Sage Mode & Sage Arts System
Description:
Sage Mode is the ability to first discern nature energy, absorb it into one's body, and then integrate it with the spiritual and physical energy residing within. It is for this reason that those wishing to utilize Sage mode must possess both high levels of chakra and a body strong enough to withstand the additional power. Those who are lacking have been known to turn to stone. However those capable few will find that tempering their own energy with that of nature's own will dramatically empower their abilities. This ability is what defines a sage and allows one to enter into a Sage Mode. Those who have not been trained to use senjutsu, the augmentation of jutsu with nature energy, are not capable of seeing the nature energy in techniques augmented by it. Due to the difficulty in complete mastery over nature energy, most if not all who learn to utilize sage mode from animals with take on characteristics of their teachers while they utilize it. This typically includes a change in the eyes to match their teacher's species, and sometimes additional features such as fur, scales, feathers, slime, or warts. Always included is boost to one's physical capabilities.
A person who is able to use senjutsu is called a sage or Sennin. The most common method by which one learns to be a sage is through the tutelage of animal which has learned to harness nature energy. These creatures and rare and often very old. The only known way in which shinobi have learned to find such beings is through summoning pacts made with the beasts that reside within what is known as the sage lands. The other method by which individuals learn to harness the power of sage mode is under the training and guidance of a human who has learned to utilize nature energy without the assistance of animal kind. Those taught in this second manner become known as Human Path Sages. Those of the human path who enter Sage Mode take on a change in eye color and a more toned body.
