You can use that pic sure, we would just imagine it without the Captain Robe. Brings to mind an interesting idea of one of the Rogues trying to collect all the Gotei Captains Robes that betrayed Nobunag.

And yeah we can ha e a uniform if you like. I imagined us all looking like the guy in Bleach movie who takes Hyonimaru? Forgotten his name but he wears a mask and a blue robe.

Ok that's awesome. Yeah think Hisagi, he is an Lieutenant but he is one of the stronger ones and whilst not as powerful as a captain he can be as dangerous. It's just to make sure we don't go overboard on the power levels. We don't want to brush the Gotei 13 aside we want good fights! This obviously means that you can fight the Leuitenants in the Gotei 13 too so it gives us a lot more scope in terms of opponents.

Awesome, good to have everyone on board. I will probably get to writing up the plot properly and then do an OOC tomorrow!

If you have anything else you want to suggest/have in the RP then voice it now. Also the CS will prolly be typical so if you can't wait go ahead on making your characters, I'm thinking that since we have at least 4 people in on this then we can have powerful characters. I'll assume the roll of the old Lieutenant of Nobunaga and as such leader of the invasion group but it will only be a loose command structure so I won't be bossing everyone about too much.

A note on powers, I don't want any wacky stuff like Time control or anything like Aizen because those kinds of powers are limited to rediculous level characters like Captain Commander/Aizen and eventually Nobunaga. So if you can try to be really inventive and intelligent and create something that will make a real stand out spectacle when you write about it! :)

That is all...

P.S would be nice to have a few Leuitenant-level characters of our own. On par to Hisagi, instead of having everyone at Captain level. If anyone is willing to do that it would be cool :)

So that sounds like 2 votes for my setting. Who else is up for it?

Gorou Nobunaga, the lost Shinigami

Almost a millennium ago when Captain Commander Yammamoto was bestowed the honor it was predicted he would go on to become one of the most powerful to have commanded the Gotei 13. It was predicted because at the time of his appointment, there was another. There was one man who, under muttered breath was deemed the most dangerous Shinigami that had possibly ever lived.
Even though they were not seen by the majority, his peculiar abilities were infamous. Rumors from his fellow captains when he was forced to show his Zanpakuto to the previous commander had trickled down the ranks until it became legend.

Commander Yamamoto's first act as the leader of the Gotei 13, was to officially strip the rank of the Shinigami Gorou Nobunaga and to imprison him for as long as is seen fit due to his powers being deemed to dangerous to not only the Gotei 13, but to the Seireitei and to Soul society itself. This came as a shock to many of the other captains but after years of rumors it was eventually accepted by the majority. The one minority who did not accept the verdict, was Nobunaga's squad and primarily his lieutenant. They fought the Captain commander in front of central 46 but they ruled in favor of Yamamoto, who was deemed by the Lieutenant as a power hungry fiend who was only after the mantle of most powerful Shinigami in soul society. Nobunaga was to be imprisoned, and he did not fight when his Zanpakuto was taken and he was escorted to the secret cell built just for him.

His squad however reacted differently, they fought tooth and nail to stop the verdict of Yamamoto and were pushed to the side for the supposed 'benefit' of soul society. A small contingent of highly seated Shinigami led by the Lieutenant disappeared in promise to return one day in vengeance.

Soooooooooooooo! this is a quick sketch of what I have in mind. We would take the part of the long lost squad members who after almost a millennium have grown in power almost exponentially, enough to combat the entire Gotei 13. Hows this sound everyone?

Yeah I'm not keen on us controlling our own opponents because we are essentially always fighting ourselves. My idea is the same as Fox's where we play each others opponents. However I want to stress that I would prefer us to do this RP for real storyline reasons, to make a really cool arc rather than treat it as the Arena and based solely around the fights. The fights will be pivotal and climactic but I want lots of twists and turns etc to make the story interesting to play out :)

Speaking of, who has ideas for the reasons we are invading. Currently I'm thinking that it would be based around something a long time ago when an extremely powerful Shinigami was imprisoned similarly to Aizen. And whilst the Gotei won't know it (we can plot hax like Aizen) our true motive is to free that person, but we feign that we are trying to make the kings key or something that would act as a red herring to the Gotei.

Awesome. Also everyone can have input in the plot as I feel that is the most difficult part of a Bleach RP. I suggested that it's a war between the Gotei 13 and some Rogue Shinigami, if everyone is happy with that I think Hansa's idea of having us all on the same side would be the best idea.

Now, I think it would be best for us to take the side of the Rogue shinigami, we get Captain-level powers etc however it gives us an excuse for all of us having Original characters, AND it means we can use the cannon Gotei 13 without the conflicts of power-levels or who wants who. That does mean however that there might be chances for people to play as the cannon characters in a NPC fashion.

If anyone would like to take the post of being the NPC king and essentially taking the role of the Gotei 13 voice yourself, but you better have some skills!

If anyone has any problems or suggestions for the plot as I've just layed it out then also please voice your opinions! :) and of course thanks for the interest.

Well I posted this in advanced aswell and that seems to have garnered more promising interest so if you to would like to join that Int.Check it would be great. If your worried about advanced standards I can aleviate that a bit, it will probably be high-casual low-advanced level it just helps being in that section in terms of design and such.

Hansa - Hansa! 'ol buddy 'ol Pal. 'course I remember you! Also good point. If I can rely on everyone to do a good job with NPC's I'm happy with everyone being on the same side also, either that or we have one person as all the opponents, but they would have to be good.

Rilla - Thanks Rilla, your welcome to join if you ever feel the urge.

Red Fox - I didn't recognise you at first 'till I read your old guild name. Good to see you again!

Wolfsrose - Awesome thanks for the interest.
