Plot:
Spoiler
It is the year 2476, and the world you know is all but gone. In the Human World, technology has progressed significantly, and government has become a corrupt form of capitalism worldwide. The rich are unnecessarily so, and the poor are left fighting to survive. In Soul Society, many of the same problems exist within Rukongai, however Seireitei has become a Utopia under the new leadership of the G13. The old Gotei, the Central 46, and the Noble Houses have all collapsed, leaving a modern and well organized establishment of Agent-like Shinigami in charge. In Hueco Mundo, many of the vast deserts have become cities and structures, as Arrancar, and even Vasto Lorde class Arrancar are becoming more common. It has been several centuries since the last major conflict between Shinigami and Arrancar, but a new organization called Infierno threatens the peace with it's mission to succeed in creating a Vacio Dios, the fabled final evolution of a Menos Grande. In the realm of the Spirit King there is great confusion, as one of the legendary Royal Guard, Kazuma Ishida, has gone missing, leaving only two warriors to fend off attacks.
Races and Factions:
Spoiler
G13:
Spoiler
The G13 is a highly organized group of Shinigami tasked with ushering souls into Soul Society, managing Soul Society, and keeping both the human world and Soul Society safe from harm. Members of the G13 must be battle hardened, as they are often the victims of Hollow attacks, having outstanding reiatsu. G13 attire is a suit, usually black, sunglasses, and a Shinigami weapon. The G13 is broken into 13 divisions, each having its own duties and specialties, but each working toward the same goal.
Infierno:
Spoiler
Infierno is a group of powerful Vasto Lorde class Arrancar bent on achieving Vacio Dios status by surviving the trials of hell. If they emerge victorious, all souls will be in great peril. Infierno has 7 Lords and one Grand-Lord of Treachery. Each Lord has an ability that is a manifestation of a major sin, and each rules over a level of Hell. Should any one Vasto Lorde within Infierno conquer all levels of hell, they would achieve Vacio Dios status.
Seiryokugan have existed since the dawn of shinigami, though by the standards of the Old Gotei and the Central 46, they were frowned upon; viewed as a shinigami perversion of the Hollow’s Cero, a Seiryokugan were weeded out of the Gotei throughout history. A Seiryokugan, in basic terms, is a Zanpkuto whose sealed form is a ranged weapon. In the old days of the Gotei, these were often things like throwing stars, blow darts, and bows, however, in the year 2476, a large majority of Shinigami have no recollection of such ancient weapons, with guns being so prevalent in human society. This is partially the reason why the G13 accept Seiryokugan as spirit manifestations so openly now; many shinigami have never even considered a sword as a weapon. In modern day, the most common sealed Seiryokugan manifestation is a handgun. The ammunition fired by a Seiryokugan is as plentiful as the users Reiatsu, and varies in form from Shinigami to Shinigami. Sometimes ammunition manifests itself as reiatsu blasts, while other times it condenses into an actual physical form similar to a bullet.
Zanpakuto:
Spoiler
For the majority of Soul Society’s history, Zanpakuto have been the only accepted weapon of a Shinigami. Originally meaning “Soul Cutter Sword”, the term Zanpakuto has come to be a label for all spirit manifestations that are bladed in their sealed form. While the Gotei 13 only accepted Shinigami with Zanpakuto’s, the G13 is more lax, however, will always accept a Shinigami with a Zanpakuto as a weapon. In modern day, the year 2476, traditional Katanas are no longer the most common sealed form of a Zanpakuto. Non-traditional bladed weapons and weapons such as beam sabers have become so common in the Human World that there is a natural overlap in Soul Society.
Shikai:
Spoiler
The Shikai is the second form (or first "upgraded" form) available to a Zanpakuto or Seiryokugan. To activate it, the Shinigami needs to learn the name of their Zanpakuto or Seiryokugan. This is not as easy as simply picking a name, as the living spirit of the weapon already has its own name. Therefore, the Shinigami must be able to communicate and harmonize with their weapon effectively, which requires being able to speak to the spirit within its world.
Bankai:
Spoiler
The Bankai is the second and final upgraded form of a Zanpakuto or Seiryokugan. To achieve Bankai, one must be able to materialize and subjugate their weapon’s spirit. Materialization means the opposite of getting dragged into the inner world. Instead the wielder needs to summon the Zanpakuto or Seiryokugan’s spirit into the physical world. It usually takes 10 years or more to achieve, plus the experience needed to master it.
The power and forms of Shikai and Bankai are dependent on the weapon. They also vary according to the wielder's strength and training. But in general, one's power can grow 5 to 10 times greater. Only the strongest Shinigami can use it. It is also the ultimate technique of a Zanpakuto or Seiryokugan. Even among the exceptionally talented, Bankai is very rare.
Vizard:
Spoiler
Having begun as Shinigami, the Vizard appear entirely Human and bar those times where they are using their powers are indistinguishable from ordinary Shinigami. To gain access to their Hollow powers, a Vizard dons a Hollow mask. This allows them to augment their Shinigami abilities with Hollow powers, as well as giving them access to some of the more generic Hollow abilities. Their spiritual pressure likewise changes into a mix of Hollow and Shinigami. This process of donning one's Hollow mask is referred to as Hollowfication.
Resurreccion:
Spoiler
Resurreccion returns the essence of an Arrancar's offensive Hollow abilities to their humanoid bodies. Arrancar seal the nuclei of their abilities within the form of a sword, entirely different from what the Shinigami use. When they release their weapons' seals, they unleash their true power and their true form.
Segunda Etapa:
Spoiler
This is the Arrancar’s second released form. In this form their power grows immensely, and they once again change in appearance, though the change is usually more slight than their first transformation. Segunda Etapa is very rare even among the most powerful Arrancar.
Vacio Dios:
Spoiler
This is the final form in the evolutionary chain of a Menos Grande class Hollow (Gillian, Adjuchas, Vasto Lorde, Vacio Dios). A Hollow’s biggest strength is its ability to draw on fear, as a Hollow itself is made up of similar emotions. This also means that a Hollows biggest limitation is its own fear. The only known way to overcome this fear and achieve Vacio Dios status is to pass through the seven levels of hell. It is said that many a Vasto Lorde have went in, and never has it been recorded that any have left. Most Hollows undergo the process of removing their mask and becoming Arrancar in preparation for this process.
The appearance of a Vacio Dios is very similar to their Vasto Lorde forms, however their power levels are quite different. A Vacio Dios has a much more devastating Cero, faster Sonido, stronger Hierro, and a seemingly endless amount of reiatsu. Vacio Dios are also fabled to have control over fear, though this ability likely varies within a group of Vacio Dios’.

