Bleach: Soul Survivors OOC

[Kurisa]

New members always welcome

The Rules/Description

Just to clarify this IS a free RP and people of all RPing levels can join, don't be put off by large posts, don't be put off if pages begin to pass quickly. Learning to deal with all this is what makes an RPer better. I will happily show anyone an RP with over 10,000 pages that I was apart of. What I am getting at here is you don't have to read every post, you can just ask what you missed when you get back here, this saves you time and gives you more time to RP. If there is a truly important post we will direct you to it. So forget about what everyone else is doing and find someone to RP with and have fun! Crazy RP's are fun RP's although there are a few rules...as with most RP's

A quick note: You don't have to start at level 1 but can't start at level 5-6 unless you are apart of something special. Also forget stats, levels work better. We don't have people saying "my strength stat is higher than yours so I easily over power you" This is both annoying and pointless, A fight is meant to be fun not a competition about who is the strongest. You win some you lose some, leave it down to how you fight to decide who wins.

Note: I want to keep these as simple as possible but if I have to I will write more also any new members who aren't sure about things PM me Kurisa about anything you are unsure about and we can sort it out =)

1. No Trolling, God Modding or anything of the kind

2. Do not! kill anyone's character unless you have asked their permission before hand

3. All Character's powers have to be approved before fighting. (PM me if waiting approval)

4. Romance is fine just keep it to a respectable level. It's Bleach remember and romance is so teased in it...just if it get's to much take it to PM

5. Try keep OOC to a minimum please! OOC is fine but try do it in one post that has RPing involved I know people like to chat here but I want mostly RPing and there will be a separate thread for OOC but that's only for things regarding the RP not a general chat zone. (Roleplayer Guilds rules not mine)

6. RP however you wish just make sure it's understandable

7. You must be in the academy for at least 5 days. If you want to stay longer that's fine. That is if you start in the academy

8. Academy students cannot learn Hado higher than 36 and cannot learn bakudo higher than 40

9. When you Train you can ONLY Train for one Hakuda and Zanjutsu skill a day, you cannot do two Hakuda skills in one day or two Zanjutsu skills in one day but you can do one hakuda skill and one zanjutsu skill a day. You CAN Train for two different kido's a day but no more two at most.

10. If somewhere it states you have to start at level 1 disregard that. You can start at a slightly higher level and in a squad etc. but you will have to PM me so I can give you the position and give you a skill set suitable for your character level

11. Do not create multiple accounts just to make another character. Use only one account

Zanpakuto

(shinigami, Vizards and souls only)

Shikai: You can have up to 8 skills for shikai (if you have a shikai that uses several skills)

Bankai: You can have 5 skills for bankai

Or alternatively just describe what it does

For more information on Zanpakuto's check here: http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Zanpakut%C5%8D

Level System
For all races available.

Credits go to Zukien for this system

Going by levels, all types of players start at level 1, unless otherwise instructed.
Shinigami/soul level system

Shinigami/soul: (Souls also use this level system but they obtain their Zanpakuto's by stealing a Shinigami's by killing them)

Shinigami can increase their power and unlock more potential by gaining levels of power.

Level 1:
A new recruit to the Gotei 13. Usually placed in a numbered position inside of a squadron, determined by their combat proficiencies.

Level 2:
A being that is able to unlock a small amount of power by knowing their zanpakutou's name, but cannot access Shikai.

Level 3:
Able to activate Shikai at this point, the Shinigami can transform their zanpakutou to it's first form and attaining new abilities.

Level 4:
An advanced form of Shikai, the full power of their first activation is achieved, giving more power and devastation.

Level 5:
The unleashing of Bankai has taken place, bringing the users Zanpakutou to it's ultimate form.

Level 6:
Mastery of Bankai is achieved, allowing the use of all Bankai abilities and techniques.

an academy student after graduating should be at level 2
Vizard:

Vizards are only available until after Level 4 is achieved by a Shinigami.

Level 1:
The Vizard is able to form a partial mask upon their face, increasing their power by a fair amount for one attack.

