There are 6 Dimensions on this forum in which your characters may or may not dwell however each plays its own part in the stability of the universe. Only one of these Dimensions house the living; another is a gateway to the other dimensions, while the remaining four serve as the dwelling place for those who have passed on those who are in the process of such or those who are condemned to an eternity of suffering due to their past transgressions.
Each of these Dimensions are listed below:
The Human World
The Human World also referred to as the World of the Living, Material World, or the Real World, is where living Humans reside. It is comprised entirely of physical energy (Kishi) which is also known as atoms and does not mix well with spiritual energy (Reishi) often resulting in the former being destroyed when an overwhelming amount of Reishi is flooded into the enviroment. Likewise the Human World has the least concentration of Reishi out of the five dimensions and as a result the Dead or rather beings comprised completely out of Reishi such as Shinigami and Hollows are weaker when in this world. It contains a mix of Neutral, Positive and Negative Reishi which are all mixed but balanced with one another. Likewise this is the only realm capable of sustaining living life, and as such serves as the focus point binding the other dimensions to each other. Those that die in this Dimension become Pluses and can end up in three possible Dimensions based on the occurances within the RP.

Soul Society
Soul Society is one aspect of the afterlife (also called the spirit world). This is also where Shinigami live and where most Souls dwell until they are reincarnated into the Human World. It is divided into two halves, Rukongai and the Seireitei. Like all other dimensions besides the Human World and Hell it is comprised completely of Reishi and serves as a waiting area for Souls who have perished to live the rest of their lives. Pluses which were able to recieve Konsō before their chains of fate completely dissolve will end up in this Dimension starting in the Rukongai however those with exceptional spiritual pressure are granted acces into Seireitei to train to become Shinigami. This Dimension shares the most Reishi concentration with Hueco Mundo and the Valley of Screams out of all the Dimensions as a result living beings aren't able to travel to the Soul Society through normal circumstances as long as they are still alive. The Soul Society has the highest concentration of Positive Reishi out of all the Dimensions.

Hueco Mundo
Hueco Mundo is the dimension in which Hollow and Arrancar usually reside. It lies in between the Human World and Soul Society. The landscape of Hueco Mundo is a seemingly never-ending white desert, with a multitude of dunes, littered with boulders. However at the edge of the desert exists an ocean of negative Reishi and there is said to be landmass past the ocean. In Hueco Mundo, the moon is on the opposite lunar phase of that in the Human World. The vast desert seems to lack any bodies of water and contains rocky formations. Like in Soul Society, the atmosphere is filled with a high concentration of Reishi, thus allowing smaller Hollows to gain nourishment despite the lack of Human souls. Similar to the case of real world deserts, active life in Hueco Mundo appears to be few and far between. Hollows generally dwell below the surface or in other areas until something provokes them to leave their shelter, like the intrusion of a foreign entity. According to the Shinigami, all Hollows dwell in Hueco Mundo regardless of their shape, size, or power. This Dimension shares the most Reishi concentration with Soul Society and the Valley of Screams out of all the Dimensions as a result living beings aren't able to travel to the Hueco Mundo through normal circumstances as long as they are still alive. Hueco Mundo has the highest concentration of Negative Reishi out of all the Dimensions.

Valley of Screams
The Valley of Screams is a dimension formed from the Souls ejected from the circle of life known as Blanks. Its appearance is a regular occurrence that happens naturally due to souls getting lost trying to get to Soul Society and as such, can only be accessed from the Human World. The valley is primarily a rocky area with many canyons and mountains. At its center is a long wooden pole which is rumored to be significant to a Blank regaining it's original sense of self. There is also what appears to be numerous Shoji type structures, with white tassels attached at the tops, embedded into the cliff sides. These, along with the surrounding landscape, begin to produce Blanks that seemingly wander endlessly without purpose. This Dimension shares the most Reishi concentration with the Soul Society and Hueco Mundo out of all the Dimensions as a result living beings aren't able to travel to the Valley of Screams through normal circumstances as long as they are still alive. The Valley of Screams has the highest concentration of Neutral Reishi out of all the Dimensions.

Dangai
The Dangai, also known as the Precipice World, is the dimension inbetween Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, the Valley of Screams, Hell and the Human World, separated from space and time. The Dangai is an isolated space which is surrounded by numerous stacked-up layers of time's current, resulting in it being a place where the density of time within it to be extremely high when compared to other exterior dimensions. To be precise it is over 2,000 times denser, meaning that when one hour passes in the outside worlds, an equivalent of 2,000 hours pass inside the Dangai. The Kōtotsu exists to stop anyone from lingering in the Dangai and possibly exploiting this time distortion. While the Dangai can be used to journey to and from Dimensions it is extremely risky and Shinigami typically utilize Hell Butterflies, Quincy utilizing Heaven Moths, Bount making use of Purgatory Wasps, Blanks with Limbo Bees while Hollow use Garganta to traverse through it normally in order to avoid this dangerous dimension. This Dimension is the middle ground in terms of Reishi amount comprising it not having high or low concentrations but merely have average amounts, this dimension is likewise the only one which has no effect on limiting the strength of those within it. The Dangai is the only Dimension comprised entirely of a perfect balance of Positive, Negative and Neutral Reishi.

