Fullbringer

Character

Fullbringers are living humans, attuned to spirits, who possess the inborn power of Fullbring and can reach into the souls held inside every scrap of physical matter. Their gift stems from Hollow energy inherited from a mother who once survived a Hollow attack, which tilts their abilities closer to a Hollow's than to a Shinigami's.

Overview

Fullbringers are living humans attuned to the spirit world, set apart by the inborn talent that gives them their name. Like other spiritually sensitive people they can feel the energy of Hollows, Shinigami, and one another, but the root of their power is darker. Each was born to a parent who lived through a Hollow attack, and the residue of that Hollow lingered inside the mother's body until it passed to the child at birth. For that reason their abilities echo a Hollow's nature far more than a Soul Reaper's.

Mechanics

The heart of the power is the pull a Fullbringer exerts on the soul held within an object, since everything, from a lamppost to a drink, carries some small soul of its own. By tugging on it they can move a thing or reshape its qualities, coaxing water to bear their weight or a beverage to rise into their mouth. Because they act through their physical bodies rather than a separate spirit form, they must build genuine stamina to sustain the strain. Mastery shows itself in flashes of green light called Bringer Light that accompany bursts of high-speed movement, and in object affinity, whereby deep fondness or pride toward a particular item lets a Fullbringer draw out its soul, fuse it with their own, and transform it into a personalized weapon. A Fullbring matures in stages toward a final form whose completion can rupture violently, so another Fullbringer often oversees the process, while exposure to the air of Hueco Mundo can hasten that growth.

Notable Users

The clearest example is the mercenary band Xcution, led by Kugo Ginjo and rounded out by members such as Riruka Dokugamine, Yukio, Giriko, and Jackie Tristan, with Moe Shishigawara hanging around its fringes. Ichigo's friend Yasutora Sado carries the power as well, and a Fullbringer's talents can even be handed off to a Substitute Shinigami, or merged with borrowed Soul Reaper power to blend the two.
