Tatsua Aiisen said Diamond Blizzard, this is the second time I've seen you around, making things that probably shouldn't exist.

Your sig is cute though, so I forgive you.


Too bad I'm not so forgiving.

Diamond Blizzard said Well, I don't mind losing the Mental Gekirinken so much, but I would really like to keep the first Gekirinken. Also yes, excuse me for not posting the time limit in which it has to be activated, there are two scenarios in which it can be activated and thus go into auto-hits, also perhaps the Taijutsu/Physical Gekirinken could do more damage depending on the hit of the technique? Example: a Tsunade punch would be suicidal where a normal kick would just hurt a bit.

Scenario 1

-I activate Gekirinken

-Opponent attacks me anyway-

-I go into Gekirinken, trapping them into an auto-hit combo.

Scenario 2

-Opponent Attacks me

-I activate Gekirinken

-Opponent chooses if Gekirinken hits or not or attacks me again anyway

-Goes into Gekirinken auto-hit combos
For Forbidden Gekirinken the same scenarios apply. Also I think a prep time of (one post) would be great IF the lengths of the jutsu activation were to be extended, but I don't get it, I expected Forbidden Gekirinken to be denied and normal Gekirinken accepted xD. So my technique would counter all jutsu minus S-rank jutsu if I keep feeding my barrier chakra.

Also, for my weapons and custom techniques; let's get it out of the way before we go into any arguments.




Custom Kenjutsu Techniques

[B-Rank] Kenjutsu: Sunlight/Moonlight Dance: The user raises their sword up into the air to absorb the light of the sun or moon into the blade, if the moon is out the blade is a light glowing blue color, if the sun is out, the blade is yellow and blinding like the sun. The user then performs elegant and powerful blows in in a combination of finesse strikes. Sunlight = Blinding and yellow. Moonlight = Glowing Light Blue

(Think Dancing Blade from Super Smash Bros. (Marth) but a more elegant manner and different combinations)


Scenarios Response: Wait, so when someone hits the barrier, the damage they'd inflict is reversed and strikes back at them? I mean, the barrier could absorb the force of the blow and then send a pulse or something, or augment your own hit, but you'd still have to land your hits for that to work. If you mean anything except for that, I am going to outright say no.

You can't simply reverse attacks like that, because (as I said for Mental Gekirinken) it does not make sense. You have to understand that I am coming from a place where I have a very strong understanding of how the mechanics of naruto function. Literally the only manner in which this ability would work is if it was augmented into an item of some sort, and even if that were the case that item would be OP as all hell and I'd have to outright deny it.

So basically what I'm saying, is either you can have the physical and forbidden Gekirinken be defensive techniques, or you can have them not at all. That is not debatable, because the nature of the techniques are OP, and that's not okay. End of story.
We use time as a measure here, not post count. The amount of time that transpires in a given post is relative, so using a post as a charge up, cool down, or use time is inconsistent and illogical. Sorry. I hope no one else has a problem with that, if so I can at the very least show you how using time as the counter works. It's actually pretty simple.

Basically all you have to do is figure out how long your movements and techniques would realistically take.

Such as a punch taking Half a second to 2 seconds to execute, or less depending on the speed of the punch and the distance the fist is traveling (both of which you do not have to calculate with any HARD numbers. Just approximate really). Things like "How long would it take my fireball jutsu to reach my opponent over the distance between myself and him/her". Simple things. Very straightforward. Moving on.

Fire Dragon Gauntlets

They can absorb and seal any fire jutsu, and then release blasts of flame offensively. No, they cannot. Want to know why? It's a logical thing. Unless they have an infinite pocket dimension inside them, or an infinite amount of seal space (newsflash, they do not), they can't do that. Chakra takes up space just like matter does, just less of it because it is energy. The amount of chakra that any given thing can absorb has to be limited or it is OP, because it has no limitation and thus can be abused with extreme ease.

While I don't mind it being able to seal several jutsu and then basically regurgitate the jutsu, I do mind the absorption aspect. You are trying to put way too many different things onto your character and at the moment it would be beyond OP. This is without considering the jutsu that can be utilized with the gauntlets or any of your scorch techniques, or the techniques of your blade.

