Arashi Clan

Taifū (Ruling Branch) - Over two-hundred and twenty five years ago the collective group of families which would later come to comprise the Taifū came into existence. Through careful breeding and the actions of prominent members they became quite well vested in politics and using the acheivements of a Ryuujin Arashi the 4th Tetakage of Ibaragakure their rule progressed. After the events of the war when the members of all the Kages's immediate families were hunted down and executed their rule became absolute and now an Arashi within the clan doesn't make a move without the Taifū knowing about it. Despite their influence they are the token minority with 11 percent of Arashi being from this bloodline.
*Are the only ones capable of learning all 8 Storm Variations.
-Only the "Royal" Bloodline within the Taifū are capable of manifesting the Uzugan.
(Requires a Dice roll of anything above 90 bar 100; 90-99 for Taifu & 100 for "Royal")

Tatsumaki (Warrior Branch) - Originally comprising of the various families of Arashi who were skilled at the shinobi arts after the Taifū's rise to power the Tatsumaki became an established branch intermarrying with other clanless shinobi primarily Nova and clanless humans to strengthen their bloodline. They comprise the majority of shinobi from the clan and enjoy higher clan privledges and even a spot on the Arashi Auxillary Council if their achievements for the clan are prominent enough. Just 25 percent of Arashi make up this branch
*Are capable of learning the Secondary Storm Variations only.
-Only the "Elite" Bloodline within the Tatsumaki possess the Kazama Curse Seal.
(Requires a Dice roll of anything between 64-89; 64-84 for Tatsumaki & 85-89 for "Elite" Bloodline Tatsumaki)

Kumo (Common Branch) - Originally comprising of the various families of Arashi who were civilians, married to civilians or , being members of the clan despite not going into the shinobi field personally as well as dropping out early. They learned how to produce things for the clan and when the Taifū rose to power they were mixed with those mix breed Arashi from the rare results of an Arashi producing a child that was partially Zireh. Despite this they have 64 percent of Arashi are Kumo causing them to make the vast majority of clan.
*Are capable of learning the Primary Storm Variations only.
(Requires a Dice roll of anything below 65)

In terms of organization each of the Branches adhere to the rules set by the Arashi Council which is comprised of the Clan Head, 2 Taifū Advisors, the Clan Heir, the 9 Storms of the Arashi which are all members of the clan who have obtained the highest mastery of a particular storm type, making 13 members in total. Usually they decide the fate of the entire clan however when particularly important topics are up for discussion the Auxiliary Council which is comprised of, as well as up to 20 additional members typically being Tatsumaki or influential Kumo making the entire Arashi Council being 33 members in total.

Storm Release (Water + Lightning): In essence is the creation, manipulation, and harnessing of storm clouds as well as the weather that results due to these storm clouds. In it's most basic version the Arashi Clan member produces pearly white Nimbus which grant varying abilities typically revolving around concealment, fog generation, increased moisture in the air, vision obscuring properties due to the thickness of clouds as well as the ability to make Nimbus tangible and intangible at will to allow things to pass through them.
Requirements: Academy Rank 1 C-rank Lightning Technique, 1 C-rank Water ninjutsu. +100 word Element Training.

There are 7 Known variations of Storm Release all of which are native to the Arashi Clan, each pertaining to a color in the rainbow, however their exists an 8th which is only possible due to the Uzugan Dojutsu while their are rumors of 3 more which have not yet been proven due to requiring Lightning Release not native to the Arashi Clan to test said theories.

The Storms are seperated into 4 categories:
Primary Variations = Which comprise the earliest storms known to the Arashi Clan; Firestorm, Rainstorm, Thunderstorm & Snowstorm.
Secondary Variations = Which comprise of the more recent storms known to the Arashi Clan; Galestorm, Duststorm, Geomagneticstorm
Uzugan Exclusive = Which currently is only comprised of Heatstorm.
Tempest Variations = Which comprise of the rumored variations as a result of unique variations of lightning release not native to the Arashi Clan due to being combined with Raiden's Lightning. The functional names are; Lux Tempest, Umbra Tempest & Canus Tempest.

Each of the variations have their own balance the Primary Variations are weaker when faced up against the Secondary variations, the Tempest variations are stronger when faced up against the Primary & Secondary variations while the Uzugan exclusive is neutral across the board.

*Firestorms are weak to Rainstorms which are weak to Hailstorms which are weak to Thunderstorms which are weak to Firestorms.
*Galestorms are weak to Duststorms which are weak to Geomagneticstorms which are weak to Galestorms.
*Lux Tempest & Umbra Tempest cancel each other out while Canus Tempest is strong against both.

Firestorm Release: (Water + Red Lightning)
Rainstorm Release: (Water + Blue Lightning)
Thunderstorm Release: (Water + Yellow Lightning)
Snowstorm Release: (Water + Indigo Lightning)
Galestorm Release: (Water + Green Lightning)
Duststorm Release: (Water + Orange Lightning)
Geomagneticstorm Release: (Water + Purple Lightning)
Heatstorm Release: (Uzugan Required)
Lux Tempest: (Water + White Lightning) [Locked]
Umbra Tempest: (Water + Black Lightning) [Locked]
Canus Tempest: (Water + Gray Lightning) [Locked]

*Primary Variations can be learned at Academy Rank however require 1 D-rank Water & 1 D-rank Lightning release technique to be learned in addition to a 125 word weekly training topic to obtain mastery of it. The word count doubles with each new Primary Variation learned.
*Secondary Variations can be learned at Genin Rank however require 1 C-rank Water & 1 C-rank Lightning Release technique to be learned in addition to a 250 word weekly training topic to obtain mastery of it. The word count doubles with each new Primary Variation learned.
*Heatstorms are a natural ability gained upon acquiring the Uzugan even if transplanted the user will gain Storm Release albeit only being able to utilize just Heatstorms if they aren't an Arashi.
*Tempest Variations can be learned at Chunin Rank however require not only the ability to harness Raiden's Lightning in at least one of the three variations it comes in but likewise 1 B-rank Water & 1 B-rank Lightning Release technique to be learned in addition to a 500 word weekly training topic to obtain mastery of it.

Note: Arashi Clan Members who possess the Uzugan are unable to gain the Kekkei Tota, however one can obtain both the Uzugan & the Kekkei Tota at the cost of being unable to Awaken.

Name: Uzugan (Maelstrom Eye)
Classification: Single Stage Dojutsu
Type: Kekkei Genkai (Activation Price collected once, Duration Price collected each post total)
Activation: -5 Fatigue. Every 25% Power Ration costs an -1 Fatigue caps at -4 Fatigue loss
Appearance:

Spoiler:

Description: The Uzugan (Maelstrom Eye) was originally created through a mutation due to it's originator Devin U. Arashi's mixed heritage, her child would inherit the powerful dojutsu with it having mutated yet again stabilizing into it's true form rather than it's original mutated one. The Uzugan stems from four composite Dojutsu, and in it's initial form contained certain abilities from all of them, now however some of it's original abilities have been lost and others remolded to be unique to the Uzugan in question. This dojutsu has four abilities all of which are available upon manifesting and it has no evolved forms, instead upon becoming active it causes the user's eyes pupils to turn a shade of purple with numerous patterns within them centering around a sun-like pattern in the center which serves as the focus of the user's vision. The Uzugan's abilities each revolve around a specific band on the active dojutsu each work together to provide the user with amplified perception and vision however the user of the dojutsu is capable of reducing the power to their dojutsu in order to lower the drain it has on them. In order to activate it requires -5 Fatigue and each post (total) the user has it active it drains a varying amount of fatigue from their fatigue limit depending on the Power Ratio (Caps at -4 each post (total) at 100%).
*Outer Rim - The outer rim is capable of detecting flow or more specifically the displaced substances caused by a targets moment through a set fluid. This grants the user Displacement Sensory which dependent on the fluid can either give rise to Wind Displacement Sensory or Water Displacement Sensory whether the target is in air or underwater. The power of this vision depends on the user's age as it becomes more powerful the older the user is starting at being able to track D-rank speeds through displacement when the user is born. Every 5 years after that it increases it's power by 1-rank capping out at the age of 30 by being able to detect displaced speeds of Echoing Flash. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% Cost = -1 Additional Fatigue
*Middle Rim - The middle rim is capable of analyzing techniques which utilize chakra that the user is able to see used in battle allowing them to accurately detect the elemental affinity(s) if any, rank and cost required to use it, it does not however analyze the effects of the technique nor allow the user to replicate it. It simply acts to determine the strength of techniques used in battle in order to assist the user with determining the threat of an attack. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% = -1 Additional Fatigue
*Inner Rim - The Uzugan grants the user Storm Release, in particular Heat Clouds however it's user's are unable to learn the original Cloud Types available to the Arashi Clan namely Blaze, Thunder, Ice & Dust. When the Uzugan is active Heat Nimbus are constantly produced by the user depending on their skill level and can be manipulated at will to utilize Storm Release techniques involving Heat Nimbus without the use of hand seals. The number of Heat Nimbus produced is 1 each post (total) with each rank up increasing it's total by 1 (cap of 5). The maximum amount of Heat Nimbus that can be on the field at one time also caps out at various levels depending on the users skill level starting at 10 at D-rank capping at 50 at S-rank, similar to the Nimbus produced by the Arashi Clan these clouds serve as Materia for the use of Storm Release techniques. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% = -1 Additional Fatigue
*Sun Pupil - The sun Pupil causes the user to develop a secondary conciousness known as The Personality who is capable of maintaining the functions of the Uzugan and their Storm Release techniques. This conciousness serves as a secondary mental defense as when active this dojutsu now becomes capable of breaking out of genjutsu equal to their skill level, the personality becomes more powerful the higher the overall power ratio to the dojutsu is as it manages each one independently of the user. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% = -1 Additional Fatigue
Dojutsu Power Ratio - Personality Effect
25% - None (Activation)
50% -  Chakra Flow is able to be detected when displaced outside of a target's body (Aka chakra used externally not internally).
75% - The Speed of Heat Cloud manipulation is equal to the displacement tracking speed of the user.
100% - Analyzing extends to cover not only just chakra using techniques but techniques which use chakra in addition to other prices.

