This system uses Jutsu Points and Damage Points, both of which are used to make up all techniques.

Jutsu Points – Abbreviated as JP. Every level you get technique points dependent on your level (see chart at bottom or Leveling Rules). All techniques cost a certain amount of Jutsu Points. As a character you only get a certain amount of Jutsu Points in total, so spend them carefully!

Damage Points (DP) – Abbreviated as DP. Damage points represent the amount of stamina/chakra you can use in a technique. All damage and effects a technique contain have a certain amount of damage points they are worth, and by swapping out damage and putting in status effects you can balance your technique to an appropriate cost. Notice that damage and stat reduction and addition can be preformed for less cost as you get higher ranks and better ratios; where as status effects always have the same straight DP value.

As you gain ninja ranks technique become easier to learn and you have access to higher level techniques. See the below chart.

Jutsu Requirements and Tags

Jutsu Tag: A jutsu tag is the information in the () or [] following a technique's Rank or Type field. For instance, a jutsu with “Type: Ninjutsu [Fire]” has a jutsu tag of “Fire”. Jutsu tags are indicators of requirements that are built into a jutsu. For more information on these requirements see each type of tag below.


Element/Style Tag: This is a tag following the “Type” field that will indicate either an element (Ninjutsu/Genjutsu) or a style (Taijutsu). To use or learn a technique with one of these tags you will need a skill that allows you to use techniques of that type. For instance, you will need “Subtle Elements [Fire]” to use fire techniques and the “Mountain Ox Style” skill to use Mountain Ox Style techniques.

Source Tag: This is a tag following the “Type” field that will indicate a village name, an item name, or a character name (with the word personal before it). To learn a jutsu with this tag you will either have to be from that village, be in possession of said item (and be able to use it), be the character named, or spend a five (5) post training thread learning the technique from someone who already knows it.

Special Tag: A special tag will often follow the “Rank” field (But may follow the "Type" field as well) and will designate a special type of technique that may or may not refer to some special rules. Examples of some special tags may be “Forbidden: Powerful”, “Forbidden: Unacceptable”, “Sealing”, "Trap" or "Medical". If you are unsure of a tag's meaning or requirements, ask a staff member or the owner of said technique.

Taijutsu

   This is a quick guide for creating your own Taijutsu technique. Below is the ratios, restrictions and information for each ninja rank which can be used to create your own techniques. All ratios are in the format [ Cost : Effect ] meaning that if the damage ratio is [ 4:5 ] that means for every 4 Stamina you can deal 5 damage with your technique.

---

Ninjutsu

   This is a quick guide for creating your own Ninjutsu technique. Below is the ratios, restrictions and information for each ninja rank which can be used to create your own techniques. All ratios are in the format [ Cost : Effect ] meaning that if the damage ratio is [ 2:3 ] that means for every 2 Chakra you can deal 3 damage with your technique.

---

Genjutsu

   This is a quick guide for creating your own Genjutsu technique. Below is the ratios, restrictions and information for each ninja rank which can be used to create your own techniques. All ratios are in the format [ Cost : Effect ] meaning that if the stat addition/subtraction ratio is [ 3:5 ] that means for every 3 Chakra you can subtract or add 5 stat points to a character for a turn with your technique.

---

Erosion

   Erosion is a keyword sometimes used in the "Points" field of a technique. Erosion means that if you learn this technique when you are a higher rank than then the technique is listed as, the technique costs less jutsu points. The number listed in the Erosion field is the number of Jutsu Points you reduce from the cost for every rank higher than it your character is (This will hardly, if ever, be higher than one). For example: In the following technique if you were to learn it at Chuunin rank you would subtract 1 from the cost and it would cost 3 technique points. At Jounin it would cost 2 and at Kage it would cost 1.

