Rinnegan - One who possesses the Rinnegan has access to a multitude of abilities, such as the ability to possess and use all six types of nature transformations and the capacity to use any technique. The Rinnegan allows the user to see Chakra, or mana, including points where Chakra, or mana is gathered, as well as otherwise invisible barriers. However, the Rinnegan's field of vision can be blocked by simple means such as smoke bombs.

The Deva Path (天道, Tendō), which allows one to manipulate both attractive and repulsive forces.
Shinra Tensei - Ability to Manipulate Repulsive Force at the user's will to push matter or techniques away. Depending on the amount of force the sage puts into this technique, it can easily shatter wood, bones, metal, or stone walls. By using this technique as a defensive measure, attacks directed at the user will be deflected, spiritual or physical, no matter the size, nature, power or mass. It can also be used to repel flames caught on the sage's body.
The force that can be pushed Scales with 25 x Wisdom modifier pounds per every second level(2,4,6,8,10...) of the user. Once this technique is used, there is a short period of time in which it, as well as other Deva Path Techniques, are rendered unusable. The minimal time period is about five seconds, or one round, however this varies depending on the amount of power put into the attack. If at full power this takes 1d3 rounds to recover.
This can also be used on a much larger scale for massive destruction. A massive amount of repulsive force is placed above the target, crushing everything beneath in an enormous explosion.
If the sage succeeds a concentration check (DC 20) the sage can double the force of his Shinra Tensei or Banshō Ten'in
The force increases to a x10 at level 5, x15 at level 10, x20 at level 15, and x25 at level 20
Distance that the target will fly is determined by force - target's weight.
Target Takes Damage if repelled into a wall or the ground, taking xd6 damage where x is the amount of distance left to fly divided by 50. (Reflex (10 + Wisdom Mod + Half level) to half the distance flown) This damage becomes xd8 at level 10, and a d10 at level 15.
This technique can be countered to some degree if faced with an equal and opposing force, or if the person to whom the attack is directed can barricade themselves to withstand the force.
Ability Examples:
Shinra Tensei - Repulsion - The sage emits a repulsion bubble around him anyone within 5ft receives full power, at 10ft half power, and anyone at 15ft or greater is unaffected. This blast sends everyone surrounding the sage backwards at the allotted force.
Shinra Tensei - Projectiles - At the 6th Level the sage gains the ability to stop the movement of any projectile(Reflex save 15 + opposed enemy dex), whereas it then drops to the floor harmlessly.
Bansho Ten'in - A technique that manipulates attractive force (引力, inryoku) pull matter towards the user at will. It has the same five second limit as the Shinra Tensei. It is possible to attract multiple targets at once, causing them to collide with each other. This works similar to Shinra Tensei.
The Sage can pull targets to them and immediately make a grapple check whereas the sage gets a bonus +2 per caster level to the check, and the victim suffers a -2 per caster level to ac. If the grapple check succeeds the sage has the ability to immediately throw the victim into the ground with his Shinra Tensei.
Rinnegan: Genjutsu - This ability, with just a glance into the eyes of the enemy, can cause them to be put under an extreme form of hypnosis. The DC to be unaffected by this genjutsu is Will based Dc (5 + Wisdom + Half level). If the target fails the will save, they are immediately under the affects of the genjutsu. The Sage controls this world completely, however he cannot change the targets perception of time, therefore any time while under genjutsu, most affected people will appear to be standing there doing seemingly nothing. The target however, might be locked in vicious combat with the sage, that after the genjutsu ends, they will realize that it was all an illusion to begin with.
When affected, if anything the sage shows to them makes them believe they are under the affects of a genjutsu, they may roll a sense motive (DC 5 + Sage's Wisdom mod + half level). If they Succeed this roll, then they will immediately realize that they are under the effects of the genjutsu and they are entitles to another will saved with the same DC as the first.
The Dc to resist being put under the genjutsu, and the DC to break free will increase to (10 + Sage's Wisdom mod + Half Level) when Rinnegan Mastery is obtained at level 7.
Chakra Receiver Manifestation - Produces black metallic blades unique to the Rinnegan. Can produce 10' of this per day per level. The Sage can generate receivers from their own body, as well as the bodies of the six paths of pain. Shape and size can be altered to fit the situation. These blades are highly durable - shown to be capable of piercing through sage mode users and tailed beasts. The Blades can also disrupt the ability to control energy to anyone who touches them potentially restricting movement and prevents them from using abilities.
Anyone with power of the six paths, or the ability to produce the Chakra Receivers are immune to these effects.
These blades do a 1d6 Piercing damage, and can be broken off to be left embedded in the target.
These Chakra receivers are used to attack and defend. They can also be used to drain the life force out of a target and disrupt their ability to control energy. When the blades are piercing an enemy they must roll a DC 15 Concentration check that increases by 5 for each blade embedded in them to use an ability.
