Zume Tatasuko

The slightest of smiles was roused at Kojiro's response, but nothing more. It was good, of this he was sure, that the man's outlook was as such. It was open, free, and almost without care for the negative aspects of life, uncaring that it would one day end. It was better that way. Taking in a deep breath and invisibly expanding the patterns of his blade, Zume readied himself even as Kojiro's stance was taken, and his slash executed. The patterns moved to surround him as he read the technique's name from the man's mind, and simultaneously ran a simulation in his mind in regards to the result of the chakra moulded to execute it. All this in a split second and then the movement patterns manifested, and began to spin, each a oval-shaped blade which met at a point above his head and rotated upon that axis, angled downwards in a slow much like a massive umbrella. Each of the blades was 1.5 meters across and almost 3 meters in length. While there were small spaces between each angled piece of pitch black armor--composed of a mixture of solid and liquid void weaved together so as to create a more resilient structure-- they spun and as such caught air and flung it outwards in a secondary dome around 5 meters in radius, with Zume as the epicenter. He did not utter the name of a single technique, for it had no name beyond that which was used for the techniques any Tatasuko utilized to manipulate the void's chakra. "I may have passed your test, but you've only passed one of mine..." he said quietly to himself, smiling despite the man's inability to see the expression. "...but perhaps you will yet," he chuckled, and moved his arm in position to slash horizontally. As he did so, the movement graceful, his arm taking its time to move, 20 more of the movement patterns became externalized from the blade, 10 which formed more of the ovals, though they waited to enter the physical. The other 10 positioned themselves around the blade at different angles, elongating and being forced into the shape of sharpened, pointed edges by his will as they did so. Taking in a deep breath, only a brief 7 seconds having passed since he had erected his defense, his eyes focused and he slashed. He could see it all, every atom, react to the motion as if time were slowed. He could choose to see everything like this, so as to react properly to every minute change or aspect of any given action taken by others. As the blade gradually traveled through the air, the oval plats that hadn't been utilized yet joined their brethren even as those that shaped his defense parted for a moment only for the new spaces to be filled by the moving ovals. His defense had expanded, and as it did so did the massive torrent of wind that surrounded him. Initially the oval-shaped constructs had blocked the blades sent at him, but as they spun and formed the torrent of wind, the wind tore the fragments of dust apart before they ever reached the shield. The slash however, traveled straight through the field of wind invisibly, the patterns externalized, but not yet physical. As they exited the field of wind they scattered, all 10 of them, opened into wide circular blades, hollow in the center, with the distance between each inner portion being a diameter of 8 meters. However, with no air resistance to yet impede them, the still invisible blades, rapidly moved shrunk, appearing like an invisible gyroscope and Kojiro is in the center. To give his opponent a chance and to allow them their own kinetic energy, Zume physicalized the bladed rings when they were roughly 5 seconds from fully closing in, and thus cutting Kojiro to ribbons. This allowed for a brief period of time in which he could block, somehow, or escape the enclosing rings.

Zume Tatasuko

Flicking the blade slightly as if to remove something from it, Zume observed the change and nodded his head slightly. As the man entered sage mode, apparently by way of his blade, Zume's own blade returned to its typical appearance. He bowed his head slightly as the stranger finally revealed his name, finishing the process of pleasantries that had not been finished when they began. Smiling slight as his blatant admission regarding fear, Zume in response, raised his blade before him so that the light could gleam off of it ever so slightly, "its name is Ōku no iroai ni musuko(_{多くの色合いへ息子} 'Son to many shades')," he stated with a slight smile as his eyes grazed over its surface before returning to Kojiro's form. He closed his eyes, and immediately there was a slight shift in his demeanor. "Yes, I suppose you could say we have tested eachother plenty, and it is time that the final exam begin," as his eyes opened, so did those of the abyss, for no longer were they hazel, but pitch black orbs set in his still handsome face. There was both a pull and a revulsion begot from gazing into those eyes, as if they were the essence of emptiness itself. Seijou no nentou karada(Purity of the Mind and Body), he thought in silence as he initiated a technique, then began walking towards his opponent, the man Kojiro. The void chakra scattered about his form seemed to writhe and dance as he moved now, and for the first time, Kojiro would sense killing intent from him. Still, it was not as it would have been from most, no it was a strange mixture of terror inducing emotion and serenity--almost as if it hinted at what lay beyond this life. Fear of loss, then the serenity of letting go of it all and relinquishing ones worries and responsibilities to the world and those in it. It was a unique intent, this was certain, and the shade held it well. "I collect you will not regret if I kill you?" He stated with a slight smile briefly touching his face before fading. He did not enjoy killing, only the conflict which was its premise, but if a man truly held no grudge, perhaps he could enjoy it...just this once.

