Attributes

Here at Naruto Genesis we use a stat-system like many others. It's difficult to RP Naruto with anything less, as there are many different kinds of warriors/fighters in Naruto. However we have Attributes and "Sub-Stats". Attributes are the more simplistic stats that determine very specific niches for a character. Sub-Stats (explained in the next section) are the traits that make up those stats. Attributes are what matter and are what you should list in your topics.

These "Attributes" are:

Physical Attributes

1) Might - A person's physical endurance and physique/muscle. This allows them to lift heavy objects and also to take more damage and punishment than a normal human being plausibly could at higher levels! Grants Armor.
Sub-Stats: Strength/Constitution

2) Speed - A person's quickness in all aspects of their ability. Their movement speed. Their striking speed. Speed governs all these. THIS is the stat that competes against a person's tracking to determine whether or not they can be followed or targeted.
Sub-Stats: Movement/Coordination

3) Power - A person's striking force. This is how hard they strike in close quarters combat whether they're using a weapon or their bare fists. Whether it's the physical force of their great physique or simply the kinetic force from their movement speed, this determines your offensive potential in Close Quarters Combat.
Sub-Stats: Strength/Movement

Mental Attributes

4) Intelligence - A person's ability to gather information and strategize against their opponents. This determines the amount of jutsu they can use, the potency of Genjutsu or countering Genjutsu, as well as how many skills you can learn.Often overlooked, but a great mind can be just as dangerous as a great body on the battlefield.
Sub-Stats: Knowledge/Intuition

5) Tracking - A person's ability to track someone's movements whether by sight, sound, smell, or extrasensory stimuli (chakra sensing). This allows people to respond even to people who are faster than they are (competing against a target's Speed) and hit them with Ranged Attacks. Represents the ability to also predict a person's moves.
Sub-Stats: Coordination/Intuition

Chakra Attribute

6) Stamina - A person's ability to use chakra or exert physical stress on their body. This determines how long their body can hold out. Unlike the other stats - this stat is determined by the physical and mental facilities of someone. Only through both physical and spiritual (mental) energy can someone realize the true potential of their chakra. Stamina is special, and therefore will be discussed in its own special section. Determines how much chakra you can use.
Sub-Attributes: Highest Physical Attribute/Highest Mental Attribute

But what does it all mean? Why are there stats and sub-stats?

The answer to this is simple. Speed, Physical Might, Intelligence, and Chakra itself is made up of multiple physical facets. You can move fast but still be trackable if your movements are linear. You can be have a strong physique but not have much power behind your punches. You can be book smart but not necessarily have a great sense of strategy. You can be great at aiming but not have a good sense of how to hit a moving target. These sub-stats are to help you build your character and decide how you want them to be.

SUB-STATS ARE LIKE BUILDING BLOCKS. THEY MERELY SHAPE YOUR ABILITIES BUT ARE NOT A DIRECT REFERENCE FOR THEM! ATTRIBUTES ARE WHAT MATTER.

Sub-Stats

Sub-stats, as explained before, are the building blocks of each major attribute described in the previous section. While it is ideal to balance out your sub-stats so that your attribute can be at its best, this is not always the case.

A good example is Itachi and Sasuke, both considered very fast shinobi in their own right. However Itachi's specialization was in Coordination. His hand-seal speed, his tricky shurikenjutsu with his hands, and his taijutsu ability were all off the charts. Sasuke on the other hand specialized in movement, and was primarily focused on blitzing his opponents before they could react). This didn't mean Itachi was slow in the movement area, or Sasuke was slow with his hands. But their primary focuses were different, and for some characters that will be the case.

Here we will break down each stat for people so they can understand how each of them relates to their respective attributes.

Each of the "Sub-Stats":

Might's Sub-Stats

1) Strength - Strength is exactly as it sounds. The physical ability to move objects and also striking force. The power to break objects or bones.

2) Constitution - Constitution is the durability and the pain resistance of an individual, as well as their resistance to certain effects like poison.

Speed's Sub-Stats

1) Movement - Movement is exactly as it sounds. This is the speed at which you run, your kinetic force, how fast your reflexes are, and other facets of dodging or speed blitzing.

2) Coordination - Coordination is also exactly how it sounds. Hand-Eye Coordination. But it also governs movement control, striking speed, and even aiming.

