Name: Lightning Ordained
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Passive
Range: Self

Description: Since birth, Diana had noticed that she was a bit more aligned to Lightning than other Denkous. This, of course, was no coincidence as this “mutation” had derived from the fact that her father and those before him were Lightning Elementals as her great-grandfather had the mythical beast and the embodiment of lightning sealed within him. With that said, Diana was born with Perfect Affinity ability. This grants her a Very High Affinity towards Lightning. Unlike those who were before, this mutation causes her to gain one less element that she would normally be able to attain through training.

Name: Lightning Release: Depth Charge
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: A
Class: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Contact, Short (Discharge)

Description: After making hand seals and enveloping themselves with lightning chakra, the user can inflict damage to the opponent by either touching or emanating a powerful bolt of electricity from any part of their body. This technique is useful for combating physical based opponents as due to the contact they will electrocute themselves sustaining A-rank Lightning Release shocking damage. When it is discharged from the user's body it can travel up to 20 ft away at Vacuum Release speeds however it is stronger through direct contact. This is because the electric shock will induce muscle spasms in the victim requiring them to possess A-rank Strength in order to not succumb to them. If they do then dependent on their endurance tiers they will suffer from -4 stamina loss each P.T due to their muscle spasms.
Endurance Tier - Muscle Spasm Duration
None - 7 P.T
D - 5 P.T
C - 3 P.T
B - 2 P.T
A - 1 P.T

Name: Water Release: Great Poisonous Exploding Water Colliding Wave
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: A-rank (Chakra & Water Price Varies)
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: AOE, Long (Radius of Orb)

Description: This technique is a larger version of the Water Release: Exploding Water Colliding Wave and is formed once the user makes handseal before clapping their hands together. With it, the user spews out a massive amount of water which spew forth at Vacuum release speeds, covering an entire area with crushing, unavoidable waves causing victims who are unable to lock themselves in place with A-rank strength tiers to be carried along with the incoming water but if they are submerged underneath it they sustain A-rank Water Release chakra based damage. The user can ride the wave, allowing them to move at high speeds of Vacuum Release, and attack the enemy, now swept off their feet, without fear of counter-attacks depending on the amount of water used. The amount of water created is proportional to the amount of chakra used; when used with large amounts of chakra it is possible for the user to create copious amounts of water to flood the area, regardless however it still moves at the same speed regardless of the amount of chakra put into it. Upon finishing with a Ram Seal the water is then converged into an orb encompassing the water formerly used to flood the area into an orb dome (if done on land) of sorts with a radius of 80 ft (160 ft diameter). Victims that are swept away and submerged within the water will also constantly receive continuous internal A rank hybrid damage if the water enters their body unless they have means of removing the poison.


Chakra Used - Area of Effect (ft radius) - Amount of Water Produced
B & B - 120 - 2 B-ranks (1 A-rank)
A & A - 160 - 4 B-ranks (2 A-ranks or 1 S-rank)
S & S - 200 - 8 B-ranks (4 A-ranks, 2 S-ranks or 1 SS-rank)

Name: Earth Release: Ground Splitting Technique
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: A
Class: Supplementary
Range: Long (Distance), Mid (Knock-Back), Short (Radius)

Description: After forming the necessary hand seals ending with Tiger, the user slams their hands into the ground which causes the earth to erupt below their target's feet at Vacuum Release speeds. This can be used up to a distance of 80 ft away from the user with the rocks launches up to 40 ft high into the sky over a radius of 20 ft. As a result this technique can also effectively create barricades that would take quite some time for a regular person to surmount due to the threat of the plummeting rocks. Those victims who are within the eruption radius sustain A-rank Earth Release damage due to the violent explosion of rock however it can also be used to smack down aerial opponents moving at Vacuum Release or below speeds if they lack A-rank Reaction Tiers causing them to sustain fall damage in addition to being crushed by the falling rocks upon landing on the ground.

Name: Life Release: Needle Hell
Classification: Ninjutsu/Shurikenjutsu
Rank: B
Class: Offensive
Range: Self (Hair), Short (Growth), Long (Distance)

Description: Req. Needle Jizō & Hair Needle Senbon. After using Needle Jizō to extend their hair around their body, the user shoots a barrage (5) of hardened hair needles towards their opponent at Crashing Ground speeds. The hairs themselves are strong enough to pierce through and destroy boulders each dealing B-rank chakra based piercing damage upon striking an opponent. The amount released is based on the users skill level as even though they seem to be releasing multiple strands collectively they hit at the same time and prove to be quite quite devastating. However despite their offensive strength they are rather frail as any B-rank elemental offensive technique can destroy them, but they make up for it by being difficult to see requiring B-rank Reaction Tiers to accurately track them on route to their target.

