Kirikoe heard as Koumei would clap, it came as a little shock as Kirikoe wasn't expecting to receive and applause of any kind, however not to long after talk of the spar came about once again, a smile slowly spread across Kirikoe's face, Kirikoe enjoyed combat and with a new found partner to aid him Kirikoe could not wait to prove himself more and utilise Enma, Kirikoe did chuckle at Amon and Koumei's little moment however that was short lived, in a matter of a few seconds the bisento came downwards aimed at Kirikoes head it seemed. "You don't have to tell me twice" Kirikoe responded to Koumei's words.

Kirikoe thought quickly and moved almost with instinct, Kirikoe moved himself forwards but a little so as to defend against the handle of the pole arm rather than its blade, as Kirikoe moved forwards he held Enma with both hands in a horizontal fashion.

To block the downward swing Kirikoe simply rose his right arm into the air, defending against the pole of the pole arm with Enma by knocking his opponents pole arm to the side with one end of the staff. This would cause his opponents pole arm to move off trajectory thus what Kirikoe actually performed was a type of parry.

During this process Kirikoe, using his left hand manoeuvred the bottom half of the staff upwards, as Kirikoe lifted the bottom of the staff upwards, simultaneously Kirikoe pulled the top half of the staff downwards, whiles performing this movement Kirikoe himself would be changing stance from a front ward facing stance and move himself into a leftward facing horse stances. "Lets do this Enma!" during this motion Enma extended himself as to come right under Koumei's chin, if not quickly defended it would surely smash him on the chin and possibly cause a knock out.

Yes I know =] the fact that Enma can still utilise his limbs allows for a lot of combo's and gives me a great advantage, if it wasn't enough defending from the staff itself they would have to worry about limbs that have the ability to extend as well.

Btw i actually know how to use a staff in real life :D although trying to put it down in the role play is a little hard to explain so I think thats the only part I will have to work on.

In the moment his student parried his downwards vertical slash, Amon's left hand and arm emerged from the bisentō. The sole purpose of Amon's emerging limb was to push the opposing weapon back as Kirikoe swiftly attempted to counterattack, which wouldn't be particularly hard given his own strength. At the same time that Amon pushes back the staff, he retracts the bisentō, so as to be better prepared for any further assault. "A valiant effort on your part", were the first words Koumei spoke. "Even I find it hard to keep up with the complex nature of these adamantine weapons at times. You've come far, Kirikoe, and now there's only one more technique left to learn. Enma! Trap Kirikoe for a moment!" In compliance with Koumei's order, Enma once again disappeared in a puff of smoke as the adamantine staff was cloned several times and structured to form a 'box' of sorts. "Go ahead and tell me if there are any other uses for this particular technique, other than to restrain someone. Also, what could some of its weaknesses be?"

♦ Your syntax is mostly fine, but for diction choices, try to use pronouns more often. Throughout your post, 'Kirikoe' was always used, even though 'he' would grant subsequent sentences after the first more flow. Keep it in mind.
♦ I liked your third paragraph, especially ending it by stating you performed a parry. Now, your last paragraph was a bit harder to follow. Your first sentence was quite long and cumbersome in wording, and you can always break long sentences into shorter sentences. Overall, your descriptions were solid, so there's no reason to continue this bit.
♦ Two more replies, then we will move onto the last phase: customs.

Kirikoe found his counter attack easily put to rest by Amon, it was no surprise his strength easily stopped Kirikoe's counter in its tracks, however Kirikoe was still praised for his attempt and Koumei was right, the complexity of the staff although it seems like a basic weapon is in fact a weapon that takes more thought and has more attack patterns than almost any other weapon, Kirikoe was proud to here that his monkey shishou was pleased.

Now it seemed as if they were moving on, good, Kirikoe was ready to learn the next stage, without further talk Koumei instructed Enma to trap Kirikoe, he was a little surprised but it seemed his shishou was not finished and proceeded to explain. Kirikoe replied to the questions he was confronted with earnestly.

"This technique could be used offensively, it would be quite a surprise if I were to throw Enma into the air and whiles engaging my opponent in hand to hand only to have a strong heavy cage fall on them, also good for blocking weapons from multiple directions it seems, weaknesses? I see a few, being that its a cage means that it obviously has wholes in it, meaning that water techniques, wind techniques and fire techniques all easily pass through and this jutsu doesn't really stop them, it could however be affective against certain earth techniques. as well as techniques designed to restrain"

Ok I will be sure to keep that in mind, thank you for pointing that out =P

"Yes, I'd say you covered pretty much everything regarding the technique. Oh? Would you look at that, this is great timing since the sun is starting to set!" With an overly dramatic flourish of the bisentō he still held in his right hand, he proceeded to promptly slam it into the ground, blade-first. "Go home, Amon. As always, you did well." Before disappearing without leaving a trace, Amon snorted as he spoke: "It's about time; I'm ready for a nap." With his partner gone, Koumei returned his attention to his student. "You're free to send Enma-san on his way too. Also, you must be a bit peckish, no? Since I've already got supplies, I'll go ahead and cook us up something for supper. After we're done eating, you're free to spend the evening as you want. Be ready for an early morning, though!"

Ah, good was worried I had missed something" replying to Koumei, Kirikoe soon after, turned his head towards the setting sun, taking in its beauty and magnificence, watching as it set and enjoying the tranquillity of the forest, "Thank you Enma for your assistance, you may take you leave and sleep, im sure you are somewhat tired" as he spoke he had a very peaceful and cheerful smile, Enma simply replied with a few words "In which case I will take my leave and do just that", in a puff of smoke Enma dispelled and returned to whence he came.