So yeah, these laser techniques are a no, since lasers are composed of light not fire, and are also sort of the domain of a special affinity (Water+lightning). The firebending would be fine, that's pretty basic. The hidden blades and weapon materialization work too, but keep in mind these fireweapons wouldn't be solid since fire isn't solid. Unless they are composed of hardened chakra that happens to be on fire, which would be fine as well.

Sukochi

The fire will be capable of being extinguished. The rest is fine as it is basically running chakra through the blade using Chakra Flow and fire affinity, which superheats it.

Chance of temperature; That's not how the body works. At most the blade would cut flesh easier and would instantly cauterize the wound. Only the immediately effected area would change heat.

Acid of Fire: No.

Eruption: Has a larger chakra cost the longer it is charged. This also means it gains power with time.

Kenjutsu: Volcano: This is fine, but keep in mind the fire can be put out via normal means.

Kenjutsu: Ripture: This seems more like a genjutsu.
Custom Scorch Release Jutsu

Banishment of Hades: No. Just...no.

Internal Burning: No. OP due to being uncounterable for the most part.

Fire Pillar Fortress: Extremely chakra taxing. This would be S rank, not A rank. It'd also need to have a continuous cost per homing fireball, in addition ot the initial high cost of creating the fire pillars.

Fire Pillar: Would be effected by water techniques of equal rank as well as higher rank. Could be weakened by C rank water jutsu as well.

Hundred-Thousand Degree Armor: Newsflash, the armor cannot be that hot, it's ridiculous. people who can sense or see chakra can detect its use, but otherwise that's accurate. Also earth, lightning, and wind affinity techniques are unaffected. Earth, when melted, becomes lava which is more dangerous to your character...soo. Wind would just be heated. Lightning would be totally immune to the technique.

Heat Inhalation Technique: No. I already established why absorption is kinda ridiculous.

Melting Shoes Technique: Sure you can heat the ground, but this is at least B rank depending on the area of effect.

Kenjutsu: Sunlight/Moonlight Dance: Um...no.

@Celaira: I'm really loving how the site's gonna look hon :) Good job *thumbs up*

J2 said Arggh, stupid autocorrect. Meant dojutsu


Yes, yes you can make a custom doujutsu/Kekkei genkai. Though it being descendent of the Uchiha might not make sense at the moment since the Uchiha still exist in the current timeline and would not be terribly old. Nonetheless, it's possible that the offshot clan/kekkei genkai is relatively new/small. That'd work :)
@Loki: Senjutsu is really just jutsu that utilizes natural energy, rather than chakra from inside of the body. It also relates to taking on the traits of a particular animal depending on whether or not you're an animal sage (like Jiraiya, who is a Toad Sage for example). Steam is fine with me as it is really just a combination of water and fire affinities. Though it's called Futton(Boil Release) it is essentially steam :P

Go ahead.
DaDrummer676 said I'm interested but I'll have to read over all of the information again.

EDIT: Reading everything has definitely peaked my interest. I think most of what you asked have been decided so I'm not sure what to say. I like most of the ideas so I don't have much to complain about. I would like the Rinnegan to be wiped out entirely because watching the Pein Arc in Naruto made me cringe at the OPness. I find the Sharingan and Senjutsu not OP unless the person turns into a Sasuke or Naruto, both of which I find so OP it gives me a headache.


Well, if you read my little schpeel on that, then you see how I mitigate any OP potential they did have :P

Glad you're liking things so far :)

As to the Rinnegan, I leave it open (but only in the way I mentioned earlier) for reasons.

Celaira said first layout idea played around in photoshop and made this as a sort of guide for how I want the site as a whole to look. Working on hardcoding it at the moment. If anyone wants to contribute ideas go for it, I'm definitely open to them! I'll be making a test site soon so you guys can test the functionality.


I like, good jod <3

Altered Tundra said I can vouch on that. He IS worse. xD

>.>


If only they knew xD >.<

LokiLeo789 said I agree also
0=0
Sorry for not being here, I had to take care of the "trash".. For a long time...

Anyway I wish to be a user of the Byakugan, but will I be allowed to use the nature Jutsu. I don't remember seeing members of the Hyƫga use them.


Well I did mention what I'd probably do in regards to the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan (and such things) two pages ago in my post before this one. Here is the link if you missed that post. You can have a Byakugan user. What do you mean in regards to nature jutsu? Do you mean Mokuton(Wood Release)? If so, probably not. This early on in naruto history I doubt that people entertained the idea of interclan relations, if you catch my drift, and Mokuton techniques aren't something you can just learn. You inherit the ability to do them.

