Traits
Outside of optional house-specific body modifications, the Kamizuru have no distinctly dominant phenotypes. However, due to their companionship with Satsujinhachi colonies, Kamizuru all wear hives on their persons, which serve as a home for the colonies. Shinobi often opt for the house's Hive Armor.

House SymbolShow
The Kamizuru Compound is located in Iwakagure's Northern District, and they have storefronts specifically in the second and first rings of the Central Marketplace District. With the assistance and monitoring of the village, the Kamizuru both help the welfare of the village and economically support themselves by selling their wares such as their prized honey products to both tourists and local customers.
◘ Family Life, Indoctrination, and Expectations
Life for a Kamizuru is fairly normal, for the most part. While the house does use a class-title system, its appearance is about the only similarity it bears to a caste system. The house compound is divided into three ringed sections:
- Soldier/"Drone" Ring - The outermost and lowest ring of the house compound, these barracks are where the majority of the house's shinobi reside. Along with the factories and manufacturing centers for the house's products. They are placed lowest and at the outmost points of the compound for ease of defense and deployment. The tops of the barracks and factories have pre-fabricated defensive positions for use in case of an invasion. The land is appropriated by the house itself, and usually, shinobi who seek their own residence will be assigned a place of living based on their needs. There are internal departments which the house employs for handling changes in those arrangements, such as when a shinobi marries or is killed in combat. Aside from this, just like every other shinobi, the Kamizuru are expected to pay for their own housing, though housing in the compound for soldiers is partially subsidized by the Corporation, the house's business front, as a means of hazard pay and a show of appreciation for their service to the village.
- Commercial/"Worker" Ring - This ring is where the working class members of the Kamizuru and other guard barracks are located, most often for higher ranking shinobi in the house. Shinobi on this level receive their housing free of charge, a show of gratitude on the house's part for their dedication. The workers here, while not receiving subsidies on housing, are payed a small commission by the company, and they are granted free foodstuffs produced by the company to supplement their own food stores and income. This is located on an elevated plateau, connected to the lower levels and main roads out of the compound by fairly wide, winding paths built into the sides of the plateau, though there are also house-maintained and operated cable-cars which can be used, for a small fee. The work force is protected on this second level, as it would be with their efforts that the rebuilding work would begin in the case of an attack, and it would be from their ranks that new shinobi would be trained to replenish the depleted military forces.
- Administrative Sector/"Queen's Core" - This is where the centers of government, along with its political figureheads, prominent shinobi members of the house, and so on. This is where the house's "Queen" lives, in a modest mansion. There are no subsidies for these citizens, as their deep-running connections both in and outside the house assure that they live very comfortably even when paying expenses for properties. This is also the level where the house's monetary profits and emergency food stores are kept here as well. It's reserve food stuffs are impressive, and while they would not be enough to support the entire village on their own, it would provide a valuable supplement in the case of a village-wide famine. The Corporation's most immediately liquid assets are segmented, kept in a series of subterranean vaults scattered throughout the underground beneath the entire compound. This way, even if a few vaults are lost, the Corporation's entire nest egg isn't taken from them in one fell swoop.
- Public Services: - Certain public service buildings, such as hospitals, are all well kept and maintained, following a very strict and high standard. These are also not restrained by level or "class," ensuring that all members of the house are granted equal access to effective and adequate health care. The same is mostly true for civil court buildings, though military court cases, when applicable, are handled directly to the village. Public service buildings, such as employment offices, are scattered throughout the first two levels of the compound. Every Kamizuru, aside from the critically infirmed, irreparably maimed, or mentally deficient, has a use in the house, and the only way a Kamizuru is not employed is if they choose not to be employed. Those who do fall under those three categories are either cared for by their family or by the house itself at a medical facility, and families who have infirmed or otherwise deficient members, receive subsidies and breaks from the house on an individual case-by-case basis to help with caring for them.
