[OOC] Bleach - Twilight of Humanity

[LaXnyd]

Hmm... I would like to join this RP, but before I do may I ask if arrancars (low level ones, nothing Espada tier) are absolutely forbidden?

[The Grey Dust]

Hello, I was Interested in the thread.
I happen to like Bleach. Currently I am waiting to see what Squad Zero will do.
I was wondering if I could join the thread and if a Fire-based Fullbringer would appropriate:

Fullbring would be a Lighter.
Lighter feeds on already existing Fires as Fuel and absorbs their energy.
Produces different coloured flames for different effects.

White - Flame Explosive (high power technique,completely depletes Fullbring. Not Yet Achieved)
Red- Flame Longsword (medium-high power technique, above average in cost)
Orange - Flame Shortsword (average power, average in cost)
Yellow - Flame Dart (low power, low in cost)
Green - Reishi Absorption (flames consume and store Reishi, flames then can be absorbed back into Fullbring, average in cost)
Blue - Reishi Restoration (flames restore Reishi, used with Green Fire, average in cost)
Violet - Phoenix Flames (flames restore injures by using Reishi of target, used with Blue Fire, high in cost)
Black - Dragon Flames (Links target of Phoenix Flames life-force with this flame. if this flame dies, so does target, high in cost. Not Yet Achieved.)

They are a form of Hollow and thus would not be allowed. The point of this group, at least originally maybe later it will change, is to hunt hollows which will be elaborated more later on. Quincies and Fullbringers are only allowed at the moment. However there is the possibility to gain similar abilities to them later if you focus on your inner hollow power though that might alienate the group especially out quincies.

Very unique idea I like it but remember you're only human in this roleplay So careful not to burn your soul to much.

Name: Merah Liang

Nicknames: "Filthy Hollow Sympathizer" "Traitor" "Probably the Bastard Child of that Traitor Liang and that Arrancar"

Gender: Male

Weight: 70 kg

Height: 170 cm

Age: 20

Languages known: English, Japanese, Mandarin

Appearance:

"Filthy Hollow Sympathizer"

Quincy Ability:

Hirenkyaku: An advanced Quincy moving technique. It allows for high- speed movements by riding on the flow of Reishi created below the user's feet.

Archery: It is the most used form of combat among the Quincy. Since they're still human, maintaining a distance from highly dangerous Hollows as well as launching numerous attacks on multiple opponents gives them a great advantage offensively and defensively. While Merah is a capable archer, unlike most quincies and to completely surprise his opponents he does not utilize this as his main form of combat.

Chinese Martial Arts: Baji Quan: Utilizing his Reishi, Mereh is able to enhance physical strikes with his spirit aura in order to be able to harm his opponents through hand to hand combat.

Reishi erasure: He is able to control his Reishi into levels far below that of a normal human, making him very unnoticable. He does this to sneak around and slip in and out of situations.

Quincy Item Appearance/Description:

Gintō: Gintō are small liquid-filled capsules that store Reiryoku, and are used by the Quincy for spell casting in the same way that Shinigami use Kidō. Like Kidō, they are activated by calling out various commands.

Spiritual/Reiryoku Level: Average

Other Weapons/Instruments/Armor:

Hollow Bait: This item is a small, coin-shaped disk that attracts Hollows when crushed. Mereh uses this in order to force distractions against his pursuers.

Personality: Merah is highly paranoid and takes many precautions to preserve his life, barely trusting anyone. He will often be confrontational and will never trust anyone without proof, always making contingency plans for escape, evasion and killing everyone he encounters. He perfectly understands if this feeling is mutual, for he firmly believes that trust is something that someone must earn instead of being blindly given.

Paranoia aside, Merah is a firm believer of justice, much to the surprise of many. Before trust is earned, Merah has a strictly professional relationship, making only deals and acting only on an equal give and take ratio. However, once he comes to trust someone he will defend them, fight alongside them and work with them. Merah is also a partial pacifist, willing to kill without remorse to protect himself yet he is completely adamant on refusing to kill for any other reason. Even if he sees a hollow attacking a human, the most he will do is enter distraction tactics and give the victim a chance to escape.

History: Quincies already have a rather strange and rather twisted family history with full bloods and unpure bloods making for quite the family drama. At least most of them had a rather stable relation ship. Merah, on the other hand, had a quincy father but it was long suspected his mother was an arrancar. Was it possible? No, not really. Did the rumor mongers and haters care and use that as proof that they should stop using possible arrancar blood within him in order to call him a "bastard child" and smear his very existence? Naw. Haters gonna hate.

