Question:
Was the ability to activate Byakugan and etc. similar abilities outside of combat for a small period of time for less Chakra ever implemented?
Maybe I was dreaming of all us talking about the idea. _________________ Baka.

and it can be drawn as a free action.
Also, I find it amusing that if the update had been made one day earlier, two updates in a row would have been made on a Friday 13th. |

But you have to sacrifice your middle finger to use it, which means you can't use a bow very well after that. Oh well, there are always shuriken and kunai I suppose. _________________ Fighting is foolish for in the end, when all your enemies are gone, there is no one to fight but yourself.

No, it's just called not being a dumb when you draw it out.
I mean, people store guns in their waistbands but rarely shoot
themselves. Not that I encourage such carelessness mind you. _________________

Eh? I was referring to the fact that the Assassins in Assassins Creed all have their middle fingers cut off so that they can use the hidden blade. The blade that comes out, I assume with a spring loaded mechanism, is placed so that it fits perfectly between the index and ring finger. The middle finger is cut off so that you don't always have to pull your hand back to stab someone with it, instead you can sort of punch them with the blade. Punching instead of stabbing with the blade would probably have more velocity behind it since a fist has less drag than a hand pulled back, thus it would be more effective. Having to pull your hand back every time you use the blade would make the attack fairly predictable. Also, without the middle finger you could grapple and trigger the the blade to stab as well, say choke and cut the carotid artery or jugular vein and have him bleed out as you choke him. By the way, if you were just joking and already knew this, ignore this, I am dumb then. _________________ Fighting is foolish for in the end, when all your enemies are gone, there is no one to fight but yourself.

Frankto, I've been reading up on Pathfinder a lot recently, and have also been running a Drow game set in the Realms via Pathfinder, and there are some things I like that I think Nd20 may benefit from. Mainly just Balance and Tumble being melded into the Acrobatics skill, Hide and Move Silently being combined into Stealth and also Listen, Spot and Search being combined into Perception. The idea, as I understand it, is that when you're trained in the arts of Stealth, or how to best notice/perceive the world around you, or how to control your body's movements better, you don't just train in one aspect. Essentially, when ninja train in stealth, the don't just learn how to stand in one place and remain hidden (for example). Not saying you should implement these changes, but it is something to chew on for a while. _________________ "I'm no ordinary pervert... I'm a SUPER PERVERT!!!"

While I can see and enjoy the merits of the system, that is a fundamental change that I will never make for d20 Modern, in the same way that I'll never change Fortitude saves to Fortitude defense to fix the saving throws system, or the way I'll never remove basic classes.
Because then it's not d20 Modern anymore. _________________ "It's like making a cake, but instead of a cake it's a game and instead of frosting I have no life."

Thank god. The day Naruto D20 starts to merge with 4E will be the day i'll stop playing it.

Fair enough, just didn't see anyone mentioning it on the boards, so I decided to toss in my two cents. I wouldn't think of suggesting anything to make it like 4E, even though 4E is wicked fun to play... Just not as fun to run, but still good. _________________ "I'm no ordinary pervert...

Well, Konoha has two and the rest of the world has none. No, I'm not talking about incredibly well endowed women, but in fact of Sharingan/Byakugan-ish bloodlines.
So I decided the rest of the world deserved one as well. Enter the Keirigan, a bloodline that allows you to see the weakness and the breaking point of anything, from an object to a person to an attack or defense.
You can download the new bloodline, and additional bloodlines as well HERE.
Tell me which ones you think should make the main file, which ones shouldn't. The Bewitching Eye almost certainly won't make the cut. The rest are more likely. At least once I find a better name for the Laser Eye. _________________ "It's like making a cake, but instead of a cake it's a game and instead of frosting I have no life."

Further thoughts: I'm going to even out Elementalist and Genjutsu Master stats table (BAB, saves, rep and defense) since they're meant to be even, but I don't know if I should buff Genjutsu Master or nerf Elementalist. Thoughts?
Elementalist has 1 perfect, 1 good, 1 poor saves and 3/4 BAB with +4 def and +3 rep.
Genjutsu Master has 1 perfect, 2 poor saves, 1/2 BAB with +4 def and +3 rep. _________________ "It's like making a cake, but instead of a cake it's a game and instead of frosting I have no life."

I don't see a problem with lowering the Elementalist's BAB. The two I built certainly didn't use theirs very often. _________________ Be careful when you follow the masses, because sometimes the 'm' is silent. |

I don't like 1/2 BAB for ND20 much because of class defense. I'll consider it anyway. _________________ "It's like making a cake, but instead of a cake it's a game and instead of frosting I have no life."

The bloodlines look good. I would personally pick Keirigan or Laser Eye to put into the d20. Laser Eye should also have a different name like Predator Vision Eye . But the only thing i would change is when the person is using heat vision ability i would think he would suffer a penalty to attack rolls or defense as i have seen through heat vision cameras and it is kind of hard to do things if you are looking through it. _________________ "Arrr!"

That's only because you're not used to it. A person properly trained and instructed in its uses and functionality would be unlikely to suffer the same difficulties. _________________ Oy, this is going to be troublesome *sigh* |

Praise be!
Got'ta love new jutsus.
I really need to think of a few more genjutsu - for some reason it seems like there is a short supply...
I guess that is to be expected though. Ninjutsu has so many different aspects, and Genjutsu doesn't really share that same quality. Makes it seem lacking when I go over techniques sometimes.
