That ability I asked to to see will be a character's illusion based zanpakuto ability, I just used Haru as an example to show how it works.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:52, April 8, 2011 (UTC)

Hiroya's Review
Well I looked over what I originally had, and felt that it wasnt a proper review, so I'm going through and editing it all over again. I'm going over your Honshitsu right now. Ill probably break the review up into the three parts once I finish with your spells. Give you something to read over and consider while you wait for the zanpakutou review. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 01:05, April 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Alright, I've uploaded Part 2 of his review, although its going to be broken up even further. This last one took me some time to finish, but ill try and get the rest filled out in the next few days. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 17:44, April 9, 2011 (UTC)

Bankai!
Hey, I think I'm going to need a bit of help in crafting Kenshin's Bankai. Part of the reason I've been using his shikai is because i felt that any bankai I create from his Shikai will be....extremely powerful in that regard. I've got some ideas, on how it works, but I'd like to bounce them back with you beforehand. One thing I did decide on was to expand upon his Swordsmanship and incorporate that into his Bankai. I have a rough draft that basically details that Kenshin has Five Stances, each ones name relating to a phase of the moon. In order to unlock the full power of his bankai he has to shift from the first phase all the way to the last. Which can only happen during combat. He can activate his Bankai normally, but without doing this, he'll only release a fraction of his power. If you have the time to help, let me know and I'll go into more detail. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 20:30, April 9, 2011 (UTC)

As you know, his ability allows him to "negate" supernatural affects. His Bankai would both augment this and expand upon it. In order to balance out his Bankai it would have two distinct stages. The normal Bankai and a sort of "Second Stage". In order to reach this second stage, I've devised a requirement, that Kenshin would need to go through five "phases" or stances, each one a reference to a phase of the moon, with varying abilities and modifications to his own. When he reaches the "New Moon" (he starts at full moon"), he can activate the Second Stage of his Bankai. Otherwise he'll only be able to access the normal level.

Now to go on to what his Bankai actually does. On, one hand, I figure his Bankai to work in a similar manner to the Magia Erebea of Negima, wherein any attack he "negates" with his Zanpakutou, he actually absorbs and uses to augment his own power. This seems like the natural evolution of his ability, and is very powerful in of itself.

His normal "Genzoumetsu" would extend to his entire body instead of his sword, but of course that would make him virtually immune to any Kido or affect that targets him. Another ability would be having area of effect versions of his Genzoumetsu. My friend thought up an interesting "Final Bankai Ability" which would allow Kenshin to create a permanent black hole for any supernatural affects in an area. If spiritual beings were in the area, they would have ALL of their spiritual power and likewise Zanpakutou abilities negated/removed, becoming like..well Ichigo as he is now, but without fullbring. I explained to Twilight his negation ability functions in a similar manner to Orihime's "Rejection of Fate". The difference being his ability is effective against the physical nature of the supernatural such as attacks, spells, etc of a supernatural origin. Orihime's just flat out negates "events" as though they never happened. Either way their powers "restore" reality to a previous uninfluenced state. I've basically told Kenji the same thing, since I'd like multiple eyes on this. Any help is appreciated, and of course, feel free to poke at this with a 10ft pole. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 21:09, April 9, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, alright then, I'll forgo the "entire body" version. I do however like the concept of these "Negation Fields". Though I wondered how they would affect other spiritual beings, and I've just come to the conclusion, that while powerful it wouldnt end a fight. Though it sure as hell is useful though. I see it as, immediately ending any "ongoing effects". This includes Kido, Release states and transformations. Rips people right out of them. Considering that Kenshin does not, and probably wont ever have such higher states of power beyond Bankai, I consider it, somewhat fair. Of course the person can always just initiate the good stuff again, but I think the sudden loss of power would cause their spiritual power levels to drop significantly. Mechanically, if it would even work would be dropping it by one stage. Ie Immense Spiritual Power is lowered to Great Spiritual Power, until it recovers (which depending on the person can be a few minutes to a few hours or even a few days). I also considered him having the ability to generate additional "swords" that he can use offensively or defensive with the same power as his shikai. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 21:08, April 10, 2011 (UTC)

After a conversation with an informed friend, I have some better ideas on where I want to go with Kenshin, at least story wise, and oddly enough they do coincide with the Triumvirate I'm creating. I've already got a basic template up, but I'll be expanding a bit more on her history. Which I'll need some help with, since given her age, will predate Soul Society, so if possible, I could use some feedback, since at least for I'll be considering the history "canon" so to speak. I'll probably have to create a separate article detailing the pre-history of Soul Society if I want to make this work. Oh, and if you have time, I wrote down a "quote" for Kenshin, although its more of a monologue detailing his innermost thoughts, and a bit of his history. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 07:33, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Ok
Ok, well two things are required. This is to provent mis and op use of it. I don't want the strongest and oldest echelon of energy turned into a Hollow Mask type thing. Hey I saw how you used Philosophy. Just you should make a section saying exactly what it enhances or gives to other abilities like your Sacred Spells. Just while Philosophy is limitless in amount it cannot be manifested forever or at least not a incomplete manifestation of it. Also, it doesn't make your character a different or a hybrid kind of species like Vizard. Just everyone has it or the potential to create it and it doesn't change the species. This is energy is complete separate from spiritual power and so it won't change the users form.: The Twilight of Your Despair 12:41, April 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * 1) First off as he is a Shinigami it would make sense that he can use an incomplete Philosophy under the aspect of death. Now like how using it under the aspect of creation manifests white energy from the body and surrounds the body like an aura. You have to come up with away on how it looks when your Shinigami character uses it. But the color for the aspect of death should be red, like a Shinigami's spirit ribbon.
 * 2) Secondly, and this is the more important requirement. The use of Philosophy require 4000+ years of training, so your character will have to come up with a way of why he achieve it in under that. Like how Haru can use it for he has 12 personality and how each personality trains together.
 * No so much a requirement, but it take along time and training to use it under all aspects to manifest it completey. So until I make some new abilities any character that cannot use it completely can only use what is under the incomplete manifestation set of abilities.: The Twilight of Your Despair 22:26, April 10, 2011 (UTC)

Umm, you know that just cause Philosophy isn't remotely spiritual power you can still use his zanpakuto, just cause Philosophy is a different and higher class than spiritual power it doesn't mean that you cannot use any of his regular powers. That is why it grealty enhances Reiatsu. Just Philosophy cannot be broken down, or negated by Sekkiseki, or Reason like the Kosumosukihaku's Deity-like Spirit energy but also Philosophy cannot be broken down by spirit energy in like the affects Sekkiseki, or Reason.: The Twilight of Your Despair 19:09, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Well I am glad that you found away to not op it for its hard not to op it. Now like how Reason has its own Species I was thinking that there were a species made of nothing of but Philosophy. Tell me what you think of these names.