Zume Tatasuko

His position revealed behind the man, Zume, in a flash, drew his blade from seemingly nowhere, and blocked the strike. His eyes had notified him of its movement patterns, consistency, and chakra make=up allowing him to deduce how to counter it with his own blade. The movement patterns within the blade emitted just along its surface, moving in the opposite direction of the dust, while several other one bunched and created slight grooves and spikes. Several others expanded from the blade, creating a flat wall-like surface as Zume slashed. In this way he blocked the strike, dispersing it over the surface of the wall and carrying through with his slash so as to send a blade of chakra from his weapon downwards at his adversary from only a 2 meters(6 feet) away. "Well done," he stated with a slight smile, solidifying some void chakra and jumping away to land on the ground far below, where he waited. This man's technique was a dangerous thing, he'd need to keep his blade on hand, and the mist active, this was for sure. As such he expelled a small amount of additional void chakra, altering it from a mist to an even distribution of liquid and gaseous void. "You are a capable warrior," he stated simply, almost thoughtfully as he observed the man's chakra as well as a myriad of other layers to his being. He had sensed fear for a moment, an interesting sensation from a man so shrouded in killing intent. Still, along with that he had detected excitement, so it was clear that this man had challenged him not for the sake of fame, or fortune, but for the sheer enjoyment he gleaned from fighting a worthy opponent--at least this was the likely conclusion. Interesting, to say the least, if not somewhat insane. Nonetheless, those of normal mind did not typically get far in such a world as this one.

Yoshua's Character Storage Mark VII

Kimiko Uchiha –

General Data

Name: Kimiko(Empress Child) Uchiha. Nickname/Alias: Miko; Gender: Female. Age: 23. Age Appearance: 20. Sexuality: Bisexual. Birthplace: Land of Fire. Organization: N/A. Position: Clan Head. Clan: Uchiha. Rank: S Rank. Chakra Nature: Fire, Wind and Lightning.

Additional Appearance Details

The clan symbol is on the buckle of her belt and additionally on the shoulder of her right arm. She stands at 5'4 and weighs in average for her size. Her Typical Garb both in and out of combat can be seen below.

History: Born from one of Toyotami Uchiha's many relationships, the damned womanizer, Kimiko was conceived between the aforementioned and a woman named Nekkiko. Nekkiko and Toyotami's relationship was however, quite fragile as it turned out, as Kimiko's mother would later tell her, “your father just couldn't handle so much woman in one person.” Nonetheless, Nekkiko stayed with the clan, so that her daughter could at least have the benefit of protection and of her father being there for her when needed. It was in this way that Kimiko, a fierce and rebellious girl even in her youth, came to be raised among the Uchiha where she made her mother proud and drove her father mad. >Throughout her childhood she was a rebellious little girl >Mommy's little girl for the most particular >Nekkiko, her mother, died when she was 18 >Grief stricken, Kimiko is deeply hurt by her mother's death Daughter of Toyotami and Nekkiko Uchiha. Older sibling to “Shiro”. Only been clan head for 3 years (since she was 20). Personality: Kimiko is a fierce woman with a fire in her eyes and a sassy sway to her step. She is abundantly aware of her authority and as any good leader should, uses it responsibly...most of the time. She has the cheer of her father and the passion of her mother both, but her cheerfulness is not always an honest one. With a skill for acting, she has learned to harness her emotions, knowing that if not allowed to express herself, she would explode—and not in any fun fashion much to her displeasure. Kimiko is a woman of passion, but also one of logic, possessing a strong intuition begotten of her harsh analytic mind—some wrought of training, some which she was simply born with. She is, in some ways manipulative, but at the same time she can be as honest and caring as any mother, loving spouse, caring sister, or close friend. Still, she is not altogether kind and can be quite cruel at times, as she is indeed a woman of many contradictions—as was her mother, and still remains her father. However, above all, she is proud, confident, though with a small amount of the girlish innocence and insecurity that most still hold within themselves no matter their age. A product of her fierce mentality and confidence, Kimiko is the type of women to smile in the face of adversity and take any obstacle simply as a challenge of her mettle. Still, she is not without flaw, hardly, and this is apparent most in times of great personal distress and highly emotional situations. In particular are the emotions of hatred, love, and by extension, anger or passion. She has difficulty dealing with these emotions and, especially in situations of life or death, this can be a strong negative influence on her decisions. Theme: Katalyst - Intergalactic Supernovae

