It had been almost a millennia since the great Sage of the Six Paths had bestowed upon the Shinobi world the knowledge of Ninshu. The power to connect oneself to another by the chakra that composed the world and the energy that gorged the lands with life. The world as our heroes know it has been molded by the teachings of the sage, bent or kept true to the original concepts. Ninjutsu was the true end-result of these teachings, a great tool that could be used for many great things, just as it could be used for terrible things. Many would say the pros outweigh the cons, and in the end, there will always be someone to wrong others with just about anything that could be turned into a weapon.
The world is not just the known Shinobi world, however. There exist many lands, some of which had been blessed by Hagoromo in his many adventures, while others did not get this chance before he'd succumb to his own mortality. Today, our heroes will discover just what kind of world is left behind, one forgotten by the Gods and left to to fend off the world on its own. A world which they don't even have a true name for, other than the 'New Continent'.
Formed two centuries following the formation of Konohagakure, the nation hidden under the rain was founded by many who rejected the rites and customs of the growing powerhouses in the Shinobi world. They would come to form a peculiar city, one made of metal and concealed behind the unique usage of rain by the first founding father. It prospered as its own, isolated power though with little workable land surrounding it, preventing any violent expansion. Farmlands were drowned by endless drizzles while other trades were dominated by neighboring nations.
So instead of trying to establish itself internationally, Ame's unique structures and engineering knowledge from the Sunagakure outcasts would lead to the Pipe-like architecture it still holds today. With its powerful industry, it was ahead of other nations and could be self-sufficient for generations. It stagnated to an extent, but its existence was ensured in the face of a world that could so easily destroy them should they have had anything of value behind what they hid behind the rain.
Fast forward to the Second Great Shinobi War, thirty years in with no end in sight, Konohagakure along with the help of Kirigakure and Sunagakure form the 'Rainfall' initiative. Consisting of establishing an international Organization of the same name in Amegakure that would allow every nation to be represented on neutral, but controlled grounds. While not exactly an invasion, many of Amegakure protested this approach, though with The Empire's violent expansion during the war effort, there was enough incentive to compromise.
Amegakure today is a sort of hub. Getting nationality there is near impossible but trading and political summits have exploded, bringing enormous value to the nation. As of now, it is the biggest city in the entire Shinobi world, with a center more urbanized and innumerable acres of industrial land surrounding it. Smog perpetually covers the skies and has brought forth unnerving acidic rain the past twenty years. No one comes here for vacation, you're here for business or to attend talks. Or you so happen to be from here.
In any case, you in particular, are here for a very specific job.
Two months after a particularly unsettling wave of terrorist attacks in every great nation, you are summoned to Amegakure with the goal clearly set for you to absorb. You are to discover the land little to no one ever talks about. The New Continent. How it connects to the bizarre plague that had ravaged smaller city-blocks and suburbs is completely up in the air. Maybe it didn't have any relation at all. But you remember it. The Quarantines and the very hush-hush nature of it all. No one you truly knew was affected, otherwise you wouldn't have had the chance to attend this mission after all.
You are flown in along with other Shinobi and odd figures on a large VTOL craft from your capital city. The trip is relatively short, after all these are quality ships for quality goods. When Ame's atmosphere is penetrated, you can feel the unusually polluted air fill your lungs and burn your nostrils. It's unpleasant, along with the humidity in warm days. It was one of these times were the City was at its worse, but you weren't here to enjoy the foreign land. You have a job to do and it didn't involve Amegakure from what you knew.
A stay in a hotel near the Great Hall would be granted to you while the brief date comes. No more than a couple of days really, but enough for you to relax and prepare yourself for the upcoming challenge. Probably the most dangerous mission of your life. You've had all your life to prepare yourself for this, something none of your ancestors had the chance to do.
It is time. The due date you had been anticipating. That everyone was anticipating. Every participating Shinobi would be gathered in a sort of Amphitheater, each row occupied by a team. There were more than four squads, though some had more important tasks than others. But the others did not matter; what did was your own squad. Those sitting next to you, assigned to a specific seat number where you would face a blank, white screen with a uniformed Sunagakure Jonin standing stiff before you all. His expression was void of any emotion or reaction from the presence of the fresh Shinobi.
The briefing was going to start soon and after that, there would be no time for chit-chat and preparation. You should be equipped with everything you need and ready to fight the good fight on the way out. You already knew the procedure. What you lacked was any sort of tangible context behind this expedition or why it's a thing all of a sudden. Answers were coming, but are you prepared? Are you colleagues ready for this? Do you even know them? How do you feel about putting your life between their hands in the midst of the most mysterious lands on this world? The Head-Jonin was about to commence the brief.

【Rank】 Jonin
【Chakra Nature】 Wind
【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Soryu easily stands out from most crowds due to not only his bright blue hair and golden eyes this doesn't 'stand out' in animu land son but the dignified fashion in which he carries himself idem. He only stands at an average height and while his body is toned and athletic it is often concealed by the standard Konoha uniform and flak jacket so truly it is his handsome mlady face and unique hair that would get him the most attention. When not on-duty he often wears casual and lazy clothes, such as t-shirts and jeans, though he never wears any headgear. His Konoha forehead protector is worn around his left bicep like an armband, if he's even wearing it. As a whole Soryu appears as a man who could stand out far more than he does if he desired, a remnant of his royal bloodline royal to what? the six acre empire of blue fags?. One could mistake him for a model of some kind if they met him without knowing anything about him.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 Without even opening his mouth one can begin to assess what Soryu is like. His posture and body language practically radiates charisma. When he smiles it appears friendly and genuine. When he ponders it appears as if his thoughts are deep and poetic. When he moves it appears graceful and dignified. all this poise to say he's a fucking poser ugh, reminds me of spanner's jihad against punctuation Soryu is a man that is capable, both physically and socially. Easy to befriend and trust, easy to listen to; he makes a great person to hold a conversation with even for small talk. For all the outwardly positive traits he seems to have, deep down Soryu is a calculated person with a very potent mask. Always wary of those around him, he absorbs as much information as he can from those he meets to keep a mental profile of all potential allies and enemies. Though he lacks ambition he finds drive in the thrill of the shinobi lifestyle. Combat and outwitting stronger opponents gives him the motivation to carry on. Though he is a capable man he knows his limits and his weaknesses, which is why he often avoids positions of leadership good, i hate ooc leadership tug of wars. Being responsible for other people is something he doesn't believe he is good at, though he is confident that he can operate effectively under any leader himself. An effective lone wolf but a powerful teammate, Soryu is also quick to understand the skills of his allies (and his enemies). At the end of the day, Soryu seems almost like a man who could be larger-than-life with a little push in the right direction and he seems to know this. But the secrets that he keeps and his own shortsighted desires hold him back from becoming a cult of personality, for better or for worse. tl;dr he's a frat boy with ninja powers and hates responsibility
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 Born to the Shinano household, located in the heart of Konohagakure long after taking refuge from their previous land, Soryu was raised on the ideology of birthrights and fate. That one day his family would regain power in the Land of Bones and birth a new nation nice meme, and that Soryu or one of his descendants could be the one to do this. Visions of grandeur and hollow talks of vengeance echoed throughout the halls of the Shinano mansion throughout his youth. The borderline brainwashing held no effect over Soryu despite his family's best efforts to raise him to be like them. A fruitless plan by people who would never actually take action, all over a desolate land that will never be restored, did not appeal to him even from a young age. who the fuck would want to rule a place called 'land of bones' anyway? jesus
The meaningless life presented to him left much to be desired. He couldn't care less over what bloodlines meant or what happened in history long past. Soryu lived in the present and he needed to find something to alleviate the lethal boredom of a forgotten clan trying to cling to life. The great war that had been raging since long before he was born was a point of interest to him from a very young age and largely motivated him to attend the Ninja Academy and become a shinobi. His father allowed him to do this under the pretense that these skills he would learn would one day bring the Shinano clan's secret plot to fruition its a coup d'etat and this guy's older brother kills them all, that Soryu was the one destined to restore their royalty and lead them "back" to greatness. Unfortunately for his father, Soryu never intended to help his family in their plight. He was far more selfish than that.
Rather, he became a shinobi to give his life true meaning. He had always lived in the moment and the action and promise of a thrilling and dangerous job appealed to him. Soryu was a promising student, near the top of his class he's not even a jock, he's a top tier prep, kaiba jack atlas levels in marks and well connected with his classmates socially. Many of the adults thought his attitude would change, if not completely break, once he actually was sent off to fight in the war instead of training in the safety and comfort of Konoha. After all, Soryu led an easy life devoid of tragedy or challenge. His family wasn't murdered, he wasn't scarred, he never went hungry, and never even particularly faced physical pain. Had he not gone to the war as a genin he could've perhaps lived his whole life in the comfort of the Shinano mansion, pretending that he would one day act upon dated vengeance and subsisting on boredom. Instead he challenged himself. absolute douchebag
His first battle was a bloody one, with his squad assisting Kumo forces in defending an outpost near their border with the Land of Bones. One of his genin squadmates was killed, along with a dozen Kumo shinobi and dozens of Kumo soldiers. Soryu himself received only some bruising and exhaustion, and though the battle was a loss and they had to retreat he had distinguished himself already with his efforts. He never stood out like a prodigy and thus nobody had high expectations of him, but how well he defended himself and the fact that he managed to recover his squadmate's body earned him praise. This was the beginning of what would become a solid career for Soryu. He was a quick learner and adapted very well to whatever he was told to do. After being promoted to chuunin he became known for his dependability and flexibility. He was assigned many missions for the duration of the war, which many were successful and kept him in the favor of Konoha's leaders. did a cool at war, commended, saw some shit. ok
Not many people would bring up Soryu when talking about war heroes cuz he's one of too many. Most Konoha shinobi know him but his lack of flashy and distinguishing feats basically he's boring would make many consider infamous prodigies and clever leaders to be the real heroes of Konoha's forces. Though some have given him recognition for his consistent performance over the years, enough so that he was promoted to jonin after the war had ended. After he returned home to Konohagakure for good, his family once again approached him to suggest he use his clout as a jonin and a war veteran to begin cozying up to Konoha figureheads for ill intentions. Soryu finally made his own intentions clear to his family and said he would do what he wants, though he wished them good luck on their endeavors (if only in a sarcastic way). What he originally sought to escape had begun to haunt him again with the end of the war: boredom. There were no foes to challenge him, no obstacles to overcome. Though he had friends to spend time with and the occasional assignment he was left feeling without a purpose...
Until it was time to explore the New Continent. weeee
【Special Traits】 + Versatile + Intelligent and devious + Adaptable + Skilled in using many weapons and tools + Physically capable and skilled at martial arts + Respectable stealth no + Charismatic
Name of Weapon or Item: Ryu-ha Description: A wakizashi with a black hilt and saya, indistinguishable from normal swords other than the Shinano family crest it bears at the top of the saya. Made of very high quality steel and sharpened with care, this sword would be sold for a very high price. However, this weapon isn't particularly special other than being more durable than the average wakizashi. Appearance: A short sword with a slight curve, ordained with a plain black hilt.
Name of Weapon or Item: Longbow Description: A recurve bow made of wood. Standard by design with a hefty draw weight of 100lbs, it can launch arrows out to 350m though Soryu's accuracy at that range is questionable. He is very accurate with it out to 150m though. Kept on his back, along with a quiver of eight broadhead arrows and two exploding arrows. pales next to boshu's js' pleblord Appearance: It's a bow, dude.
Name of Weapon or Item: Steel Knuckles Description: Like brass knuckles, but made of steel to be more durable and heavy. Using them slows Soryu's punches only slightly but increases his striking power significantly. Appearance: This isn't a tough one.
Name of Weapon or Item: Standard shinobi equipment Description: Shuriken, kunai, wire, smoke bombs, and explosive tags all stored in various pouches located along Soryu's belt when in uniform. Appearance: bruh
Name of Technique: Wind Release: Airflow Sensing Technique Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: B Range: Long Nature Type: Wind Description: After completing the required handseals, Soryu takes a deep breath. Once he exhales he releases his chakra into the air around him in the form of wind and scatters it in every direction. This allows him to sense all physical objects out to approximately two hundred meters on a windless day. The reliability of this technique is somewhat impacted by weather, as rain or snow will hinder his range while a strong breeze will increase it in the direction of the breeze but decrease it upwind. It takes about twenty seconds to reach the full range of his technique and he will generally continue detection for another twenty seconds before his chakra disperses too much and he can no longer feel it anymore. ok sensory
【Summon】 Name: Yatagarasu Abilities: Though he can be summoned in the middle of combat, Yatagarasu (often just called "Yata" for short) is much better suited for a support role. He can fly and scout an area, which is useful in tandem with his ability to telepathically communicate both what he says and what he sees with an intended partner (Soryu in most cases). Aside from intelligence gathering he also has the ability to shed some of his feathers and create a down with healing properties, capable of healing minor wounds almost instantly and rejuvenating stamina. Obviously limited in use for the limited amount of feathers, generally allowing only one use per week. crow that heals. next up a whale that suckerpunches Appearance: A three-legged crow only slightly larger than a normal bird. Its feathers are dark and rugged. While it is missing its left eye, the right eye has a yellow glow that shines in stark contrast to its otherwise dark figure.

【Chakra Nature】 -Futon -Doton
【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Consistently dressed in black got that out of the way - the young maiden will typically be seen in a black kimono with white and very light brown tones to accompany the dreary look. She keeps the bottom part of her Kimono looser than usual as to aid in her mobility when it comes to fighting. Now to accompany the midnight kimono, is her long and straight coal colored hair. Her eyes seems to mimic this trend, resulting in a deep grey. As if it were to get any more depressing, her porcelain skin only contrasts all of these black and grey tones. Leaving the girl to almost appear as a sickly being, but its quiet the opposite as she is regularly found somewhere not caged in with 4 walls. Even on her days off, the Kunoichi is found wearing deeper, and darker tones of any and every color. Burgundy wut seeming to be her second favorite color to place on her body.
She usually keeps a small fannypack-esque bag attatched around her waist, and resting on her back - as to store basic ninja tools, and a small comb. Traditional Japanese sandals will always be found on her rather small feet. Miyako stands at a staggering height of 5'5", and weighing in at a hefty 120 pounds.
In life.... Miyako seems to wear a constant unenthusiastic look, her blank stare can be taken for someone trying to constantly understand the world around her. But in reality, she finds herself to be bored by everything around her. Friendships are far and few in between for the girl, she isn't opposed to spending time with someone, but Miyako prefers her time to be spent alone. She is never one to go out of her way to be hostile, until negative energy is presented to her from another being. She seems to follow the 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you', way of life. Miyako is very tight lipped with her relationships, and acquaintances, seeming to always have few words for any conversation. Outside of missions, or battles - she doesn't trust very easily. Obviously more at ease with those she has worked alongside and views them at some kind of worth in her life. she's goth basically
In war.... Coming down to a mission, she seems to carry the same type of stern attitude into the battle field as she has at home. Though it is noticeable she becomes more headstrong when it comes to being in a squad, and is more talkative. As she believes that team work is very important, and believes trust and communication is a key factor in carrying a mission out successfully. She has been known to butt heads with her insistent opinions on how to effectively carry out a mission. Though, if she truly trusts the squad leader - she is more submissive and will give little input. Miyako believes no one should be left behind, and will do her best to ensure her comrades see a mission through to the end.
In love.... Miyako has no interest in any kind of romantic relations with anyone for the time being. Growing up with a single mother that explains everything, whom she never saw receive love from another. The idea of it had never been implanted, and to her - she can bear a fruitful life alone just as her mother has. Of course, meandering through life she has seen the joy others seem to have of being in 'love', and enjoying the time and company of another. Miyako believes that there could possibly be someone out there to help her explore this avenue, and understand it more - but for now, she is not actively looking or concerned for that matter. blue balls for the shinobi world -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】
Born on the outskirts of Iwa in the still of a late winter night, Miyako made her debut appearance into the world. The girl would live her whole life without ever knowing even the name of her father he went to the store. Let alone what he looked like. She could only pick apart pieces of what he may look like, comparing herself against her mother - but her mothers genes seemed to of dominated her exterior; so it was rather hard to ever come up with an idea of what he may look like. Aside from this small piece of, what some could consider, a minor inconvenience in ones life, Miyako grew up a rather normal life inside of Iwa. Her mother worked hard to support the two, they lived barely scraping by all the time. Miyako would constantly be left home alone no daddeh figure? should be shunned by the empire!, whilst her mother was out trying to make ends meat for the two of them. It wouldn't be till Miyako was only a few years older around the age of 10 that she would begin to realize the rigorous work schedule of her mother - and decide to find a way to work as soon as possible.
Being left to her own devices at home regularly, she picked up reading, and practicing Taijutsu as a way to keep herself busy in the passing hours waiting for her mothers return. She became very self sufficient as a child, learning to cook, mend broken items, and more at a young age. She wouldn't begin to start leaving the house during the day till she was a bit older, around 10/11, then she would begin to quietly sit on the side lines and watch the world's passerby's. Trying to understand proper communication to make friends, and not live her life as a complete shut in. Reading about all this in books only made her want to venture more, but as she was placed into the academy, and had minor altercations with other girls. Miyako decided her life was best lived in solitude, away from friendships - only acquaintances. Only truly enjoying the company of her mother.
Within the Academy, it was shown her Chakra Nature was Futon - but during her years there she also seemed to have a small affinity for Doton. Though she did not focus on it, and a large portion of the time only relies on Futon as her Chakra Nature. She excelled in class, and all of the written work, and tests - as well as slightly sticking out as an above average Kunoichi with a promising future. How easily she floated by in the Academy was noticed by her classmates, and with her silent personality - many assumed she thought of herself greater than the others. When really she just enjoyed keeping her mouth shut, and learning what she could from the teacher, and future Sensei. It was also discovered in the Academy, that the real reason Miyako was able to maintain a perfect score in her written work, was that she had a photographic memory enf here's the snowflake factor. Only having to look at something once, even if for a few moments - and she could recall it again perfectly merely minutes, hours, and days later. She seemed to have the memory of an elephant, and could easily recite someone's past comments back to them verbatim. With this semi-incredible gift, as soon as she graduated the Academy, and passed her Chunin and Jonin exams, she was labeled as a Tokubetsu Jonin. Usually sent on missions that required the teams to pay great attention to detail, and because she could easily retrieve anything from her memory, she was seen as a viable and useful figure. A "Walking Library", as some would refer to her as. sounds more like a form of asperger's than just super memory. usually those with such memory cant recite literally everything like that. would explain her behaviors though.
It was also at the start of the academy, that Miyako would practice and perfect the art of Traditional Fan Dancing the evolution of fan girling. Performing for the wealthier in the community, and earning a living off of that. Her earnings did not go to her, but her mother - as to help ease her out of the strenuous hours of work she had been living with for years. With the practice and perfection of these dances, and techniques and the discovery of her Futon Chakra Nature - Miyako realized she could combine the two and excel on the battlefield with the use of her fans, and fluid movements.
As Miyako made a name for herself in the Empire of Stone, she soon joined the Military, and was immediately placed into the Intelligence Division. Though she proved worthy on the battlefield. It was her mind, and memory they really sought after. Miyako was seen as someone who would be able to gather, and retain new data for the up and coming mission that would soon hit the nations as they joined forces.

