"A couple of questions before we begin. What is steel release? There are two elements that make up steel, what are they and how did you come to that conclusion, and why do you want to learn steel release, and how do you plan on using it?"

"A couple of questions before we begin. What is steel release? There are two elements that make up steel, what are they and how did you come to that conclusion, and why do you want to learn steel release, and how do you plan on using it?"

"Well, Steel Release is an Element that can only be acquired by certain Iwagakure Shinobi that have had the KG passed down through their blood line - I am one of those lucky Iwagakure Shinobi to be able to have access to this element - Steel is a metal, it's also a very a widely used metal as shown here"

Ed pulls up his right sleeve to show the Steel Gauntlet he is wearing

"Steel is used a lot to create weapons, structures and objects and is much stronger than Iron, because Steel is an Iron Alloy. It is weak to lightning, lightning has the ability to be able to cut through hard objects easily - though it can be used against opponents because Steel is a conductive metal. Steel is strong against Water because of it's great density it can easily repel water attacks and the same for Earth because it's much harder and can break through the stuff if enough force is applied."

Ed uses his chakra to make a small rock shoot out from the ground and he catches it with one hand, he then adds fire chakra to it and throws it at a tree, the rock bursts into flames and hits the tree, burning it slightly

"The element of Earth and Fire make up steel and you need to have a good knowledge of the two to be able to create it, Earth has a lot of different elements that create it, super heating it allows you to 'smelt' it in a way to create a much harder substance and if you gathered all the metal that is hidden in the earth it is possible - fire also gives off Carbon, carbon is used to alloy Iron into Steel."

"I Plan on using Steel Release to defeat Water and Earth users, there are a lot of people who prefer Water and Earth because of it's usability, Steel is strong against both huehuehue. It's also a good weapon, it allows me to make sharp or blunt tools and can create structures, so I can help the people - God, I sound like a politician."

You explained everything I expected.

Okay so, do you plan to keep your steel bio for a long while, or are you going to drop? I want to know, if it is a yes. I will teach you my steel customs for free.

Another question, when we start going though the techniques, what do you prefer template, or no template?

--

Now, all I want you to do is try and get your steel chakra in your hand by mixing the two elements, fire and earth. Use detail while explaining, what does the steel chakra make you feel, etc...

I don't know too be honest, I fell in love with FMAB and so made an Edward Elric bio - I don't have any bio in mind to swap him with xD, just trying to find my perfect bios xD

No Template please.

--

I focus my chakra and put my hands close to each other, molding earth to begin with and channeling it through my right arm, I then do the same but in the opposite arm and with the fire element, mixing the two together in the gap between my hands and creating a new chakra - Steel. I feel a a greater structure and a new strength, stronger than what I felt when molding earth chakra - this new substance could be refined and shaped just like earth, but it was a lot harder to do so because of this strength it carried.

Well done, very, well done. I expected nothing less.

So; will show you both anyway.

So idea is simple, I will post the techniques and I will ask you to analyse them for me, for example: how to use it in battle, how to counter it, what is good about this technique (pros), what is bad about it (cons), what you like about it and etc. I think you pretty much get what I mean. The "How to perform" - part is a bit, not needed for, but you are more than welcome to perform it, if you don't understand the technique. It's better if we focus on the important things, like actually analysing the whole technique and knowing how to use it in a fight. Only filling the template is boring and sometimes not fun. I want to make this training as enjoyable as I can, I know templates can be boring and dull at times.

Something below are basic guidelines to use:

Example of points for every technique
+ How to be used in a battle
+ How to be countered in a battle
+ Some advantages and disadvantages
+ Your personal opinion about the technique

Do you have any questions about method?

Or you can chose to use this template:

PHP:
[CODE][B]One/three advantages:[/B]
[LIST]
[*]1. 
[*]2.
[*]3.
[*]
[/LIST]
[B]One/three disadvantages:[/B]
[LIST]
[*]1. 
[*]2.
[*]3.
[*]
[/LIST]
[B]How you would use it in battle:[/B]
[B]How you would counter it:[/B]
[B]How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):[/B][/CODE]
Your choice. ^^

OOC : Yeah I don't like templates, I like to RP and train if that's ok - template makes boundaries. Everything seems aight to me, lets go! You should keep that Monkey Avatar forever.

