Item’s and their applications
Many ninja throughout the world use various tools. Some are as simple and true as the basic Kunai, while others can be complex as legendary swords, or perhaps a radio designed to maintain contact with a team. Whatever the case is items are a large part of the universe and shall be explained somewhat deeply here.
Items cover a wide range of classifications, many of which are not the typical weapons that people think of within the ninja world, and almost anything can be an item. That being said it should be noted that not all items are usable by everyone, and only under extending circumstances will weapons “rank” requirements be ignored. Below is a guideline for what weapons typically go with what rank, just as a rough sketch for when you consider creating weapons. It should be noted the higher ranks can always use lower rank weapons, so no Jounin’s don’t magically lose the ability to hold Kunai’s later on.
Academy Student | Kunai, Shuriken, Senbon |
Genin | Sealing scrolls, Senbon umbrella’s, Fuuma Shuriken |
Chuunin | Katana’s, Paper bombs, Flakk Jackets |
Jounin | ”Bastard swords”, Legendary items, Advanced “items” |
Kage | Artifact level items |
These are guidelines for how items will typically be classified when created custom and even canonly. Typically the simpler the item the easier it will be for RPC’s to use them. Now below we shall list the canon items that are allowed to be used by any member along with a description for them, and rank requirements, however it should be noted as stated above there are some exceptions to the rank requirements. Killing someone allows you to use their items regardless of your current rank; the same can be said for an ally who is so beaten they are incapable of fighting. Items are not to be given out to those lower ranked, the only exception to this is in family cases, and that is typically an RPC to RPC basis. You should not expect them to be able to use said items effectively or as effective as if they were at that rank (unless advanced); this regards all cases previously stated above.

Academy Student
Name: Senbon
Requisition Rank: Academy Student
Weight: Weightless.
Description: Senbon are long, narrow needles that are used for piercing. They are generally made of iron, being so light weight they are generally negligible. The downside, however, to their light weight is that they are unable to be used for deflecting projectiles if thrown. They are extremely sharp but extremely brittle.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Shuriken
Requisition Rank: Academy Student
Weight: 35 grams
Description: For those shinobi that like a little more bang for their buck than the Senbon allows, there are the Shuriken. These bad boys, although heavier and thus more encumbering, are far more easily thrown and are larger, being able to be used as a small hand-blade. While they pierce more deeply than senbon, they are generally only useful as distractions, effective when aiming for locations such as eyes or for slashing at tendons. These are typically used as projectile weapons, able to knock off the trajectory of other shuriken and senbon with ease. They are generally made from iron.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Kunai
Requisition Rank: Academy Student
Weight: 225 Grams
Description: For those who want "Quality over Quantity," there is the handy dandy Kunai Knife. While very few of these may be held at a time, they are the shinobi's proto-tool. Their weight allows them to pierce quite deeply when thrown, making them useful for more than just a distraction and they are able to knock off the trajectory of most flying projectiles when thrown. When held by the grip, they can be used for many tasks. Climbing, digging, cutting, slashing, you name it. These are the go to tool of the Ninja Universe. They are generally made of steel or iron.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Goggles
Requisition Rank: Academy Student
Weight: Miniscule, likely weight-less.
Description: Goggles are the identifying item of an academy student. They are expected to be bought by the parents or guardians of the shinobi for the student to wear and they come in all types of colors and designs. Though they serve more purpose than a forehead protector, many shinobi discontinue their goggles after receiving their forehead protector as a sign of growing up.
Appearance: All types of sizes and shapes.
Genin Rank
Name: Forehead Protector
Requisition Rank: Genin +
Weight: Weightless
Description: The forehead protector is the headband that is worn by almost every ninja, composed of a metal plate engraved with the symbol of the ninja's Hidden Village, and normally a band of cloth which can be in different colours. The forehead protector is received once a ninja graduates from the Academy, and genin-level or higher ranked ninja are the only ones allowed to have and use them. They come in various styles and colors and can be worn in various different ways.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Sealing Scroll
Requisition Rank: Genin+
Weight: Depends on the size.
Description: Sealing Scrolls remain one of the most important pieces of equipment in a ninja's arsenal. Because of their size, multiple scrolls can be carried into battle in the front pouches of a flak jacket or in a pouch. Apart from its usage as a literature medium, the scroll can also be used by ninja to summon creatures, people and items to their aid. This will save space and prevent the sacrifice of a much needed piece of equipment which may be required later. Some techniques can also be stored in them. These can hold up to 100 items of 4 different type and nothing more.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Fuuma Shuriken
Requisition Rank: Genin+
Weight: 2250 Grams
Description: The Fuuma Shuriken is a large, four-bladed shuriken possessing pre-eminent sharpness and lethality. This type of shuriken is considered characteristic to the famous Fūma clan, after whom they were named and who possibly developed them. However, their use is not limited to this clan. Its four blades can be collapsed for easy storage, leading to its nickname Shadow Windmill.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Chuunin
Name: Flak Jacket
Requisition Rank: Chuunin+ (Lowered to Genin when in war-time)
Weight: about 9 or 10 Kg
Description: Flak jackets are a form of protective clothing designed to provide protection from such things as blunt-force trauma or even bladed weapons, shrapnel and other projectiles or weaponry. They are usually worn by chūnin and jōnin over their normal clothing in most villages, although the design varies among the villages and have also changed over time. The jackets are among the most iconic pieces of shinobi equipment. Most of them have pockets, which can be used to store scrolls and also allow a ninja to access them with only one hand.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Katana
Requisition Rank: Chuunin+
Weight: roughly 1 Kg.
Description: The katana is characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, slender, single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands. It has historically been associated with the samurai of feudal Japan and has become renowned for its sharpness and strength. It is made of steel, making it quite durable.
Appearance:- Spoiler:
Name: Explosive Tag
Requisition Rank: Chuunin+
Weight: Weightless
Description: An explosive tag is a piece of paper with a seal written down the middle. When placed by the user and chakra is infused into the seal, it will stick to whatever surface it is placed on and when a seal is made by the user, it will detonate like C-4. They are particularly versatile, allowing the user to rig an entire location to explode by setting up multiple tags all over the place. Additionally, due to their low weight and paper-like qualities, they can be hidden very well.
Appearance: A piece of paper with seals running down the middle.
As for Jounin+ weapons, they will be customs made by individual characters with unique abilities.
