[center][color=#7A52A3][b][big]General Information[/big][/b][/color][/center]
[color=#7A52A3][b]Age:[/b][/color] 11
[color=#7A52A3][b]Gender:[/b][/color] Female
[color=#7A52A3][b]Height:[/b][/color] 157.48 cm
[color=#7A52A3][b]Weight:[/b][/color] 34 kg
[color=#7A52A3][b]Physical Features:[/b][/color]
[list][color=#7A52A3][*][i]Face/head:[/i][/color] Shiun has a round, full face. Her smile is delightful, the sort that lights up a room whenever it's flashed. Her lips are full and naturally darker than the rest of her skin, her nose wide but small. Like all Kinoko, her eyes are fully white with a lifeless look about them, seemingly lacking a pupil, yet the shape of her face does nothing but make her eyes glitter as she grins. Across the bridge of her nose and upper cheeks are dark lines, wrinkles of a sort that, while not looking anymore out of place than freckles at a distance, upon closer inspection, are, in fact, a sign of her developing fungal flesh in her face. Her hair is long, dark brown, braided and adorned with silver rings as decorations.
[color=#7A52A3][*][i]Body:[/i][/color] Shiun is large for her age, in more ways than one. Not just taller than average but over developed slightly in the chest and hip areas, much to her embarrassment when and if she takes a moment to think about it. Over all, though, she is quite slim and girlish with very little body fat, skinny limbs and a decent posture. 'Petite' would be an apt way to describe her.
[color=#7A52A3][*][i]Notable Features:[/i][/color] Like all Kinoko, Shiun has an impossible to hide, without the aid of jitsu of course, fungal growth emerging from her body. In her case it is a very obvious violet mushroom cap growing off of the top of her head. Large, both wide and tall, this purple cap is speckled with darker purple spots along the edges primarily and the gills are an even darker purple still. As of yet, this is the only fungal growth she has developed. [/list]
[color=#7A52A3][b]Clothing/Accessories:[/b][/color] Shiun wears a purple short dress, dyed and splotched to match her mushroom cap, with a deep V neck cut that does not cover her shoulders, has long sleeves that end in fingerless hand coverings, and goes down to just past her rear end. Beneath this dress she wears a pair of grey knee-length shorts adorned with pockets and a standard pair of Shinobi sandals. She wears a simple thong necklace that holds her samurai dog tag, reading her name on one side and "Gold" on the other, her country of origin. Around her waist she wears a belt which holds her butt bag and on her left hand she wears a certain ring that switches fingers as she sees fit...
[color=#7A52A3][b]Picture:[/b][/color] ---
[color=#7A52A3][b]Personality:[/b][/color]
[list][color=#7A52A3][*][i]General:[/i][/color] In a general sense, Shiun could be described as "a child" in personality. She's excitable, she's naive, ignorant of the world around her and how it functions, optimistic, cheerful. She'd rather believe in the best in people rather than automatically assume the worst, approaching others with an open mind and an open heart. Conversely, she's very much an opponent of injustice where she sees it. Be it mere bullying or something far more insidious, Shiun is steadfast and unafraid to speak and act out against such grievances to her fellow man. This is unfortunate for her because she often gets over zealous, says to much and puts her foot in her mouth, getting her in trouble more often than not and making her extremely embarrassed at her inability to read a room or situation and hold her opinions to herself until a more opportune moment.
Most unfortunate of all for her, though, is her suffering through a quite developed Imposter Syndrome. Shiun has an idea of what a ninja should and shouldn't be, molded by her ignorance and some very informative events during her younger years. The entire reason she became a samurai was to satisfy this Imposter Syndrome of hers, being the closest approximation of a ninja as she had access to, because she simultaneously believes it's what she wants to be and that she can never live up to her self imposed expectations of it, which is to say, being a ninja, not a samurai. No matter how much the reality of what being a "ninja" is, of which she learned during her time in the Pilot Program, she stubbornly holds on to her own personal idealized version of the trade and holds that as Truth. Despite any outward appearances, internally she is constantly doubting her course of action, and in her quiet, solitary moments, feels deep anxiety that she is not living up to what her potential and chosen career demands.
[color=#7A52A3][*][i]Hopes/Dreams:[/i][/color] To be as great of a kunoichi as her idol, Aimi Kagiya, was a shinobi.
[color=#7A52A3][*][i]Fears:[/i][/color] Being exposed as a fraud, saying something that will accidentally end up getting her killed.
[color=#7A52A3][*][i]Combat Mentality:[/i][/color] Shiun believes that the best way to approach combat is to avoid it as much as possible. To that end she is proficient in the use of genjutsu, deception and the avoidance of coming to harm. If she must stand her ground, however, she will not hesitate to do just that. [/list]

[color=#7A52A3][b]Equipment:[/b][/color] Shiun has on her person the standard set of equipment for a young samurai, including 5 kunai, 10 shuriken, 10m of wire, 5 exploding tags, 1 smoke bomb and 1 flash bang, all of which she keeps within the buttbag that she wears on her belt around her hips.
[Quote=Coms Device]This modern marvel of technology fits snugly as a headset over most people's heads, and an extendable antenna allows communication over long distances to keep troops in line... or simply as a personal communication device. Only requiring the barest whisper and a slight change in a dial on the side to choose a channel to send the message to, these communication devices are spread throughout the soldiers of the Heart Empire, making it easy to have backup when necessary. Within the Heart Empire, or anywhere that a booster has been set up (such as active warzones, or the trains that pass through the Heart Empire), the range is theoretically infinite. Outside of the bounds of the boosters, they are still able to communicate effectively up to 500m away.[/quote]
[spoiler=Musū][b][Musū]
Description:[/b] [url=https://i.imgur.com/zvOuwRp.png]The Musū is a spear which is 2.57 meters in length with a spearhead 0.29 meters long, made of a gold alloy primarily with intricate fuuinjutsu carvings all along the shaft of the spear, along the inside of the spear head, adorned with a red cloth flag and a mace-like counterweight pommel.[/url] Appearing mysteriously out of nowhere one morning, Shiun found it buried head first in the ground outside of her barracks one early morning as if waiting for her. When she took a hold of it, no one came for her, no one came to claim the spear as their own, and asking around for descriptions of such a weapon only produced puzzled looks or information which did not match the Musū. It is as if it materialized out of thin air for her specifically.
[b]Abilities:[/b] As far as abilities go Musū has two which make it stand out from other spears. The first is it's ability to transform into and from a gold ring at will, requiring only a small portion of chakra to do so, allowing the otherwise rather large spear to be transported around in an inconspicuous and unencumbering manner. The second is the ability to store within itself a number of identical copies of spears which can be withdrawn from it at will with only a small portion of chakra. These duplicates of Musū are unable to have chakra channeled into them in order to store other spears like the original nor to be transformed into a ring, meaning that only the original Musū possesses these abilities and thus can be identified by these capabilities. Furthermore, with the aid of a skilled enough crafstman, the fuuinjutsu inscribed on the spear shaft can be altered to allow for additional storage of spears. Currently Musū is capable of holding 8 spears within it. Both of these abilities require a D Rank's worth of chakra to activate.
Aside from these abilities and the seemingly stunning craftsmanship of the spear itself, Musū is an unremarkable spear, having no special durability beyond what a normal weapon of it's craftmanship would normally possess.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Deceiver's Amulet][quote=Deceiver's Amulet]A golden plated amulet comprised of square plates of gold which get progressively smaller the higher up on the clasp they become. The central plate is adorned with a circular amethyst gem. While wearing this amulet, Shiun radiates a mild aura of fear and intimidation, lowering the Willpower of anyone that is within 50 meters of her by 1 for as long as they remain within this area of effect.[/quote][/spoiler]

