Heir to the Demon II 1/2 [Dual Training]

Name: Hoho: Bound
Classification: Taijutsu
Original Rank: B
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: B
Class: Supplementary
Range: Contact (Skip), Short (Hop), Mid (Jump), Long (Leap)

Description: Hoho is not simply referring to the speed at which one can run but likewise refers to the speed at which they can jump and thus retain said momentum while in the air. Depending on the speed they are currently moving the user can skip (1 Leg no Blood Price), hop (1 Leg Blood Price), jump (2 Legs no Blood Price) or leap (2 Legs Blood Price) which allows them to essentially glide through the air while retaining their forward momentum without plummeting in the air. Unlike those incapable of Hoho, this technique allows it's user to move through the air without sinking doubling as a temporary air movement technique which is useful if attempting to move over dangerous terrain or gaps in the ground. Bound shows it's true potential when used as a set up for other techniques such as kenjutsu as it allows the user to preform aerial techniques even though they themselves are incapable of flight as they propel themselves horizontally, diagonally (distance covered halved), or even vertically (distanced covered quartered) towards their opponent.

Name: Silent Killing: Muffled Senbon
Classification: Shurikenjutsu
Original Rank: D
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: D
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: An advancement of the Silent Killing technique which involves being able to muffle the sound of one's thrown senbon requiring a sound sensory technique above B-rank, a Sound Release technique capable of detecting sound C-rank or above, or an acute sense of hearing. Due to the user's own skill in concealing the sound of their senbon they are likewise more perceptive to hearing when an opponent is throwing their own thus this technique likewise doubles as a sound sensory technique specific to detecting when another individual is throwing projectiles as long as they aren't smaller than senbon within the user's range of hearing.

Name: Manipulated Piercing Showers
Classification: Shurikenjutsu
Original Rank: B
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: B
Class: Offensive
Range: Self (Movement), Contact (Senbon Trail Radius), Long (Senbon Trail Length)

Description: The user throws multiple senbon in rapid succession each being propelled forward through the use of the drafts left by the user's Hirenkyaku leaving a trail of senbon behind the user stretching over 40ft as they glide forward. These senbon are accelerated to move 1-rank below the user's own speed while gaining B-rank piercing allowing them to inflict numerous puncture wounds on victims unfortunate enough to be within a 3ft radius of the user. The exact method of releasing the senbon differs as it can be done through various methods either physical removing and releasing the senbon as the user moves forward or relying on things such as the Lightning Flash Creation Blade seal to release the senbon from one's clothing during the movement to allow them to focus on doing other things. This technique can be used to great effect with other senbon techniques such as the Senbon Shadow Clone Techniuqe or Chidori Senbon though it shines when used alongside Magnet Release: Chidori Senbon as after a victim has been hit any additional normal senbon released will end up being magnetized towards the victim preventing escape.

Name: Blood Moon Stance (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style (T.A.T. Denkou Only)
Rank: A-rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive
Range: Self (Req. Twin Hookswords/Chokuto or 1/2 of the Following Wakizashi/Katana/Tanto)

Description: This additional stance is a hybrid of New Moon Blade, Crescent Moon Blade, Juinjutsu Status Effects & finally Batto taught by Xan Ibwa in order to make a Kenjutsu style truly worthy of the Isley name. Being his apprentice and heir to his legacy Hiro was able to combine the two to make improvements of all three taking aspects and forging them into this legendary kenjutsu fighting style which incorporates every aspect of Denkou Style Kenjutsu & Isley Family Kenjutsu in one. In this stance the user wields two blades either of identical or differing lengths &/or builds completely foregoing the use of hand seals to make a Kenjutsu style which is capable of offense, defense & even support. The Blood Moon Stance was made with Hirenkyaku in mind and as a result when preformed correctly it's kata are often not even seen only felt by those unfortunate enough to combat him. It is known thanks to it's spacing, which is referred to was the "Tsuki Radius" which is essentially the radius from the user to the tip of the blade upon being drawn that a victim is capable of being cut if they are within it. This Kenjutsu style is known for it's highly efficient movement interception ability and thanks to it's spacing + the user's Muscle Tension they are able to intercept movement within their "Tsuki Radii". With an active Raidengan (or any of it's advanced variants) however this can be taken one step further allowing the user to predict movement within his "Tsuki Radii" on par with a Precognitive Dojutsu. Finally when used alongside Kenjutsu Mastery this style can chain Kenjutsu from the Twin Moon, Full Moon, New Moon Blade & Crescent Moon Edge fighting styles without pause battering defenses and forcing opponents to constantly keep their defenses up.
The Blood Moon Stance's draw speed is determined by the types of blades being held in each hand resulting in the following:
Draw Type = Effect
*True Twin Hookswords = [Blood Moon Stance Kenjutsu deal Full Damage regardless of length of Blades]
*Proper Katana & Wakizashi = (Kenjutsu unable to be seen by those without Equal-rank Reaction+Speed Tier Chain within "Tsuki Radii" on Katana side, without Equal-rank Reaction Tiers + Muscle Tension within "Tsuki Radii" on Wakizashi side)
*Standard Twin Chokuto = (Kenjutsu unable to be seen by those without Equal-rank Reaction Tiers + Muscle Tension within "Tsuki Radii" on either side) [Blood Moon Stance Kenjutsu deal half as much damage]
*Improper Wakizashi & Tanto = (Kenjutsu unable to be seen by those without Equal-rank Reaction Tiers + Muscle Tension within "Tsuki Radii" on Wakizashi side, without Equal-rank Reaction Tiers+ Time-slowing Dojutsu within "Tsuki Radii" on Tanto side[Blood Moon Stance Kenjutsu deal quarter as much damage]