However, if you mean senjutsu, that's a whole different ball park and it kinda depends. Likely, yes, though to senjutsu.

DiamondBlizzard said Well, the ultra countering techniques would probably be a thin chakra "shield" which allowed instant reactions to anything coming contact within, it requires AMAZING Taijutsu skill and in return for it a lot of strain is put unto the body, and the chakra needed for this is huge.

Mental Gekirinken is less physical but in return needs willpower and intelligence, it involves reversing someone's Genjutsu against them (ALL Genjutsu) and a choice of chakra enchanted or non-chakra enchanted punches and kicks, every physical attack sent to the opponent, amplifies the damage done IN the Genjutsu, but WILL not be lethal nor leave wounds too bad.

Forbidden Gekirinken uses the chakra "shield" to allow to pass through techniques at a near-instant speed (It can still be dodged yes) but requires even more stamina and Taijutsu skill and puts twice as much strain as a normal Gekirinken, using this technique too much will probablly kill you.

All in all; Each Gekirinken can ONLY counter that art, a small exception to this is that Forbidden Gekirinken can counter Taijutsu but you're wasting away a LOT more chakra and straining your body more than needed.
I also have an OP-ish katana and some nice gauntlets I'm willing to find later on in the RP.


*Raises an eyebrow* Mmm, well first I was like, "maybe," and now I'm kinda just like, "No." Not overall, but just keep reading.

Jutsu require chakra and, depending on if they are maintained or manipulated after activation, focus. I mean the first Gekirinken sounds like a sensory field that hieghtens the user's ability to react to physical assault at high speed, which is fine. If it is a literal counter to taijutsu, then no, no you may not have it. At least not in the manner you implied previously. However, a sensory technique that works in a limited area to heighten reaction time and movement is fine, and would require far less chakra then what you seem to be describing.

Mental Gekirinken would basically be reflecting genjutsu, which honestly doesn't make any sense unless you have some kind of weapon/item that does that. I'm going to have to decline this overall because not only do you set someone's genjutsu onto them without any real understanding of genjutsu in your character (which is ridiculous and unfair), but it also makes essentially no sense.

You could probably have the Forbidden Gekirinken. It'd be an S rank technique, and it would likely be your only technique of that level of power. You could make it a barrier of X size and whatever shape, which disrupts and filters ninjutsu. This allows you to run through techniques of lesser rank, for a chakra cost of roughly half of that technique's output power (half its rank, so to speak). However, the barrier can only take as much as you give it, so if you don't constantly feed it loads of chakra you're only really going to be able to run through D or C ranked techniques consistently depending on the complexity and effect of the jutsu you're attempting to move through.

Also keep in mind that this barrier could break if you lose focus, if you don't give it enough chakra, or if met with something of equal or greater power than itself. So you're not invincible, you're just heavily defended.

By the way, you may not use any of these techniques at the same time and Forbidden Gekirinken would need to have a cool down time and a prep time. Perhaps it'd take 10-15 seconds to prep, and once it is broken/deactivated you can't reactivate it till roughly a minute or so later and that's if you have the chakra to do so at all. The other one could have a prep time of like 4 seconds, and a cooldown of like 10 seconds. Not a terribly big deal, but still necessary balancing factors.

As to an OPish kanata, um...no? You can't have an OP weapon. You can have a weapon with an ability, but it has to be balanced.
I would like to note that I'll be very choosy about who I allow to have an Uchiha, same with kage level characters and antagonists as all can be problematic and I feel must be watched to some extent. It's a quality over quantity thing really. With dedication and a few other factors added in there ;)
Hiya Empath :)

Welp, gotta go, I will see you amazing lot after a good 5-6 hours. Then I'll be around for the rest of the day...if everything goes fine, which hopefully it will ^^;

Try to get along.

Btw, Cela, look at the Sharing pad at roughly 12 (my time) <3
Diamond Blizzard said I'm interested in this, I have ideas and questions.

1. Limit Uchiha & Senju to 1-3 people per clan, thus adding permanent death.

2. Political intrigue will give the plot flavour, but I suggest going in an alternate history as in, what if Obito never died, etc, etc.

