Several Many Questions

[Tyro]

• 1 Non- Ninja/ Samurai: Can they use Academy Techniques
  
• 2 When creating a mercenary, their highest rank determines what the highest what they may learn. Is that going byyy Primary-S rank Secondary- B rank, or Chuunin B rank, Gennin C rank, what exactly, Im confused.
  
• 3 This technique:
  
  Ronin-Satsugai no Fuin (Seal of the Bladed Warrior) 300
  Rank: S
  Type: Supplementary / Juuinjutsu (Seals & Barriers)
  Range: -
  Handseals: No
  Chakra: Massive [activation] | High [Upkeep]
  Special: Essentially doubles the Samurai's chakra capacity when activated by opening their chakra pathways, in a somewhat similar way to Hachimontonkou (although less barbaric). However, because of this, it prevents Samurai from molding chakra finely in terms of jutsu, making handseals and whatnot useless due to the sudden chakra rush. Upon being accepted as a Samurai, this seal is place on the user. Cannot be bought and instead must be RP'ed out as part of the Samurai's initiation.
  Description: The Seal of the Bladed Warrior was the Samurai founder's secret to attaining a new level of power. Knowledge borrowed from their neighboring chakra experts, Whirlpool, the Samurai Clan developed a seal that would ensure the self-preservation of all Samurai, as well as their place in new history. By binding an advanced seal at the core of their chakra network directly after birth, the Samurai essentially created a steady, sustained flow of pure, raw chakra. Constantly feeding outwards and unable to be turned off, this sudden increase in their chakra output allows them to remain on par with their shinobi counterparts by producing a combination of raw, powerful attacks with their traditional Bushido, at the cost of being unable to create seals and mold chakra properly due to the pressure of the surging energy. The seal itself is a combination of ancient kanji and other shapes, and is usually placed on the chest.
  Domain: Samurai
  
  How much chakra is it giving the Samurai, if any, it seems like you'd burn out pretty rapidly. Also is it appropriate to double the chakra pool like I did in my sidebar, for this technique.
  
  
• 4. Can Mercs be trained any further after being bought. Would that require EXP or Ryo.

(1) Non ninja may not start off with the academy trchniques but can be taught icly from a shinobi who does. The same applies for samurai in terms of training icly.

(2) Yes, it still matters what ur type is (primary bin or tai, etc.) when talking on terms of using jutsu. It may be worded differently but just stick to the universal rule of primary up to s, secondary up to b, etc. until its clairified further.

(3) No do not update ur sidebar that jutsu is used icly as somewhat of a trump card from how its described. As for how much chakra does it give, it simply boosts the users chakra level up from what it was before. I.e. very low =low etc.

(4) As of now there are no systems pertaining to ranking up a mercenary so i would say no to this one as well, wait until further clarified through update to modify a mercenary because as of now that is in the grey area.

1. Walk on water? Not exactly a technique. Also specifically would a Samurai be able to learn the techniques considering they can't "mold chakra properly".

2. Universal Techniques would cost no addition to the "basic releases/fighting styles" Im assuming. Just take them to fill up exp?