Unique Effect
- Time in the Dangai Passes much slower than in any of the other Dimensions, as a result characters are capable of making use of this to great effect in order to further train and harness their abilities seperate from the normal IC-time frame. In addition being chased by the Kōtotsu results is a time-diliation effect which can result in being sent forward or backward in time however the amount of years is typically drastic often resulting in the death of whomever is pursued by it.
Time Period
Within Topic = Dangai - Other Dimensions
-5 Posts (Overall) = 1 Hour - A couple of seconds/minutes varies (excludes fade to blacks)
-1 Topic = 1 Day to a Week* - A couple of hours varies.
*Note when including Fade to Blacks topics can instead allow for a much larger amount of time to pass the max a topic under 50 posts (Overall) can pass in time is 1 month. At 100 posts (Overall) an entire year can pass while within the Dangai, 200 posts (Overall) Ten years and so on. However due to the sweeps done by Kōtotsu unless there are a couple of very active posters it is unlikely the upper limits in terms of time passage will be reached.
Time one can Remain in the Dangai Dependent on Reiryoku
Kōryū - The Kōryū is the current that is constantly flowing through the Dangai, in order to prevent enemies such as Hollows from using it. The current stops souls from moving, and even one foot caught by it makes escape almost impossible requiring Transcendent levels of Strength to physically pull oneself or others free. It encompasses the walls, capturing anyone who makes contact with them. When circumstances deem it necessary, the Kōryū can be stopped using a method referred to as Kaikyō Kotei or Realm Boundary Fixation. Normally, lower-echelon Shinigami enter the dimension in great numbers and using a special method, pour in their Reiatsu to fixate the current. However, individuals in possession of significant quantities of Reiatsu can single-handedly suppress the current for extended periods of time, but only after the insertion of four small forked blades into various locations along the Dangai's wall, and as long as the user remains connected to these items for the duration. Fixating the current however constantly drains the Reiryoku of one using it hence why it is typically employed by mutiple individuals rather just one as the drain on a singular individual is immense.
Kōtotsu - The Kōtotsu appears Once every Seven Days (OOC) to sweep the Dangai, contrary to Popular belief their is not one singular Kōtotsu but rather multiple and each move at a constant speed equivalent to Expert. Anything touched by the Kōtotsu is instantly killed and will be ejected in the Valley of Screams as a Blank. It is however possible to destroy a Kōtotsu as long as one utilizes a Transcendent rank technique, however the destroyed Kōtotsu will eventually reform from the Kōryū encompassing the Dangai.
Abilities of the Kōtotsu
*Once every 7 Days (OOC Time) Kōtotsu will jump into every active topic within the Dangai in order to clean them forcing anyone who is within these topics to either flee or combat it. If the topic was active and goes inactive after the Kōtotsu enters the topic they have a period of 24 Hours to post before the topic is automatically swept killing all of the characters within it.
*When destroyed the Kōtotsu will eventually reform within 24 Hours (OOC Time) however when it reforms rather than just one Kōtotsu there will be two, requiring both to be destroyed. Each time a Kōtotsu is destroyed two more reform thus eventually forcing those within the Dangai out by sheer numbers unless they are killed in the process of escaping.
Hell
Hell is the place where the dead are sent if they were wicked when they were alive and not spiritually aware. Meaning in short normal humans which committed wicked acts (mainly heinous crimes like murder, rape or torture) before being involved in the other world are sent there upon death. When the portal to hell is created the Gates of Hell manifest The Gates of Hell are chained shut and adorned with the bandaged head and torso of a skeleton on each door. The arms of both skeletons are positioned at an angle to pull the gates open when it is summoned. On the inside, the Gates appear to be prevented from opening fully by two thick ropes with charms attached to them. The face and left arm of a large demonic creature can be seen behind the Gates. It has armor plating on its upper arm and it wields a blade. Its left arm and face are covered in tattoos resembling tribal markings. The demon skewers the Plus/Hollow entering Hell with its blade, and pulls it through the Gates, while laughing. The Gates then close and the entire structure cracks and crumbles into nothing Hell has the second lowest concentration of Reishi out of all the Dimensions surpassed only by the Human World, this is not only to further weaken the Plus/Hollow which are being punished eternally but likewise serves to strengthen Hell's natural inhabitants. Hell is the only Dimension which has in addition to Positive, Negative and Neutral Reishi but also Positive, Negative and Neutral Kishi.
