Van Satonaka/Former Abilities

Zanpakutō (Former)
Tsuyakeshi Hanabira (花びらつや消し,Frosted Petal) is Van's Zanpakuto it takes the form of a regular katana with a green hilt and a spiked-sphere shaped guard. Van no longer has this zanpakuto due to his transformation




 * Shikai: Van's Zanpakuto is released with the command "Wreak Havoc". When releasing, thorns surround the katana then burts as it takes the form of a glittering long katanaGodoftheSky.jpg
 * Shikai Special Ability: Tsuyakeshi Hanabira grants Van the ability to create crystals for attack and defense purposes. When using a technique he must say "Bloom" before each use. This can be used to crystalize anything with a mass (water, air, fire, etc.) but, it is useless against energy based attacks as they have no mass to begin with. He can coat himself in these crystals to improve his defense or bolster his physical attacks. Thus his zanpakuto is of the yet unheard of crytal type.
 * Crystal Creations: Not a technique but, Van can form his crystals into many shapes to aid him in battle such as swords, shoelds, fists, animals, etc.


 * Kesshō Keimusho (Crystal Prison): Van encases a target in a crystal shell immobolizing them. It is highly durable to most attacks from the outside. Able to reflect away elemental attacks due to the surface being able to spread the damage evenly throughout the structure.
 * Kesshō Yaei-chi (Crystal Camp): Van creates a dome made out of his crystal that surrounds the area to trap the enemy. It is able to fix itself after being damaged although this process drains a lot of energy out of him.
 * Kesshō Tōdai (Crystal Beacon): Van can create clones that can use the same techniques as him. The flaw is that they can be easily defeated by kido spells.
 * Guren211.jpgō Tōken (Crystal Point): Van creates a multitude of knives made of crystal in the air. Once broken by the enemy's attack or Van's choosing the shards are used to rain down on the enemy either to impale or rip them to shreds.
 * Kesshō Dangan (Crystal Fang): Van creates a spiked sphere around him and rotates it at high speed. Used to travel long distances quickly or to ram into opponents to cut them to pieces.
 * Kesshō Yūdaina Shinrin (Crystal Majestic Forest): Van sticks his zanpakuto into the ground and creates a forest of crystal that continues to grow until it reaches his intended target. Once struck the enemy will be encased in a tower of crystal that slowly drains their energy and pours it out into the air.
 * Kesshō Barentain (Crystal Valentine): Van condenses the air around him creating a dragon that can be used to grab or crush the enemy. The major advantage to this ability is that it can be used to create multiple dragons since there is always a constant flow of air.
 * Kesshō Barentain Hidora-ban (Crystal Valentine -Hydra Edition): Van creates a three headed dragon that can be used to battle a stronger opponents. These heads can act on their own accord to attack Van's foes even if he is knocked out.Guren204.jpg





Hollowfication
Van's hollow came to him by his negative feelings of Shade's betrayal manifesting into a darker presence. Van has proven to be adept at using his new hollow abilities. It has been commented on by Kenji Hiroshi that his strength increases greatly when he dons his mask.

Van's mask is long with two long black stripes going down the sides. The mask has two rows of teeth that emphasize the canines.



Power Augmentation: After putting on his mask Van has increased control over his crystalizing abilities. He is shown to be able to form large spears out of the oxygen by crystalizing the mass. He is also able to send the crystals from anywhere on his body as projectiles.

High-Speed Regeneration: Like some Gillian-level Menos Hollows, this form shows the ability to instantly regenerate any wound and even a missing limb

Enhanced Vision: He is able to see far distances away and is capable of aiming at a moving target from across the battlefield with no problem.

Enhanced Spiritual Energy: Even when only partially transformed, the Hollow's spiritual energy is greatly increased enough to be felt in area far away from the battlefield.

Cero: His cero is a light teal color capable of being fired from either hand or his mouth. He is also able to use variations of this move.
 * Cero Doble: Van is able to swallow his opponent's Cero and returning it back to the user along with his own Cero, making it twice as powerful as the original.
 * Gran Rey Cero :


 * Enhanced Strength: Van is able to break through trees and restrain opponents with his bare-hands.


 * Enhanced Speed: While in this state, his speed also increases greatly.


 * Extra Appendages: While wearing his mask he grows two extra arms for combat
