Memories of a Shinigami (Invite Only): OOC

[Sinister]

Yea, I caught that when I read back over the posts, Xeim. Should be fixed now. ^^! Sorry about the inconsistency.

EDIT: Oh thank you, Xeim, for the compliment. It's such a thrill to write about Bleach, I might get a little carried away, though. Better keep me in line .

-Sin

[Xeim]

Well, I am planning an arc having to do with hollows soon after we graduate. As long as you make sure this arrancar isn't godmodding, you're welcome to do so. When I get the arc worked out a little more I'll post a bit about it so you guys have time to plan what you want your characters to do for it. Then Evangel, you can plan your character for that if you want. He doesn't have to die in the arc, surely, but it'd be a good way to introduce him at least.

Sin, thanks for fixing that. ^^

And...for those of you passing exams, I need to know what classes you're going to want to be taking (read this). Either PM them to me or email them to me if you have my address. I already have Toph for both his characters. And, obviously Andro I won't be needing Steph's.

I do need these before we can finish test day. I do NOT want to put a stopper on this RP however, so make sure you get them to me. I will PM you if we get close to the end of the day and I have not recieved your requested classes.

[Andromeda]

Oh Xeim, I figure your read my post, but if you have not I understand since it is very lengthy. I will need to talk to you when ever you have time to work out things between Kagashi and Haruka. When you get to that part in my post, I purposely omitted the conversation, though implied that a conversation happened. So that you could write what you wanted. But since I did a few things I figured it would be good to plan out some future events.

Also I still need to talk to you about the ideas I have. So whenever you are on AIM, stop by and see me.

And Evangel I guess you can interact with me and the two characters I have. I'm not really sure what at this point since as you said you've been very quiet. Though you can just approach someone and start something up.

[Victoria]

Yeah, I figured I can have Shino/Mai interact with Jecht's character. Since I'm giving them a break from Haruka right now anyway. It'd be a nice change of things.

[Evangel]

Xeim, I know what I want to do for my character. I actually have a lot planned out for Mugen, Rei, and my Arrancar. As You guessed, Mugen is going to become a Vizard eventually, when that does, I guess I'll break off from the group and he'll interact with my Arrancar character after the Hollow arc you have planned. Actually, if you are interested, I'll let you in on what I have planned. Just PM me or something.

As for interacting with someone, I'll end my next post in the cafeteria, so if someone wants to meet my character there, be my guest.

[Andromeda]

Actually, Evangel, I can't speak for Xeim. So she can stop me if I'm stepping over my bounds here. But it would be preferable if you continued into the test. I know that Xeim is working on a post that is going to be putting her through at least one test. So it would be good for yourself as well to do the same, at least one test, if not two since I put myself through two.

[Evangel]

I was already finished with my post when I saw the notice in my mail box about your post here, sorry. I'll make sure to post again later this week that starts off my tests.

[Xeim]

Evangel, I really will need to see what you have planned. Please PM it to me. You don't need to include every little detail, but give me enough so that I can know how to fit it into the Rp, or if I can't do so at all. And with your next post, if you're posting later this week....you'll probably need to get through two tests in it. I'm trying to get through test day rather quickly so that we can bring others into the Rp.

I have my post nearly finished. It's only taking me through the first test, and ends right before the second. I kind of...ran out of ideas. I'll post through the second test soon though.

[Oathkeeper13]

Im still making mine. Im still making sure I get everything into it though in one post. But I want to make sure I do all the requirments.

[~WP-Night]

Ok, being back for good, I think I'd better repost my characters ^^ Here we go!

Name: Shukuen (Shu) Hajimari

Age (of death): 17

Current Age: 27

Birthday: April 4th

Birthplace: Karakura Town

Hair Color: Blue-Black

Eye Color: Grey-Blue

Blood Type: AB

Gender: Male

Height: 5’9

Weight: 8 stone

Zanpukto name: 'Kuraokami'

Zanpukto element: Rain and Snow

Zanpakto Release Phrase: "Nagare, Kuraokami" ((Nagare: Flow))

Occupation: Academy Student

Shinigami Fighting Specialty: Swordmanship

Shinigami Fighting Minor: Kidō

Standard Specialties: Attack, Defense, Endurance, Speed.

