Bleach: Online World is a fun and exciting way to exercise your creativity and escape into a world you help build! It is an expansive roleplay experience depicting the entire Bleach Universe, but this time we control what happens. This is a great place to meet new people, make friends, and come to have fun and relax for a few hours as you lose yourself in the mind of a character that you design!
Here, you decide your own destiny as you forge your way through Soul Society as a Shinigami, or through Hueco Mundo as a Hollow. Travel the world as a human, or corrupt it as a Bount. Hunt your prey and escape your enemies as a Quincy, or put on your mask and roar as a Vizard. Whichever path you choose, your role in this expansive, alternate Bleach universe is up to you! There are no canon characters to deter or impede you, and everyone can help each other build their story! So what are you waiting for? Hop on in, and get started!
Essentially, I'm asking if I should put a bounty on the heads of RPCs. Any RPC that is a Level 2 or higher rank would be eligible to receive a bounty. Bounty would NOT be a measure of strength. A bounty's height for someone would depend purely on the amount of inconvenience, chaos, and damage they have caused for those who put a bounty on them. Example. Las Noches puts a bounty on a Captain. The amount depends on what that Captain has done. Say that Captain has invaded Las Noches and killed dozens of Fraccion as well as an Espada. That bounty will be very very high. Say that Captain only killed one or two Fraccion. It'll be a lot lower.
To obtain another character's bounty reward, a character would simply have to defeat the one being hunted in a Challenge PvP thread, or capture that person and leave during an adventure. Proof of capture must be reported to my Kuroi account via PM with a link to the thread (and page of that thread) where the capture or victory occurred. Furthermore, a bounty would give me the right to have bounty hunter characters pursue an RPC during adventure threads that I host.
I feel like it might impede one's ability to enjoy a thread if they constantly have to worry about the other participants and/or Hunter NPCs jumping them. Perhaps having a bounty assigned to you could become optional, for those who want the extra fights? There could be a TP bonus per escaped hunter for those who accept a bounty on their head.

Honestly I think your time could be put to better things then keeping track of this. You're already busy with school, posting, grading, playing NPCs, answering questions and whatnot. I mean, yeah I wouldn't mind it if it was added in, but I don't think it's necessary. Of course this is coming from a guy who's already loaded with ryo... So I'm not gonna vote no, but I'm not gonna vote yes either.

I think it would be awesome just saying, not for the ryo sense but it also places a status on the site's most infamous RPC's. It seems like a fun way to spread chaos threads throughout the forum

I would suggest that RPCs be allowed to post bounties in some IC fashion (or NPCs if it seems proper). If people want someone dead and aren't willing to do it themselves, let them pay for it.
Well, the idea isn't so much a way to make money nor a way for people to get each other killed. I just figured it'd be fun for people to be able to measure the fame of their characters. Though, we'll see. Even with all the "yes" votes, it's not guaranteed that I'll put it. Since, as Heki said, it IS difficult to keep track of everything. I might eventually need a mod to do it for me or something.