 * Teacher of Beyond


 * Knight of Endless Enlightment


 * Peaceful Being of Truth


 * Deity of Understanding

Well what you think?: The Twilight of Your Despair 19:35, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Wel, maybe your right. But their is one species that cannot use Philosophy until very specific requirements are meet. They are the empty souls that my character Spirit is made of. You see Empty Souls are made from the remain of Reiatsu in the spirit worlds. The Reishi forms over it and creates a body and characterlistics form the Reiatsu like Height and looks are given to the Reishi forming a new soul. To use Philosophy they have too become a Shinigami, Raifutenshi, a Knight of Ruin and a Kosumosukihaku. Once this is done they can develop philosophy. For each aspect is related to ones emotion like sadness, hope, love, joy, hate, envy, pain, despair etc and Philosophy is understanding through the four aspects on a very high level.

And so since Empty souls have no feeling good or otherwise they can develop their Philosophy until they develop feeling first and go beyond them.: The Twilight of Your Despair 20:35, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

hey do you know the translation for knight of ruin: The Twilight of Your Despair 17:55, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Umm, when I message Void I notice something. I have to do several things at once normally I have four seperate tabs open editing different characters and rps etc, so forgive me if I don't seem to make my character live up to their standard level of their powers. And despite you being a natural viewer calling my character like Kenpachi even has an estimate is rude when I made him seem very smart and while Kenpachi is no idiot I made Kiyoshi very smart. Just he is dealing with a self-rightous punk Kenshin and not void whom is control him for killing hundreds of his subjects in a place where he has no authority so he might not sound all clam.: The Twilight of Your Despair 23:12, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Long Time!
Hey! I was wondering if you would be interested in having an RP between Van Satonaka and Miyata. Figure it'll be fun! =DRozeluxeMeitzen 13:22, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Haha two rogue shinigami going at it? Hmm the thing is Van wouldn't really know what Miyata looks like since he woldnt go to Soul Society do to him being wanted as well for leading a mass break out. =p But yea.. Hmmm well Van cold be looking for information regarding his brother Toru and then sense Miyata and we can just ad-lib from there in the RP =) RozeluxeMeitzen 14:44, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Well do you want to start it up or should I?RozeluxeMeitzen 16:05, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Well here it is...Scar Dead Tale. Hope its a good one =D RozeluxeMeitzen 04:19, April 12, 2011 (UTC)

Howdy
I'm liking the release you've given him. Makes those water abilities all the more deadly and cements him as one of the strongest in the group. Very nicely done, pal. Anyways, I'll admit Kenji's Bankai is powerful, but it isn't without its weaknesses and limitations. Outta curiosity though, which part do you reckons overpowered? Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  15:28, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

Response
While you've made some valid points, I'm gonna try and explain why his powers are at the level I've portrayed them. I'll deal with this in the same way you did, with the three headings. Oh yeah, this is by no means a pop. I'm only explaining my view. Right, moving on then.

First Imbalance
Firstly, I need to address what you've said about Naibu before I can get to Kenji, as the two are linked. I find it rather funny that you've compared Naibu's strength to Ichigo's Final Getsuga Form, though. I've never stated anywhere that Naibu's strength is at that level, or even implied it. His skills were influenced as stated in his behind the scenes section, meaning thats where the idea came from, not that they are the same. By no means are his physical abilities in the same league as Ichigo's. In fact, Head Captain Yamamoto a little weaker would be a closer match to Naibu's physical levels, as no Shinigami's spiritual energy was greater than Yamamoto's was during that period, so neither would his physical levels if Naibu converted it. That in itself makes Kenji's strength nowhere near as powerful as you've said it to be, but I'll admit that he is still quite powerful. And I'm glad (delighted in fact) that you mentioned its more akin to a Resurecciòn. I didn't actually expect anyone to pick up on that in the slightest to be honest, but that was indeed my intention. Kenji's zanpakutō has always had Hollow Powers as a result of Hollow Kenji's energy merging with Sanmiittai's forming energy when the Inner Hollow died and Kenji's zanpakutō first formed. Sanmiittai's innate Hollow Influence - which is greater in Bankai than in Shikai - polluted Kenji's Bankai, in a manner similar to Kusaka Kori's with Hollow energy, hence the physical attributes which are present. He may have lost his Vizard powers, but by no means did Hollow Kenji stop being a driving force in Kenji's power.

Now, his speed isn't exaggerated by any means. Kenji's greatest attribute has always been his lightning prowess and natural speed, and lightning itself has always been known to be incredibly swift. In his history, he had a rivalry with Byakuya and received lessons from Yuroichi, so he's always been skilled in Shunpo. I've attributed the speed to his wind nature in the description I admit, though its a proven fact that strong winds cause water and ice to rub together, which creates the friction needed for an electrical field that causes the lightning and thunder; hence the levels of speed. With lightning as the explanation, its no surprise that Kenji's speed breaks limits. And the fact its labelled as such is again partly due to the influence of Hollow power from Sanmiittai himself empowering the ability beyond its usual levels. And it has weaknesses, if you think about it. Think about the sound he makes, for one. No matter how much speed he is utilizing, he creates a static sound regardless. Remember Zaraki Kenpachi's bells? Exact same principle. If the foes senses are tuned enough, you'll be fit to discern his location based on the sound, though at close range I admit that it'd be difficult - but not impossible. And his Bankai would only be used against the strongest of opponents, as he hates using it because of its strength, so there senses would be tuned enough in the first place. Examples of opponents would be Meian or Averian, if your wondering. Both would have the analytical ability to pick his Bankai apart.

