“	The sealed King of the Quincy. Over 900 years, he shall recover his heartbeat. Over 90 years, he shall recover his intellect. Over nine years, he shall recover his power. And over nine days, he shall recover the world. Let us go forth. Uryū. Haschwalth. These nine days will be the end of this world!	„
	~ Yhwach reciting the Kaiser Gesang to Uryū Ishida and Jugram Haschwalth

“	My name is Yhwach, the one who shall take everything from you.	„
	~ Yhwach before defeating Ichibē Hyōsube

“	The path has now closed. Ichigo. The path to a world without fear. The Human World, Soul Society, Hueco Mundo. They belong together as one. They should have been brought together, that life and death may mingle as one. But now that path exists no longer. All thanks to you, Ichigo. How disappointing. Because of you, life and death will not lose their form. All living things will continue to live their lives in fear of death...for all eternity.	„
	~ Yhwach explaining his philosophy and motives to Ichigo Kurosaki

Summary

Yhwach (ユーハバッハ, Yūhabahha) is the Father of the Quincy, the monarch of the Wandenreich, and the son of the Soul King, known by the designation "A" - The Almighty.

As a baby, Yhwach was incapable of sight, speech, or even the slightest movement, but never feared or despaired, as he knew he would survive. All those who touched him gained something they lacked and were healed of all their ailments, and thus he was treated with reverence, growing to be seen as a god. As those he gifted died thanks to their reduced lifespans, he slowly gained his bodily functions and became the king of the people who would become the Quincy.

This ability can be used to kill people the user could not even harm before. This ability can normally only be used by Yhwach at night, however after Jugram's death, Yhwach can possibly use this ability normally)

Yhwach can heal wounds dealt by an attack due to his gained immunity. Furthermore with Askin's Vollständig: Hasshein.

• The Yourself:
  • Power Mimicry & Shapeshifting (Yhwach can mimic not just the appearance of others but also their memories, knowledge, powers, and skills)

Attack Potency: At least Moon level (Harribel was no match for Yhwach, Yhwach states that only he can handle the power of Zanka no Tachi, implying Yhwach is on the level of Yamamoto's Bankai, this would mean Yhwach is stronger than the rest of his Stern Ritter. Yhwach kills Yamamoto after he exhausts himself from his fight with Royd, and Yhwach eventually overpowers an enraged Bankai Ichigo. Unohana implies that Yhwach can fight with Post-Unohana training Zaraki), Small Planet level with Blut Arterie (Blut provides a Bankai level increase, which is 5x, and Blut Arterie amplifies attack power, and Yhwach believes he can pierce through Ichigo's Blut Vene after wearing him down with Qualkreis) | At least Multi-Solar System level (Stabbed the Weakened Soul King, burnt True Shikai Ichigo's arm, and claimed to be far superior to the Weakened Soul King ) | Galaxy level (Significantly stronger than Senna's explosion, as he is able to remove the barrier between worlds which Senna's explosion was unable to do. Stated numerous times to be capable of destroying multiple realms and creating a new one, and without his power the world cannot stand. Grew more powerful after absorbing Ichigo's powers and the powers of his Sternritter), Universe level, possibly Universe level+ via Environmental Destruction (Causes Garganta to collapse by destroying Soul Society)

Speed: Sub-Relativistic (Significantly faster than Yamamoto. Comparable to Ichibē Hyōsube), FTL+ with Auswahlen | FTL (Kept up with True Shikai Ichigo. His darkness moves this fast), FTL+ with Auswahlen | FTL+ (Far faster than his previous form. Kept up with True Shikai Ichigo's Merged Hollow form), FTL+ with Auswahlen, Likely Infinite Attack Speed (With "The X-Axis" - Yhwach's Schrift doesn't release a projectile or an object of quantifiable speed, rather it's just a "penetrating force" which punches through "everything between the muzzle of Yhwach's weapon and his target". Causing something like the "concept" of dodging to be incapable of interfering with the speed of Yhwach's "The X-Axis". However this ability has a limit when it comes to its range, it doesn't/can't travel an infinite distance, rather it can only travel the known, effective range of Yhwach's Schrift, instantaneously)

Lifting Strength: At least Class G (Royd as himself easily defeated Kenpachi and he himself easily defeated Fullbring Ichigo) | At least Class G (Stronger than before) | At least Class G (Even stronger than before) | Class T (Stronger than a Vollständig Gerard), Class Z with Telekenisis (Lifted the Wandenreich)

