________________________________

5. TRAITS

Traits must be 1 Physical, 1 Mental, and 1 Spiritual. You cannot have 2+ of the same 'type' of trait. Each character starts with 1 trait and may gain 2 additional traits of different 'types' as they progress in their shinobi's career.


Rank Genin: 1 Trait [Choosable First Perk Between Physical, Mental, Spiritual]

Rank Chunin: 1 Granted free upon rp, Requires 2 dms, and least 1 admin to pass it through

Rank Jounin: 1 Granted free upon rp, Requires 2 dms, and least 1 admin to pass it through


Creating your own trait is easy. First you must state if it is Physical, Mental, or Spiritual. It must go along with your character, and must also be sent into the DM team for approval. Use these traits as guidelines. As you can see, there aren't many in combat traits. That's because that is what innates are for. Traits are usually used for out of combat situations. These are meant to just be fun, little key qualities to make your character stand out a tiny bit more. So please do keep that in mind. Have fun with it!
