Weapon Capabilities
Greetings to All
Your neighborhood Witchdoctor here. Just like ninja, the weapons ninja utilize are also categorized in a ranking system, ranging from the most elementary to legendary. As well, weapons can have special abilities or properties, the greater available the higher the rank of the weapon. Due to the nature of these weapons, however, the most basic such as hand-sized kunai and shuriken cannot possess any special qualities. Puppets and poisons follow a slightly different system, albeit the idea is similar.
Rank | Properties | # of abilities |
E | Basic types of weaponry that generally consists of kunai, shuriken, senbon, explosive notes, basic arrows, etc. | N/A |
D | This type of weaponry is often times larger and more durable than E-ranks. They still however are marked by their general low quality and lack of comparable strength to other weapons. | N/A |
C | This type of weaponry is generally both larger and of better quality than those below it in rank. Their concepts are mostly basic and they are usually made from normal materials such as steel or iron. Also includes complex weapons and trinkets that would otherwise require custom fitting to use. | 1 |
B | It is at this rank that weaponry begins to shine in terms of ability, as such weapons of this level have two distinct pathways they can follow in terms of abilities. The first of these is quite simple in concept but incredibly powerful in application. At this level a weapon is capable of being made to be chakra conductive; this of course means that the weapon is capable of being utilized in higher ranking Jutsu which can extensively augment the power of said weapon. However, if a weapon is chakra conductive it is considered to be of the same quality as a C rank piece of weaponry. If a weapon of this rank is not chakra conductive it is allowed to be constructed of more advanced materials and by extension possess a wider range of capabilities, such as hidden compartments or otherwise useful tricks and gadgets. With the appropriate area of specialization these weapons may also contain written seals (equivalent to one's fūinjutsu specialization rank). | 2 |
A | Weapons at this rank begin to become truly advanced. They are able to be both durable and highly chakra conductive. As a result of their advanced level, they are able to possess high level abilities similar to that of various other techniques of equivalent rank. Although these weapons are made of high grade materials, the said materials should still be reasonable and be rather simple. This means no blades with diamond edges, titanium plating and tungsten core. With the appropriate area of specialization these weapons may also contain written seals (equivalent to one's fūinjutsu specialization rank). | 3 |
S | Weapons of this category begin to infringe upon the real of legendary as all things at this rank are classed. As such, weapons at this rank can be nigh on indestructible weapons and possess fantastical abilities, sometimes multiples of abilities, but within a reasonable set of boundaries. These weapons can be pretty much anything imaginable; provided they are not completely over-powered. They can be made from complex, high grade materials, that are also chakra conductive and seal compatible. That beings said the abilities and components of S-Rank Weaponry must be both reasonable and understandable, as such there is a following list of stipulations. S-rank weapons are unique in that the abilities are typical congruent with one another, meaning each ability bares some kind of connection with the others. The abilities of these weapons must also align themselves with the areas of specialization of their user. This means for example, someone with Bukijutsu and Fuinjutsu as their specialties could not have a blade that does the equivalent of placing an A-rank genjutsu on the foe, or inflict them with the symptoms of a fatal poison | 4 |
May you all become great weaponsmiths!
