Memories of a Shinigami (Invite Only): OOC

Haha, sorry I haven't posted guys...but it's not like I can post when I'm not logged in O_o I always come in here to answer questions almost as soon as I log in, so if something hasn't been answered it means I haven't been online.....

Anyways, for the zanpukto's, and I thank you for bringing this up with Vicky, Andromeda or I wouldn't have beeen asked the question...and I wouldn't have thought about it till later....Well I thank both Andromeda and Great Writer Vicky....oh nevermind this is off subject.

Anyways, I'm going to take a quote straight from Wiki here:

Quote:

---

The most prominent supernatural power possessed by a shinigami is their zanpakutō, a supernatural sword generated from the shinigami's soul. Shinigami also naturally give off spiritual energy, which varies greatly in magnitude with the strength of a shinigami. A zanpakutō is a physical manifestation of this force concentrated into a blade.

---

I don't think that it would be possible for the shinigami to hand you your spiritual energy. O_o

Now, for what we're doing, I haven't worked the details out for, but I'll get to that ASAP. Basically, we'll do sort of a training excersice to seperate some of our spiritual power from our body, and (probably with some help) concentrate it into a blade. Now, it sounds tough...,and it probably will be...but who said it had to be easy? If a zanpukto is part of our soul, then we have to kind of...draw it out, haha. So, I'll work out the details of this process later.

-So we'll actually be making our zanpaktou out of our own spiritual energy? Well I guess that'd explain why our zanpaktou's can be repaired and still have the same ability. I'm personally fine with this idea.

-Oathkeeper, I'm still brainstorming some ideas. I should have something ready to pm you tomorrow. Sorry if I've kept you waiting, I've been busy going places. And since I'm now typing with one arm, it makes things harder. >.<

No problem Kuradic.

As for the swords, we half to get them from are very sould. Thats what a zanpakuto is. Soul Reapers materialize spirit energy from their own souls into a zanpakuto. They use the power from within.

So I have a question. The zanpakuto's are derived from our own spiritual energy, I get that. But do you already have a sword and then your spiritual energy is transferred into that or is it like the entire making and looks of the sword are all made from spiritual energy? In others words, you dont have a sword, then poof, your spiritual energy creates one?

The whole thing is made by our own spiritual energy.

...I thought you said you got that? >.>;

Well, do you know what I think? (Well am gonna tell you anyway :P) I think that, perhaps, for normal, non-Ichigo people, a sort of, 'Hologram' of their entire spiritual energy or pressure, is taken out, and then, perhaps a seal is required, as in an actual seal, maybe made by the personal Shinigami or another, differntly powered Shinigami. Then, perhaps it is sealed, with the will of the spirit that it takes on and becomes the sword accordingly. Thats how I see it anyway, it just doesnt seem interesting if suddenly, your walking along and you feel you need to actiuvate it, so you just do and it appears. :P

And sure, you can say that Ichigo's did, but perhaps it was because his soul was turned into a Shinigami's through a release of his spirit, so maybe his Zanpukto did too, or even maybe because his soul was released by a Zanpukto that had already been sealed from someone elses spiritual energy. There could be hundreds of reasons why Ichigo's did, but unfortunately I lack the intelligence of the writer or the patience to look through every scenario. :lol:

But I'm positive Xeim will come up with something far more interesting than, "Oh! My Zanpukto's here! My, isnt my souls power postage service quick at delivery?". ^^

well thats not exactly what I meant but thanks. ^__^;; i meant i got that the sword had spiritual energy but i didn't know that the entire thing was created from that. Err... it doesnt make much sense but oh well. lol... sorry. >.>

And Waterprince, thats very interesting, indeed. Hmm, it makes sense at least to me. Very cool. ^__^

Waterprince's thing actually made no sense at all to me, and sounded very complicated. =\

The Zanpakutou is created from our spirit energy. The whole thing. Xeim already said that there'd be some sort of class that teaches us to create it.

So let's leave it at that.

Jenova, not to make you feel dumb or anything...but.....it does say right there that the zanpukto is a physical manifestation of a shinigami's spiritual energy. Making it made of spirit eneregy. O_o

Thank you for reading my post. It is at the top of the page....right? *scratches head*

And no, if you actually READ MY POST then you'd see that I didn't think that'd you'd be walking along and then...poof. It's there.

