Through the ghoul-guarded gateways of slumber,
Past the wan-mooned abysses of night,
I have lived o'er my lives without number,
I have sounded all things with my sight;
And I struggle and shriek ere the daybreak, being driven to madness with fright

사람이 온다는 건
실은 어마어마한 일이다.
그는
그의 과거와 현재와
그리고
그의 미래와 함께 오기 때문이다.
한 사람의 일생이 오기 때문이다.
부서지기 쉬운
그래서 부서지기도 했을
마음이 오는 것이다―그 갈피를
아마 바람은 더듬어볼 수 있을
마음,
내 마음이 그런 바람을 흉내낸다면
필경 환대가 될 것이다.

Yeah I feel that, I think that's my main worry. Limitations in terms or canon or custom? It might be case to case depending on what ideas people have for jutsu and the strength behind them.
Lmao yeah I was looking around and I couldn't find much of any. Either that or they been dead.
@Odin

Yeah sure I don't mind.
The CS and Clan sheet will be going up either tonight or tomorrow so fret not. There will also be a discord link for the RP, I'm not sure whether people here use that or not but if you have one please let me know.

Chapter I: Graduation
‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗



Pain. Suffering. Death. Three words that all spelled the same thing in the mind of a shinobi. Such poignant words were freshly crusted on the heels of the ninja that lined the streets of the mist. And yet there was no semblance of change being orchestrated by its people. Instead mutiny was met with controlled excision like ripping a parasite from the body of the host. Each day was a step closer to solidifying the nature of the blood mist, a tyrannical rule with a death grip on yesterday.

Monitoring the village from the window of his mansion, the Mizukage kept a watchful eye on everyone who came and passed. Mist swirling and suffocating anyone who dared fight it, but a comfort to those that stayed in line. The ritual rite of passage to ascend to the rank of genin was at the door once more, soon enough academy ninja would all gather round to test their might in order to prove their worth in the upcoming wars. The cogs of time kept turning, never-ending, however this time was different or at least it would be. Moving from the window the Mizukage moved to the middle of the room, pulling a nearby table to the center of the room before adjusting two seats on either end.

Worn hands prodded and pulled a large board out of the recesses of a drawer, revealing rows of rectangles etched on top. A knock at the door was heard.

“Come in” a raspy withered voice rang out.

“I’m sorry to bother you Sir, but I’m here to discuss the upcoming ceremony and what we discussed prior” a voice responded. Out from behind the door was the Headmaster of the mist’s academy bowing respectfully in the direction of the Mizukage.

Not seeming to have noticed or perhaps purposefully ignoring his presence he pressed on setting up the table. From a bag he retrieved piece after piece of what appeared to be shogi tiles, filling each row and columns with the appropriate rank and file.

“Yes, come in and have a seat, we have much to discuss and what better way than over a game of Shogi”

“Ah..yes...of course Sir” he said hesitantly before taking his seat.

After taking his own place at the table the board had been completely filled save for three vacant spots.

“As you know this year, I’m looking to do the graduation ceremony a little differently. I don’t expect you to understand or agree with what I envision, but those matters and explanations are not of your concern” reaching into the bag he slammed the first of the final three pieces on the board, the Gyokushō otherwise known as the Jeweled General signaling the highest caste. “First I’m going to need you to gather all the Gyokushō followed by the Ginshō” he uttered whilst placing the second to last piece on the board. The last piece was very clearly worn and brittle, almost on the verge of breaking, “And finally, the Fuhyō, those husks of men" savoring his word before pressing onward. "All in one place and all in one ceremony. This year will be the first year where the students fight to the death in order to graduate” his words striking fast while the last piece shattered upon being placed on the board sending shivers up the headmaster’s skin.

“Of course, lord Mizukage, whatever you wish” his voice cracked with a mix of fear and hesitation at the sudden revelation.

