Stat, battle, and movement system

[[Explicit | Memories]]

Physical
Mental
Spiritual

Physical - A shinobi's physical energy, which is a measure of their strength, speed, and survivability.
Mental - A shinobi's mental energy, which is a measure of their chakra control, regeneration, and genjutsu damage.
Spiritual - A shinobi's spiritual energy, which is a measure of their jutsu's power, their chakra pool, and their handseal requirements.

_____________________________

Physical: Controls a user's health points, speed, and taijutsu damage.
-Health points are determined as two times the user's physical points. Example: 30 physical times 2 equals 60. That person's health is 60.

-The user's speed is 1 speed every 15 physical points. Example: 45 physical. User has 3 speed, or 'movements' in his turn.

-The user's taijutsu damage is equal to their physical stat.
*note on taijutsu damage: unarmed taijutsu cannot outright kill an opponent if it cannot pierce the skin. Bukijutsu, weapon jutsu, can outright kill opponents if it pierces through certain vital organs. This is considered a critical hit, and staff determines when a critical hit happens.
______________________________

Mental: Controls a user's chakra control, chakra regeneration, and their genjutsu damage.
-Chakra control determines the amount of chakra the user reduces from jutsu costs. Every 5 spiritual stat reduces the amount of chakra a jutsu costs by 1. This can never go less than half of the jutsu's written cost. Example: Kawarami's written cost is 10 chakra. The user has 50 spiritual stat, which reduces jutsu costs by 10. Kawarami costs 5 chakra for the user, because it cannot be reduced below half of it's original cost.

-Chakra regeneration determines the amount of chakra that the user regains during combat. For every 3 points in mental, the user regenerates 1 point of chakra per turn.

-The user's genjutsu damage is equal to their mental stat.
*note on genjutsu damage: Genjutsu damage is only counted as long as the genjutsu is active. If the defender runs out of health during a genjutsu, they collapse. If the defender breaks the genjutsu, they regain any lost health.
______________________________

Spiritual: Controls a user's chakra capacity, handseal cost, and their ninjutsu damage.
-Chakra capacity is determined as two times the user's spiritual points. Example: 30 spiritual times 2 equals 60. That person's chakra is 60.

-Handseal cost determines the amount of handseals a jutsu requires to be cast in combat. every 15 points in spiritual, the handseal cost is reduced by 1. Minimum Handseal costs go by rank, unless specified in the jutsu's description.

Jutsu Rank	Base Seals	Minimum Seals
E rank	6	0
D rank	8	2
C rank	12	4
B rank	20	5
A rank	36	9
S rank	70	13

-The user's ninjutsu damage is equal to their spiritual stat.
*note on ninjutsu damage: some ninjutsu can burn enemies, shock them, penetrate the skin greatly, etc. Special effects of burning, shocking, freezing, piercing, or cutting, are placed in the jutsu's description.

Jutsu Damage by rank

E rank	.5x damage
D rank	1x damage
C rank	1.5x damage
B rank	2x damage
A rank	2.5x damage
S rank	3x damage

The damage an attack deals is based on the stat that applies to the jutsu. Physical stat applies to taijutsu, Mental stat applies to genjutsu, and Spiritual stat applies to ninjutsu.

Damage = (Attacker's stat x jutsu rank damage) - (Defender's stat / 2)

Example: Attacker uses a C ranked Ninjutsu and has 50 spiritual stat. Defender is struck completely, but the jutsu doesn't break skin or do internal damage. Defender has 40 spiritual stat.
[Attacker's stat(50) x Jutsu Rank(1.5)] - [Defender's stat(40) / 2] = Damage(55)
50 x 1.5 = 75 and 40 / 2 = 20
75 - 20 = 55

Dodging: Spending a movement to dodge an attack reduces the final damage by 75% unless the jutsu is unavoidable or has an explosive effect.

Actions: All characters, regardless of physical stat, get a minimum of 4 actions always.

Handseals: A certain amount of handseals can be done in a single action, based on the user's rank.

Rank	Handeals per Action
Academy	4
Gennin	8
Chuunin	12
Jounin	16
Elite Jounin	18
S Class	20

((This system is for "low-moderation" combat, requiring little interference from staff members unless directly called for. Another "high-moderation" combat system is open to creation.))

[The Horse]

Level - the user's numeric level, which increases by collecting certain amounts of experience points

LEVEL UP SYSTEM
levels 1-5 Academy Level(15 experience per level)
levels 6-25 Gennin Level(30 experience per level)
levels 26-50 Chuunin Level(45 experience per level)
levels 51-80 Jounin Level(70 experience per level)
levels 81-100 Elite Jounin Level(95 experience per level)
levels 101+ S Class Level(125 experience per level to infinity levels)

Experience Points - The points that show how close someone is to leveling up. ALL In-Character missions, battles(win gives more than loss), events, jutsu training, and generic experience training can give exp.

MISSIONS
Missions
D rank - 20 exp
C rank - 30 exp(plus combat exp)
B rank - 50 exp(plus combat exp)
A rank - 85 exp(plus combat exp)
S rank - 100 exp(plus combat exp)

BATTLES
staff discretion. Based upon quality of play, the respective levels of the fighers(lower getting more than a higher level character) and strategy/originality.

EVENTS
C rank - 50 exp(plus whatever else might pop up)
B rank - 75 exp(plus whatever else might pop up)
*A rank - 100 exp(plus whatever else might pop up)
S rank - 150 exp(plus whatever else might pop up)
*an inter-village war is considered an A ranked event

JUTSU TRAINING
Jutsu training is done like experience training, but half of the exp that would go to the character, is taken instead for the jutsu.
E rank - 10 exp(200 words minimum)
D rank - 20 exp(400 words minimum)
C rank - 35 exp(700 words minimum)
B rank - 70 exp(1400 words minimum)
A rank - 100 exp(2000 words minimum)
S rank - 125 exp(2500 words minimum)

EXPERIENCE TRAINING
Experience Training is done by writing a personal or interpersonal role play post/series of posts. These posts are placed in a word program and word counted. The total experience gained is 10% of the total words in the post(s) rounded down. This number can be halved in the case of an extremely bad training thread, or doubled in the case of a quality thread. Threads are judged harshly, and an understanding of grammar and sentence structure on a high-school level is the bare minimum for a regular grade.