【Appearance/Wardrobe】
Koko is a woman with a wiry frame, her limbs seeming almost too long for her torso yummy legs. Because of her wiry frame, she tends to slink around instead of walking and has an agile casual way of moving that appears languid and borderline graceless this is giving me hilarious mental images for some reason. Her unruly red hair has been chopped short with bangs hanging across her forehead, as she tends to hold functionality over beautifully long lustrous hair. Her sharpish eyes are a light green and tend to narrow in thought often; under her eyes, her nose is straight and almost beaklike in the way it sticks out further than the rest of her features. Koko’s mouth is often curled into a smirk or smile, and her resting face seems peaceful and happy rather than bitchy.
For clothes, Koko tends to favor orangee and black KURO DESU NE. Her typical shinobi outfit is a black halter top that curves around her neck and shows the lithe muscles of her shoulders and back. The halter top is tucked into her orange pants which are loose around her hips, but not loose enough to fall off, to give her range of movement without uncomfortably stretchy thin pants. Her orange pants have triangular holes in the sides which show the bandages wrapped around her upper thighs, bandaged in a way to almost look like fish scales. Her wrists are wrapped in black bandages and her feet encased in open-heel orange sandals. When leisurely walking or traveling, Koko likes to wear her straw hat over her unmanageable hair, but it quick to set it on the ground during a serious fight lest it get in the way. Even though Koko is not the type to dwell on aesthetics, she likes to keep her fingernails and toenails painted black because she finds the activity relaxing. and now she's back to generic girl status
Iyokan Koko is a laidback woman of leisure. She’s neither known for an explosive temper nor a thin patience. Instead, she adopts an affable stance towards everyone and anything, expressing false empathy with most she meets with. Unlike those unfortunate child prodigies, Koko is not socially inept or awkward and can read situations rather easily and respond appropriately. Her niceties are mostly false as Koko finds it rather hard to grow attached to other people. She’s not particularly misanthropic – she finds people very fascinating, really, and would have specialized in interrogation if she had any skill whatsoever for psychology – but she tends to have a pragmatic, big picture outlook on life that leads to her seeing people as mere names on a page than living breathing things. This isn’t to say that she is entirely sociopathic and incapable of growing bonds and roots we could use a sociopath actually, keep her nasty. but they also tend to stagnate in progress so this may be a better call. The few that Koko becomes close to, usually through long periods of socialization, she can become quite possessive over and doesn’t like to share her objects of affections with anyone else.
Beyond her laidback nature, Koko has gained a reputation for being a sadist. Koko herself doesn’t see herself as a sadist, but instead acknowledges the fact that her sadist reputation probably stems from the fact that she likes to play. Koko enjoys the small things of a fight – likes to see the burning fire in her foes, the way they pick themselves up after everything she throws at them, and generally likes to poke and prod the bear to see how it reacts. Because of that, Koko tends to string enemies along rather than outright end it out of a fascination to see how they would react to whatever she throws at them. delicious
Nothing really seems to bother Koko, and if it does, it’s hidden behind a false smile or smirk. Insults and digging into wounds tend to roll over her like water off a duck’s back. She doesn’t rise to bait and, even in fights, tends to shower others with compliments and attempts to get to know the other. For her, it isn’t rare for her to suddenly ask her opponent what they’re favorite color is in the middle of a fight. If there is a hair trigger to get a rise out of her, no one has found it yet – she doesn’t even get angry when people insult those she finds herself particularly close to. this is an exciting challenge actually
Iyokan Koko was born to a poor fishing family in a poor fishing village outside of Kirigakure. They definitely were not the poorest of the bunch in that small village, but they weren’t having any five-course meals anytime soon. Koko was the youngest daughter of four, but she wasn’t particularly doted on nor was she treated unfairly. If anything, Koko’s beginnings to life could be described as average for the lower class of the Isles of the Mist.
When Koko was five years old, her father died of a sickness due to the fact that they were too poor for the medicine he needed this rp is a reverse disney with absent/dead dads instead of mums. After his death, unable to support her children, her mother thought it was best for her children if she gave them up to an orphanage in Kirigakure best mum. Hopefully, her mother thought, they would get what they needed there. Some of Koko’s sisters faced years of bitterness from the seeming abandonment, but Koko didn’t really focus on her family life. Instead, Koko focused on her dream of becoming a fabulous shinobi of Kirigakure. Three of her older sisters instead went to work in various civilian jobs, but the second youngest of the five decided to join Koko in becoming a shinobi as she dreamed that the money she earned could bring her family back together. fits pragmatism. she's still a cunt though
In the academy, Koko struggled finding her niche in the shinobi world while her older sister, Koto, excelled in ninjutsu. At first Koko was angry, but after an explosive argument with Koto, Koko decided it was time to cut the bullshit and focus on herself more smart moves. i cant bully you as hard as the other victims here, darn. After that, Koko slowly drifted away from her sisters until they were more acquaintances than family. With a newfound energy to focus, Koko realizes that ninjutsu would never be her strong point – her chakra reserves were too low – so she instead focused on taijutsu and building up her endurance. With taijutsu, however, there ran the risk of meeting enemies that could defeat her without letting her get close. Due to this worry, Koko dabbled in iryo-ninjutsu and medical knowledge until she learned enough about the human body to start utilizing poisons with her taijutsu. Though she knows the mystical palm technique, outside of using it for designing new poisons, Koko can’t use it for much else.
After graduating from the academy, Koko worked her ass off to rise through the ranks. She picked up some ninjutsu jutsu to use in emergencies, but for the most part using jutsu was too taxing on her chakra reserves unless they were lower than C-rank. While a chuunin, Koko picked up the habit of smoking and began training with a kenka kiseru, a fighting pipe. Koko became a Tokubetsu Jōnin when she was sixteen after she gained the moniker Orenji dat japanese Abazure on the field due to her poison usage and bad habit of playing with her enemies.
The last Koko heard of her sisters, they were all living together in some nice apartment in Kirigakure while looking for their long lost mother. Koto is currently a chuunin, having turned down the chance of becoming a tokubetsu jonin as she wanted to become a full jonin rather than be pidgeon-holed as a specialist it says up there she's still a tokusentai. not that it matters.
jesus fuck this is worse than i anticipated. omg kill me
Name
Description
Appearance
Kenka Kiseru
A 45.5 centimeters long smoking pipe that can be used for both smoking purposes and battle. In fights, Koko might switch the tobacco in it to poison in order to puff potent poison smoke into the air around her that slows down enemies' reflexes. In taijutsu, Koko uses the pipe much like a staff would be used.
Senbon, kunai, shuriken, ninja wire, paper bombs, and storage scrolls. She has several sets of projectiles and ninja wire, each with a different poison and then a set that is not poisoned. She has a storage scroll for each set, with the paper bombs being held with the normal set.
The poison is used to slow down the reflexes of an opponent. Koko usually introduces it early on in a fight as it only slowly gets introduced into their system and can take a while to take affect. The poison only works if it is inhaled or injected into the bloodstream. Taking advantage of an opponent's sluggish movements, Koko then tries to overpower her enemy through taijutsu.
Jōryū ni Suiei looks like aqua-blue tobacco in its nonlethal form. When inserted into Koko's pipe, the fire causes it to glow before emitting the poisonous smoke that affects her victims. this poison is alright. i trust it wont be exaggerated
Akai Kurēn Saikuron
This poison is a hallucinogenic and often causes Koko's opponents to see vivid colors and mirages. Sometimes the opponent can see terrifying hallucinations, sometimes they're more innocent and warm. Because she cannot depend on what the hallucinogenic causes her opponent to see, Koko uses it to distract her opponent while she attacks from another angle. The hallucinogenic is fast acting and begins working within two minutes; however, it can wear off from anywhere to fifteen minutes to an hour, depending on the constitution of the opponent. Koko usually uses this poison by coating it on her weapons as it only works when it enters the bloodstream. cute genjutsu replacement, though it seems a bit vague to be all that effective imo. discuss with your opponents how this would go down.
Akai Kurēn Saikuron is a red liquid, with the consistency of milk almost, that is strained from a poisonous orange and red flower.
Doku Mikan no Seppun
Koko's most deadly poison there's always THAT poison.. Doku Mikan no Seppun is able to paralyze opponents in small doses and kill in higher doses. However, the line between kill and paralyzing is very thin as the dosage all matters on constitution, weight, height, and poison resistance which cannot be calculated easily in a fight. As such, it is very easy to overdose an opponent when meaning to paralyze and paralyze when meaning to kill. Due to the high margin of error, Koko mostly uses this poison for assassinations rather than in battle unless as a last resort. On the same vein, it is incredibly difficult to use as it does not stick on a kunai or senbon in enough concentration to paralyze someone. It would only work if multiple kunai or senbon have cut into the skin. i'm not a fan of super paralysis poisons or immediate death ones either. i would argue that a direct hit would be needed from a kunai for it to paralyze, while death poisons are generally just 100% useless as full paralysis ensures wins in most cases. have it be a progressive numbing effect.
Doku Mikan no Seppun is a clear and odorless liquid. It has the slight tangy taste of a tangerine; therefore, it can be detected by taste. Usually, if you are tasting it, it is too late - ingestion is the best way for the poison to take. It is very liquidy and doesn't stick to projectiles well - it is best used hidden in food.
isn't actually an element but its fine to have it be a sort of category Description:
The user molds the chakra in their stomach to become poisonous then uses the chakra to form thin needles. The user then expels the projectiles from their mouth at their enemies. once again i assume its one of the poisons cited, notably the first and second?
For a Poison Character she's actually well balanced. Keep in mind the restrictions I put on the last poison and be reasonable. I'm generally very strict with three things in Naruto: Genjutsu (because most are generic and bad), Seals (way too opened ended) and Poisons as they've been waaaayyyy too strong in the canon and just make fights hella boring without one side looking powergamey. Approved, post the sheet.
I'm launching the IC this weekend. Please have your characters posted by then as we're going to have the events prepared already. If late, you may have to wait until the first series is complete or may have a sloppy entry in an event.
Back to post four times and then disappear? I'm not being sarcastic. Dion and I predicted this the last time and you did /not/ fail to deliver. Fuck, 3 of your posts were filler no one gave a shit about and one post served to paralyze people you were involved with since you didn't bother to respond afterward. This isn't new with you.
And now you show yourself with the same old medic-whimsical crap you've been flinging since forever and get bored with after two weeks. I'm denying you on the same grounds that I've denied Taka in the previous RP, being your complete lack of consistency. And absolutely no one to vouch for you.
I wouldn't be as bad here if your character wasn't just a replica of another you shelved after three or so posts. That young mother trope is lame.
Again --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
you have failed at not making him look gay -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Full Name】 Arata Kaguya 【Nickname/Alias】 Ivory Vajra; Maniac lolwut 【Gender】 Male 【Age】 25 【Age Appearance】 Early Twenties 【Sexuality】 Demisexual, Heteromantic kiss my ass you tumblr shit. considering this either fake-asexual or straight. 【Nation】 Amekagure 【Birthplace】 The New Continent. As far as officials from other nations are concerned, he was born in Kirigakure no Sato. woowee same as yogensha 【Alignment/Affiliation/Organization】 ~~ ah yes the ~~ squad, i should've known 【Clan/Bloodline】 Kaguya 【Rank】 Jounin 【Chakra Nature】 Lightning; Water 【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Arata is a somehow delicate looking young man three too many words to say 'gay', having an overall lean build, average height (174 cm/5'8½"), abnormally pale complexion and fair, feminine looks that can only be described as beautiful rather than handsome when complemented by his long white hair - usually wore in a way that clearly denotes care, with his bangs - that can easily reach his his nose at their longest - fall orderly over his forehead to avoid being bothered by it during fights and tying his hair in a single ponytail in the back and two long bangs in the side of his head - to produce the image of a young man lacking any visible tarnish that could possibly denote having ever faced harshness during his whole life, almost like the pampered child of a rich traditional family... At least in the surface. do you realize this was one big sentence?
If someone truly paid attention to him had not to with this flamboyancy, though, they'd quickly notice that truth hidden under his loose clothes is clearly different from the overall fragile feel that he gives, as in despite seemingly delicate appearance, he not only has quite muscular physique but also seems to be heavily marred with scars, mostly results of his heavy training and past fights as a Shinobi. doesn't his kg give him some weird kind of healing to minor wounds at least? oh well -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 Being abandoned and thrown in a far away continent before he even had his fifth birthday and forced to live amongst people who only kept him for his potential as a tool to earn more profit, it isn't surprising that Arata grew up to be an highly individualist person with a tendency of automatically distrusting those around him e effectively trying to avoid getting close to people, being well known amongst his associates for having the kind of attitude that automatically makes one think that the whole world and everyone inside it displeases him, not ony openly ignoring people but - when finally forced to reply due to the sheer insistence of the other party - talking informally to everyone independently of their position and being purposefully blunt or cold in his replies and statements for the sole purpose of keeping others away from himself. another huge-ass sentence. also loner boi that wears trench coats right
He obviously does not trust others easily and seems to be uncomfortable with the idea of becoming closer to other people, supposedly valuing his own safety above anything else and only doing things either for the sake fulfilling his own needs, finishing the mission assigned to him or following his urge to become a stronger Shinobi independently of the price, being an individula that will seemingly not even think twice before sacrificing others for the sake of either the successful completion of his mission or a chance of becoming stronger. edgy
With that being said, it isn't wrong to say that - in despite spite of the his usual attitude - Arata is ultimately away softer in the inside than his sister, not only having a soft spot for children and loathing the idea of hurting those who can't defend themselves but - In complete opposition to his ancestors - effectively hating killing and trying to avoid it as much as possible, though that's hardly that easy when considering his position, and legitmaly agonizing over the difficult decisions he had to take in the course of his missions to avoid failure in despite of how he doesn't falter even for a second before taking them. what a baby
In the end, even if he keeps a tough facade and hides his emotions even from himself, Arata actually does care you blew it for the people around him but is away too scared of effectively recognizing that and forming bonds to openly show it, fearing abandonment to the point that even his overwhelming need for strength is a direct result of him wanting so much to keep himself from being left behind that he effectively strives to be strong enough for others to feel the need to depend on him.still no full-edge char darnit -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 Like his sister, Arata was born in a faraway land, far from the everlasting conflict that cursed the Shinobi since the times when chakra was first used for the purpose of killing - a beautiful place devoid of any chaos where they could be truly free... Or so he was told by his sister, for on the opposite of Yogensha he was never even given the chance of creating any fond memories of his homeland. hahahahahaha
On the opposite of his older sister, he was merely two when his parents mercilessly decided to send eastwards with a clan of traveling merchants with no one but his slightly older sibling to call family, passed off by his parents like they were.. dead weight - something that his sister came to describe as natural - like a bird throwing their young out the nest, this was their parents way of saying 'grow up'. thank you period On the opposite of his sister, that immediately reacted with all her forces from the first moment as they where forced into an unwanted journey to Sunagakure, the young and innocent took away longer to understand the situation and never quite understood or forgave their decisions: It didn't matter for him that it was the only way they knew or anything of the genre, the only thing that mattered was that they abandoned him before he even knew their face, and he could never bring himself to understand that.
Even the journey would become naught but an immense blur in Arata's memory with time, as he could barely recall anything from its start and only vaguely remembered something about how... Weird Sunagakure was when compared to what he previously knew. From the very start, it didn't even matter for him where they were going to or what they were going to to: He was more than satisfied with just following his sister's decisions and follow her through her wanderings, trekking through the desert together to find and explore new lands. It was only natural for him to do so since he never even had the opportunity to grow up sheltered for enough time to develop his own drivings on the opposite of his sister. In the end, his sole certainty was that as long as he followed the only family he ever knew.
Ultimately, he was far from being right: During their travels the two Kaguya siblings would be ultimately picked up by Kirigakure operatives who had been sent out to collect the two presumed orphans. It was originally a simple retrieval mission to take two kids off the road and into an orphanage but quickly became more when it was evident the two came from the dark continent: from then onwards, they'd stopped being possible assets and effectively became actual tools that could lead to a whole new era of profit. $$$$
It took years mind readers, anyone? nope? guess it's years of labour then of investigation for them to realize that a kid as young as him couldn't possibly know anything important about the new continent, and everything they gave in return for these years of interrogation was the privilege to be kept as a pet hidden under the guise of special privileges, treated as something of a guest of honour at times, an exotic animal to be shown off at other times and ultimately naught but slaves to the will of some powerful official.
It was only after his sister entered service for the Chūsei Kokoro Hoji-sha and Arata started to demonstrate not only an abnormal potential in both Ninjutsu and Taijutsu but also a high affinity to his clan's kekkei genkai that the siblings effectively started to hold enough influence to keep a stable position without having to depend on anyone to keep themselves alive and well and even that could do nothing but reinforce Arata's singular belief that only by becoming more powerful than anyone else he could hope to be free and happy like his sister once described in their childhood, driving him into searching strength in any way possible even at the cost of his own life and ultimately leading him to his actual situation as one of the members of the expedition to the new continent. so when did he go to ame --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【Special Traits】 Kaguya Physiology - As a Kaguya, Arata not only has bones that are absurdly more durable than normal person's - to the point of being considered as nigh invulnerable - but also seen regenerate in a superhuman speed unless you have an ability for it you're not getting a /actual/ heal on top of top tier taijutsu and elemental ninjutsu, being mostly unmatched when it comes to survivability alone. He also seems to be highly resistant to poisons and drugs as a whole due to his unique constitution. random resistance but w/e
Abnormal Physical Might - Being being mostly focused on taijutsu and wholeheartedly dedicated to improving himself, Arata naturally has a boderline superhuman physical might in despite of his deceptively lean appearance. so much for relying of unique taijutsu and physiology
Capable Swordsman - While he isn't truly as specialized at wielding a sword as most believe, Arata is still classified as an moderately skilled swordsman due to his insistence in training swordsmanship as a way to keeps his kekkei genkai as a secret.
Taijutsu Expert - While not comparable to more illustrious members of his lineage in the past, Arata is undoubtedly a qualified taijutsu user in his own right.
Lightning Release Expert - In despite of living in the Hidden Mist Village and being capable of using Water Release, Arata's obsession with becoming stronger directly made him opt to concentrate his studies on Lightning Release - a nature much more directly suited for combat in his personal opinion.
【Afflictions/Nerfs】 N/A -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Equipment/Weapons/Items】 Name of Weapon or Item: Kokuto Description: A black colored ninjato easily recognizable for the specially tempered blade that has a darkened, non-reflective surface and is normally heavily coated in poison.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Kekkei Genkai】 Name of Kekkei Genkai: Shikotsumyaku Clan: Kaguya Description: As a heir of the Kaguya clan, Arata not only inherited the Shikotsumyaku Kekkei Genkai but also demonstrated being what one would call as a genius in using his clan's Kekkei Genkai, being extremely talented when it comes instinctively using their techniques but lacking the instruction needed to completely master his clan's style - to the point where even now, when he's already considered a full-fledged shinobi, he is still unable to use all of his clans dances efficiently, having "merely" mastered the first three dances inherited from his ancestors and started to develop his own variations of those techniques.
Name of Technique: Blooming Seedlings Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: B Range: Varied/All ranges Nature Type: N/A Description: A technique similar in nature to the dance of seedling fern, this unique application of bone release revolves around planting bone fragments all around the field while moving around, leaving them behind as traps that "bloom" into fully grown bone spikes similar to those manifested by the dance of the seedling fern either when someone steps over them or triggered by a lightning release jutsu. Can be used as a conductor for lightning release techniques.
Name of Technique: Certain Kill: Descent of the Heavenly Tribulation Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: B-S (Depending on the quantity of pillars) i hate these forks. it's S rank then. which means tone down its potential. you can usually regulate the power of your jutsu, which would make most jutsu eligible for this weird fork. A rank max. Range: Medium Nature Type: Lightning Description: A conjunct technique used exclusively with the aid of the Blooming Seedlings Technique, this technique consists in - after triggering either 4, 12, or 24 spikes originated from the Blooming Seedlings technique - using the lightning release chakra contained inside Arata's bone spikes to create an effect similar to that of a small scale version of Limelight: A lightning dome that mercilessly targets anyone unlucky enough to be inside the affected area. The power of this technique is directly proportional to the number of spikes utilized, with one being generated by a 24 spikes - the maximum number, considerably above Arata's current limit of 12 - being comparable to the likes of Kirin or Limelight in sheer intensity (though targeting a considerably smaller area). i guess that's fine. Kirin is actually somewhat precise but then leaves a big kaboom. just a big bolt of lightning befalling one specific spot.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- alright char, watch the punctuation jesus christ. unsure how he is from ame if he's from kiri but also new continent in actuality. jutsu are okay but never sure given how powergamey shikotsumiyaku is in physical combat. as in, people quote the wiki saying its the strongest taijutsu form or whatever. it's not. it was in pre-shippuden yes. but shippuden changed the whole game. keep that in mind. also you've stretched your arsenal to elements, some pretty useful. that also balances it out.
and no healing for u except for mild injuries for fluff and to fix your gore KG. approved
Character Theme -Kasabian Fire doesnt work --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【Alignment/Affiliation/Organization】 Isles of Mist
【Clan/Bloodline】 N/A
【Rank】 Low Jonin
【Chakra Nature】 N/A
【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Miyu wears white robes that easily covers her body, and can extend a hood to completely cover her if need be. Throughout the clothing, Miyu has hidden pockets upon hidden pockets, where her numerous items are hidden.
Miyu is rather short, and has her hair in a ponytail near constantly. Her shoes are worn, as is the robes she wears. There is a patchwork through both. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 Never one to rush, and always full of confidence, Miyu has the air of someone who can't fail around her. She might rarely jump to any conclusion, but when she arrives, she does so with such resolve that it tends to make her seem like she knows what she's doing. Miyu's secret is to always work smarter, and not harder. She doesn't give up, but spends alot of time in self reflection.
She wants her confidence to be contagious, and tries to uplift people around her. If someone expresses a dream, Miyu treats it as a fact. If someone is failing at something, Miyu will tell them to keep going.
Miyu, however, isn't perfect. She tends to become overly focused on a task, and refuses to give up on it. It gets worse if she's ordered to change tracks, because she'll become overly obsessed with whatever she has failed at. The less focused Miyu becomes, the less effective she is as well. She works best like clockwork, sticking to a schedule, and managing things one thing at a time. Don't let her reset either, because she does not know how to relax. hate it when that happens
Miyu also holds on hell of a grudge. She still remembers every single person who has ever told her she couldn't. She makes it a point to screw them over when at all possible, even if they've forgotten about her. lil shit -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are some people who were born adept geniuses at being a ninja. Miyu wasn't one of them. Throughout the academy, she never learned a single jutsu, despite years and years of trying. She had a large amount of chakra, but she could never control it for anything. Her taijutsu was awkward, and to improvised to learn any official technique there either. There were other people like her. Talentless runts who through sheer force of will became monsters. Miyu wasn't one of them, either. She cried, alot, and didn't feel like she was progressing. She was kicked out of the academy in the end. cyberbully 2: wannabe sageroo. also nardo version
Still, Miyu came from the poorer parts of the Isle of Mist, and being a successful ninja was the best way to drag her family into the main city. Everything about Miyu rested on becoming a ninja. Coming from the slums, however, did have some benefits. Such as the fact officially, Miyu didn't exist. She forged documents 'thats illegal you know', and managed to land in with a team, who assumed she came from a different academy. She was afraid out of her mind it would go poorly, and read everything on being a shinobi she could. Miyu had to learn, and she had to learn quickly. She was weaker than any of her teammates, and with the chunnin exams, no one expected her to end up doing well.
Miyu fought dirty, and began to use items specifically to counter others not all that believable but ill let this pass. She ended up with first place. She couldn't win a single fight normally, but one by one she managed to trick her opponents, and exploited their weaknesses. A dojutsu user hated the light. A Earth Spear user reacted badly to poison. A speed demon fell to a mine. A medic nin was outlasted. The fact she'd manage to find their files before hand helped as well.
People above her were angry. There were well placed bets in the chunnin exams, and she was ruining the betting business for all of them. They demanded she not be given the rank of chunnin. So she wasn't that year. Quietly her sensei convinced the Mizukage to give her the rank during a lull period. more bribing i see ........
Still, people haven't forgotten Miyu, and the fact she's succeeded despite having no talent, and coming from the slums have made those feelings worse. She was chosen as one to explore the new continent mainly to get her out of the Isles. she'll be hokage soon i know it
Miyu's secretly a bit afraid of the mission, but is coming at it with the same diligence she's always shown. Grabbing as many books as she could, Miyu has studied hard trying to find something other than items she could use. One thing that has surprised her has been as she has quietly meditated, she has become aware of another energy. She hasn't learned much about it yet, and it has been dangerous so far to learn more, but Miyu's begun to learn the art of the sage. talentless. goes against all odds with creative measures. wants to be a sage. reminds me of someone .....
must be sakura, 'cause she talentless and a woman!!!!!!!!!
【Special Traits】 Talented physically. Incredibly intelligent. Fast. Extreme Stamina. Beginning to access Senjutsu. (Has one use for it) u'll need more than that small para of history for any sort of meaningful progress. admittedly, less exposition is fine. but sage mode is pretty unique. ill let one slide for now.
Name of Weapon or Item: Ruyi Bang Description: A staff of hardened wood durable enough to survive being cut with a chakra enhanced blade. It is Miyu's primary weapon. Appearance: A golden tipped staff made of a special type of mahogany.
Name of Weapon or Item: Stamina pills Description: Pills that quickly recover the user's stamina within a few minutes, allowing them to keep going. Requires alot of food however. That, or the user becomes starving instantly. you already have godly stamina. guess its useful for teammates. quantity depends on EM's verdict. Appearance: They appear as simple green pills in a bottle.
Name of Weapon or Item: Baccus's wine Description: A wine in a bottle that sends the partaker into a blind rage. The user doesn't feel pain during this time, and their strength is doubled. However, they can't think clearly, and calming them down is a problem. duration is important here. up to EM as well, or your agreement with the opponent. Appearance: They appear as simple green pills in a bottle.
Name of Weapon or Item: Dried Angel's tears Description: Pills that when consumed causes yang chakra in a person to overload and for the body to start healing itself at an enhanced rate. However, they prevent a user from actually molding chakra for a significant time, and too much physical strain will hurt the body. Still, they can patch up most minor injuries in a matter of a minute, and major injuries in a few days. As long as they are working, the consumer glows blue as the chakra is visible. cute. includes sage art in chakra usage. gotta think long term. i like this pill though. Appearance: They appear as simple blue pills in a bottle.
Name of Weapon or Item:Standing World Mushroom Description: A mushroom filled to the brim with stimulants. When taken, it heightens the users perception, boosting their adrenaline. It lasts half an hour, then gives the user a headache. During this time, the user has the perception skills comparable to the sharingan, minus the chakra sight. so a free sharingan without copying and chakra sight. if you /ever/ get sage mode, this won't stack with the super tier reflexes and sensory. otherwise it's ok Appearance: A mushroom the color of coffee.
Name of Weapon or Item: 1 Up Mushroom Description: A fungus the user ties to their body, Miyu keeps it in her hair like a flower. It feeds off the users chakra, storing up a large amount. When eaten, it restores the users chakra using the weeks worth stored, much like the Strength of a Hundred Seal, and has a healing factor on the whole body. Miyu only has one at a time, as they take weeks to grow. It is Miyu's ultimate item. im thinking long term with your character rather than the now. right now this if actually fine. i fear more when you start getting sage mode. even if one time use, it may not be that relevant if skips between arcs are longer than the cultivation time. it's fine for now, though. Appearance: It is a green mushroom.
Name of Weapon or Item: Basilisk Fangs Description: A grenade filled with a poison smoke bomb. When it goes off, a sudden purple cloud forms, that is filled with poison that targets the lungs. She carries antidotes for this as well. what does the poison do. quantities. all that junk. you of all people know how much i hate balancing poison. Appearance: Just a grenade. Antidote is red pills.
Name of Weapon or Item: Basilisk Stare Description: It appears from a distance to be an explosive tag, but when detonated, a magnesium flare goes off. It is blinding to most, but to those with a dojutsu, its damage is much more severe. flash bomb, ok Appearance: It looks like an explosive tag, but has different writing
Name of Weapon or Item: Cluster Explosive Tag Description: An tag that summons a cluster of 20 explosive tags that all go off at once. hi my name is tobirama i will be hashirama sage today. cant spawn more cluster explosives with this effect as to avoid that crazy jutsu. still seems a bit strong as twenty tags is quite the ridiculous attack but it's w/e. Appearance: Looks like an explosive tag with more writing.
Name of Weapon or Item: Landmine Description: Just a proxity landmine slightly more powerful than an explosive tag, filled with shrapnel that Miyu can attach to surfaces. It goes off if any large object moves within 10 feet of it. sure, if you have good spatial definition. Appearance: Looks like a circular disk.
Name of Technique: Senjutsu: Restoration Type of Jutsu: Senjutsu Rank: B Range: Self Nature Type: N/A Description: The only jutsu Miyu has ever had any luck in. When she is injured, Miyu is able to draw natural energy into herself just long enough to start to heal from minor to moderate wounds. She has to be absolutely still for this to take effect, so often she'll play possum in the middle of a battlefield, only to come back to full energy moments later. that's three mediums to heal yourself (and not others unless you lend a pill). again this isn't a big deal now. i am more concerned with how an imperfect, and even a perfect, sage would operate with this much recovery and stamina. for now its fine, but expect some limitations when you actually got swole.
the concept is interesting and leaves room for development. this is good. there may need to be changes as she actually gets strong as her current set-up is mostly designed for a weaker character. usually that'd be fine, but when sage mode is added to the mix, even on a weak as shit character, it's a whole different ball game. you know this.
Character is approved, i dont expect you to be a shitter. feel free to post in the cs bin.
Character Theme -You Can’t Fight Lightning music is banned in my country. try again --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
edo tensei is banned, again
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Full Name】 Uragiri Kinzo Sakana 2 【Nickname/Alias】 N/A 【Gender】 Male 【Age】 18 more fucking kids 【Age Appearance】 Early 20’s 【Sexuality】 Heterosexual insert unfunny homosexuality reference 【Nation】 Rajin Dynasties 【Birthplace】 Rajin Dynasties 【Alignment/Affiliation/Organization】 Rajin Dynasties Calimari Tribe 【Clan/Bloodline】 Uragiri Clan 【Rank】 Chunnin 【Chakra Nature】 Primary: Lightning 【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Kinzo wears the regular garb of a Kaminari Tribe Shinobi, preferring to wear light clothing beneath his flak jacket. He has never particularly cared for what colors his clothing is, though he tends to stay within the blue spectrum as they are readily available. He leaves his hands completely bare, sacrificing a potential boost to grip strength and some protection in favor of preventing a potential decrease in handseal speed.
Like other members of his clan he does his best to make sure he is always presentable, keeping his hair washed and well groomed, ensuring that his clothes are in good shape, etc. While he has strayed from many aspects of the clan he still takes pride in the state of his appearance.
The most obvious characteristic is yet another that he shares with his clan, that being his black eyes. Unlike most differently colored eyes his are not due to a doujutsu, just a simple quirk of genetics. this just in, scientists have found a way to genetically transmit edge. more at 11
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 An Obedient Soldier thank you savato for this theme Kinzo believes strongly in the chain of command and he follows orders as close to the letter as physically possible. If required he would place the success of his mission/completion of his orders above his own survival. gotta respect the ooga booga dynasty
Loyal Comrade He is incredibly loyal to those he fights beside, doing everything he can to ensure their survival. Given that he is primarily a mid to long range combatant he rarely will leap in front of an attack, simply because he is too far to do so, but he will use his range to protect from a distance.
Off Duty Compartmentalization While he is able to follow orders without hesitation when he has downtime he lets himself relax, push all of the things he has to do while on duty to the back of his mind. He is just another bloke, drinking with his comrades, shooting the breeze, etc.
Hard Worker Kinzo has never been a prodigy, but due to dedicating himself to his training he has dragged himself above the averageness that plagues his clan. It was never his intent to become more than bland summation of his character right there, he just enjoyed training. It felt good to watch his abilities improve.
Nice but Regular Far from a fly on the wall, Kinzo does fall short of being the life of the party. He is nice enough, but he isn’t super charming or lively. It’s nice to have him around, but he isn’t the first person you’d ask to a party and certainly wouldn’t throw one himself. norman mcaverage basically
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 For a good chunk of his life, Kinzo was just another member of the Uragiri clan. Sure he stood out a little because he was stronger than average due to the additional time spent training, but overall he was just another bland member of a bland clan. He joined the ranks of the shinobi serving the Kaminari Tribe at a typical age. After joining his first squad he continued to just be an Uragiri.
It wasn’t until he had attained the rank of Chunnin that he began to separate away from his clan. Even then it wasn’t an immediate or quick transition. For the first year of being Chunnin things progressed as normal. One day however he was placed on a squad lead by the current chief’s heir as well as a couple of others. It was a routine mission and everything went according to plan. They accomplished their goal and were beginning the trek back. That is when things headed south rapidly.
They had only made it a quarter of the way back when they were ambushed by a group of ninja from one of the other tribes. The formation Kinzo’s squad had been traveling in had him positioned in the back and a distance away from the other three, they were close range specialists while he excelled at mid to long range. His squad was doing an admirable job at defending themselves for the first portion of the fight. However they were outnumbered and steadily were getting pushed back. With the enemy shinobi grouping up, they presented a perfect target for Kinzo. Using his Lightning Violent Rat Quake he quickly helped turned the tide of the fight back in his squads favor. Each disk hit its intended target, some managing to outright kill while those that weren’t fatal still managed to disoritent the combatants enough for his team to land killing blows. mr mvp vs the generic evil shinobi duders!!!!
The rest of the journey progressed without issue and upon the squad leader, the heir, delivering his report Kinzo received a summon to speak with the Kaminari himself. When he appeared before the tribal leader he was not the only one there, as one of the other members of his squad was present. They both were informed that they would be receiving the knowledge of how to use Black Lightning for their service to the tribe. they need a whole council to learn this fluff shit holy crap no wonder they lost the war
Receiving the Black Lightning signified the start of Kinzo branching away from the rest of his clan ungrateful shit. When the Kaminari Tribe as a whole had learned about him acquiring the Black Lightning technique they began to integrate him more. He began taking on more missions against the other tribes directly, supporting his comrades. As he spent time with them he pulled away from the Unagiri’s belief system and adopted a belief in the Rajin. While he was regarded as a bit strange among his clan, they didn’t ignore him or look down on him. He was just different.
Two years have passed since then, and in that time things have remained relatively the same. Kinzo, along with a few other members of the tribe, have been sent to Amegakure though the exact reason why was not fully explained. probably to discuss bean trade --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name of Technique: Black Lightning Type of Jutsu: Supplementary/offensive Rank: D Range: All Ranges Nature Type: Lightning Description: This technique is used exclusively by the members of the Kaminari Tribe. The knowledge of how to perform it is given to those who have done a great service to the tribe. While the technique is completely cosmetic in nature, simply making it so the user capable of changing the color of their lightning from blue to black, its purpose is to be used as a type of badge of edge
Name of Technique: Lightning Release- Perpetual Black Lightning Strikes Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: A Range: Mid to Long Nature Type: Lightning Description: After the user completes the handseals black lightning bolts begin striking the designated area repeatedly. Besides choosing the general area of the strikes the user has no control over the lightning, which means it is dangerous to friend and foe alike if they are in the area. The technique is restricted to a 25m diameter circle. This technique is chakra intensive, if Kinzo plans on continuing to fight he can only use it once in a battle. Additionally concentration is required to keep the jutsu going, so it can be ended prematurely if he is forced to lose focus. so basically some danger zone. hmmm, bit weird for an A rank because of its random nature. not denied or anything but chances are you opponent will just /always/ dodge or stay away.
Name of Technique: Lightning Release- Black Current Kunai/Shuriken Type of Jutsu: Supplementary Rank: C Range: Mid to Long Nature Type: Lightning Description: By channeling his chakra into a kunai or shuriken he is able to coat them in a layer of Black Lightning. This acts as a regular Lightning chakra enhanced weapon would, increasing the piercing effect of the associated weapon and causing numbness where they hit. The numbness lasts briefly if the weapon only grazes the target or pierces through them, however if the weapon is embedded into the target the numbness will last until it is removed and for a short time after depending on how long it was lodged inside of them.
literally nothing wrong here. if you want to tweak a few things, such as the A rank to make it a bit more consistent, go ahead. char is approved, just run it by me in PM's if you want to change something.