Name: Life Release: Chakra Armor
Classification: Nintaijutsu
Rank: S-rank (Activation Price)
Class: Supplementary/Defensive
Range: Self

Description: The user wraps their body in a layer of Life chakra using chakra flow that, instead of being used offensively, is used to fortify their cellular structure granting them increased fortitude (S-rank Endurance) when used with natural tiers to make them on par with samurai (S+). This mode, combined with taijutsu, allows the users to utilise nintaijutsu Life Release Hybrid based damage. When using the Armour at full power, it causes their bone structure to be more prominent, 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 Life Release the user is encased in it requiring a S-rank Defense Piercing hybrid (& equivalents technique good against Life Release to even damage them.

Name: Drop-Kick
Classifaction: Nintaijutsu
Rank: D-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Short

Description: A powerful drop-kick which sends an impacted opponent flying dependent on the user's strength tiers, when used in conjunction with Life Release: Chakra Enhancement, Chakra Mode or Armor it's true power is shown. In the case of the former the opponent is dealt additional Life Release hybrid based damage upon impact while in the case of the latter the victim sustains additional Life Release damage, both dependent on the user's strength tiers. Victims hit by this technique can sustain additional damage as they fly through the air if they impact something during their flight, and in order to not be knocked flying victims must possess Strength tiers 1-rank above the user's to anchor themselves in place due to it being a combination of both speed and power.

Name: Dipugakure Style: Blood-Rending Blade
Classification: Kinjutsu/Kenjutsu
Rank: S-rank (A-rank Blood Price, 5 Stamina Price, Variable Materia Price)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self (Blade), Short-Mid (Shapeshifting)

Description: This technique takes the concept of creating a flexible yet malleable sword and applies Kinjutsu principles to it resulting in the formation of a blade comprised of the user's life-force. Those within the Dipugakure ANBU Corps use this technique in order to create their own Blade, which is a combination of gathered materia, their blood and their physical energy (stamina) these are placed on top of a specially prepared pedestal which is prepare typically by the sacrifice of an individual in honor of Susano'o. This ceremony was brought to Dipugakure by a roaming bandit clan which were persuaded to join Dipugakure by the 1st Abisukage, and results in a liquid blade which is bound to the user's soul. The basic shape is specified by the user and while it lacks any special abilities beyond the materials used in it's formation, it is capable of shifting forms to be more versatile in combat. Despite it's formation this weapon deals physical damage if utilized with kenjutsu and only deals spiritual based damage if used with kinjutsu, however it is resilient against S-rank & below spiritual based techniques regardless of the technique it is used with. It may or may not contain other resistances which are based on the materials used in it's composition however depending on the rank of the user the amount of materials (up to S-rank of each) that can be used to form a Blood-Rending Blade vary. Once formed this technique is incapable of being used to form a new blade and the user is capable of storing this blade like any normal blade so long as it remains in their "Bank". To that end this means the user is capable of storing it like normal weapons, but others will require at least an Iron Armor Seal in order to seal it away due to it possessing part of the user's Soul. If this weapon is destroyed, so long as it isn't by a S-rank or above Soul destroying, Corruption or Erasure technique it will eventually reform after a set amount of topics based on the user's age. Multiple shapes can be formed each one having it's own word-count and each taking a D-rank technique slot upon being learned while when the mid-range version of this technique is used all Short-range Kenjutsu techniques have their range increased by +25 ft.

Name: Kendo
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: D
Class: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: One of the ancient styles of Kenjutsu which was rendered extinct during the Era of Warring States due to the shinobi of that time fearing the samurai who practiced this style. Unrefined Kendo is applicable to any sort of Kenjutsu as it is simply the art of swinging a blade with all of ones force from an elevated position and attack in one powerful motion typically with both hands on the hilt in order to cut through all which dare approach them. The speed of the swing is done with strength and yet 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 using two hands rather than one it is incapable of being blocked unless by a parrying technique above the rank of the kenjutsu technique used alongside Kendo or if the opponent has Sam. Level strength tiers equal to the strength of the user's swing. To all others they either have their weapon cut through while being sliced apart without any pause or if their weapon is of high enough quality it can merely break while preventing them from sustaining the damage due to dispersing the force from the strike.
Strength Tier - Outspeeding Proximity (Speed Outsped) - Weapon Rank Shattered (Phy Resist Req. to disperse force)
D - 6 inches (Equal Rank-) - D (C)
C - 1 ft (Equal Rank) - C (B)
B - 2 ft (Equal Rank+) - B (A)

S - 4 ft (1-rank Above-) - S (Above S)

Name: Dipugakure Style: Silent Killing
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary/Offensive
Range: Self

