Seems like the bloodline got a buff.

The described usage seems like it's actually the Sharingan, or at least a part of it. Not to weaken our skills, but @eaglejarl should probably look at that.

@AugSphere Care to give the attribute coefficients for the 'Encoded Program' skill so I can fix the character sheet?

I've always liked this name. Don't care too much about last name.

Eh, a Sharingan that requires careful study, can't see chakra, and is completely cut off from Mangekyo nonsense actually isn't that broken. And from what I understand, that's exactly what we have.

I think we should front-load our next level up. What are our priorities? Dispel, Tactical Movement, Chakra Adhesion, what else?

Resist Intimidate or Resist Fast-talk could be good. Its more defense.
For more on the defense-front we should probably up awareness before adhesion. Spotting ambushes is a good way to avoid them.

For more offense we should consider Working with traps prime choice. It gives us more choice in using our stealth and preparing the battlefield.

Utility is Sealcraft or Medical knowledge first priority. Then medical ninjutsu or tech development.

In totality: Tactical movement first, then Awareness, then Dispel probably.

Then we should check how many points we have and see how far we are from upping one of our core skills.
(Name given in eastern style: Last name, First Name, though @eaglejarl can feel free to use Tatsumaki as a nickname if he wishes)
[X] Plan MordBad's Name
-[X] Tatsumaki Shin

"The true whirlwind" For one interpretation of the name.
Or my preferred one: "The whirlwind of progress"

Just to have another one running around.

Personally, I think the location should not have been up to a vote. The jounin would have been the ones to decide where we go, not the snot-nosed genin who's paralyzed by a mass of voices in their head.

The jonin were the ones who made the decision. They just happened to have made a decision that matches the story the players would like to be part of.

Well, to be fair, 'tis a death world mostly due to ninja inhabiting it, rather than wildlife.

It's...possible I'll go off book in one or two places. *looks innocent*

...I'm sorry, it sounds like you're saying that we should nerf the nice bloodlines benny we just gave you. I mean, we can, if you really want....

Those few paragraphs of text represent several hours of wrangling among the staff. Trust me, it's what we intended.

Hey, I'm fine with it. Even if it isn't Karin-sense which gave us an entirely new skill to work with and two free points in that skill...

Pro tip! If you go to the Naruto Wiki and scroll down to the Japanese voice actor for a given character, (in the box on the right) you are almost guaranteed to find a name that actually makes sense. Then you can just click through characters till you find one with a name you like the sound of.

This doesn't seem like the kind of vote that will matter in the long-term. Thank god.

Or, you give him the name of Genghis Khan and be awesome

Rihaku · Dec 12, 2015

By the way, are we presently naming in Eastern order (Last Name First Name) or the reverse? We should make that clear when writing up vote options.

ChronOblivion · Dec 12, 2015

I would assume that people are doing First Name -> Last Name.
