Head Salute

rank

E-Ranked Taijutsu

chakra

1

appearance

Whenever presented within a situation in which the assailant is either standing motionless or performing a straightforward attack within close proximity of the user, the user remains in place whilst awaiting for the incoming attack with their knees bent; which additionally instills the illusion that the user is not offering any sort of resistance thus easily coercing the opponent to come closer and spring the trap. Immediately upon whenever the aggressor is within reach, the user straightens their legs therefore giving an headbutt from down below. Upon succession, the attacker experiences trauma on the jaw, as well as suffer from whiplash from having their head knocked backwards.

skill

Defensive technique which causes trauma to be inflicted upon successful execution; giving a penalty of -1 Speed and - 1 Reflex for two of the opponent's posts.

Kansoku Gosa no Jutsu

English name

Observational Error Technique

rank

D-Ranked Genjutsu

chakra

6

appearance

The technique target's the victim's visual perception of the world after having formed the necessary hand-seals (Dragon -> Boar -> Bird -> Horse), the target will then experience double vision for a few seconds and the vision will eventually regroup back into one and hence activating the actual effect of the technique. The target's "new" vision is slightly wronged, where they perceive things between 25-75 centimeters off from the actual location of the object or person. The victim of the genjutsu is much more likely to miss his attacks due to the slightly altered perception, and will usually aim at empty air instead of his actual target. The victim of the genjutsu is also much more likely to get hit as they will see someone aiming away from the face instead of right at them.

This technique is quite obviously a genjutsu and thus most opponents will realize and use Kai to dispel it, hence this technique is much more useful to only use once in order to get an advantage with a potential free hit should the opponent not figure out how to deal with the technique.

skill

Offensive genjutsu which sharply reduces the target's accuracy giving a -2 penalty to their reflex stat; lasts for two posts lest it be countered with Kai.

Karabakuhatsu no Jutsu

english name

Color Explosion Technique

rank

D-Ranked Genjutsu

chakra

6

appearance

The technique is a visual genjutsu that is designed to mess with the target's vision after having done the initial hand-seals (Monkey -> Bird -> Ram), the target is greeted with an explosion of (a huge amount of) colors right in front of their own eyes. The colors act like virtual paint, sticking to the target's vision no matter what the target does throughout the whole time that he/she is under the effect of the genjutsu; for example, the colors will not dissipate upon closing one's eyes, but will do so with the traditional use of Kai or pain. The colors are ever changing and "exploding" over the duration of the technique which in turn causes major straining in the target's eyes. Thus when the technique has ended, the target will need some time to regain full function of their vision.

The technique is not designed to be subtle, but rather a more in-your-face technique which the victim has to deal with. The target retains full control of their senses and actions as it is only their vision that is messed with. The technique has a reduced effect on a colorblind person due to limited color perceived by said person, and will not work whatsoever against an individual whom had been blinded from birth as said person had never perceived any color in his/her whole life.

skill

Offensive genjutsu which grants a penalty of -5 to reflex for a duration of one post.

Kyotōryū

English name

Swordless Style

rank

E-S Ranked Taijutsu

chakra

N/A

appearance

Kyotōryū, literally meaning swordless style, is an art developed by Sunėkuaizu Kiryuu, that integrates the aspect of turning oneself into a sword unto the life of it's practitioners; whom all dedicate themselves into researching every form of a blade and thus develop theories as to how one may best defend against them. As a result of their devotion, Kyotōryū further evolved into an art which specialized in the utter destruction of all matter of blades through bare fists alone. The developed techniques which all collectively constitute Kyotōryū all consist of shattering an opponent's weapon or further improve the practitioner's defense against sabers; hence making this style incapable of fully utilizing it's prowess against non-armed opponents. The general consensus of outsiders is that the style exclusively relies upon the user's strength in his ability to effectively perform all necessary techniques of Kyotōryū, however that is far from the truth, as all techniques were developed with the concept of effortlessly obliterating bladed weapons rather than using brute force to do so. This feat was achieved through collected knowledge on every aspect of a blade and thus being able to determine the weakest part of the weapon, which in turn results in practitioner's, no matter how weak or frail, being capable of fully utilizing the art to it's full potential.

However, as a result of their practice, all users are incapable of performing any sort of action with a blade without having it crumbling in their hands one way or another; and thus incapable of having kenjutsu as one of their specialties. Even if by chance the user attains a blade which he cannot break due to his current ineptitude of destroying such a material, due to the unique handling of Kyotōryū, results the practitioner in fumbling the weapon constantly and thus making it an impossible feat to use it within and outside of combat. This particular technique is required in order to use any associated Kyotōryū techniques and it's ranking corresponds to which rank of techniques the practitioner may use; hence symbolizing their devotion and knowledge of the art. As a side note, most techniques are named after plants.

Kyotōryū : Igagoyō Sutansu

English name

Swordless Style : Bristlecone Stance

rank

E-Rank Taijutsu

chakra

1

appearance

Igagoyō is one of the most basic stances of the Kyotōryū style and thus, due to it's simplistic nature and it's augmentative quality, is often used in conjunction with the vast majority of Kyotōryū techniques. In it's barest essence, the stance serves to better assess the opponent's next move whilst eliminating any indication of the user's next move, which in turn improves the chance of catching the opponent off guard and allow the user to effortlessly get into position to perform one of the aforementioned techniques.

