Description: ___[ Alterations ] ___ - Slight fixes to the Mixed Blood discipline. The discipline was missing stipulations that one may not utilize it with a bloodline that is an elemental combination clan, and that to utilize a doujutsu it must come from one's primary bloodline. Apologies for the delay in this fix.
Description: ___[ Bloodline ] ___ - I have completed the Hyuuga update. Free respecs if you hate it, or for the one spot open to switch to it.

Description: ___[ Changelog ]
Changelog
Changed:
Classes: Revamped all disciplines, slightly rebalanced Jutsu slots with the addition of Augment slots. Demons: Changed how demonic power is accessed/handled, slightly revamped the Jutsu. Missions: Changed how TP is handled and its associated missions. Traps: Reworked how they're created and activated to (hopefully) make them easier to use. Smithing & Jobs: Changed how Job slots are allocated and consumed, and how prerequisites work for advanced smithings. Expanded smithing's utility and rolled custom item creation into it. Rebalanced variable marbles to be more useful. Armor: Many changes, including some changes to make Tailoring more useful and a better explanation of how shields work. Kugutsu: Better defined how puppets are created and made it slightly less job title-intensive. Gave some variety to how Chakra Threads can be used. Summons: Changed how summons get Jutsu (you don't have to train them manually, don't worry). Diversified the elements for sage summons. Descriptive Ranks: Dropped the passive cap to 12 overall instead of 12 each. Taijutsu & Bukijutsu: General rewrites for some, reformatting for all. All got stances that temporarily increase the limit for passive Descriptive Ranks of a specified type. Learning techniques: Slight adjustments to make post requirements scale linearly. Character limits: Removed the numeric limit. Still can't do things with yourself. Personal Attributes: You can now freely retrain your personal attributes to change them without needing to resubmit your character entirely. In-character, this should be related to some significant change in a character's life, mental, or physical state. Approvals: Drastically scaled back the need for approvals. If you stick within certain guidelines, you can just create something and go rather than waiting on an approval mod. PA guide was revamped. Tamers: In addition to the changes to the class, pet dynamics have been changed. Activation sharing and Chakra/Stamina sharing are now baked in. Formless: Changed how the Mental styles work. Ninjutsu: Got rid of the guild/official description split. Reworked certain Jutsu to better play with each other and the new Augment system. Lists are alphabetized, with Augment techniques listed after the main body of techniques in a rank. Bloodlines: Reformatting galore (ugh)! Advanced elemental bloodlines now mesh with the new Formless Ninjutsu system. Some trainings were removed from certain bloodlines as a result (namely the "XX Soujuu [ XX Manipulation ]" ones, but not just them). Sage Mode: Gave it the first major upgrade in forever. It now actually includes Stamina. Fuuin: "It was a hot mess." ~ AandOE, 2019. Implants: Minor changes and rewording. Monsters & Creatures: More revealed info for everything. Noted incentives for creating things.
New:
Affinities: Added an elemental affinity subsystem to smithing. Summons: Behemoths! Also, custom summons! Quality: Smithing now has item quality! Higher-level smiths will be able to create things faster and/or better and/or with more effects than their peers. Blueprints: You can now make a blueprint when you create an item, letting you make it faster in the future. Civilians: Non-Shinobi characters. Less harshly regulated, but you can't do Shinobi things. You can also "retire" a character to civilian life. Augment Slots: Special slots that everyone gets. Can be used for a number of things, including Formless Ninjutsu and changing how your Jutsu work in collisions. Mission City: A new area for your characters to squad up and do missions in, if you want more stuff to do for special rewards. The missions here are mostly self-running. Added rogue-only "Interrupt Missions". Debut incoming. Treasures: A new addition to mining that lets you uncover extra-special goodies. Business License: Basically replaced the old system. Property: What it sounds like. Ties into the Business License system. Academy Rank: You want to be a wee bab, trying to learn the ways of the world? Now you can! Juin: Completely rewrote everything. Would include a quote from AandOE on this, but it contains some expletives. Special Titles: Added in secretary, squad/captain, and Kage regulations. Research: You can now research stuff. Neat. Tenseigan: Added.
Jutsu Changes
Notable Changes:
Removing techniques that are too similar to another unless there's a reason to keep both. Removing the "official description"/"guild description" split. I've got versions of these lists both with and without this adjustment up until B-Rank Doton. Augments are now listed with ranks in the format of: "Rank :: Augment". They have also been moved to the bottom of their respective lists and have a section labeled "Base Technique" that lists what technique they play off of. This latter change is to reduce redundancy in wording, as we can simply list an explanation for the augments elsewhere.
Current Patch Notes:
Doton:
Removed
Iwagakure: Shunshin no Jutsu [ Hidden Earth: Instantaneous Body Skill ] Doro Gaeshi [ Mud Overturn ] Ishi no Yari [ Stone Spear ] Doryuu Heki [ Earth Style Wall ] Sekkai Bunshin no Jutsu [ Rock Clone Technique ] Kekkai Doroudomu [ Clay Barrier Prison]
Altered
Ishi Yoroi no Ude [ Stone Bracers ]: Renamed "Ishi Yoroi no Tamaki". Sekkai Koutetsuban [ Stone Breast Plate ]: Turned into an augment of Ishi Yoroi no Ude and renamed to "Ishi Yoroi no Muneate". Sekkai Senbon Hada [ Stone Needle Skin ]: Reduced the defensive properties to C-Rank. Chikyuu no Myakuhaku [ Pulsating Earth ]: Changed how the debuff works slightly. It's now an indiscriminate AoE, so use wisely! Doton Katana no Jutsu [ Earth Element Sword ]: Name changed to Doton Katana [ Earth Element Sword ]. Changed into an augment of Doton Shuriken no Jutsu [ Stone Shuriken Skill ]. Domu [ Earthen Spear ]: Changed the bonus to making Hard Physical activations be treated as complex for its duration. Iwa no Yoroi [ Shield of Stone ]: Changed into an Augment of Ishi Yoroi no Tamaki [ Stone Bracers ]. Kuchiyose • Tsuiga no Jutsu [ Tracking Fang Technique ]: Name changed to Tsuiga no Jutsu [ Tracking Fang Technique ] and its mechanics were changed slightly. Kukan no Sekkai Senshi [ Body of the Stone Warrior ]: Name changed to Sekkai Senshi no Karada [ Body of the Stone Warrior ]. Its mechanics were changed. Sekkai Bunshin: Shinogeru Inshou [ Stone Clone: Protective Seal ]: Name changed to Shinogeru Sekkai Inshou [ Protective Stone Seal ]. Sekkai Keibou [ Stone Guard Creation ]: Gave it slightly more autonomy but removed the ability to repair it. Suna no Muya [ Cocoon of Sand ]: Renamed to Suna no Mayu [ Cocoon of Sand ], correcting an ages-old typo. Turned into an Augment of Suna no Tate [ Shield of Sand ], reflecting a change in classification on the wiki. Akatsuchi's Rock Golem: Changed to X-Rank. Kyouka Jutsu [ Hardening Technique ]: Changed the speed decrease to "supremely" instead of "2 ranks". Changed the increase in strength and fortitude to a defensive buff and