Each Ninja when they start out makes a decision, often based on family wishes, about what kind of a ninja they are going to be. Whilst all Ninjas share many common traits, there are also many elements that are different from one ninja to the next. There are 3 main basic types of ninja techniques: Taijutsu (physical attacks), Ninjutsu (illusory attacks) and Genjutsu (illusory tricks). Whilst both Ninjutsu and Genjutsu are illusions, the Ninjutsu fireball will do real physical damage, while the Genjutsu fireball will only do damage if you do not release it. All Genjutsu illusions can be released by using a technique called "kai", which will show what the truth behind the illusion was. Ninjutsu illusions cannot be released. Genjutsu is more about wearing down an opposition, damaging them little by little until there is little left. Once an enemy is trapped by Genjutsu, they can die instantly.

Some ninjas, however, choose to focus more on the objects that ninjas use in battle and as part of their jutsus. They instead focus on making shurikens hit more often, making weapons stronger, they make fans cause great tornadoes, make puppets come to life and fight for them, they make bombs and other traps, and they can create and manipulate a wide variety of other objects. These ninjas are called Ninja Artists.

They include: sealing jutsus, forbidden jutsus, clan-only jutsus or kekkei genkai (blood limit jutsus, that only certain clans get), special jutsus associated with your blood summon and a wide variety of other things.