Now, In terms of him being god-like. By no means is he even remotely god-like. His spiritual energy was always vast, set at being higher than even Captain class. The Ryu Guard are a good indication of his spiritual energy, as Kenji is stronger than them all. Only Meian beats him out in spiritual energy, but Kenji's different forms (Kyo, Bankai etc) make Kenji stronger. Then there's the influence of Kyoaku to take into account also, which in itself constantly makes Kenji's bog-standard spiritual energy stronger, as he exists within the initial stages of the fusions with Kyo (expressed via his crimson eyes). And Bankai tend to increase the Shinigami's power by a factor of anything between 5 - 10, which in itself would make Kenji's spiritual energy overwhelming. And then I come right back to the Hollow influence.

Second Imbalance
Shibō, eh? Right, I think you've been focusing to much on the description and not what can be read between the lines, pal. This ability corresponds to Kenji's ability to destroy spiritual-based occurrences with his aura alone. His ability have absolutely no bearing on the physical aspects of a persons power. Your basically looking at Kenji's own answer to all the Aizen Zanpakutō copies floating around, as illusions (because they are spiritual-based) will be completely negated. And just to point out, Hiroya spells had no bearing on Kenji's power, as I've been planning this for quite some time now. Regardless though, the ability has another weakness. It would naturally require a time-limit, hinted by the statement I made though attacks at close range can only be partially deconstructed because of the closeness between Kenji and his opponent. Also, the bigger the attack, the longer the deconstruction takes, which is pretty straight forward. That in itself helps add balance, but still its a powerful effect I admit.

Third Imbalance
His Bankai's ultimate defense (I use that term very loosely now) is a combination of all three aspects highlighted in the Bankai, and also shows the relationship the power has with his Kyuukyou Shouten transformation and his mastery of the Yuengiri styles (he needs to cycle energy through his body to obtain the transformation for example). But you've admitted to finding a way around it, correct? So how in the name of creation is it an ultimate defense if you can counter it? Hence why I said I use the term loosely. I blame my poor choice of wording on that in the actual description, though. Defense will do, I think, so cheers dude. And Shirohane is a good defensive zanpakutō and one of my favorites on the server, though some of its techniques could be interpreted as an ultimate defense also.

And you keep referring to him as a god, when he clearly isn't. The weaknesses are there to exploit if you think about it and can pick them out. I'm a Bleach and manga/anime geek, my cousin who helped me create it is no different, and Kenji's Bankai has been built from the ground up using inspiration from multiple sources that gel and compliment one another to create what you see.

Now, in response to your final paragraph. This is because that you, as the creator likely never thought once or twice about how his abilities could come off, and some of the most overpowered abilities might not have seemed overpowered at all to you. Is what you wrote. That annoys me, 'cause one thing I spent a lot of time looking over were the various different ways his Bankai could be took and perceived by others. I even wrote three off-line RP's with friends who've had characters created previously for work on fanfiction.net with the singular purpose in mind of testing how it could be perceived and worked through. So saying I didn't think once or twice about the abilities and powers is way off the mark, pal.

Whew, that was long lol. But thanks for letting me talk about his Bankai like this, 'cause if anything, it made me like it even more. And I value critics and criticism, or I wouldn't asked you to tell which parts you thought were overpowered. So no, I didn't think you were harsh at all, pal. Critics are supposed to point out their opinion and believes, otherwise whats the point in reviewing something? I've asked people for reviews ever since I started adding more details to my articles, which started with Sei's, I guess. Anyways, thanks for the feedback, pal :) Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  18:59, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Tsuchi & Miyata
I think you're on to something here. Alright, though i'll need to finish up with his Shikai release at least. Unlike Kenshin, I do have have a pretty good idea of what I'd like for it, considering how straight forward it is. Its his Onmyouji magic that will be the hard part. Though even for that, I'll mostly be sticking with a theme of Divination, Seals/Barriers, and spells with utility as opposed to spells suited for battle. But yeah, the creation of colloborative techniques would be a great stepping stone. Though at the moment, I'm trying to split my time with finishing up Kenshin's Bankai, updating multiple RPs, and finishing two characters, in addition to doing things in my normal life. Its getting pretty hectic. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 21:57, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

The Finale
Really? The last post left me kinda confused. It seemed like you were ready to the end the RP given that Hiroya is now running away. But given your last post, you expect us to make chase. And so we shall. Thankfully Taro has teleportation, so we should be able to catch up in time too. Hmm, i'll have to get Jet'ika to make a post then. Oh, and check out the latest update I made to the RP with Kiyoshi and Kenshin. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 02:41, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

Hey man! So I was thinking that for the final phase of the battle I would have Taro go into Bankai, but the problem is I am still unsure what to make of his bankai. I had intended it to be such a strengthening of the portals that they could suck people in and push them out like tiny little black holes if Taro so chooses and then a general powering up of his shikai abilities along with a few new moves. But I'm still unsure of this and was wondering if you had any suggestions for his bankai? Cheers! -- Jet'ika (Talk  | Contribs ) 03:07, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry my post is taking so long, but if it goes as it should its going to be a long one. I know we talked about "bullet hell" but I'm not sure if you've actually seen it in action: Bullet Hell. Depending on what Jet'ika says, I'll edit the post I'm writing to accomodate any changes, but I'm hoping to make it as epic as possible. My thing is, if you're going to do an RP, take your time so you can do it right. Win or lose, all of our characters are going to come out looking badasses and thats the goal. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 03:03, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

If you get the chance....
As the title says...if you get the chance...could you look over Rozeluxe Meitzen and give me a review of him? Also...I'm really enjoying this RP, its making me think of what could possibly come next =D RozeluxeMeitzen 14:45, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm...I'm not exactly sure how the water came if all of it was crystallized by Van but by your last post I'm guessing you want to end it? Booo...=( RozeluxeMeitzen 18:35, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

Oh ok...I didn't know if that ability of Van's offended you. lol But Even so, the water isn't there at all...its all been turned to my magnificent crystal! BWAHAHA (my sad attempt at being a villian) Its like when Van battle Kenji and his lightning, The lightning crsytallized thereby making it impossible for Kenji to control at all even if it was part of Kenji's spiritual abilities. I know he is supposed to be a major antagonist but I wanted this fight because I knew the distinct advantage I would have but mostly because I wanted to see what else Miyata would come up with to use in the fight if all of his main abilities are sealed by Van's crystal much like what happened to Kenji lol. I figured you're a great RPer so you would come up with something crafty =D But if you want to stick to the current post just let me know and I can go from there RozeluxeMeitzen 19:25, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

