Will review tomorrow and post as Shizuka as well. For the moment the Exam has begun with my recent post. Please if you haven't finish any incomplete characters and/or post IC if you have not already. You won't want to miss the exam!

@Odin I like your Amegakure leader so far. If there is one thing I'm curious about, it's the statue. You seem to imply that it inspires and weakens the moral of others. Like the weakening of moral is an absolute, and an ability rather than just because it's there.

Because the current mod discussion is if you mean it's physical presence is just scary and can make people lose moral, or if it actually forces a drop in moral.


I imagine it's like a killing intent. Some people can naturally resist it or realize what it is but everyone can feel it? Sorta like that.

I'm trying to understand the principles and usability of Yin-Yang Release.

Could someone help me with a few questions?

For the matter, those:

What can be done?
What can't?
How powerful is it?
Who could use it?
Why/How?

EDIT: Just to make sure, I'm just curious of course. Not planning to use it or anything. Maybe

@Project nobody really knows and it's never explained. Every jutsu essentially contains yin-yang chakra, but very few use purely yin-yang chakra. Genjutsu for example uses yin chakra (because yin is 'the spirit' and thus not tangible) and mokuton (wood release) uses a lot of yang elements because yang represents creation.

Essentially, if you are using chakra to create something that is not tangible, it's yin, if you're using it to create tangible items, it's yang, and if you're creating life or items that possess qualities of life and sentience (like kage bunshin I think) it's yin-yang.

Like all jutsu, it's only as powerful as the user. As I said before, Madara using a C rank fire jutsu is more powerful than a chunin using an S rank fire jutsu for the first time in their life.

Healing jutsu uses a lot of yin-yang elements I believe.

Everyone can use it, very few use PURE yin yang chakra.

Character Sheet

Character Theme - Treachery(Bleach OST)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



"A ninja shouldn't need more than a single kunai."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Full Name
Kaito Chosokabe
Nickname/Alias
Kaito of one blade.
Gender
Male
Age
16
Age Appearance
16
Sexuality
Straight

Village
Hidden Rain Village
Birthplace
Hidden Leaf

Alignment/Affiliation/Organization
To his own ego.
Clan/Bloodline
N/A
Rank
C-B

Chakra Nature
Water
Appearance/Wardrobe
See picture. Kaito is a fan of robes, and although childish, it makes him feel more mysterious and powerful, there is no other real reason for it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Personality
If Ego were a currencty, Kaito would be the richest man on the planet. Everything he does is in some way to satisfy his. He loves to crush other people just to show that there is no one more impressive than he. Should someone be stronger, Saito will only peg it down to experience, and dedicate himself to eventually upstaging them. He literally has a list of people he doesn't like, mostly compressed of those who have in some way not bowed before his glamorous power.

Despite his love of himself, in combat, Kaito only has one thing in mind, winning, and winning quickly. He will use every dirty trick in the book to end a fight with as little effort as possible. While not as flashy, it does add to his win ration, and in the end, isn't that all that matters?

Kaito is easily flattered, and will serve whoever has the most silver tongue. He's hesitant about serving a major village, however. He can't shine when a place is literally filled with KG users.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
History
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Born to the humble parents, Kaito was the first person in his family to become a ninja. It was a difficult road for him. In the classroom, he was always forgotten for some star student whose family had been ninjas for generations. The Uchiha, the Senju, the Nara, the Yamanaka.... the list went on and on. His parents barely could afford to keep Kaito enrolled. Kaito decided then he would not ever waste any weaponry. He began to get a name for only ever using one kunai, and for taking extrodinary good care of it.

Kaito had to work extra hard to catch up to other ninja, but doing so allowed him a view from behind none of them had enjoyed, and more importantly, a view of their weaknesses. He noted how few ninjas were adept at genjutsu, and how often they freaked out when confronted with it, and so Kaito knew he had found his forte.

Kaito's anonymity finally worked for his favor in the chunnin exams, where he was able to carry his team largely because no one expected some no name to be a threat. He made it all the way through that year on his first try.

