Once you have submitted an application, it will be graded. For what, you ask? For a level and a rank. These two things determine the overall power level of your character. The level and rank your character can get depends on a few factors, like age, powers, history, and personality. However, the biggest factor is your role-playing skill. If you don't put effort into your role-play posts, don't count on us letting you play a high level character! Now the attainable ranks will be explained:

Master Rank (MST)

The highest rank attainable. A truly stellar role-play sample will have to be shown before anyone can earn a character at Master Rank.

Levels:

0- God-like characters. This rank is not attainable through application. Only plot-specific characters can start off at this rank. Still, this will be a very rare occasion.

1- Extremely powerful characters, also known as transcendent beings. This is the rank one must reach to earn Final Bankai. Again, this rank is not attainable through application.

2- Very powerful characters. Only characters such as the Espada Lord, Captain Commander, and other major faction leaders may start with this rank.

3- Exceptionally powerful characters such as the Cero Espada. Only attainable through application for Cero Espada. To gain a Segunda Etapa, a character must reach this level.

Advanced Rank (ADV)

This is the rank given to most Captains and Espada. Although what level you may earn is of course, up to your skill level.

Levels:

0- Exceptionally strong characters such as the Primaera Espada and veteran Captains.

1- The level given to most seasoned Captains and Espada 2-4. Characters at this level have completely mastered their Bankai, etc.

2- The level given to most adept Captains and Espada 5-7. Characters at this rank are in the finishing stages of mastering their Bankai or Resurrección. At this rank, a Visored can master the use of their Hollow mask.

3- The level given to young Captains, seasoned lieutenants, and Espada 8-10. These characters have just began to understand how their Bankai or Resurrección works.

Adept Rank (ADP)

A variety of characters can attain this rank, but most commonly, it is given to Lieutenants, high-seated officers, and Fracción.

Levels:

0- Shinigami who have had their Shikai mastered for a long period of time are a good example of this level. It is at this level that a Bount may learn to merge with his or her Doll.

1- Shinigami who are in the finishing stages of perfecting their Shikai.

2- Shinigami who have started to master their Shikai.

3- Shinigami who have just learned the name of their Zanpakutō.

1- Low-seated Shinigami and Menos.

2- Usually unseated Shinigami and low-level Hollow.
