Path of the Exaulted
Those following this path make use of the Rinnegan. This eye consists of a purple base with ripples emanating out from it. It is the last of the 3 great dojutsu, and is often revered as a myth. One who wields it takes up the mantle as either a “God of Creation,” bringing peace to warring nations, or as a “God of Destruction,” destroying all in their wake, reducing the realm to ashes. The only way to obtain this eye is to receive the chakra of its original user, Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, recreating it through the chakra of his sons, or to steal the eye entirely.

The DC to discover hit points in this manner is 15. You also gain truesight at 10ft.

On each of your turns for the duration, you can use your action to deal 5d8 psychic damage to affected creatures automatically.
A grappled creature can use its action to attempt to escape. To do so, it must succeed on a Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check contested by your Spellsave DC. A Tailed Beast can still attempt to escape this, despite being Paralyzed, but it makes the check at disadvantage.
Casting this Jutsu again on a different creature while concentrating on it does not break your concentration, however, concentrating on multiple instances of this Jutsu counts as one for the purpose of maintaining concentration.
Six Paths Mastered

Deva Path
Chibaku Tensei
- Cost: 30+ Chakra
- Range: Touch/1 mile
The ultimate ability of the Deva Path. You create a black sphere between your hands that you can then hurl within 1 mile of your position. When the sphere is activated, it generates a powerful gravitational pull, attracting everything in the vicinity to it until a large satellite is created; you control how large the satellite becomes but it cannot cover more than 160 feet. The satellite has its own gravity well.
Any creatures within 60 feet of the sphere upon activation must pass a strength saving throw or be pulled into it and be restrained and unable to breath. The range can be increased by 5 feet for every additional chakra point spent. Chibaku Tensei takes a full round (6 seconds) to complete, after which the sphere will stop pulling and the satellite will be formed.
You can move the sphere and satellite up to 1 mile to a new spot within range as a bonus action, or cause it and the satellite to impact at high speeds against a surface within 1 mile of it as an action.
Creatures inside the satellite cannot physically move. Hence they cannot make any actions, bonus actions or reactions requiring physical movement (such as hand seals, or somatic components). Upon impact, creatures inside the Chibaku Tensei must pass a strength saving throw or take 40d6 bludgeoning damage from the impact, while creatures outside must pass a dexterity saving throw or take 40d6 bludgeoning damage. On a success, creatures take half damage.
Chibaku Tensei can be dispelled by rendering the user unconscious or destroying the black sphere. The user can also dispel the technique as a bonus action, causing no harm from the falling debris. The sphere has an AC of 26 and has 30 HP. It is immune to Psychic damage but vulnerable to force damage.
Human Path
Absorption Soul Technique
- Cost: 20 Chakra
- Range: Touch
You place your hand on a creature and begin to rip their deepest secrets from their mind. The targeted creature must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 10d8 psychic damage on a failed save, and half as much on a success.

