Genjutsu System
This is just a quick guide to how the Genjutsu system works in our guild. Genjutsu is fairly simple, I just want to make sure everyone knows how it works. At any rate, most of this is just as it works in the Naruto universe.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________
In the Naruto Universe, so it makes it easier for everyone, Genjutsu will only be activated through six ways. Listed below are how you are allowed to put someone into a Genjutsu, as to avoid making genjutsu into a godmod based technique as I've seen it become in other guilds.
1. Eye Contact-Through contact of the eyes a genjutsu may be implied. Even the tiniest glimpse of the eyes can put the opponent into the genjutsu.
2. Hearing-Sound may be used as a way to effect someone's chakra to activate a genjutsu.
3. Touch-Some genjutsu will require physical contact to activate it.
4. Applied Object-A genjutsu can be stored into some sort of weapon or item on the body. using the genjutsu still costs chakra, but if someone looks at the item, the genjutsu is automatically cast. Even the tiniest glance can put the opponent into the genjutsu.
5. Smelling-Through the nose and into the system a genjutsu may be used as an aroma or some sort of smell to enter the system and be used to activate a genjutsu.
6. Sight-The most common and sometimes the strongest too. This involves the target to acknowledge whatever part of the body/object is used in casting the genjutsu. This can range from eye to eye contact, leaves/dust capturing and ensnaring the mind in the jutsu. The moment the target acknowledges whatever is being used as the caster then the genjutsu is activated, no ifs or buts.
In order to best avoid any chance of god modding, do your best to hint at the genjutsu in a way that it is well implied without directly saying it. This way your opponent won't be put into a god mod situation in such a way of knowing pulling in outside knowledge. ((Of the genjutsu)). This will ensure a good role playing environment.

Breaking Free
Now we move into something completely different. Breaking free from a Genjutsu is totally different then casting a jutsu. The reason Genjutsu users are so deadly is because of how extremely hard it is to break free from their genjutsu. Below are the listed ways of breaking free from any genjutsu cast upon you.
Note: You must first realize you are in a genjutsu for any of these to work. There is absolutely no way to just magically know or auto sense that you are in one. And to realize you are in a genjutsu, depends on your character and how you create that character. The easier your character can detect and defend from genjutsu, the easier it will be. But if your weakness is genjutsu, do not expect most of these to work.
1. Chakra (Kai) - Stop your chakra flow and then apply an even greater force by expelling chakra. Using more chakra then what was used to cast the Genjutsu will break you free of the Genjutsu. Kai will break you free of most genjutsu but cannot be used on the first turn your under.However, you must first determine that you are, in fact, under a genjutsu.
2. Outside Help-If you are caught in a genjutsu and an ally or something else causes you any sort of physical pain then you are automatically broken free from the genjutsu you have been placed under.
3. Dojutsu Cancel-If you have a dojutsu of your own, you have a much easier chance of detecting a genjutsu placed on yourself. This works up to any rank genjutsu as long as you are skilled enough to break it.
