Dormammu I've come to ba... ask questions.

So, my first question was something else but now I'm curious: When it says "claimed by GM" does that mean it's forbidden or is it gonna be used by GMs? Now that I typed out the question I feel like this question inevitably spoils but my curiosity is forbidding me from not asking anyways. ;c

But WAY more importantly: HOW exactly is this AU? I did read OP, of course, and my assumption is: Pre-Naruto-show lore remains but from there on it's our thing? 'cause even though I'm not an expert or anything on the show/manga, as far as I know the lore is pretty fundamentally tied to characters and certain events that kinda enable the whole world and mythos. So I just would like some clarification on that, if possible.

Hi!

In response to the first question, the kekkei genkai mentioned in the OP are the ones that we the GMs are utilizing for our characters. While they're not necessarily [i]forbidden[/i], you'd have to speak with the individual if you wanted to use them! i.e., if you wanted your character to have Sharingan, you'd have to discuss with me, since that's the one that I picked. Having said that, for the most part we're pretty open and will likely be able to work something out!

The second question is: it's an AU in the sense that I've pretty much changed everything. The only thing I'm planning on maintaining from the original lore is the Sage of Six Paths(even then it's so ancient it doesn't matter). Everything from then on has been changed and tweaked. I don't really like using canon characters and stuff like that, so I'm mostly trying to avoid it. I'll have a timeline of recent history up to look at when I make the OOC proper.

Hope that answers your questions alright :)
