A chain of mountains that would, by itself, garner many names. The Shogunate has instead chosen to save everyone a lot of time, and name the whole chain with pride; Mount Daimyaku. After each Genin graduation ceremony, the newly-promoted shinobi are taken up into this mountain pass, and subjected to what is normally a rigorous survival exercise, full of unknown hazards and troubles that they must survive as a team. This exercise is already shaping up to be quite...unusual. What will happen, I wonder?

Kai N. Yamanaka
Kai arrived at the mountains, apparently of the first to show up. Given the situation, he took the time to build his arsenal in case it turned out to be a survival or combat-oriented challenge, so that he might more easily perform. First he created 10 invisible kunai using the kyakko seals, tucking each away into seals across his body for convenience, then created eight more kyakko tags for miscilaneous usage. He even placed a kyakko seal on his sword, Mind-Render. In terms of preparation, he was now as he'd ever be.
Sumiko appeared in a swirl of leaves like some Kakashi badass mofo. She appeared at the base of a small tree, her attire far different that the clothing she wore in the village. She wore the dark colored flak jacket used by most of the higher ranking ninja with an all black jump suit underneath. On her left arm was a white arm band with a red cross on it. Her hair was tied back into a bun on her head, held partially in place by her headband. Black face paint marred her near perfect complexion. A small backpack hung limply from her shoulder, packed with a few essential supplies and a number of scrolls. In place of the smaller pouch that most shinobi wore on the back of their belt, Sumiko wore a large surgical pack, filled with enough small tools and medicine to run a small hospital.
Sumiko noticed that Kai had arrived already. He seemed to be preparing himself right away for combat, which was a wise decision. She guessed her lesson about life not being fair had actually meant something. Sumiko turned her attention away from him, carving a small seal into the tree behind her.

Harumi appeared in a puff of smoke with a thunderous drum roll. Confetti exploded into the air as the cloud of smoke disappeared. "Presenting the Mysterious, the Stupendous, the Magnificent Harumi!" Moments later the smoke would clear completely, leaving no sign that she had done anything of the sort.
NO HANDSEALS -- Because of the ease of use for elemental jutsu of their element, the do not need hand signs for jutsu of their element. RANK INCREASE -- Sage Classmen gain a +1 in the strength of their chosen Sage element BLOOD OF IRON -- This allows the user to manipulate iron sand in the area around them that they unearth or create. This is heavier than sand techniques, and can be used to neutralize them with techniques. The amount manipulated varies by rank, and this amount is always with them, be it in a gold, in the ground below, or however. This amount cannot exceed the amount that is allowed to be manipulated at that rank. The speed of the sand is one higher than your speed if using hands to manipulate it, or your speed normally. It is as strong as you are as well. REGEN -- +5 chakra regen per post. ONI'S BLOOD -- The Magician's connection to natural energy gives them the ability to detect movements in the flow of natural energy around them. This gives the Magicians a very high level of perception, allowing them to recognize incoming masses of chakra, as well as detecting the flow of energy within the bodies of their opponents to gain insight on their next moves. Similarly to the Rinnegan, this means that enemies with higher chakra signatures are more easily combated, as the movements in their chakra are much easier to detect. This also means that enemies with higher chakra levels can be sensed from further away. CAN I BORROW AN ASSISTANT FROM THE CROWD? -- Along with their ability to sense chakra, the natural energy connection allows the Magicians to have a personalized companion, typically an animal. This animal must be applied for within the pet applications--or right away with the bloodline application--and is subject to review from the regular summon/pet approver. If the Magician is willing to part with their ability to summon other hierarchies on the traditional summoning list, they may choose to have one much more powerful familiar, complete with a sage mode of its own. The sage mode--however--must at least mirror the current standard of sage modes in the guild, no stronger. Whereas the single summoned familiar may be more powerful than a boss summon, as it is the only summonable companion they get. if their outside chakra source is destroyed, so is their connection to this companion. Like the chakra source, this disconnection is only temporary, and can be repaired outside of battle.
Appearing from within the tree nearest to Sumiko, Kuhaku allowed his piercing golden eyes to dance over the three people currently standing near the base of the mountain briefly, it would seem that so far only two genin had shown up, although Sumiko was currently etching some kind of marking into the tree he'd come out of. Thankfully he came from a different side from where she was carving, so he didn't have a giant mark carved into him. Reaching up scratch the back of his head the male let out a bored sigh before leaning back against the tree, crossing his arms over his chest. "Yo Sumiko, any clue what we're going to be doing here? I didn't get much information from Kat before I came here." His eyes shifted to the two genin standing to the side, looking them up and down for a second before shaking his head silently. Whatever they were doing here involved the genin, meaning it was most likely some kind of test regarding them. Looking at his cousin Harumi the blue-haired male waved lazily, having met her a few times before while training in his Magician skills during his time as a Chuunin.

