S U M M O N I N G S - G U I D E
- This thread covers all that there is to know involving summoning animals and the Summoning Technique. The Summoning Technique allows the user to transport a target to their location.
Before an animal can be summoned, a prospective summoner must first form a contract with the animal and/or its species. In the case of the toads, the contract is a scroll that the summoner signs their name to using their own blood and further marks with the fingerprints of one of their hands. Snake contracted summoners has the snakes' contract tattooed to his arms, which he smears with blood each time he wants to perform a summoning. A user can summon different species provided they have signed the respective contracts. Contracts remain active even after death, allowing those revived with the Impure World Reincarnation to perform summons they established when they were alive
To actually summon an animal, users apply some of their blood to the hand they signed the contract with. Usually they bite one of their fingers to accomplish this, but blood from injuries elsewhere on their body can also be used. They press the hands' five fingers to the ground and channel chakra to the hand, summoning the animal to that location. The amount of chakra gathered in the hand determines the size and number of animals that are summoned: if too little chakra is offered, only a small, young animal will be summoned by offering large amounts of chakra, multiple adult animals can be summoned simultaneously. Two people who have signed the same contract can pool their chakra to summon especially large animals. If an individual has access to the blood of someone who has signed an animal's contract, they can use the blood to summon the animal; the individual will need to provide their own chakra, however.
Animals are typically summoned in order to lend assistance to their summoner, either by carrying out tasks or joining them in combat. Summoners will sometimes use their summons as a base for other jutsu.
But summoned animals are not actually required to do anything and may choose instead to harm their summoner. Animals can even refuse their summoner's attempt to summon them by sending another of their species in their place. Animals are not summoned indefinitely and will return to wherever they were summoned from when they tire out and/or enough time has passed.
In Naruto GT, a character may be able to acquire a summoning by first learning/mastering the Summoning Technique and has made a contract with whatever contract they applied for. After that application is approved, however that character meets and interacts with that contract is entirely up to them. Also, each summon will be categorized by Tiers as well as their own particular stats. Of course it is still a jutsu so summoning animals will eat up chakra so keep that in mind.
Animal tiers are differed through three separate tiers and each tier has their own formal stats and rulings;
[ Basic Tier ] - [ Advanced Tier ] - [ Boss Tier ]
[ Strength ] How physically strong the summoning is
[ Durability ] How tough and durable your summon is
[ Speed ] This refers to the summons motion speed
XXX｡｡｡RULES
[ 1 ] Users are not permitted to learning this technique on their own until they have reached the rank of Chūnin. However, Genin can learn this technique only through being taught by someone that knows the technique.
[ 2 ] Summoning contracts will have to be applied for before you begin RP. However, you can mention how you plan on having your character get their contract in their application.
[ 3 ] Having an approved contract enables you to utilize all of those animals as a whole. If you wish to have your own summoning partner, you will have to provide your own as a custom here in this forum
[ 4 ] As stated above, animals are separated by tiers and each tier will come with a general overview, it's own concrete stats, summoning durations and size limitations. These are NON-NEGOTIABLE.
[ 5 ] Dependent on the tier you are given a set of stats, how you decide your summoning partner's stats are up to you.
[ 6 ] Each Summoner is limited to 1 Boss-Tier summon. This limitation is increased to 2 Boss-Tier summons if character's fighting style is "Ninjutsu - Summoner Based"
[ 7 ] If you decide later on to add a new contract, discuss with the application's mod about adding a new Summoning Contract Application section to your Application thread.