Level 2:
More of a mask is formed on the face, the power bonus increasing as well as the time, lasting for two posts.

Level 3:
A full mask is formed, extraordinarily increasing power, but exhausting the user after it is destroyed, or disappears after three posts.

Level 4:
An extended form of the mask, being mastered only by veterans of the Vizard. Can last up to ten posts and increases power tenfold, however still exhausts the user.

Hollow level system

Hollow:

Level 1:
A Hollow who has just been formed, their human bodies disappearing and replaced with a hideous creature with a white mask.

Level 2:
After devouring souls and increasing power, the Hollow has become faster and stronger, able to take on tougher opponents.

Level 3:
After becoming a Gillian Returning to Hueco Mundo, the Hollow begins to feast upon other Hollows to increase power and begin transformation.
-once level 3 the hollow becomes a Gillian. In this form they are Generally mindless and have no personality so it's up to one of the fused hollows to take charge and try become the main one in control

Level 4:
Adjuchas Menos are only capable of staying in their form by devouring other Hollows. Power, speed, and overall strength increased dramatically.

Level 5:
The Adjuchas, after surviving and devouring, becomes a Vasto Lorde, the strongest type of Hollow. A massive boost to power is taken in.

(NOTE: The evolution speed between Level 3 and Level 4 is much faster lasting only a few days if that! (who wants to play as a gillian for long anyway?)

Arrancar:

Arrancar do follow a level system but this is different to the rest.

Rankings follow

Espada - Strongest of the Arrancars. Ranked 1-10. A 0 Rank is included but belongs to ONLY one Arrancar, most cases the arrancar who is Ranked 1

Privaron Espada - Espada that lost their rank and have been demoted to a 3 digit number. They are weaker than Normal Espada but are stronger than Números

Números - Arrancars given a number at birth from 10 - 99 this indicates their age and mostly their power, but in rare cases not always true as younger Números can be stronger than older Números. The number is given to Arrancar that are just born so the first one born will be 10 where as the 2nd one born will be 11 and so on.
- Fracción - Fracción Are a sub faction of the Números and belong to certain Espada's but this doesn't mean they are any stronger than a Números without an Espada leader

Arrancar are only available to Hollows level 4 or higher. Becoming an Arrancar increases your strength tenfold but becoming an arrancar at level 4 forfeits being able to ever obtain Vasto Lorde form. You must have gained this form before hand if you wish to have something like Segunda Etapa.

Becoming an Arrancar forfeits evolving any further as a hollow, so generally Vasto lorde's that have turned into Arrancar's are stronger than an Adjuchas Menos that has transformed into an arrancar

The new Arrancar is armed with a Zanpakutou that takes the form of almost any weapon, and can release it on command. This increases their strength tenfold, and gives them access to their true forms, giving new abilities.

Quincy level system

(not available yet. Being put in ahead of time)

Quincy:

Level 1:
The Quincy is able to launch projectiles from a makeshift reiatsu weapon. The bolts are delicate, and only able to take out the weakest of targets.

Level 2:
The weapon increases in size, giving more firepower and faster shots.

Level 3:
A max power weapon is available, this weapons form can vary but is solid. traditionally the weapon is a bow but it can vary

Level 4:
Now having gained many different techniques the general power of the spirit weapon/bow are increased even to a point where a bow can create a dangerous explosion

Level 5:
The Quincy is able to expand their power by using a more dated power known as Quincy: Vollständig. It doesn't sacrifice the users power unlike Quincy: Letzt Stil

Human/Fullbringer level system

(Not available yet. Being put in ahead of time)

Humans/Fullbringers:

Level 1:
A reiatsu sensitive Human will see Hollows and Shinigami, and be able to interact with the two.

Level 2:
The Human unlocks their power, able to fight weak beings and stand their own.

Level 3:
As their power becomes greater, they unlock more abilities and potential.

Level 4:
Now able to take on Stronger opponents, humans can be a definite challenge, although they are more vulnerable than others in battle.

