THE COSMOLOGY OF BLEACH-

The universe is a tripartite system maintained by the Soul King, the linchpin preventing the collapse of existence into a singular, chaotic void. Reality is divided into three primary dimensions, each serving a specific function in the cycle of transmigration.

THE THREE REALMS-
* World of the Living: A reflection of modern Earth where humans reside. Most are unaware of the spiritual entities surrounding them, though some possess high Reiryoku (Spiritual Power).
* Soul Society: The afterlife and primary hub for souls. It consists of the Rukongai, where commoners live, and the Seireitei, the fortified center of military operations.
* Hueco Mundo: A desolate, moonlit desert between worlds. It is the habitat of Hollows, souls that lost their hearts and descended into monstrous forms driven by hunger.
THE BALANCE OF SOULS-
Life and death are governed by the flow of souls. Shinigami (Soul Reapers) act as psychopomps, performing Konso (Soul Burial) to send wandering spirits to the Soul Society and purifying Hollows with Zanpakuto (Soul-Cutter Swords). If the balance of souls between the human world and the afterlife fluctuates too wildly, the boundaries dissolve, leading to universal extinction.
POWER SYSTEMS & RACES-
Energy manifests as Reishi (Spiritual Matter). Every race manipulates this differently:
* Shinigami: Utilize Zanpakuto, which have two released states: Shikai (initial) and Bankai (final). They also use Kido, a form of high-level spiritual incantation.
* Quincy: Humans with the ability to absorb Reishi from their surroundings. They craft weapons of light and historically oppose Shinigami due to their method of completely erasing Hollows from existence.
* Hollows/Arrancar: Hollows who remove their masks gain Shinigami-like powers. Their ultimate technique is the Cero, a concentrated blast of spiritual energy.
* Fullbringers: Humans who can manipulate the "souls" of physical objects, a power derived from surviving Hollow attacks before birth.
THE DANGER ZONES-
Beyond the three realms lies the Dangai, a corridor through time and space, and Hell, a bottomless pit where those who committed heinous crimes in life are eternally shackled. The Royal Realm sits above all, guarded by the Zero Division to protect the Soul King. This intricate machinery ensures that life, death, and rebirth continue in an endless loop, fueled by spiritual pressure and the constant battle for dominance among the various factions. The history is defined by the blood-war between Quincy and Shinigami, a thousand-year conflict over the very nature of the world’s fundamental stability.

Intro

The balance has shattered. After a thousand years of slumber, the Father of the Quincy has awakened, reclaiming the "Shadow" within the Seireitei. The Wandenreich launched a total invasion, bypassing the Spirit Bark with a seamless transition of dimensions. Within minutes, the Soul Society became a graveyard of ice and blue flames. Captains have seen their Bankai stolen by the Medallions, leaving the Gotei 13 defenseless against the Sternritter. As the sky cracks open under the weight of the Quincy's "Holy Selection," the air grows thick with the scent of ozone and drying blood. The First Division barracks lie in ruins, and the screams of dying soldiers are silenced by the cold efficiency of the invaders.

The Seireitei is unrecognizable. Massive silver pillars of light—the Schatten Bereich—have erupted from the ground, encasing the majestic white architecture in a cold, metallic darkness. You materialize at the edge of the Senkaimon, the gate clicking shut behind you. The spiritual pressure hitting your skin is caustic; it feels like standing in the middle of a furnace. To your left, a group of Shinigami messengers lies motionless, their zanpakuto shattered into jagged shards. To your right, a Sternritter stands atop a pile of rubble, idly adjusting a white cape as they look down at a fallen Vice-Captain. "Another soul to be purged," the Quincy remarks, eyes glowing with a predatory blue light as they draw a bow of pure Reishi. "The majesty of the Quincies has no room for your kind." The Quincy raises their hand, and a hail of Heilig Pfeil (Holy Arrows) whistles through the air, aimed directly at your heart. The ground trembles as a distant explosion rocks the foundations of the Soul Society.
