Coyote Stark

Hueco Mundo/Karakura Showdown

Learning about a companions death

The first real appearance of Stark is during the meeting between the Espada, Ichimaru Gin, Kaname Tosen and their leader Aizen who had summoned them all. This meeting deals with the sudden appearance of Ichigo, Chad and Uryu who have come to save Orihime. It is in this meeting that we first get a understanding of Starrks personality as he asks everyone to be quiet as he is tired. Stark is next shown sleeping after the death of the 9th Espada. His fraccion procedes to attack him, showing us their sibling-like relationship. Though seeming bothered by the death of Aaroniero, Stark asks Lillynette what she wants him to do, a reaction that his Fraccion is not to happy with. After the defeat of Grimmjow and Nnoitra, Stark was given orders to recapture Orihime.

Stark retaking orihime

Stark makes fools of Kenpachi and Ichigo by instantly recapturing Orihime after just rescuing her from the clutches of Nnorita and his Fraccion Tesla. He proceeded to join others to attempt to sacrifice Karakura Town. Stark ends up going into combat with Shunsui of all captains with Lilinette on the sidelines. None of them are aware that Stark wants to put on a facade while others battle to the death. During a nonchalant skirmish Stark calls Shunsui on his holding back after claiming wanting to engage in actual combat.

He reveals keen observation in pointing out Shunsui can fight with both hands but only using one of two swords. Stark truly wanted to little to no fighting at all. He changes his mind in realizing the Shinigami have talented enough captains to make Harribel get serious.

Starrk and Lillynette

During the start of the battle, Starks's opponent is able to determine that Harribel is the 3rd Espada and that he hopes Stark is number two and Barragan the primera. Stark removes his glove and reveals himself to be the primera, something that does not surprise the 8th division captain in the slightest. The two procede to fight in which Stark is suprised and also annoyed on how Shunsui is able to dodge all but one of his attacks. Stark bares witness to the bankais of Hitsugaya and Soifon, surprised by their power and then wonders if all captains have a bankai of such strength. Wanting to see his opponents bankai, Stark reveals that him and Lillynette are one in the same and the two combine to reveal their Ressurection. Now armed with two guns Stark attacks Shunsui with cero's, though the captain still refuses to release his bankai. Not happy, Stark fires a barrage of cero's at Shunsui. Luckily for the captain, his best friend Ukitake negates the attack and returns it to Starrk. In just a few more moves he is able to determine how Ukitake's shikai works. Right before Stark is able to fire 1000 shots Wonderweiss turns up with a large hollow, which suprises Stark.

Stark finishing off Shunsui

During the suprise visit of Wonderweiss, the young arrancar quicks deals a fatal blow to captain Ukitake by impaling him from behind with his hand. Suddenly before Wonderweiss can do any more damage Shunsui appears behind Wonderweiss and prepares for attack. Just before Shunsui can attack, Stark appears behind him and shoots the captain with a cero from point blank range, sending him pluumeting with his frind towards the buildings below. Stark comments that the arrival of Wonderweiss means Aizen has grown tired. Recently Wonderweiss has freed Harribel, Barragan and the three former captains. Just as all hope seems lost, the Vizards arrive.

Starrk Vs Two Superheroes

After the vizards deal with the gillians that the large hollow releases from its mouth, Stark is confronted by the duo of Love and Rose, who comment that Starrk is strong. Upon removing their masks, Stark comments that should they really be removing their masks. Love says that they are superheroes and that their masks only last for a maximum of 3 minutes.

After the fall of Barragan at the hands of Hachi, Stark comments that he finds it horrible that Aizen did not utter a single word for Barragan, but turning towards Rose and Love, he goes on to say that it is not within their nature to avenge each other. After his comrades death, Stark seems to be unnafected by his fallen comrades demise. Love states, that after someone dies, it becomes a battle of revenge, but Rose seems to think Stark is not the type to look for revenge. Love then states, that what makes Stark so scary, as noone can be that detatched. With his back turned to his opponents, Stark is attacked by Love, who reveals his shikai. Stark quickly retaliates by shooting at Love, only to have his cero's blocked. Being attacked he manages to dodge Love's attack, and appear right behind him. Though he is not so lucky with the second attack, and is knocked to the ground. Lying on the ground, Lilynette asks why he is just lying there, that isn't he going to get revenge. She then calls him pathetic.

Love vs Stark

Stark then again says he is not the type to seek revenge, and that he believes Aizen wont save them. Stark goes on to say that his opponents are strong, and that he just doesen't care anymore. He means that if they keep fighting someone else will die. He then says he wants to go home and sleep, which Lilynette responds to in anger. She says that he is number one and that he should start acting like it. Lilynette goes on to say that Stark has just been acting cool and not even trying, and the reason Aizen made him number one is because he believes in his strength. She says that if he doesen't want to see his friends die, he should fight. Stark agrees. He gets back up, and is again attacked by Love, but blocks the attack. Love asks if Starrk was grieving, and Stark resonds by saying something like that. Love goes on to say he thought hollows have no hearts, which Stark resonds by saying, "Look who's talking, you look like a hollow yourself with that mask". Love then dons his hollow mask, and attacks Stark with shikai's special ability.

