Warning:I have a lot of questions

[theendoftheroad]

Okay so, I didn't notice this board where you can actually ask questions until now and I have been here for a month working on various characters and haven't completed one yet but I guess its better than never.Im sorry if some of the questions I have are already answered in the forums or the manga but I haven't seen the answers yet so I feel like I might as well check
1: what are the requirements for the exequisas third position
2: is it possible for a vanderneich quincy to leave the organization and if possible what happens to their powers when they leave
3: can Konuhai's left hand position only be taken up by an npc or can it be taken by a person and if it can be taken what are the requirements
4:Can technology be feasibly used by arrancar or is technology itself not allowed in this version of Hueco mundo
5: how does the universe here diverge from the regular bleach universe
6: what happens to an animal if it dies in the bleach universe, do they become a beast clansmen if they come to Soul Society, regular shinigami, what happens if theyre turned into hollows or do they even have spirits when they die
7:How many exequisas members are there
8:Are the exequisas subordinates or their independent faction and force, if they are servants how much power do the espada have over them
9:Is being a member of the discord required since I was never really good with that app
Again I am sorry if these questions have already been answered by the fanbase.Simply curious about the answers for characters that I have plans to make in the future.Thank you for your time reading this and I will put any information given to good use.

No need to be sorry. I've been working on the same character concept for a few years now, and it still hasn't clicked yet. I can't give answers for all those questions, but I'll try to cover as many as I can.
1: Class three, that's it.
2: Quincy can quit the Vandenreich, but the reich will try to hunt them down. They'll also lose any powers that were exclusive to the reich.
3: I'm not sure on the requirements, but in theory it's an open slot.
4: There's nothing that rules out technological advancement in Hueco Mundo, but as far as I'm aware, nobody has tried to bring Las Noches in line with Soul Society's technology levels.
5: To start with, nothing from canon happened.
6: I don't have an answer for that one, you'd have to try asking staff.
7: None at all, right now. I've been working on one, but haven't made any progress.
8: Independent, their leader is equal to the Espada.
9: It isn't required, but it is recommended.

Thanks, I really appreciate the input hranfngull and I promise I will use it the best I can, though there still is one question that I feel like wasn't cleared up.Just something I am curious about so I can fit in better and incorporate myself with the story and that is what is currently going on in hueco Mundo as of right now,I noticed the Cuarta espada was gone, and also what has happened to it over the years of this sight to have it end up where it is now. Thank you for your time and I hope you dont have to do any digging to get an answer for this one, and again thanks for the answers, I really do appreciate it.

Hey! I'll do my best to answer some of these questions as well as a long-running member of the site, or at least the ones that could use a little elaboration.

3: can Konuhai's left hand position only be taken up by an npc or can it be taken by a person and if it can be taken what are the requirements

With the exceptions of the Vandenreich Emperor, the Soul King and Lucifer, almost any rank can be taken by a player-character, though the higher the rank, the more difficult this is to accomplish, and, most likely, the more powerful an opponent you will have to defeat. You would need to be an incredibly powerful individual indeed, with a personality that appeals to Kouhai, for him to accept you as his Left.


4:Can technology be feasibly used by arrancar or is technology itself not allowed in this version of Hueco mundo

Absolutely! Note that Las Noches is a bit behind Soul Society, due to not having a division explicitly aimed at technological development (plus arrancar don't usually get along with each other as well as Shinigami), but there's no reason you can't implement such a thing, and as has been shown during the army-battles between Las Noches and Soul Society, they do possess some level of technological know-how.


5: how does the universe here diverge from the regular bleach universe

I'm going to elaborate a little bit from what was said by Hraf. It's less than "nothing Canon has happened" and more that "An alternate universe version of Canon happened". Many Canon characters have analogs on the site (Aizen, Yamamoto, even Ichigo had an analog for awhile although said individual no longer crops up in major site plot discussions). As far as the basic core idea of the site, the setting is very much the same, albeit there are a few more factions than were present at any given time in the Canon (Soul Society, Las Noches and the Vandenreich are essentially locked in a three-way war). Most of the differences between site and Canon start cropping up largely due to information that was presented after the site got started (namely information about the Zero Division and the Soul King, and how Soul Society got started, which wasn't available when the site was originally built). For the most part though, you can generally assume an analogous setting to the Bleach normal setting.

6: what happens to an animal if it dies in the bleach universe, do they become a beast clansmen if they come to Soul Society, regular shinigami, what happens if theyre turned into hollows or do they even have spirits when they die

While I wouldn't strongly advise solely relying on the Bleach anime for this, we have occasionally used it for precedence, and at least one episode showed that animals can indeed become Hollows, or otherwise normally pass on in the Soul Cycle.