a supreme increase in strength for formless. Iwane Wooru [ Rock Wall ]: Changed to a proper X-Rank technique that starts scaling at C-Rank. Augment status made clear. Choukeijuugan no Jutsu [ Ultra Light Weight Rock Technique ]: Minor clarifications on costs and rank limits. Added in effects for use on people. Choukajuugan no Jutsu [ Ultra Added Weight Rock Technique ]: Switched to being based off of Kajuugan instead of Keijuugan. Added in effects for use on people. Iwa no Doomu [ Earth Dome ]: Takes a post to crumble after it's been destroyed. Iwa Guntai Tate [ Rock Army Shield ]: Changed how plate creation works and adjusted durability. It now creates 2 B-Rank plates, with the user able to create more by paying more. Size adjusted downward drastically. Kyouzamashi [ Complete Body Vanish Kill Joy ]: Renamed to Dosou [ Burial ] and given effects more in line with the Doton Aesthetic (TM). Bakuha no Jutsu [ Dragon Explosion Technique ]: Renamed "Ryuu Bakuha no Jutsu [ Dragon Explosion Technique ]" to have the "Dragon" part of the name represented somewhere in the Japanese (This could change later if I feel like actually sussing out a good translation). Better defined movement and offensive capabilities. Chikyū-jō no jigoku [ Hell on Earth ]: The transition to Yomi Numa isn't automatic, but something that can be done at any time without consuming an extra activation if the user knows that technique. That effect is lost if the user doesn't know it. To compensate for this, the damage of the spears is defined at A-Rank rather than S. Kajuugan [ Weighted Rock Technique ]: Gave it an alternate usage mode that doesn't petrify things. Kaido Shoukutsu [ Open Earth Rising Excavation ]: Cost is split among all the users. Sekkai Daichi Souzou [ Stone Castle Creation ]: Adjusted trap creation and activation guidelines. It should be a trapper's dream home now. Sekkai Suke [ Stone Shell ]: Adjustments made to make it work like Iwa Guntai Tate [ Rock Army Shield ], since that's its parent technique. Greatly shrank the size of created domes, but allowed them to be added together. Shukaku no Tate [ Shield of Shukaku ]: Made the repair cost match the cost of damage done. Tsuchi Kairou [ Earth Corridor ]: Adjusted the bonus from Yomi's EMEC to not use descriptives. Tsunami no Jutsu [ Tsunami Technique ]: Gave it a defined range, then clarified that stuff can still continue to flow past that range, but without the force created by the initial blast. Uitenpen [ Impermanence ]: Made changes to more properly reflect its partial-Kuchiyose status. Traps and Genjutsu are still capped at C-Rank. Changes can be negated by Kuchiyose- or Doton-cancellation, but after 10 posts or if the original medium is destroyed, they become permanent. Yama Souken [ Mountain Creation ]: Changed the timings a bit (removed delay mostly) and changed the height/depth from 1000' to 1 km. Iwa Finaru [ Rock Finale ]: Clarified explosion damage in terms of a flat amount per post, less anything dodged or defended.
Gufuu Suika no Jutsu [ Typhoon Water Vortex Technique ]: It's just Korabo, even in universe. Gama Teppou [ Toad Gun ]: Again, just a Korabo.
Altered
Kaze Fuuchuufuyuu [ Wind Levitation ]: Removed ambiguous scaling of the lift speed. Slightly increased weight limit and gave it a defined duration. Tobidougu Soujuu no Jutsu [ Projectile Control Technique ]: Turned X-Rank and limited its defense to techniques lower than your body rank. Boufuu Kyuuzou [ Gale Surge ]: Removed cooldown. Fūton: Shinkūjin [ Wind Release: Vacuum Blade ]: Increased duration to two posts. Renamed to Shinkuujin [ Vacuum Blade ]. Tobidougu Henshin Hitofuki [ Projectile Deflection Blast ]: Limited usage rank to your body rank. Kamaitachi no Jutsu [ Slashing Wind Skill ]: Minor tweaks to how it works. Reworded power/speed tradeoff. Made it X-Rank. Happa Shinkuutai [ Bursting Air Pockets ]: Gave it a more definite effect and made it X-Rank. Kaze no Bouseki Tate [ Spinning Shield of Winds ]: Made it X-Rank so it's relevant. Adjusted the reflective capabilities to affect things up to one rank lower instead of higher. Fuuton: Shunshin no Jutsu [ Wind Release: Instant Movement Technique ]: Made into an augment of regular Shunshin. Kaiten Shuriken [ Rotating Shuriken ]: Changed the EMEC bonus. Goukuuhou [ Great Air Cannon ]: Changed how strong the spheres are and how many there are. E-Rank cost no longer gets you a C-Rank sphere. Furyuu no Jutsu [ Wind Dragon Technique ]: It scales now and is treated like a clone for purposes of interacting with things like Bunshin Houin. Kaze no Yaiba [ Sword of Wind ]: Now ignores a moderate fortitude increase. Kaze no Yoroi [ Armor of Wind ]: People can pass through just fine. Tatsumaki Wana [ Tornado Trap ]: Reduced cooldown to 1 post. Teikiatsu & Koukiatsu no Jutsu [ Low & High Air Pressure Techniques ]: Made them share a slot. Reppuushou [ Gale Wind Palm ]: Only a moderate increase to thrown weapons' strength. Zankyokukuuha [ Extreme Decapitating Air Waves ]: Turned into an augment of Zankuuha. Kamikaze [ Hair Wind ]: Changed the bonus so it auto-Korabos under the influence of EMEC. Daikamaitachi [ Great Cutting Whirlwind ]: Made it X-Rank. Hooray for defense? Furyuuchou Ken [ Flowing Wind Fist ]: Lasts a full post now instead of one strike. Also gave it an actual bonus instead of just fist size. Kirikiri no Mai [ Execution Whirl ]: Gave it a boost if an actual weasel is used, letting it be X-Rank in that case. Weasel lovers rejoice! Kyoushu no Tokkan [ Assassin’s Rush ]: Changed it to an augment of Suiyaku Kaze, since they're basically the same thing but one's bigger. Kazegaeshi [ Wind Return ]: Now stronger against wind! Nadeshiko-Ryuu techniques: Share a slot. Kami Oroshi [ Godly Wind from the Mountains ]: EMEC bonus changed. Kazekiri [ Wind Cutter ]: Gets a one rank bonus from being used alongside Otoshi Buta and Shichuu Shibari. Mugen Sajin Daitoppa [ Infinite Dust Great Breakthrough ]: Now an augment of Daitoppa and can be maintained, albeit at a cost. Tandokuhikou [ Solo Flight ]: Movement rules added, since it didn't make much sense otherwise. Jousoukiryuu [ Currents ]: Can fill a sensory jutsu slot! Shintou [ Osmosis ]: No longer requires sensory or sage. Fuuton Rasengan: Added the "Fuuton" back in for clarity. Unlike what you might expect, this does not become an augment. Too much effort goes into it, and plus, there's like 500 different types of Rasengan anyway. Not all of them get to be augments or everyone and their mother would learn it for the free encyclopedia of chucking chakra balls at things. Rasengan techniques: Made some of them into augments. There are too many of these for anyone's good. Kyojin Taka Bakuha [ Giant Falcon Blast ]: "Kyojin" changed to "Kyodai". "Kyojin" is a noun while "Kyodai" is an adjective. Hirogari Tei Ihen [ Spreading Air Disaster ]: Defined its size. Sansai no Jutsu [ That "calamities" one ]: Generalized to more than just the three "disasters". Kanketsusen Souzou [ Geyser Creation ]: Made it an air vent that'll also happen to shoot steam if you're in an area suited for it. This is Fuuton, no Suiton or Doton.
Added
Ryouki [ Cool Air ] Kaze no Hochou [ Wind's Step ]
Katon:
Removed
Kita no Jutsu [ Aerial Explosion Technique ]: It's just a slightly stronger version of Kasumi Enbu that's now entirely irrelevant. Gamayu Endan [ Toad Oil Fireball ]: Just standard Korabo. Shoukyaku [ Incineration ]: Basically identical to Kaseiken.