Incantation: unknown; although Tessai hinted that it has an incantation when he fights Aizen.
95. Rokkaku Nankan This technique was used by Sōsuke Aizen against Ichigo Kurosaki.

This barrier appears out of nowhere and takes the shape of a watermill. It's inner section can be opened up like a set of fangs allowing one to attack through the barrier. Together with Ryubi no Jomon, Kikai no Jomon and Hoyoku no Jomon, it forms Shiji no Saimon.
Incantation: Unknown
100, Part 3. Kikai no Jomon (亀鎧の城門, The Gate of Turtle Shell) This technique is another one of Hachigen Ushōda new Kidō barrier techniques developed after he became a Vizard. This barrier is created by many small hexagons combining to form a honeycomb-like structure. Together with Ryubi no Jomon, Koko no Jomon and Hoyoku no Jomon, it forms Shiji no Saimon.
Incantation: Unknown
100, Part 4. Hoyoku no Jomon (鳳翼の城門, The Gate of Phoenix Wings) This technique is another one of Hachigen Ushōda new Kidō barrier techniques developed after he became a Vizard.

Stats and Currency:
Spoiler
Reiatsu Level (RL):
Spoiler
Spiritual beings draw on their massive Reiatsu reserves to strengthen their blows, hasten their movement, and project energy. Reiatsu Level is a measure of your ability to harness your vast Reiatsu. This is the most important stat, as it overwhelms physical speed, physical strength, and physical stamina, and is the determining factor in many aspects of the game. As such, it is the only stat we will focus on. Reiatsu Level is increased by emerging victorious from combat, be it actual, or virtual combat. Your Reiatsu Level will increase by 5 for every victory. Overcoming great odds is the only way to unlock your potential, and with that in mind, you will not earn an increase in your Reiatsu Level if your opponents Reiatsu Level is less than half of yours. All spiritual beings begin with a Reiatsu Level of 25.
Kan:
Spoiler
Kan is the currency of Soul Society. It is the currency in which Shinigami salary is paid and all items in Soul Society are priced. Due to the massive number of Shinigami that were slaughtered by Hollows or brought to Hueco Mundo captive during the War of 2113, and in subsequent battles, in addition to counterfeiting, Kan has become the most available and widely accepted currency in Hueco Mundo among Hollows and Arrancar as well.

Personality: Byakuya strongly believes in law and order. He feels that if someone in his position does not follow the rules as a good example, then no one will follow them. He believes that to maintain the order, all law-breakers must be punished, even if that goes against his own wishes. Byakuya feels that "part of a captain's responsibilities are to make sure the lieutenant's responsibilities are taken care of".
History: One of the Captain remnants of the old Gotei, Byakuya took the Collapse of the old Gotei and the noble families very hard, and for over 100 years, secluded himself from the rest of Soul Society, honing his kido skills before returning to the G13 and claiming his spot as 6th Division Captain and the new Kido Corps Commander. Byakuya hasn’t been the same since the loss of his adoptive sister Rukia Kuchiki in the War of 2113, and as such now relies much more heavily on his Division.