From the tree both of the Jounin were so close to, a crackling noise would quickly alert them to the presence of an earthen note, which seemed to sprout right from the tree. The writing was that of their shogun, and it bore very clear instructions for the two of them to follow, and quickly. As for Eiji himself...he was taking care of some business. Without warning, a vicious rumbling would overtake the mountain, warning everyone to what seemed to be a dangerous presence above. However, nothing came tumbling or crashing down the mountain, and after just a few minutes of anxious waiting, the group would realize that no danger would come to them.
However, the obligatory speaker system in the back would sound, "Shinobi, be advised, Zones two and three are for training. Zone one is off limits. Repeat. Zone one is off limits." This alert would sound once every fifteen minutes in the attempt to warn anyone who decided to venture up the mountain. Zones two and three spanned a large portion of the mountain chain, so they were easily accessible to even the general public, if they wished to see what kind of trials their shinobi protectors had undergone. Zone one, however...it was much smaller, restricted to just one mountain of the multi-mountain chain. The village higher-ups understood why the first zone was off limits. However, the rest of the Genin would have to be educated on this, just to make sure that their knowledge was fully reinforced. No one was to enter the first zone under any circumstances. In the past, Ejii had even marked this with the death penalty, and likely wouldn't be afraid to do it again.
The Jounin's orders were simple; get to the top of the mountain and prepare. The others would start their journey from the bottom, as usual.
• Incarna Demona The ability to manipulate the time specifically around the user's body, severing their connection to the time of the current world. This can be used to heavily increase the user's speed, or heavily reduce the opponent's speed if used with chakra. Objects are also effected by this. This increases in power as the user ranks up: +1 at Chuunin, +2 at Jounin. To use this on the opponent, you must sacrifice the cost of the rank being used on them; ie, A rank chakra for a -2 slow. You can also use this on allies for positive effect, but as stated in the rules, this ability can only be used on one person at a time. This is considered a base buff or debuff.
• Dragon's Blood Being related to the Divine Beasts, the Genuire are draconian in their own right. Many of them actually develop the traits of a Divine Beast. This ability in particular allows for Genuire bloodline users to perceive natural energy due to their connection with the spiritual and animal forces. It is a long-range perception that can judge incoming masses of chakra and can also project their energy through these channelways, allowing them to send techniques across long expanses to attack enemies from afar. This is an ability mostly good for assassination. This cannot be used to detect genjutsu, but it can tell that a technique is being used. It also cannot release you from genjutsu.
• Joukai can manipulate techniques they've used. For example, if you shoot a beam of light, you can change its trajectory/path. If you shoot a ball of light, you can move it manually. At lower ranks, you must use your palm to manipulate the trajectory. Once you reach Jounin, you can do it with your mind, almost like telekinesis. Also, all light techniques can be focused; for example, a large and wide explosion of light can instead be decreased in size but increased in precision and heat. Essentially, you'd be turning it into a more accurate death ray.
• Every seven posts, you can phase out into light. This is essentially a very short (two second long) ability that lets you turn into light every so often. It doesn't cost any chakra. You can travel a distance of up to twenty feet while phased.
• You're immune to being blinded. You cannot be blinded by any means or even reduced in vision. The light is always present in your eyes. Furthermore, you can manifest light in external places, and burn them. For example, if you were to mark a location (as simple as pointing your palm at it), which would give it a golden lock-on symbol, you could transport your light techniques to that location. However, this is not a targeting system, and the light will not suddenly lock on to a target if it's moving. It's as simple as; if an enemy is standing in one place, you can almost instantaneously transport light to them, although it's really obvious since you have to lock onto them (which visibly floats in the air). It takes over a second to lock on, so anyone with a decent reaction time can easily get out of the way.

