Too many times have I let games die for one reason or another.  Either RL got in the way, I got or others got sick, or it was always SOMETHING.  It's rather disheartening, to say the least.  I'm going to try to do one more group game and lose my oldest of the bunch since by now I'm sure everyone's gone and disappeared from it due to inactivity and my being a slow ass about getting it going once it had started to slow down due to some personal issues of mine at the time.  (Won't go into details here.)  If this doesn't work out, if it dies for whatever reason before it's had a good run, then I'll most likely give up creating games for a while and just focus on some solos and whatever games I signed on for, as well as my first fanfiction effort I have going on Fanfiction.Net  However, if I DO manage to get a Big Group Game once again, then my confidence as a GM will be back up where it belongs and I won't have looked like an ass for screwing up yet another game lol.  Joking and self teasing aside, let's see what I can cook up this time!

Current inspiration is provided by the following...


As I've mentioned before, I've gotten into Fanfiction.Net, a site dedicated to those that love their fandoms and loves to write about them.  I myself have started a huge undertaking in putting the epic sci fi universe of Mass Effect together with the fantasy goodness of DnD, or more specifically the Forgotten Realms since that's where most of my knowledge lies when it comes to fantasy.  Anyway, I recently read a story, while not the greatest I've ever seen on there, (not by a long shot really,) where the author had crosseover Persona 4 with Bleach.  The idea is quite sound, I will give you that, but his inability to really write a long, engaging story given his lack of details and what have you, at least it seemed that way to me, made it entirely too short.  My review aside, I do hope to make this idea into an RP of the likes rarely seen here on E.  I have yet to see a crossover in all of my time here, so you can call me a pioneer if ya like lol.  Joking aside again, what say you boys and girls?  I'll let that stew for a bit and see what comes about tomorrow when I'm actually thinking straight again lol.

Before I go though, here's what I had in mind.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Investigation Team.
From left to right.
Teddie, Yukiko Amagi, Rise Kujikawa, Yosuke Hanomura, Naoto Shirogane, Souji Seta, Chie Satonaka, and Kanji Tatsumi.

Upon their death at the hands of Izanami-No-Okami, but not before Souji Seta delivered a fatal wound to the goddess of the Underworld, they didn't expect what happened next.  Not in their wildest dreams could they have imagined waking up in a whole new world where death was just the beginning of another adventure.  Even so, where one path ends, another begins, so too can the same be said when an old enemy resurfaces thanks to a threat born from their new lives as powerful Shinigami, provided they actually survive long enough to master their new powers fused with the old they once possessed in the world of the living.  Can they reach out to the truth once more and find that strength that had bound them together as it had once before, or will the fog consume them and everything around them when the enemies of the past collide with enemies in the future, and two worlds collide in ways that could tear apart every reality?  Fate's hand is not always kind, and the cards do not always tell as they should in such cases.  Preparing for everything is the only way to succeed this time.

The standard rules and powers for Bleach apply, as does that of Persona, except this time the Persona is the sword all Soul Reapers carry.  Because of two worlds colliding into one as it sounds, powers will also change so there's a lot of room for creativity here, so long as you stay true to whatever you decide to do.  You don't have to be canon by any means, that was just my opening statement lol.  The gist of things here is that if you're a Persona user, then when you fall and are sent to the afterlife, you're already packing quite a bit of power, depending on how strong you were in the world of the living anyway.  You have to learn your Persona/zanpakuto's name again just like a Soul Reaper though to unleash its true might and power, but how you do it is totally up to you.  Knowledge of either fandom is a good idea to have, but it is not required since I always provide wiki and youtube links if nothing else.  Anyway, what do you guys say?

A few side notes.

1;  I have only seen the anime for Bleach, and unfortunately not the whole series either.  Even so, I know more than enough to be able to run this game in the Bleach universe with a few Persona users thrown into the mix.

2;  I would prefer a balance between Persona and Soul Reaper characters.  The rest can be NPCed as the need arises.  As for when this is set, I'll take a few ideas but I think I'd probably have this set shortly after Aizen betrayed the Soul Society.  That'll give us a ton we can use in our RP along with original ideas as well but again ideas are always welcome.

