BleachitP: Reborn recruitment.
« on: April 20, 2011, 03:41:43 AM »
Yes, I realize I should have probably posted this elsewhere. But you know why it's here.

For those of you who are not familiar, BleachitP: Reborn is an ongoing freeform game going on at the Giant In The Playground forums. We've been getting a lot of drop-outs lately, which I find very sad because the game does have a lot of potential. But if this keeps up, the game might die entirely.

Now, I know many of you aren't exactly fans of GiantITP's moderation (to put it mildly). I joined those forums for the single, express purpose of participating in that RP. I've been treated VERY nicely by all the people I found on those boards, to the point that when they needed to elect a number of "GMs" to help decide IC or OOC conflict, I was considered a choice.

I know that for all of Tite Kubo's asspulls, there are still people who can remember Bleach's good times. We've been working really hard to make it a better story.

Won't you join us?

I take it that freeform means no mechanics? Seems tempting, since it takes less time and effort, but the location is a huge turn off.

It is impossible to get banned if you just post in RPs, as far as I can tell. Different sections of the boards have different communities and are more or less heavily moderated. But I'm sure some of our refugees can tell you that better...

The previous game ran for a year or three with dozens of players, and had an actual ending. I was one of the first players, and was never really that active, though I can take "can of worms credit" for introducing the group that ended up containing the most prominent villain. :p

The tier system in a nutshell:

Tier 5: An expert cartographer or a decent marksman.
Tier 4: An expert marksman.
Tier 3: An expert marksman, cartographer and chef who can tie strong knots and is trained in hostage negotiation or a marksman so good he can shoot down every bullet fired by a minigun while armed with a rusted single-shot pistol that veers to the left.
Tier 2: Someone with teleportation, mind control, time manipulation, intangibility, the ability to turn into an exact duplicate of anything, or the ability to see into the future with perfect accuracy.

Yes, freeform means no mechanics beyond common courtesy and squaring things out with the players involved beforehand.

I haven't received a single warning from the Freeform area. The ONE time I got a warning was for thread necroing, which was an honest mistake... and outside the freeform PbP area to boot.

Yes, Gendou Ikari analyzed Kubo's series, tore out the asspulls, and then uploaded it into his Brazilian alter-ego.

Thanks Kuro. Will decide if I could join in after May. Neck deep in stuff at this period of time.

Well. Primary sword emits light or absorbs light. Meaning you either fight with the blade as bright as the sun, or an invisible blade. Secondary sword attacks shadows only and is actually the real primary weapon.

Y'know, if it were anyone else, I'd read the thread and bounce. But since it's you, Kuro, and possibly because the stale blood left over from my Gaia online days (waaay long dead), I think I'll saunter on over to GitP and make an account.

Noone says I have to read and argue why their understanding of mechanics is wrong, right? And hey, I've seen some good homebrew over there...

It's freeform. Mechanics LITERALLY mean zilch in that game.  :P

Well. Primary sword emits light or absorbs light. Meaning you either fight with the blade as bright as the sun, or an invisible blade. Secondary sword attacks shadows only and is actually the real primary weapon.
More important would be personality and species.
Options for the latter include:
  • Shinigami
    • Foreign shinigami equivalent (needs a good excuse to be present)
  • Hollow
    • Arrancar
  • Unpowered human
    • Fullbringer (human medium)
    • Quincy
  • Bount
  • Samsara

Though Hollow and Quincy are out of the question for that powerset, obviously.
Don't discount weaker options - for one thing there's a secret organisation of mostly unpowered humans with gadgets that let them fight spiritual entities.

Some dramatic figure to shake up the story would be appreciated right now.

Also, helpful guide for getting started.



tl;dr - You don't need to know anything about Bleach for this game. Just play a human with spiritual powers. And you can have multiple characters, or request that someone play one of your supporting characters.