Members of the house are encouraged to stay close to each other from birth onward, and this is a consistent teaching of the house's throughout a Kamizuru's life. Kamizuru who live in the compound are expected to actively contribute to the house's well-being, since it is directly connected to the village's well-being. This either means becoming a shinobi or working for the house in some commercial respect. Those who choose to live outside of the compound are not subject to these demands, but they are not granted any of the fiscal benefits house members might receive, either, and it is rare for a Kamizuru living outside of the house compound to receive work from the Company, extenuating circumstances aside.
The elderly are not given special treatment outside of what would be considered normal for Iwagakure. Funeral rites are also fairly standard. The hives of the deceased are memorialized by the family, and the family is allowed to reap the bounty of its produce for as long as the hive remains cohesive.
◘ Stance on the Military and House Justice System
The Kamizuru are incredibly patriotic, training its workers how to use ninjutsu both for working purposes and to serve as a standing militia in the case of smaller, more trivial pursuits. Shinobi are praised for their work in the house and are lauded as heroes, assuming they don't misuse their position. The house more or less keeps its hands free of military criminal justice unless it is an act that directly targets one of the members of the administration, one of the Corporation's Board Members, or the Queen. Civilian civil and criminal cases are handled by the house's local court systems if the disturbances are between two house members. Anything involving persons outside of the house is dealt with by the village itself.
◘ House Political Hierarchy
The Kamizuru utilize a three-chamber Congress. Each chamber is exactly 101 members in number, eliminating the possibility of a stalemate vote. The first chamber is the Chamber of Commons, which reviews legistlation and how it effects the ease and quality of life for its working citizens. The second chamber, the Chamber of Commerce, evaluates how a proposed piece of legislation will effect the house's financial prospects and how to best protect its investments. The third chamber, the Chamber of Defense, analyzes the legislation from a military point of view, surmising what good or ill effects the law being implemented might have on the house's combat-readiness. Once all three chambers pass a law, it goes to the Queen for a final, thorough analysis with her panel of advisors. If she signs the legislation, it is implemented. If she vetoes the legislation, she must appear before all three chambers to make her argument against the legislation. The Congress then puts it to a second vote, a 75% popular majority allowing them to override the veto. The way that these Congress members attain their positions, however, is not through political campaigns, but through brutal combat with the incumbents. These are no bars held matches save only for barring killing the house member. The members of the Congresses are almost all Jounin-level shinobi for that reason, and the Queen is unarguably the strongest among them until she is challenged and dethroned. There are no term limits for Congress members or for the Queen, and members can be challenged for their position at any moment.
◘ Political Involvement with and Loyalty to the Village
Aside from its normal obligations to the village, the Kamizuru pay the village for the use of its Compound. The house has never once in its history been late or defaulted on a payment, and the house is always available to help the village in regards to supplementary capital for economic and military ventures, demonstrating its almost iron clad loyalty to Iwagakure.
◘ Personal Involvement with the Village and its Citizens
Personal relationships between village members and the house are not regulated in any way. The Kamizuru, while heavily encouraged to stick together, do not dictate the life courses of its members.
◘ Religion and other Traditions and Symbolisms
The Kamizuru are more or less agnostic, though a large portion of them believe in the concept of guided evolution, providing what they feel is at least a plausible explanation for the abilities they received through chakra and the comfortable way of life they enjoy. Any sort of organized religious gatherings or proceedings are privately funded, none being officially sanctioned by the house. One quasi-religious tradition, however, is when a Shinobi decides to undergo the "Living Hive" modification. Those who become a living hive for their swarm are believed to represent the embodiment of the Kamizuru: beauty in both purpose and form, and such modifications are bestowed only upon the most loyal and upright of the Kamizuru. They also receive free housing from the house. Only shinobi of chuunin level or higher can undergo this operation, as one must have a well-trained chakra system to withstand the rigors of the modification.
Optional Body Modification:
Living Hive - After undergoing an extensive series of operations, this Kamizuru has become a living home for his or her colony of bees, housing their swarm and the by-products they create in their own bodies. Aside from serving as a living hive, the Kamizuru also receives up to three bee-like traits (Clan members may have any number of the below traits):
- Cilia - The hair upon the body of the Kamizuru transform into cilia. These fibers appear identical to hair in touch and appearance, but they are sensitive to the vibrations around them in the air. While this doesn't provide much on its own, adept shinobi can train themselves to read and interpret the sensations they receive from these filaments. As such, Kamizuru with this modifications can function quite well as sensors.
