Old Written Test Example;
Assume you are explaining all of these to the same student.
1. Suppose you have a student who has no understanding of chakra whatsoever. Explain what chakra is as if you were explaining to your student, assuming they have no prior knowledge to help them. Explain thoroughly and in such a way as to keep questions asked by your student to a bare minimum (avoid vague terms and explain yourself fully).
2. Suppose you are introducing a completely new RPer to the Wind element. As there are various aspects to chakra manipulation, how might you teach them to exhale wind techniques from their mouth? What about manipulating the air around themselves? Feel free to utilize existing canon jutsu as an example (no need to copy/paste the full technique from NB). Also include a brief description of the element to explain all of its capabilities
3. Suppose you are introducing a completely new RPer to Ninjutsu. Explain to your student the different applications of non-elemental Ninjutsu, as well as what the NarutoBase Ninjutsu list primarily revolves around. Once again, explain so that as few questions as possible remain at the end of your explanation. Feel free to utilize existing canon jutsu as an example (no need to copy/paste the full technique from NB).
Assume you have a 'seasoned member' of NarutoBase as a student. Someone who knows the basics but needs help becoming better.
4. When fighting in the RP, it is more than likely that one will come across the standard 'nuke-throwing' phase, which is simply the use of various elemental techniques back and forth to try and overpower one's opponent. Knowing that chakra is a valuable resource, explain the importance of conserving chakra and the best way to do so in a fight.
5. It is fairly common that people waste the three allocated jutsu slots during a battle. Suppose that your opponent uses an A-Rank Earth technique: how might you successfully counter this to not waste a second jutsu slot?
6. Timeframe is an important and vital concept in the RP and those who lack understanding of it can often cause arguments in a fight. Read the following passage below and number in order the sequence of events that occur, regardless if they were supposedly interrupted or not. More than one action can be included per number.
His foot dug into the ground - he could not be sure of his footing today. Kabuto took several steps back, his eyes still focused on his opponent's stance. Then he brought hands up, deliberately, flashing through several familiar handseals. Of what he knew of the Sharingan, it could detect chakra - if he could split himself into three different forms, then it would become harder for his opponent to detect him. (To make the battle less confusing, only two Shadow Clones are created, named Black and White.) Almost immediately, he commanded one of his clones to activate one of his favorite jutsus. The shadows disappeared and rain began to fall - Kabuto shuddered, both with the excitement and the cold. An ominous feeling hung over the battlefield as the sun vanished in the sky, only to be replaced by gloomy clouds. He found himself gripping a kunai within his stash of tools, taking deep breaths of the cold air in order to stabilize his blood pressure. The grass weakened beneath him, transforming into mud, and he dug his ninja sandals within the ground, maintaining a defensive stance, ready to react to anything that would happen next.
Techniques used: Lightning Shadow Clone and Rain Tiger at Will.
Battle Scenarios and Judgement Calls
7. After ambushing Chris' house in an attempt to steal his secret stash of weed, you are sadly caught red-handed. Frozen in spot, a white snake rises from the ground, wrapping itself around your body in a technique you are rather familiar with. You can see Chris rapidly approaching from a distance, bringing with him all the wrath of a drunk Dionysus. What are two ways, given that you are completely immobilized, to *release* yourself from this unfortunate scenario? (And hopefully escape)
8. After a small scuffle with his eternal enemy, Detective L was sent flying back about twelve meters from a simple blow by his opponent. Sputtering angrily, he shouted at Noni as he proceeded to form the Tiger handseal. "You fodder! I'll get you for that (I AM THE BEST OF THE 2013 GEN)". He then stopped the ground with his foot, causing a slicing jet of water to rise up and make a straight beeline towards Noni. What is wrong with this scenario?
9. You are assigned a battle test to proctor because the other senseis are all busy and each have at least on battle test of their own. The ability that you are to test on is Toad Sage Mode on a custom biography. Which test bio (s) would you use for the battle test, and as proctor, what kind of jutsus or scenarios would you use to assure the testee showcases full usage of their bios?
10. What are some measures of caution that you might take against Sound users (assuming you are aware of their ability)?

New Written Test
Consists of 9 questions
2 tasks
Over a set period, either for both or each with their time.
Includes aspects from training, battle checking and conducting a battle test.
9 questions divided into three sections, 3 questions on battle checking, 3 questions on conducting battle tests and 3 questions on training.
2 tasks, one consisting of checking a pre-made battle scenario and one to train a specific student in their respective preferred advanced skill.
Battle Checking:
1. You are faced with checking a battle in the Ninja World. What is required from both parties in order for your check to be valid, and what exactly are you required to do when you do check a battle?
2.
3.
Conducting Battle Tests:
1. You are required to conduct a battle test for Yakushi Kabuto. What are you specifically looking for in the actions of the testee? What do they have to showcase in this specific test, and why? Also, what biography would be ideal to use in this battle test, and for what purpose?
2.
3.
Training:
1. You are teaching a student in a specified field of your choice (from the advanced fields). How would you introduce this student to this field, in your own words at the beginning of training? And what would you do, that's unique and differentiates your description from every other one made before?
2.
3.
Tasks:
1. You are now required to check a battle (which will be made with a specific purpose of being checked by said individuals). This check requires the testee to find issues in the fight, and see how they can grade it, and offer their own conclusions and advice to the ones fighting (what me and Adachi planned to do).