3;  I will accept no small one line posts, nor will I accept anything less than five sentences a paragraph from anyone on a regular basis.  That means you need to be at least somewhat confident in your ability to write longer posts and what have you if you wish to play here.  Grammar is also a bit of a prerequisite but a few mistakes here or there is ok.  I'm not a grammar nazi by any means, but neither will I stay silent if I see half your sentences having multiple mistakes strewn throughout the whole post.  I can understand limited time and what have you, but if you wish to post, I just ask that you make a solid effort to make it worth the trouble to read, that's all.

4;  This will be more story oriented.  That doesn't mean there won't be romance or anything like that, but I'd rather not have it be a sex fest from the get go lol.  I have nothing against smut by any means, but I just prefer story over sexy time.  :P  There will also be fighting and like any good Bleach episode, blood and injuries are to be expected, but what would have killed a normal person in the world of the living will most likely just piss off a Soul Reaper lol.  Joking aside, player death won't be happening UNLESS you wish it to happen.  Otherwise, NPC cannon fodder are and likely be sacrificial lambs from time to time.   >:) >:) >:)

5;  My rule for canon characters, should anyone choose to go that route, is that as long as you stay true to what they are at the beginning and change at a reasonable rate, I will allow you to have them.  Otherwise, if you're uncomfortable playing with a canon character from either world, then you are more than welcome to stick with just your original people as you wish.

6;  The Thirteen Court Guard Squads will play a heavy role regardless since they are the military and defensive force for both the Soul Society and the world of the living.  So, if you wish to try to get your character into a leadership position, there are certain rules that are in place that I will be enforcing.  More will be explained on this later, but suffice it to say, NO ONE unless you're playing an already established character in such a rank, will be higher than the rest.  For more information regarding ranks in the Soul Society, look into the Gotei 13 or the 13 Court Guard Squads.

7;  I forgot to mention this but I allow people to play two characters max for most of my RPs.  Considering there are so many canon characters for this game in all different walks of life from Ichigo Kurosaki, Substitute Soul Reaper that he is, to actual Soul Reapers that have passed on already, to the Arrancars and Viserods, it'd be unfair of me to limit everyone to just one person wouldn't you say?  When we get to each specific 'Arc' or story series, you'll be given the chance to trade out for your more personal favorites if you so wish, regardless if you're playing one or two characters.

8;  HAVE FUN!

And now, a word from our respective wikis lol.

http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/Bleach_Wiki  Bleach wiki

Ok I lied, here a character sheet.

As a side note, there will be no jack of all trades.  You are either good with Kido, Hakuda, or Hoho.  Zanjutsu is a must for all Soul Reapers/Persona hybrids however, but your skill level is up to you regarding your sword abilities.

Name;  (First and last name, in that order.)
Gender;
Age;  (No younger than 18.)
Appearance;  (Pic or written or both, it's all up to you.)
Orientation;  (Straight, bi, etc.)
Canon or original?  (Canon, stay true to what is there already, but if original, feel free to do as you like within reason.)
Persona user or Soul Reaper?  (If a Persona User, include when, where, and how you died in your history/background information.)

Persona User info only;

Name of Persona/Zanpakuto  (For a quick example, should you have gone with Izanagi, your sword would also be called Izanagi.)
Arcana Classification;  (One of the majors or lessers, it's all up to you.  Just be sure it matches your personality.  Each Arcana also has Persona specific to that area, so be careful of that as well when creating this part.)
Power before your death;  Lightning based attacks, fire, etc.  You don't have to list the skills by any means, but it helps to have a comparison to go by.)

Back to Black
Shikai;  (Unsealed form of a Soul Reaper's weapon.  Each has a command word or phrase, and each has a power related to them.)
Bankai;  (The complete form of a Zanpakuto.  This is the hardest level to attain, but once you do, you are venerated as a top level Soul Reaper.  Your Bankai is related to your Shikai, except the Bankai is the ultimate form of your power.  There are rumors however of an even greater power beyond Bankai, but it is unclear if it is true.)  ((We all know differently though don't we?  Lol.))
Specialty;  (One of the three stated earlier.  Zanjutsu is a requirement of all Soul Reapers.  Kido, Hadu, and Hoho however, are not.  Choose carefully.)
13 Court Guard Squad position;  Everyone will have a place.  Either one of the seats below the captain, the lieutenant spot, or even the honored Captain seat.  However, anything above one of the Seats will have to be ran by me unless you're doing a canon Soul Reaper captain or their second in command or whatever.))
Personality;  (No less than two paragraphs of five sentences a piece.)
Quirks;  (Optional.)
Habits;  (Call me curious.)
Phobias;  (Possible tie into the story.  It's not necessary but it does give me something to work with lol.)
History/Background info;  I want descriptive details here folks.  Absolutely NO ONE LINERS here.  This is your chance to impress, especially if you're going for a captain position.  Beyond that, go nuts guys and gals.)