Altered
Kasumi Enbu no Jutsu [ Mist Waltz Technique ]: Made it so it stacks when used indoors, but bypasses any resistances the user has to their own fire. Shuriken no Jutsu [ Shuriken Technique ]: Increased duration ever so slightly to 2 posts. Nenshou Ha: Ichi [ Burning Cinder: One ]: Removed the "Ichi/One" part of the name, since the rest of the series was removed at some point. Have a feeling that the rest of the series could be covered by Formless Ninjutsu anyway. Hi Shinten no Jutsu [ Flame Spread Technique ]: Turned into an augment of Shuriken no Jutsu. Lasts only 1 post but affects up to medium weapons. Yojin Bunshin no Jutsu [ Ember Clone Technique ]: The explosion no longer deals C-Rank damage. Hoteri Ougigata no Jutsu [ Flash Fan Technique ]: It used to basically say "this does no damage". Now it says that AND it prevents people from rehydrating for one post. Neat! Housenka no Jutsu [ Mythical Fire Flower Technique ]: Flames and projectiles are now treated separately when dealing with defenses. Kaen Senpuu [ Flame Whirlwind ]: Now X-Rank! Ryuuka no Jutsu [ Dragon Fire Technique ]: Changed upkeep scheme slightly and stipulated that the user has to remain still for that bonus. Shouidan no Jutsu [ Incendiary Technique ]: Now an augment of Ryuuka, as the description suggests. Decreased number of blobs to 4 to make it easier to calculate the actual damage caused by each. Hidoko no Jutsu [ Bed of Fire Technique ]: Now weak to smothering Doton techniques to make up for a lack of weakness to water. Taika no Jutsu [ Fireproof Technique ]: Blocks both damage and dehydration as an X-Rank technique. Kyuuka no Jutsu [ Flame Sphere Technique ]: Makes the user more susceptible to frostbite after use. Nenshou Tosshin [ Burning Rush ]: Now an augment of Kyuuka, as the description suggested. Also made it give bonuses to only fortitude as opposed to a bunch of stuff. Benjigumo [ Crimson Earth Spider ]: Acts like a really big Bunshin now. Housenka Tsumabeni no Jutsu [ Mythical Fire Phoenix Nails Red Technique ]: Now an augment of Housenka instead of Shuriken. Karyuudan [ Fire Dragon Projectile ]: No longer requires Doryuudan. Generalized to be applicable to all projectile Ninjutsu, with which it automatically gets the effects of Korabo. Kumoryuu Kaengiri [ Cloud Style Flame Slash ]: Generalized to non-swords. Oh, and it's also an augment of Hi Shinten, which is itself an augment of Shuriken. Hooray for learning trees? Endan [ Fireball ]: Oh hey, the wiki says it's based on oil. Guess it isn't so generic after all, eh? If you're reading this, message me and all your characters get 500 Ryou. Added in oil effects (i.e. weak to Doton, not Suiton). Karyuu Endan [ Fire Dragon Flame Projectile ]: Gave it two modes based on the wiki: a mobile dragon mode and a high power mode. The former is slightly weaker but more maneuverable. Yakeshinu Omoi [ Burnt Memories ]: Renamed Kurokoge Omoi [ Burnt Black Memories ]. "Yakeshinu" means "To be burned to death" and didn't really fit a) grammatically and b) thematically, since the person's already dead. Ketatamashii Makai [ Piercing Hell Strike ]: Name changed to Makai Dageki [ Hell Strike ]. Removed upkeep and defined the dehydration. Gouka Hataka no Jutsu [ Hellfire Clap ]: Reduced the diameter. Also made it X-Rank. Kasairyuu [ Blaze Eruption ]: Halved the radius. Kenrou Kaken [ Heavenly Prison Fire Sword ]: Renamed to Kenrou Katou. Moushou Kaseiken [ Fierce Flame Fist ]: Now an augment of Kaseiken. Now it'll eat you if you don't let it out onto something. Onidourou: Removed the "Katon" in the name. Defined the speed of the homing part and gave it a maximum duration. Also adjusted the projectiles down to 8 and made it so it can't be used again while there are still some remaining, lest we end up with an endless homing projectile spam. Shinhidora no Jutsu [ True Hydra Technique ]: More Bunshin-like now, like Benjigumo. Tenrou [ Heavenly Prison ]: Split into an S-Rank and an S+Rank, rather than having that be the case in the description only. See those Jutsu for further details. Also removed the "Katon" in the name.

Description: ___[ Changelog, cont. ]
Changelog, cont.
Raiton:
Removed
Shina no Sesshoku [ Shina's Touch ]: Super medical powers activate! Raiden no Moui [ Raiden's Fury ]: Kirin.
Altered
Touei no Jutsu [ Flickering Light Technique ]: Removed increased costs and the blindness aspect. Raikou Bunshin [ Lightning Clone Technique ]: Removed weirdness with its Taijutsu. Ichijou no Kumo no Jutsu [ Cloud Wisp Technique ]: No longer completely swallows your consciousness, even if it takes over your senses. Raikou Henge no Jutsu [ Lightning Transformation Technique ]: Removed paralysis effect on people struck. Added a cooldown of 1 post. Nagare Tensou no Jutsu [ Current Transfer Technique ]: Simplified the description greatly. Jibashiri [ Earth Flash ]: Added a mechanic for fighting through the paralysis. Yaiba no Jutsu [ Blade Technique ]: Increased sustain cost to the technique's full cost per post. This blade makes it so your passive strength changes don't do anything, but the enemy's passive fortitude changes also don't do anything. Raikou Kousen no Jutsu [ Lightning Beam Technique ]: Gave it the same paralytic effect as Jibashiri. Kumo no Tate [ Cloud Shield ]: Now X-Rank. Hiraishin [ Sparking Electric Needle ]: (No, not that one.) More paralyzing goodness. Dendou Hebi no Jutsu [ Electric Snake Technique ]: Clarified damage amounts. No, you're not doing B-Rank damage every post. Junsei Raikou Kunai no Jutsu [ Pure Lightning Kunai Technique ]: Now treated as complex against defenses, but bypasses armor. Dendou Kaitengi no Jutsu [ Electric Gyroscope Technique ]: Added a duration and upkeep cost. Raikou no Yobigoe no Jutsu [ Call of Lightning Technique ]: Drastically shortened the duration and gave it an activation delay of one post. Lightning bolts deal C-Rank damage, are A-Rank to evade, and ignore fortitude bonuses. The user also does not get passive resistances from Electrical Resistance Training. Also now requires clouds be present, since this isn't Ranton. Dendou Enmu no Jutsu [ Electric Fog Technique ]: Basically scrapped the entire thing. Now has a really weak, short-range use outside of fog now, since I've made it so this technique doesn't create fog. Again, not Ranton. Used inside fog, the technique's full strength gets conducted out to everyone in the fog. Yes, everyone. Even those nasty mosquitos. Even you. ("KAGES HATE HIM! With this one simple trick, shock all your enemies..." Now if only pop-ups existed, I could plaster that everywhere...) Raikyuu [ Lightning Ball ]: There were two copies of this technique in the list for some reason. Axed one of them. Also gave it a nifty bonus against evasion when being used with Kiri's Seven Swords "Kiba", since that's where it comes from. Raigeki no Yoroi [ Lightning Strike Armor ]: Upkeep not necessary if you've got Kiri's Seven Swords "Kiba", but it ends if one or both of the swords leaves your hands for even a split second. Hold on tight, kiddos! Rairyuu no Tatsumaki [ Lightning Dragon Tornado ]: Actually specified its duration, since that wasn't present before. Also doesn't require upkeep if you've got "Kiba". Kakashi's Lightning Wolf Technique [ Unnamed ]: Renamed to simply "Lightning Wolf Technique". Clarified that the wolf only lasts for the length of one attack. Raiton Kage Bunshin no Jutsu [ Lightning Element Shadow Clone Technique ]: Removed scaling effects. Chidori [ Thousand Birds ]: Significantly simplified the description. Like Rasengan, this has so many spinoffs that most of them won't be augments just for balance's sake. The ones that are the most logical extensions of it will be, but others won't. Chidori Nagashi [ Thousand Birds Current ]: Now an augment of Chidori. Using it on a weapon makes attacks with it spiritual and Raiton for 4 posts. Added