Thank you WaterPrince. (not sarcastically which is how that sounded now that I think about it...O_o)

But anyways, I like parts of what you said WaterPrince. It was very complicated, but I'll keep all that in mind as I come up with a way we're getting it. If anyone has any good ideas that don't seem stupid in any way go ahead and PM and perhaps I'll use part of it.

But...remember we won't get our zanpukto's for a while. I'm going to make our characters be able to pass a "Zapukto Theory" class first. I may reveal the ritual for the first time in that class, and I may reveal it in the OOC. We'll have to see.

EDIT: Great Writer posted before me and said all of that in simpler terms. ^^; Thank you Great Writer...heh.

--Snowy--

@Great Writer VIcky: Ok :P

Meanity rising i see ^^ I was just giving an example, mostly relating it to Naruto scenarios though, haha. Like the sealing of weapons in a scroll and such, so maybe that occurs similiarly with the Zanpukto. But I suppose it makes it more personal if the user trains and figures out how to do it themselves.

EDIT: KK Xeim ^^ Sorry for causing trouble, I suppose :lol:

Right... >.>.... sorry about that. But thanks Xeim, anyway. >.< I'm sorry I just didn't really understand. Considering I'm not one who watches bleach and really knows much... but yeah... this:

makes more sense to me now. Sorry for being dumb... >.>

Let's break how a Zanpaktou is formed. Let's start with how Ichigo obtained his.

Being a human with heightened spiritual awareness, he had all the makings of a shinigami. High spiritual pressure & a lot of combat experience. All he needed was the power to destroy Hollows and a spiritual form. This is where Rukia came in. She transfered some of her power to him, but he couldn't just use her Zanpaktou, right? Well when Rukia's power was given to Ichigo, the Soul Reaper power to destroy Hollows was given to him: in the form of his enormous Zanpaktou.

(Forgive ,me if I'm ranting.)

Now the way I see it, first Soul Reapers would have to learn how to create a physical manifestation of their spiritual energy. Like how in Renji's flashback, it showed him create an orb of energy. When a shinigami does obtain his/ her Zanpaktou, someone gives them the power to slay Hollows, they help draw out the Zanpaktou from their own soul.

Or, I could just be ranting. Idk...

That's been said multiple times multiple ways in posts that are available for the reading. >.<;

Since I know what I want to do with it, we're going to drop this subject now, but Andromeda, thank you for bringing it up.

I'm working on another post and I should have it finished soon. I was going to finish i yesterday, but I had kind of a bad day ^^; so I'm going to try and finish it today once I'm fully awake.

@Xeim: Spells for all of my characters have been added to the prfoiles on page 14 ^^. Hope you like 'em! :D

Oh, and my post is coming along great ^^ I'm just making sure it makes sense. So it'll be posted up within the next day, give or take a half :P

I just wanted to come here and post a few things. Some non-related rp things and some related things.

First of all, to all Bleach Club members, I'm sorry to have not posted in quite a while in both the Club & RP. There's been a few things going through my head lately and I cannot think really think straight into the RP's.

Second, all-in-all I've been reading the Bleach Rp and it has lead me to say one thing: Godame I'm far behind. For some strange reason that's quite inexcusable, I was lazy? or a better word to put it, procrastinating. Trying to avoid TFF with... oh nevermind...

In conclusion, I've pretty much re-read the whole Bleach Rp OOC and read thorugh every bit of work made by the members in the Rp. This has lead me to say that I apologize for not being responsible enough to take in action, or atleast being active.

Since the zanpakutohs are the physical manifestation of a Shinigami's spiritual energy, this means the Academy cannot simply hand you a randomized "katana" hoping you'll learn its name. With this being said, I'll try to get back into the Rp'ing business as soon as I can.

WaterPrince: Those kidou spells are very nice from what I can see, though I'd appriciate it if you indicated whether they were Binding or Destructive. Though it may seem obvious to you or others, I definately do not want to misread you. Once I have that information I'll try and edit them into the first post so all the RP members have easy access to them. No need to explain the already existing spells you mentioned, however. People can easily access them already.

That information goes for anyone else who wants to make kidou spells.

Mr. Sandman: Good to see you finally motivated youself enough to tell us what's been going on. I hope to see you back in the RP soon. However...if you have in fact read the thread...you would know that we have already well-covered the subjects of zanpuktos, and the next mention on how we aquire them will be when my method is complete.

