Memories of a Shinigami (Invite Only): OOC

**Dimi** · 05-25-2008, 08:55 PM

After taking with Xeim, Toph, and Sinister on MSN, I've decided to renew my character for the RP. The background of my character will remain the same except for the name I have chosen. Hawo....whatever [I'll call him Hawoherpie] has been changed to Shou Pasu, meaning "Destroy Path".

I've also read the first post that Xeim has posted and I have yet to start training yet which means my first RP post will include my first time at the academy which I will start working on and have it up sometime this week.

**Andromeda** · 05-27-2008, 12:32 AM

Alright, I'm back now. While it might not have looked like I was gone I was actually focused on a writing project of mine to get it finished. Between working 60 hours a week and that I did not really have much else in the way of time. But that is completed so I'm putting all of my efforts back into RPing and getting things up and running on my characters.

I know what I am doing already so that is not going to be a problem. I am working in two other RPs, so I don't know which I will be doing first. I guess which ever I feel that I'm ready for or can get out sooner. But I figure that there should be a post soon.

**Sinister** · 05-28-2008, 11:10 PM

I talked with Toph and thought I would submit this at least for consideration. The following character I created for a NPC to be Haku's direct rival. She kind of grew past that and developed her own backstory and now I wish she were a main character so I'm posting her specifics. If you don't think it's a good idea, Xeim. She can remain a NPC.

Name: Mahonna Kuiki (Portmanteu of Magical and Woman)(town)
Age: 60(appearance 20)
Birthday: April 20th
Birthplace: Seretei
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Blue
Blood Type: O negative
Gender: female
Height: 5'9
Weight: 120
Zanpukto name: Kage Uzumaki(shadow spiral)
Zanpukto element: Vertigo
Occupation: Lesser Nobility
Shinigami fighting Specialty: Shun Po
Shinigami Fighting Minor: Swordsmanship
Standard Specialties: Attack Speed Defense
Personality/Appearance:
Incredibly arrogant, she wisps through the halls with her head held high. She overlooks anything and everything unless it directly affects her. Her motivation is to make captain as quickly as possible. She has worked very hard to be as magnificent at the Shinigami arts as she is, so she feels that all else is beneath her. She feels entitled to the best treatments and offers. Anyone who doubts her, soon come to know just how amazingly powerful she is.

She smokes black cigarettes on occasion and has nothing to do with drink. She is very fond of candied violets and often uses Violets as her emblem.

She has a dark Indian/Arabian complexion and features including a short pen sharp nose. In other respects she has the face of a doll. It is unrealistically beautiful and cheerful to see. Her eyes seem to glow a hypnotic blue. And her confident smile can make anyone lose themselves. She wears a white trailing gii that is a little torn. Tomboyish as she is, dress is not the greatest of her concern. She focuses on her obvious skills.

Background: As lesser nobility that was born from a family that originated in India. She was trained specifically to make captain and raise her family to greatness. She spent tireless years learning all the corners and tricks of the shinigami arts. Her father was once a member of the Chamber 46... Her mother was a lower seat in squad three until she was killed by a hollow. It now lies with her to restore her family name.

**Xeim** · 06-07-2008, 12:47 PM

Sin, I have no problems with that. Are you going to hold off on introducing her until we graduate, or are you going jump right in?

I'll add her into the cast list.

Well, I'm waiting on Evangel's post until I can post again. I do hope things start to pick up. I know summer's coming, and that will probably boost my activity level some. Maybe we can get this moving?

**Sinister** · 06-07-2008, 06:55 PM

She's mentioned in my latest post, but not from her point of view. It might be a little bit before I post from her point of view but most likely I'll shift back and forth from her and Haku.

-Sin

**Victoria** · 06-15-2008, 08:37 PM

What I wanna know is...

When in the timeline is Haru talking to Haku? o_O; Last I remembered, she was at the table with Mai/Shino almost every time. XD

**Sinister** · 06-15-2008, 08:48 PM

Obviously, it's during lunch. I only added it in because it involved Haku(presumably my post happens after her last one), but I posted first. I assume, Xeim will add it in her post when she goes to lunch.

-Sin

**Victoria** · 06-15-2008, 09:03 PM

Oh okay. I was assuming it was sometime during the small flash forward we did. *shrug* xD

That's fair enough. Although I think Shino will be going to lunch as well.

