Basic Ninjutsu[edit]
The fundamentals of all nature-infused ninjutsu, basic ninjutsu molds the raw chakra of a shinobi outside or inside their body.
Hand Seal Jutsu[edit]
Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu
Cost: 1 chakra per weapon
Requirements: Shuriken Jutsu
When you use the shuriken jutsu, you may spend chakra to instantly create a copy of the weapon thrown. This weapon disappears at the end of your turn.
Explosive Seal
Cost: 1+ Chakra
Casting Time: 60 seconds plus 10 for every 2 chakra spent (stacks with damage cost)
Range: Touch
Duration: 1 minute + 1 for every additional chakra spent (stacks with damage cost)
Material Component: Requires Ink or calligrapher's tools to draw the seal
You draw an explosive seal on your chosen surface, then infuse it with chakra. The seal explodes after 1 minute of being placed, unless triggered by you as a bonus action. The seal can also be given a condition (such as being touched or a creature coming within 20 ft. of it) after which it will explode.
Any creature within 20 ft. of the seal when it detonates must attempt a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they take 2d6 fire damage and are pushed back 10 feet. On a successful save, a creature takes half as much damage and isn't pushed back. A creature touching the seal as it detonates must make a Constitution saving throw at disadvantage instead of a Dexterity saving throw. You may increase the damage this jutsu deals by 1d6 for every 2 chakra spent to a maximum of 4d6
Exploding Flame Formation
Requirements: Explosive Seal
Cost: 3 chakra
Range: 30 feet
When you detonate an explosive seal you created within range, you slam your hand into the ground, causing the seals to wrap around your target. You may move the seal up to 10 ft., and any creatures targeted by it must attempt a Strength saving throw instead of a Dexterity or Constitution saving throw.
Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags
Requirements: Explosive Seal
Cost: 2 chakra
One creature of your choice that is controlled or charmed by you, including yourself, has their movement speed halved as they begin to exude explosive tag formulas. At the beginning of each of their turn until the creature is reduced to 0 hit points or ends this effect as an action, all creatures in a 10 foot radius of the creature, including the creature themselves, must attempt a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they take 3d6 + your Intelligence modifier fire damage. On a success, they take half as much damage.
Transformation
Cost: 1+ chakra
Duration: 1 hour per chakra point spent
As an action, you transform into a person, creature or non-magical object you have seen before or have a basic idea of, and become identical visibly to that image. Creatures must make an Investigation check against your save DC to notice that you aren't what you appear to be. If it saw you performing the Jutsu, it automatically succeeds. Your statistics remain the same. You can not become a light source, armor, tool, vehicle, or a creature with a different size category and you can not recreate a magical effect. You may undo this transformation as a bonus action.
When you gain the Ninja Speed feature, if you transform into a creature with a swimming or flying speed, you gain the speed up to your movement speed, however you do not gain any of the other characteristics of the creature, and are unable to use the Ninja Speed feature.
Combined Transformation
Requirements: Transformation
Cost: 10 chakra
Duration: Concentration, 1 minute per 10 chakra spent.
When you cast Transformation while touching a willing creature, you and the creature become a single creature or object. You are the largest creature's size category, and the combined creature has the best of either creature's features, proficiencies, and proficiency bonus and must maintain concentration to keep this active. The combined creature acts on your turn, and any damage it takes is dealt to whichever component creature has the highest hit points. A combined creature cannot combine with another creature.
Body Flicker
Cost: 3 chakra
As an action, your movement speed doubles until the beginning of your next turn. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
Basic Clone
Cost: 3 chakra
Requirements: Body Flicker
Among the most basic jutsu taught to shinobi, the effects of this jutsu are more akin to afterimages than true clones. As a bonus action, any creature that can see you must attempt an Intelligence saving throw. On a failure, attacks against you have disadvantage, and you have advantage on any saving throws they force you to attempt. On a success, they are no longer effected by this jutsu until it is recast. Creatures with blindsight, truesight, or that can sense magic or chakra have advantage on this saving throw, they may reroll this saving throw at the end of each of their turns. You must spend 1 chakra at the end of each of your turns to maintain this effect.
Paralysis Seal
Cost: 2+ Chakra
Casting Time: 60 seconds + 10 for every 2 chakra spent (stacks with range cost)
Range: Touch + 2 chakra for every additional 5 feet (can exceed duration limit in additional chakra)
Duration: 12 seconds + 2 chakra for every additional 6 seconds up to 1 minute (stacks with range cost)
Material Component: Requires Ink or calligrapher's tools to draw the seal
You draw a paralysis seal on your chosen surface then infuse it with Chakra. The seal triggers when it is touched or when you trigger it as a bonus action. The seal can also be given a condition (such as being touched or a creature coming within 20 ft. of it) after which it will be triggered. When triggered, each creature other than you within range must pass a Constitution saving throw or be stunned for the seal's duration. A creature touching the seal as it triggers must make a Constitution saving throw at disadvantage. At the end of each of its turns, the affected creature can make another Constitution saving throw. On a success, the creature is no longer affected by the seal. A creature under the effects of multiple seals makes saves on all of them at the end of each turn.
Smoke Seal
Cost: 4+ Chakra
Casting Time: 60 seconds plus 10 for every 2 chakra spent
Range: Touch
Material Component: Requires Ink or calligrapher's tools to draw the seal
You draw a smoke seal on your chosen surface, then infuse it with your chakra. As a bonus action, you may detonate the seal, causing a 20 ft. radius cloud of green smoke to appear centered on the tag that lasts for 1 minute. For any creature within this area it is considered heavily obscured beyond 5 ft.
Healing Seal
Cost: 1+ Chakra
Casting Time: 60 seconds plus 10 for every 2 chakra spent (stacks with healing cost)
Range: Touch
Material Component: Requires Ink or calligrapher's tools to draw the seal
You draw a healing seal on your chosen surface then infuse it with your Chakra. As a bonus action, you may cause one creature touching your seal receives healing pulse of chakra. When activated, each chosen creature within range regains for 1d6 hit points. You may cause any creature targeted by this jutsu to regain an additional 1d6 hit points for every 2 additional chakra spent to a maximum of 4d6.
Substitution
Cost 3+ Chakra
As a reaction, when you are hit by an attack and would take damage, you can lower the damage by 1d10 + Shinobi Level and teleport up to 15 ft. in any direction to an unoccupied space during which you take the Hide action. A log or other generic object is left in your place and you take any left-over damage from that attack. You can add an additional 1d10 per chakra point spent over the initial cost.
Shadow Clone
Cost: 4+ chakra per clone
As an action, you create up to three clones. Each clone created in this way counts as a different casting of this jutsu, but still only requires one action. Each clone has 5 hit points and the chakra spent creating it (this applies to things that would reduce the cost), a clone cannot have more chakra than your chakra point maximum divided by the number of clones (you included). The clones can take actions as normal, but do not benefit from the Extra Attack feature and can not take an action or bonus action on the turn they are created. You control them and they act on the same initiative as you. They last until they are reduced to 0 hit points, they expend all of their chakra, you dismiss them at will, or you fall unconscious. If the clone still has chakra when it dissipates, you regain any remaining chakra from the clone - 4 (minimum 0). Each clone is otherwise identical to you, including equipment, features, and any effects affecting you when you create the clone. You may choose if they benefit from any path features affecting you. Any effects with a limited number of uses, such as features that regain uses after a long or short rest or magic items with charges, are shared between all clones and you. If an effect would cause a clone to gain at least 1 level of exhaustion, including at the end of the effect's duration, the effect fails and the clone automatically dissipates. When a shadow clone dissipates, the main body receives any memories it has acquired as if it experienced it itself.
Clone Great Explosion
Requirements: Shadow Clone
Cost: 1 chakra
When you create a shadow clone, you may grant it a short timer, after which it explodes. This clone can exist for up to 4 rounds, as determined when you create it. It is most suggested to keep track of this with a d4. At the end of this clone's final turn, or when it is destroyed by any means other than being dispelled, every creature within 5 ft. of the clone must attempt a Dexterity saving throw. On a failure, they takes 2d8 fire damage. On a success, they take half as much damage. This also causes you to not regain the base chakra spent to create the clone.
Sealing Seal
Cost: 5+ Chakra
Casting Time: 60 seconds plus 10 for every 2 chakra spent (stacks with duration cost)
Duration: 1 minute + 1 for every 2 chakra spent
Material Component: Requires Ink or calligrapher's tools to draw the seal
You draw a sealing seal on your chosen surface then infuse it with your Chakra. The seal activates once touched. A creature touched by this seal must pass an Intelligence saving throw or lose the ability to cast spells or spend any resource (such as Ki, Chakra, Psi etc.) for 1 minute + 1 for every 2 additional chakra spent. They may attempt a Constitution saving throw at the end of each of their turns after their first, ending this effect early on a success.
Summoning Jutsu
Cost: An amount of chakra equal to three times the CR of the creature (minimum of 1), or twice the creature's level or CR if using PECR
You gain the ability to form contracts with creatures in order for you to summon them to assist you in combat.
You make a contract with a creature of your choice that isn't a humanoid. For the purpose of this contract, you have the ability to speak with the creature you wish to try and form the contract with. You may form contracts with a number of creatures equal to twice your Charisma modifier (minimum of 1). If you form a contract with a creature above this threshold, you must choose one creature to end your contract with.
As an action, you form the correct seals, take some of your own blood (often by biting the thumb), and place your hand on the ground. When done, your selected summon appears in the space you were in or a space within 5 ft. of you. The creature returns to where it was when it was summoned after 1 minute, when it is dismissed as an action or when it dismisses itself as an action.
If the creature is of size category Large or higher, it appears in the spot where you were standing and you are teleported on top of it. For instance, if you form a contract with a young red dragon or storm giant, you would be placed on the dragons back, the storm giants shoulder, or beside your summon.
Summoning: Quick Beheading
Requirements: Summoning Jutsu
Cost: 10 chakra
When you summon a creature using Summoning Jutsu, you accelerate it during the teleportation, allowing it to take one action the moment it is summoned.

