Having grown a hateful new persona, Irvine can seem very distant and angry towards all those that look upon him but in his heart only sorrow resides, the tough guy act is merely a ploy to keep people away from him as he attempts to find his own answers. Though that isn't to say Irvine isn't a hateful being, as the children that seemed to ridicule him reminds Irvine how cruel humans are when they have materials and how humble they are when they have nothing. He has become cold and calculating and it would take a lot for Irvine to give a damn about anyone or anything.

Background:
(Listen to Me, While reading)

Irvine's story begins in the confines of a lone train cart, chugging along under the dark blue night sky and the shining moon above, a family is visible from the open door of the cart revealing Irvine's parents both of the Quincy race sitting side by side their heads leaned against one another and their legs dangeling only a couple feet away from the ground below, the father watching the ground be eaten by the horizon behind them, and in the mothers arms a baby, quietly staring at the light of the moon, its reflection shines in the baby's eyes. The father readjustes his position slightly, looking to the mother and the glazed look in her eyes yet the frozen smile on her face he knew it even before he looked, the mother was no longer with them. He cracked a smile to hide his sorrow and rose to his feet taking the baby out of the mothers arms, she falls backwards onto the train carts cold floor and he gently moves her to the back of the train and then the baby to the corner of the cart covering it with rags he found in the train cart leaving with him a strange jewel that was as blue as the baby's eyes and a Quincy cross by his side, he moved slowly back to the edge of the train and before long a long shinigami appears running as fast as the train itself and he leaps onto the train's edge, his face is covered completely by a mask as he reveals his zanpaktou and without mercy or hesitation thrusts the blade inwards the blade cutting through his skin like a hot knife through butter it jets out from his back and sprays blood outwards, some landing on the Quincy cross left behind and as the shinigami withdraws his blade the father's body falls from the train and onto the moving ground sweapt away with the unforgiving ground, The shinigami moves up to the mothers body and throws her from the train as well. His task done he leaps off the train and disappears from sight.

His parents during their lives developed a dangerous advancement of Ginto technology using emeralds instead of tubes it allowed the storing of far more spiritual energy which meant it required more spiritual energy to be of use. Irvine's father knew this and turned to the only place he could for spiritual energy, humans. He and a small team of researchers would scout out those with high spiritual energy and watch them, waiting for their untimely demise and then use the emeralds to draw their energies into the emeralds just before their souls went to the next world however this process took a very long time without cuasing the death of the subject by these researchers did not want to compromise the Quincy name by sinking to the level of Hollows. 20 Emeralds were made from this process but it wasn't without a cost, For when the souls were drawn into the emerald instead of leaving the world for the spirit world or to heaven or hell their Quincy technology destroyed not only the subjects soul but the entire generation of people related to that one person there were even some reports that those that had merely walked by the victim dropped dead because of it. This created a great disarray in the Shinigami world as the balance had been greatly affected, and they set out to find out what was happening to these people and erradicate the source, they eventually came onto the emeralds that at this point held such massive spirt energy they grew a mind of their own they aspired to gather more souls and the shinigami had to bravely fight and die to contain these emeralds in the most powerful of prison Kido. Now they had to restore the balance and find the accused, which upon examining the emeralds from a safe distance uncovered that the emeralds were of Quincy technology. Which made the investigation easy as they had records of all the remaining Quincy. All this time his father was horrified by what had happened fleeing with his pregnant wife far across the planet knowing full well he would be running from the Shinigami for the rest of his life. His wife had already put together what had happened and knew her time with her husband was short, so they decided to have a son, to try and experience as much of a family life as they could until they were eventually hunted down...and slain.

The baby left alone in the trainrode the railroads until the train came to a stop at a rural area in Nevada, where a various bunch of hobos boarded the train for the first time, hopinh to make a desperate escape from their debts in Las Vegas. and found the baby left all alone on the train, and with now life to live except for on the road the various hobos adopted Irvine as their son raising him as their own, he lived a quiet and innocence life where everything was easy and made sense, eating food out of dishes salvaged from the local dump and finding fun in running from the police to hide in new train carts. There was no school no homeowork no need to fit in, just sitting at the edge of the almost always moving train cart playing the harmonica one of the guys in the train found and gave him. None of the guys on the train knew what the cross or emerald was that was left with Irvine but Irvine held them close to his heart anyway assuming they were left behind from his parents. And the hobos aimed to keep Irvine happy in any way they could for to them Irvine was their sign of hope for a better life and peace of mind in their current situation, however that would all change one day when the train would come to a screeching halt and never take off again, the police had finally tracked down the runaways, and arrested all of them but Irvine, who was placed under social services, They had no records of Irvine's existance or parents, and the people that tried to question Irvine of his origins could only reply with what he knew, you people put my family away...

