Ryo is the official currency of this site, it is used to buy weapons, jutsu scrolls, puppets..
Gaining Ryo
The first basic way of getting points is by posting; you will get 5 Ryo everytime you post and 8 when you create a topic. This will mean that you will be able to get 50 Ryo with just 10 posts, simple right? This way only works by posting in Roleplay areas.
The second way is by doing missions; there are no real fixed amounts of Ryo you can get but i will post the averages of what might be expected here; the amount of Ryo is chosen by the Kage that gives you the mission.
D Rank ~ 20 - 50 Ryo
C Rank ~ 60 - 85 Ryo
B Rank ~ 100 - 150 Ryo
A Rank ~ 175 - 250 Ryo
S Rank ~ 300 - 400 Ryo
Using Ryo
Jutsu:
When you want to create or purchase some jutsu you need to know before hand how much it will cost you;
D Rank ~ 25 Ryo ~ 200 words
C Rank ~ 40 Ryo ~ 400 words
B Rank ~ 65 Ryo ~ 575 words
A Rank ~ 100 Ryo ~ 825 words
S Rank ~ 125 Ryo ~ 1300 words
To successfully get a new jutsu, you need first to post in Jutsu Purchase area to actually buy the jutsu scroll that you'll learn the Jutsu from. Then after doing the needed training post in Modification Area with link to your training and a staff will review it. Now if you want to learn a jutsu from your Sensei, you won't have to purchase the scroll, and you'll only have to write half the training word count.