7:How many exequisas members are there

Presently there are no player controlled Exequias. That doesn't mean there are zero (the Exequias organization still exists), but that the organization at present is manned pretty much entirely by faceless NPC's, and as such it's played relatively little role in most occurrences.

8:Are the exequisas subordinates or their independent faction and force, if they are servants how much power do the espada have over them

The Exequias do not directly serve the Espada, and are technically separate from the standard army of Las Noches. With that said, it's still a bad idea for an Exequias to think that just because an Espada doesn't have formal authority over them, that it's safe to mouth off to them. Las Noches is a very Darwinistic society, where might makes right, and very few of its denizens would bat an eye if an Exequias got their head pulverized by an Espada, just because they believed they had diplomatic immunity. While Las Noches technically has a proper power structure, it is ultimately superseded by the simple rule that "the strongest make the rules".

9:Is being a member of the discord required since I was never really good with that app

As Hraf says. It's highly recommended that you at least try and build a character, but is not an absolute requirement to join the Discord. We'll welcome you either way. There's nothing wrong with starting off with a barebones application and working up from the bottom, however, and we'll be more than happy to try and help you work out any details for a character.

Okay, so I think I nearly got all of the information that I need for the characters that I am working and the last ones I have are fairly simple and probably don't need that much explaining, at the very least I hope so.These last ones are more just to see how I can roleplay my character without it seeming like its breaking the rules so here we go, and with this I think ill be finally ready to finish at least one of them.
10:I noticed that from the strongest rankings there was a captain of squad 8 that disappeared from the rankings, did he just leave the site or did that character die or become inactive for an in story reason
11:What are the rules for entry to the Human world for Hueco Mundo?How long are they allowed to stay there, are they allowed to go there without the permission of Konuhai, and how much are they allowed to actually do there before they are ordered to come and back? However, are they only allowed to go there while on missions
12:What should I do for a gillian's history, arrancar or otherwise.The Gillian, from what I could tell, are an amalgamation of several hollow souls that have fused into one for massive strength.Do I just include several human histories that have become part of the creature, do I pick up the history after the transformation so there isn't several diverging branches.Or should I just include the history of one of the humans who either turned into or took over the gillian to lessen the confusion
13:Can the zanpaukto relate to creations and discoveries made fairly recently. Do they have the ability to be related to something like modern culture and inventions, like say atomic and television based abilities, or do they have to be separated from things like that because they were only recently created in the scope of soul society's history since from memory there was no zanpaukto that related to modern creations in the anime or manga and soul Society is mostly based on culture and tradition.
14:Final question, can the inner world be a part of the shikai or bankai's ability or is that just a separate thing entirely.
Thank you for all the help you've given me Hrafngull and Col, its really a lot to think about, and Im just asking you to help with these final thoughts.Thanks for the advice you've given me.

I noticed that from the strongest rankings there was a captain of squad 8 that disappeared from the rankings, did he just leave the site or did that character die or become inactive for an in story reason

If you're referring to July Kasumi'Oji, yes, the player has left the site.

11:What are the rules for entry to the Human world for Hueco Mundo?How long are they allowed to stay there, are they allowed to go there without the permission of Konuhai, and how much are they allowed to actually do there before they are ordered to come and back? However, are they only allowed to go there while on missions

Arrancar and Hollows can generally come and go as they please from the Human World. Due to the more informal structure of Las Noches, as long as nobody stronger than you cares that you went to the Human World, you won't get punished for it.

12:What should I do for a gillian's history, arrancar or otherwise.The Gillian, from what I could tell, are an amalgamation of several hollow souls that have fused into one for massive strength.Do I just include several human histories that have become part of the creature, do I pick up the history after the transformation so there isn't several diverging branches.Or should I just include the history of one of the humans who either turned into or took over the gillian to lessen the confusion

The latter is the better plan. The mind that will take over is the most effective to be the history of the character.

13:Can the zanpaukto relate to creations and discoveries made fairly recently. Do they have the ability to be related to something like modern culture and inventions, like say atomic and television based abilities, or do they have to be separated from things like that because they were only recently created in the scope of soul society's history since from memory there was no zanpaukto that related to modern creations in the anime or manga and soul Society is mostly based on culture and tradition.

Go for it. We're pretty generous when it comes to concepts for a Zanpakuto power.

14:Final question, can the inner world be a part of the shikai or bankai's ability or is that just a separate thing entirely.

Absolutely, in fact the current Captain of Squad 3 has an ability that does something very similar to that.