3. Limit bloodlines to 1-2 people, limit Rinnegan to 1, thus adding permanent death.

4. Allow Custom weapons, jutsu, etc.
Questions:

1. My main character is a Shakuton (Scorch Release) character who specializes in Kenjutsu and in Taijutsu, he is deadly to approach close-up, your best bet is Ninjitsu, providing he doesn't melt your leg off, would he be allowed? He has two custom items and I have a list of custom Shakuton techniques.

2. Could I play an antagonist

3. I have three ultra countering jutsu which are to keep people in check; they are Gekirinken,(counter against all physical attacks, there is no counter to this B-A rank) Mental Gekirinken (Counter against all Genjutsu techniques) and Forbidden Gekirinken (Counter against all Ninjutsu) I am ok with NOT having Forbidden Gekirinken, but I respectfully request Mental & Normal Gekirinken.


To your questions: Scorch release is fine, though I would obviously need to look over the techniques. At some point you could certainly play an antagonist :)

In the immediate moment I don't know what kind of antagonist we're going to have though, and I'd like to make sure everyone is in it for the long haul before I give anyone antagonist duties, so to speak. I hope that's not unreasonable of me.

Ultra countering jutsu? See, here's the problem with that, if anyone has something that has no counter itself, then the jutsu/weapon/kekkei genkai/hiden is OP, end of story. There has to be a way to resist, disrupt, overpower, or otherwise deal with any given ability or whathaveyou. So you can have two powerful techniques that defend you, or improve resistance to physical or mental techniques, but they cannot be the "be all end all," or even vaguely immune to all loopholes or whathaveyou. Especially not if they're in the same character that has shakuton, kenjutsu, and taijutsu. It'd simply be unbalanced and unfair.

Also, how do these Gekirinken work exactly because I can guarantee you that if you can't even figure out a logical way to counter physical and/or mental techniques that the jutsu itself would be impossible.

The only way you could really counter all of those would be if you had a physical barrier that was very difficult to pierce, a barrier that was sound proof and filtered out yin chakra and didn't allow certain materials to diffuse through it. The Forbidden Gekirinken could work by having a barrier/filter that dispersed chakra over its surface or disrupted the jutsu as it tried to pass through, turning it back into base chakra and rendering it useless.

However, all of these things would need to have weaknesses, and a depending on how much they can counter/block they would need a high(ish) chakra cost. Not only that, but i'd say the character would need to be a specialist in that area (barriers or the like) rather then also being extremely effective in close range combat. It's a balancing thing. it all depends on how you'd want to have things really.

Kal-El said Uchiha.

If you are going to replace a clan then replace them all. Don't be spiteful and replace just one clan cause you don't like it and ruin the fun for anyone that does. Don't give me an lip about Uchihas ruining rps because that would be the rpers themselves and the people that allow that to happen.


Hmmm, keep reading and you'll see my response to the Uchiha question/issue and such things.

FireBringer said In a perfect world I'd ban Rinnegan entirely, Sharingan beyond its first few levels, Senjutsu I don't think anyone lower than jounin should be capable really using it ever. The Uchihas just without their OPSharingan would be fine I suppose, whereas the Senju's I'd keep around, but not nearly as important, like they'd only have Yamanaka or Inuzuka level influence by the time of Chunin Exam Arc.

Perhaps as a compromise the Senjus and Uchihas are around but without their game breaking high-level jutsus they aren't nearly as important. Bijuu should be around but should be treated like WMDs. Making a Jinchuriki intentionally is akin to the Manhattan Project almost, and needs someone of Kage level skill to even ATTEMPT to pull off. Perhaps make the One through Four Tail capable of capture but difficult. Whereas Five through Nine are insanely difficult and the human cost to capture it is exorbitent. Remember the loose Nine-Tails crippled Konoha, with the Fourth Hokage, Sarutobi, Root, Kakashi, All the ANBU and Jounin in town along with the Toads and other summons. It's the equivalent of the North Korean Navy trying to capture a US Navy Carrier Group. You can try, but even with a positive outcome, was it really worth the cost? That's not even including the human element to keeping a Jinchuriki, it seems that most villages either treat them as a pariah, or a weapon, rather than a person. You really want a walking nuclear explosion that has an axe to grind against you specifically?