[table=2, Abilities][b][quote=Shinkin-niku (Fungus Flesh)]Believed to be blessed by a Goddess, the Kinoko's Kekkei Genkai gives them the capability of growing mushrooms from their bodies and their surroundings and to produce large amounts of spores from their tenketsu as well as any fungi the Kinoko member creates through an energy source they call Mycorrhiza, which would be identified by the five villages as chakra. These fungi and their spores can be utilized in a number of different ways with techniques of all sorts, making members of this clan highly versatile. Unless otherwise specified, mushrooms created through Kinoko techniques constantly produce spores from their gills. These spores are the basis of many Kinoko techniques, but have a weakness in that they are easily burned, washed off or blown away.
Kinoko clan members vary wildly in appearance depending on age, birth, and even their chosen specialization to some extent with older clan members having more of their body covered with larger and more diverse forms of fungi. As such, while each member share common traits of dark skin and pale, faded eyes the rest of their appearance can vary wildly, making it so that no two Kinoko share much commonality in how they look, their uniqueness only growing with time.
[spoiler=Fungal Growths]As of right now, Shiun's only notable fungal growth is the lilac cap growing on the top of her head. Despite this being the only growth she currently has, it is unusually large, dominating the top of her head and constantly eclipsing her in shade. The type of fungus which she grows is Laccaria Amethystina, or amethyst deceiver. In much the same way as wild example of this mushroom, the more dehydrated Shiun becomes the duller in color her cap becomes, gradually spreading out and flattening until, at peak dehydration, the cap inverts and folds in on itself, exposing the gills. This state will revert once she becomes hydrated again, but as it is, it is an easy way to tell how hydrated she is. [/spoiler][/quote][/b][c]
[c][Quote=Prodigy]
Shiun Kinoko is particularly talented and is able to use two additional concentrations, bringing her total to 20.[/quote][c]
[c][b]Third Ability[/b][c][/table]
[table=2, Concentrations][b]Ninjutsu[/b][c]
[spoiler=Sensory][quote=Sensory][b]Sensor[/b]
Sensors are shinobi who are able to activate a sixth sense which can locate and read chakra sources. Sensory is advantageous as it allows shinobi to perceive without using any of their conventional senses, which can easily be deceived. Sensors are able to collect a lot of information through the interpretation of this sixth sense.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Doton Concentration]
[quote=Doton][color=saddlebrown][b]Doton Affinity[/b][/color]
A character with this concentration is able to utilize Doton, and can make and use any custom or archived jutsu that require the doton affinity. Doton has a passive [color=saddlebrown][i]enduring[/i][/color] effect.
[spoiler=Passive (Enduring)]Doton has a passive effect of [b]Endurance[/b], which means that it's power is retained throughout the entirety of the jutsu. All of a single doton jutsu retains the strength of the jutsu, even after the jutsu has been destroyed, and unlike other jutsu, doton does not fade when destroyed. This means that if a doton barrier with 25 strength is cut in half and falls to the ground, a part of that barrier could be picked up and carried as a hand held shield which would still have 25 strength, despite being a fractured part of a jutsu. This creates incredibly potent defenses, making doton a popular affinity among defensive fighters.[/spoiler][/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Kinton Concentration][quote=Kinton:][color=gold][b]Kinton Affinity[/b][/color]
A character with this concentration is able to utilize Kinton, and can make and use any custom jutsu that require the Kinton affinity. Kinton has a passive [color=Gold][i]weighing[/i][/color] effect.
[spoiler=Kinton]Kinton is an elemental extension of Doton, considered a "Super Release". Kinton functions as an element that can create, manipulate and modify gold specifically, as well as coat and turn things into gold, making it a flashy and lucrative element to be sure. Kinton has a [b]weighing[/b] passive that causes it to cling to things and rapidly increase their weight, causing them to slow down, in the case of objects which can move on their own, or requiring greater Strength to lift, in the case of those that cannot. When a Kinton jutsu comes into contact with something, it clings to it, causing an increase in weight in pounds equivalent to 1/2 the Strength of the jutsu for each time contact was made and/or each post contact remains constant.[/spoiler][/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Advanced Channeling][quote=Advanced Channeling]This user has superb chakra control, and has learned to perform jutsu by channeling, without the use of hand seals. The user can channel any Ninjutsu that is designed to be channel, and there are no specified parameters in which a jutsu must fall to be channeled by this method.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Iijutsu][quote=Iijutsu][color=#008b5e][b]Iijutsu[/b][/color]
This concentration allows for the user to user chakra to modify, speed up, or slow down the biological processes of a living creature. Iijutsu is known for it's advanced nature and requires precise chakra control to work effectively. It can be differentiate from normal techniques by the faint light green color of the chakra used in Iijutsu techniques.[/quote][/spoiler]
[c]
[b]Taijutsu[/b][c][spoiler=Guanyin Bodhisattva][quote=Guanyin Bodhisattva]A character with this concentration is able to utilize Guanyin Bodhisattva ninpou, and can make and use any custom jutsu that require the Guanyin Bodhisattva affinity. This concentration, like ninpou, has no passive effects.
[spoiler][b][color=gold]Guanyin Bodhisattva[/color][/b] release is an extremely advanced extension of [color=#80A0FF]Ninpou[/color], requiring not only advanced knowledge of ninjutsu but also taijutsu – [b]Heavenly Body Control[/b] specifically. The use of these jutsu cannot be done without both the [b]Heavenly Body Control[/b] and [b]Advanced Channeling[/b] concentrations as they are all intrinsically linked to use of not just chakra and handseals but also the body. [b][color=gold]Guanyin Bodhisattva[/color][/b] release is a union of both ninpou and taijutsu and as such occupy places in both pyramids. [b][color=gold]Guanyin Bodhisattva[/color][/b] release allows the user to not only perform these jutsu but to do so without the use of handseals, replacing this instead with a very specific set of movements done with the arms and the hands to initiate each and every jutsu related to this release. These movements of arm and hand can [i]only[/i] be used when performing [b][color=gold]Guanyin Bodhisattva[/color][/b] release jutsu and are not a substitute for the standard handseals of any other concentration. [/spoiler][/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Deft Hands][quote=Deft Hands]The fundamental skill of [b][Deft Hands][/b] indicates the user’s proficiency with using their hands in very specific and complex movements, like sleight of hand and targeting very small and specific points on an opponent’s body. This facilitates their use of related Taijutsu in various ways.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Projectile Weapons][quote=Projectile Weapons]The fundamental skill of [b][Projectile Weapons][/b] indicates the user’s proficiency with weapons designed to attack from afar, such as bows, shuriken, senbon, launchers and the like. This facilitates their use of related Taijutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Perception][quote=Perception]The fundamental skill of [b][Perception][/b] describes the user’s practiced methods of more keenly focusing their senses for a short time. This facilitates their use of related Taijutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Polearms][quote=Polearm Weapons]The fundamental skill of [b][Polearm Weapons][/b] indicates the user’s proficiency with staves, spears, halberds, pikes, scythes and other like weapons. This facilitates their use of related Taijutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Heavenly Body Control][quote=Heavenly Body Control]The fundamental skills of [b][Heavenly Body Control][/b] cannot be mastered by those with less than 35 Endurance, , Strength and Speed. These skills include those required to create almost ninjutsu-equivalent effects simply from the movement of one’s body such as animal shaped blasts of compressed air from especially positioned hands and other similar feats which are beyond reality. This facilitates their use of related Taijutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]

