    We are doing a special Experience Bonus for all characters made in Kirigakure.

    If you make a chara in Kiri, you will receive an additional 300 starting Experience (both spendable and total)

    We have a slew of new announcement for everyone:

    1. The Iwagakure Kinjutsu is now C-Rank meaning it is easier to learn.

    2. Sage Mode now has 6 Slots for Custom Sage Mode and 6 Slots for Custom Imperfect Sage Mode.

    3. We have clarified the rules on how the two tier gap from A to S works. The two tier gap from A-Rank to S-Rank is only relevant when it comes to Stat Raises (going from a base of A-Rank to a base of S) and Stat Boosting (temporarily boosting from A-Rank to S-Rank). It is NOT relevant with respect to Stat Debuffs, Jutsu Power, or anything else.

    What does this mean?

    Well if you have S-Rank in Speed and someone debuffs you two tiers then you go to B-Rank. If you have an enchantment that lowers the power of Water Release jutsu then an S-Rank Water Release Jutsu would become B-Rank. In other words, the only time it takes two tiers to go from A to S is when you are boosting stats or spending experience to take your A-Rank stat to S-Rank.


    4. Konoha and Uchiha Clan are now closed.

    Hey all,

    Some questions have come up regarding the old rules on Neo-Gladius. For the time being, assume that all of the rules in this thread: https://thegladiusrp.forumotion.com/t480-2020-site-updates are null and void.

    The exceptions are these rules:

    Consistently making bad calls in a fight can result in a penalty deemed by staff. Bad calls are defined by illogical arguments and otherwise abuse of the system.


    In addition, Civilians will now be able to craft 1 X-rank item per year, per crafting skill. Basically this means that if you meet the conditions to craft an X-rank item on more than one crafting skill, you can craft one X-rank item correspondent to each skill, per year.

    And the changes to the Chinoike Clan.



    Additionally..

    1. Jasihinism has now been registered and added to the site's list of Restricteds.

    2. You may now have 3 additional threads exclusively for participation in the War threads (as in Theater of War, Shinobi World War missions). These do not count towards your total of 5. You can of course have more than 3 War Threads but those will cut into the 5 threads allotted.

    Couple of Announcements:

    1. The following rules have been added: Players can use generic NPCs for the purpose of their own story. These NPCs can only be damaged with the permission of the player that created them. However, they are unable to have any impact on other Player Characters until upgraded into a Class of NPC.


    2. The Hydrification ability of the Hozuki Clan now costs 1,000 Experience. All new Hozuki must pay this amount but existing Hozuki do not have to pay this amount and are considered grandfathered in.

    A few changes to Multi-Shadow Clone Technique have been made. Here is the new technique:



    Name: Multi-Shadow Clone Technique
    Rank: A
    Power: -
    Activation Cost: Varies
    Upkeep Cost: -
    Range: 1 km.
    Speed: -
    Element: -
    Skill: Ninjutsu
    Classification: Village Exclusive
    Requirements: -
    Parent Technique: Shadow Clone Jutsu
    Hand Seals: Clone seal or Tiger
    Description: This technique is just like the Shadow Clone Technique, however a more refined version meaning less chakra is required to keep each clone functional. Instead of a few clones, it creates a few hundred clones to even thousands. This technique removes the requirement that the creation of clones split the user's chakra evenly. Rather, each clone can have a specific amount of chakra apportioned to it. Each clone must have at least .1 chakra in order to be functional and must be created next to the user, though more could always be added to serve a greater purpose.
    Weaknesses: When casting the Multi-Shadow Clone technique the user's stamina must be above 30 CP in order to maintain control over his/her clones. In addition, the user must maintain general concentration to maintain their clone's presence. If at any time the user is inflicted with heavy damage in contrast with their Constitution all clones will be dispersed. Once clones of this nature are dispersed, the chakra does not return to the user but is instead lost/spent as though it were a regular jutsu.

    Several Announcements!

    The First Shinobi World War Event is undergoing an adjustment! The following changes have been implemented:

    1. The War Era will be during Present Day. Phase I will be said to have lasted 1 year. This means from the time when the Exams finished to the end of the first phase of the War, one year will have passed. Thus, all current Phase I War Missions are flashbacks. Any newly created Phase I War Missions, Phase II and subsequently Phase III will be real time. Because we are now back in present time, any thread that is not a War Thread or Heavenly Emporium ("HE") thread is death enabled as per usual.