A sigh left the lungs of the old man, the disappointment in breaking his last piece was insurmountable. “Well I guess there will be no time for a game today. Now go, start preparations. Gather all the students and notify the Jonin. I want them to watch and see who they want on their team" a hand gesturing him out in a rush. "Oh and one more thing, make sure you split the survivors up evenly. We don't want things to be too uniform” he said with a slight grin forming for just an instance.

The Headmaster nodded and bowed before vanishing from the estate. One by one he appeared in the homes or ghettos of each prospective genin informing them of their slight alteration and surprise announcement that would follow the congregation of ninja on the day of. They would all meet in the same classroom and be the first time meeting the opposite caste ninja. As for the Jonin they were to arrive after the commencement had begun and had a special viewing room on reserve. The bloody mist would soon live up to its name. The only question that remained was who would draw first blood.


SHEET ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗


⌈GUIDELINES AND REQUIREMENTS⌋

» Ranked student/genin.
» Current Resident of Kirigakure and has lived there for quite a few years now.
» Member of one of three castes.
» Aged 12-13.
» No jack of all trades.
» Fleshed out backstory to correlate with caste.
» Proficiency in being a genin ranked ninja.
» Creating an interesting dynamic between teammates/squad leader from caste system.


⌈HELP⌋

This sheet is a bit complicated, so if you need help please just ask me :). I can either help you understand or fix it if you have accidentally broken it. Please follow the sheet, though, as I worked really hard on it. For the most part, all you need to do is find and replace explanatory text.


⌈COLOR⌋

The red color ([color=bb0a1e]) is just a place holder for any color code you would like your ninja to have. Everywhere you see [color=bb0a1e], replace it with a color of your choosing. Other than those red codes, please leave the colors alone.


⌈HEADER⌋

The preview of the header will look bad until the kanji on both sides is filled in! On the left, you should place the "nindo" of your character written in kanji in descending order as to how kanji is actually written. Don't worry about the translation of it yet, that will come later in the sheet. On the right, in place of the words put the kanji for your character's name. The surname will go before the name. Each kanji will be placed on its own line - all you need to do is place the first one, hit enter, then the next kanji until its finished. To add a space between the kanji, please place [color=2e2c2c]-[/color] on its own line. Use the biggest picture you can, the sheet will size it down but it cannot size it up, which may cause the kanji to be off-center. In which case, I can still fix it if you tell me.


⌈ARSENAL⌋

This will probably be the most complicated part of the sheet. Where it says "jutsu 1/weapon 1, jutsu 2/weapon 2, jutsu 3/weapon 3" all you need to do is place the jutsu's or weapon's name. Then on the other side, write down the short description of what it is, use, and weakness. It doesn't have to be overly complicated. The complicated part is that the left doesn't automatically match up with the right; so for every additional line in the description, you will have to add a blank line after the name. On the filler lines, please place [color=2e2c2c]-[/color] just to keep it orderly.
⌈EXAMPLE⌋

▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Kage Bunshin no Jutsu is a Jonin level Ninjutsu technique. When Naruto stole the scroll of seals, he learned this technique as well. The normal Bunshin no Jutsu creates a copy of the ninja that lacks any substance. The Kage Bunshin distributes the ninja's chakra evenly among the clones and creates a real copy with form and substance. The clone itself can also utilize any Jutsu the original ninja knows. When the clone finally disperses, any new knowledge it has gained is passed back to the original ninja and any additional clones. This makes Kage Bunshin an excellent training method if the ninja has the chakra capacity and stamina to maintain the Kage Bunshins for an extended period of time.


As depicted above, there's a [color=2e2c2c]-[/color] on the left for every line after the first on the right.

For the number of jutsu and weapons, you can add more than the three slots, I only started with three as an example. As you will play genin, you probably won't have most of the higher ranked tables filled up. Instead of leaving it as it is, once more replace empty slots with [color=2e2c2c]-[/color]. Canon jutsu will be added just as a custom jutsu would be, with explanation and all, but you may copy it from a wiki. This is so people will not have to keep looking up the entry in the wiki and to keep it nice and orderly. The weapons section is only for special weapons outside of kunai and shuriken.

