Why so blue? (Aoko's Jutsu)

Name: Winterborn.
Classification: Taijutsu.
Rank: D
Class: Passive.
Range: Self.

Description: Through training and exposure, the user has learned to conserve body heat and energy (because Winter is Coming... wait, wrong setting.) They can endure cold, wet weather of natural origin as if it was as warm as a moderate summer day, and have learned to subsist on the absolute minimum consumption for survival, capable of going for days longer than ordinary shinobi without food before needing to recover.

Name: Wubstep.
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D
Class: Defensive.
Range: Short.

Description: Wubstep is a sharp, high traction footwork technique where the soles of the user's feet seem to skate lightly along the surface of the ground without losing their footing, creating a slightly squeaky 'wub' noise as a result of the movements in indoor environments. When performed out of doors it is usually silent.

Name: Junsuina Style: Reserved Archery. (sig)
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: D-S.
Class: Supplementary/Passive.
Range: Long.

Description: A technique designed for Aoko in her search to master the Junsuina style, where she learns to focus her chakra control exclusively on her archery. Once learned, she is no longer capable of using or learning Nin or Genjutsu outside of archery and Junsuina style techniques. In exchange, they gain the ability to use Kyujutsu techniques up to their own rank at no chakra cost, and can reduce the costs of Kyujutsu of 1-rank above their own by 1-rank, greatly improving their longevity on the battlefield. Both of these effects cap at S-rank jutsu.

Name: Junsuina Custom Style: Backhand Shooting
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary.
Range:

Description: A supplementary extension to the foundations of the Junsuina Style which requires the user to first learn the Reserved Archery technique. By applying chakra to the bow through their dominant hand, they are capable of using the chakra used in the production of arrows to draw and fire their bow with a single hand, leaving a hand free for other purposes. Due to the efficiency of this technique, when both hands are actually applied to Junsuina techniques, they are treated as if the user's strength was a tier higher than it really is.

Approved

Name: Junsuina Style: Flicker Fingers.
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Self.

Description: An advanced application of the Backhand Shooting technique, Flicker Fingers relies on a combination of chakra control and deft finger movements to increase the user's ability to fire arrows quickly. Due to the minimum amount of movement required, Aoko is capable of manipulating her bow as if her speed was a tier higher than it really is.


Name: Junsuina Style: Charged Shot.
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: D-S.
Class: Supplementary/Offensive.
Range: Long.

Description: By keeping a steady flow of chakra in her bowstring through the use of the Backhanded Shooting technique, Aoko is capable of gradually building up a charge which she can later release to increase the power of a single jutsu or attack. Every time Aoko performs a Kyujutsu technique, she stores an amount of energy equal to 1-rank below the technique used, capping at an amount of energy equal to 1-rank above the user's own. She can then, at any time, declare an attack to commit this energy to, raising the parameters (strength, speed, penetration, and any additional unique effects) of that jutsu to a rank equal to the stored energy. Once used, this energy is reset to 0 and must be built up again.

Name: Junsuina Style: Bass Drop.
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Long.

Description: By slightly tweaking the nature of her arrows towards the gravity affinity, Aoko is capable of causing arrows to produce a low hum, punctuated by heartbeat-like throbbing. Arrows created in such a manner linger for 3 posts, serving as an annoying distraction and a convenient cover against those who would rely on tracking the body's natural rhythms.

Name: Junsuina Style: Internal Compass.
Classification: Dojutsu.
Rank: D-S
Class: Passive.
Range: Variable.

Description: A technique that at first seems contradictory; Internal Compass is a dojutsu which allows the user to 'see' everything within their field of vision upon closing their eyes, even piercing concealment and illusionary techniques up to the user's rank, though this also limits her to 'seeing' objects moving at a speed equal or below her rank while active. This is done through perceiving gravitational fields produced by all things. Many find this technique disconcerting to use at first, as it blends the line between opened and closed eyes and makes the user look a little eccentric...

Name: Junsuina Style: Responsive Shooting.
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary/Offensive.
Range: Short.