---

Evolving

   Evolving is a keyword sometimes used in the "Points" field of a technique. A technique with this ability gains a JP reduction if a specified technique before it is known. The technique with this ability fully replaces the required technique, and the replaced technique (though still known by the character and kept on their sheet) cannot be used again. Evolving, when it appears on a technique, will be accompanied by the regular price of the jutsu and then the reduced price of the jutsu. This does not apply if you pay the regular cost of the jutsu. This JP reduction may never exceed the amount of JP spent on the required technique and may never reduce a cost below one (1) JP point. Any jutsu being paid for with the 'evolving jutsu' cost cannot be purchased until the character has the required rank.

   In the following example, the first level of the jutsu "Recovery" is owned by the ninja. They may now take the second level of the jutsu as they reach Chuunin for a reduced cost of one (1) Jutsu Point, however they may never use "Recovery; Level 1" again as it is overwritten.

Ninjutsu Elements

   The following is a medium-level explanation of the nature of Chakra. It attempts to give a basic grounding in the nature of chakra and some of its more advanced applications; of course this is not an exhaustive explanation. For the purposes of Ninja Academy, elements will be applied to Ninjutsu techniques.

   The five basic elements are the "building blocks" of all the other elements in the game. Using different combinations of these five you can create any element you can think of. In the absence of all elements, there is "Void", which is what is used for such techniques as Shadow Clone. In other words, void chakra is chakra without an element.

   The next easiest chakra to use after "Void" is one of the five basic elements. Between the basic elements and Light are many Combinatorial Elements, which are covered in 5.08: Combinatorial Elements.

Starting Elements by Village
   Each village receives Subtle Elements or Combinatorial skills for free. Depending on where your character hails from, they receive an ability to use an element for free. You may have noticed that certain elements which are basic to a few of the villages (Sound, Plant, Cloud, and Sand) are considered Combinatorial. These villages, however, have put so much research into the elements that they can use the combination element even if they do not full understand the basic elements that make it up. Thus ninja from Sunagakure, Otogakure, Kumogakure and Kusagakure are allowed to the Combinatorial skill for free upon character creation.

The following are the skills your recieve for free upon character creation.

• Konohagakure recieves "Subtle Elements; Fire" free.
  
• Iwagakure recieves "Subtle Elements; Earth" free.
  
• Kirigakure recieves "Subtle Elements; Water" free.
  
• Sunagakure recieves "Subtle Elements; Wind" and "Combinatorial; Sand" free.
  
• Otogakure recieves "Combinatorial; Sound" free.
  
• Kusagakure recieves "Combinatorial; Plant" and "Combinatorial; Wood" free.
  
• Kumogakure recieves "Subtle Elements; Lightning" and "Combinatorial; Cloud" free.

Combinatorial Elements

   Combinatorial Elements are some of the most interesting and exotic of attacks that a ninja can perform. However, the further you get from the basic five elements the harder it is to control and manipulate the chakra. In order to create these specialized types of chakra a character must go through a precise series of training and development. In our system, that means a character must take a skill to allow them to access to power of each elemental combination. Each Combinatorial skill will have requirements of the Subtle Elements skills for the elements needed to create them. For instance, to take “Combinatorial; Sand” you will need to have the skills “Subtle Elements; Wind” and “Subtle Elements; Earth”. The more basic elements that must be combined in order to make the combinatorial element means a higher skill cost and a more powerful effect.

The following are all examples of elemental combinations:

Damage Reduction With Combinatorial Elements
   Abilities of any kind that reduce the damage of a certain element by a %, still work to some degree against combinatorial elements with said element as a part of it, but the percentage is lowered. For example, if you have 50% reduction to wind damage then you would have a 25% reduction to sand damage, since sand is made up of 50% of wind, and 50% of 50% is 25%. These percentiles are rounded down.

Multi Element Techniques; Not Combinations
   Any technique that uses more than one element but does not mix those elements (or make a combination element) only gets the skill bonus from the first element listed in the type. In the following example technique, the user would only apply the bonus from the skill "Subtle Elements; Fire" because Fire is listed first in the type field. This is considered the technique's "major" element.

