Naruto was one of our first RPG rules set from 2007. Due to size of the game book we can only offer a Pdf and download like for it.

We created this rule set right before we started creating, the Green Lightning Rules set for the game going forward. Unfortunately due to its page count we can only release this in Pdf and downloadable.

We orginially crafted these rules back in 2009. Due to space the Complete rules wont be posted here on the site but here is the PDF version.

For some, there is only rage. In the ways of their people, in the fury of their passion, in the howl of battle, conflict is all these brutal souls know. Savages, hired muscle, masters of vicious martial techniques, they are not soldiers or professional warriors—they are the battle possessed, creatures of slaughter and spirits of war. Known as barbarians, these warmongers know little of training, preparation, or the rules of warfare; for them, only the moment exists, with the foes that stand before them and the knowledge that the next moment might hold their death.

Role: Barbarians excel in combat, possessing the martial prowess and fortitude to take on foes seemingly far superior to themselves. With rage granting them boldness and daring beyond that of most other warriors, barbarians charge furiously into battle and ruin all who would stand in their way.

Illiteracy – Barbarian must take Common Language as a feat to read or write this despite having a positive bonus Intelligence  

Rage Type – The player chooses the type of Rage that they wish to use throughout the build granting the following advantages to their rages.

Pure – Player Gains +4 Focus +4 Power -2 Avoidance, Plus their Endurance Modifier in extra HP, lasts for 1+level in rounds

Savage – Player gets 3 Attack actions that round at a -2 Focus, +Endurance Modifier in extra HP, lasts in 1+level in rounds

Elemental – Players attacks do Elemental damage based on their Natural Alignment type, granting them attack bonus of +4 Power of that element, +2 AC -2 Focus +Endurance Modifier in extra HP, lasts for 1+level in rounds

While raging, a barbarian cannot use any Skills outside of Strength and Endurance based ones. After the end of their rage the Barbarian suffers from a point of exhaustion, making their movement -5 and -1 on Avoidance Saves.

A barbarian may prematurely end his rage. At the end of the rage, the barbarian loses the rage modifiers and restrictions and becomes fatigued (–2 penalty to Strength, –2 penalty to Dexterity, can’t charge or run) for the duration of the current encounter (unless he is a 17th-level barbarian, at which point this limitation no longer applies; see below). A barbarian can fly into a rage only once per encounter.

At 1^st level he can use his rage ability once per day. At 4th level and every four levels thereafter, he can use it one additional time per day (to a maximum of six times per day at 20th level). Entering a rage takes no time itself, but a barbarian can do it only during his action, not in response to someone else’s action. A barbarian can’t, for example, fly into a rage when struck down by an arrow in order to get the extra hit points from the increased Endurance, although the extra hit points would be of benefit if he had gone into a rage earlier in the round, before the arrow struck

Damage Reduction – At 7th level, a Barbarian, gains damage reduction. Subtract 1 from the damage the barbarian takes each time dealt damage from a weapon or a natural attack. At 10th level, and every three barbarian levels thereafter (13th, 16th, and 19th level), this damage reduction rises by 1 point. Damage reduction can reduce damage to 0 but not below 0.

Greater Rage– At 11th level, at this level the Barbarian boosts their bonus as follows.

Pure – Rage boost is now +5 Focus, +5 Power

Savage – Rage now grants 4 attack actions

Elemental – Rage boost is now +6 Power and grants a 10ft radius in elemental damage making those in that radius to make a Avoidance Save DC10 + Elemental Damage, +3 AC

Indomitable Will – While in rage, a barbarian of 14th level or higher gains a +4 bonus on saves to resist Charms, illusions and Psychic Suggestions. This bonus stacks with all other modifiers, including the morale bonus on Will saves also receives during rage.

Tireless Rage – Starting at 17th level, a barbarian no longer gains exhaustion at the end of rage.

Mighty Rage – At 20th level, The Barbarian achieves mastery over their rage.

Pure – Rage boosted to now be +6 Focus, + 6 Power, No more Avoidance decrease

                Savage – Rage boosted to 5 Attack actions, No Focus decrease

Elemental – Rage boosted to +8 power and grants 10ft radius in elemental damage making those in that radius to make a Avoidance Save DC10, +4 AC, -2 Focus

ABILITY SCORES

ABILITY SCORES

Each character has six rolled ability scores that represent his character’s most basic attributes. They are his raw talent and prowess. While a character rarely rolls a check using just an ability score, these scores, and the modifiers they create, affect nearly every aspect of a character’s skills and abilities. Each ability score generally ranges from 3 to 18, although racial bonuses and penalties can alter this; an average ability score is 10. The latter two abilities Spirit and Comeliness are determined by the combined score of three of the previous six

Generating Ability Scores

There are several different methods used to generate ability scores. Each of these methods gives a different level of flexibility and randomness to character generation. Special modifiers are applied after the scores are generated.

