Putting this to a vote:

Would ya'll prefer to have both the Bingo book and the Full character sheet be totally public, or would you prefer for just the Bingo book to be public, and the Full sheet to remain private?

Notes

Bingo book includes the following:
Picture
Name
Alias/Title
Skills/Ability information: (this is the general skillset and does not include the jutsu list or kekkei genkai/hiden unless it is well known)
Known description: (includes known personality)
Known history: (self explanatory)
Influence: (How they are known throughout the world, if at all)

The full would be kept private so that no one can metagame/know your techniques/learn them without due process ICly.
If both are present however, you gain the chance to look upon all the jutsu, but have to self moderate (or be called out) not metagaming.

Bingo: 6.
Full Public: 3.

*One vote comes from Prince, who I know will vote Public, but is working currently*

So as a note, I realized that the character sheet didn't have a kekkei genkai/hiden/kekkei tota section on it. So I added that, as well as a few other minor additions, like, you know, history *coughs*

Here's the link to that post with the edited version.

First me via PM (use an existing one please) then I send you to FireBringer.

An Ideal Naruto RP

I am currently hard at work constructing the OP(Opening Post) for the OOC. It should be done tomorrow or at the end of today if I can get the premise and the like written. At the moment I have essentially everything else done.

An Ideal Naruto RP

Shadolord said I think i am going to restart my policy of using an external hard drive to store them. but Google Doc sounds good.

Luckily I have a near eidetic memory.

Sounds like a good idea, sorry that you lost all that man. I know those feels...far too well.

Sloth said It's great sans a few graphical glitches here and there and the occasional character model going wonky while standing in place, but I didn't encounter any of those until the second act of the game, which is a long way in.

I do have a couple questions regarding the forbidden/limited list though.

1. So what's the deal with space-time ninjutsu?! (More specifically, stuff like the infamous Flying Thunder God Technique, etc, just trying to gauge whether or not someone can pop up with an instant teleportation no jutsu.)

2. What if someone (It may or may not be me) wanted to make an Uchiha character who would eventually become a Sage? Plot twist and minor spoiler: He's blind. Is that kosher?

3. Regarding Bijuu, or demons in general, how hard would it be to fight one alone and seal it into an item rather than a person? Obviously the higher the tail count the harder it gets, but I may or may not be tinkering with the idea of the genesis of the Seven Swordsmen, or rather, a very specific sword used by them. It may or may not eat peoples' chakra and stuff. I promise it isn't made of shark skin. (Though if I were to do that it'd be with a very high level character, so I may be misreading the supposed timeline of the RP and just what we're supposed to start off with.)

That's about all that comes to mind in terms of shamelessly selfish questions regarding character ideas.

Good to know that it's a good game :P

1.) I just added to the Limitation/ban list in regards to those. If you're asking I figure you want to use some sort of space-time ninjutsu? If so, throw me a PM and I'll disclose the limitations ;)

2.) That is fine. I have altered the limit on Uchiha so that only 5 people (for the moment) may have the Sharingan, but Uchiha who do not possess it are still allowed after that limit is met. So yes, you may do that.

3.) Fighting any Bijuu alone aside from the Shuukaku is going to be nigh impossible. There are always exceptions due to people specializing in areas that may make such easier, but that is the general rule. However, if you had an S rank individual and a few others to assist you it might be possible to do so. Nonetheless, it would be extremely difficult and there would likely be a high casualty rate. As for high level characters, clanheads and several others may have either A or S ranked individuals. Whether you (generally) deserve either rank will depend on the quality and effort put into your character sheet. Yes you may work on the Seven Swordsman, though keep in mind that the Mist, nor any of the other major villages, exist at current time.

Masaki Haruna said Good stuff Yosh-kun btw you forgot to mention Limbo/Hengoku(Madara's unique Rinnegan Hax invisible shadow clones) and Amenojikitara(Sasuke's unique space time Rinnegan jutsu which is like Hiraishin without seals) I assume both are either banned, limited, nerfed or totally banned.

Also: I assume you changed canon fact of having Rinnegan like:

Spoilers

To have Rinnegan, needs senju dna/Ashura chakra to add to the Uchiha/Indra reincarnation.

I have added those things to the Ban/limitation list ;) Thanks Masaki~

Everyone I am up and at 'em, and as such I am in the IRC room if anyone wants to hop in with me :P

EDIT

Shadolord said Here you are

As a note, quotes do not copy over hiders and things in them, you have to do that manually ^^; It's annoying, I know, but I got you covered.

paigesweetheart said Okay cool. Do we have a CS?