[b]Genjutsu[/b][c][spoiler=Illusion of Force][quote=Illusion of Force Genjutsu]This user has learned to add a physical component when using genjutsu, allowing them to create the sensation of pulling, pushing, or evoking some force against their target.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Scent Initiation][quote=Scent Initiation]
This user has learn to use smells to intiate genjutsu. Allowing them to utilize and produce various scents to capture their targets in genjutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Sound Initiation][quote=Sound Initiation]
This user has learn to use sound cues to initiate genjutsu. Allowing them to create sounds and sustain sounds to capture their targets in a genjutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Touch Initiation][quote=Touch Initiation]
This user has learn to use physical sensations to initiate genjutsu. Allowing them to physical touch the target, or touch them with objects to capture their targets in genjutsu.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Status Initiation][quote=Status Genjutsu]This user has learned how to utilize Status Genjutsu that impose mental and cognitive effects on their target.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Warp Initiation][quote=Warp Genjutsu]This user has learned to combine the basics of Status and Illusion genjutsu, allowing them to use single techniques to create sensory illusions, as well as status changes on their target.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Advanced Channeling][quote=Advanced Channelings]This user has superb chakra control, and has learned to perform jutsu by channeling, without the use of hand seals. The user can channel any genjutsu that is designed to be channel, and there are no specified parameters in which a jutsu must fall to be channeled by this method. Channeling Genjutsu causes the user to be surrounded in an aura of chakra while channeling the genjutsu, until the genjutsu is initiated.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Chakra Traversal Initiation][quote=Chakra Traversal Initiation]The chakra traversal initiator is a very specific method of initiating genjutsu that is not so commonly used outside of those who are equally proficient in the study of chakra. When a shinobi channels or controls a ninjutsu, there exists a direct conduit between the jutsu and their tenketsu. This initiator uses making direct contact with the targets channeled jutsu, using the aforementioned conduit to directly send their own chakra to the target and trigger their genjutsu.
Initiating through Chakra Traversal requires one concentration.[/quote][/spoiler]
[spoiler=Concept Initiation][quote=Concept Genjutsu]Concept Genjutsu are jutsu which are activated through understanding of specific concepts. Rather than being triggered from more traditional forms of sensory input, a target must have an understanding of the imbedded concept for the genjutsu to trigger. Moreover, imbedded concepts need to be actively thought about in order for the illusion to take hold. This means that someone who is caught within a Concept Genjutsu could potentially go for extremely long periods of time without it activating, and that the methods of activation are potentially diverse and myriad, for once a target understands the imbedded concept they need only think about it to trigger the activation - regardless of how the thought occurs.
Despite Concept Genjutsu being initiated by thoughts, they must still be implanted via other Genjutsu Initiators. This means that, in order to plant a Concept Genjutsu onto a target, the user must utilize one of the other initiators at their disposal (Touch, Sight, Sound, etc.). Concept Genjutsu have an extremely long potential delay period before they activate, a maximum of 10 posts. If the Genjutsu is not initiated in that time, it does not and cannot be activated afterwards, and the user will need to reinitiate a Concept Genjutsu on their target. Triggered by 'thought', merely thinking of a word is not enough to activate a Concept Genjutsu. A target must have an understanding of the concept and think of that concept, conjuring up a visual (if applicable), audible indicator (if applicable) or some other mental process which constitutes an actual thought on the Concept at hand. In other words, they need to be able to both understand and imagine the concept in some form or another.
The user must have both Status and Warp Concentrations to utilize Concept Genjutsu, as well as Illusion of Force.[/quote][/spoiler][/table]

