Now You Feel Like Number None [Bleach Arrancar Quest]

No, that's not how it would happen.
The revelation comes when this recurring seemingly low-rank Hollow (who keeps on surviving things) who seems to be working for Espada 10 gets her scarf cut in the middle of a fight. The audience gets to see the Hollow hole through her throat - explaining why she's basically mute - and then there's a reaction shot of everyone else going "Did you feel her power change?".
(Then she uses Cero Triste again, and this time the audience gets to see the mental anguish - and by the time the heroes recover, the moth girl is gone and she's taken her scarf with her. This promotes many fan theories about her nature, including that maybe she's the 11th Espada or maybe the 0th or she's working directly for Aizen, which are largely proven false when she turns out just to be a fairly low rank Arrancar who happens to have an unusual skillset)

unless they are Ishida* or above on the power scale. Then we are a mildly annoying foe with a few annoying tricks. The trauma beam would maybe be useful but given how bleach works I would be surprised if a big enough power level didn't let someone snap out of it by just overwhelming the illusion.
*I don't think there is anyone who's weaker than Ishida without being a lot weaker than Ishida.

Who so happens to be able to make items that can save espada level characters from lethal situations ensuring they live to see another day.
At which point the audience flip their shit when they realize she's Arrancar batman.

I'd prefer arrancar Alfred, but we are a horrormoth so I guess that's not an option now.
Nemo: "We're gonna play a game: Bombardment!"
Shinigame mook: "I'm intrigued, what're the rules?"
Nemo: "DUCK OR DIE!"
An assassin who only goes after bizarre fucked up ghost-things who operate on arcane rules and strange power scales?

Having all veteran means be really strong for a fraccion so I would say yes. Keep in mind that we remain a gimmicky fighter so the rest of Barragan's fraccion might best us in a fight under the right conditions

We're on their level, more or less, but it's important to note that lots of fights are determined more by skill level than gimmicky tricks -- at least, in the fights that were done right.

With our hierro, close quarter and sonido levels, I believe we qualify as a weak fracción. We cannot take or avoid a punch, even if it will not leave a mark.
It just so happens that enemy fracciones won't expect or be able to deal with our projectiles, and we don't mind a few scratches.

Isn't our sonido veteran level since the last vote?

We've got master cero and HSR; we're a glass cannon, except not glass. If we fight like a tank we'll be crushed, but we're not a tank, we're a mage.

I'd like to point that our own resurrection gives us increased dodging ability giving us an Espada tier Sonido in exchange of making us really fragile (one or two good hits and we are dead) so yes we definetively can avoid a punch and retaliate with a nuke or a series of speed debuffs

We're a cannon made out of regenerating glass.
Yes, it's as eldritch as it sounds.
Were a regenerating glass canon who's extremely fast, good at stealth, and specializes in making items good enough that main characters will find them useful.

Yes, but as Xykon once said, in a battle there is an amount of force that overwhelms any tactic. This is bleach, so it applies double so. We should maximize our strengths, but that doesn't make us powerful, that makes us effective.
We are not impressing anyone with a reiatsu flare. We might impress them with our cero, if we land the hit on time. But that's okay, I'll take defeated enemies over impressed enemies any day. I'll starve myself of that satisfaction, if it means another day for interactions and introspections.
Wait, are we counting resurrecciones?

If the fight is serious we are going to use it
like we fired our Cero and we are still in shit, or Cirucci ordered us to fight and win serious.

Our Resurreccion does not make us fragile. Nemo retains her ability to use Hierro and in fact general durability is boosted due to the increase in spiritual pressure. The only absolute downside to our Resurreccion is that it makes us unable to parry.

Not to mention the i-frames we get while using Master level Sonido. Or the extra shadow healing. Horrormoth is actually pretty hard to put down.
the fact Nemo doesn't appear to have internal organs whilst in Resurreccion helps too.
