Chakra Scalpel is a hella advanced jutsu...

Chakra Scalepel requires an incredible amount of concentration, control and precision to use. However, it's use isn't necessarily advanced. If used for strictly medical purposes, it's not really out of place on a Nara Chuunin. However, it'd be utterly useless in combat. Her Nara has no real taijutsu capabilities, no muscle memory, no close range training. Chances are, in close quarters combat, the Nara wouldn't even be able to use Chakra Scalpel, let alone fight with it. The only shinobi seen doing so was Kabuto, and as we know he might as well have been an S-Class ninja.
She's capable of using it offensively if she isn't doing anything else, but she doesn't have the Taijutsu skill to really do anything truly aggressive with it. It'd also mean she couldn't use her Nara clan techniques while using it, limiting her to using the Scalpels themselves. As the technique mentions, she wouldn't have the skill to make lethal cuts, but could use it to potentially to cause some tissue cuts to someone that is in her face.
I believe I am done with her.
GM
Innue said She's capable of using it offensively if she isn't doing anything else, but she doesn't have the Taijutsu skill to really do anything truly aggressive with it.
No, she's not. She's a Chuunin with a dual-specialization. There is no viable way she could use it offensively. Kabuto, at a Jounin-level (at the least) could only cut tendons and muscle with it. She would have basically no applicable use of it. As soon as someone dived in and she would have to dodge, she would lose the level of concentration it would take to keep it going.
Canon states that the chakra scalpel is a technique that some medical-nin can't even use, meaning that it has to be at least A-Rank. Chuunin specializing in Hiden and Medical-ninjutsu, most likely just recently learning Medical-Ninjutsu, is not going to be capable of using it offensively. She could look scary with it, but aside from that, nothing.
The jutsu literally lets you cut people from the inside. >.> It's gotta be watched close. Also, much like Shadow Clone Jutsu and Mystic Palm Jutsu, it's what I call a 'testament" ability. It proves she is capable to a certain degree, and at her age and skill, she shouldn't be.

She's actually more proficient and practiced with her medical techniques than her Hiden ones at this point. She's capable of doing them, but any of her Binds or Imitations have a much shorter longevity to them because she isn't that practiced with them, nor did she have a lot of time to do so during her tenure as a medical shinobi.
I had designed her to be able to use Scalpel offensively in instances when she didn't have to move extensively. She couldn't run at someone with it, but I had imagined if someone charged her, she could move her hands and feet short distances to use it to actually cut someone. She would always lack the control on a moving target to actually cut anything lethal. At most, offensively, I'd imagine she could cause some damage to muscles on an opponent so that utilizing that muscle would cause damage if they continued to use it without getting medical attention (that and hurting a whole hell of a lot). She would lack the ability to precisely cut tendons or anything along that line.
In context to the cannon, she is only two years younger than Kabuto and has a seriously compacted jutsu list to him (even to Sakura, who she would be a senior in age and rank). I'd say she's intelligent enough to have learned the jutsu she has and is proficient enough in most of them to actually make use of techniques Scalpel, even while moving small distances. She didn't spend the time to learn abilities outside of ones for surgery, nor did she learn the Chakra Enhanced Strength. She'd also have a lot more practice with Scalpels than either of them would from having actually been using it extensively for a long time during a conflict.

Longevity of a technique such as shadow binding and stuff like that... is pretty much stupid to debate in a play-by-post RP. Even if it holds a foe for ten seconds or less, that is plenty of time to abuse the piss out of it.
Just Saiyan.

True, it would have to be closely moderated at best and have predetermined limits in combat.