Note: Arashi Clan Members who possess the Kazama Curse Mark are unable to gain the Kekkei Tota, however one can obtain both the Kazama Curse Mark & the Kekkei Tota at the cost of being unable to Awaken.

The Kazama Curse Mark is the direct result of Saeko U. Arashi obtaining a mutation of the Curse Seal Ryuujin Arashi possessed or more specifically the Origin Curse Seal her own skilled use of the juinjutsu mixed with the instability of the Storm Release Kekkei Genkai resulting in this. Members who possess the Kazama Curse Mark may or may not possess the ability to harness chakra however their use of storm release differs from the norms of the clan. Instead they are able to trigger transformations altering their bodies bio-chemical state due to the latent Juinjutsu they collectively inherited into forms most suited towards the type of Storm used. Despite stemming from the notoriously difficult to control Origin Curse Seal the Kazama Curse Mark is easier to harness in battle without being consumed by the rage/bloodlust of it's progenitor and comprises a 2 Stage Curse Seal with a third stage if the Cosmic Release Kekkei Tota is obtained.

The Arashi Clan was created directly after the events of the 5th Great Shinobi World War, it's creation a result of initial experiments to harvest the elemental diversity of the Chakra Beasts by humanity. Multiple tests were done during before and during the course of the war but it was only thanks to constant abductions thanks to the severity of the war that a diverse enough selection of test subjects were able to be gathered to result in a successful breakthrough. The subject named Tenjin after the mythical storm deity that was worshipped during said time. Tenjin was the only one to survive who gave favorable enough results having been able to seemingly generate clouds which agitated which the scientists named Nimbus. Sure enough Tenjin was utilized as breeding stock in attempts to replicate his abilities and these were successful with his offspring being aged rapidly in order to be viable test subjects. Eventually these test subjects managed to rebell against their creators with Tenjin's son Fujin deciding to name the group of 35 sibling test subjects the Arashi Clan in memory of their sire.

The Arashi Clan in particular similar to other clans produced during that time-period were created in response to the Chakra Beast threat and as a result the unique Storm Release was modified specifically to not trigger the Element assimilation abilities of the chakra beasts. It was due to this, with help from their long time allies the Kukinorite Clan which likewise were created to counter Chakra Beasts along with other newly created clans humanity succeeded in making the chakra beasts extinct. Despite their original purpose, perhaps due to knowing of their mixed origins as well as holding on to the fact that they were at some point test subjects, the Arashi clan always had close ties to Nova often intermarrying with Soulless in particular fairly early on despite the initial stigma associated with them. This resulted in a further evolution of the Arashi Clan bloodline granting them a boosted chakra reserves and a weakened immunity from genjutsu gained from their Nova relatives.

Though not nearly as common as it was previously during the early formative years of the clan it is still common for an Arashi not marrying within the clan to end up with a Nova often a Soulless or an Inkan with the Water & Lightning release natures with absolutely no stigma attached to doing such. Due to their rich history with Nova they are perhaps one of the most friendly towards them and it is almost unheard of to find an Arashi clan member who is racist towards them simply due to the fact that often they either have relatives or or descended from a Nova somewhere in their lineage. In recent years after their move from Ibaragakure to Shigakure to be with their long time allies the Kukinorite Clan and both villages destruction the Arashi took to wandering becoming mercenaries lingering in the various islands in the Shinobi World. Despite their newly nomadic lifestyle they are still close knit simply deciding they wished for freedom and autonomy more than associating with one of the established territories. Now Arashi typically work as guides, mercenaries, explorers and navigators on ships using their natural affinity towards storms and weather conditions to find their way through the world at large.

Comes in two versions either fitted which is made to fit the user's body but prevents wearing a Flak Jacket underneath and loose which is made loose enough that one can wear a Flak Jacket underneath. There is a harness on the back either to hold a single 2 handed weapon (Arashi Bow) or 2 one handed weapons (Arashi Club) arranged in an X-pattern. On the left and right sides of the jacket on the hips are slots specifically for a single projectile accelerator with the handle facing outward to be easily drawn with the opposite hand. Inside the jacket their are four slots arranged in rows of 2 each meant for an Arashi Shuriken to be placed with in on either side resulting in 8 total capable of being stored at once. Similar to the Arashi Reinforced Pants these slots can be instead filled with an Arashi Blade resulting in a total of 4 (1 can be stored for every 2 Arashi Shuriken slots). If the Hood is attached their is a small pocket either on the left or right side which can be used to store pill consumables for quick access.

*A composite bow made from Kelbi horn with both wings being sharpened so as to be used to impale those who get to close, drawstring is made from Kelbi Sinew and Latex to give it elasticity as well as strength to prevent from snapping. It is primarily made to be drawn without strength tiers taking time to draw into place over a period of posts (total) before releasing launching the arrow at speeds dependent on how much time it took to draw the bow. Chakra can be cycled into the bow in order to speed up the process just like strength can be used to quickly draw the bow however when strength or/& is used while taking ones time to draw the bowstring back the true strength of the bow is realized. This bow can launch arrows at B speed when drawn with speed tiers, can launch arrows at A-rank speed via chakra or strength with a 50 percent chance of snapping (Dice Roll) and finally at A-rank speed with strength tiers while taking ones time to draw the bow back with no chance of snapping. In order to draw the bow it requires 3 posts (total) per rank of speed, when strength/chakra are used it can be drawn and fired instantly however when taking ones time with strength it requires 2 post (total) per rank of speed. When strength & chakra are used at the same time it requires 1 post (total) per rank of speed. This bow is fairly conductive of electricity being capable of acting like a lightning rod to B-rank and below Lightning Release techniques discharging them out from the pointed wings of the bow or if currently drawn the gathered electricity cycles around the bow at B-rank speed being discharged upon contact or when the drawstring is released to attach Lightning Release damage to a fired arrow. This bow can only be purchased by "Elite" Bloodline Tatsumaki Branch Arashi clan members however it is gifted upon becoming an S-rank Hunter Nin to Branch Arashi Clan members.

* Using unrefined Maelstrite results in an imperfect storage of a Nimbus in which once stored within the Nimbus Cloud is unable to be removed only to be destroyed when the arrow is also destroyed. The feather attached allows it to fly straight when not guided by the Arashi Clan member to increase it's accuracy. Despite this imbuing the arrows with a Nimbus allows an Arashi clan member to alter the trajectory of the fired arrows while in motion. Due to being made from Kelbi Bone each arrow is capable of conducting electricity as well as being able to reroute weak lightning release techniques towards them as long as they are D-rank or below. When fired from the Arashi Bow which has already accumulated a charge if the electricity is above a D-rank the arrow discharges the electricity upon impacting something destroying the arrow in the process. The arrows are fairly heavy and when launched through the air they are capable of piercing through other arrows with weigh lighter than them as long as they are not fired with strength at the cost of lowering it's speed by 1-rank. If fired with strength/chakra however it can pierce through the other arrow without a speed reduction.

*The Arashi Tomahawk is the weapon of the Clan Head of the Arashi Clan only he/she and Royal Bloodline of the Taifū Branch are permitted to use it and while the clan head is awarded it upon accepting the title the others must purchase it from the clan grounds. The shaft is made out of Teak with a unique symbol comprised of metal where the Arashi clan member is supposed to grasp if they wish to channel chakra into the bladed portion. Like all other weapons made from Maelstrite it is capable of storing Nimbus clouds within it, it has the largest amount of storage capable of all Arashi weapons totalling at 7. It shares the abilities of it's predecessors albeit enhanced with Nimbus only being able to be detected by those with S-rank wind displacement sensory. When chakra is cycled into the metal on the symbol it passes through the chakra conductive metal within the shaft to reach the bladed edge. The Arashi Tomahawk can act as a lightning rod to S-rank and below Lightning release techniques however it does not discharge the collected electricity unless the user makes contact with the metal instead the gathered electricity constantly cycled through the bladed edge at Blinding Light speeds discharging on the next thing to make contact with it. The Blade itself was infused with the poison produce by a Hypnocatrice with victims who are cut gradually becoming sluggish eventually succumbing to sleep dependent on their endurance tier. It takes a single hit and after 2 posts (total) the victim falls asleep if they do not have any endurance tiers whatsoever, for every rank of endurance the number of hits required increases by 1 and the posts they take before falling asleep increases by 2. Due to the effects of the Hypnocatrice's poison the victim wakes up if they are struck again however now it takes half as many posts for them to fall asleep which can be repeated until the victim doesn't wake up no matter how many times they are struck. When thrown due to it's weight it is capable of knocking other projectiles out of the air that weigh less than it on route to it's target as long as they are not thrown with strength tiers even when the Arashi Tomahawk isn't backed by strength tiers.

Name: Nimbus: Cloud Generation
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: D
Class: Passive
Range: Self, Varies

Description: The Arashi are capable of producing pearly white Materia known as Nimbus which resemble clouds which manifest when the user is focused or emotional. Often called Nimbus clouds, they are integral to the use of Storm Release as an Arashi Clan member will shape Nimbus and may or may not saturate them with chakra to give rise to Storm Release techniques. Nimbus clouds are controlled telekinetically having a deep connection with an Arashi's mental state and each Arashi is able to produce and control more Nimbus clouds as they grow more skilled (rank). Similarily they all have a max threshold of Nimbus that they can control on the field at once without strain, under normal circumstances without resulting in self harm this can not be exceeded. When Nimbus are used up in Storm Release techniques however it eases the mind allowing more Nimbus to be produced when "space" is made available.

