Junreiketsu

[Rakirian]

Junreiketsu

The Sukaikon clans bloodline: Junreiketsu, is a form of chakra adaption and extension bloodline. Allowing the chakra to survive outside of its host for a long period of time and adapt itself to its new surrounding/host. This has come to the creation of both social and combat skills within the clan.

Junreiketsu

Must have Hindering skill at creation:

Skill Name: Chakra Elemental Ritual

Bloodline: Junreiketsu

Effect: Any Sukaikon clan member is unable to use ANY elemental jutsus(except Void) including their village element until they reach level 50. At that level they will do the Chakra Elemental Specialty test to see which element their chakra leans towards. Once that's done they may use that element and ONLY that element and void jutsus. No more specialty test may be conducted, including before and after level 50 test. This skill may not be overcome. Cannot have "Ninjutsu sealed" or any "Subtle Elements".

Description: The Sukaikon clan's bloodline Junreiketsu is a very hard chakra type to test to see which element it leans towards until it has developed at a later stage in life which will mark the day of the Sukaikon member gaining the rank within the clan as a Master. Their chakra never leans towards several elements like normal chakra does.

Cost: +3 -MUST be taken at character creation of any Sukaikon clan member-

Junreiketsu Mastery

To master the Junreiketsu, the user must learn how to utilize the stances of combat and how to extend their chakra control from inside the body, to the outside.

Rank 1: Enables the user to use stances and to extend their chakra from their hands and feet for a long duration of time. Stances can now be activated/deactivated in Main phase. All Sukaikon Clan Jutsu's cost -1/one less JP (does not stack with other ranks and Jutsu cost may never go below 1 jp cost. No other JP reducing skills can be -used- in conjunction with this skill/ability to lower the clan based JP costs).

-1

Rank 2: Chakra extension can now also extend from arms, legs and also for a short time around the users body. Stances can now be activated/deactivated in Setup or Main phase.

-Lv 10 requirement-

-1

Rank 3: Chakra extension may now be able over the entire body for a long duration of time. Stances can now be activated/deactivated in Response, Setup or Main phase.

-Chuunin rank requirement-

Brutal Stance

Brutal Stance is one of the Sukaikon clans fighting styles which use the potential of their bloodline: Junreiketsu to cause as much damage possible to their enemy. By letting the chakra form around the users closed fist, the chakra charge then drives into the enemy as the fist connects. Forcing its way through the body in a uncontrolled fashion, ripping and tearing through it until it comes straight out the other side of the enemy. This stance has by that fact been named by the best way of describing the way it's used with one word: Brutal.

-This stance must be activated to be able to use any Brutal Stance jutsu's-

Rank 1: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 10 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 10. This adds after modifier calculation.

-Must have Rank 1 in Junreiketsu Mastery-

-1

Rank 2: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 20 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 20. This adds after modifier calculation. The user can also use any of the previous Brutal Stance rank instead as a damage increase ex: 10.

-Lv 10 requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 1)-

-1

Rank 3: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 40 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 40. This adds after modifier calculation. The user can also use any of the previous Brutal Stance rank as a damage increase ex: 10 & 20.

-Chuunin rank requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 2)-

-1

Rank 4: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 80 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 80. This adds after modifier calculation. The user can also use any of the previous Brutal Stance rank as a damage increase ex: 10, 20 & 40.

-Jounin rank requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 3)-

-1

Rank 5: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 160 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 160. This adds after modifier calculation. The user can also use any of the previous Brutal Stance rank as a damage increase ex: 10, 20, 40 & 80.

-Senin/Kage rank requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 4)-

Thousand Cuts Stance

Thousand Cuts is aptly named, though the stance does not involve blades. By creating chakra around their hands, the user will strike with hands open as if they were in fact blades. With cutting and stabbing motions, the chakra would then "invade" the enemy when made contact. Once inside, the chakra would adapt itself to the new host and expand in the area they were placed on, causing tension and stiffness around the area making movement more and more difficult for the enemy.

