So I'm highly interested in this and hope you will still accept a lonely new comer, oh also if I remember from the first page at all, @Halvtand I don't remember if you were in the Naruto RP I first joined as my first RP on the guild, or if it was the one I joined with you with our squad of genin, I believe it was on the old guild? But I had a character who had a unique Dojutsu that surpassed the Sharingan in genjutsu, but only because it's only use was genjutsu, wait...Actually now that I think about it that might be here somewhere...I've made too many Naruto characters...Point is I could remake, or try and find it...Actually I think I remember it now, and it was an RP on here and I do believe you were in it! It was my Megumi character I believe! But anyway I could dig that up if you're looking for Genjutsu that'll mess with the opponents mind, through their own doing! (If you don't mind it being a KG that is) Also I need a little help...If you're still excepting I need someone to choose, Heads or Tails?

@Ciphra I remember you... Vaguely. And I remember that KG! Vaguely. It sounds familiar.
I know we've played some Naruto-stuff together, but a quick run through the games in my subs-list hasn't turned up anything tangible. If you can find that character I would very much appreciate it as I seem to have gotten stuck and is now going around in circles...
Anyway, we gladly accept new players. If you've read the thread so far you'll see that we have... Only one approved character, so there is still time to jump in and be apart of the game from the start. I think everyone has at least posted a WIP, so you can get a picture of what we already have going for us. Not that we can't double up on stuff of course.

As GM of this game I officially abstain from voting on your character-thingy. This way I can claim that I let my players have a say in what goes on, and can heckle people about the disaster they are about to bring.

@Halvtand What do you think about a water clone jutsu that freezes the opponent after it explodes or burns them with hot water(basically change the temp. of the water that the clone is made of and make the clone explode if the user wills it)
And basically my character will have the ability to change the temperature of the water even up to the point to change it's form enhancing moves like "Water Bullet".

My first thought is that its seems like a fine ability. However you would need some kind of "root" of this ability that explains it. Other players would for instance combine the water element with air and/or fire to create the ice and steam elements, but I assume that you're not after new elements but rather an ability to alter temperature, correct?
If so I would like to know how this ability is similar or different from the elemental chakra GKs? And also if this ability is considered a KG in itself, or a hijutsu-technique, or some other form of ability?

tl;dr - I like it, please elaborate.

It's a "hidden technique" which I learned from the book containing techniques passed down from generation to generation from my clan. This is the only technique written in a book whilst the others are passed down orally but since my character was only a kid he never had the chance to learn even a single one, with what happened and all. But even the book requires a hidden technique of it's own to be read which is only passed orally(else what's the point) and he learned this from his geno-sensei which in turn learned it from my character's father(because sensei is not part of the clan but was considered a brother to my char's father). I would also like to add a sword "secret technique" that he learned from geno-sensei himself while in his run from the Hidden Mist assassins.@Halvtand

@Halvtand What do you think of a Kekkei Genkai that uses fire nature and wind nature to use in a similar fashion to Scorch Style but instead of evaporating water in the body it slowly drains chakra with each hit. Also instead of taking the form of fire balls the flames come off the hands and makes it appear as if the users body is on fire. If it is allowed though my character wouldn't yet have the ability to use it right now anyway.

Hmmm......Now i have to come up with a concept...Oh also I'll look for that character and PM it to you later most likely @Halvtand! I might make an Uchiha...And fuck all the complaints that come with usually...I could do a Nara, but that's not strong enough for the character I plan on making...I could use one of the Genjutsu Clan I made and perhaps if you do taht as well they could be siblings or something? Hmmm...Anyone have any suggestions...?

I like the backstory of this, and the detail about the scroll being locked with some kind of password, it fits with the whole setting very nicely.
What kind of temperatures are we talking about, really? Is the technique able to create ice and steam or is it bound to "freezing cold" annd "hellishly hot" water? I don't want to be that guy, but since ice and steam are considered KGs in the canon I would need a really good reason to allow a non-KG to have the same effect.
One restriction I would put on this is that I think your character would've had to share this info with either Hyuuga Hiroshi or another "trusted" and more skilled ninja in Gobi.
Naruto (ep 1) and the forbidden scroll aside, people generally need guidance and instructions when they learn new techniques to get it right. Because Hiroshi is a jounin (legit) he has the kind of experience needed to actually teach someone from a scroll.