    2. Whether or not you can die in a War thread will be specified by the individual mission. If its unclear, you should assume its not death enabled. Travel Time Rules will be suspended for the purpose of getting to and from War Threads.

    3. The Heavenly Emporium will remain as it is...a neutral safe zone for all parties to RP without worry.

    4. For the purposes of leaving and entering HE/War Threads you may insta-travel to that location from your home village/base and vice-versa. You cannot fast travel to the base of Allies/Neutrals. It needs to be your own home base of affairs. Your home village/base should be specified to prevent confusion but failing that Staff will decide in the event of a conflict.  

    5. RT threads will be said to have taken place at the conclusion of Phase I (Minor Nation squabbles are slowly receding only to rapidly heat up again). You may edit and adjust your threads to fall in line with this change so that they remain consistent and logical. You can either edit the posts individually or you can place a parenthetical at the top of the thread explaining its adjustment.

    6. The number of threads you can have is set at 5. There will no longer be an additional 3 threads specifically for the War.

    7. For newly registered characters, feel free to adjust your age accordingly to what you think is appropriate for the present setting.


    Bonus: A couple of changes to canon jutsu have been made. CES is to be adjusted to 30 CP Activation, 20 CP per post Upkeep. Earth Spear is to be adjusted to 20 CP Activation, 10 CP per post upkeep, its mechanics have been clarified as follows: A-Rank Armour + C-Rank damage strikes on top of Strength.

    Announcements

    1. Water Heaven's Convergence has been edited:


    Name: Water Release: Water-Heavens Convergence
    Rank: A
    Power: B
    Activation Cost: 10
    Upkeep Cost: 5
    Range: 0m-70m.
    Speed: One tier below the user's base Coordination
    Element: Water
    Skill: Ninjutsu
    Classification: Village Exclusive (Kiri)
    Requirements: Preexisting Water
    Parent Technique: N/A
    Hand Seals: Tiger, Dog, Monkey, Snake, Boar, Tiger
    Description: This technique enables the user to control water and moisture around oneself much like Gaara controls his sand. It can be used to block most incoming attacks, bind or drown opponents, and shape the water into various attacks, allowing the user in conjunction with the Summoning Technique to allow water-based summonings to fight in areas that it normally need water to move around by either trapping the target in the same water or maneuvering the water to allow the summon to chase the target. It is able to extract and utilize groundwater, and as is very effective most areas, but useless in rocky areas.
    Weaknesses: Just as the technique states it must require a source of water in order to be used. Rocky areas, or dry environments with very little moisture will make this technique unusable.  Because freeform manipulation is only attached to the user's base Coordination, techniques, unique abilities, or items that increase the user's coordination do not affect one's freeform manipulation speed. Techniques, unique abilities, or items that wish to boost one's freeform manipulation capabilities must specify that they are doing so and are thus evaluated on that basis. If the user seeks to draw moisture from the air, they must do so from their immediate person (5m maximum), thus any volume of water created in this method will first generate from the user before it can be freeform manipulated outward. The user can freeform manipulate 1 cubic meter of the liquid for every tier of stamina that they have (only the user's base stamina is counted for this).

    If you have a custom based off of this exclusive, it ought to be re-balanced in accordance with these changes.

    2. The number of Custom Bijuu we will allow is limited to five. This doesn't mean custom entities but rather custom bijuu that are more or less the exact same as canon bijuu in terms of mechanics.

    3. Clarified that you need a true base of S to hit X. Unique Boosts do not count for this is has to be the actual base with no boosting whatsoever.

    1. The Genjutsu Rules regarding timer and costs have been clarified.


    It is also important to note the relevance of a character's stats in deciding whether or not a character knows they are in a Genjutsu.

    When it comes to using Genjutsu, you must keep a few things in mind:

    - Chakra for a Genjutsu is paid at the time of casting in the form of the activation cost.

    - The first post of the timer starts in the post after you cast the genjutsu.

    - Upkeep for the Genjutsu does not begin until the Genjutsu has taken effect.

    Example
    Itachi is fighting Naruto and casts a Genjutsu that has a timer of 3 posts.

