all this bad blood here, won't you let it dry it's been cold for years, won't you let it lie CHAKRA: This is an essential life force that is required to perform any jutsus in the Naruto world. It's manipulated through a series of hand signs As an actual physical thing with multiple chakra points throughout the body, the largest one being in the heart, chakra is a limited source. When a shinobi uses up their chakra, they need time to replenish it, and can severely injure or even kill themselves if they use too much without resting and push themselves too far. As a reincarnation of Ōtsutsuki Indra, Sasuke's chakra is extremely powerful, with a larger reserve than most shinobi, and a heightened ability to control it, though it's noted that he's weaker in his control than Sakura and Naruto. TAIJUTSU: This is basically just martial arts skill and physical prowess. Sasuke is highly capable in hand-to-hand combat and can hold his own against multiple opponents and enemies who are much larger than him. He has a higher rate of speed than most in his world and uses it to his advantage regularly. It also makes his reaction time faster than most other fighters so he can dodge many attacks with what seems like ease. This ability is enhanced by his sharingan/rinnegan, which will be explained more in those sections. It's also speculated by Sakura that Sasuke had genetic manipulations done to him by Orochimaru when he was under his care that could have enhanced these abilities further as well, but canon never makes it clear if that's true. Sasuke can still be one upped by others and gets his ass kicked on the regular (Gaara, Rock Lee, and obviously Naruto, for quick examples), so he's far from invincible. He's just an above averagely skilled fighter. MEDICAL NINJUTSU/HEALTH: Sasuke's ability to control his chakra as well as the higher reserves he naturally has makes it so that he can heal faster than the average person. He learned the same basic medical ninjutsu as other shinobis when he was getting basic training, which allowed him to channel his chakra to heal more serious injuries when needed, whether his own or injuries in others. On top of that, he also does have confirmed manipulation from Orochimaru that made him immune to nearly all ingestible poisons. He is still impacted by poisons which are in gas forms and it is possible for him to end up poisoned by any toxins that are different from anything Orochimaru would have been unfamiliar with. Sasuke also gained increased healing ability when he was given Hagoromo's power in the final war, though unlike Naruto, he doesn't seem to choose to use it very much on others. Despite having these increased abilities, he is still vulnerable to injury, can be pretty easily killed if he's one-upped in battle, and he can't heal extreme or even fatal injuries in any way other than to barely keep himself alive until he gets help. Even when he is healed by those with more powerful medical ninjutsu, it takes several days before Sasuke is able to be back on his feet or have enough chakra reserves to be able to perform basic jutsus. SUMMONING TECHNIQUE: Sasuke can summon snakes to use in battle. He's used them for transportation, as shields, and also for use in binding jutsus to disable an opponent. He can also summon hawks, which he usually uses for sending messages, though he has also been seen summoning larger hawks to ride on during battle. His most impressive summon is Manda, a strong and extremely large snake who he had to create a blood seal with in order to summon him. After Manda dies, he is able to summon Aoda, who is much more loyal to him. He can also summon a large hawk named Garuda. BUKIJUTSU: This is literally just a section to say he's stupid good with weapons. He has the ability to infuse them with his own chakra, allowing him to make his sword or shuriken he is throwing to become covered in lightning or flame to deal extra damage to a target. He also creates what he calls the Lightning Flash Black Creation. This allows him to seal multiple kunai and shuriken into his bracelets which gives him the ability to summon large amounts during a battle as needed. NATURE TRANSFORMATIONS: These allow him to do various battle techniques that are rooted in the elements. Sasuke has control over all elements, but he has an affinity for fire and lightning releases specifically. He is skilled in the other releases, but they are not nearly as strong and so he doesn't tend to perform water, air, etc. unless he's using it to boost his fire and lightning techniques. He can use the lightning techniques to make him move faster as well, taking in the energy from the electricity and doing... something fancy with it, they actually don't explain it, it just makes him move at lightning speed. Get it??? Anyway, these jutsus include his family's Great Fireball Technique (he can literally breathe fire) and Chidori (turning his whole ass hand into lightning), which he learned from Kakashi. When he gets the Six Paths power in the final battle sequences of the war, he can make the lightning purple, but it doesn't seem to change anything about it. Fun fact, it's the same shade of purple as his stupid rope belt. I don't think that has any significance to this power section but it's good to know that he's got an aesthetic. SHARINGAN: The dōjutsu kekkei genkai of the Uchiha clan. It's considered one of the greatest dōjutsu in existence, along with the Byakguan and the Rinnegan. There's a lot of history there, but basically these eyes can kick ass, and the Sharingan in particular is manifested from emotional trauma, usually around someone they love dearly, so it holds a certain weight emotionally as well as for power. Sasuke's is exceptionally powerful compared to most others and he can use it to copy movements of whoever he is fighting against, track objects, and predict the movements of his opponents. He can also perform genjutsu with it, which can be used to create hallucinations, temporarily paralyze another person, dive into their memories or dreams and gain information, forcefully pulling information from another person, erasing memories, dispelling other genjutsus, and controlling beings with powerful chakra such as the Kyuubi. Sasuke awoke a mutated form of the Sharingan, the Mangekyō Sharingan, when his brother died. This form of Sharingan can make the user go blind unless they gain the eternal version, which Sasuke did once he gave in and took his brother's eyes in order to get this form. The eternal form also uses less chakra which tires Sasuke out less quickly when it's activated and to move with far more fluid movements at greater speed than