Finally, another blade I have come up with. This will be the first one I have created that revolves around fire/magma. XD
Name: Hebi Enkou ('Flame Serpent')
Release Command: Flare up (Moeagaru)
Bankai: Maguma Orochi ('Magma Hydra')
Regular Appearance: The blade is a katana with a golden guard that resembles a flame and a red tsuba, with orange parts in between the red. The blade is silver, but has a flame-like shape etched down the length of the blade.
Shikai Special Ability: When the Release Command is uttered, the blade reforms and turns into a serpent composed entirely of flames, which is controlled from the tsuba of the former katana, which still retains the same colors as before the Shikai release. The serpent can extend and retract, depending on the user's command. The flames that it puts out heat up to around 800-1000 degrees Celsius. The serpent is completely composed of flames and spiritual energy; in other words, it is fully intangible, but will weaken as the user's will and spirit energy weaken. The serpent can extend no further than 500 metres.
Kaen Houshaki: ('Flame Thrower') The serpent can throw out flames further than the extensions of its flame-covered body. In a sense, it is spitting flames at the opponent, which are even hotter than the original flames of its body. This can extend about 100-200 metres from the serpent's length and can pivot in change direction, however, changing direction is slow and inefficient, likely allowing the opponent to escape during that period of time.
Naien: ('Inner flame') A passive ability granted to the user of the blade. This grants them the Spirit of Flame, which affects their reiatsu giving it a wild, fiery feel; in fact, it changes the user's reiatsu completely, so it is more powerful than what it ever could have become without the Spirit of Flame. The other benefit of this attack is, every time the Flame Serpent strikes an opponent and deals them damage or an injury, the user's speed is doubled and the bonus lasts for 20 seconds; the actual appearance of this ability is flames issuing from their feet, propelling them much faster than usual, but not affecting their flash-step whatsoever.
Shikai Appearance: The blade disappears, excluding the tsuba, in order to form a serpent of flames, which appears to be about 20 metres long and can be controlled by user. The flames are a red/orange colour, with blueish parts right on the tips of the flames.
Bankai Special Ability: The Serpent disappears, reforming itself, and turns into a Hydra, composed entirely of flames and molten rock and has three heads, each of which can either spit flames, or magma. This 'Magma Hydra' can spit chunks of magma at the opponent, which is molten rock, heating things up to about 10,000 degrees Celsius. The user can control this Hydra by telekinesis. The Hydra is entirely a Zanpakuto, having its own spirit energy and can combine itself with the user at opportune moments. However, if the Hydra strays too far from the user (which is about 1 km), it will disappear and Bankai will not be able to be used for about an hour, or two. There are a variety of attacks that can be used with this Bankai and require a creative mind. The major abilities are as listed:
Kazan: ('Volcano') A powerful attack, with a massive area of effect. The Hydra draws magma up through the ground, by burrowing down and using the heat from its own magma to draw the rest to it, then it creates a depression and a crater, finally forming a volcano in the area. The Hydra can determine when the volcano will erupt and this will cause mass flows of lava, large amounts of smoke and ash, as well as exceptionally hot mud. All of these will likely affect the opponent, i.e, the smoke will obscure the whole area, while the ash will cover much of it; the lava is as hot as magma, but cools down from the cooler air around it and the mud will also cover much of the area mixing in with the ash. Essentially, this ability changes the whole environment around them.
Henkei: ('Metamorphosis') When the user is in Bankai mode, they can say 'Metamorphose, Maguma Orochi!' and they will become one with the Hydra. To explain better, the user and the Hydra meld into the form of one being for their Bankai, however, because the user is a part of the Bankai itself, it takes a lot of spirit energy to maintain, therefore, it is not an efficient ability to use, unless the user plans to cause destruction for a short period of time, then force their Zanpakuto back into Shikai form.
Enkou Yari: ('Flame Sword') The user can take flames from the Hydra and shape them into a sword of flame. In fact, if they are skilled enough, they can even create two blades of flame. These swords last only as long as the Bankai is active.
Bankai Appearance: The Serpent disappears from sight, completely, and reforms itself into a three-headed legendary Hydra, which is made from flames and molten rock. The beast is about 3-4 metres high and it stretches out around 5 metres from head (s) to the tip of its tail.

Good to see a well detailed zanpakuto again. Generally I dislike elemental blades because they're usually quite one dimensional, but yours is an exception XD

^ Thanks, guys. I try my best to create Zanpakuto that are thought out properly and aren't stereotypical, or overpowered. XD
