Skill Creation Rules and Template

Skills are unique traits shinobi learn through experience and training, the most common being advanced senses, or a greater proficiency in a field of jutsu.  To train a skill, one must do at minimum 1500 words of training to use it. Number may increase depending on the skill potency. All skills must be kept basic, we will not allow you to register a skill that boosts all jutsu power by hundreds of points, regardless of a large wordcount used to awaken the skill. Skills do not have a rank, but should be made with common sense for potency. 

-Know the difference between skills, and jutsu. If you have to do hand signs and it does its own effect, then it's a jutsu.

-Passive Skills cannot buff someone, the exception to this are skills grandfathered in however they may only raise one stat by one rank.

-Active skills that have a trigger, such as when you take so much damage blank happens, can boost ones stats, but no more than three stats by one rank.

-Skills may increase the ranks of a jutsu's power and speed however, but this does cap at SS.

-You can only have one active skill in play at a time.

-A skill is limited to only one ability, certain branch aspects can be added should the staff allow it. IE; A skill that increases your senses can in turn also increase your reaction time since it makes sense for them to go hand in hand.

-Skills cannot lower the chakra cost of jutsu.

-Passive amplifications to jutsu from skills cannot stack with others, you get the highest amplification and that's it.
