PLOT POINT SYSTEM

[/b]
[li] You will earn 10 Plot Points automatically for every In Character post you make on an IC board.[/li]
[li] You will earn 20 Plot Points automatically for every In Character post you make in the Schatten Bereich Category. Access is only for those who have ICly become a Vandenreich member (excepting Canons).[/li]
[li] You will earn 40 Plot Points automatically for every In Character post you make in the Central 46 Chambers, and Reiokyu Soul King Palace boards. All threads these boards must be a Plot and therefore approved by staff.[/li]

Bonuses for posting:
[li] If you make at least 10 IC posts in a week, you automatically get an extra 30 plot points.[/li]
[li] 20 IC posts you receive 70 plot points.[/li]
[li] 30 IC posts you receive 120 plot points.[/li]
[li] 40 IC posts you receive 180 plot points.[/li]
[li] 50 IC posts you receive 250 plot points.[/li]
Notes: This is not accumulative so if you make 20 posts, you do not receive the 10 post reward in addition. Furthermore, this is not across all your accounts, this is on a per-character basis.

If for some reason you don't receive your bonuses after one week has passed from your initial post, PM Kaz to get them added.


Other:

[li]Creating a plot and submitting it through the [Plot Board] grants you plot points upon completion.[/li][/ul]

Event Points are awarded for BSRP Events and Contests such as the Of The Months and tournaments. These are OOC name bound instead of character bound and can be used as either Plot Points or to purchase Boxes. These points are tracked by the [Point List]

• You cannot buy things which require trials, whether they can be soloed or not. This includes but isn't limited to Vasto Lorde form, Bankai or Vizard.
• You also cannot buy release style items such as as Asauchi, Quincy Crosses or Fullbrings.
• You cannot buy an unlock of a mastery that are ordinarily locked until In Character unlocking, such as Reiatsu Control for Fullbringers or Soul Resonance for Humans.
• All numbers given in this thread are subject to change.
• There is a general minimum word count of 300 words per post for all of these plot sizes. We understand that some people struggle to reach it but spamming posts that make no sense will not be tolerated.
• All points earned whilst plotting with one of your characters may only stay on that character. These are untransferable and are tracked on your character account's mini-profile.
• You must have the given criteria before you able to be granted either a technique or a mastery. E.G. you must be [HL] if you wish to buy Mastered Reiatsu Control, or that you must have Average Reiryoku Techniques if you wish to buy a Tier III Reiryoku Technique.
• If you wish to buy a technique that has a variable technique Tier, the price you pay is that of the highest Tier. Similarly if you're upgrading a technique to a higher Tier, you still have to pay the full price for the highest Tier you can now achieve.
• If someone NPCs for you or your plot, they're entitled to half the points PCs are allowed to the nearest whole number, and these points are put onto a character of the NPCers choice.

• Within plots done with this system only, you may NPC above the cap of ML-A, up to AL-A. Canon's will be looked at on a case by case basis; if the canon has a holder, talk to said holder first. If they can't do it for legitimate reasons, or the canon has no holder, then find someone willing and ask them to hop over to the [Member Canon NPC Signup] page to apply for it, or contact staff about the situation.
  
  If the canons are locked however, with the sole exception of Ichigo who can be signed up for for single threads at a time, you may not NPC them under any circumstances. The same also applies to larger governing bodies such as the Central 46, as well as figures of immense political influence in the human world (i.e prime ministers, presidents, etc.). These are to be left exclusively to staff to handle.
• The required number of people plot sizes are non-negotiable, even if you're one person short.
• Training may be used for plot, however it must hold character development and plot. These are graded harshly, as the plot must be a major factor in your character's training as much as the training's important to the plot.
• Trials may be used for plot, but due to the involved parties already having a chance to receive potentially major rewards, they will be graded harshly. If there are no significant plot elements, a plot claim will be denied.
• Solo plots may either adhere to the post count normally, or looked at by word count if in a single post (for example), and will also be graded on plot consistency. If you choose to, you can have it measured both ways, say if you want to change locations and the like.

Plot descriptions must be submitted into the [Plot Improvement Area] to be graded and approved as a new thread using [the template]. Then when you're given the clear for the plot, post away. Once you feel that sufficient story elements for you plot is/are finished, post in your thread saying you have finished it.

A staff member will then look it over, read the threads and grade them to the best of his/her judgement. If the plot is approved, you may then go to [this thread] fill it out its template, and post it requesting your points to be added to your mini-profile.

Once they've been added you may then use said points on whatever you like in the [Improvement System] board. Once you've made your purchase, the staff will automatically deduct the price from your mini-profile. Cost charts on how much stuff is worth is also within this thread.

If you are unsure if your thread/-s or idea for them don't qualify as a plot, feel free to PM a staff member to ask about it.

If we do mess up though, which is possible since we're only human, do let us know and we'll have it fixed as soon as possible.