Equipment Data

Base Weapons & Items: X explosive tags. X smoke bombs. X kunai X shuriken X wire X Kaisō kunai Specialized Weapons & Items: Name of Weapon or Item: Yogoshi junrei-sha(汚し巡礼者 'Sullied Pilgrim'). Description: For the most part a typical chakra conductive yari, this weapon is also adorned with six strips of Kaisō nunoji, three of which make up the wrapping about its shaft, and three of which are tied to the small circular formation at its base. The blade is forged of chakra, carbon, and iron making it a durable thing indeed. The shaft has also been infused with chakra and its molecular structure altered somewhat, making it just as durable as the rest of the weapon. Beyond this it is more or less a normal instrument of conflict. The cloth that adorns this weapon was once white, but now maintains a crimson appearance, hence the name of the weapon. ==================== Name of Weapon or Item: Kaisō nunoji(改装布地 'Refurbishing Cloth'). Description: A special form of cloth weaved by Kimiko herself, infusing chakra into each thread as it was weaved. This cloth has, additionally, been infused with several fuinjutsu sigils, allowing for it to regenerate from any damage by absorbing either natural energy or the user's chakra, the second of which is more effective and faster, and transmuting it into cloth. The fabric retains a soft consistency akin to silk despite being capable of fending off even a blade if used properly. This material is extremely sensitive to chakra and in this specimen's case, Kimiko's chakra, making it more or less impossible for others to utilize it properly. Chakra can be channeled through Kaisō nunoji so as to slightly alter its capabilities and, if one has masterful control, structure. This allows a user, such as Kimiko, to actually inscribe fuinjutsu rapidly upon the surface of the cloth—this is its primary function. Name of Weapon or Item: Kaisō kunai. Description: Kunai with several inches of Kaisō nunoji tied to them.