They must roll a DC 10 Concentration check that increases by 5 for each blade embedded in them to move.
While embedded into a target you can also use these blades to drain their life force, each blade embedded in them will deal 1d6 damage each round until they are removed. The sage can determine whether or not to drain the life from the target.
These blades are also used in a number of sage techniques.
The Asura Path (修羅道, Shuradō), The Asura path greatly changes your body and grants the user mechanized limbs, weaponry and armor. This path gives the ability to form up to four additional arms as well as a folded, serrated blade like sash around the waist. These additional appendages, as well as the user's body as a whole, are augmented with a variety of mechanical weaponry, which they can access at will.
This strengthens the body increasing Strength by two, Dexterity by four, and constitution by four.
The sage can fire their forearm like a projectile that deals 1d8 blunt damage that increases by a dice ever 3 levels Range : 30 ft
The sage can also produce flexible blades and drills or a series of mechanical tendrils from their arms. Flexible blades - 1d6 slashing/piercing damage that increases by a dice every 5 levels after
Serrated blade sash - Deals 1d6 damage, but also rends the target dealing 1d6 a round until a DC 15 heal check is met.
The Sage can propel himself from holes in his feet - Increases land speed by 10 and Fly Speed by 30 while propelling himself.
The Damage for the following can be changed into a variety with control of the elements by changing the damage type into any of the elements.

The Animal Path (畜生道, Chikushōdō), which lets the user summon and control any animal depending on size.

Rinnegan Mastery - After extensive use of the Rinnegan, the sage better understands how to utilize its power and gains:
+1 to Dex
+2 to Wisdom
+2 to Reflex
+2 to Will
+2 to sense motive
Wisdom Modifier to AC
The Human Path (人間道, Ningendō), which gives the ability to remove a soul and read a person's mind.
Ability to touch ones head or chest and grasp their soul allowing you to read their mind with a concentration Dc Equal to (10 + Targets Level). The Target Also gets a will save to hide information (DC 10 + Wisdom Mod + Half Level) If the target succeeds the will save however, they can attempt to feed the sage false information with a bluff check against the sage's sense motive. If they fail then they do not feed false information, the sage only fails gets no information.
Human Path - Soul Removal - Once the soul has been grasped it can be ripped from the body - This allows much easier and more efficient reading of the mind. This technique takes much less time to read the mind, and eliminates any chance for false information, but it also kills the target. Will Negate (DC 5 + Wisdom + Half Level)
The Naraka Path (地獄道, Jigokudō), through which one can summon and control the King of Hell. The Naraka Path grants the user two main abilities: interrogation and restoration. The King of Hell is a large head which sprouts out of the ground surrounded by purple flames. It also possesses the Rinnegan as well as the shared field of vision along with the other summons.
To interrogate, the Naraka Path need only catch hold of a person(Reflex Negate (15 + half Level + Wisdom Mod DC)), causing the King of Hell to appear before them. With the victim seemingly paralyzed, the Naraka Path begins questioning them. After answers are given, the King of Hell will unzip its mouth to release tendril-like arms and would draw out an apparition of the victim's life force energy in the form of an enlarged tongue. The King of Hell would then proceed to pass its judgement. If the person was lying or refused to answer the questions, the King of Hell would remove their tongue and consume it, apparently killing them(Will Negate (15 + 1/2 User level + Wisdom Mod DC)) However, if they told the truth, they would be spared, although left extremely exhausted.
The second ability the Naraka Path possessed is the ability to repair any damage. To do so the Naraka Path has the King of Hell ingest the damaged body with its tendril-like arms into its mouth, then, after 1d6 + 2 rounds, the destroyed body will emerge from its mouth, completely rejuvenated.
Souls and bodies of the recently deceased can also be stored in the king of hell to be revived at a later time the length that bodies can be stored is equal to the sage's level + Wisdom Modifier days.
Almighty Push
Stage One - Stage One of Almighty Push multiplies your base Deva Path pressure times 5, and in a 30 ft diameter. Starting in the middle of the circle, everything begins to be pushed down and out.
After using Stage One, you will be unable to use any Deva path powers for 1d3 minutes.
Stage Two - Stage Two of Almighty Push multiplies your base Deva Path pressure times 10, and in a mile diameter. Starting in the middle of the circle, everything begins to be pushed down and out.
After using Stage Two, you will be unable to use any Deva path powers for 2d3 minutes.
Rinnegan Summoning - The Sage can summon any willing humanoid with a concentration DC 10 Check that increases by 5 for each extra person. The target feels a force pulling them and can resist if they wish, and any resistance cancels the technique. Letting themselves get pulled means them appearing in front of the sage in a puff of smoke.