[spoiler=Ninjutsu][spoiler=Kinojutsu][b][color=#00829B]~Lesser Spore Cloud[/color][/b]
D-ranked Nintaijutsu
The user gathers chakra throughout their body before releasing a thick cloud of spores that cover an area equal to the user's [Control] stat in meters. Inhaling these spores is comparable to inhaling smoke or ash and can cause heavy, labored coughing to anyone caught within it unexpectedly. The cloud lasts for two posts or until cleared by some means such as a fuuton technique. These mushrooms and spores can be used for other jutsu.
[b][color=#00829B]~Mushroom Genesis[/color][/b]
D-ranked Ninjutsu
The user gathers chakra and sends it to a point within a number of meters equal to their Control stat in meters at a Speed of [Control]. From this point mushrooms grow at a Speed of [Control], covering an area of 1 meter in diameter. These mushrooms have a Strength of [Control] and are constantly creating spores. These mushrooms and spores can be used for other jutsu. The user cannot make these mushrooms grow on metal, stone, concrete or similar materials.
[b][color=#00829B]~Spring-step Mushroom[/color][/b]
D-ranked Ninjutsu
The user gathers chakra and sends it to a point within a number of meters equal to their Control stat in meters at a Speed of [Control]. From this point a single, large mushroom, the cap roughly three feet in diameter with a sturdy, one foot tall stem will sprout. This mushroom sprouts with [Control] Speed and Strength and is constantly creating spores. This msuhroom and it's spores can be used for other jutsu. This mushroom is springy and elastic and can be jumped on to propel the user in any direction with +3 Speed while airborne. This mushroom is capable of propelling individuals or objects up to 10 meters.
[b][color=#00829B]~Fungal Scrying[/color][/b]
D-ranked Ninjutsu
The user gathers chakra and sends it to an existing fungus within a number of meters equal to their Control stat in meters from them. From then on, up to 3 posts, the user can see through this fungus as if it were their own eyes allowing them to see whatever is within the immediate area, able to see as far as their eyes normally would without the aid of other enhancing techniques.
[b][color=#00829B]~Fungal Eavesdropping[/color][/b]
D-ranked Ninjutsu
The user gathers chakra and sends it to an existing fungus within a number of meters equal to their Control stat in meters from them. From then on, up to 3 posts, the user can hear through this fungus as if it were their own ears allowing them to hear whatever is within the immediate area, able to hear as far as 5 meters away from the fungus.
[b][color=#00829B]~Elizabethan Mushroom[/color][/b]
C-ranked Kinojutsu
Prerequisite: 10 Endurance
The user gathers Mycorrhiza and creates a thick, white mushroom from their body. Upon consumption of this mushroom, the body will begin to heal itself in a regenerative fashion. The rate of regeneration depends on the user's Control stat, as specified by the standard regeneration table. This mushroom is only capable of healing Moderate wounds and lesser.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Iijutsu][b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Personal Protective Equipment][/color][/b]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
When real latex equipment is not on hand, the user will perform a single hand seal and will focus chakra onto their hands, nose, and mouth to form a thin layer of chakra around them at [Control] Speed and Strength. This chakra will filter bacteria and other particles to and from the user, the environment, and their medical equipment. This technique can be held as long as the user has chakra.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Sterilization Technique][/color][/b]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user will channel the needed chakra throughout their upper body (torso, arms, hands, face) at [Control] Speed. This chakra will chew away at harmful bacteria and other foreign bodies on the skin, cleansing it until it is thoroughly sterile, and can be spread to objects, most commonly surgical tools. Users of this technique can also choose to sterilize certain parts of their upper body or the wounds of another person instead. Once they are sanitized, they remain this way until coming in contact with more bacteria.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • CPR][/color][/b]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After focusing chakra into the hands, the user will place both over the target's chest or back. By allowing the chakra to be channeled throughout the lungs and up through the air ways, any unseen, solid or liquid obstructions will be cleared from these passages and ejected through the mouth, allowing the patient to breathe more easily. Additionally, the hands can be placed over the heart to stimulate it as if it was manually receiving CPR.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Blood Clot Technique][/color][/b]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After focusing chakra into their hands, the user will hover them over the bleeding wound and begin to channel chakra through it. The chakra will began to thicken the blood, causing it to clot at [Control] Speed. Wounds can be dealt with one limb at a time and the number of wounds that can be tended to within the three (3) posts that this technique lasts depends on their size. Although this technique stops the bleeding, the wound remains vulnerable and will require further care after this has been performed.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Bandage Technique][/color][/b]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user may channel chakra into an object (such as a leaf, piece of cloth, etc.) in the absence of bandages to sterilize it and is able to apply it to the wound of a patient. Once applied, the selected object will adhere to the flesh around the wound, protecting it from bacteria and other harmful foreign bodies. Wounds covered by this jutsu not only are safeguarded against bacteria but also applied an antiseptic and burn ointment to further provide aid.[/quote]
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Local Anesthesia][/color][/b]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user will channel chakra into their hands and then place them over a group of muscles. Their chakra will spread through the muscle group at [Control Speed and numbness will begin to creep throughout it, beginning with the flesh before seeping into the muscle below. This numbing begins where the user has placed his/her hands and spreads outward until the hands are removed. The numbness can only cause pain equivalent to being stabbed with a kunai to be nullified. Once numbed, the effects last for four (4) posts before fading.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Basic Antidote Technique][/color][/b]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user will channel their chakra and then make a small incision on the patient before placing their hands over the new wound. As this chakra is channeled into the body, the poison is extracted and contained in a green orb of chakra in the user's palm at [Control] Speed. Once extracted, the liquid poison will be suspended in the containment orb. Their chakra then mutates the poison at [Control] speed and rearranges it into an antidote. This antidote is effective on C-rank or lower poisons and induces immunity to the specific poison the patient was ailed with for 7 posts.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Skin Mask][/color][/b]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
This particularly disturbing technique is typically utilized by medical-nin operating covertly. After obtaining a dead body, the user will channel chakra into the deepest layer of skin to carefully remove the facial skin from the underlying tissue. Once this has been done, the user will focus their chakra into the separated skin before applying it to his/her face. As this chakra makes contact with the user's skin, the skin cells will bond, creating a seamless mask. This new face remains stable for up to three (3) threads before it will begin to rot.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Blood Transfer Technique][/color][/b]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user must make small incisions into the patient and donors' bodies to open a vein. Once the vein has been opened, the user will begin to channel chakra into the donor and the patient at [Control] Speed. The patient's blood pressure will increase and stabilize itself while the donors blood pressure will decrease due to the transfer of blood. No more than 1 liter (2 pints) of blood can be transferred using this technique without repercussions such as fainting, loss of sensation, anemia, and death. In the event a donor is not available, the user may act as the donor. This also acts to allow the donor and patient to be a synthetic match so as to not send the patient into shock. This technique does not transfer KKG permanent or otherwise to the patient.
[b]*[color=#008b5e][Iijutsu • Chakra Stitching][/color][/b]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
The user performs a short set of hand seals and then will gently place their index finger at the base of the patient's wound. Once this is done, the user will lift their finger and touch it to the other side of the wound, causing a visible 'stitch' of chakra to appear and hold the wound together with [Control] Strength. This is repeated until the wound has been pulled together. Actions performed with more [Strength] or [Speed] than the [Control] used to create the stitch will destroy it.[/spoiler]

D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After channeling chakra into one of their fists, the user will then attempt to strike their target and if successful, they will release additional concussive force in the form of an outward explosion with [Control] Strength from their fist. If the user does not strike a target within 3 posts the jutsu dissipates.

[i]D-Rank Ninjutsu[/i]
By channeling chakra into his feet, Taiga will cause his foot to release a controlled blast of chakra from it's bottom equal to a D-Rank explosion. A clever technique, the force created by the weak explosion gives his foot enough resistance to push off of seemingly thin air, allowing him to "spring" himself up.
[b]*[color=#80A0FF][Ninjutsu • Tracking Device][/color][/b]
D-Ranked Ninjutsu
After performing the correct hand seals the user will coat one of their hairs in chakra. Once this has been done, they will place it on their target. The user can track the exact location of the strand of hair for up to 10 meters. For up to 20 meters out, the user can track a rough location. From then out to 100 meters, the user just gets a general direction of where the opponent is. The chakra in the hair will dissipate at the end of 6 posts.

