Items?

Items are cool! But I don't know if we need anything..?

I know that Cappy Lulu and Cappy Zu before her said if anyone had donations, send TO DA MULE.

~thunderous voice of doom comes from clouds~

But I don't know how the guild vault is doing lol~ heart

Well Ronin, methinks you should get some more info on this cheating eye (I don't watch the anime....actually I fell behind and never caught up, maybe I should do that someday!) and then come up with the guidelines for a clan or the character itself!

^________^
Ah I see, thank you for the aid! As for the cheating eye, I refer to it as thus simply because it's nearly dragonball-esque in it's creation. The main characters there needed something bigger to showcase their ridiculous gains in training, so newer, perhaps even more ridiculous things were created. As for the eye, so far the info that Kishimoto supposedly revealed is that it can see more faster and with greater clarity at up to three times normal human sight. Which is in addition to the ability to use all the elements as well as quickly copying and then mastering techniques. Also not mentioning one of the villains using it to take over 6 lively bodies to do his dirty work . With all that in mind though, I thought of one way to balance the scales in the form of the gift that keeps on giving (Experience Penalties). I still may wait until more information bubbles up from the series however.

Hey!

One of our members came up with a clan with similar traits! Like a sniper-esque eye thing, where they are hired as spies and stuff, photographic memories, etc. They have drawbacks, yes, but it's pretty much the same general idea. ^^

I think you should talk to Katz, I think it was him that came up with it! Katz the Nine Lives...or Katz of the Nine Lives? I don't remember off the top of my head but I'll tell him to come post if it was him!
I see, thank you once again! I always could use a little more insight if nothing else comes of it.
Amazing how two people came up with almost exactly the same name for the eye lol. I'm still only up to about as far as the show in Naruto and just beginning Shippudden in the manga, but a friend told me about the Rinnegan and I called it a gameshark code. I don't know too much about it or where the series is going from there (don't spoil it for me). I didn't decide to try makign the Rinnegan for the guild, because I didn't know more about it and I think the guild was around before it started so that just may make conflicts. There was also the fact that its powers would be troublesome to balance out.

The clan I was thinking of though is one with a sniper like eye. There limit does not focus on attacking jutsu, but rather support, mainly escape techniques and seeing from far off distances for spying. If you're interested in helping me I don't mind. I'll send you what I have so far. Just pm me.

Also how is it looking so far Maya? I do have a picture of the what the eye should look like, I just didn't send it as yet because I wasn't too sure on the progress.

Ohh and yes to all who stop by wondering whether to join. You should. Clans, journals, artists, Naruto. We have it all here. Be one of the founding fathers (or mothers) of a clan or just a strong shinobi and watch the world of Naruto be built around you.
Well, you know what they say about great minds! (Though it may be a bit narcissistic of me to say so of myself). Pleased to make your acquaintance and I promise not to ruin any of it! The Rin'negan is like an unpleasant mix of the Sharingan and Byakugan with a hefty dose of cheese to say the least.

Hawk vision eyes eh? Sounds interesting and it certainly holds potential. I've tended to find myself looking for the close-range kill, but I'd be glad to offer any thoughts such as they are.

Zu-kun

Your chibi's are getting cuter and more unique every time, Lu. ^^ To answer your question from PM's, Rin, I check the recruitment thread every day I log on.
I see, I see. Nifty. Oh... probabaly the oddest question ever but... is the red nose thing your favorite item? No matter what, your avi always has it on. whee

How is everyone else doing, by the way?
At the expense of answering a question with which I have a loose claim to being part of the collectively addressed, surprisingly good. Thank you for asking, and you?

Lol, no problem. No matter who the person is, I like to know their well being. 3nodding
Ah! Glad I could be of some service then!

End of semester coursework slowing down the guild scene? Seasonal slowdowns a norm?
narotards...

Ninja = assassin, sneaky, take out a target and gtfo they don't even battle just a quick SHAA!! and their target's all *ded*, nobody knows how the hell that guy died, nobody saw who did it

Naruto = tourtament arena, bright orange (not sneaky), they upfront battle, a whole school full of retarded people know who's won and lost battles that shouldn't have happened...

CLERAFOCATIONS

i hate it when giant octopuses attack, grabbin' helecopters, roaring, and smashing things...that's dangerous, loud...but cool looking... domokun

Heh. When I first joined Gaia, Baylu didn't want me looking like a noob, so she gave me a lot of gold to dress up my avi. She requested that I always wear the clown nose as a way to repay her.

Clarifications from someone who doesn't seem to understand the concept of the guild...

I assure you, no one wears bright orange. Or battles in front of a school. Do we even have a tournament arena...? No..no just the sparring rings and the training grounds...how odd, that we don't fit that "Narotard" label, yet it's been given. I think it's "Narutard" anyhow, but regardless.

Yes, it's true that some ninja are assassins - so are mercenaries. But then, ninjas can be mercs - and that requires not so much stealth as wit and at least some sort of power. People aren't born ninja after all.

According to Wikipedia (and though I hate to reference it, most naive people understand it best),
Quote:
In the history of Japan, a ninja (忍者, ninja?) was someone specially trained in a variety of unorthodox arts of war. The methods used by ninja included assassination, espionage, and a variety of martial arts.

In the Japanese culture, they were usually trained for dangerous missions.[citation needed]Their exact origins are still unknown. Their roles may have included sabotage, espionage, scouting and assassination missions as a way to destabilize and cause social chaos in enemy territory or against an opposing ruler, perhaps in the service of their feudal rulers (daimyo, shogun), or an underground ninja organization waging guerilla warfare


Assassins, spies, saboteurs - it's a general rule not to generalize, isn't it? Ninja aren't simply assassins, they're artists - their art is woven within the many arts of war. Now, isn't there a whole book on that?

Our shinobi are well trained and well versed in what they do - though some specialize in their specific strengths. Please refrain from judging us.


On another join ... so THAT'S the deal with the nose lol! heart
Miss, he's simply trying to get your goat. I'd surmise that account was specifically made to troll.

As for ninja! That's leads to my favorite subject: Samurai. The term ninja is a post-WWII contraption, in reality a shinobi (or kunuoichi, using the correct terms) was anyone who practiced the art of concealment and engaged in covert military operations. Taken in that sense it could be applied to any number of people, making it important to note that samurai could, can and were shinobi as well. I'll keep my leash short here, but of the four roles wikipedia has attributed to ninja, the last (assassination) has not seen a single successful recorded assassination in history. Couple close calls, but most assassinations were a bit simpler then that. Oda Nobunaga? Assassinated by one of his generals.