Yūhi is not quite the archetypical librarian and custodian of literature that one would expect, possessing the knowledge and the strict adherence to logic, but with none of the desire to be sequestered away from people. While he is no social butterfly, Yūhi loves to interact with people and educate them on topics that he possesses vast amounts of knowledge on. Yūhi firmly believes in Kinjiro's philosophy of "secrets kept are weapons wasted", and applies this philosophy to most of the esoteric knowledge that he has had the fortune to come across in his time working with Kinjiro.
Yūhi is driven most, perhaps, by a burning desire to know everything hahahaha birthplace known now, he's the dwarf in the flask. When idle, his thoughts are consumed by the remainder of knowledge that he is yet to obtain, and thoughts of what he could do with knowledge that he does obtain. Thus, contrary to the majority of his kinsmen, Yūhi has a strong desire to travel the world to both obtain new knowledge and share his old knowledge, that people might elevate themselves to his level and beyond with a philosopher stone. Yūhi's passion for knowledge can burn cold, however, when individuals show either no desire to learn or no appreciation for the knowledge he has to offer - such individuals are beyond his help, he reasons, and often death is the easiest reprieve from the burden of their existence. oh wow he got edgy pretty quick
As a quasi-modo, Yūhi values the individual lives of mortals markedly less that most people do. While he has not lived for so long that he has forgotten what it is to have the threat of mortality looming over one's shoulder, he has lived for long enough that he has ceased caring about what he views as petty trifles. Yūhi, even when in his element of sharing knowledge, can come across as cold and sarcastic. He may seem unfeeling or unsympathetic, bordering on completely lacking empathy, but reasons to himself that logic and knowledge are far kinder masters to live under and expects other to obey the rules that he does. Fortunately, many who do not share in his mindset who are particularly vocal about it do not have the privilege of having transcended mortality as he has and are relatively easy to dispatch should disagreements turn to blows. Yūhi has served in an advisory position for a great deal of his extended life, and his passion for sharing knowledge gives him somewhat of a soft spot for those that seek his guidance and listen to him, even if that soft spot is coated in barbs. Yūhi can come across easily as being irreverent and cold, detached from his humanity, but he does harbour a genuine desire to both help people learn and help them advance - even if those desires are not put to use in ways that are typically construed as being positive. still unsure on such longevity but sure personality is fitting
Yūhi has an average chakra pool, but incredibly high chakra control (to the point of wasting no chakra when he uses abilities he is practiced with). ok good control
Yūhi is a master calligraphist, and has studied the various arts for many years. He is, accordingly, extremely adept at forgeries and all things related to writing.
Yūhi is well-versed in an incredible amount of literature, being the co-ordinator of Jikangai, Kinjiro’s personal library and research collection.
Yūhi is biologically immortal, having received Jikangai, Kinjiro’s “Gift of Immortality”. He is immune to all diseases, bacterial and viral infections, and poisons. He cannot die of old age. while i'm iffy on the immortality it's a downright no for these. resistance? sure. immunity? my friend, you're going to suffer from these no matter what you write here.
The Jikangai clan's origins begin with the matriarch and eternal leader of the clan, Yata, who was born into a wealthy family in a time where chakra was yet to grace the land. Yata's early history is unknown to anyone but herself, but there are a few established facts that the Jikangai are privy to: Yata was among the first to receive the gift of chakra i assume you mean she's of the generation of people that received chakra after the whole Kaguya arc and not some sort of special closed beta benefactor snowflake, yeah?, and in her blood were the secrets to the first sealing techniques. Yata became the first to utilise the nature of the seal to manipulate chakra in ways that could not be achieved within the body, and her rise to power was as swift as it was lethal doubtful with the Hagoromo and Hamura basically making the first super seal to create the moon, but i think I get what you mean. Yata later discovered that her sealing techniques were potent enough to affect the flow of time within small areas i'll let this be 'story' facts rather than hard facts, and developed this power over many years alone. At some point, Yata gave birth to her first child, Kinjiro, with an unknown father who was on a similar or greater level of power to her, and Kinjiro was born with all of Yata's power except that over time, though she was the first Jikangai known to possess the trait of being "outside time", likely a result of Yata's experimentation with temporal energies. im not a huge fan of time manipulation. space-time is one thing, time is a big of a shithole to deal with. whatever, we'll see
The earliest members of the Jikangai were not selectively bred or taught like many of the earliest coalitions of clans. Initially, to gain entry to the Jikangai one only needed to be a powerful male (in order to create children from Yata's side to pass her potent sealing power down) or to have an interest in the sealing techniques that Yata offered. Coalitions of like-minded people that were not required to possess specific traits were initially rare, so the earliest Jikangai groupings were not as powerful as many of the other fledgling clans, but as the requirements to join were so simple, many chose to partake of the power that Yata offered. War was common in the early days as people discovered the limitations of their newfound power, but the Jikangai chose to weave seals within their architecture that offered them highly fortified and defensive positions through which to avoid battle. The legendary safety of their strongholds resulted in those tired of war defecting to join the Jikangai, and after a few short decades the Jikangai had members of almost every discipline that presently existed and the means to research many more.
When Yata's first child, Kinjiro, turned thirty two she achieved the secrets of immortality and shared these with her mother, causing the pair to become biologically immortal for a time. This secret gave the matriarch of the Jikangai clan enough time to perfect the seals that would render her truly immortal and cement her eternal reign over the Jikangai i'm pretty sure someone like the Legendary Yamori would have hunted at least a few of them benefactors of this power. there's no way kiri didn't just try to take this power. It was also around this time that Kinjiro disappeared from the annals of the Jikangai, taking with her several of the more medically minded individuals of the time with her, and the clan turned from essentially worshipping its most powerful members (those who had most of Yata's blood) to a more expansion-oriented people, using their collective knowledge and sealing prowess to become conquerors. The seal-infused architecture typical of the early Jikangai strongholds became as much a weapon of war as the rest of the techniques within the Jikangai's grasp and they reconstructed many settlements that they took over with their own to ensure that none that came after them could take the land should they be ousted, and other contingents of the Jikangai could take their place.
The love for complex sealing and structures quickly became the largest downfall of the Jikangai, and their promising expansion years were cut short after only a small number of generations due to infighting within the clan, and their own seal-infused architecture being sabotaged by rival members within the power-oriented clan. Many of the less powerful members died during raids from other sects within the Jikangai, or through the defences upon which they heavily relied being rendered defunct and invading parties having enough of a surprise advantage to turn the tide of battle in their favour. The most powerful of the Jikangai survived and chose to withdraw into the heavily fortified structures that they had relied upon in their infancy, abandoning hopes of conquest for mastery over their sealing techniques under Yata's directive.
Yata, the Immortal Matriarch, directed the clan's efforts towards creating a set of seals of unknown form and function shortly after their withdrawal from their expansive phase, and at some point within the next ten years all instances of the Jikangai on the surface world promptly vanished and retreated into a single underground compound. Much controversy was raised over the reason for the disappearance of any large body of Jikangai, but several missionaries remained in the world to quell these rumours and to recruit promising talents into the folds of the Jikangai. Though it would seem, from looking at the history books, that the Jikangai simply erased themselves from the world, nothing could be farther from the truth.
After withdrawing to their underground compound, the Jikangai returned to their original state of pseudo-ancestor worship. Yata once again became the ultimate public authority within the clan (where before she had largely ruled from the shadows) and once the seals she had ordered the clan create were finished, she ascended beyond the mortal scope of power. With her new seals, Yata's presence was dangerous to all non-Jikangai, and though there was no immediate aftermath, the clan grew worried that her unchecked power would draw attention to their hiding location and chose to construct a sphere in which to entrap their Immortal Matriarch and limit her power. Yata herself designed the seals for her gilded cage, recognising the threat that she posed, and willingly withdrew to lead the clan from within a place that she could do no harm. Unfortunately, Yata's prison limited the contact that she could have with her children, and she receded from the spotlight once more to allow the Jikangai to work towards goals she would entrust to the most powerful members of the clan.
It was at this point that the various sects of the Jikangai begun to develop, each with a focus on a particular aspect of sealing, and the clan begun to evolve into the complex society that it is today. In order to avoid stagnancy, the Jikangai offered the secrets of their seals to the world for knowledge and resources that they may have needed through use of their missionaries, who in return recruited brilliant individuals to join the clan. the fact that they haven't been completely taken by kiri is borderline impossible if people knew of Yata's and Kinjiro's immortality This process has continued since that era, and is still something that occurs semi-regularly within the Jikangai. It is not uncommon for the most powerful members of the Jikangai (those selected to receive Kinjiro's gift of immortality) to directly intervene with mortals of specific interest and prowess to offer them unique gifts in return for their service. Some would liken the Jikangai to would-be Gods, undying beings with a penchant for interfering within the lives of perceived lesser beings for their amusement, but the truth of the matter is far simpler than that: The Jikangai scions are mortal ambition taken to its furthest extreme, with the power to match, and delight in precisely the same game of control that all mortals do, only on a larger scale. yeah there's no way. but, this can also offer plotting potential. you /are/ drawing a big target on them by hyping them up like this, tuuj
Jikangai, Yūhi is among the earliest of the so-called "Immortal Scions" of the Jikangai clan, having been selected to join their ranks at an early age when his extreme talent showed through. Yūhi's early life was fairly common among that of the early Jikangai with the exception that as a male, he was not given the same level of prestige and importance as females as he was unable to guarantee true Jikangai children. This led to Yūhi growing up with an intense drive to prove to his superiors - namely Kinjiro, Yata, and Tensai - that he was able to compete with the champions of the Jikangai. boi raised by feminists turns femboi
Yūhi was born in the fourth generation of the Jikangai clan, and was (alongside Tensai) one of the extremely rare cases of early Jikangai males being born with the full potency of the Chigoku Inkan from a non-Jikangai mother. Yūhi was raised alongside the most promising of the Jikangai at the time, even having been directly tutored by Yata and Kinjiro regarding some of the most complex of the sealing techniques the early clan had devised. Still, as a male, Yūhi was not afforded the same luxuries that the early females of the clan were and rather than seek his fortunes elsewhere, he strove to compete with the best of the clan as his grandfather Tensai had done, and to join him in the ranks of the then-legendary Immortal Scions. the feminist club
Yūhi's particular talents were new to the early Jikangai, being rooted in the discipline of paper and the storage of knowledge outside of conventional mediums. This made him a particularly prized asset, despite the misfortune of his sex, and from the young age of fourteen he'll then stagnate for two hundred years he had already made such advancements in the field of writing and containing powerful seals within paper that he was approached by Yata with an offer. Yata would craft for him an item of exceptional power, something to set him far above his peers, if he swore himself to her for an eternity. At this point in the clan's history, Yata was not as supremely powerful as she later grew to be, but Yūhi was not easily swayed by her promises of power after the treatment he had received for having been male. He kindly refused, aware of the consequences of such an action, but rather than being excommunicated (or worse), Yata offered to create for him an artefact regardless of his affiliations if he could produce a female heir to carry on his potent blood.
This proved an issue for the young Jikangai, who was exclusively interested in the company of other men, but his desire to bring glory to his clan was such that he attempted to provide Yata with a worthy heir. Unfortunately, this did not happen as planned, and Yūhi was left with but one other option - he turned to Kinjiro before her disappearance, and beseeched of her a way to provide Yata with what she desired to bring glory to the clan. Kinjiro offered him a bargain, though to his surprise one far more palatable than the Immortal Matriarch had offered: If Yūhi swore fealty to her and joined her in researching the secrets of Fūinjutsu she would grant him a child and immortality incest is wincest, with no consequences for him leaving after he had worked under her for at least a hundred years. Yūhi accepted, and through Kinjiro's early mastery of genetics lotsa super powers was able to conceive a child with a surrogate mother. The child was female, and Kinjiro confirmed for Yata that the child had the potency of Chigoku Inkan desired in the female line.
Following this, Yūhi was asked to bring a single item of power to Yata with a single wish and she would craft for him an artefact of immense power, as agreed. For many days and nights Yūhi pondered what to ask of Yata, before deciding that he would simply ask for whatever first entered his head as she asked the question. As he came face to face with her, and she asked what he would like crafting, he simply handed her a paperweight and asked her to do with it whatever she felt would most benefit the Jikangai. Yata created from the paperweight a cube holding the secrets to the most fiendishly complex of the Jikangai's seals, able to modify and transmute lesser seals, and work with Yūhi's specialty of paper, and sent him on his way. Immediately afterwards, he relocated to Kinjiro's laboratory to uphold that end of his bargain.
Many years came and went, and Yūhi excelled in his position as lore master and chronicler for Kinjiro's scientific community. After his hundred years of service were over, he decided to stay in the service of Kinjiro, having grown to appreciate her extraordinary talent and love for the Jikangai - and offered the use of his artefact should it prove useful. Useful it proved, as Kinjiro unlocked several of Yata's secrets with it, and sent Yūhi to the surface world in order to act as a personal missionary. He performed his duties faithfully, and returned to the laboratory often--though as time went on, his visits to the surface became increasingly scarce.
As the world grew, it became increasingly clear to the Immortal Scions that their seclusion was no longer necessary. The main body of the Jikangai were restricted to ensuring that Yata's prison remained intact--and were loathe to leave their ancestral grounds regardless, and so did not join them in their exodus--but did sanction it, under the Immortal Matriarch's directive. The most influential of the Scions convened, and surveyed the world to determine where they would build their new home. The discussion went on for many, many years - each pulled in the direction that their long lives of hedonism desired for them - and before they realised it the world had changed yet again. The next time they looked at the world for purpose, it became increasingly clear to them that only one of the sovereign nations would do for them: Kirigakure.
Like them, Kirigakure had a great appetite for advancement and far less of an appetite for mortality. They, like the Scions, considered morality to be a fine servant but a dangerous master. Above all, they valued wealth - which the Scions had accrued an enormous amount of during their long seclusion. The Scions decided to purchase a private island within Kirigakure's shores, and built themselves a palatial complex to rival all the splendours of the new world and moved in. Their skillset also happened to be something that the new world valued immensely, and after navigating the bureaucratic nightmare of forming a company, established themselves within the community as providers of security, as well as masters of any miscellany relating to fūinjutsu and its practices, and grew from there. In an oversaturated market, their goods and services shone as being a cut above those that were currently on offer, and after fulfilling orders from some of the more influential members of Kirigakure their own influence and income increased in turn. so this answers the stuff above. sort of. killing off this clan to get their power would have probably happened sooner. but let's say they did hide /very/ well. i dont think its very safe for them to parade around their stuff, considering Kiri has the means to rip a singular clan on its own. quite easily. I'm willing to accept that they've become a ruling class, but they're not exactly controlling anything and the thirst for their power is quite obvious
Though the public eye is very much on the Immortal Scions due to their successes, the privacy of their island and their exceptional security ensures that their secrets stay as safe as any secret can be in Kirigakure. They continue their life of opulence and decadence from their new sanctuary, and have grown to rather enjoy the pleasures that are readily available within Kirigakure. Content with their lot, they forego any political affiliations except where absolutely necessary - and a certain Kyoko of the Hyakune clan ensures that those that do manage to peer behind the veil of secrecy are discreetly dealt with. When news of the new continent and its potential treasures came to light, the Immortal Scions convened once again to determine their course of action. Yūhi volunteered his services to chronicle the wonders of the new age, and was backed by Kyoko financially to embark on the upcoming expedition to the New Continent--provided that he reported to her anything of interest as soon as he had chronicled it. Under no position to refuse her and still get to explore the troves of undiscovered knowledge, he gladly accepted and reported to Amegakure in order to await their departure.
so the biggest theme of my review here is that most nations would never let these folks off the hook. and while they're good at keeping secrets, things like Konoha or the Empire would have at least some data on something /so/ major. especially since it is regularly practiced. i dont think they'll be so comfortable in kiri. they can have money and the such, yes, but they're not at ease. one of their rich collaborators probably covets the power of Yata and Kinjiro. this /can/ be a plot point in the rp, but yeah, pointing out the inconsistencies.