Total amount of Speed the enemy can be lowered by Rank during battle (the effect will go away after the battle has ended):

Genin: 60

Chuunin: 120

Jounin: 240

Senin/Kage: 480

-The total amount will stop increasing once at their maximum cap-

-The effect does not stack with multi-hit attacks, meaning that if you deliver two punches in one turn and both hits: only the first punch will deliver the speed reduction effect-

-This effect can be "cured"/changed back if Release Chakra skill is used on target by a Medical Shinobi of the same rank of the user that did the Thousand Cuts attack and higher rank-

-The effect will automaticly start change back itself by the double amount of the current Thousand Cuts rank(ex: Rank 3 = +40 x2) every other turn unless Thousand Cuts jutsu connects again.-

-This stance must be activated to be able to use any Thousand Cuts Stance jutsu's-

Rank 1: Thousand Cuts jutsu's will now cause the target to stiffen up if hit. Target will be slowed down by -5 speed each time they get hit from a Thousand Cuts Stance jutsu or a basic attack while in Thousand Cuts stance. The total amount will continue to stack until reached Rank cap. It does not stack with previous rank.

-Must have Rank 1 in Junreiketsu Mastery-

Chakra Residue Control

After using techniques requiring chakra, there is always some form of residue after it. However in most cases the chakra is useless and dissapears shorty after. The Sukaikon clans more stronger chakra manages to remain longer as a residue after a technique due it's strong adaptive nature after decades of evolution. This enables the Sukaikon clan members to actually take use of their chakra residue in the forms of gathering it to perform more special "suprise" techniques.

Rank 1: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 5% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 1-

-1

Rank 2: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 10% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 2-

-1

Rank 3: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 15% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 3-

-1

Rank 4: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 20% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Chakra Residue Control Rank 3 and be lv 40-

-1

Chakra Residue Control Technique example:

Name: Yon kyuuzou chuuseki (Four pillar surge trap)

Type: Dynamic Trap [Ninjutsu] (Sukaikon Clan jutsu)

Rank: Gennin

Conditions: Need atleast 30 chakra cost paid from Chakra Residue.

Cost: 60

Damage: 60

Effects: n/a

Description: By using the chakra residue around the battlefield/and adding more chakra if needed, the Sukaikon member will mold the chakra into four bright blue coloured pillars that forms around the opponent. In a bright flash, the four pillars will explode with force into the center of the four pillars where the opponent stands.

Quick example of the stats calculation of a Spirit:

Lv 100 to lv 15:

Taijutsu Spirit at lv 100

(Life force points) %

(Taijutsu) 2000

(Defense) 1000

(Ninjutsu) 0

(Resistance) 1000

(Genjutsu) 0

(Concentration) 500

(Speed) 1200

(Accuracy) 1300

(Evasion) 1000

stat x 0.15 = lv 15 stat.

Taijutsu Spirit at lv 15

(Life force points) %

(Taijutsu) 300

(Defense) 150

(Ninjutsu) 0

(Resistance) 150

(Genjutsu) 0

(Concentration) 75

(Speed) 180

(Accuracy) 195

(Evasion) 150

Jutsu points: 15

Skill points: 7

[Eechi-go]

Okay, so maybe I missed it, but, do the spirits start at the same level as the user?

[Rakirian]

Yes they do.

However Spirits only comes available at the earliest of level 15 so to be precise, they start at lv 15 once the user reaches level 15 and gains the skill. From there on the gain level with the user like normal.

Edited September 14, 2008 by Rakirian

[Eechi-go]

Another question;

Once you choose which stats to dump your points into, you cannot change them, unless you level up, correct?

[Rakirian]

Correct, even tho you can't really change the stats when they level in the normal way. Since you create them first as a lv 100 spirit and then does the calculation on those stats to see how the stats are at the current level of the user. As my example post (The second one). These stats will be calculated every time the user levels up to see the spirits new stats for that level.

The only things which will be added every time the user levels up is the jutsu point to the spirits and the skill point if it's a even level number. (they gain 1 sp every other level compared to the 1 jp gain every level).

[cntrstrk14]

the first one doesn't seem to be worth +4 points, as someone could have their ninjutsu completely sealed and get less points.

Thousand cuts needs to have a limit of how long it works and I would rather it be a static number for reducing the opponent's speed rather than a percentile. We have always tried to steer away from percentiles.

Brutal stance also seems very similar to the Hyuuga bloodline in its mechanics.