Well it's good to know that we don't need to know much about the anime's because I haven't seen persona 4 at all.  I've kept up with juice I mean Bleach. Juice is a fun memory. Question would it be possible to a seated shinigami and still be an original character at the same time? 

Vergil1989

Because Aizen betrayed the Soul Society and took at least one other captain with him and a lieutenant as far as I remember, yes, you can be an original as well as a captain or one of their underlings.  Persona 4 is more a game from the PS 2 era however but it has recently been made into an anime but it's good either way Kaisude.  You'd have to be able to make me believe you deserve such a spot however lol.  A captain in the 13 Courts isn't picked just for their good looks you know.  :P

I did a little research and saw that it was a game at first as well. Still the anime is pretty cool. Currently watching it at the moment. Aizen actually took Gin and Tosen two captains from the Gotei 13 though I don't remember the squads. I think it was three and nine. I don't think I will be aiming that high though. After watch several episodes of Persona 4 I think making the rift from persona user to a shinigami will make things more interesting. Though the idea of being a captain has a small spot in my brain that infests with ideas.

AQ Do we all start out as a persona user before becoming a shinigami or do we have the option to be a normal human, but some how end up mixed in with other persona users?

Vergil1989

Lol if you want to be a captain that's fine, but you might have to earn that right is all.  The way I imagine this working is as follows.  Persona users are in a way normal human teens, no younger than 18 due to E's rules and all, but they for whatever reason have gained the power to make their will physically manifest as powerful monsters.  The way it'd translate into Bleach though, at least as the guy did it, is that their Persona would transform into their sword that all Soul Reapers possess.  To unlock its true power, they'd have to train like everyone else, relearning their Persona/zanpukato's name once again although in the case of a Persona user, it wouldn't take more than a month, if that.  Normal humans do not have either Persona power unless they face their Shadows as seen in P4 or spiritual abilities like a Soul Reaper, so it's either you start off as a Persona empowered kid or a Soul Reaper.  So, any other questions?  Everyone dies at some point, I just imagine that the Soul Society hasn't run into Persona users before so they won't know exactly what to do with them at first, but if you or anyone else uses those from P4 then they all wound up in the Soul Society at the same time due to fighting against Izanami and losing save for Souji who managed to at least take her down before her Thousand Curses got him like it got everyone else.

If we get a few more people here I'll gladly get a character sheet going, but until then this will simply be a crazy idea of mine lol.

I've heard that and that's why I chose to set this shortly after Aizen left and disappeared into Hueco Mundo until he was ready to attack the Society.  As I said, I don't run systems so you don't have to worry about that part my friend.

Name;  Asa Yamada
Gender; female
Age; 19
Orientation; lesbian
Canon or original? original
Persona user or Soul Reaper?  Soul Reaper

Persona User info only;
N.A
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Name of Persona/Zanpakuto  (For a quick example, should you have gone with Izanagi, your sword would also be called Izanagi.)
Arcana Classification;  (One of the majors or lessers, it's all up to you.  Just be sure it matches your personality.  Each Arcana also has Persona specific to that area, so be careful of that as well when creating this part.)

Back to Black
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Asa is special and holds lots of spiritual pressure despite her age. She holds two spirits within her Zanpakuto. Kyrala on the right and Kyroru on left.
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Shikai; Heaven's Grace
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

(In your name, Kyrala) Asa's bankai changes her blade to that pictured. It is unable to slash and cut as normal swords do but it is capable of piercing anything with ease. It resembles a long unicorn horn. Asa gains the ability to cast a shield similar to that of Orihime's but more wide spread and stronger. She also gains wings that she may use to fly. She is known as the Angel on the battle field to her fellows in the seireitei.
(the girl pictured is Asa)
Bankai; Heaven's Wrath 
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