You mentioned Kido, Van cant crystallize Kido as long as it isn't infused with some regular element. I wanted to test the battle capabality of the big bad guy before he makes his debut...lets jut say this RP isnt BFF canon...more like what can happen kind of deal you know? The big badies should have multiple things up their sleeve for any given situation that should occur. And Van's crystallization skill is OP...he's grown stronger over multipple RPs and has risen to that level. That's why I only use him for dire situations and such. lol OH! And sorry for taking so long to reply....I couldnt access the website for some reason. RozeluxeMeitzen 02:04, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

Tourney
Njalm2 you cannot use Philosophy in the Tournament for its not fair to Wandershinobi and too know why I am telling you this look at one of the last messages on my talk page I think its titled Question sent by Wanderingshinobi.: The Twilight of Your Despair 16:33, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

Then you talk to him if he doesn't mind that its fair, just the last thing I need is some one calling me bias. Also if you ever make Hiroya have a complete Philosophy than I was thinking he gains white wings for complete manifestated of Philosophy is different per person, for it being energy to a weapon to a transformation.: The Twilight of Your Despair 16:53, April 15, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Iwanaga
I'm a friend of Void's IRL, and I've been helping him hammer out the details, so I think I'll go ahead and anwer this one on his behalf. Iwanaga is not a shinigami, and her age is explained in part due to her origins, and due to an event that happened to her shortly before she turned on Commander Yamamoto and the newly founded Soul Society. I won't say more than that for now, but she is certainly interesting. Oh, and I wouldn't bother trying to help Void make her a zanpaktou ;D Chrono Nexus 10:47, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

Welcome back Chrono, finally got enough minecraft eh? Anyways, he's right about a few things, though in all honesty I tend to just ignore the "Longevity" of Shinigami. Besides even in the context of my stories, people like Unohana are at least 2000 years old, possibly even older and she still looks like a youthful woman. Not to mention there's the concepts of residual self-image, as well as possible increased longevity from having even higher levels of spiritual power. There's nothing in canon to suggest that they wouldnt live longer, and the description applies to the average Shinigami, not the 1 in a trillion that have Great Spiritual Power+, which in my opinion would greatly extend their lifespan, possibly making them immortal until killed. On that note, Tsuchimikado would never have to eat either. The consumption of food was only required as a means of restoring spiritual energy. Since he can simply absorb ambient spiritual energy he doesnt need to eat. I have taken into consideration these things however and her name is also an allusion to her incredible lifespan. In the Behind the Scenes I went into some detail about the origins of her name, and the mythology surrounding the actual mythological character. That should give some insight into her powers and personality. :) --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 17:05, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the praise, but yeah she's not even close to being finished. Ive got a LOT more information I need to flesh out, especially her personality and some of her unique spells that she'd use. I'm not entirely finished with the Talismans as I wanted to include an example one that she would give to each member, one in particular would be a sort of...contingent teleportation spell. It would require preparation to set the target site, but their purpose would be to return any member who uses it to their base of operations immediately. By affixing it to their body it will automatically activate when their spiritual power gets below a certain level. Its effect is supposed to simulate them "dying" ie their bodies dissolving into dust. I figure it would be a good item to have in the event they were outnumbered or were about to be killed, or if they needed a quick getaway. The actual spell, is something I'll need to get out, but thats what the item's intent is supposed to be. Like inscribing a one use - Danku on a paper seal. They're great since she can distribute them to even lower ranking members and have them cause mass destruction, even if they're powers arent very remarkable. Overall a good addition and very versatile piece of equipment to have. I'd be like having the fodder hollows, hurl paper seals with the Kurohitsuji cast by Aizen coming into effect. VERY devastating if used right. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 19:34, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Howdy Pal
I'm using one of my new arcs to test out a new writing style I've been meaning to try out for myself. Its based on the style the Bleach Wiki use for highlighting important battles. I was wondering if you'd give me your opinion on the article as a whole? Its called A New Occupation... Introducing Team Sanretsu. At the end of part II, I intend to have a large-scale battle from multiple different point of views and locations, and want to get this style under my belt, so to speak, before that point in my story comes about. If you could give me some feedback, it'd be greatly appreciated, dude. Kenji-Taichō (Talk)  20:40, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

Yo
Wanna RP? Grizzaka 21:43, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

WHOA THERE!!!
Could you please explain to me how Van's crystal lance got wrestled away from him? He isa GRANDMASTER crystal manipulator. Giving that he can control the crystalof others, so no one so far has demonstrated this much skill in this area so Idaresay Van is the best at it. RozeluxeMeitzen 11:35, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Ah. I see you've forgetten one simple thing. Van doesn't have to ever the bond between Shinigami and zanpakuto. Gotta make me go all bio/chem major on you lol...But when something is crystallized it is completely taken over by said crystallization resulting in nothing of the previous material remaining due to the atoms and ion that make up the material being put into sort of a stasis and therefor becoming "frozen" giving the molecular composition of the crystal. Once the water has left Miyata and put into the form of an attack it no longer falls under the control aspect. For example when I said the water on the ground was crystallized, that wter was no longer in the grasp of Miyata because as from I can remember reading Miyata's water is in the form of several orbs. Granted those may not be able to be Crystallized but the tidal wave and rain that Van manipulated should not have been able to been broken so easily.

And Van's skill is irrevelant. In fact its pretty darn important as since as you say the title of Grandmaster surpasses that of Master, Van has done just that. Van has grown over the course of several RPs, and has reached that level through training and hard work. To prove this aspect, Van has even shown to be able to crystallize the flames of Sei's zanpakuto, one that controls interactions in itself. I completely support the idea of grandmaster as there are things that masters do not know such as in a dojo. The master still responds to a head or Grandmaster in this case. As the grandmaster has secrets that they will not teach unless its to the ones that master their mastery over their discipline.

