Sage System U/C

[Kazuraii]

The Sage System

Sage Mode is an empowered state that can be entered by blending Nature, Internal, Elemental or Physical energy with one's chakra, creating senjutsu chakra. Sage Mode allows users to tap into the chosen forces of the world, opening up new techniques to them and allowing them to power up existing ones with the new senjutsu chakra.

Sage Mode is known to be taught by the representatives of the animal pacts. Also the kages of the great nations are known to carry manuscripts that hold the great knowlage of the human paths. Four in total. Nature path, Internal path, Elemental path, and Physical path. Users of Sage Mode must possess "extreme chakra levels" to invoke senjutsu. It is also important that their bodies be strong enough to support the increased power. (Jounin rank required) The user must also possess the prerequisites needed to learn the human path as well. With the Kages permission and blessing to do so.

In order to enter Sage Mode, for animal path, the gatherer must remain absolutely still in order to be one with nature and balance the natural energy with their own physical and spiritual energies. Five [5] of the users posts will make them reach their full sage chakra limit. Once they enter sage mode of the chosen animal path they will begin to usually exhibit traits of the animal. Learning sage mode from the animal path however is only taught by the member of the summoning pact that is considered the one that teaches sage mode. They also can choose who they teach. If a pupil does not show adequate ability as a shinobi or they feel it would be placed in the wrong hands, they have the right to refuse training. So be mindful of the summoning pacts virtues!

Each of the five Kage possess manuscripts with the teachings of the human paths. They protect these much fiercely then the village jutsu they possess. Only allowing prided students that show great potential and ability will receive such training from the documents. This again is dictated by the Kages wants and desires, be mindful of their virtues if you wish to learn a path. They also retain the right to refuse training. Human path is a bit different than the animal paths. Human path requires a type of bloodline or clan to obtain the proper knowledge of the sage being sought after. The current clans for the paths are as follows. These are some but not limited to.
