This roleplay will focus particularly on the lives of people living under both a peaceful, stable dictatorship and those that live a rebellious life, resisting this dictatorship. We will be playing chunins exclusively meaning that, if you want to play a rogue shinobi that goes around killing people, you won't be able to do that in this roleplay.

This roleplay will feature mature content in the sense of gore and violence. This is Naruto. However, it is Naruto of the first and second war periods - war isn't nice.

Furthermore there will be a small amount of slice of life involved. We want to offer your character the chance to grow in the sense that not everything they do has to involve combat. Falling in love is real, and it happens to shinobi too.

These are warnings ahead of time. If you don't want to participate in the RP due to these focuses, then thank you for your time, and best of luck in other roleplays.

C ᴀ ɴ ᴏ ɴ ?

The setting of Naruto: Unity or Freedom takes place approximately 200 years after the the deaths of Boruto and Sarada. The specific time period is not of any relevance in this scenario, however it should be noted that this universe takes place in another universe, and therefore it is up to the GM's discretion to alter or change any canon events as they see fit in order to benefit the story and/or setting. You should not expect any changes in canon however. This is just so I can have creative freedoms if I need to. For the purpose of creating a character sheet, all canon shall remain canon.


T ᴇ ᴄ ʜ ?

Due to the year being 200 years after the deaths of Boruto and Sarada, many technological advances have been made. There are now small amounts of trucks, motorcycles and cars. However, these are reserved for the wealthy, and a shinobi should not expect to own any of these amenities. Furthermore, there are no 'M4's' or such, since shinobi with automatic rifles would be hilarious, but ultimately not Naruto. It should be of little impact on the actual task of shinobi or their lifestyles. The only difference is that the skyscrapers we saw in Amegakure previously are now prevalent in other villages as well. That's about it.


P ᴏ ʟ ι ᴛ ι ᴄ s ?

Politically the world has changed as well. This is the primary change and perhaps the most important one. Given Naruto unified the shinobi world (or rather, the kage's did, because lets face it, Naruto didn't do much other than spread the word of peace and love) that change will continue and will have expanded.

Between the rule of Naruto Uzumaki as hokage, and the rule of Sarada as hokage, the different shinobi villages (and their respective countries) unified more and more, with new governmental organizations being created to facilitate the unification. The countries became less and less independent, until a figure appeared that took control of Amegakure. Amegakure was at this time the center of the countries, and therefore was the capital of all international organizations.

By persuasive and diplomatic means this figure then took control over all the independent countries following the bloody coup d'etat that took place in Konohagakure in which a powerful figure was assassinated, as well as an attempt on the life of the dictator that ruled there as hokage. Complicity of this figure that now controlled large amounts of the world politically was suspected but never proven. As Konohagakure was the last beacon of independence, other villages were soon conquered politically and diplomatically without a single drop of blood being shed. ... of course, opponents were rid of silently behind the scenes.

The new country would unify all of the world, and it became known as the Hamajō Confederation. Former countries were now labeled as provinces and this new government took seat in Amegakure, annexing small parts of surrounding countries to grow Amegakure's powerbase. Following the annexation of all villages and countries, peace followed, or did it?

Shorthand: 'Jiyutai'

The Jiyuna no Guntai ('Army of the Unfettered') is the rebellious army that objects to, and actively fights against, the rulership of the Hamajō Confederation. Although they lack a consistent leadership and consist of multiple smaller groups of shinobi, the general leadership of the organization is lead by the most powerful of these shinobi. This shinobi has unified all of the rebels under the banner of the Jiyuna no Guntai, and is now organizing effective and efficient strikes against the Hamajō infrastructure.

While they lack numerical superiority, they are made up of.. interesting ranges of people. Their underdog position means they have had to accept shinobi of all walks of life. While the largest staying force of the Jiyuna no Guntai are regular shinobi that dislike the Hamajō Confederation, there are some of less pleasant backgrounds, such as rogue shinobi, that reach up to jonin levels and higher in regards to their strength. But even the Jiyuna no Guntai have their limits, and they do fight rogue nin if they are deemed a danger to the security of other villages, despite the fact that the Jiyuna no Guntai are technically fighting these villages.