Standard: Roll 4d6, discard the lowest die result, and add the three remaining results together. Record this total and repeat the process until six numbers are generated. Assign these totals to your ability scores as you see fit. This method is less random than Classic and tends to create characters with above-average ability scores.

Classic: Roll 3d6 and add the dice together. Record this total and repeat the process until you generate six numbers. Assign these results to your ability scores as you see fit. This method is quite random, and some characters will have clearly superior abilities. This randomness can be taken one step further. With the totals applied to specific ability scores in the order they are rolled. Characters generated using this method are difficult to fit to predetermined concepts, as their scores might not support given classes or personalities, and instead are best designed around their ability scores.

Heroic: Roll 2d6 and add 6 to the sum of the dice. Record this total and repeat the process until six numbers are generated. Assign these totals to your ability scores as you see fit. This is less random than the Standard method and generates characters with mostly above-average scores.

Dice Pool: Each character has a pool of 24d6 to assign to his statistics. Before the dice are rolled, the player selects the number of dice to roll for each score, with a minimum of 3d6 for each ability. Once the dice have been assigned, the player rolls each group and totals the result of the three highest dice. For more high-powered games, the GM should increase the total number of dice to 28. This method generates characters of a similar power to the Standard method.

Purchase: Each character receives a number of points to spend on increasing his basic attributes. In this method, all attributes start at a base of 10. A character can increase an individual score by spending some of his points. Likewise, he can gain more points to spend on other scores by decreasing one or more of his ability scores. No score can be reduced below 7 or raised above 18 using this method. After all the points are spent, apply any racial modifiers the character might have. The number of points you have to spend using the purchase method depends on the type of campaign you are playing. The standard value for a character is 15 points. Average non-player characters (NPCs) are typically built using as few as 3 points. See Table 1–2 on the next page for several possible point values depending on the style of campaign. The purchase method emphasizes player choice and creates equally balanced characters.

Luck of the Draw:  What is needed for this is a deck of cards and a set of dice (multiple dice sets are suggested)

The Drawing: Well now that we know about the ability scores now, we need to know how to determine them. At creation all characters have all 10s to start. At either end the soul must gamble with the creator to determine your starting abilities. The Player shuffles the deck in front of the GM to avoid cheating then hands the deck back to the GM for inspection. After noting that the deck is random the player will draw 6 cards and lay them face down on the table. The player can decide to keep a 10 in any ability but once decided he cannot go back unless he draws the joker. If the player is unsatisfied with average he or she can decide to gamble with the creator for greater ability. The player then places his wager which can be as small as a Coin toss or as high as a d8 which is the dream of great power.

Once the wager is laid the GM must ask “Your Fate has been Judged! Do you Accept Fate?”

If the player says no then the bet is off and they have their 10. If they say yes, the card is turned over to reveal their fate. If the Card is red then they have won the wager and may roll their dice and add that number to their current score. If the card is Black then they lose the wager and must subtract that amount. If the player takes the highest of the bets either win or lose and rolls the maximum amount they are bid to roll again. If the maximum amount is rolled a second time, they are allowed to roll an extra d4 to add to their stat in the case of a win and the stat is reduced to 1 in the case of a loss. If the player has drawn the joker Chaos has decided to allow for a change to fate. The color of the card still determines loss or gain but the amount of the bet may be changed with the added penalties or bonuses it may give. If the player draws a joker when they decided not to gamble, they are given the chance to roll a die if they wish to add or subtract depending on the color of the joker involved. They are always allowed to keep their 10 if they chose not to gamble and those stats not gambled on are always held to the last.  This Choice is Utter Chaos and can result in a weak character as often as a strong one. So it is suggested when a player chooses this method to roll that the GM offer a bonus level, ability or Build Points.

The Abilities

Each ability partially describes your character and affects some of his actions.