(‘Kidō’: Demon Art)

'Binding Kidō’:
#1 Sai (Restrain) : Locks a target's arms in place behind their back.
#9 Geki (Strike) : Engulfs a target in red light, completely paralyzing them.

'Destruction Kidō’:
'#1 Sho' (Trust) : Pushes target away from the caster.
‘#4 Byakurai’ : White Lightning — Fires a concentrated bolt of lightning from the caster's forefinger.
‘#31 Shakkaho : Shot of Red Fire — Fires a ball of red energy at a target.
Incantation: Ye Lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, The sea barrier surges, March on to the south!

‘#33 Soukatsui : Blue Fire, Crash Down — Fires a burst of blue spiritual energy at a target in a similar manner to 31, but over a wider area and with more power.
Incantation: Ye Lord! Mask of flesh and bone, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance, Upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws!

'Special Kidō':
'#16 Anchipanku (Unwanted Puncture) : Creates 4 long acupuncture needles from a bluish energy and hurls them at the target. When target is hit it causes little damage, but numbs the area it hits. Incantation: Omnipresent watcher of undimished disease! Cast out your iron arm, all ye witnesses gasp at the sharp brilliance of the moon!
#4 Haihoutai (Crawling Bandage) : A bandage that appears from thin air and wraps around the target. Can also be used to stop the bleeding of wounds as a double effect.

Personality/Appearance: Shukuen is well built and almost athletic in appearance. His hair is messy but almost styled and is blackish-blue, and his eyes are also a wishy-washy Blue-Grey. Looking at him, you would tell yourself, don’t judge a book by its cover. And normally you’d be right. But not with him. Shukuen is very laid back in normality, preferring to observe than to act. He isn’t so much lazy, just indifferent. Though there are times when true human qualities are shown, like his loyalty, or perhaps care, or if you’re unlucky enough, his glares which have been nicknamed ‘The Withering Looks’.

Background: Shukuen grew up in a busy family. His Mother and Father were usually working and he was left either with grumpy old women or went to a friend’s house; even from an early age. This caused Shukuen’s uncaring persona and his laid back personality. Of course, when he was 12, his parents split up and he was left with his Mother, his Father saying that he had to leave. This lead to Shukuen being very independent, especially with his Mother trying to find another man. This lead him to other activities, such as drinking and smoking but at the same time becoming very popular for his 'rebel attitude'. Of course, once his Mother found a man and got married, he felt a change in the family, and instantly stopped his uneeded behaviour, dropping all things he used to do. There he found he had a sister with this man and, and indeed, his life changed. He felt he needed to grow up and take care of her, better than his parents at least. This pushed him to always be with her, trying to help, to guide. He also found that she had her own personality, full of flare and fun. This, is probably the reason why he accompanied her to Mt.Fuji, as she felt slightly nervous about it.
After Death: Throughout the years, even after becoming a Shinigami, Shukuen began to change. He became aloof and cold over the way that he and his sister had died. Not only that, but mainly because he didnt find her after she had died also. He tried to find her, for several years too. But with no avail. So eventually, he moved on, painfully, and began to hate the Soul Society. Due to this he became unruly, and took to thieving and hooliganism. This thus lead to the Gotei 13 being informed, and a lesser Shinigami was sent out to bring him in. Eventually he was caught, reprimanded by a 10th seat official. There he gave him a choice, go to jail for a couple of years, or do something to make up for his actions and join the Acadmey; and of course he picked the latter. Thus began his journey to become a shinigami.

Incantation: “Terrible Father of the unknown, do not wait with your stick and hide, terrify with loving intensity!”
Effect/Desc: Forms a Haze from the target which confuses the target and makes it ‘lost’. Medium level binding spell.


Personality/Appearance:
Hana is very energetic, especially when her sarcastic remarks cause a horde of laughter. She prefers to take this approach to people as it makes things easier for her, especially when making new friends. This is simply a ploy to seem normal however. Usually she is calmer than she appears and tends to enjoy subtler things such as reading and writing.

Hana is averagely built and has short hair that looks almost like a bob except for two layers of hair that go down in front of her ears and down to her shoulders.