Shorthand: 'The Confederation'

The Hamajo Confederation, despite what Jiyu propaganda would like people to think, is a stable and relatively peaceful confederation that focuses on increasing the prosperity of all people under their rule. While their criminal justice system is somewhat arbitrary, and perhaps too efficient (read: brutal and cruel) they do a good job at maintaining public order. Their leadership rules with an iron fist and whatever they say goes.

Although there are many critical thinkers that critique the Confederation, they are quickly shut up. A detailed, efficient and brutally effective secret military group called the 11th corps makes sure that anyone that thinks ill of the Hamajo Confederation is arrested and interrogated. If it is deemed necessary, they are liquidated to protect the public order as well as the face of the Confederation.

They have not named the Jiyuna no Guntai 'Jiyuna no Guntai' once in their public statement - in the eyes of the Confederation, the Jiyuna no Guntai are little more that criminals, rebel scum that needs to be eradicated. So far this has not been a prime concern, as up until recently the Jiyuna no Guntai have been unable to deliver any large strikes, but this is about to change.


T ι ᴍ ᴇ ?

Although time isn't too important for the RP, there are some points I would like to accentuate. The Hamajōc confederation has existed in it's current form for approximately eleven years, give or take a few months. That means that most chunin (read: your characters) will have experienced the coup d'etat in Konohagakure as a child. Despite not being from Konohagakure (unless they are) this could have had an impact on your characters. Furthermore over the last five years, the Hamajō Confederation has been tightening it's control over peoples opinions and thoughts, with people who are too outspoken and critical of the Confederation being questioned. Some are never heard of again. As such your character may know of this or have experienced it or even partaken in the job of interrogating people that were questionable in nature. Keep in mind chunins would not deal with anyone that was a innocent person that was just asking too many questions, but would deal with criminals mostly.

Previous experiences with GMing Naruto roleplays have shown we need rules because people are fuckboys/fuckgirls and will just straight up be annoying if left unchecked. These are here for me and you.

Because Naruto is a diverse world with diverse techniques, with some more balanced than others, we have chosen to make several rulesets for characters for each rank. This is to avoid situations with, for example, a chunin who has the rinnegan, fighting some chunin who barely has a single B rank technique. It's also to avoid broken jutsu, such as Flying Thunder God, being used to cheese fights. It might seem like a fun thing to give your characters, especially if they have a historical reason for having that jutsu. And I agree, it's a fun niché thing that makes it more interesting. But looking at pro's and con's for these kind of jutsu, we have to decide that ultimately it's not worth it, because that means your jutsu will give you pleasure, but it will detract that of those that go up against your character, or those that wanted something similar but got denied. It's put in place to avoid bad situations where two people cannot reach an ultimatum about fights. Simple as that. We do not accept arguments about these things, they're set in stone. If however you can give us a good reason in a respectful discussion, we might consider.

If you feel like your character might have, for instance, an extra A-rank jutsu.. that's possible. We might accept that if you can justify it to us in a PM or in an OOC comment. For example, two A-rank jutsu that form a combo, but are otherwise not that useful, is perfectly acceptable. But if you justify it by saying 'Oh he's a prodigy, he was like Sasuke and is just super cool like that.' then we're not even gonna reply.

General bans refer to simply not being allowed to have this jutsu on any character, in or out of battle.
Combat bans refer to bans for combat only, meaning they are allowed outside of combat.
Limit jutsu refer to jutsu that are allowed, in and out of combat, but have limited usage.

Flying Thunder God Jutsu - general ban.
Body Flicker Technique - combat ban.
Body Replacement Technique - limit jutsu, 3 uses per battle.
Chimera Technique - general ban.