    1st Post - Itachi casts the Genjutsu. He pays the activation cost.
    2nd Post - Itachi and Naruto Keep Fighting. 1/3
    3rd Post - Itachi and Naruto Keep Fighting. 2/3
    4th Post - Itachi and Naruto Keep Fighting. 3/3 [GENJUTSU TAKES EFFECT, UPKEEP BEGINS]

    2. Senju Clan Jutsu have been updated.

    Just a couple minor things

    1. For Implants Generic Material must come from a player character. NPC can not be harvested for organs

    2. For a body to be used with the Six Path Technique the corpse must be either from a player character, a unqiue npc or a registered npc, not a Generic Npc

    As reminder please make sure to do your character updates properly. If you gain a new item or ability in character but don't claim it in your updates then you will not be able to use it when going into battle. It would suck for someone to lose a fight because of a clerical error

    An official audit of Kumogakure has been completed, and the updates for it and the minor nations it controls have been corrected and new updates have been posted for September 2020. Thank you for your patience with us as we dealt with this matter.

    All characters that claimed updates related to income from Kumogakure or any of its nations after August 28th 2020 will need to resubmit their requests to align with the corrected updates. Please note that the entirety of the Mid Month update in September for Kumogakure has been voided.

    ToW threads will no longer grant sparing experience. You may claim death experience for those who die in ToWs but you can not get sparing experience. If you collected sparing experience in previous ToWs please subtract that from your spendable and total experience.

    You may now retire a single character and put the 25% rollover experience towards more than one existing character. However, every time you exercise this option, you may not create another alternate character for a period of 8 months.

    Gladius 2020 Rule Changes


    Hello everyone! We are now celebrating our third year anniversary and with that comes some major changes to various rules and systems. If you have any questions, comments, and concerns about the adjustments feel free to let us know!

    War System

    The Gladius War System has officially been nixed! Certain parts of it are now integrated into the general Village/Organization Rules.

    We have removed the different role types for NPCs. There are no more Scout NPCs, Assault NPCs, Guard NPCs, nor Counter-Espionage NPCs. All NPCs are just the same and if you want to make them "scouts" then you should give them the apropriate jutsu, stats, and skills to do the job. Purchase price for D-Class NPC will be 30K. The purchase price for C-Class NPC will be 40K Ryo. Maintenance Prices will be 30K per month. Keep in mind they still must be trained.

    We have abolished all war machinery including but not limited to: catapults, ballistas, trebuchets, and cannons. If you want to re-register some of these they might be approved (catapults) but cannons are not likely to be allowed.

    Ships are now considered "buildings" and are governed under the building system. East Indiaman give a flat 300K to every trade route they are applied to. One ship is applied to one trading route. You cannot apply it to resources that have been traded away. Tartanes give 75K to every fishing resource they are applied to and they are subject to the same restrictions and limitations. Corvettes now halve water travel times.

    A nation can only acquire trade routes if they are a registerable village. This means that people can start new characters in their village. Additionally, a nation can only have 5 trade routes active at once.


    Implant Rule Changes

    Chimera can have simultaneous activation of and stacking of all the KKG boosts it acquires. However, it is still subject to the Generic Two Tier Cap rules.

    Dual KKG can have simultaneous activation of and stacking of the boosts that make up their Dual KKG.

    Senju Blood can only yield a single implant. If someone tries to draw enough blood for a second one, the Senju’s blood cells saturates the sample with antibodies thereby making it unusable.

    Dual KKG implants have their own separate set of modifiers. Their modifiers are reduced by -15.

    When people lose their organ, they have to get their specific organ back if they want to remove the flaw. If your organ is lost or removed you take the flaw unless you can prove it was simply destroyed in which case you don't have to take the flaw. In updates when people claim their implants they must note who it came from.

    Reiteration that KKG Loss Flaws are designed to be burdensome and will be crafted to impose a mechanical liability on your character. Examples include: Passive -1 Tier to a stat, +1 Rank in Cost to a major fighting skill, and -1 Rank in Power to a major fighting skill [for boosters this lowers the amount you can boost].



    Susanoo Changes

    The quality of the Susanoo Defense has been buffed! It is now:


    Level 1: B Rank

    Level 2: A Rank

    Level 3: S Rank

    Level 4:  S++ Rank

    Level 5: X Rank


    Water Travel Times

    We have added Water Travel Times to the site's travel rules.


    Puppetry Changes


    Price Changes
    E: 1,000
    D: 10,000
    C: 50,000
    B: 100,000
    A: 500,000
    S: 1,000,000


    Multi-Puppetry Change
    For every additional puppet the user wields after the first two they incur a single - to Coordination. This is a base debuff.