- Wing Foils - Using secret house medical techniques, the Kamizuru seamlessly graft wing foils onto the back of the patient's shoulder blades and link them to the patient's nervous system, coating their connection to the patient's nervous and cardiovascular systems with a carapace that is as hard as bone. The entire spinal column of the patient is reinforced with a thin coating of the carapace as well, a small part of the carapace lining the outside of the patient's skin along their spine. The wings grafted to the patient require both time for training and specialized, daily therapy to ensure that they grow properly and can be used properly. The patient is monitored 24/7 for two weeks following the final procedure to ensure that they do not damage the wings. As a result, the cuticle, the outside plating which protects the nerves and blood vessels on the inside of the wing, becomes thicker, enough to prevent superficial damage, such as small cuts and bruises, from preventing the foils from functioning. More serious wounds, obviously, will still damage the wings as it would their natural flesh. These function as natural wings, and they follow all system rules regarding flight with physical anatomy-based wings.
- Barbed Stingers - The shinobi receives six barbed stinger appendages. Two of them, small single jointed spikes akin to shivs, are grafted into the inside of the shinobi's forearms, dispelling and retracting through a pocket in the palms of the user's hands. Four of them, longer, multi-jointed prehensile limbs with large barbed serrated stingers on the ends, are placed into the small of the shinobi's back, extending and contracting from individual flaps of skin found close to the spinal column. These are connected to the shinobi's nervous and cardiovascular systems, and the internal connections to these are reinforced by a lining of carapace as hard as bone. These count as prehensile limbs, and while they cannot grip anything, attacks made with them follow all system rules in regards to taijutsu attacks.
House Techniques:HistorySatsujinhachi Attunement
Through their house's secret techniques, the Kamizuru have learned how to control swarms of killer bees known as the Satsujinhachi for various purposes. This manipulation also extends to the byproducts of the colony's operations, such as honey, beeswax, and Queen's Jelly.

The Kamizuru once sequestered themselves in a small hole in the Rock Country. They lived hard but relatively peaceful lives. This all changed when an upstart warlord tried to lay his stake to fame amongst the lesser villages of the Rock Country by organizing a force against the house, in the hopes that they would enslave them and harvest their resources. While this would not normally have been an issue for the singularly superior Kamizuru, the numbers of the warlord began to quickly swell, and the Kamizuru found themselves hard-pressed to defend themselves. Sending one of their finest scouts, they recruited the help of a recently formed coalition of shinobi, which called themselves Iwagakure no Sato and had support from the Daimyo of the Rock Country. After pleading for their help, the village offered a vexing proposition: they would help the Kamizuru completely wipe out the invading forces, but in return, the house had to relocate and join Iwagakure no Sato as a member. The normally isolationist house found this difficult to stomach, but they reluctantly agree, thinking that Iwagakure no Sato would not fulfill its promise. They had never been more mistaken up to that point; the shinobi of Iwagakure showed in full force and absolutely annihilated the warlord's forces. Not a single enemy soldier escaped, and friendly casualties were minimal. With such a display, the Kamizuru gladly bound themselves to the village, and they have enjoyed a prosperous existence ever since.
NinjutsuShow
Colonize
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
Obviously, one of the disadvantages of having a centralized hive is that all of the resources for one's jutsu come from a single area, a single source. This jutsu helps alleviate that issue to some degree. After making the needed seals, the house member commands the bees to detach from the rest of the swarm and accelerates their biological processes using the house member's chakra. At the end of the post, a very small branch hive will have been created at a target location within five meters of the house member. The hive's location is determined at the beginning of the jutsu, after the house member has completed the seals, completely external to the main body of the swarm. After the first post, the Satsujinhachi will build upon the new hive at a natural pace, the size doubling from its original girth after two posts, then tripling after four posts, etc. This jutsu cannot be used to increase the total size of the swarm or in combat, only to replace members of the swarm which have died off.
