Human Clans Facts

[angelmage99]

I think it's a good idea to educate everyone about the clans. Especially if the clan is made up like the Ryuichi. This is only for if the person is allowing other people into the Clans.

The Bounts: are a group of humans with special abilities. The Bounts live by consuming human souls, which potentially gives them everlasting youth; according to Kisuke Urahara, they have historically been known as vampires. Like Soul Reapers, they each have a unique weapon known as a doll, a familiar equivalent to the Soul Reaper zanpakutō. Like a zanpakutō, a doll is its creator's power given physical form. However, instead of taking the form of actual weapons like zanpakutō do, dolls are mostly self-sufficient creatures when released, although they tend to be used as weapons in various ways such as a large battleaxe or a snake, as a sword and whip. A use of the German language is an apparent theme among the Bount given that several of their dolls have names based on German words.

Quincy: Quincy are a clan of humans who, over many centuries, became spiritually aware. In doing so they devised their own brand of spiritual powers; they most commonly reshape spiritual particles into various types of bow and arrows, but can also concentrate spiritual energy into the form of swords or explosives. At their height, Quincies used their powers to combat the hollows, protecting the inhabitants of the human world with a success rate greater than that of the Soul Reapers. Unlike the Soul Reapers, who purify the souls of hollows allowing them to rest in peace, Quincy destroyed the hollow, soul and all. This created an imbalance between the worlds of the living and the dead, threatening to destroy the universe. To prevent this, the Soul Reapers almost exterminated the Quincy.

Ryuichi: The Ryuichi are a clan of humans who are born with keen spiritual awareness. Legend states that they were shaman and storytellers may centuries ago. They do not stick to a type of weapon however most chose a staff or sword to reflect their heritage. Their powers reflect their childhood experience. For example Yuri grew up reading and listen to stories from all over the world. Because of this she has the ability to summon the powers of magical creatures. Most Ryuichi live in hiding and only care form themselves and their family, because of this the Shinigami have seen no need to reduce their numbers.

Do not post unless it's a new group. Do not post about 'hey come to this play or what did I need to fix up. Go pm if need be.

If making a magi please PM me so I can help out and make sure that we don't get contradicting story lines.

Magi: Magi are a group of spiritually aware humans who have learned a very usefully technique. They can create Zanpakuto. The zanpakuto can be of the form the crafter makes chooses (as long as it is an Item, preferably a weapon). They can bestow the shikai and bankai from a list which the Magi have mastered. This seems cool, but there is a large drawback; even the weakest of Zanpakuto permanently drain reitsu from the crafter. This means that every Zanpakuto made will lower the Crater's combat effectiveness. The only other power which they gain naturally is the pylonic portal, which opens what appears to be a teal gargunta. With this however, you do not "teleport" to the destination, you travel through the portal to the destination which means it is not instant, but Reitsu can be sensed before arrival to prevent the user from being caught off guard when he/she arrives. There are four branches:
True blood: In Egypt.They have been completely cut off from the other branches.
Crafters: They are based in Greece.They are attempting to produce as many Zanpakuto as possible. The other branches are curious how they get such a large supply of souls.
The War born: They are in and around Japan. They are considered the new main branch.
Newly Sighted: They were in east coast U.S.A. They defended a Magi who became a Vizard(which is a big sin in the Magi). They were slaughtered by the War born as punishment. The were only two survivors.

To figure out how much reitsu you have as a Magi; roll a 1d4 on your profile post (It is a posting action, and it cannot be edited so there wont be any cheaters). Edit your post after you see your die roll, You remember the die roll number and add it to four. Compare that number with the chart below to see what it equals.

1-3: Human without training.
4: quincy without full power
5: Sixth Seat Reaper
6: Fourth Seat Reaper
7: Second seat reaper
8: Captain.

