Heir to the Demon II [Dual Training]

Name: Tenmestu Style: Vacuum Release
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: N/A

Description: The Tenmestu Styles signature speed as the most famous members often use this in comparison to the other techniques. The user actually breaks the sound barrier upon use of this attack, their bodies are not even visible the only thing seen being a cloud of steam formed from them moving in the air formed by the vacuum left by the user.

Name: Shubi Style: Velocity Impact Scales
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A rank
Class:Passive
Range:Self

Description: The Shubi style defensive technique does not deal with nullifying physical force rather it deals with slowing, stopping and shattering impact forces on the user's body. This technique is the next step in doing such and proves itself to be even more of a impact force defense than a Ronin's defense tier. This is due to objects which deal physical damage to the user being slowed before being stopped and then proceeding to be shattered upon impacting the user's skin as long as they are moving at Vacuum Release speeds, and are dealing A-rank damage. This superiority has its benefits over the physical nullification due to it being counter offensive rather than defensive allowing a Shubi Style user to charge directly into battle without worry. When dealing with living opponents the same approach happens slowing down the appendage before impact, stopping it before dealing direct physical damage to them equal to a A-rank upon impact. This technique however only protects against physical damage inflicting objects, or techniques.

Name: Silent Killer (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Xan utilizes Silent Killing, however his use of it is not to ensure others do not hear him coming so that he can dispatch them without a sound, rather he preys on those who utilize Silent Killing and his unique form of Silent Killing does not use the cover of mist, fog or smoke rather the use of them merely compounds the effects. The Silent Killer technique makes use of sudden unpredictable movement and positioning to get into an opponents blind spot in a sudden instant preying upon the fact that within range of a persons eyes instead of actually seeing something the brain rather makes an assumption to fill in the fact that it isn't actually seeing something. Xan with his use of Muscle Tension, Lack of Intent & this technique is able to utilize this to his advantage entering his opponents Blind Spot and attacking from there rendering his physical attacks "Invisible" to normal eyesight and normal hearing. In addition when Chakra Suppression is used eyes with chakra vision as well as chakra sensory techniques are rendered null when used on him as his chakra is lowered to the point that it merely blends into the background. When under some form of cloak, be it mist, fog, smoke or whatever this extends to the practitioners of Silent Killing and while he will be able to register where they are they will not be able to sense the presence of his Kenjutsu.

Name: Shunpo: Bushin
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self, Eye-Sight (Target)

Description: Following the use of Shunpo, and making use of the user's speed he/she is capable of leaving speed afterimages of himself from simply moving faster than a victim is able to track. While ineffective against those who actually can see the user move when victims are unable to track him they will see seemingly solid copies of the user in various stages of attack deluding them into believing that they are seeing him/her while moving. This technique is capable of being used to great effect against those who are not only unable to detect the user's movement but are also slower than him/her with the disparity between their speed giving rise to them being hallucinating seeing additional "afterimages". These Afterimages are nothing but optical illusions, nothing is actually there the victims brain is simply incapable of processing that the user has in fact moved. Those with time-slowing dojutsu but are still unable to detect the user's movement see double the amount of afterimages due to their dojutsu playing catch up with his/her actual movement.
Speed Disparity Between User and those in affected by this technique - Bushin "seen" - Def Tiers to Negate
Equal Speed - 1 - D
1-rank - 2 - C
2-ranks - 4 - B
3-ranks - 6 - A
4-ranks = 8 - S
5-ranks = 10 - S+


[*]Second Stage - In this stage the eyes gain two more jagged patterns further improving the clarity of vision preventing motion blur from those moving at B-rank speed. The user's eyes are now capable of analyzing and recreating C-rank Lightning Release techniques upon seeing them in battle after which the Denkou can train them after the topic. In order to activate the user must possess 7 D-ranks, 5 C-ranks, 3 B-ranks & 1 A-rank Lightning Release technique.