a paralysis effect on both usage methods. Chidori Senbon [ Thousand Birds Needles ]: Now ignore up to moderate fortitude increases. Chidori Eisou [ Thousand Birds Sharp Spear ]: Now an augment of Chidori. Gave it range and paralysis. Rensa Raikou no Jutsu [ Chain Lightning Technique ]: Removed the clone clause. Seidenki no Chacha [ Static Disruption ]: I understand that signals in the body are electricity, but this is getting really, REALLY close to just being a medical technique. Almost removed it for precisely that reason. As a compromise, I decided to make it able to fill a medical slot for those that have 'em. Inadzuma [ Clap of Lightning ]: No longer requires someone be dead, but has a 2 post charge time in battle. Basically, a charge time for the death slap. Ikadzuchi [ Thunderous Applause ]: Was actually just a better version of a medical technique, so I axed all of its effects completely. Now it's an AoE paralysis effect around the user. Seidenki no Myakuryaku [ Static Connection ]: I actually like this one. Probably one of the best "I steal your crap" techniques. Doesn't mean I didn't give it an abort condition (use Raiton above C-Rank and it auto-ends), a duration (2 posts), and a maintenance cost (C-Rank every post thereafter). Toruneedo Raitoningu [ Tornado Lightning ]: Gave it a range. Raiton no Yoroi [ Lightning Armor ]: Cut down the DR bonuses to only speed and reflexes. No longer has variable rank. Shichuu Shibari [ Four Pillar Binding ]: Gave it a paralysis effect that gets better when paired with Kazekiri and Otoshi Buta. Also now requires an upkeep cost. Kirin [ Definitely not Kirin ]: Now eats all the opponent's uses of Kawarimi and Shunshin if they use them to dodge it. Still takes three posts to "charge" (badum-tiss!). Raikiri [ Lightning Edge ]: Gave it a slight AoE centered around the hand so that it isn't just a marginally better Chidori. Also consumes a slot if you know any of Chidori's other augments. Kouten no Saiketsu [ Heaven's Judgment ]: Defined the size of the explosion.
Added
Raikou no Hochou [ Lightning's Step ]
Suiton:
Removed
Gufuu Suika no Jutsu [ Typhoon Water Vortex Technique ]: Just Korabo. Doriru Suiyari no Jutsu [ Drilling Water Spears ]: It's just Suigadan. Gama Teppou [ Toad Bullet ]: Korabo. Gekiryuu Chikara [ Raging River Force ]: Folded into Suise no Jutsu, which its description referenced it being an upgrade of. Shabondama no Ninjutsu [ Soap Bubble Ninjutsu ]: Now an alteration style.
Altered
Mizu Soujuu [ Water Manipulation ]: Got rid of a lot of the ambiguous language and removed the reference to formless manipulation, which isn't a thing right now. Uo Tsuba [ Fish Spit ]: Capped the activation drain. Isonagi no Jutsu [ Beach Crab ]: +1 rank to escape if used on land, -1 rank to escape if used in the water. Mizu Tate no Jutsu [ Water Shield Technique ]: Removed references to formless manipulation. Kiri Shikaku no Jutsu [ Mist Vision Technique ]: It used to say both that it was passive and that it activates. Now it works along the lines of Suimenka no Kisoku. Mizu Kagami no Jutsu [ Water Mirror Technique ]: Renamed to Mizu Henshou no Jutsu [ Water Reflection Technique ] because a later technique had roughly the same name. Mizu Kamikiri [ Rising Water Cutter ]: Now X-Rank. Suihashu [ Water Wave Hand ]: Causes weaker techniques used in its stream to be nonlethal. Aiming with a hose pointed at your face is tough. Suiun Suishi no Jutsu [ Water Transport Dispatch Formation Technique ]: The Water (blah blah blah) Technique is now super good against fire. Hooray for firefighters! Taihoudan [ Large Projectile ]: This creatively named technique is now basically invisible to those outside of the water if it's launched underwater. That is, until it's no longer underwater. Hooray for fishpeople? Mizuame Nabara [ Starch Syrup Capture Field ]: Now as sticky as you want with its X-Rank! Harass your opponents today! Houmatsu Rappa [ Violent Bubble Wave ]: Wash away oil and anything special your opponent's Katon is doing! Mizu no Tatsumaki [ Tornado of Water ]: Gave it a size. Mizurappa [ Violent Water Wave ]: Actually canonically X-Rank, according to the wiki. Suirou no Jutsu [ Water Prison Technique ]: Gave it some extra spice along the lines of what's been shown. Defensive uses, no hand seals inside, water clones becoming the prison, etc. Deido Tama [ Mud Ball ]: This is Doton. It's actually weakened by Suiton. I'm moving it there. Mizu no Muchi [ Whip of Water ]: Removed yet another reference to formless Ninjutsu. You can still whip the crap out of little kids, as the technique so elegantly states. (I got a chuckle out of that when I saw it.) Suikusari no Jutsu [ Water Chains Technique ]: Changed the name to Mizugusari. Might as well go with the flow. Gave it an immobilization ability and a special break condition for physical attacks. Mizutamari Yusuo no Jutsu [ Water Puddle Transportation Technique ]: Now doesn't leave a chakra trail and has a max range of 2km. Shokushu Rendan Kyouran [ Tentacle Barrage Fury ]: Clarified that any Chakra given to the tentacles can be used for physical attacks. Tentacles don't usually make hand seals, after all. Mizukaisou Bunshin no Jutsu [ Water Reflection Clone Technique ]: Renamed to Mizukagami no Jutsu [ Water Mirror Technique ] and retooled it to make a clone of whoever's reflected in a water mirror. No passives or customs, though. Daibakuryuu no Jutsu [ Great Exploding Current ]: Got rid of the extra drain for affecting multiple people. Replaced it with a lower cost to avoid being sucked under after a certain distance. Suigadan [ Water Fang Projectile ]: Gave it a bonus to Korabo. Goshokuzame [ Five Sharks Eating ]: Made it an augment of Suikoudan. Suikoudan no Jutsu [ Water Shark Projectile Technique ]: Didn't say it was a shark in the actual description. What's up with that? Also gave it a secondary use for boosting swim speed if you're in it. Mizu Shinmon no Jutsu [ Water Interrogation Technique ]: Limited it to one piece of information and added a secondary stipulation that the target has to be alive and conscious for anything reliable. Mizu Furiko no Jutsu [ Water Pendulum Technique ]: Completely reworked it. Now it serves as a visual trigger and can be used as a Kai-inducing projectile. Mizu Kawarimi [ Water Replacement ]: It's still uncomfortably close to Suika for my tastes, but now it reduces your activations to 2 in exchange for immunity to physical attacks. Suiton: Hashira Kakomu [ Water Release: Pillar Encirclement ]: Got rid of the "Suiton" part of the name. Hahonryuu [ Destruction Torrent ]: Actually defined what it does outside of Korabo with Rasengan. Suishuu Gorugon [ Water Attack Strong Current Torrential Rain ]: The technique makes the water orb, which can either be used to launch projectiles or as a source for source manipulation. Suitenhoufutsu [ Sky and Water Convergence ]: Now an augment of Suirou. Ten no Gachan Hashira [ Crashing Pillar of Heaven ]: Takes an action to form the pillar now, but it can be launched whenever within 10 posts. Mizuhada Bunshin no Jutsu [ Water Body Clone Technique ]: Switched it to being an augment of Kage Bunshin since the Water Reflection Clone is now different. If it's used on water, the clones can be instantly regenerated. Daikoudan no Jutsu [ Great Shark Missile Technique ]: Reworded the Chakra eating feature. Daibaku Suishouha [ Great Exploding Water Collision Waves ]: Added in a note about Korabo'ing it with Suirou to create Kisame's giant bubble of death. Suiryuuben [ Water Dragon Whip ]: Cut the range down to 100 meters. Also made it an augment of Suishuu Gorugon. Uramiame [ Grudge Rain ]: Civilians don't count, you monsters. Kirisame [ Mist Rain ]: Specified how much Chakra is drained and removed the Chakra pool extension effect. The user now also has to use an action to sustain, lest they also be affected.