---

Elemental Specialties

   Specialties are passed down from parent to child; any shinobi who can use the basic elements has also probably developed their first specialty. To develop a second specialty is more difficult but most people have worked it out by Jounin rank. A third specialty is extremely rare, but entirely possible; many Kages have a third specialty.

   It is important to remember that you CAN preform jutsu without an elemental specialty (for example, if that element is a specialty of your home village, or if you've taken Subtle Elements to learn to use that element), but the specialties show an affinity with that element and offer bonuses to other abilities as well.

   A player recieves their specialties at levels 30 and 80, and they are assigned with a random roll. To begin training for a specialty your Jounin will ask you to do something, at which point you make a roll that they will define. Most likely a 5 sided die with each element as a number.

The five specialty are listed on the skill page which can be found here.

   Specialties can combine their JP reduction effects if you have more than one. If you have ONLY the wind specialty, wind jutsu have a -1 JP cost. But if you are level 80 and have Wind AND Earth Specialties, not only do Wind and Earth jutsu cost -1 JP, but elements made of only those two (such as Sand) get the -1 JP reduction as well.

   The first elemental specialty can be rolled for as early as character creation and placed on the character sheet. However, the effects of the specialty may not be used until the training is done. The training may not be done early, and can only be done once you reach level 30. Make sure that you ask a staff member to set up the roll for you (choosing which numbers are what element, usually as they appear on the skill page) and also that the staff member witnesses your roll.

Taijutsu Styles

   Every martial artist fights different, and very few ever end up fighting the same even when from the same school of learning. The way in which they progress in battle, and the goals in which they seek to achieve with each movement are so tuned that many schools of learning have emerged over the ages. These schools have thus brought to life many different styles of Taijutsu, along with handfuls of students who swear by their own style.

   All Taijutsu Styles will function differently with different sets of goals, bonuses, negatives and rewards. What will be the same in all of them is the concept of <style> charges. (<style> is written as such because each style will have a unique name for its type of chare, often it will be the name of the style. i.e. - Lotus style will build Lotus Charges and Crane Style will build Balance Charges). Every time a technique of the particular style strikes an opponent, the user of the technique will gain one <style> charge. As these charges build up, they will allow the user to access higher level techniques and other bonuses specific to that style. However, charges may not stack beyond five. If a player would receive a <style> charge when they already have five charges, they will simply not gain any further charges. Multi-hit techniques do not build multiple charges.

   A player must know the Taijutsu Style skill in order to learn techniques of that style. All techniques that require the use of <style> charges will have the amount of charges needed included in their cost.

   For reference in techniques, gaining an extra charge is worth approximately 40 Damage Points. Gaining more than two <style> charges from a single technique will be incredibly rare if it is ever approved at all.


Rules Overview
- Unless otherwise stated, a user starts a battle with zero <style> Charges.
- Every time a technique of the particular style strikes an opponent, the user of the technique will gain one <style> charge unless the technique or style itself specifies differently. A technique may, for example, deal less damage but gain two charges on a successful hit.
- Charges may only be gained once per turn. You may gain multiple charges through one source, but you may not gain multiple charges through multiple sources.
- A style may never have more than five charges. If a player has five charges already and would gain an additional one, it is discarded.
- The way in which charges are spent and what kind of bonus they give the user will be determined by the style skill for that particular fighting style. See the Lotus example below.
- Some techniques in a particular style may require the user to spend charges in order to use the technique. In these cases the charges that are spent are subtracted from your total charges whether the technique connects or not. The amount of charges needed to be spent will be specified in the cost of the technique. Any style may spend Charges in this way unless they say otherwise.
- A technique may never be more than one style unless given explicit permission by the staff through a majority vote.
- Charges may only be built for one Taijutsu Style at a time. If a player wishes to begin building charges for a Style after they have acquired charges for a different Style, they immediately lose all charges for the first style simultaneously when they receive a charge for the second style.
- A player may choose to not gain a charge if they would gain one from any source.
- A list of village Taijutsu Styles can be found on the skills page.

