink does not disapear until his resureccion is stopped and there has been no observed upper limit to the amount of ink he can control, though he can only maintain his true form for 24 hours.

Personality: Incredibly jovial and animated in his movements despite his monotone voice and complete lack of expression, John tries to become at least on good terms with anyone who has not explicitly rejected his overtures of friendship, seeing no reason why chains of command or opposing battle lines should stop a friendly conversation, even once rejected John maintains his good mood and will continue to chat with anyone interested no matter how many times he has been rejected, only his use as a creator of cheap labor and maintenance through use of his constructs has kept him from being killed by an irritated superior. Upon unleashing his resureccion his tone finally regains the passion he once possessed as a hollow, though his expression becomes blocked by a mask that is now larger than his face.

HISTORY: no idea just came up with the character on the spur of the moment with no history in mind feel free to just create whatever seems justified if you use the character.
"Don't you look so mad, don't you be so mean Make way, give pay to the Ink Machine"

Trying to see what I can come up with using songs and/or franchises as inspiraton. Feel free to use the character however you wish, came up with him today after vote for main character had already been made, figured I may as well do something with him. Stole formatting from @OedonWrithe for lack of a standardized format to use (hope that's okay)

Guys I just thought of something we should have a battle cry I nominate "fear us for we are the mighty moth" as a possible one.
 
They should fear you, for you are the mighty moth!

"She's The Moth! Run!" The ghost samurai exclaims, before following his own advice.
"None shall escape me, oh look a bright light!"shouted THE MOTH(KA-THROOM), causing much confusion and relief to the ghost samurai as the most terrifying MOTH(KA-THROOM) forgot about them.

so just making sure, we are a guy? and we look like this?
with a friend like this?
A girl, and you actually have normal human proportions, not a super deformed artstyle look. This isn't actually a Hollow Knight/Bleach crossover, a dedicated group of players have just taken the references and ran with them :V

I know, I just needed a basis for what the character looks like in my head