Name: Nimbus: Cloud Saturation
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: D
Class: Passive
Range: Self (Cloud)

Description: A Nimbus is Storm Release in physical form, however it is capable of having it's density shifted at the user's will. When increasing a Nimbus's density it becomes thicker and solid not allowing things to pass through it and being more difficult to see through, when decreasing a Nimbus's density it becomes very faint almost completely transparent while allowing things to pass through it with ease. The Nimbus itself ties into an Arashi clan members stamina as all Nimbus can sustain damage from a D-rank technique before dispersing however by expending stamina while they are produced they can be saturated improving their durability at the cost of rapidly tiring out the user. This price affects all of the Nimbus produced at the specific time it is used, and can be used without limit and can be stacked in the same post though overuse often leads to users being fatigued very quickly. The most skilled Arashi are capable of producing Nimbus clouds which are S-rank in durability through this method making it a versatile skill for any Arashi to possess. Despite this, all Nimbus are worth the same amount when being used in Storm Release techniques this passive typically finds more use for those Arashi who lack the ability to use the advanced variants and are stuck with the basic variant.

Name: Mixed Ancestry
Classification: Ninjutsu (Taijutsu to Pirates)
Rank: D
Class: Passive
Range: Self, Varies

Description: The Arashi clan shares genetic material with the same beings which Nova were created from the Chakra Beasts. Due to this and constant intermingling with their Nova "cousins" an Arashi typically has large chakra reserves equating that of Soulless however depending on how far back the last Nova relative was this can drop to Inkan levels (5+ generations of non-nova ancestry). Along with this the Arashi Clan has a unique trait, a partial genjutsu immunity which is known to fluctuate as the Arashi grows in skill level (rank). Those of the "Royal" Taifū, "Elite" Tatsumaki branches as well as those clan members at the pinacle of their growth (Elite ranks & S-rank) are able to control the fluctuations more easily. Upon entering a topic the Arashi Clan member places in spoiler tags which rank the genjutsu immunity is active for and it lasts for the end of the topic. Until the Arashi clan member learns how to control it, it is always an equal rank genjutsu immunity.

Name: Weather Child
Classification: Ninjutsu (Taijutsu to Pirates)
Rank: D
Class: Passive
Range: Self, Varies

Description: The Arashi have a close relation with weather, this is mainly due to their Kekkei Genkai revolving around storms. As a result an Arashi is able to read the subtle changes in the environment and use that to make educated guesses, on the weather. This is not true prediction as the Arashi Clan member may be wrong and upon making their last post in a topic they have the option of making a Weather Roll to
"predict" the weather of the next topic upon travelling through Areas or Lands. Due to occasionally being wrong in the Arashi Clan members post in the new topic assuming they are the first to post they can do an optional dice roll to see the weather for the topic or they can choose to stick with their "prediction" which results in the weather for that topic being what they guessed it would be. If they reroll and it is something different then their guess was wrong, if they reroll and it was the same then their guess was still correct and they worried for nothing.

Name: Nimbus: Storm Radius
Classification: Taijutsu

Class: Supplementary
Range: Self, Clouds (AOE)

Description: It is a common misconception that the Arashi clan are capable of controlling the Nimbus they produce no matter what. This is actually not true as every Arashi while being able to control their Nimbus Clouds telekinetically, can only do so within a certain radius. Exceeding that radius results in the clouds dispersing as the Arashi Clan member is unable to exert the control necessary to keep it in being. As the Arashi Clan member becomes more skilled however the radius that they can control Nimbus clouds expands.
Rank - Radius of Control (ft) - Sphere of Control (Radius)

C - 40 - 80
B - 60 - 120
A - 80 - 160

Name: Nimbus: Cloud Storage
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self (Clouds)

Description: Perhaps the reason the Maelstrite Alloy was created in the first place by Kaine Arashi after a combat accident made him forcibly retire and become a Blacksmith. Controlling Nimbus is taxing on an Arashi Clan members brain however when those Nimbus clouds are stored away and not focused on it frees up "space" for more to be produced however the main drawback occurs if an Arashi attempts to manipulate a Nimbus within a Maelstrite comprised weapon when they've reached their max threshold. This causes them to instantly sustain mental damage as well as a set number of Nimbus outside of a Arashi Weapon to instantly disperse as their focus is lost. The mental damage dealt is completely dependent on the number of Nimbus within said weapon while the number of Nimbus dispersed depends on the user's skill level.

Description: Sharply contrasting with their ability to produce Nimbus is the percentage of Arashi who are actually able to finely control them in battle. When this technique isn't learned the fastest Nimbus they control is only capable of moving at normal running speed. Once learned however it affects not only the speed that Nimbus Clouds can move but likewise the speeds that they can be manipulated to change in density, size and shape. More importantly this technique was learned by Arashi due to it's ability to speed up the time that a Storm Release technique can be weaved together to D-rank Speed.

Name: Nimbus: Morphing
Classification: Kenjutsu/Shurikenjutsu/Kyujutsu

Description: An Arashi with sufficient practice can learn how to morph a Nimbus into another shape, it was on this premise that this skill was created by generations of Arashi clan members. The user is capable of altering the shape of the Nimbus into a weapon, whether a melee weapon such as a sword, a projectile such as a shuriken or a ranged weapon such as a bow with additional clouds being used as ammo. All the weapons made keep the durability of the cloud that they were made from and they are extremely light due to being made form the Nimbus. Despite that they are able to be used in place of the weapon that they were shaped to be dealing Storm Release Physical Damage when used in combat.

Name: Nimbus: Alteration
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary/Passive
Range: Self (Clouds)

Description: The average Arashi Clan member produces Nimbus Clouds which are the size of a small creature, this changes as they grow older becoming larger over time if they keep practicing at it. There is a way however that the size can be manipulated further either by shrinking or stretching the cloud this depends on the user's skill level. Stretching or Shrinking a cloud has no effect on it's durability or other functions beyond making it a bigger or smaller target despite that many Arashi Clan members learn how to do this out of sheer boredom.

Name: Nimbus: Layering
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self (Clouds)

Description: Due to their natural ability to exert themselves in order to boost the durability of their Nimbus most Arashi did not realize that there was an additional means of doing so. The first user of this technique was Haru Arashi one of the members of the Storm Corps. She layered one of her Nimbus clouds over another before twisting them together causing them to mix resulting in a darker Nimbus tinted slightly gray. Curiosity resulted in her doing it over again with another two clouds resulting in the same thing occuring, it was only until she layered the two gray clouds together than it changed once more now producing an even darker tinted Nimbus. This this technique was born, when layering Nimbus together it produces a denser version which possesses increased durability at the cost of being unable to seperate the clouds comprising it. This layered cloud when used in Storm Release techniques is always worth the amount used to form it, however due to not creating a new cloud but rather layering them over one another each one takes as much "Space" as the amount of Nimbus used to form them.

Name: Nimbus: Ascension
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: AOE

Description: In order to utilize some of there strongest techniques involving Storm Release an Arashi must give up control over their Nimbus clouds causing said the Nimbus affected to ascend upward to become part of the clouds in the sky freeing up space in exchange for the Arashi no longer being able to control the clouds. Depending on the type of Nimbus whether it is a Nimbus, Cumulonimbus, Advanced Nimbus, Advanced Cumulonimbus, Perfect Nimbus, Perfect Cumulonimbus, Mesocyclone or Cyclone all of them rise into the air up to a certain distance before stopping while depending on the rank of the Arashi the number of clouds that rise due to one use of Ascension differs. Once used this technique as a 20 post (total) cooldown before it can be utilized again, similarily the Nimbus which have had ascension used on them keep the same durability as they had while under the Arashi's control. All ascended Nimbus travel upward at 1-rank higher speed than the Arashi Clan member's Cloud Control.
Cloud Type - Ascended Distance = Number of Clouds Ascended (Rank of User D/C/B/A/S)
Nimbus - 160 feet (48.7 meters) = 5/6/7/8/9
Cumulonimbus - 320 ft (97.5 m) = 4/5/6/7/8
Adv. Nimbus - 480 ft (146.3 m) = 3/4/5/6/7

When this technique isn't learned the fastest Nimbus is only capable of moving at Vacuum Release speed. Once learned however it affects not only the speed that Nimbus Clouds can move but likewise the speeds that they can be manipulated to change in density, size and shape. More importantly this technique was learned by Arashi due to it's ability to speed up the time that a Storm Release technique can be weaved together to S-rank Levels.

Name: Nimbus: Cloud Armor
Classification: Nintaijutsu
Rank: S-rank (Cloud Cost Variable + 1 S-rank of Chakra)
Class: Defensive/Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: This is a Nimbus technique which involves the user being clad in their Nimbus in order to grant them additional durability depending on how many clouds are layered on top of each other in the formation of this technique. The duration in posts (total) is equal to the number of clouds spent in the use of this technique during which no new clouds can be produced and upon the ending of this technique the clouds used to form this technique are all lost. When this technique is used with Variant Clouds however it grants resistance to the Variant Storm Technique line of the highest type of cloud comprising the Cloud Armor. For example an Adv. Nimbus cloud (I.e Firestorm Nimbus) will grant the Arashi resistance to the technique line of the Adv. Nimbus cloud and those under it (Firestorm Nimbus, Fire Cumulonimbus & Fire Nimbus) preventing the user from succumbing to the effects of their own techniques while clad in their armor. Similarily it converts the user's Taijutsu to Nintaijutsu techniques, to inflict the status effects of variant clouds with opponents with equal rank Chakra Tiers or 1-rank Higher Endurance Tiers being immune, while likewise inflicting additional Storm Release Chakra based damage on contact.