Striking Strength: At least Moon level (Comparable to his Attack Potency, as he physically overpowered enraged Bankai Ichigo), Small Planet level with Blut Arterie (Multiplies his strength by 5x) | At least Multi-Solar System level (Comparable to his Attack Power) | Galaxy level (Comparable to his Attack Power)

Durability: At least Moon level (Comparable to his Attack Potency, as he can withstand the physical clashes he has with enraged Bankai Ichigo), Small Planet level with Blut Vene (Blut Vene provides a Bankai level increase to durability) | At least Multi-Solar System level (Comparable to his Attack Power, tanked a Getsuga Tensho from True Shikai Ichigo) | Galaxy level (Comparable to his Attack Power, passively keeps the worlds from collapsing as the new Soul King)

Stamina: Superhuman (Should be comparable to much weaker characters who can fight and run for days on end and survive several fatal wounds. After absorbing The Weakened Soul King, Yhwach should be capable of performing feats such as sustaining the cosmology of Bleach with his Reiatsu for millions of years)

Range: Extended Melee Range; Thousands of Kilometers with projectiles (His Sankt Bogen can fire arrows that can cross two thousand Ri), Interplanetary to Interdimensional with Auswählen and Reiatsu (Yhwach can purge selected Quincy across dimensions or across the vast distance between the Royal Palace and the Seireitei) | Same as before, Interdimensional to Universal with Reiatsu (Yhwach should be able to shake the three realms of the Bleach cosmology) | Interdimensional with the Soul King absorbed (His influence can affect all three realms in the series)

Standard Equipment: Quincy Cross, Quincy Medallion, which he has used to steal the Bankai of Captain-Commander Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto, his Spirit Weapons, which consist of a Reishi Sword, the Sankt Bogen, and an unnamed broadsword, referred to as a "Reishi Broadsword"

• Zanka no Tachi (残ざん火かの太刀たち): The Bankai of Shigekuni Yamamoto Genryusai, which Yhwach stole for himself using his medallion. Taking the form of a weathered and beaten katana, worn down by the fire, it burns with such heat that it can sears whatever it cuts out of existence, drying out Yhwach's surroundings, but no flames are visible on the blade.

• Can Summon: Several Soldat Footsoldiers, along with any member of the Sternritter.

Intelligence: Gifted, likely Genius (Yhwach is a highly intelligent man highly skilled in strategy, having secretly gathered and lead the Wandenreich to victories in Hueco Mundo without alerting the Soul Society, and maneuvering his soldiers expertly to outperform and defeat the Shinigami again and again. Yhwach is a man of highly sophisticated military strategy and is an experienced warlord. He uses his skill in leading his army to conquer several pieces of land. He has been planning his invasion of the Soul Society for a thousand years and created devices and strategies to catch the Shinigami off guard. Yhwach is skilled and experienced enough to fight with Ichibē Hyōsube, the wisest of Shinigami. The Almighty reinforces his already great intelligence with the ability to see through all futures that lie before him and act accordingly, but even then he is quite arrogant.)

Weaknesses: Blut Vene and Blut Arterie use two different Reishi systems, so they cannot be used at the same time. When using a medallion, its user need to be sufficiently powerful to wield it and the power stolen by the medallion is weaker than the original unless the Quincy in question takes the time and effort to master it. Yhwach is quite arrogant, and the Almighty cannot dispel illusions that were placed on him before he activated the Almighty. If he is incapable of maintaining his absorption of souls, he will return to the immobile state he was born into. He will briefly lose his powers if exposed to the Still Silver created in the hearts of his Auswählen victims