Stinger Artillery
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member channels chakra into their swarm and commands it to fire all stingers at the opponent in unison as a single, concentrated mass. The stingers fly at the opponent up to five meters away at a speed equal to the swarm's [Synch] stat. The Satsujinhachi regenerate their stingers with this jutsu as well, but the regrowth takes time, putting this jutsu on a one-post cooldown.
Honey's Bite
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member uses their chakra to command their swarm to manipulate sources of honey housed within the swarm into projectile weapons. The honey quickly coalesces, hardens into small projectile weapons of the house member's choice, and is thrown by the swarm in a single direction at [Sync] speed.
Sweet Binding
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member uses their chakra to command their swarm to manipulate sources of honey within itself into a thick puddle of honey. This puddle shoots out at a [Speed] of 5. If the opponent steps on this puddle, it inhibits movement and lowers their maneuverability on the battlefield, inflicting a -1 [Speed] penalty on them so long as they remain in the puddle's area. As it is made of real honey, the puddle will remain until it's removed by the use of another jutsu.
Honey Bomb
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to form a small, softball sized orb of dense honey. They then have until the end of the post to throw it at the opponent. With a single seal, they can detonate the orb, the honey exploding in a three meter radius with an explosive [Strength] of 5. As this technique splatters honey on the surroundings and potentially on the opponent, it makes objects sticky and can inhibit more precise movements on the battlefield due to its semi-adhesive nature.
Golden Fountain
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to gather honey before firing it in a single, joint liquid stream of honey. As the house member continues to pour chakra into this technique as they fire it, making it reach a speed equal to the house member's [Control]. The stream of honey shoots out with 5 [Speed] and 5 [Strength] for 2 p
Metabolic Acceleration
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member channels chakra into their swarm, accelerating their natural functions, particularly surrounding their reproduction and maturation rates. For the rest of this post and the next, the swarm will be charged with chakra. The house member can detach sections of the swarm and detonate the detached portions with an explosive [Strength] of 5.
Central Hive Command • Attack
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed handseals, the house member directs their swarm to attack a specific target or series of targets within a ten meter range of the house member. If the whole hive attacks a single target, they attack it with a strength equal to their full [Synch] stat. If they split up into groups, each group attacks with [Sync]/[Number of Groups].
Trapping Armor
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsurō Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to cover their torso, shoulders, forearms, thighs, lower legs, and the crown of their head in beeswax, forming into a rudimentary suit of armor at 10 [Speed]. This armor serves as a deceptively powerful defense, particularly against taijutsu attacks. Because the armor is made of beeswax, it still defends against attacks up to a maximum of 10 [Strength]. However, particularly for physical attacks, weapons and objects that strike the armor actually sink into the armor, and they require an equivalent strength to be pulled out of the beeswax armor. This armor lasts for up to 4 posts unless it is destroyed, but the house member can dispel this jutsu with a single seal.
Trapping Clone
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member will command their swarm, drawing it out and forming a clone made of honey, beeswax, or Queen's Jelly. This clone has a 1 in all stats, but because it's made of a physical medium, it can interact with the environment. When the clone is attacked, it detonates into a short, outward-moving wave of whichever product it was made of, which can trap a nearby opponent within 5 meters of the clone's position. This wave moves at 10 [Speed] and can bind the opponent with 10 [Strength].
Beeswax Maiden
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsurō Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house members commands their swarm to produce beeswax before throwing it at an opponent at a speed equal to their [Sync]. As the jutsu continues, the house member dedicates their focus and chakra to it for its duration. If they capture the opponent, the beeswax forms a cocoon of beeswax around the body of the opponent, slowly pressing in and crushing them with 10 [Strength]. This technique lasts for 5 posts.
Metabolic Boost
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member channels chakra into their swarm, accelerating their natural functions, particularly surrounding their reproduction and maturation rates. For the rest of this post and the next, the swarm will be charged with chakra. The house member can detach sections of the swarm and detonate the detached portions with an explosive [Strength] of 10.
