I hope you enjoy the title. Anyway onto the matter I would like to have addressed. As the title hints to, there have been a few profiles that have had placed in their profiles, or have pointed out in roleplays that the are mixed with some sort of mythical creature. Now, I have mainly picked up everything I know in the Bleach universe from the show and manga. All the shinigami are souls that came from the world of the living and trained to be able to learn how to use Zanpakuto to protect the many lost soul in the universe and keep order within the circle of life. There was even a case where an "animal" was able to join the ranks as well, even becoming a Captain. So it's obvious that if one would like to roleplay as a Neko person, or even Alligator that it should be allowed. But should animals that don't technically exist be allowed the same, or even Half-breeds? It's as if they came from no where, and Half-Breeds cause more questions. Some make sense, while others are just flat out ridiculous and somewhat insulting... Now mind you, I'm not trying to kick at other's for their creativity but I personally like to keep things as realistic and true to the anime series as possible.

So I ask you, should Mythical Creatures be allowed to be Roleplaying Characters in the guild?

Although the last two do not actually have that they are written in their profiles, through interviews, they assure me that they are..

First off, I have this in two RPC's like this.

Hoshi Tenshige

Kage Tenshige

Now this is the spirit realm my I add. Elves are seen in many lore as a race that did exist that went into hiding. Also, I am not the only one that has put mythical creatures into their RPC. Neither has Ace or Luci. Here is a link to the other RPC. Now I think we should allow it, then again, I am one of the ones in question, therefore I do not think my vote counts. If it does, I vote yes to it.

This is fine with me

Eh, honestly, I have to agree in this matter, a bit.
My belief is that they shouldn't be aloud IF, and ONLY IF, their races are, at least, a bit known to us, since yeah, you spent a long time, researching, and you could find some theory of what this creature was or is able to do, but what about the others? If you can't support this information, then it could create a path to gmod or something.
That's my concern. And I haven't had the ocassion to think about it until now. How will be able to control these factors, and make our roleplays as fair and believable as possible.

My only problem would be people getting special powers per say from their species. If they are to have a limitation on their species power Then I vote YES on this.

Back before I was a Vice Captain and a simple member of the Council we had a conversation about this before but it was never actually passed. Back then, and today I agree on a simple matter, that it should mainly be a look, and not an increase in stats to a degree. For instance the animal captain in Bleach, yeah he has a wolf like head, and a fur covered body, but it does not make him weaker than any of the other captains, nor does it make him stronger. I believe because of that, that no "beast" like shinigami, or vizard, to even Arrancar should be given special stats simply because of what they are if they cannot give reasonable stats that don't just make them invincible.

Now for instance if a creature had wings, this would mean more than likely they have the ability to fly, even if they are a simple soldier without the ability of air walking, that would be the only extra lift. Or if they have animal attributes, such as like being a dog or wolf normally their hearing would be beyond that of others, and so would their sense of smell. But as to adding on to them having more powers, such as breathing fire as a dragon, or so on to that, I don't think it should really happen.
Mostly it would have to be a look thing, and if they "are" going to add certain stat increases, it "has" to be within reason. If they do dragon and add on that they can shoot out a fire ball from their hands, feet, or mouth that takes up the size of a damn football field, that would be an issue, but if they went with a reasonable shot of like a bowling ball or something, then we could understand that.

So I would go with having some animal like creatures, even if it is of a supernatural sorts, as long as it exists within known lore, and if it is one that doesn't exist or one you cannot find on your own, come to me about it if it is passed that supernatural types are allowed. I sadly enough have a very large knowledge of many different lore and the creatures within them.

Honestly I would love to see this. Maybe new ideas coming for me with this if its passed so I vote yes

As Redd and Krono have stated, only if it doesn't add considerable stat advantages. Mostly it'd have to be for asthetics with the only acceptable "abilities" to either be weakly combat or totally comical.

I vote yes that we should have them

But Krono there is a limit on it like lets use Chaos for example. Chaos have dragon in him but Chaos can't breath a breath weapon like a dragon can because he is Shinigami. Also Chaos can't grow wings or a tail at will because he is shinigami. The only time I would say a shinigami that has dragon in them can have wings and/or a tail if that person was like Captain of Squad 7 Sajin Komamura, that they can have the wings and tail but the person can't reside them into their body it just stays out because the only races that is known that they can morph their body are Arrancars and Fullbringers.

With 7 votes "Yes" and only 2 votes "No", I think it's time to wrap this up. The council has spoken and is allowing Mythical Creatures to be playable roleplaying characters. Tystra, do you magic.
