Newbie Guide by Aaron. Getting Started: First of all, welcome to Shinobi! I'm glad to see that you may be interesting in registering if not already registered. Either way, Shinobi expects you to register with an in character name only. The only people you will ever see with an out of character name are the people on the Shinobi staffing team. For example, this account is my out of character (OOC) administration account. My in character (IC) account is Hekima Ena Sadashi. Some quick facts that you will need to know about Shinobi, is that its only one forum account per IP address is allowed. This only excludes staffing members, as previously explained, they require an OOC and IC account. Currently Shinobi only allows one ninja character per person. This may change later on in the future however you may have as many civilian characters as you want. Another thing you should know, is that all of the great villages are open for new characters! You can be in Konoha, Suna, Kiri, Kumo or Iwa! Creation: Like all roleplays, you will be expected to post an application / biography page for your character. Templates will be provided of course and upon completion your work will be moved into the appropriate corresponding village biography subforum. Some things you should know about, pre-creation, is that its only one ninja character per person and the highest rank you can start off at is Genin. Sadly, our highest rank is our lowest. You may be wondering about "Civilian", this has nothing to do with the ninja ranking. If you choose to create a civilian, then you're an average civilian of a village with no jutsu specialties. We allow you to have as many civilian characters as you want and only one ninja. During the creation of your character stage, try to plot out your motives / wants / needs right now. What is your character going to be doing? Of course, if your applying for a canon character - things could be a little easier! Theres one thing that takes number one priority here. As a Genin, you may only control one jutsu type. That may be: Ninjutsu, Genjutsu or Taijutsu. You may be wanting something like Senjutsu, we'll complicated things like that don't come until later on down the ninja path. If your picking Ninjutsu at a Genin stage, then you may only control one nature type and use moves corresponding to the Genin rank. If you're a little confused, click here for Technique Introduction. Selecting Genjutsu only gives you the ability to use up to three low damaging techniques or one high damaging technique. With Taijutsu, you will be only able to open up three of the inner gates. Canons: Yes we allow canons! However, lets get something clear. If you post an application / biography for a canon that shows absolutely no knowledge of the specific canon in question or perhaps no knowledge of how to portray this canon - you will definitely not be gaining access to it. Remember that the Naruto world has quite a few high powered Canons and so we only want capable roleplayers using them. Being a canon doesn't mean that you gain all of their powers, skills or even ranks that are shown in the manga or anime. For example, Onoki is the Tsuchikage, however in this AU he's died from old age and my character (a custom) has succeeded him as Kage. Registering with a canon characters name and posting an application for one does NOT guarantee you that character. The best applicant shall receive this canon. Activity and Posting: We here at Shinobi expect our fellow roleplayers to be quite active, posting and inviting. We'd prefer it if you guys could post a minimum of three (3) times a week. This isn't much, however it does help with the contribution to the forum! When you are gracing us with a new in character thread, remember to place in the thread description the rating! Shinobi accepts ratings from G to MA15+. We have a minimum word limit of two-hundred (200). Q&A: We are always happy to answer any of your questions, especially if this guide hasn't answered all of yours! If you click here you'll find our Questions and Answers forum. Feel free to post here, even if you're a guest - its guest friendly! More Info?: Of course, reading over the Rules and Information forum will also help you gain a better understanding of Shinobi. Please click here for the Rules and Information forum which has a lot of guides taken from incredible resources (like Naruto Wikia & Leagninja) and put together for you - the roleplayer! |