Name of Weapon or Item: Yata no Kesan (Yata’s Paperweight) Location: Yūhi’s person. Owner: Yūhi Jikangai Rank: A
Description:The Yata no Kesan is a cube forged of an unknown metal and carved with exceptionally intricate seals. The cube has a hollow interior into which its bearer may place objects in order to use the cube’s effects by placing them on a seal atop the cube. Due to the nature of the cube, the space within is potentially infinite and so anything can be inserted into the cube (and, if it is not alive and does not have a strong chakra signature, can be kept there indefinitely).
The cube has three major functions, the first of which is the creation and modification of Fūinjutsu. The cube is able to analyse any and all seals that are placed into its interior (which often requires the bearer copy the seal in question) and provide information on their construction and purpose, as well as provide a counter-seal to negate the seal’s effects if such a seal can be created. (This means that many Jikangai seals, which require Primer Seals created by the Chigoku Inkan, cannot effectively be negated by the cube). The second of the cube’s major functions is the ability to act as a conduit for its bearer’s Chigoku Inkan, allowing them to perform an extended array of functions with their bloodline. In Yūhi’s case, he is able to apply his Chigoku Inkan to any paper within a 100 foot radius of the cube. The cube is also able to store Primer Seals that Yūhi did not himself create, and can replicate them at will for the future. This is also the case for non-Jikangai unique seals.
The final major function of the cube is its ability to contain and interpret knowledge. The cube is essentially a storage device in this regard with the ability to translate knowledge, such as jutsu, into an appropriate Fūinjutsu that its bearer can understand. This process is reliant on the knowledge of the bearer and the knowledge stored within the cube – as such, Yūhi can use it to understand practically any jutsu due to his strong knowledge of the chakra system and of jutsu in general provided that the cube is able to analyse a sample of the chakra, be it from the jutsu being performed within 100 feet of the cube or if its chakra has been stored in another medium and introduced to the cube. The cube is also able to decipher any linguistic codes given to it due to Yūhi’s immense knowledge of linguistics.
okay let's start with seals. the copying and unsealing part. this honestly will depend if your opponent or the EM is inclined to let you do this. i really don't want to balance this, so it'll cling on the other party's consent.
the ability to apply seals in a 100 meter radius is strange and i'm also unsure about this. i'm letting this play out in the IC for now.
finally understanding every jutsu. uh, invalid in the new continent for many reasons, and i'd say it doesn't actually give you information on weaknesses or in-depth characteristics. especially if its particularly unique abilities. dont want this to become some exposition tool
Name of the Kekkei Genkai: Chigoku Inkan [Verbatim Sealing] Type of Kekkei Genkai: Fūinjutsu Clan: Jikangai Rank: B-S this is S rank. but ranks dont matter in KG's
Description: The Chigoku Inkan is the gift of Yata passed down to her children on the female side. Female Jikangai will pass the Chigoku Inkan onto their children regardless of the genetics of their partner, but if a male Jikangai were to procreate with a non-Jikangai female the resulting child is not guaranteed to possess the Chigoku Inkan, which would result in the child not being a Jikangai.
Simply put, the ability of the Chigoku Inkan is an innate mastery of Fūinjutsu that extends into manipulation of ninjutsu-like effects. Bearers of the Jikangai bloodline are able to create any effects that they can imagine provided they meet the following requirements: The effect must be understood completely with a single word, the effect must be within the scope of chakra the individual can muster, and the effect cannot defy any laws of nature of physics. The Chigoku Inkan can only apply these desired effects by creating seals in the air around the user or on nearby surfaces that are constructs of pure and fragile chakra, resulting in their effects being rendered null if the seals are physically disturbed or are subjected to any amount of chakra with larger energy or greater control than the seal created by the Chigoku Inkan possesses.
The seals created by the Chigoku Inkan are able to replicate simple elemental techniques without the creator having the elemental affinity necessary to create the chakra, but the seals also have no elemental applications beyond the incredibly minor. The seals are most adept at changes to form due to their Yin-aspected nature, and can be used to perform tasks such as picking locks, exerting physical force (breaking objects, cutting through objects, etc.). As the seals are structurally weak constructs of chakra, their effects on people are highly diminished or negated with even the slightest opposition of chakra unless the Jikangai in question has significantly higher chakra control than the intended target careful with this. The primary utilisation of the Chigoku Inkan is the inherent capability with and knowledge of seals and sealing techniques that it provides, but it is nevertheless a fantastic source of utility rather than power, and forms the basis for many Jikangai clan techniques.
insanely open-ended and could lead to issues. I want to see how /you/ intend to use it. I will not hesitate to slap this if i find it to be silly.
Weakness: Interpret it yourself. translation: any weakness the opponent wants it to be, or EM
Name of Technique: Saiketsu Fū [Blood Drawing Seal] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: D Range: Personal Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: A simple seal that is connected to the user’s bloodstream. Activation of the seal allows for enough blood for a summoning to be performed without causing a break in the skin.
Weakness: N/A
Name of Technique: Kyōsei Keiyaku Kuchiyose no Jutsu [Forced Contract Summoning Technique] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: C Range: Potentially Infinite Nature Type: N/A Handseals: Standard handsigns for Kuchiyose no Jutsu
Description: The Kyōsei Keiyaku Kuchiyose no Jutsu is a Fūinjutsu-based derivative of the original contracts designed to facilitate the summoning process. The seal is inherently incomplete until the addition of blood and a primer seal created by the Chigoku Inkan. The primer seal can be written and given to non-Jikangai members, but is consumed in the process. When the blood of an individual, or a primer seal created from trace chakra of an individual, meets the incomplete seal (and the user’s blood is added in the latter case) a temporary summoning contract is formed that lasts for a single summon. The user can summon the target to themselves, or themselves to the target.
The Kyōsei Keiyaku Kuchiyose no Jutsu has unique limitations determined by the primer seal, restricting the use of the technique if any damage would come to individuals affected by the technique as a result of their being displaced or if they would be displaced upon arrival, resulting in the technique being guaranteed to be safe. i like this ability and has a lot of potential.
Weakness: Interpret it yourself. stop, dont put a weakness section if its to say this
Name of Technique: Chigoku Inkan: Kami no Sakura [Verbatim Sealing: Divine Blossom] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: C Range: N/A Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: A simple seal that stores another completed jutsu inside it. When activated at the user’s will, the technique is immediately released from the seal. this has ridiculous combo possibilities with your 100 foot application on random paper in the arena. don't get to cocky!!!
Weakness: N/A
Name of Technique: Chigoku Inkan: Tengoku no Kami no Inshō [Verbatim Sealing: Heavenly Paper Impression] Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu/Fūinjutsu Rank: B Range: 100 Feet Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: Using the Yata no Kesan, Yūhi may exert his bloodline onto any piece of paper as long as it is within 100 feet of him, allowing him to mark it with a kanji that causes an appropriate effect. yeah that's what i meant
Weakness: Shares the same weaknesses as the Chigoku Inkan. so none
Name of Technique: Idōsō no Fū [Never Move Seal] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: B Range: Personal Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: A complex seal that must be drawn onto a solid surface before it can be used (Takes sixty seconds to write). Upon touching a person, the seal activates after a delay of one second and the opponent’s muscles in their somatic nervous system forcibly contract, leaving them completely unable to move. Additional applications within twenty four hours of the application of the seal do not work. the charge time is long but this is essentially a 1 hit KO. im going to say that this isn't actually the case. as in, any sort of shonen reaction to it would free someone
Weakness: Interpret it yourself.
Name of Technique: Jiryoku no Fū [Seal of Attraction] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: B Range: Touch Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: Yūhi has tattooed this seal onto his left palm. When he focuses his chakra into it, it glows with a faint blue colour and the next object Yūhi touches with his left hand will be attracted to the seal on his palm. It is also able to attract chakra, but not Yūhi’s chakra or chakra in another person’s body. He is able to leave an imprint of this seal on anything he touches with his left palm. The imprint will be attracted to the Sekiryoku no Fū. Yūhi can also place these seals on other people or objects, and can use it with his Yata no Kesan or Chigoku Inkan: Tengoku no Kami no Inshō. i assume this is one time use? then has to be re-applied? if so that's fine. may regulate just how strong it gets.