The Outer Path (外道, Gedō), which rules over both life and death.
An ability granted to the wielder of the Rinnegan, with the Outer Path, the user is able to revive the dead, transmit chakra to receivers, as well as manifest chakra chains.
Bind and potentially control movements of those who touch the chakra receivers. Concentration against targets will save to control movements.
Can implant corpses or reincarnated individuals at level 11, and control all their movements. You can control up to six Bodies, Referred to as the six paths of pain. Each of these paths can be used to channel each of the paths. They can also form chakra receivers from their bodies.
The Outer path also gives the ability to call back souls. When souls are summoned in this manner, the deceased person does not have an actual body, but appears as a mass of flickering chakra in full possession of personality and memories. Souls summoned in this manner cannot be revived with the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique. Once the user ends the technique, the summons souls dwindle and eventually disappear.
Demonic Statue Chains - Ability to manifest chakra chains at level 11, which greatly restrict anyone who touches the receivers and causes great pain. When one is touching the blades the sage can make a concentration DC 15 to generate chakra chains and bind anyone who touches them. The target can make a reflex DC 15 + wisdom mod + half level to avoid the chains.
When the chakra chains are connected the target is treated as helpless until released, or they succeed a DC 10 + wisdom + level Will Save to break free from the chains. The blades causes great pain to the targets body and mind, dealing 1d6 + Wisdom score damage a round, and the target must make a Will (DC 10 + Sage's Wisdom Modifier) to stay conscious, and the Dc increases by one each round until they fall unconscious.
Outer Path - Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique This Technique can only be used when the body and soul of the target is still present in the material world. This typically is only viable for a deceased person 24 hours after their death. This ability works as a True resurrection, and you must take 3 round with full concentration while in combat. Any damage will cancel the cast.
To revive the target, the body must be within 100 ft, and must have died within the past 24 hours of the resurrection. If the soul and body are stored within the King of Hell through the Naraka path, the deceased can still be revived. You can only use this ability every 1d4 weeks, and using it leaves you exhausted. Reviving more than one person at once is possible, however after the revival is done you must make a DC 15 Fortitude save, where the DC increases by 5 for each person resurrected, if the sage fails this save, he will unavoidably die.
Chibaku Tensei - The user created a dark black sphere of gravity that when thrown into the sky, attracts objects from all direction and pulls them into the sphere compressing them simultaneously. The surrounding earth, including forests and mountains, are collected into a single point, piling on top of one another until it creates a large sphere. A large crater is left where the earth has been collected from. This ability lasts 1d2 rounds per level of the user, as this ability takes a considerable amount of energy, the user can only use this ability once a week.
If a person is standing on the land as it is collected into the orb they must make a DC 15 + Wisdom Mod Balance check or fall prone onto the moving earth. If they are pulled into the sphere (Reflex 15 + Half Level + Wisdom Mod), they will start to take 2d10 damage every round they are trapped within the orb. When the orb comes crashing down anyone within the orb must make a Reflex (10 + Half Level + Wisdom mod) Or take 6d10 damage as the orb comes crashing down into the earth. Anyone under the orb will take 6d10 damage as the orb crashes on them and 2d10 damage every round they are trapped beneath it.
Range of pull - 70 Ft Range of falling orb - 50 Ft
Amenotejikara - A space- time ability used to shift himself, others, and objects a set distance away from his original location. The Range can be increased instantaneously by changing places with a remote space. Each eye has three charges, and after the three charges are used the eye must remain closed for 2d6 rounds to recharge. If all three uses are not used in quick succession, then each charge recharges at a rate of 1d3 rounds.
Range of Teleportation is equal to (10 + Wisdom Modifier + Half Level) x 10 feet.
When one eye is recharging, you can only use half of the deva path force, and when both are closed you may not use the deva path at all.
Limbo: Border Jail - The User projects shadows of themselves into the invisible world known as Limbo. These shadows are generally impossible to detect or visually perceive. These shadows can operate independently of the user, attacking or restraining targets or defends the original body from harm. To the naked eye, it appears to be the act of an invisible force.
Powerful types of sensory can sense the shadows, Rinnegan users can see the shadows perfectly.
Most physical attacks are useless against the shadows, being unable to perceive them, however they are particularly weak to sage chakra. After a set period of time the shadows automatically return to their body and are left temporarily unusable. The shadows cannot use any of the abilities of the main body, and can only attack with physical attacks, however the main body can switch places with the shadow at any time.

Six Paths Chibaku Tensei - This technique is used to seal away targets with the Chibaku Tensei technique. To use this technique you must first make a touch attack against the target(unless the user is already grappling the target), then succeed a concentration check DC equal to 10+caster level. The target is encased in earth and other debris which are forcefully pulled to their body. The marks disappear after use and will return on the sages palm one week after use.
