Naruto: Revival (An AU Naruto RP)

Story Thus Far/Recap

The shinobi lands rejoice! Iwagakure and Konoha come together for the first time in many years, on the 20th anniversary of the last great Shinobi war. Chunnin gathered from both great nations to become jonin, but as they gathered in peace, an old evil returned to the living. Seijuro Nandate, Puppet Master and leader of the organization Yomigaeri plotted behind the scenes. Killed many years ago by legendary village heroes Jaakuna Aka and the now Hokage, Ginsho Omawarisan.

As chunin gathered for the exam, the village was suddenly attacked by a mysterious force. Jaakuna Aka, dead for twenty years, had returned to the land of the living. Joined by known criminals Sano of the deep and Havoc, master of gravity. The three men were led by the reanimated Seijuro, and they attacked the chunin while they were on their exam.
The valiant chunin managed to fight off the deadly shinobi, but they could not stop tragedy. Ginsho Omawarisan was slain in battle with Jaakuna Aka, and the village wept.

At the funeral, the Hokage's aide took center stage. Revealing himself to be Ginsho's twin sibling, Shinko, and the true heir to the Hokage title. While the nation mourned, Shinko sought retribution against the man he believed responsible for the death of his beloved sibling. Placing the blame squarely on the shoulders of the Mizukage, Ocha Kyusu. Ocha was tried at the Kage Summit, and despite Ocha's evidence to the contrary, the accusations piled up. Ocha was taken into custody by the Tsuchikage, leaving the village of the Mist in the hands of his trusted apprentice and bodyguard.

All the while, Yomigaeri continued to plot, well aware of the rising tides that would soon devour the shinobi world in violent war.

This is the world you have arrived in.

@Syn
Quite interested.

[ZeroXposure]

@keksalot Well, why don't you slide over to our ooc and make yourself a CS. You can Pm me what you got, and I'll review it. I'm one of our five mods on the thread. We look forward to seeing you. 😀

I really want into this, but it's a bit daunting to join an RP as far in as this.

[Reflection]

@Shard We recently started a fresh arc, and the information portrayed in that little blurb above is all the current major events. We're easy to work with and can help you get your character to squeeze naturally into the events.

@Shard

We're really not that far in yet. If you need help, feel free to PM me. I'm pretty well aware of the IC, and what to pay attention to - alternatively a GM can help you as well.

So if a new character were to join for act 2, how and where will they fit into the plot? It would be silly to have a new person show up and be like "Oh, yeah. That stuff was crazy. I wasn't here for it because I was having a picnic or whatever on the other side of that mountain" :P

@McFazzer

I have the same question as McFazzer. I might be interested in this since I've wanted to RP in the Naruto universe for a while, but it'd have to be a good fit and make sense for me to be able to join.

@McFazzer@Zapdos

It's honestly really easy. Since not every chunnin qualified to take place in the jonin exams, or just didn't show. It's easy enough to add in a flashback explaining that they where helping evacuate civilians. It'd be easy enough to go "I was at the exam, but I dropped out early." heck, chances are you could always make an ANBU or something.

Generally, hit the mods with any questions you have, and we'll get back to you quickly. We're really easy to work with, and we're always open to new ideas.

[McFazzer]

Thanks for the response, just one more question. What's the power scaling like? I have an old character that is from an RP that died before I feel it had the chance to shine. The character was initially made as a gennin for the RP which isn't a problem since I can just level him up a bit, but he was predominantly meant to be a weapons user. Weapons became incredibly useless as the series went on unless they're ninja equivalents of Excalibur.

Are weapons equally what would be considered a waste of time in this series? It's fine if they are, there's no way what I had in mind back then would effortlessly slide into Revival, it'll just give me an idea of how much reworking I'll have to do :)

[Reflection]

@McFazzer Weapon users are fine. Probably in the late game you'll be weaker, but at the moment a weapon wielder like Tenten would fit in well. One character uses explosive tags jutsu, so they're still pretty viable. And with plenty of weapons littered about, getting a really cool one is 100% likely.

[McFazzer]

@Reflection Tenten was who I had in mind when I created him, I always felt she was such a missed opportunity. Is there someone I could PM the old character so I can get an opinion on how well they'd fit into Revival?

[Reflection]

@McFazzer I am a mod, but Syn, the person who made this post is also capable of giving your character a look over. ZeroXposure is also a mod, but you'll probably get better luck sending the PM to me or Syn. Since we're usually more active.

[Junkojuro]

I'm interested. Will there be a new thread created, or should I post in the current OOC?