Alright then.

(Kōton no Jutsu) Steel Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary

Description: Allows the user to, through the use of hand gestures, produce small objects, pillars, weapons, etc, made of black steel, from their body or from the earth. The constructs are as hard as a normal kunai and swords and can be thrown at a target physically.

What can you tell me about this technique?

It's a simple Steel Release technique, but a useful one and one that opens opportunities for more complex techniques. It's great for creating blades or close combat weapons if I do not have any, I might need one for a technique later on - at least I don't have to carry a sword around, I just need this technique hehe

Edward focuses on his steel chakra after molding the two others that make it before hand, he channels the chakra into his gauntlet, manipulating the steel to stretch out above the wrist into a long sharp object. It was now a blade attached to his gauntlet.

Good work.

(Kōton: Toami) Steel Release: Fish Net
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After 1 handseal (Bird), the user is able to produce a black steel net from his/her hands, which can be thrown towards the opponent to pin him to the ground.

Okay perform the single seal Bird hand seal, your steel chakra will produce a black steel net thing from your hands, use it on my clone that is near you, this technique is good since it can pin and trap them to the ground, and you can follow up with another attack, the range is a little iffy but then most battles are from mid-range.

Alright I got this.

Ed makes a single bird hand seal, this focuses his Steel chakra and he then holds out his hands in front of him, thing steel bars shoot out of either hand. Using shape manipulation the steel is connected together by multiple thin bars, more columns are create and rows that link them together - eventually the structure becomes a grid shape, it's also quite flexible, I throw it at a shadow clone with enough force to bash into the clone and pin them to the floor under the weight

It's a pretty cool technique, I could carry this net around haha! The only problem I find is that the opponent is going to see this coming, it's a big ass net. If you're really sneaky and clever you can make little traps in the midst of battle, maybe through the use of a shadow clone.

It is a nice technique.

(Kōton: Kase) Steel Release: Shackles
Rank: C
Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user does 2 handseals (Bird+Ram) focusing chakra beneath the opponent, shaping the ground into several (up to 5) shackles that shoot up to grab the enemy. The shackles are linked to chains that remain connected to the ground. Once they grab the opponent, the user can clap his hands, forcefully pulling the shackles and chains to the ground, effectively pinning the opponent to the ground, restrained by the steel chains.

Again, just perform the required seals. Start focusing your steel chakra below my clone; and by using shape manipulation on the said ground below create up to five black steel shackles that will grab hold of him and keep him in place, so if you chose to create five, two can on on his legs, two on his arms and one around his neck, but it's all up to the user. You can then clap your hands causing the shackles to pull back forcefully that are attached to chains and ceasing all movement in my clone, so you can use another attack similar in a way to the net.

You can then clap your hands causing the shackles to pull back forcefully that are attached to chains and ceasing all movement in my clone, so you can use another attack similar in a way to the net.
I perform the two hand seals Bird and Ram, focusing my steel chakra through the ground and beneath your clone. The ground shapes into 5 shackles, two of them take each wrist, another two each ankle and the last around it's neck. I make one more handseal and all the chains linked to the shackles retract into the ground - pinning the clone down onto the ground.

It's a very useful technique, the shackles can be used to trip an opponent too, grabbing their ankles which would be quicker than the hands because they are touching the ground - then making the chains tight and they will just fall from the quick stopping power. The only problem is the hand seals for this technique, the opponent will see this coming and makes it less surprising. Another problem is that the opponent won't be trapped for long, there are techniques that can get out of this quite easily like lightning. Though wouldn't lightning get conducted through the steel and electrocute the trapped opponent?

No, it would break the shackles.

