Got bored, here's a basic Wind-type Zanpakuto that i've had bouncing around for awhile

Kita Kūchū (北空中 North Sky): The unreleased sate of Kita Kūchū is that of a short chokuto with no tsuba with a hilt wrapped in white cloth.

Shikai: Kita Kūchū’s release command is “Flutter” (翻る). In its released state the blade lengthens in size to that of a nodachi. A basic circular silver tsuba appears on the blade.


 * Shikai Special Abilities: The abilities of Kita Kūchū deal with the manipulation of wind using the blade as a brush with which to “paint the wind”.


 * Bifū (微風 Zephyr): This most basic technique allows the wielder to send a blade of wind flying by simply cutting the air with Kita Kūchū.


 * Daikyōfū (大強風 Strong Gale): By gashing a horizontal cut below them, the wielder creates a large barrier of strong winds with which to block and disperse attacks.


 * Ryokufū (緑風 Early Summer Breeze): After unleashing a cut straight upwards a medium sized tornado is created in front of the wielder, trapping enemies in the tornado and damaging them.


 * Kyōfūchūihō (強風注意報 Strong Wind Warning): After trapping an enemy within the tornado created by Ryokufū, the wielder can then sheathe the blade in order to cause the tornado to implode onto any trapped opponents as a barrage of cutting wind.

Bankai: Shin Hokuten Reifuku (真北天礼服 True Northern Sky Regalia): The wielder becomes covered in a white flowing longcoat with a four-layered golden sode along both arms and white cloths bandages covering the hands as gloves and five black drum’s with a white cover floating behind and above the back of the wielder arrayed in a crescent with golden tomoe drawn on them. The sword maintains it’s form from the shikai but with a detailed tomoe shaped golden tsuba.


 * Bankai Special Ability: The Bankai drastically increases the power of the control over wind and air that the shikai has, to the point of granting dominion over the two. All techniques from the shikai are still usable, but are all significantly more powerful as well as new techniques unique to the bankai.


 * Amanomihashira (天の御柱 Heavenly Pillar): The wielder cuts downward creating a vertical pillar of compressed air in front of them that pushes down any caught in the area.


 * Mokushi (黙示 Revelation): The wielder can compress all the air from the Amanomihashira technique into a single small point and then fires it downwards as a bomb into the ground creating a large explosion of wind upon impact.


 * Shinkū Haruhayate (真空春疾風 Vacuum Spring Gale) By quickly slashing in the north, south, west and east direction the wielder creates a barrier around him and his opponent in a 3 km radius. The barrier is not impenetrable but does damage those that try to move through it, the barrier is a 5 foot thick wall of wind that moves at 300 kmph in a circular motion around the barrier. In addition the inside of the dome-like barrier is affected as if the gravity in the area has been doubled due to the air pressure and oxygen levels are lowered, leaving combatants inside the dome to be exhausted much quicker whole fighting inside.


 * Tengukaze Kōhai (天狗風荒廃 Sudden Gust Devastation): After sheathing and unsheathing the blade in a lightning quick slash motion, a large shockwave of compressed cutting air is fired like a wall in the path of cutting motion of the blade, strong enough to push back most enemies with ease but not severe enough that the slash can’t be blocked.