The branchs meet every full moon to celebrate Curtain birthday's and discuus anything which needs to be discussed. The Monarchy system used is based on several factors from power to purity of blood to Intelligence.
Every branch has (Listed by rank in their Branch):
Count's(Moderaters of their branch.)
Sire's(Moderaters to the whole Clan and Trainers of the warriors of their branch)
Templar's(Zanpakuto crafters. They are given enough training to protect against most Shinigami.)
Knight's(Fully Trained Warriors)
Sqire's(Knights in training)
Laok's(Only in the Japanese branch. Units attempting to create spells for use to any magi.)
As for the units who actually make the big decisions in the Clan there are Five units who are givin titles. The are all called Espugnare,although they have personal titles in addition. They are:
Gran rey
Rex
Dominare
Don
Adon
They are located in the branch they were born to. In order to become an Espugnare you must pass three tests which include a Lore Knowledge, Judgement from a Serephim, and a dangerous ritual which is only performed during the Full moon.Recently when the Newly Sighted was "punished" by the Japanese branch the Espugnare known as Adon was one of the casualties. No one has been able to fullfill his seat.
Colors
Yes Even the Magi have a code when color is involved. It only deals with Hair and clothes though.
Blue: Has no meaning but is a color often used in Magi Garb. It reminds them of the seas of the planet they share and the sky which is over every branch.
Purple: Is the color of royalty. All that is required by Magi law to be royalty is to be the First born, of the first born, of the first born. Then you, your first born male and then (you may have to negotiate with a Espugnare but) your first born female are all considered Royalty. Got it? Three Generation of first born.
Pink: Is the color of power. This comes from the days of Rome. By wearing Pink* you are stating that you Kickass and are a great warrior. Not for the faint of heart.
Green: Defender. Guardian. Protector. You will do anything to protect your people and land.
Any pale color is Death. This is something that Only the Espugnare dare to wear, and then they only wear it in battle.

*Any Insignia, any of the color in your hair(Evan artificially), at least half of an article of clothing is the color, or most of your visable clothing is the color.

ShadowHunters

ShadowHunters are a race of humans with the sight. They come in any ethnicity, and any culture, and are united by the blood that pulses through their hearts, these particular Hunters are the PureBlood because they were born into a ShadowHunter family and have only the sight and the tools they have made to hunt and kill hollow.


Their government is Parliament style mixed with Roman Republic. At the top are the Clave, a body of all ShadowHunters 18+, and the Consul. The Consul is the commander of the army. The power is equal between the Clave and Consul because:
1. The Clave must give permission to the Consul to wage war, to draft more troops, etc.
2. The Consul may veto any laws he feels are unfair, the Clave may also.
3. Both may suggest bills and acts



There are many ShadowHunter sub-divisions.(listed from common class, to rarest class. 1 - common, more ---- means rarer)

ShadowKnights-Armored defenders of the guild, they are the main infantry in war

ShadowRangers-Bowed defenders of the guild, main artillery in war. Mainly quincy and rogues seeking shelter from Shinigami.

ShadowMages--Strong Spell users, rarer, but main widespread artillery in war.

ShadowAssasins--Assasins, carry many style's of weapons. Any clan type

ShadowForgers--Mainly Magi, make all kinds of weapons. Even some
Zampaktou. Only 100 alive to date that work for the Clave.

ShadowCatchers--- Only 30 alive to date. They catch high power hollow and work with the forgers to put them into blades. They are rare because the job requires much skill, and it is a hard profession.

ShadowCancelers---- There has only ever been 3 in the last 2000 years. They are rare, and the most powerful. They can null all reiatsu around them, and can use this power to actually attack people within their null range by increasing the pressure enough to crush their reiatsu core and make them nothing but a helpless dead soul. The maximum range ever gained was 3.584 miles. Kido, shikai, Bankai, sonido, ressurection, e.t.c is unable to be used in this range. They are invaluable when human armies face hollow armies, and the null effect can be directed, allowing one side to attack and the other to be helpless.

(To make a ShadowCanceler PLEASE PM me, you will need to know how to determine the strength of it.)