Name: Hirenkyaku (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: A-rank (Optional NE Price Varies)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Req. Hoho & Mahō Shinken Gai Kata. This movement style was created thanks to Hiro's Natural Energy reserves gaining the Lightning Affinity thus supercharging not only the way he preformed lightning techniques but imbuing his very body with it. This allowed him to finally perfectly integrate Lack of Intent into his movement style while retaining the fluid graceful unpredictable nature of Hoho. The result is Hirenkyaku where Hiro doesn't so much as run as he does glide across surfaces yet to main the degree of speed with the subtlety is extremely fatiguing on the body as without endurance tiers the user will consume triple the stamina by attempting to use it at all (it's reduced to double even with Endurance Tiers). However it is superior to it's predecessors by virtue of allowing the user when it is in use to equate Samurai Level Speed yet remain unable to be read by those with Muscle Tension/Time-Slowing Dojutsu + Reaction Tiers, however due to the latent electricity coursing through the body the user is still capable of being tracked by electrolocation. However when used with an additional NE Price it can actually out speed Samurai Lvl Speed being on par with Tier Chains. Due to this increase in speed it is even difficult for those with Precognitive Dojutsu to accurately gauge the user's movement as they require Reaction Tiers equal rank to the user's speed (While those with the Raidengan require Muscle Tension) to predict his movements. The movement itself is rather stylish as the gliding to those who can see it simply appears as if he's sliding on a frictionless surface the sheer coolness being capable of seducing those of opposite gender or of the homosexual or bisexual orientation while intimidating those of the same gender who are heterosexual or of the asexual orientation. Finally thanks to the stability of the movement seeing as the center of balance is maintained almost perfectly this technique can be used in place of Samurai Lvl Strength Tiers to negate knockback.

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.

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.

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 S-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 S-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.

Description: Req. New Moon Blade & a source of light. 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 stumbles lifting their Wakizashi in a bid to catch ones balance which causes the blade to reflect a beam of light into an opponents eyes, unless they have B-rank reaction tiers to blink their eyes in time. This leaves the opponent vulnerable to the follow up horizontal slash which is done while the opponent is blinded with the user's Katana to inflict B-rank physical damage to the opponent. This two step attack is geared at taking away an opponents sight thus robbing them of the chance to accurately dodge the strike or make use of any tracking methods involving the use of sight for the entire blindness duration (such as muscle tension).

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.

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: Iai Quickdraw
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: A modification of the Iai line of techniques which involves Xan specifically drawing his blade early rather than do it smoothly resulting in a loss of power in exchange for a boost in speed. Depending on his skill level the amount of techniques he is capable of doing this for varies however the thing that remains constant is that the technique loses 1-rank in damage dealt but gains 1-rank in the speed it is preformed at. This was done in response to opponents who had little to no resilience but were easily capable of dodging normal kenjutsu strikes. That was of course, unacceptable to Xan, and thus he refined the most basic principle of Iaido, the art of drawing a black quickly, in order to counteract it.