Combat Data

Special Traits Jack of all Trades – Master of none Advanced Fuinjutsu/kenjutsu user Skilled in Genjutsu and Ninjutsu Medium-large chakra pool(7/10) Skilled actor and Tactitian Incredible Chakra control Mastery of the Sharingan While Kimiko at first, from the above, appears skilled in just about everything one must keep in mind that because of the broad scope of her skills, she has gained a series of skillsets that work well together, but not so well apart. More or less, the best way to exploit her is to make it so that she is not capable of utilizing some of her skills as eliminating any one of them from her arsenal will weaken her. Similarly, forcing her to utilize any one of her skills on its own will result in a drastic decrease in her combat proficiency. Additionally, it is of note that her chakra control and tactical abilities are primarily from the fact that she possesses the sharingan, rather than from innate ability. Name of Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan. Clan: Uchiha. Description: The Sharingan's abilities consist of two parts: the "Eye of Insight" (洞察眼, Dōsatsugan) and the "Eye of Hypnotism" (催眠眼, Saimingan). The first of the Sharingan's powers is being able to see the flow of chakra. The Sharingan itself gives colour to chakra, allowing the wielder to differentiate them. They are also able to tell if a person is under a genjutsu because the person's chakra flow would be irregular. The Sharingan's second-most prominent ability grants the user an incredible clarity of perception, allowing them to easily recognize genjutsu and different forms of chakra, though not to the same extent as the Byakugan. This also allows the user to pick up on subtle details, enabling them to read lip movements or mimic something like pencil movements. As the Sharingan evolves, gaining more tomoe, this ability extends to being able to track fast-moving objects before finally giving some amount of predictive capabilities to the user, allowing them to see the image of an attacker's next move from the slightest muscle tension in their body and counter-attack or dodge without any wasted movement. However, even though the user may be able to see an attack or know it is coming, their body may not always have time to react. The Sharingan's third and most well-known ability is that it grants the user the ability to copy almost any technique that he or she witnesses, apart from other kekkei genkai techniques. The user can memorise ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu with near-perfect accuracy, allowing the user to use the techniques as their own, or even modify them to create their own new techniques. In order to reproduce a copied technique, however, one must have the necessary skill or ability to perform them. In addition to physical skill and kekkei genkai techniques, the Sharingan cannot reproduce techniques dependent on other factors, such as summons that the user has not signed a contract with. The Sharingan's final commonly-used ability is capable of inducing a unique brand of hypnosis that involves suggesting actions and thoughts to the opponent through genjutsu cast by simple eye contact between both parties. More advanced Sharingan users can take the hypnosis ability even further to the point where a powerful summon or even a tailed beast may be controlled. The hypnotic ability coupled with the other aspects of the Sharingan can make the user appear as if they can "see the future". First, the user must perfectly mimic every move their opponent makes and possibly their thoughts and words through careful observation. Then, they suggest an action to the opponent such as hand seals for a technique that the opponent and Sharingan user already know and copy that. With these things done, the user can complete the action even before the opponent does, possibly using the Sharingan's genjutsu to confuse or delay them. As with other genjutsu, genjutsu cast by the Sharingan are capable of putting an opponent to sleep, inducing paralysis, replaying memories to someone else via genjutsu, or creating various illusions to deceive someone. The potency of the Sharingan's illusion is dependent on the user's knowledge and skill with implementing genjutsu. ========================================= Techniques: Possesses all E ranked techniques. Canon Jutsu Iatsu Sharingan(Coercion Sharingan) Genjutsu: Sharingan(Illusion Technique: Copy Wheel Eye) Magen: Kyō Tenchi-ten (Demonic Illusion: Mirror Heaven and Earth Change) Magen: Kasegui no Jutsu (Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique) Katon: Hōsenka Tsumabeni(Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Nail Crimson) Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu(Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire technique) Shikoku Fūin(Finger Carving Seal) Fūka Hōin(Fire Sealing Method) Nunoshibari no Jutsu(Cloth Binding Technique) Katon: Hibashiri(Fire Release: Running