[Otogakure] - [Genin] - [Hyuuga] - [Magician]
Little Izuru arrived eventually, having had to leave a fight that had just begun for whatever reason.
»Chakra: 130/130 »Speed: 7 »Strength: 8 »Passives: • 5 Chakra Regen per post • May use one Taijutsu style for free and gain stats, may learn one additional taijutsu style. • Direct hits on the opponent take away [10] chakra points. When hitting an opponent with Hyuuga techniques, 10% of the usual chakra drain is applied. For example, using the complete 8 Trigrams 64 Palms on an opponent will take 64 points as opposed to 640. • Expel Hyuuga members have an intense control over their own chakra system, allowing them to expel chakra from any point on their body with a simple thought. This can be enough to break most ropes, and anyone holding onto them may also have the chakra points in their hands closed when the chakra is expelled. • Oni's Blood The Magician's connection to natural energy gives them the ability to detect movements in the flow of natural energy around them. This gives the Magicians a very high level of perception, allowing them to recognize incoming masses of chakra, as well as detecting the flow of energy within the bodies of their opponents to gain insight on their next moves. Similarly to the Rinnegan, this means that enemies with higher chakra signatures are more easily combated, as the movements in their chakra are much easier to detect. This also means that enemies with higher chakra levels can be sensed from further away. • Can I Borrow an Assistant from the Crowd? Along with their ability to sense chakra, the natural energy connection allows the Magicians to have a personalized companion, typically an animal. This animal must be applied for within the pet applications--or right away with the bloodline application--and is subject to review from the regular summon/pet approver. If the Magician is willing to part with their ability to summon other hierarchies on the traditional summoning list, they may choose to have one much more powerful familiar, complete with a sage mode of its own. The sage mode--however--must at least mirror the current standard of sage modes in the guild, no stronger. Whereas the single summoned familiar may be more powerful than a boss summon, as it is the only summonable companion they get. if their outside chakra source is destroyed, so is their connection to this companion. Like the chakra source, this disconnection is only temporary, and can be repaired outside of battle. • Dragon Breathing Technique The user's breathing further capitalizes on their strength and allows them to stand their ground against attacks that would, normally, knock them on the floor. As long as the user can breathe, their feet will not leave the ground unless they are dislodged by a force far greater than them, such as violent winds that rip trees from the ground, or the forces of gravity. • Enduring Soul The user, after training under intense circumstances, can withstand four times the amount of weight their body holds, and lift twice their body weight with one arm. Lifting four times the weight of the body requires both arms, and will, essentially, make the user unable to move while it strains their body. That being said, that can endure massive amounts of pressure very early on, meaning that most hits will not faze them when combined with the Dragon Breathing Technique. They can still be damaged and die, but they will never cease their advance. • We're just getting started! This ability takes away the user's ability to attack for the post they're doing it. They taunt the enemy, lowering their guard so they can gather latent energy from resting. Even though they can't attack, they can dodge, which might be just enough. For every time this power is used, every jutsu is locked, but the user regains 5 points of chakra if they don't get hit in the post where they taunted the enemy. • Heavy Stander The user can be pushed back, but they now grip the ground much better and are difficult to move. Users that have learned Heavy Stander also have a hard time losing their balance or getting dizzy. This removes the ability to feel nauseous given that the user is trained enough in standing under so much pressure that their bodies have acclimated to the feeling of sickness. Combined with Enduring Soul and the Dragon Breathing Technique, the user has the freedom to choose where they're standing. They still take damage, but moving them is a feat that not many can achieve.