(Kōton: Tama Ishuu) Steel Release: Bullet Swarm
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: After 2 handseals (Bird+Tiger), the user is able to shot out up to a dozen metal bullets from his/her body. They move as fast as arrows and can be shot in a radial manner or a focused manner, from any part of the body the user intends to.

Perform the two seals, start focusing your steel chakra all around your body, and use shape manipulation to turn the chakra into steel bullets, that you will shoot towards my clone, you can shoot up to 12, and you can shoot them all at once, or in a more focused movement, aiming for different body parts. Neat technique, range is great.

Neat technique, range is great.
After performing the two handseals Bird and Tiger, Ed focus' the steal chakra he has created through his body and into his right arm, manipulating it into steel and pointing at your clone. The Chakra becomes steel and fires from Ed's palm, 6 bullets in total scatter towards your clone and hits him, sending it flying back and making it disperse into a cloud of smoke.

That is really cool, I already love this technique. I like how you can choose from up to 12 bullets to being able to fire it one after another or all at once, you can move in an arc shaped fashion and fire one after another at the opponent. The Range is brilliant, and also the fact that you can shoot it from all around your body in a radial manner too makes it omnidirectional and very useful. I don't like the 2 hand seals that are needed with this jutsu - though if I practice with it more, I may be able to make it a specialty of mine.

Q_Q




Edward gathers a large amount of steel chakra and runs at your clone, whilst running he performs a single bird hand seal and produces a steel black net from his hands, he stops still and throws it at your clone. Right after throwing it, he jumps into the air and as he's jumping up he performs two more hand seals which consist of the bird and tiger - he points both arms out straight and fires 6 steel bullets from each hand which would go through the wholes in the net as it's bringing the clone down to the ground and pierce straight through the target. When Ed lands he slams his hand onto the ground and courses more chakra through it, bringing Earth Spikes up from underneath the target and skewering his torso.

"I think I did pretty well." Ed smirks brightly.

(Kōton: Toami) Steel Release: Fish Net
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After 1 handseal (Bird), the user is able to produce a black steel net from his/her hands, which can be thrown towards the opponent to pin him to the ground.

(Kōton: Tama Ishuu) Steel Release: Bullet Swarm
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: After 2 handseals (Bird+Tiger), the user is able to shot out up to a dozen metal bullets from his/her body. They move as fast as arrows and can be shot in a radial manner or a focused manner, from any part of the body the user intends to.

(Doton: Ganchūsō) - Earth Release: Stone Spikes
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: This technique lets the user create a few rock pillars that will protrude from the ground to skew the target. The rock pillars will even pass through obstacles to reach their target if these are less dense. The pillars/spikes can be done in any earthen surface, including other earth techniques of the user.

Well done, good.

(Kōton: Kasui Sanran) Steel Release: Spike Spawn
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: After 1 handseal (Horse), the user is able to make a great number of black steel spikes rise up from a point in the ground within range. These spikes are very sharp and may be as big long as 2 meters.

Okay with this one, perform the seal, this technique allows you to create a big number of steel spikes that rise from the ground, this technique of course will only go up to the range it says, which makes it limited, but the size of each spike is good, and the fact that this technique doesn't say how many a great number is, it could be anything.

(Sorry, been a way on 'holiday' :D )

Ed gathers his steel chakra and focuses through the ground after performing the Horse Hand seal, creating many spikes that rise up all angled at one position to form a cone as they rise up as a circle at first. The spikes come together and impale the shadow clone, the tips meeting inside the clone's torso and making it disperse as a cloud of smoke.

"jutsu seems limited with the medium range and the spikes coming together into one point, but actually it can be used as a shield rather than just an attack mechanism. It doesn't state how long the spikes can be and how many as you said sensei, you can make it rise up around you, to form together as a cone so that the point is above your head, forming a tent of steel around you to protect you from things, if you use enough spikes. Also, using the same method you can make little gaps between the spikes to see out of, or if you're trapping the opponent you can then shoot fire between them as like an oven or using the A-Rank Fire Pillars from underneath."
