Jinchūriki

**Jinchūriki** (人柱力, *Literally meaning*: Power of Human Sacrifice) are humans that have tailed beasts sealed within them. They exhibit extraordinary powers due to the immense chakra reserves they possess.

Even though there are nine Tailed Beasts there is presently only eight Jinchūriki in the world, as despite numerous attempts by several nations the Nine-Tailed Fox has never been captured and remains at large and an existential threat to any who encounter it.

## Role-Play

**Jinchūriki** is one of the many specialization fields. A Jinchūriki's proficiency in using the powers of their Tailed Beast is based on their Jinchūriki specialization stat. The higher the level of the ninja's Jinchūriki specialization, the more in tune they are with their inner tailed beast and the more adept they are at drawing upon its power.

The greatest advantage of levelling this specialization is that it is uniquely usable only by Jinchūriki and the abilities it grants are likewise tremendously useful; with many Jinchūriki additionally receiving many other benefits as well from the unique abilities inherent to their tailed beasts. Consequently, each Jinchūriki will be entirely unique.

### Transformation Level

In addition to their ordinary progression, a Jinchūriki has something called a Transformation Level which changes mid-roleplay depending on how much power they draw from their Tailed Beast compared to their current level of control. In short, Transformation Level is what is used to track how close the Tailed Beast is to being unleashed.

The Initial Transformation level is based upon the characters Jinchūriki level and is incremented by 10 each round unless actively controlled by an experienced user, with other factors such as manifesting additional tails accelerating the process unless the tail is mastered; a tail is mastered for every 10 specialization points after 70 and 160 up to the Tailed Beast's given number of tails. If at any point the Transformation Level exceeds the Jinchūriki's Specialization level they go berserk and attack everything around them.

While its Jinchūriki is in a berserk state, the Tailed Beast forcibly unleashes an additional tail every second round until it reaches the corresponding number of tails as its own. Should at any point the total number of tails equal the Tailed Beast while its Jinchuriki is berserk in the Version Two Transformation then the **Tailed Beast breaks free of its bindings and the Jinchūriki dies**.

The Transformation Thresholds follow below.

* **Level 30:** Initial Jinchuriki Transformation—In this state, Speed, Strength and Durability stats are increased by +40. Unless the users Jinchuriki specialization level is 30 or higher they will continue to progress by 10 each round until they enter Version One Transformation at Transformation Level 70. Though if desperate they can voluntarily allow it to progress further for additional power.
* **Level 70:** Version One Transformation—In this state, Speed, Strength and Durability are increased by +100 and +10 for every tail released. Unleashing a tail increases your transformation level by 1 per tail each round unless the tail is mastered. Unless the users Jinchuriki specialization level is 80 or higher they will continue to progress by 10 each round until they enter Version Two Transformation at Transformation Level 160.
* **Level 160:** Version Two Transformation—In this state, Speed, Strength and Durability are increased by +200 and +10 for every tail released. Unleashing a tail increases your transformation level by 1 per tail each round unless the tail is mastered. Unless the users Jinchuriki specialization level is 160 or higher they will continue to progress by 10 each round until they are fully consumed by the Tailed Beast inside them through the process described earlier in this section.