Strength – Determines the Players Physical Strength as it plays into Saves, Skills, Grapples, Carry Weight

Dexterity – Determines the Players ability to move as it plays into the players Saves, Skills, Speed, Bonus Actions, Initiative

Endurance – Determines the Players ability to take a hit as it plays into the players Saves, Skills, HP, Resistances

Wisdom – Determines the Players ability to Perceive as it plays into the players Saves, Skills, # Spells/powers, Perception, Psychic Points 

Charisma – Determines the Players ability to convey their presence as it plays into the players Saves, Skills, # Spells/Powers, Magical Points

Strength (Str)

Strength measures muscle and physical power. This ability is important for those who engage in hand-to-hand (or “melee”) combat, such as Warrior, Monks, Martial Artists. Strength also sets the maximum amount of weight your character can carry. A character with a Strength score of 0 is too weak to lift anything including clothing worn. Some creatures do not possess a Strength score and have no modifier at all to Strength-based skills or checks.

You apply your character’s Strength modifier to:

• Strength Determines the Players Carry Weight

• Athletics, Martial Arts skill checks.

• Strength is used Body, Influence, Power, and Comeliness Saves.

• Strength is used to roll a D20 roll for Grappling with any bonuses the players have to attack or avoid grapples. Grapples made to held items have a -4. 

Classes Best for High Strength – Brawler, Super, Martial Artist, Warrior, Samurai, Solider  

Dexterity (Dex)

Dexterity measures agility, reflexes, and balance. This ability is the most important one for rogues, but it’s also useful for characters who wear light or medium armor or no armor at all. Dexterity is used to determine a player’s base speed and Initiative. A character with a Dexterity score of 0 is incapable of moving and is effectively immobile (but not unconscious).

You apply your character’s Dexterity modifier to:

• Dexterity is used to determine the Players bonus to Speed and additional Actions that they can do in a round.

•Body, Focus, Will, Avoidance saving throws, for avoiding explosives and other attacks that you can escape by moving quickly.

• Acrobatics, Disable, Drive, Sleight of Hand, and Stealth skill checks.

• Dexterity plus a D20 roll and bonuses are used to determine the Initiative order in battles

Classes Best for High Dexterity- Bounty Hunter, Gunslinger, Ninja, Ranger, Scout, Swashbuckler, Vigilante 

Endurance (End)

Endurance represents your character’s health and stamina. An Endurance bonus increases a character’s hit points, so the ability is important for all classes. Some creatures, such as undead and constructs, do not have an Endurance score. Their modifier is +0 for any Endurance-based checks. A character with an Endurance score of 0 is dead, the exception of which is undead or a construct which does not have this score counted.

You apply your character’s Endurance modifier to:

• Each roll of a Hit Die (though a penalty can never drop a result below 1—that is, a character always gains at least 1 hit point each time he advances in level).

• Resistance saving throws, for resisting poison, disease, addictions and similar threats to ones body.

If a character’s Endurance score changes enough to alter his or her Endurance modifier, the character’s hit points also increase or decrease accordingly.

• Endurance is used on the saves of Body, Power, Influence, and Avoidance

• Endurance is used on the skills, Control Shape

Classes Best for High Endurance

Barbarians, Paladin, Pirate, Punk, Savage, Survivor, Trainer, War Mage

Intelligence (Int)

Intelligence determines how well your character learns and reasons. Creatures of animal-level instinct have Intelligence scores of 1 or 2. Any creature capable of understanding speech has a score of at least 3. A character with an Intelligence score of 0 is comatose. Some creatures do not possess an Intelligence score. Their modifier is +0 for any Intelligence-based skills or checks.

You apply your character’s Intelligence modifier to:

• Study – Intelligence Modifier is used for the player to learn new languages, Spells, Powers and skills. The GM will determine the player has to meet a DC to learn these before spending on the points adding these or gaining them in the case of new skills or languages. Players start with the number of languages equal to their bonus in Intelligence. If a player has a Negative in Intelligence they know how to speak common but cannot read or write without rolling a D20 – Int Modifier vs DC 10. Additionally Study can be used to influence the DC of a puzzle/ riddle/ Faded or rare written languages

Determining your Saves Scores

Add the Total Bonus from the three stats that make up that save, then using that number use Chart 1.2 to see where your number total lands on the Bonus granted to that save. Add any Advantage / Disadvantage, and Feature Bonus to that score and that equals your total score before the roll.

Example:  Player wants to know their Body Save the save is (Strength 18 + Dexterity 10 + Endurance 14 = 42 [Using chart 1.1 42= +4 to this save] Thus the base for the save is +4, The player also has a Feature the grants them a +2, A Disability that grants them a -1 Thus the Total score before the roll is +5, this gets added to the result of the roll on a d20)

Chart 1.2   Determining the Base Save
3 Stats Base Added#	Base Save Result
00-09	+ 0
10-19	+ 1
20-29	+ 2
30-39	+ 3

Character Alignment

Unlike other games the Character alignment is less a basis of where one stands in Good and evil sense on a moral sense, and more where they stand on a mental level. The two categories stand as Laws and Mental Status

Laws Alignments

(O) Order – A person of order has a strong sense of laws ether of social or personal nature. They use these laws to guide their actions through choices.