Trapping Armor
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsurō Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to cover their torso, shoulders, forearms, thighs, lower legs, and the crown of their head in beeswax, forming into a rudimentary suit of armor at 20 [Speed]. This armor serves as a deceptively powerful defense, particularly against taijutsu attacks. Because the armor is made of beeswax, it still defends against attacks up to a maximum of 20 [Strength]. However, particularly for physical attacks, weapons and objects that strike the armor actually sink into the armor, and they require an equivalent strength to be pulled out of the beeswax armor. This armor lasts for up to 6 posts unless it is destroyed, but the house member can dispel this jutsu with a single seal.
Sticky Swamp
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their hive to produce a combination of honey and/or beeswax and floods the battlefield with the hyper-sticky mixture at 20 [Speed]. The mixture covers a 20 meter radius from the user, and if it is used in an enclosed space, can climb walls up to 4 meters due to its thickness. Any opponent caught in this radius or who steps into this radius has their feet sucked into the bog, and they require 20 [Strength] or higher to escape.
Honey Pot
A-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to accelerate the production of the materials inside of it, causing the swarm to grow an external tower-like appendage. For the duration of this technique, the house member controls the swarm directly. With this, the house member can create a number of sharp, actively moving tendrils equal to their [Sync]/2 which can attack and wrap around opponents up to 25 meters away. These tendrils move at a speed equal to the house member's [Sync] and they strike and constrict with a strength equal to the house member's [Sync]. This technique lasts for up to 7 posts, but it can end prematurely if the house member stops putting their chakra into the technique.
Metabolic Steroid
A-ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member channels chakra into their swarm, accelerating their natural functions, particularly surrounding their reproduction and maturation rates. For the rest of this post and the next, the swarm will be charged with chakra. The house member can detach sections of the swarm and detonate the detached portions with an explosive [Strength] of 20.
Metabolic Dominance
S-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member channels chakra into their swarm, accelerating their natural functions, particularly surrounding their reproduction and maturation rates. For the rest of this post and the next, the swarm will be charged with chakra. The house member can detach sections of the swarm and detonate the detached portions with an explosive [Strength] of 30.
IijutsuShow
Homeopathic Salve
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm. This honey can be placed atop small cuts or a single moderately deep gash and only needs to heal the wound(s) for 2 posts. If the cut(s) is/are mildly infected, the process takes an extra post, as the house member enhances the honey's natural purifying properties to clean the wound(s) for one post before healing them in the second post. This technique cannot be used to heal any more severe wounds, such as organ damage, and it is not potent enough to heal multiple gashes at one time.
Nutritional Supplement
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm, adding additional nutrients to the honey over the course of the post. They will then feed this honey to the patient. Aside from tasting good and being filling, the honey quickly diffuses these nutrients into the patients body. For a moderately malnourished patient, the house member must focus on this jutsu for an extra post to add more nutrients. This jutsu will have limited effect on a chronically malnourished patient.
Vitality Candy
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm. The house member must concentrate on this jutsu for two posts, during which they cannot move or perform any other actions. Then, after the two posts, the house member can feed this honey to an ally or patient, or they can eat it themselves.The honeycomb defuses and charges the one who ate it with Iijutsu chakra, passively healing small cuts they receive or have received with the chakra from the honey. This healing factor lasts for three posts after the person or creature first receives a wound. If the person or creature doesn't receive a wound within four posts of eating the honey, the honey breaks down in their stomach, the chakra wasted.
Poison Net
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm. After their swarm produces the honey, it is placed on or over an area affected by a D-Rank poison or lower ranked poison. Channeling chakra into the honey, the house member will draw a small, active sample of the poison into the honey. Then, a member of the swarm will burrow itself into the honey and eat a small portion of the poisoned honey. This both saves a portion of the poison and lets the house member observe the effects of the poison directly through the sacrifice of the worker bee. This does not cure the poison, but it does provide a sample of the poison from which to make an antidote.
Battle Cast
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member will concentrate for three posts, commanding their swarm to make a beeswax cast that will form over the part of the patient's body suffering from a bone fracture or a simple break. At the end of the three posts, the chakra in the beeswax will seep into the area the cast covers, the bone slowly beginning to heal. Over the course of the next five posts, the beeswax cast will begin to grow thinner and lose its color. At the end of the fifth post, assuming it isn't destroyed, the cast will crumble into pieces and into dust, the bone being completely repaired. This jutsu cannot treat multiple bone breaks or compound fractures, where the bone has penetrated the skin.