Description: This technique is typically taught to Dipugakure ANBU and has been passed down from generation to generation having been refined by the Naito clan upon first joining Dipugakure however with their reformation into the Rikigaku Clan the only trace of their pure legacy remains within the Dipugakure Hunter Corps. As the name suggests, this technique is simply a very quiet method of killing an opponent, usually from behind with a blade. Additionally, because the user moves silently, it cannot be defended against, because the attack cannot be anticipated resulting in Time-Slowing Dojutsu as well as Muscle Tension being incapable of being used as vision aids for reaction time. The user will often slit their opponent's throat, preventing any cry that might give them away while moving so silently that those without either A-rank or above Sound Sensory, a B-rank Sound Release auditory sensory technique or B-rank Reaction Tiers + Heightened Hearing are unable to hear them moving. Depending on the individuals reaction tiers they will react to the user's Kenjutsu after a set time period.
Reaction Tier = P.T Delay before Reacting
Tier- = 5 P.T
Tier = 4 P.T
Tier+ = 3 P.T
Tier++ = 2 P.T

Name: Third Reaction
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank:B-rank
Class:Supplementary
Range:N/A

Description: Cypher naturally have better reaction speed and have inbuilt senses which allow them to detect small changes and point out things that seem out of the ordinary. This sense of battle grants them the ability to react to B-rank speeds even if they don't possess sped tiers and detect opponents who are being hidden by B-rank hiding techniques. In addition when they do possess speed tiers it gives them the ability to react to speeds up to 1 rank above their own as long as it doesn't exceed their rank.

Name: Lightning Release: Thunderpunch
Classification: Nintaijutsu
Rank: C-rank (Chakra Price Varies)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Contact

Description: A simple nintaijutsu technique in which the user imbues their fist with lightning release chakra moments before an impact with a target which results in the forced discharge of said electricity into the victims body. This technique deals C-rank physical damage + Lightning Release chakra damage equal to the amount of chakra put into the user's fist prior to impact. The technique initially can causes the user's fist to glow a bit (C or B) however when a large amount of electricity (A or S) is put into it the fist sparks with electricity signifying it's lethality, however, the chakra damage if above C rank will be considered Hybrid damage  The amount of electricity capable of being imbued into the user's fist caps at S-rank.

Range: Self

Description: Since birth, Diana had noticed that she was a bit more aligned to Lightning than other Denkous. This, of course, was no coincidence as this “mutation” had derived from the fact that her father and those before him were Lightning Elementals as her great-grandfather had the mythical beast and the embodiment of lightning sealed within him. With that said, Diana was born with Perfect Affinity ability. This grants her a Very High Affinity towards Lightning. Unlike those who were before, this mutation causes her to gain one less element that she would normally be able to attain through training.

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: B
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.

Name: Water Release: Hiding in Poisonous Rain Technique
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: AOE

Description: Req. Hidden Mist Technique & Hidden Drizzle Technique to be learned. The user generates rain to hide themselves and/or their comrades in taking aspects from its predecessors (Hidden Mist & Hidden Rain) while acting as a method of generating water materia for the user to use to supply their water release techniques. The rain's intensity is controlled by the amount of chakra kneaded into it while it is spread over a 40ft radius around the user remaining fixed in place until canceled or dispersed. It can't fool the Zenreigan due to it's X-ray capabilities, but, due to the mist being created with the user's chakra, while any chakra vision or moisture sensory capable dojutsu (Itsugan, Bakufukogan etc) will see the rain coloured by their opponent's chakra, which will effectively hide the user from the dōjutsu. Furthermore due to the numerous droplets falling from above it negates the advantage time-slowing dojutsu possess if they do not have B-rank or higher reaction tiers (Kyougan, below 2nd Stg Raidengan) The Dipugakure specific add on to this technique involves said shinobi holding the Ox-hand seal post making the hand seals to initiate the technique, expending an additional chakra price each turn, in order to increase the moisture of the area due to raining down more water making said rain more intense and thus more difficult to see through rather than the basic version which seems so spread around. While capable of being cleared by a B-rank Area Clearing technique, which are often of the wind release variety, when saturated it requires Area Clearing techniques equal to the intensity of the rain. As the rain creates humidity in the area, the salamander's poison would begin to kick in causing victims who come inhale it to constantly receive B-rank hybrid damage and also become disoriented requiring them to need B-rank reaction to negate the dizzying effect.

Rain Intensity (Chakra Price Per Turn) - Chakra Vision Blinded (Rea. Req. to See through) - Water Materia Each P.T
D (D) - D (B = Quartered Seeing Distance in Rain) - D
C (3 D) - C (A = Quartered Seeing Distance in Rain) - 2 D
B (C) - B (S = Halved Seeing Distance in Rain) - 4 D

Name: Genetic Structure: Bone Cannon
Classification: Taijustu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Mid-range

Description: The Dakar gathers chakra from its body and compresses it inside of a hollow sphere of bone, creating a small concentrated spiked ball of bone the size of a small creature which is launched towards the opponent at Crashing ground speeds to deal B-rank physical life release damage to them. In addition the user can force the sphere to explode causing small needles of bone to emerge dealing C-rank damage to anything within 5 feet of the explosion.

