Oi, remind me to be slightly more clear on matters from now on heh.
All the (New) Marked captains are indeed Non-Canon. Bit of info on them is as follows.
Shihouin Kenpachi - The current holder of the 'Kenpachi' title, supposedly granted to the strongest Shinigami. He has kept the name of his former noble house (Shihouin also being the house of Yourichi).
Somewhat thin, black haired, bit of a neat freak. He's known to be obsessive in his paperwork, and rarely fights since achieving his captain rank.
Guy Eikishi - Currently the youngest of the Soul Society captains, appearing to be approximately 17. He acts his age, being considered very annoying by most, with a tendancy to jump on anything 'exciting.'
Young, small framed (Barely 5'0"), athletic with blue dyed hair hanging to his shoulders, meticulously styled. Weilds an electricity based Zanpaktou.
Alliston Vega - A hulking brute of a man. Easily a head taller than his massive lieutenant. He is generally disliked by most, keeping his position as Captain by force. Since his promotion he has fought two challenges against Ban-Kai capable opponents, killing both.
He is bald, nearly Eight and a half feet tall, usually keeping a poorly trimmed black goatee. He has a pure combat style Zanpaktou.
Alright, now that things have been cleared up. I've got three concepts and two mostly finished charachters. Flesh is going to be out for a week or so and I hope to be ready to start not long after he gets back.
That leaves Dystmesis, Avalon and Albedo for charachter concepts. Feel free to keep asking questions (Knows the Captain list probably didn't help Avalon with his selection process) Heh.

I find it hard to believe that the current Kenpachi is that by the way you described him. Alliston Vega is the most likely of the captains to have that role.
BTW, I take it Alliston Vega is more of a Spaniard going by his name.
I'll be going for a melee specialist who's more of a berserker and weapons fanatic in the 3rd seat of 7th division since there seems to be more melee worthy people there than in the 11th.
His zanpakuto would be something of an oddity in Soul Society in that it doesn't have a fixed form in its shikai but rather it changes into a different weapon depending on the effect it will have.
Would that be fine?

Admittedly Avalon, that is kind of the point with the current Kenpachi. Heh.
That said, 7th or 11th are your best choice for pure fighting divisions at the moment. While the captain in the 11th doesn't seem to suit the division, the rest of the troops do keep towards the usual rough and tumble. In addition, I'm opening up the space of Vice Captain for the 11th division, if any of the PC's wish to have taken it.
As for your Shikai... the concept is somewhat out of style with Bleach, but it could be argued that we just haven't seen it yet. For now I'll go with 'sure that works'. What kind of weapons/effects did you have in mind?

We have, kinda - Aaroneiro (Vincent Tempes said:
the shapeshifting Arancar
One of the things I personally like about Bleach is that pretty much any concept fits. Unarmed fighters? Check - Yoruichi. Brute force fighters? Check - Zaraki. Finesse fighters? Check - Byakuya. Elemental fighters? Check - Yamamoto-Genryusai, Hitsugaya, many others. Speed fighters? Check - Ichigo. Summoners? Check - many Bankais; also, Bount. Archers? Check - Uryuu.
And so on.
Well since the 2nd seat of 11th division is available, I think I'll apply for that.
For the weapon forms I was planning on letting it take the form of a lance, a spear, a flammenschwert sword, a greathammer, as well as perhaps 2 special moves.
The lance would be for charging ang overrunning opponents, the spear would have reach and the penetrating extra, the flammenschwert sword would have either autofire or secondary effect, the greathammer would deal knockback aside from the damage.
The 2 special moves would be the Counter Helix amd the Rain of Blades.
Counter Helix is a defensive move that allows him to react instantly to any physical attack by spinning in place and damaging everyone nearby.
Rain of Blades has him impale his zanpakuto into the ground and wait as the blade rises to the sky before splitting apart and sending a rain of thousands of blades in a cylinder below that damages and impales anyone beneath it except him.

Like it all for the most part. ^_^
The only one I am sort of 'meh' with is the lance (Mostly due to headaches whenever I consider the use of a lance on foot.) That said, the concept works as far as I am concerned, the special moves I have no trouble with. Feel free to start jotting down numbers as it looks good!

That works. *Nods a little* If you want to go with the lance, feel free, its really more of a head scratching "huh?" Objection than anything serious heh.
Either or.

Zurai - Just looked at your Shikai (Was checking the thread for new posts, and thankfully now I don't have to do a meaningless bump! *L*)
Anyways, I'm unsure what you're hoping to gain out of your Boost ability. If you're only applying it to your zanpaktou combat array, then the point for point bonus is actually LOOSING you points.
Here's the problem : Normall, boost is used to boost yours AND others powers (You pick 'strength' or 'blast', or some other ability/skill/power), but it still can't raise them beyond their caps. IT's mostly useful for if you (and/or allies) have un-capped powers, so that you can 'boost' them up to the caps. It can also be used to add special abilities that don't affect caps (Such as Impervious to protection, or Penetrating on strike, etc), but for 30, I think you'd actually be better off just buying those powers straight out as the 'enhanced combat ability'. If you were to apply all of those powers straight to your strike & protection you'd be getting all 30 points, PLUS the 1 extra point you had to pay on the boost.
Alternately, you could take the 'personal' flaw (Since the specifics of your boost targeting your zanpaktou array means you could only use it on yourself anyways), reducing the cost to 1/2, meaning you'd pay 16 points for 30 (15 + 1 for PF).
Everyone else - How's them characters coming? We saw a lot of initial interest in this, but seems nobody wants to post a character.