Name of Technique: Sekiryoku no Fū [Seal of Repulsion] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: B Range: Touch Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: Yūhi has tattooed this seal onto his right palm. When he focuses his chakra into it, it glows with a faint red colour and the next object Yūhi touches with his right hand will be repelled by the seal on his right hand. It is also able to repel chakra, but not Yūhi’s chakra or the chakra in another person’s body. He is able to leave an imprint of this seal on anything he touches with his right palm. The imprint will be attracted to the Jiryoku no Fū. Yūhi can also place these seals on other people or objects, and can use it with his Yata no Kesan or Chigoku Inkan: Tengoku no Kami no Inshō. same as above
Weakness: N/A
Name of Technique: Jisatsu Hōjo [Assisted Suicide] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: A Range: Touch Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: The user tattoos their body with several seals which they can activate at will, or automatically activate when touched by another person in a combat scenario. Within the seals are various weapons, stored in such a fashion that they are partially ejected from the seals upon their activation with fairly considerable force. If the user is struck by a blow from an individual directly on one of the seals, the resultant ejection of the weapon within will almost certainly pierce directly through them. Yūhi has placed dramatically sharpened kunai (with the aid of his Fūton chakra) within the seals that are sure to puncture anything not protected by an extremely robust defence.guess this is fine. very anti-melee.
Weakness: The seals require some maintenance, and Yūhi must periodically replenish the Fūton chakra within.

Name of Technique: Yūhi ga Jōshō [Sunset Rose] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: S Range: Within the 188 “Jōshō” tags. Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A Description: A very powerful sealing technique, requiring 188 tags be placed around whatever is to be sealed. Anything, of any size, can be sealed within this technique. Upon placing all 188 tags and forming a Snake handseal, the user seals whatever was in the tags into a large scroll folded to look like an origami rose. Weakness: The number of tags that must be kept in place for the technique to function is very large, and the technique requires 65% of Yūhi’s maximum chakra to function, in addition to the chakra embedded into the 188 seals.
Name of Technique: Yata no Kesan: Kami no Kin’yu [Yata’s Paperweight: Divine Embargo] Type of Jutsu: Fūinjutsu Rank: S Range: 1 mile Nature Type: N/A Handseals: N/A
Description: The Yata no Kesan: Kami no Kin’yu allows the bearer of the Yata no Kesan to prevent all usage of a specific technique within a mile radius of the cube. In order to do this, the Yata no Kesan must first have knowledge of the technique stored within it, and the technique must be able to be converted to a seal. The Yata no Kesan places a seal over the seal representing the technique, which will prevent all chakra from being moulded into said technique within the mile radius, but will suspend all other functions of the Yata no Kesan until Kami no Kin’yu is cancelled. This does not apply to Chigoku Inkan: Tengoku no Kami no Inshō.
Weakness: Interpret it yourself.
okay I bitched a bit in the history but that's to cover the inconsistencies in the Jikangai story. there's no way they'd be so comfortable with the outside world. Not with their power. They do offer good potential for plots but they shouldn't see themselves as so godly when any nation could just will them out of existence if they so pleased just to pillage them.
Still unsure about this dude being immortal. Gives him a ridiculous amount of insight into the world. Yata's existence also leaves me concerned, as they would be /that/ know-it-all clan. The one that knows what no one else in the RP does. I would argue that their isolation prevented them from knowing much of anything when it came to Kaguya, Hagoromo and the big events in the world. That's what you seemed to imply anyway.
Power-wise, like Hillan's character, a lot of it is on probation. Especially the Kekkei Genkai and the Super scanner cube. Should things seem a bit too open-ended and easy to take advantage of, i'll review this again. I'll only care for the S ranks once you apply for them. Once we agree on every little bit I've mentioned, you're good.
I'm not going to do the same meme as Volcarona, but you deserve it --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"It's not my place to judge a man's soul, I simply make the appointment to remove their bending."
Name:Amon Alias:Hōmuru (葬る To remove bending in a contrived way) Age:21 Gender:Male Rank:Low-Jōnin (Equalist) Sexuality:Hetero
Nation:The Empire of Stone Birthplace:Ran Musu - Vassal of the Water tribe Alignment/Affiliation:Yakone Organization:Equalists Clan:Kurogama ----------------------------------------------------------- Appearance: As an ANBU operative, Jinzo is rarely seen without his issued uniform. Predominantly dark and plain, the most defining feature of this outfit is, of course, his pure, white Amon mask adorned with a red circle positioned on the forehead. Small, intricate streaks of red also outline the contours of the face. Even when not on active duty, Jinzo prefers the sanctity of his mask. His face has not been seen by anyone outside of his direct superiors, even the Royal Family no nothing of his true identity except they do, trust me. His rather modest attire affords him the ability to become indistinguishable amongst a crowd, aiding him greatly in his missions set forth by the Empire.
Much like his wardrobe, Jinzo doesn't strike you as a very imposing figure. He stands up at 5'9 and walks around at a lean 155lbs. He bares some marks and scars here and there though nothing too defining or noticeable, not that you'd see them underneath his clothing anyway. He walks with a very slight gait, barely even noticeable really but gained from years spent awkwardly traversing devastated battlefields and carrying corpses. Whenever he moves it is usually with timed precision, Jinzo attempts to shed any waste from his movements so that he may always be first to the punch, should the situation ever call for it.
Personality: Jinzo is a very focused person. He has clear goals and is quite determined to achieve them. He takes his orders seriously and aspires to become the most efficient ninja in his division. Where people are concerned, Jinzo doesn't shy away from interaction, though he doesn't generally go looking for it either. While, at times, he may prefer to keep himself secluded from everyone else, he always makes sure to join in on discussions about missions and objectives, even making the odd wisecrack or joke here and there no pls no jokesters. If he has a particular opinion on something, he is more inclined to say it out loud rather than keep quiet about it, although not in a way that would seem brash and arrogant but more aloof or distant.
He is loyal to his beliefs and his country in that he will defend them if questioned but not so extreme as to rear up in anger. Having grown up watching his father serve the Empire, Jinzo recognizes his place as a tool to be used and is content for things to be that way as he prides himself on his own diligence. Ever calm and collected, Jinzo prefers to keep a cool head during times of stress.
History/Background: Death has surrounded Jinzo for as long as he can remember born with an edgy, demon spoon in his mouth. Not in the usual dark or tragic way, however, even despite the loss of his mother, though that was before he could even remember. Maternity leave had to be cut short during times of war leading to his mother's eventual death on the battlefield mere months after giving birth wooweeeeeeee. But this wasn't the kind of 'death' he was familiar with, for his father - Tenjin - worked as a Royal Mortician, which was merely a fancy way of saying 'body collector'. Day and night, once the battles between each side had been fought and far too many lives had been lost, Tenjin alongside dozens of others would scour the battlefield in order to retrieve weapons, valuables and, finally, the bodies of their fellow countrymen. someone's gotta do it
Jinzo would grow up to follow in his father's steps. After his enrollment in the Imperial Academy and subsequent graduation, a majority of Jinzo's missions as a Genin were mostly posted by the Royal Mortuary. His father, Tenjin, had earnt one or two promotions during his son's time at the academy that saw him elevated to the position of Mortuary Overseer. This gave him the power to specifically direct missions towards his son, given that he was merely a Genin. Tenjin's reasons for this were never explained until one incident occurred during a seemingly routine sweep of a recently deserted battlefield. Jinzo and his team stumbled across an enemy Chuunin amongst the littered bodies, who was heavily injured but still very much alive.
Fight or flight reactions kicking in, the Kumo ninja immediately launched an attack against the trio what a returd, his speed and strength still more than a match for the three Genin even despite his grievous wounds strongest chuunin in the world. It didn't take long for the man to dispatch of Jinzo's teammates, killing one and severely incapacitating the other. But just as he took a hold of Jinzo's neck, the shinobi's body began to succumb to its' injuries i knew crystals sucked. Recognizing the opportunity, Jinzo plunged his kunai deep in between the man's ribs, who let out a guttural roar of pain and as the enemy Chuunin fell to his knees, Jinzo could almost sense his defeat. Which was about the time he noticed a strange phenomenon happening to the man's body; It had begun to crystallize until it was as hard as steel. Slowly but thoroughly his flesh continued to meta-morph, as the dying ninja could only cry out in pain, Jinzo still clung to him in horror before passing out. they still suck
He awoke to his father stood over him as he lay in a medical ward, a solemn look upon his face. Several other people had joined him, Elders of some kind. It was then that Tenjin explained his heritage as a member of the Kurogama clan, through his mother's side, and that he had manifested a rare least rare KG in this rp apparently Kekkei Genkai known as Shōton; the Crystal Release nature transformation. This manifestation meant that he was destined for greater things, although his father had hoped against it. Jinzo was told how his mother was also a Shōton user and how she had commanded battlefields with her exemplary skill and power and had performed various feats that had earnt her the mantle of Kesshōken - The Crystal Fist. Tenjin had protested against the Elders, not wanting to lose his only son on the battlefield as well. gives his son life threatening missions but rejects this? what a fucking cunt
But the Elders of the Kurogama clan were fiercely loyal to the Empire. Originating from the Vassal-state of Ran Musu, the clan offered any member who had awakened the Shōton up as a tool to be used by the Empire good. This was their way of paying the Emperor back for his leniency many years prior. And so Jinzo was taken from his father and forged into a weapon to be used by the Imperial Army. Over the course of a few years, Jinzo learnt how to better utilize his Kekkei Genkai he even began to invent his own jutsu. Along the way he was also recognized for his skill in counter-assassination. By protecting important members of the military from the shadows, Jinzo quickly learnt where and how an assassin would strike which would then enable him to take them out. His impressive success rate spoke volumes to the higher-ups and it wasn't long before he was hand-picked to join the Empire's Tiger Division; an elite group of shinobi formed to take on higher level missions both at home and abroad. they're basically hunter-nins
Most of his time leading up to the end of the war is classified. With the war now having ended, however, Jinzo only focuses on the next mission. Deserter, traitor or foreign target, he can only wait until he is called upon.
Chakra Nature:Doton - Earth Release Shōton - Crystal Release
Kekkei Genkai:Shōton - Crystal Release (Custom Version) Users of Crystal Release can convert varied amounts of solid matter into Crystal. From the Earth itself to other physical constructs, such as wood and metal, Crystal Release users can transform most of their immediate surroundings into weapons, shields and modes of transport. This extends to solid-state Chakra Natures such as Earth and Wood, rendering ninja of those Chakra Natures weak to this Kekkei Genkai. Crystal Release users can also manipulate pre-existing crystals and crystalline structures.
Liquid-state natures such as Water, Lava and Storm Release each have an increased resistance to crystallization due to the more random molecular structure of their jutsu, making the conversion a much lengthier and far more taxing process. As such, Crystal Release users would likely opt against converting liquids due to the extra time and Chakra it would take with little to no advantages over converting solids. cant convert actively harmful elements and attacks.
Gaseous & Energy Chakra natures such as Wind, Boil, Scorch and Explosion Releases are significantly more resistant to crystallization due to the wild molecular structure of their jutsu, with Fire and Lightning remaining unaffected completely. This is because raw energy or chakra cannot be crystallized, as they have no physical mass to crystallize, allowing those with good chakra control or Lightning/Fire natures to counter it. Crystal Release is also susceptible to a specific sound wave frequency: because Crystal requires a very precise build-up of molecules, the proper sound waves can break down the build-up before the Crystal can properly form.
When used on living beings, the crystallization rate is greatly reduced and the Chakra required vastly increased, more-so than any other state of matter, due to the innate Chakra stored within the targeted being. This gives all of the Crystal Release user's opponents a natural defense, since the Chakra itself cannot be crystallized and thus can only be contained by forcing the target's Chakra to the center of their mass by slowly converting their physical form from the outside in. only crystallize people once you've defeated them, I don't want weird /massive damage/ out of nowehere
Special Traits: - Exceptional Chakra Reserves - Exceptional Stealth & Agility he uses crystal release i dont think he'll be /exceptional/ - Excellent Sight & Hearing - Excellent Reflexes - Excellent Taijutsu - Great Cunning - Great Chakra Control
Effect: Jinzo can crystallize the ground beneath him, up to (1 acre) in radius from his position and up to (8ft) deep. Once crystallized, the pitch-black converted earth immediately becomes difficult to traverse, due to the glassy nature of Jinzo’s Crystals. Since the ground has now been infused with Jinzo’s Chakra, he is able to manipulate and distort the reflections of himself as well as his opponents so long as they are standing on Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Jinzo may also manipulate the ground at will, causing spikes and fissures to erupt from beneath the feet of his targets in order to impale, bind or otherwise hinder his enemies' movement.
Activation of this Jutsu allows Jinzo to activate other Jutsu such as Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave and Onyx Crystal Clone Technique.
Weakness: Seeing as this Jutsu is particularly widespread, the durability of Jinzo's Abyssal Onyx Mirror is markedly less than that of his other Crystal constructs. As such, any A-Ranked (and above) Explosive or Blunt-force Jutsu that targets the ground directly can heavily damage or even destroy the Abyssal Onyx Mirror, converting the earth back to its' original state. Jutsu of the same type but lower in rank may take considerably more time and effort due to the sheer size of the Jutsu itself.
Due to Crystal Release's inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures, even lower ranked Jutsu of these nature types may be able to discard of the Abyssal Onyx Mirror with relative ease.
The sheer size of this jutsu gives it a vastly extended cast time (2 posts), whereby Jinzo must remain stationary as he crystallizes the ground beneath him. Any interruption made during the casting of this technique will cause it to fail instantly, wasting a massive amount of Chakra.
In regards to dodging, the main things to dodge would be the spikes/fissures after the Jutsu has been cast, though they aren't instantaneous attacks. If anything they're supposed to be used to catch an opponent off-guard in order to setup for another attack or Jutsu. Therefore most, if not all, Chuunin-level ninja & above should be able to dodge them quite simply under completely normal circumstances. It's possible for an opponent to escape the crystallized area using whichever mobility/flight Jutsu they prefer or by simply climbing any structure or tree that might populate the area. seems ok
Name:Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave Rank:A Range:Mid-Range Nature:Shōton Type:Offensive, Supplementary
Effect: Jinzo may perform this Jutsu only once he has activated Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Upon activation of this Jutsu, Jinzo's Crystals begin to envelop any opponent within range who is also touching Abyssal Onyx Mirror, immobilizing them almost instantaneously, all the while restricting the movement of their upper body as his Crystals begin to cover them entirely. Not only that, but the technique begins to slowly drag its' prey beneath the surface of Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Repeated struggling only seems to accelerate the process, whilst also enabling Jinzo to gradually crystallize his opponents by forcing the target's Chakra to the center of their mass and converting them from the outside in.
Weakness: Due to this Jutsu's heavy dependency on Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror, Black Burial Wave can be destroyed alongside its' parent Jutsu. Not only that, but it is also far less durable than Abyssal Onyx Mirror, making it easily stopped by offensive Jutsu of lower ranks.
Like all Crystal Release Jutsu, Black Burial Wave possesses an inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures. -----------------------------------------------------------
Name:Crystal Release: Black Burial Rank:A Range:Short to Mid-Range Nature:Shōton Type:Offensive, Supplementary
Effect: A scaled down version of Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave. This version, however, doesn't require the activation of Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror. Jinzo may perform this Jutsu on only one target within range, focusing most of his Chakra to increase its' speed and durability.
First, Jinzo must calculate the exact position of his opponent before crystallizing the ground beneath them. As soon as his opponents touch the crystallized ground, the Jutsu begins to envelop them, gradually immobilizing them as his Crystals grow further and further. Once the target is stopped, the Jutsu may then begin to drag its' prey beneath the surface of the Earth. Repeated struggling only seems to accelerate the process, whilst also enabling Jinzo to gradually crystallize his opponents by forcing the target's Chakra to the center of their mass and converting them from the outside in. same as i said about turning people into crystal. lame gimmick, full paralysis or external damage is fine
Weakness: Despite being far more durable than Crystal Release: Black Burial Wave, Black Burial is still susceptible to Explosive and Blunt-force Jutsu of equal or greater rank. Not only this, but the concentration required to predict where a target is going to be remains rather challenging and, as such, opponents that are able to move at high-speeds are particularly difficult to catch using this jutsu.
Like all Crystal Release Jutsu, Black Burial possesses an inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures. -----------------------------------------------------------
Effect: By using either Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror or Crystal Release: Onyx Crystal Mirror as a medium, Jinzo can make clones of himself emerge from their mirrored surfaces. Due to being made of Crystal, they can endure more damage than a Shadow Clone. These clones are also able to deceive Byakugan users because of their reflective nature, but by focusing their sight, this can be circumvented.elemental clones are A rank. For good reason.
Effect: Jinzo uses crystallized earth to create a large serpent-like dragon, which he then uses as a means to travel. When used offensively, Jinzo can create multiple dragons to attack or bind his opponents from multiple directions.
When used in conjunction with Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror, Jinzo can create several more dragons albeit at a much smaller size. The technique is generally used this way to combat multiple opponents at once.
Weakness: Jinzo can only create up to (3) dragons when used normally. When used with Abyssal Onyx Mirror, he can create up to (9). Like all Crystal Release Jutsu, Onyx Crystal Dragon possesses an inherent weakness to Fire and Lightning Chakra natures.
Effect: Jinzo uses this technique to envelop himself in dense Onyx Crystals in order to protect himself. This is easily his most durable technique and may even withstand attacks from some offensive Jutsu of higher ranks. Once the danger has passed, Jinzo can discard the technique at will.
When used in conjunction with Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror, the cast time is moderately reduced. However, what Jinzo makes up in cast time, he sacrifices in durability.
Weakness: This particular Jutsu renders Jinzo stationary, forcing him to try and withstand an attack head on. Despite its' high durability factor, Onyx Chrysalis can still be heavily affected by Fire & Lightning Jutsu and, in some cases, even completely destroyed.
The cast time for this Jutsu is not instantaneous, meaning that Jinzo could not use Onyx Chrysalis as a last resort block. The Crystals themselves take time to completely envelop Jinzo due to their density. -----------------------------------------------------------
Effect: Jinzo creates a large pitch-black mirror which he can then use to perform the Onyx Crystal Clone Technique.
This technique may also be used in a defensive manner by Jinzo to confuse his opponents mid-attack, by materializing the Onyx Crystal Mirror directly in front of his own position or that of his opponent's, showing either party's reflection as dictated by him.
Effect: This technique allows Jinzo to cover his skin with a thin sheet of Crystal that improves his defense against physical attacks. This armour can also aid him to perform stronger physical attacks. The Crystal is transparent and can only be noticed by light reflecting off it. considering this weaker than Kakuzu's earth spear defense and power with same weakensses
Effect: An advanced version of Crystal Release: Onyx Armour, Jinzo creates a pair of dense Crystal gauntlets that greatly increase the power of his melee strikes.
Weakness: This jutsu possesses a time limit for how long they can be used. The gauntlets also take damage reflective of how much power is used per strike. Their damage output is reduced when used against Fire or Lightning Jutsu.
Effect: Jinzo surrounds himself with Chakra before tunneling beneath the ground, by crystallizing it, to reach a new position of his choosing. This Jutsu affords Jinzo a relative amount of stealth depending on how deep he decides to tunnel as well as a very effective means of escape.
Jinzo may also use this Jutsu in conjunction with Crystal Release: Abyssal Onyx Mirror. When he chooses to do so, the speed and stealth of his relocation is greatly improved, giving some of Jinzo's opponents the impression that he is capable of teleportation.
Overall the character's alright. Crystal release is general pretty fucking gay, Ice turned earthen type of shit. But anyway, handle this clone issue and probably remove one of the burial things, two is redundant anyway. After that? Approved.