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Soul Distribution (魂たましいを分わけ与あたえる力ちから, Tamashī o wakeataeru chikara): As the son of the Soul King, Yhwach was born with the special ability to distribute portions of his soul to others on contact. Yhwach cultivates his already great power by bestowing these bits of his soul to others, allowing them to refine it, and then taking it back. Each piece of his soul that Yhwach regains will make him stronger and extend his lifespan, and he can deliberately absorb these pieces of soul to maintain his strength, which he must do during his sleep to prevent himself from returning to the immobile state he was born in. Those who have gifted a portion of Yhwach's soul have their lifespans greatly reduced, but all their ailments, whether physical, spiritual, or mental, are healed and all their knowledge and skills are engraved onto their share of his soul. Once their lowered lifespans run out, the piece of Yhwach's soul returns to his possession, ultimately restoring his motor skills and senses after he lost them. Yhwach ultimately refined the process of sharing his spirit with others, allowing him to bestow upon them great powers through a Schrift, engraving a letter corresponding to a certain one of his powers into their soul and then having them drink his blood. The Quincies that gained powers in this way are Yhwach's Sternritter, and upon their deaths, their power will return to Yhwach's hands once more. Yhwach Auswählen chant Auswählen activating Redistributing Power with Auswählen Yhwach using Sankt Altar 1/4 Auswählen (聖別アウスヴェーレン, Ausuvēren): The extension of Yhwach's abilities to distribute portions of his soul, which he utilized after being sealed for 990 years to regain the power that he had lost. After selecting whichever Quincies he deems appropriate for absorption, typically choosing the "impure", Yhwach can absorb their power and retake his soul, killing his victims in the process. This power can thus be redistributed to whichever Quincies Yhwach deems more useful, reviving those that have died. Auswählen takes the form of a beam of light that consumes its targets, though some have been lucky enough to survive. Even those that dodge the light lose their powers, including the ability to use Vollständig. Reishi barriers cannot stop Auswählen at all, as the power it transfers is raw energy. The Quincies who are affected by the Auswählen have a clot of "Still Silver" formed in their heart that will briefly strip away Yhwach's powers if it comes into contact with him. Absorption: Yhwach can consume other beings on contact, gaining their powers and abilities and drawing their own existence into his body to subjugate them. He can near instantly absorb those weaker than him, but those that are stronger take longer and longer amounts of time. Sankt Altar (簒奪聖壇ザンクト・アルタール, Zankuto Arutāru): Yhwach summons five orbs of Reishi, which he transports to around his opponent, at which point they all fire a beam of energy at their target, forming the shape of a Quincy Zeichen. Those who are caught in the blast have all their power stripped away by Yhwach. Self-Power Restoration: Even if Yhwach's physical or spiritual capabilities are hampered or somehow negated by his opponent, he can restore them. For example, when Ichibē's curse prevented him from speaking, Yhwach was able to regain the power of speech by digging his fingers into his throat and channeling Reishi inside, and after his power was cut in half by Ichibē's Zanpakutō, he was able to restore it by summoning and absorbing ribbons of Reishi inscribed with Roman letters. Sleep Induced Power Swapping: Yhwach and Haschwalth are two sides of a balanced scale. When Yhwach falls asleep, Haschwalth will gain his powers and Yhwach will gain Haschwalth power. Though it is likely not combat applicable unless specified. The Balance (世間調和ザ・バランス, Za Baransu): At night, when Yhwach falls asleep, he will acquire Haschwalth's Schrift that allows him to manipulate the fortune and misfortune that occurs within his sphere of influence, all good fortune experienced by the opponent in causing injury to him will be directed back to them as misfortune of the same magnitude. The Almighty (全知全能ジ・オールマイティ, Ji Ōrumaiti) Yhwach's own power and the source of his designation as "A". Upon activation, Yhwach gains his full power and his irises and pupils are split in two. Had he opened his eyes once in the 999 years after his original defeat, during which it took 900 for merely his heart to start beating again and another 90 to regain self-awareness, he would've been unable to control his own power and accidentally stolen the lives of all his loyal Sternritter. The power of the Almighty is to see all that lies in the future, observing all possible futures like grains of sand in the wind, the knowledge that Yhwach uses to predict his opponent's actions and act accordingly. However, this is only a portion of its true power, which is the ability to outright choose between the futures that lie before him, rewriting