Background: Hana is Shukuen’s younger step-sister, and she lives with him and her parents, her father being Shukuen’s Step-Father. Hana had heard, usually from Shukuen, of how his Mother and Father had split up, and his Father went to stay in England. Shukuen didn’t feel bitterly about it, and therefore neither did Hana, understanding her Brothers feelings. They always seemed to have a link, and rather worked as a team than brother and sister. This occurred in their school years, as Hana usually followed her older brother. Supposedly, Shukuen felt he needed to protect her, as her Mother and Father would say, but she felt that it was because he enjoyed her company. This always brought her pride in who she was, making their relationship even stronger. This is one reason that he accompanied her on the trip to Mt.Fuji. He had long forgotten the school trips he used to go on, and therefore accompanied Hana on one of her special ones.
After Death: Unfortunately, after Hana died, she lost her memory of her past life, including that of her older brother. This lead to many problems. Hana was lost, without home or even food. She became ill and collapsed one day, becoming unconcious. When she awoke, she found herslef in the comapny of a small family.They clothed and fed her and eventually adopted her. Through this she recieved a loving father, by the name of Yosuke Furawaa, and 3 brothers. They all appeared the same age as her, give or take, and she continued on through the family business, which was a bread seller. Eventually, she was trusted to hold the shop on her own, as her father and brothers went out to sell bread at the market as well as filling orders to other low class families. However, all was not well. One day, she was attempting to take a list of all the stock, and kept out of sight. Unbeknown to her, a few unruly characters entered the shop quietly, moving their way forward to the till, where Hana was kneeling down. When she stood up, she got a shock, and the man tried to take the money. Another man grabbed Hana, threatening to kill her if she made a noise. Suddenly, something snapped in her, and she formulated a plan. A nearby broom was just about close enough for her to grab, so she quicklyriggled out of the way, elbowing the man in the ribs, grabbing the broom and hitting the man closest to her repeatedly. He eventually went for her and she slugged him, out cold. Then she turned to the other man, but he simply ran away, half of their savings in his arms. Later on, when her father returned, to check on Hana, he found the mess, and a rather terrified man tied to a chair. He felt like laughing really, but called the appropriate Shinigami, and he took him away, taking on the case to find the other man. He then added, that she had what it took to be a Shinigami, and therefore, you can imagine what happened next...

----------------------------

Name: Alex Thompson

Current Age: 25

Birthday: June 17th

Birthplace: North London

Hair Color: Blonde

Eye Color: Bluish-Green

Blood Type: AB

Gender: Male

Height: 6’0

Weight: 9.8 stone

Weapons/Cross: Alex carries a strange eight pointed cross made from bone that looks like a sign pointing in four different directions. It’s called the ‘Chaos’ Amulet and allows ‘exorcists’ to choose the outcome of spirits that he exorcises. He wears the cross on a chain. He also uses Holy Water and a Bible. He carries a notebook with several incantations and notes on his findings. He normally has the holy water in little vials, and also in some plastic pockets which he pops over the cross when using his abilities. He also carries several holy books and relics, one of which being the bible.

Occupation: Exorcist

Quincy Weapons:
Shield ((Gabriel): Soar, and guide my Soul): Saying the incantation and name of this Archangel creates a star-like shield in a burst of light. Can be held for several minutes.
Orb ((Raphael): Mercy, save the deceasing flesh of mortality, by the Lords hand, Heal): Saying the incantation with this Archangel’s name produces a small hand sized orb over the cross which can be used to heal-much like Shinigami healing only really reverting any physically(or spiritually) affected body parts back to what they were before they were hurt. It can also be sent telepathically to those that can be seen by the caster.
Bow ((Michael): Hold, with your heart of Courage and Light, Purify the untrue and take aim):When this Archangels name is spoken it creates a traditional bow. It is slightly curved and is white. It also has little spikes that come out diagnolly from each end of the bow. The word ‘Release’ is used make an arrow and release it. The arrow can be changed with further incantations and words.
((Important Note: Alex is not truly a Quincy, and therefore needs certain requirements to summon these ‘objects’. Firstly, it requires spiritual focus which Alex’s training as an exorcist helps. And it either requires emotional energy, such as when he is scared, or for it to be forcibly activated, it requires a sacrifice of Holy Water which Alex channels the spirit particles through (as well as his cross)))

(‘Kiten’: Heaven Art)

(‘Seal Of Solomon’): “King of Kings, I summon your Holy Essence to enforce justice, so that light may prevail and Rebirth. Seek out the unheavenly burden on which this world collects, through the bronze Urn which thou hast created, ensure and punish, Go Forth!”
Effect/Desc: This Kiten is a Destructive spell, and a Star of David appears above the target. Seven beams of light, One focused on the target, swirl around and suddenly focus strongly on the target, blinding it and keeping it within the pillar of light. Then, from the seal, a huge burst of energy crashes down on the opponent, exploding it with a Light/Holy Elemental attack.

