[@McFazzer] Nah, that's fine. We get this request every time we do a Naruto RP. I always hate to disappoint these people but sage mode is just one of those things that [i]always[/i] gets tacked on 'for coolness factor' but never actually is explained or anything. We prefer to have it be earned IC, so that it has meaning.

If I give my character the nickname 'Slaughterer of the Million Uchiha' then that's cool, but it's pretty fucking meaningless if he didn't really earn it IC. :lol