Koumei after sending Amon on his way began to speak of food, ah food, you know that thing, that we forgot, "Ah! I completely forgot about eating! Now that you mention it I could do with something to eat."

Ah, there is one question i have.

Enma how long does he stay on the field once summoned and what level of attack does it take for him to dispell?

And thank you ^^

So, your question will actually constitute a good segue into our discourse on customs. As there is no turn limit explicitly stated for Enma, he, like many other canon summonings, is allowed an indefinite stay on the battlefield. As far as restrictions go, this is one of the major distinguishing points for A/S-rank summonings between canon and custom. Recall my Amon summoning, and you'll note his standard form is restricted to just 4 turns. Moreover, this is the general rule of thumb for custom summonings, and you can see it present with the elemental toads that were donated to the canon list [ ]. Now, low-level custom summonings could potentially remain on the field longer, if not indefinitely. Overall, for the higher ranked summonings, the standard duration parameter would be between three and six turns, with three turns perhaps allowing the summoning to be called forth twice, instead of just once per battle.

Since we're delving into information regarding ranks, you should know that the only prohibited rank for a custom summoning is F-Rank (forbidden). Members have submitted creatures of many contracts from D to S-rank, and such decisions are entirely at your discretion. Keep in mind, though, that a summoning's abilities should have a comparable rank to their summoning rank. Now, any questions regarding ranks or summoning durations?

For duration, refer above. Anything that would sufficiently harm or outright kill him.​

Ah I see, I new about most summonings distinctively those of S rank may only remain on the field a total of 4 turns. MU has mentioned that most likely any more would be declined.

As for Enma im glad to hear its indefinite

I don't think so, that was pretty much my only question that springs to mind as such. Oh there is one more, Enma has shown the ability to extend his limbs is there a limit on how far he can stretch them? we saw him stretch his limb to try and crush Orochimaru's neck

Ah, having things declined; there're many other things to avoid. Hopefully, the most obvious thing to be declined, would be a summoning utilizing a kekkei genkai and the like. I believe long ago that some summonings, were approved, that could use, say, lava release or other things unlikely to be approved nowadays. Simply put, that epoch has passed. Below is a general list of both approval and declinable things, to use as a guideline/starting point for customs.

AcceptableDeclinable
Basic Elements + RainKekkei Genkai / HA / Space-Time
Taijutsu/KenjutsuThings w/out Personal Training
Limited Genjutsu/Fūinjutsu/SoundFull canon list: Genjutsu/Fūinjutsu/Sound
Certain CFSCE/CC Stuff
Species Unique Abilities/NinjutsuGeneric Sensory

I go by standard limb length, ask Scorps if more is possible.

Start by telling me which ones need any clarification.​

The list is very helpful and gives me a basis of where to start roughly, I already have a few idea's with customs, and just wondering what you mean by things w/out personal training?

Most of the other stuff is pretty self explanatory

Moving beyond the guideline, I want to mention a bit more about certain things. Something to keep in mind with creating customs, at least for names and the like, is potentially having a 'theme' of sorts. For example, all the monkeys I submit (bar one) will be named after Djinn, based on the types of magic they utilize in Magi. Another good example would be MU's ligers, which revolve around the theme of 'Greek heroes'. Of course, themes can also extend to the abilities of each of the animals, again, that'll be up to you to decide. Also, really important is choosing everything wisely! Canon contracts may have only 5 animals approved per member! Moreover, the accompanying techniques to any of them will count towards the allotted 35 CJ most members are allowed to submit over their RP career.

Without proper training in a given field, you may not submit customs related to the particular area.

Please read the section entitled:

I did notice your customs being based after Magi. Another reason why it caught my eye. xD

Ok just so I know im getting this right. I can have 5 custom summons of a canon contract, these 5 custom summons do not go towards the 35 CJ limit however the accompanying techniques such as the ability to extend would do.

Also say if I do not have any training in Doton, Could I still submit a custom summoning that utilises it?

Mostly Correct! Extensibility can be lumped in the custom adamantine weapon submissions.​

No, you may not. The point I was trying to make is that without training in, say, genjutsu, you can't submit a summoning that can use it. Also, how far along you are with your training will factor in to what rank of the techniques the summoning may use. For example, if you had Doton at B-Ranks, you could have a monkey submitted that uses Doton up to B-Rank, but not higher. This is at least in part to prevent people from running around with even more restricted things, such as sound, via a summoning, which is meant to be something only a small minority can use.

Any final questions, regarding anything we've discussed? Or haven't?​

No no, that last question was the last thing i really needed to know thank you =], you have been a great help.

I was told before a while back that you could submit summonings that can use something even if you do not have the training so you have just made things much more clearer for me thank you =]

After a peaceful evening of undisturbed sleep, Koumei awoke just as dawn began. Recalling that his student was also probably sleeping nearby, he bellowed: "Oi, Kirikoe-kun, wake up!" As his student came to meet him, Koumei bowed before him. "Today, you are officially recognized as a signer of the Monkey Contract. Normally, we would part ways here and now, but you've shown enough merit for me to bring you to 'Monkey Restaurant'. Located deep within the Land of Valley, that is where my primary residence is, and also where I'd be willing to teach you more regarding monkeys. Once you've gathered your belongings, we will depart immediately for the Land of Valley!"​
