Intro
Hello! Welcom to the BleachRP section of GrinWiki! This is not only a reference sheet for all the terms, Kidoh, Characters, and rules, but it's a great place to get started in your wonderous #BleachRP adventure!
What #BleachRP Is
BleachRP, or Bleach Roleplay is a roleplay world based around the manga and anime, with quite a few changes made to it, different characters and history. It's run on the caelestia IRC (internet relay chat) network (Channel #BleachRP and the OOC is #otherworld-ooc) Although our player base is small, the quality of roleplay is above average, and it's a pretty fun place to RP in, too. All people wishing to join are welcome, as long as they can provide a basic character sheet which can be seen later on in this page.
Terms
Shinigami (Or Soul Reaper): A good spirit with the ability to pass spirits on to the next world. They can go into a Gigai, which is an artificial body. In the Gigai, the Shinigami are seen by the humans. (One of the two races to pick from)
Vizard: Half hollow Half Shinigami. Have same abilities as Shinigami, but have an inner hollow that can be released.Hollow: Evil demon spirit that destroys spirit. (One of the two races to pick from.)
Zanpakuto: A special sword only some wield. It has it's own name, which, is hard to discover. When you say it's name, it goes into Shikai form. Shikai form is a special form with some powers. You, start off with one.
Flash Step: A faster run. Train for a half and hour or hour to level it.
Flash Fist: A faster series of punches. Train for a half and hour or hour to level it.
Kidoh: A type of spell learned by Shinigami, also referred to as 'Demon Arts'.
Reiatsu: Spirit energy.
Soul Society: The place good souls are sent to by Shinigami. There are 98 districts, 1st district being a haven and 98th being a hell hole, these districts are where the souls live. However, Shinigami live in the centre of Soul Society where living conditions are better. The centre is guarded on all sides by an inpenetrable soul energy-proof wall. The centre is also nicknamed 'Court of the divine souls'.
The Academy: A school where souls go to learn to be a Shinigami. Whilst there they'll learn how to wield swords, use Kidoh, and slay hollows. Basically, everything a Shinigami needs to know. In the classes here there's a noticable difference between rich and poor souls, they're even seperated from sitting near each other.
The Divisions: The Divisions are split up into 8. Each division specialises in a certain task. Whilst Shinigami have some freedom of what division they want to choose, Captains can also effect which they have to be in. It is not uncommon for there to be rivalry inbetween divisions, especially between 4th and 7th.
1st Research and technique.
2nd Training and mentors.
3rd Intelligence (spys etc)
4th Fighters.
5th Hollow hunters.
6th Security
7th Medical
8th Main force. [Like the army for Soul Society]
Rules: The Short Version
1) No godmodding or bunnying.
2) Respect character limits.
3) Don’t pester ops to do something you can't.
4) Don’t use << >> to manipulate other characters.
5) No made up abilities, no spontaineously gained abilities either.
6) There must be a reason for dueling another player IC. If you don't have one, and dislike them OOCly, it will be treat like assault.
7) Things AREN'T PG13. (Ye have been warned!)
8) Please... Please don't use a character that just fights everything in its way.
Rules: The Long Version
The rules of Bleach Roleplay are simple. Fortunately, only the basics are there, and they are followed.
Firstly, no godmodding of bunnying will be tollerated in BRP. If an op thinks one or more participants of a duel are godmodding the offender's character will be defeaten. If all sides of a duel are godmodding then the fight's called off, it will be interrupted by some IC event and no fighting experience will be awarded.
Secondly, respect characters limits. This does partly fall into godmodding, in summary, no matter how strong your character is he's not losing all his limbs and still fighting. Not even characters from Monty Python. This also goes for spiritual energy, in early levels you can't just spam Kidoh or abilities without getting tired.
(In the anime a character who specialises in Flash Step stops training for 100 years. Still great with it, though, after using two hundred or so flash step and getting tired they consider that weak endurance. In other words.. Higher level characters have can dish out much more skills without getting tired.)
This is not really a rule, but a word of warning. Pestering an op to spawn a hollow or ambiance your action's going to end badly. Especially when their in the middle of a long and well thought out storyline. As for ambiance... There's a reason we like to use <<Text>> /me text. in BleachRP.
Note: <<Text>> CANNOT be used as a way to manipulate other characters, only your own skills and Kidoh. This IS a rule.
Power gamers beware. You can't have a legendary character, you can't have every ability in the book, and if you face someone a considerabely higher level than you, you're dead. On the same subject, you can't just use abilities made up on the spot or gain things your character never had before and never learned IC.
I'm rather laid back as in what you can do in Bleach Roleplay. In other words, the place isn't PG13.
Disliking someone OOC and attacking their character IC with no reason is assault. Action will be taken if such things happen.
I shouldn't have to say this but you can't just have a character who fights anything in it's way. A character that loves to fight is one thing, slashing anyone in your way is another; it's disruptive.

Division: Fifth
Background/Other: (You're in for a long boring ride.)
Rin was born in South New Jersey. Her life was short lived, literally, as she died at two years old. She doesn't know how she died, however; she was too young to recall it.
When Rin died, she was so young, she didn't even realize the change, so she continued to age at a normal pace, a human pace. When Rin was eleven she entered Soul Society, in the fifth division, hollow hunting. She didn't know exactly why she wanted to hunt hollows, it just sounded so exciting from what she had read.
