Last post by Codemaster Jamal - Mar 27, 2025, 09:24 AMI've decided to go with a statless RP because, there's already a Naruto RP that isn't statless and it's doing very well. For the most part, I'm going to go ahead and modify all of the templates. Right now, I'm paying off an enormous debt, so I won't be able to spend much time working on stuff. I'm going to rewrite the rules for Combat, Specialization and a lot of other things. I'm actually happy that we are going with a statless RP. Looking back, it's a lot better.
I'm also going to be adding some new Special Affinity Elements. This includes Dustbending, Bloodbending, Steelbending and Galebending. At some point, I wanted to incorporate some elements from Boruto, such as genetic human experiments and androids. I wasn't going to do this before but, I'm glad I did. The lore for this universe is a little different than the actual world of Naruto but, I'd like to see it as a good blend of things. I'll post a topic in the announcements forum when I'm done.

Last post by Lunarachne - Mar 25, 2025, 03:06 PMBeing statless does not make it an NRC clone intrinsically, just makes it free form style. Plus even by the end, NRC had soft stats, and people who were pushing it for tons of stats.
The added will be interesting to see and probably will lead to possible changes in things to be posted soon. I figure what ever will be the end results will make things fun as long as the community ends up nicely built up, ya know?

Last post by Codemaster Jamal - Mar 23, 2025, 11:05 AMWe're keeping the basic stats just for combat but, I decided to keep Health and Qi count for the purpose of making this RP more story driven. I want there to be more than just combat but, I love shinobi battles and I feel like I got robbed of Kazekagehood in a rp battle on a site that was related to NRC but, got taken down pretty quick.
I still want to have a battle using the Clan Leader NPCs. The way I see it, the maximum amount you can have in any stat is 100. You get rewards for completing quests as well. This is just to make sure there is an end game. While the game is young, it will matter greatly as everyone struggles to reach the top but, by the time newer members get in, it'll be a bit easier because there will be more members.
I wanted there to be multiple Kage level characters in the game. I want us to write stories together and see if people can overcome obstacles with their characters. I have something interesting for everyone that likes text-based games. Try not to think about power but, at the same time someone who is a Martial Arts Specialist should naturally be physically stronger and more agile than a Destruction Magic Specialist or an Illusion Magic Specialist but, a Weapon Skill Specialist can keep up with Martial Arts Specialist in terms of agility but, not so much physical strength. Meanwhile, Destruction Magic Specialist and Illusion Magic Specialist have more Qi and are better at attacking from long or mid range.
The stats are there to give more depth to what a characters actual limits are instead of having something imaginary. I didn't want everything to be determined based on Rank and Specialization. It's just to say that 100 is the strongest you can get at something and if that person is a specialist in that area, they are most likely to beat you in that area.
EDIT/
Okay, so I've decided to go with the idea of a statless RP. I didn't want to clone NRC but, it's becoming like that. At least our templates are different. I'll spend time rewriting rules but, feel free to post your stuff. That's the first thing I'm going to change.
I was going to offer the idea of just using XP counters but, nevermind. There's also 4 more additional special affinities I want to add by default.

Last post by Lunarachne - Mar 22, 2025, 06:00 PMPersonally, I have always been more a fan of free form, or if stats have to be in use, having them be minimally invasive. Stops the Roleplay from ending up being a text game. That being said, ultimately what you wish to do is fine and up to you. I am just here to support and try to get back into writing more.

Height: 5 foot 7 in (1.70 meters)
Weight: 133 lbs (60.32 kg)

