If we establish someone as a MAIN character, then we are elevating those characters above the rest of the cast, and in a Fanon Canon, which is much more about roleplaying and using our characters than following any true story, that is highly detrimental to unity. 

As far as I am concerned, I think a more sandboxy feel with some good plot threads would work much better than a solid story. Storylines are nice and all, but speaking from my own perspective, I am mainly here to roleplay my characters, explore their abilities and personalities and interact with other characters roleplayed by other people. I really don't care for the story beyond being a means to an end to fulfill that desire.

Someone who wants to naturally expand upon the canon storyline and the plots presented therein and carry them to their final conclusion would certainly be better served by simply writing their own personal fanfic where they would have complete control over all of the variables. This is why I consider Roleplaying to be an entirely different ballgame than Storytelling.

During Storytelling, the characters exist for the story, and are meant to fulfill a general purpose in it, generally affording the story much higher depth and quality. In Roleplaying, the story exists FOR the characters, and as a result the story is weakened but the characters are greatly strengthened. I don't think that many people would find it that compelling to play supporting cast to a couple random characters they have zero investment in, so I would vote nay for Kazui and Ichika.

How about this kind of layout:

• Introduction summary:
• Chapter, where we role-play our mother-loving brains out.
• Summary to advance the story.
• Chapter, where we again have our fill of role-play and all that entails.
• Summary -- you see where I'm going with this, right?
• Chapter, what a surprise! More role-play; there's explosions, maybe a few deaths, and someone has their pants stolen. Not necessarily in that order, mind you.
• Summary.

You get the picture. This does away with the concept of a "main character", as all the story-threads are presented beforehand and what we do with them is up to us. What we do dictates what comes next. Only issue is that it becomes slightly episodic, but that can have its advantageous as well.

Just a thought.

I like Kenji's idea. Regardless if people are doing this to "just roleplay," the FC does in fact have a storyline that will have to advance in some shape or form.

I vote we steal Z's Seia's pants.

Then Glacies could put a task force together in order to find them, as a favor for his old captain.

It's probably so he doesn't have to watch her walk around with no pants.

I'm gonna redo my roster here.

• Haruto Shirane - main
• Shunsui Kyōraku/Rukia Kuchiki - as Captain-Commander(s)
• Minato Kuramoto and Hinata Kusuhana - support roles
• Shizuka Hanazono - other main (pending role decisions).

As for the Coven members I'll be making, I'll leave them out for now since most of them will likely be rank-and-file members. Tenmu Kuchiki will likely be the only actual character I want to keep around long-term, but we'll see when we cross that bridge.

At the moment I only have Takayoshi Oda to offer for the FC, but I'll do an actual list if I come up with any other characters I want to use.

I had to take out Seijuro and the others because of their power-scaling being beyond what we want for the story, so essentially I'm down to three characters.

Withdrawing from the FC for now. Personal reasons, and I had some ideas that wouldn't work out with this iteration of the FC.

I don't think you should fully withdraw, but hey.