(Show Mercy, Kyroru) Asa's bankai summons Kyroru in the form of a Winged Unicorn. He can have a mind of his own when around anyone other than Asa. She does not need to be directly with him to control him because of the connection between Kyrala and Kyroru giving her the ability to have him go and protect and support others while she continues to support from the background. He can create a healing gust of wind from his wings, create a thick mist that hides spiritual pressure, and summon down a high powered beam of light. Asa has yet to use her bankai in battle and these are the only techniques revealed to her by Kyroru.
(the girl pictured is not Asa)
Specialty;
Kido (mainly healing, sealing, and barrier type)
13 Court Guard Squad position;  Vice captain Squad 4 (if you would rather me not be vice captain i can be third seat i just figured with my abilities I'm a bit stronger than most in terms of healing)
Personality;
Asa is a quiet person normally in the background. She cares a lot about her friends and thous close to her and hates to see anyone hurt. She rarely speaks up unless for others safety and only raises her sword to defend. She easily goes unnoticed until she speaks given her meek nature and short height. But she is always around to help.

Asa has always been more interested in the female body more than the males. She enjoys reading yuri manga's. Her mind is quite dirty all the time but she hides it well. Besides the blush that appears on her face whenever her mind wanders to a dirty thought. Luckily most don't notice. It is all in her head thou, she is not outgoing enough to pursue anything. She enjoys being a shadow, so to speak.
Quirks;
Blushes at dirty thought's. Speaks very softly. Often trips on her own feet when not focused.
Habits;
Playing with hair. Quietly following friends. Reading dirty manga's (her little secret)
Phobias;
Asa is only afraid of two things. Losing her friends in any way. And even worst than that.....SPIDERS!
History/Background info;
Asa was quickly recognized in the Soul Reaper academy for her skill with Kido and healing. It was only natural that she would be put into Squad 4. Her will to protect people was quite strong. She quickly took to her Captain, Unohana Retsu. their similar attitudes and wills drew them together. On top of that Asa is  Seinosuke Yamada's daughter. Not that she knows seeing as he left when she was just a child. But Seinosuke was Unohana's second in command once. Unohana knows who Asa's father was but hasn't told her as Asa rarely shows interest in knowing.

In one of Asa's first missions supporting a strike squad entering the land of the living the squad was hit hard by three huge hallows. Most of the strike squad had been injured and Asa was one of the few outside of the ambush. The leader of her relief team called for a retreat but Asa couldn't stand leaving her fellow shinigami. She ran in to see a lone fighter Kazename. She remembered him from the academy, he was strange, but he was alive and that's all Asa needed to know to try and protect him. Quickly rushing to his side she drew her sword even though her hands could do nothing but shake in fear. As she stood back to back with him and the Hallow's surrounded she thought back to how she got here. Why she came back. She could be safe at the sereitei with her captain.

"Do you want to run away and leave him?" A voice called in her head. It was a soft voice. It made her heart feel light. but before she could answer another voice spoke as well. "If that's all you want you will die as well." His voice left a sharp sting in her heart. She never thought of dying herself. "I just wanted to protect them." She thought as she looked up at the Hallow in front of her his huge eyes and grin showing Asa's strange images of what he most likely wanted to do to her. "If you want to protect him then do so." The female voice said speaking once again. And in that moment it seemed clear to her. "In your name, Kyrala."

That was the first time Asa used her shikai. She created a barrier that allowed Kazename to come and be healed safely. Asa wished he would stay put inside until help came but he never stayed put for long. Something about wanting to feel more pain. Captain Unohana came shortly after two of them had fallen to kill the last and help the remaining injured. It was soon after this when Unohana began closely training Asa to be her second in command.

Now Asa sits at the second seat next to her beloved captain Unohana. Her healing skills and shikai have earned her the title of Angel on the Battlefield. She now acts as one of the few field soul reapers in squad 4 that go out with other squads instead of waiting on standby. She herself has started this trend.

EDIt: Kaisude gave me permission to incorporate his character in my history.

