Just uh, ignore most of the techniques stuff down the bottom because it uses an old, outdated mechanics system and you'd have to pretty much remake it all to even have it function in the current system.
You'll potentially have two other Bounts to play with soon, so there is a chance you won't have to write alone. If they aren't made then I'd suggest looking at writing with some Quincy.
As an asside; if you do join the Discord, you can ask some people about having them be involved in your history in some way, be it being attacked by a Hollow in the past, being affiliated with a Quincy in some way, etc. It'll make you much more integrated from the start and will give you somewhere to start instead of having to have dry introduction threads with people as a soul vampire.