Expanding Sutures
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member will command their swarm to focus on a specific cut or gash. They will use their mandibles and honey, stitching the patient's wound up like a suture in the first post. In the second post, the swarm draws the suture closed and then expand over the wound, covering any exposed areas and protecting it from infection. As the skin and muscle around the wound heals, the body of the patient will break down the beeswax and build new skin in its place, healing the wound with either minimal or no scar tissue.
Rejuvenating Honeycomb
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member focuses on a small honeycomb, each cell filled with honey. The house must concentrate on this jutsu for four posts, during which they cannot move or perform any other actions. Then, after the four posts, the house member can feed this honey to an ally or patient, or they can eat it themselves. The honeycomb defuses and charges the one who ate it with Iijutsu chakra, quickly healing small cuts and slowly healing moderately deep gashes they receive or have received with the chakra from the honeycomb. This healing factor lasts for 5 posts after the person or creature first receives a wound. If the person or creature doesn't receive a wound within 6 posts of eating the honey, the honeycomb breaks down in their stomach, the chakra wasted.
Plug the Hole
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to cover a wound and began covering it with honey, beeswax, or Queen's Jelly. The product applied to the wound will staunch the bleeding and began to disinfect it as well. If the wound is of a low or medium grade, the product will begin to heal the wound within 1 (small wound) or 2 (medium wound) posts.
Mobile Bodycast
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to generate Queen's Jelly, and then place it over a major part of the body (arms, legs, or torso). The catalysed product forms a body cast for the patient. The covering prevents and cleans infection along with simultaneously healing the wounds suffered specifically on that area of the body. This jutsu can heal medium cuts and gashes and even minor organ damage over the 7 post duration, but any significant damage to organs and bone breakage will require more dedicated attention and separate jutsu.
Eye Patch
B-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member concentrates Iijutsu chakra into their swarm and its Queen's Jelly making process. The house member will direct their swarm to produce the infused Jelly atop an injured eye. Over the course of the next 5 posts, damage to the eye will be completely healed.
Direct Healing
B-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member makes a small incision and commands a small portion of their swarm through the incision into the patient's insides. Then, over the course of 3 posts, the house member can use these components to heal widespread minor damage to internal organs or moderate or severe damage to a single organ by using Queen's Jelly to patch up injuries. This jutsu can also be used to stop widespread internal bleeding and damage to major arteries, such as the aorta, but only one of these two functions can be executed with a single use of this jutsu. Also, this jutsu cannot rejuvenate organs that have failed, and it cannot be used to heal damage to the heart, as the level of control exerted by this technique is insufficient for treatment of such a delicate nature.
Cardiovascular Cleansing
B-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member concentrates for three posts on a small honeycomb, with Queen's Jelly, the size of a small orange. After the three posts breaks it down with their chakra and feeds it down the patient's mouth and throat into the esophagus and ultimately to the stomach, in the event that the patient cannot eat it themselves. This honeycomb begins to break down and release healing chakra into the patient's bloodstream, cleaning out bloodborne infections, freefloating cancerous cells, and poisons. This technique does not heal the physical structure of the vessels themselves, nor does it actually attack stationary tumors that may or may not be malignant.
Queen's Heart
A-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals and making an incision to allow access to the pericardium and the heart, the house member commands their swarm to produce Queen's Jelly and insert it into the patient. The house member uses the Queen's Jelly to coat the outside of the pericardium. While this jutsu is only useful to restoring cardial functionality, it is very potent, even with the potentially excruciating pain of the procedure. So long as the patient is being kept alive by other means, such as suspended animation, this jutsu, after 7 posts, will completely heal, clean, and restart the patient's heart. This jutsu is not a resurrection technique, as it cannot restore a heart that has experienced complete necrosis.