He was adopted at the age of 14 to a family that had already adopted 5 other kids 2 girls and now 3 boys. For the most part Irvine didn't speak and his siblings thought him odd for such but didn't try to bother him. His new parents enrolled him into school but Irvine found all concepts extremely hard to grasp as he had no introduction to these things from before, this frustrated Irvine and drove him into deeper studies as he was always known as the weird slow kid in school, he had barely any experience with people aside from the hobos and at first tried to win them over with kindness though that was of course rejected, and then upon releasing tears of frustration he was thought of as weak and ridiculed even more so. The summer came and went, Irvine spent it entirely in their house reading and speculating aside from when he was dragged out to dinner parties with the family so Irvine and his "siblings" could be shown off like trophies. The next school year came and Irvine was 15, during his isolation he found that he had no room for exterior sorrow, though his heart was torn up on this inside he grew a toughed exoskeleton so that when school came around instead of striking humor to his classmates he struck fear and distrust in their hearts, he even got into a couple fights at school where he came out on top by using his newborn intellect and his surrounding environments/ Everyone could see Irvine's new angry persona and suggested his parents to therapy, in which upon finding out that he was schdueled for such left the house for the one thing he understood and was comfortable with the most, the railroad. Off he rocketed down the railroad the horizon before him Irvine aims to find the reason he should keep on going, where his old family is and to leave the ignorant children of his age group behind him.

There is a reason the Aspects are there in your app explained here.

If you need help with any I will happily give some. You also start with a standard + in each field not counting the ones you allot yourself.

And incase you were waitnig for the amount of IC post youll be starting with to add in Ill say +30 posts. Anyone else?

I did know of the system, I was just waiting to see how many IC posts I got, Because now that I am at 30 as a Quincy I am entitled to one gear correct?

(I'll make it later today so Don't approve this yet)

And now we get to fix your racial aspects. You shouldn't really listen to how it says you get +'s for racial aspects based on posts because really how you get them is how you allot your general aspects +'s.

Reishi Control should only be 2 +'s (due to allotting only 2 +'s to dexterity as the freebie doesn't count)

Reishi Harnessing is fine

Reishi Storing should also only be 2 +'s (due to allotting only 3 +'s to reiatsu as again, the freebie doesn't count)

What Fei said, and I also agree with the 30 post count if only because I honestly wanted more from the background. It was a bit cliche, but at the same time original in a sense, and kept my interest, only real problem is that is ended off with him just seeing spirits and such. The only assumption I can find is that you wish to expand off of this In character correct? It's fine by me whatever way you go with this, but you could get more out of it right now before going into in character depth.

I just double checked the rules, so you can make a custom ability but your custom gear requires 50 IC posts and IC creation - not just "poof" and you have it. So aside for missing a custom ability of some sort your powers are actually set to go and be approved >.> Unless you're fine with just having the bow for now.

...-checks rules-

Huh...I must have got it confused with Ginto for some reason...weird

Anyway yes I am fine with the way it is please approve it.

Your +'s are off by, as you should have 2 more general, and one less in racial overall.

Is this right?

With the two pluses Pikante mentioned in the above post I put 1 in reiatsu and 1 in Dexterity, I then put the 1 racial point into reishi control and then because of the two pluses in general = one in respective racial aspect I put 1 more in both Reishi storing and harnessing.

No you would only have three for racial, as you get at the start 2 racial aspects, and then for your added post count another +. But the general is correct.

Also you can only place racial into an area that has 2 pluses within it disregarding the + you get for merely having the character.

Editted, I think everything is squared away now (I even added more backstory)

My apologies for misunderstanding

Yep seems fine, approved