Name: Lightning Release: Aural Stimulus
Classification: Nintaijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: By stimulating the electrical connections between the eye and the brain, Aural Stimulus enhances the eyesight and ability to track fast moving objects, even if their body is uncapable of keeping up with them. Unfortunately, this does not grant an equivalent increase to responses, making it more useful for observational purposes than fighting ones. With the Raidengan this is improved further allowing it to serve as a counter-concealment technique depending on which stage of the user's Raidengan is active as long as it is not specifically hidden against Electrolocation.
Raidengan - Concealment Technique Detection
Activation - D
Stg 1 - C
Stg 2 - B
Stg 3 - A

Cockatrice's Hilt's length = 4.5ft + Displacement Aura & Displacement Aura Enhanced = Hilt Blow from 10.5ft away. If Hiro lacks B-rank Endurance & it hits next post he will be forced to only gasp for air.
Displacement Blow = B-rank physical damage stretching over 5ft to Hiro's right side aimed at his floating ribs.
Hilt Blow Preformed with Lack of Intent & Muscle Tension Draw Battojutsu = Outspeeds incoming +2-ranks Higher Speed (Was Preformed at A+/Vacuum Release Speeds thus it will outspeed incoming SS+ rank speed.) Which thanks to Lack of Intent requiring 2-rank higher speed for those with a Time-Slowing Dojutsu + Reaction Tiers to be able to read his Kenjutsu, Hiro tracking Xan will not be able to read the Hilt Blow.

If tracked by a Time-Slowing Dojutsu depending on the speed disparity Hiro will be able to see a set amount of afterimages due to his Time-Slowing Dojutsu playing catch up. If equal he will see Xan still where the tree was as well as to his right making it seem as if Xan is in two places at once. If 1-rank below he would see Xan both at the tree and 3ft away from his right as well as in the middle of those two distances.

Name: Chakra Signature Suppression
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Chakra is a tool, and like all tools it has a time to be used and a time to be sheathed, because of that Xan has learned to sheath away his chakra lowering it to the bare minimum he needs to live and erasing his chakra signature at the cost of being unable to use chakra until the topic ends. This technique can be activated at any time however once done the user is unable to un-activate it and it doesn't cost anything to maintain. When Xan's chakra signature is erased he seems to be like a civilian with barely any chakra being able to be seen from him and those with chakra sensory are unable to pick him out in combat due to the low amount of chakra visible, however chakra sensory specifically geared to seeing suppressed chakra levels equal to his rank and above are able to locate him.

Name: Lack of Intent
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Xan's Kenjutsu is deadly not because he uses Iaido effectively but because he has no wasted movement nor indication that he is going to attack before he does. This is something cultivated through practice to eliminate any sign of muscle tension as well as traces of killing intent and is a specific counter to those who utilize dojutsu which slow down objects as their "prediction" becomes useless when faced with spontaneous movement. This coupled with speed equal to their rank makes Xan's kenjutsu attacks unreadable to their eyes negating the advantages that such dojutsu have over him in physical combat. When dealing with opponents with reaction tiers or fellow True All Taijutsu user's with Muscle Tension if he possesses speeds 1-rank above them, then his kenjutsu can not be read, when fighting normal opponents if he possesses speeds 1-rank below their own and above then his Kenjutsu can not be read. Assuming there was an opponent with both Reaction Tiers and a Dojutsu which slowed down movement speed or a Fellow All Taijutsu Cypher with Muscle Tension & Reaction Tiers then Xan would have to possess speeds 2-rank's above their own for his kenjutsu to be unable to be read. If there ever was an opponent however..that was an All Taijutsu Cypher with Reaction Tiers and a movement slowing Dojutsu..then in addition to Xan finally smiling he would have to move at speeds 3 ranks above their own for his kenjutsu to be unreadable.

Name: Displacement Blow
Classification: Taijutsu (Cypher Only)
Rank:B-rank
Class:Offensive
Range:Mid Range

Description: This technique is a practical application of their Displacement aura which causes them to deal a powerful Elbow strike to the opponent which extends up to 5 feet. If the opponent is hit by the actual blow they sustain B-rank damage in addition to their internal organs receiving C-rank damage causing all physical based techniques used as long as they are not healed to deal 1-rank higher damage than usual. If hit by the Displacement aura they sustain C-rank damage and get knocked flying back at Bullet release speeds.

