Soul reapers age half as fast as normal and Show reduced visible signs of aging. Soul reperes can also reroll one failed death saving throw per day and can make a DC 20 Constitution check to make a failed death saving throw a pass, once per long rest. However will instantly die if decapitated.

Zanpakuto

The Zanpakuto are unique weapons with two extra forms and are attuned to the wielder. On first becoming a Soul Reaper, a weapon can be attuned as a Zanpakuto although they are usually or always swords. Your Zanpakuto’s Hilt can perform Konso which allows a spirit to pass on to an afterlife depending on their Sinful or Virtuous acts during life.

To unlock the first release or Shikai, you must learn your Zanpakuto's name, to do so you must must be able to communicate and harmonize with their Zanpakuto effectively, which requires being able to speak to the spirit (incarnation of your inner spirit) within its world. You must also learn and memorize the Kaigo which is the unique phrases needed to release the Shikai. The commands vary between users and range from a simple imperative verb to a short poem. They often relate to the Zanpakutō's signature ability or hint at the nature of its spirit.

To do this you must use 10 SP to do so. Can make a DC 12 Wisdom check to Gain 1d10+2 SP form the spirit. The Zanpakuto's new form and ability is designed based on the DM and players Ideas and with balancing in mind. Example: (Becomes a large clawed black that can extend into a bladed whip)

To unlock the second release or Bankai, one must be able to materialize and subjugate their Zanpakuto spirit. Materialization means the opposite of getting dragged into the Zanpakuto's inner world: the wielder needs to summon the Zanpakuto's spirit into the physical world. It usually takes 10 years or more to achieve, plus the experience needed to master it. Despite the Zanpakuto spirit being subjugated for their Shinigami to learn Bankai, the Zanpakuto also becomes stronger and learns Bankai at precisely the moment their Shinigami learns it. Even though Bankai is the final stage of a Zanpakuto, it does not mean the Shinigami's growth ends there. A Bankai, especially one recently obtained, can evolve even further as its Shinigami gets stronger.

To do this you must use 30 SP to do so. Can make a DC 18 Wisdom check to Gain 1d20+2 SP form the spirit. +4 to hit.The Zanpakuto's new form and a highly powerful but a limited or not very mobile ability is designed based on the DM and players Ideas and with balancing in mind. Example: (Becomes a massive skeletal, snake like creature created from enlarged blade sections that can resemble when sliced apart, with the handle at the end).