Such an opportunity was granted when Rayne Arashi created Molting Step. The premise was simple a sudden coiling of the muscles before moving caused opponents who were not focusing intently on him to be unable to track his movement. It's drawback however was that it was easily able to be detected by those with Muscle Tension or time-slowing dojutsu as well as the distance it could cover with one movement. Shizukana Shi was the systematic refinement of fighting opponents using Molting Step revolving around assasination without the opponent not only noticing what killed them but those around the target not hearing the death in question.

Name: Molting Step
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: D-rank (D-rank Blood Price Each Step taken)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: Molting Step revolves around the user first hyperventilating in order to increase the heart rate thus allowing their blood to flow quicker through their body. The user then follows up by coiling the muscles in their legs before kicking off the ground and crossing a set distance at high speeds before taking another step. This distance is constant regardless of the speed used, with higher speed having the distance they are capable of travelling in a single post (total) being directly added onto this technique. During this movement opponents without D-rank Reaction Tiers, 1-rank Higher Speed, Muscle Tension or a Time-Slowing Dojutsu are unable to track their movement. This technique sets the precedent for all Categories (advanced variations) that come after it. As the user becomes more skilled at the use of Molting Step they can increase their distance however those Arashi Clan members who were unfortunate enough to be born with damaged chakra coils are capable of mastering it further by reducing the number of steps taken over said distance.
Rank - Distance (ft) - No of Steps Per Distance (Normal/PAT/TAT)
D - 5 - 1/1/1
C - 10 - 3/2/2
B - 15 - 6/4/3
A - 20 - 9/6/4
S - 25 - 12/8/5

Name: Shizukana Shi: Silent Movement
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: This is the art of moving silently, which Arashi have learned to do by virtue of watching others and encountering the users of the Silent Killing Technique. This involves the user adopting a crouching stance while moving landing with their heel first followed by a smooth rolling of the foot before pushing off the toe. This is done primarily to reduce the impact noise of their feet on a surface with opponents with normal hearing being unable to track their movement while likewise masking the impact vibrations of their feet from D-rank Vibration Sensory techniques.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Ninja Step Minimizing
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Molting Step while powerful is inherently flawed in comparison to other movement styles, it requires the Arashi to be calculating with exactly when or where they move as a misstep causes them to waste valuable life-force. Over time however the Arashi discovered that among those members of the clan who had parents, grandparents or any ancestry who regularly used Molting Step that their bodies had seemingly adapted to the strain to create modified Endurance Tiers who's sole purpose was to reduce the strain from preforming Molting Step. This is the first of such and works to decrease the number of steps by 2 (If Normal Arashi), 1 (If P.A.T Arashi) or 0 (If T.A.T Arashi).

Name: Molting Step: Category 1
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: C-rank (3 D-rank Blood Price Each Step taken)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: This is an improved version of Molting Step increasing the speed that the user moves while simultaneously causing those who aren't focusing on the user (C-rank Reaction Tiers) to be unable to detect their movement (Req. Raised Hearing to hear steps). The main improvement however is by combining it with Shizukana Shi: Silent Movement allowing the user to use them simultaneously resulting in a silent movement technique which is primarily used by the Arashi in place of a speed tier. When using this technique slower than usual (Molting Step) for the same price, double the distance can be covered for the same number of Steps.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Step Halving
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Another variant to the way of preforming Molting Step which was created to give members of the Arashi Clan more flexibility in combat. This technique grants an Arashi the ability to cancel their movement covering half the normal distance for a 1-rank reduced blood price (Min of 1 D-rank for Molting Step) per step & serves as the gateway for higher mastery of the Molting Step. If the Arashi already has learned Ninja Step Minimizing and is either a P.A.T user or a T.A.T user then when using Molting Step they will use either the Mid (P.A.T) or Long (T.A.T) distance modifier to determine the distance they can travel for the same amount of steps as a normal Arashi.

Name: Storm Release: Hiding within the Clouds Technique
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: C-rank (1 Nimbus + 1 D-rank of Chakra)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Long, Combo with Hidden Mist Technique (AOE)

Description: This is one of the few Storm Release techniques which doesn't make use of the variants. The Nimbus seems to rupture causing the air to become cloudy obscuring vision and causing those with chakra sensory techniques C-rank or below to detect the user's chakra signature spread over a 40 ft radius around the cloud. This technique requires a D-rank Wind Dispersal technique in order to clear it up and restore vision. When used however within the Hidden Mist Technique this technique is powered up by the former now spreading over an 80 ft radius around the cloud in question now requiring a C-rank Wind Dispersal technique to clear the area of it.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Monk Step Minimizing
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary

Description: Molting Step while powerful is inherently flawed in comparison to other movement styles, it requires the Arashi to be calculating with exactly when or where they move as a misstep causes them to waste valuable life-force. Over time however the Arashi discovered that among those members of the clan who had parents, grandparents or any ancestry who regularly used Molting Step that their bodies had seemingly adapted to the strain to create modified Endurance Tiers who's sole purpose was to reduce the strain from preforming Molting Step. This is the second of such and works to decrease the number of steps by 2 (If Normal Arashi), 1 (If P.A.T Arashi) or 1 (If T.A.T Arashi), thus having a minimum of 1 Step at C-rank.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Step Thirding
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Another variant to the way of preforming Molting Step which was created to give members of the Arashi Clan more flexibility in combat. This technique grants an Arashi the ability to cancel their movement covering a third of the normal distance for a 2-rank reduced blood price (Min of 2 D-rank for Category 1) per step & serves as the gateway for higher mastery of the Molting Step. If the Arashi already has learned Monk Step Minimizing and is either a P.A.T user or a T.A.T user then when using Molting Step they will use either the Mid (P.A.T) or Long (T.A.T) distance modifier to determine the distance they can travel for the same amount of steps as a normal Arashi.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Silent Stepping
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: The Arashi version of Silent Killing based on the principle of Shizukana Shi and a mastery of Molting Step. The Arashi do not have an enhanced sense of hearing, however they have become more than competent at stealth. They have learned how to track others by their footsteps as well as those using Silent Killing as long as they make more steps than the Arashi in question. When used however under the cover of an area concealment technique such as the Hidden Mist or Hiding in the Clouds technique the Arashi become much more difficult to detect while victims are only that much easier to find. Opponents who either have reaction tiers relying on senses other than Sight or Hearing equal to the speed the Arashi is moving are able to detect their physical attacks. Those who don't however require 1-rank higher speed to detect an Arashi's physical attacks while those who lack reaction at all either must have a B-rank sensory technique (excluding sound, sight or chakra) or 2-rank higher speed for them to be able to dodge the Arashi Clan members physical attacks.

This is the second of such and works to decrease the number of steps by 5 (If Normal Arashi), 3 (If P.A.T Arashi) or 2 (If T.A.T Arashi), thus having a minimum of 1 Step at B-rank.

Name: Molting Step: Category 2
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: B-rank (1 C-rank Blood Price Each Step taken)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: This is an improved version of Molting Step increasing the speed that the user moves while simultaneously causing those who aren't focusing on the user (B-rank Reaction Tiers) to be unable to detect their movement (Req. Heightened Hearing to hear steps). The main improvement however is by combining it with Shizukana Shi: Silent Movement allowing the user to use them simultaneously resulting in a silent movement technique which is primarily used by the Arashi in place of a speed tier. When using this technique slower than usual (Category 1 or Molting Step) for the same price, double/triple the distance can be covered for the same number of Steps.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Step Quartering
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Another variant to the way of preforming Molting Step which was created to give members of the Arashi Clan more flexibility in combat. This technique grants an Arashi the ability to cancel their movement covering quarter the normal distance for a 3-rank reduced blood price (Min of 3 D-rank for Category 2) per step & serves as the gateway for higher mastery of the Molting Step. If the Arashi already has learned Indomitable Step Minimizing and is either a P.A.T user or a T.A.T user then when using Molting Step they will use either the Mid (P.A.T) or Long (T.A.T) distance modifier to determine the distance they can travel for the same amount of steps as a normal Arashi.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Silent Kill
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Contact

Description: A simple yet lethal technique when employed correctly which involves an Arashi Clan member utilizing the Molting Step in order to disable at worst, or at best kill someone. There are three ways of doing such; the first being grabbing an opponent by the cloth on their neck or back and preforming Molting Step or any of it's variations, the second being intercepting a target moving at a slower speed than the user within the distance of two of the Arashi clan members steps and finally the third which involves palming a targets face at the immediate end of the distance between two of the Arashi Clan members steps. In the first case "grabbing a target" if they do not possess the speed tier the Molting Step is occurring at or Defense Tiers equal to that speed their neck is snapped due to the rapid increase in velocity. In the second case "intercepting a target" if they do not possess the speed tier the Molting Step is occurring at or their speed is not being backed by strength equal to said speed their neck is snapped due to the sudden change in velocity in a direction the victim was not originally going in. In the third case "impacting a target" if the target does not possess defense tiers equal to the speed the Molting Step occurs their neck is snapped, if they do not possess strength to root their body in place however their body is sent flying from the impact.

This is the second of such and works to decrease the number of steps by 8 (If Normal Arashi), 5 (If P.A.T Arashi) or 3 (If T.A.T Arashi), thus having a minimum of 1 Step at A-rank.