The vast majority of people, whether shinobi or not, are unaware of the subtleties associated with the stance and thus are often found surprised having met the user close in the distance between themselves and the opponent at an opportune moment. The relaxed and assumed unguarded pose inadvertently lowers the opponent's guard which then coerces them into attacking the user, using this as bait, the practitioner quickly determines the opponent's next move and respond with a countering technique. The aforementioned subtleties consists of slightly bent knees, and stiffened joints allow the user to dash in any direction at full speed without warning; whether to close in the distance, or to run away from an incoming strike. Temporarily boosts reflex stat by two points during the duration of the stance; loses effect immediately upon leaving the stance whether to attack or avoid a strike.

Kyotōryū : Kiku

English name

Swordless Style : Chrysanthemum

rank

E-S Ranked Taijutsu

chakra

1/4/7/10/13/16

appearance

As one of many sword breaking techniques within the Kyotōryū style, Kiku was developed in order to effectively destroy an armed assailant's saber using a unique method. After having closed the gap between themselves and the opponent, the practitioner aims to place the blade between their back and arms; essentially locking the blade into place between the created divide. Upon succession, the user pushes their arms forward and snaps the blade into three pieces. Due to the tightening imposed between the gap, the assailant is unable to remove their weapon lest their strength stat is superior to that of the user. The rank of this technique determines which weapons may be destroyed.

Kyotōryū : Ugoki Nanba no Jutsu 

English name

Swordless Style : Nanba Movement Technique

rank

E-Ranked Taijutsu

chakra

Passive

appearance

The emphasis of the technique lies within modifying the method in which the user moves their feet, as it had been proven that the conventional method in which the vast populace practices is quite inefficient and thus bringing birth to this technique in few martial art styles. The usual method causes people to essentially fall forward whilst walking or running forward, however, the fall is interrupted due to being stopped by having the back foot becoming the lead foot and thus catching the individual before such a thing occurs. Due to this, the foot and knees are constantly strained with each and every step and thus expending energy unnecessarily. Not only that, but the normal method of movement also unnecessarily causes the hips to rotate and the arms to swing inversely or along to the lead foot.

Nanba movements removes all of these unnecessary motions thus significantly lessening the stress placed on the leg. Due to the nature of the modification, sound caused by movement is muffled lest stepping unto an object; such as a branch. Whilst not apparent at first, the user will expend much less energy whilst moving and hence will typically outlast non-users in long distance running. Whilst understanding the basic concept of the technique is enough to replicate it, it is tremendously difficult to do so as it goes against how one naturally moves their bodies; hence requiring adequate amount of time before being able to replicate it, especially without being conscious of how they move and thus slowed down significantly. This technique is treated as a passive once acquired.

skill

Supplementary taijutsu skill which is a refined form of movement which additionally muffles the user's steps; user does not get fatigued from running.

Kyotōryū : Sakeru no Jutsu

English name

Swordless Style : Side Step Technique

rank

D-Ranked Taijutsu

chakra

6

appearance

Whenever matched up against an opponent whom charges forward toward the user with a, more-or-less, straightforward attack, the user promptly shifts the position of his feet inward to one another along with bending their knees slightly whilst they await for the opponent to come within their reach. Upon reaching the opportune distance between both the user and the assailant, the user slides their feet correspondingly with one foot going outside of the aggressor's lead foot and the other goes right on through with the motion. Should the technique be properly executed, which includes avoiding being hit during its execution, the user would find themselves behind the opponent thus allowing them one of two options; they may either slide their foot whilst pushing the back or the neck of the assailant and thus cause them to hurl toward the ground, or the user may simply launch an attack at their blindside.

skill

Promptly shifts feet after having coerced the opponent to attack, allowing the user to quickly get behind the opponent to either hurl them against the ground or attack at their blind side.

Kyotōryū : Anpurōshia

English name

Swordless Style : Ambrosia

rank

C

chakra

7

appearance

One of the few striking techniques of the Kyotōryū style, designed to effectively subdue an individual by performing a short series of actions which will, when performed successfully, leave the person breathless as well as on the ground. The user performs three moves in rapid succession: a knee strike to the abdomen, another knee strike to the head once grasped within the user's clutches and brought into the knee, and finally an elbow slamming down unto their back. These three moves are made quickly and with fluidly, which implies that the first strike may be defended against, though if successfully landed, the opponent will have no chance defending against the short surge of movements following suite. The reason behind the difficulty of defending against the other two should the first strike hit, is that the knee-strike to the abdomen results in temporary paralysis of the diaphragm, which in layman's terms mean that it would knock the breath out of the opponent and thus causing him to double-over alongside have difficulty breathing. The last strike slams the opponent into the ground with great force.

skill

Offensive taijutsu technique which consists of three flowing strikes whom aim to disable an opponent momentarily. Inflicts stun for one post if causes 5 damage or more.