【Appearance/Wardrobe】
Sakana frequently dresses in more or less standard Iwahagakure garb for chunin. He prefers to wear black wifebeaters with his flak vest over it, with skin tight gloves that reach all the way up to his biceps. It leaves just a tiny bit of his shoulder uncovered. Similarly his gloves have finger cutouts so he can still use his feeling senses to work. Not like Shinobi are known for their understanding of fingerprints anyway, so it's not like he has to worry about leaving fingerprints during his work. just for that they're now a thing
He wears the standard shinobi slacks with shinobi footwear. It's standard issue and thus, standard wear for him. During his freetime he slips into something more casual like a sweater and slacks, but overall he doesn't really find himself pre-occupied with fashion.
On the other hand he takes good care of his body - not just in terms of fitness, but also in less direct ways. Combing his hair, washing it, all that stuff is something Sakana (and the entire Uragiri clan for that matter) takes great care and pride in. Something interesting for you to know, I suppose.
Sakana is somewhat of an asshole straight to the odin archetype to those that aren't used to him. He has a rather straightforward approach to everything because in his eyes and mind the outcome is already predetermined by the Sage of the Six Paths, and therefore being courteous, subtle or anything but direct will only lead to a waste of time. Of course, some people's fate is to be subtle and courteous - but there's a difference between being who you are, and falsely being friendly, coy or diplomatic. If you want something - ask for it. If you are going to do something - do it. This goes for anything - from setting a cup of tea to calligraphy to killing a man.
It is no surprise that this siphoned into his personality - he is straight forward, direct and will generally do what he wants whether you approve or disprove of it. Fate is sealed - fighting it only makes you worse at your job. It is a philosophy that is otherwise not very prevalent in Konohagakure - or even the Uragiri clan as a whole - but it is one he came to after deep pondering with a much older, experienced man who said he has seen the Sage of the Six Paths himself after a session of deep meditation. He told Sakana of fate and it's connection to the sage and the wheels of time - was there really any other conclusion to draw than 'fate is sealed'? he's blunt and stubborn, then
Although Sakana is far from a bloodthirsty shinobi who has no problems killing and who doesn't feel a shred of emotion whenever a companion or enemy dies, he is certainly not a very emotional person and thus has no quarrel in committing the act itself. Fate is sealed after all and death is part of fate. Separation of emotion from work is a very dangerous thing and Sakana realizes that - but separation of emotion from fate is entirely natural. For fate to occur is natural and so are emotions, but to link them is intrinsically useless and brings nothing to the table.
Sakana was born in the tumultuous lands of the Raijin dynasties, into a live of poverty and tribal powerstruggles that's because he was white lbr. Much of his youth was characteristically bland, as he followed the path of so many other Uragiri before him, joining the ranks of the many soldiers of Iwagakure do you mean kumo. The Uragiri provided bland, but hardy soldiers to fill the ranks with. His early life followed that trend exactly, becoming a shinobi early on and doing his best to support the tribe and the king of thunder. During his time in the equal of the shinobi academy within the Raijin dynasties, he excelled in sealing jutsu, as well as sparring and more theoretical studies such as history and religion. His genin years were characterized by strive with his teammates, one of which was the heir to a local noble clan and tribal leader. Fate had been decided that day, but Sakana didn’t know it yet.
During the war effort later, this conflict came to a high and Sakana challenged the heir to a duel to prove his strength, as was custom in the Raijin dynasties. Amidst spectators the two fought, the battle not going in either’s favour until the heir got a solid hit in on Sakana’s legs and brought him down, and rather than kill him, he spared Sakana’s life – one would think this was mercy, but to Sakana it was worse. git gud pleb
He was branded with a large, black X over his right eye, marking him as a banished shinobi and effectively making him free game for Kumogakure shinobi. After a three day grace period he was officially scrapped from the ranks of the Kumogakure forces, seemingly never having been a shinobi at all. wrong hood
Luckily for Sakana he found a group of Iwagakure shinobi two days travel away from the Kumo lines, and convinced them to take him in. Originally sceptical, they noticed his seals and instead of scepticism saw a chance to earn a solid shinobi for their armies. Little did they know that he was more than proficient after a life of being hardened in the Raijin dynasties, and he soon earned himself the rank of Chunin. After the war effort he was officially placed in charge of a selection of two other chunin, sent to Amegakure as part of a diplomatic envoy, but that would soon turn to a whole different mission. chad empire vs virgin tribes
These are two blades made of steel that can be infused (through the Hien/Flying Swallow technique) to sharpen their properties and make them more deadly. There are two seals, one on the handle of each knife, for use with the Fuinjutsu: Osu and Fuinjutsu: Hiku techniques. Besides that, they have no real 'special' properties.
A simple dao with no defining techniques or special variables. It’s strong and can withstand combat against other regular strong weapons, but techniques with enhanced weaponry or so will chew through it easily.
Ura Shishō FūinWilling to remove if necessary but the jutsu is so remarkably useless for a roleplay/a character, and I like the jutsu for exposition and flair.
keep it only as some plot-convenient suicide ability. dont use in pvp, even if you're about to die, unless you opponent wants it. Ａ ｒａｎｋ ｔｅｃｈｎｉｑｕｅｓ
This Doton technique forms the basis of a three-nature combination. The Bowl jutsu causes the target to be encased in a dome of earth around them, which then lifts up off of the earth on four earthen pillars. The jutsu is simple. There really isn't much to it - it doesn't kill, damage, or harm you, it just traps you inside the dome. That's bad, right?
Well you can break free. Use S, A, B, or C-rank lightning based jutsu's to break through, or use sheer force if you're really that strong. Just do it in time before the next part of the combo.

This Suiton based jutsu is the next step. Thought being trapped in a dome of earth was bad enough? WRONG! Through a hole in the top of the dome that briefly opens at the command of the user, the user then spews water into the 'soup bowl' until it's full of water. Congratulations, you'll now be drowning!
Since this is a suiton jutsu, you could possibly use wind to create a bubble of air for yourself to breathe, though it's not drowning you need to worry about. At this stage of the combo it becomes more or less impossible to use electricity to free yourself from the dome as you'd electrocute yourself. Unless you're willing to risk that. Sheer force would still be enough to break free, but since water slows down movement, it'd likely have to come from the outside.
Or another solution. Maybe you can think of something. Better hurry before the next step, which is..

The final step in the three jutsu combo. True to it's name, this is the step that probably is the most dangerous for whomever gets trapped. Using the Katon nature, the user lights a fire underneath the earthen soup bowl/dome that they created, beginning to boil it at an alarming and dangerous rate for whomever is inside. Drown in the soup made of your own body! Muahaha! Ahem. There is no real defence for this step, if you are trapped.
For outsiders it's possible to blow out the fire using wind jutsu, to quench it with a water jutsu, or to simply free those in the bowl with force. Electricity is possible but ill-advised since you'd probably electrocute your friends inside the bowl. can just use bombs to get out y'know

The user seals or gets sealed 3 seals on their tongue, namely the characters for 'atsui' (熱い) meaning 'hot'. These seals contain fire jutsu up to the B rank Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku (can contain smaller ones like the regular Gōkakyū no Jutsu). Due to the small size of the seals, the jutsu are not quite as large as your average great fire annihilation, but the flames burn just as hot.
The technique is easily hidden and it'd require some real good eyesight to see these seals. Similarly, because the jutsu uses a standard jutsu, it is not quite apparent that they're using sealing to be used, and it's easy to mistake these for a jutsu being used without handseals. As such, finding out that seals are used in this technique will be extremely hard for anyone that doesn't have specifically good eyesight. The seals are activated by flowing jutsu to them to 'unfurl' them, and then allows the user to spew out the technique.

Using two seals, one on each hand, the user can push (osu) away items that have been either a) touched or b) had a seal placed on them. The push is relatively weak and can be used to subtly move hands or fists used in an attack (as an example) to dodge it (if the hands or whatever other item has been touched before). The effect is more profound and strong on the knives, since those have been sealed prior to the events taking place and had more chakra infused on them, raising the range up to 100m.

Using two seals, one on each hand, the user can pull (hiku) in items that have been either a) touched or b) had a seal placed on them. The pull is stronger than the push. This does little to enhance the actual effects of combat, though perhaps it can be used to pull incoming fists into his hands. More likely, it is used to pull his knives back towards him in a range of up to 10m. It’s an auxiliary, powerless but very useful technique.
Axu is an axolotl of about 1.5 meters high, and five meters long. However, most of that is his tail. He is a bright orange with black drawings all over his body in various shapes, most notably a marking on the front of his head that reads 'Axu' in kanji. This marking seems to be entirely natural and it seems to be the case that he was named after this shape.