As a general rule, please use the Japanese version of everything.




CLAN SHEET ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗


⌈NOTICES⌋

This sheet is entirely optional and you do not have to do it if you do not want to. This is used for worldbuilding, but some of the parts do not come into the roleplay unless in passing. So if you want to put down useful things like clan members and kekkei genkai, but don't want to fill out the rest, then you do not have to.

Also, you will not be posting the clan sheet with your character in the character tab. Once it is finished, we will take the sheet and post it in an organized tab.


⌈HELP⌋

This sheet is even more complicated than the character sheet. Once again, if you need help, do not hesitate to ask me or any of my co-GMs. The entire sheet will look absolutely terrible until it is filled in, and even then there will need to be certain adjustments. If you are not comfortable making those adjustments, please just send it in. I would rather have to do it than fix it.


⌈COLOR⌋

The red color ([color=bb0a1e]) is just a place holder for the color you would like to associate with your clan. This color does not necessarily need to match your character's. Everywhere you see [color=bb0a1e], replace it with a color of your choosing. Other than those red codes, please leave the colors alone.


⌈HEADER⌋

The first image code will be the symbol of your clan. It should be at least 180x180 and transparent. If you cannot find something transparent, send what you want to me and I can make it transparent. Nothing else will need to be touched until you get to a place that asks for the clan motto. Fill in the clan motto, then underneath it fill in the clan name. Leave the ichizoku in, though. If there was to be a clan called Example, then it would say: "EXAMPLE ICHIZOKU"


⌈VAGUE QUESTIONS⌋

There are a couple of vague questions that you might not understand. Here are quick explanations, and if you have more to ask just ping me.

MOTIF - Motif stands for any conceptual themes you have for your clan, as that is very common in anime, but especially in Naruto. Themes can include colors, animals, food, or even more abstract things.

MON - Mon is the symbol of your clan. The question is just asking what the mon depicts, and the symbolization there.

DISTINCTION - Common physical appearances found in the clan. The Uchihas have dark hair, dark eyes, and pale skin. The Uzumakis have famous red hair, the Nara have brown hair and lazy eyes, etc etc.

PRESTIGE - The temperament of the clan, common personality traits shared. The Uzumakis have all been loud and determined, Uchihas somber and easily irritated, the Nara shrewd and lazy.

GENETICS - This will be traits often passed down in the clans that give their members a bit of an edge. Maybe they have a lot of sensors, or large chakra reserves, maybe very precise chakra control.


⌈FAMILY MEMBERS⌋

Add as many family members as you want, or give none. Here is a general template to follow based on what's already in the sheet:

[b][color=black]POSITION IN CLAN[/color][/b]
[color=gray]name [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] [color=gray]age[/color][color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] [color=gray]current age[/color]
[color=bb0a1e]»[/color] on one line, write down their reputation/prestige [color=bb0a1e]«[/color]
[color=gray]mother [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] father [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] sibling 1 [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] sibling 2[/color]
[color=gray]any [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] kids [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] go [color=bb0a1e]∘[/color] here[/color][/color][/center]


Position in clan can be in relevance to a character (such as: EXAMPLO'S COUSIN), a position of power (such as: EXAMPLE COUNCIL MEMBER), or any important descriptor.

INTRODUCTION ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

Greetings and welcome to another Naruto roleplay. Like most Naruto roleplays this one will be AU with most of the elements of canon intact, save for major names and shinobi that would otherwise ruin the immersion of the story. With that said, I haven’t seen many active Naruto RP’s here on the site, so I hope to change that and usher in a new era of Japanese weebery.

