Bount

The Bount were an accident, really. A Makuta scientist known as Katawa was working on a device that could turn spirit particles into regular matter, not knowing that one had been invented already, but due to a miscalculation, accidentally created three living beings, two males and one female. These creatures proved incredibly violent, and had an ability (And the need) to suck the life energy from mortal creatures, not that much unlike Hollows. These creatures named themselves the Bount, and escaped to Earth, where they proceeded to live and breed in Europe. Most humans know them as vampires, but most foolishly refuse to believe in them. The Bount were wanted dead by spiritual authorities and the Makuta, and were classified as a Rank: A+ threat.

A Bount's main form of combat was summoning a being called a Doll. Dolls are a manifestation of a Bount's true power, much like a zanpakuto, except that they are more like familiars than spiritual weapons. A Doll could also detect weakness in its user's heart, and if they find that the user is insufficient to meet their ends, they will gladly kill and eat them. Due to this, Bount must keep themselves firm at heart and can never show weakness, for danger of being consumed by their Doll. A Doll is summoned by focusing spirit energy into a special medium, anything from a deck of tarot cards to a metal sphere to even a bottlecap. Another Bount could control a Doll if they have the medium, though controlling more than one Doll is something that only a truly powerful Bount can accomplish. An example of a Doll would be the infamous Dracula, whose Doll took the form of a sulphurous mist, and could possess any animal of the night that breathed its substance in, such as a pack of wolves or a swarm of bats.

The Bount species was destroyed when Blackout used unstable hadrium to destroy Earth, thus ending the threat forever.