Kaito, however, was unhappy. Despite his success, no one knew who he was. They might mention him as being talented, but the immediately compared it to clan heirs of the same age group. Heirs that he had defeated, head on, (mostly)fair and square! It was infuriating. On one mission, his world changed. Working along side a few Rain nin, the jonin their praised his skills, and his skills alone. That was enough for Kaito. He immediately went rogue and joined the Hidden Rain.

Its been about a year for Kaito, and his ego has enjoyed the small village immensely, becoming a name mentioned much more often than in the Leaf. Being selected to try and become a jonin, Kaito immediately laughed at the exams taking place in the Leaf, and left without a single concern about his status there.

Special Traits
Talented genjutsu user.
Proficient at Killing Intent
Has a grudge against weapon users.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Equipment/Weapons/Items

Name of Weapon or Item: Kaito's kunai
Description: A single Kunai Kaito has kept since he was a genin. It is in excellent condition for its age, and the edge well kept. Unfortunately, its full of scars being older than any knife should be. At this point, however, it is so treated by Kaito's chakra that it reacts naturally to its flow.

Yin-Yang release is the ability to create anything out of nothing. Izanagi is Yin-Yang release, and allows you to create an entire scenario, a fantasy, out of absolutely nothing. You died, but you rewrite fate to make it so that you never died. Usually Yin-Yang Release has very limited parameters and relates mostly to the Rikkudo Sennin. However a lot of people like to have their own snowflake version.

Yin is the mind creating a shape, but never birthing it into a tangible form. That's why Genjutsu are Yin-Release, they're constructs that never actually interact with the physical world.

Yang enhances physical, but can never be more than something applied to something else. Like increasing the size of an object or limb. With Yin, it can give form to something that doesn't exist in this realm.

That's the best interpretation I can offer. There are varying ways it's used. Such as how the Rikkudo forms of Obito and Madara can suppress the effects of Ninjutsu such as Edo Tensei. Though you could argue that it's the reversed effects of Yin-Yang, where it can de-construct anything.

All in all: Yin-Yang can be seen as 'doing whatever the fuck you want', but often defined in very clear and restricting parameters, which prevents it from being omnipotence. Some people think they are clever by making their char Yin-Yang, but in reality it's just the mother of all open-ended shit.

Edit: Odin is right that chakra uses the principles of Yin-Yang, though I'm speaking of actually manipulating the concept of Yin-Yang (which is called Yin-Yang Release, or Omnyouton). Almost all ninjutsu follow the principle of Yin and Yang mending together to create a specific form, often limited and defined by the nature release. Convoluted, I know.

I have a little character concept that I've been working those past few days. It... involves a dõjutsu and I've been dabbling with yin and yang release as well. I do understand that it's pretty "fishy" to make custom/original dojutsu. I mean, I'm not particularly the most creative writer out there and neither the most knowledgeable on the Naruto field :P

At any rate, that's been pretty helpful. I might as well scratch yin-yang and keep yin and yang. Mixing the two is too godly, whereas the two separate are literally everything.

Exam Phase 1 Teams


As you all may have noticed by now, we're all to establish teams before the beginning of the exam's first phase. The village alignments do not matter. While bonds can be formed ICly, to speed up the process most people have already teamed up either through IC context or what they believe to be the best pairings. They're mostly going to be teams of four, since we can only have six teams. This is subject to change depending on how things go, right now this is to keep track of things.

I will update this list to keep track of the teams, that way we'll know who is available and who isn't. Poke me here or on discord to tell me if there's any change or something is missing.


Team 1:
-Rumia
-Kyoka
-Hime
-Tashiro

Team 2:
-Kurin
-Shizuka
-Kiku
-Jaakuna

Team 3:
-Usagi
-Sakanoob
-Tsukiko
-Kamui

Team 4:
-Hikaru
-Ai
-Ayame
-Renjiru

Team 5:
-Date
-Koibito
-Kyou
-Kyou's GF (can be switched if someone needs a team)

Team 6:
-Bumu
-Kaba
-Chojiro
-Koma