Royal Medicine
A-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals and making an incision on the patient's torso, the house member commands their swarm to enter the patient. The house member then commands the swarm to coat of any single failed or dead organ with Queen's Jelly. The Queen's Jelly completely revitalizes it, resuscitating faltering cells, replacing dead cells with new live ones, and cleaning and restarting the organ by the end of 5 posts. This is hardly a painless process, as it is essentially taking what few live cells remain from the organ and sustaining and replicating them. This jutsu is not a resurrection technique, as it cannot restore an organ where all of the cells are completely dead.
Nerve Reconstruction
A-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands the swarm to make a honeycomb densely packed with Queen's Jelly for 6 posts. After, the house member will take the honeycomb and feed it into the patient's stomach, either through the mouth or through an incision in the stomach. This technique, over the course of 10 posts, will completely heal all physical damage and most functionality damage to both of the patient's nervous system, including reconnecting previously severed nerve endings and cords. This jutsu cannot grow entirely new branches of the nervous system, such as in the case of an individual born without a particular limb or in the case of an amputee. This also does not extend to the neurology of the brain or the brain stem.
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm. This honey can be placed atop small cuts or a single moderately deep gash and only needs to heal the wound(s) for 2 posts. If the cut(s) is/are mildly infected, the process takes an extra post, as the house member enhances the honey's natural purifying properties to clean the wound(s) for one post before healing them in the second post. This technique cannot be used to heal any more severe wounds, such as organ damage, and it is not potent enough to heal multiple gashes at one time.
Nutritional Supplement
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm, adding additional nutrients to the honey over the course of the post. They will then feed this honey to the patient. Aside from tasting good and being filling, the honey quickly diffuses these nutrients into the patients body. For a moderately malnourished patient, the house member must focus on this jutsu for an extra post to add more nutrients. This jutsu will have limited effect on a chronically malnourished patient.
Vitality Candy
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm. The house member must concentrate on this jutsu for two posts, during which they cannot move or perform any other actions. Then, after the two posts, the house member can feed this honey to an ally or patient, or they can eat it themselves.The honeycomb defuses and charges the one who ate it with Iijutsu chakra, passively healing small cuts they receive or have received with the chakra from the honey. This healing factor lasts for three posts after the person or creature first receives a wound. If the person or creature doesn't receive a wound within four posts of eating the honey, the honey breaks down in their stomach, the chakra wasted.
Poison Net
D-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member infuses their chakra into the honey making process of their swarm. After their swarm produces the honey, it is placed on or over an area affected by a D-Rank poison or lower ranked poison. Channeling chakra into the honey, the house member will draw a small, active sample of the poison into the honey. Then, a member of the swarm will burrow itself into the honey and eat a small portion of the poisoned honey. This both saves a portion of the poison and lets the house member observe the effects of the poison directly through the sacrifice of the worker bee. This does not cure the poison, but it does provide a sample of the poison from which to make an antidote.
Battle Cast
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member will concentrate for three posts, commanding their swarm to make a beeswax cast that will form over the part of the patient's body suffering from a bone fracture or a simple break. At the end of the three posts, the chakra in the beeswax will seep into the area the cast covers, the bone slowly beginning to heal. Over the course of the next five posts, the beeswax cast will begin to grow thinner and lose its color. At the end of the fifth post, assuming it isn't destroyed, the cast will crumble into pieces and into dust, the bone being completely repaired. This jutsu cannot treat multiple bone breaks or compound fractures, where the bone has penetrated the skin.
Expanding Sutures
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member will command their swarm to focus on a specific cut or gash. They will use their mandibles and honey, stitching the patient's wound up like a suture in the first post. In the second post, the swarm draws the suture closed and then expand over the wound, covering any exposed areas and protecting it from infection. As the skin and muscle around the wound heals, the body of the patient will break down the beeswax and build new skin in its place, healing the wound with either minimal or no scar tissue.
Rejuvenating Honeycomb
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member focuses on a small honeycomb, each cell filled with honey. The house must concentrate on this jutsu for four posts, during which they cannot move or perform any other actions. Then, after the four posts, the house member can feed this honey to an ally or patient, or they can eat it themselves. The honeycomb defuses and charges the one who ate it with Iijutsu chakra, quickly healing small cuts and slowly healing moderately deep gashes they receive or have received with the chakra from the honeycomb. This healing factor lasts for 5 posts after the person or creature first receives a wound. If the person or creature doesn't receive a wound within 6 posts of eating the honey, the honeycomb breaks down in their stomach, the chakra wasted.