The resulting mass is similar in size and appearance to the moon.
This also seals away the targets abilities, and works the same as imprisonment spell.
The only known method of breaking the seal is for a wielder of the Rinnegan to summon the core out of the moon.
Six Red Yang Formation - By placing black chakra receivers in a hexagon formation, the sage can activate the Six Red Yang Formation, which creates a huge reddish barrier between the blades. The barrier is highly malleable and extremely durable.
The barrier lasts for 2d8 + Wisdom mod rounds, and during that time is impossible to pass through. Teleportation techniques, however can pass through the barrier with ease.
This ability can only be used when the black chakra receivers are in place, once the ability is activated however it cannot be canceled early by destroying the black blades, the sage can, however, dispel the barrier at will.
Six Paths Sage Technique The user's physical strength, speed, stamina and regeneration are exponentially increased. To enter six paths sage mode, the sage must stay perfectly still for 2d4 minutes while collecting nature energy from the atmosphere. The user also gains the ability to fly at 100ft/Perfect, as well as the ability to create multiple Truth-Seeking Balls (although the Truth-Seeking Balls aren't always necessarily linked with this technique). Appearance-wise, this form creates a pattern of Rinnegan and nine tomoe on the user's back, as well as cause the user to grow horns on their forehead. The Sage can only keep this form for 2d8 + Wisdom Modifier Minutes.
Upon entering Six Paths Sage Mode you gain:
+8 Strength

Mass of Satellites
The user created a dark black sphere of gravity that when thrown into the sky, attracts objects from all direction and pulls them into a mass of satellites compressing them simultaneously. The surrounding earth, including forests and mountains, are collected into a single point in each satellite, piling on top of one another until it creates large spheres. A large crater is left where the earth has been collected from. This ability lasts 1d2 rounds per level of the user, as this ability takes a considerable amount of energy, the user can only use this ability three times a week.
If a person is standing on the land as it is collected into the satellites they must make a DC 20 + Wisdom Mod Balance check or fall prone onto the moving earth. If they are pulled into the spheres (Reflex 15 + Half Level + Wisdom Mod), they will start to take 2d10 damage every round they are trapped within the orb.
After 2d4 rounds the orbs come crashing down into the earth anyone within the orbs must make a Reflex (15 + Half Level + Wisdom mod) Or take 12d10 damage as the orbs come crashing down into the earth. Anyone under the orbs will take 12d10 damage as the orbs crashes on them and 2d10 damage every round they are trapped beneath them.

Rinnegan Ultimate Genjutsu
This Genjutsu is able to create an entire world and trap a target in it, and the sage can alter their perception of time as well. The Sage looks into the eye of the target for one round to activate the ability, the target gets an initial will save(DC 10 + Wisdom mod + Half Level) that if they fail, then they will be trapped in this world and will require a sense motive (DC 15 + Wisdom + Half Level) to realize it is not the real world in order to attempt to break out of the genjutsu. If they succeed in realizing that they are under the effects, then they may make another will save (DC 10 + Wisdom Mod + Half Level) every day in their perception of time to break out. The Dc for this rises by 1 for each day that they believed that the genjutsu is the real world.
Another form of this Genjutsu is to trap the target inside the genjutsu and mentally attack their mind Will save (DC 15 + Wisdom mod + Half level). If they fail this initial will save, then the target will be trapped inside the genjutsu world for 1d6 + Wisdom mod Days, where the sage may control the world however he likes. Different examples of this is showing them memories, torturing them, or even something as simple as having a conversation with them. The time in the real world passes in a matter of seconds and the target will have all the mental damage from torture with none of the bodily injuries. The sage can end the genjutsu early and pull the target out of it, ending the ability. If the sage uses this ability to mentally attack the mind, then the target must make a will save (DC 15 + Wisdom mod +1 for every day of torture) or fall unconscious when the genjutsu ends.
The target will be left mentally exhausted if they stay under the genjutsu for longer than one day for 2d6 hours, and must make a will save (DC 10 + Wisdom + 1 for each day under the genjutsu) or they will fall unconscious.
Deva Path - Unstoppable force - The Deva path can now be used to affect an entire line, everything in that line will be under the effects of the deva path. This line will rip up the earth, trees and anything in its way.
The force also increases to a x30, and the formula for determing distance is changed to force - 1/2 weight.
With the added threat of debris when using the deva path at this level, anyone caught in the blast will take 4d6 crushing damage while being pushed.
The distance of the line determines on how much force is put into it, but it also calls for a longer recharge time in between each use of the deva path.
Force - Range - Recharge Time
100% - 200ft - 2d6 rounds
75% - 150ft - 2d4 rounds
50% - 100ft - 1d6 rounds
25% - 50ft - 1d4 rounds