fate as he pleases to best suit his goals. Yhwach can use this power to set up traps in his opponent's future paths, easily circumvent any defensive measures his opponent takes, and shatter their weapons and forms, breaking Tensa Zangetsu and claiming to have destroyed all the Bankai in the future. He can even rewrite a future in which he has died, and it is said that any power that Yhwach sees in the future will become his ally and grow incapable of harming him at all. Reishi Manipulation: As a Quincy, Yhwach can manipulate and shape Reishi by absorbing it from the atmosphere and combining it with his own stock of spiritual energy. It is easier to collect this energy in locations with higher concentrations of Reishi, such as the Soul Society and Hueco Mundo. Yhwach's control over Reishi is exceptional, allowing him to easily shape and solidify it as he pleases, creating an intricate throne and later a staircase. Blut Vene Anhaben Blut (血装ブルート, Burūto): An advanced Quincy technique that works by pumping Reishi into the user's blood vessels, reinforcing either their strength or durability to exceptional levels. There exists a defensive and offensive form of Blut, but only one can be used at a time. Blut Arterie (動血装ブルート・アルテリエ, Burūto Aruterie): Blut's offensive form, the technique that allows Quincies to physically match and injure Bankai users. Blut Vene (静血装ブルート・ヴェーネ, Burūto Vēne): Blut's defensive form, which makes its use clear in the form of a glowing trail that traces the user's blood vessels, which appears only when the enhanced area is struck. When consciously maintained at full power, Blut Vene can even negate the attacks of a Bankai user. It can also be used to stop the user's blood flow in the event that they are badly injured, preventing them from bleeding out. Blut Vene Anhaben (外殻静血装ブルート・ヴェーネ・アンハーベン, Burūto Vēne Anhāben): Yhwach extends his Blut Vene out from his body to create a powerful forcefield that consumes those around it, breaking down living beings, to fuel and maintain itself. Hirenkyaku (飛ヒ廉レン脚キャク): A high-speed Quincy movement technique that functions by riding on a flow of Reishi underneath their feet. A master of the technique, Yhwach is capable of easily catching the likes of Yamamoto off-guard, keep up with Ichibē, and overwhelm Ichigo. Kirchenlied: Sankt Zwinger Kirchenlied: Sankt Zwinger (聖唱キルヒエンリート「聖域礼賛ザンクト・ツヴィンガー」, Kiruhienrīto: Zankuto Tsuvingā): An incredibly powerful Quincy spell, the greatest in both offensive and defensive power. After generating several constructs inscribed with Roman numerals, Yhwach can manifest several columns of Reishi shaped like the Quincy Cross around him, which burst from the ground, tearing apart any caught in the "light of God". Ranso Tengai (乱装天傀ランソウテンガイ, Ransōtengai): A highly advanced Quincy technique that lets the user control their own body with strings of Reiryoku connected to their brain. Thanks to this ability, even if the user is paralyzed or so badly injured that they cannot move normally, they can force their body to move by controlling it as if it were a marionette. Sankt Bogen Qualkreis 1/2 Sankt Bogen (大聖弓ザンクト・ボーゲン, Zankuto Bōgen): Yhwach's Spirit Weapon, an immense bow that he can manifest in his hands or somewhere in his surroundings, using it to fire at his opponents with similarly large arrows. Heilig Pfeil (神聖滅矢ハイリッヒ・プファイル, Hairihhi Pufairu) The primary form of attack for Quincies, spiritual energy manifested as arrows and fired from the Sankt Bogen, or in Yhwach's case, even just from his fingertips. He can fire them as a rapid-fire barrage capable of completely obliterating a foe in short order. Qualkreis (苦悶の環クヴァール・クライス, Kuvāru Kuraisu): Yhwach summons down multiple large Heilig Bogen that surrounds his target that proceed to shoot equally large Heilig Pfeil from all sides. The Heilig Pfeil can also be used to push objects such as rubbles into the target to trap them. Reishi Broadsword: Yhwach can fire an immense arrow around his own height from the Sankt Bogen to the ground at his feet, an arrow that will transform into a large, extremely powerful broadsword once he grabs it. Sklaverei (聖隷スクラヴェライ, Sukuraverai): A Quincy technique that allows the user to control Reishi in the most absolute of ways, enslaving it outright. This powerful ability allows them to completely tear apart and dissolve spiritual objects and beings, drawing upon this and even absorbing this Reishi to temporarily gain the abilities of beings destroyed in this way. Shadow (影かげ, Kage): A teleportation ability used by members of the Wandenreich, this technique can be used by manifesting the user's shadows in front of them, creating a portal that acts as a gate between the Schatten Bereich and other dimensions. The size of these portals can be extended to allow many others to pass through. Medallion (メダリオン, Medarion): A device possessed by select members of the Wandenreich military, including all Sternritter which allows one to steal a Shinigami's Bankai or any power that is fundamentally similar to a Shinigami's Bankai.