And yes, Naruto was used for inspiration but I upgraded it to fit the bleach universe, making it just as fearsome. If you need an example, just ask Kenji. His lightning was rendered useless to him as Van is able to crystallize anything with a mass, effictively eliminating any control between shinigami and element. I do hope my point of view is now clear as I have worked extremely hard and the Water control you're displaying completely negates that. It would be different if you had used more water to break Van's constructs as that is entirely plausible but to just say it shatters due to Miyata controlling water is extremely odd. I hope there are no hard feelings about this.

RozeluxeMeitzen 13:51, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Ah. I didn't mean to 'waste' your time. But very well. It shall be over then. RozeluxeMeitzen 14:28, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

No i understood. I just felt as if it was insulting to every RPer. Personally I believe that RPs should be carried out to the end, even if its not fully enjoyed. Although I tend to enjoy every RP i do, even if its just me getting taken out to pasture, such as the case when I used Haruki against you. It was more offensive to my pride as an RPer rather than me personally as I don't like dicontinuing something once I start. But as for me disregarding a character's ability...when did I do that? RozeluxeMeitzen 14:44, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Ah then you proved my point that I had from start. Say the storyline brought them together again in the field of combat, what would Miyata do then? I know it seems OP but it truly isn't as there are several ways to get around it. But I was just trying to get you to see that as the big villian...he needs more ways to fight than just his water. Because if its nullified by an opponent then he has nothing. I just wanted you to see that because I think that Miyata is one heck of a character and that you should possibly dive a bit more into the possibilities of water like the melting aspects of it (A way to get around the crystal of Van =P). I think it came across as me belittling him due to several misunderstanding between the two of us on what was going on. RozeluxeMeitzen 17:23, April 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yo, not to pry or anything, but I do have a suggestion for...increasing Miyata's repertoire of skills. This idea came about when I was attemping to construct Iwanaga's spiritual power and what makes it so potent. However the concept behind it is sound enough that I think it should be applicable in other cases. Spiritual Energy can be broken up into types, and in a way like Naruto ones spiritual power can possess an affinity. This affinity is determined by the alignment of the spiritrons that compose the individual units of their spiritual energy. Spiritual Alignment can also be referred to as the collection of desire's and wills of the individual themself and how well they align also determines the potency and degree of their powers. In Miyata's case his are aligned in a way that gives him an affinity towards water. Or rather, given his abilities he has an easier time controlling something when it is in a liquid state. In your roleplay with Van, what could have happened, was after he turned your attacks into crystal, was Miyata giving him a lesson in why his power was to be feared, and create liquid crystal. Basically Miyata could have a power that goes beyond just water and manipulates anything in a liquid-state. Water just happens to be the most bountiful of them all. Though to be honest I had considered giving such an ability to Tsuchimikado but have since realized that given Miyata's specialty he would be better suited for such a power. Just a suggestion from reading your Roleplay which was quite entertaining by the way. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 17:59, April 19, 2011 (UTC)
 * Void pretty much established what I was trying to get across. lol Miyata is a baddie..feel free to give him a multitude of abilities. hahaha And I must apologize as well cause I'm so used to RPing with senior members of the GF that I forgot that newer people dont know about Van's capabilites and thus should havethem explained slowly intead of all at once.

Hey
Wanna do an RP my man? Grizzaka 18:59, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

-sigh- alright then man. Grizzaka 19:41, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

sure, u start off the RP. Grizzaka 19:52, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

k, um dude you should know that Radiant city for me is in the us around some mountains, there not in japan. so u should change ur post. Grizzaka 20:10, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Dude, if u read her history you can see why she acts like that man. Grizzaka 21:11, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Are yall waiting for me to decide the winner of your Vahalla round?: The Twilight of Your Despair 20:57, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

I told him to message me. Also I gave Haru Nakamaru a Kido new technique called Zettai Shugo Ryōiki what you think?.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:46, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

So what you think of Haru's new power Zettai Shungo Ryoiki.: The Twilight of Your Despair 22:46, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I was wondering want to fight against him again? Maybe a current member of the group he founded or maybe even Hiroya again.: The Twilight of Your Despair 22:56, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

I told ws to message me and he hasn't in about 2 to 3 days so by me I declare you the winner for Wandershinobi forfeit when he stopped roleplaying and gave no notice to you or me that he would be gone for a while.

P.S would you like to fight against Haru against Miyata former leader against current member.: The Twilight of Your Despair 13:00, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe but you should have waited to see if he would change his mind instead of just deleting it. As from that want Haru and Miyata to fight kind like that that character is one of a few that are asigned to find him when they aren't doing anything else?: The Twilight of Your Despair 19:12, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Ok, and well I would prefer to keep those section of the table for reasons. That it describes the Character's basic history, prior, dring and of course after the left or if they were killed. Please don't remove them however you wish it you can make the table smaller to where the table doesn't looks messy For I couldn't get how to make each section equal in length to the others.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:02, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Haru Nakamaru
Well, I think its a good idea, I've pitched it to Twilight, so we'll wait for his response. Although Tsuchimikado isnt completely finished, I'll be adding some unique spells later this evening. Like I told twilight, I need to get ready, but I'd be interested in this kind of battle. I think it'd be fun to RP with Tsuchimikado, I love the trickster type of personality in characters. I just had to have one myself, and a malicious one at that too. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 21:04, April 21, 2011 (UTC)

Because I already have a full gay character and besides despite him being the King it is expected that he has children one day to add on to the line of divine immortals but he can do so when he wants to and he still relationships with either gender. He likes male 90% of the time and women 10%. Also I have gay friends and family so it doesn't, never has, and never will bother me. Now when are we going to fight with Haru against you and void.: The Twilight of Your Despair 18:15, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Who you like to start the fight with your character vs Haru and voids character comes in later? Also, about Kiyoshi just cause he likes females as well as males too he is more gay than bi, but still bi for I am going to make a female character that is madly inlove with him but never gets unwhere with him.: The Twilight of Your Despair 20:31, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Well, then next time I see him on I'll get it started and then we will rotate turns. And I side question if Haru and Kiyoshi faught with only sealed zanpakuto only used stuff like Kido Hakuda, Swordsmanship, and Shunpo or Shunpo like powers whom would you say would win.

