Will it be possible to improve the character’s abilities?
Yes, during the game you can acquire different magical scrolls that have special effects when you equip them. The Scrolls of the Red category always have one major function, to serve it’s wearer in combat. They are the attack oriented scrolls. The Scrolls of the Purple category are mainly use to keep you alive in a battle. They focus more on protection and defensive attributes. The Scrolls of the Green category are there as support, granting you abilities or boosting existing abilities. They focus more on special effects applied to you or your opponent
Red Scrolls
Strength: Used mostly by front line soldiers, the strength scroll considerably augments the user’s natural force, resulting in a constant Taijutsu damage upgrade
Fury: When pure anger and consumes you, the fury scrolls is what you need. This scroll boosts your inner strength while in rage, adding more damage to your attacks only when in that state.
Rage duration: Losing ourselves to total raging frenzy can be useful in the world of the ninjas. This scroll helps out here since it gives you the ability to maintain your rage state longer than usual.
Weapon damage: Don’t want to get your hands dirty? It’s fine, this scroll will boost up the overall damage output done by weapons you use against your opponent. Your kunai will hit harder then they used to, so you can finish your opponent easily from a distance
Mastery: Masters rely on precision. By landing one blow in a whole combo, if this blow is well placed, it can turn the side of battle. This scroll does that by augmenting only the damage done on the killer moves you land on your opponent. Killer moves are unblockable attacks, the ace in your sleeve
Purple Scrolls
Protection: Used mostly by front line blockers, the protection scroll considerably augments the user’s natural armor, resulting in a lot of overall damage reduction caused by taijutsu attacks.
Chakra Sponge: Ninja relying mostly on their ninjutsu will hit a wall when confronted by an opponent with this scroll. While equipped, this scroll will considerably decrease the chakra regeneration rate of your opponent, limiting their overall jutsu usage.
Resistance: Being able to suppress the pain, even for only one attack, can be a lifesaver depending on the situation. This scroll does just that. It will reduces the damage you take from each killer blow the opponent lands on you
Defense: While in a rage, enemies lose themselves and can become more predictable. This scroll helps you to see into their attack pattern while they are in a rage. Basically, it lowers the overall damage you would take from attacks made against you while your opponent is in rage.
Windfall: Imbued with some wind chakra, the windfall scroll will push back the range weapons thrown at you, making their impact less damaging then they normally would be.
Peace: This scroll helps bring serenity to others. While equipped, it will lower the frustration others take from fighting, decreasing the rate at which an opponent can enter the rage state.
Green Scrolls
Inner Strength: This scroll focuses your thoughts so much, that it overcomes any pain done to you. It will slowly regenerate your stamina during combat so you can fight longer
Chakra Shield: Inspired by the Hyuga clan, this scroll will help you focus your chakra around you body so it can shield you from some damage. Equipping this scroll will let your chakra absorb some damage instead of you health for each attack
Luck: Everyone accepts luck when they cross another’s path. This scroll permits you to automatically block and substitute on an enemy attack, even if you were not prepared for it.
Health Leech: Your blows damage the enemy, but this scroll helps you heal yourself while doing so. With this scroll equipped, every blow you land on your opponent will generate back some health to you.
Chakra Leech: Tapping into the soul of the opponent, this scroll gives your attacks the ability to generate chakra after each blow you land
Focus: An ancient text. The wisdom found in it will give you the benefit of an accelerated chakra regeneration rate, giving you more opportunity to use your jutsu