Added
Jousui [ Clean Water ] Susugu [ Rinsing Off ] Mizu no Hochou [ Water's Step ]
Maruton:
Removed
Korabo Ninjutsu [ Collaborative Ninjutsu ]: It's now housed in the Alt. Styles thread. If you don't know how this works, I highly recommend giving it a look. Team play is OP. Suzu no Oto [ Sound of Bells ]: Basically Genjutsu, even if Leafninja says otherwise. Rasen Chou Tarengan [ Spiral Ultra Multi-Spheres ]: It's just a bunch of clones using Rasengan, which made it difficult to give it a niche. Rasen Rangan [ Spiral Turbulence Spheres ]: It's just making multiple Rasengans and smacking people with them.
Altered
Genso Bunshin no Jutsu [ Illusion Clone Technique ]: Renamed to Bunshin no Jutsu [ Clone Technique ] because I trust that y'all can keep it straight and because that's the name. Also nixed the "per clone" cost of 2 Chakra, 'cause that's silly. Kawanuke no Jutsu [ Escaping Skill ]: You can now use it on someone else to bust them out! Kawarimi no Jutsu [ Substitution Technique ]: 3 uses per battle. Jinteki no Mayu [ Human Cocoon Technique ]: It latches onto stuff now. Neat! Kanashibari no Jutsu [ Temporary Body Paralysis Technique ]: No longer takes an activation to break free if you're at least within a body rank of the person who uses it. Also you can choose to pay Chakra or Stamina. Shikyaku no Jutsu [ Four-Legged Technique ]: Lowered the DR bonus to slightly, but added in a feature to trade the bonuses for one of your pet's senses. Shunshin no Jutsu [ Body Flicker Technique ]: Same adjustment as Kawarimi. Nadeshiko-Ryuu Shinku Enbu [ Nadeshiko-Style Deep Crimson Dance Performance ]: Speed buff converted to a DR bonus if used alongside a physical projectile attack. Sharingan Soufuusha Sannotachi [ Sharingan Windmill Triple Blade ]: Put a number to how long the shuriken will orbit a spot. No longer absolutely requires the Fuuma Shuriken. Soushuuha [ Manipulate Advancing Blades ]: No longer specifically requires kunai. Tensou no Jutsu [ Heavenly Transmission Technique ]: The damage can now also be mitigated through defense and healing techniques of the appropriate rank, but is no longer mitigated just by having learned several Tai/Buki styles. Kusanagi no Tsurugi: Kuu no Tachi [ Sword of Kusanagi: Long Sword of Sky ]: Gave it a standard operational range and a Chakra drain for its attacks. Senei Ta Jashu [ Multiple Hidden Shadow Snake Hands ]: Now an augment of Senei Jashu. Bunshin Bakuha [ Shadow Clone Explosion ]: Renamed to Bunshin Daibakuha [ Clone Great Explosion ] to match the wiki. Now an augment of Kage Bunshin, increasing the created clones' base cost to 30 each. Kyoumen Shuuja no Jutsu [ Mirrored Surface Attacker Technique ]: Now dispersed by attacks higher than the doppelganger's body rank, capped at A-Rank. The per-post Chakra drain is now based on their body rank, also capped. Also added a delay to deter in-battle use, since this IS a trapping technique. Meisai Gakure no Jutsu [ Camouflage Concealment Technique ]: Increased the upkeep cost to B-Rank per post instead of C-Rank. That upkeep is once every 2 posts if you stay still, though. Also added in the wiki's note of it also erasing scent. Shuriken Kage Bunshin no Jutsu [ Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique ]: Generalized it to any type of projectile weapon. Who needs a Senbon Shadow Clone Technique anyway? Toomegane no Jutsu [ Telescope Technique ]: Added an individual-tracking function with a pretty large range for sensors. Dai Rasenringu [ Great Spiraling Ring ]: Detailed its destructive capabilities. Nan Kaizou [ Soften Modification ]: Added a max Chakra pool reduction since it's permanent. Also lets you pay Chakra to use the Soft Physical Formless Style. Pain's Enma Judgment Technique [ Unnamed ]: Changed the S/S+ overwrite effect to requiring either 1 style slot (of any kind) or 10 Nin/Gen slots before any mirroring. Also has a 3 post cooldown, which gets reset if you get too excited. May sound like a lot, but it's way less than overwriting ALL of your S/S+ techniques with some adjustments made to make sure it doesn't get spammed. Rasenringu [ Spiraling Ring ]: No longer overwrites all your S/S+ techniques, but also doesn't ignore the effects of Sage Chakra anymore. Ayatsuito no Jutsu [ String Reeling Technique ]: Upkeep while holding onto the string starts after 3 posts, to match its duration without being held. Chakra Kyuuin Jutsu [ Chakra Absorption Technique ]: Clarified how much Chakra it drains and how much the user gets. Very few of the drain techniques do that, which can be annoying sometimes. This technique also drains all offensive activations and only knocks people out if you try to drain them below 1 Chakra. Nunoshibari no Jutsu [ Cloth Bind Technique ]: No longer an augment, but it gets a really nice bonus if used with Yuwaeru Tsukegami Houin. Dokushinjutsu [ Eye Mind Reading ]: Clarified that you can't learn techniques with it. Removed the duration and changed it to a "number of items learned per rank". Gyorai Shin [ Torpedo Needle ]: Now acts more like a trap. You pay the cost, set it, and then you can use an action (but pay nothing) to have it skewer people and/or launch at them. No longer an auto-hit, but it's still difficult as sin to dodge if you can't detect the nails before they're in your foot. People with body ranks at or lower than its rank also don't get reflex bonuses from stances or Jutsu. Hyakkryouran [ Many Flowers in Bloom ]: Removed the need for flowers and the Gokan Sakusou powder, since there's no listed way to make it in the guild. Instead, hallucination effects of any hazards used alongside it will automatically enact, extending the technique's duration by 3 posts. Kuro Tatsumaki [ Black Tornado ]: Physical techniques used by stacked people are slightly faster per this technique's rank, but don't get any other speed bonuses (or detriments). Got rid of some of the other bonuses and gave the user the option to hurl the lot of you at something for a strength bonus. This is beginning to sound ridiculous(ly fun(ny)). [ Water Droplet Reflection Sight ]: Gave it the japanese name "Shizuku Touei no Jutsu" because that sounded good and it looked weird without one. Also changed the evasion cost reduction to a bonus to reflexes. [ Wave Transmission Technique ]: Gave it the japanese name "Hansouha no Jutsu" because that sounded good and it looked weird without one. Also added that only those in contact with the affected surface or very near it (i.e. their ear almost against it) can hear the message. Hooray stealth! Hari Jigoku [ Hell Needles ]: No longer requires Hari Jizou. Kongou Rouheki [ Indestructible Prison Wall ]: Now an augment of Kongounyoi. Kumomayu [ Spider Cocoon ]: Reduced it to its normal cocoon abilities. Kumosenkyuu: Suzaku [ Spider Warbow: Horrible Spit ]: Simplified it somewhat and made it an augment of Kumonenkin. Kumoshibari [ Spider Bind ]: Put numbers to the web's size. It gets pretty big pretty quickly. Good for crowd control. Spider techniques in general: Added in sizes and ranges where appropriate and clarified conditions for breaking the web and/or breaking