Level 5: After continues training with their powers, the human/fullbringer's power has grown to a strong enough level to give even some Shinigami Captains etc. a Challenge but they are still vulnerable

To level up, a person must follow their character's path In Character. This includes fighting, devouring, and discovering new powers. It takes a lot of skill and power to reach the higher levels, the process getting continually harder.

Things such as training, doing missions and so on will help level you up through skill alone

Graduating and getting to level 2

(Academy shinigami only)

To graduate from the academy you must learn some basic things such as Kido, Hakuda and Zanjutsu. Which path you choose is up to you, you can do all of them or just do one of them it's your call but there is a certain amount of things you must learn for each field to graduate and bare in mind you cannot graduate in one day you must be in the academy a minimum of five days so this will be how it works for each field (remember you don't have to do all of them, you can just do one field and graduate on that alone) Also you can graduate and join either: The Kido corps (for those who are unusually experienced in the use kido) or the Onmitsukidō (for those unusually experienced in Hakuda) and then of course the Gotei 13 (for those who are mostly skilled in Zanjutsu) These path's don't have to be followed if you are good in a certain area so if you are good at kido you do not have to join the kido corps and can instead join the Gotei 13. Of course you cannot join the kido corps or Onmitsukidō if you aren't good at either Kido or Hakuda since they wouldn't accept you. Once you meet the refurbishments for graduation you will then take a test that will test you in 3 areas and this can be done over the course of a few days

To graduate using kido you must have learned at least 4 of the 7 hado mentioned below and then for bakudo you must have learned 3 of the 5 bakudo mentioned below

(these hado and bakudo only take one day to learn and at most you can learn 2 a day since you will be wore out by the reiatsu usage)

Hado: 1, 4, 11, 12, 31, 32, 33

Bakudo: 1, 4, 8, 9 Geki, 9 Horin

Info on Kido here: http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Kid%C5%8D

To graduate using Hakuda you must learn 2 of the 3 stated below (these are much harder to learn and require at least 2 days of training on)

Tsukiyubi, Tesshō, Chōhigezutsuki

More info on Hakuda here: http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Hakuda

To graduate using Zanjutsu you must learn 2 of the 3 Zanjutsu techniques (these are much harder to learn and require at least 2 days of training on)

Hōzuri, Shitonegaeshi, Ryōdan

More info on Zanjutsu here:http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Zanjutsu

How to level up etc. (important)

So as most of you can see in this RP we have a level system, For awhile now we have just been training occasionally and waiting for the right time to fairly level up but during all this I have been trying to work out a fair levelling system that does not require me to tell people when they can level up and that's why this is being made. I have explained how to get from level 1 to 2 and as you saw it required you to learn most skills in one or more categories (Hakuda, Zanjutsu, Kido etc.) I did say you could follow one path and this is the fastest way to level up but it has it's disadvantages. I will explain this later. This little section will explain how to go from level 2 to 3 and so on. Also a note here, you must communicate with your zanpakuto spirit to level up the skills and zanpakuto learning go hand in hand for levelling you up, you can't do it on one alone unless in a VERY rare case

To get from level 2 to 3

So first we will look at the fast path to level up (Note: Kido is an example. this can be done with any single category)

Fast Path

So you have just got to level 2 and want to know how to get to level 3 using one path and in this case kido is the example. To level up you will need to learn most of the required skills for the category so this is like 75% of the 100% of skills for that level here is an example

Kido you can learn in level 2:

Hado: 36, 54, 58, Kongōbaku, Gaki Rekkō
Bakudo: 21, 26, 30

As you can see there are 8 Kido's in total here so to level up you would need to learn 6 of the 8 kido's here this could be much like this

Kido's learned:
Hado: 36, 54, 58
Bakudo: 21, 26, 30

If you had learned these 6 or any 6 kido's for that matter you could level up to level 3 but of course going to the next level means you have to communicate with your Zanpakuto spirit and gain some skills from it's shikai. Now the consequence of taking the fast path

Consequence of the fast path

If you have taken the fast path to get to a high level and have learned only one or two categories of skills then the days for skills of a different category take twice as long to learn due to your character not being good in those areas, but you may not even need other skills due to your proficiency in one area.

