You've finished researching the Macerator seal. Now we're trying to come up with rules for it, and we figure we're going to outsource this to you clever folk. We need some way of figuring out what it can and can't macerate. Suggestions?
You know that the first Hokage was famous for his Wood Release, but you haven't heard of anyone using it since then.
It varies. If they happen out in the woods there's no problem. If they happen in or near a city then lots and lots of people die.
Kagome is familiar with the following materials that seals can be written on:
• Paper, vellum, and other paper-like things
• Clay tablets
• Smooth stone like polished marble
• True masters have put seals on flesh. In Kagome's words, this is done by "Bone-headed retards. Skin changes shape, gets a sunburn, gets a cut, gets old, seal gets distorted, everything goes boom or slurp or splat or some other godawful noise and then we're all running for our lives and cursing stupid idiotic boneheaded retarded stinking 'expert sealmasters'. Ptui."
None of you know anything about chakra conductive metal aside from the fact that it exists, is crazy expensive, and is used for constructing weapons. You've certainly never heard of it used for anything other than daggers before.
The Kurosawa have written genealogy going back about 10 generations. (~200 years.) All of those generations had the Iron Nerve. No one is quite sure when it originally cropped up.
The Sage (and therefore creation of chakra) was 1,000+ years ago. The Elemental Nations are (arguably) several hundred years old; before that was the Warring States period where the nations were nominally there but poorly defined. The Hidden Villages are about 100 years old.
There are a series of berms and walls remaining -- removing all of them is impractical. There's no clarity on what exactly they were for, though.
This happened.
You have 4,958 ryo. (A little under $500 USD.) There are moneylenders in large towns, but no banking system per se. Money lenders require collateral.
No, seals cannot move or change shape / size in our 'verse.
No.
Rules for storage seals:
1. Each seal has a maximum volume it can contain, set at creation time.
2. Each seal has a maximum mass it can contain, set at creation time.
3. Typical values are 1m^3 and 100kg.
4. Each seal can hold only one object.
5. The object must be within 3' (one yard) of the seal to be stored.
6. For this purpose, "an object" is defined as follows: Draw a line from the seal to the nearest point of the thing you're trying to seal. Imagine water flowing over the surface of the object. The water must be able to completely cover the item with no breaks. (e.g., the object can't be tied or chained to something).
7. There are stresses applied to the object when it is put into the seal and taken out of the seal. The stresses are asymmetric and somewhat random in terms of vector and intensity. They mostly-but-not-entirely stick to the surface of the object, although some will be inside it as well.
8. Inside a storage seal there is no time so the object is preserved exactly as it was. This includes temperature.
A stupid box is made by taking something that is going to explode very very soon (but hasn't yet) and putting it in a seal before it can.
Yes, he can choose a length from 0 up to 10s.
Yes, it is fully researched.
No. That is not information that the characters have, it is meta-information about game mechanics.
Since leaving Mist they've spent a lot of time living around civilians -- even in Mountain. They've come to recognize that civilians are people too.
Kawarimi lets you switch places with a distant object. It models super-fast movement, not teleportation. As such, the rules are:
1. You need to be able to see at least 25% of the target, such that the 25% is exposed to the surrounding environment (i.e. you could walk up to it and touch it).
2. You need a clear path to the target, meaning one that you could actually traverse by (wall- / water-) walking.
3. The path must include no turns, although it can allow changes in orientation. Example: your path can go straight to the bottom of a cliff, then up the face of the cliff using wall-walking.
4. If you can only see part of the target then it needs to be what you think it is. Examples:
1. You put a log behind a tree with part of the log sticking out. You can switch with it.
2. You put a log behind a tree, but someone else comes along and swaps it with a different log without you knowing. You see part of the log and think it's the same one you put there, so you try to switch. You fail.
