- Kekkei Genkai »
Kekkei genkai, literally meaning "a technique limited to inheritance by blood" or "Bloodline Limit", are abilities passed down genetically in specific clans. It's possible for a ninja to have more than one of these abilities. Kekkei genkai abilities that work via the user's organs, more commonly the eye, are called dôjutsu. Other kekkei genkai include mixing one type of elemental chakra with another, creating a new one unique to the users, which is usually impossible for normal ninja.
KG Guild-lines
1. Balance out the KG- God-modding a bloodline is one of the things we will not allow. We can't have people running around with a doujutsu that lets them vaporize enemies with their eyes and only takes a C-Rank's worth of chakra.
As such we require that members creating kekkei genkai try and balance their abilities. Some methods include limited number of uses a day, great pain when used (if you put this we will be watching that you include this), high chakra consumption, etc. Or if the ability is mundane enough you won't have to go to such extremes to balance it.
Again, for example, take the Byakugan. It allows the user to see through solid objects. This KG gives the ninja a tactical advantage, but does not bestow anything else. It is up the ninja to react and use this new information accordingly. This kind of bloodline would only require a C-Rank's worth of chakra as well as the usual level of chakra to maintain. (See jutsu system for clarification)
2. Be Specific- Being vague or non-descript with your KG will not be allowed. This leads to loopholes in bloodline jutsu which leads to god-modding and so on and so forth. So for the sake of this site we ask that creators be specific in the abilities, risks, and requirements for the kg and jutsu that are associated with it.
3. Create a Clan- If you are creating a custom KG, then you must also get a clan approved. This is a simple process: the name, size, history, and some clan jutsu if there is any.
Custom Elements
Elements will be graded the hardest out of the KG, with the exception of custom doujutsu. Things like Crystal, Swift, and Steel are expected to pop up and they will be graded very harshly. The only reason is that these tend to be the easiest to god-mod.
Also with elementals, the KG is expected to be more of a guideline for the jutsu of that element. ie it sets out the traits of the element comparable to others, like if it can cut easier than Fuuton (wind), as well as the extra effects and dangers it has.