In this specific RP we will be heavily focusing on one village, Kirigakure no Sato or in this timeline better known as Chigiri no Sato. The majority of the RP will start and take place within the walls of the bloody mist and focus on each unique aspect of the village at its height. In this I mean we will be experiencing the nuances and difference in each caste system, the implementation of the battle royal-esque graduation exam before Zabuza solo’d it, and the grim and dark politics that arose from the totalitarian style government that ruled the village at that time.

Speaking of dark and grim, the conjecture of coming into this RP is to expect that it will follow that of the anime and manga. Yes, there will be light hearted moments, but we won’t be strangers to what make ninja’s ninja. Death, sacrifice, and just about everything in between will be integral to making a both cohesive and immersive experience for this RP.

On that note, as stated before, this RP will take place in the time period between the Second and Third shinobi world war. You will be playing a genin under the delegation of one of three Jonin; both you and your squad-mates and jonin will be from varying castes, allowing an extra element to factor in with organic conversation. Your genin will be one of many vying for the chance to graduate the academy in the battle royal and become a ninja. I’m looking for a small cast of 6-9 very committed players in order to facilitate a memorable experience in hopes of longevity and significance.

If interested please continue reading and feel free to toss your hat into the ring, name into the ballot, etc etc.

SETTING ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

The cycle of life is rather simple for shinobi. You live, then fight, and shortly thereafter meet an unbecoming death. This cycle of life and death has been on a never-ending loop fated to continue like an uroboros. Kirigakure, founded after the warring states period, saw to ensure relations with other great nations. Especially in villages such as Konoha, gaining an invaluable resource in the three tailed beast and diplomatic relations. However, the goodwill they had found so easily was the antithesis of those with nations such as Iwagakure. And so, victim to the vicious cycle both the second Mizukage and Tsuchikage had met their fated ends in battle, but a glorious one filled with honor? That much is left to be said.

With the third Mizukage being appointed the Mist Village would find itself in a schism creating a caste system that relied on three tiers that separated the nation unequally. This inequity fostered tension in the village and began to plant fear and doubt within the villagers. This civil unrest reached the ears of the Mizukage who ruled the nation with an iron fist. The tyrant would not allow any talks of treason or civil dissonance under his corrupt rule. In order to quell any idea to take form, the third ushered in a new system, one that implemented one crucial rule to potential graduates aspiring to leave the academy, death. Each genin would have to fight to the death to graduate, including those of the first and second caste and not just the third.

This harrowing process cut down on numbers, numbers that could overrun the third and his posse. It also demonstrated that the caste system was not above the Mizukage, thus reinforcing the idea of not biting the hand that feeds. The rest of the Shinobi world gained wind of the nefarious politics in the mist and was branded the Village Hidden in the Bloody Mist, quite fitting for the notoriety it was gaining. There was one pro if any, cultivation of only the strongest bloodlines and ninja led to powerful armies one in which was devoutly loyal to its leader or at least that’s what the Mizukage was led to believe.

The Bloody Mist is at its height and the Mizukage has taken a staunch stance in terms of isolationism and neutrality outside of the requirements for the second and third caste. Tensions amongst the other nations are at an all time high, pressing and leading to the potential of a Third Shinobi World War. The cycle once again starting and ending, war and death forming an ouroboros once more.
‗‗‗
During the birth and natural life of Kirigakure, society was split into a caste system* which consisted of three major factions.




ATTRIBUTES ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

In terms of combat ability, the Gyokushō were gifted with unique attributes. With their high rank they were naturally born with an affinity for chakra control, meaning they were able to regulate and expend chakra with ease as opposed to most. In addition to better chakra control the Gyokushō also had access to higher-ranked jutsu from birth to well into their years as Jonin.