A creature reduced to 0 hit points by this technique dies instantly.
Animal Path
Summoning Rinnegan
- Cost: An amount of chakra equal to twice the CR of the creature (minimum of 1)
As the Rinnegan bearer, you gain the ability to summon forth obscure creatures of the animal world by using a more advanced alternative to the traditional Summoning Jutsu. You gain the service of up to 5 creatures of your choosing. Work with your DM to determine the origin of these creatures. The rules of Summoning follow the same as that of the Summoning Jutsu, with the exception of the following:
You do not need to form any seals or sacrifice any blood to summon these creatures. Creatures summoned this way do not have a will of their own and follow your absolute command without question. They also cannot speak. Creatures summoned this way contain copies of your Rinnegan. This allows you to see throw their eyes as if they were your own. You can choose a new creature and swap it with one of your current summoning creatures as part of your long rest. Whenever you summon a creature, their size becomes Huge regardless of their original size. Their hit die also increase to a d12 instead of their original die size. A willing humanoid can be set as Summoning Creature. For this purpose, the humanoid is not under your control and does not follow any of the Summoning rules, but it still requires a chakra cost to summon. If summoned, the humanoid is simply transported to the location it was summoned to. The creature's individual CR cannot exceed that of CR 10, with the exception of the humanoid summoning.
Naraka Path
Jigokudo
Cost: 25 Chakra
Duration: 1 minute
Range: Touch or Self (10 feet radius)
You summon a large disfigured head that sprouts from the ground amidst a vortex of purple flames known as the King of Hell and target all creatures you currently have grappled. The creatures must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become paralysed. While the creature is paralysed, you may question it at will. After the creature answers, the King of Hell unzips its mouth to release tendril-like arms and draws out an apparition of the creature's life force energy in the form of an enlarged tongue. If the creature lied during its interrogation, it must succeed on a DC 20 Deception check. On a failure, the King of Hell would remove the target's "tongue" and consume it, dealing 10d8 psychic damage to the creature and ending the effect on them. If the creature answered truthfully, the effect ends and the creature instead gains 1 level of exhaustion. A creature reduced to 0 hit points by this technique dies instantly. A creature that does not share a language proficiency with you is immune to this effect.
Alternatively when you cast this Jutsu, you can target a wounded creature within 10 feet of you. The King of Hell ingests the creature with its tendril-like arms. After 1 round, the creature regains 70 hit points and any conditions that were previously affecting it end. Any lost limbs are regained and the creature is otherwise returned to a perfect physical state. The creature then reemerges from the King of Hell's mouth. This Jutsu has no effect on undead.
Outer Path
Gedo Art of Rinne Rebirth
The Gedo Art of Rinne Rebirth is a reincarnation ninjutsu used through the Outer Path, which can infuse new life into the bodies of the dead in exchange for the user's own life.
When this technique is activated, the King of Hell emerges from the ground and releases the souls of the deceased from its mouth. These souls may be recalled from even the crossroad between life and the afterlife, and are then returned to their rejuvenated bodies. This counts as casting the True Resurrection spell without the 200 year limit.
This technique can also be used to transform the corpse vessel of an individual revived by Summoning: Impure World Reincarnation into a real body of living flesh and blood.
This technique has no limit to the amount of people you can resurrect, however once the technique is finished the user invariably dies and can only be brought back through the Wish spell or a similar technique.
Rinne Six Paths
You learn to raise the dead through the Black Receivers. When using this technique, you can instead target an amount of corpses equal to the amount of recievers you have available. After which, you can control each corpse at will -or under your own initiative during combat at a cost of 5 chakra per minute. This ability requires concentration to avoid the bodies being incapacitated.
Rinnegan Mastered
You have mastered the Rinnegan, and with that mastery comes additional jutsus. Choose two from the list as your 20th level Jutsus.
Limbo: Border Jail
When you create shadow clones, you can send them to the ethereal plane with the special ability to affect the same plane as yours. Those shadow clones can decide whether or not to be affected by anything not on the Ethereal Plane as a bonus action or reaction to being affected by anything.
Reign of the High Emperor
- Cost: 5 chakra
As a reaction, when you are targeted by a spell or Jutsu that deals damage, you absorb it with one eye and as a bonus action, on a subsequent turn, you send it back with your other eye. If the spell would have hit creatures other than you, they are also not effected. The spell or Jutsu uses the spell attack modifier and save DC of the original caster. When you roll for damage, you can increase the damage die by 1 for every additional chakra spent.
Amenotejikara
Cost: 5 Chakra
Range: 500 feet
As a bonus action or reaction to being targeted or being in the target range of an attack or spell effect, you teleport yourself to a space in range. You have to be able to see, visualize, or know the distance and direction, of the space.
You can bring objects along if the weight doesn't exceed your carrying capacity. You can also bring one willing creature within 5 feet of you, of your size or smaller.
If the space is occupied, its occupants are teleported to your previous location.
Kaimon
- Cost: 25
- Range: 30 feet
You create a 5 foot wide swirling hole in space anywhere within 30 feet of you.

Origami Replacement Technique
- Cost: 5+ Chakra
You can replace substitution jutsu with this ability. While subsituting, the user will disperse into dozens of red energy origami. During which, the user's chakra signature is completely masked, letting the user move unnoticed while reforming anywhere within 30 feet of your original position.
Custom Jutsu
Due to the unique nature of the Rinnegan, you can create your own Jutsu for this. Consult your DM and work together to decide what it does and how it works. As a general guideline, it should be no more powerful than a 9th level spell. If much less powerful than a 9th level spell, consider giving it a chakra cost.