Name: Geka Style - Hilt Blow
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: B-Rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Short

Description: Req. Sheathed Weapon. Often the Geka style samurai will not be allowed to fully unsheathe their blade when dealing with high speed opponents, as a result this technique was created as a counter to those who attempt to blitz the user by getting within super close range. The Geka style Samurai partially draws their Nagamaki using the long hilt to bludgeon their target like a stab, targeting their stomach or crotch. The result is; in the case of targeting the stomach the victim is forced to exhale causing their immediate post (total) after the attack hits to be a forced inhalation of air unless they possess B-rank Endurance Tiers or do not require air to breathe. In the case of targeting the crotch this technique inflicts intense pain on a victim dealing double damage if male and causing those without either Pain Immunity, Pain Resistance (If Female), B-rank Defense tiers or A-rank Endurance tiers to scream in agony while plummeting to the ground as their legs give out due to the pain in their immediate post (total) after the attack hits.

Name: Displacement Aura
Classification: Taijutsu (Cypher Only)
Rank:D-rank
Class:Passive
Range:Mid Range

Description: This technique stems from the amount of willpower people put into their blows, Cypher have learned to harness this willpower and translate it into a sort of an invisible physical aura which allows them to extend the range of their Taijutsu and Kenjutsu by 1 foot. Meaning if the blow seems like it didn't connect due to the opponent narrowly dodging it the blow will still hit them albeit at a 1-rank lower than the original damage simply due to the physical aura which envelops them in battle. This makes engaging in a physical battle with a Cypher a very high risk for amateurs in close ranged combat.

Name: Displacement Aura Enhanced
Classification: Taijutsu (Cypher Only)
Rank:C-rank
Class:Passive
Range:Mid Range

Description: This technique stems from the amount of willpower people put into their blows, Cypher have learned to harness this willpower and translate it into a sort of an invisible physical aura which allows them to extend the range of their Taijutsu and Kenjutsu by 5 feet. Meaning if the blow seems like it didn't connect due to the opponent narrowly dodging it the blow will still hit them albeit at a 1-rank lower than the original damage simply due to the physical aura which envelops them in battle. This makes engaging in a physical battle with a Cypher a very high risk for amateurs in close ranged combat.

Name: Geka Style - Batto Distance
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid

Description: The most important part of Geka Seido is the draw distance, which is based upon height, the taller one is the bigger the radius they are able to cover as their Batto Distance. This is likewise amplified by the use of a Nagamaki the two going hand in hand to create the optimal distance in which a Geka Style Samurai is able to unsheathe and simultaneously cut an opponent either incoming or attempting to flee. The draw speed of Geka Seido is perhaps among the, if not the, fastest among Kenjutsu and as a result it is often used to punish victims which get within range.
Height of Samurai - Nagamaki Length (Blade/Hilt) - Batto Distance
3 Feet & Below (1 Foot Arm Length) - 2/2.5 Feet - ~8 Feet
4 Feet (1.5 Feet Arm Length) - 2/2.5 Feet - 10 Feet
5 Feet (2 Feet Arm Length) - 3/3.5 Feet - ~ 14 Feet
6 Feet (2.5 Feet Arm Length) - 3/3.5 Feet -  15 Feet
7 Feet (3 Feet Arm Length) - 4/4.5 Feet - ~ 19 Feet

Name: Shunpo: Bushin
Classification: Kenjutsu/Kinjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Varies

Description: Making use of Xan's speed he is capable of leaving speed afterimages of himself from simply moving faster than a victim is able to track. While ineffective against those who actually can see Xan move when victims are unable to track him they will see seemingly solid Xan's in various stages of attack deluding them into believing that they are seeing Xan while moving. This technique is capable of being used to great effect against those who are not only unable to detect Xan's movement but are also slower than him with the disparity between their speed giving rise to them seeing additional afterimages. Afterimages are nothing but optical illusions, nothing is actually there the victims brain is simply incapable of processing that Xan has in fact moved. Those with time-slowing dojutsu but are still unable to detect Xan's movement see double the amount of afterimages due to their dojutsu playing catch up with his actual movement.

