(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 JutsuThis 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 TechniqueThe 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.
JinchuurikiYou 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.
SenjutsuSenjutsu 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 UchihaFor 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 RinneganDo 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 NinjutsuWhile 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.