**Sinister** · 06-15-2008, 09:33 PM

I can't wait until Haku gets horribly drunk and runs around chasing people whilst yelling: "BY THE PRIDE OF THE QUINCY I SHALL KILL YOU ALL!!!!"

*sigh* fun times...

Either way, I'm going to get started on Mahonna's first post. I'm thinking about assuming that all that Haku has mentioned has already happened to her, instead of starting over at scratch from her POV.

-Sin

**Evangel** · 06-19-2008, 10:03 AM

Thanks for the rep Xeim. I decided to put in the whole Mugen getting trampled thing to add a little humor to my post. I'm a pretty serious RPer so that was something out of the ordinary for me, but I felt like it was perfect for that little situation.

I have a plan for what I want to happen to Rei and Mugen in the RP. But, uh, how do people in the Soul Society get married anyway? Well, at least, how should I put it in there? That wasn't something I was counting on.

**Victoria** · 06-19-2008, 10:31 AM

You could always say that a wizard did it and that it just happened. *shrug* Just time skip or something.

**Xeim** · 06-19-2008, 01:16 PM

Well, they've never really talked about marriage. I suppose you play around with it and have a little fun with it. Nothing too out there. Though time skipping might be easiest, it sounds like you don't want to do that.

I'm sure Soul Society probably has some sort of minister. Maybe just treat it like a normal marriage. Here's a couple articles on Japanese weddings...as you see in the wiki article, many just have the western style that most of us are familiar with.

Wedding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Japanese Weddings

I'd think Soul Society would probably have something more like the shinto ceremony, but I'm fine with you making the decision. If you want to talk this out with me, you're welcome to send me a PM.

**Xeim** · 06-23-2008, 02:58 PM

Pardon the double post.

First of all, I have now posted. I'm sure it has a million little mistakes that I missed, but I tried my best to edit it. ^^; I wasn't planning on making it so long, but i wanted to get to lunch in it...so I did.

Secondly, I have decided that I am going to begin to compile a list of the sensei of our first year classes. Basic training will not be included. The purpose of this list is to prevent us from having to dig through posts in the thread to find the description of a sensei. We have three more days with them (some of us have two), so knowing who they are, what they look like, what their rules are, etc. is important. I'll include the beginning of the list here, and in the first post. Keep in mind that I will NOT be keeping this one updated, but I will be keeping the one in the first post updated, so check that.

First Year Sensei:

That's all for now. Once again, pardon my double post. I just wanted to get this information out. I do hope everyone decides to post soon. ^^;

**Sinister** · 06-24-2008, 12:12 PM

Are all the courses required? Haku would be horrible at hand-to-hand, for instance, and in the end would hardly justify taking it at all. Just wondering if it works like a elementary school or like a high school?

I should be able to give you a list of my classes for both of my characters with the answer to this question.

-Sin

**Xeim** · 06-24-2008, 12:24 PM

You take all the classes, however their are three different class levels.

C- for those subjects your character is bad at

B- for those subjects your character is average at

A- for those subjects that your character is above average at

I don't have characters only taking a few classes for the reason that the shinigami in bleach all know a little of every fighting style. I hope that answers your question?

**Sinister** · 06-24-2008, 10:50 PM

These are Haku's classes:

Hand-to-hand=C Class
Zampakuto=A class
Shunpo=B class
Kidou=A class
Swordsmanship=A class
History=B class

These are Mahonna's classes:

Hand-to-hand=B Class
Zamapkuto=A class
Shunpo=A class
Kidou=B class
Swordsmanship=A class
History=A class

As you can see, Mahonna is actually the brighter of the two with four A's and two B's. And is prolly the better prospective shinigami. I tried to let the grades realistically reflect the fact that Haku is an amazingly quick learner and that Mahonna had been studying most of her life to enter the Gotei 13 through the lesser nobility. We see who is the best in grades, at least.

-Sin

**Victoria** · 06-25-2008, 06:26 AM

Interesting. Mahonna will be in class with Tamashi, and they'll both be in class with Mai, and Mahonna will be in class with Shino. Cool.

**Xeim** · 06-25-2008, 10:30 AM

Haha, Haru and Haku only have one class together! Haku's got it easy this year. xD Mahonna and Haru have three classes together, though. That should be interesting.

I can't wait until next week's shunpo class. Haru, Mahonna, and Shino all in one place at the same time. O_O People could die.