Name of Persona/Zanpakuto  Izanagi-No-Okami
Arcana Classification;  The Fool;  "The Fool Arcana does not mean it that can be taken lightly. The Fool is number zero. It is the void from which all other things begin."  The Fool Arcana is an Arcana appearing in the Persona series. Portrayed as a jester laughing very close to a cliff, accompanied with a dog at his heels. The Fool represents innocence, divine inspiration, madness, freedom, spontaneity, inexperience, chaos, and creativity. As such, the silent protagonists from the recent adaptions often starts out the Fool Arcana, in reference of their personality are shaped via player's actions and decisions. Gameplay-wise, the Fool Arcana tends to be the "jack of all trades," since its Personas can inherit all skills without preference for any type.

The World; The World Arcana is a powerful arcana in the Persona series. It often appears as the final triumph arcana, creating miracles and aiding the Protagonists. Portrayed as a young woman (or hermaphrodite, depending on deck) surrounded by figures of an angel, a bull, an eagle, and a lion (representations of the four elements in transcendent form, as well as the symbols of the four Evangelists Luke, Matthew, John, and Mark respectively), The World Arcana is a representation of the world's totality, the symbol of fulfillment, wholeness, and harmony. The World Arcana is commonly associated with Social Links, where its power is based upon the Protagonist's bonds with others.
Power before your death;  Izanagi and Izanagi-No-Okami are the ultimate swordsman and the forms of gods in the Japanese myths.  They are creators and dispellers of curses and lies both.  To face Izanagi is to face not only his lightning endowed blade, but it is to also face the very truth of existence itself.  Few would dare, save for one, Izanami-No-Ookami, the goddess of the underworld and Izanagi's former wife.

(I'm no good with Japanese so you'll have to forgive me lol.)
Back to Black
Shikai;  Burst Lightning, Izanagi!  The Zanpakuto becomes a mirror copy of the samurai's sword itself in Yu's hand, allowing him to channel and see spirit energy.  Thus, energy shields for example become useless before him once he finds the right frequency to dispel it and strikes accordingly, as well as being able to shoot potent energy projectiles from his sword.

Bankai;  Dispel the Fog and Lies, Izanagi-No-Okami!  His sword changes again, this time gaining a blade on either end of a circular hilt and guard with a bar running through the middle that ends in said blades.  His black robes will become pure white, representing his ability to see through even the densest fogs and see through lies with ease, making illusions and similar magics worthless before him.  (Mind altering spells or illusion spells to be more precise.)  Not only that, but because he is in harmony with himself and those he had once lead, Yu is always calm and controlled, making his every strike precise and deadly, especially when he unleashes his namesake Arcana, The World's, ultimate technique, Myriad Truths.  Izanagi-No-Okami himself forms behind Souji and joins in the fight, adding his immense power to every strike delivered by the young man himself before they finish with a spiritual explosion of light, demolishing everything around them.
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Specialty;  Hoho
13 Court Guard Squad position;  3rd Seat of the 6th Court Guard Squad.
Personality;  Once upon a time, Yu Narukami was cold, distant, and even a bit naive and had a deadpan sense of humor.  Once upon a time, life was rough due to the fact that his parents moved all the time due to their work, often leaving him to deal with relatives and friends of the family he didn't really know or truly care for.  That all changed however when he moved to Inaba to live with his uncle and his daughter.  It was there, in the company of Ryotora and Nanako Dojima, as well as the friends he made at Yasogami High School, that he finally found a reason to care, truly care and not just go through the motions of life as he had been.  Once he was cold and uncaring, and now, now he would gladly put his life on the line to protect those true friends he has made.

With his friends at his back, Yu fights for a better future unclouded by the lies and deceit that lie in the fog.  He lives life fully, without regret or shame, and encourages those around him to do the same.  When a friend is in trouble, he is there to lend a hand.  When a friend is in need, he is there to support them.  Few are those that he'd consider an enemy worth truly hating, seeking instead to understand why they do what they do.  Drawing his blade is a last resort, but once that line is crossed, be prepared to face an unwavering individual that knows no fear and one that shan't be lead astray by an easy way out.
Quirks;  He tends to find himself in the occasional embarrassing situation regardless of how he handles things to avoid such a thing.  (Comedic relief in the making lol.)
Habits;  He's a diligent worker and doesn't do things halfway.  Beyond that, when he has the free time, he enjoys hanging out with friends, both old and new alike.  He also enjoys music, movies, and training given he had to lead in their last battle in the world of the living.
Phobias;  Despite managing to finish off Izanami, Yu fears failing everyone like he did again.  The thought of losing those he cares for tears his considerable will apart.
History/Background info;  http://megamitensei.wikia.com/wiki/Yu_Narukami  Ignore the speech bit Izanami makes at the end of the history section.