Name: Molting Step: Category 3
Classification: Kinjutsu

Range: Short

Description: This is an improved version of Molting Step increasing the speed that the user moves while simultaneously causing those who aren't focusing on the user (A-rank Reaction Tiers) to be unable to detect their movement (Req. Enhanced hearing to hear steps). The main improvement however is by combining it with Shizukana Shi: Silent Movement allowing the user to use them simultaneously resulting in a silent movement technique which is primarily used by the Arashi in place of a speed tier. When using this technique slower than usual (Category 2, Category 1 or Molting Step) for the same price, double/triple/quadruple the distance can be covered for the same number of Steps.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Step Fifthing
Classification: Taijutsu

This technique grants an Arashi the ability to cancel their movement covering one-fifth the normal distance for a 5-rank reduced blood price (Min of 5 D-rank for Category 4) per step & serves as the gateway for higher mastery of the Molting Step. If the Arashi already has learned Unbreakable Step Minimizing and is either a P.A.T user or a T.A.T user then when using Molting Step they will use either the Mid (P.A.T) or Long (T.A.T) distance modifier to determine the distance they can travel for the same amount of steps as a normal Arashi.

Name: Shizukana Shi: Immortal Step Minimizing
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: S-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Molting Step while powerful is inherently flawed in comparison to other movement styles, it requires the Arashi to be calculating with exactly when or where they move as a misstep causes them to waste valuable life-force. Over time however the Arashi discovered that among those members of the clan who had parents, grandparents or any ancestry who regularly used Molting Step that their bodies had seemingly adapted to the strain to create modified Endurance Tiers who's sole purpose was to reduce the strain from preforming Molting Step. This is the second of such and works to decrease the number of steps by 11 (If Normal Arashi), 7 (If P.A.T Arashi) or 4 (If T.A.T Arashi), thus having a minimum of 1 Step at S-rank.

Name: Molting Step: Category 4
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: S-rank (1 A-rank Blood Price Each Step taken)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: This is an improved version of Molting Step increasing the speed that the user moves while simultaneously causing those who aren't focusing on the user (S-rank Reaction Tiers) to be unable to detect their movement (Req. Max hearing to hear steps). The main improvement however is by combining it with Shizukana Shi: Silent Movement allowing the user to use them simultaneously resulting in a silent movement technique which is primarily used by the Arashi in place of a speed tier.

This technique grants an Arashi the ability to cancel their movement covering one-sixth the normal distance for a 6-rank reduced blood price (Min of C-rank for Category 5) per step & serves as the gateway for higher mastery of the Molting Step. If the Arashi already has learned Immortal Step Minimizing and is either a P.A.T user or a T.A.T user then when using Molting Step they will use either the Mid (P.A.T) or Long (T.A.T) distance modifier to determine the distance they can travel for the same amount of steps as a normal Arashi.

Name: Molting Step: Category 5
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: SS-rank (1 S-rank Blood Price Each Step taken)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: This is the mastered version of Molting Step drastically increasing the speed that the user moves while simultaneously causing those who aren't focusing on the user (SS-rank Reaction Tiers) to be unable to detect their movement (Req. Above Max hearing to hear steps). This technique can actually kill those who aren't prepared for it due to blood loss with those who use it and take more steps than their blood limit actually dying from blood loss after reaching their destination. The main improvement however is by combining it with Shizukana Shi: Silent Movement allowing the user to use them simultaneously resulting in a silent movement technique which is primarily used by the Arashi in order to escape or briefly keep up with those faster than them. When using this technique slower than usual (Category 4, Category 3,Category 2, Category 1 or Molting Step) for the same price, double/triple/quadruple/quintuple/hexatruple the distance can be covered for the same number of Steps.

Name:Storm Release: Eye of the Storm
Classification: Nintaijutsu
Rank: D-rank (Chakra Price Varies)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self (Eye-Sight)

Description: This is one of the few Storm Release Techniques which makes no use of Nimbus due to being internal based. The creator, Ryuujin Arashi created this technique in order to assist with the use of Molting Step however it was refined by future generations into the technique it is today. The user channels Storm Release chakra into their eyes allowing them to visualize wind currents which is retained until they blink (2 posts total) causing them to require a new price. Users of this technique with Endurance Tiers get more out of a single use by being able to hold their eyes open longer with every rank of endurance increasing the duration by 1 post capping out at 7 posts (total) with S-rank endurance tiers. The more chakra put into the activation of this technique the faster speeds which can be tracked by wind displacement sensory also capping at S.

Name: Arashi Style: Storm Edge
Classification: Shurikenjutsu/Ninjutsu
Rank: D-rank (1, 2 or 3 Nimbus + D-rank Chakra)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: A method of throwing first down by channelling chakra into an Arashi Shuriken, Blade or Bladerang before throwing them at an opponent. This causes the slicing capabilities of the projectile to subtly lengthen as if the projectile was a mini storm cloud. Only those with wind displacement sensory high enough to detect the Nimbus within the projectile in question are able to notice the danger with every nimbus cloud within extending the slicing radius of the projectile by 6 inches. Due to the subtley of this technique it doesn't need to be placed in spoiler tags until triggered unless the opponent has D, C or B-rank wind displacement sensory.
Projectile Type - Min Cutting Radius - Max Cutting Radius
Arashi Shuriken - 2 1/2 inches - 8 1/2 inches (1' 6'' Diameter)
Arashi Blade - 1 ft - 2ft 6 inches (4' 2'' Diameter)
Arashi Bladerang - 6 inches or 1ft 3 inches - 5ft (10 ft Diameter)

Name: Arashi Style: Blade Projectile Method
Classification: Shurikenjutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: The Arashi have peculiar weapons, but none more so than the Arashi Blade and the Arashi Bladerang. This technique is taught to all Arashi who decide to learn how to use the Arashi Blade in combat so as to teach them how to both throw and catch the weapon in question. The throw is the easy part it simply requires the Arashi to place their index and pinky fingers partially into the holes on the Arashi Blade before flicking the wrist as one extends their arm. This causes the Arashi in question to throw it 1-rank below the speed they used to remove their fingers from the hole or at the same speed at the cost of sustaining D-rank physical damage to their fingers. Catching it however is more complex, the easiest way of doing such is by using the Eye of the Storm and tracking the Blades movement through the air before snatching it out of the air by placing ones fingers in the holes with specific timing. This can however be done without using the Eye of the Storm depending on how skilled the user is being able to catch it 100 percent of the time if the speed it is moving is below their rank and 50 percent of the time (dice roll) if the speed it is moving is equal to their rank. It is impossible to catch it if it's moving higher than one's rank unless they possess a speed tier equal to it and use eye of the storm to track the movement otherwise they will end up getting sliced by the blade.

Name: Arashi Style: Stormy Preformance
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: C-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Mid-range

Description: The Arashi Style: Stormy Preformance shurikenjutsu technique is a fighting style relying on a constant barrage of projectiles while anticipating a targets movement due to the wind displacement sensory capabilities of the Eye of the Storm. This was created by Kai Arashi after he was taught the Eye of the Storm by Ryuujin during the formers time in the Storm Corps. The projectiles are thrown at high speeds in order to trip an opponent up however it only showcases it's true potential when utilize with either the Arashi Shuriken, Arashi Blade or Arashi Bladerang with at least 1 Nimbus stored within them. This is due to the Arashi Clan member being able to correct any misses by manipulating the Nimbus within the projectile.

Name: Arashi Style: Bladerang Projectile Method
Classification: Shurikenjutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: The Arashi have peculiar weapons, but none more so than the Arashi Blade and the Arashi Bladerang. This technique is taught to all Arashi who decide to learn how to use the Arashi Bladerang in combat so as to teach them how to both throw and catch the weapon in question. The blades pop out at differing speeds depending on amount of Nimbus stored within, at default they always pop out at Bullet Release speeds, each Nimbus raises it by 1-rank capping out at Blinding Light when all 3 are stored within. Often when being thrown if the Arashi does not wish to have their fingers sliced off by their own weapon expanding they must always throw it at speeds faster than it can open. This causes the Arashi Bladerang to open up during flight often surprising opponents who are unprepared requiring 1-rank higher speed if they have already dodged it while the blades are still folded if they are within 2 feet of it. Arashi can however "cheat" by using the Nimbus within to delay the opening depending on the durability & number stored within.
Nimbus Durability - Max Time Delay with 1, 2 or 3 in posts (total)
Normal - Instant/1/2
3 D - 3/6/9
C - 6/9/12
B - 9/12/15
A - 12/15/18
S - 15/18/21

Name: Stormy Preformance: Second Step
Classification: Shurikenjutsu/Taijutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Mid-range

Description: The user spins around at high-speeds of Crashing Ground, appearing like a small twister due to the intense rotation. While doing so, the user will launch a series of Shuriken/Blades/Bladerangs either capable of striking multiple targets at once or in the case of a single target impaling them with multiple projectile weapons. When targetting a single target the projectiles are thrown in succession resulting in a narrow window of dodging which requires either B-rank Reaction Tiers or a B-rank sensory technique, C-rank speed + Time-Slowing Dojutsu/Muscle Tension or D-rank Speed + Time-Slowing Dojutsu & Muscle Tension.
Type of Projectile - No. Thrown
Arashi Shuriken - 16
Arashi Blade - 8
Arashi Bladerang - 4
Arashi Tomahawk - 2

Name: Stormy Preformance: Third Step
Classification: Shurikenjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Mid-range

Description: The Arashi Clan member throws a series of projectiles at an opponent which forms a ring formation as it flies through the air stretching over a set distance depending on the projectiles used. Opponents which dodge the first projectile yet remain within the ring are churned up as if they were in the middle of an actual storm sending them spinning with A-rank force into one of the projectiles comprising the ring. This technique can be chained with Second Step and due to being a trap does not need to be placed in spoiler tags unless the target possesses wind displacement sensory to detect the storm brewing in between the ring of projectiles.
Type of Projectile - Size of ring formation (Radius)
Shuriken - 20 ft
Blade - 15 ft
Bladerang - 10 ft
Tomahawk - 5 ft

Name: Kumo-Ryu
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: D
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self, Varies

