Welcome to Gaia! ::

So Sage. I saw you mentioned in your backstory on your profile a Shikai.

Given the guild is going for a reboot for everyone and we're all restarting from the beginning again you can't have Shikai quite yet.

You'll get it again but the plot is set so far in the future that were your character from the previous time frame as it seems to imply he'd be as old as a Captain Commander and obviously extremely powerful.

Sorry if this didn't come across clear but I can't allow one person to have advantages over anyone else. It's not the style we want.

It's a fair assumption given we're probably handing out a lot more stuff at the start but Shikai isn't one of those things. It's a good plot point in character growth you see. We can't let you just have that straight away.

Not to mention it's a solid point in character growth.

Nope. It means basically your potential aptitude with Kido.

What we'll be doing is after everyone's first mission is assessing what type of character they'll be playing and what things to reward them with after missions. As you may have seen we're working on a project to finish the Kido list with the help of the member base. So as not to make Kido replace Zanpakto we're going to use different restrictions on it from usual.

Probably what you'll see is that you're able to learn nigh on every spell but can only (legally) take a certain number for a mission. What this means is you'd register yourself to only use say. 5 or a little more Hado. Of course this is with the Shinigami authorities who are trying to detect Kido usage on Earth so they can detect possible rogue parties. Let's say then you use a Bakudo. You can do this in RP however it might also include in RP punishments. Of course if they don't catch you then it doesn't matter. You could just lie and say one of your enemies cast it.

When we look at those stats they're mostly for a combination of 'Fudge Rolls' and so we can guess at what kind of character you'll have.

As for Kido Slots by later times you'll have way more. It's just having access to 240 spells right from the get go would be ridiculous. Especially knowing how powerful they get in the 80s zone.

We were talking about this earlier actually.

Probably everything up to Kido 20 on Bakudo and Hado lists as well as one speciality Kido up to 40.

Of course you can automatically begin learning everything that's deemed available after that. Another thing. It's likely that around half of the Kido past that point may also be awarded from missions for you to learn for yourself and then destroy or to bring back for the 5th squad to archive. Another call you'll be able to make there.

One other thing. I was thinking about the Kido Restrictions to what you can use. Probably if it was a unified attack like a raid where everyone was there the restrictions would be lifted as the chaos would make it impossible to tell who is firing anyway.

Also during missions it may be possible to radio into main base and tell them you want to switch designated Kido.

Dude my honour is like. -32. I kill peasants and spit on ladies.

-33 it is.

Exactly.

It's why I have such low honour. Becoming King is gonna be hard.