Fire) Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu(Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique) Generic Sealing Technique: This is a basic technique and should be counted as E rank. Kuchiyose: Raikō Kenka(Summoning: Lightning Flash Blade Creation): Linked to all weaponry and the palms of the user's hands in this case. The sealing formula has been slighly altered to allow activation via chakra. () Custom Jutsu Name of Technique: Kyūsokuna kon'yaku(_{急速な婚約} 'Rapid Engagement'). Type of Jutsu: Kekkei Ninjutsu. Rank: B. Range: N/A. Nature Type: Either Yin or none at all. Handseals: N/A. Description: A tricky technique, Kyūsokuna kon'yaku is essentially utilized to make it seem as if an Uchiha has not activated their sharingan. This is done by flowing chakra towards the eyes and allowing it to build up in small bunches along the way so it enters the eye in increments, rather than as a steady stream. This, as well as the intention to activate their eyes, causes the eyes to flicker or, if observed closely, activate and deactivate at such high sped that the doujutsu is never actually seen unless viewed by a specialized technique or another doujutsu. If utilized with yin affinity chakra, the user is capable of initiating powerful, or subtle, genjutsu upon anyone looking at their eyes even in a moment where the sharingan is not activated. Weakness: Doujutsu can discern that this technique is being utilized. Additionally, simply not looking at the Uchiha's eyes will allow someone to avoid getting caught in a genjutsu. This technique is not at all chakra taxing, but requires intense focus to maintain for long periods of time. ==================== Name of Technique: Katei jidō-ka no jutsu(_{過程自動化の術} 'Process Automation Technique'). Type of Jutsu: Fuinjutsu. Rank: S. Range: N/A. Nature Type: N/A. Handseals: N/A. Description: The activation of this technique, like many of Kimiko's seals, is done through flowing the user's chakra through the incription. In Kimiko's sake this inscription is in the form of a tattoo placed in the center of her back over her spine. Once activated via the above method the user can mould up to three jutsu into the seal at a time. Once a jutsu is moulded and placed within the seal, via the chakra entering it, the seal will allow the user to essentially recycle the technique without handseals or chakra moulding. This is achieved by the seal automating the aforementioned processes, hence its name, thus allowing techniques to be used immediately rather than needing preparation. Weakness: This technique is not entirely instantaneous, though it works faster or slower depending on the rank and complexity of the technique in question. Additionally, the more techniques are put into the seal the longer it will take to prepare one technique. Lastly, do note that the techniques will still cost the user chakra as they normally would. E and D ranked techniques are essentially instantaneous, whereas most C ranked and simple B ranked techniques take a second or two to activate. Complicated B rank techniques and A ranked techniques take 3-4 seconds and extremely complex A rank techniques take 5-6. S ranked techniques can be stored, but only one can be held in the seal at any given time and it can only be accompanied by a single low complexity C rank jutsu at best. A S ranked technique will typically take 3 seconds to activate if it is not stored with another, though it if another technique is stored it will take 7-10 seconds depending on complexity. ==================== Name of Technique: Fuin renketsu(_封印連結 'Seal Linking'). Type of Jutsu: Fuinjutsu. Rank: C. Range: Contact. Nature Type: N/A. Description: Used in most barrier techniques this allows the user to link one seal to another and even transmit overlaid seals from between the links. Additionally the user can create an area-of-effect by linking 2 or more seals. This can also be used to link 2 seals with chakra within and thus make a path for things -like vibrations- to travel through. This seal is inscribed on her palms and the bottoms of her feet, allowing her to place them simply by making contact with an object and instigating a slight influx of chakra into the seal. Weakness: The seal can be easily removed by damaging what it is on. She must make contact with either her body or her specialized tools to implement this seal onto a surface. The seal has the normal weakness of typical fuuinjutsu. ==================== Name of Technique: Yasashī shidō(_{優しい指導} 'Gentle Guidance'). Type of Jutsu: Shape-manipulation ninjutsu. Rank: D-A. Range: N/A. Nature Type: Variable. Handseals: 3. Description: This technique simply allows the user to gently guide their respective affinities by simply manipulating the chakra that makes them up. Weakness: Seal their ability to manipulate chakra and the user becomes incapable of using this technique. ==================== Name of Technique: Ten no homuramai(_天の炎舞 'Heaven flame dance'). Type of Jutsu: Nintaijutsu. Rank: C-B. Range: N/A. Nature Type: Lightning, Wind and fire. Handseals: 7. Description: After completing the necessary handseals the user channels lightning chakra throughout the body to amplify the user's reaction and physical speed. Once this is done, unlit fire chakra cloaks the body, particularly the lower body, from tail bone down. While the lightning amplifies her speed, the unlit fire chakra creates high pressure systems around her body, as well as releasing heat, and thus propulsion, in the opposite direction of Kimiko's movement. Kimiko can, using this combination, briefly ignite her fire chakra in bursts to send her to even greater speeds. She can utilize the pressure systems directly around her body to smooth out her bursts of movement and alter her trajectory smoothly. The speed that this allows is akin to the lightning release armor, in addition to small amount of speed, but minus a bit of its reaction time. The user may choose to ignore the cloak of fire, augmenting their blows with fire, or allowing them to send of blasts of flame. Weakness: Due to the user being surrounded by both wind and fire chakra, in addition to the lightning running through them, they are particularly sensitive to the water affinity technique. Beyond this they can still be predicted by doujutsu, though it becomes somewhat difficult for such to do so thus revealing that the peak of this technique is rather considerable. ==================== Name of Technique: Keiro soshi-ten(_{経路阻止点} 'Pathway Blocking Point'). Type of Jutsu: Fuinjutsu. Rank: B. Range: Contact. Nature Type: N/A. Handseals: 4. Description: An interesting technique, Keiro soshi-ten effectively acts like a strike from the gentle fist style in that once applied it blocks several of the victim's tenketsu. Tenketsu covered by the seal are all blocked as if by a blood clot, causing chakra to build up at these dams. After a minute or two pass, depending on how much chakra the victim attempts to utilize, the user's chakra system will reach its limit and the blocked paths will rupture. This causes the victim not only to lose large amounts of chakra, but to experience crippling pain in the localized area of the technique. It may also cause muscles to spasm as chakra floods into them beyond the user's control. Weakness: The seal will break after a certain amount of chakra has built up as the pressure acts about the same as overwhelming the seal with chakra. If the seal is damaged or removed it's effects are nullified. This seal requires some of the user's chakra to be stored within the seal in addition to the effort needed to create the seal. ==================== Name of Technique: Zōgen(_増減 'Fluctuation'). Type of Jutsu: Fuinjutsu. Rank: B. Range: Contact. Nature Type: N/A. Handseals: 3. Description: By studying and modifying the Gogyo Fuin, Kimiko has developed a technique that utilizes the concept of disrupting other seals and by extension chakra. Unlike the Gogyo Fuin, this technique disrupts chakra even if there are no other seals present on the victim. When it is placed on an individual it will impede the movement of chakra by disrupting the chakra pathways and causing them to fluctuate randomly. This makes it twice as difficult to utilize ninjutsu or to generally focus and control chakra. Weakness: If the seal is damaged it will be rendered useless. Additionally it can be removed by the Gogyo Kaiin. The seal can be disrupted by firing chakra into the seal from the outside or focusing it in the seal till it breaks. Breaking this seal by focusing chakra and overloading it is considerably difficult and will waste chakra due to the fact that the fluctuations make it hard to focus and direct chakra. ==================== Name of Technique: Kaisō sa reta setsuzoku(_{改装された接続} 'Refurbished connection'). Type of Jutsu: Fuinjutsu/Barrier Ninjutsu. Rank: A. Range: Contact. Nature Type: N/A. Handseals: 8. Description: By placing two seals, via her chakra, on two pieces of her specialized cloth and then ripping the cloth in half to separate the two, Kimiko can create a unique construct. The seals on these cloth, when activated, cause the cloth to become rigid and reconnect via chakra. These can be utilized to block attacks, set traps, or cut if someone is caught between the pieces of cloth when the chakra rushes from each to reconnect. Lastly, Kimiko can position pieces of cloth on someone's body, flattening them, allowing the chakra to wrap around them and bind them. Additionally, this technique can be utilized to cut the cloth into the shape of weapons, and then make them rigid utilizing chakra, thus making it an effective weapon. Weakness: Damage the seal on the cloth or incinerate the cloth. ==================== Name of Technique: Hatoriau(_{刃取り合う} 'Blade Scramble'). Type of Jutsu: Fuinjutsu/kenjutsu. Rank: A. Range: N/A. Nature Type: Lightning. Handseals: 10. Description: After utilizing the necessary handseals the seals on Kimiko's palms are altered slightly. Once this is done she can freely, and with blinding speed, switch Yogoshi junrei-sha between hands almost instantaneously. This