Universe Information
Bleach is a fictional manga and anime set in an equally fictional town in Japan. Like many other manga, this town is the nondescript modern Japanese town possessing many things that make places like it iconic. But the town in Japan is not the only place focused on during the series. After death in this universe, people become spirits and either pass on to what amounts to their afterlife in Soul Society, or stay in the human world due to some issues they had during their original life.
There are four major races displayed in Bleach, all of which are outlined in the class description topic [here]. These classes are Shinigami, Quincy, Humans, and Hollow. Shinigami are deeply based on traditional Japanese society. Most of them possess Japanese names and wear yukata when in and out of uniform. Hollows are the typical villains of the series. They are evil spirits that lose their heart and become focused on devouring people and spirits with spiritual power. Humans are humans in the typical sense, though for the sake of the site, most player characters will be fullbring users which are able to manipulate the souls of objects and use them to fight. Quincies are another branch of humans which gained the power to attack hollows through an unknown means. These humans manipulate spirit particles into bows which are also used to fight.
These races fight each other and attempt to gain power. Shinigami fight because it is their duty to maintain balance in the human and spiritual worlds. Hollows fight because it is their instinct to devour souls to become more powerful. Humans each have their own reason to fight, and Quincy seek to protect normal humans from hollows. The dynamics between these races often change and cause sparks to fly. Battles are commonplace in the world of Bleach and the normal human is totally unaware.
All in all, the Bleach universe is a distinctively unique universe ripe for many new ideas and fun experiences. We hope this very brief overview has interested you in the universe and makes you want to roleplay here with us.
