Senjutsu
The ultimate level; Sage Mode.
"...Sage Mode. The connection between both physical and spiritual energy along with natural energy."
Senjutsu (仙術; Literally meaning "Sage Techniques") refers to a specialised field of techniques that allows the user to sense and then gather the natural energy (自然エネルギー, shizen enerugī) around a person. Senjutsu practitioners can then learn to draw the energy of nature inside of them blending it with their own chakra (created from spiritual and physical energy within the shinobi), adding a new dimension of power to the sage's chakra, resulting in the creation of "senjutsu chakra" (仙術チャクラ, senjutsu chakura).
This chakra cannot be seen by anyone other than those who have been trained in senjutsu. This new chakra enables the user to enter an empowered state called Sage Mode, which can then drastically increase the strength of all ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu. A person who is able to use senjutsu is called a sage (仙人, sennin).
The user is required to balance his/her physical and spiritual energy with the natural energy he/she gathers from nature. If the user puts too little natural energy into using senjutsu, the technique will not work. While gathering natural energy, the gatherer must remain absolutely still in order to be one with nature. If the practitioner can achieve a perfect balance between the physical and spiritual energies of their own chakra, and the energies of nature, they can produce a new and stronger chakra, called "senjutsu chakra".
Specializations || Senjutsu itself requires no specific base specializations; however, it cannot be a primary specialty. You must learn Senjutsu, either through the mentoring of a master Sage, or by finding the temple of the sage clan you wish to join.
Levels of Sage ||There are to be three levels of Sage abilitiy. These are acolyte, Sage, and Master.
- Acolytes are Sages in training. They have yet to master the arts of the sages, and as such have no access to Sage chakra or techniques. They are also in extreme danger during this period, as they lack the full control needed to harness Natural Chakra properly; and are therefore in danger of death at any moment.
- Sages are those that have mastered basic Senjutsu. They are able to draw upon Natural chakra to a degree; however their control is incomplete. Because of this, they are deformed while in Sage mode, with their bodies taking on animalistic features and are unable to unlock the full potential of Senjutsu.
- Masters are exactly that; those who have fully masted the arts of Senjutsu. These are the few and the far between, they who know the truth of the Sages and are able to safely harness the full might of the Sage. They carry the contracts of the Sage clans, and bare the knowledge of the techniques within. These are extremely powerful ninja in their own rights, and with the power of the Sage, they become nearly unstoppable forces of nature.
Location || Scattered
Requirements to become a Sage || This will differ with each contract; however, a few rules must be followed.
- Must be Special Jounin or higher, 5 S-rank missions, 15 A-rank missions, 2000 ryo, and Kage approval.
If you are to be trained by a Senjutsu Master, then you must post a thread with a word requirement of 3000 words or more in order to awaken Sage Mode. A total of 5000 addition word of training must be undertaken in order to fully master Sage Mode.
If not to be trained by a Senjutsu Master, then you must provide a 3000 word thread of you finding the contract for the Sage clan you wish to join. This may be undertaken alone, or in a group; however, the word count is not shared. Each member of the group must post at least 3000 words. Once the thread has been finished and approved; you must post a thread of 4500 words or more in which you travel to the Sage Temple and train there to awaken Sage mode. Beyond that, a final training of 6000 words or more is required to fully master Sage mode.