Area of Effect Jutsu

   Area of Effect jutsu are jutsu that affect everyone in the battle. Unless stated otherwise, an Area of Effect (AoE) technique hits everyone on the field (opponent or ally) except the user. They can be used with Taijutsu, Ninjutsu or Genjutsu as long as they make sense.

Dodging
   Dodging an AoE technique is different than dodging a regular technique. Logically, this is because dodging an attack that takes up a larger area is quite a bit harder to do. The quick explanation is that the chance to hit an opponent with an AoE technique is 150% greater.

   In other words, to dodge an AoE attack you first calculate the Chance to Hit like you would normally. Once you have the Chance to Hit, multiply it by 1.5 (or take half of it and add it on).

Example:
If you have an AoE attack and the normal to hit would be 50%, you take half of that (25%) and add it onto the 50% to get a total of 75% chance to hit. Of course the normal maximum and minimum of 90% and 15% are still used. So a technique that starts with an chance to hit of 70% will still be capped at 90% chance to hit.

Costs
   All Area of Effect techniques are three times the Damage Points of the technique if it was not AoE. For instance, a technique that cost 50 chakra on a single target would cost 150 chakra as an AoE technique.

* Area of Effect jutsu are also treated like multi-hit jutsu, in which they obtain one full modifier divided by the number of targets.
* If you want an Area of Effect jutsu that does not target allies it will cost four times the final cost of the technique instead of three times.
* Area of Effect jutsu by default never target yourself unless otherwise stated.

Hybrid Jutsu

   A hybrid jutsu is a mix between two or more kinds of jutsu such as a Ninjutsu/Taijutsu technique or a Genjutsu/Ninjutsu technique. These jutsu are especially hard to create and use because they require a split knowledge of each field as well as some special requirements. When creating hybrid jutsu it is important to remember these rules.

When USING hybrid jutsu its important to remember these rules.

Kinjutsu (Forbidden)

   Only Jounin Rank shinobi may take Kinjutsu, but usually they will only be available to the Sennin Rank, or level 100. This includes Juuin Jutsu (Curse Seals), Fuuinjutsu (Sealing Jutsu), and some Ninjutsu/Genjutsu/Taijutsu, and the occasional Hijutsu. All of these techniques contain a rank assigned to them and you must be that rank to learn them. You cannot purchase any of these for 2x JP cost at a lower rank. NO GENNIN OR CHUUNIN RANK OF ANY OF THESE TECHNIQUES ALLOWED NO MATTER WHAT. Jounin Rank of these will be very rare and not as powerful. Sealing jutsu and Curse Seals will never be Jounin.

There are two types of Kinjutsu, powerful Kinjutsu and unacceptable Kinjutsu.

Powerful Kinjutsu
Description: Jutsu that are beyond the power of normal jutsu and are extremely hard to learn. Thus they are also restricted to who can attempt to learn them and who can wield them, as they can turn tides in battles and wreck serious havoc within battle.

Game Mechanics: These jutsu can be learned/ created with the permission of your Kage. If you have the permission then you may use them without fear of being seen and becoming a missing-nin. If you do not have the permission of your Kage then these follow the normal Kinjutsu rules. To be allowed to use these techniques you will probably need Sennin status or at least level 100 and a good reputation with your village.

Unacceptable Kinjutsu
Description: Jutsu that are beyond the power of normal jutsu and are extremely dangerous and immoral. Examples of these techniques would include Orochimaru's Immortality jutsu and also his Impure World Resurrection since they both result in the sacrifice of another person. Anything that goes against societies views as acceptable are in this category.

Game Mechanics: These jutsu can never be allowed by a village Kage. If you are discovered to have knowledge of these techniques you immediately become a missing-nin.

The Kinjutsu Ratio
The ratio for a Kinjutsu is 1:2, and will follow the JP rules stated on the main site.