free. Chou Chakra Rasengan [ Super Chakra Spiral Sphere ]: Removed the extra effectiveness against curse seals. Hokage Shiki Jijun Jutsu: Kakuan Nitten Suishu [ Hokage Style 60 Years Retirement Technique: Sanctuary Enlightenment Enclosing Palm ]: Can now be used to restore control to non-demonically controlled entities. Also redid the concentration times so that it's 1 activation per rank up to yours and 1 post thereafter. Slap the crap outta those D-Rank jinchuuriki! Ishibari [ Stone Needles ]: Basically rewrote the entire thing. Now the target can choose to either have a portion of their Chakra vanish per activation (and not restore the user) or pay a bit up front (and restore the user). Konoha's World Barrier [ Unnamed ]: Detailed who gets what info and how, giving it a reason to be able to be passed from person to person (besides the Chakra drain). Shisha Kuu'utsu [ Deceased Consumed Spirit ]: Attempted to clarify certain points I've been asked about in the past. Shuriken no Jutsu [ Shuriken Technique ]: As opposed to charging a blade with special Chakra, they now instead charge it with a Jutsu. It's kind of like a mini-Source Manipulation tied to a specific item, which is roughly how it was used when Shikamaru pinned a shadow with it. Zetsushi Nensan [ Tongue Tooth Sticky Acid ]: Renamed "Zesshi Nensan" to reflect the official spelling. Added a restriction on using it if you don't have a way to make more acid quickly. Houshi no Jutsu [ Spore Technique ]: Reworked the growth and removal mechanics. Kagerou Ninpou: Utakata [ Ant Lion Ninja Arts: Ephemeral ]: Cleaned up the name's formatting a bit. The duration is now dependent on how much Chakra and Stamina the user had before its activation and it can be ended if someone else hits the user with a cancellation technique its rank or higher. In the latter case, the user retains their new body but requires 10 posts of medical treatment per post they spent in the technique. Hey, it's better than death, right? All of Pain's Rinnegan Jutsu: Reworked to incorporate cooldowns rather than overwriting all S- and S+ techniques, and/or miscellaneous other restrictions as applicable. Jujutsu: Shijihyouketsu [ Sorcery: Death Controller Possessing Blood ]: Clarified movement for detached pieces, since not everyone gets to be sewn back together. Also added that people have to perform at least one Jashinism mission per week, since those dang zealots need to be told how to live their un-lives.
Yamabiko [ Echo ]: Removed the stipulation that the user has to cause the sound used. Kenchiki: Shunshin [ Sensor: Body Flicker ]: Increased the range of its detection effect to 10 meters and made it an augment of Shunshin. Hofuku Kageboushi [ Creeping Silhouette ]: Added a stipulation that the technique ends if it goes unused for 10 posts.
Added
Chizu [ Map ]
Senjutsu:
Removed, since it's got its own post.
Fuuin:
Removed
Fuukoku Houin [ Light Sealing Method ]: In addition to being redundant, it shares its name (except for the "Light", weirdly) with another, non-redundant technique. Kyoumen Shuuja no Jutsu [ Mirrored Surface Attacker Technique ]: Already present in Maruton. Jikuukan Kekkai [ Space-Time Barrier ]: The technique it's named after is already present and its written effects are completely unrelated to that technique.
Altered
General: The Universal/Restricted split has been removed. Seals once again consume only Chakra, with notes made on ones that are used in conjunction with physical techniques. Strange characters were made easier to type, such as the dot character (which became a colon) and extended vowels (which were given an easier to write approximation). Fuuin Tsunagu [ Seal Connection ]: No longer retrainable. Ryuu Teichi no Jutsu [ Dragon Spying Technique ]: Can now be learned as a sensory technique. Gyaku Kuchiyose no Jutsu [ Reverse Summoning Technique ]: No longer retrained separately from Kuchiyose. Utsuwa [ Container ]: No longer requires Fuunyuu, Kaifuu, and Fuuin Tsunagu. On its own, it creates a small extra-dimensional container that stays open for a short time. Soushouryuu [ Twin Rising Dragons ]: Now retrainable. All storage seals below its rank can be undone for free. Gofuu Kekkai [ Five Seal Barrier ]: Now can be broken by higher-ranked techniques. Also now retrainable, to compensate for that. [ Scroll Communication Technique ]: Renamed Makimono Kishin no Jutsu [ Scroll Communication Technique ] to make it look nicer. Chakra Kuuin no Fuuin [ Chakra Draining Seal ]: Can no longer drain anyone below 1 Chakra. Kuchiyose: Gamagakure no Jutsu [ Summoning: Hiding in a Toad Technique ]: You can now also summon something for use as part of the same activation if one isn't available. Kuchiyose: Gamamise no Jutsu [ Summoning: Toad Shop Technique ]: Now an augment of Gamagakure. Kakuchō [ Expansion ]: Renamed to Kakuchou to make it easier to type. Now consumes a slot. Kuchiyose: Rashōmon [ Summoning: Rashōmon ]: Switched to "Rashoumon" for easier typing. Kuchiyose: Yatai Kuzushi no Jutsu [ Summoning: Food Cart Destroyer Technique ]: Now only requires training in Kuchiyose. Danzou's Sealing Technique & 2nd Sealing Technique: The former was renamed Jigou Jubaku no In [ Self-Cursing Seal ] and the latter was removed, both to reflect data from the wiki. Fuuin Teppeki [ Sealed Iron Wall ]: The duration now starts after the user stops sustaining it. Kekkai Houjin [ Barrier Method Battle Array ]: Can now be used to trigger items. Trap away! Ni no Fuuin Houin [ The Second Seals Sealing ]: Now an augment of Fuuin Houin. Sanbou Kyuukai [ Three Buddhist Treasures Vacuum Creation ]: No longer requires you be a puppeteer to learn, but does still require puppets be in the appropriate formation. You can set that up beforehand if you really want to or tag team with a puppeteer friend. Shikoku Mujin [ Inverse Four Dark Mist Array ]: Added an "Ura" to the beginning so that it doesn't share the same japanese name as another technique. There also wasn't an "Inverse" anywhere in the japanese name. Kuchiyose: Sanjuu Rashoumon [ Summoning: Triple Rashoumon ]: Each gate blocks techniques up to its rank. Can't be used again while any gates remain. Zoufuku Kuchiyose no Jutsu [ Amplification Summoning Technique ]: Each split now reduces the strength of the created creatures. Omamori no Kekkai [ Protective Tag Barrier ]: Now takes 1 post to use instead of being limited-use. Bunshin Houin [ Clone Sealing ]: Now only lasts 3 posts, after which all the clones disappear. Chikamatsu Sealing Technique [ Unnamed ]: Renamed to Shishi Heikou [ Lion Closing Roar ]. Now has a cooldown on its use. Ekoroji-undou Fuuin [ Ecological Sealing ]: Renamed Seitai Fuuin [ Ecological Sealing ]. Now has a range of 10 meters, plus 10 more per rank of the scroll used above A-Rank. Also now consumes all slots inside a scroll. Fuubaku Houjin [ Exploding Seal Method Formation ]: English name changed to "Sealed Binding Formation" to match the wiki. Also given an approximation of its actual effect, since this one was basically a copy of Kekkai Houjin. Fuuja Houin [ Evil Sealing Method ]: Now always relies on the