The are hundreds of techniques to learn on this site and I notice a lot of them are unclear about certain specifics. Normally I would just use my best judgement and make it realistic but in my short time here I have gotten the feeling that rules tend to rule the site a lot more then others. It fine actually, I think the hardcore structure is healthy for this site but it does leave me with a feeling of uncertainty about many jutsus in the index. Mainly, everyone that doesn't list its limitations in fields such as, range, duration, speed and sometimes other unique categories that the jutsu describes but doesn't go into specifics. As an example:
The technique doesn't state how far away the jutsu can be created/maintained, how fast it can move objects, or how fine the control is (can I use sword techniques with the floating weapons or is it just general movement). The jutsu itself says that the ability with the jutsu increases with rank by in what way? Distance, fine control, or is it just strength and if so what about speed with stronger winds?
There are many other examples too, so I am curious is there a general guideline for determining these missing factors in jutsus? Take range for instance: are D ranks defaulted to ten meters, C rank 20, B rank 50, A rank 80, S rank 120? Also if there isn't some system in place, might I suggest that one be made?
Fuuton: Suiran Reppu (Wind Release: Verdant Mountain's Violent Wind)
Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", "S" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: A wind technique using winds to lift and control a certain amount of weapons or people using powerful and at some points violent winds after utilizing the wind release. However, this can only be done to a certain extent.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: Must be learned multiple times, last handseal must be held for the technique to work. Once the seal is broken the technique will end.
Description: Performing the necessary handseals, the user will affix their wind release chakra and summon a small to large amount of powerful wind around a certain number of objects. At this point they can be suspended and controlled, moved through the air. However, the ability and amount of things possible to be moved varies along the rank learned for the technique. The winds if commanded can be very dangerous at any point in time, however it may only maim or move. When first learned at "D" Rank, the user is capable of having lifting a total of 10lbs. When dealing with weaponry, the weight of each weapon will be added together to result in the max; same with shinobi. When "C" Rank is reached the user is capable of lifting 50lbs. At "B" Rank, 200; At "A" Rank, 500; and finally at "S" Rank, 1000lbs.
Limit: Must have Wind Release