('Summoning'): "Children of the sky and of life, giggle and reveal, soar through our hearts and return, Cherubim!"
Effect/Desc: Markings appear over the arm and wrist, then a sphere of light appears in the palm and rises with wings. Through this, messages can be received. This is also a spirit, so it cannot be seen by ordianry people. It can also scout ahead for any issues. The only issue is, it exuberates a minor amount of spirit force, so it is easily detected, especialy by Hollow's. It also has its own personality, talking rapidly in a cute echoed manner. It can detect whether someone is pure of heart, floating around them incessantly and speaking of its undying love and respect for the person. Alex and the Cherubim often have arguements.(further revealed)

Personality/Appearance: Alex is fairly skinny, tall and very pale. He always seems to wear something white, usually everything, but not the usually worn Dog-collar to show his ordination as a Priest and an Exorcist. He likes to wear light colours, and can be usually seen wearing a white fitted jacket with no colour and golden edges. He also wears matching pants and shoes. His cross is left dangling from a chain around his neck and on his right hand he has a ring that was given to him by his father. It seems to have some special significance to his ancestry, but even his father knows little about it.

Background: Alex was born and grew up in Britain, being brought up as a Catholic; he took an interest in the Church. There he joined as a Deacon at the age of 14. He was training to become a Priest in and in the final second year, as his 16th birthday was arriving, his Father sat him down. There he told him of his other family, and that they had suffered a horrific accident. They were to attend the funeral, and Alex left immediately with his Mother and Father. The plane trip over was long, but gave Alex time to think about his other family, and how he would never meet them. This then began to awaken his powers, the longing for the departed souls. When they finally arrived, and watched the burial and cremation. Alex seemed to become ill, getting strange feeling headaches and constant feelings he wasn’t alone. And then, when he got home, he realized he had been gifted. Ok, he thought by God, but still, and then he became an Exorcist. He wished to rid the world of ‘evil’ spirits and make life easier for the living and dead. As time passed, his abilities grew allowing him to physically see(sort of speaking) spirits and commune with them. He then was Awarded special privileges by the Vatican and sent to a high up but top secret place where he studied endlessly, and remains there, leaving to do expert exorcisms on spirits and creatures alike…

Looking forward to posting ^^

[Andromeda]

Im still making mine. Im still making sure I get everything into it though in one post. But I want to make sure I do all the requirments.

While I welcome you doing it all in one post it is not necessary to make it all one post. You can post what you have and just keep on writing it. That way you are still posting allowing others to post as well that may be held up by having recently posted. And you can still be moving things along for your characters. Its up to you, but its not required to make it all one post.

[Xeim]

Waterprince: One question about your profiles. You say that Hana is Shu's half sister, and that his parents divorced when he was 12. But she's only 2 years younger than him. Is she really his step sister? It's a minor detail...but I thought I should ask as it confused me a bit. As for the kidou spells, make sure you remember you can't have them use all of them until after you graduate from the academy. And remember I don't want you having Alex be a Quincy. I don't mind a gifted exorcist, but no Quincy. I believe we had this chat before you posted the characters the first time.

We're still on test day, currently. Your profiles kind of pushed your characters up to where they join the Academy, but like I told Sin if you want to start posting right away, you're welcome to have a couple posts with your characters in Rukongai. Or, since you have Alex, you can go ahead and do some posts with him. After test day ends you'll be joining basic training at the Academy. I'll repost details of basic training later. Or, really, you can, and should, read through the whole Rp to get an idea. It's only 6 pages.

Oath: Like Andro said, you don't have to do everything in one post. While I'd like it if you could get through one or two tests in one post, it's not neccessary as long as you can still keep up with everyone as we move through test day.

Which reminds me once again, that I still need classes from some people. Please make sure you get those to me! Don't make me go bankai on your arses...keke. ^_^;

I'm going to try my hardest to get another post out soon. My time on the computer is about to become restricted, however. I have three projects due in a couple weeks that I've been putting off. After them, I have finals. -_- So, I'll try to get on as much as posssible, but chances are you won't hear from me much for the rest of the month.