The release can be negated before it completes. However, if the release completes itself, then Senbonzakura is rendered near-unstoppable. While the blades are supposedly too small to be seen normally, they reflect light in such a way as to appear as cherry blossom petals. By swinging Senbonzakura's hilt,
Byakuya can control the blade fragments at will, allowing him to shred opponents at a distance and break through almost any defense. The blades are also used for defensive purposes, as they can even protect Byakuya from an incoming sword swing. In order to protect Byakuya from his own attacks in both Shikai and Bankai, Senbonzakura possesses a "Hurtless Area" where it does not cut anything that is within 85cm of Byakuya unless he himself allows the blades to enter the area.

Bankai Name: Senbonzakura Kageyoshi
Bankai Abilities: Essentially a much larger version of Senbonzakura's Shikai. To activate it, Byakuya needs to drop his sword straight down. The sword phases into the ground, as though it were a pool of water. Energy ripples expand out, turning the surrounding area dark, and within seconds, two rows of a thousand giant blades rise up from the ground. Those thousand swords then scatter and countless flying blades pierce the enemy. No one knows the exact number of blades generated and no one can see the movements of those blades or even dodge them. The number of blades is great enough that Byakuya can use them for defense as well as offense at the same time. He commonly forms them into large masses, designed to obliterate opponents instantaneously. As it moves through the air like torrents of waves, it gives the appearance of cherry blossoms flowing swiftly along with the wind. Byakuya's defensive use allows him to cover himself entirely in these tiny blades, and form a body shield. Unlike his Shikai, his Bankai is entirely mentally controlled. While Byakuya can control the blades with his mind alone, using his hands allows him to do so more effectively, making the blades increase in speed three fold. Similar to his Shikai, its attack is triggered with the phrase Scatter.
Bankai Appearance:
Personality: Edison is clever and intuitive, however, he is very shy. Even when adorned with his best charms he finds himself in many socially awkward situations. Still, he likes to become very close to his subordinates, and strictly discipline them in not only combat, but conventional wisdom as well. Edison is a tech Guru, and maintains the VCS as well as the Senkaimon gate.
History: Edison’s time in Rukongai was spent during a depression. He barely had enough Kan to keep a roof over his head, still, he found a way, and stayed indoors for the majority of the economic turmoil, almost hermit-like. This is when Edison’s social anxiety problems began. After being drafted into the G13, Edison found himself as even more of a recluse, hiding within the 12th Division labs working on various new inventions and innovations. Many of the lower ranking members in squads outside the 12th Division fear Edison, assuming that he must be a terrible person to keep to himself the way that he does.

Shikai Name: Nagori
Shikai Abilities: Edison is capable of firing bullets that explode upon impact, releasing a violent blast of a particular flavor of reiatsu. Those caught in this blast are not harmed, but rather suffer from severe short term memory loss. This ability is ideal for cleaning up after sticky situations with spiritually aware humans, but can also serve as a combat weapon, greatly confusing the enemy.
Edison has also been seen firing at machines in his lab, transferring coding data stored in one of his skeletal cyborg components.
Shikai Appearance: The most noticeable difference between Nagori’s shikai and sealed form is that Edison’s manifests a new set of clothes, much more intimidating than his Suit and Glasses.

Name: Ken
Race: Arrancar
Faction: Infierno
Rank: Lord of Fraud
Age: 433
Appearance:
Spoiler
Personality: Ken is a pathological liar. He rarely tells the truth, and when he does, it’s only to conceal another lie. He keeps everyone at a distance, while giving them the illusion that they are within his tight-knit group of acquaintances. It is said that Ken is such a marvelous liar, that even those expecting a lie cannot decipher whether or not he is fibbing.
History: In the war of 2113, it was Ken who killed Rukia Kuchiki, Captain of the 13th Division of the G13, and cause Byakuya Kuchiki to go into a deep depression. Despite many eyewitness reports of the incident, many don’t believe that it was actually Ken who killed Rukia, solely based on his enigma.
During the war, Byakuya was the only one capable of fighting off Ken’s militaristic advances, due to his unique zanpakuto, this is what many believe to be Ken’s motivation for killing Rukia, as if motivation were needed.
Reiatsu Level (RL): 90
Kan: Unknown
Resureccion Abilities: After Resureccion, Ken is able to create a dome-like shield that absorbs incoming reiatsu based attacks. Absorbing these attacks allows Ken to create incredibly powerful blasts of red Cero energy. Physical attacks will pass through this shield as though it were not there.

