Vizard
Vizard Guide
The Vizard (or Viazard) are complete opposites of the arrancar; they are shinigami who have developed a hollow inside them to obtained hollow powers and whose shinigami powers remain dominant. To accomplish this, they must at some point battle their inner hollow, and then maintain dominance over it from that point onwards, however. Since they were originally shinigami, they appear as most humans do, but can summon their hollow masks at will. They carry zanpakuto, but have a tendency to prefer the use of their hollow powers over their shinigami powers. When they use their hollow powers, the vizard must have their mask on, and the whites of their eyes turn black with the irises turning gold. Other than that, no other physical changes take place. They do not have a Hollow's "heartless hole" on their body to indicate that they have no soul or sense of self. While wearing their masks, they are in complete control, but the amount of time they can use there mark seems to have a limit. The limit varies from vizard to vizard. Soul Society considers Vizards as criminals for committing the ultimate taboo of acquiring hollow powers. Hollows would also never accept a vizard, since they are former shinigami which are hollows enemy. It is because of this that it can be presumed that the only side the Vizard are on is their own.
Vizard Gear
A Vizard's Zanpakuto so far seems to be the same as a shinigami's and since Ichigo is technically a vizard suggests that they can use releases, zanpakuto skills and bankai as well.
The mask of a vizard is what grants them the ability to use hollow powers. In battle, the vizard "summons" their hollow mask & use their hollow powers to augment their shinigami abilities, granting them massive increases in strength, speed, stamina and endurance. They also gain access to some of the common hollow abilities, such as cero blasts. Body injuries can easily be ignored while wearing their masks.