Description: A technique used for quickly activating other Junsuina style techniques at short ranges, working with the principles of Backhand Shooting - though it reduces the range of the technique in question to short, it allows the Junsuina practitioner to fire effectively at near point blank ranges in an instant, increasing the attack's speed by a 1-rank.

Name: Junsuina Style: Long Odds.
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary/Offensive.
Range: Long.

Description: A technique that is effectively the polar opposite of the Responsive Shooting technique. Kyujutsu fired with this technique gradually pick up speed over distances and are 1-rank slower at close ranges, move at normal speeds at medium range, and are increased in speed by 1-rank at long ranges, making it an effective long-range sniping style.


Name: Junsuina Style: Heavy Handed.
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: C.
Class: Offensive.
Range: Long.

Description: A technique used to add a twist to the traditional Junsuina Style: Chakra Arrow. Arrows created with this technique are tinted with the Gravity element, and apply a 'weight' to things that they hit equal to the rank of the practitioner. In addition to the effects of ordinary Junsuina techniques, those with a strength 1-rank lower than the rank of the weight are pressed into the ground, those with a strength equal to the rank of the weight are immobilized, and those of a strength greater than the weight are left unimpeded.

Name: Sky High. (Sig)
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D
Class: Defensive/Offensive.
Range: Short->Super long.

Description: A secret technique of the Kaozaki family that stretches back to... well, it's new, okay?... where the user responds to someone behind them, grabbing and throwing them in a manner that leaves them as a twinkle in the sky with a unique rotation. Due to the strangely comical nature of this technique, very little actual damage is inflicted.

Name: Junsuina Style: Gravity Rush.
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: D-S
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Long.

Description: A fighting style used for tinting Aoko's arrows with gravity-based chakra to increase their speed. Junsuina techniques used with this ability have their speed increased by a single rank and have a faint greyish colouration. These arrows also allow her to produce other gravity techniques up to her own rank spontaneously without having to declare them in advance, allowing for a greater degree of versatility and surprise.

Name: Junsuina Style: Punch Drunk.
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: C
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Long.

Description: Yet another in Aoko's gravity-arrow line, Punch Drunk allows Aoko to alter another technique with a special property designed to throw off the center of gravity for those she strikes. For every ten times Aoko's arrows strike an opponent, reducing by 2 for every rank beyond Academy student (8 at Genin, 6 at Chuunin, 4 at Jonin, 2 at Sannin) the opponent's ability to respond effectively drops, lowering their speed and reaction (should they have it) by one rank.

Approved

Name: Junsuina Style: Steady Shot.
Classification: Kyujutsu
Rank: D
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Medium.

Description: A simple shooting technique that can be used alone or as a supplementary aspect of another Kyujutsu technique, requiring the use of the Backhand Shooting technique. Steady Shot is a technique where the user produces an arrow (or more, as may be the case in the case of it's supplementary use) of either the normal or chakra variety and smoothly fires it, the accuracy unimpaired by things such as poor footing, unusual momentum or weather conditions.

Name: Junsuina Style: Sharpshooter's Intuition. (Sig)
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-S.
Class: Passive.
Range: Self.

Description: An internal sense of danger developed by those who extensively practice the arts of striking from afar. When targetted by ranged attacks from a target up to the user's rank, they become instinctively aware of the threat and the general direction of it's origin. This ability is refined at the Genin level to point straight towards the threat, and at the Chuunin level and above can precisely calculate distance. Jonin and above can also determine obstacles it has passed through by the flight of the projectile in question.

Name: Whispering Winter.
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D
Class: Defensive.
Range: Short.

Description: A technique rooted in the Strike of Disgrace technique, where the user's drawn sword carries the same absurdly subtle speed. Drawing her sword to block or deflect an attack, Aoko sheathes it again instantly, the gesture as smooth as if she had never moved.

Name: Winter Sunrise.
Classification: Kenjutsu/Kyujutsu
Rank: D-C
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short-Med

Description: Though a common concept in swordsmanship, the deflection of light with one's sword is more delicate than most people think. Bending gravity slightly in order to optimize it's effectiveness, the user directs light harshly into the opponent's eyes, blinding them for a single turn. This effect bends around visual impediments (such as glasses) at Genin and above. When used with an arrow of the gravity attribute, this technique can be used as Kyujutsu as well as Kenjutsu, increasing it's versatility.