Zanpakuto Name: Gekitsū (Excruciating Pain)
Release Command: Torment
Shikai Appearance: Refer to character appearance.
Shikai Abilities: Gekitsū is known to be an extremely sadistic zanpakuto, as its ability focuses more on causing despair, rather than granting a clean death. Its prominent ability allows it to alter one’s perception of time only when they experience pain. It does not manipulate actual time in anyway, however. The maximum prolongation it can create is relevant to Wilhelm’s own mastery. Nevertheless, a wound inflicted by Gekitsū can last for several hours in agonizing solitude. Example, if Wilhelm were to slash an opponent across his chest, from the moment the initial pain is tracked by the targets mind, to the point where the blade no longer has contact to the targets body; time will seemingly slow down exponentially, forcing the target to experience pain on a different scale, which also has a major effect once their perception of time returns to normal. Most targets would be paralyzed, shocked, mentally exhausted or other characteristics that hinder their defenses. Of course, the perception of time only slows down for the one who Gekitsū inflicts damage (though during this phase everything is painfully slow, similar to how Mayuri’s superhuman drug works, so it’s not like suddenly the target becomes super slow and everything else just continues to move normally).
Furthermore, the rings that appear during Gekitsū’s Shikai stage are relevant to its abilities. The pommel, which becomes the largest ring, represents its primary ability – the one mentioned above. In addition, there are five smaller rings, each one representing a different, secondary ability.
Secondary techniques:
1st Ring Activation – This is the closest small ring to the cross guard. When activated this ring shimmers and simultaneously spins, rapidly and emitting a buzzing noise. In contrast to Gekitsū’s primal ability, it accelerates the perception of those who witness its light or sound, up to four times quicker, however due to Wilhelm’s initial mastery it can only double it for the time being. Regardless of the amount of times it increases one’s perception of time, it often baffles Wilhelm’s opponents as their natural reflexes are all mixed up and an enemy’s movement/attacks appear to be a lot quicker. Also, due to the contradiction to Gekitsū's primal ability, they cannot be used simultaneously.
2nd Ring Activation -
3rd Ring Activation –
4th Ring Activation –

History: Unknown, it was once thought that Rei was a contract killer under a different name, not much is known about his previous life, however he was recruited into the Gotei 13 after being captured for killing a high profile magistrate, facing execution for treason, the higher ups decided that Rei might as well be useful as part of the Gotei 13.

Shikai Name: Kakujin (Nuclear Winter)
Shikai Abilities:
Kakujin transforms from a simple katana to a hyper reactive nuclear power source. The blade acts as a nuclear core constantly generating and storing energy as long as it is released. The radiation from the kakujin effects objects and reishi in different catergories dependant of how rapidly the radiation is released and the exposure to the environment.
Low exposure: Low exposure causes decay in objects, radioactive materials naturally decay objects at a slow rate, if the target has high density (includes reiastu), then at least a slight degeneration of the optimum of the target. More specifically decay effects high speed regeneration and construction of obstacles the most, to the point if the exposure is enough, it can cancel out these attempts.
Normal exposure: Normal exposure is the extent where energy is expelled kinetically and to some extent stored in objects. Objects and reishi stored with this energy become reactive, to the point where the object is unstable and can explode. The direct radioactive energy blasts also have significant force to them, similar to cero and hadou blasts, however it does retain the slight decay factor to it. Normal exposure can remain for a few minutes even after the energy has been discharged allowing doubling of potential energy. The most prominent example of this is an attack that has been discharged which is followed up by a second energy attack, this causes the kinetic energy of the second attack to merge with the discharged potential energy to create damage of twice the original.
High exposure: High exposure means that absorption of radiation in objects is accelerated so much that the object takes in all the energy. The object can mutate due to the radiation and energy given to become anima. These anima are animate objects with minds of their own, the concept is that radiation exposure can cause rapid evolution to the extent artificial life can be created. The anima have a machine mentality and do what has been programmed by the zanpakutou.

Combinations between each exposure* means that anima can have the explosive attribute to them (Like deidara's clay bombs), as well as decay. Also the radiation blasts can have a decay factor to them.
Decay shall affect objects at a slow rate, but on impact can cause significant weakness in a small area of effect. e.g make a weak point in a low level bakudo enough to break out of. (added because no body ever stands f**ing still enough or is willing to take a hit to have a significant effect)
A dark armor made from the metal of the original zanpakutou wraps around of Rei, creating what appears to be a knight's armor. The armor acts in the same way as the shikai, it disperses orange radiation, but now from the entire body. The metal is capable of duplicating itself at bankai level and lifeforms can be crafted from this metal without even having to fuse the radiation to other surfaces. The evolution chain is also amplified, now, not only can kakujin shisunen create anima from simple dirt and concrete it can also do this to kidou and cero(within reason).