-
Gyokushō 玉將 (Jeweled General) – Were known as the first caste and ranked as the highest amongst the three. The jeweled general only consisted of the highest nobility and had access to some of the purest and rarest jutsu and Kekkei Genkai to exist within that of Kirigakure. In order to be considered a member of Gyokusho, one had to be able to prove domestic birth and lineage that had originally stemmed from within Kirigakure. Being associated and part of the first caste had brought some liberties with it besides the name.
HOUSING ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
Gyokushō were housed in the grandest of estates that Kirigakure had to offer, second only to the Mizukage and his entourage. The housing consisted of estates that were elevated higher than the rest, thus allowing them to look down on the rest of the caste system that were not first. Each estate was garnished with beautiful and serene vegetation lining the tops and sides of their buildings, which were usually kept in pristine conditions by non-caste help.
WEIGHT ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
With their social standing, Gyokushō were allowed to roam around Kirigakure whenever and wherever within reason. There was no curfew or segregation they faced, rather they had access to almost everything.

-
Ginshō 銀将 (Silver General) – Were known as the second caste in the system and ranked as the intermediate class between the three. The Ginshō were mostly comprised of members and families that were associated and allied with Kirigakure from the Warring Periods to the Second Shinobi World War and any subsequent battles after. While not as prestigious or noble as the first caste, they were not depicted as poorly as the lowest. Enough good standing and merit allowed for the potential of being promoted to the first caste in special cases.
HOUSING ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
Ginshō lived in similar estates as the Gyokushō, the only difference being they were one to two story houses that resided on the floor of Kirigakure. Buildings either had no greenery or had very little to denote their wealth. Mostly everything was maintained within the families. Appliances and décor was not as expensive or easily replaceable as their higher counterparts, but were great nonetheless.
WEIGHT ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
As the middleman, Ginshō never faced any kind of discrimination or alienation. They were often allowed to attend events that were otherwise strictly for Gyokushō. While their access to buildings and areas isn’t as extensive as Gyokushō, Ginshō find themselves happy with their intermediate medium.
ATTRIBUTES ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

Despite being smaller in house and name, these foreigners had brought their own prowess to aid in the development of Kirigakure. The Ginshō offered and brought two things. The first was a knack for endurance, these families and members were able to tank and absorb damage that would otherwise knock out or incapacitate other ninja. Secondly, Ginshō were given the ability of specialization i.e. had deep knowledge and practice in a chosen field (medical, gen, nin, tai) usually what a family prided themselves on like a school/style.

-

ATTRIBUTES ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

Being basically prisoners of war, Fuhyō were the caste that had nothing to lose and the most to gain. Most often the group was comprised of mercenaries, missing nin, and otherwise criminals. These families that were most desperate allowed them for a few abilities. Fuhyō had battle prowess that was unmatched by any of the other two castes, having been constantly fighting from birth to now they have accumulated experience some ninja won’t live or experience in a single lifetime. Fuhyō also have heightened senses and affinity for stealth since it was what they relied on to survive.
Fuhyō 歩兵 (Pawn) – The last of the three castes and the one held in most contempt. The Fuhyō were the undesirables, the caste that no one wanted to associate with or have any standing with. They were constantly looked down on, spoke down to, and considered to be nothing more than trash given a kindness by living in Kiri and not having been executed like a dog in the streets. This caste consisted of members of families who were defeated on the same battlefields where the Ginshō were initatied in. Having been annexed into Kiri left them with almost as much as if they had been missing nin.
HOUSING ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
Fuhyō basically lived in squalor, the lowest of lows, often neighbors to rats and stray cats that hunted them. The compounds in which they lived were further out from the center of the village than the other two castes. They were akin to that of ghettos in which most of the houses were shared by multiple families and non-families. The ghettos were dilapidated and worn with no greenery in site but instead dirt. This isolation from the other two wasn’t that bad whenever the Fuhyō had cause to celebrate, allowing them to party in the streets extravagantly. As expected, the appliances were second rate if any at all and most families had to improvise.
WEIGHT ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
Fuhyō pretty much had none and faced the most segregation. They were not allowed to eat, attend, or had access to a number of facilities within Kirigakure. Instead the Fuhyō were handled and approached with extreme caution and forced to complete the most perilous and dangerous missions for the village without much regard for their life. While it was a good strategy to keep them busy from revolting, it still planted the seed within.

