[attr="class","APP3"]Hey there! I like the app overall, but there are some issues. Namely, one big one, but let's go over the small stuff first.
'Flaming Footsteps' at veteran will need to have something including requirements for fire release. Rookie would be fine.
I'd want a description of how the healing affects the user. Because it's like cauterizing, does it hurt? How much in comparison to the wound?
And I'll roll all my potential stuff with the GM into this next bit; Advanced Releases can't be Hijutsu and/or Clan involved. You could add a recommendation for an Advanced Release under Suggested, but otherwise this is going to need to be reworked. There are a few ways you could accomplish this, working in some kind of Katon Augmentation as part of your KKG would be particularly simple. Wouldn't particularly mind it being added without too much drawback or change, either - but I do want some mention of how their abilities last without sunlight. Get that done, and you'll be good to go!
Across the horizon, thrown back in time two weeks, reports of a tsunami on land came into the public consciousness. Rumors, tidbits of loose information; it was all everyone was talking about.
"The earth picked itself up and ran at me, I swear!" one concerned citizen could be found saying, "I saw it too! Massive, hulking boulders RUNNING!" another. Like wildfire, it spread, even to the furthest reaches of the continent. The terrifying, mystic walking rocks outside of Iwagakure.
Rhinoceros.
But today, two weeks later, with the world abuzz in their thought of them, only one seemed to remain. A hulking, massive thing - asleep quietly at the bottom of a quarry. Situated like a coliseum, walls slowly curved up, looming around it - completely flat. In the distance, travelers, specks of people; looking for the so-called 'tsunami'.
The beast's nose twitched, massive horn rising to greet the sun as it awoke. The smell of man bringing visible anger to its small, black eyes. Five feet tall on all fours, every inch was thick skin and muscle, a darkly stained horn rising from its skull. A snort as it stood, morning dew dripping off.
"And what will these ones bring?" it brooded, slowly moving towards the scent. "Some fun, I hope."
Welcome to September's Summon Event! This time around, rhinos will be up for contest! This event will be open for all characters, but be careful; straying too far from home can still be dangerous.
RULES
The event runner will post once per week, starting at the date of this initial post. If your post is not made during this time period, you will need to DM staff and let them know ahead of time. Failure to do so will result in consequences for your character.
A maximum of 3 exemptions will be made per character for missed post rounds. Surpassing this will almost always result in the character's death.
Sign-Ups occur during the first round of posts; ie, the week after this post was made. Any new additions made after this will have their posts delete unless granted explicit permission.
This IS Death Enabled, meaning any character submitted has the chance to die. Classified as an event, you have the choice of EVENT or LOTTERY, affecting how creating your next character will go after your current one's death. More info on the basics of this can be found in Character Rules.
There are a maximum of 2 'victors' named for each summon event. These will be judged based on who has either subdued, or completed the task of, the creature at hand. In doing so, they will have the option to accept or deny, and any living members in the thread may choose to accept in their stead. For a substitute, first come, first serve.
There is no post order! As long as you post within the allotted time limit, your reply will be accepted at any time.
Have fun!
LOTTERY
Choosing to enter this lottery will forfeit the event-death penalty removal for your next character creation, instead allowing your next character to start with a Rookie-Level Summoning Contract Proficiency for rhinos in addition to their other starting skills - if no one successfully completes the event. This will be chosen at random from anyone who has chosen LOTTERY or EVENT.
To submit to the lottery, include LOTTERY in the notes, or at the bottom of your first post in this event. EVENT is purely opt out. There will only ever be one lottery winner per event.
CONTRACT
The contract rewarded to the victor of the event (or lottery) is below! Summoning contracts are a unique proficiency, allowing you to add a new summon each time they are ranked up. While a summoning contract can be advanced normally, they can also be advanced by winning another summon event! In doing so, you obtain an animal of the other event. Any character can summon up to two different species of animal.
The strength of the summon acquired is similar to the rank of your contract at the time. Your fifth summon will be a Master of its ability, while the first a Rookie. There is no Grand Master tier for summons. Note that larger summons consume greater amounts of chakra, but also possess much more chakra in turn.