Name: Hair Style: Needle Senbon
Classification: Ninjutsu/Shurikenjutsu
Rank: C (D-rank Chakra per Hair Strand Fired)
Class: Offensive
Range: Self (Hair), Short (Growth), Mid (Distance)

Description: This technique essentially hardens the hair on the user's head and shoots it at the enemy. The sharpened points of the hair can turn the target's entire body into a pincushion launching multiple (depends on rank) strands of hair at an opponent up to 20 ft away. The user can fire either individual strands of hair, or multiple strands can be wrapped together to create larger projectiles. This technique is fairly versatile as while the hair strands fly at bullet release speeds they are difficult to see while moving through the air requiring C-rank Reaction Tiers in order to spot them. When fired as single strands each deal D-rank damage and after the initial burst the user requires D-rank chakra to fire more strands. Depending on their skill level they can wrap strands together to increase their damage similar to a combination jutsu as long as the individual price for each strand is paid.
Rank - Hair Strand Initial Launch/Bundle (Chakra Price/Damage Dealt)
D - 1 Strand (D)
C - 5 Strands (C/5 D-ranks)
B - 10 Strands (B/10 D-ranks)

Name: Hair Style: Needle Camouflage
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: A-rank (A-rank Activation Price)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Using this technique, the user's hair will lengthen and completely cover his whole body while vanishing from sight in dim light or at nighttime requiring A-rank Reaction to see him when standing still. Because their hair is black, concealing themselves in it when sneaking into dark areas makes this technique highly resourceful as it will be hard for enemies to see him requiring Night Vision or an A-rank Sensory technique to see them if they are moving while they will need that in addition to the normal reaction tiers to see them if they are standing still. Furthermore as a camouflage technique the hair blocks their chakra signature resulting in those using that to detect them being unable to do so. After using this technique, the user's hair will shrink back to its normal length in a similar fashion to the Needle Jizō technique. This technique is fairly draining consuming an A-rank of chakra each P.T to maintain however with increased skill and endurance tiers this technique can be kept up for a longer period of time before needing to be reactivated.
Rank - P.T Technique is kept Active - Endurance Tiers
D - N/A (Chakra Price each P.T) - D (+1)
C - 1 - C (+2)
B - 2 - B (+3)
A - 3 - A (+4)
S - 4 - S (+5)

Name: Dipu Style Silent Killing: Throw Voice
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self (Voice), Mid

Description: Req. Hidden Mist technique to be active on field. A basic silent killing technique common among Dipugakure ANBU which entails the throwing of the user's voice in order to confuse those without sound sensory above C-rank due to their voice coming from different locations. They have learned how to use the water particles comprising their saturated mist to aid them with this technique as if it is unsaturated then this technique is unable to be utilized properly. Depending on how saturated the individual's Hidden Mist technique is the user's voice can be "thrown" across different distances relative to their position. That coupled with the proper use of the silent killing method renders sound sensory even more of a moot point when trying to locate a proper user of the silent killing method.
Mist Saturation - Distance in ft Voice emanates from
D - Up to 10 ft
C - Up to 20 ft
B - Up to 30 ft
A - Up to 40 ft

Name: Strong Fist
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: D-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Self

Description: Strong Fist which is also known as "Goken" is powerful taijutsu fighting style, the purpose of which is to cause external damage and break bones. This style of fighting involves smashing your opponent and is generally used only by extremely physically powerful and dominating shinobi, however it has become the defacto fighting style for ASN Shinobi over time. As a result often victims are swept up in the user's kata being unable to counter-act simply due to the force of impact rag dolling them through the air unless they possess strength tiers at least Equal-rank- (I.e D-rank technique requires D- Strength) if no strength tier check is specified within the technique. It was made so that even those without strength tiers can use it effectively to dish out damage.
Rank of Strong Fist Technique - Str Tier Req. to Negate Knock-Back (Knockback Dealt)
D - D- (1ft)
C - C- (2ft)
B - B- (3ft)

Name: Strong Fist: Leaf Great Flash
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: C-rank
Class: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short

Description: The user unleashes a powerful lateral kick which is aimed at disarming armed opponents knocking the weapon flying out of their reach. The impact is only made worse when the victim attempts to strong arm the attempt at disarming as victims who do not possess defense tiers along with strength tiers equal or above the user's strike will have the body part which is holding the weapon broken. Ranging from a broken wrist, arm, shoulder all depends on exactly what part of their body is struck while trying to hold on to their weapon.