Simpler diagrams explaining the fast path of levelling up.
Use your head for things such as learning kido and Zanjutsu...learn 75% of the kido for that level and follow what the Zanjutsu chart says. Simple...same applies to any duo

From level 1

l
V

Learn all the Zanjutsu skills for level 1 then make some progress on learning your Zanpakuto's name

l
V

Once done you can go to level 2 and learn all the Zanjutsu skills that need to be learned there.

l
V

When those skills have been learned you can learn more about your Zanpakuto this unlocks a portion of it's shikai. This takes you to level 3

l
V

No Zanjutsu skills for level 3. Learn all your Zanpakuto's skills then move yourself up to level 4

l
V

Then learn the Zanjutsu skill for level 4, work on communication with your Zanpakuto once you have learned the skill for level 4

l
V

Start Bankai training, this will take over a week to do unless done under special conditions. Your Bankai, you should know what to do.

l
V

Once you have finished your bankai training you will officially be level 5, Learn the skill for level 5 then work on full mastery of your Bankai

l
V

Full mastery of your bankai takes an additional week but once done you can finally become level 6. What now?

l
V

Get creative! you're a master in Zanjutsu! Start creating new skills for others to learn! Of course PM me them first so I can give it a green light

From level 1

l
V

There are 12 kido's for level 1, you need to learn 75% of those to get to the next level, so what we do here is say you have to learn 10 kido's for level 1 then make some progress on learning your Zanpakuto's name

l
V

Once done you can go to level 2 and start learning the next level of kido's. there are 7 kido's for this level, you must learn 5-6 of the 7.

l
V

When those skills have been learned you can learn more about your Zanpakuto this unlocks a portion of it's shikai. This takes you to level 3

l
V

There are 5 kido's for this level so you must learn 3-4 of them then learn all your Zanpakuto's skills then move yourself up to level 4

l
V

There are 10 kido's for this level so you must learn 8 of those then work on communication with your Zanpakuto once you have learned the skills for level 4

l
V

Start Bankai training, this will take over a week to do unless done under special conditions. Your Bankai, you should know what to do.

l
V

Once you have finished your bankai training you will officially be level 5, there are 4 skills for this level you must learn 3 of the 4 then move on to work on full mastery of your Bankai

l
V

Full mastery of your bankai takes an additional week but once done you can finally become level 6. Now learn the rest of the kido's. You can learn them all now

l
V

Get creative! you're a master in Kido, Start creating new skills for others to learn! Of course PM me them first so I can give it a green light

From level 1

l
V

Learn all the Hakuda skills for level 1 then make some progress on learning your Zanpakuto's name

l
V

Once done you can go to level 2 and learn all the Hakuda skills that need to be learned there. (if you are a male you don't have to learn Panchira Torunēdo and to make this fair neither do female's if they don't want to)

l
V

When those skills have been learned you can learn more about your Zanpakuto this unlocks a portion of it's shikai. This takes you to level 3

l
V

Learn the Hakuda skills for level 3. Learn all your Zanpakuto's skills then move yourself up to level 4

l
V

Then learn the Hakuda skill for level 4, work on communication with your Zanpakuto once you have learned the skill for level 4

l
V

Start Bankai training, this will take over a week to do unless done under special conditions. Your Bankai, you should know what to do.

l
V

Once you have finished your bankai training you will officially be level 5, Learn the Hakuda skill for level 5 then work on full mastery of your Bankai

l
V

Full mastery of your bankai takes an additional week but once done you can finally become level 6. Learn the rest of the Hakuda skills

l
V

Get creative! you're a master in Hakuda! Start creating new skills for others to learn! Of course PM me them first so I can give it a green light

The longer path (no consequence)

So yes this path does take longer and levelling up also takes longer but there are no consequences to this. I will now go into detail about all this, it should be easy to understand. Here I will use getting from level 2 to 3 as the example

