Name: Roarek Macullen
Alias: The Scot
Age: 713 yrs. Appears 34 yrs.
Gender: Male
Faction: Shinigami (Soul Reaper)
Rank: Division 11, Captain
Description:
Roarek stands a mighty 6 foot -2 inches tall, decidedly above average height for the men of his time. His possibly imposing stature is complimented by his wide shoulders and muscled physique which cause our lovely Scotsman to weigh in at an impressive 206 pounds. His hair, both facial and otherwise are some of his favorite features and as such is almost always clean and well kept, its light brown color is complimented by the rare blond streak.
Roarek’s dress almost always consists of a kilt of some nature, be it a great kilt (Feileadh Mor) or a “little kilt” (Phillabeg). Such kilts vary in color but are typically of earthy tones unless he feels as though he wants to be ‘fancy.’ Roarek’s shihakushou and haori, which is typical of his position as captain, his dress is modified in such a manner that it is all made from loosely woven linen, and both the black shihakushoi and white haori only cover his upper body, this is due to most of the material below his waist to have been removed. His haori is also modified so that his division’s emblem is visible both on the front right of his haori, over his chest, and the back right of his haori, on the back of his shoulder, this is so that his kilt will not cover the emblem, however due to Roarek’s nature, he can rarely be found shirtless depending on the weather. Upon his wrists he’ll occasionally wear bracers to tie down the excess cloth of the sleeves of his black shihakushou. Other accessories on Roarek’s person include wrist and neck torcs, most importantly however is the flag of Scotland, the Saltire which he carries with him almost at all times, placed upon a very decorated flag pole which he can conveniently secure upon his back.
Personality:
Roarek is a loud one, he's everything you can think of when you picture a stereotypical Scot, he's belligerent, prideful, stern, a drunkard and a braggart. However, his behavior belies his true self. For Roarek has a sense of seriousness about him when he needs to be and one may find him quite cunning and brave when the time is right. Roarek though brave, strong and eager to fight, he is inherently lazy when it comes to doing tasks he finds dull, boring and otherwise distasteful and will often procrastinate, or push these responsibilities off onto his lower officers. He is also known for being a drunkard, a womanizer, and a prankster, and is known for talking to his sword on many occasions.
Family:
None that he knows of.
History:
Roarek Macullen was born Anno Domini 1280 of the month of March. He was born in a time of strife and nationalism for Scotland. Entering life as a common man he learned early on how to fight and survive in a land where nobles couldn’t be trusted and where the mighty preyed upon the weak. As he grew into manhood he was quickly swept up in the national pride and fever after hearing the news of the English invasion of his homeland, and of his people rising up against those who would conquer them. So it was no surprise to anyone when Roarek fell in with the forces of Moray and Wallace. The rest of his life was as simple as it was bloody and for 18 years it continued to be.
Roarek though already savvy with sword at his age quickly learned that, that alone was not enough, on the battlefield was where Roarek learned his bloody trade, learning from both friends and enemies alike. For eighteen years he fought in the Scottish war of Independence until near the closing of the war at the battle of Bannockburn. It was in this battle that Roarek took an arrow to knee, and while wounded continued to fight until he was eventually speared through the back after suffering heavily from blood loss. Upon death he wondered the whole of Scotland for several years up until his soul burial, what he did during this time is known only to him.
In the Soul Society Roarek’s skill was quickly noticed and he was quickly brought under the fold of the Soul Reapers in Scotland and taught how to use his soul energy and wield his new weapons. Many years of training and learning eventually brought Roarek great power so much so that he was able to obtain the position of Captain of Division Eleven. Which he seized through a duel with the previous commander, however due to the complication of such an event he was “reassigned” to another capital within the soul Society known as the Seireitei, this caused his eventual Transfer and assignment to the Division Eleven Seat within the Seireitei. Though when Roarek all he found was in taters and in the process of rebuilding, and in this confusion he finds himself in control of an almost empty division, in a tattered fortress. Roarek's past up until this point remains very general and vague, as it would seem the Captain is unwilling to go into details.

Soul Weapon: Zanpaktou(Soul Slayer)
Name: Dannarra Artan (Stubborn Stone)
Sealed Appearance: Roarek’s sealed blade looks like nothing more than a slightly ornate lowlander sword. A massive sword for any man, this sword stands a good 5 feet 8 inches tall, with the blade alone being 4 feet, 4 inches long. The weapon is decorated up and down the blade with Celtic markings as well as having white, torn cloth wrapped around part of the unsharpened blade, after the parrying hooks, and before the cross guard.
Zanpaktou Spirit: Dannarra Artan: Busty Scottish Beauty
Appearance: Dannarra is, at least to Roarek, the symbolic representation of the pride, power, and beauty of Scotland as such her form comes to the shock of none. She appears to Roarek as a tall, beautiful woman. Her figure quite womanly and quite the contrary to how she behaves, her hair a brunette with teasing hints of red, long yet with volume. Dannarra’s skin is kissed with the lightest of tans. She almost appears to be a dream of a woman, this not helped by the fact that she always carries a rather large mug of the finest ale with her at all times, it never leaving her left hand.
Such a sight would be quite inviting if of course it only ended there but this woman is one with Scotland, her dress is that of a mans, her body wrapped in leather and metal armor, her skin covered in woad paint, her hair rough and unkempt. Upon her back she holds Roarek’s blade which she can easily heft with a single hand. Her personality is that of a rough crude and strong but youthful and inherently nice woman.
Inner World: Roarek’s inner world is a land covered in mist, rolling hills, sparse forest, with a crumbling castle nestled securely near a mountain.