Marlin uses Vacuum Release & DS: SK to get close to Diana = Depending on her Reaction Tiers she has a slight delay to react to his Kenjutsu
Dragon Howl Strike = -1 Rank to Diana's Reaction Tiers.
Nine Dragon Crash = Req. A-rank Reaction to notice & dodge his follow-up. (Thanks to Vacuum Release, if she lacks A-rank Reaction she will be unable to see Marlin move, which thanks to Hidden Rain means that she would be unable to utilize her Dojutsu's other form of seeing to keep track of Marlin)

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.

Name: Tenmestu Style: Nine Dragon Crash
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: A-rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Short to Mid

Description: The user uses the Tenmestu’s high speed to its full extent, dealing nine blows to the most fundamental targets of swordsmanship, all at the same time. These target’s of the focus of one’s tech as they make up the basis of one’s guarding stance, regardless of what weapon or style, making guarding and dodging impossible unless the target is able to notice the strikes. This technique occurs so quickly that victims without A-rank reaction tiers are unable to notice whereas those with reaction tiers require equal rank speed to the user in order to successfully dodge.

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

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 to those without A-rank Reaction Tiers as the only thing seen being a cloud of steam formed from them moving in the air formed by the vacuum left by the user. Those with both A-rank Reaction Tiers & either Muscle Tension/Time-Slowing Dojutsu or possess A-rank+ Reaction Tiers are accurately able to track the user.

Alright so the rain has a disorienting effect which by definition means to cause someone to lose their sense of direction so I'm hoping that would be enough to make their attacks miss since they would have trouble targetting both Diana and Vivaan. Also, they all take B rank hybrid damage for as long they remain in the rain.

Range: Contact, Short (Discharge)

Description: After making hand seals and enveloping themselves with lightning chakra, the user can inflict damage to the opponent by either touching or emanating a powerful bolt of electricity from any part of their body. This technique is useful for combating physical based opponents as due to the contact they will electrocute themselves sustaining A-rank Lightning Release shocking damage. When it is discharged from the user's body it can travel up to 20 ft away at Vacuum Release speeds however it is stronger through direct contact. This is because the electric shock will induce muscle spasms in the victim requiring them to possess A-rank Strength in order to not succumb to them. If they do then dependent on their endurance tiers they will suffer from -4 stamina loss each P.T due to their muscle spasms.

Appearance: A unique headgear which is painted and fashioned to resemble the animal that said ANBU member has as their call sign. Typically they resemble animals however on occasion when designating a higher rank they resemble mythical animals.
Special Ability: N/A
*It can sustain damage from up to 1 S-rank, 3 A-ranks, 5 B-ranks & 7 C-ranks worth of Raw Damage to a shinobi's head before being destroyed however those masks resembling mythical animals are even more durable capable of sustaining damage from up to 1 SS-rank, 3 S-ranks, 5 A-ranks & 7 B-ranks worth of Raw Damage before being destroyed. It is likewise resistant to X-ray Vision incoming from the outside, while those with Dojutsu will be unable to initiate eye-contact with those wearing these masks. It acts as a rebreather filtering poisons & other harmful chemicals from the air if they are below A-rank while doubling the time the wearer's breath can be held underwater. Furthermore this mask conceals the user's face preventing those from ascertaining the wearer's identity unless they possess sensory medium's above S-rank (ANBU) or SS-rank (ANBU Buntaicho).

Name: Bone Powder: Compress
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: S-rank (Req. SS-rank Bone Powder)
Class: Supplementary
Range: Mid

Description: The Dakar gathers up a large amount of Bone Powder which swirls around a target within 50 feet of the user before the Dakar makes a crushing motion with their hand in order to compress the bone powder into a sphere at blinding light speed trapping the target within. The user is capable of squeezing their hand in order to crush targets delivering an A-rank of force due to the bone powder functioning as a gas. However this techniques true danger is being inhaled as it can gradually suffocate a target or can set up any of the Bone Powder: Internal Circulation line of advanced Bone Powder techniques. Those with Endurance Tiers can hold their breath longer and those with breath holding techniques can further extend the countdown till they suffocate. The suffocation effect isn't effective against targets who do not need to breathe.

Rank: SS-rank (A-rank Blood + SS-rank Bone Powder)
Class: Supplementary
Range:

Description: Requires bone powder having been inhaled by target. This techniques counts on the victim unknowingly inhaling bone powder to cause it to accumulate in the victims body, the Dakar then makes a spreading motion with their hand causing the bone powder within their body to expand before rupturing through organs in a bid to exit the target's body often killing them due to this but if not it inflicts an SS-rank of internal life release damage. Depending on the size of the target the time period that the bone powder accumulates in their body enough to utilize this technique varies. In addition the Dakar must be within a maximum distance of 60 feet in order for this technique to work when triggered if the distance exceeds that however it is ineffective despite costing the blood price.