[Sinister]

*Jumps up and down with his legs crossed*
wannabeashinigamiwannabeashinigamiwannabeashinigam i

I WANNA BE A SHINIGAMI! lol.


So vizards are out for the moment and Quincys probably wouldn't fit in in the SS very well, lol.

BTW, do you know what would be cool when we finish this RP. Start up a next generation of Captains. Like zip into the future and see where all are characters have ended up.

Like which became captains and which got outcast, killed or turned into hollows. See which canon captains are still around and which have been replaced. See who are the new villains, rogues and plot points.

...

I'm getting caried away lol...


Oh and we need moogle shinigami...(ok that's too far but it'd still be cool)

-Sin

[Andromeda]

The end of the RP is currently undetermined as once we finish with the academy we are becoming shinigami. When that happens we are going to be going on missions or whatever as well as being assigned to a squad. From there Xeim is planning on doing similar story arcs that you would expect to find in Bleach with our character fighting hollows and other bad guys trying to do whatever their nefarious plans are, usually involved in fighting the Soul Society or something of that nature.

As for the test I'm making the final post for Steph and Kagashi today. And then they will be finished with the exam. However, I know that there are some people that have not even started to make posts for their tests. I'm hoping that changes soon. We have two people waiting to join us. Maybe more depending on things.

[Xeim]

Well, I actually know how I want to end it. I just don't know how much I want to do before we end it. But I wouldn't mind a sequel if we're all still alive by the time this ends. xD So, that's definately possible, Sin. Hehe.

As for Arcs, I've only got plans for three right now. One having to do with hollows, one andro's cooking up, and one having to do with humans. If anyone has any (reasonable) ideas, feel free to PM me. As this is a club RP I don't mind not being the only one to come up with arcs.

And you're going to be posting through the rest of the tests, andro? Ok...I was planning on making something to finish up the day for my characters but I suppose I can hold off so there aren't any discrepancies. I don't want to keep Sin, waterprince, and others waiting to join up waiting much longer, but I also don't want to leave people behind. I'll be PMing the members we're waiting on if they don't post in the next couple of days ( and if I don't get killed by homework. Paper cuts can be quite lethal.) to see what's up.

[Evangel]

I would think that we shouldn't be thinking about the end of the RP right now, I say its bad ju-ju. We should be thinking what we should do next, not at the end after all of this. Right?

As for arcs, Xeim, how about we have these little tiny mini-arcs to develop each of our characters. Space them out between the main major arcs.

As for my idea of what I want to do with my character, If you'd still like to know, Xeim, just let me know.

I'd also like to talk to you about the tests, so when you have time, PM me.

[Andromeda]

You can still make your post Xeim. We are already disjointed from the posts anyway. My post will just bring my characters to the end of the day. I was planning on making a posts in the coming Saturday or Sunday that would end the day basically doing what you're talking about for your post it sounds. So it is good that we are on the same page. And if you post that now, it'll allow me to work off anything that you might post for my post in the next week end. I was hoping to get the new people joining us in the academy by the beginning of the following week.

That was what I was shooting for at the moment and it sounds like you are wanting the same things as well.

I sort of expect those "mini-arcs" to appear during the main arcs as we are fighting our respective enemies or training or whatever the case might be. But you should also be exploring your characters now anyway, through the process of the RP. So there should not be the need for heavy sudden character development later on. We should all be fairly well aware of the characters until they pull out something new that they developed.

[Xeim]

Jecht, I've already told you I need to know what you have in mind for your characters. And, uhm, I believe I asked for members to PM ME about the tests, not the other way around. I don't bite, you know.

Andro: Ok, I'll get to it then. I just don't want the methods for the tests to differ in any way. I'll be trying to get the post out today or tomorrow then. It would be nice to get everyone in at the beginning of next week. But, that would require the members that are already posting to get posts out in time. Let's shoot for it.

As for the mini-arcs...I'm going to have to say no. Like andro said, there's really no reason. You can develop your characters mid-arc. Plus, we'd be stuck doing those forever if we went for it.

[Andromeda]

I am available on AIM if you wanted to talk about the tests Xeim. I can understand about wanting to keep constancy between how we view each test. Which is true that I am going into a fair amount of detail with how each test is handled.

