Amara's fraccionesFirst Fraccion Name: Dolce d'Agnolo di Francesco.
Age: He doesn't remember his real age, but appears to be around 25, physically.
Height: 6'0
Weight: 170 lbs.
Appearance:
Dolce is a rather tall, handsome man, who although his frame is not as "pronounced" as Amargo's, he's just as powerful and well-defined. He has creamy skin, vivid, cobalt eyes and royal-blue hair arranged in soft spikes with some strands jutting forward across his forehead. His uniform is as it appears in the picture, with a breezy, silk shirt exposing his chest and abdomen to a bit above his navel. He wears dress pants that hang low on his narrow hips, the outfit in the according Arrancar colors, of course.
Dulce has an eyepatch on his left eye, for the reason that his left eye is pitch-black with a golden iris, much like a hollow's. It's a feature he very much wishes to conceal for unknown reasons. His hollow remnant traces around the eye patch, having cut the cloth to fit it perfectly. His hollow hole diagonally across to the right from his navel, and his tattoo is clearly marked on his abdomen. Dulce has a silver chain that goes around his neck, with a small black rose pendant hanging off of it. He also sports a katana strapped to his right hip.
Personality:
Dolce is a very charming and humorous individual, with a kind heart and open mind. He usually seems to be rather calm and smiling, much the opposite of his brother, but he can get rather terrifying and lethal depending on the situation. His loyalty to "Lady" Amara is eternal and has no limit, although it can be confused sometimes with love when his antics take place in front other bystanders. Cunning and witty, sly, and a smooth talker for whichever occasion, Dolce has no problems with getting information from people. He secretly enjoys toying with his enemies to get them irritated. He is a man of high morals, and quite chivalrous. Being more of Italian than Spanish descent, when he speaks, which is quite frequent, a soft accent is detected in his words and nitpicks on how to pronounce his name properly. Since Amara is quite proficient in Spanish, this brings his adoration for his "Lady" one level higher (Even if his love is already high enough).
Likes: Reading novels of any kind, watching television, engaging in interesting conversation, outings in the human world, training, pestering Amargo, spending time with Amara, Italian Soda, pasta of any kind, Wine, etc.
Dislikes: People with no humor, jealousy, sore losers, cursing, drama, Amara getting drunk or being in danger, Getting reprimanded by her for whatever reason, enemies that are not entertaining or amusing, showing weakness, making fun of his name/not pronouncing it correctly, Amargo's usual bad temper/attitude.
Biography (for both): What can be stated simply and vaguely is that he is brothers with Amargo, and although they had different mothers, they shared the same father who was popularly known as Don Francesco. At the time that they were born, which was about a year's or so difference, Dolce's mother died during birth due to heavy complications, and Amargo's abandoned him soon after birth, not releasing statements as to why. Their father, although quite the womanizer in his day, decided to look after and care for both his sons until the end of their days. Don Francesco's life after Amargo and Dolce's death is unknown. Due to their physical and personality differences, it is quite common for neither young men to be recognized as siblings.
Special abilities: Very fast, can hear sounds that the average person can't hear, and a fast healer when wounded. Pain is dulled with his first release, and his senses become sharper and more enhanced.
Zanpakuto:Name: Celesse.
Release command: "Awaken, Celesse!"
Physical change: Color of clothes turn entirely white with gleaming silver lines in differing patterns streaked across his skin, his eyes turn a burning silver while his hair shifts to pitch black.
- Zanpakuto's sealed state is in the form of the pendant Dolce wears. When released, it transforms into a ivory-white flute. Very elegant looking with golden features.
First phase:
Dolce will play a soft, entrancing melody, each musical note taking effect on the opponent's body. The opponent is drawn into a strong, paralyzed state, as they are soon taken into a dream. They will relive a happy memory; if there is not one, then Celesse will make one up for them. The moments the opponent is left immobile, Dolce will be absorbing their reiatsu without them noticing or feeling anything. The moment a single note from the flute penetrates, or enters the enemy's body, a spirit chain is connected between the two. The effects wear off after the song ends.
Second phase: "Death's Dirge"
Dolce will play a sad, melancholic melody. It brings the opponent into the same trance. Very hard to break from once the songs begins. The opponent will once again be drawn into the "dream world", and find themselves alone in a calm scenery. Slowly, it will begin to contort into a nightmare. A young beautiful maiden will appear out of nowhere, and walk towards the opponent. She will begin to kill them in gruesome manners, not just in one way. There is no physical pain, but it feels dreadfully real. After the song ends, the highest probability is that the opponent will undergo a severe state of shock. Dolce takes this to his advantage, and will attempt to end their life using his katana. If successful, he pulls out a black rose, and lays it on top of the dead body as a sort of signature.