Name: Iai Slicing
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Short-Range

Description: Adhering to the principles of Iaidō, the user performs a quick and powerful slash with their sword in order to cut the intended target, before immediately resheathing the blade afterwards. This technique is a powerful C-rank technique simply due to the speed in which it is preformed as it can slice a person moving at C-rank speed as if it was nothing. In addition when the user has speed tiers the damage is increased by 1-rank above the user's speed tiers, if they have reaction tiers above C-rank the speed of the opponent they can slice is increased to be equivalent with their reaction tiers.

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
8 Feet (3.5 Feet Arm Length) - 4/4.5 Feet - 20 Feet

Name: Geka Style - Battojutsu
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self (Within Batto Distance)

Description: The originator of the Geka Seido Kenjutsu style was a Samurai Cypher Hybrid who looked at the multiple styles of kenjutsu in his arsenal and noticed the inherent flaw in Iaido. Iaido isn't an offensive kenjutsu style, it is a counter-offensive style which has been honed into a lethal art. As a result the originator decided to delve through the history books to see where exactly Iaido originated from and stumbled upon Batto, the art of drawing a blade to initiate and attack not in reply to one. Combining that with improved speed and the Nagamaki resulted in the formation of one of the key components of Geka Seido. To Draw the Blade, as a result their are three types of drawing each with it's own effect.
Draw Type - Effect
Muscle Tension Draw - Proper (Kenjutsu Out Speeds 2-rank Higher Speed Tier within "Batto Distance", if not backed by equal rank strength or possessing reaction tiers equal to speed of Geka Style Kenjutsu)
Two Handed Draw - Standard (Kenjutsu Out Speeds 1-rank Higher Speed Tier within "Batto Distance", if not backed by equal rank strength or possessing reaction tiers equal to speed of Geka Style Kenjutsu)
One Handed Draw - Improper (Kenjutsu Out Speeds Equal Speed Tier within "Batto Distance", if not backed by equal rank strength or possessing reaction tiers equal to speed of Geka Style Kenjutsu) [Geka Style deal half as much Damage]

Name: Dual Wielding
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: C-rank
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 Xan began to refine his use of Kenjutsu to incorporate these changes. Now while utilizing his kenjutsu techniques he is able to make use of his kenjutsu striking twice rather than once. Iaido is utilized in conjunction with Samurai Style Kenjutsu, Basilisk being used for the former, while Cockatrice is used for the latter. This ensures that he is able to dish out death twice as effectively as before and those two 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: 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: Iai Prediction
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Self (Iaido)

Description: Req. User to have learned 3rd Reaction & possess at least B-rank Speed before training this technique. Adhering to the principles of Iaidō, the user is able to see the path of an opponents weapon simply based on the faint twitches of their muscles. This allows them to predict the opponents movements when they are using close range weapons such as swords, knives, staffs etc. This technique is a set up for more powerful techniques using Iaido however it is also very useful in dodging. Users of this technique can predict the kenjutsu used by opponents from B-rank & below (Low, High & Elite) as long as they are within their Iaido range.

Name: Tenmestu Style Secret Tech: Dragon Howl Strike
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Mid

Description: When the sword’s hilt connects with the sheath, the god-speed sheathing produces a sonic boom that temporarily stuns an opponent’s auditory nerve, impairing their hearing and equilibrium. The sheathing occurs at high speeds of Vacuum release with opponents within ten feet of the user suffering from the effects resulting in their Reaction tiers being lowered by 1-rank for 15 posts.

[*]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.

Description: An advancement of the Silent Killing technique which involves being able to muffle the sound of one's thrown senbon requiring a sound sensory technique above B-rank, a Sound Release technique capable of detecting sound C-rank or above, or an acute sense of hearing. Due to the user's own skill in concealing the sound of their senbon they are likewise more perceptive to hearing when an opponent is throwing their own thus this technique likewise doubles as a sound sensory technique specific to detecting when another individual is throwing projectiles as long as they aren't smaller than senbon within the user's range of hearing.