Description: Kumo-Ryu is the signature kenjutsu of Arashi Clan swordsmen and involves the utilization of speed with momentum to generate enough force to displace the user's body while combating opponents. It was first utilized by Haru Arashi after she looted the body of a particularily strong swordsman, after studying it she decided to create a fighting style which could be combined with the Molting Step to great effect. Kumo-Ryu can be used with 5 different weapons certain techniques being exclusive to certain weapons these are; Chokuto, Tanto, Arashi Blade, Arashi Club & the Arashi Tomahawk. This displacement results in forced movement allowing them to alter their movement mid motion as well as accelerate, ascend, decelerate and turn at speeds that they do not usually possess. This momentum is generated through constant motion each post (total) by means of running or Molting Steps before suddenly halting the rapid change from active to passive being the strength of this kenjutsu style. Each of these techniques consume what is called, "Momentum Tokens", which is essentially the built up momentum from the constant movement in order to utilize the kata comprising this kenjutsu style. By spending additional momentum tokens than the required amount the techniques are empowered, boosting the speed they are preformed or damage dealt turning basic swings into deadly strikes.
Time Spent Moving - Normal Speed Bonus - M. S. Bonus = Momentum Tokens
1 Post - D-rank +1 - M.S +1 = 1,2 or 3
2 Posts - C-rank +2 - Cat 1 +2 = 2,4 or 6
3 Posts - B-rank +3 - Cat 2 +3 = 3,9 or 9
4 Posts - A-rank +4 - Cat 3 +4 = 4,8 or 12
5 Posts - S-rank +5 - Cat 4 +5 = 5,10 or 15
6 Posts - SS-rank +6 - Cat 5 +6 = 6,12 or 18
Each Step taken while using Molting Step moving adds +1 additional Momentum Token.
+2 Additional Momentum Tokens boosts the Spd of the Techinque by 1.
+4 Additional Momentum Tokens boosts the Dmg of the Techinque by 1.
+6 Additional Momentum Tokens boosts the Spd & Dmg of the Techinque by 1.
Note - Still Affected by Recoil.

Name: Kumo-Ryu: Deception Beheading
Classification: Kenjutsu/Ninjutsu
Rank: C (1 Momentum Token Req.)
Class: Offensive
Range: Short [Any]

Description: Requires Body Replacement Technique. Using the Body Replacement Technique to feign being attacked, the user takes advantage of their opponent's momentary shock, and charges forward with a lateral slash coming from the opponents blind spot moving at bullet release speeds. In order to further "sell" the illusion of being injured this technique can be used immediately during the body replacement with the illusion actually showing the sustained damage (blood, body parts etc) up to a post (total) after the technique has hit only for the user resurface unharmed. Due to it occuring the moment an attack hit it is capable of instantly hitting those too slow to react to the ruse requiring equal rank reaction tiers to the user's speed to dodge or speed tiers 1-rank higher than their own own for a glancing blow, those with the Time-Slowing Dojutsu or Muscle Tension being able to dodge as long as they have the same speed as the user.

Name: Kumo-Ryu: Mist Beheading
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: C (2 Momentum Tokens Req.)
Class: Offensive
Range: Short [Chokuto/Tanto/Blade]

Description: Requires Shadow Clone Technique. After creating several shadow clones which surround the enemy and attack them simultaneously all, at bullet release speeds, forcing them to jump into the air, the real user will then attack them from above capitalizing on the opponents vulnerability to impale them from above. Unless the opponent has C-rank reaction speed and an air movement technique they will be unable to dodge this technique. When utilized however in the Hidden Mist or Hiding within the Clouds technique it becomes even more dangerous with only opponents capable of detecting the user & possess an air movement technique being able to dodge this attack.

Name: Kumo-Ryu: Glint Beheading
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: C (3 Momentum Tokens Req.)
Class: Offensive

Those who are blind or manage to avoid getting the glint in their eyes are immune to the blindness added effect. This technique due to requiring light can only be preformed in an area which is lighted or has some source of light to reflect.

If they root themselves in place with strength tiers however they are not dragged however the wound dealt to them is more grievous than before with victims losing an A-rank of blood each post (total) (Instead of losing a B-rank of blood each P.T when not anchored in place). The Arashi clan member while dragging an opponent with them always moves 1-rank slower than they would unburdened, however at the cost of prematurely ending their motion with another Step to move in another direction the blade is removed from the victims body with them continuing in the direction the Arashi clan member was originally going potentially sustaining additional damage if they collide into anything mid-flight. The plus however is if they do collide with anything it immediately halts their movement allowing them to regain their bearings.

Name: Uzugan (Maelstrom Eye)
Classification: Single Stage Dojutsu
Type: Kekkei Genkai (Activation Price collected once, Duration Price collected each post total)
Activation: -5 Fatigue. Every 25% Power Ration costs an -1 Fatigue caps at -4 Fatigue loss
Appearance:

Spoiler:

Description: The Uzugan (Maelstrom Eye) was originally created through a mutation due to it's originator Devin U. Arashi's mixed heritage, her child would inherit the powerful dojutsu with it having mutated yet again stabilizing into it's true form rather than it's original mutated one. The Uzugan stems from four composite Dojutsu, and in it's initial form contained certain abilities from all of them, now however some of it's original abilities have been lost and others remolded to be unique to the Uzugan in question. This dojutsu has four abilities all of which are available upon manifesting and it has no evolved forms, instead upon becoming active it causes the user's eyes pupils to turn a shade of purple with numerous patterns within them centering around a sun-like pattern in the center which serves as the focus of the user's vision. The Uzugan's abilities each revolve around a specific band on the active dojutsu each work together to provide the user with amplified perception and vision however the user of the dojutsu is capable of reducing the power to their dojutsu in order to lower the drain it has on them. In order to activate it requires -5 Fatigue and each post (total) the user has it active it drains a varying amount of fatigue from their fatigue limit depending on the Power Ratio (Caps at -4 each post (total) at 100%).
*Outer Rim - The outer rim is capable of detecting flow or more specifically the displaced substances caused by a targets moment through a set fluid. This grants the user Displacement Sensory which dependent on the fluid can either give rise to Wind Displacement Sensory or Water Displacement Sensory whether the target is in air or underwater. The power of this vision depends on the user's age as it becomes more powerful the older the user is starting at being able to track D-rank speeds through displacement when the user is born. Every 5 years after that it increases it's power by 1-rank capping out at the age of 30 by being able to detect displaced speeds of Echoing Flash. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% Cost = -1 Additional Fatigue
*Middle Rim - The middle rim is capable of analyzing techniques which utilize chakra that the user is able to see used in battle allowing them to accurately detect the elemental affinity(s) if any, rank and cost required to use it, it does not however analyze the effects of the technique nor allow the user to replicate it. It simply acts to determine the strength of techniques used in battle in order to assist the user with determining the threat of an attack. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% = -1 Additional Fatigue
*Inner Rim - *Inner Rim - The Uzugan grants the user Storm Release, in particular Heat Clouds however it's user's are unable to learn the original Cloud Types available to the Arashi Clan namely Blaze, Thunder, Ice & Dust. When the Uzugan is active Heat Nimbus are constantly produced by the user depending on their skill level and can be manipulated at will to utilize Storm Release techniques involving Heat Nimbus without the use of hand seals. The number of Heat Nimbus produced is 1 each post (total) with each rank up increasing it's total by 1 (cap of 5). The maximum amount of Heat Nimbus that can be on the field at one time also caps out at various levels depending on the users skill level starting at 10 at D-rank capping at 50 at S-rank, similar to the Nimbus produced by the Arashi Clan these clouds serve as Materia for the use of Storm Release techniques. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% = -1 Additional Fatigue
*Sun Pupil - The sun Pupil causes the user to develop a secondary conciousness known as The Personality who is capable of maintaining the functions of the Uzugan and their Storm Release techniques. This conciousness serves as a secondary mental defense as when active this dojutsu now becomes capable of breaking out of genjutsu equal to their skill level, the personality becomes more powerful the higher the overall power ratio to the dojutsu is as it manages each one independently of the user. Dojutsu Power Ratio = 25% = -1 Additional Fatigue
Dojutsu Power Ratio - Personality Effect
25% - None (Activation)
50% -  Chakra Flow is able to be detected when displaced outside of a target's body (Aka chakra used externally not internally).
75% - The Speed of Heat Cloud manipulation is equal to the displacement tracking speed of the user.
100% - Analyzing extends to cover not only just chakra using techniques but techniques which use chakra in addition to other prices.

Name: Uzugan: Maelstrom Infect
Classification: Kinjutsu/Genjutsu
Rank: B-rank (Optional B-rank chakra cost)
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Eye Contact

Description: Sun Pupil & Inner Rim Required to use. This is a forbidden technique which targets fellow dojutsu users at the price of causing the user's eyes to start crying tears of blood. Since the Uzugan was created from the hybridization of dojutsu one can project the Uzugan directly onto others by means of eye contact "infecting" their dojutsu with the rapid gene mutation that formed it. Once infected the Uzugan that the opponent receives shuts down immediately causing blindness via a powerful B-rank genjutsu which can only be broken out of by injuring the user of this technique to break their focus or if the opponent is of a high enough rank to break out of B-rank genjutsu with ease. Once the genjutsu is broken the opponent will be able to use the Uzugan albeit on a limited scale in addition to their original dojutsu eye techniques. This blindness is triggered for an additional chakra price and those who are immune to genjutsu or resistant to B-rank genjutsu or above are not affected by it. When the target's dojutu has been converted the user's personality will be able to see out of their opponents eyes allowing it to easily scope out the opponents blind spots as well as trigger more powerful techniques. This technique is forbidden because with repeated use the user's eye will go permanently blind requiring an SSS-rank or above medical ninjutsu technique focusing on restoring ones eyesight to increase the number of uses by 1. Depending on the Dojutsu this technique is projected on however it might count towards multiple uses.

