After countless ages of a stagnant war so commonplace it is hardly even thought of as a battle the unthinkable has happened, change has occurred. Where before lines were firmly drawn and attrition had become a way of life now a true struggle has begun. All will battle for supremacy but the real question is this, no matter who the victor is can the world truly continue to function once thats point has been reached? Will the events in that intervening period between the start of the Great Spirit War and the eventual end at the hand of the conquering race be to much for the fragile balance of the spirit stream? Only time and your actions in those events will tell.
In a matter of pride the Shinigami of Soul Society struck a blow at their long time arch-foe the Arrancar of Las Noches. What at first seemed to be an overwhelming victory on their part quickly turned sour. A new power arose, one that had been biding its time carefully for just such a day and utilized the opportunity to take control. They are called the Horror Vacui and once they had driven the Shinigami from the realm of Hueco Mundo, displaying their enormous superiority in the process they went about making Las Noches and indeed Hueco Mundo as a whole anew. Now they are posed to strike and only the combined forces of all the opposing realms can possibly stop them, unfortunately these forces are at current anything but “combined”. And so, when they come they will crush and no one can stand in their way, unless of course that someone were to have a plan and perhaps that someone could be you.
----------
Soul Society (Shinigami): As ever the death gods, the shinigami, the soul reapers… the black robed warriors of celestial judgment reign ever strong among the skies and the ground, yet their power is not as all encompassing as it once was. The 13 protection squads still function as always, doing their alleged duty, which is to uphold the laws of Seireitai and fight off those who seek to oppose them. From bustling Rukongai, to the rigid academy to the very halls of the Commander General, little has changed internally over the long blood years. Yet there is a different air about Soul Society, for it is no longer complete in its dominance… in-fact nowadays it seems to nearly be another faction amongst the warring masses. Still, size and seniority give the bulky behemoth that is Soul Society a distinct advantage over all who seek to overthrow it. Their leader is the Commander General Kazuma Irashi for now, however only a fool would think that their foes lay only on the outside, rivalry has become intense between many of the divisions in recent years and how that may factor in has yet to be seen.
Huece Mundo (The Arrancar and Hollows): Where before the hollow and Arrancar were a barely controlled mass of power that strong as it might have been was in no way controlled enough to pose a true threat, now things are different. The Horror Vacui's ascension to power has seen an immediate and intense shift in direction and focus. The Arrancar are aligned into a militaristic format and controlled rigidly, the wild hollows of Hueco Mundo are being corralled in a similar fashion to be utilized as war machines and beasts of burden, and both offensive and defensive technologies are being crafted. Power is as always the ruling factor of Hueco Mundo but now it is power with a purpose, that purpose is to destroy, that purpose is to begin the Great Soul War. At current Hueco Mundo is ruled by the Horror Vacui, a group of eight incredibly powerful Arrancar who go by cryptic monikers. They all claim to be of equal power and standing but it seems quite obvious that one calling himself Death is the accepted leader. But of course the leadership of Hueco Mundo has been in flux for thousands of years, will the Horror Vacuis reign last any longer than that of its predecessors?
The Brotherhood (Humanoids): After struggling against the growing waves of hollow as solitary beacons of defiance it did not take long for the Humans, Quincy, Bount and outcast Mod Soul’s to form an alliance. Unfortunately the Brotherhood arose from what was essentially a gang and remnants of that mode have been retained including constant infighting and vouches for power. However now on the eve of the Horror Vacui's arrival a woman named Victoria along with several followers have arrived with secrets in one hand and answers in the other. They have set about remaking the Brotherhood into a force to be feared, but if they can accomplish this task in time remains to be seen. Now below her sit two individuals from each race of the Brotherhood as leaders to their people and below them a growing organization with a proper hierarchy. The Brotherhoods task is simple, protect the innocent from the fires of war.
The Syndicate (Vizard): The Vizard are one of the most powerful alliances among the world of spirits, and they are widely respected and feared. None more so then the council of seven in which the top Vizard reside. Almost all of the Vizard in existence belong to the Syndicate unless they have specifically chosen to remain rogue agents or have gone against the will of the council. They sit beneath a woman named Ashley, the strongest of the Vizard who treats her followers with a certain sort of maternal nurture and yet sports a dark aura and a darker past. What their objective is or how they will factor into the coming days is all but unknown, regardless with their power it is inevitable that they will be a major contender either way.
New World Order (NWO - Rebellious Humans): Last but certainly not least is the newest and yet one of the fastest growing and most dangerous participants in the battle, the New World Order. Under the rule of a misanthrope of spirits named Richard Mallory whose understanding of this other world has been colored by a traumatic past a war is waged against all. Their goal is the complete and utter destruction of every spirit or construct in existence, no less will do. They either lack the knowledge or more likely in their zealotry refuse to acknowledge the truth of the soul stream and see all as a threat. Thus by destroying spirits and harnessing their spiritual essence into physical weaponry (through a secretive process known only to Mallory) they then turn that weaponry on other spirits to cause further destruction. They have quickly become the enemy of every other faction, but despite currently being out-gunned their sheer numbers and the secretive and cellular nature of their organization means they are virtually impossible to wipe out. And while the other groups focus on fighting each other or eliminating one or two small NWO outpost their core power continues to grow, and one day they to will be as formidable as any other.

So come, pick a side and fight. The realm of Bleached Souls is waiting.