C-Ranked Ninjutsu
Despite requiring both hands and more time than *[color=#80A0FF][Basic Jutsu • Chakra Kai][/color], Multiple Chakra Kai allows the user to activate up to five objects simultaneously, up to 25 meters away.
[b]*[color=#80A0FF][Ninjutsu • Advanced Transformation Technique][/color][/b]
C-Ranked Ninjutsu
An advanced form of the Transformation Technique, after performing the correct hand seals and holding the final one temporarily, the user will coat and mold chakra around their body into the shape and form of something or someone which is no more than twice their size. This technique's true advantage is that the disguise is given physical substance. This means, for example, if they transform into something with claws, they will have claws that can physically be used. For the disguises 5 post duration, if it is damaged by a hit of more than [Control] Strength, the disguise "poofs" from existence. This includes collateral damage caused by striking an opponent that may occur to the disguise.

[i]C-Rank Ninjutsu[/i]
The user will channel chakra into a projectile as they throws it then the projectile will emit a puff of smoke that reveals a 30 meter wall of that projectile moving at the same Speed and Strength as the user out into the initial throw, creating up to the user's Control x 3 number of said projectile. These projectiles impact in the same way as the weapon thrown, and disappear after they've hit a target.

[spoiler=Kinton][Color=gold][b]Kinton • Bow Your Head[/b][/color]
C-Rank Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: A weapon of some sort
The user performs the handseals or channels kinton chakra into a weapon that they are in contact with. For the next five posts, whenever the user or anyone wielding the weapon in question would strike a person or object, said strike applies the Kinton passive to the individual or object in question, exponentially increasing their weight for each strike applied. The amount of Speed reduced/Strength required to lift the object is equal to the amount of [Control] that was put into this jutsu.
[Color=gold][b]Kinton • Flashy Exit[/b][/color]
C-Rank Ninjutsu
Prerequisite: *[Basic Jutsu • Change of Body Stance Technique]
A variation on the *[Basic Jutsu • Change of Body Stance Technique], the user performs the handseals and replaces their body with a mass of ryo coins roughly the same size as their body which take a blow for them. Upon receiving said blow the coins will scatter in a large burst, covering a 10 meter area in a shiny, distracting manner, allowing the user ample time to make an escape, reposition themselves or otherwise hide as they see fit. This jutsu may only be used a total of one time in a single thread, give or take how many times Shunshin no Jutsu has already been used.
[Color=gold][b]Kinton • Money Money Money[/b][/color]
D-Rank Ninjutsu
The user performs the handseals or channels Kinton chakra into their hand, creating a numerical amount of ryo coins equal to the user's Control. These coins can be thrown as a distraction or used in other, more creative ways.
[Color=gold][b]Kinton • Golden Breath[/b][/color]
D-Rank Ninjutsu
The user performs the handseals and takes in a deep breath before blowing, exhaling a fine golden dust from their mouths that covers an area equal to the user's [Control] in meters. Coming into contact with this golden dust increases the weight of whatever is in it equal to the user's [Control] as per the Kinton passive. This dust hangs in the air for 3 posts before settling to the ground.
[Color=gold][b]Kinton • Heavy Kissing[/b][/color]
D-Rank Nintaijutsu
The user performs the handseals, sending Kinton chakra into their lips and coating them with a thin layer of gold. For the next 3 posts, whenever the user places their lips on an object, that object's weight increases as per the Kinton passive equal to the user's [Control].