Huh, I just noticed that part of Agini's bio doesn't fit with the history. I have it written that he took and failed the chunin exam on different occasions, but I don't think that's possible. For one, it's only been a year-ish (yes?) since Sai, and also, ranks aren't based off of exams at that point in time. I'm pretty sure I was thinking there was a longer period of time since Sai's defeat, like a decade or so. I'll rewrite his history and post if for reapproval when I can.
Okay, let my rephrase and repost. tomorrow i will flesh out my CS's
and stuff.
just to make this clear.
We get assigned Jounins? what?
we use our jounins and a team of genin and/or chuunin we can teach? cuz that was the question.
then for my Genin, he will get assigned in another team right?
Im confused this way.

Prince. If you could go over the character via the link that is still in our PM Convo and let me know what should be altered, that would speed this along greatly.
As for me, I have been sick as a dog all day long with a stomach bug, so I'm going to try taking a short nap and hope I feel better.
Also, Marrow. Yukihiro is back on the Guild in Yoshua's thing. Should join us. :3

Marrow, our Genins will be assigned a Jounin (Betas Character) who will teach us. That's what Prince meant.
@ lilly: aha, so team teaching will be saved for another moment

Innue, ultimatum: Chakra Scalpel as a minor offensive or Shadow Sewing.
Reasoning: If, as you say, her focus is so greatly on medical ninjutsu, then her Hiden must suffer.