So here are the level 3 skills (all of them)

Kido's:
Hado: 36, 54, 58, Kongōbaku, Gaki Rekkō
Bakudo: 21, 26, 30

Zanjutsu:
Senmaioroshi
Suikawari

Hakuda:
Kazaguruma
Panchira Torunēdo

So these are all the skills level 2's can learn. In total there are 12 so to level up to the next level you would have needed to learn 9 of the 12 stated above. Now levelling up the long way requires you to learn at least one from each category so you could learn let's say 7 of the kido's, 1 of the Zanjutsu skills and 1 of the Hakuda skills this meets the 75% mark for the levelling up and of course eliminates the consequence of having training days doubled. So all in all it is longer but more rewarding, I will post below the total skills for each level and the amount you need to learn but bare in mind you MUST learn at least one from each category for there to be no consequences in the future. If you are confused send me a PM and I will try explain it better

Level 1 skills total count:
Total: 19
Skills needed to pass to next level: 14-15

Level 2 skills total count:
Total: 12
Skills needed to pass to next level: 9

Level 3 skills total count:
Total: 9
Skills needed to pass to next level: 6-7
(there is no Zanjutsu for this level BUT if you have learn ALL previous Zanjutsu skills you may learn the next even if it's a level ahead of your current level)

Level 4 skills total count:
Total: 12
Skills needed to pass to next level: 9

Level 5 skills total count:
Total: 6
Skills needed to pass to next level: 4-5

This is all the totals for the long path. The quick path is simple enough and doesn't really require me to explain further.
(NOTE: Remember in conjunction with this you must learn about your zanpakuto also)

Training/Skills

(For shinigami, Vizard and Souls only. Read anyway)

Training is VERY simple since all you need to do is one post that is at least moderately long so at least 5 lines and onward describing how you were learning a technique, it really is that simple and isn't hard to do. (If you struggle to do this then please PM me about it and we will work out a small limit for you)

Also when training for something can you PLEASE Put something like this in your profile - (Learning. 1/3) the one indicates the days you have trained with that skill and the three indicates the amount needed to learn in (Note: the number of days it takes to learn something varies read about it below) it will look like this in your profile

Hakuda: Tesshō, Tsukiyubi (Learning 1/2)

Still confused? look at my character profile (Kurisa Zakuza) for an example of it

The list below tells you how many days you have to train for each skill and what level you have to be to learn it

Kido

Starting off with kido. Most kido can be learnt in about one day but the higher kido's take much longer as you can imagine

((Note: You can only learn 2 kido's at most a day so once you have learned 2 that is it for the day until tomorrow))

Special Kido's

So as everyone is probably aware there are a few special kido's such as barriers etc. that I have missed out from the list above. There is a reason for this, they aren't relivent to levelling up and learning them is entirely optional but also some require special conditions such as having to be in the kido corps. You CANNOT Just go there and learn them or even transfer from a squad to go there. You have to be accepted from the academy to be able to learn these, they are very powerful barriers etc. That ONLY kido corps shinigami can learn. Now there are some normal Shinigami can learn and below will have them all (most) listed. Some do not have names which is a problem so you will be limited on what you can learn. There will also be a Kido corps list of exclusive kido's below. Also PLEASE check the bleach wiki link I will put under this, it tells you what these do so it is very helpful

http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Kid%C5%8D

Special Kido's All Shinigami can learn

Kyōmon (Level 2. 1 day to learn)

Millón Escudo (level 5. 4 days to learn)

El Escudo (Level 4. 3 days to learn)

Shinpuruna shōheki (Level 3. 2 days to learn) ((Note: I gave this barrier a name, all it does is form a yellow box around the chosen target to protect or trap it))

Kakusareta shōheki (Level 3. 2 days to learn) ((Note: Much like Shinpuruna shōheki it is a yellow box of energy but in this case it forms around the user to hide their presence. I also named this one))

Sentan Hakuja (Level 5. 4 days to learn)

Kido's Exclusive to Kido corps

Hachigyō Sōgai (Level 4. 3 days to learn)

Ryubi no Jōmon (Level 4. 3 days to learn)

Koko no Jōmon (Level 4. 3 days to learn)

Kikai no Jōmon (Level 4. 3 days to learn)

Hoyoku no Jōmon (Level 4. 3 days to learn)

Shiji no Saimon (Level 5. 4 days to learn) ((this kido is generally used for trapping even the most powerful opponents but it requires an incredible amount of reiatsu))

Roppō Fūjin (Level 4. 3 days)

Standing Ovation (Level 4. 3 days)

Goyōgai (Level 3. 2 days)

Hako Okuri (Level 4. 3 days)

these are all for now. More may be added later if I feel there isn't enough

Masteries etc.

Okay this section is going to talk about masteries since there may be some confusion about it all. So if you don't know already there are 4 different categories of skills in bleach for Shinigami/Vizards. These are Zanjutsu, Hakuda, Kido and Hoho. Now most shinigami are best in Zanjutsu and it's expected a Shinigami is to be but there are a few who prefer the use of kido over zanjutsu or the use of Hakuda over zanjutsu. I should also mention it is very rare for any shinigami to master all of these area's and the only one's capable of that are the head captain and just pure geniuses A.K.A Urahara, Aizen (not as smart as Urahara but still)

So on average a shinigami will master...1 or 2 categories and leave the rest out or wont work on them as much. Mastering a category allows you to do one very good thing and that's be able to invent your own techniques and skills for that category (after being approved of course) and this can be very helpful and often give you an edge above other masters. Of course there will be some people who want to master all categories

Shunko!
Shunko is a combination of two categories. Kido and Hakuda, this is a technique that ONLY shinigami will be able to learn, it's like the vizard mask equivalent for the shinigami...well once mastered it may be stronger but then again once a vizard masters their mask they will also be strong so they will work out about even. I had to think up a way for people who didn't want to become vizards but didn't want to get beaten easily by them to get stronger and well this is it...of course down side is if you don't like kido you wont be able to learn this...or hakuda...and you need to master Hakuda or kido and be an expert in the other one you didn't choose to master. Of course a person who masters both will have a slightly stronger shunko. This is basically the shinigami equivalent to the vizard mask...I feel bad selling this out to loads of people but pure shinigami's need a way to be on par with vizards otherwise it's just to unfair...

Now after all that reading and you going "did he have to write so much?" we get onto the next part...where is the limit of expert and mastery? Well below I will put a very small list down and this shows the exact place mastery kicks in on each category.

For Kido
To become a master - Hado 88 and onwards. And for Bakudo 75 and onwards
This is where mastery starts for it so once these have been learned you can be considered a master but of course learning the rest makes you a real master. So if you don't want to be a master stop before these!

For Zanjutsu
To become a master - Agitowari.
This is where mastery starts for this category. So don't want to be a master in this? then stop before this

For Hakuda
To become a master - Oni Dekopin
This is where mastery for this category starts. As I said before if you don't want to master this category then don't learn this and beyond

For Hoho
To become a master - Learn all hoho skills.
Don't want to become a master? don't learn any of the hoho skills except shunpo. Learning even one of the other skills besides shunpo makes you an early master so it's advisable you stop once you got shunpo down

Now the list of full masters (there are ONLY 4 positions so if you want one you have to PM me but if you don't bother to actually aim for it the position will and can be given to someone else who is working for it)

(Note: Vizards cannot have a full mastery position)

1. Kurisa. Character: Kurisa Zakuza
2. Open
3. Open
4. Open

The head captain is not included in this list as he rarely fights and isn't even my main character, he is purely there for back up reasons and to make decisions.

Not to be the one to engage in the raining of parades, but these character names leave room to be desired...

Don't worry I'm going to start filling them in now and all of them will be past captains which will eventually be replaced by us over time. Sorry for all the sudden changes xDD

I know this is free, but can you try to limit OOC stuff to the OOC? It ruins the flow D:
