Sanbika (賛美歌; Literally meaning; "Hymn")

Melody of Health: The wielder of Sanbika plays a peaceful melody on the flute form of Sanbika that projects a light green sphere shaped around the user.
The light green sphere can be passed through just as if it wasn't there. Although, those within the green sphere are healed. This is a double edged blade because the sphere does not provide protection, just heal those within the vicinity of it. Although, this also allows for one to send attacks from inside the sphere as well, healing allies while also attacking.

Healing wounds within the sphere are as followed:

1 Post: Minor cuts and bruises are healed. Cracked bones, twisted bones, broken toes/fingers, have been healed.
2 post: Any serious bleeding has been stopped and those experiencing extremes amount of pain have begun to feel numb to the injuries. Broken bones have been healed along with slashes/deep cuts.
3 post: Any serious internal damage has been healed and almost everyone within the sphere looks brand new. Severed limbs have been regrown and any fatal damage has been recovered.

*This healing ability can only heal physical wounds, thus poisons or mental damage can not be healed within the sphere.
*This healing ability can not revive the dead.
*Once the melody is played, the sphere stays constructed for four post. (The melody does not have to be continued to be played during these four post. Just to erect the healing sphere.)
*Has a four post cool down period.  

Melody of Protection: The wielder of Sanbika plays a repetitive melody on the flute form of Sanbika. When doing so, the user creates a dome like shield around the user, or if in the air a sphere like shield. The transparent barrier is extremely powerful. Against normal blades/weapons, the shield is not even harmed. The barrier has earned a name in the soul society has being one of the most powerful in the soul societies data base.

Dimensions of the Sphere: 30 feet out and 12 feet high. The barrier is created with the user in the center of it, thus stretching the barrier out 30 feet in all directions.

The sphere has a extremely high resistance against normal human world weapons, shinigami's blades that are still in their sealed states, and can also be used to stop any dangerous gases from getting to close.

Duration: As long as one plays the flute. [Max 7 post]
Cool down: Double the number of however long the ability was used. So if one used the barrier for 3 post, there is a 6 post cool down period.


Melody of Strike: The wielder plays a unusual melody that gathers spiritual energy at the end of the flute and fires the raw spiritual energy in the direction of the target. This abilities stats are based off of the wielders kido ranking. The raw spiritual energy takes a dark purple color along with the shape of a sphere that deals blunt damage when struck with that is capable of breaking through walls or pushing enemies back greatly.

Cool Down: 1 post.
Range: Any direction, up to 80 feet.
Duration: 1 post.
Dimensions: 28 inches / sphere shape.

Hypnotic Melody: The user plays the flute form of Sanibika, the melody played sounds extremely hypnotic. Once the targets hear the melody, all of their senses are under the manipulation of the wielder. The wielder is able to create illusions to trick the target or create an entire world in the eyes of the target, while in all actuality the target is simply standing or sitting in place, hypnotized. After the target is hypnotized though, the wielder may play the flute in order to control the movements of the desired target. Turning the target into a puppet for the user. While under the control of the wielder, the targets is trapped in a illusion world created by the wielder of sanbika, having no awareness of was their body is doing. The world they're trapped in can range from a happy place to built on the fears of the target, just dependent on what the wielder wishes.

Duration: One is under the hypnotic trance as long as the flute is played. Max [10 post]

Cool Down: +1 on the number of post the ability was used. So, if the ability was used for 3 post, the cool down is 4 post.

Range: May target up to 5 targets at any given time. Can effect targets in any direction within 70 feet of the wielder.

Resistance: If one's willpower, mental deduction, or focus is above dangerous they are capable of breaking out of the hypnotic state as well. One can also be released of the state by enduring a fatal wound. The trauma from the wound breaks the target(s) from their hypnotic state. Although, the wound must be fatal. Simple cuts and bruises won't break the target out of the trance.

Weakness:

• While a target is under the control of the Hypnotic Melody, the wielder of Sanbika does not have access to the targets zanpakuto. If the target had already released theri Zanpakuto before being placed under control though, the wielder of Sanbika has access to the blade in that form.
  
  
• The wielder must continue to play the flute in order to manipulate the target. The illusion lasts one post pass when the flute is finished playing. The ability to control the target though, is lost as soon as the flute has ceased playing.
  

Melody of the Summoner: The user begins to play the flute bankai form of Sanbika, this causes what appears to be a portal to open near the wielder of Sanbika. Emerging out of the portal is a large white serpent that wears an unusual beads around its neck. The serpent is capable of demolishing through buildings, digging under ground, and releasing a venom in gas and liquid form.
The venom that the serpent uses is powerful enough to kill a normal human within two post.
When used against shinigami and other super human beings, the venom paralyzes two post after injection/inhaling (The entire body becomes stiff and stops the target in their place, but also puts them through a tremendous amount of pain) and kills after four post.  It's a slow and painful death.
The venom can be released in a poisonous purple gas that covers a 15 feet in length and 15 in width. Or through being injected by a bite from the serpent.

The serpent also has not only great destructive force, but also has healing powers as well. The serpent is capable of neutralizing it's own venom by producing a unusual transparent liquid from his mouth that is meant to be drank or pump into a body to neutralize it's own venom. Working as the only anti-venom for the serpents venom. The serpent is also capable of making contact with a target and healing the desired contact through touch, by releasing spiritual energy to recover the wounds of those in contact with the target.

Unlike most of the abilities that involve Sanbika, the wielder does not have to continue to play the flute to use the serpent. The serpent listens to vocal and telepathic commands given from the wielder of Sanbika. It's rumored that this serpent is the pet of the spirit that lives within Sanbika.

The serpent summoned is about the size of a bus. 45 feet in length.

Weakness:

• The serpent can't be killed permanently, but once it reaches exhaustion, the serpent will vanish. Can't be used until the next thread after that.
  
• The serpent's gas venom can be blown away by causing a gust of wind or strong enough force to blow away the gas.
  
• The serpent can't can only go as far as 5 miles away from the wielder.