Well, I think we will be starting a bit before the warring clans era, so the Senju and Uchiha would still be relatively young, they'd not even know some of their higher level stuff I'd say. In regards to Uchiha, this is what I think I/we should do:

No Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan however, when/if you unlock Mangekyou you have some choices. You can continue to use your normal sharingan (for its analysis and the like) and only "switch on" mangekyou when you want to use higher level abilities. Amaterasu will be unable to be put out with water or oxygen deprivation, but it can be absorbed as a chakra, or filtered out/sealed in advanced seals/barriers. It will move slowly though, thus giving people the chance to dodge something that would otherwise almost certainly kill them. As to other abilities of the mangekyou, I would allow people to create custom ones, and while things like the Susanoo would have limitations as per usual (and would not have things like Itachi's mirror or the like). So manifesting it is not instantaneous, it can be broken with difficulty, and having it on limits your speed unless you're a super muscular bastard. Uchiha will have normal chakra capacity as well and Amaterasu and Susanoo will eat up their chakra fast as all hell, even if they have the highest chakra control around. The same limitations on Amaterasu, except for the speed due to its differing method of creation, will apply to scorch release (which must be learned by having studied, or been taught by, an Uchiha [that just plain makes sense since scorch release is more or less a slightly more limited Amaterasu]).

Oh yeah, and sharingan will not allow perfect replication/prediction of people's techniques ever. Replication of people's techniques can certainly happen, but depending on the skill of the Uchiha it will take them less or more training to properly copy someone's technique(s). Prediction will work, but only 2 steps ahead with normal sharingan and 4 with mangekyou unless you have a unique ability of your own construction for that. Keep in mind that eventually, with overuse of Mangekyou, your Uchiha will go blind and lose their sharingan's abilities overall as well as...you know, their sight and anything that comes with it. The amount of Uchiha PCs would be maybe 4 I think.

As to the Rinnegan, well, hehe, I have some plans for that. However, at base I'd say that it should be limited to a max of two people. Having the rinnegan would not instantly give you all of the affinities and you'd need to learn each of its paths. You would be allowed to make your own paths, but again they'd need to be balanced. Also, I think that if it's not a problem there would be two types of Rinnegan.

Rinnegan which gives you the paths, and rinnegan which allows powerful sensory abilities and Onmyouton(yin-yang release) chakra. Trust me, those two differentiations are equally powerful, I'd know.

I agree totally in regards to the jinchuuriki, you can't start with one, and capturing one is a huge pain in the ass, a pain which gets progressively worse depending on the beast's amount of tails.

Oh yeah, and senjutsu could be learned at around chuunin rank, but it'd be rudimentary at best. You'd only really get it if you want to be a full on sage of sorts. Otherwise any senjutsu talents/abilities you have would be grosslyp limited due to your lack of skill/training and dedication to that area. Sages will be around the same level as, you know, other people their respective rank. Yes, being one gives you certain advantages, but so does being specialized in anything. Hope that settles that.

FireBringer said Well I guess now the question is.... what's the next step? Make Character Sheets? If so, what's the launching premise we are settled on?


Well, if people agree with what I just stated about the clans thing, then this is where we stand.

Uchiha, senjutsu, Jinchuuriki, and the Senju will be limited as seen above.

We'll start a bit before the warring clans era. (Do the clan meeting thing?)

The world will be Alternate Universe(AU) excluding certain key elements such as the existence of a few canon clans and the Rikudo Sennin. We'll likely start as jounin at first and expand from there.

We're not doing a stat system, or at least not requiring one. Unless enough people vote for it and keep in mind that I won't be restrictive with it. I've worked with them thrice in Bleach, and they weren't restrictive beyond working as a useful reference/baseline to compare physical abilities/skills and stamina/energy pool. That'd more or less be how it'd work in here.

Partisan said Yosh, I know me and you are basically on another level of interest regarding Naruto RP (as shown from my interests in Naruto RP's vs. yours) but what about an RP where we all take part in 1 clan, waaaay before villages even existed. The first village would be founded and we (the clan) would be invited to join it and play part in it's creation and shit?


This could be interesting, we'll see what everyone thinks though. It might be easier to start out like this. Hell, maybe we're the first clan and we expand out, people splitting off and making the clans as we know them (and more). Also, hi there :P

Roxx said This is the best thing I've read on the forum- ever.

