Description
This is my second zanpakuto and it is a dual-element zanpakuto and the elements are darkness and fire. This zanpakuto is known as Hinoyami, also known as Fiery Darkness. The fire element is used for pure offensive capabilities while the darkness element is meant for both defensive and offensive capabilities. A unique trait that belongs to Hinoyami is that due to being a dual element of both fire and darkness, its flames are colored black and are hotter than normal fire. It is a female zanpakuto spirit and I don't have a picture of one and if there is a flash game where you create your own Bleach OC, then I would have it. Until then, think of Hinoyami's appearance with your imagination. Those who wield Hinoyami will have reiatsu colored black in their shikai and black with a red outline in their bankai.

Left picture: Sealed
Appearance: A chokuto with a silver blade. Its hilt is dark grey with a red and purple vertical stripe. Its sheath is dark grey with a purple vertical stripe and a red vertical stripe on top of the purple stripe.
Passive ability(s): It is said that Hinoyami gives the wielder an incredible resistance to fire, thus becoming resistant to fire damage done by fire-type zanpakuto. The user's reiatsu color is black.

Middle picture: Shikai
Release Command: Yami no enjō o settei, Hinoyami (Set the Darkness Ablaze, Fiery Darkness) or Set the Darkness Ablaze, Hinoyami.
Pose: The user sheathes the zanpakuto and holds it upside down by grabbing the base of the sheath and stating the release command.
Appearance: A katana whose blade is red with a black blunt side, red hilt with black diamonds, grey tsuba and purple habaki.
Update: 5/22/2015: Tsuba, habaki and hilt changed. Habiki and tsuba is now purple and light purple respectively. There are now hollow ridges outside the star, but still inside the circular tsuba. Star is now purple. Hilt is now black with purple diamonds and purple pommel.

Gōkadan = Hellfire Bullet (The user lays their zanpakuto on their spare arm with the other arm aiming the zanpakuto while forming a bullet of black flames from the tip of the zanpakuto and shooting it at the enemy.)
Gōkadan Basuto = Hellfire Bullet Burst (The user lays their zanpakuto on their spare arm with the other arm aiming the zanpakuto while forming a medium-sized bullet from the tip of the zanpakuto and shooting it at the enemy. The medium-sized bullet then splits into three regular-sized bullets of black flames.)
Gōkadan Damu = Hellfire Bullet Barrage (The user lays their zanpakuto on their spare arm with the other arm aiming the zanpakuto while forming a large bullet of black flames from the tip of the zanpakuto and shooting it at the enemy. The large bullet then splits into many regular-sized bullets of black flames.)
Gōka Bīmu = Hellfire Beam (The user unleashes a condensed beam of black flames from the tip of the zanpakuto and at the enemy.)
Gōka Baria = Hellfire Barrier (The user covers him/herself with a barrier of black flames in a sphere-like shape. It can be even transferred to an ally.)
Gōka Shōgekiha = Hellfire Shockwave (The user covers their zanpakuto with black flames and does a 360 spin, sending a shockwave at the enemy or enemies. Works best if surrounded.)
Gōka Heki = Hellfire Wall (The user waves their sword around, creating a wall of black flames.)
Gōka Bunshin = Hellfire Clone (The user creates a life-like clone of his/herself made of black flames. It counts as a substitution so that the user can escape serious injuries. However, it can only be used once per activation.)

Right picture: Bankai
Release Command: Bankai: Kōgō no Hinoyami
Pose: The user plunges their zanpakuto into the ground in front of them and a pillar of black flames engulf both the user and the zanpakuto, unseen from anyone. When the black flames die down, the user is shown kneeling to the ground with Kōgō no Hinoyami planted in front of the user. The user then stands up and pulls Kōgō no Hinoyami out of the ground and resumes fighting.
Appearance: A black zanbato-like runeblade with red and purple kanji-like runes on the black zanbato, a dark grey habaki and tsuba, a hilt covered in red and black wrappings that are diagonal. The tsuba shape remains the same and the star now has 10 prongs instead of five and is colored grey.

How to get Bankai: In order to achieve Bankai, the user must learn how to harness and control the darkness such as hatred, despair, strife and agony without falling prey to its corruption by enduring every tragedy the user has seen and endured while learning to give the black flames form and shape.
Side note: However, if the user loses control of their darkness, Hinoyami can strip them of Bankai until they get their darkness under control on their own.

Gōka Hōkō-sei Nami = Hellfire Directional Wave (The user creates a directional wave of black flames from their zanpakuto.)
Gōka Misairu = Hellfire Missile (The user covers their zanpakuto in black flames. When fired, the missile is launched at the enemy while solidifying into a black missile and will follow them until it reaches them and explodes upon contact where the smoke is mushroom shaped. This technique will take some time to charge so a diversion is required.)
Gōka Sureiya = Hellfire Slayer (The user turns the sun's flames black temporary and transfers the sun's black flames to the zanpakuto, covering it with black flames, increasing their attack power and a single strike can seriously burn the enemy if blocked or instantly killed if not blocked.)
Gōka Ryūsei-gun = Hellfire Meteor Shower (The user creates a huge ball of black flames and shoots it at the sky. It then disperses into many meteors of black flames.)
Gōka Ryujin = Hellfire Dragon God (This is Hinoyami's most powerful technique. The user causes the sun to go black and create a dragon of black flames. It can also get split into five dragons of black flames.)

Trivia: Hinoyami is always calm and level-headed in and outside the battle and believes that controlling their darkness without falling prey to it can allow the user to use that darkness to do things that seem right. The only Zanpakuto whose fire can match Hinoyami's black flames is Ryujin Jakka.
