Can I ask how chakra nature will work if you choose the Yuki bloodline? Will a) choosing Yuki cause the player to be railroaded into picking water/wind, b) have to pick water or wind as the nature to unlock Yuki background, or c) we can pick any chakra nature since the clan abilities would act as a separate option from using chakra nature based attacks/skills?

Hi Gingko! Hope you've been doing well~

Short answer is: You can pick any clan option and it won't affect your overall Chakra nature.

Keep in mind though: not having the water and wind nature will prevent MC from having the Ice Release Jutsu and will have some effect on the relationship MC has with their father.

Long answer under the cut👇🏿👇🏿

The Yuki bloodline is probably the most quirkest clan to choose from in the sense that those who are from the clan have the chance to possess the Ice Release kekkai genki. You don't automatically get it at first but you have the potential to unlock the jutsu.

Was to have the player have a couple of points allocated into each of the 5 elements at the beginning and then for each choice up until characters meet Hanabi, they allocate points into that specific element. For example, being brash or fighting with brutality would increase your fire and wind element. While maybe being a bit more reserved could increase your earth element.

In general, I had a couple of ideas of how Chakra Nature would be determine.

The first:

I haven't decided yet. Although the second might be the easiest and more plausible way to go~

OR

I would have a little personality quiz when you all meet Hanabi to determine your Chakra nature.

If you don't like the results you can then just choose the Chakra Nature you want.

How will the surnames work? Will we be Uzumaki, take on the other clan name, or can we choose between the two?

You'll only be known as Uzumaki. It's one of the many arguments that MCs father and mother had at the time of MCs birth.

If it is not too spoilery how strong do you think the MC will be able to get I mean chances are we are not reaching Naruto, Sasuke or Madara's level of power but do you think we could reach Kakashi or Might Guy in terms of strength

Hmm... it'll honestly depend on what MC is doing during the game.

At the end of the game series, and I mean the very end, you'll be at the level of a legendary sannin.

But in Maboroshi before the time skip, you'll at least be at the level of a Chunin whose taking C Rank missions depending on how you're training.

Wait, You're the same author from the A Trial Of Horror IF account!!??

Teehee, yes?

[maboroshi-if]

Hii are you still writing this?

Short answer, yes.

Long answer is down below in the cut 👇🏿👇🏿👇🏿

I'm working on another game called A trial of horror, or ATOH for short, and trying to prepare it for release for this November hopefully 🤞🏿🤞🏿 with that being said, I've only started writing a teeny bit for Maboroshi. Like maybe 100 words? Nothing substantial ya know?

I'm not gonna give a release date just for my mental health, but I can say that its probably gonna be either the end of the year of Q1 of 2024 😬😬

B,I,K and P for Chihiro please and I hope you’re doing well!

Thank you nonnie! This has been a long time coming, and Im sorry its taken so long to answer this~ I'm doing much better now, and feel a little more motivated to write and answer asks again!

Now on with the asks!

B = Breath(What could their s/o do to take their breath away?)

Being overly romantic is one way to make her freeze up like a deer in headlights and for her lungs to start fighting against her. Like grabbing her hand, spinning her around, and dancing with her. Or even dipping her while looking her directing in her eyes. Even just direct eye contact can make Chihiro stop breathing for a second, her cheeks flaring up in a blaze. But what makes it even worse (funnier) is that she doesn't even know why her lungs are freezing up on her!

Team 7 is playing on the beach, and MC is just floating in the water like a piece of debris. Chihiro peers at them and sees their hair spread out like a halo around them with such a serene expression on their face. She thinks that they look so... peaceful (beautiful). Cue Hanabi Sensei looking on with a knowing smile and a soft look in her eyes.

I = Intimacy(How romantic are they? Do they have problems with intimacy?)