Throwing everything he had into that last attack stopped Yu's heart, effectively killing him while his friends were able to live because of his final actions which had broken the curses that Izanami had cast on them all.  Having exhausted himself to the point of death, there was nothing for them to do save to take him home and give him a hero's sending off considering he had saved the world, both of them.  The funny thing was though, was that he could SEE and HEAR everything around him as if he was having the worst outer body experience imaginable, yet no one could see or hear him.  Well...almost nobody.  Nanako could, but he didn't want to upset her more than what she and his uncle were already as his friends did their best to explain to the two what had happened and what he had given up so that they and the rest of the world could live on.  He grieved with the rest of them since he'd never be able to truly help them again in any shape or form, unaware they were most likely going to end up following him sooner or later, most likely sooner if Fate wanted them together again to save another world again, or the one he was leaving behind.

It was shortly after the funeral that he saw a black robed woman appear behind him, seemingly out of thin air.  Her name he found out was Rukia Kuchiki, and she was a Soul Reaper.  "You cannot stay here Yu Narukami.  You've died, yet you linger here.  I can help you find peace and take you to a better place than this.  The fact she carried a Japanese katana on her right hip worried him a little but he didn't sense any malice from her, and silently nodded his agreement, his hands at his sides as he gauged her reaction.  She seemed pleasantly surprised that he had agreed so quickly, and the fact he held an enormous amount of spiritual pressure also intrigued her to no end.  "I've already said my goodbyes during the last battle Rukia.  I know I don't belong here anymore, as much as it pains me to leave everyone behind, I know I cannot stay."  He replied, turning one last time to look at those he had grown to care a great deal about.  Yukiko, Yosuke, Teddie, Naoto, Rise, Kanji, Nanako, Chie, and his uncle Ryotara; he'd miss them all a great deal.  It was then he felt Rukia's hand on his shoulder and he turned, staring into her face, her eyes, and nodded again to her unspoken words.  She understood exactly what it was he was feeling.  He sighed heavily and closed his own, just as the hilt of her sword touched his forehead, a brand appearing on his head which glowed brightly before he felt utter peace flood his soul as he sunk into the ground and crossed over, appearing in the Soul Society a few seconds later.  He was a bit surprised, having expected something entirely different than what he was seeing as he appeared in the Rukongia, on the outer edge of the Soul Society's borders, seeing a massive fortress far in the distance.  He shrugged, seeing countless other people all around him as he made his way forward, curious as to what his new life would be like from here on out.

((Some of this is right from the wiki as I'm sure you've guessed by now.))

IMPORTANT UPDATE as of October 6th 2016 in A/A page

Kaisude


Kaisude

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide

Name; Kazename Tsuchikata
Gender; Male
Age; 18 (28)
Orientation; Straight
Canon or original? Original
Persona user or Soul Reaper? Soul Reaper

Persona User info only;

Name of Persona/Zanpakuto
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
Arcana Classification;  (One of the majors or lessers, it's all up to you.  Just be sure it matches your personality.  Each Arcana also has Persona specific to that area, so be careful of that as well when creating this part.)
Power before your death;  Lightning based attacks, fire, etc.  You don't have to list the skills by any means, but it helps to have a comparison to go by.)

Back to Black
Shikai;  Houkou, Chikushou. (Howl, Beast) When released  Chikushou becomes two identical weapons that Kaze wears on his hands. There are five blades on each hand all equal in length. Chikushou's Shikai ability allows Kaze channel his reiatsu through the blades so that when he slashes the blades emit the reiatsu in waves of destruction, allowing him to be a long ranged fight and close ranged fighter.

Bankai;  Chiushou ,Ookami, Pakku (Beast Wolf Pack) When released Chikusho grants Kazename to make three clones of himself, though if he chose only to make a single clone he has the power to do so. Each clone has all of Kazename's abilities but the draw back is that they all share his reiatsu as well. Each clone draws twenty five percent of Kaze's reiatsu weakening the real Kaze substantially. Also the clones are more susceptible to damage but are sturdy enough to withstand most basic attacks and some advanced abilities. When removed the clones return ten percent of Kaze's reiatsu back to him.

