They say alot of Shinobi events were recorded and put in stories, like when Konohagakure and Sunagakure did not see eye to eye, and fought a deadly war, or when the foreigners came with change over the major countries; Iwagakure, Kumogakure, Kirigakure, Sunagakure and Konohagakure respectively paid a heavy toll each. However not many know the origin of snow, compared to the events that have taken place in the mainland, this village is a mere snowflake.
Being ruled by a Daimyo who had both the power and the money to centralize his country, the country would have turned to a dictatorship, however 3 clans challenged the lords gigantic army with attitudes of warriors and hearts of beasts. They lead their combined army through the snow. Many lives were lost and many tears shed, however in the end they had the warlord on his knees and ready for his fate. After the death of the warlord the Land of snow was divided into 3 parts, and things would grow slightly better until another problem arose. The leaders were prideful and stubborn, and never would they join forces in a lifetime. The splitting of the Snow country drove people into confusion, not to mention that the firepower of the clans were divided oddly.
One clan, the Himura clan, that originated from the Hot Spring Country acted first.The clan had a numerical advantage, however it the main hold was in the centre proving to be quite a hazard if any of their fronts broke. However the advantage of surprise was on their side and they managed to get the drop on one entire clan before anyone even knew what was happening. The other clan followed suit in a civil war that took longer than it should have. It was after the civil war things became peaceful, as the one surviving clan now ruled this small, small country. Due to this, the Himura became the face of Yukigakure, the famed clan that everyone thought of when the name Yukigakure was dropped, though there were many other clans that came to aid in the construction to a much more mighty Snow country.
Slowly over the years it became mightier and more powerful, and in it's current state has cast it's eyes on the horizon, looking to expand and conquer. With the new graduates coming in and the village being comfortable for once they hope to see a massive leap in succesions.
As is common knowledge, here are the ranks ranked from low to high:
A) Genin
A fresh academy graduate and the main force of any village. These shinobi are from all kinds of ranges - from prodigies to low-life, barely-graduated shinobi.
They have access to 3 D ranked techniques and 2 C ranked techniques at the start, however they will progress fast.
B) Chunnin
Only the best genin will be able to surpass the genin stage to this level, having to go through a series of trials known as the Chunnin Exams. These exams are no joke, as they are a way for Yukigakure to show it's power to the outside world.
They have access to 5 D ranked techniqued and 4 C ranks defaultly.
C) Jonin
Experienced Chunnin get promoted to Jonin status, giving them the authority to lead a team of their own if they wish. These are generally the captains of a four-man cell including them, however exceptions can be made. They are generally quite powerful, and act like an elite force in the Shinobi army of the village that are not Special Ops.
As Jonin you get 7 C rank techniques along with 3 B rank techniques and unlimited D rank techniques.
D) Special Ops
The Special Ops situation in Yukigakure is quite a strange one compared to the other villages, as in they don't have an official ANBU set up. Instead, they use six legendary Shinobi that showed extreme prowess in the civil war. These are comparable with the legends of old, such as the Sannin of Konohagakure. Currently the positions are not open for anyone, and there is no known way to be promoted into their ranks other than showing extreme prowess in battle, and outside of battle.
Default techniques are not important for these, as these positions can only be gained through IC development.
1. Use your manners.
We don't want to see an argument every day in our OOC. Discussions are good, but fighting about stuff isn't. Just be polite to others.
2. If you wanna be critical, be constructive.
[i]Nobody learns from ''That post was shit!'' and everyone learns from ''I think that post wasn't good because ____''. Be nice. Be constructive.
3. Please make a Genin before requesting any other characters.
[i]Keep in mind that, if for example, for every 1 Genin there was 1 Jonin, there would be 75% too much Jonin to lead teams.
3.1. No rogue Shinobi, unless we explicitly request you to make one.
If we need a rogue Shinobi for plot reasons, we will ask a person to make one. This is to stop people from just playing this like a sandbox Naruto roleplay where they can get 200 secret techniques and murder everyone.
4. Use common sense and make your character as strong as a character of his level would be.
Nothing to add here, this should make sense to you.
5.Naruto is all about fighting. That is why we like it, because of the story-aspects mixed with the awesome combat that is possible. This is NOT a deathmatch however.
If you want to fight another player, ask them first. Nobody likes getting their characters slaughtered because they weren't prepared, or don't like the fighting aspect. If you really want to kill someone and they probably won't say yes, but you can prove it would benefit the story or roleplay you can discuss with the GM's.
6. Being in Yukigakure, it wouldn't make sense if every other character had a Sharingan. A few would be possible, but don't overdo it.
We reserve the right to deny a character with a Sharingan if we feel that A) the reason he has it makes no sense (for non-Uchiha) or B) there is too many Sharingans already.
7. Have fun.
No really. If you're not having fun in this RP it's time to ask yourself if you really want to be here. Please ask a GM to help if you feel like something is wrong.
