JUTSUS AND CHAKRA
Just in case you didn't already know[/center]
In order to have victories on one's opponent, ninjas have developed a variety of jutsus (literally techniques) which help them defeat any opponent. In order to perform a jutsu, a ninja must first perform the necessary hand seals for a specific jutsu and to mold the correct amount of chakra, depending on the jutsu rank.[/size]
TAIJUTSU
Taijutsu is the art of fighting hand to hand with your opponent unarmed. However, on this forum, armed fights are also considered Taijutsu. There are a lot of variations of Taijutsu styles, some that base on speed, others on power, and others that have specific traits and techniques of their own, being them armed or unarmed styles.[/size]
GENJUTSU
The art of illusion and deception, Genjutsu is used to confuse or distract one's opponent by messing with his senses, in order to grant the user the upper hand. Some more powerful Genjutsus can even cause the opponent to become out of combat, by putting them asleep, or making them insane.[/size]
NINJUTSU
Ninjutsu is, as the name says, ninja techniques. These are the most usual way for a ninja to fight and extend into the most wide range of types than any other fighting method.
Ninjutsus can be divided into two different groups, which can then have an uncountable amount of sub-types. The first group are the Elemental Ninjutsus, which use the five elements (fire, wind, lightning, earth and water) as base for offensive or defensive techniques. There are other variations of Elemental Ninjutsus which result from the mixture of these elements, but these are usually Kekkei Genkais.
The other group is the Ninpo's group, simple ninja arts that use surroundings, or special ninja abilities, such as concealment, spying methods, or arts as a base. Example of Ninpo Ninjutsu are jutsus that use pure chakra (such as Rasengan), jutsus like the ones Akimichi and Nara clans have, and every other ninja art that doesn't involve the five elements.
Jutsu Ranks
Rank E: Academy Student level jutsus. These are the most basic jutsus a ninja can have. Every ninja, in every village can learn this from the beginning if they wish.
Rank D: Genin level jutsus. More powerful than rank E jutsus, they are usually basic techniques of simple attacks or support. They consist on the basic "handset" of jutsus a Genin has.
Rank C: Chuunin level jutsus. More powerful than rank D, this jutsus cost more chakra also. Some rank C jutsus are great attacks or defenses for Chuunins, and some Genins use them as triumph cards.
Rank B: Jounin level jutsus. Here the true power begins. These are very powerful jutsus, used to finish fights against lower ranked ninjas for Jounins, and an ultimate jutsu for some Chuunin.
Rank A: Saanin level jutsus. Extremely powerful and with a great chakra cost, this jutsus are usually used to put an end to any battle. Jounins also have a couple of these techniques, although they only use them in more extreme situations.
Rank S: Kage level or forbidden jutsus. These are the most powerful jutsus there are, usually secret weapons or forbidden techniques. Even Kages have difficulty using these, due to their danger level and chakra cost. There are also some rumours that some Jounins managed to use one of this but only with dangerous consequences.
As a ninja grows up, its power grows as well. The following ninja ranks have the following amount of chakra points:
Genin/D-Rank Criminal: 50 CP
Chuunin/ C-Rank Criminal: 65 CP
ANBU Chunin/B-Rank Criminal: 75 CP
Jonin/Tokujo/A-Rank Criminal: 85 CP
ANBU Jonin: 90 CP
Sannin/Kage/S-Rank Criminal: 100 CP
In order to perform jutsus of certain ranks, one must use the following amount of chakra:
Rank E: 1 to 2
Rank D: 2 to 5
Rank C: 5 to 8
Rank B: 8 to 12
Rank A: 12 to 18
Rank S: 18 to 25
There is a variation on the chakra cost. This variation is due to the rank of the ninja and to the nature of the jutsu.
For example, a rank C jutsu could cost only 5 of chakra to a Chuunin while a Genin should use 8. Also, a user of an element, lets say fire, should use less chakra in a fire jutsu than, for example, a lightning user.
Also, there are no exceptions of costs for Kekkei Genkais. A Kekkei Genkai of rank C will cost between 5 to 8 and that's that.
Jutsus with a long period of usage (like dojutsus such as Sharingan and Byakugan) should have a chakra cost of 1 per post plus the chakra cost of the jutsu activation.
Summoning will also have a continuous chakra cost of 0.5 each post (1 CP in 2 posts). Also, every jutsu the summoning performs will use your chakra.
Finally, when fighting, don't forget of putting your current chakra and chakra limit.
Ex: 43/60 (For a Chuunin)
Remember this when performing jutsus in battles.
Learning New Jutsus
Jutsus now must be learned either from a Sensei or solo - It must be worked out (Rp how you learn it) before acquiring the jutsu - Without omitting the fact that the jutsu has a cost that must be paid to learn.
Beware that the higher the jutsu, the more complex the rp must be, or the mods can simply deny it to you. There is no limit of words here, so you must follow yourself only, or respect your Sensei's request.
The Jutsu Point each rank of jutsu needs is the following:
Rank E - 5
Rank D - 10
Rank C - 15
Rank B - 20
Rank A - 25
Rank S - 35
In order to get Jutsu Points, these are the ways you can get them:
3 - Battling! Battles will now earn you a certain amount of Jutsu Points no matter if you win or lose. However we will regard how you Rp and apply the rules. Good Rp skills, Intelligent Tactics and strategies and No breaking of rules are expected. You will gain more JPs if everything is done correctly. The amount of Jps you will get at the end of each battle will be from 4 - 8 JPs, and will be awarded to you by the Admin/Mod. The better you Rp and apply the rules, the more JPs you will get
Note : Godmodding cuts down JPs so be careful.
4 - Being a Kage is hard, for one must give missions to the others. As such, for each completed mission Kage's will receive an equal number of points -2, for each completed mission you have given your teams.
[/ul]Creating New Jutsus
You can create new jutsus like you used to do, instead of only using the lists of pre-made jutsus. However, if they are accepted (which will now be harder then ever), they will go to the lists and you can ask it when you have the requirements to do so. If you had an idea about a certain type of jutsus, simply request them in the request section, so they can be add to a list.
In order to have jutsus of your own, either you have a clan of your own, with it's premade jutsus (the clan must be really original)[/size]