I also have a brief interaction with Steph and Haruka. So maybe you can add something there if you wanted to chat. But I should hopefully have mine up in a couple hours. I'm roughly halfway completed with the post I think.

[Sinister]

Pokes thread hard. pokes thread very very hard...
I know we have homework and what not...but let's not give up on the rp! Please! I also have a few questions I might as well get clear on.

And...for those of you passing exams, I need to know what classes you're going to want to be taking (read this). Either PM them to me or email them to me if you have my address. I already have Toph for both his characters. And, obviously Andro I won't be needing Steph's.

I do need these before we can finish test day. I do NOT want to put a stopper on this RP however, so make sure you get them to me. I will PM you if we get close to the end of the day and I have not recieved your requested classes.

Just asking a few basic questions.

One: Do you decide your classes by the specialities that you signed your char up for?

Two: Do they also determine the squad to which you are assigned?

Three: Do they determine the nature of your sponsor and test questions?

Four: If you didn't put down for instance, Shunpo, does that mean that you cannot flash step whatsoever, or just not proficient at it?

-Sin

[Andromeda]

You determine what grade you get in each test. And based on that it will put you in the corresponding class rank. You will decide all of your class ranks, but since it is for your character you will want to make it accurate to your character, naturally. The major and minor that you have can allow you to have higher ranked class. If you major in Swordsmanship, you can make your class A, while someone that is not majoring or minor in Swordsmanship would not be advised to do that, since they should not be that skilled with the sword if they are not majoring or minoring. And even if you do major or minor you don't have to be in an A rank class, its still up to you decide your ranking. But depending on your classes and skills will end up affecting where Xeim places you in the Gotei 13.

This is as I understand it from how Xeim explained things previously. Hope that answers your questions.

[Sinister]

Thank you, Andro. It did indeed. It cleared it up very nicely. And in further RP posts I shall keep all of this in mind.

Much thanks,
-Sin

[Andromeda]

And as for the RP I don't plan on giving up on it, but it is difficult to post in it when I'm the last one to have posted. But I will be posting again whenever I am able to do so. We still have the majority of the people in the RP getting through with the exams.

EDIT: Its been two weeks now since anyone has posted. I'm just a little concerned about the absence of anyone posting. I know that Xeim is busy, but the rest of you must have some free time to post. Hopefully, the RP picks up soon.

[Sinister]

*crickets chirp*

dammit...I end up doing this everytime...It's like I'm cursed. *gets out the defibulator and rubs the paddles together* CLEAR! *shocks thread*

NO!!! DON'T DIE DAMN YOU! NOT YET!


...

Grey's Anatomy melodrama aside. I also wanted to ask about the various arcs that you mentioned, Xeim. I understand you might not want to share full details this early, but give us like a cursory sneakpeek.

I heard something about some sort of human mock Shinigamis. Will that be an arc?

-Sin

[~WP-Night]

Right, just to make sure your not rolling your eyes when I come online, im still here, I'd just prefer to wait for the tests to be over so i dont interupt the flow. Once their finished for everyone then I'll post up the beginnings for the two guys, the one thts a Shinigami and the one that is an Exorcist, as for the girl that'll pretty much be abit secretive, but of course there'll be posts. Ok, just wanted to make sure that you guys knew I was still in the game! Good luck with ur posts everyone!
-WP

[Xeim]

Has one of those anime embarrassment moments....

Sorry I've been out so long (longer than I expected!). Just when I thought I'd get everything done early and come back online...I got sick. I won't bore you with the gritty details. Now I'm in the middle of midterms, so I don't know when I'll be on again after this. I got some time to check in now and jumped at the opportunity. I'm terribly sorry about how long I've been gone. Bear with me a little longer. I'll guide you lot out of test day as soon as I can!

Just to elaborate on a couple questions:

Three: Do they determine the nature of your sponsor and test questions?

No, not really. You decide the 'test questions' you want to mention...or not mention any if that's your style. At least for now. I don't know if I'll be changing how tests work in future. Probably not, though. I might work out any kinks (beside slowness) that arise during this time.

Four: If you didn't put down for instance, Shunpo, does that mean that you cannot flash step whatsoever, or just not proficient at it?

You can still be proficient at it, just not amazingly proficient. If your character's a kidou type who'd rather not use shunpo (even if they're pretty good), don't have them flying all over the battlefield. The major and minors are really just guides. You shape the character the way you want to, even if they change over time.