[spoiler=Taijutsu][spoiler=Kugapou]*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Soft Paws[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Soft Paws is a bare-handed deflection technique and is used against bladed weapons. At this level, the practitioner is able to read the angles of the attacks to place the flat of their hand against the flat of the blade and push it away without getting cut by the weapon. However, prolonged use of this technique will cause the practitioner to suffer bruises on their hands.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Down Paw[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Whenever a bladed weapon is coming towards the practitioner, they can slam their palm against the top of the blade, pushing it downwards. This can either cause the sword to miss or, if the practitioner's Strength is equal to or higher than the Strength of the attack, can force the sword into the ground. This technique only works on blades that aren't double-edged.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Slight Dodge[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Whenever in a situation where they can't avoid being struck, the practitioner will slightly shift their body. This slight movement allows them to cause the incoming attack to miss any vital organs and cause as little damage as possible.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Soft Elbow[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Requirement: *[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Soft Paws[/b][/color]
After using Soft Paws to slap a blade away, the practitioner will continue moving forwards while jutting out their elbow. The momentum from the target's original attack that was slapped away, coupled with the sudden defenselessness of the target after having their attack deflected, makes for a powerful counter-attack. The elbow can be aimed anywhere on the torso and above, but is usually aimed at the target's face.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Down Rush[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Requirement: *[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Down Paw[/b][/color]
After using Down Paw to drive the opponent’s blade downward or into the ground, the practitioner will rush forward and ram their shoulder into the opponent, driving them back and away from their weapon or even taking the weapon from them outright.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Quick Fang[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Useful for dealing with an opponent using a short weapon, such as a kunai, knife, or dagger, the practitioner waits for the opponent to attack. Taking advantage of the small size of the weapon, the practitioner then aims a slap or a punch at the opponent's fingers, aiming to simultaneously push the weapon off its trajectory and damage or even crush the opponent's fingers.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Leveraged Fang[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
The practitioner will sidestep a weapon attack against them and attempt to disarm the opponent. They will grab and pull the weapon on a safe or dull spot before simultaneously slamming the other palm into the opponent's wrist. If the opponent has a Rigid Structure technique of equal or higher rank than this technique, they can resist being disarmed. Otherwise, the weapon is ripped from the opponent's grasp and their hand is knocked away. Their wrist will swell from the impact, making handling weapons in that hand difficult if the wrist isn't outright broken due to the practitioner having a higher Strength than the opponent.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Hunter's Prediction[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
By observing a weapon's movement through the air and having a deep understanding of weaponry in general, the practitioner is capable of predicting a weapon's trajectory. This technique is especially effective when the practitioner saw the actual moment the weapon was launched, as seeing the movement of the weapon wielder provides crucial information. If they didn't see the weapon being launched, they can still predict the trajectory to a smaller degree but are incapable of accounting for high-level taijutsu that may be applied to the weapon attack.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Intercept Fang[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
The practitioner catches an attacking weapon with both hands and halts its momentum. Once they have stopped the motion of the attack, the practitioner will wrench their hands in a single direction to deflect the weapon or even rip the weapon out of the opponent's hands. Opponents with a higher Strength than the practitioner's Strength can resist being disarmed.
*[b][color=#fc074f]Kūgāpou • Spun Fang[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Ducking under an attack from either side, the practitioner lifts their off-hand just enough to touch the weapon against its side and shove it outward, adding to its momentum to either imbalance the opponent or disarm them. As the practitioner comes up from under the attack, they will aim a direct punch at the opponent's face or chest.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Kushou-Ryu][color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・The Viper Flicks its Tongue[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
This simple technique involves thrusting quickly with the user’s long weapon from a distance before quickly pulling back their polearm to prevent counters. This techniques most useful aspect is that it can be used while in motion without affecting speed or momentum.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・The Courtier Taps his Fan[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
This simple technique involves proper use of the pole of the user’s weapon to deflect blows. By properly angling and maneuvering their spear or staff they can deflect other like weapons, hand to hand blows or even sword blows by striking the right place at the right time, even while in motion.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・Low Wind Rising[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
The foundational stance of the Kushou style, Low Wind Rising involves the spinning of the user’s spear or polearm around their body constantly whilst remaining in motion. While in this stance, the user will be able to deflect projectiles with less strength than their own, while also making unpredictable movements of their spear.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・Parting the Silk[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: * Kushou・Low Wind Rising
This simple technique involves engaging an opponent’s weapon or one of their arms and moving it slightly to one side with the user’s weapon. This creates a very small opening which the user then exploits by kicking the opponent, keeping their weapon guarding the opponent’s arms.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・The Swallow Takes Flight[/color][/b]
D-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
The user will vault themselves into the air using their polearm and then unleash a powerful blow from above. This technique is used to disorient and surprise foes as well as overpower them as it strikes with all of the user’s body weight and momentum from the spin they perform in the air in order to strike with the spear that was touching the ground moments before.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・Twisting the Wind[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: * Kushou・Low Wind Rising
This is the core technique of the Kushou Style. The user will begin in the Low Wind Rising stance and then approaches their opponent. They will begin with a wide arcing blow to begin this combination of blows. Following this they will spin their polearm and their body as they follow their opponent across the battlefield, chasing them down as they block and evade. This technique takes the user’s entire post, and can strike a number of times equal to half their speed. Those who block more than one blow will suffer a -3 to Strength for 3 posts as the weapon’s momentum and force jars their body.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・The Swallow Rides the Wind[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: * Kushou・The Swallow Takes Flight
The user of this technique must first launch themselves high into the air as if with The Swallow Takes Flight. They will then begin to spin and unleash a flurry of blows from above. The user is capable of performing up to three strikes in the air, each of them prolonging the user’s airtime. The Swallow Rides the Wind is useful as it maintains the advantageous high ground and all of the forward momentum toward the opponent throughout all of its blows, giving the user an effective +6 Strength and -6 Control for the three blows.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・Folding the Fan[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Stance
Prerequisite: [Sword Weapons] concentration
A supplementary stance of the Kushou style, Folding the fan involves pulling back the user’s polarm and using only a portion of its length in order to engage briefly in shorter range with opponents. This sacrifices the user’s range advantage, but also allows them to more properly deal with those who get inside their range. This allows the use of a polearm weapon like a sword weapon.
[color=darkolivegreen][b]* Kushou・Bundling Straw[/color][/b]
C-Ranked Taijutsu Discipline
This technique is a kind of mental preparation for the constant movement and spinning involved in the Kushou style. This enables the user to gather snippets of vision, sounds and tactile sensory information in order to be properly aware of the battlefield around them whether standing still or in rapid circular motion. The user is effectively aware of their surroundings within 25m of their person, able to recognize when attacks are coming and the body positions of opponents.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Shoot Out Style]Quick Draw
D-Ranked Discipline Taijutsu
The practitioner has learned to a point of it being second nature how to flawlessly and quickly draw their weapons from their person, limited only by the boundaries of their full physical speed. Though seemingly irrelevant, this is often the difference in who shoots first. Secondary to this learned skill is also the ability to quickly re-holster or store weapons and draw different weapons.
Shoot From The Hip
D-Ranked Discipline Taijutsu
Requires: Quick Draw

Bouncing Projectile
D-Ranked Maneuver Taijutsu
The practitioner aims a projectile at a shallow angle, targeting the ground or a hard surface. The shallow angle of the shot causes the projectile to bounce off of the surface, moving at -1 Speed and striking with -1 Strength after the bounce.

Duck n' Roll
D-Ranked Discipline Taijutsu
Requires: High Tension Stance Active
The practitioner has an uncanny awareness of incoming threats and can seamlessly roll, duck, and dodge for cover to the maximum extent of their physical abilities, even in the middle of attacking. This truly gives a "gunslinger" vibe to practitioners as they roll in behind obstacles unleashing a flurry of attacks.
High Tension
C-Ranked Stance Taijutsu
High Tension stance allows a user to rely on speed, deftness, and perception through heightened sensory input to be quicker to the draw in every way, breaking a standstill and tipping the odds in one's favor. In this stance the practitioner has their shoulders squared back with their hands at their holsters, allowing them to quickly draw and fire with precision. Their stance balance's their weight on the balls of their feet, allowing their legs to use their natural spring to move one explosive fast movement. But above all, through great training stance unlocks a heightened sensory input allowing them to more quickly react, to the point of almost appearing to "preact". This stance grants a +5 in speed, but a -5 in strength.
On The Move
C-Ranked Discipline Taijutsu
The practitioner has learned how to accurately launch projectiles while moving through the flow of combat: whether jumping, rolling, airborne, sliding, or doing other basic combat movements at full speed, they are capable of hitting their mark.
Multi-Draw

They know how to throw it for maximum damage and impact. This means when using makeshift weapons there is no penalty and they are just as effective as if it was a real weapon in the practitioner's hand.
Situational Awareness
C-Ranked Discipline Taijutsu
The practitioner has keen senses and perception and has trained to use them to have advanced spatial sense. This allows them to envision complex happenings around them with ease: this means it is hard to surprise attack the practitioner as they are always aware of their position and their surroundings. Likewise, they have a greatly sharpened ability to judge the speed of things, and the spatial aspect of them.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=Flawless Aim]*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Repeater Shot][/color][/b]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Preparing multiple projectiles, the practitioner launches each of the projectiles at one or more targets. For each target beyond the first, the accuracy of each of the attacks is decreased, suffering a -1 Strength penalty for each additional target.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Arcing Shot][/color][/b]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
The practitioner can launch projectiles in arcs up and over most obstacles, being able to accurately hit a target that is behind obstructions as if they were in the open. The practitioner must still be able to locate their target by some other means to ensure the projectile will hit its target.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Bouncing Shot][/color][/b]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
The practitioner launches a projectile at a shallow angle, targeting the ground or a hard surface. The shallow angle of the shot causes the projectile to bounce off of the surface, moving at -1 Speed and striking with -1 Strength after the bounce.

