A Clarification of the Ranking System

It has come to the attention of me, my fellow staff, and multiple members that there seems to be a miscommunication of the strength of power ranks. This is brought on by a lack of clarification of the staff team when it comes to powers, and an erroneous series of judgments in the past. This announcement is to clarify this, and to make some changes.

[/b] is something that should not be given out freely. It is something that should be earned from tremendous amounts of effort. This is the power level of Yamamoto, the Captain-Commander, and as a result puts a massive gap between the Vast and anything below it. Because of this, every character at VAST SPIRTIUAL POWER is being lowered one tier down to IMMENSE SPIRITUAL POWER. This change does not effect the NPCs Luucio Krakken and Juken Hinaai.

IMMENSE SPIRITUAL POWER is something meant to be feared and respected. It is, logically, the highest level any PC can attain without doing a massive amount of plotting that changes the site dramatically every time. Remember that IMMENSE SPIRITUAL POWER is akin to the likes of Unohana, Aizen, Starrk, Zaraki, etc. This rank is meant to be hard to attain, and is only given out freely to a select number of canon positions that are, as of now, filled.

GREAT SPIRITUAL POWER, I think, is seen as the baseline of strength on this site. This is because of the fact that everyone can start at this level if they miss out on a canon. While we are not changing this, we would like to illustrate that GREAT SPIRITUAL POWER is a level far beyond that of “elite”. It should be considered something that carries with it an immense weight, requires a history to start with, and should not be taken just because you want to be considered strong. Please, do not make a character starting with this power level if you just want make a random character.

HIGH SPIRITUAL POWER is the true elite level. This where the lieutenants, Fraccion, etc, come into play. These characters are meant to be the outliers—the people who are extremely powerful by most common standards. If you are looking for a starting character, or a human veteran, you are looking for MODERATE SPIRITUAL POWER, HIGH SPIRITUAL POWER. For now on, we will be extremely picky of who is approved for anything at high or above, and will be requiring above average effort and/or good justifications for these levels of power.[/ul]
I am hoping that this announcement has clarified the levels of spiritual power for future characters. If you have any questions, please ask it in this thread so that we may globally clarify.