Already living under a prejudiced glare, Merah developed into a pacifist - something which really did not help his case. Upon learning the nature of Konso, soul cleansing and how Quincies could not cleanse hollows like the soul reapers could, Merah completely abstained from hollow hunting, refusing outright to kill hollows and instead firing off signals in order to alert soul reapers to their locations. However, his mercy became known amongst the hollows, leading for a few of the intelligent ones to even negotiate and make deals with him.

One such arrancar who came to him was nothing more than a young girl, formerly a powerful arrancar who had been depowered due to combat (much like Nel). She explained how she was being hunted by others of her own kind and Merah agreed to shelter her until soul reapers could come and either deal with her or cleanse her soul. However, his protection over her earned him extreme hate from his fellow quincy, who began calling him "Traitor" and "Sympathizer". However, despite all of their criticisms he persevered in sheltering her.

Then one day, while he was out, another quincy killed her in cold blood, denying her even the chance to have her soul cleansed and enter soul society.

This event caused him to run away from the Quincy, but not before he stole a few items. To this day, the quincy still hunt him. He is currently in Japan, hiding from the other Quincies through skill and precaution, but the time in hiding and the more than few attempts on his life by other quincies had rendered him paranoid.

Other: Used to have a young arrancar as a travelling companion. However, she has long since been slain. Also, unless the fullbringer is able to cleanse a hollow's soul he will actively discourage or even prevent them from finishing off a hollow, urging them to wait for a soul reaper.

The problem I have with your character is simple. Arrancar aren't common to my knowledge and on top of that it is unlikely that they could procreate because you know them being dead. Arrancar to my knowledge are hollows whom have ripped off their masks but that doesn't make them fertile or alive again they just become more controlled and gain more power that doesn't translate into them being capable of being able to make children in my mind. The closest thing that I could do would be for your character to be fathered/mothered by a Fullbringer, a human whom has absorbed hollow powers thus making them most likely repugnant to some Quincies I would think, whom has hollow power inside of them. I'll allow you to keep the Arrancar that you traveled with later in life however.

Also I would like you to remove: Seele Schneider please. You already have a unique ability in your martial arts that our other Quincy do not have. I'm even a bit uncomfortable keeping the martial arts ability to manipulate energy like that but for the sake of being fair I'm allowing it unless others don't like it either.

He doesn't really have an arrancar mother. They just say he does and use it as an excuse to completely smear and outcast him in the family. It's hate resulting from his father being an arrancar sympathizer like he was.

Edit: Seele Schnider has been removed.

[vancexentan]

Alright I apologize it's Twelve in the morning and I'm tired so I'm skim reading.

[LaXnyd]

Already done.

[vancexentan]

Alright now all that is fair enough but now the question comes into mind is why he is going to join our group Lax. He's a bit paranoid and you didn't put in why he accepted the letter's invitation. Plus with the goal of eliminating hollows means that we're most likely not going to be easy on Hollows. If you could work something into your roleplay that would be appreciated. Because while the rp will be taking place all over the world the main center of operations will be in Las Vegas America.

[LaXnyd]

It's possible that he's simply investigating how they managed to track him down to deliver the letter in the first place, which means they found him, which means someone managed to track him and he needed to find out how.

Or he could have simply accepted the letter out of pure curiosity.

As for what he'll do with the group, while he'll be fine with stopping Hollows from attacking people it is very possible he might try and pursuade the group to wait for Shinigami instead of finishing off the hollows - restraining instead of killing - so they can go and have their souls cleansed. He might appeal to their pathos. Failing that, he might even antagonize and work against them, sabotaging their hunts.

[vancexentan]

Well how the person who is gathering us together, let's call the person 'the boss', manages to track him down will be told soon enough in roleplay. As for how he could manage to track the letter down and find out who the person is from an anonymous source from an unknown location is going to be extremely hard so especially with the clear wealth that this person has. he'd have to go along with the second option but he may get suspicious about the other two quincy on the private jet let alone who the humans, fullbringers in actuality, are there for.