Shikai:
Release Phrase:
"Cleave, Dannarra!"
Shikai Appearance:On Roarek’s call, Dannarra transforms into an odd, large weapon, on one side a bearded axe, the other a hefty hammer head. The weapon itself is decorated quite ornately in Celtic symbols. On either side of the weapon where the head meets the handle are cut outs where large palm sized runes can be put and locked into place. Upon Dannarra’s transformation Roarek’s dress changes to resemble the armor he worn back when he was alive as well as granting him multiple runes along his belt, and a heater shield which is able to aid in the deflection of attacks.
Attacks:
Defending Art – Due to Roarek's many years of war, he has learned the important and life saving art of blocking! While in Shikai, affinity is increased by 20 only in the circumstance of blocking an attack, this bonus cannot be used for any offensive attacks.
Soul Project – Both the weapon and shield are able to able to project the physical force of their blows up to 60 ft., amplifying the effect the further the distance.
Sweep the Leg! – Due to Roarek’s many years of life spent on the battlefield when he was amongst the living, he has learned the intricacies of combat. As a result, Roarek if allowed the chance can inflict debilitating wounds upon his target. -5 to Weapon Skill and Attack per arm wounded, -10 to Speed per leg wounded, -10 to Rieatsu when the head is wounded, and lastly if the body is wounded the blow is considered to be a crippling shot to the groin, causing no damage but stuns the opponent for one post.
Note: Wounds and negatives sustained last until they are healed or repaired.
Runic Might – At any time Roarek is able to change the two Runic symbols of his “hax” allowing the weapon to grant him with stat increases based upon whatever runes are placed within the weapon. The weapon can only equip two runes at a time and each rune increases an individual stat by 20 points.
Tyr Rune- Increases Affinity
Odal Rune- Increases Agility
Uruz Rune- Increases Power
Hagalaz Rune- Increases Reiryoku
Bankai:
Release Phrase:
"Charge, Dannara Artan!."
Bankai Appearance: Appearance:When called upon Dannara will take the form of a beastly metal female boar made of countless European styled, medieval, weapons of different types and sizes. The Boar itself is the size of a modern military Humvee and its eyes and mouth spew the hellish flame of war. Though what one must truly fear is not the front of the Boar but the rear, for if any were unfortunate to be caught behind the beast, they will find themselves inhaling the deadly miasma of war
Attacks:
Flames of War – The War Boar can shoot a wall of hellish flame from its mouth and or eyes up to 40ft.
Whiff of Justice – The Boar ejects a horrendous deadly miasmic plague from its rear, causing anything caught within the slightly denser than air substance to be poisoned and decay. All forms of life within this substance will physically decay. Players caught within the poison will suffer a 2 point loss of Agility, Affinity, and, Power per post whilst still caught within the miasma, as well as suffer from poison damage in the form of a very slow and painful decay. 5 points of damage per post whilst in the miasmic cloud which stacks by an additional 5 points per exposure per post to a maximum of 30 points of decay damage. This damage is suffered until the poison is cured or wears off. Roarek is not affected by Whiff of Justice or any relating attacks which come from his Bankai. The miasmic cloud stays on the field for 5 of Roarek’s posts and expands outward from the boar increasing its area for every 2 of Roarek’s posts, an example being 40ft to 60ft to 80ft. The attack has a cooldown of 2 posts,, this cool down does not stack with “Roasting Boar Comet.”
Note: The person or persons affected by this attacks poison are poisoned for either 24 hours, or until the poison is cured/removed.
Ungodly sneeze – With a mighty roar or sneeze the Boar is able to launch weapons from its body at an opponent in almost any direction from its body. The boar may not be able to launch more weapons then it currently possesses and if it launches all of them it can only be done so in either one direction or as a spherical explosion. In the event of the later, this attack will have a cooldown of one post.
Note: Weapons launched over time return to boar by flying back at the boar but only after they hit or miss their intended target(s). The boar is also able to retrieve them manually by moving over them.
Roasting Boar Comet – The Boar consumes itself in hellish flame and proceeds to propel itself forward through the use of its deadly miasma, causing the boar to not only project itself, itself being a heap of spinning sharp metal that’s on fire, but it is also a heap of super-heated spinning sharp metal that is being followed by a deadly decaying plague. Players suffer the same effects of “Whiff of Justice” if caught within the path of the boar as it performs this attack.
Whirling Dervish - On command Roarek orders Dannarra to shield him inside a sphere of spinning whirling weapons to aid him in deflecting all manner of ranged attacks, no matter the attack type. Roarek gains a +20 to Affinity when being attacked with a ranged attack. This bonus cannot be used offensively. Upon the activation of this ability Roarek will not be able to use the attacks "Ride able Arsenal," as well as attack outside of the sphere of shielding spinning weapons.
Passive Abilities:
Soul Sync – Roarek shares a sacred bond with his Bankai allowing it to grow and progressing along with him. Roarek and his Battle Boar share stats and bonuses.
Ride able Arsenal – Due to the nature of the beast and the bond Roarek has with his Zanpaktou, and his time training for his Final Release, Roarek is able to ride the Boar comprised of spinning sharp pieces of metal without being harmed.
Unending Arsenal – The beast being comprised of nothing but an unending arsenal of weapons can thus be used as an arsenal, allowing Roarek to retrieve whatever manner of medieval weapon he wishes from it.
Piper’s call –Upon activation of Bankai, all persons within earshot hear bagpipes, originating from an omnipresent location and is omnidirectional in nature. This passive ability lasts until the Bankai is dismissed.