Hmmm, good point on the first one...but what if we add in "Cannot have Ninjutsu sealed" into it to prevent such a thing to happen? The Sukaikon clan Jutsus will be indeed mostly taijutsu/hybrid based but it will have good amount of Ninjutsu also.(maybe should had posted up some example Jutsus in the other thread to had avoided this but oh well hehe)

Would that still make it be needed to reduce the amount of skill points?

Second one: Well, I would really like to try and keep the percentile effect if possible. It might be powerful way of having it but then again that is it's purpose BUT Im all in favour off trying to restrict it abit more to make it more balanced/weaker? Reducing it's duration of the effect etc like you said. Maybe have it last 2-3 turns or more or less and then if not consisted acumilated(user stops attacking in Thousand cuts stance), it will start to dissapear/reduce its effect. Also keeping the medical jutsu Release Chakra to make it possible to instantly reduce it to 0 once again.

Third: My intention was not to try and make it look like a copy of another bloodline. However Im all open for other suggestions/help on what it could be to make it more appealing, even tho the whole concept for the Brutal stance is to add damage. Being the more damaging in points stance compared to the Thousand Cuts stance which will be more leaned towards causing effects on the target. Just thought a simple adding X amount to deal Y amount extra would be ok but yeah like you said: it is very similar to the Hyuuga one (even tho not as strong if Im reading the Hyuuga one correctly but thats not the case).

-Spirit bumping!-

[cntrstrk14]

+4 is still to much for that effect, especially since it can be easy to just ignore ninjutsu with this bloodline.

Brutal stance could be workable, but it needs less flexibility. Make it a static amount that you can add instead of a choice. So instead of being 1-10 damage added, make it just 10 damage can be added.

Thousand Cut, No percentiles, especially not on reductions to opponent's. I'm sticking to static numbers. As for the time, I would say that every other turn if the opponent is not hit by one of those effects, it is reduced by twice the amount. So if you hit them two turns in a row for say -10 speed for each they would have a total of -20 speed. Then you don't hit them the next turn, they keep -20, if you don't hit them the turn after that they get +20, so the effects are gone. Not a bad effect, especially since you dont have to pay for it in battle.

[Rakirian]

All righty, changed all of it to your request.

The hinderance skill is now +3 instead of +4.

Brutal Stance has been made less flexible. However added that you may choose previous rank amount if the user wants. It's now alittle flexible BUT not as much as before. Any less flexible and it's just all stiff hehe^^

Thousand Cuts, even tho I still think percentiles would have been best/most balanced since it would never go below the lowest cap no matter what total speed one person hade, and the fear of it being overpowered to higher ranked users is nothing to worry about really since the gennin must first be able to hit the chuunin/jounin or even if they would even DARE fight a sennin...which would end IF they did hit they would reduce...nothing since they would get overkilled the next three attacks the sennin will get hehe. As a Sennin even, one hit of this on a Gennin would reduce his speed by half maximum so if the genin would be at 100 in speed: the sennin would at max reduce it to 50 after 4 jutsu hits...which would probably had killed him anyway.

I just wanted to type out the main reasons why I thought it would be better with percentile then numbers in this case since with the static numbers, a user can lower a persons speed to the minimum cap of 33%. I think it was if the target has bad stats in speed. This wouldn't had been the case for the percentile system HOWEVER I still see all the doubt over the being a strong thing agianst same ranked users and even one rank higher but then again it was made as such^^ (And also the calculation "issue" being a bother but then again...this beign a stat based RP...everything revolves around numbers and percentiles, but yes one could try and make it as easy as possible but if the sole reason that it should be static numbers instead of percentile is to make it "easy" to calculate then I think it's a bit unfair and lazy to a certain degree.)

Non the less I have changed it to a static number based system instead as you requested, and awaits your next reveiw.

[cntrstrk14]

The spirits are too powerful. You get four of them to use, and each one is the same level as well as having 50 skill points and 100 JP at level 100? This looks to be just as powerful as Essence Clone, but without a cost to use and available at level 15...

Thousand Cut - I think the speed reduction is a bit to high per hit. The caps seem fine, but I think it should take more then 4 hits in a row to reach those caps.

