Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well, seeing how the Kaguya's kinda died before the show started and Kimimaro was the supposed last, making up a good story to the bone manipulators back six - seven hundred years later would be probably considered bs by the person who made Naruto. >.> xD But idk if it's the fact that Kimimaro had so much power with his limit (thought the cursed seal was the real reason he could do a lot of his moves) or the fact that he was supposed to be the last that got the Kaguya's banned in the guild. Cause if it's the latter then I can make a story up to bring them back, but if it's not then I can argue a point that with his cursed seal Kimimaro would have only been able to harden his bones and pull out certain other bones. But I doubt he could pull out his spinal cord without the cursed seal. sweatdrop

I know... o.o' I wondering why so I can try to find a way to get them. xP I happen to like the Kaguya's very much as a Taijutsu Clan.

I'm curious... if Sneak is a Dex stat... wouldn't Sneak Attack be a Dex Stat as well? o.o?

Sneak attack covers all sneak attacks: ambushes, traps, etc. hiding is a dex-based stat because if one is not coordinated and dextrous, they cannot keep their hiding place efficiently. But a sneak attack can use a melee weapon, a ranged weapon, a bomb, a rock from overhead, et cetera, so assigning a stat to a learned skill with almost no limits is bad for anyone.

It gives a bonus to strike and a bonus to damage, and for a skill to do that it would have to be free of an ability bonus, due to the fact that it wasn't specific to a type. Weapons give bonuses to hit because they have ability bonuses. For sneak attack to have an ability bonus, you'd have to have

Sneak attack: Strength
Sneak attack: Dexterity
Sneak attack: Intelligence
Sneak attack: Chakra
Sneak attack: Charisma

Wisdom and Constitution don't govern many attacks, but if they are used for your attacks, you'd have to have them for those, too. And for a skill that barely ever gets used and even fewer times gets points... That's just insane.

Carlos may have a different argument, but this one is my interpretation.

1. usually 2-3 years
2. whatever you want as long as it follows the village/guild story
3. you say what you learn and write the training out.(Ex. if you want to learn Katon: Gokakyu no jutsu. then write 2-3 paragraphs about the training you did.
4. the only thing you can do is hope your story is good enough. you also can write what stats you think you should get and the crew looks over your story and gives you the stats you deserve.

There's a limit to how many jutsu you can learn that will be determined by your rank. Since you're a student genin ish type you can probably learn max 1 B rank or 2 C rank or 3 D rank etc etc although we might change that (for the low ranks). I don't care how much you write about the process but note that more description = more experience and rewards.

You can train every day doing whatever the heck you want.. xD