Anyway, Sin, I won't officially be adding your characters to the "Class Roster" in the first post until test day is over. I already have them saved into the class roster that I have on my computer, though, so don't worry about the information getting lost in the thread.

Thank you for getting this to me, though! It's very much appriciated.

**Victoria** · 06-25-2008, 07:40 PM

Alright. As per usual, I've taken over an NPC character because the original owner is either MIA, or has abandoned the RP/Character. I like her, so that's why I decided to take her under my wing. I'll be configuring and customizing her to my liking in this modified profile.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Fukumi Garu [lit. Hidden Desire]
Age (of death): 15
Current Age: 25
Birthday: October 29
Birthplace: Karakura Town
Hair Color: Flaxen [Flaxen is a pale yellow for those who don’t know]
Eye Color: Green
Blood Type: O
Gender: Female
Height: 5’8”
Weight: 135 lbs.
Zanpukto name: Gekidoukaze no Kamakiri (lit. Mantis of the Fading Wind)
Zanpukto element: Air
Occupation: Sprinter/Runner, Heir of one of the best defense attorneys in the world.
Shinigami fighting Specialty: Swordsmanship
Shinigami Fighting Minor: Kidou
Standard Specialties: Attack, Speed, Endurance
Personality: She likes to gamble, as it brings a flare of risk into her otherwise mundane life. She isn't particularly mean or makes any trouble. She just has an overwhelming sense of curiosity and justice. She also has a particular way of speaking that gives off that she is a trouble maker.

Hobbies: Gambling and using said gambling to make friends. Although in that stance, she usually discovers their issues, and uses gambling as an excuse to aid them or not. It is also used to believe something people tell her. On off times she usually trains in the way of her sword style and goes on nightly runs to increase her endurance and running speed.

Appearance: Medium length flaxen hair, most of the time worn down normally with longish bangs that dangle in front of her face somewhat and sparkling emerald, green eyes which sometimes seem yellow/gold.

Background: She spent her childhood as a princess of a corporation. She learned the way of the sword once she grew up to her teens, in order to protect herself from boys who would take advantage of her. Drama ensued within the family and she made a mistake of gambling with the instigators. She lost the gamble and left her aristocracy and left to wander around Japan. Eventually her identity as a princess faded into oblivion. During school, she was on the bus and died in the accident. When the new season of the Academy started, she signed up for basic training so that she may put her skills to use and hopefully make some new friends. There were two girls in Rukongai that interested her. One was named Haruka, and the other was named Mai, who had a sister Shino that lived in the same body. Mai was the only one that interested her, though. Mai's way of living and manipulating intrigued Garu to the point that she began to stalk her subconsciously. She made a gamble to herself one day.

"That girl is going to fall for me someday." She took out a coin from her pocket and flipped it. She won.
-----------------------------------------------------------

Meh. Screw that. I changed her up totally. >_>;

**Andromeda** · 06-25-2008, 09:15 PM

Xeim I'm going to make another post for Kagashi shortly. I wanted to make sure with you though before I did it since it was going to involve Haruka in it. I figured that I could take the opportunity to grow the bond/relationship that is developing. I've already got in mind what I want to do I just want to make sure that you are fine with me doing up the scene.

**Xeim** · 06-27-2008, 11:27 AM

Andro: Go right ahead. I don't have any problems with it.

Toph: I'll go ahead and link your post in the first page. ^^ I'm glad Fukumi's being brought back.

I'll try to get my next post out soon. Some people are already finished with the day, which is a very good thing. ^^; Some people haven't posted, though. I'm not going to wait on anybody. If people don't post, they miss out again. ^^;

**Evangel** · 06-30-2008, 08:46 AM

I'm gonna try and get the rest of the day in my next post. There's bound to be some mistakes somewhere so be gentle. *Sweet Drop*

Ok... Maybe not the ENTIRE day, but most of it. Once someone else posts, I'll post the second part.

**Xeim** · 07-10-2008, 02:25 PM

Proposal. Please note that the following only applies to the students in normal classes.

I was thinking while trying to write my post today (yes, I'm trying!), that trying to get through all of the classes takes some work. I want to get the basic training students into normal classes soon, as well. Cid has already finished day one, Sin's already finished both days of the first week...their stuff does appear to go by quicker than ours.