Ok. Tell me if this is alright, Prince:
Name: Taiho Suzuna
Age|Gender: 14 | Male
Alliance: Konohagakure
Rank: Current generation Genin.
Clan: N/A
Kekkei Genkai: Magnet Release [Lightning and Earth]
Traits:
Appearance: Link
History:
Personality: He is a fairly detached sort of guy. Despite his young age, Taiho is completely emotionless. He is not the sort of guy that expresses emotion in the same way as others do. Where one would become frightened or excited he is unperturbed. He is a difficult, if not impossible, boy to stirr and typically is a non-associate to most of anything. He doesn’t align himself to any cause or group unless he believes it is something that he has to do or is responsible for.
He carries himself as a neutral guy. He looks at his allies and his enemies in the same sort of light and to the same standards. He is never biased or prejudice and is able to judge someone without any sort of favoritism. He looks at all individuals as they are, people, no matter their status or rank. He would tell anyone person the same exact thing, no matter who or what they were, should the conditions of his statement be the same. He is fair and doesn’t judge others based on what they have, how capable they are, their capacity or their strength.
Despite having some whims, such as what drove him to become a ninja, he is fairly neutral and unmotivated. He doesn’t do things for pride, pleasure, or to make himself feel better or worse, thus he is a boy without much conviction. He’s somewhat stagnant and would be the individual that does the exact same thing each and everyday simply because that is all that he needs to do. He isn’t driven by curiosity, desire for revenge or thirst for power. He is not drawn to much to the point that it would drive him to any cause or mission, thus he takes information as it is and does what he has to do in order to survive. He doesn’t think about justice or tyranny, nor does he enforce it, however he could commit acts of justice and tyranny, without care or thought, should it mean he would survive. Being unattached and without any major drive means that he is easy to manipulate, due to his lack of care for himself and interest in others, and he could kill a child without remorse or save one with little personal desire, though he’d only be driven so far if it were deemed absolutely necessary. He is a child of necessity, as in he wouldn’t do anything that wasn’t related to his own survival and what he absolutely has no choice in. He is also a child of detachment, as in no matter what choices he makes he looks back at them with disinterest.
One could look at his disinterest and call him emotionless or impassive, but he does truly have emotions. He just doesn’t have the motivation to express them. He doesn’t care for life in such a way that he would be driven to cry when someone dies or to celebrate when someone is cured. He is simply a boy that quietly exists, in nature, but doesn’t really have any real impact. Though, he is hardly emotionless. He is more of a wall, built up to filter seemingly everything non-necessary about the world. He’s been like this almost his entire life.
Combat Style: Weapons Master Technician, Long ranged
Taiho is a Genin with a keen eye and a talent for marksmanship. He favors a simple weapon such as the kunai. Although he is a long ranged specialist and can hit targets of a great distance away, he is also proficient with close quarters armed combat. Taiho is incredibly skilled with throwing weapons and possesses the aim of a ninja of a greater rank than himself. He has focused a great deal of his training on close quarters kunai combat and his throwing skills as to further refine himself as a ninja.
Nature Release: Lightning and Earth
Jutsu List:
Weaponry: 50 Kunai [20 In each hand and 10 in pack]
Miscellaneous: Has an untapped gift for Magnet Release
Name: Taiho Suzuna
Age|Gender: 14 | Male
Alliance: Konohagakure
Rank: Current generation Genin.
Clan: N/A
Kekkei Genkai: Magnet Release [Lightning and Earth]
Traits:
- Spatial Reasoning - Keen skill to geometrically analyze a specific space and make split-second deductions in order to process and predict information. Naturally, the eye can perceive information and naturally makes 10 second deductions on, based on space, direction, movement and sensation what will naturally happen. Taiho has a higher capacity for this completely natural ability and can greatly predict direction, position, and movement. As long as it is not beyond his ability to perceive, he is more capable of deducing an outcome of something moving through a spatial field and projecting where its path will take it. With this unique ability, it is far easier for Taiho to predict the path of a Kunai, even with their fast rate of movement, or to analyze the oncoming strike of an opponent. It is due to making complex, nano-second calculations constantly to produce valid information quicker that his ability to analyze motion is far superior to an ordinary human.
Appearance: Link
History:
The recovery from the war was a heavy toll on Taiho’s entire family. It started first with Taiho’s grandfather, Seriyu Suzuna, whom was a devout warrior for the great Daiymo Sai. He was such a proud man that he even offered up his first born, Seriyaku, to be a willful instrument for Sai and his glorious innovations for the future. Seriyu was a gifted ninja with origins that dated back to the great Sand Village long ago. He held a nature release that was unique to himself and rare upon the battlefield and, with his great power, he killed many all for the glorious and righteous Sai!
It wasn’t a surprised that, in the great battle in Amegakure, that Seriyu, quite aged, was present. He lasted quite a while, however he was actually bested due the collateral destruction of one of Sai’s attacks. It was said that, before the attack, Seriyu conjured up a monstrous, devastating Iron Dragon that tore through the ranks of the enemy and consumed just about every attack that was tossed at it. After that battle he was known by the survivors as the Iron Dragon.
Seriyaku, a man that did not hold such an affinity for ninjutsu, was also there in that battle. However, when the numbers of his allies fell, despite Sai’s strength remaining, he fled for his life. He had a woman and child and he was sure to bring them with him. Seriyaku regretted that action for the entirety of his life. He was one of the men that was unlucky enough to be branded with Sai’s curse mark. Although it gave him strength, it was a permanent mark, which he had no ability to hide, that inevitably caused him trouble every place he went. It wasn’t long before, in hiding, the hunters tracked him down and killed him and his woman in front of the child. They, out of some act of sympathy, spared the child.
Taiho only vaguely remembers his grandfather and the few times he did meet that man they were typically violent and abusive. Seiyu was violent towards his son, Taiho’s mother, and Taiho all the same. His father was not. His father was stern and hardly affectionate, but he never hit Taiho or Taiho’s mother. He did care for them both, even if he was terrible at showing it. Taiho’s mother, whom was constantly busy, hardly had time for the boy too and when the three of them all went on the run there was hardly anytime for rearing the kid at all.
Taiho’s personality, or lack thereof, demonstrated itself early and, as he matured some, he became a boy that was unfettered by most things. When his father or mother had to kill someone that had been tracking them Taiho wouldn’t flinch. He didn’t even cry with both his parents were killed right before his eyes. He was left with nothing and was taken to some foreign land in which he was added to the orphan population. He didn’t associate with anyone there, nor did he think that he was anything like them. He hardly would speak, would always do as he was told, and spent almost all his free time staring out the nearest window. Not many cared for Taiho. Although he was spared, many constantly questioned why. Why was he allowed to live when Sai and his men killed so many? Taiho’s linage wasn’t hidden. Most shun him or disrespect him or outright detest him, however he’d maintained his neutral persona as to not let it bother him, no matter how aggravated his harassers can be. Even those scorned enough to physically attack him aren't’ enough to really incite malice out of the boy. He always picks himself up and just continues on with his day as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
It was recently, when he became of age, that he decided that he would be a ninja. He saw Genin from out his window and realized that they had wages and some independence. They also had a little respect and maybe, just maybe, deep down in himself, to which he was unaware, he yearned for that respect too.
However, he looked at becoming a ninja as some means that he could use in order to stand on his own two legs and he was unafraid of any dangerous associated with the position. It was a stable pay, so long as you didn’t die, and the work wasn’t always strenuous and one could learn a great deal of useful skills in training. He held experience in the area from his upbringing with his father and grandfather. He’d never been taught the techniques by them, and hardly even knew his grandfather enough to say he learned anything about ninjutsu from the man. Being on the run, watching others die, predicting enemy movements and seeing brutal fight after brutal fight was his everyday life as a child.
It was simply going to be a job for him.
As such, he started training. He was favored by one of the academy teachers who helped him with extra lessons. His name was Tataki Shurimi and he claimed up and down that Taiho was a spitting image of Tataki’s dead little brother. As such, he taught Taiho about some ninjutsu beyond the D-Rank techniques, though Taiho still has a long way to go.
Taiho recently graduated from the academy. As a definite Genin he’s prepared to do whatever it is that he is told to do because this is his life now.