And she read everything. But she didn't just read everything, she absorbed it. She finished a five hundred page novel in a week or less. She would read textbooks high above her level, making her a model student. She loved books. When she died, her parents lived, leaving her there alone. She taught herself to read, taught herself to write. She became fascinated with books, loving them. She could read about anything. She even read human books, quite often. But not only does she read, she also writes a lot. So much even, she'll write five page essays from her notes that were never assigned. Rin has been for as long as she can remember, Ambidextrous. This trait makes her rather special, giving her the ability to use Kidoh with both hands, such as White Lightning.
Her teacher's loved her. She always paid attention, even if she knew what she was being taught and she participated in class. She sat up straight, took well organized notes, the model student excepted for one thing. She never wore her school uniform, the black Shinigami robes. She always wore a rosey pink, Japanese school uniform style outfit with a black briefcase with the book she's currently reading, cough medicine, some school essays she wrote (that were never assigned), among a few other things.
Rin was never usually very outgoing, she was occasionally but she was never more outgoing than when she had a cold or was tired. It sounds rather odd, to be outgoing when you’re sick but Rin had a nasty habit of taking to much of the abovementioned cough medicine and becoming rather drunk on it. Never violent or drunk beyond comprehension, she never took that much. But it was enough to get her to loosen up.
Speaking of nasty habits, how many model students do you know who are cutters, anorexic, and insomniac, all in one? I can name one. Rin. When Rin was reading one day, the same day some of the other girls in her class had made fun of her for always having her nose in a book and not being 'human', she gave herself a paper cut on the tip of her index finger. She liked it. She felt pain and she knew for a fact she was human, she had the scar to prove it. But time went on and the scar went away... She hated it. She no longer had the proof. So she cut herself again, to make a little more permanent mark. She needed more. One wasn't enough. She had to feel.
Rin had a lot of emotional pain during her school days, more so physical pain anyway. But when she cut herself, she knew it was happening, and she controlled it. It made the emotional pain seem less real, she had proof this was happening, what proof did she have of the emotional scarring? None.
Rin was always self conscious of the pretty, blonde girls in her class who never seemed to do well in their classes, but always seemed to be well liked. She grew to hate how she looked and feel uncomfortable in her own sick. She began to stop eating. She lost five pounds in two weeks. More weight came off but she never stopped... She became anorexic.
Rin would spend hours reading. If she spent five hours reading on Monday, she'd spend seven on Tuesday. Sleep became rarer and rarer as the weeks went on, and when she did get sleep, she was curled up in a tight ball, in the space on her bed not covering in open and closed books scattered everywhere, and papers sprinkled on top. Her lack of sleep never really showed to her teachers, however.
After three years of training, Rin's Captain decided she would be sent to Japan to take care of a hollow report in a school. She, being extremely nervous took care of the hollow with the help of Silkwind, the Vizard.
Silkwind and Rin get off to a pretty rocky start, as he invites her back to the old, abandoned house they live in, where she meets Dimitri, another Shinigami from her division even.
Rin's a pretty bi-polar person, being meek and helpless one moment and loud and in-your-face the next. She's been known to cry a lot, even over little things. She has above average hearing, comes from her listening to her teachers and everyone around her. Listening and reading.
She was never too active in school but doing plays was something she had a secret passion for. She used to get some of the starring roles in the plays for her great personalities of the characters.
When a long chain of events lead Rin, Dimitri, and Silk to a dark ally, hating each other, Rin decides to shock everybody by being honest and admitting that she thinks she loves him, resulting in there first kiss in a dark ally, illuminated by Rin's pink necklace.
Rin and Silk are currently going out and Scully, Dimitri, Rin, Silk, and sometimes Robert, are living in the house. Rin is slowly learning to accept other's help but one of her main focuses is making sure she remembers what's important to her and doesn't do anything she'll regret.
Though Silk doesn’t know it (They’ve never actually been on a real date), Rin has a lot of favorite things. Her favorite color is pink and dark red (the same color of Silk’s hair). She had a "thing" for: Red ties, Chocolate Syrup, Whipped cream, handcuffs, and dark alleys during a rain shower. Her necklace Animus, claims she also has a thing for collars and leashes, but she denies this. Her favorite pastime is reading and writing anything at all. Rin’s favorite book is actually a human book called 'The Princess Bride'. She loves going to the beach but hates bathing suits.
Rin’s dream wedding is a small garden wedding with just close friends. She dreams of a big, traditional wedding dress with crimson roses in the veil and the skirt. She’s often been caught daydreaming about what it would like to be a parent.
Rin’s Zanpakuto’s spirit, Animus, often knows exactly what to say, when to say it, and how to say it, to get Rin to accept help. She’ll say it when she has a headache and is more likely to reply out loud and says something to get her to admit she’s in pain or something to that effect. While Animus is a pain in the butt to Rin, they’re best friends. Animus is rather talkative and sarcastic towards Rin, and everyone for that matter, but that’s hardly common knowledge.
Rin’s been trying to get back to Soul Society for a while now, but apparently it has been put into lock down, but as the hollow sightings continue to rise and vanish through portals that lead to who knows where, suspicions and assumption grow high. What is Rin going to do?

Fairly average looking handle, up until the hilt/handguard, which appears like a plastic flower overturned.At the very bottom of the blade, it's shaped hexagonally for decoration, two flowers whose stems are entwined are etched into this. Up from there, the blade looks like any double edges blade apart from the fact it has no centre.. After the hexagon it appears like two blades of the same length of and shape, one facing left the other facing right.
Shikai abilities: Silkwind has two abilities most others, he also has to say "Scream, Mallaineous." to get from normal to Shikai form.