Name: Life Release: Coiling Elder Dragon
Classification: Ninjutsu
Rank: SSS (SSS-rank Chakra Price, Optional 2 SSS or 4 SSS Price)
Class: Defensive/Offensive
Range: Self (User), Contact (Dragon Thickness), Mid (Dragon Head), Long (Dragon Body)

Description: Requires Life Release: Bone Dragon Splintering & Life Release: Wolff's Law. The user makes hand seals ending on Monkey before exhaling a stream of bone dust which envelops around the user's body before coalescing into it's true shape at Echoing Flash Speeds. It's true shape is that of a skeletal wingless dragon which is coiled around their body, this technique adjusts it's size based on what it is supposed to be protecting as such when used on a Humanoid Target it's length caps out at 140 ft with it's head being 70 ft long and the thickness of it's body being 7 ft. This technique protects the user from SSS-rank Physical based techniques and below so long as they lack bypassing damage, while chakra and corporeal mental based techniques SSS-rank and below (and their equivalents in other damage types) are blocked so long as they lack defense piercing. This technique has a unique effect that if it is destroyed it turns back into bone dust (SSS-rank Life Materia) which for an additional chakra price it can be brought back so long as it isn't destroyed by anything strong against Life Release, when it is brought back if the user pays the original price then this technique retains it's original defensive capabilities. If the price is doubled however, then this technique becomes resistant against everything that it has blocked or been damaged by in the topic based on the principle of Wolff's Law in which case bones adapt under pressure to become more resilient. Upon gaining that resistant techniques which were used against it previously now deal halved damage to it, bypassing techniques are now treated as defense piercing and defense piercing is now treated as normal damage. If it is destroyed again this can be repeated, with techniques it was previously resistant to, now being unable to damage it due to becoming immune to them, this effect resets at the end of the topic. Furthermore this effect can be applied to an already existing Coiling Elder Dragon which has not yet been destroyed if the user provides an SSS-rank amount Life Materia plus the chakra prices, which is useful for situations where the user possesses techniques which produce materia and can be used to offset the risk of their defensive technique being destroyed completely before it can benefit from the improved resistances or immunities. The main drawback of this technique is that while coiled the user and the dragon are unable to be moved, however the head of the dragon can be moved about, thus if it's user possesses a technique to allow one to see through a construct they can use that to keep an eye on the battlefield. Furthermore while encased within the dragon it is airtight, with opponents who do not need to breath or can hold their breath for long periods of time being more adept at using this technique otherwise depending on the size of the dragon they will eventually run out of air and begin to suffocate. This technique is very resilient against weaponry (projectiles, puppets, etc), as the thickness of it's body serve to repel weaponry based techniques which lack the size to completely pierce through it, even if they possess bypassing properties unless it is by Phase Release or an element strong against Life Release. This is because while passing through the bones react to the foreign presence and proceed to adapt and harden trapping the weaponry within it's body. Depending on the skill of the user, the maximum scale of this technique can be increased in order to be used to protect larger things such as other constructs, summons, infrastructure etc.

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.

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: Quarter Routine
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: B-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 B-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 B-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: 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.

Name:Tenmestu Style: Bushin.
Classification: Taijustu/Genjutsu
Rank:B-Rank
Class:Offensive
Range:N/A

Description: Using crashing ground release speeds or above the user creates after images of him/her self to avoid attacks and confuse the opponents, these Bushin can likewise be used while trapped within a genjutsu to take the mental damage instead of the user's actual body. The number of Bushin able to be made are 2 at Academy-Genin rank, 3 at Chunin-T. Jonin rank, 4 at Jonin-Hunter Nin rank and 5 at Sannin + rank and the user has a finite amount of bushin they can use per topic as a result. Despite that it is useful for rapidly avoiding chakra or mental (genjutsu & fabrication only) based techniques moving at or below the same speed as the user with it merely leaving an afterimage in place when it hits.

Name: Inugami Style Kenjutsu
Classification: Fighting Style
Rank: C-rank
Class: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid

Description: The Inugami Style of Kenjutsu is heavily based on versatility and positioning, requiring an acute sense of battle and a high iq to even try and master it. However when master it's benefits easily known, as it revolves around the use of equivalent momentum to match a strike in order to counter it distributing the force of an opponent's kenjutsu off to another direction. This is done by a combination of advanced perception and speed, which allows the Inugami to position his own weapon just right so as to deflect the force of a kenjutsu attack moving at speeds he can track with his reaction. How he matches it is by intercepting the strike before enough strength can be built up thus moving into a kenjutsu strike before it is fully completed, he is only able to do this however with kenjutsu techniques which are backed by strength equal and below his movement speed. The rank of kenjutsu techniques the user is able to use his or her fighting style on, however those with higher intellect are more proficient in it's use than others.