Secret sword technique, yeah, go ahead, as long as it isn't "totally OP, OMG NERF!" I generally don't see the point in beating something down until I've actually had a chance to see the whole thing.

@alexfangtalon There are a few chakra absorption techniques in the canon. Please have a look at those.
Do keep in mind that while KGs are allowed in the game, they are supposed to be extremely rare, and even more so in a village like Gobi.

@Halvtand I haven't completed the biography just yet, but I was going to have him been born in a clan from Suna. He won't even know he has the ability to use it for a good while. Even then he would have to learn to use wind nature before using it.

Edit : Also he wouldn't really absorb it. He would just dissipate a small amount of it.

@alexfangtalon Like I told Bishop before, I generally don't see the point in shutting down someone's idea before I've had a chance to see how it all fits together.
Do be warned though, we allow people to be born outside the village, but it is not something we're really thrilled about. One of the major themes in this game is that our characters have lived very sheltered lives and our perception of ourselves will clash with reality once we leave Gobi. If someone wants to be born outside the village we generally want this to add something to the character, it must carry some kind of meaning, while the character should be just about as sheltered as those who were born in the village.

@Halvtand Ok, we'll say that he learned the technique on the scroll practicing with Hiroshi, only the 2 of them. And about the temp. control, I'll say that it doesn't effect any kind of water except the one produced by his jutsus. Seem fair? Now I can't throw someone in the lake and freeze/boil the sh*t out of them XD(or just freeze/boil their blood...) And the temp. can be controlled by the user at the start of the jutsu and every time he gets into contact with his water/steam/ice he can change it.***If it is a small amount of water(glass size) he can change it's temp from longer ranges(some feet away)*** And needless to say the more water he changes the temp. of the more chakra he uses. he So where does this technique classify? (E/D/C/B etc.)
Edit: I could remove the ice/steam part if it seems too op and make it hellishly hot and ...hellishly cold?(you know, many people view hell with different properties)

House sitting is weird, being in the city is weird, these tight, half-planned roads are weird, suddenly learning about the present Qatar situation is weird, et cetera, et cetera. But I'm now set up with my PC, and more prepared for the next couple weeks. Will work on my sheet presently.

[...]also consider that the training was simply a "build up" to this fight, which is why we se the training as a flashback.


Oh, yeah, I think the fight was definitely the only time to address the training for it. Just wish the fight itself had been more interesting. You do raise a good point about Sasuke recklessly trying to prove himself awesome though. I hadn't considered that, and it does add to the scene.

Also, @The Mad Hatter: not that my opinion is particularly important, but:

With the Fire Snake I can adjust it to where he is trying to learn a new way to use his fire chakra and hasn't developed the jutsu yet. I haven't finished the bio yet but it should be done soon.

@alexfangtalon It isn't my place to say anything but your taijutsu is more like a jutsu since it uses chakra. Taijutsu=no chakra/only physical powers.

I might be off with a few dates and years - the Wiki wasn't much help. Wookiepedia has spoiled me with exact years.

Also, I am terrible at remembering Japanese names for things, as such I rarely - if ever use them.

@MMGiru
Thank you very much for your feedback! Even if you aren't a GM, your opinion matters just as much as Halvtand's does - more actually, since Halvtand is a grumpy, old man.
The issue both Halvtand and myself have with my writing was not the fact that the English was bad, because, well, my English is damn good. It was the fact that the artistic talent put into the writing was very ... limited. The actual writing was bad, even if the language was good. I hope that explains it.
As for the other things... I did/do plan on elaborating on the split in the Hisokana clan, but since my writing sucks, I couldn't do it without it being awful. So I felt somewhat satisfied with just slapping a WIP tag on it and at least posting something.
The nickname was meant to be simply that. I have a nickname that is simply part of my name, because my name is quite long and people found/find it funny to take out part of my name that means something else. Although Sawaru is not exactly long, I found it believable that someone might at some point have realized that the last "part" of her name translates to "evil" when standing alone. I could add something about someone pointing this out to her at school or something, if that makes you happy ;)

@alexfangtalon and @Hillan
Halvtand and I will discuss your characters and we'll get back to you.

Also, just so everyone doesn't think I'm the laziest Co-GM in existence (although I likely am), I have been Skyping with Halvtand this entire time, so I have been helping out with the judging of your characters.

I messaged Halvtand with a question, but other than that I should be able to crank out a sheet later today, since I finally have a day off work