Name: Fang of the Wren
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D-SSS
Class: Offensive
Range: Short.

Description: A simple swordsmanship technique designed for equal efficiency against both humans and wild creatures, where the user strikes sharply for the joints, the portion of the body least often protected by things such as tough hide or armor. The movement of the attack is impossible to follow for those with a speed inferior to that of the user, though it is an otherwise straightforward and unimpressive technique.

Name: Flight of the Wren
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D
Class: Defensive.
Range: Short.

Description: Despite it's name, the Flight of the Wren is a simple, straightforward technique where the user smoothly jumps to avoid another attack. What elevates this above ordinary movement is it's ease of use, as Aoko can perform it so long as she is touching something solid with any part of her body, spring-boarding herself with as little as a lone toe or finger.

Approved

Name: Killing Intent [Chibi Version.]
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Long

Description: Killing Intent is simply the user exuding pure killing intention, and having it affect their opponent, themselves, and others around them, up to the point of paralysing them with fear. When the Killing Intent is particularly strong, it can even give the victim visions of their own gruesome death. This can cause killing intent to be confused with a genjutsu, despite it not being a technique at all. Aoko's killing intent is uncanny in that it is tinted in her whimsical nature. The conflicting elements of innocence and raw violence are so chilling in their contrast that those of 4-ranks below find their bodies losing the strength to move and collapsing. Those 3-ranks below feel the artificial sensation of asphyxiation, feeling as if they are unable to breathe until retreating, an effect which knocks out the body after 3 posts. This is especially jarring for those of the Zireh races, as their bodies are unused to the unnatural sensation of faux-suffocation, finding it even more distressing and can only withstand 2 posts. Those 2-ranks below her are dazed for a single post, unable to move their bodies, though those of 1-rank below or her own rank merely witness their own death in a terrifying detailed moment

Name: Junsuina Style: Orchestra of Arrows. (sig)
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: D-S.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: All Ranges.

Description: Orchestra of Arrows is a technique where the user creates a series of strings of chakra along their bow, greatly increasing the amount of arrows that can be produced at one time by producing additional firing sources, as if they were firing multiple bows at once. This is based on, and can be used in conjunction with, the Backhand Archery style, allowing the strings to be manipulated by the very chakra they are constructed of. The amount of additional strings begins with 1 at Academy Student and increases by 1 for every rank after, allowing the user to produce additional Kyujutsu attacks for every string struck in a single drawing movement.

Name: Junsuina Style: Drilling Shooting. (sig)
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: C
Class: Passive.
Range: All Ranges.

Description: By placing a unique rotation on her chakra, a Junsuina practitioner is capable of producing arrows with a spin that increases their penetrating properties as they spiral and drill through most ordinary defenses. Arrows fired in this manner have their piercing properties increased by a single rank.

Approved

Name: Junsuina Style: Smothering Shot.
Classification: Kyujutsu.
Rank: C
Class: Supplementary.
Range: All Ranges / Area of Effect.

Description: A technique designed to be added on to those which produce multiple arrows at once. When such a technique is used, a special gravitational field is formed between them which muffles all sound for 2 posts, making it difficult to hear within the area and impossible to hear sounds created inside the area from the outside.


Name: True Flight of the Wren.
Classification: Taijutsu.
Rank: C
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Short.

Description: Am advanced version of the Flight of the Wren technique utilizing the user's control over gravity. This technique allows the user to momentarily treat even open air as if it was a solid object, allowing her to 'jump' again in mid air as if she was pressing off an actual surface.


Name: Blackest Curse of the Parrot. (sig)
Classification: Taijutsu.
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Self.

Description: An odd quirk of Aoko's childish nature, where she has learned to imitate voices that she has heard before at least once. The proficiency of this ability increases the more she has heard someone. She can perform impressions sufficient to trick the unwary or unfamiliar almost instantly, and after a few minutes of listening she is capable of impersonating someone (at least vocally) perfectly.