Name: Lightning Magic: Flashing Lights
Classification: Senjutsu
Rank: D
Class: Offensive
Range: Mid

Description: The user throws/discharges a small bolt of lightning from the hands towards the ground set to explode on impact. When the bolt explodes it creates a bright light 10ft in front of the user which blinds anyone in the area of affect except the user for two posts (total) and 1 post of blurred vision. Those with dojutsu however are blinded for double the duration, four posts (total) & 2 additional posts of blurred vision which in the case of those with Time-Slowing properties the blurred vision cancels out their ability to ultilize that specific effect.

A Rank Endurance

Name: Hoho (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: B-rank (Optional Blood Price Varies)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Req. Shunpo & Crescent Moon Edge. This movement style was created due to Hiro not wanting to make use of the Twin Moon Dance in general use, he figured it was too girly and sensual and much preferred the use of Shunpo to it. However Xan had a reason for forcing him to learn it which he discovered when trying to mix the two together. He wanted him to learn how to move fluidly and gracefully in an unpredictable fashion. This style was made to complement the Crescent Moon Edge style of Kenjutsu and is fatiguing to the body as without endurance tiers the user will consume double the fatigue by attempting to use it at all. However it is superior to both of it's components by virtue of allowing the user when it is in use to match Samurai Level Speed yet remain unable to be read by those with Muscle Tension at the cost of a blood price in the case of the latter. Due to this increase in speed it is even difficult for those with Time-Slowing Dojutsu to accurately gauge the user's movement as they require Reaction Tiers equal rank (Or the Raidengan or a Premonition/Precognition Dojutsu) to the user's speed to predict his/her movements.

Name: Hoho: Shadowless Flight
Classification: Taijutsu
Original Rank: C
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: C
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Hoho is primarily a movement style, and to that extent due to being based on the fundamentals of the Twin Moon Dances it can be used interchangeably with them at the cost of dropping the sensual nature in exchange for becoming harder to read. This of course is completely without the blood price cost but rather the normal purely physical way of utilizing Hoho is capable of being added on to any of the Twin Moon Dance Routines via retraining this technique starting at Crescent Routine and with the final retraining ending at Full Routine.
No of Retrainings - Routine Shadowless Flight is added onto
0 (C) - Crescent Routine
5 (B) - Quarter Routine
10 (A) - Gibbous Routine
15 (S) - Full Routine


Name: Twin Moon Dance: Gibbous Routine
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: The Denkou user, moves their body in an elaborate playful dance step resulting in opponents reliant on muscle tension to be unable to predict their movements, due to being a dance it is tiring and Denkou without A-rank Endurance Tiers will consume double (2x) the stamina in comparison to the normal use of speed when using this technique. Likewise it can be used as a subtitute for A-rank speed tiers by those of the Denkou Clan with most female Denkou preferring to learn the Twin Moon Dance over the usual method of bolstering their speed through training.

Name: Lightning Magic: Super-Vibrato Blade
Classification: Kenjutsu/Senjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Self (Blade)

Description: This is an advanced natural energy flow technique which the user channels Lightning Magic  in order to greatly increase their cutting power through high-frequency vibrations granting defense piercing & Lightning Magic damage equal to a B-rank while the vibrating effect results in a motion blur preventing the user's Kenjutsu from being read by B-rank or below weapon perception techniques such as Iai Prediction. This technique is aimed at allowing said weapons imbued with lightning to maintain that charge for a set amount of time before requiring a fresh natural energy price even when not in contact with the user rather than constantly draining from the user's natural energy reserves which is based on their skill level.

Name: Denkou Style Kenjutsu: Eclipse Whirlwind
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short

Description: Req. Full Moon Stance. Based on the principle of Denkou Style Kenjutsu of mixing high speed Kenjutsu with the perception ability of their Raidengan in order to read an opponents movements and strike true the user, holds their blade in a ready position with both hands on the hilt the blade horizontal to their body before suddenly pivoting on their heel, spinning like a top to inflict B-rank slicing damage on those within 15ft of them. Likewise while spinning projectiles such a kunai or shuriken being propelled at the user at up to Crashing Ground speeds without being backed by B-rank or above strength are knocked away from the user, depending on the user's skill level some of the projectiles can even be sent back in the direction of the opponent who threw them except this time at the same speed albeit being backed by B-rank force.