I typically don't pop in on Naruto/Bleach/FT/Etc RPs because, well, to be quite frank, people suck. In fact, I only came in here to see how dumb this would be. Now that Naruto ended I was expecting some silly post-manga story line, most likely with the new generation of kids. That being said, I absolutely love where this is going! I've always loved the 'idea' of the manga (the world, the power system, etc), but hated the main characters (and about 50% of the story line to be honest)- which is why this RP looks like it is going to be perfect. Or, err, ideal.

Short story made shorter: I am super interested in this.


Hehe, believe it or not, Naruto RPs used to be pretty damned awesome. Back when we had a pretty good community, but it fell apart a bit before Guildfall, and the fall only made things worse ^^;

I'm trying to reconstruct that and everyone is helping :D

I'm quite flattered that you like my idea of working together to make something amazing, and I'm sure everyone else will be glad to have you~

EDIT: By the way I have work in about an hour and won't be available for 4 and a half hours once I'm at work. Also, by the end of the warring clans era I don't know which clans will survive. So if any given clan doesn't exist by the end of things, that's just how it played out ^^;
Lost in my Mind said Zume isn't capable of conventional love!


Not true.

FireBringer said I assume I am missing out on some kind of in joke?


Mmm, not so much a joke as a character.

The Tatasuko clan is a clan of my creation. They're difficult to deal with, but not impossible if one has the necessary knowledge and is equally matched in terms of rank (genin, jounin level etc).

Specifically, Zume, who is the character I play of that clan is very difficult to deal with due to the unique circumstances he has. That and my own personal combat skills, which are bolstered when I use him due to the nature of his abilities meshing nigh perfectly with my combat style.

Shougaku is Zume's older brother...and he's, well, even worse really. Shougaku is meant more as a plot device and lore point than an actual character as he is conventionally dead usually. However, given the time periods we're considering he may be alive. If it's around the time of the sage then he'll still be alive, which is scary to consider. If it's before the warring clans period (by just a bit) he'll be alive, but not nearly as ridiculous/terrifying as he would otherwise be. Nonetheless, I'll tackle that when and if necessary eheh.

As to the Tatasuko replacing the Uchiha, that is largely unlikely as the Uchiha are direct descendents of the sage's son, whereas the Tatasuko have ocular and chakratic abilities more or less the opposite (in nature) of the Sage's abilities.
FireBringer said That... actually works remarkably well. However we'd have to deal with canon clans being around, namely the Senju, and <shudder> Uchiha. Should we just say they were decimated during the war, which allows two other clans to sprout up. While I have no problem with the Senjus, it's the Uchihas I can't stand.

The canon clans being around wouldn't be the biggest issue...but yeah the Uchiha are a major balancing issue, so I sorta agree.

Lost in my Mind said I would like it if we didn't have to deal with the god damned Uchiha. I really can't stand them, at all. So yes I approve of that course of action.


And you agree too...

Celaira said We could replace the Uchiha with the Tatasuko, Lost~


And so do you.

I'm pretty certain that Riddle would also agree, knowing her.

So aside from like three other people (Shadolord, FVGT, and Loki) we all seem to agree on that.

Also, lol Cela xD
Tatsua Aiisen said Wow, you're such a horrible person, never talking to you again. I hate you.


Well, if you're being serious--and I really can't tell--then that is quite the overreaction. I'd hope you're kidding of course...bleh, can't read tone sometimes over the internet :/

FireBringer said Clans is definitely an idea, another is that we are all students and at one point we all had one teacher. My knowledge of Naruto history really early on is sketchy, but isn't there some sort of Sage character who basically was the first "naruto-type ninja" that sounds like a foil that a GM/Storyteller could use as a means to send us off to deal with things, or dispense plot, or a resource. He doesn't necessarily have to do much, as the game would be our story, not necessarily his. It also provides a good point of divergence from Naruto canon, same world and laws, different history.


Also possible, and yes, though he was stronger than even naruto is by a long shot. He was called the Rikudo Sennin(Sage of Six Paths). That's another idea, and thank you for sharing with us Lost, eheh.
@Lost in My Mind: Why thank you Lost, haha ^^; Also good to know your stance.

@Shadolord: Yeah, I know the feeling. You can also call them specialists, or character who are minmaxing. However, when you minmax the wrong way you do get a character that is godmod. Nonetheless, a good GM can weed these out and make sure everything is fair and balanced. I've GMed enough to know the difference, and I've got a very firm grasp of the mechanics of Naruto, better than most it seems, so this shouldn't be much of a problem. Nonetheless, the stat system thing is going to be saved for a later point.