Name: Uzugan: Maelstrom Download
Classification: Kinjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Eye Contact

Description: Sun Pupil & Middle Rim as well as Target having already been affected by Uzugan: Maelstrom Infect in order to use. This technique was created by the progenitor of the Uzugan in order to serve it's purposes knowing fully well that there was the possibility for her descendants to not be pure Soulless. This technique involves the user eating the Uzugan infected eyes of a target (dead or alive) resulting in one of the points in their Sun Pupil changing into a purplish black color. This change is due to a forced mutation of the Uzugan as it adapts the abilities of what has been eaten into it allowing the Uzugan to shift gaining an additional form mimicking the abilties of the victims Uzugan Infected dojutsu. There are Eight (8) Points in their Sun Pupil total resulting on only eight different forms all of which when in use take their own activation & duration price in addition to the full power price of the Uzugan. When consuming Dojutsu to result in a point only the Specific activation of the Dojutsu is available not any lower or any higher nor can one progress further or revert to a lower stage. (I.E a 2nd Stage Kyougan is eaten, when First Point is active the abilities of a 2nd Stage Kyougan only become active while costing the activation price of a 2nd Stage Kyougan + Sun Pupil to manifest & the maintenance price of both to keep active)

Name: Uzugan: Arashi Illusion Style
Classification: Genjutsu
Rank: S-rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Eye Contact

Description: The Arashi Illusion style centers around the Uzugan a dojutsu which was brought into being through the mutation of four powerful dojutsu. The upper limits of it's capabilities have yet to be reached however one thing is for sure, it is meant for combating other dojutsu. This technique was created by Lex Arashi during his tenure as an Ibaragakure shinobi before his defection. This illusion style is ocular based with those possessing the Uzugan making eye-contact with another Dojutsu user who is able to see the Uzugan as blind opponents are immune. The main premise is being able to cast genjutsu which completely bypass the Dojutsu check, essentially causing opponents to be unable to rely on their dojutsu to instantly dispel/grant immunity or identify when genjutsu is being utilized on them. When the dojutsu in question is one of those possessed in the user's 8 Sun Pupil Markings however they (the victim) become unable to deactivate their dojutsu while under the effect of a genjutsu cased via this illusion style often resulting in forced deactivation due to fatigue or death due to chakra loss.

This is monitored by their Sanity Limit which is always 1/4 of their max fatigue limit, like all other Sanity Limit variations. This essentially acts as a gauge for their ability to come back after utilizing their curse Seal with every one of their turns in Stage 1 removing 0 from the bar due to being fully in control, Stage 2 removing -1 while Stage 3 removes -2. An Arashi clan member can do a weekly 1000 word training topic to extend the number of times they can reach their sanity limit without being permanently stuck in their Juinjutsu state without training it even once the Arashi will be trapped in a deranged state attacking anyone within the vicinity friend or foe and in absence of a target will engage in self mutiliation.

Name: Kazama Curse Mark
Classification: Juinjutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: A Heriditary Curse Seal which was a direct consequence of the union of Ryuujin Arashi & Lexiane Ulfric producing the mutation which gave rise to the Origin Curse Mark in their daughter Saeko U. Arashi. Saeko did extensive modifications on her own base cellular structure due to this resulting in advanced mutations passed on to her third child Kazama. The Curse seal named after it's progenitor is revolved around the Storm Release Kekkei Genkai with it's owner being unable to obtain variants due to them being expressed through varying transformations. These transformations work hand in hand with the Variant Storm Release they are expressly built for survival in said weather conditions. The Kazama Curse Mark line is in between the Origin & the Bachiatari Curse Seals in terms of ability to control with those that possess it being completely unable to train tiers naturally. It is a three stage curse mark, the first being fully controllable from birth which is activated 10 posts (total) into a topic granting D-rank Tiers across the board. It manifests as a darkening of the skin tone with the eyes changing in color to black scelera and white pupils, it produces the antigen to grant curse marks with a 9/10 fatality rate. If infected and it results in a fatality, without medical treatment the victim will be in agonizing pain until finally succumbing to death at the end of the topic. These curse marks are simply the Kazama Curse Mark of a random Storm Release variant with the highest stage being Stage 2, however all have the joint ability of  causing the victim to lose the ability to mold their chakra becoming something similar to a True All Taijutsu user yet not being able to obtain the benefits from it.

Name: Cursed Nimbus
Classification: Juinjutsu/Taijutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Self

Description: The Kazama Curse variant of the original Nimbus technique which is produced by an Arashi Clan Member with their Kazama CM active. It shares the properties of the original Nimbus and can be utilized interchangeably with it however it has two additional properties which are unique to it. The first being that it is harmful to those who possess Natural Energy with those who inhale the Cursed Nimbus losing a C-rank of NE each post (total) they remain within it & continue to breathe. The second difference is it's durability in regards to Natural based techniques with each Nimbus cloud sustaining an additional rank of Natural Damage equal to it's durability before it is destroyed.

Name: Cursed Fluids
Classification: Juinjutsu/Kinjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: While transformed the fluid of the user of the Kazama CM is filled with the antigens which can spread the Kazama Curse Mark, these antigens are lethal to those it is introduced to possessing a 1/10 dice roll (Dice roll of 1) of a victim surviving it. The user's bodily fluids are capable of triggering this effect through three ways, the first being saliva which has a 1/100 chance of infecting a target (100 Dice Roll), the second being through sex which has a 1/4 chance (75 + Dice Roll) of infecting a target and finally through blood contact which has a 50 percent chance of infecting a target (2 Dice Roll use Day/Night). These fluids are essentially a gateway for more refined techniques of their usage with those possessing the Kazama C.M capitalizing on the lethality of their bloodline.

Name: Curse of the Firestorm
Classification: Juinjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Requires Kazama CM stage 1 to be active and can be triggered after 20 posts (total) into the topic. In this mode the user's appearance is altered as red flame markings appear on their fists, shoulders, and chest. Their arm size increases especially in the forearms as each arm grows in size till they are about 3 times as wide as normal. The reason for this is simply the large cannon protrusions in them which number at three. Two on the top side of their forearms and then one hole at the shoulder. The rest of the user's body similarly becomes more bulky and muscular and their hair actually growing drastically in length reaching all the way down to this forms legs and wildly spiking outward. In this form the user grows in height being about 9 ft tall if they are shorter than that or 12 ft if they are least 6 ft in height making them equal in size to a Medium (M) or Medium (L) creature respectively while they gain A-rank Strength, B-rank Defense and C-rank Endurance while possessing A-rank Strength, A-rank Defense & B-rank Endurance when uncontrolled.
- The first power of this form lies in the arms. These cannons are able to cycle bodily fluids as well as the antigens comprising through the user's body at a high speeds (equal to rank) before refining it to make it extra potent. This condensed curse seal as well as other bodily fluids can now be launched at opponents within either Firestorm Variant Storm Release Cursed Nimbus (CS) or a liquid bullet, the size of a small sized creature, which deals an initial searing damage but also has the ability to directly infect opponents through the sweat emerging from their pores as a result of it. Unlike the normal Curse Seal: Spread the survival rate of opponents hit by this technique is further lowered this time being reduced to a pitiful 20 to 1 ratio (2 Dice Roll of 1) in addition due to the refinement of the cursed seal the blood price for using this technique has been dropped to D-rank as in comparison to the original unrefined raw version of this technique this uses a lot less of the user's blood to synthesize the Curse Seal which comprises this technique.
- The second power of this form lies in the overall composition which grants an improved resistance to high temperatures thanks to her physiology. The user's resistance to them has been improved by 1-rank actually lowering the damage inflicted upon them by heat based elements namely: Fire, Blaze, Plasma & Explosive Release, while reducing the damage dealt to the user by Firestorm Variant Storm Release techniques by 2-ranks.
- The final power of this form lies in it's adaptation by cycling the Storm Release Chakra into system, he/she can increase their adrenaline as well as body temperature to extremely high levels allowing them to literally burn out foreign things in the body if they are not launched outward via the first ability of this form such as poison, diseases and other ailments which hinder the user's combat ability at the cost of double the fatigue price equal to said ailments rank. Due to the destructive nature of this ability the user is able to burn out the effects of such things within 10 posts (total) which can be shortened to 5 posts if the user has lost control over their mind and is int heir  uncontrolled blood lust state.

Name: Curse of the Thunderstorm
Classification: Juinjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Requires Kazama CM stage 1 to be active and can be triggered after 20 posts (total) into the topic..  In this form the user's appearance is altered as purple lightning bolts appear on their body first as a crown, then around the waist and on the user's ankles. Their body takes on an altered physiology as they becomes thinned out and serpentine, with mid section extending longer than normal along with the user growing a tail which further extends their length. Their arms and legs in this form are also altered albeit slightly with both gaining claws and being positioned in such a way that the overall form resembles a serpentine lizard of sorts. The most peculiar thing on the user's body being their tail as it splits into a prong like appearance at the end yet cackles as if thunder clouds are present inside of it. In this form the user grows in length being about 9 ft tall if they are shorter than that or 12 ft if they are least 6 ft in height making them equal in size to a Medium (M) creature while they gain A-rank Speed, B-rank Barrier and C-rank Strength while possessing A-rank Speed, A-rank Barrier & B-rank speed when uncontrolled.
- The first power of this form lies in the body the innate flexibility of this form allow for a fluid yet unpredictable combat form that allows the user to slip between blows to lash out at her opponent. However the true danger lies in the ability for user's to stretch and retract their mid section and tail being able to further extend the reach of their body by an additional 4 feet briefly making them equal in length to a Medium (L) sized creature.
- The second power lies in the user's fangs which ooze with chakra making it seem as if she possesses venom when in reality she does not. This unique trait shows its true power when she bites into opponents forcibly injecting the user's Thunderstorm Variant Storm Release chakra into their chakra system which acts to impede their use of chakra unless it is of the Lightning Release and decreasing the amount of chakra by varying amounts depending on the technique utilized. Each bite results in lowering her own chakra reserves however when injected into a target they lose the ability to naturally replenish their lost chakra even though their chakra reserves are in fact fine this is due to the user's chakra clogging up the victims chakra pathway system which can't be fixed unless the victim utilizes a Medical Kinjutsu technique focusing on fixing chakra system damage.
- The final power lies in the tail which acts like a lightning rod to draw electricity using techniques towards the user's body. The reason for this lies in the physiology of this cursed state which is able to revitalize her body when electricity is ran through it, replenishing one's fatigue by varying levels depending on the rank of Lightning release technique coursed through the user. This allows one to electrify things around themselves with no limit knowing that it can not affect them in any way other than beneficial results.