Power's Sub-Stats

1) Movement: See Speed Sub-Stats for information on Movement

2) Strength: See Might Sub-Stats for information on Strength.

Intelligence's Sub-Stats

1) Knowledge - Book-smarts. This stat determines your knowledge of the outside world (and therefore other jutsu), and even your ability to use Genjutsu!

2) Intuition - Street-smarts. This stat determines your mental processing speed and your ability to survey the battlefield and predict your enemy's next move. Also strategic analysis.

Tracking's Sub-Stats

1) Coordination - See Speed Sub-Stats for info on Coordination

2) Intuition -See Intelligence Sub-Stats for info on Intuition

Stamina's Sub-Attributes

1) Highest Physical Attribute - Might, Power, and Speed were explained in the last section, and are not sub-stats usually. Stamina however is a very special stat, as it actually cannot be invested in. Rather it is the result of training one's mind and body, allowing them to tap and focus greater amounts of energy through them. Might, Power, and Speed each represent training one's physical body past it's normal human limitations.

2) Highest Mental Attribute -Tracking and Intelligence both cover mental faculties. The mind is important for harnessing the power of chakra and using one's own imagination and creation to shape energy into physical forces (whether actually solid or energy-based or just illusions).

Rank System
Here on Naruto Genesis our stat system uses ranks (an alternative word for tiers) in order to determine the efficiency in something. It's simple. If you're a tier lower than someone you're weaker than them. If you're on the same tier then you stalemate with them. And if you're a tier higher then you're better than them. This doesn't necessarily mean it's game-over as there's techniques and tricks you can still use to even the playing field (see more sections for information). But for the most basic aspects of combat it's all about the stats.

Every character starts out with a minimum of 6 Stat Ranks (aka D's across the board) and has a maximum of 20 Stat Ranks for Endgame Stats. These can be spread out as you like to design your character!

When Comparing Attribute Ranks

0 Tier Difference between Ranks = Dead Draw (meaning either can win in that facet of battle)

1 Tier Difference between Ranks = Minor Advantage for the Victor (High Difficulty for the situation)

2 Tier Difference = Major Advantage for the Victor (Medium difficulty for the situation)

3 Tier Difference = No Contest for the Victor (No Difficulty for the situation)

It's important to note that stats are NOT everything. These are merely a guide to help determine superiority in certain aspects of combat (like Speed and Strength, or smarts). Strategy, Jutsu, and RP to an extent all still play key factors to figuring out who wins in a fight. Just because you have a tier over someone in a stat doesn't mean you're entitled to win.

Conversely however Stats are still important. Do not try to negate them. If someone clearly outclasses you and you willingly stepped into the fight, then you can't bitch when they tear you limb from limb.

The Ranks for each stat go:

**Note: Ranks need to be purchased in order. You can't skip ranks to spend less EXP. Each Rank has its own EXP cost.**

D - Default
This is the default tier for all characters. It basically allows you an average human's abilities. You don't need to spend EXP to reach this rank. All stats start at this level.

C- Casual
This is the tier for the average shinobi, which is olympian level abilities. You need to spend 250 EXP to obtain this rank in any single stat.

B- Badass
At this stage you are at the tier of an advanced shinobi, and transcend the laws of physics themselves. You move in a blur, you can smash off walls, you can stave off death. You're a total badass. You need to spend 500 EXP to obtain this rank in any single stat.

EXAMPLES:

A- Amazing
At this stage one can hardly believe that you are human. You are an elite shinobi in this field, so much so that you invoke fear in your enemies. At this stage you can cross large distances in moments, smash down boulders with ease, and your skin seems supernaturally strong. You need to spend 1000 EXP to obtain this rank in any one stat.

(Keep in mind.. she takes this sword, rips it off, and then beats around Madara's susanoo with it... which is why it's considered an impressive durability feat. It honestly should have split her in half.)

S- Super
This is the physical level of a Kage. You are considered a master of this field of combat (whether it's speed, strength, intelligence, etc.). Even an untrained Sharingan can't keep up with your speed. You can break through even the mightiest of defenses. And you can survive even the strongest jutsu and live to tell the tale.
You need to spend 2,000 EXP to obtain this tier in any single stat!