Here Paige, this is the link to the post with the character sheet.

An Ideal Naruto RP

(Dragon Age:) Inquisition eh? How's that game, looked pretty good from what I've seen, but I've not had the privilege of playing it yet.

Below are two things I'd like thoughts from all of you on. If any of you think of some jutsu that should be outright banned, or limited, please give me wiki links to the naruto wiki so I can take a look. Thanks.

This link goes to Celaira's Mock-up pictures of the Website that she has so kindly constructed as a repository and reference tool for our RP. Please take a look and give her any feedback you can, even if it is just saying you like how it looks, she would appreciate it greatly. Thank you.

Banned/Limited Jutsu
This list is subject to edits as I may see fit to add other techniques to it. Additionally, game-related jutsu, kekkei genkai, weaponry, or hiden are not considered canon and thus are not available for use.

Shunshin, the Body Flicker technique, and Lightning Release armor cannot be used simultaneously--End of story.

Body Replacement Technique
The Body-replacement technique requires you first mark an object with your chakra. Once marked, you must execute two handseals to activate it, after which it will activate 2 seconds later switching the user’s position with the marked object.

Jinchuuriki
You may not start as a Jinchuuriki. These must be captured by clans/villages ICly. Additionally, capturing one is a huge pain in the ass; this pain gets progressively worse as the beast’s tail count rises. As such it would be no small endeavor to catch even the One Tailed Shukaku, so don’t go about thinking that kind of thing will be easy.

Senjutsu
Senjutsu may be learned at around chuunin rank, but it will be rudimentary at first and require diligent training and development. Tapping into senjutsu will only be useful if one intends to become a fully-fledged sage somewhere down the line. Otherwise any senjutsu talents/abilities you learn are likely to be grossly limited due to lack of skill/training as well as dedication to the art. Sages will be around the same level as, other individuals of their respective rank.

The Uchiha
For the moment the maximum amount of player characters possessing the sharingan is 5. For now these characters must all be Uchiha, meaning you cannot make someone who has stolen the Sharingan and implanted it. This is subject to change depending on the circumstances and the outcomes of the roleplay.

The Mangekyou Sharingan, when unlocked is not immediately an Uchiha’s default doujutsu. They may continue to use their normal sharingan, choosing when to activate or deactivate their Mangekyou. The Mangekyou must be obtained/awakened ICly.

Amaterasu will be unable to be put out with water or oxygen deprivation as per the usual, but it can be absorbed via seals, or filtered out/sealed in advanced seals/barriers if they are not outright destroyed by the flames first. The flames will move slowly. These weaknesses will apply to scorch release techniques as well, which must be learned from an Uchiha via observation or direct tutoring.

Susanoo may not possess the Yata mirror or the blade that Itachi’s wielded. Its manifestation is not instantaneous and the skeleton/figure created by the technique is incredibly heavy, disallowing high-speed movement almost entirely during its activation.

Both Susanoo and Amaterasu will possess high chakra costs no matter the user’s chakra control.

As the Mangekyou was originally stated to give unique abilities to each Uchiha who awakened it, this will be the case in this RP. You may choose to possess Amaterasu and/or Susanoo, but you do not have to. Any given Mangekyou Sharingan has a maximum of three abilities, two if you wish both to be expansive and particularly potent.

The 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, an Uchiha will go blind and lose their sharingan's abilities overall.

Izanami, Izanagi, Kotoamatsukami, and Kamui are outright banned and thus do not exist in this verse. The same is true for the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

The Rinnegan
Do not ask for it, for the answer will be, no. It does exist, though the form it exists in are somewhat different. When and if the Rinnegan is implemented only two people, maximum, may have it. Possessing the Rinnegan will not grant the individual all five affinities unless they obtain both types.

The two types of Rinnegan are as such. There is the Paths Rinnegan, which allows the holder the potential to learn and utilize the six paths. The second form is the Sensory Rinnegan, which allows sensory abilities roughly equivalent to the Byakugan in addition to Onmyouton(yin-yang release). The two forms are equally powerful and equally rare.

Rinbo: Hengoku and Amenotejikara are both banned. Ashura and Indra, the sage’s sons in canon, will not reincarnate, and as such their DNA is not strictly required to possess the Rinnegan.

Space-Time Ninjutsu
While I will not outright ban space-time ninjutsu, I will say that if you create one it is going to receive harsh scrutiny. Furthermore, Hiraishin, aka the Flying Thunder God Technique, will gain certain limitations depending on the skill of the user in the area of fuinjutsu. I will disclose these weaknesses when they are necessary for someone.