Name: Stumbling Edge - En-Circle
Classification: Taijutsu
Original Rank: D
Count: 0/5
Current Rank: D
Class: Defensive
Range: Contact (Req. Wakizashi or Katana), Short

Description: Following the Stumbling Edge philosophy of kenjutsu has given rise to this encircling technique in which the user makes contact with incoming blade of another opponent parrying it off to the side while crossing their legs so that the parry results in them stumbling. The user then trips yet manages to teeter in an arc up to 5ft in length before ending up behind the opponent positioning the user in the victim's blindspot. Once there the user can capitalize on the positioning as victims require either Reaction Tiers+Samurai Level Speed equivalent to, or a Time-Slowing Dojutsu/Muscle Tension with 1-rank higher speed than, the next kenjutsu technique the user utilizes to quickly turn around before defending against it. With subsequent retraining the distance this technique can be used effectively is improved allowing it to be preformed on larger targets rather than just humanoid ones.

Name: Hoho: Bound
Classification: Taijutsu

Current Rank: B
Class: Supplementary
Range: Contact (Skip), Short (Hop), Mid (Jump), Long (Leap)

Description: Hoho is not simply referring to the speed at which one can run but likewise refers to the speed at which they can jump and thus retain said momentum while in the air. Depending on the speed they are currently moving the user can skip (1 Leg no Blood Price), hop (1 Leg Blood Price), jump (2 Legs no Blood Price) or leap (2 Legs Blood Price) which allows them to essentially glide through the air while retaining their forward momentum without plummeting in the air. Unlike those incapable of Hoho, this technique allows it's user to move through the air without sinking doubling as a temporary air movement technique which is useful if attempting to move over dangerous terrain or gaps in the ground. Bound shows it's true potential when used as a set up for other techniques such as kenjutsu as it allows the user to preform aerial techniques even though they themselves are incapable of flight as they propel themselves horizontally, diagonally (distance covered halved), or even vertically (distanced covered quartered) towards their opponent.

Hirenkyaku caps at S-rank NE Price to reach SS-rank- Speeds which is slower than SS which is slower than Ripping Discord.
Senbon Shattered due to SS-rank Physical Dmg being dealt back to them.
Displacement Aura (+Enhanced) = 6ft.
Displacement Blow = incoming at Blinding Light Speeds aimed at Hiro's mid section. (B-rank + Internal Dmg if hit by actual Elbow, C-rank Dmg + Knockback if hit by Displacement Aura)

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 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: Shubi Style: Velocity Impact Constitution
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: SS 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 Ripping Discord speeds, and are dealing SS-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 SS-rank upon impact. This technique however only protects against physical damage inflicting objects, or techniques.

Name: Hirenkyaku (Signature)
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: A-rank (Optional NE Price Varies)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Req. Hoho & Mahō Shinken Gai Kata. This movement style was created thanks to Hiro's Natural Energy reserves gaining the Lightning Affinity thus supercharging not only the way he preformed lightning techniques but imbuing his very body with it. This allowed him to finally perfectly integrate Lack of Intent into his movement style while retaining the fluid graceful unpredictable nature of Hoho. The result is Hirenkyaku where Hiro doesn't so much as run as he does glide across surfaces yet to main the degree of speed with the subtlety is extremely fatiguing on the body as without endurance tiers the user will consume triple the stamina by attempting to use it at all (it's reduced to double even with Endurance Tiers). However it is superior to it's predecessors by virtue of allowing the user when it is in use to equate Samurai Level Speed yet remain unable to be read by those with Muscle Tension/Time-Slowing Dojutsu + Reaction Tiers, however due to the latent electricity coursing through the body the user is still capable of being tracked by electrolocation. However when used with an additional NE Price it can actually out speed Samurai Lvl Speed being on par with Tier Chains. Due to this increase in speed it is even difficult for those with Precognitive Dojutsu to accurately gauge the user's movement as they require Reaction Tiers equal rank to the user's speed (While those with the Raidengan require Muscle Tension) to predict his movements. The movement itself is rather stylish as the gliding to those who can see it simply appears as if he's sliding on a frictionless surface the sheer coolness being capable of seducing those of opposite gender or of the homosexual or bisexual orientation while intimidating those of the same gender who are heterosexual or of the asexual orientation. Finally thanks to the stability of the movement seeing as the center of balance is maintained almost perfectly this technique can be used in place of Samurai Lvl Strength Tiers to negate knockback.