X Rank
At this stage you are among the best in the world in whatever stat you have at this rank. You are a person who will live on for eternity in myths and fairy-tales. At this stage your physical capabilities rival Bijuu themselves. You are beyond even most Kage.
You need to spend 3,000 EXP to obtain this tier in any stat.

EXAMPLES

?-Tier
Reserved for Plot NPC's. One cannot boost or upgrade to this rank without special conditions. Wild Bijuu will sometimes be DM'd at this level to maintain the fun of Bijuu events.

Determining Attributes
So you learned what Attributes were, and you learned what Sub-Stats were. And you learned what the ranks for each stat were and how much they cost. "So Hoss, how do I determine my Might, Speed, Intelligence, etc.?"

Here are the formulas:

1) Might = (Strength Ranks + Constitution Ranks) / 2

2) Speed = (Movement Ranks + Coordination Ranks) / 2

3) Power = (Movement Ranks + Strength Ranks) / 2

4) Intelligence = (Knowledge Ranks + Intuition Ranks) / 2

5) Tracking = (Coordination Ranks + Intuition Ranks) / 2

6) Stamina = (Highest Physical Attribute Rank + Highest Mental Attribute Rank) / 2

Example 1: Tsunade has an X tier in Strength (D->C->B->A->S->X = 6 Ranks)
Tsunade has an A tier in Constitution (D->C->B->A = 4 Ranks)
Tsunade's Might = (6+4)/2 = 5 Ranks (aka S rank Might)
Example 2: Sasuke has a S rank in Movement (D->C->B->A->S = 5 Ranks)
Sasuke has an A rank in Coordination (D->C->B->A = 4 Ranks).
Sasuke's Speed = (5+4)/2 = 4.5 Ranks

Sasuke's Speed is S Rank, because all decimals round up!

?-Rank Might- Able to tank as much as the plot allows.

Speed: Speed determines how fast you move, how fast your Hand Seals are, how fast you can draw and throw Kunai accurately. Great for evasion, melee combat (including Melee Jutsu), drawing speed and hand seals.

0 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor is undecided and speed battle could go either way. Roleplay it fair.

1 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor can narrowly avoid a projectile or finish your hand seals first or connect your melee attacks. You have the advantage, but they can still hit you a percentage of the time and react to your hand seals. You best be taking some hits/countering and playing fair.

2 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor can consistently avoid a projectile or finish his hand seals or connect melee attacks. You are hard to keep up with. But not infallible. Take or Counter a hit a few times.

3 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor is essentially untouchable by the loser. Get rekt by that speed.

Power: Power Determines the physical power you can manifest into your blows in Close Quarters Combat. Whether it's your overall physical strength from the Strength Stat or your leg strength/kinetic strength from the Movement Stat!

D Rank Power: Every melee hit from either unarmed or a melee weapon deals a D rank of damage.

C Rank Power: Every melee hit from either unarmed or a melee weapon deals a C rank of damage.

B Rank Power: Every melee hit from either unarmed or a melee weapon deals a B rank of damage.

A Rank Power: Every melee hit from a melee weapon or unarmed deals an A rank of Damage.

S Rank Power: Every melee hit from either unarmed or a melee weapon deals an S rank of damage.

X Rank Power: Every melee hit from either unarmed or a melee weapon deals a X rank of damage.

Tracking: Tracking determines how fast your mind works in battle, and how well-trained your senses are. Great for the purposes of ranged combat (including Ranged Jutsu), locating enemies, and predicting/tracking movements.

0 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor is undecided and the ranged battle could go either way. Roleplay it fair.

1 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor can narrowly hit with a Projectile, or occasionally counter an enemy you can't outspeed in Melee. You have the advantage, but they can evade you a percentage of the time and react to your projectiles. You best be missing some hits on them to play fair.

2 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor can consistently hit with a projectile or counter a faster opponent. You are hard to escape the focus of. But not infallible. Miss a few times. And don't abuse your counters.

3 Tier Lead Versus Their Speed or Tracking - Victor is essentially incapable of missing their target, and can easily counter someone even if they're faster than them. Get rekt slowpoke.

Intelligence: Intelligence directly determines how many jutsu you can learn, how well versed you are in Genjutsu (both countering it and casting it), and also allows you to learn more skills (see Skills in a later section).