Unfortunately, Chihiro isn't romantic at all. She's too awkward and unsure of herself in this department that every gesture she tries to make fails miserably. If she tries to gather flowers for MC, she gets ones they are allergic to. Chihiro tries to make dinner for MC? She's accidentally giving them food poisoning 💀💀. It's only when she's unintentional, and doing something completely oblivious, that she makes the most romantic gestures. When talking about MC, they always affectionately refer to them as their wife/husband/partner—or listening to MC talk while staring at them with such love in their eyes. She's down bad and doesn't even realize it 🥴🥴

Chihiro has no problem showing intimacy; she's done it all her life when you guys were just friends. Sitting with you on the docks or just taking naps with you, she loves feeling safe with you. Now in terms of emotional availability. There's nothing she has a problem sharing or even telling you about; emotions, feelings, what bothers her etc.,

K = Kiss(Are they a good kisser? Do they like to kiss? How often do they try to kiss you?)

Ooof 🥴🥴 I gotta explain this in detail y'all! Now when MC and Chihiro get together, they'll be her first EVER everything. All she's ever done is train, study the principles of Taoism, and study regular ninja scrolls. When you finally have your 1st kiss, it's sloppy, with too many teeth and drool, but what she lacks in experience, she makes up for in earnest. After a while, she gets it down to a science, but there are times when she's still a sloppy kisser, i.e., when she's too excited, or she's in the throws of passion, etc.,

Now she's always finding a reason to give you kisses. She'll leave pecks on your cheeks and lips. Giving you forehead kisses when you've done something that you're super proud of. Any reason at all and she's placing her lips on you proudly.

P =Playful(Are they playful in a relationship? If so, how do they play around/mess with their s/o?)

Absolutely, completely playful 🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️🤸🏼‍♀️ definitely plays too much actually. Chihiro likes to hide and jump out places that MC would least expect. Giving them the big scare, and laughing like a lunatic. Once MC calms down shes giving them little kisses to apologize. She'll also love to wrestle and rough house with MC. She's pretty much a tomboy.

Hey how are you doing? I hope you doing great and remember to take care of yourself and take time and also stay safe(⁠｡⁠･⁠ω⁠･⁠｡⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠♡

Awh, nonnie, I'm doing much better now~ it was rough for a minute but I'm hanging in there 🤎🤎 thank you so much for asking.

[maboroshi-if]

I'm so excited for this IF!🤩 Of course you should also take your time!🫰 There's no need to rush🥺💕 I wanna ask if it's alright to ask you things like "How would the RO's react to..." Things like that? If not it's alright ☺️👍

Of course nonnie 🤎! You can send in scenairo asks or even asks that are from alphabet games like this one. There isn't limitations on anything you guys ask unless it's completely fucked up or its spoilers which I'll let you know.

I will warn you though, that turnaround for me is super late. I still have a ton of asks sitting in my inbox from at least 2 months ago 🥴🥴🥴 wild so that should give you an idea of how long it might take me to answer them.

[maboroshi-if]

Since it's pretty much an Uzumaki-Uchiha curse at this point will we get accidental kiss with Madara as well ?

Madara and Izuna looking at each other like:

"You kissed them too??"

[maboroshi-if]

Since Jiraya is a ro, is there a possibility of Orochimaru being one too? I know, I'm a weirdo. I regret nothing.

Lol you're not a weirdo nonnie. You aren't even the only one asking for Orochi to be a RO. HOWEVER, I don't know if I'm gonna do it 🥴🥴🥴 I've been sitting thinking about him and I--

You know what, fuck it. Orochimaru is an RO. You heard it here first 😭😭😭

[maboroshi-if]

Yooo!! I've seen a couple of Naruto IFs which is an awesome surprise but I've never seen one that said they were gonna have this level of depth to them. Having a time skip is gonna be super awesome.

Teehee, thank you nonnie!

A time skip is my way of being able to get into the nitty gritty (i.e., the darker parts) of the world of Naruto. For example, what made Orochimaru start experimenting, mutilating on other nin and people. It was always implied he was twisted but I want to give a further explanation of WHY he became that way.

Maboroshi is gonna be FULL of content, so I imagine that its gonna be super long and I'm gonna be working on it for a long time 🥴🥴
