Hey looks like we got our fire fighter now!

LOL xD

"Damn those pesky house fires"

@Uruvion - I like him, it's good to have someone in the 4th Squad and a water-based Zanpakuto is always nice to have around :3

If you ask me, welcome to our little community *thumbs up*

^ This :)

^ That :)

Shinigami
Name: Hebi Feng

Appearance: Hebi

Age: 175

Race: Shinigami

Rank: 8th Seat, 2nd Squad

Spiritual Pressure Color: Dark Green

Personality:

Hebi is an an extremely self conscious person. He gets embarrassed easily and is very critical of his own abilities. Never thinking he is good enough is the common mind state he has. He desperately tries to prove himself to his older brothers and his sword.

His need for approval from others turns to envy extremely fast. Jealous of the natural talents of others and of the positions his betters hold. Even though he holds these feelings, he doesn’t do much to fix the feelings of inadequacy.

Hebi rarely trains because he finds it tedious, or maybe it is because of all the times he was forced to spar against his older brothers just to get beaten into the dust. Whether it be a lack of will, or from the inability to relive his past, he tries his best to avoid sparring. Even with his newfound drive, he only fights hallows, or when he is on a mission. He must just hate the repetition.

History:

Hebi has spent his whole life thinking he isn’t good enough. He was not an equal to his brothers in any form of competition, so much so that he was shunned. They wouldn’t even acknowledge him as a member of their family. He was so disheartened that he rarely practiced or sparred, he mainly just sat alone and drew in his sketchbook.

This angered his father, being the head of the clan, he couldn’t have sons that were so much of a disgrace, he called upon a family rule that had been passed down from generations. Any member who doesn't pass the test to get into the Onmitsukidō is immediately exiled from the family. Even knowing this fact, it did not spur Hebi into any more training. Luckily enough, he passed.

He was given his Zampakuto, which immediately spoke its name to him, and called out. “Know my name, but this alone will not grant you power. You must prove your worth, to not only me, but to yourself as well. That is the only way I will release any power. Right now you are nothing but an insect, waiting to be squashed. You have no goals in mind. A spec of dust in the wind has more drive. Find something, and bring yourself to chase after it.” And with that it was silent.

Not only did this infuriate Hebi, it saddened him. He had heard about the bonds shared with Zampakuto’s and the stories never went like this. The thing that was supposed to be a part of him had told him he was useless just like everyone else. From this moment on, he vowed to be better than his brother. That was his goal.

Other: Inferiority complex to an extreme.

Shinigami Skills:

Great Reiryoku(2/4):
His stamina is above average mainly from genetics, he could be better honed all around if he attempted to, but sadly this is not the case. He also doesn't have an extremely great amount of control over his spiritual pressure.

Unremarkable Reiatsu(1/4):
Poor Kido Power(0/4):

Zanjutsu Practitioner(1/4):
He uses his sword fairly often, mainly seeking to win it's approval. He will switch to straight up fist to fist combat if the opponent proves to challenging.

Unremarkable Offense(1/4):
Unremarkable Defense(1/4):
Unremarkable Physical Strength(1/4):

Hakuda Master(3/4):
Like all Feng's, Hebi is proficient at Hakuda, although he is not as skilled as many members, he is still far above most in the Seireitei. This is his preferred method of combat, although he will start out all battles with his Zampakuto.

Impressive Offense(3/4):
Impressive Defense(3/4):
Average Physical Strength(2/4):

Pathetic Kido(0/4):
Just like his brother he was tutored until he was accepted into the Court Guard Squads. Beyond his teachings he knows little, other than combat techniques.

Average Intelligence(2/4):
Poor Knowledge(0/4):

Hoho Expert(2/4):
Hebi is a lazy individual, so although he has trained in this art, it was a favorite. He devoted only enough time as necessary for him to perform more difficult Hakudo techniques with his newfound enhanced agility. His flash step is of average speed.
Average Mobility(2/4):

Zanpakuto

Name: Ryuu Tamashī (Dragon Soul)

He isn’t strong enough to know anything but the name of his Zanpakuto. This is a source of amusement of his Zanpakuto, and uses it as a teasing point. Although he has the name, the sword won’t release any of its power, unless Hebi proves himself worthy.

Hooomygoodness.

I really like the idea of this, but I can't help but shake the fact that I haven't read the manga, and I'm worried there might be spoilers for the Anime (I just finished Series 13 part 1) in this RP. (I also get really confused with the Japanese names...) If I were to join, would you kind souls have mercy on a new girl like me, correct me if I'm wrong, etc?

