Ninja Classes

Ever since the beginning of the first generation of shinobi, a careful study of professional classifications, or classes, has identified several archetypes of great interest. Individuals belonging to these classes and subclasses gravitate towards key roles in history - making events. Because of the likelihood that representatives of these archetypes will shape the future of the world around them, a closer analysis of each class is warranted and is posted here for further study and discussion.

___Starting Out
• Classes set your character's abilities, strengths, weaknesses, and restrictions.
• You must choose one (1) class and one (1) subclass for your character.
• Choose your classes wisely because once your character has been approved you can not change them.
• You can create any combination of the Main Classes and Subclasses.
• The abilities from both classes are added together (chakra boosts, etc).

___Chakra Pools
• The genin rank listed under your Main Class tells you what your base chakra pool (starting number) is.
• The genin rank listed under your Subclass has an immediate chakra boost which comes into play simply by choosing that class.
• When you rank up, immediately add both chakra pool increases to your character - One from your Main Class, the other from your Subclass.
______(To clarify, a Ninjutsu-Medical genin has a base chakra pool of [250] chakra from the Ninjutsu Main Class, and an increase of [+25] chakra from the Medical Subclass. In total, this genin has [275] chakra).

___Attributes
• After you have selected your Main Class and Subclass, you will receive at least two (2) Class Attributes.
______(Simply put these Class Attributes in the appropriate section on your profile).
• Class Attributes overlap earlier attributes as you rank up.
______(Example: the Ninjutsu-Genin attribute "Simple" is overlapped by "Normalize" after getting promoted to chūnin).

___Jutsu Limits
• All Main Classes and Subclasses have technique limitations. To determine your character's overall limits, simply add the two together.
• Bloodline techniques do not count against overall limitations.
• The six (6) ninjutsu that everyone starts with do not count again overall limitations.

Main Classes

Ninjutsu Class

___Description:
Ninjutsu ("Ninja Techniques") refers to any technique that utilizes chakra and allows the user to perform actions that a normal person would otherwise be incapable of doing. Ninjutsu relies on chakra and hand signs to be effective with its offensive, defensive, and supportive results. Additionally, this class has amazing control over elemental ninjutsu, as well as boasting the highest base chakra pool amongst any other class.

___Special Notes:
• The ninjutsu limit of the Ninjutsu Class is split between elements.
______(A genin with two elements can learn 6 of his primary element and 6 of his secondary).
• To clarify, the subclass ninjutsu limit is separate.
______(A Ninjutsu-Medical genin has 6 slots for each element, and an additional 2, from the subclass to spend in either element).
• The reserve of chakra provided by each attribute can be accessed when you either run out of chakra, or have your system tampered with.
______(Example: the Gentle Fist style can tamper with your chakra pool).
• Shinobi of the Ninjutsu Class can learn at least three (3) elements!

Genjutsu Class

___Description:
Genjutsu ("Illusionary Techniques") are techniques that are employed in the same fashion as ninjutsu, requiring chakra and hand seals. However, the primary difference between the two is that the effects of genjutsu are illusory; instead of attacking the victim's body, like taijutsu or ninjutsu, genjutsu techniques manipulate the flow of chakra in the victim's brain, thus causing a disruption in their senses. Genjutsu shinobi use powerful techniques, too, and have the second-highest base of chakra reserves. These particular shinobi usually fall short in physical aspects and appear to be more intelligent, although this is not always the case.

Taijutsu Class

___Description:
Taijutsu ("Body Techniques") is a basic form of techniques that typically does not require chakra, but chakra may be used to enhance techniques. Taijutsu generally require no hand seals to perform and are much quicker to use than ninjutsu or genjutsu. Taijutsu is simply put: hand-to-hand combat. Taijutsu shinobi attempt to deal external damage whether it's by multiple strikes, or powerful single blows. However, unlike other methods of physical attack, the damage dealt is typically blunt and non-elemental; thus, taijutsu results in broken bones and exhausted opponents. The average taijutsu shinobi generally have low chakra reserves.

___Special Notes:
• The Taijutsu Class has two attributes. However, you may select only one.
• Once you have selected your attribute, you cannot switch to the other as you rank up.
______(Example: If you select "Clear Body" at genin, you cannot select "Guts" at chūnin).

Bukijutsu Class

___Description:
Bukijutsu ("Weapon Techniques") are attacks that utilize various forms of powerful tools in order to achieve severe and swift results. Those of this class are often dedicated to their weapon of choice. Like taijutsu, most bukijutsu do not require hand seals or chakra, but rather than causing blunt physical damage, weapon techniques deliver various results - slashes, smashes, stabs, and piercings; the end result of a bukijutsu attack depends on what weapon is actually being used.