He is up to date with several fashion trends and often sports a long golden earring on his right ear. Like many in the Hizakura, he is very slender. He typically wears a pink or red gi with white pants that is very typically for the members of Shizuka Village.
Personality: Saikou is known for being a tad bit sassy. He often likes to make rude and vulgar jokes just to piss people off. He often has a habit of going on tangents. He doesn't like politics but, prefers to just do his mission and get his assignments over with. He typically makes jokes when people don't make an effective use of time or when people get lazy or go off task. He takes his job as a shinobi very serious.
Geographical Information
Country of Origin: The Land of Monkeys
Current Residence: Shizuka Village
Class: Ninja
Faction: The Ninja Villages - Shizuka
Faction Rank: Jounin
Backstory: Saikou was a simple but, charming young lad of Shizuka Village. Like most children in Shizuka, he often took part in the festivals that are held every year. In one of the festivals, he was responsible to acrobatic entertainment one year while he was attending the Qi Academy. Like many of the children of Shizuka Village, he would often look up to the Sarukage in terms of guidance and leadership. Ever since he was a child, he was always known for being very handsome and good looking. He was definitely one of the favorite of the girls in the village.
As Saikou got older, he eventually graduated the Qi Academy and began to work as a professional shinobi of Shizuka Village. He would often do errands around the village, helping the elderly repair parts of their home and sometimes assisting the medical team in gathering herbs for special ointments and medicines. His first time during the Chunin Exam, it was a complete fail as he didn't get pass the first exam. During that year, he worked really hard and trained really well so that in the next Chunin Exam, he would get towards the second exam but, ultimately fail again. During the second exam, he managed to activate his Shakugan Bloodline Magic and was able to make it his specialty. By his third try, he managed to make it to the finals but, only lost during the final match. Due to his determination however, Saikou was allowed to move up to Chunin.
As time progressed, Saikou began to master his Shakugan. It was a unique Bloodline Magic that was found within Shizuka Village and the Land of Monkeys. He spent a lot of his free time studying the Shakugan, often taking good notes from his elders about past wars. He learned the secrets of the Shakugan and managed to master it's powers in a few years. Eventually, he became well known in the Hizakura Clan as a prominent Shakugan user. He was one of the top ranked Shakugan users and managed to master several jutsu.
Shortly after his time mastering the Shakugan, Saikou was given a high ranked mission that required him to infiltrate the Land of Birds. There was a rogue shinobi that held Eye Magic powers similar to his. When he arrived to the Land of Birds, he discovered that the previous leader of the Hizakura Clan was outcasted into the Land of Birds. It was also mentioned that the current leader of the Hizakura Clan went missing during a mission in the Land of the Birds. It was Saikou's duty to hunt down information about the whereabouts of the Hizakura Clan leader.
Upon arriving into the Land of Birds, Saikou got information about the previous Hizakura Clan member hidding in the Bamboo Forest. After tracking the previous leader down, it was discovered that the previous leader was performing a forbidden jutsu on the current leader. The current leader was unconscious as their life force was being sucked out of them. Saikou managed to cancel the forbidden jutsu using his knowledge of Sealing Magic. He then took down the previous clan leader and dispelled the Illusion Magic that was placed onto the current leader. Saikou also managed to outpower the previous leader's Shakugan in the middle of combat. The previous leader of the Hizakura was exterminated for good.
Saikou's mission lead to a victory, as he returned the leader of his clan back to Shizuka Village. Saikou was thanked for the success of his mission and as a reward was granted the rank of Jounin. Shortly after, instead of the current leader taking on Saikou in the middle of combat, he decided to step over and walked out of the Hizakura Clan in exile. It was somewhat of a clan tradition that when a new leader was selected, the other would leave the village in live in exile. Saikou always thought this was stupid and as the new leader, decided he would change this rule and allow the current leader to live within Shizuka.
By this point, Saikou had greatly matured. While still a fan favorite among the ladies in the village, he simply isn't thinking about settling down anytime soon. Many of the women personally don't know much about Saikou but, still often favor him due to his looks. Despite his sassy personality and vulgar language, he is still a favorite with the ladies of his village.
Currently, he is seen as one of the right hands of the Sarukage. The Sarukage had been serving his village since long before his birth. He is in debted to the village that spent so much time to raise him so that he would grow up strong. It is due to this loyalty to the village that he would never turn his back on them. He is also very well respected in the Hizakura Clan as their leader but, many of the members wished he would tone down on his language from time to time.

General Discussion / Re: Plans
Last post by Codemaster Jamal - Mar 17, 2025, 11:48 AMWhat do you think of the idea of getting rid of Health and just using a Qi count at the bottom of every post? Do you have any ideas for how we should go about combat on this site? I don't want that to be the main point but, I'd like to do some ninja battles from time to time.
In this stat system, we still have the four main attributes but, instead, at the bottom of every post, we leave our character's current Qi count? This way, it's a bit less math but, I wanted some math related in combat. That or we do a pure text-based combat system that has no rules and basically let's the user do anything they can think out of their imagination? I wasn't a big fan of the combat system for NRC and a few of the NRC spin offs that came along. I want to do something different but, I think for now, it'll be better if we find some kind of middle ground?