target's willpower, instead of only when used by someone at least S-Rank. Gogyou Kaiin [ Five Elements Unseal ]: Can now be applied pre-emptively to prevent an instance of an element being blocked. Also an augment of Gogyou Fuuin. Kekkai Houin [ Barrier Sealing ]: Now retrainable and usable up to its maximum retrained rank. You can also make it any degree of opaque, but you can't make it not your Chakra color. Tough beans. Maybe that's a totally worthy use of a PA? I don't know. How much are you committed to aesthetics? San no Fuuin Houin [ The Third Seals Sealing ]: Now an augment of The Second Seals Sealing. Infuuin: Kai [ Secret Mark Seal: Release ]: English named changed to Yin Seal: Release. In lieu of its restricted status, it now consumes 10 slots or 1 style slot, much the same as some of Pain's Jutsu. Iruka's Barrier Technique: Renamed to Isshi Toujin [ String Light Formation ]. No longer arrests the movements of objects and people that are not the user or the target. The base duration is now only 1 post. Multiple people can now also use it together to increase its rank. Its rank has been reduced to D and it's now retrainable. Jikuukan Kekkei [ Time-Space Barrier ]: Renamed Hiraishin: Dourai [ Flying Thunder God: Guiding Thunder ] and made into an augment of Hiraishin. Mugen Houyou [ Infinite Embrace ]: Now has a cooldown of 5 posts after it ends and if you're reading this message me and all your characters get 500 Ryou can be broken by techniques of at least S-Rank. Summons Houin [ Summons Sealing ]: Renamed Kuchiyose Houin [ Summons Sealing ] so that it's not as weird. CAN be prepared in battle now, if you can get 3 posts of uninterrupted prep time. Tensha Fuuin: Transcription Seal [ Goddess of the Sun: Heavenly Illumination ]: Renamed to simply Tensha Fuuin [ Transcription Seal ]. Explained some of its applications better. Kuchiyose: Gojuu Rashoumon [ Summoning: Quintuple Rashoumon ]: Now an augment of Sanjuu Rashoumon. Learning requirement switched from Fuunyuu to Kuchiyose. Fuujutsu Kyuuin [ Sealing Technique Absorption Seal ]: Given restrictions much the same as the other Pain jutsu. Keiyaku Fuuin [ Contract Seal ]: Bumped up the costs a rank to be more consistent. S+ is required to cancel all, B to cancel one. The S+ also prevents all summoning if used, while the B can be used to cancel non-contractual summoning. Tajuu Mugen Houyou [ Multiple Infinite Embraces ]: Adjusted the drain values and made it require multiple users. Also, yeah, it's an augment now. Hiraishin no Jutsu [ Flying Thunder God Technique ]: Nixed the cooldown and removed the Fuuin Specialist restriction and added the ability to transfer objects bearing a shiki to each other. What's the catch? Well, it takes 10 slots or 1 style slot to learn, much like Pain's jutsu. Bijuu Seals: The guide's been expanded on greatly, including some highly experimental delineation of abilities gained from sealed non-Bijuu entities. You don't need to actually learn a Bijuu seal to use it during a Bijuu sealing event anymore, which was a feature that was greatly requested since so few people actually bother. Skip this section entirely if you don't want to mess with complicated rules potentially subject to change later on. Bijuu (Tailed Beast) Attachment [ Chiyo Version - Unnamed ]: Renamed to Kanae Fuuin [ Three-Legged Kettle Seal ] so that it actually has one. It was chosen based on Chiyo using a kettle in Shukaku's sealing. The flavor text was reworked from the very bare-bones information we have to match this new name. No longer grants +50 Chakra. Bijuu (Tailed Beast) Attachment [ Raikage Version - Unnamed ]: Renamed to Tekkou Fuuin [ Iron Armor Seal ] to match the wiki. Works very similar to Kanae Fuuin/Chiyo's Seal for transferring things from the container to other entities or unsealing them, but doesn't have the safety of it in exchange for the ability to be more selective with what gets sealed or unsealed. Basically, it sucks everything in, and you can pick what goes where afterward. Catch your ally in the crossfire? No problem! Hakke no Fuuin Shiki [ Eight Divination Signs Seal Style ]: Elaborated a bit on how it works and made it lower the strength of a paired seal by one step. Shishou Fuuin [ Four Image Seal ]: Made it ignore the weakening effect of Hakke no Fuuin Shiki if used alongside another sealing method. Requires a Fuuin no Kagi be used in that case. Bijuu Attachment [ Kirigakure Version ]: Renamed to Kyouchou no Gishiki Fuuin [ Cooperative Ritual Seal ]. Drains half the Chakra of every sealer or 320 Chakra split between them, whichever's greater. Bijuu Attachment [ Otogakure Version ]: Renamed to Togyo no Fuuin Shiki [ Sacred Enshrinement Sealing Formula ]. It now takes time to complete after the initial sealing and drains Chakra per post during that time, though the cost can be deferred by having more people help. Shinten Fuuin no Waza [ Art of the Extension Seal ]: Increased its rank to S-Rank and added a bit about using it on regular seals. Genryuu Kyuu Fuujin [ Complete Nine Mystical Dragon Seal ]: English name changed to "Phantom Dragons Nine Consuming Seals". No longer requires antagonist status, but also consumes slots like Pain's other jutsu. Also drains Chakra like it's something to do. There's a reason Akatsuki had a bunch of people using this all at once. Sashu Kaiin [ Exploitation Seal Release ]: Consumes slots like a Pain jutsu.
Genjutsu
Added
Suimou [ Weaken and Decline ] Chousen no Toone [ Distant Sound of Defiance ] Irikumu [ To Become Complicated ] Gensou no Hochou [ Illusion's Step ] Tamer's Friendship Gensou no Bakuto [ Illusion's Gambler ] Focus Designator
Shukaku:
Now has a new passive attribute regarding permanently learning demon techniques as augments of their counterparts in the Ninjutsu lists. Suna Soushi no Jutsu [ Sand Creation Technique ]: Now has a per-activation sustain cost. Don't worry: you can leave it dormant for a bit if you don't feel like the E-Rank upkeep cost is worth it. Tanukineiri no Jutsu [ Feigning Sleep Technique ]: Pops Shukaku out for as long as you stay asleep. Daisan no Me [ Third Eye ]: Given a leg up over its counterpart, in that it regenerates if destroyed and can zip about the place. Suna Bunshin no Jutsu [ Sand Clone Technique ]: Can now be instantly recreated! Woo! Suna Shuriken [ Sand Shuriken ]: Now ignores up to a 3 DR increase to Fortitude. Suna Raishin [ Sand Lightning Needles ]: No longer shocks people. Ryousa Bakuryou [ Quicksand Waterfall Flow ]: Increased its range to 30 meters (increased from 20). Fuuton: Sasandan [ Wind Release: Sand Scattering Bullets ]: You can't immoblize people anymore if they have this sand in their blood. Boohoo.
Matatabi:
Tamashii no Jutsu [ Spirit Orb Technique ]: It can now move wherever you want it to within the subforum. Kugi no Jutsu [ Nail Technique ]: Ends techniques instead of preventing their use. Makes it a bit more practical to use defensively and offensively, in my opinion. Added a new technique: Karine [ Catnap ]. Snooze for a bit to eat up some Chakra and shorten your cooldowns. Sleep for longer and things get spooky...