Possible Consequences
There is the possibility of becoming a missing-nin if you are caught performing Kinjutsu not allowed by your village Kage. Unacceptable Kinjutsu are never allowed by a village Kage and always follow the below guidelines.

Missing-nin Status
-You are seen performing a Kinjutsu by a victim, and the victim lives to tell.
-You are seen performing a Kinjutsu by another party who tells.
-You are seen performing a Kinjutsu by a Kage, ANBU, or other authority, and they live to tell.
-You commit an act of great attention (terrorism of obvious Kinjutsu) and there are survivors who tell.

No Missing-nin Status
-Someone sees but does not tell.
-Someone sees but cannot tell (dead).
-Someone sees, but are not trusted and thus not believed.
-Someone sees, but cannot tell (mute, or incomprehensible).

Basically, if no one can tell or alert others to your using Kinjutsu, you will not be labeled a missing-nin.

Fuuinjutsu (Sealing)

   Sealing Jutsu denotes a certain type of ninjutsu style that effectively marks a target with a seal that will affect that character outside of the current battle. The type "Sealing" can be placed after Ninjutsu in any technique much like the element, village name or other like tags.

   Sealing Jutsu are a special type of Forbidden Jutsu, and as such they follow the same rules. All Sealing Jutsu are of either Powerful or Unnacceptable rank and only ninja of Sennin Rank may take Sealing Jutsu (sometimes Jounin Rank under very limited circumstances; ask an administrator). All other rules for Forbidden Jutsu are applied to Sealing Jutsu

---

Learning Higher Rank Jutsu

   You may learn technique 1 rank above your current rank by paying twice the amount of jutsu points that the technique normally costs. When you reach the next rank these points are NOT refunded. This can only be done for techniques ONE rank above your own, and no skill, bloodline or anything else can allow you to learn techniques two ranks above your current. This cannot be used to learn evolving jutsu.

---

Multiple Target Jutsu

Golden Rule: All ninja get only one full modifier per turn. Always.

   All damage or stat reduction done in a single turn gains only one modifier. The modifier, if there are multiple hits, is divided by the amount of hits (rounded up) and then added to every separate hit. Usually we prefer to not have techniques use more than five hits at a single time, as rolling to dodge can get annoying. This applies to basic attacks, small weapon attacks and any other attacks that are not a jutsu and are not covered under the multiple target jutsu rules.

Example:
Ninja A has a Ninjutsu score of 200 uses a technique that fires four fireballs for 20 damage each.
- First you find out the modifier, which for this example is 50.
- Next you divide the modifier by 4, which is 12.5, rounded to 13.
- Finally you add this to each fireball, which causes each to deal 33 damage a peice.

So what’s the point of multi-attack jutsus if they can miss more? They are more likely to hit an opponent, even if they may deal less damage. Because they must dodge for each attack there is a greater chance to land at least one hit.

Multiple Turn Stat Reduction Modifiers
A jutsu that lasts multiple turns and reduces a player's stats for those turns has its modifier broken up over those turns. This is to make sure that a player only gets one modifier per turn, every turn. If a technique has a set amount of turns, the modifier is divided evenly over these turns, rounded up. If the technique has no predetermined amount of turns (has an upkeep) then the player applies their full modifier for every turn, but may not gain a Genjutsu modifier for any technique performed until the upkept technique is ended. Again, this is to assure that only one modifier is being applied per turn.

Multiple Turn Damage Modifiers
A jutsu that lasts multiple turns and deals damage over these turns gets full modifiers on the first turn and then the damage dealt afterwards is unmodified by any stats.