Also remember that even if I put you in a certain division, you don't have to stay there. I mean, you want to be there a reasonable amount of time, but you don't have to stay there forever. Just PM me a change request. I'll remind you of this when that time comes, though.

Sin, I'm going to keep the arc descriptions as short as I can for now so I don't burn my fingers off. I'm still feeling a little under the weather... -_-

Like previously stated, there are three arcs in progress.

Hollow arc: working title. Obviously, the name won't be as important as what actually happens, but it's still kind of fun. It will be a simple arc. A group of low level hollows will be dispatched to the real world from Hueco Mundo. the mastermind behind the event will be a natural born arrancar. Details of this guy are unknown...but I'll probably end up playing as him for the arc. I believe evangel was thinking about introducing his arrancar character here, perhaps as an aid to us? Details of a final showdown are hazy. I need evangel's information.



Andro's arc: Details of this arc are 'property' of andromeda. I've given him permission to persue this arc based upon a new species. I can't say much more, but tidbits should be revealed to you throughout andro's posts, and we'll present a final plan when the time comes.

Human arc: Uh...this came up near the beginning. The idea was basically that a couple humans would have the ability to see shinigami, see one, and capture it. They'd probably then devise a way to make shinigami and other spiritual beings visible to all humans (that they want to see them). When the existance of hollows comes to their attention, they may even make allies out of them (unsure). Basically, this would be a fight to keep the dead seperate from the living and shake the foundation of soul society. one of those...for the end things. Oh, and the group of humans would probably a government. Whose government...would have to be decided reasonably. ^^; Not Japan. They get the spotlight in this show too often.

That clear things up for you? There really are no "full details" for me to share yet, so I'm fine telling you all I know. Haha. ^_^;;

There was also talk of shinigami that sent souls to hell when they 'cleansed them.' kind of like 'evil shinigami.' It never went anywhere though, so I don't have a plan for it.

Any more ideas are welcome!

WP, thanks for posting your status. ^^

And sin, don't panic if there aren't many posts here. This Rp tends to go through small periods of inactivity. I'm hoping we can fix that after we get people like you and WP in though!

As for my status, I got sick halfway through shunpo and haven't gotten my creative juices working well again. I will try to get it finished in a reasonable time frame though. I don't want to keep everyone waiting.

Whoo. That's all now. I'll be going to stare at a word document now. =P

I've been chatting with Xeim over PM and we've been working out my classes and such. Depending on activity, I should have a post dealing with at least two classes coming by the end of this week or next week. With my time being occupied at school with a Mock Trial Tournament, it doesn't appear I'll be posting this week. I'm not sure.

I hope after we get out of the academy, the RP will pick up and get going a little faster.

Im sorry I havn't posted dudes.

I didn't go online for like a week and a half during my break then when I finally looked at all the posts. I practically passed out when I saw how much everyone wrote down.

So im trying to get down were Im at and how to get where everyone else is at. Plus I got to make sure I do everything in the test that im suppose to do.

Im sorry it's goanna take longer than I thought cause im a slow reader. But i'll do the best I can.

[Xeim]

Oath, make sure to get me what classes you want to take. -_-

And I'm sorry I havent posted as well. I'm going to cut my post short so I get something out. I swear, I seriously want to kill school right now. It's been keeping me from doing anything. -_- I might not be on much this weekend, but I'm going to TRY to be on in the mornings at least. So hopefully you'll see a post from me tomorrow. I'm sorry this is going so slow, but this is one of the busiest times of year for me (and evidently a lot of orther people). Semesters are ending and such, so school's really number one (unfortuneately).

Evangel and I have worked everything for his classes, and most stuff for his arrancar out, so we'll just need to deal with any tweaks as they appear.

I look forward to the end of test day.

EDIT: Andro, I forgot to mention this earlier. I recently noticed that the way you did the shunpo test in your post was not exactly the way I asked for it to be done. Please re-read the test instructions and fix that. I have it right in my post, as well. I'm very sorry I didn't catch this sooner.

I am the king of page 7 in the RP!

Anyways, I just posted for my first two classes. my next post should be two more classes and a break in between. Then I'll get a third post in sometime afterwads. My recent post HAS to be the longest post I ever have posted.