Class: Offensive
Range: Mid to Long Range

Description: Using the same principle as Tenmestu Style: Stray Bullet the user this time jumps in the air and instead of one releases several needles at their target (6) each moving at bullet release speeds however due to multiple bursts being released at once it requires B-rank reaction tiers to even notice them coming. This can only be used in the air considering it uses the air to increase the number of needles launched.

Name: Isley Style Kenjutsu: Batto

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.

Description: After striking a solid object, or parrying, blocking or clashing against an incoming D-rank physical based technique the user's katana gives off a tuning sound drowning out sensory techniques which utilize sound as a method of perception D-rank or below. The vibration effect is used to great effect with the user delivering a slash which slices straight through D-rank defenses to deal 3 cuts within 1ft of each other each dealing D-rank physical damage. Due to the vibration effect travelling through the user's own arm(s) it is fairly painful to preform dealing D-rank recoil damage back to the user while being painful enough to break out of a D-rank genjutsu. With subsequent retraining's due to the numerous cuts dealt the victim can sustain additional bleed damage depending on how close the cuts are spaced apart.

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

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.

Shattering Defense Deals C-rank Physical Dmg to an incoming attack faster than the user which due to your Batto outspeeding Marlin's Kenjutsu within 3 ft, means that your faster than him even though he's moving at Crashing Ground (B+) speeds.

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

Name: Geka Style - Heel Kick
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: D-Rank
Class: Defensive/Supplementary
Range: Short

Description: The Geka Seido version of the notorious Heel Kick is actually meant for defensive purposes rather than offensive straying away from the base technique. It is preformed during an incoming physical attack with the Geka Style Samurai kneeing upward in order to impact the physical attack and deflect it upward to deal 1 foot of knockback into the air while shattering a weapon (D-rank & below) if it is blocked by one. The result is victims which do not possess flight or levitation or any air movement technique as unable to avoid a follow up attack by the user through speed tiers up to 2 posts (total) this technique is used on them. The victim is capable of blocking the knockback effect with D-rank or higher strength tiers to root themselves in place.

Name: Geka Style: Shattering Defense Level 2
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: C rank
Class: Defensive/Offensive
Range: Self

Description: The Geki Style take on Defense tiers, having stemmed from the Shubi Style method of defense Shattering Defense is a more offensive version of it which sets itself apart from other defense tiers for that sole reason. When not in motion Geki Style functions just like normal defense tiers just nullifying physical damage C-rank and below, however when moving it sacrifices its nullification to deal C-rank defense piercing physical shattering damage to targets. This is based of course on the principle that the best defense is a good offense and it isn't triggered simply by the user moving, rather it can occur in two additional ways. If an incoming target/attack is faster than the user an incoming attack is no longer nullified but rather dealt impact damage while if an incoming target/attack is slower than the user then the nullification is kept in addition to the impact damage. Unfortunately the major drawback is the loss of the nullification in exchange for piercing, this results in a high risk high return where it is possible for an opponent to deal physical damage to the user during motion as well as the instance damage is dealt out.

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

Description: Of all the members of the Isley Family, Xander was by far the most fearsome and well-known. He also left the largest mark on the family's Kenjutsu, as he had a hand in developing the fighting styles of his adoptive sons, their wives and even their children, making him the main reason they are such a force to be reckoned with. This is one such mark, a style that involves the practitioner using their Kenjutsu with no wasted movement, nor any indication of when or where they are going to attack before they actually do. This was cultivated through extensive practice, eliminating any sign their muscles might give away in terms of their movements and also removing all forms of Killing Intent from their form. This acts as a potent counter to most if not all forms of visual perception, as those who rely on "predicting" an opponent's movement are oft not prepared to face spontaneous movement. Lack of Intent causes the user's Kenjutsu to bypass perception enhancers based on the user's speed compared to that of their target, causing their Kenjutsu to become "unreadable" to that individual. Those with naturally enhanced speed are able to utilize this style to a much greater degree than those without it.

Reaction - Equal
Time-Slowing/Muscle Tension - 1-Rank Above

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 Hiro after watching his mentor 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. The first strike is made with the larger sword while the follow up is made by the shorter one geared at capitalizing on a victim's initial response be it block or dodge however when using swords of the same length &/or weight either can be swung first further confusing an opponent. This ensures that he is 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.

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 that 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 its drawbacks as to unleash multiple strikes consecutively is tiring in terms of stamina depletion but the gain is well worth the risk.

Likewise while spinning porjectiles 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.

Description: 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 moves forward and delivers a quick slashing attack with her/his sword, pushing the opponent away from her unless they possess C-rank strength to lock themselves in place over a distance of 20ft. She/he then leaps high into the air above the opponent (15ft high) and removes the ornamental needles in her/his hair (typically senbon) before throwing them downward in a fast-moving barrage (Bullet Release speeds) using their Raidengan to accurately predict where their victims would end up due to the knockback preventing dodging unless the victim has a C-rank or above Air-Movement technique + C-rank reaction or 1-rank higher speed than the slash was dealt at. This technique lands a fairly large number of hits upon the opponent dependent on the user's skill level due to the number of senbon capable of being thrown at once, likewise the slash itself deals C-rank slicing damage.