Ghost Damage

   Ghost Damage can be dealt only by Genjutsu. It reflects mental trauma; in other words, your mind has been tricked into thinking your body is dead. Ghost Health is kept separate from (but the total is equal to) your actual health, and regenerates 5% every other turn. Upon reaching 0 Ghost Health you must roll a 100 sided die. On a roll of 80 or below, you pass out* until woken or until your Ghost HP reaches 100% (in 20 turns). On a roll of 81 or above, you are stunned for one turn (This stun does not count towards the maximum that can be used on a player per battle). After that one turn is over, your Ghost Health is regenerated 75% of its total, dropping by 25% each time your ghost health is reduced to 0 (Second time would be 50%, Third time 25%, Fourth time you are automatically unconscious). The modifier comes into effect after the die roll not during the die roll.

* - Passed out means that a player is treated as if their current HP is at 0 and they are unconscious. If their HP drops below 10% of their total health into the negative, they will die.

Ghost damage cannot be healed by normal medical techniques.

---

Multi-Rank Jutsu

   Jutsu that have the effect at “Gennin does this, Chuunin does this' will not be allowed. Instead, the Jutsu will be split into Ranks (as are skills) and will have to be learned again at the appropriate level. This is a balancing tool, and encourages players to use Jutsu Points wisely.

---

Chakra and Stamina Damage

   All damage dealt to Chakra and Stamina is unmodified. When a stat talks about increasing damage on a technique, it is exclusively talking about Health damage.

The ratios for damage to Chakra and Stamina are always 1:1, no matter the ninja's rank.

---

Auto-Hit Attacks

   There will be no auto-hit attacks of any sort unless agreed upon by all administrators at the time.

---

Passive Damage Reduction

   All passive damage reduction to certain types of techniques can never go further than 75% reduction. This means that skills and equipment with passive effects that reduce damage cannot stack to go beyond 75% reduction. This includes bloodlines.

---

When You Can Learn Jutsu

   You can learn jutsu in between missions and battles. You CANNOT learn a jutsu during a battle and you can only learn a jutsu during a mission if you role play it very well, and it has to be admin approved beforehand.

---

Countering/Response Phase Jutsu

   When using a Counter Response Phase technique there are several drawbacks depending on your rank (listed below).

General Rules
- Counter Response Phase techniques may only be used against techniques that are of equal or less rank to the technique used. They must reference their own rank, not the rank of the ninja using them.
- Counter Response Phase techniques only work against attacks of equal or less rank to the user in general, if this is not mentioned within the technique this is assumed. Please try and state it within the technique.
- When using a Counter Response Phase technique against a multi-attack technique, treat the multiple attacks as one attack.
- All Counter Response Phase techniques must have a limit of uses per battle, and preferably never exceeding three uses per battle.
- Genin ranked Response Phase jutsu may only work on one specific type of attack. Categories such as "Taijutsu", "Ninjutsu" and "Genjutsu" are too broad and must be further broken down, such as "Hand Based Taijutsu", "Fire Ninjutsu", "Hearing Based Genjutsu".

Fail Chance
   All response phase techniques have a 5% standard, unmodified, chance to fail. To determine the fail chance the player using the response phase technique is required to roll a 100 sided die. With the roll of a 5 or lower the technique fails. On the plus side, a response phase technique that fails does not cost anything, as it was never activated. If you fail a response phase jutsu it counts as your use of a jutsu for the response phase and you are hit by the attack. You do not get to use any other skills/techs or dodge roll.

Fail Chance is also dependant on the users rank against the rank of the opponent.

Rank equal to your own: 5%
One rank lower to your own: 1%
Two ranks+ lower than your own: 0%
One rank higher than your own: 10%
Two ranks+ higher than your own: 15%

   A user may have a technique they create have a higher chance to fail to achieve certain bonuses. Such bonuses are shown below, but not limited to the below options.
*Note these are not the only way to achieve these bonuses; they are just the way to do so by modifying the chance to fail on the technique.

Blocking Multiple Techniques with One Jutsu
   To create a technique that blocks multiple techniques in a turn it must follow certain restrictions.
- The response phase technique must be of at least Jounin level to block basic and/or weapon attacks. It must be of Sennin level to block techniques and other types of attacks.
- The cost of a technique that is blocking multiple other techniques must have a +25% cost increase as compared to its cost when responding to just one technique.