As for trying to work against them that'd...end up pretty badly once the boss catches onto it or if the other players even tells that he may be doing so to the boss isn't very forgiving person. It is ok not to agree with what they're doing and disagree with how the group operates but the purpose at the end of the day is to hunt hollows. If you'd like to know more I'll send you a pm explaining to you why the boss knows about the process but doesn't agree with it.

[LaXnyd]

Well of course he won't openly go about it but he will try and dissuade them, appealing to a sense of justice. As for just going along with the letter and getting on a jet, he'll be fine with that. He'll just be ready to jump off into the ocean if necessary.

As for the Boss's reasons in a PM, that would be great.

[vancexentan]

Alright then I'll see if my pm brings up any problems just don't mention it's contents as it contains spoilers.

[LaXnyd]

I am in agreement to everything in the PMs.

[vancexentan]

Alright then I'll accept the character unless someone has a point that I am missing.

[vancexentan]

A quick note feel free to post to those accepted. Pudding/Itano are AFK however and Lex is off on a personal trip somewhere.

[vancexentan]

Just to let anyone who is still in this rp know that Grey intends to get his CS done within the week.

[mattmanganon]

Read your opening post, I read the no-no on Hollows and Shinigami. Would a Bount that survives by eating Hollow souls be allowed?

[vancexentan]

That sounds good Matt. Normally I'd be skeptical but I know you're a good roleplayer.

[mattmanganon]

Character Sheet:
Name: Lita Stratus
Nicknames: Vlad
Gender: Female
Age: ?
Languages known: English, Romanian, Russian, Japanese
Appearance:



Doll name: Käfer

Doll Appearance:

Sealed:


Released:

(roughly 15' tall, with beetle like wings on back)

Doll Powers:

Strengths:
Energy Absorption (Draws all energy out of the space surrounding it around it, particle attacks are absorbed and any and solid projectiles fall out of the air around him as their Kinetic energy is stripped from them.)
Immensely strong and durable (Like all Dolls, he is both immensely strong, and unable to feel pain.)
Flight (Thanks to his big wings, he is capable of flight, not very fast, though. approximately 30 mph)

Weaknesses:
Cannot used ranged attacks whilst absorbing energy.
Must have absorbed considerable energy to use ranged attacks, so sustained fire is difficult.
Energy absorbed is indiscriminate, if Lita stumbles into his absorption field, she will have her energy drained too.
When his energy tanks are full, he is no longer able to use his energy absorption ability, leaving him open to attacks from particle and energy weapons. (In other words, he is actually at his most vulnerable when he is at his strongest)
Though by no means slow, he is rather lumbering, meaning that most other beings will prove to be faster than he.
If Lita is wounded badly enough, he will turn on her and kill her.

Weapons:
Wrist Mounted Shock Cannons (Powerful, heavy duty particle weapons.)
Head mounted Seeker Missile launchers (Rietsu seeking. Locks onto the the highest rietsu signature in the area and follows it to its source. Powerful.)
Heat rays (From eyes, medium powered, continuous beam attack.)
Chest mounted Gatling cannons (High rate of fire, low power)

Spiritual/Reiryoku Level: ????

Other Weapons/Instruments/Armor:
Rietsu gun (A gun that she pours her rietsu into, before firing the equivalent of a level 30 attack spell. Enough to throw somebody off and keep them from getting a clear shot at her, but not likely to end a battle, she relies on Kafer to do that.)

Personality: Lita and Kafer are two pee's in a pod. Lita is the ditzy, fun loving, spirit-vampire with a heart of gold, whilst Kafer is her stoic guardian. Lita, however gets a little overzealous whenever she is around a potential meal... And don't mention Dracula around her, she tends to get a little apprehensive.

History: Lita's start in life is mostly unknown, she has been in juvinile detention facilities across the globe, all of which soon discovered a large hole in their walls, and her missing. All that she will discuss is that, for as long as she could remember, she traveled with a friend of hers that taught her to control her powers. The friend in question is not dead, but they did have to part ways a while back and she still holds him in the highest regard. She formerly feasted upon the souls of the living for survival, but her friend taught her how to survive on the corrupted souls of those bound for hell instead, to grant her leeway with the higher-ups. She has been known to tangle with Shinigami, but usually it's just the one patrol grunt, which is unprepared to face Kafer. And even then, it was usually her friend that dealt with them.

When she arrived in the local town, she was found by the local Fullbringers and brought into the fold, the idea of a girl with a giant golem that eats hollows was rather an appealing prospect to them.