Following along with his fellow genin, Koshu appeared with a bored look on his face, hands in his pockets as he did so. ""
Passives • [BLOODLINE] Sharingan Perception While the Sharingan is active, the wielder is able to see even the slightest movements made by their targets, making them near impossible to trick with a sleight of hands move; this includes being able to see chakra, even underground. • [BLOODLINE] Jutsu Mimicry While in battle, the Sharingan can let the wielder mimic a jutsu that was used in the previous post as long as the wielder may use that jutsu for an additional 50% chakra. The user may mimic a jutsu that is not of an element they possess, as long as it is below their rank, for double the chakra cost. Any jutsu mimicked lose 1 rank in power • [BLOODLINE] Jutsu Copying While observing a jutsu be performed, the Sharingan may copy the chakra patterns used to perform the jutsu, allowing the wielder to gain instant knowledge of how to perform the jutsu. In order to learn the jutsu, it must be a jutsu the user is normally able to perform, meaning only jutsu of their element, clan, or bloodline. Uchiha are able to copy one element outside of the ones they know, but it must be within the five main elements. • [BLOODLINE] Genjutsu Identification Due to the ability to see one's chakra flow, the wielder of the sharingan may see when one's flow is being disrupted by a genjutsu or tell when they themselves are under one, allowing them to break out of them easier. • [BLOODLINE] Class Upgrades (Natural Users Only -- No Implants - Can only be received once, no getting upgrades from multiple bloodlines): Since the Uchiha are considered geniuses at most everything they do, it's inferred that they're slightly better at what they do than those around them. As such, depending on the class of the Uchiha member, they gain a specific bonus for their character: • [BLOODLINE] Weapon Master/Tajiutsu/Samurai And the ability to create a custom weapon/tai style emphasized around the use of the Sharingan. May be slightly stronger than your typical physical style. • [BLOODLINE] Ridiculously hard bones, and therefore almost invincible bodies at Sannin/Kage • [BLOODLINE] +1/+1, physicality allows them to use one style for free. • [BLOODLINE] Your bones aren't the only part of your body that are resistant. Your skin and flesh are both highly invulnerable to a certain level of physical and elemental damage. Your skin feels and acts like stone; it's like a hard outer shell that defends you. You can have a sword lodged into your throat but from the average ninja, it'd take many seconds to pierce all the way through. You're a moving tank. When you've mastered Senpou Kaguya, your skin becomes as tough as corundum. • [BLOODLINE] You have enhanced perception, and for good reason. Kaguya train their whole lives to dominate melee, so they are better than most others at predicting attacks and perceiving the enemy's movements. Dance of the Larch Passive • [BLOODLINE] Karamatsu no Mai is a form of Taijutsu developed by Kimimaro to take advantage of his cursed seal and bloodline ability. It is the third of five dance forms. After activating the level one cursed seal form, Kimimaro will begin to extend multiple bones from his body. Both from his rib cage and his radius and ulna. Because they are hard as steel (and can be as hard as hyper diamond at Kage), these bones can act as a strong defensive mechanism against incoming strikes. Due to this they will also serve as an offensive attack to allow Kimimaro to move with little effort to impale his opponent. • [CLASS] Physical Toughness -- The Taijutsu class not only teaches you to ignore pain, but can also make you immune to damage from weak attacks, based on your rank, making you almost immune to damage 2 ranks below you:
Chuunin taijutsu classmen are immune to academy jutsu damage Jounin taijutsu classmen are immune to genin jutsu damage Sannin taijutsu classmen are immune to chuunin jutsu damage Kage taijutsu classmen are immune to jounin jutsu damage
Anything lower than that rank also applies.

Kai N. Yamanaka
Kai heard the instructions, and figured he'd start up the mountain on his own. No point in waiting around, and perhaps whatever threat that would turn this into 'training' would draw itself towards the larger groups than little Kai Yamanaka.

Where is Hana? Ayura questioned to himself as he walked up the base of the mountain where the sizable amount of ninja were already gathering. From his knowledge, most of them were Genin save the few Jonin and the Shogun. With a grunt, Ayura had a small pillar of stone rise from the ground before he sat on it. All he really wanted to do was stay near Hana, that was what he should be doing. Even with the crowd around him, Ayura didn't care about them too much. They were ninja, they had duties, so they would all follow them. There wasn't a point in getting overly friendly if duties got in the way of friendship. So for now, Ayura yawned and crossed his legs, his right elbow sat on his crossed leg while his face rested in his palm. With the other hand he tugged the hood up around his head while a few strands of blond and colored hair fell free, glinting along with headband around his neck.

Don't ask how, but Hana was somehow ahead of Ayura. In fact, she was already climbing the mountain and Ayura would probably see her small, jacketed form clambering up when she got high enough. Always the go-getter, she saw a mountain, knew that she had to climb it, and wanted to start on it right away. She knew Ayura would catch up to her easily enough. He had long legs and there was bound to be at least one part of the climb that Hana was too short for.
A mysterious vortex appeared around Kai and Hana, creating a temporal rift that teleported them back to the rest of the Gennin. It would do no harm, but if they attempted to move up the mountain again, they would find that they would not be able to proceed until the Jounin had left the area so that they could actually prepare their defenses and because the Shogun hadn't arrived yet either technically and he probably had some boring monologue prepared for them.

Solarius flare
Go-getter Hana wasn't allowed to go get much. A mysterious portal poofed her off the mountain and back to its base. The sudden journey surprised her, but as she grew up among Uzumakis, it was hardly her first time experiencing such a teleporting act.
Conveniently enough, the portal was nice enough to place Hana right next to Ayura. "So Ayura...," she tried explaining herself even though Ayura had yet to say anything, "I tried to get a head start on the mountain, but I don't think we're allowed to go up yet. Eheheheh."
Zephyr had appeared just in time to hear the announcement to not go to zone one. Well, he decided they would need time to get things ready so he stood still at the base of the mountain. He wondered what was going on. This was all such a bore.