Axu has the 'power' to produce a large amount of water from his throat by using his chakra, producing either a steady high pressure stream of water or a large waterball. Furthermore, his aquatic nature as a newt means he's extremely capable in the water and can swim extremely fast - while he is much, much slower on land. Lastly, as is the nature of axolotls, he has an extremely fast regeneration rate that he can use to heal himself (and only himself, never anyone else) extremely quickly to mend broken bones, tails that were cut off or even arms. If you want to kill him for sure, cut off the head.
Lastly he can fit up to three people in his mouth if they sit down.
Very little to say about this character. Overall balanced, may need to be careful on the push/pull seals as they have a lot of potential. Most of it is completely fine. Approved.
【Clan/Bloodline】 The Aragami are a family of civilians, so nope.
【Rank】 He was a genin when he left the Stone. Most people don't even know he's a shinobi these days. oooooboi
【Chakra Nature】 Earth
【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Tsubaki is the kind of person who you can generally figure out just by looking at his face. A tired, almost lazy looking smile is his most common expression, and he rarely looks as if he's taking a situation seriously, even when he actually is!
He will constantly have something sticking out of his mouth, as he has only recently quit smoking and needs something similar just to tide him over cute quirk. This may be a pencil, or a piece of paper rolled into a cylinder, or any number of other things, just so long as they have the same basic shape.
As for clothes, Tsubaki rarely wears anything that could be considered particularly complicated. In fact, he refuses to wear any clothes that would take more than two minutes to put on, saying he would rather spend that time actually enjoying himself shit he's a man. For this reason, he tends to stick to standard shirts and pants. Maybe a jacket or coat, if he feels like living it up a bit. Of course, there wouldn't be a whole lot of colour to them, but he's pretty sure that's not that important.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 Unlike during his childhood, Tsubaki is fairly laid back and relaxed these days. One of his greatest joys is being able to enjoy a little peace and quiet, without having to worry about anything. This has been something of a rarity throughout his life, but when such a moment comes along, he won't pass it up. Overall, his philosophy involves not getting stressed over the small things, lest you miss the big things right in front of you. his life choices dont help at all
He tends to try and make friends with the people around him, even if he's not always great at it, and finds enjoyment in teasing people and getting under their skin, especially if he thinks they're too strict or uptight. However, he also knows there is a fine line between annoying someone and upsetting them, and he has a great fear of crossing that line. If he should accidentally cross it, he will go to great lengths to make up for his mistake, as in his own words, friendship is one of the big things in life. However, one thing that has stuck with him since childhood is his hatred of killing others, usually going well out of his way to avoid the act. Even when he is in battle, and at danger of being killed himself, he will go well out of his way to try and take his opponent down non-lethally. he's a goodboi
Despite his usually somewhat relaxed nature, there are a few things that will cause his personality to do a near complete 180. The first is if someone wastes, ridicules or otherwise disrespects food and cooking. Do that, and you'll be on the receiving end of an earbashing so bad the Raijin has joked about classifying it as an interrogation technique. Food is definitely a pretty big thing in life, after all. total bumpkin feeling here, nice
The second is... Well, a little more serious. This is when he thinks someone is coming close to figuring out his identity as a former shinobi of the Stone. Even though he may seem like he's acting the same on the outside, on the inside he will go into overdrive, his paranoia and survival instincts consuming his thoughts. His safety is a pretty big thing. One of the biggest, in fact. yes pleaaaaase
And finally, the third goes right back to being dumb, occurring when he doesn't have something cigarette shaped in his mouth. When this happens, he will begin to second guess himself, getting worried far more easily than usual. As it turns out, not having a cigarette or appropriate substitute on hand makes the small things in life seem a lot bigger. except the only thing that matters to him as a man
Tsubaki was born in the outskirts of Iwagakure, to a small, poor civilian family. Life was hard for someone so young in that position, as they barely had what they needed to support their family as it was, let alone an extra mouth. Still, they held strong, doing as much for their son as they could.
It wasn't until Tsubaki was six years old that things began to look up. His sister, Izumi most generic female name. may as well call her sarah, had already been a shinobi for a little while, but right after his sixth birthday, she became a chuunin, and started making a name for herself as an exceptional shinobi. Tsubaki had already thought Izumi was cool, but after all her successful missions, she quickly gained the honour of becoming his hero no sibling fights? smelling the very anime sibling relations here mmmmm, lets hope it doesn't go further, and it wasn't long before he decided to become a shinobi as well. At first, his parents were worried, but they eventually calmed down after Izumi promised to watch out for him and teach him what she could. It was this that led to Tsubaki's life long dedication to the use of polearms, doing his best to replicate his sisters abilities with her spear.
However, things changed once more when he entered the academy. At this point, Izumi was widely considered a full on war hero, and it was all but impossible for her to take time off, as busy as she was with the war. As he ended up at the academy, he quickly learnt that the way they taught was very different to Izumi's methods. They were expecting someone like Izumi! Someone strong, assertive and courageous! Instead they got Tsubaki, who at this he was soft spoken, easily upset and too scared of annoying others to even think of putting his own opinions forward. In addition to this, his teachers didn't show the understanding and patience Izumi had, with even the kindest of teachers eventually finding it somewhat irritating to try and teach him. Oh, he learnt well enough, but he was just too... passive. He even seemed to try and avoid attacking vitals in exercises, instead focussing on non-lethal attacks. This continued despite his teachers concerns that, on the battlefield, this could easily cost him his life. total fucking pussy, deserves to revive my cyberbully meme
Despite all these however, he eventually managed to pass the academy, officially becoming a genin. Over the next few months, things were almost... Well, nice. He was able to complete a number of D-ranks without coming to worry about it too much, his team and jonin sensei were actually pretty patient and friendly towards him, and there were even a few where he got to show off the only talent he had any confidence in, cooking. The only exceptions were a couple of missions where he ended up working with one Shinrikyo Nagi welcome to the family son, which he spent terrified that he was constantly pissing her off.
And then one mission, his very first C-rank, changed everything. His team had been sent to help with repairs at a small village a few days journey from Iwa itself. He had actually been truly excited in the days leading up to it, not only because it would be the first time he travelled outside the village, but also because Izumi had apparently volunteered to help out as well. According to the message she'd sent, she had been given some time to rest after her last victory and deciding to try and meet him and his team on her way back to Iwa. The first two days of repairs were happy ones, as the two siblings caught up. i sense something fishy
However, the second night brought tragedy yep. Apparently, a number of cloud shinobi had abandoned their posts in order to make a desperate, and in their eyes heroic sacrifice, striking into the heart of the empire and weakening it enough to give the dynasties a small chance of victory. Fortunately for Iwa however, they ended up running into Tsubaki's jonin sensei on the journey, as he patrolled the area around the village. The resulting battle was loud, as the jonin did everything in his power to raise the alarm while the shinobi tried to stop him. Thankfully, it worked, and Tsubaki, Izumi, and the other members of his team were quickly awoken and went to join the fight. As it turned out, the Kumo shinobi were stronger than expected, and they quickly knocked out Tsubaki and his team, leaving the two jonin to fight back on their own. fucking fodder noobs compromising the GOOD elements
When Tsubaki came to, it was to a sight he wished he could erase from his memories, but knew he never would. The ground was littered the bodies of the Kumo nin, the smell of blood heavy in the air. Amongst them lay his jonin sensei, also quite clearly dead. And only a little way from his corpse lay his sister, hand still clenched around her spear as she bled out. Unable to contain his grief, Tsubaki ran to her, sobbing the entire way, only for her to tell him that she was sorry, her voice weak. Before he could ask why, she lifted one shaky hand and gave him her spear. Tsubaki instantly realised what she was telling him to do, and tried to say no, but she insisted, telling him that there may very well be more of them, and she knew too much to let herself be captured. Realising that everything she said was true, he took the spear from her, sobbing uncontrollably the entire time. That day, Aragami Tsubaki made his first kill and last kill, a kill stain his soul forever. yeah dont count on that one, sad shit tho :(
Aragami Izumi. rip the swole jonin, dead because bad fodder backup
After that, he dragged his unconscious teammates back to the village, Izumi and their sensei's sacrifice allowing them to escape with their lives.
And then he ran. He ran far away from the village, from Iwa, from everything. During that battle, he had been reminded just how weak he was. A shinobi? How could he even begin to think he was strong enough for that?! His incompetence had gotten his sister, his hero, killed! It had gotten his sensei killed! It had nearly gotten his friends killed! He couldn't face the people of Iwa again, not after this failure. It wasn't until he had passed the countries borders that he realised what he was doing was desertion, or even that he still held his sisters spear.
He was a missing nin. prepare thine anus
And that horrified him. very reasonable
It was then that he came to a decision. From that day onwards, he would wander the land, learning what he could and improving himself as not only a shinobi, but as a person. And one day, if he managed to actually survive, he would return to his homeland, his head held high, and redeem himself. and he got his own timeskip arc!!!!
And that was exactly what he did. He travelled between all five of the great nations, learning what he can. He passed himself off as a travelling chef, befriending people across the continent, and slowly, over the years, he grew as a person, his entire outlook on life changing. Of course, he trained himself to the limits, scouring books and scrolls he came across for whatever jutsu he could find. He also went to great lengths to hide his former identity and change his appearance, even killing cells in his hair to change it from its previous brown to pure white smurt duder. However, after a while, he found that he wished to stop wandering, and perhaps settle down for a little while. The solution to this problem, his yearning for somewhere to call home, came in a form he never would have expected.
The village hidden in the clouds, Kumogakure. insert that shit star wars meme about traitors
After the war, the town was a mess, and his anger towards the nation had faded years ago. And so, he set up shop for a little while, making sure the people of the Raijins tribe had good food and doing what he could to help rebuild. He had only planned to stay a little while, but when he realised that he could truly help people there, he decided to stay a little longer.
And a little longer.
And a little longer after that, too.
A year later, Tsubaki was a well known face in the tribe, and he had come to befriend many of the villages shinobi. This included the Raijin themselves, who had also taken a hands on approach to restoring the village as best they could. In addition to that, they were a regular customer, and the two became close friends. Eventually it got to the point where, despite the risk, Tsubaki trusted them enough to tell the the truth of his identity, as well as the story of why he left. Honestly, he fully expected the Raijin to turn on him. He was pleasantly surprised however, when they allowed him to continue living in the village as a friend and citizen. There were two conditions to this though. The first was that he was to inform all the jonin of his true identity in an official meeting. At first, a few of the shinobi he'd befriended turned on him, as along with their general anger at the empire, many of them had lost friends to Izumi specifically. However, it wasn't long before his previously established bonds with them won out over their anger, and they viewed him as a friend once more. the power of friendship amirite
The second was that he take an 'unofficial' role as a shinobi in service of Kumo. Thankfully, this second job generally involved simply working on rebuilding with the civilians and helping to feed refugees, the kind of thing he had already been doing. Occasionally however, he would be asked to help deal with bandits, or worse, shinobi from rival dynasties. His unwillingness to kill turned out to be something of a boon for information gathering, after all. he'll torture them with ramen boarding
Even during his time as an unofficial shinobi however, the main trait his friends seemed to notice about him was his belief that, despite everything, there should be peace. Not just between the Iwa and Kumo either, but between all the villages, and even beyond that. He just wanted a world where he wouldn't have to watch the people he cared about kill each other. peace is boring, lets make him nagato
After spending two years in Kumo, the Raijin gave Tsubaki the mission of a lifetime. He was to join the expedition to the new world, under the new name Akiyama Izuku yeaaaaah the context behind it will be less whimsical, trust me. Officially, he was a chef, sent by the Raijin dynasty to make sure the expedition had some actual nice food as a sign of good faith. Unofficially though, his mission was simple. Build friendships nice try. The war was over, now it was time to prevent it from rekindling, as there was little doubt that a third war would spell the end of the crumbling country.

Yogensha is the epitome of a calm, collected individual and it shows in her dress. Typically enjoying her position as the leader of Amegakure to it's full extent, she is always seen in perfectly ironed clothing that matches her perfectly.
Otherwise she takes great care of herself, mostly her hair and her face. Being a woman, she believes that her first tool as a shinobi is her appearance, which can be deceiving upon first sight as she looks more like a daimyo's daughter than a kunoichi.
Yogensha is calm, collected, takes her time for things - even when she pours tea, she is the epitome of calm. Her entire appearance betrays nothing about her thoughts, and it is not uncommon for her to take several days of contemplation to reach a conclusion, making the diplomatic envoys of her allies and enemies wait all that time. It is unfitting of a Kaguya, and anyone can tell she is one by her remarkable appearance, marked with red dots. total /casual/
In truth, it is because she is a former shrinemaiden, where they calmed her Kaguya-wilderness and exchanged it with calm, peace, tranquility of mind. Originally she had a wild streak, much more becoming of a Kaguya, and was constantly on the move to escape the people that were chasing her - angry peasants, mostly, for the ruckus she caused in their villages. Her moral compass was led completely astray by her parents, who had taught her to look out for herself and only herself - even the clan was secondary to herself. Theft, murder, it was all okay in her eyes.
Thankfully, it never got to murder to turn her around. When the shrinemaidens took her in, she was resistant to their teachings, but over time it was only natural she became a part of them, and learned to do as they did. The wild streak disappeared partially. From then on forwards she became who she is now - peaceful, though it is said she is simply a slumbering bear waiting to be woken.
It makes her annoying to deal with on occasion, as she always insists on thinking things through and weighing the options. Those who critique her for this, saying she is incapable of making decisions in situations where a quick response is required, they misjudge how capable she is. She is fully aware of her nature and desire to think things through, and knows when to discard this in favour of quick decisionmaking. To her, the power lies in offsetting your enemy - make them believe you are taking your time to think, to move, to act, and then act quickly, destroying them with a single strike, piercing them in the heart - there where it will hurt the most. slow and steaaaady. cute personality
【History】 read this when you first posted, nothing's wrong. not in the moods to go for more dumb comments.
Yogensha was born in an area where little to nothing stood - there were no villages, no people, or even animals. Just wide open plains that were occasionally used for travel. Steppes - that's what the locals called them. The few that existed. It was more or less a requirement to travel by horse here, unless you were a shinobi and could travel faster than the average human. They were ... areas that were of little importance to the rest of the world, but meant everything to Yogensha at a young age. There she could be free. She was raised in the same way - free, without a care, only yourself to worry about. Everything else was a matter for someone else, but not the Kaguya's.
How wrong they were, but how blissful it could be to be wrong.
When she was six she was sent eastwards with a clan of traveling merchants together with her younger sibling. Passed off by her parents like they were.. dead weight. It was natural - like a bird throwing their young out the nest, this was her parents way of saying 'grow up'. It was only later she realized that her parents didn't know better - that they were raised in the same way. But back then it felt like her heart was torn from her. She screamed, kicked and cried as they took her. 'We have orders,' they said, 'to take you to Sunagakure.' She didn't want to go to Sunagakure.
Traveling was harsh. The merchants were slow and took every opportunity to stop and rest. As they got further and further from the steppes where her parents were, she could almost feel the connection severing until something snapped in her head. It was an audible snap - it was just gone. She didn't care anymore. Perhaps she realized herself that there was nothing she could do, or perhaps she figured that her parents didn't care so why should she? Again, she later realized that this wasn't the truth, but at that moment it helped her get through things.
Arriving at Sunagakure, Yogensha and her sibling did not hang around like they were supposed to and didn't enroll in the academy. Rather they left as soon as they were able to, trekking through the desert together to find and explore new lands. It was natural that a child with a wild side to them would do whatever it pleased, especially if it were raised in such a way where the only thing that matters is yourself. Ultimately this was the driving force behind Yogensha's life.
It didn't take long for the natural abilities beholden in the Kaguya clan to take hold of her, allowing her control over her bones as if they were tools. A gimmicky thing at first, a valuable art of warfare later. This went paired with her ability to channel the powers of the gods - or well, she thought it was the power of the gods. During her period in the desert she became very religious, seeing the presence of the Sage of the Six Paths as well as his sons Asura and Indra in everything. They represented balance.
Balance between the blood thirst of the Kaguya clan, and the peacefulness of the Sage's teaching.
During their travels the two Kaguya siblings were picked up by Kirigakure operatives who had been sent out to collect the two presumed orphans. It was originally a simple retrieval mission to take two kids off the road and into an orphanage but quickly became more when it was evident the two came from the dark continent.
The two siblings then underwent years of interrogation to get any information out of them, though somewhat unluckily for them Yogensha could not tell much - after all, she was a child when she left and only knew the border region where the steppes were.
In return for these years of interrogation she was regarded as somewhat of an interesting individual who had appeared from nowhere and was given special privileges, treated as something of a guest of honour at times and an exotic animal to be shown off at other times. This only ended when she entered service for the Chūsei Kokoro Hoji-sha, the CKH, otherwise known as the Loyalty Holders. During her service there she essentially operated in the highly political scene of Kirigakure by ensuring that any military corporations that got too big for their boots were put back in place, to let them know 'Kirigakure is watching' and that action would be taken if anyone got funny ideas about independence.

Neither are in contact with their daughter. no shit
This style of fighting is typical to Yogensha, as nobody but her has managed to grasp it and utilize it. It is based on the wisdom she has gathered, the desire to learn more about the people in the world, the environment and the power contained within chakra - a path to Enlightenment.
But although the Enlightenment is contained within the style, the style refers more to Indra than Asura, using power, ninjutsu, force and law to uphold the values that is deemed important. As such, 'peace' is merely an extension of 'war' in the sense that peace is formed through war, and war is bred through peace. This philosophy lies at the heart of the style.
If we were to discuss the properties of the style in battle, it could be said that the style is used to take on numerous 'heavenly' qualities. If the style is utilized in full, it makes the user resemble something of a God(dess) in a more human way. Although quite obviously this is nowhere close to the levels of Indra and Asura, it does draw on their powers quite a bit.
Because this is not quite a kekkei genkai but more so a style specific to her, it would be hard to say in general what the description is. For a more detailed understanding, you'd have to consider the individual (custom) jutsu.
Ｓｔｒｅｎｇｔｈｓ
The strengths lie particularily in the application of the various jutsu's - they are versatile, and can be used defensively and offensively. This is because they are usually enhancements.
Ｗｅａｋｎｅｓｓｅｓ
You'll have to outsmart, outpower, or simply brute-force your way past her, as the techniques themselves are not particularly inclined towards any element. Another weakness is that despite the visage of a Goddess, she remains very human. Stab her and she will bleed, hurt her and she will cry. She is not a goddess. Just looks like one.
The gunbai you seriously have a problem with gunbais is made of chakra-infused hardwood, meaning that it is durable and capable of deflecting blows. Kunai and shuriken thrown at it will get stuck in it, damaging the wood but ultimately not breaking it. Chopping motions by light blades (kunai, small cleavers, some lightweight katana's) will not damage it, perhaps slice the edges a bit. Larger blades (the blades used by the seven swordsmen of the mist, for example) would cleave the gunbai more easily, requiring a few hits to take it down, but ultimately doing the job.
The infusion of wind chakra allows the user to 'deflect' ninjutsu too in the case of small ninjutsu. Similarly, small gusts of wind that can do small cutting damage may be created by the gunbai too. fukin madara's uchiha return
A standard straight-edge chokuto. No defining properties, other than the fact that it is Yogensha's. It can be broken by a focused technique, like lightning infused blades.
A regular shakujo. Made of wood, with a tip of iron. It's hard, you can be bashed over the head with it. Besides that, no real extremely important properties. In the right hands it's a valuable weapon, in the wrong hands it'll be a regular staff of wood with an iron tip.
A regular naginata. The staff is wood, the tip is steel. It cuts well. It can be augmented with wind chakra to make it cut even better-er. But, ultimately, just a regular weapon that holds no legendary qualities. Still, a weapon to take into account.
A traditional fan made with iron ribs and paper fans. If used properly, you can use it to block incoming strikes by deflecting them. But, it requires a lot of training. Training Yogensha has.
A nagamaki, a type of naginata that features a shorter handle, making it a 'sword' with an unusually long handle. Again, no strange qualities or so. It's a regular nagamaki. It will cut you and you can break it if you try hard enough.
The user will form the tiger seal with two hands, or one if they are that way inclined. Afterwards, the user will 'sprout' four sets of arms that will grow from their back, and are under the full control of the user. This allows them to, for example, form handseals with these arms, or hold weapons. The arms also create new chakra paths inside of them that connect to the original chakra path. Therefore, while this technique seems simple, it's extremely difficult as the body must adjust to the new motor skills required to move the arms, as well as to accustom to the chakra paths. Yogensha has perfected this art, but a new student would likely struggle to learn this technique, if he ever manages to learn it at all. seems good
As it is a manifestation of 'creation' it is a direct representation of Asura, whom was a master of Yang release among other things.

The jutsu starts by forming a tiger seal, one handed or two handed. The user then needs to take their time to gather yin chakra at their chest, to prepare for the next move. A result of the gathering of chakra is that they need to hold the tiger seal for as long as it takes, but also that they begin resembling 'Indra' and thus, a light blue line appears under their eyes.