Name: Curse of the Duststorm
Classification: Juinjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Requires Kazama CM stage 1 to be active and can be triggered after 20 posts (total) into the topic. In this form the user is altered as numerous dots appear all over their back each one widening before spikes emerge from them. The user's body changes becoming something reminiscent to an armadillo as large plates appear over their skin the spikes emerging through holes in the middle of them. Their body gains a stocky build even gaining an armor plating over the face which completely covers everything save for two eye holes which allow the user to see. Their hands and feet alter in shape and grow wider now resembling saw blades and the only part of the body not covered by the plates or spikes being their stomach area which has a diamond like mark on it. In this form the user increases in height being about 6 ft tall if they are shorter than that or 9 ft if they are at least 6 ft in height making them equal in size to a Medium (S) creature while they gain A-rank Defense, B-rank Endurance and C-rank Barrier while possessing A-rank Defense, A-rank Endurance & B-rank Barrier when uncontrolled.
- The first power of this form lies in the ability of the user to literal curl themselves into a ball to tank damage from attacks as the plates lower the amount of damage physical attacks deal to them by one before calculating defense tiers. In addition the user is able to launch the spikes on their body at opponents at varying speeds revolving around techniques however in order to grow them back she has to pay a D-rank blood price for each non technique altered spike regrown. The spikes themselves are hardened and the force in which the are launched from her body allow them to pierce through objects dependent on the force they are launched at.
- The second power of this form rests in the user's hands and feet as by coursing chakra through them they are able to sense the vibrations in the ground made by opponents running on it or moving underneath allowing the user to learn and utilize Vibration sensory techniques. While the user can only sense movement via Vibrations it is still useful as advanced uses result in a highly effective sensory medium for most opponents.
- The third power lies in the diamond on the stomach which acts as a focal point for gathering chakra allowing the user to literally project powerful beams, blasts and other attacks comprised chakra from the stomach which deal chakra based damage with techniques to substitute the need for hand seals due to chakra being poured into her stomach, the only restricting factor being the user quickly burning through their chakra reserves while using it repetitively. Every technique utilized through this method now possesses a cooldown starting at 4 posts (total) at D-rank increasing by +4 per rank of technique.

Their body size is actually decreased as they becomes smaller however her chest size is increased with in female user's their breasts vanishing instead replaced by stretchy skin which can be expanded which the males gain as wel. The throat likewise has 4 parallel holes running down its sides. The user's skin as a whole becomes translucent with a cold waxy feel as if their was no blood circulating within it. In this form the user decreases in in height being about 6 ft tall if they are taller than that or 3 ft if they are at most 5 ft in height making them equal in size to a Medium (S) creature while they gain A-rank Endurance, B-rank Defense and C-rank Speed while possessing A-rank Endurance, A-rank Defense & B-rank Speed when uncontrolled.
- The first power of this form lies in the chest cavity which expands as air is sucked into the user's body by the holes on their throat, this air is used to bring out the Snowstorm Variant Storm Release chakra from the user's body allowing them to exhale frigid Cursed Nimbus which hover around their body. These mists while cold enough to cause chill victims and caused hypothermia with advanced techniques actually serve a dual purpose for those which can survive the cold as it numbs the pain dealt to their body while simultaneously numbing opponents body lowering their reaction speed by variable ranks based on techniques unless they are either immune to the cold completely or able to warm themselves back up.
- The second power of this form lies in the skin as the organ literally masks the user, radiating no heat from the user's body as all of their heat is being kept bottled up inside. This allows the user herself to survive in frigid temperatures without much difficulty as cold based techniques are lowered by 1-rank while Snowstorm Variant Storm Release techniques are lowered by 2-ranks in damage when the user is hit by them.
- The final power of this form lies in the physiology as the user is able to cycle Snowstorm Variant Storm Release chakra through their body to drastically slow their heart rate, body functions essentially putting themselves in an icy coma to forcibly stop the spread of toxins, diseases, as well as bleeding out and like wise placing anything within their body in an icy coma as well. When combined with techniques granted by this form the user can literally freeze out things inside of their body while they are in a coma killing them off due to the cold before re-emerging out of the coma. While in the coma the user is literally comatose and is unable to do anything for at least 3 posts (total) at S-rank increasing by +3 posts per lower rank capping at 15 posts (total) at D-rank, before they come out of it. Their body functions are likewise in a pause as functionally they are "dead" yet still being alive due to their chakra system flowing normally.

The user's body structure becomes lighter than normal to facilitate flight while their back gains a unique structure similar to a jet engine which juts outward yet doesn't get in the way of their wings. The user's facial structure remains the same save for their eyes enlarging slightly along with the bottom of the jaw gaining blade like protrusions on either side. In this form the user increases in in height being about 6 ft tall if they are shorter than that or 9 ft if they are at most 5 ft in height making them equal in size to a Medium (M) creature with their wings folded. Their wings however are quite large each being 9 ft long giving them a wing span of 18 ft which gives them a size of Medium (XL) creature with both expanded while they gain A-rank Reaction, B-rank Speed and C-rank Strength while possessing A-rank Reaction, A-rank Speed & B-rank Strength when uncontrolled.
- The first power of this form lies in the odd structure on the user's back which cycles Galestorm Variant Storm Release chakra within it to releasing potent vortexes of Gale which are able to boost the user's movement speed at the cost of burning out their chakra reserves which is harnessed via techniques.
- The second power lies in interior of the body as the user in this form is amphibious being possessing a set of gills which allow them to breath underwater as well. While in water the wings act in place of flippers allowing her to "fly" just as easily underwater as they are able to in air instead of the movement speed reduction most people have while underwater. The user's body structure's light weight also plays a factor in this as in this form she possesses not bone but merely hardened cartilage giving them a nice advantage against those who rely on normal human physiology to attack their opponents skeletal structure.
- The final power lies in the user's eyes as their vision is improved greatly allowing them to see far farther than normal actually extending her vision to 1 mile with the pupils being able to enlarge and shrink in order to "zoom" in on things that attract their interest in this range this works hand in hand with their reaction tiers. When coupled with the Eye of the Storm this becomes a useful technique as she is able to detect the subtle wind changes at a farther distance than before not to mention focus on each individual wind change in the process. These eyes possess two eye lids doubling the length of Eye of the Storm due to this as the primary one and then a secondary one which is transparent and only closed when the user is underwater or in conditions which can obscure eyesight so that she is able to see better underneath, due to the lack of air underwater one would think the user's eyes would be useless however that is not the case as she is able to see the water flows just as clearly giving her impeccable vision even deep underwater.

When using the Armour at full power, it causes their clothing, hair and other things to whip around viciously as if they were in the middle of a storm, and their eyes to glow white when seen with chakra vision. The number of post (total) the user can maintain this technique is not only based on their skill level but likewise their Endurance Tiers. Likewise thanks to surrounding their body with Storm Release the user is encased in it requiring a S-rank Defense Piercing hybrid (& equivalents) technique good against Storm Release to even damage them.

Description: This is a powerful technique within the Arashi Clan which can be considered one of their few techniques to actually make use of hand seals (Rat → Tiger → Dog → Snake → Dragon). During the formation of these hand seals the Arashi Clan member will incorporate Nimbus Clouds using Cloud Control in order to infuse the technique with their strength altering the color of the beams generated by this technique as well as the statuses inflicted by them when they come in contact with an opponent. First, a halo of bright energy spreads around the user's hands as this technique is activated blinding those who possess Electrolocation or Water Displacement Sensory, then it encircles the user's hand requiring a set amount of time to do so and from that, the beams are shot out towards the enemy with a base speed of S-, however with a peak speed of Ripping Discord with extremely skilled users. The user is able to alter the beam's direction after being shot, making it possible to strike multiple enemies with pinpoint accuracy, even bypassing hostages held in close proximity making any beams fired by this technique extremely difficult to avoid if an opponent lacks S-rank Reaction Tiers + Either a Time-Slowing Dojutsu or an S-rank Displacement Sensory Technique. Depending on their rank the user can also increase the number of beams to a great amount to pin down an enemy by cutting off their routes to escape. This is due to the fact that the user is capable of controlling each beam individually in order to capitalize on a dodge, requiring 1 Tier Level Higher in Speed or Reaction in order to dodge successive ones. The damage each beam is capable of inflicting is based on the type of Nimbus used to fuel this technique and it is not uncommon for an Arashi to use this technique to cull the numbers of Nimbus Clouds they have on the field at once as the process of converting a Nimbus into beams results in their destruction. To that end the amount of damage this technique is based on a number of factors such as the type of Nimbus Cloud used, the types of Storm Release Nimbus clouds harness and the number of Nimbus clouds put into the technique.