Plug the Hole
C-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Hachimitsu, Mitsurō, Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to cover a wound and began covering it with honey, beeswax, or Queen's Jelly. The product applied to the wound will staunch the bleeding and began to disinfect it as well. If the wound is of a low or medium grade, the product will begin to heal the wound within 1 (small wound) or 2 (medium wound) posts.
Mobile Bodycast
B-Ranked Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands their swarm to generate Queen's Jelly, and then place it over a major part of the body (arms, legs, or torso). The catalysed product forms a body cast for the patient. The covering prevents and cleans infection along with simultaneously healing the wounds suffered specifically on that area of the body. This jutsu can heal medium cuts and gashes and even minor organ damage over the 7 post duration, but any significant damage to organs and bone breakage will require more dedicated attention and separate jutsu.
Eye Patch
B-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member concentrates Iijutsu chakra into their swarm and its Queen's Jelly making process. The house member will direct their swarm to produce the infused Jelly atop an injured eye. Over the course of the next 5 posts, damage to the eye will be completely healed.
Direct Healing
B-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member makes a small incision and commands a small portion of their swarm through the incision into the patient's insides. Then, over the course of 3 posts, the house member can use these components to heal widespread minor damage to internal organs or moderate or severe damage to a single organ by using Queen's Jelly to patch up injuries. This jutsu can also be used to stop widespread internal bleeding and damage to major arteries, such as the aorta, but only one of these two functions can be executed with a single use of this jutsu. Also, this jutsu cannot rejuvenate organs that have failed, and it cannot be used to heal damage to the heart, as the level of control exerted by this technique is insufficient for treatment of such a delicate nature.
Cardiovascular Cleansing
B-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member concentrates for three posts on a small honeycomb, with Queen's Jelly, the size of a small orange. After the three posts breaks it down with their chakra and feeds it down the patient's mouth and throat into the esophagus and ultimately to the stomach, in the event that the patient cannot eat it themselves. This honeycomb begins to break down and release healing chakra into the patient's bloodstream, cleaning out bloodborne infections, freefloating cancerous cells, and poisons. This technique does not heal the physical structure of the vessels themselves, nor does it actually attack stationary tumors that may or may not be malignant.
Queen's Heart
A-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals and making an incision to allow access to the pericardium and the heart, the house member commands their swarm to produce Queen's Jelly and insert it into the patient. The house member uses the Queen's Jelly to coat the outside of the pericardium. While this jutsu is only useful to restoring cardial functionality, it is very potent, even with the potentially excruciating pain of the procedure. So long as the patient is being kept alive by other means, such as suspended animation, this jutsu, after 7 posts, will completely heal, clean, and restart the patient's heart. This jutsu is not a resurrection technique, as it cannot restore a heart that has experienced complete necrosis.
Royal Medicine
A-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals and making an incision on the patient's torso, the house member commands their swarm to enter the patient. The house member then commands the swarm to coat of any single failed or dead organ with Queen's Jelly. The Queen's Jelly completely revitalizes it, resuscitating faltering cells, replacing dead cells with new live ones, and cleaning and restarting the organ by the end of 5 posts. This is hardly a painless process, as it is essentially taking what few live cells remain from the organ and sustaining and replicating them. This jutsu is not a resurrection technique, as it cannot restore an organ where all of the cells are completely dead.
Nerve Reconstruction
A-Ranked Iijutsu
Prerequisite: Mitsubachi Swarm
After making the needed seals, the house member commands the swarm to make a honeycomb densely packed with Queen's Jelly for 6 posts. After, the house member will take the honeycomb and feed it into the patient's stomach, either through the mouth or through an incision in the stomach. This technique, over the course of 10 posts, will completely heal all physical damage and most functionality damage to both of the patient's nervous system, including reconnecting previously severed nerve endings and cords. This jutsu cannot grow entirely new branches of the nervous system, such as in the case of an individual born without a particular limb or in the case of an amputee. This also does not extend to the neurology of the brain or the brain stem.