ORGANIZATIONS ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗
追い忍部隊
OININ BUTAI: Hunter-nin Corps
---(死体処理班, Shitai Shori Han)
Also known as the 𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗣𝗦𝗘 𝗣𝗥𝗢𝗖𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗘𝗔𝗠 is a special team within Kirigakure's Anbu, consisting of hunter-nin (oinin, 追い忍), which are given the specific duty of hunting down missing-nin. They completely erase the person they're searching for by means of their superior assassination techniques and medical skills.

暗部
ANBU: The Anbu Black Ops
(暗殺戦術特殊部隊, Special Assassination and Tactical Squad)
Short for 𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗔𝗧𝗦𝗨 𝗦𝗘𝗡𝗝𝗨𝗧𝗦𝗨 𝗧𝗢𝗞𝗨𝗦𝗛𝗨 𝗕𝗨𝗧𝗔𝗜, the Anbu are covert operatives of capable ninja that are dispatched by their village leader. There are apparently no true ranks within the Anbu; team leadership and hierarchy seem to be based on merit and experience. The leaders of the teams are called squad leaders (Buntaichō, 分隊長), a position held in high regard.

霧の忍刀七人衆
KIRI NO SHINOBIGATANA SHICHININ SHŪ: The Seven Swordsmen of the Mist
An organisation consisting of only the greatest blade-wielding shinobi of their generation that Kirigakure can produce. There can only be seven members at a time — hence the name. The swords of the Seven Swordsmen are passed down from generation to generation since the First Mizukage's era, and are considered mystical. Together, the Seven Swordsmen are capable of bringing down an entire nation, and are regarded as being the strongest shinobi in the village behind the Mizukage.


RULES ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

» This is a Naruto RP so that means there will be fighting (PVP). Now that also means people are going to die. Yes, your character may, in fact, bite the bullet; but that doesn’t mean you’re out of the game forever.

» While some of you may not like fighting or simply don’t believe you have the skills. Fights will be under heavy judging and scrutiny. There will be no power playing, godmodding, or autohits of any kind.

» Collaborative posts will be banned unless with permission from the GMs. This is so that posts don’t overextend, move smoothly, and give the players adequate space to flesh out their character.

» Unlike the hidden villages, this isn’t a democracy. GMs word is law, but that doesn’t mean we’re unable to be negotiated with. Any and all forms of toxicity or incivility will be dealt with accordingly. Please don’t argue, we’ll do our best to meet your needs.

» This is a mature RP, that means themes like murder, child soldiers, and more will be introduced. Anything that breaks the Guild’s guidelines must be taken to PM otherwise keep the beheadings to a minimum.

» This is a semi-sandbox RP. There will be major plot events that happen which will restrict characters’ ability to roam around and do what they want, but there will also be downtime in which you are given free reign.

» Writing Competency & Deadlines. I’m not a stickler for the occasional grammar mistake or short post, but do please try to keep the standard that’s set by myself and others. Also I would like a minimum of a post per week. We all live busy lives some more than others and if an extension is needed please contact the GM team. Otherwise deadlines will be enforced.

» Character sheets are to be posted and reviewed in the OOC. Once a character is cleared only then may you move it to the characters tab and begin posting in the IC.

» Jutsu & Bijuu. While no one will start off particularly strong, do note that we have banned a few of the more rather potent jutsu. Please see list below and do not try to negotiate listed jutsu for character reasons. Jinchuriki and the majority (not all) of Bijuu will not serve a purpose in this RP as they are difficult to balance and most often take away from everything else.

» Art: Please stay away from loli/badly drawn/naruto reskinned art! If you need help finding art, the GMs will be glad to help.