The chosen space the creature is summoned in can be occupied by a creature with a size category smaller than the summon. The action the summon takes must be able to deal damage to this creature, and the summon has advantage if it is an attack roll or skill check, and the target has disadvantage on any saving throws the action causes. Regardless of if the action succeeds, the target is moved to the closest open space.
*Wicked Summoning Shield*
Requirements: Summoning Jutsu
Cost: 6 chakra and 5 hit points
This jutsu has ended more than one summoning contract, either as a result of death or distrust. As a reaction immediately before you would take damage, you quickly form your summoning seal, using the Summoning Jutsu while taking more damage than necessary in your rush. The summoned creature must be at least 1 size category larger than you. You summon it around yourself, effectively making the summon swallow you, causing it to automatically take the damage instead. If the creature does not have unique rules for swallowing creatures, you are blinded, restrained, and gain full cover from effects outside of the creature. The creature may regurgitate you as an action. If the creature dies while you are swallowed by it, you are no longer restrained.

Destruction of Evil Seal
Cost: 1 chakra

On a failure, their movement speed drops to 0 as the weapon holds them to the ground until they use their action to end this effect or this jutsu ends. As a bonus action while this is effecting a creature, you may end this jutsu to automatically deal the weapon's damage to the creature. A creature that has located this jutsu's weapon may end this jutsu as an action while touching it.