allows her to almost wield her single weapon as if she had two, allowing her to attack in rapid and incredibly quick ways one after another. It should be noted that the user can also use this technique to change the position of the weapon in their hand. Weakness: Damage the seals or disarm her. ==================== Name of Technique: Sunpō sara-dai(_寸法更代 'Dimension Shift'). Type of Jutsu: Kekkei Genjutsu. Rank: S. Range: N/A. Nature Type: N/A. Handseals: 15. Description: A technique requiring plenty of handseals due to its complex nature, this genjutsu works by first mimicking the surrounding environment of the user, and once cast, the victim as well, and then super-imposing a near identical illusion over it, hiding reality from view by the thinnest shift of perception. However, due to the subtle nature of this technique it is incredibly difficult to detect even for doujutsu holders as it even mimicks the status of chakra systems and the like in reality, making discernment via that method difficult. This technique, allegedly, can only be broken via sheer strength of will. Actions taken in the genjutsu by the victim are carried out in reality, and mimicked simultaneously in the illusion via their mind. If eye contact is made she can skip the slight wavering that this genjutsu typically causes. Weakness: The user is incapable of fast movement during the use of this technique, but can indeed move. Additionally the technique is chakra taxing, taking more chakra the longer it is active. When initially activated, the surroundings of the victim will briefly waver as if there is gas in the air, or a sufficient heat change. ==================== Name of Technique: Tengoku-jigoku mai - junrei-sha gisō(_{天国 - 地獄舞 - 巡礼者偽装} 'Heaven-hell dance - Pilgrim Impersonation'). Type of Jutsu: Kekkei Ninjutsu/Fuinjutsu/Kenjutsu. Rank: D-S. Range: 8 meter radius. Nature Type: Fire, Wind and/or Lightning Handseals: 2-4-6-8-12. Description: Utilizing Yogoshi junrei-sha, Kimiko channels chakra throughout its form, imbuing the cloth about its shaft each with a single modified Fūka Hōin fuinjutsu. This is done within 3 seconds per seal, taking a total of 9 seconds for all three. Once it is utilized she channels chakra through each of the free hanging clothes at the base of the shaft. Using the sharingan she moulds three different chakras at once, conducting lightning into one scarf, wind into another, and fire into the third. A varied amount of chakra can be sent into these clothes depending on the handseals utilized. If only 2, each cloth will gain a D rank amount of elemental chakra; if 4 it will gain C rank amounts; if 6 it will gain B rank amounts; if 8 it will gain A rank amounts; and finally if 12 it will gain S rank amounts of chakra. Once the chakra is implemented Kimiko infuses the first of Fūka Hōin with Katon: Hibashiri(Fire Release: Running Fire) and a fire focused Yasashī shidō--the other two are then infused with a wind and lightning focused Yasashī shidō. This completes the technique's preparation, though most of these steps can be done in the midst of battle and one at a time if necessary. Once the preparations have been completed Kimiko will typically launch into close quarters combat, first releasing running fire in a larger radius than normal, the ring of fire's height will be higher the more chakra is imputted into the technique. Its peak height is 20 meters where it actually curves and twists inwards into a cone-like shape. As Kimiko continues combat, she releases the second technique, typically lightning, which tends to start as static at its weakest, but will be full on stunning lightning at its strongest. This lightning will whirl around inside of the area, either directed by Kimiko, or randomly sparking about. The final technique is eventually released causing the flames to roar to new strengths, and at this point Kimiko's body is coated with a layer of protective chakra. Kimiko will attempt to land a final volley of strikes with her weapon, either for direct cutting action, or after retreating behind the flames. If she retreats a smoke bomb will be thrown down, obscuring the victims sight as she strikes from multiple directions in rapid succession with Yogoshi. The techniques that had been released become linked to the movement of Yogoshi via the scarves, causing them to mimic the movements. The end result is typically a carbonized, electrocuded, and terribly eviscerated corpse at its best. At its weakest the technique will leave minor burns, an electrical stun effect, and the cuts from wind and Kimiko's blade. Weakness: This technique, executed at S rank and if it is allowed to reach its final state is effectively impossible to block, dodge, or deflect due to the amount of attacks being sent at the user and their elemental variety. However, should someone disrupt the technique before it has been fully executed/prepared they can spare themselves from its final results entirely, simultaneously depriving Kimiko of a large quantity of her chakra.

