Well...
Well, to be honest, the whole "multiple Soul Societies" thing is actually just a fan theory that's so widely accepted that it might as well be fact.

But look at these facts:


 * Soul Society looks like the old days of Japan (I forget what exact period, but I think it's the Edo Period).
 * Everyone in Soul Society has Japanese names.
 * So far, the only area of the living world focused on has been Karakura Town, an area of Tokyo, Japan.
 * All the people who have died and gone to Soul Society are from Japan.
 * All the people born in Soul Society have Japanese names.

So this presents the following problems:


 * Where do the people who die in the rest of the world go?
 * Who handles the deaths of the people in the rest of the world?
 * If the single Soul Society handled the whole world, why is everyone in Soul Society from Japan? And why does Soul Society look like the olden days of Japan?

So it stands to reason that there's different Soul Societies for the different parts and cultures of the worlds. It might even be possible that some of the other Soul Societies don't even use swords. They may use guns, or bows.

Now, the other problem with your character is that she was born in the living world, died and went to Soul Society, then became a Shinigami.

The problem there is that people who die and go to Soul Society aroe far less likely to become Shinigami than people who were born there. And by "far less likely", I mean there are so few Shinigami who were born in the living world that you could probably count them on just your fingers and toes. And Shinigami who were originally born in the living, died, and got sent to Soul Society are much, much weaker than the Shinigami who were born in Soul Society.

The whole life-and-death system in Bleach is a lot less two-dimensional than most people would think.

So as you can see, this character breaks a lot of the Bleach rules.

Now, what you could do is start a section for the Soul Societies of other cultures. I was expecting something like this to happen when the Wiki got more popular, so you could be the first person to jumpstart the whole "Shinigami of other cultures" thing.

I don't think there would be a Soul Society for all of Europe at once. So you should probably make a Soul Society for the specific "culture region" that your character is from. Like... The French culture Soul Society would be way different than the Spanish culture Soul Society, right? Both are in Europe, but would likely have their own individual Soul Societies.

Am I being too complicated? Well, you're a very intelligent person (I admire your work on the Naruto Fanon Wiki ^_^), so I'm sure you're following. I'm just worried that it might be a bit much for someone who only knows Bleach from the games...

Though I guess this shows that it's a bad idea to jump headfirst into things you don't know much about. That's why I usually do a lot of research before I make a character for... well, for anything, really. One time I roleplayed a scholar from Victorian France, so I did some heavy research into the Victorian Era of France so I could make sure the character fit the times. Same goes for making an original character for an anime series. You need to know more about the series before you jump into the fandom, right?

But still, you're a very intelligent person, so I'm sure you'll get by. ^_^
