Mylania's Chakra System

Because we've all gotten used to chakra, and most of us refer to the energy we use as chakra, we'll be labeling the base energy used in our RP as chakra. This goes for all forms of energy used on site, no matter from what source.

However, since this site caters to more than just shinobi, it would be redundant to say that all chakra is the same. Therefor chakra in Mylania will be split into two categories.

Ki

Ki is the physical energy used to perform ninjutsu and other feats. Ninja rely on ki primarily. All jutsu, no matter the source or type, uses Ki. Hand signs are usually used to manipulate ki, however, it is quite akin to a spell casters chant.

Chi

Chi is the spiritual energy used to perform magic and other feats. Of course, magicians rely primarily on chi. Spells that draw from either the user, a medium, or a nearby source such as water or a tree are harnessing that objects or person spiritual energy. Usually spoken words are used to channel chi, as a mystic tongue is used when casting spells. However, some beings are natural magic users and do not need an incantation to cast spells.

The World's Energy

The world itself is what gives all beings the ability to use chakra. The world's soul produces chi while the heart of the planet produces ki. The world never runs out of chi nor ki due to the power of the Infinity Cycle.

The Infinity Cycle is the actual movement of ki and chi through and around the planet. Ki is exhausted out through the north pole of the world and orbits it halfway, arching east around the planet before entering the south pole. Ki is then converted into Chi, which does the same cycle, only arching west around the planet. Chi and Ki constantly enter and exit the planet, evolving as it does into a more powerful chi and ki. If the Infinity Cycle was ever to halt, people would slowly lose their ability to perform ninjutsu and magic, and soon the planet would wither and die as well.