As another thought, this bloodline seems to be branching over two ideas, one for a 'summon' and one for a Hyuuga type of advanced damage/attacks. It is usually a good idea to choose one of them and focus around the one idea.

[Rakirian]

Ok time to give some explination to the creation of the Spirits. Yes, powerful but I have made many balance measures to make them strong but also very costly. Think of them as Summons. As stated in the rules of the Spirits, a Sukaikon clan member cannot have any summon and Spirit out at the same time. This can even be changed into not allowing Sukaikon clan to be able to learn summoning at all. The number four(amount of Spirits) is to give them a varity. Also the other rule: never can the user choose which Spirit to call forth, it's all based on the luck on their dice roll. Even this can if it so seems needed to be changed to only being able to call forth a spirit ONCE/TWICE per battle making it very risky/gamble to call one forth.

The stats and SP and JP amount is based on what they would have at lv 100 not at lv 15. At lv 15 they would have 15 JP and 7 SP. Compared to normal summons it will be ranked once it's at lv 100 which is the Spirits max level, they will be like a lv 4 summon when it comes to pure stats(even if they won't place stats on health, stamina and chakra) but is compared to a lv 5 summon. The cost to call them forth is based on your total amount of chakra. Meaning to call one forth cost at the lowest 40% of your total chalra pool which also represents it's health, stamina AND chakra amount to the Spirit. All damage it takes, attacks it makes will cost in that very same pool. Also a measure to make them NOT too powerful one cannot have the Spirit out for longer then 4 turns at gennin, 6 turns at chuunin level and 8 turns at Jounin level...which clones and ordinary summons don't have...they remain until destroyed or end of battle.

So basicly, they do have a quite big cost to use, they have limitations on their levels to balance and lastly a restriction on their time to be out in the battle. Powerful yes, too powerful no.

Thousand Cuts - That I agree with you, wasen't sure about the amount per hit so that I will change to a lower amount per hit.

Lastly: It takes two to tango...if only one dances it's not tango anymore. By having both these branches together it creates a good bloodline. Having only one branch as a bloodline and it will be incomplete. I guess I will never be able to convince you that this is not a Hyuuga type bloodline...but then again it's a matter of opinion of the general idea I guess. The Sukaikon clan is all about it's adaptive chakra. Being able to manipulate it at a whole other level, if I would try and describe it in a single sentence.

[cntrstrk14]

If you are basing off the summons rules, I am sorry to regret that we are in the process of changing them, as a level 6 summon is far more powerful than almost any player could hope to be an near impossible to get out. Basically, they will be decently nerfed.

On that note, the spirits themselves basically give you a second character at the same level.

[Rakirian]

All righty, I have put Chakra Spirits off the bloodline due to it being hard to incoporate efficiantly into the system. Instead I have replaced it with Chakra Residue Control. This branch will add chakra to a side pool whicj will then be used to perform special jutsu's which takes the form of dynamic traps. As I have been looking around and noticed that Dynamic Traps is almost never used.

Hope this will work out better then the Chakra Spirits.

Junreiketsu Mastery - Level 5 is like nothing from level 0, I think you should roll those two ranks into one or something, it seems like a needless step. Also, the progression of activating in phases should probably go Main Phase -> Setup Phase -> Response Phase. You don't need to state the -1 JP each level since they dont stack, just put it in rank 1. I am guessing for the most part these are just going to be requirements for clan techs and such, right?

Brutal Stance - Approved

Thousand Cuts Stance - Approved

Chakra Residue Control - Approved

[Rakirian]

Correct, they were at start also a skill path needed for the "Spirit" thing but now it's 100% for Jutsu/other skills requirement.

Editted and fixed.

Cost: +3 -MUST be taken at character creation of any Sukaikon clan member-

What about 'Subtle Elements'? Would that allow a character with this hindering trait to gain access to the other elements?

Rank 1: Enables the user to use stances and to extend their chakra from their hands and feet for a long duration of time. Stances can now be activated/deactivated in Main phase.

Would the JP reduction stack with other JP reducing skills?

Rank 2: Chakra extension can now also extend from arms, legs and also for a short time around the users body. Stances can now be activated/deactivated in Setup or Main phase.