Specialty; Hadu
13 Court Guard Squad position;  11th Division Captain
Personality;  Kazename is a cocky bastard and won't hesitate to say what he thinks. He thinks anyone who lacks confidence is trash, and they deserve to have confidence beaten in to them. Despite being cocky Kaze isn't reckless he uses his head given the situation. He demands respect although he rarely shows it.e He's actually not much of a talker, but despite  that his looks also portray his cockiness.

Not the intellectual type either he's a wolf in a human's body. He trust his instinct more so than any solid information. Kaze's a soldier who knows how follow and lead in the field of battle. When he talks Kaze is clear and loud so there is no need to repeat himself. Kaze's not a loner but doesn't like babysitting weaker allies. A masochist at heart and tends to show it on the battle field allowing his opponent to land attacks to give them the idea they have the upper hand. Kaze has some chivalry in his blood though, and those who are stronger which choose to display their power on the weaker will answer to him. 
Quirks;  Sleeps more than he should, doesn't drink, Growls like a wolf.
Habits;  Tends to walk in a circle on his bed before laying down. Always pushes his chair in after getting up. Never knocks before entering.
Phobias; Odd numbers,
History/Background info; Before the Gotei 13 Kazemune  was a student at Karakura High School the most important years of his life. Before that he was just a normal boy who had a mom and dad who loved him very much. They enrolled him in Kendo when he was seven, there is where he found his calling. The way of the sword was something that interested him more than school. Still his parents were strict about him taking kendo, if his grades weren't good he would be pulled out of kendo definitely. Ninth and tenth were fly by years for Kaze, he spent his time in the kendo club, and managing to keep his grades up to a passing grade.

Eleventh grade Kazemune participated in his first kendo tournament. He was cocky going in, but didn't know what to expect. His first round was the only loss he had ever received but despite the loss he didn't let it get to him. He trained harder then anyone in the club after that, pushing himself to point of passing out during his training. His first encounter with a hollow happened during the summer before twelfth grade was to start. He was just walking down the street when he heard a scream coming from an alley way. It was a woman's voice that he heard, and without any hesitation Kaze ran head strong in to the alley, only to find the woman dead and half eaten with a dog like monster eating the woman. Doing his best to remain unseen Kaze charged in and attacked the dog with kendo stick, and after the first strike the stick broke. The dog then turned to Kaze and before Kaze could move the hollow was charging up a red beam which proceeded to blow through Kaze's left side His body fell numb and his life force was slowly fading away,

Waking up Kaze was surround by the strangest people wearing kimono. He tried to get up but the pain was too unbearable so instead of laying down he continued to get up and enjoyed what little pain he could tolerate. "Wha-What the hell is this place!" Suddenly all eyes were on him, and a man approached him. This man was Zaraki Kenpachi the eleventh divisions captain. "You tried to take on a hollow with a kendo stick kid, even if it was that stupid you got guts kid. I brought you here to the Gotei 13 I'm going to take you and make you stronger, but you won't call me master." Kaze saw his chance to get stronger, and nodded in reply. Not hesitating to jump on the crazy train he accepted what ever life he was given, and all in order to get stronger. He had made conscious decision to be a good little pup. His ego had to suppress a bit, but it was necessary to achieve his goal.

Losing himself in his training Kazename lost track of time as it had been a minuscule need in his life. He grew stronger through Kenpachi's brutal training. It explains the scar across Kaze's face. He decided to take his training to the next level and challenged  Kenpachi himself. Kenpachi had been waiting for Kazename in the training field located in the west wing of the eleventh division. Tension built in the air as the two standing just yards apart from the other. Kenpachi spoke, "First one to draws blood, but if you can even cut me I'll give you my captain seat." He finished with the grin of a devil on his face. Kazemune responded "Houkou, Chikushou." He didn't know if would actually work, but Chikushou felt the same way and was done being a pup. With out missing a beat Kaze engaged in battle with Kenpachi, their blows sparking a heat in the air. Being in the eleventh division a physical Zanpaku Tou was require anything else was shame in itself. Kaze couldn't use his rieatsu to fight, so now was his chance to test his swordsman ship. The battle continued on and the obvious winner was going to be kenpachi, but whether it was fluke or not Kaemune didn't hesitate to take his chance. Charging dead on while parrying Kenpachi's attack Kaze noticed that Zaraki's reaction time had slowed down. Giving it his all Kaze put all of his rieatsu in to his attack and barely pierced Kenpachi's skin. The battle had been the most intense training Kaze had experienced in his years as a shinigami. Total exhaustion had taken over his body and as he fell back Kenpachi's blade sliced Kaze directly between his eyes.  When he awoke he was back in the infirmary his vision was blurry, but it slowly regained after several seconds. Kenpachi was there with the haori in hand. "You're up. Well a bet is a bet. Here pup you're the Alpha dog now." Kaze looked at Zaraki with tense eyes but he swallowed the lump in his throat and accepted the haori with honor.

It turns out that Kaze had been sleeping for two months, and over that time Zaraki convinced the rest of the captains to allow Tsuchikata Kazename to be a captain. Most captains were reluctant, but the first captain had sided with Kenpachi.

After receiving more training over the years, Kaze had learned to become the leader of the Eleventh Division. Through Kenpachi's teaching he honored him and resumed his training regime.

Finally Kaze was allowed to lead on missions to defend the human world against the hollow of Hueco Mundo. The patrol had been so good so far, and it had only Kaze and three others who were vetern recruits but who had been trained by Kaze himself. As the patrolled as huge pulse in spiritual pressure had engulfed Kaze and his unit along with the support unit ready to back Kaze at any moment. Three Gillian had appeared from a garganta and immediately engaged Kaze and his unit, not moments after there was an order of retreat. "We've been ordered to retreat but let me ask you this men. What would Kenpachi do?" Kaze and Bakumaru the vice captain both released their shikai while the other two readied for battle. The battle raged on and the support had responded to the retreat except for one girl, who decided to stay and try to take care of the men from the eleventh division. Which seemed to fail as the battle continued to draw on. Losing two of his men had made the weight heavier on Kaze and Bakumaru, but they held their ground. It was Kaze's fatal mistake to stay and try to fight and for that he paid the price. Bakumaru had lost his life giving it for Kaze, but Kaze wouldn't stop. With the healing of Asa he was managing to work his way around and strike the hollows. "You're the Alpha Male," Chikushou rang in his ear. For a while he had been trying to manifest Chikushou, but his Zanpakutou had other ideas. At that moment Kaze could feel the combining of their spirit, and as he stood in front of the gillian he released his bankai, "Bankai," As his body manifested a clone of himself they spoke, "Chikushou Ookami Pakku," Springing to action the two Kaze's we able to down their first Gillian, but before he realized it there was a strong strain on his body, and the cost effects from the clone were setting in. They were barely able to down the second gillian, and Asa had strained her energy as well, after releasing her shikai to back up Kaze to her max potential at the time. Disbanding the clone unwillingly Kaze fell to his knees powerless to fight against the last Gillian. His fate had seemed to end here, but back had arrived ahead of schedule. Unohana Captain of the fourth division had subdued the hollow with a fierce hadu, and returned two back to the Soul Society. After that day the two were given the name of Angel(Asa) and Demon(Kaze) Only time had passed as Kaze revised the division and had a memorial set for their fallen comrades. Now age twenty eight he continues to lead his division as the Alpha Wolf and does his damnedest to make sure that everyone in his division was ready for war.

Kaisude, you are most assuredly ready to party with the big boys.  Welcome aboard my friend.

And sorry everyone, I forgot to add an appearance tab, (again,) but I have it added into both the character sheet and the coded copy so just add an appearance thing right after your age and you should be good.  And while I'm thinking about it, a Soul Reaper is immortal, meaning that unless they die they will never die of old age.  I forgot that but I should have really put apparent age instead of just age since I know for sure Rukia is about three hundred years old if not older lol.  Still, what you have now is fine, so no biggie.  I'll finish my thing today as well then I'm outta here for a bit.

If we can get one more person into this get together, then I'll be happy to get the IC and OOC and all that going later today.  Until then, here's hoping.  And for those that are thinking of using one of the original P4 cast, know that they didn't die in that last fight as I had originally planned.  Instead they survived the curse but Yu did not due to exhausting himself to the point of death.  So if you want to use one of them, you'll have to come up with your own way to cross over.
