The Tomoed Rinnegan (or Sharinnegan) is a heightened state of Rinnegan that has only been achieved by a rare few, though unlike Rinne-Sharingan, it elevates the pre-existing Rinnegan itself instead of manifesting a third eye on the forehead. Although the specific circumstances of obtaining it vary from person to person, the unified requirement of possessing a natural rinnegan, evolved from a pair of Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan through combination of Uchiha and Senju chakra/genetics, remains. Needless to say implanters need not bother, for even trying to steal the eye(s) of someone who has obtained it will make the tomoes fade as the eye regresses to its prior state, unable to be evolved again.
RP Rulings[]
Due to unanimous player agreement, back in June 16th 2017 on the SL Forum, for sake of game balance the rinnegan (tomoe version included) and sage mode can't be used together by the same character.
Even if a sage obtains rinnegan, entering sage mode or senninka transformation will immediately cease all abilities of the dojutsu as long as they last, and limit the eye to simple normal human sight. Even shared vision with path bodies can't be used, nor black rods be created.
The seven star tattoo and curse seal aren't included in the ban due to their inherent differences and weaknesses.
Obtaining[]
Tomoe Rinnegan activated
While Rinne-Sharingan remains obtainable only to those who have either eaten the chakra fruit of a Shinju or sealed it within themselves, Tomoed Rinnegan can be awakened theoretically by anyone who has obtained the 'base' Rinnegan through natural means. Although the specifics of its obtainment vary between individuals, overall it is ultimately achieved in a way surprisingly similar to how an ordinary Sharingan is improved: mastering the eye by cultivating its own unique chakra and abilities, while putting ones self through sufficiently stressful, potentially even life-threatening, situations.
While the process may sound simple enough on paper, in practice it is so gruelingly difficult that very few in the whole world even know of its existence to begin with, much less think it possible or worth at all to obtain. What good is power if one is left too crippled to even stand on their own feet afterwards? To this day, those who have successfully obtained it are so rare they could be counted with the fingers of one hand, and even they sport their individual differences with it; one is unable to deactivate the eye outside of exhaustion, another is only able to manifest it during great emotional stress. A third was only ever able to manifest it in one eye out of two due to his own Rinnegans limitations (though his ability potency does not suffer), a fourth is capable of utilizing Mangekyō Sharingan techniques with her default Rinnegan but manifests the tomoes when utilizing a branch of her power.
Abilities[]
Six Tomoe Rinnegan in use
The Tomoe Rinnegan is essentially a fusion between its owners Sharingan and Rinnegan, making it possible to utilize the abilities of both dōjutsu on the same time, whereas before, he/she would have had to switch between them every time (if able to switch at all). On its own it does not grant any new abilities to either eye set whatsoever, but it isn't impossible an user may create their own artificial combinations (e.g. an ashura path firing amaterasu flames instead of a chakra laser). As a caution overuse of the of eyes' Rinnegan based powers or the user being severely weakened in general will cause them to temporarily lose their tomoes as well, leaving the user able to wield only weakened versions of either eye's basic abilities in their individual states, incapable of manifesting the Tomoe Rinnegan again until they have sufficiently recovered. This recovery period may take quite a while depending on its causes, such as massive eye strain from overuse taking anywhere from weeks to a month or two in absence of outside help.
Variations[]
There are currently five known variants of the Tomoe Rinnegan. The differences seem to be purely aesthetic.