    Puppetry Armour Limitations
    If you use your puppet as armour then you may decide to either replace your Strength or Constitution stat with that of the puppet. You can only pick one and this choice must be declared upon registration of the puppet.

    Additionally, anytime you use the puppet as armour in this fashion then your Speed stat will automatically be set at C-Rank.

    Enchantment Changes


    Price Changes
    B-rank Enchantments: 50,000 - 75,000 ryo
    A-rank Enchantments: 100,000 - 250,000 ryo
    S-rank Enchantments: +500,000 ryo

    Charges Caps
    B-rank: 20
    A-rank: 30
    S-rank: 40

    The distinction between Active/Passive has been removed. It just now goes off of uses. Everytime you use the enchantment subtracts from its charges.

    You may no longer increase the number of charges. It is permanently capped at the values you see, once it goes down it must be re-charged. All materials that increase the number of charges such as Platinum are hereby unapproved.

    For the record all currently existing enchantments are grandfathered in and don't need their values changed

    Nature Clan Changes

    Nature Clansman can now either have their Nature Clan boosts OR their Sage Mode Boosts. They can switch mid-thread.

    Rate of Absorption has been increased passively to 15 in addition to other methods of collection granted by Sage Mode.

    Kata can be used with either Sage Mode or Nature Clan buffs.

    Once a Nature Clansman hits X-Class they learn to enter their mode without having to deal with the debuffs.


    Village Conquest Changes

    The Minor Nations have had enough with the incessant attacks on their sovereignty. In this era of global warfare they have increased the quality of their troops and stand ready to defend their borders from the encroachments of state and non-state actors.

    All Minor Nations will now be guarded by A or S-Rank Unique NPCs

    Costs have gone up by 4 Million across the board

    Experience Mission Cost to get it via diplomacy are now between 2K and 3K.

    New Rules Regarding Staff NPCing. After 48 hours lapses, a member must give notice to ALL members of staff. Staff then is given an additional 24 hours to post. If staff does not post within this timeframe then the player may call hits.

    Staff and/or Members assisting with roleplaying NPCs/Bijuu and the like may be granted 30 EXP per post for their efforts.

    Ōtsutsuki Clan Changes

    Outer Path
    -The chains have been buffed.
    -Ressurection has been nerfed.
    -Gedo Mazou cost has been decreased and its survivability increased.
    -Note that the Resurrection changes will take effect AFTER it has been used again.

    Asura Path
    -Boosts can now be considered Aura or Item based on the user's desires.
    -They are specified as UQ Boosts
    -Blades specified as being at A-Grade in Quality and Hardness.
    -Rocket Fist has been removed and can be re-apped as an independent technique.

    Human Path

    We have added the following ability:


    Add the ability for the user to steal small portions of the enemy's soul. Manifested in the following components.

    Spendable Experience Steal: The user can steal a portion of their opponent's spendable experience on contact. They can steal 10% of those who are B-Class and up, 25% of those who are S-Class and up, and 50% of those that are X-Class and up. This ability can be used once every 3 months. If the exp steal has been used up for that month then an A-Rank amount of Psychological Damage is inflicted on contact.

    Total Experience Steal: The user can steal a portion of their opponent's total experience on contact. They can steal 5% of those that are B-Class and up, 10% of those that are S-Class and up, and 25% of those that are X-Class and up. This ability can be used once every 6 months. If the exp steal has been used up for that month then an S-Rank amount of Psychological Damage is inflicted on contact.

    The experience stolen is then put towards the user's spendable AND total exp.


    Naraka Path
    -Increase tendril strength to S
    -Increase tendril speed to A

    Preta Path

    Because this ability drains at a maximum of 15 points per post, it can can cause a hazardous opening. Harmful chakra, like Senjutsu, can cause damage if the user is untrained. Finally, absorbing more chakra than the user has capacity will cause chakra burn; every point over the user's Stamina maximum counts as a deduction from both maximum and current values, the former of which lasts three topics. Physical damage also occurs if the Stamina burn reaches certain points, because it is poisonous to the body. At 10 points, the body begins to exhibit physical burns, causing discomfort and immobilizing those with lower Constitution. At 20 points, the burns become more severe and the body begins to shut down, lowering Strength, Speed, and Dexterity by a tier, each. At 30 points, the body begins breaking down, lowering all stats by a - per post until the user is unable to move and slips into unconsciousness. Beyond 30 points, the user dies.