» Please try to keep the authenticity of Japanese used in naming jutsu/canon jutsu/KG/names etc.

» MOST IMPORTANTLY: just have fun, get to know your peers, and engage in a fun and enjoyable RP.


BANNED JUTSU ‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗‗

» Anything above a Two Tomoe Sharingan will need to be unlocked through the IC with exception to the Eternal Mangekyou. In addition, if one is able to possess the MS heavy modifications will need to be done to the attributes abilities (i. e. Susano’o, Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi)
» Lightning Release Armor
» Impure World Resurrection
» Dust Release
» Flying Thunder God

In this specific RP we will be heavily focusing on one village, Kirigakure no Sato or in this timeline better known as Chigiri no Sato. The majority of the RP will start and take place within the walls of the bloody mist and focus on each unique aspect of the village at its height. In this I mean we will be experiencing the nuances and difference in each caste system, the implementation of the battle royal-esque graduation exam before Zabuza solo’d it, and the grim and dark politics that arose from the totalitarian style government that ruled the village at that time.

Speaking of dark and grim, the conjecture of coming into this RP is to expect that it will follow that of the anime and manga. Yes, there will be light hearted moments, but we won’t be strangers to what make ninja’s ninja. Death, sacrifice, and just about everything in between will be integral to making a both cohesive and immersive experience for this RP.

On that note, as stated before, this RP will take place in the time period between the Second and Third shinobi world war. You will be playing a genin under the delegation of one of three Jonin; both you and your squad-mates and jonin will be from varying castes, allowing an extra element to factor in with organic conversation. Your genin will be one of many vying for the chance to graduate the academy in the battle royal and become a ninja. I’m looking for a small cast of 6-9 very committed players in order to facilitate a memorable experience in hopes of longevity and significance.

If interested please continue reading and feel free to toss your hat into the ring, name into the ballot, etc etc.

The cycle of life is rather simple for shinobi. You live, then fight, and shortly thereafter meet an unbecoming death. This cycle of life and death has been on a never-ending loop fated to continue like an uroboros. Kirigakure, founded after the warring states period, saw to ensure relations with other great nations. Especially in villages such as Konoha, gaining an invaluable resource in the three tailed beast and diplomatic relations. However, the goodwill they had found so easily was the antithesis of those with nations such as Iwagakure. And so, victim to the vicious cycle both the second Mizukage and Tsuchikage had met their fated ends in battle, but a glorious one filled with honor? That much is left to be said.

With the third Mizukage being appointed the Mist Village would find itself in a schism creating a caste system that relied on three tiers that separated the nation unequally. This inequity fostered tension in the village and began to plant fear and doubt within the villagers. This civil unrest reached the ears of the Mizukage who ruled the nation with an iron fist. The tyrant would not allow any talks of treason or civil dissonance under his corrupt rule. In order to quell any idea to take form, the third ushered in a new system, one that implemented one crucial rule to potential graduates aspiring to leave the academy, death. Each genin would have to fight to the death to graduate, including those of the first and second caste and not just the third.

This harrowing process cut down on numbers, numbers that could overrun the third and his posse. It also demonstrated that the caste system was not above the Mizukage, thus reinforcing the idea of not biting the hand that feeds. The rest of the Shinobi world gained wind of the nefarious politics in the mist and was branded the Village Hidden in the Bloody Mist, quite fitting for the notoriety it was gaining. There was one pro if any, cultivation of only the strongest bloodlines and ninja led to powerful armies one in which was devoutly loyal to its leader or at least that’s what the Mizukage was led to believe.

The Bloody Mist is at its height and the Mizukage has taken a staunch stance in terms of isolationism and neutrality outside of the requirements for the second and third caste. Tensions amongst the other nations are at an all time high, pressing and leading to the potential of a Third Shinobi World War. The cycle once again starting and ending, war and death forming an ouroboros once more.
