Basic stuff. Keep out of character talk, or OOC, in (( )) or something to that effect.
Rules
1.) No godmoding please, it's really annoying and doesn't show your creativety very well.
2.) I would like everyone to be as active as possible, though that doesn't mean it has to be rp all the time, but just being here in the thread to show me you're here is a good way to get on my good side. ^^ *hinthint*
3.) Cybering is a big no-no people. *waves finger in a tsktsk fashion*
4.) Do not kill off other people's ninjas! TT__TT This makes the Ropin sad cuz she worked so haaaard everyone's. (That and because this is a shop and they can't die anyway. Xd)
Rp Terms
Chakra: Chakra is the resulting energy produced, when Physical and Spiritual energies become mixed together. Hand Seals are then used to harness this energy and expel it out of the body; Usually in the form of some kind of attack.
Genjutsu: This type of Jutsu is mostly illusionary, causing the target to see things in a dream-like state, or possibly confuse them. While this is happening it can allow the user to attack or possibly escape depending on the situation.
Ninjutsu: This type of Jutsu is most commonly used, and most of the time needs handseals to correctly concentrate the chakra into the right place and right time. It can be used in many ways.
Taijutsu: This Jutsu is better summed up as hand-hand to combat, the fundimentals of any fighter, but not necesarily everyone's strong point.
Missions: These are tasks that all/most ninja must deal with. There are different levels (basic errands: walking a dog, shopping ---& assination and protection) of missions that are suited for different ranks. The lower ranks will obviously get the easy tasks.
Special Jounin: Here be the teachers of the genin. In better times the genin were split off into groups of three called squads, each had it's own sensei (special jounin). But now that times are bad, most of the higher level ninja have been sent off to fight.
Basic Jutsu ((Info. credit to
here. ))
Transformation Technique
Name: Henge no Jutsu, literally "Transformation Technique"
Users: All Ninja Academy graduates
This jutsu allows the user to assume the appearance of another person, animal, or object. This is one of the basic jutsu taught at the Konoha Ninja Academy. Fundamentally, all ninja know this jutsu.
Projectile Weapons
Name: Tobidōgu, literally "Projectile Weapons"
Users: Most ninja
In order to store and use items or weapons that the user would never be capable of carrying normally, the user can keep them contained within summoning scrolls. Puppets commonly have such scrolls attached to hidden compartments to produce extra arms and other similar features. Like the Summoning Technique, a small donation of blood is required to summon the items.
Exploding Tag: Activate
Name: Jibaku Fuda: Kassei, literally "Exploding Tag: Activate"
Users: All Ninja Academy graduates
Utilizing chakra, the user is able to activate the explosion mechanism of a distant bomb tag. The exploding tags that the Third Hokage used were different than the usual bomb tags, being yellow in color instead of white with a red border.
Cloak of Invisibility Technique
Name: Kakuremino no Jutsu, literally "Cloak of Invisibility Technique"
Users: All Ninja Academy graduates
This jutsu allows a ninja to take a cloak or a piece of cloth and blend into an object, making them invisible. Konohamaru uses this technique constantly in the beginning of the Naruto series to try and fool Naruto Uzumaki, but uses poor disguises (square rocks with eyeholes, cloaks that are incorrectly patterned or the wrong way round, or simply not covering himself completely), thus betraying the illusion. In the anime, Naruto has been somewhat practical at using this jutsu a couple of times.
Clone Technique
Name: Bunshin no Jutsu, literally "Ghost Clone Technique"
Users: All Ninja Academy graduates
This technique creates intangible clones of the user. The clones are simply illusions and will dissipate when they come into contact with something. The illusions can be seen through by the Byakugan and the Sharingan. A person with normal eyes can also distinguish the clones from the original, since the clones will not disrupt the area around themselves with their movement (won't kick up dust, crush grass, etc.).
Body Replacement Technique
Name: Kawarimi no Jutsu, literally "Body Replacement Technique"
Users: All Ninja Academy graduates
This jutsu lets the user quickly switch places with another nearby object, such as a plant (normally a section of a log), an animal, or even another person within reach, leaving the opponent open to a counter-attack. Explosive tags can be attached to the replacement for an added surprise, which Sasuke has done twice in the anime. Fundamentally, all ninja know this technique. Being a rudimentary technique, it does not appear to require any handseals.
Body Flicker Technique
Name: Shunshin no Jutsu, literally "Body Flicker Technique"
Users: Most, if not all ninja above Genin level
This jutsu is a high-speed movement technique, allowing a ninja to move short distances at an almost untraceable speed. To an observer, it appears as if the user has teleported. It is accomplished by using chakra to temporarily boost the user's reflexes. The amount of chakra required depends on the overall distance between the user and their intended destination. Shisui Uchiha, one of the most talented Uchiha, was feared as "Shisui of the Body Flicker" ("Shunshin no Shisui"
wink , likely referring to this technique.
The Body Flicker technique has various variations among the different hidden villages, all of which involve some extra element aside from the movement itself. The extra element is usually some sort of substance used to distract the opponent, such as leaves or sand. Gaara, for instance, uses the "Sand Body Flicker" (Suna-Shunshin?), which uses sand to cover his movements. Other varieties include the "Mist Body Flicker" (Kiri-Shunshin?), "Water Body Flicker" (Mizu-Shunshin?), and "Leaf Body Flicker."