*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Tracking][/color][/b]
D-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
After much training and study, the practitioner has learned how to read an opponent's movements and adjust their aim accordingly to compensate without penalty. This Discipline allows the practitioner to accurately hit moving targets, though sudden changes in the opponent's movements will still affect accuracy.
[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim - Javelineer][/color][/b]
C-Rank Taijutsu Stance
[Prerequisite:] Must have a polearm weapon to use, [Polearms]
This Stance has two positions to it, Resting and Active. To assume this Stance while Resting, the user need only to hold their polearm down at their side, their body and stance relaxed, but, importantly, their hand must be at least halfway down the shaft of the weapon, ideally two thirds down, with the hand holding the shaft in the reverse position. While Resting, the user is primed to enter the Active portion of this Stance at any time. To assume this Stance while Active, the user must square up their legs and hips, extending one out in front of them while simultaneously angling their polearm in an upwards angle with their arm raised and held backwards, primed to throw. These differences, Resting and Active, are merely transitory states meant to go from one to the other and back again as needed. While in this Stance, the distance which the user may throw their polearm is doubled.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Evasive Maneuvers][/color][/b]
C-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
The practitioner has learned how to accurately launch projectiles while moving through the flow of combat. This Discipline represents the practitioner's ability to accurately launch projectiles while moving at full Speed, while jumping, rolling, sliding off the ground, or while performing other basic combat movements.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Hidden Shot][/color][/b]
C-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
By launching two projectiles, one immediately after the other, the practitioner attempts to create a decoy for the second. The first projectile is often larger or of equal size, and the second projectile is slightly behind and below it, the second projectile hiding in the first projectile's shadow. This masks the second projectile and makes it more difficult for the opponent to completely avoid. Opponents with a Perception technique equal or higher in rank may be able to see both projectiles clearly within a reasonable distance, though they'll still have to properly defend against it.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Twisting Path][/color][/b]
C-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Preparing a projectile, the practitioner launches the weapon with a slight tailspin, causing the flight path of the weapon to warp as it travels. The practitioner uses this slight change in the projectile's trajectory to hit a variety of targets that could not be targeted by normal means. This can be used to hit a target that is hiding behind another person or object, particularly useful against opponents behind human shields.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Sweeping Shot][/color][/b]
C-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Momentarily crouching, the practitioner launches one or more projectiles in a low arc, the weapon(s) flying close to the ground before arcing up in a single direction when approaching the target. If the practitioner launches more than one projectile, their trajectories can cross over each other, making it difficult for the opponent to ascertain which projectile will rise up to strike them first.
*[b][color=blueviolet][Flawless Aim Style • Uncanny Shot][/color][/b]
B-Rank Taijutsu Discipline
After much training and study, the practitioner is able to launch projectiles from previously impossible positions. This Discipline represents the practitioner's ability to launch projectile attacks without any detriment to their aim regardless of the position of their body. This includes while contorting their body or making rapid adjustments such as dodging attacks or performing acrobatic maneuvers.[/spoiler][spoiler=Drunken Fist]Drunken Fist is a taijutsu style which, contrary to it's name, is not actually about fighting while inebriated. While it is certainly possible to, and in fact common place and even beneficial to, use this taijutsu style while under the influence of alcohol, the true method of of this style is to instead mimic the movements and mannerisms of one that is drunk. Doing so makes the user extremely unpredictable, mobile and able to take advantage of unorthodox movements and positions that other styles would be entirely incapable of even thinking of making use of.
Requirements: Perception & Deft Hands Concentrations
[spoiler=Drunken Fist Taijutsu][color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Afternoon Nap[/b][/color]
D-Rank Taijutsu Stance
An unorthodox and seemingly counterintuitive stance, the user enters this stance by simply laying down on the ground on their side, using one arm to prop their head up while bending one knee to be pointed upwards as if relaxing to take a nap. This stance, while unusual, is remarkably sturdy and meant for a ground based assault against unsuspecting foes and is also remarkably easy to assume at a moment's notice either at will or as a way to take advantage of being knocked off of one's feet. Assuming this stance makes the user's movements harder to follow and predict while also increasing the user's Speed by 3 and reducing their Strength by 3 for as long as they maintain this stance.
[color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Hooking the Carp[/b][/color]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
The user will wait for an opponent to come in close before suddenly lashing out with their legs. Using whichever leg is closest to the opponent, the user will hook their foot around the heel and ankle of their opponent's closest leg, holding it in place, while the other leg raises up to strike at the back or side of the knee of user's leg of choice, delivering a potentially crippling blow that can reduce the opponent's Speed for the remainder of the thread depending on the severity of the injury.
[color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Throw One Back[/b][/color]
D-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Prerequisite: Must have some form of alcohol to consume
The user takes their container of alcohol and brings it to their lips, tilting it upwards and taking a shot's worth of a drink. Imbibing alcohol like this increases the user's Endurance by 3 for 3 posts as the alcohol dulls the user's sense of pain, making them seem tougher than they actually are.
[color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Hold My Sake[/b][/color]
D-Rank Taijutsu Stance
The basic and default stance of all Drunken Fist, the user enters this stance by holding their arms out in front of them, one arm extended out further than the other while the opposite is kept closer and curled inwards towards the body with both hands further curled inwards, pinkie and ring fingers curled against their palms while the thumb, index and middle fingers are held out so as to mimic the gesture of holding a sake cup. Simultaneously, the user will sway and tilt from side to side and in circles in an erratic and unpredictable fashion while the legs are held in a position that seems counterintuitive, with one leg forward but both feet angled inwards. Assuming this stance makes the user's movements harder to follow and predict while also increasing the user's Speed by 2 and reducing their Strength by 2 for as long as they maintain this stance.
[color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Get Your Own Drink![/b][/color]

A variation of [color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Afternoon Nap[/b][/color], the user assumes this stance by laying flat on their back, arms and legs splayed, eyes closed and breathing heavily as if they were in a deep sleep. While in this stance, the user's senses, other than sight, are enhanced, giving them the uncanny ability to be aware of their surroundings despite their relaxed and seemingly nonchalant pose. Assuming this stance makes the user's movements harder to follow and predict while also increasing the user's Speed by 6 and reducing their Strength by 6 for as long as they maintain this stance.