Mmnk, so you agree with that. Hmm....

@FireBringer: That is a good idea. To start in one place and expand from there. The only thing is making sure we're all in that one place without limiting people's character choices. Perhaps the start is a meeting of clans, and all of our characters are to go there. This would be if the idea of the RP starting a bit before the warring clans era.

@Celaira: <3

@Tatasua Aiisen: Noted, thanks Tatsu-chan. Though, as a note, if you're just going to make a character and maybe two posts before never showing your face as you seem to do very often I can't allow that. As, while I do enjoy the characters you create quite a bit, I cannot have my members vanishing willynilly, if I can help it haha. Don't take that the wrong way please >_>

Also, I'd prefer it if you not call me by that nickname ^^;
@Celaira: Yes I'm going to teach you, perhaps with the help of several others...for reasons. As to the base ability of characters being capable of effecting the plots, yes they'll at the very least be able to do that so no worries :)

(Second post response thingy): Also good things to note. If executed properly, no one has to feel restricted though. Nonetheless, we trudge on! I'll likely leave it to a vote of those who want a stat system and those who don't. As well as my common opinion. I might make one for funsies anyways so that we can see what we might have, even if we don't use it :P

@FireBringer: I actually really like that idea in terms of plot and method for the RP. Not sure if they'd start as jounin, though that might be best. Nonetheless starting as early as we can (probably a bit before the warring clans era) would be pretty cool. We'd go from just a naruto RP, to a truly different world that has the same basic framework, but some really new aspects to it. Any original clans or lore (weapons, villages etc etc) would fit into the world and wouldn't just feel...tacked on haha. I think this may work, but for the moment let's keep the floor open. Plus, this gives us an overarching concept, but not quite an actual plot for the individual generations. Still it would be really frickin' cool to see development like that. It would be both like building a world's history and indepth/long term character development. Plus we'd get to see how the actions of our characters echo throughout history rather than just in individual plot lines, which I at least think is really awesome. Anyone else?

In terms of a stat system, if we do one it will not be like most stat systems, which merely restrict people's creativity (as I do agree on this point), but will rather supply us with an easy method of comparing people's abilities. It might help if we know how fast, or strong, or durable people are in comparison to one another, in addition to how much chakra one person has in comparison to another. I had considered adapting a stat system I saw used in a certain bleach RP (Lost and Riddle, you know which one) that I was in to Naruto. Might help, it could even be optional and I'd be quite willing to help people do their stats or do it for them if they didn't want to do any of the annoying math (very simple math mind you, of which there is not a lot of). Anywho, moving on :)

Thank you for finding a character sheet, I will take some of its areas into consideration, though I have one in mind. Honestly, I don't mind what you put in your character sheet or how it looks as long as it has all the required information in it, which I will for sure write up at some point.

@Altered Tundra: I have actually seen situations where stats are not all that bad, mind you very few situations and in them the stat systems were custom built so that they weren't so invasive, but nonetheless I have addressed this in my response to FireBringer so yeah haha.

@Shadolord: Hmm, yeah I know that if I miss any "OP" characters then Celaira will smack the back of my head to tell me there is something wrong. She's good at that, and I tend not to miss things anyways so this shouldn't be much of a problem ^_^

@Riddle: I suppose I already answered both these points now...oops. Well...um, hi Riddle xD

@Lost in My Mind: MAKE A POINT DAMMIT!
Below are points that have yet to be addressed at all, no rush, I'm just making sure no one forgets ^_^

So what about political intrigue, war, inter-village interactions etc etc?

Do you even want the RP to start with more than one village open. I'd say allowing 1 or 2 at the start is plenty considering it'd otherwise be even harder to even vaguely fill the roster and have a solid plot.

Also, do you guys like it if/when I give suggestions for you to choose from or? Last thing, um, in terms of plot I tend to GM things a bit more like a sandbox where there is a plot you'll be roped into somewhat, but your characters actions will have real benefits and/or consequences.

I lied about that being the last thing, forgive my longwindedness and as my mind keeps coming up with more things to address haha. How much influence of the plot would you as players like to have? Do you want to be able to submit/create and execute your own arcs/plot lines (subplots for your characters may or may not fit in here depending on how vastly said subplot(s) would effect whatever main arc/plot is going on at the time)?
