Rules and Guidelines

1. Favorite the roleplay, upvoting is unnecessary but appreciated. Take note that the more favorites and upvotes, the more applicants we’ll get.
2. The inactive sign is set to two weeks. Every two weeks after the first month of the roleplay, activity checks will be held. In the case you are inactive, you will be warned and given two days to get rid of your inactive sign. At the third offense, you will be removed automatically.
3. Post in the hiatus room if you are going on a hiatus. Hiatuses may last for two months and semi-hiatuses for one month.
4. OOC drama will not be tolerated. Admins will take action depending on the severity. Punishments may be as minor as a warning or as severe as expulsion from the roleplay. Your character may also be stripped of privileges (i.e., dropped a rank, stripped of summoning techniques, and if you’re a Jinchuriki, Sannin, or Kekkai Genkai user, stripped of those titles).
5. All ualities allowed, however, the main idea of this roleplay is not finding a relationship. Do not face-chase; if we find you to be constantly roleplaying with a certain, exclusive set of people, you will be warned.
6. This is a thirdpov only roleplay. One-liners are discouraged -- keep your posts at least five sentences long. Wall-to-wall roleplaying is discouraged, but allowed in the case you have nowhere to roleplay (i.e., a room has not been created for you or you’re already roleplaying in all the rooms [in which case, good luck with that]).
7. is not allowed under any circumstance. Male pregnancy is also not allowed. Suicide is only allowed in situations similar to this. (SPOILER ALERT). is allowed in rooms rated [M] and walls. Cursing is allowed anywhere.
8. God-modding and powerplaying is strictly prohibited. A three strikes system will be used.
9. Be realistic. Prodigal statuses are discouraged unless given permission. We do this because we do not want anybody flexing their position and abusing their powers.
10. One character only. There are limited spots in each clan, some more-so than the others. Also, note that some clans have been invented to maintain as much balance possible within the Lands.
11. Kekkai Genkais, Jinchurikis, and Sannin will be hand-picked by admins. Once again, this is so that powers will not be abused.

PROMPT;
Assume you and your comrade have been assigned an S-Rank mission. You are responsible for spying on the enemy and your comrade is responsible for setting up a perimeter of explosive tags around the enemy headquarters. If the opportunity presents itself, you are to confront and combat the enemy, leading them to the location where the explosive tags are rigged. However, your friend does not return. You are not supposed to abandon your station and, upon the emergence of the enemy, you successfully attract their attention and escape, ensuring their arrival at the designated location. However, once there, you discover your comrade is surrounded, suffering from a fatal injury, and the enemy coordinated an ambush. You have no back-up, but there is an opening in the enemy forces.
You are presented with several choices:
a) Stay and fight, risking your life for your comrade’s in an attempt to succeed the mission and protect your village.
b) Create a diversion and attempt to rescue your friend, bringing them to the village for medical treatment.
c) Flee, hoping that you’ll attract the attention of the enemy and allow your friend enough time to escape back to the village. You intend to return to the village if you manage to escape.
d) Attempt to bargain with the enemy. You and your comrade’s safety in exchange for the information they desire.
e) Flee, intending to abandon your friend. You do not intend to return to the village and choose to defect.

EXAMPLE PROMPT REPLY;
Prompt Reply; Shizumi scowled in discontent at the sight she came upon. The shinobi she had been paired with was lying in a helpless position on the floor, sputtering blood. That was exactly why Shizumi preferred lone missions but she could also see why the Mizukage paired her with someone: the enemies were beyond her level, especially considering the fact they easily rendered her comrade useless. Shizumi hastily made eye contact with her comrade, motioning to an opening in the enemy forces with her eyes. 'Flee at my call,' she mouthed as she begun a series of hand seals. A field of mist began to engulf the field, and just before the mist got too thick, Shizumi shouted to her comrade: "Now!" Her eyes tracked the hazy blur of her partner moving out, but despite raging shouts of protest and orders, it was impossible to see through the mist. She pulled out her blade, maneuvering quietly around the field. There wasn't too much time before the field of mist disappeared, and she was left with two options: kill as much as she could or escape herself and fail the mission. Remembering her comrade's condition and realizing he wouldn't get so far by himself, she scowled, sheathing her blade once more and silently exit the scene.