The user will perform the genjutsu at the moment they release the tiger seal, with the 'trigger' for the genjutsu being the words she speaks afterwards. These words can, quite literally, be anything as the words are not important, but the sound of her voice is.
After the genjutsu is cast, those under it's effect will be faced with a sudden purple mist setting in, limiting their view rather harshly. It is possible for them to be in the same 'circle' clear of mist with other people. Then, from the mist, a 'clone' of Yogensha will appear. This is the genjutsu in two parts; the mist is one genjutsu, the clone is another, but they act together and are cast and dispelled together.
The genjutsu clone is, in theory, a perfect human, and will fight without mistakes. They will block all the attacks that are thrown at them, but all their attacks will never hit (because, a genjutsu has no 'life' and no physical presence due to the fact that there is no yang chakra) and will therefore always pretend to miss, or to be blocked. As a result, the clone will engage in an engagement that can theoretically last forever.
As a result the target will lose stamina fighting the clone and, if they remain unaware of the genjutsu, can be targeted by anyone. Therefore it is easy for someone (Yogensha for instance) to attack and take down the enemy.
As the genjutsu is convincing and similar to other 'real' techniques (the mist technique from Kirigakure, for example) it would be hard to see through it. But if it is found out somehow, it is possible to dispel it using regular means.
A better way to deal with it would be to realize the clones aren't physical, and ignoring them. However, this leaves the mist, and would force you to fight in the mist with limited vision.
The genjutsu affects allies as well. Allies caught in the genjutsu would need to be freed from it by Yogesha/someone else, or else they will see the mist and Yogensha attacking them as well. Also, deaf people are not susceptible to this genjutsu at all because they cannot hear the trigger.
careful, she's now strong at every domain with multiple elements. dont push her strength too much odin.

Yogensha forms a tiger seal with as many hands as she can spare, and molds chakra inside of, and around, her heart. The more hands she uses, the quicker it goes, although it is possible to use one hand only, lengthening the time it takes to prepare the chakra significantly. After she has enough chakra, her arms lunge forwards and move into the target, at which point they become paralyzed (some say it's because of fear, others say it's because of the poison she supposedly has on her hands, others say it's an effect of her chakra). Yogensha's hands will slowly move into the target until they reach it's targets, and the victim can feel her hands on the inside the entire time, until her hands make a grabbing motion and grab something that they'd never felt before, something that isn't meant to 'be' in the body.
Then Yogensha pulls it out, pulling something that appears to be like a cloud of chakra out of the body of the victim. It's entirely crippling, and even if she's unable to get it all out before being interrupted, it will still do lasting, permanent damage that is not recoverable through regular medical means.
If she manages to pull it all out, the victim enters a dormant state, falling over and laying there - on some occasions they essentially become a plant, cursed to live in a hospital forever, staring forever forwards, never becoming truly alive again. Others simply die straight away or after a few seconds.
Yogensha herself is not truly sure what she is actually pulling out, only that it is her chakra and her nature as a representation of Indra and Asura that allows her to do it - she supposed, therefore, that it is either the soul of a person or their entire chakra reserve that she pulls out. The jutsu is, however, extremely dangerous to the victim, so she has never been able to truly study it, only having used it on occasion.

Focusing their energy on their forehead, an eye made of chakra appears that can move around the head at will. It allows the user to add an additional sight sensor to their array, allowing them more attention-per-minute and thus a greater chance of seeing things coming that would otherwise be lost on the eyes. Since it can move around, however, it can also move behind the user, and thus see where they normally can't see.
It's constraint is, however, that it can't move away from the body.

Using all six arms, the user will perform a summoning jutsu, for which the handseals are different for all three pairs of hands. Hence, this technique could only be used by someone that has mastered the Visage of Asura technique.
This summoning requires no contract - the God of Gods is not a living creature. Rather, it is.. best comparable with a statue inhabited by a spirit, or multiple spirits. It is an ancient thing coming from the age of the first two shinobi - Indra and Asura - that was said to have the spirits of Indra and Asura within it. The truth of that is contestable, but the sheer power and size of the thing speaks volumes.
When the God of Gods is on the battlefield, the allies of the summoner will feel inspired and be inclined to fight harder. Similarly, the enemies will feel demoralized and will have a hard time to continue fighting with the lurking eyes of the God of Gods upon them, judging them for opposing him.
Furthermore, the statue has numerous other capabilities that will be detailed in the summoning sheet for the creature. same as the other S rank, though once you have said /sheet/ up, you can start actively developing it in the rp.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Right now Yogensha is in Kage mode and needs to be toned down. She can use ninjutsu (elements and range), taijutsu (bones and super arms) and genjutsu (only one but it's actually really damn strong). Give room for her to evolve in her skills, especially considering her past, she can diverge a lot from what you initially intended for her. I think that's a good thing. Character's fine beyond that, can post in the CS bin when you've purged the S ranks and reduced the amount of jutsu.
【Clan/Bloodline】 Pokemon Clan - The year? Who knows. The Pokemon clan were a nomadic clan, known primarily, and only for their ability to access a powerful kekkei genkai. But due to their poor choices they made enemies left and right, and thus spent the clan's formative years traveling across the area that would one day become the Empire of Stone. They didn't keep a written history, so much of their early history is sadly lost. It wasn't until the founding of the Empire of Stone that the history of Pokemon clan was formally composed. Despite this, the clan was still mostly unknown, as they underpreformed in comparison to other clans that possessed the steel release that's because they are fire bugs. It wasn't until the discovery of the Other Volcarona that the Pokemon clan managed to rise out of the dirt. The metal eating beetles became just as much a part of the clan as the dogs in the Zigzagoon clan. Utilizing their metal eating insects, they managed to push themselves over the other metal clans, and in the end the clan infighting resulted in the Volcarona consuming the other clans, leaving them as the primary noble clan to possess the steel style release. Under the leadership of More Volcarona the clan participated in the first great ninja war. Where their successes revolved around assassination. The clan often butted heads with the Beedrill clan, and the two clans eventually began to merge together. Sharing their bug type knowledge and special clan techniques. Eventually resulting in a complete merger, that ended with the Volcarona clan's name continuing on as the Beedrill vanished as their final daughter joined with the Volcarona. During the second ninja war, with the expansion of war machines, the Pokemon clan's metal devouring Larvesta shone. By sneaking into the enemy area, they would often sabotage enemy weapons by having their bug type pokemon destroy the infrastructure of the enemy's weapons. During the destruction of the land of clouds, the Volcarona played a vital part, and were raised to a noble family as thanks for their contributions. Since then, the Volcarona have been one of the Empire of Stone's prized tactical Pokemon.
Serious talk. Not 100% sure of them rising to nobility by just being useful vs a nation that died mostly due to their lack of technological advances. I'll say its fine, but that then means they've only been recently added to the list. Fresh, low-level nobles.
【Rank】 Jounin / Assassination Squad / Fire and Bug type Pokemon
【Chakra Nature】 Earth, Fire, Steel no magma? pleb
【Appearance/Wardrobe】 Like most soldiers of the Empire of Stone, the nobility wears their uniforms in the most pristine way possible. The nobility is seperated from the common soldier by a unique insignia on the length of their arm, which works to highlight them to their soldiers, without making them stand out as targets. In public, outside of military service, Volcarona is a well dressed gentlebug. Often seen wearing some degree of fine wear, his most distinguished article of clothing is a cloak. A multilayered cloak that resembles the fluff of a greater moth. This outfit, despite its many layers and flourishes is designed in mind to breath. Giving Volcarona plenty of space to utilize his clan Larvesta. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Personality】 The Nobility of the Empire There is something about the way volcarona hovers. The way he looks at others that just tells you that he's nobility. This is the sign of the noble pokemon. Raised from birth to present themselves to the public as if actors on a stage. To never slouch, to always maintain eye contact, to always be generous to those who serve well. In a way, Volcarona is more of a puppet to his family, with a finally crafted personality born from a selective training program. In a way, he is everything the empire adores in its nobility. Power, a crafty mind, and a loyalty to the empire. A loyalty to the emperor above all. Because what is the empire without its emperor? they value his ability flame body too The Intelligence of an Assassin implying half the assassins are smart Volcarona learned to harden his heart to certain things long ago, even before the war. His heart was frozen to the plights of the empire's enemies but was unfrozen when he used lava plume, damn that articuno. No matter how just, noble, or kind they may be, he swallowed his objections, and killed. Volcarona's coldness allows him to approach problems with an analytical compound eyed perspective. By approaching each problem in the sense of value per life, it is difficult in a way for Volcarona to see the human aspect of his actions, or his victims. But, at the very least he keeps it quick. He wastes little, and his kills are as swift as he can make them. for a high critical hit rate Ambition is Evil The old saying is that ambition is evil. Looking to a higher position, and fighting to claim it can often be a path that leads one down dark corridors. Despite his current noble pokemon position, Volcarona is ambitious. He desires to be in a position of appreciation, and the approval of the emperor himself. In a way, this ambition could be evil, but Volcarona doesn't care. After all, there is nothing wrong with ambition. It's foolish self destruction that comes hand in hand with ambition that is a danger. A danger that Volcarona believes he has avoided. he used double team, that cheating fuck -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【History】 We begin with a child born in a forest of metal, much like the insects he controls spode has the best themes i know The Viridian city lays deep within the Empire of Earth. A kind of realm so alien from our own that the mind just can't comprehend it. For centuries, each child of the Volcarona has been born in this alien land of steel as if to introduce them to the world in a way that they will never be surprised by anything else. Because once you see Viridian city, your mind refuses to accept anything else. That's the story anyway. The young Volcarona didn't see that city again until he was five, when he was brought back to become a vessel for the Larvesta. His his insides were changed, his body reconstructed, and for over a month he was left in the clan chambers until his body had fully adjusted to the necessary changes. Host to the Kinzoku It was odd at first, having to adjust to the changes to his body. More so having to utilize his special ability as a means to grow the metals that the larvesta lived off. By growing it over his skin, and learning how to manipulate them to his fullest extent. As nobility, he learned from his clan, inside Viridian city. Soon enough, as a year passed, Volcarona was adding his own tree of metal to the illustrious collection. But more so, he learned to use the clan's larvesta and manipulate their growth. Soon enough, he was drafted for the war at the age of ten. Weapons of War are not a Man Makes In war everybody learns their place. For Volcarona he learned his role first as a form of sabotage. The heracross did the hard work. The task of commanding them, sending them in, destroying the machines of war. That was easy to him. After all, he knew how to do that. Then they wanted him to kill. Volcarona refused. He worked behind the lines, trying to avoid the killing, but eventually he did. It was a man from Konoha. A fire shinobi. He was terrified. Fighting against the larvesta as they bit him, forced him to the ground... Volcarona drove a spear of metal right through his face, killing him and ending his misery. From there, he was tasked to do more of that. With his insects allowing him to spy on the enemy, he was made into an assassin. Tasked more and more to kill shinobi of the land of fire, and even then more shinobi from all over. By the time he was 15, he had killed more men and woman on these missions than he could count edgy poke. Not because he couldn't count that high, but because he was bored of it by that point. It was just a mission. Just another mission for the boy with a heart as cold as steel. War ends when he is only just becoming a man a '''''''man'''''' The day the war ended, was the day after Volcarona turned 18. For eight of his formative years, he had spent them as an assassin. Killing, sabotaging, and giving to the empire. And now, as the war ended, he had to find a reason to keep going. Not just for the sake of living and the empire, but a personal goal. A goal to aid the empire further, with his body and blood as the mortar. But to do so, he must not be complacent with his role. No, he must strive higher. The new world... That offers such an opportunity. Especially if he is to represent the Pokemon clan. Onwards to the Kalos region!!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
【Special Traits】 + Natural Born Leader - Despite his sometimes rude behavior, the ability to lead and make difficult choices, as well as motivate others, is something the Pokemon clan has always fostered. Volcarona just so happens to be one with a natural talent for inspiring some to push themselves. i dont want another 'mongolian bull worm' situation where you cannot settle with anything other than him looking good. leadership is both IC and OOC. Be aware of this. + Remarkable Perception - Many claim the Sharingan to be unsurpassed its true, but Volcarona is remarkably perceptive on his own. He can pinpoint key details in a fight even in a mess of high speed action. This is a key skill when manipulating groups of insects. + Strategic Prowess - Pattern Recognition is important for a strategist. Volcarona has studied patterns and common military tactics, as well as advanced tactics. His primary tactic tends to revolve around fear, by utilizing his butterfrees. + Encyclopedic Knowledge of Bug type pokemon - A life spent around heracross and larvesta has given Volcarona a great breadth of knowledge regarding how to control and communicate with insects of many varieties.

Larvesta - A rare breed of Pokemon discovered over five centuries ago in the land that would one day be Iwagakure. The larvesta, are a unique breed of Pokemon that lived under the earth. They would cluster around ore deposits and eat the metal deep underground. But, due to the difficulty of finding ore veins as time went on, the species was slowly becoming extinct. The insect was discovered by the VPokemon clan, and the clan's metal producing ability was used to attract and tame the insect, creating a symbiotic relationship. As the clan could utilize their chakra to create metal object, they began to house the insects alongside themselves. pretty cool i'll admit With the age of iron coming, the larvesta became a powerful weapon of the Pokemon clan. Utilizing their abilities, the insects could strip the armor off a shinobi in seconds, or eat kunai right out of the air. Almost like airborne piranha. Through the years, and selective breeding, the larvesta developed a unique neurotoxin. The process of which is transmitted by a needle on their rear. The toxin, while not particularly powerful from one insect, is a hallucinogenic. It can make it difficult to focus on objects, and screws with the targets depth perception. The more times a target is stung, the worse the hallucinations become. And in its highest doses can cause vomiting. Thought that can take close to a hundred stings for a full grown adult. Almost like termites, one of the main tactics of the Pokemon clan is to have the insects be spread about an area, and burrow into metal, where they weaken the structure and cause its eventual collapse. It is possible for a single member of the Pokemon clan to cause an entire building to collapse by chewing through the metal supports that keep the building up. While not a primarily meat eating insect, they are omnivorous. Their bites are incredibly painful, and should they manage to get under the skin they can burrow around underneath the skin, and cause severe internal damage. TLDR: Bugs eat metal.
Kyodaina - Under varying circumstances certain insects can grow to tremendous sizes. Such is the caste of the Pinsir. Bred as a kind of transport pokemon by the Volcarona, it also has a high metal diet. But it also possesses a craving for meats. So while the giant insect is often used to carry other shinobi, it can also eat bodies that need to be disposed of. The pinsir possesses a set of pinchers specifically designed for cutting into metal. Almost like a sword, it can slice through a suit of armor, or other hard materials, like stone or ice.
Name of Weapon or Item: Iron Pokeball Description: A large container, designed to house the many bug type pokemon of the Vpokemon clan and too be summoned if for any reason their insect supply is running low during battle. Each container holds roughly 2,000 insects in an area roughly 6'x6'. These Hives are used when a member of the Volcarona has been in battle and their current batch of Volcarona insects is dead or incapacitated. Appearance: A large metal container, carved with the shape of larvesta along the sides, wrapping up to the top. The container is used to hold extras of the insects, with holes littered about to have them released over time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 【Kekkei Genkai 】 Name of Kekkei Genkai: Steel Release Clan: Pokemon/Volcarona (And other smaller clans) Description: The Pokemon clan possesses the Steel Release Kekkei Genkai. Often referred to as the ultimate defense against others, this ability allows the user to generate metals from their body. While the various metals change slightly from person to person, they share many of the same properties. A hard metal shell can be grown from the user's skin, and even as a projectile that can be fire from their body. In other cases, it can even be spat out as a rapidly hardening metal, and formed into various projectiles. It is formed from the Earth, and Fire elements, i would have made it a TK due to its uniqueness with many believing it to be an offshot it is here of the Lava Release style. Various smaller clans still possess the steel release, but the Volcarona had long since become the main clan to possess such a ability. Weaknesses would be lightning and water, then? ------------------------------------------------------- 【Jutsu】
Name: Steel Release: Housing Insects Technique Rank: C Range: N/A Nature: N/A Type: Ninjutsu Effect: A primary technique of the Pokemon clan, and one of their most practical. The base of this technique is that their bodies are opened up and redesigned into insect nests. Their ability to create layers of metal over their own skin or inside their bodies is used to feed the insects, who protect the host and listen to them. It is possible as a result, for the user to create projectiles or weapons in which the insects are already living. Allowing them to be scattered around an area before release.
Name of Technique: Steel Release: Instantaneous Stinger Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: C Range: Mid-Long range Nature Type: Steel Description: A fairly simple technique, based around the ability to rapidly grow metal from the user's body. Making this one of the first techniques that users of the Steel Release tend to learn. The main usage of this technique is that when the user waves their hands, or points in a general direction, foot long spear of metal are fired from their skin. The best example of this would be the finger drilling bullet technique from the spooky skeleton clan. Advanced users of this skill can utilize it to shape various kinds of projectiles, like shuriken, kunai, or even swords.
Name of Technique: Steel Release: Veins Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: C Range: Mid-range Area of Effect Nature Type: Steel Description: Utilizing the Steel Release, the user is capable of growing spikes of steel from the ground. Utilizing this technique, the Pokemon clan developed a powerful terraforming jutsu. By turning the ground around them to steel, the clan creates an area where their heracross, the larvesta, to burrow about, or even feast and grow their numbers if there aren't any enemies about. The spears of steel produced from this technique vary, but can be roughly ten feet long, and appear in a noticeably erratic pattern. As a result, this technique is a powerful defense, attack, and support ability all in one.
Name of Technique: Steel Release: Forest of Steel Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: B Range: Terraforming Nature Type: Steel Description: One of the most powerful jutsu in the Volcarona pokedex. An advanced form of Steel Release: Vein, Forest of Steel was originally utilized to create vast fields of metal that the larvesta could feast on. Primarily used as a method to create a base of operations, or to replenish dwindling insect supplies. When used, large spears of steel erupt from the area, and can only be described as an alien forest. Roughly described as a forest of bare trees, all crafted from metal. Each spike capable of easily skewering an unprepared shinobi. so basically Kimimaro's forest thing
Name of Technique: Steel Release: Silver Powder Type of Jutsu: Ninjutsu Rank: C Range: Mid-range Nature Type: Steel Description: Releasing a breath of steel into the area, small particles of a steel dust float around the area. Reflecting light, and being generally a nuisance to get in the eyes. Not a particularly powerful jutsu, but due to the larvesta's ability to track down metal by its scent, the powder can even act as a tracking agent. Or just really mess with the lungs.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most of this if fine. I'll judge the bugs when they're used in the IC. Expect rulings to happen from time to time, since I'm not completely sure how fights would go down with this.