    *^ These drawbacks have been removed.

    They can now absorb Genjutsu up to A-Rank.

    Fuuin remains unaffected by this technique.

    Non-chakra physical attacks are unaffected but the boosts fueling them can be nulled.

    This means that effects can transfer over, such as increased power in techniques, healing, and turning into stone.

    *^ We have removed "increased power in technique."



    Elemental Jutsu

    The Elemental Ninjutsu Libraries have been updated! There are have been many changes so re-familiarize yourself with their new capabilities.


    Because many of these changes affect builds deeply we are allowing 1 FREE character reset which will end on December 6th, 2020 at 11:59 PM

    We also will be having our annual Gladius Community Pageant! Stay tuned for that!

    UQ boosts given by Nature Clan even at X-Class cannot stack with other Restricted UQ Boosts.

    Clarification regarding the East Indiaman trade ships. They can be applied to up to five trade routes. The last sentence that was contradictory regarding not being able to apply them to traded resources has been deleted.

    New Flight Rules:

    Flying is a rare and highly coveted ability in the Naruto world. Therefore its usage is restricted to: Engineering, Summons, Puppetry, Restricted and Exclusive Techniques. If you have a flight jutsu/ability that does not fall under these categories it is hereby unapproved. If you are uncertain feel free to ask a member of staff.

    All flying is capped at 500m from ground level. Keep in mind, flight is a unique power that is to be treated with care and respect. Abuse of these rules will not be tolerated and usages outside the bounds of fair play will be subject to staff review.

    Alternate Characters Rules have been updated, these also include rules for Alt Bans. These can be found here.

    Alternate Character Rules:
    Players are allowed up to two alternate characters (3 total characters). These characters must be played with separate accounts and cannot interact in such a way that either character will stand to benefit.

    Players may be granted permission for further characters by administration. A third alternate character may be approved after having passed two consecutive activity checks, and permission for a fourth alternate character may be granted after having passed another two consecutive activity checks. There is a cap on characters played by a single character of 5, one main and four alternate characters. If a player displays exceptional levels of activity and responsibility they may be granted special permission to make alternate characters beyond this.

    Staff will monitor player activity to ensure the privilege of alternate characters is not abused.
    Dropping a character (dropping is defined as retiring a character within 6 IRL months of creation - regardless of storage usage.) results in an Alt Warning which lasts 1 IRL year upon issue.
    If a player accumulates 3 Alt Warnings within 1 IRL year of the first Alt Warning given will result in an Alt Ban.

    During the Alt Ban:

    • The player is limited to the characters they currently have (including any in storage).
    • Upon the death of any of their characters they may only register a character which consumes no slots (only if the death of that character puts them below the 3 normally allowed). (Dual KKG/Jounin/ES slots etc.)
    • After successfully passing one Activity Check and displaying good behaviour the player may be granted 1 alternate character slot back by staff if applicable. This alt slot is a part of the 3 character slots (1 main character and 2 alternate characters) that members have a right to and cannot be beyond this.
    • Gaining an Alt Warning during an Alt Ban will extend the length of the required activity checks to be allowed to make alternate characters by one Activity Check per warning.

    Experience Changes

    1. Experience Rewards will be set to 10 EXP per post.
    2. Mission Completion EXP for NPC Missions will be capped at 5 per month.
    3. Experience Rewards for solo RP will be set to 5 EXP per post.

    Note that unlike the past, missions will no longer give extra exp per post. Its now 10 across the board barring other modifiers.

    The amount of experience needed to increase your base stat will likewise increase.

    B->A: 1000
    A->S: 2000

    In order to give you all some time to grind before these values are changed, we are delaying implementation of these rules. You will have one month to make full use of the current experience rules before we transition. These rules formally go into effect on January 1st at 12:00 AM EST. If you do not have an update submitted for review by that date then you they will receive the adjusted values. Please make sure to get all your threads in by that date! There will be no extensions!

    The new rules are reflected in the spoiler below:

    The following rule has been adopted:

    Boosting Jutsu from S to X is prohibited. The same is true for items, chemistry, summons or any other ranked mechanic. The general presumption is that boosting to X is not permitted absent extraordinary abilities and/or explicit rules that provide otherwise (Restricteds, Plot Items, etc).