Quick note: Dolce's zanpakuto causes no physical harm. It is all mental damage. Also, it is quite possible to break from the "spell" he casts on the person while performing the songs, it's percentage of succeeding varies with the rank the opponent has.
Second Fraccion Name: Amargo de Sandoval y Francesco.
Age: Cannot remember, but appears to be around 23.
Height: 6'2''
Weight: 180-ish lbs. of muscle.
Appearance: Amargo is a towering young man consisting of a very strong, chiseled build yet still lithe in its own way. He posesses sharp, angular features, pronouncing his masculinity in his firm jaw, smoldering chocolate-brown eyes, and soft cheek bones. Although he's usually seen scowling or frowning, his
face is still ridiculously handsome much like his older brother's. His skin's a lightly-tanned color, his hair composed of messy, golden-coral locks styled wildly in soft spikes. On his left ear lobe he sports a small, silver hoop earring where - if you looked closely (without getting your head lopped off) - a printed "5" is designed on the metal.
Amargo's clothes consist exactly of what is seen in his picture. A black dress shirt buttoned half-way, with a white, black-trimmed jacket worn over it with the sleeves pulled up messily. His pants are white with black trim, matching the jacket nicely, and wears black, leather shoes. His hollow hole is located on his chest, where is heart would be. The tattoo is printed on his back, taking up most of the skin's space. Note: He asked it to be exaggeratedly done this way. Amargo's hollow-bone fragments are two separate pieces found on his left eyebrow. They are two rather-thin slits on the outer corner of his eyebrow, two centimeters worth of distance from one another.
Personality: Regardless of his at times ruthless and cruel nature, Amargo is a very loyal subject under Amara, which can be noted and seen as a dedication to protect and serve under her with no fear of whatever consequence may be paid in the future if it means her safety and well-being is guaranteed. Quite the polar opposite of his older brother Dolce, he prefers to stray away from communicating with women in general. Being of a sturdy, firm attitude, he usually finds himself at a loss for words around women, and as such, wishes to avoid any prolonged conversation with any, except for Amara. He is very protective, perhaps too much, of the Fifth Espada, skeptical of any who interact with her who are others beside his brother. Quite the cynical one, he is constantly berated by Amara and Dolce to "lighten up" and look happy.
Amargo does take joy in things, only he feels it, not expresses it outwardly -- Be it in a smile or in words. Violent when he engages in battle, he harnesses quite a temper that can be deemed uncontrollable when he becomes to caught up in the adrenaline rush of it. His more "docile" and sensitive nature is a rare ocurrence only been witnessed by his brother and Amara. One very fond memory for the two, much to Amargo's dismay, was when he blushed for the first time. That was a few years back and yet never ceases to be repeated by the Fifth Espada herself. Regardless of his more dark, easily-aggravated ways, Amargo's love and adoration for Amara is equally matched to Dolce's. This is a reason why the two share a sort of rivalry amongst themselves. Amargo is primarily more of Spanish Descent, and just as Dolce has an accent, he speaks with a light Spanish one. While Dolce's comes off as soft and refined, Amargo's comes off as thick and gruff, Amara carefully noting how he rolls his r's more frequently when upset.
Likes: Chocolates, Sweets, Liquor, Seeing Amara's drunken fits, terrifying lesser Arrancar, Fighting, blood-shed, Arrogance, Reading novels, outings to the human world, going to bars, bar fights, scaring humans, etc.
Dislikes: Shinigami, speaks of "justice" from such soul reapers, apples, coffee, worms (bugs and also enemy-wise), cowardice, Innocence, optimists, etc.
Special Abilities: Amargo's most notable special ability is his strength. Impressive by first impressions of his powerful build, he can easily destroy buildings, pillars, etc., with his bare hands. Surprisingly enough, he is also increidibly fast, having trained himself and with the help of others to build up on that skill that is commonly a draw-back for those who are strength-prominent. However, his skills in controlling reiatsu-flow is a bit iffy, mostly because of the unpredictable waves of his flaring temper.
Weapons - "Fuerza": Amargo does not posess a zanpakuto. This indeed baffled Amara the moment she found both him and Dolce out in the Deserts, when Dolce owned one. To make up for not having one, Amara extensively trained Amargo for years with the sword he had which he had, amusingly enough, titled
"Fuerza" (Strength). His excellent proficiency in sword-fighting gained him a mastery of the art, standing his ground just as well as any with a zanpakuto would. Aside from owning Fuerza, he's also evenly-skilled in hand-to-hand combat, his equal match to his sword-fighting.