Aww man, that's unfortunate Phoenix, good luck man, I hope it works itself out somehow.

_{Woot I figured out that you can use the header2(h2) tag for a linebreak, ain't that neat?} So I'm working on Kimiko Uchiha and getting her done. I'm also rereading the IC today so as to get up posts for at least two of my characters. I also thought it was of note that I have some minor dental surgery tomorrow (getting my wisdom teeth removed) so I may be a bit...out of it for a bit after that. I will very likely still be around, but no guarantees that I'll be at my best ^^; So yeah. There's my prior notice. Just keep in mind that Lost can review characters/make some decisions/help inform about stuff if Ganryu and I are not available (though I still will be for sure).

From Stardust, To Stardust

I feel like my post was quite short but it'll work. FYI, when I post stuff in Italics, consider it future details to work with. the IF you choose to go that route, its what you would expect to see in that situation.

For the lols

A typical Karaut on a talk show XD

@Monkeypants

It indeed works for me. I have replied ^_^ I added a pic of the Legion ship, as it would indeed be white-ish/silver, the onyl difference being the formation of a raised circular bit, with windows in its sides. Oh and the ship would undoubtedly be shimmering/shifting slightly as if its surface was moving (which it is). That was rather enjoyable to write, hehe. I wonder how their encounters with other nations will go, even though this one has just started it's already intriguing me quite a bit.

The Legion Collective

Trade lane 875 I-W.

Noting the three warships far before they came into the radius of their visual scanners, Legion noted the change in the flow of space traffick so as to avoid their form, but not in such a way as to flee. Considering the trajectory of the warships, they were headed in their direction, but were clearly not going to open fire in the midst of their own lane. With this in their minds, the Collective began its work while the ships closed the distance, the internal structure of their ship rearranging somewhat as they waited. The biological members of Legion had been awoken and after they'd stretched and eaten, an activity which was done more through the absorption of nutrients and a form of processed energy stored by the ship, they headed to what was becoming the ship's Bridge. It was at this time that the warships would have closed the distance and began relaying varies messages, which the Collective almost immediately decoded and processed throughout both their ship's systems and their planetary ones, all of which were quantumly linked. After several short seconds they had almost fully organized the statements into different languages, drawn links between them, and noted the nature of the message itself. However, so as not to intimidate they waited several minutes, the outer portions of the ship shifting slightly so as to reveal windows, layered with null fields and energy shields, for their biological kin. By the time the ship had finished its shifting a minute would have passed and it was two minutes later that a return message was sent in every language stating roughly as follows, as one--no matter their technology and intelligence, cannot glean the entirety of a language from a single phrase, "Greetings. No attacking. Peace" this was followed by a series of raw code of a simplified nature from their own systems, which, when translated, it asked for more language samples. While Legion could have simply utilized this code to communicate, they preferred not to, and so made their simple request. Hopefully the computers of the warships were capable enough to decode their message.

The Legion Ship

From Stardust, To Stardust

Normally I'd have posted more, but I wasn't sure what else to put, so yeah...that. Monkeypants, was it your trade nation they'd be contacting? I think it was, you said they'd likely get greeted/encountered by a patrol or whathaveyou. I sure hope so, otherwise I'm not certain how to initiate contact ^^;

From Stardust, To Stardust

The Legion Collective

Having sent out what amounted to a small exploratory fleet, composed of what would appear one ship, Legion had decided to once again seek out other species. Curious beings by nature, the Collective wished to discover more, to research the biological nature of other races, and the inner workings of their governmental structures. Doing so was an idea that greatly intrigued Legion, and so it was with jubilation that one of their exploratory ships detected activity. Without any hesitation the ship, appearing as a massive capital-class craft, exited its quantum tunnel at the edge of a highly trafficked zone of space. Upon exiting the tunnel the vessel activated its defensive fields and extended its quantum communication relay range outwards in an attempt to begin decoding and translating the language of those within the nearby space. If they were lucky, they might even be contacted directly.

Yes they are allowed and yes you can make a Tatasuko ^_^ Feel free to consult me in regards to what their Kekkei genkai is capable of as it is quite complicated. Nonetheless I'm always open to helping people understand it. Plus you can always be a younger Tatasuko so that you can learn ICly how it works :P