Love then takes off his hollow mask, and states that Stark has once again dissapeared. And he wonders were his opponent has went. Shocked, Rose tells Lova to look to the sky. Love to looks up, with shock, and says what the hell is that. It then shows Stark, standing in front, of what looks like a large pack of wolves.

Powers and abilities

A lazy Cero

As he is the Primera Espada in Aizen's army, Stark has powers and skills above that of any other Espada shown thus far, with the possible exception of Yammy. Being the number one Stark has an incredible high spirit power, so high that he forbidden to release it in Las Noches, as such power could lay waste to it. When he was first shown, the only ability he displayed was Sonido, which like flash steps is a high speed movement. In Starrk's case, this movement is incredibly fast. He was able to capture Orihime without Ichigo and Kenpachi noticing him, and take her away before either could hit with their attacks. He can keep up with Ukitake and Shunsui, two of the strongest captains in the series. Stark is also a great swordsman and a tactical fighter. This is shown when after only seeing Ukitake's special ability three times, he was able to figure out the nature of its attack. He can also use the other typical Arrancar abilities such as Cero which he can fire from his body, without taking a battle stance; and garganta which allows him to travel across dimenions.

Ressurection

Los Lobos

To get a clearer understanding of Stark's release form, we must first look at his Zanpakuto, which appears as a regular katana much like most zanpakuto's that have appeared in the series. Both the sheath and the guard of zanpakuto appears as a pewtrid yellow. So far all the other Espada, and the Arrancar, have their ressurection forms sealed in their zanpakuto. Stark is unique though, as his own release form is instead sealed inside his fraccion, Lilynette, though she is infact his other half. As they split once they became Arrancar. This ressurection is known as Los Lobos ("The Wolves"). Its command of release being "Kick About". In this form Starrk wields two decorative guns, which is in fact Lilynette who is still able to communicate. His outfit also changes drastically and he increases in over all strength. Stark's guns are capable of firing Cero's, even able to unleash a barrage and claiming he can shoot 1000 shots at once.

Appearance

In terms of appearance Stark greatly resembles the shinigami he is most like, Shunsui Kyoraku. Stark has wavy and messy, unkenpt shoulder length dark hair. His hollow mask takes the form of a lower jaw line which hangs around his neck, making it appear like a necklace. His hollow hole is stationed just below his mask, and his ranking tattoo is located on the back of his left hand. In his case this number is one, and it is generally covered by a white glove. Stark also has a goatee and he is slim yet muscular in figure. His clothing consists of the typical white arrancar clothing, albeit with a few difference. The collar on his jacket is upturned, ad one side is longer than the other. He also wears a black sash which holds his katana. Stark's look greatly resembles a spanish matador, especially in his release form.

Personality

Just like his apperance, so it is that Stark has a personality which is alot like Shunsui. He is incredibly lazy and laid back. He is often showing to be sleeping and does not take a keen interest in what his fellow arrancar are up to, so he does not interact with them that much. The only arrancar he seems to interact with is his fraccion Lilynette. Stark's lazy demeanor also translates to the battlefield. Despite being the top rank, he allows Barragan to take a leadership role, when Aizen, Gin and Tosen become trapt. He also is not one to enjoy doing things, a prime example is when he was ordered to capture Orihime. When facing Shunsui he would much rather lay back, and allow the other battles to finish first. Despite his lazy attitude Stark is highly intelligent and analytical. He also tends to get annoyed rather easily, as shown when Shunsui kept dodging his attacks, and when he hated going into his release form, only doing so to witness Shunsui and Ukitake's bankais.

Recently Stark has stated that hollows are not the type to seek revenge for their fallen comrades. Stark himself says that he is not that type to look for revenge, that more fighting only leads to more deaths. Though laid back, this is not entirely true. Stark view his fellow Espadas friends, and is upset by their deaths. Though he does not show it, hiding his true self. It is only with Lilynette's words of motivation that Stark finaly realizes that he must fight for revenge, to avenge those he cared about.

Relationships

Stark is one of those characters who do not interact with the other charaters as much as some, especially in his own ranks. Though he does not seem to care about his fellow hollows, appearing laid back, and detached when they are killed. However Stark does care for his fellow hollows, but the same can't be said for Aizen. Though he likely respects Aizen, he does not care to much for him. Stark also has a better relationship with the shinigami than the other hollows do, in particular Shunsui. Their personality, and way of doing things make them alot alike.

Lilynette

The most notable relationship that Stark has in the series is between him, and his fraccion, later revealed other half Lilynette. The two share a deep bond, clear as the two were once one hollow. There relationship, can be viewed as a typical, older brother and younger sister one. Stark who is often sleeping and relaxing, would often get suprise attacks from Lilynette, hitting him, and trying to motivate him, in particular doing something about his comrades' deaths. Though she often attacks Stark, it is clear she cares for him, and respects him and his power greatly. She is willing to do what she is told, if she knows it's the right thing to do. Out of all the people Lilynette is perhaps the only person to motivate Stark, into showing his true power, and to avenge the fallen.

Aspect of Death

Each Espada represents and aspect of death, which are the 10 reasons human die, Stark's aspect of death is Loneliness, this represents his battle style, which refers on how strong he becomes when he fuses with his other (Lilynette), when he becomes one he extremely powerful, but as stated by him he hates ''this pain in the ass release'', maybe becuase he is alone.