While laying in the [color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Afternoon Nap[/b][/color] or [color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Don't Wake the Baby[/b][/color] stance, the user will roll, toss and turn in order to avoid attacks coming from the opponent, utilizing as little movement as possible to achieve this feat. This gives the appearance of the user miraculously dodging blows in their sleep with the reality being that the user is executing controlled, calculated movements to most efficiently dodge what is coming their way, whatever that may be.

[i]Prerequisite:[/i] Must have some form of liquid to consume
The user takes a drink of whatever liquid is available, but rather than swallowing they instead hold it in their mouth without bulging their cheeks. This can then be held indefinitely until the right moment. When that moment comes, the user will spit the liquid in their mouth into the opponent's face in a harsh spray, temporarily blinding the opponent as either some of the liquid gets in their eyes or the opponent reflexively closes their eyes against their will.
[color=#A94007][b]Drunken Fist • Limp as a Noodle[/b][/color]
B-Rank Taijutsu Maneuver
Despite the inherent simplicity of this Maneuver in concept, the actual execution of it is quite difficult and challenging to implement in the heat of combat. Using this Maneuver the user may go limp all at once, their body's musculature relaxing completely as they relinquish all semblance of remaining sturdy and upright. With enough practice this can be achieved at will, making it so that the user can "play dead" at a moment's notice, let their entire body weight fall all at once or otherwise suddenly relax. This Maneuver not only makes the user all the more unpredictable in their movements as they transition from one maneuver or stance to another but also lessens the impact of oncoming blows, reducing the Strength of such impacts by 5 as they make contact with the user.[/spoiler][/spoiler]

After the required hand seals, the user will make contact with someone triggering the Genjutsu. For the next 5 posts, the effected won't really have much of a feel for what's going on inside their body, everything feeling dull. Any kind of damage at all, in any amount, will break this genjutsu.
Savior

[spoiler=Warp Genjutsu]Focus
C-rank Warp Genjutsu
Doing a series of hand seals, the user will speak aloud mentioning in his speech an object. The target will feel an intense draw towards whatever the focus of the desire is. This draw will also cause a sort of tunnel vision in the target’s sight, causing a blurring of their peripherals and making it hard to focus on anything but the target.This lasts for up to 5 posts.
All That Glitters
C-Rank Warp Genjutsu
Prerequisite: Kinton Release
The user performs the handseals and causes one or more pieces of gold to make a sound (IE toss coins, tap a mass of gold, etc.) Anyone who hears the chime of gold is caught within this genjutsu. Upon activating, any gold within the area appears to glitter and shine more brilliantly, standing out more, becoming more appealing to the eye and overall more distracting. Additionally, this genjutsu makes individuals caught in it feel more covetous of gold, to the point where an individual may stop whatever they're doing to collect as much of it as they can. This genjutsu lasts for 4 posts.
Touch of God
B-rank Warp Genjutsu
The user will channel chakra to perform this technique, then reach to touch a person. The contact will initiate this genjutsu, causing any pain they’re experiencing to begin to subside over the course of 5 posts and they will see any wounds they have slowly start to close (though they won’t actually). On the 5th post before the genjutsu ends, all their wounds will appear to rip back open and the pain will quickly return to them.[/spoiler]

[center][color=#7A52A3][b][big]History[/big][/b][/color][/center][spoiler=Historical Accounts]The life of Shiun Kinoko began the way it did for most Kinoko for many generations. She was born in a tiny, isolated village in the north of what was once the Land of Plains and Sea and spent the first few years of her life doing what all infants do - growing, being taken care of. It wasn't until sometime between her fourth and fifth birthday that something would happen that would reshape her entire future and give her a formative experience that would alter the entire course of her life:
Aimi Kaguya united the Kinoko.
While she was alive during this historical time, she scarecely remembers the details of the entire affair. She recalls only that, one day, word was brought to her village of a man that was bringing all of the Kinoko together for a purpose she did not understand. When her slice of the Kinoko clan met up with the others it was close to the end of this initial unification campaign, and atop the shoulders of an older clan member she saw their savior for the first and only time. The encounter could hardly be called one at all, Aimi Kaguya standing in the middle of a throng of Kinoko and speaking to them all collectively. About what she could not have understood then and does not remember now, but she remembers his pale skin, his golden hair, how different he looked compared to all of them, and the promise of peace with their aggressive neighbors at last. She remembers meeting his eyes for a moment before he looked away to someone else. She remembered asking one of her elders who he was and what he was doing there, being told that the man was a Ninja from a far off land and that he was there to bring them together and teach them the ways of chakra so that they could defend themselves.
Then Aimi Kaguya was gone from her life, never to be seen again, but his influence remained. Though she never experienced it first hand the efforts of Aimi Kaguya during the war that engulfed the world saw an unprecedented time of prosperity for her people as their talents were utilized to help further unite others. She grew up hearing stories of Aimi Kaguya's conquests and how he brought more people under his wing to make everyone else stronger. She gained an idea during this time of what it meant to be a Ninja - powerful, benevolent, a uniter of people under a common cause, a seemingly unstoppable force of nature personified in a career, and she wanted nothing more than to be one, too.
How devastated Shiun was when word of his death reached her people. There was a time of mourning among the Kinoko as a whole as their unifier and savior passed from this world in some distant land. Being the first clan of people that Aimi Kaguya brought together, the loss was especially hard for them. Even more devastating was it to learn that the country he had formed, once the Land of Plain and Sea turned Gold Country, was conquered and rechristened the Heart Empire. To Shiun this felt like the death of her idol all over again, the erasure of what he had fought for. As time passed and word traveled these feelings were only compounded when she learned that their conquerors were samurai and not Ninja!
With time the pain passed and as Shiun grew she become resolute to emulate her perceived idol to the best of her ability. Her decision to become a samurai for the Heart Empire came around the age of eight when she learned through the grapevine that the samurai were not only accepting locals as new recruits but that they were offering to teach the arts of ninjutsu to those who were interested as well as their training as samurai! As the Kinoko are encouraged to travel the world and interact with others while still young it took little convincing of her elders to gain their blessing to journey to Xincha and join the Doushikai academy, joining a caravan that would take her there eventually.
Once in Xincha she was quick to join the academy and, once in, her illusions on what it would be like were shattered. No matter what thoughts she had imagined on what training would be like and how similar it might have been for her idol, the reality was nothing like what was in her mind. This division between expectation and reality would be the start of her Imposter Syndrome developing. Never the less, she generally did well at the academy, excelling most in her potential at genjutsu but showing decent potential at just about everything and earning the favor of some of her teachers, even if she inwardly did not feel she deserved such praise. By the time she worked her way through the Doushikai Academy and was ready to be deployed she was 11 years old and had been preemptively selected for an exchange program that would see her sent out and trained along with other samurai and, excitingly for Shiun, ninja from other lands![/spoiler][hr]
