Starter Kit and Level 10 Awakening
Starter Kit
Given once, the first time you join:
- 3 Kunai
- 16 Shuriken
- The Ninjutsu release. Its first skill node is learned for you, so it is yours and can cast at once.
Anything that doesn't fit in your inventory drops at your feet.
Clan Reveal at Level 10
Your clan is rolled when you reach level 10. Before that, the clan shows as "Unknown": "Your clan is a mystery for now. Reach level 10 to discover your bloodline."
When it is revealed:
- A title shows the clan's name with the subtitle "Your clan has been revealed".
- A challenge-complete sound plays.
- Chat says: "You were born a <clan>. Your bloodline, <tree>, sleeps: from level 25, being beaten near death in a fight may awaken it."
The Clans
- Uchiha (Sharingan), Hyuga (Byakugan), Senju (Wood Release), Mugen (Dust Release).
- Kaguya (Bone Release), Kisho (Crystal Release), Raijin (Storm Release), Kazan (Lava Release), Jiryoku (Magnet Release), Kagero (Scorch Release), Hayate (Swift Release), Kurayami (Dark Release), Tatsumaki (Typhoon Release).
- Joki (Boil Release), Bakuen (Explosion Release), Kotetsu (Steel Release), Yuki (Ice Release), Kami-E (Paper Release), Sumie (Ink Release).
- Nara (Shadow Release), Yamanaka (Yamanaka clan techniques), Inuzuka (Inuzuka Release), Aburame (bug techniques), Doronuma (Mud Release).
Blaze Release awakens with Sasuke's Mangekyo Sharingan.
Your First Nature
At the same moment, one of the five basic natures (Fire, Wind, Lightning, Earth or Water), picked at random, awakens in you directly, just as if you had its DNA injected. There is nothing to drink or carry to a Ninja Scientist: the nature is yours at once, its skill tree opens on the Jutsu page, and its release goes straight into your inventory. Chat says: "Your chakra stirs: <nature> has awakened in you. Its release is in your inventory."
- This first nature is your natural nature. It is the one a Natural Nature Release Reroll Token can swap (see Shinobi Menu: Jutsu, Clan and DNA).
- If you reached level 10 before this worked this way and have no basic nature yet, yours awakens the next time you join or respawn. If you still carry an old level-10 DNA gift vial, its nature is the one you get, and the vial is used up.
Your Releases
Every nature you awaken (the Ninjutsu release from the starter kit, your first nature at level 10 and any later ones) gives you its release item, bound to you:
- Only you can pick it up or use it.
- It can't be thrown away ("A release is part of you: it can't be thrown away.") and it doesn't drop when you die: you have it again when you respawn.
- It can't be put up in a trade.
- Lost releases come back. If a release is really lost (destroyed on the ground by lava, fire or the void, despawned, or lost on death), it is given back the next time you join or respawn, or at once if you are online. It goes into your inventory; if that is full, it waits on the ground at your feet ("Your inventory is full: your <release> is on the ground at your feet. Only you can pick it up."), where only you can pick it up and it never despawns.
- A release you put in a chest yourself is not lost: it stays where you left it.
