@McNephelim Sure. You've yet to post so I can view and accept changes. Just gimme the details here or PM.

Bleach - Resonant Souls

@LadyAnnaLee Oh, I suppose it would be a little important for some. Weekend.

@WSilversun@LadyAnnaLee@Morgannis@McNephelim@BladeSS4@SleepyWrites@Letter Bee



Oh also the RP started.

That's important too.

For now introduce yourselves and your characters.

Sagamiyama

Late Evening

---

Night fell upon the small Japanese town tucked away in the central mountains of Japan, the cool breeze of the waking Spring undercut the heated tones left behind by the warm day. The smell of flowers still lingered in the refreshing night air, yet those who could see the unseen would feel unease stemming from below the surface. Shadows lurked at every corner and the watchful eyes of those robed in black would take notice, the unwary and the inexperienced would expose themselves and be cut down in the street, and then disappearing like ash in the wind.

Yet those that did not expose themselves, would become a looming threat that could yet be identified. Each night, signs of such would increase in frequency, the shadows that suggested a hidden foe, the leftover carnage of another hunter amidst the town's open streets, and the fear expressed by would-be prey. There was something more than just the usual quarry.

Sagamiyama

Saturday - Midday

---

The small Japanese town of Sagamiyama had a population of around 300,000, it was situated somewhere in the Chubu region closer to the Kansai region. It boasted a beautiful mountain view, traditional shrines with history, and an easy trip to Kyoto, Osaka, or Tokyo by shinkansen. It was far enough away from the big city to be a quiet, peaceful town, but also has great access to the amenities and luxuries of those very same things. Truly a gem of a place to live.

Over the last few months however, a select few who had a run-in with death itself, were given a second chance, in exchange their souls and their lives were dedicated to helping the other realm, the afterlife, as substitute Shinigami they would help souls move onto the other world, and slay Hollow who threatened to devour them. Shinigami from the world beyond, Soul Society as they had called it, were there to assist and teach them. When needed for their duties on short notice, they would take a Konpaku that implanted their bodies with an artificial soul to act as their living counterparts, while their skills were needed elsewhere, and after such they would simply return to their normal lives.

Today was peaceful, a day to enjoy, because when night came, these fledgling substitute Shinigami would be forced to embark on a journey that had been forced upon them the moment they accepted the offer. A fate that may affect the three realms.

The Beginning

Introduce your character's day to day life here. If you want to interact with the two Shinigami let me know. Shouko works at the flower shop, and Ouga is a mechanic.

Naturally, feel free to interact with each other. Everyone's character by now should have met each other at least in passing. Each of you may have either been separately trained or partnered up for some Hollow hunts while under supervision.

You all would have become Shinigami at different time too. So long as you have been a Shinigami for more than a week, and less than about 3 months ago, you're ok.

There will be an update later for the RP to really begin. For now I'd like everyone to introduce who their characters are as people living in this town.

I may begin the RP this weekend just to get everyone's characters introduced into the setting. If there's a certain way you want to be introduced, let me know.

For anyone still finishing their characters, fret not. The RP's doors do not close when it begins. You may still complete them as the RP is going.

There'll be a general guideline eventually, but I'll assign them myself for now.

At the moment, not many actually use it as it's quite early. The system kicks in for more powerful stuff that may only see a couple or a few uses at a time.

Bleach - Resonant Souls

@WSilversun@LadyAnnaLee@Morgannis@McNephelim@BladeSS4@SleepyWrites@Letter Bee

New system information! I'd been thinking of how to work with Reiatsu, and here it is.

This is all in the first post of course, but I'm posting it here for everyone to see.

Reiatsu and Reiryoku

REIATSU & REIRYOKU

Reiryoku or spiritual power is the total amount of spiritual energy your character possesses. There are two ways to become incapacitated in this RP, one is being defeated and succumbing to wounds, and the other is running out of Reiryoku. Reiryoku can be expended to boost Strength for singular actions, and is used for particularly powerful techniques and Kido (not all techniques and Kido spells require reiryoku usage).

Reiatsu is your general aura, and spiritual pressure, the amount of pressure your reiryoku puts out. The more reiryoku you possess, the more of it spills out of you constantly as reiatsu. It can also be actively boosted by focusing entirely on its output (this does not spend reiryoku).

One big benefit of Reiatsu is that the value of your Reiatsu is how much you can spend on Reiryoku actions for free. For example, if your Reiatsu is 50, then you can use 50 Reiryoku for free granted the action does not exceed it. If it does exceed your Reiatsu, you will pay the cost minus your Reiatsu.

Examples

Scenario (Strength boost, free)

• Reiryoku: 1000
• Reiatsu: 200

Desired Action: Spend 200 Reiryoku to boost Strength

Result: Reiatsu is 200, this action is free

---

Scenario (Kido with higher cost)

• Reiryoku: 2000
• Reiatsu: 400

Desired Action: Cast Soukatsui for 600 Reiryoku

Result: Reiatsu is 400. 600-400=200. Only 200 Reiryoku spent.