---

Medical Jutsu

   To be able to use any type of medical jutsu, unless otherwise stated, you must first obtain the skill First Aid Provider. Further skills are required to learn more advanced medical techniques, and all can be found on the skill page under the medical section.

-Medical Jutsu do not receive and modifiers normally.
-Offensive Medical Jutsu: Can only be accessed by people with 'Path of the Combative Medical Ninja'. These are the only allows Medical Jutsu that can deal damage to a player.

Medical Ratios

Damage/Healing:

Stat Increases/Decreases:

*Pay 70% of original price for every turn after that, max of 5 turns. These percentiles are for any type of upkeep.
*Stat addition cannot increase your stats more than 1.5x, (x = your base stat)

---

Trap Jutsu

Dynamic Traps
   A trap is a regular technique that needs to meet certain requirements on the battlefield to be performed. They have a higher chance of hit and better cost to damage ratios than regular techniques of their level. The ratio will change for each trap depending on the difficulty and amount of requirements.

   There are three types of traps, Ninjutsu, Taijutsu and Genjutsu, just like any other techniques. The modifiers are all the same for each as if they were just a regular ninjutus/taijutsu/genjutsu. The only difference between traps and a regular technique is the bonus to accuracy and the buffed cost to damage ratios.

   Each trap has a +20% bonus to hit to start with, and that bonus declines based on two things, your concentration and how many times the technique is used on you throughout your character's lifetime. So the first time a trap is used on you it has a +20% accuracy bonus. Then every time after that it decreases until it gets no bonus, it does not reduce it more than the bonus gives. Remember, that no matter what, the first time a trap is used on you it gets a +20% chance to hit.

-For every time the technique is used on you in your lifetime you get -2% to the bonus automatically.
-For every 40 points in concentration that you have, a trap has a -2% to the bonus. This only applies after the first time the trap is used.

Also, unlike regular techniques that can have a minimum of 15% chance to hit, the lowest a trap can go is 20% chance to hit.

When making a custom trap you MUST have at least two conditions, or one very specific condition. This is to prevent "accidental traps".

Trap Sheet

Examples:

Set Traps
   These traps are different than the above as there is a chance you can fall victim to your own trap. The rules for status effects stay the same as it would for normal jutsu. The ratio for these traps will be as follows.

Taijutsu Damage Ratios

Taijutsu Stat Subtractions

Stat Reduction Ratios

Ninjutsu Damage Ratios

Ninjutsu Stat Subtractions

Stat Reduction Ratios

Genjutsu Damage Ratios (Ghost Damage Only)

Genjutsu Stat Subtractions

Stat Reduction Ratios

   For every turn after you lay down a set trap you and the opponent must make a roll in your response phase too see if you trigger the trap. On the first turn after the trap is set the person who set the trap has a 0% chance to set the trap off. The opponent has a 10% chance to set off the trap. The next turn you have a 5% chance to set off the trap and the opponent has a 20% chance. Every turn the owner of the trap's percentage increases by 5% and the opponent's chance of setting off the trap increases by 10%. The maximum for either person is 90%. The first person to roll under their percent on a 100 sided die sets off the trap and takes the damage and effects. Once you set off the trap you have a chance to dodge it, but it is a 15% chance to dodge, modifiers, equipment and non-bloodline skills cannot affect this percentile.

Example:

Dynamic Traps (set up through course of combat): Constant +20% on to-hit roll, minimum of 1 prep step.

Set Traps (mines, tripwires, bear traps, etc.) Initial 10% to hit opponent, 0% to hit user. Opponent's percent to hit raises by 10% each turn while the user's raises by 5% each turn. Maximum of 90% to hit either person.

---

Increasing a Jutsu's Critical Strike Chance

   A jutsu may have an increased critical chance of up to 30% maximum. This is where a technique increases the critical strike chance of itself in the effects. This type of bonus is considered "passive" since the technique in question always has the bonus.

Example:
