| - Isley Style Kenjutsu:
*Note: Most of these techniques are renames or simply replacing mentions of specific characters/classes/clans with "Isley".
Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Description: The Isley are a family known for their prowess in all things concerning Kenjutsu, and despite being a family rather than a clan their capabilities with a sword far surpass that of clans who claim to be masters of Kenjutsu, such as the Erlang or the Chromatica. Their prowess is due to several factors, including the presence of Samurai and Cypher heritage within most if not all blood members of the family, the integration of several different sword styles into their own arsenal and the extensive study of long lost sword practices. These factors have made the Isley Family the most varied swordsmen history has come to know, as well as the most feared and dangerous. This variation ensures that the Isley have no set style or form, but rather each member forges their own method of swordsmanship whether through making styles from scratch, modifying other styles they've learned or fusing their styles together to form something new. There is one thing that all Isley styles have in common, and that is a focus on speed, perception or both, often generating a fusion that makes it so enemies who are incapable of keeping up with the Isley's strikes will fall victim to a flurry of blades, while also enabling the user to combat the likes of Muscle Tension, Time Slowing Dojutsu and those with Precognition or Premonition. The Isley are unique in that all of their techniques are available to be retrained as though one were a True All Taijutsu Shinobi, whether they are one or not. This allows them to grow the strength of their techniques through refining and perfecting their form, rather than simply learning and using the basic, promoting the ideal of mastery through perfection.
Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Full Moon Stance
Classification: Fighting Style (Male or T.A.T. Only)
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Self (Req. Katana/Nodachi)
Description: This is a style of Isley Kenjutsu that was assimilated into the family's arsenal during the reign of Xander I. Isley as the patriarch. Added once Hiroshima D. Isley, born Hiroshima Denkou, was adopted by the Bloody Ruler, the style has since been adapted for use by those who do not possess the Raidengan or other skills of the Denkou. With this style, the user wields one blade with both hands on the hilt foregoing the use of hand seals in exchange for a more reactive style of Kenjutsu. The Full Moon Stance is very passive, prone to watching opponents with an active sensory medium or Reaction in order to gauge their movements and waiting for the right moment to then strike and thus land a decisive blow, in order to finish an opponent. Activation delays can be added to any Isley Style Kenjutsu in order to bypass Reaction tiers and thus ensure the chance of a successful strike if opponents are unable to escape in time or lack the strength to properly block the attack (Req. Sam Lvl Strength to block any Kenjutsu used in this stance if opponent only uses 1 arm to hold their weapon). However during this observation they are unable to attack lest they prematurely gauge an opponents movement and thus leave themselves open to a counter-counter attack by an opponent requiring them to possess Reaction Tiers 1-rank below to the speed the incoming attack is moving at to dodge.
Wait time P.T - Reaction Tier Bypassed - Sensory/Reaction (Both) Modifer
10 - D - D (-2/-3/-5 PT)
20 - C - C (-4/-6/-10 PT)
30 - B - B (-6/-9/-15 PT)
40 - A - A (-8/-12/-20 PT)
50 - S - S (-10/-15/-25 PT)
*Note: Tier+ Reaction adds an extra -5 Reduction, Tier++ adds -10 and 1-Rank Tier- adds -15.
Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Twin Moon Stance
Classification: Fighting Style (Female or T.A.T. Only)
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Self (Req. Twin Swords)
Description: This is a style of Isley Kenjutsu that was assimilated into the family's arsenal during the reign of Xander I. Isley as the patriarch. Added once Hiroshima D. Isley, born Hiroshima Denkou, was adopted by the Bloody Ruler, the style has since been adapted for use by those within the Isley who do not have any Denkou roots. the user wields two blades rather than one foregoing the use of hand seals in exchange for a more aggressive style of Kenjutsu. The Twin Moon stance is very acrobatic favoring twirls and rapid slashes in quick succession and is graceful like an exotic dance which hides it's dangerous nature. Spins can be added to any of the Isley Style Kenjutsu once this technique is learned in order to deal more grievous wounds to inflict constant bleed damage on opponents. However if the user spins too much they become dizzy resulting in them falling if running at Max Tier levels while moving above that results in them vomiting for a set amount of posts depending on their endurance tiers making them incapable of action and thus missing said posts.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Iaido
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: D-rank (Cypher Only)
Class: Offensive
Range: Close (Proximity to Trigger), Short (+Displacement Aura)
Description: This style was integrated into the Isley through the influence of Xander I. Isley, Zaku Isley and even the traitorous Cleopatra T. Isley, though it has since been modified for use by those within the Isley clan who do not possess a complete Cypher heritage. Iaido refers to a specific style of kenjutsu that is concerned with the smooth, controlled movements of drawing the sword from its scabbard, striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade, and then replacing the sword in the scabbard. The linear motion and force applied to draw the sword from its scabbard result in much faster slashes than ones realized with the sword already drawn. This is used by Isley due to their mastery of Kenjutsu and sword based combat, which allows them to literally stop opponents from preforming equal rank Ninjutsu if they are within a set distance of the opponent and use this technique. If the opponent doesn't stop however they will sustain damage thus interrupting them from completing their technique and causing them to waste the chakra used in the technique requiring hand-seals. Iaido is very specific in it's timing and proximity to determine the exact speed at which an Iaido technique can intercept hand seals at a set speed, Iaido techniques are by definition Contact range, any time an Iaido technique has any rage above Contact (Short, Mid & or Long) it means it involves the use of Displacement Aura, the Samurai Saber Technique or any other techniques that specialize in extending the range of their Kenjutsu.
Proximity to Opponent - Hand-Seal Speed Interrupted
5ft - Equal-Rank (For Example D-rank Speed)
4ft - Equal-rank+ (For Example Swift Release)
3ft - Equal-rank++ (For Example D-rank Speed+Strength)
2ft - 1-rank- Higher (For Example C-rank- Speed)
1ft - 1-rank Higher (For Example C-rank Speed)
Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Stumbling Edge
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: C-Rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Description: This is a hybrid Taijutsu and Kenjutsu fighting style which was created by Xan I. Isley to perfectly blend his Erasure of Iaido with Shunpo, but has since been integrated into the Isley Family arsenal for use by those members of the family that do not posses the creator's exact skill set. While made for Xander's own Kenjutsu, it can be applied to any type of Kenjutsu as long as the user utilizes Shunpo as a movement base. While utilizing this fighting style user loosens their body before moving towards their opponent seemingly unfocused often stumbling and seeming to trip over nothing. This causes opponents to underestimate them and despite seeming to be uncoordinated in the movement they have a unique sense of balance being able to stumble and trip out of the way of incoming attacks and turn seemingly clumsy mistakes into deadly strikes. While using this fighting style, the user is capable to making use of their Shunpo techniques without making use of the falling forward motion rather any type of fall can be used to initiate it.
Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Tuning Blade
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: C-rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Description: This is a Kenjutsu fighting style created by Xander I. Isley for his own use as well as his Heir's, however it has since been adapted for use by those Isley who do not possess the user's exact skill set. The Tuning Blade kenjutsu fighting style revolves around the user striking a physical object with the tip of their blade causing it to vibrate with the displaced kinetic energy from the impact. This causes the blade to emit a tuning sound similar to metal clanging against something. These vibrations result in a serrated cut which is made possible by the user freeing their body completely to conserve the vibration within the blade while dealing strain to their form due to the constant vibrations. While usually it would be painful the originator of this style is incapable of feeling pain and as such it doesn't affect him visibly as it would others. The use of this fighting style deals damage to the user as a trade off for being capable to pierce through defenses when used with Kenjutsu techniques while dealing multiple cuts to an object as a result of the vibrations depending on the amount of damage dealt.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Dissection Blade
Classification: Medical Ninjutsu
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Contact
Description: Despite being a traitor Cleopatra T. Isley's contributions to the Isley Family are not to be denied as her skill was able to apply knowledge meant for healing into a deadly killing art. This is a fighting style created to diversify the utilization of the Chakra Scalpel Technique, and to increase it's application in both medical uses as well as for combat purposes. Like the original technique even the most skilled medic is unable to utilize the Chakra Scalpel technique to deliver fatal cuts however this fighting style is aimed towards improving the viability of using the Chakra Scalpel technique in conjunction with normal combat. Despite perverting the original intentions of the technique Dissection Blade remains at it's core a Medical Ninjutsu fighting style as it's combat applications can also be applied to surgery.
Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Dual Wielding
Classification: Kenjutsu
Original Rank: C
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: C
Class: Passive
Range: Self
Description: Two Blade's brought about two different styles of combat and thus new tactics when it came to utilizing Kenjutsu, and such the Isley began to refine their use of Kenjutsu to incorporate these modifications more fully in battle. While utilizing Kenjutsu techniques, the user is able to make use of their kenjutsu striking twice rather than once. The first strike is made with their mainhand sword while the follow up is made by the offhand sword, geared at capitalizing on a victim's initial response be it block or dodge. This is usually done with a Daisho pair (longsword-shortsword combination), however when using swords of the same length &/or weight either can be swung first further confusing an opponent. This ensures that they able to dish out death twice as effectively as before and those who block the first strike but do not keep up their defense a moment later (1 Post Total) will suffer from the damage of the follow up strike.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Two Handed
Classification: Kenjutsu
Original Rank: C
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: C
Class: Passive
Range: Self
Description: To slice with one hand is fancy and wasteful, though any Isley would admit it is useful for those who wished to have a free hand to do something else, however the amount of power or speed one is capable of generating with two hands in comparison to one is superior without sacrificing any control what so ever. This is most notable in regards to delivering strikes with a two handed grip being able to overpower those strikes backed by a one handed grip unless they are backed by sufficient strength or possess a parrying technique. When overpowering an opponent their weapon can be knocked out of their hand a set distance depending on the speed of his incoming two-handed sword swing.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Batto
Classification: Kenjutsu
Original Rank: B
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: B
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self
Description: The originator of the infamous Geka Seido Fighting Style was none other than the patriarch of the Isley that changed the face of their Kenjutsu forever: Xander I. Isley. However, before he could create that style he had to first search for the origins of Iaido, unearthing the ancient Kenjutsu art of Batto. Unrefined Batto is applicable to any sort of Kenjutsu as it is simply the art of drawing a blade to initiate and attack in one fluid motion and to sheathe said blade in such a way that it seems as if the user hasn't unsheathed it at all while flicking any lingering blood away in the process. The speed of the draw is so quick that depending on the spacing it can outspeed incoming kenjutsu techniques to finish drawing to intercept them before they reach the individual. Likewise due to this speed draw it actually requires a Time-Slowing Dojutsu with Reaction Tiers (such as the Raidengan), Iai Prediction/Precognition + Muscle Tension, or reaction tiers above the user's speed to actually see the blade as it's being drawn. To all others they either only see the blade when it is drawn (Time-Slowing, Equal Rank Reaction, Muscle Tension, Iai Prediction/Precognition, Equal Sensory Mediums etc), or are unable to comprehend when the user draws their weapon if lacking some form of sensory.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Battojutsu
Classification: Fighting Style
Original Rank: C
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: C
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self (Sword), Contact
Description: The ancient Kenjutsu art of Batto in it's refined state differs from it's successor style Iaido due to what is done after the blade is unsheathed. Due to the samurai who created this style being wiped out by the shinobi during the Era of Warring States out of fear only the legendary tales of swordsmen capable of drawing and slicing an opponent in one moment were what was left and thus what was used to create Iaido. Battojutsu is more than that, or more specifically unlike Iaijutsu which allows one to master the art of unsheathing and sheathing one's blade Battojutsu allows one to incorporate multiple cuts after unsheathing. This is stressful on the body to preform quickly fatiguing those who are not skilled enough to refine their muscle memory and have not learned how to control their breathing precise enough to get the most out of each breath. A master of Battojutsu was said to draw their blade once and by the time they sheathed their blade they had already felled a hundred shinobi. Due to the sheer amount of strikes capable with one blow Battojutsu those without Time-Slowing Dojutsu are unable to see the strikes of the Batto practitioners blade. Those with Muscle Tension or Iai Prediction/Precognition etc can determine where the Batto user is aiming however and thus can gauge how to block albeit not being able to actually see the slashes.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Way of Kendo
Classification: Fighting Style
Original Rank: C (Recoil Damage)
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: C
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self (Req. Bokken), Contact
Description: An ancient Kenjutsu style which had thought to have been wiped out by the shinobi during the era of warring states, Kendo is typically used in combat with opponents much faster than the user. Using their strength tiers the user swings their weapon causing them to boost the speed of their slashes due to their impressive strength. Fighting in such a way however often leaves a user vulnerable tot hose with the reaction tiers to capitalize on it as a result the Way of Kendo requires constant refining of ones technique to reduce said openings. In addition due to each blow being back by strength each strike is potentially fatal, typically breaking through weapons and armor to slice opponents apart with physical crushing force (defense piercing) equal to the user's strength. The Isley Family learned how to utilize Kendo even with the absence of strength utilizing Shunpo and the pull of gravity to generate enough force to match a normal Kendo strike. When utilizing both Shunpo as well as strength tiers this style of Kenjutsu is able to showcase it's true power. Due to the force of the impact with an opponent this fighting style always results in recoil damage to the user's arms equal to the rank of the technique being used.