**Note: Extra Skill Slots do stack and need to be trained.**

D-Rank Intelligence- 25 Jutsu Slots (Not Including Academy Techniques). Know about any D rank Jutsu that exists through paying attention at the academy. Customs do not count (as they are new techniques).

C-Rank intelligence - 50 Jutsu Slots (Not Including Academy Techniques). Know about any C Rank Jutsu that exists through careful reading. Customs do not count. Know about the Eight Inner Gates/Seven Heavenly Breaths.

Post by Tenshi on Nov 3, 2018 0:02:14 GMT -5

Stamina
As we explained before - Stamina is a special stat here on Naruto Genesis. You cannot invest into it directly, rather it is determined by your Physical and Mental Energies (which is determined by your Attributes).

Stamina Rank = (Highest Physical Attribute [Might or Speed] + Highest Mental Attribute [Intelligence or Tracking]) / 2

NOTE: Bonuses from SKILLS, Techniques, or Bloodlines do NOT affect Stamina calculations, unless they specifically state an increase in Stamina (like the Uzumaki Clan perk).
Note: Even with cost reductions... someone with D rank Stamina can't use A Ranks or S ranks. The same goes for C rank Stamina and S ranks. And B Rank Stamina for X-Ranks.

Example 1: Sasuke has A rank Speed, C rank Might, C rank Tracking, and A rank Intelligence. His speed is higher than his might, ergo that represents his physical energy a bit more. His Intelligence is higher than his Tracking. D/C/B/A = 4 Ranks in Speed. D/C/B/A = 4 Ranks in Intelligence. (4+4)/2 = 4 Ranks of Stamina! Sasuke has A rank Stamina.

Example 2: Rock Lee has A rank Speed, C rank Might, C rank Tracking, and C rank Intelligence. Speed is his highest physical attribute, and his Intelligence is C rank. (4+2)/3 = 3 Ranks in Stamina. Rock Lee has B rank Stamina (D/C/B )

Example: 3 Naruto has S rank Might, B rank Speed, B rank Tracking, but C rank Intelligence. S is his highest physical attribute, and his highest mental attribute is B. D/C/B/A/S = 5 Ranks. D/C/B = 3 Ranks. (5+3)/2 = 4 Ranks.

Naruto's Stamina is A Rank. I know it's probably higher than this if you factor in the Nine Tails but this is just an example. None of these calculations are meant to be truthful statements of Canon characters~

"Okay but how much chakra does each Rank give?"

D-Rank Stamina
D-Rank Jutsu = 20% Chakra
C-Rank Jutsu = 40% Chakra
B-Rank Jutsu = 60% Chakra
A-Rank Jutsu and Above = Outside of your reach

C-Rank Stamina
D-Rank Jutsu = 10% Chakra
C-Rank Jutsu = 20% Chakra
B-Rank Jutsu = 40% Chakra
A-Rank Jutsu = 60% Chakra
S-Rank Jutsu and Above = Outside of your reach

B-Rank Stamina
D-Rank Jutsu = 5% Chakra
C-Rank Jutsu = 10% Chakra
B-Rank Jutsu = 20% Chakra
A-Rank Jutsu = 30% Chakra
S-Rank Jutsu = 50% Chakra
X-Rank Jutsu = Outside of your reach

A rank Stamina
D-Rank Jutsu = 2.5% Chakra
C-Rank Jutsu = 5% Chakra
B-Rank Jutsu = 10% Chakra
A-Rank Jutsu = 20% Chakra
S-Rank Jutsu = 30% Chakra
X-Rank Jutsu = 50% Chakra

S-Rank Stamina
D Rank Jutsu = 1% Chakra
C-Rank Jutsu = 2.5% Chakra
B-Rank Jutsu = 5% Chakra
A-Rank Jutsu = 10% Chakra
S-Rank Jutsu = 20% Chakra
X-Rank Jutsu = 30% Chakra

X-Rank Stamina
D-Rank Jutsu = 1% Chakra
C-Rank Jutsu = 2% Chakra
B-Rank Jutsu = 3% Chakra
A-Rank Jutsu = 5% Chakra
S-Rank Jutsu = 10% Chakra
X-Rank Jutsu = 20% Chakra

?-Rank Chakra
As much as the plot allows.

Chakra Recovery
After every 10 turns have passed, a user gets a flat 10% Chakra back. This is to represent one's natural recovery in the heat of battle.
