Description
Warm up sketch!So, this is Jo, as you can probably tell.... and this is what she will look like if she ever breaks her contract with Trickster, or if Trickster is forced to leave her. Jo loses her shinigami abilities, her hollow, and her humanity, and is forced into this form. She is sent back to the world of the living and becomes a forest guardian, as per the terms of her contract.
Jo's form consists of land mammals important to native american peoples: rabbit feet, bison tail, mountain lion body, bear paws, elk's 'mane', deer antlers, fox ears, boar tusks, and a coyote's head. (as trickster herself is technically a coyote)
Those who carry out her punishment hope that the solitude will drive her mad.
As some of you know, not all the zanpakuto spirits are just that... some have a secret (like Trickster) But you'll find that out soon enough!
EDIT: COLOOOOR!