Name: Isley Hiden - Displacement of Iaido
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Contact-Short
Description: Embracing both the philosophy of Iaido and utilizing Heating Effect in conjunction with it, has given rise to this unique fighting style which relies on using extremely fast drawing and re-sheathing to create friction to drastically increase the temperature of the blade mid slash allowing the user to cut through things like a hot knife through butter. This fighting style completely bypasses one's natural defenses due to the user cycling their heat release chakra through the blade via chakra flow while drawing their nodachi before using Iaido techniques to attack or defend themselves from attack. Depending on the skill level of the user while doing so they are capable of extending their basic kenjutsu a set distance before factoring in their Displacement Aura. When doing this rather than deal just physical damage the victim is dealt Heat Release physical damage instead. Due to the heat of the blade this style of kenjutsu can be considered counter weaponry as repeated impacts are capable of melting weapons; either comprised solely of metal (1-rank higher), with components which are metallic in nature (equal-rank) or those without metallic components or comprised of non-metals (1-rank below) to the user's own rank.

Name: Isley Hiden - Corrosion of Iaido
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: B-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Contact-Mid
Description: Embracing both the philosophy of Iaido and utilizing Jar of Acid in conjunction with it, has given rise to this unique fighting style which relies on fluid drawing and sheathing of a blade in order to cast trails of acid which follow the path and trajectory the user's tanto is swung at albeit being at a slightly higher temperature than normal which results in the acid corroding objects more aggressively. This fighting style eats through defenses given time due to the user cycling their Acid Release chakra through their tanto in conjunction with the Acid materia stored in the jar like sheathe which is used to vastly extend the range of one's kenjutsu while using one's displacement aura in order to shape it as it moves through the air. This makes this style of kenjutsu more suitable to a rapid offensive constantly pressing defenses while the acid left behind inflicts corrosion damage on them weakening them further. Depending on the skill level of the user the acid's corrosion effect varies with the more skilled the user is the faster said acid can corrode through stronger materials or techniques which are neutral to acid release.
Rank - Material/Technique (Physical/Mental/Chakra) - P.T till corroded through
D - Ferrous Metal/C - 30
C - Non-Ferrous Metal/B - 25
B - Other/A - 20
A - Sturdy Plant/S - 15
S - Precious Metal/SS - 10
Name: Isley Hiden - Attraction of Iaido
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: C-rank
Class: Defensive/Offensive
Range: Contact, Varies
Description: The Attraction of Iaido kenjutsu style is based purely on counter-weaponry and conversion of said weaponry into metallic powder form via a joint use of Magnet and Steel Release chakra flow being balanced in flux with the drawing of the user's blade. This fighting style is extremely fluid in terms of the weaponry it creates as the true weapon is the metallic powder yet it can be shaped and bound via magnetism into numerous bladed weapons to suit the situation like the katana, chokuto, nodachi, tanto even those not commonly linked to kenjutsu like the Naginata or Yari. Depending on the skill of the user when other metal based objects make contact with any of the user's blades they are taken apart on a structural level to become metallic powder and can be shaped at variable speeds into new weapons usually in the interval of drawing the blade, slashing and then sheathing it.

Name: Isley Hiden - Erasure of Iaido
Classification: Fighting Style
Original Rank: D
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: D
Class: Offensive
Range: Self
Description: Req. Direct descent from Xander Isley to learn. The Erasure of Iaido Kenjutsu fighting style is based on countering sensory techniques while the user is utilizing Iaido along with Chakra Suppression, Lack of Intent, and Focused Displacement. It revolves around a mastery of swordsmanship and the reading of movements to allow the user to mask their own movements based on the principles of these sensory techniques rendering them as well as their strikes "invisible". This concept can be used repeatedly and has 8 paths each dealing with a difference branch of sensory. These Paths are Displacement, Seismic, Echo, Olfactory, Ocular, Nervous, Living, Mind each corresponding to a specific sense in question.