-Lv 5 requirement-

-1

Make this a 'Level 10 Requirement', as it just seems to flow into the next rank better. Level 5 is a long way from Chuunin, whereas Level 10 is only a mere 15 level away.

Rank 3: Chakra extension may now be able over the entire body for a long duration of time. Stances can now be activated/deactivated in Response, Setup or Main phase.

Seems fine.

Brutal Stance

Brutal Stance is one of the Sukaikon clans fighting styles which use the potential of their bloodline: Junreiketsu to cause as much damage possible to their enemy. By letting the chakra form around the users closed fist, the chakra charge then drives into the enemy as the fist connects. Forcing its way through the body in a uncontrolled fashion, ripping and tearing through it until it comes straight out the other side of the enemy. This stance has by that fact been named by the best way of describing the way it's used with one word: Brutal.

-This stance must be activated to be able to use any Brutal Stance jutsu's-

Rank 1: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 10 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 10. This adds after modifier calculation.

-Must have Rank 1 in Junreiketsu Mastery-

Rank 2: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 20 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 20. This adds after modifier calculation. The user can also use any of the previous Brutal Stance rank instead as a damage increase ex: 10.

-Lv 10 requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 1)-

-Jounin rank requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 3)-

-2

Rank 5: When user is in Brutal Stance, he/she may add 160 chakra to their cost factor of any basic attack or Brutal Stance jutsu, to increase damage by 160. This adds after modifier calculation. The user can also use any of the previous Brutal Stance rank as a damage increase ex: 10, 20, 40 & 80.

-Senin/Kage rank requirement and the previous Brutal Stance skill (Rank 4)-

-2

So does each rank pretty much stack with the one(s) before it (meaning you can still use the previous rank(s) on top of the new one)?

Thousand Cuts Stance

Thousand Cuts is aptly named, though the stance does not involve blades. By creating chakra around their hands, the user will strike with hands open as if they were in fact blades. With cutting and stabbing motions, the chakra would then "invade" the enemy when made contact. Once inside, the chakra would adapt itself to the new host and expand in the area they were placed on, causing tension and stiffness around the area making movement more and more difficult for the enemy.

When can this stance be activated/deactivated specifically?

Total amount of Speed the enemy can be lowered by Rank during battle (the effect will go away after the battle has ended):

Genin: 60

Chuunin: 120

Jounin: 240

Senin/Kage: 480

-The total amount will stop increasing once at their maximum cap-

-This effect can be "cured"/changed back if Release Chakra skill is used on target by a Medical Shinobi of the same rank of the user that did the Thousand Cuts attack and higher rank-

-The effect will automaticly start change back itself by the double amount of the current Thousand Cuts rank(ex: Rank 3 = +40 x2) every other turn unless Thousand Cuts jutsu connects again.-

Meaning the effect will decrease by double the inflicted amount unless the user connects with another attack while in that stance?

The effect will be changed back by double the amount of the current rank of the Thousand Cuts

I think that's the same line as the one above it.

-This stance must be activated to be able to use any Thousand Cuts Stance jutsu's-

Rank 1: Thousand Cuts jutsu's will now cause the target to stiffen up if hit. Target will be slowed down by -5 speed each time they get hit from a Thousand Cuts Stance jutsu. The total amount will continue to stack until reached Rank cap. It does not stack with previous rank.

-Must have Rank 1 in Junreiketsu Mastery-

-1

This effect only applies to 'Thousand Cut' techniques? Not basic attacks performed while in this stance, or any other style or type of Taijutsu techniques, correct?

Rank 2: Thousand Cuts jutsu's will now cause the target to stiffen up if hit. Target will be slowed down by -10 speed each time they get hit from a Thousand Cuts Stance jutsu. The total amount will continue to stack until reached Rank cap. It does not stack with previous rank.

Rank 4: Thousand Cuts jutsu's will now cause the target to stiffen up if hit. Target will be slowed down by -40 speed each time they get hit from a Thousand Cuts Stance jutsu. The total amount will continue to stack until reached Rank cap. It does not stack with previous rank.

Aside from my various comments above, these all seem okay.