It's also one of the first Advanced RPs I've joined in, well, since before the 'new' RPerguild website came out. So I might be a bit rusty. I'm still pretty tempted to make a captain, at least, to stretch myself. Usually in all of these bleach RPs I go for a simple soul reaper, but today I'm feeling like a leap of faith is required in order to get out of my comfort zone.

Yes, of course we cater for newbies :)

*refrains from rubbing hands together evilly*

... Anyway, we're more than happy to have you on board, and don't be too afraid of the new advanced section (people in other sections like to make us out to be scary :P)
If you need help with anything, let us know, there's always one of us online... Always... we actually worked that out the other day.

We also have a skype chat avaliable, if you have skype that is.

Feel free to add me, CaughtInTheRiddle - and I'll throw you into that.
We're fortunate enough to have a really cool group, and we're still working out the kinks in the plot.

Always accepting, and always happy to help :)

If you're worried about spoilers, I don't think this will spoil too much for you :)

WELCOME TO THE SILENT LEGACY xD

Also.... totally not promoting my super awesome skills or anything, but you should totally go check out the website ^.^

Is this a sort of setting away from the canon story? Also, see above, I edited -just- as you replied.

Yeah, this is set ages after canon, so - most things are new.

Alright, at the moment, only the GM and co-GM's can make captains. You're more than welcome to make a lieutenant, but that lieutenant has to work up to a captains level in the RP, which shouldn't be too hard.

I think we're beginning to work with a Stats system *glares at Yoshua* and if you need help with that, the guru on it is... well, the guy who implemented it, Yoshua.

Don't be discouraged by the no captain thing though! :)

I'm not discouraged (I'm kind of relieved) about the no captain thing. And wow, a stats system? I...wonder how that's going to work and whether or not I'm going to have a mental breakdown using it.

I'll work on a character now.

:)

Like I said, Yoshua can help you with it. I made him do mine for me.

Stats are actually the bane of my existence.

Did you want to join the skype group?

I don't really use skype, so there wouldn't be much of a point~

Hm, I might as well ask now - would you mind if I make a lieutenant for Squad 2? You're the captain, after all, it's only manners that I ask since we probably will be collab-ing quite a bit.

Hmmmmmm, you see, I have no problem with you wanting to make a Lieutenant. However, I'm pretty sure 2 other people are making lieutenants for Arina - so there might be a bit of a fight for it :P

If it's taken, no issue! I'll find someone else to leech off of.

Haha, if you like, I can collab with you for a captain you can leech off :P - the captain will be disposable too, so that gives room for growth into a position of captaincy for your character?

Otherwise Zume needs a Lieutenant.... .... ....

Yeah.... ..... Have fun with him....

Squads available (For lieutenants) are....

Squad 4 (Medical Squad)
Squads 8, 9 and 10 all of which have no particular role
And as riddle says squad 12 (Research + Development) still has a lieutenant place available :)

Either that or 3rd seats are available on almost every squad bar 2, 4 +13

Looking forward to your Shinigami! And don't worry as this is a completely non-cannon RP there shouldn't be any spoilers. I think the only place that would happen would be the Skype chat if we all begin to reminisce :P but since you don't use skype that shouldn't be a worry. Welcome to the RP!

Zume scares the living daylights out of me. I can't even think of a character that would be compatible because...wow.

EDIT: If possible, I'd like to reserve Squad 8 Lieutenant role. 8 is my favourite number, after all.

As for the disposable captain option, that is, in the end, completely and utterly up to you. I think I might make a lieutenant for one of the empty squads - a captain to RP with would be a nice addition, but I cannot force you either way.

Zume scares all of us :P

Also, don't worry about being a tad bit rusty, that's completely fine. We're all friendly here and the atmosphere is quite relaxed, and we'll gladly welcome you to our little community ;)

And if there is anything you need help with - don't afraid to ask. This is pretty much a safe area for spoilers as it is a non-canon story and the stats system is pretty easy to implement as we can help you out with that :)

EDIT: Alrighy then, consider the Eight Squad Lieutenant role reserved.

Absolutely -loving- the attitude in this group, actually, you're quite hard-pressed to find nice people in the internet. (-in- the interne-...you get what I mean, right?)

I'll work on a CS as soon as possible!

I get what you mean :P And I know, the internet is full of trolls, douchebags and Justin Bieber fans *shudders*

You take your time and I can't wait to see what you'll come up with!