And as far as Kido or Spells Haru can use Hado number 96 without the chant but as it requires body parts to be used he makes his fake Haru's do that. And Kiyoshi can use a spell that at least as strong as Hado number 96 but still not like he can cast it 10,000 times.: The Twilight of Your Despair 23:32, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

Since Haru was the founder and the former leader well then should the formers ranks differ in placement from the current Triumvirate whom are equal or close to equal in strength. Like after he left the Triumvirate weren't like the Espada 1-3 anymore but are just three seperate people of near equal power that each commands a certain number of members.: The Twilight of Your Despair 18:11, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

Gamemaster
Hiya, Njalm! I doubt you remember me, but I was the one that did the review of Rutilus Maculosus Lupus. Anyways, I was wondering if you would do me a huge favour and do a review of my new Tōjū, Tenkō, when you have the time. Please get back to me when you can. Ciao~ --- Gamemaster (Rules)  21:46, April 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hiya, Njalm. I was just stalking people's talk pages and I came upon you and Void's discussion about the Quadrumvirate.  If I may ask, why are mine and Jet'ika's characters "a far-cry from what would be expected from an article of that role in my own opinion?"  Obviously, you have every right to believe that, I'm just curious as to why, because I'd like to improve Idzumo to the standards you guys are looking for for such a character.


 * Ah, thank you for clearing that up(: And yes, he did write a review for him, and I plan on doing just that, but over the weekend.  I'll most likely have full internet access all weekend, so I'll have plenty of time to work on him.  Who knows, I might even add his history... >__>

RE: Triumvirate Zanpakutou
Sure I'll help. Funny thing is, and you'll have one hell of a laugh later is that Iwanaga's Zanpakutou is already finished, and its extremely powerful. Of course she wont be able to access it until after a bit of story happens, so thats all good. Her other abilities make her more than strong enough to deal with anything a Shinigami can come up with. But what ideas did you have and how do you plan on manifesting dreams? --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 20:32, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, interesting idea. So I'll do what my friend did for me and begin the asking of questions to help bring shape to your description. When it brings them into a dream realm is it only their mind in the realm itself or is everything, including their physical body brought it? Also in this dream realm is it in your characters mind or a pocket dimension he creates? Hmm, for now I'll settle with those, and I'll ask more once you have answers. As for the headquarters being there? That makes a lot of sense, which again you'll need to address these issues as to how it can be that if its almost always sealed up in the first place. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 21:44, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry for the late reply, I was busy all day yesterday, and I had a tournament I needed to get to. But good answers. Now, I'll ask a few more. How or rather...why does your Zanpakutou bring others to its inner world? Why not create a seperate pocket dimension? It seems quite a bit of a hassle to do otherwise, not to mention competing spiritual powers could potentially overpower it. What happens if there is an even stronger source than your own? Combined or otherwise? Could they potentially break free? And what of their abilities? You mentioned it would allow him to control reality within it, so does that mean that those brought inside, are stripped of their spiritual power, and killed instantly if he so chooses? --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 17:18, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

Hmm alright, now for the next line of questioning:

Why does spiritual power have no meaning in the world? Is it some mechanic of the Zanpakutou that regulates the input/output ratio, does it simply filter the excess energy elsewhere, how exactly does that function? And how is it capable of stripping an owner of their Zanpakutou's power? Is this related to how it deals with the menace of spiritual power? Are the opponents Zanpakutou's even brought in the world to begin with? And if its capable of stripping them of their Zanpakutou powers, how can it not, "kill" the opponent outright. Just strip them of their spiritual power. Without it, they dont exist. If spiritual power has no meaning, then there's no defense, and if we assume that...than killing them via this method is a possibility.

I ask these kinds of questions because having the ability to rewrite reality is an extremely powerful ability, and without proper guidelines or rules in place, it can quickly lead to being overpowered. So I'm being very critical in this regard in disecting every bit of information you give me. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 18:45, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

The way you've described this Zanpakutou....seems more like an Illusion-type to me. Creating a sort of...shared phantasm in the targets mind, though the illusion is elaborate enough that they are transported to this "dream realm". Though if thats the case, then potentially anyone could "wrestle" control from your character if they possess a strong enough will. Consider lucid dreaming, you may want to address this issue, since even if a dream is fleeting those that are aware they're in a dream can then manipulate and control it.

As for not being able to target people directly in its influence, I would go on to explain why it cant, other than this being a balancing issue, or simply stating - it cannot directly influence someone, merely the environment around them. I reason, that in this dream world, we have "actors" and "observers". Your shinigami would be the "sole" actor, while everyone else is an "observer", and thus unable to change their environment. However if your Zanpakutou tried to target them directly, they would become "actors" themselves, and well...thats very dangerous since now both you AND your opponent can now control reality. That makes more sense in my opinion, and provides a great excuse as to why your Zanpakutou is dangerous without the seals. If anyone could use its power, than yeah sealing it away would definately be a top priority.

I think we've got most of the details ironed out, though that will depend on how many others you add or take away during this creation process. I've given you my opinions, though for now I suggest clearly defining who/what its capable of manipulating while in this dream world. Even if he is a bad guy, other people will be playing these "heroes" so you may wish to consider what restrictions it has.

Though its odd that you create characters to be killed off. I've never created a character that is "destined" to die. Iwanaga and Dorothy included. If there is a solution or way they can survive a given encounter, I will seek it. For me, I'm not just here to roleplay a "hero" that defeats the bad guys. Both my good guys and bad guys are main characters in my book. Sometimes, its the villains who are overcoming the heroes. Well anyways, hope my line of questioning helped, in figuring the specifics of your zanpakutou. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 23:24, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

Hey
I heard from Kenji that you guys want to introduce the new group, how bout we do an RP that introduce them. Grizzaka 15:44, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

wait, what's wrong with my abilites? Grizzaka 16:03, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

Dude, Man I've been here longer than you and it took me months to perfect Ray's Profile. check Haruki Minrou again and see if i still need more info. Grizzaka 16:18, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

dude i can't just do one thing all the time i have other stuff to worry about, if you want to help me out then go 4 it by all means, i don't have much time before i start college and i have to prepare for it man. Look i need help with it so you can help me i just need to focus on some other stuff and my other characters. Grizzaka 16:37, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

what u see is what i want man, you should be able to understand his theme and abilites after reading them if not it's based around the sun and moon, phases of the moon, eclipse, all that stuff man. Grizzaka 16:50, April 24, 2011 (UTC)

The Swan and the Hunter Finale
I have to apologize for this long wait, but I'm just about finished with my post. Its quite long so bear with me, but I wanted to demonstrate both Kenshin's tenacity and his incrediable abilities, while at the same time showing due respect to Hiroya's own. I think you'll be pleased with the results (hopefully), and we get this battle finished up. Anyway, thats my post, Ill need Jet'ika to get his in. Again sorry for this long delay. But ever since yesterday, it feels like I've got my...groove back so to speak, creatively speaking. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 18:55, April 25, 2011 (UTC)

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I want to illustrate that by taking your opponents attack into consideration and respecting them, can make both characters appear ten times more badass than they do, and in the end I enjoy it, you enjoy it and everyone's happy. I'm glad you've found this RP so entertaining, its given me a great deal of insight regarding Kenshin's abilities. The way you've roleplayed Hiroya, *gives two thumbs up*, he is truly worthy of the title Kido Master. And yeah Katanagatari is an awesome series, and its...unique artwork only serves to endear its audience to it, not to mention the series has one hell of an ending. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 20:13, April 25, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks man, I had loads of fun in the RP as well. I've actually been involved in a little RPing here and there for some time. But have become much more of an avid Rper in the last few months. I'm actually only back temporarily as I took a day off before jumping into my studies once more as after today there are only two days till my finals start off. So I will try to get a post up some time today. Cheers! --  JЄT ^ ΙΚΛ  14:56, April 26, 2011 (UTC)

RE: Tsuchimikado
Oh thank you. I've always wanted to play the trickster type, and I find it quite enjoyable. If anything roleplaying with him is nothing short of entertaining. Its a barrel of laughs with him. Too many characters on the site are either too...animeish, or well....authors tend to put on the "mask" of their character, like its a costume. When they roleplay, there isnt much difference between one character and the next. Tsuchimikado is a breath of fresh air so to speak for me, since I can adopt a completely different attitude towards other characters. I try to change Kenshin...slightly, depending on the opponents he's facing. If you recall, he was rather respectful and showed hints of regret for what he had to do towards Hiroya, while against Haru he was a lot like Aizen in that he was an arrogant bastard. Against Kiyoshi he was very ruthless, uncaring and dismissive in his tone. Dont be afraid to demonstrate some....inhuman qualities in Miyata or your other characters. But then I've also played a lot of Dungeons and Dragons in my life, so playing different roles is easy for me. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 20:20, April 28, 2011 (UTC)

Hey man, I get the feeling that you've been pretty busy the last few days, so no worries there, but just to let you know its your turn in the RP. Twlight and I have already had turns so to speak, so I'm just waiting for you to respond, when you have the time of course. Oh and if you have time, check out the updates to my articles Ishida Ryuichi and his zanpakutou ADA. I'm sure you'll enjoy them both. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 19:17, April 30, 2011 (UTC)

I've ended the RP in Indescribable Battle: Juusanseiza v. Haru, due to Twlight's attempts to push his story ideas without first getting consent from the rest of the participating members, and ignoring my requests to stop. I'm not sure if this is the ending you would have wanted, but I dont appreciate being taken advantage of. If you want to do another RP with Tsuchimikado or one with other characters is fine by me. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 20:49, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Triumvirate
Do you think when completed that Masanori Kawahiru could challenge a Triumvirate character. Mind you he is only about 78% completed. As well he is the foremost grandmaster of Philosophy the strongest energy.: The Twilight of Your Despair 20:17, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

I can understand the reasons for him not being able to, but why shouldn't he is the question. While Masanori isn't a friend of the Kawahiru family he still fights against enemies or bad guys. Beside I intend to make all of his article worthy of 580/600 battle stats. And yes at based level he is no that much stronger than Haru or Kiyoshi but his still hold more power than both of them.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:09, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Thats abit bias as you have to make a main villian to be that strong. And for the record you didn't defeat Haru not really if he releases his bankai than he has full use of every soul for one second. However, as then souls then vanish and his zanpakuto is empty again. He is waiting to use it to power a very strong weapon that requires over 60,000 souls to power it. Regardless of anything I was only curious I don't want to use him like that. And tell Kenji that you are the winner and fight in the tournament so it will end and the Zettaiteki can have someone to use it.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:46, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

P.S. I will be make a location that is made of nothing but Philosophy so it would explain why the Triumvirate cannot kill him so easily.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:46, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Point made. Now the only thing about Zettaiteki that is godlike is that it can cut sekkiseki and reason like Masanori's Zanpakuto and like the divine ark it cannot be destroyed.: The Twilight of Your Despair 22:39, May 2, 2011 (UTC)

Quit
I already have however I just might rejoin on my birthday next week. I am doing this as if I am still becoming corrupt after I am 21 than I shouldn't be apart of a group. And the corruption isn't any single person or problem. Rather my own feeling unbalanced over the course since I joined till now. As for if yuu have used anything or made anything from my works that yes you can still use it. You just cannot create or use them for new characters or create new characters of any species I have created. Like how Void created his own Kosumosukihaku he still can use it for it is his character but he cannot create any new ones. This is until futher notice.: The Twilight of Your Despair 16:05, May 3, 2011 (UTC)

Howdy Pal
Whew, I've finally ran into some free time :P Anyway, although I'd like to win the tourney so its something I can say "Oh, I won that", I can't help but feel this would be too much of a gift, pal. So I won't be accepting an automatic victory. If I did, I think I wouldn't try as hard as I could do to punch out a truly memorable meeting, so I'd prefer to leave the choice of victor up to the judges, whoever they may be, and see where things go from there.

 * Meh, what can I say? I prefer rolling with the punches nine times outta ten and seeing what comes of it :P But thank you much, pal. I hope I don't disappoint in our up-coming match. But let me just say that flattery, while nice and indeed welcome, will not make me go any easier on Hiroya lol. In all seriousness though, thanks for the confidence. Its easy enough to see when someone tries harder in an RP. They spend more time on their posts, think through strategies and generally make it more descriptive and enjoyable, which you certainly do. Describing their appearance during the motions is something I kinda copied (its only kinda, so it doesn't count lol) off you, to be honest, so thanks for posting on here pal :)


 * Anywho, that free time I was talking about? Scrap that. One certain annoying history teacher just threw a rather large spanner I would love to hit her with into the works, which to say has pissed me off something fierce. You see, I kinda pissed off early from school today and my teacher happened to decide she'd hold class afterall, after telling us more than a week ago that she wasn't gonna bother her backside. Since I was at home I wasn't there for said class, missing 3 essays she was expecting might I add. Now I'm up a certain well known creek without a paddle, staring down the gauntlet of three history essays that are about 4 pages long each, all to be done for tomorrow :( And to top it all off I had a row with my year head over the phone, much to my sister's growing joy and my families annoyance, and I am due one hell of a bullecking come tomorrow morning.