Xan's Displacement Aura (+Focused Displacement & Displacement Aura Enhanced) = 12ft.
Batto Distance = 19ft
Maximum Distance Xan's Kenjutsu can hit Hiro = 31ft.
Strike of Disgrace aimed at hands holding holding Blade at Vacuum Release Speed + Lack of Intent + Muscle Tension Draw = Outspeeds incoming +2-ranks Higher Speed (Was Preformed at A+/Vacuum Release Speeds thus it will outspeed incoming SS+ rank speed.) Which thanks to Lack of Intent requiring 2-rank higher speed for those with a Time-Slowing Dojutsu + Reaction Tiers to be able to read his Kenjutsu, Hiro tracking Xan will not be able to read the Strike of Disgrace. (Range = 31ft)

First Hilt Blow, since Hiro failed to utilize Muscle Tension to track it along with his Reaction Tiers & Time-Slowing Dojutsu he sustains the hit. Does not gasp for air due to A-rank Endurance Tiers. (Range = 27ft)

Hilt Blow Kenjutsu Mastery Chain (3-Hit Chain) Aimed at Crotch = Same as above except if hit inflicts intense pain on a victim dealing double damage if male. Meaning A-rank Pain x 3 = SS-rank Pain if all three hit Hiro's crotch which is enough pain to easily knock him unconcious. (Range = 27ft)

Name: Focused Displacement (Signature)
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Short

Description: Xan has focused his Displacement Aura limiting it to only affecting him when he is utilizing Kenjutsu, due to this it has become more potent and his Displacement Aura has doubled in size when it is being used in conjunction with a Kenjutsu attack, normal size when it is dealing with a Displacement styled technique and being completely non existent when used with Taijutsu or any other physical based technique.

Name: Kenjutsu Mastery
Classification: Kenjutsu
Original Rank: C
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: C
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Xan has hailed himself as something of a kenjutsu master, he knows it, those who have fought him or alongside him know it, and Hiro being Xan's apprentice not only knows it but will eventually be it. But what exactly does the title Kenjutsu master ultimately mean, to Hiro it means the ability to chain kenjutsu techniques in one flowing motion without pause and without hesitation like his mentor. This momentum is generated from the moment a kenjutsu strike is launched allowing Hiro to follow up with kenjutsu after kenjutsu to prey on those who attempt to simply outlast a strike. When this is done, the strikes work in tandem to bring down defenses which would otherwise negate them. This combined damage is dealt over and over while stacking like a combination technique to eventually weaken and thus cut through an existing defense or structure. When utilized in combination with Dual Wielding it's power truly shines as Hiro is capable of delivering kenjutsu strikes in a frenzy forcing victims to either keep up their defense until it is eventually sliced through, or loosen it and fall prey to the slash immediately after the last one dealt. Sure enough it has it's drawbacks as to unleash multiple strikes consecutively is tiring in terms of stamina depletion but the gain is well worth the risk.
No of retraining's (New Rank) - Number of Kenjutsu Chainable - Additional Fatigue Price Per Chain
0 (C) - 3 - 4
5 (B) - 4 - 3
10 (A) - 5 - 2
15 (S) - 6 - 1

Name: Geka Style - Strike of Disgrace
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid

Description: The Geka Seido version of Strike of Disgrace which involves a smooth draw which intercepts the use of hand seals or incoming targets within the Samurai's "Batto Distance" which targets the hands of the victim. This technique does not slice rather the impact with the victims hands results in all the bones within said hand shattering resulting in a mangled appendage to ensure they are unable to utilize Ninjutsu and techniques which require the use of two handed hand seals or that particular hand. This technique is capable of interrupting the use of Ninjutsu preformed at speeds equal the Geka style Samurai is swinging his/her blade while utilizing this technique, to sustain equal rank damage to the victims hand if they do not possess sufficient defense tiers to nullify the physical damage dealt or halt their formation of hand seals.
