Name - The name of the Zanpakutou.
Appearance: The appearance of the Zanpakutou. This should be broken down into several stages. The first stage should include the description of the weapon before it is released, with all critical information about the weapon's length, etc, whether it's a sword or knife or fan or whatever. Then, any time your Zanpakutou changes appearance, such as for a Released weapon, you should state how it changes during the release.
Manifestation: What does the spirit of your Zanpakutou appear like? What is it's personality like? Basically, go into big detail about your Manifestation because training and working with your Manifestation is critical for the Release of your Zanpakutou.
Inner World: When training to use the Zanpakutou, almost everyone enters into the Zanpakutou's "Inner World". This is a special place that is only accessible to the Shinigami and the Manifestation of the Zanpakutou. It generally fits with the description of the Manifestation, so if your Manifestation was a penguin, chances are that you'd be in the snow.
Release Phrase: This is the phrase that is called out in order to allow your Zanpakutou to be Released into Shikai. All Zanpakutou have a Release Phrase; it may only be skipped once an individual has obtained Bankai.
Abilities: Your Zanpakutou is allowed to have three abilities during the course of Shikai. Those abilities should be listed here, as well as the rank that you would obtain those abilities (4, 8, 12). If you're not sure what all your abilities will be yet, then that's fine. You can submit the abilities later and add them to your Zanpakutou once the abilities have been approved by staff. Bankai abilities will go here, as well. Be sure to go into as much detail as is possible here, because that will greatly increase the chances of your Zanpakutou getting accepted.

Example:

Beppin (Beautiful Woman)
Appearance: Beppin is a small tanto, with the blade about ten inches in length, and the handle about two inches, bringing the total height of the sword to one foot. The blade is sharp on both ends, which is unusual for a tanto, and the sheathe is usually placed on the inside of Jianna's robe, between her bosom. The hilt itself is simply a dark color, near black, bound with a tight black leather ribbon in order to allow excellent grip of the weapon. When released, Beppin's form transitions away from a sword, and actually transforms into a small doll of a young woman. The doll's height is about four feet in height, with black hair and pale white skin. It has blue eyes, and red painted fingernails. For more information on the weaponry within the doll, please see the Abilities section.
Manifestation: Beppin's manifestation is that of a young child; the victim of a violent rape in life, and whose spirit was incapable of letting the hurt go when she had died. Beppin is actually a part of Jianna who was sealed away whenever a portion of her spirit was sealed inside of the Zanpakutou. Beppin likes to run around and play, but she does it at inappropriate moments. When things are usually meant to be funny, she is quite serious and difficult to be around. Her appearance is exactly similar to the appearance of the of the doll; she stands almost four feet in height, with black hair, pale skin, and blue eyes.
Inner World: The inner world of the Beppin Zanpakutou is an endless chain or oriental rooms, with the sliding doors and mats for sleeping. These rooms can be modified at will by the zanpakutou spirit, making the next room that she enters have whatever it is that she wants or needs. This can be anything from a simple tea room to even a playground, or a funeral home. The windows always show a blue light, but if one were to attempt to jump through a window, they'd simply end up in another room.
Release Phrase: Mibae goshujin ukime, Beppin. "Show your misery, Beautiful Woman."
Abilities:

Ningyoushibai - "Puppet Show" - When the release phrase is chanted, a great white light will erupt from the sword. Flying quickly from wherever it is positioned, it will then soar into the air, usually about five feet above Jianna's right shoulder, and begin to spin rapidly. The light will then bend and twist around, until, a few seconds later, a young woman will step out of the light. The girl's appearance is actually that of a doll, and has been explained earlier. The doll takes on the opposite fighting aspects of Jianna's, meaning that the doll is actually quite skilled at Hakuda and Hoho. At its' original stage, the doll absolutely must be controlled by the user's hands, meaning that it lacks the ability to fight separately from Jianna. Later improvements and ranks will allow Beppin to fight separately from Jianna's control, as well as give her command over Kido spells that Jianna is knowledgeable of.