Chakra Residue Control

After using techniques requiring chakra, there is always some form of residue after it. However in most cases the chakra is useless and dissapears shorty after. The Sukaikon clans more stronger chakra manages to remain longer as a residue after a technique due it's strong adaptive nature after decades of evolution. This enables the Sukaikon clan members to actually take use of their chakra residue in the forms of gathering it to perform more special "suprise" techniques.

Rank 1: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 5% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 1-

-1

I really like this idea. I see a lot of potential behind it. Good job.

Rank 2: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 10% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 2-

-1

Rank 3: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 15% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 3-

-2

Rank 4: After any Sukaikon clan technique which uses any chakra, 20% of the techniques chakra cost amount will gather together to a side pool as useable chakra residue. This chakra pool can only be used by special skills/techniques that specify that they use the chakra residue pool.

-Requires Chakra Residue Control Rank 3 and be lv 40-

-2

I don't really think the above two ranks need to have increase in SP cost. -1 for each should work just fine.

Chakra Residue Control Technique example:

Name: Yon kyuuzou chuuseki (Four pillar surge trap)

Type: Dynamic Trap [Ninjutsu] (Sukaikon Clan jutsu)

Rank: Gennin

Conditions: Need atleast 30 chakra cost paid from Chakra Residue.

Cost: 60

Damage: 60

Effects: n/a

Description: By using the chakra residue around the battlefield/and adding more chakra if needed, the Sukaikon member will mold the chakra into four bright blue coloured pillars that forms around the opponent. In a bright flash, the four pillars will explode with force into the center of the four pillars where the opponent stands.

- Fixed the duplicated paragraph......awekward...-

- Added in that you cannot have any Subtle Elements skills. -

- Hmmm...well haven't really thought of it like that since this specific add is only directed to Sukaikon clan based jutsu's. If it deems necessary to add in that no other JP reduction skills may be taken then I will add that in. -

- Changed Junreiketsu Mastery Rank 2 from lv 5 to lv 10 req. -

- Brutal Stance question: Yes, can choose which number to add depending which ranks you have. meaning if I have rank 3, I can choose to use the add damage from either rank 1, 2 or 3. Gicing the skill some choices/flexability to the user when in combat. -

- Thousand Cuts question Nr 1: The stance activation/deactivation is the same as the Brutal stance. The options when it can be activated/deactivated is determind depending on what Junreiketsu Mastery rank the user has. -

- Thousand Cuts question Nr 2: Correct.

Example: User is in thousand cuts stance. In turn 1 he uses a thousand cuts jutsu and hits the target (-40 speed). Turn 2 he uses another Thousand Cuts jutsu and hits, the amount of speed reduced is now stacked with each other (-80 speed). Turn 3 the user uses yet another Thousand cuts jutsu and hits, the amount stacks yet again (-120 speed). Turn 4 the user changes to Brutal stance and attacks, the speed reduction remains the same for that turn (-120 speed). Turn 5 he continues using Brutal stance however the speed reduction will now be change back by the amount 40*2 = 80. 120-80 = 40 speed reduction is now in affect.

However if the user would had changed back to Thousand cuts stance and connected a hit on turn 5, he would had stopped the countdown for changing back the reduction speed effect. I hope that gives some more insight on how it works. -

- Thousand cuts question Nr 3: About Thousand cuts only work with Thousand cuts jutsu's. Thats correct but I have however been thinking of adding that effect to basic attacks also. But this I planned on perhaps adding as a extra Clan skill later on. But thats something that can be talked about at that date when that skill is/if waiting for reveiw/approval hehe. -

- Changed the SP cost of rank 3 & 4 in Chakra residue control to -1 instead of -2. -

Just add that no other JP reducing skills can be -used- in conjunction with that skill/ability. That way, you can still have other JP reducing skills, they just won't apply to clan related tech's.

Is it possible to use more than one rank in a single turn?

- Thousand Cuts question Nr 1: The stance activation/deactivation is the same as the Brutal stance. The options when it can be activated/deactivated is determind depending on what Junreiketsu Mastery rank the user has. -

Ah, I got ya. Missed that part. Makes perfect sense now.

- Thousand Cuts question Nr 2: Correct.

Turn 2 he uses another Thousand Cuts jutsu and hits, the amount of speed reduced is now stacked with each other (-80 speed).

Yep, looks good.

Fair enough. Sounds good.

Good, good.