Isobu:
Mizu Yobidashi no Jutsu [ Water Calling Technique ]: Increased range to 30 meters. Shukuzuku Sanran no Jutsu [ Miniature Copy Spawning Technique ]: They can keep using techniques as long as you feed them now. Kiri Gensou no Jutsu [ Mist Illusions Technique ]: Kai gives people a 1 post reprieve now and the illusions stop affecting anyone who leaves the mist. Suisou no Jutsu [ Liquid Transmission Technique ]: Simplified it a bit and removed the requirement that you be the Sanbi to use it.
Son Goku:
Tekken no Jutsu [ Iron Fist Technique ]: Duration doubled. Negates knockback effects in specific circumstances when used alongside Ashi no Hada. Ashi no Hada [ Skin of the Feet ]: Duration doubled. Negates knockback effects in specific circumstances when used alongside Tekken. Panchi no Jutsu [ Punch Technique ]: Now counts as complex when interacting with defenses. Houkou [ Roar ]: Can now force people and critters to flee, with a cooldown. Yougan no Supaato [ Lava Spurt ]: Reduced wind-up time to 1 action. Hatsunetsu [ Heat Generation ]: Now your hairy mitts can be spiritual. Kakazan [ Flower-Fruit Mountain ]: Now 100% more anti-summon!
Kokuou:
Yuuhi no Jutsu [ Flying Jump Technique ]: Synergizes better with Kouro.
Saiken:
Hedoro Hoji no Jutsu [ Slime Preservation Technique ]: Now X-Rank. Ichimyaku no Jutsu [ Connecting Thread Technique ]: Clarified how much of the Chakra the user gets. Kumokasumi no Hedoro [ Disappearing Slime ]: Chakra draining slime used with this technique no longer returns Chakra to the user, but rather perpetuates its own existence. Fushokudan [ Corrosion Bomb ]: Decreased its range from subforum-wide to thread-wide. Namekuji no Kyouran [ Slug's Frenzy ]: Chakra drain stops at 1 Chakra. This should hopefully make encounters with Saiken a bit less than instantly lethal for lower-level characters. Hedoro Saisei no Jutsu [ Slime Resuscitation Technique ]: Same deal as Kumokasumi no Hedoro.
Choumei:
Hikitsuri no Jutsu [ Twitch Technique ]: Situational reflex boost and a range clarification. Haoto no Jutsu [ Hum Technique ]: Increased rank to C and made it automatically counter emotion-influencing techniques that would make you not calm. Hirumu no Jutsu [ Flinch Technique ]: Added a 2 post cooldown to its effectiveness (rather than its usage). Haijanpu [ High Jump ]: Added a clause that lets movement techniques go through the air for its duration. Katto [ Fly into a Rage ]: Physical and jutsu strength doubling changed to a supreme increase to physical strength and ignoring flinching and stunning effects.
Gyuuki:
Kumori no Shimi [ Spot of Shadow ]: Gave it something that it actually does for you. Your attacks ignore up to a mild reflex increase if they pass through the shadow. Yami no Nami [ Wave of Darkness ]: Decreased the range to 10 meters. Toubatsu [ Subjugation ]: Removed the tail restriction.
Kurama:
Nikushimi [ Hatred ]: Removed the stage restriction.
Taijutsu & Bukijutsu:
All: Added stances. Full integration of the stances and more in-depth reworks are forthcoming. Konoha no Tai: Removed clone-based techniques, rearranged things so it's not so front-heavy. Sodate Rakka [ Raising Drop ] renamed to Ageoroshi [ Raising Drop ] and given a completely different effect. Pi Qua Quan: Some minor rewording. Added "Quan" to round out the Pi, Qua, and Quan trio. Changed some effects to make more sense with current systems. Be Water My Friends:
Renamed to The Elegant Flow of Water, to match its description. Retooled the description to explain how it propagated to Kirigakure, which is its patron village, and make it fit the actual content of the style better. Lots of edits to what bonuses the techniques give. More or less gave this a total overhaul while trying to keep the aesthetic intact.
Kyuuten no Kumori: Gave it passive stat increases. Reworked a lot of the techniques that gave more intangible bonuses to define some concrete effects. Iwagakure no Tai:
Rearranged techniques so there's a more even distribution throughout the style. Removed Maruton: Goryu Danga [ Null Release: Mud Beachball ], Stone Floor Sweep, Jagged Armor of Dust, Rising Earth Fragments. Renamed several techniques and/or gave them japanese names for internal consistency. Jishin Kobushi [ Earthquake Fist ] reworked into a stance.
Sazanami: Retooled the stances to be more in line with current plans. Resshuuken:
Removed Nerve Strike, Triple Fissure, Creating the Collision. Simplified many of the descriptions where possible. Reworked some of the effects to be more in line with the norm. Turned Twisting Block, Swimming Defense into stances.
Kanjo-Tekina Ikari: Completely rewritten from the ground up. Only the broad strokes of the style's flavor are the same. Haraise: Expanded to have a full 6 stages.
Bloodline Changes
Reformatting so things are more consistent. Very, VERY light proofreading. Slight adjustments on durations, ranges, etc. for a limited number of techniques. Lessening the demerits on Kuuton and Kouton (Light). Byakugan: Reduced range on some techniques. Sharingan: Izanagi changed to negate cooldowns for Kawarimi and Shunshin. Hyouton:
The "Hyouton [ Ice Release ]" special ability is now required before learning Formless Hyouton. Fubuki's Ice Bombs now play better with the crafting system.
Mokuton:
Replaced "Moku Soujuu [ Wood Manipulation ]" with "Mokuton [ Wood Release ]", which is basically the same as the "Hyouton [ Ice Release ]" ability from that bloodline. This replacement will occur for any bloodline with an "XX Manipulation" ability. Mokuton: Sashiki no Jutsu [ Wood Release: Cutting Technique ], Thrice-Folded Wooden Shield: Changed to X-Rank. Moku Bunshin no Jutsu [ Wood Clone Technique ]: Changed to A-Rank. Reduced the enormous Chakra Pool increase to +20 per Body Rank starting at D rather than +80.
Ranton: Reizaa Saakasu [ Laser Circus ]: Converted to an actual technique that functions more or less how the "ability" did. Bakuton: Removed the weakness to Genjutsu and restriction on learning General Method Ninjutsu. Yamanaka: Changed their special ability "Inton: Kakikaeru [ Mind Release: To Rewrite ]" to play better with the current Genjutsu system. Inuzuka: Turned Howling Mode into a normal Jutsu rather than a Special Ability. Douka:
Better detailed the mechanics of assimilation and its weaknesses/limitations. Minor rework of the core abilities to make them (hopefully) less overwhelming. Changed "Foreign Substance Manipulation" to "Advanced Substance Manipulation". Added a different "Foreign Substance Manipulation" ability.
Jiongu: Removed the restriction that you couldn't be Genjutsu class. Souma no Kou: Switched the Advanced Evolution's dependence to be on Body Rank instead of title. Reduced the total ranks available from 20 to 14.

Description: ___[ Eiseijutsu ] Souzousaisei (Genesis Rebirth) had an old name for its related seal. Updated with said seal's more proper names, of which said technique is already listed in our Fuuin. (e.g. Infuuin: Kai, S-rank)
Description: ___[ Tamer Class ] The Tamer class has been updated. A character slot can now be expended to grant the pet various benefits, allowing it to operate closer to a second character. As there isn't anything similar to compare this to among the other classes, we'll be evaluating how well this plays; as such, the bonuses may be adjusted at a later date if needed.
