BleachITP Reborn: Discussion & Setup Thread 7

They still have to hunt the Hollow down by tracking. Its still very much like a Bounty Hunter set up. Bad hunters get paid less. And they call it a Bounty as well. It was just a point to be brought up, nothing wrong with the character idea.

The difference is that Shinigami have to track down hollows in their area, while bounty hunters are given specific targets to find and hunt down regardless of location. Offense vs. Defense if you will. That's what I meant. The two systems are quite similar.

And, from what I gather, nowhere does it ever get stated that Shinigami even get paid for doing their jobs.

If I recall correctly, at one point Rukia laments that they didn't get paid as much as they she would have liked for the Hollows Ichigo had killed.