he could before activating it. The Mangekyō Sharingan also allows him to use Amaterasu, a black flame that eternally burns, only going out once whatever it is burning is completely destroyed, or the user puts it out. Sasuke currently has the Mangekyō Sharingan in his right eye. SUSANO'O: Susano'o is a technique that comes from the Mangekyō Sharingan when it is awoken in both eyes, which Sasuke did before he got the Rinnegan in his left. Sasano'o is basically a manifestation of Sasuke's chakra, is bright purple in form, and looks like a giant samurai with multiple swords. It's an extension of his will and moves with his body, allowing him to fight extremely large beasts such as the Kyuubi or to have a chance at going up against much more powerful, god-like opponents. He is primarily used as a shield to block Sasuke from getting too much damage from much stronger attacks. He can also use it to shield others, such as when he wraps it around Naruto's Kyuubi chakra when they fight together, creating one cool looking Power Ranger worthy mother fucker. There's a somewhat natural limit to using Susano'o as the sharingan activation drains energy quicker than when he just uses his normal eye, and it also is exceptionally painful to use. He at one point describes it as causing pain in every single cell of his body and says it feels like he's being ripped apart. He's often left extremely exhausted by the use and only pulls it out when absolutely necessary. Normally Susano'o can become larger than skyscrapers, mimicking the size of more kaiju in Japanese films, but I would limit him to only being able to do his personal-sized version which can encompass three people. If he pulls out the full-sized version, he'll likely only be able to maintain it for one or two minutes before he'd collapse, which outside of when he had the Six Paths powers, was about how long he could canonly anyway. RINNEGAN: Sasuke awoke the Rinnegan in his left eye with the Six Paths' chakra. This is permanently active, unlike his sharigan, and so he usually covers it with his hair so people don't try and steal his eyes from him. Despite being active, so long as it is only in its base formation, without the three tomoe active, it doesn't drain any of his chakra or stamina from being active. It enhances his pattern recognition from his sharingan, decipher writing in code or foreign languages, and helps him to see invisible targets. He also has access to the Six Paths techniques, though we don't actually see him ever do so, so it's unclear how strong he would be with these techniques. SPACE-TIME JUTSU: Sasuke's unique ability with the Rinnegan involves being able to look into and manipulate space-time. He can use it to somewhat see into the future, usually by only a few seconds/minutes, but long enough to improve his reaction time ten-fold before something can occur. He can also use the Amenotejikara, which allows him to switch places with specific targets within a certain range. This can include switching places with a weapon he threw earlier in order to get out of range of an attack or to set a trap for an enemy, like the Fourth does with his Lightning Flash jutsu. However unlike the Fourth, he doesn't need a specific seal in order to switch places, he simply needs to have the weapon in visible range of his Rinnegan. He can also use this jutsu to travel between actual realities/create portals between universes and dimensions. CLONE TECHNIQUE: Sasuke can make up to eight clones of himself that he can use at once. It takes up a great deal of chakra and the more clones he makes, the more it drains him. He will feel and experience everything that his clone underwent the moment that it disappears and rejoins his chakra flow, which can be extremely disorienting or even damaging depending on the circumstances. Because of this, he doesn't do it very often. Clone techniques can be used to create a copy of himself with inanimate objects to trick enemies and unlike the Shadow Clone, he does not take the damage of this single clone when it's injured, making it less dangerous and draining. It's limited to only one copy at a time. He can also use clone techniques to alter his appearance, allowing him to look like anyone else if he wants to, or create an entirely new appearance (ala the Sexy no Jutsu Naruto does and that Sasuke will literally die before doing.) This can only be held temporarily and once he runs out of steam, he will revert to his own appearance. BLOOD POWERS (DEER COUNTRY): As I don't plan on weakening Sasuke's canon powers too significantly, his blood power manifestations won't be very major. Sasuke also already has time/reality alteration powers, so much of it will simply manifest through strengthening the ones listed above. It will also allow him jump through a limited type of portal like he can later in the series, and it doesn't allow him to leave the setting of the game. I will have it mirror is earliest canon manifestations, where he could go into pocket dimensions to escape explosions or aggressive attacks, but he stays in the same general universe, popping out a few seconds later when the attack is over. The only blood power that will manifest separately that he didn't have before will be telekinesis, which will give him the ability him to move objects short distances. This will allow him to pull a weapon towards him that is just out of reach or to somewhat help him with his missing arm, letting him hover an object beside him if he doesn't have his hand free to hold it. I'll have him discover this over time and he'll train to strengthen it once he realizes he has the power. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Character & Journal: Jin Guangyao
Opt-in: I think that I am down for JGY interacting with all of the powers! If I discover through RP that maybe he should avoid something, I will touch base with you again.
Character's IC fears/memories: His biggest fear at this point is having his murder of his sworn brother, Nie Mingjue, discovered! In the novel this happens both as a result of the pressure JGY is under to remove NMJ as one of his father's political rivals, and also because NMJ becomes increasingly violent and unstable due to how his spiritual weapon is affecting his dantian and mind. If Sasuke were to learn of this specific secret, I would also want the very visceral, very real fear that JGY experiences even at the sound of NMJ's voice to be visible, too. In his canon due in no small part to his own machinations nobody believes JGY when he states that he had no choice but to kill NMJ; it would be really good for someone to see that he genuinely feels this way.
