In this mod, every totem has been modified with different auras, no matter for allies or enemies, making combats less boring and more strategic by using totem combinations. Yes, every single totem, even Necromancer’s bored to death totem. And there’s more, more surprises as Naruto easter egg awaits to be explored by you. =)

Shinju’s Faith Aura(25m), Shinju’s Blood Aura, Shinju’s Guard Aura(15m), Lv.10 Leadership/Can bleed source, Source/Blessed fire ring/Cursed smoke cloud after death, Respawn Jubi after death.
Defensive totem with super long range buffs applied on allies. Significantly raises allies’ stats, provides infinite source and protects them from full incoming damage. Powerful totem as it is, eventually it will come with a consequence. Be careful when using it.
- Shinju
It is designed as an ancient tree form totem, with infinite source power. It bleeds source every turn on its own action, but if it gets hurt every time, new source will bleed out. After 7 turns, it dies and Jubi respawns right on its spot. There’s an unique skill book for it which is stored in one of the chest, but beware, the man who guards it is not easy. Preferably can be learnt on Lv.9. - Jubi
Although Jubi can be summoned no matter by the death of Shinju, or later can be learnt as a skill, it’s always in madness, attacks whoever it wants. It is guarded by a formidable god, who is designed as a terrifying existence. You may probably be able to learn this skill between Lv.12~15(Lone wolf) due to its strict requirements but obtain its skill book in advance is recommended as you only have the chance to have it in Fort Joy. One thing to notice is that, Jubi from Shinju’s death is overshadowed by player’s summoning one as the later enjoys Soul Bond enhancement. Oh, and try to water it frequently as it will overgrow!
Three extremely powerful bosses are designed, which each of them guards three chests, and they are tightly connected, by which you will find out the truth of Shinju and Jubi. Right combat orders are suggested as Quas, Exort, then Wax. The later the tougher, so get prepared to be team wiped. But you can customize your own way as always. Anyhow I will save it here and try not to be a spoiler.
This is my first mod and I haven’t fully done a test run yet so it’s inevitably unbalanced in some ways, maybe the totems are too powerful so the original NPCs won’t be enough, or the enemies added are beyond OP. So feel free to install other mods that makes you feel better to balance with this one, there shouldn’t be any compatibility issues.
Advices and bug reports are welcomed here and I will do my best to get it fixed for you. Enjoy=).