- Generic Sealing Technique - Ability to seal a weapon in a specialized tattoo, marking, scroll or upon another weapon. Taiho actually has two tattoos seals of this nature. There's one his right palm and one on his left palm, infused with chakra, that house exactly 20 kunai in them each. These specialized seals are created to act as a dimensional medium to allow the user to summon the kunai in hand for easy, ready use.
Weaponry: 50 Kunai [20 In each hand and 10 in pack]
Miscellaneous: Has an untapped gift for Magnet Release
GM
I look at this character, and want to tell you something that I told Tuuj:
You have designed this character as a Gamist. I can see elements all throughout your CS. This roleplay will focus on Narrative. By placing characteristics that are essentially seeds to develop later, you imply that there is some sort of plan or desired result. It's a mentality, and I don't believe it's a healthy or beneficial one to this setting. Magnet Release is also an Advanced Nature technique, normally meaning it requires the use of either two elements or specialized training to use it. Lastly, the Art of Weapon Reversal Technique is actually fine in terms of balancing, but I don't think its mechanics make any sense in terms of how chakra and jutsu work. There is no functions that would displace an enemy weapon into the users hand.
Overall, I don't believe I'm going to allow a genin with Magnet Release nor the Art of Weapon Reversal.
I will note that the detail and depth you went into are quite nice. I find the sheer amount of placement into my setting highly admirable and would use it as an example to every single person around.
My suggestion is to start him out with an Elemental Release and allow him to develop into Magnet Release over time, but as for just beginning, I find it far too advanced.

I am fine developing the techniques later. Also, the Weapon Reversal was supposed to be a spatial manipulation technique, thus transporting a weapon in hand. Can do with out.
There we go.

Durn said I am fine developing the techniques later. Also, the Weapon Reversal was supposed to be a spatial manipulation technique, thus transporting a weapon in hand. Can do with out.
I had actually reasoned that. However, Time-Space manipulation requires anchors. No one in the canon, for good reason, magically makes shit puff to their hand. Kunai require that special tag to teleport to and other jutsu require a secondary dimension, e.g. the Sharingan, or a seal that is their static reference point. Like I said, the jutsu itself was fine with me, but I don't believe it is effective in terms of actual jutsu mechanics,
He is approved, albeit I do suggest what I mentioned in the PM.