Now I request you two finish by next wednesday in one week. For at that time it will decide if I will ask to rejoin or go along with the group I made.: The Twilight of Your Despair 21:12, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah that sounds fine to me, pal. The amazing this is, that bullecking I was expecting consisted of "I expect more of a 6th former" lol. I very nearly burst out laughing at her! Anyways, I'm stuck in school until around 4.00pm my time, so If you wanna start it up, I'll make my post when I'm at home.

One of the problems I'm going to have in this fight in Hiroya's skill in Kidō... And here I was hoping you'd use that as a trump card! This is getting interesting. You'll find I rarely pick faults with my RP partners. I'll trust your judgment, and simply enjoy myself :P As I've said, I enjoy rolling with the punches regardless. But, if you've any questions about things I post, then fire away, though most of the things are already listed on Kenji's article lol. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  17:46, May 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've read Hiroya's article enough times to know that he can make even the simplest spell lethal lol. (referenced the Shō in the RP, which should make for a nice surprise later on, if you wanna exploit it). Believe me, that was my plan, 'cause I'm trying to use his lightning attuned abilities as a surprise for later :P <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  18:24, May 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Your up again, pal. Oh yeah, go and watch the new Thor film, if you ever get the chance, dude. It is awesome! <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  10:40, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Pretty much the same approach I take, though I'd tend to let Kenji take the backlash of several attacks so he's taking continuous damage over the course of the battle, like I tend to do whenever he fights Van or Margin, though with those two, there's little choice but to take a few hits lol. Anyways, your turn again, pal. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  11:47, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

Haha! If your wondering, its the Surītaitanzu form he's using now. I was right, though. Hiroya's Kidō is gonna be difficult to get around :P Your up again, dude. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  12:22, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay, I kinda made my post before reading your message. If you want, I can change it to reflect that, though I'll leave the decision up to you. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  13:07, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Don't get much fairer than that :P I done a slight exchange of blades, no injuries, to make it appear like a more realistic fight - though I took Hiroya's skills into account as well, you'll find. Your up again, dude. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  13:23, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * And I'm glad you actually did that. Made my next move a lot easier to perform :P Anywho, its your turn again, dude. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  14:31, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

Now now, who said anything about dodging? You'll see the relevance of my post about five messages up now lol. Your up again, dude :P <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  15:48, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * I had that well in mind, don't worry, pal :P I do this with Kenji all the time during RP's, 'cause its a good way of surprising folks, making things more interesting and creating an opening. Not to mention showing off Kenji's stubbornness and endurance quite clearly :) So I've had plenty of practice showing how badly he came out of it as well over the months I've been here. Usually that takes a post afterwards, though, so cheers for the patience. If anything, he's gutsy lol. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  16:28, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh, I'm enjoying this alright. The length of some of my posts show just how much. I usually only post this much when I'm RPing with either Raze or Kou. Your up again, dude. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  16:54, May 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * That might be a good idea, considering lol. If your for busting out the powerful spells, then I guess I better stay on my toes, encase I get a nasty surprise. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  17:26, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

Whew! That took everything I could possibly muster from Kenji's article just to avoid lol. Things are poor when you need to address their personality (his skill in mis-direction) just to save your skin lol. Pal, that was nothing short of epic :P I never thought you'd use Hado 95, thought I can certainly see why you'd want to. Its strength is incredible. Your turn, dude. <font color="FireBrick">Kenji-Taichō <font color="FireBrick">(Talk)  18:29, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

Quadrumvirate Origins
Well, since I'm not doing any RP's at the moment, I figure it would be a good show, to do an introduction RP(s) where the members of the future Quadrumvirate meet. I'm not sure if this is how it was intended, but most of the other members seem to defer to Iwanaga as the unofficial leader. Whether this was just because or the fact that I was the first to create one, I'm not sure, but I think an RP or two demonstrating how they met would be a good way to kick things off. Though I am...confused in a way. Out of all of the Quadrumvirate, Iwanaga is the only one without any reality-warping abilities or otherwise wtf powers, but...well nevermind. Anyways just wanted to run that by you and get your thoughts. --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 06:42, May 6, 2011 (UTC)

Well, in all honesty, Iwanaga simply doesnt have a Zanpakutou right now. Its written in the Trivia part of her character. Not that she even needs it. Her Earth-based magic more than makes up for it, and she's certaintly strong enough as is. Even though she IS a villian, her powers are still very much defined but open ended.

I've said it before, a powerful character is more than just how badass they can be in combat. Orochimaru was one of the Naruto series, deadliest villians, I think even more so compared to Madara. Unlike the latter, Orochimaru didnt hide who he was, the man was a bonifide psychopath, yet he could get people to follow him into the pits of hell with a grin.

He manipulated an entire country into launching war against an ally. Orochimaru worked with people. He didnt hide behind the BS, wtf abilities of his bloodline, or the ridiculous plot elements introduced solely for his benefit. What Orochimaru did was feasible, and realistic. He manipulated peoples hopes and dreams, and twisted them into his own plans. He exploited human fears, insecurity, and tossed them aside when he was finished. Thats what makes a villian great in my opinion, not whether they possess all-powerful abilities, but whether they can make use of their basic human skills, to get the job down. Aizen in a way falls in the same category. Aside from his Zanpakutou, he was a master at manipulating people. He held an aura that others felt themselves drawn to, even after knowing that he would probably kill them in the end. Well anyways, sorry for the rant, needed to get it out, but how do you want to go about doing the RP? Did Iwanaga seek him out? Or was it chance? Did your character seek Iwanaga or the Jusanseiza out? Any ideas? --- Illuminate Void (Talk) 15:17, May 6, 2011 (UTC)