Shorthand: Jiyutai

When the Hamajō Confederation rose to power, the remnants of the armies that fought in the great wars were scattered, and still feuding over previous conflicts. They were killing each other, these remnants, over issues that were no longer present. But slowly the realization set in that - perhaps - they were only slaughtering allies against a greater enemy, an enemy that would gladly see these remnants slaughter each other. From this realization was born the Jiyuna no Guntai - Army of the Unfettered.

The Jiyuna no Guntai is what the army of rebels that fight against the Confederation calls themselves. While they are small in numbers, they are a growing power and recently became more unified after a certain shinobi took power in these rebellious groups and unified them, centralizing control.. as far as that is possible. Shinobi leaders cling to power, and some groups cooperate better than others. Never the less, they're becoming bigger, stronger, and will soon be able to strike more effectively and force the Confederation to take them seriously.

The Jiyutai accepts anyone who can proves they are trustworthy and loyal to the cause. This means that rogue shinobi, upon proving they are to be trusted and are loyal, can get accepted. However, since the main force of the Jiyutai is just regular shinobi, this has not been a great cause of concern so far.

Shorthand: the Confederation


Perhaps they call us tyrants, and perhaps they are right. But look me in my eyes and tell me I do not supply for my people - tell me I do not protect them from evil - tell me I do not try my hardest to keep together these god forsaken people to teach them true value in life. Tell me that. Tell me what is tyranny? Is it when I use force to protect those close to me, my children? Is it when I care for those under my wings? If so, then I am the biggest tyrant. But the people don't know that and they don't need to know. THAT is how we rule, and that is how we make sure the Hamajō Confederation has stayed alive all these years.


The Hamajō Confederation is the current ruling state in the world - all former countries are either provinces or special protectorates. In theory, those are two different things, but in practice these have become one and the same thing - only matters of prestige for governors and the like. The Hamajō Confederation has for that reason become a rather strong figure in people's daily life's, and that isn't necessarily 100% positive. It's not a secret that the Hamajō Confederation uses not an iron fist, but a steel fist imprinted with diamond studs on the knucles, to keep down troublemakers and criminals alike. And it's not hard to be a criminal in the confederation - there are many things made illegal nowadays to 'streamline society into an organised community of like minded individuals who wish for nothing but the best.'

Never the less life has flourished - to a degree, and depending on where you live and how influential you are - there is plenty of food to go around and reported crime is at an all time low. That said corruption is rather common in the Hamajō Confederation at the higher levels of the government, given that there is really nobody to oppose the corruption. Most shinobi however, are still very honorable.

The forces of the Hamajō Confederation are more or less the forces that keep everything in check - after all the police cannot be trusted entirely when it comes to bribery, and there are simply some matters, especially political, that are better left to shinobi. You can't trust a policeman to.. take care of a loud politician, can you?

After some wars back in history, several powerful shinobi took power in most of the villages and enforced their own 'laws'. These shinobi called themselves Keihatsu - the Enlightened, led by Kusaru and her mysterious henchman Gian. This was the beginning of the confederation, as these powerful shinobi saw each other more as allies than enemies, with a sceptical view ofcourse. The focus wasn't on gaining more power for themselves, and less for the other rulers, but more on retaining and maintaining power for all the rulers. Over the years this turned into a state where the former states were transformed into nation provinces. The Confederation is what evolved from that in the process described before.

Review in red. Warning to all further people that get reviewed: everything I say is to be taken with a grain of salt. Because reviewing is boring and I want to make it fun for myself. If there are really glaring issues I'll just state it needs to be changed.

Allow me to be the first non-Jonin that submits my character app.

I need you to look this over and read my suggestions. Nothing ground breaking. Also I'm gonna need you to add one small section in th CS skeleton that I'll detail in a minute in a seperate post.

Are they a Hamajo Confederate, or a Jyutai Rebel?


Gonna need you to add this above into the sheet if you can. It's kinda a critical part.

As for Krot, you can post your character in the CS bin if you took a look at my suggestions *cough jokes cough* and then changed what you felt neccesary + put in the thing above.