Name: Muscle Tension
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: A
Class: Supplementary
Range: Varies

Description: Those who have dedicated their life to the True All Taijutsu arts, are expertly trained in reading others bodies. By doing this the user is capable of reading the slightest movements in one’s muscles allowing them to effectively predict one’s movements regarding taijutsu, kenjutsu, and Shurikenjutsu. This is made possible by the involuntary twitches in human bodies before preforming an action. Because the other two races are different once of one race one can not read another races physical movements accurately unless by retraining this technique and boosting it to S-rank after which to learn the movements of the last race it requires a final retraining. Once they are able to read physical movements they become able to "predict" the attacks of opponents that have lower speed tiers than them with the larger the gap between them the easier it is to predict the movements. On the other hand when referring to opponents with higher speed tiers they become able to adapt to fighting opponents with 1-rank higher speed tiers at least in fast combat physical attacks from the get go. With 1 retraining this jumps to 2-ranks above, while with the final retraining this jumps to 3-ranks above capping at Echoing Flash speeds.


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.

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.

Name: Twin Moon Dance: Full Routine
Classification: Taijutsu

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 S-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 S-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: 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: 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: Denkou Style Kenjutsu: Moonlit Blade
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: SS (Optional SS-rank NE Price)
Class: Offensive
Range: Contact (Dmg/Blood spurt), Short (Range)

Description: Req. Batto, Hirenkyaku & Active Raidengan. Stemming from the mastery of the Denkou Style of Kenjutsu the user deals a powerful strike, quickly drawing his sword and cutting through his opponent to deal SS-rank Physical Slicing Dmg. His opponent only feels the attack as Hiro sheathes his sword (or if they have SS-rank Pain Sensory), resulting in the blood from the wound spurting outward and dousing those within 6ft of the victim in their blood. This technique is preformed using Hirenkyaku in order to move forward over a distance of 30ft while unsheathing one's blade using the philosophy of Batto and cleaving through an opponent while passing by them as long as they are within 6ft of the user. This technique is so quick that depending on if it uses Hirenkyaku with or without the NE price, it is unreadable by those who only possess one of the following (Time-Slowing Dojutsu, Muscle Tension, SS-rank Reaction Tiers) while those who can see this slash due to possessing at least two of those (such as the Joukai or Kami Raidengan) have their seduction limit depleted by -6 each P.T they observe the user moving. If the NE Price is used this technique can outspeed equal rank Samurai Lvl Speed during the rush while it's reliant on Batto to determine the speed of kenjutsu it can intercept when inflicting it's strike. Due to it's speed, this technique does not need to be placed in spoiler tags when it is used if the victim lacks the ability to detect the slash, all that needs to be mentioned is the user passing a victim and they can sheathe their blade at their leisure in order to trigger it and let the victim feel that they have in fact been slashed.

Name: Erasure of Iaido: Nervous Path

Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Pain is a tool, an Xan has learned how to cast it away and dish it out as he feels fit, a true assassin doesn't even allow his victims to feel the pain from his strikes and through the use of misdirection and intense speed Xan is able to do just that. When using the Iaido in the Nervous path Xan strikes twice the first being the initial cut and the second triggering a pressure effect which "seals" the wound dealt. The victim is cut so fast that they do not notice or rather their brain is unable to process the fact that they have been cut and due to the fact there is no visible wound they think all is well. Rather their wound is still there and the "sealing" is only a temporary fix eventually the pressure holding the wound together will dissipate and the wound will burst open.

Description: To slice with one hand is fancy and wasteful, though Xan would admit 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 double the amount without sacrificing any control what so ever. As a result he learned to utilize Basilisk or Cockatrice with two hands instead of one the result was two different effects, both being based on the differences between his two weapons. With Basilisk his Iaido was sped up, increasing in speed by 1-rank, while with Cockatrice his samurai style kenjutsu was increased in damage by 1-rank. Of course he would attempt to use them in reverse, the end result being the penalties incurred by his Swapping Swords technique are dropped completely leaving only the benefits.

Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: While engaging in Kenjutsu as a result of a lagged attack this technique allows Xander to trigger them at the exact same time resulting in the victim not noticing when they are struck by these techniques as long as they are within the user's Displacement Aura. This is more frightening than it's predecessor for the sole reason being that it can be applied in conjunction with another strike with pain sensory techniques not detecting this strike if the other strike dealt even a low amount of pain to the victim, whereas in the case of not dealing any pain at all it requires a pain sensory technique of at least A-rank to notice. Due to being more controlled by Xan this technique can be stacked on specific body parts of a victim and upon being triggered can result in unique cuts being inflicted on a victim which aren't usually possible by a sword. The damage dealt is always equal in damage to the initial slash and this technique needs only be placed in spoiler tags when triggered unless a victim has a pain sensory technique of A-rank or above.