Thanks all,

--Snowy--

-Hey guys/girls, I'm SO sorry I haven't posted in a while. Luckily however it doesn't seem I missed too much. But to sum it all up, I wasn't able to connect because of a breakdown in internet connection. Happened with several other houses>.<

-I'll try and get my post in today. Sorry Vicky if our interaction went wrong with me being gone. I'll get right to reading the RP.

EDIT: It seems some inactivity has come into the Bleach RP. Where is everyone?

Why hasn't anyone posted in the RP? I really want this to continue.

Edit: Sorry for this short post.

I was waiting for you, Kuradic. But since you don't want to collab our little bout, I'll have to do it myself. I'm writing the post right now. Instead of complaining of inactivity, make a post. But since Jecht already posted, well,

We -were- waiting for you, Kuradic, but not anymore. >.>
You take too long. =P

Edit: It has also only been 3 days. Settle down, Jecht. >.>; It's not like the RP is at an important climax or anything like that anyway. I don't know why you're so eager. You're just interacting with yourself anyway. You can do that any time you want. =P

I was pretty much waiting for them to finish there little fight that they were going to do. Once they finished it I was going to move things since the training for the day would be finished at this point.

I had offered to do something with someone since I had finished up some of the things that I had planned. But there was no one that took the offer. Either way, once Shadow makes his post I'll be making a post.

-Yeah sorry I didn't post last time. I was kinda busy that day. Most of it was trying to find a decent present for my brother's birthday. I read your post also, and I like it except for one part. The part where I say "bitch." I don't really think that goes with how my character acts. But I guess it's fine for now. I just don't want him to cuss too much. I WILL get my post in by tonight. Also I need to pm you about something.

-Trying to get Suzu back...

...Are you serious? Your character screams badass. I've studied how he acts and his mannerisms.

I'm not a noob writer that doesn't know how people act. Sure you don't have your character cuss, but it doesn't mean he doesn't. Though I'll edit it and respect your wishes.

-No no no. He does cuss. Just not so often. It's ok that that "bitch" was there. I was gonna make my character call you a whore anyway. :/

There's no need to fear, Andromeda! Mai will eat breakfast and talk with Haruka for a bit and then Shino will save Nyuu-chan! Just you wait and see!

^-^

heheheh woah there take it easy.

My RP was a little to small. Well comapred to Andromeda geez.

I take it were all in the cafateria now right.

No. Andro isn't, obviously. Nyuu-chan is too busy getting bullied. Shino hates bullying. *glare*

Well most of the people have not posted yet to be in the cafeteria, but that does not mean that they are not necessarily there. The only confirmed people in there are Haruka, Kaiigaiishi and yourself. I am of course not in there and the others it is up to them unless someone ends up placing them in there.

But its alright Oath, you don't have to compare your posts to mine. I'm always long winded in my writing. That was pretty short for them, I did not have a lot to say. It would have been a lot longer as I had other things in mind, but that got put to a halt since I have to wait on Suzu to post in respond to Xeim's post. So the majority of what I wanted to do got chopped off until that is finished.

Where is Suzu anyway? He is not even caught up in the post for the character. His last post left him behind in time to where everyone else was. You're a popular man Suzu everyone wanting to chat with you.

-Lol Suzu is busy playing Gun Bound and worrying if he should ask a girl out or not... Anyways I'm chocking him a bit too hard, I think I knocked him out... If he's alive tomorrow I'll make sure to tie him down in a chair and sit him down at the keyboard. You should see Suzu in school, he's the most ignored person there>.< No I'm joking, I rarely see him at school.

-Lol Vicky I need to ask you something again. I'll pm you later.

I find reading books a big help in my RPing. It gives me ideas as for what I could develop my chararter into or a few new words to use. I myself have been reading the Dragonlance novels and I believe that they are the single most influential material in my posts, aside from RPing with people like Andromeda. But alas, after finishing Test of the Twins, I have only read six of 190 collaborated novels in the Dragonlance universe. Gotta get a job...

As for my next post, I think I'll join in the cafeteria. I'd like for my charater to have a little interaction with the others. Y'know, besides chatting with my NPC Rei, which, if you think about it, is actually me talking to myself.

I didn't get too carried away when "fighting" the bullies, and I hope I got Steph's mannerisms down accurately. ^^

Let me know, Andro.