I don't recall joining Prince's RP, though he's helping me a bit with the Opening post and is around despite not having commented in the thread. I've been quite well actually, glad you found a way in hahaha.

How've you been?

*works on the banned and limited jutsu thing*

An Ideal Naruto RP

Thank you for the tip Diamond, hope you find somewhere to RP that you enjoy!

Oh look, it's Sloth. How goes it?

An Ideal Naruto RP

The Rules

1.) Metaphors, similes, analogies and other figures of speech used in any description made by a roleplayer are not considered 'true' and can be contested and debunked by a Moderator or two-thirds vote of the present player roster. This applies to any background, history or description of an item, character or event not made by Staff.

--Translation, do not try to slip in loopholes by using clever wording or hiding abilities throughout your sheet that ought not be there. Be straightforwards, and honest about your characters abilities and I’ll never have to point you back at this rule.

2.) Anything created by the players for the setting, or for their characters, is subject to use and subjugation by the Staff. This does not apply to specific characters or items, but it does apply to anything not approved into the setting and used as descriptors for their characters, items, or events, such as NPCs.

--Basically, if you make a clan, I may make an NPC, as can anyone else, within that clan without asking first. If you make three ancestral weapons for your clan and only use one for your character, then a GM, or other individual, may use said weapon for another character or plot point. That’s the jist of things at least.

3.) The staff/moderators have the privilege of going back and changing any aspect of this roleplay, including the characters and events which have happened and/or were not created and subsequently accepted by them; anything that was accepted will require approval from its creator.

--Myself and/or any future GMs may go back and make changes where needed, though we cannot do so after a character, or the like, is accepted unless the creator of said character gives permission.

4.) I, and any other GM has the right to end an arc, and skip it with a timeskip resulting in whatever edits, additions, and/or plot events we see fit from the last posted point in the Arc, till the point after the time skip. We may kill a character or the roleplay entirely at any time and that they decide whom may create a splinter RP in the same extended universe. I will usually ask to kill someone’s character, and will try to work with people if we need to skip an arc entirely.

5.) Going hand-in-hand with the first rule, I and the other GMs are allowed to interpret metaphor, simile, and the like as I see fit as long as my interpretation does not contradict previous actions in the course of the RP.

6.) No godmodding, metagaming or powerplaying. If you forgot what these mean, read below:

Godmodding: The practice of controlling someone else’s character without their express permission to do so. Even minor actions can fall into this category. Autohitting falls into this area as well, as does being able to dodge/block anything/everything

Metagaming: The practice of your character knowing OOC knowledge that he, she, or it had no way of obtaining. This will include suddenly figuring out someone else’s abilities/jutsu and how it functions after it has been told or narrated to in the IC. Unless there is a logical manner to discover in the information and you successfully achieve such, your character should not and will not know it. I may chew people out for doing this, seriously.

Powerplaying: Basically making your character godawful powerful for the sake of being powerful, often without the character having any real substance (personality, backstory/history etc). Not as terrible an offense, and it won’t happen since I’ll be grading CSes. To avoid this consider whether or not your technique/Kekkei genkai/Weapon/Armor abilities can each be counter in some manner and that together they do not make you invincible, if they are counterable, then they’re likely fine.

7.) This roleplay, as a collaborative project, is about working with one another, and while there is certain to be conflict, due to the nature of the Narutoverse, please remain civil. If an issue cannot be solved amongst yourselves and it is not strictly personal, differ to the GM(s), aka myself (for the moment). If it is personal, you will be promptly told to take it to PMs, and if you don’t, there can and will be consequences for disrupting the peace.

8.) My word is law, if I say no to something, or allow something, it’s typically a done deal. If I however missed something, feel free to inform me. I am not beyond reproach.

9.) This is an AU(Alternate Universe) roleplayer, and as such none of the canon characters ever existed excluding the Rikudo Sennin(Sage of Six Paths) and his two sons.

10.) If you need to take a leave of absence, tell myself or someone in the RP who can get the message to me, first. I will be quite aggravated if people disappear all willy-nilly. If you have lost your will to be in the RP, exit your character, or at least tell me you are officially leaving. If you are gone for 3 days without prior notice and you are holding up posting, I will puppet your character out of the way. If you are gone a week, I will begin moving them into position for removal. If you are gone 2 weeks, then your character will be killed off. However, if you tell me, I will merely move your character aside and you may pick up with him or her later on. Oh yeah, and have fun damn it!