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.

Crashing Slasher is used at B-rank+ Speeds using Two-Handed Draw (Thus are capable of outspeeding B-rank+ Speeds within the user's Batto Distance) in order to clash against Newt's Eclipse Whirlwind and Lunar Needle Barrage
Erupting Sonic Impact Prana is used alongside this resulting in B-rank Physical Shattering Damage being projected outward 14 ft (Batto Distance) to impact Newt


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
*Premonition Draw - Perfect (Kenjutsu Out Speeds One Rank Above- Speed tier within "Batto Distance", if not backed by equal rank Samurai Level Strength or possessing Samurai Level Reaction tiers equal to speed of Geka Style Kenjutsu. If target is within quarter of the user's Batto Distance yet is not touching the user, the strike out speeds 1-rank Higher Speed tiers following the same format. If the target is outside a quarter of the user's batto distance but still within it the strikes outspeed 2-rank higher speed tiers following the same format. If the target is outside half of the user's Batto Distance but still within it, the strike outspeeds 3-rank higher speed tiers following the same format.)
*Muscle Tension Draw - Proper (Kenjutsu Out Speeds Equal-rank++ Speed Tier within "Batto Distance", if not backed by equal rank Samurai Level Strength or possessing Samurai Level Reaction tiers equal to speed of Geka Style Kenjutsu. If the target is outside quarter of the user Batto Distance yet still within it the strike out speeds 1-rank Higher Speed Tiers following the same format, if the target is outside half of the user's Batto Distance yet still within it yet not close enough to be quarter the strike outspeeds 2-rank Higher Speed Tiers following the same format)
*Two Handed Draw - Standard (Kenjutsu Out Speeds Equal-rank+ Speed Tier within "Batto Distance", if not backed by equal rank strength or possessing reaction tiers equal to speed of Geka Style Kenjutsu. If the target is outside half of the user Batto Distance yet still within it the strike out speeds 1-rank Higher Speed Tiers following the same format.)
*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: Geka Style - Crashing Slasher
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: B-Rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Mid-Long

Description: Req. Sheathed Weapon & Bullet Cleaver/Speed Draw. This technique was made for the sheer purpose of countering those with high speed tiers, the Geki Style Samurai bends their knees before launching themselves forward while simultaneously unsheathing their Nagamaki. The swing itself is 2 spins slicing 720 degrees (Can cut an opponent 2 times or two opponents at once) within their "Batto Distance" with victims moving at Crashing Ground unable to dodge the attack unless they are either backed by equal rank strength, have a time-slowing dojutsu, sensory technique B-rank or above or possess reaction tiers equal to the speed the Geki Style Samurai is swinging their blade. This technique is aimed at the legs an upon impacting a target they are dealt B-rank physical shattering damage to their leg(s) resulting in a mangled appearance preventing a victim from moving via legs unless it is healed by a B-rank medical ninjutsu. This technique is capable of interrupting fleeing opponents outside (Up to Double it's length & Up to 4 opponents at once) their "Batto Distance" moving at Bullet Release speeds that the Samurai is utilizing this technique, to sustain equal rank damage to their legs if they do not possess sufficient defense tiers to nullify the physical damage dealt.

Name: Geka Style: Quick Draw
Classification: Taijutsu
Rank: B-rank
Class: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Self

Description: The Geka Style version of speed tiers extends up to the arms, which is gained through constant practice until the art of drawing and slicing become muscle memory a skilled user not even needing to think before slicing targets. As a result opponents with telepathy/brain wave sensory are unable to read the user's mind to predict incoming slashes moving at B-rank speed. This technique is better used however with no feet movement, as the solid base allows a faster draw with the user's stance anchoring them in place resulting in all the user's Kenjutsu techniques requiring reaction tiers equal to the speed of the slashes to detect.

Name: Geka Style - Erupting Sonic Impact Prana
Classification: Kenjutsu
Rank: C-Rank
Class: Offensive
Range: Batto Range

Description: Somewhat like the opposite of Martial Sheathing, the user imbues a powerful explosion effect due to the sudden movement of their draw. What this does is send a ninety degree arc of compressed air directly in front of them that travels at speeds equal to their draw speed to deal physical shattering damage equal to their draw speed. The damage can be lowered by one rank however to apply one of two effects. The first knocks back the opponent if they do not possess strength tiers equal to the user's draw speed, 5 feet per tier of Draw Speed, starting at D. The other however applies a knock-back dashing effect to the user, allowing them to dash in a direction at a speed equal to their draw speed, however the damage is only done in a ninety degree arc away from the user.