Another thing I noticed, is that no normal class students have written for the second day yet. What if we take a day off of classes? The explanation would be simple: the teachers want to devote all their time to grading the potential academy recruits. This would give us a day to freely explore the academy and interact with fellow normal class students...and basic training students on their breaks, as well. It'd also make our day go by faster, as we wouldn't have to write for every waking moment.

But its merely a proposal. If you all don't like it, it doesn't have to happen. But if you do, then it will. =P

**Andromeda** · 07-10-2008, 10:37 PM

Sorry I haven't posted yet Xeim. We went to 70 hours just recently, so I'm literally working 9am-12pm and then I have enough time to read the forums before I go to sleep and repeat the process another day. I'm going to try to get a post out for us this weekend if I can find some time. But I'm only covering the relevant points in the day anyway in the post. So I'm going to skip over everything that does not affect or impact Kagashi. Kagashi is on the second day as well in class.

**Xeim** · 08-03-2008, 01:10 PM

Ok...is there anyone around who's still alive? o_O There hasn't been a post in quite a while. Due to the lack of response about my above proposal, we're scratching the idea. If you don't want to write for all the classes, just write a summary for the day. I'm not going to force you to do all the classess everyday. I'd just like you to do all of them at least once.

Just so you guys can see where everyne's at:

Andromeda--> Finished week one.
Sinister--> Finished week one.
Final Fantasy Cid--> Finished day one.
Xeim--> Finished day one.
Evangel--> Finished with Shunpo
Yuuki--> Finished basic training swordsmanship on the first day.
Toph Bei Fong--> Normal classes: finished hand to hand on day one; Basic training: has not posted.
Fishie--> Has not posted.
Oathkeeper13--> Has not posted.

Blue indicates that the poster needs to wait before beginning the second week; in other words, they're waiting on the rest of us.

Orange indicates that the poster really must get around to posting soon.

Red indicates that the poster really needs to begin posting, as we are not going to wait on them.

--

So that's that. As you can see...most people haven't posted a lot. I understand classroom scenerios can get boring, but oh well. No one complained before we were in over our heads. =P Make them fun. I don't care if you even go and blow up a building. Just...don't kill anyone. With that said...of the members listed above, which I'm currently considering "active," how many are still around?

Andro, Sin, you guys are good. Obviously, you're the only ones who've made it through the week. And, I know Toph's working on a post. As for the status of everyone else...care to enlighten?

**Andromeda** · 08-03-2008, 07:40 PM

Oh, I was actually considering making another post once I was finished with my other RP post that I'm making. But if you want me to wait then I can by all means. Though I could do some exploration with Steph while he is on his journey of meaning. ^^;

This is probably late since its been like a week or two since I posted. But about all I heard about my post was via Shadow. Hope you were alright with the incident that I made between the two of them. I was pulling on some standard anime cliche to try to add a little laugh in what was otherwise a very depressing moment to write about. It was difficult to gauge your impression from him, but I would like to hear from you if you wanted to talk about it. It sounds like a number of different things are going on and the little bits I'm getting from Shadow sounds like you have new plans.

Oh and I don't think anyone's posted in the Bleach club since I did last. ; ; I was hoping to be able to post about the last couple episodes, but no one took the discussion bait I left. :/

**Xeim** · 08-04-2008, 06:16 PM

Well, I have no problems with you writing for Steph since he's off on his own schedule, but leave Kagashi be for the time being. ^^; I'm not going to wait for everyone to catch up, as that'd just pause the entire RP again, but I'm going to wait for the really active members to catch up or at least get close.

And, sorry I didn't comment on the incident. I had a lot on my mind. ^^; I really did like it though, and plan on writing Haru's view of it in my next post. I don't know when that'll be...but I plan on making it soon.

Also, Andro, just message me on AIM sometime when you're around. I might be there but not paying attention. ^^; If I see you, though, I'll be sure to send you a message.

As for the club..I proposed at least two discussions that no one responded to. >_>; I'll try to get a response out for yours soon, though.

**Sinister** · 08-09-2008, 12:14 PM

This RP is really getting fun. In fact, I do think this RP is the most fun I've had in quite a while. But, participation by four people is...well. Is there anyway we can PM the others before we move on without them or just to reestablish communications?

-Sin

**Evangel** · 08-09-2008, 01:59 PM

I'm REALLY sorry for not posting as of late. Things have been a bit chaotic around here and so I have not been on as much as I would like to. I'll have a post finished by Monday that ends my first day of classes.