(F) Freewill – A person of individual choice. The hardest of the choices a freewill person takes and weighs the decisions of each choice. Choosing the one that they feel will be best at the time.

(C) Chaos – A person of Chaos never makes choices and lets events play out as they go. Often they will do something merely to see what chaos is comes from it. 

Mental Status

(S) Sane – A sane person is solid strong mind that thinks things through to their conclusion.

(W) Weird – A Weird person will make random thoughts and actions.

(I) Insane – A Insane Person will make crazy non-sense-based decisions in their life.

Example of how each player works on a situation.

The group arrives in a massive room. A large Casket with Gold coins spilling out stands on a raised dais in the middle of the room, columns line the room each with a nude statue. A massive Beast stands between the party and is ready to attack.

The OS Character will strike at the beast in the most logical way

The OW Character will seek for a way to start a chain reaction of explosives on the Statues in the room to harm the beast with shrapnel.

The OI Character will also seek for a way to start a chain reaction but on the columns of the room. Hoping to bring the room down on it and then digging the treasure free afterwards.

The FS will let the Beast move to attack them and spring an attack on them as an act of defense.

The FW will let the Beast attack his teammates then attack it from behind.

The FI will let the Beast attack his Teammates while he goes after the treasure.

The CS will try to go around the beast striking it from behind, while ducking behind the statues, hoping the beast’s strength won’t push the statues into the columns crushing him.

The CW will run head forward willing to take the beast head on.

The CI will run head first on a suicide bomb quest of trying to toss explosives into the beast’s mouth or personally delivering them.

Now the Beast lay dead and the treasure before them.

The OS character will study the dais making sure it’s not trapped then will demand they divide the treasure fairly between the party.

The OW character will let the others pick up the treasure in turns. Choosing the items that fit for each member perfectly.

The OI character will divide the treasure in piles of equal size and give a pile to each member.

The FS character will divide the treasure giving items to those that contribute the most or give the best use to each member.

The FW character will divide the treasure into items of value to sell off and items that may be useful to him.

The FI character will randomly hand out treasure to those he feels may be useful later.

The CS character will gather the treasure and take what they find they want if they can use it or not for use or sale later.

The CW character will demand the group gamble for the treasure here and now.

The CI character will take all the treasure and toss it in the air what falls near each person is theirs to keep.

Natural Alignment (Optional Rule)

In all games characters have a Natural Alignment. This is the elements of Nature that they find a greater draw to them. The Natural Alignment can manifest itself in learning technique, empowering techniques, or powers, and even in granting special abilities at time. Each person has one of these Alignments. Some classes and abilities use this alignment to empower the players but the following is important.

Natural Alignments
Element	Strong Against	Weak Against	Combinable With
Fire	Ice	Water	Metal, Wind
Water	Fire	Lightning	Ice, Earth
Earth	Lightning	Ice	Water, Metal
Wind	Poison	Earth	Metal, Fire
Lightning	Water	Metal	Poison, Fire
Poison	Metal	Wind	Lightning, Water
Metal	Earth	Fire	Wind, Fire
Ice	Wind	Poison	Water, Wind

(Optional Rule, Resistance) When the player chooses their alignment, they gain a +2 Resistance of that element and +4 resistances of the element that they are strong against, and the player gains takes double damage from natural elements that your type is weak to.

In some classes like Barbarian, and all magic classes that make Elemental magic a type they can learn. The players attacks unless otherwise stated are based on the players Natural Alignment. Additionally, if two or more players make a combination attack with the same or Combinable elements, they do greater damage with the attack. If the player wants to counter spell or attack a use of one element, a strong type will always win whereas neither strong nor weak attack depend on the casters Spirit Save. 

Holy to Tainted Alignments

A third alignment for those that use holy based attacks or spells that they gain from higher power (I.E. – Clerics in traditional terms). These players gain a Second alignment. That of being along the more traditional lines of Good and Evil. These alignments are…

Holy – Magic used to improve and aid the living
Neutral – Has no opinion can use powers of both holy and Tainted
Tainted – Magic used to corrupt and destroy
 

Plus, the Lawful alignments (See Above). If a player falls out of this alignment from the ones granting them power, their power is sealed till an amendment or new connection is made to regain their magical power.  We will go into these more in the Building Magic part of the rules.

Optional Rule
