Brian had announced his return to TN several days ago, but yesterday, boy did it show. (lol@rhyme)

Brian, TN Global mod that goes by the username RasenganWarrior, was a Pinky in the past. He was one of the originals. When he was promoted, and after Chronicknave stepped down shortly after, I was promoted to RPG mod. The two of us have been friends, since our early RPing days of Turtle War.

Anyway, he made some postage in the RPG area. And boy, were they awesome!

First, there’s how his characters in the Naruto RPG have made their comeback. Briato Uzumaki, Pinta Haruno, and Riyo Hylain, were all students of Shigeko, so of course they would show up at the wedding reception. They probably win the award for the best entrance, or at least the most interesting. xD

Brian didn’t stop there, he finally finished his creation of the thread, The Sage’s Mountain. It is probably going to be one of the funnest places in the Naruto RPG, allowing people to battle in a world of their imagination. But if you want to know the full details, then you’re going to have to read the whole thread and find the total awesomeness yourself.

In Bleach, I finally started using Rundi! I think I’m going to have a lot of fun with him.

I officially posted Rundi yesterday. The one area was uncertain with, I just shoved a N/A in the category. This was the ability for his arrancar zanpakutou prior to releasing it. I was going to allow it to make explosions. And the more of the little “gauges,” as I described them, were filled up on the zanpakutou, the bigger the explosion.

But, it sounded a bit OPed to me, so I removed it for now. Maybe I’ll get a better idea later.

Anyway, here is the complete profile. I am very proud of Rundi Manchado. Hopefully he gets accepted soon so I can use him.

In the Naruto RP, for a bit now, Michi has been chatting with Misaki Kuroidon, wife of the Mizukage.

The wedding is still underway. After the classic cake-cutting and -eating scene, Shoda and Shigeko snuck off for a bit of…training? Meanwhile, Tokuzen’s daughter, Kohana dives in and wrecks the cake. Fortunately, the Drunken Brothers had a spare cake made in case of such a catastrophe. Then Taiken skillfully cut the cake with his awesome Fuuton skills. Not long after, the Hyuuga couple returned, and their first dance commenced. Currently, the reception is on their second song, being played by super awesome DJ Hinote, the Tsukikage.

But outside the land of the Naruto RPG, I’ve been doing a few things in Bleach. Most notably are the addition of two new characters to my roster: Yokoto Setsuna and Rundi. Setsuna is at E-Rank, the lowest possible, and I plan to slowly work her up to skills. Starting from Shinou Academy, she’s in the Onmitsukidou program (or Ninjagami, as I like to call them when I don’t think I can spell it). Rundi, whose surname I’m still deciding, is the Sexta (6th) Espada. I’m still working on him, which is why Kuro and I are practicing together in the Bleach Waiting Area.

Last night, I sat down and worked on a sketch for Rundi, thinking having a clear image might help me think of him and his characteristics. After spending a lot of time trying to draw in Kubo’s style and me messing it up with the final features, I got frustrated and began to draw randomly, luckily creating this image you see. It may not be the neatest or cleanest, but I like it.

Elsewhere in Bleach, Kurai got in a little scuffle with Kidou Corps chief Neriki. It didn’t last very long, but it was quite the short show. After Kurai finally passed, he checked out Karakura, only to find that any event there that he had sensed was already over. He was too late, due to the shinigami delay. So, he returned to the Kamenjin base, finding someone new inside.

In other news, the current badge battle is a Pinky Battle Royal! Not to mention, it’s being run by Dorian. I guess you can call it his first act of pinkness.

It seems like the village leader meeting is coming to a close. I know I will push for it to end if it doesn’t, we have planned that Shoda and Shigeko get married on the 24th. Plus, the whole thing has just been going on for more than long enough. End please.

Meanwhile, Kirigakure is under attack by the Kusa missing-nin Versin/Ninstruck. My character Michi and Schro’s Luttes are taking the S-Class on. Apparently, he thinks he can just join up against the organization of Kurotaka peacefully after killing two Kiri Jounin. Ha, what?

I’m currently working on a new Bleach RPG character. This one will be an academy student, and through hard work, will rise through the ranks. I am also making the Yuki-nin I put together earlier for the Naruto RPG, Shirosaki Norio, a Genin instead of a Chuunin. I’m having difficulty deciding what exactly he should specialize in, so I figured that I could just play with him, and in time, figure it out. Let him grow into what he does.

I’m also trying to push for the 666 Satan RPG to begin soon.

On another TN-related note, two members from the RPG took their leave from TalkNaruto: legendary RPer Chronicknave (username now Kaizer) and the very helpful Zepzune (currently SooperTrooper). They seem to never want to come back, and although we shall miss them, it is really up to them to decide what to do. Although I do feel it is a bit dumb to declare leaving forever, not even giving an option for occasional visits, again it’s what they want to do. If they really do never come back, I will accept it. And if they do eventually come back, well, then that’s fine, too. I wouldn’t make a big deal about it really. I’d rather have friends come back anyway.

Today, the final battle in the B- and C-Rank tier in the Tournament of the Fireflies in the Bleach RPG came to an end, with Kuro’s Hatoyama Senji beating out my character, Ishida Shizuka. It was a good fight though. I’m really proud of myself. Fighting is my weak point in RPing, and I’m steadily improving. (link)

In the Naruto RPG, the gathering of village leaders is still going on. Hopefully that will come to an end soon. (link)

I’m also loving my new avatar.
