Hello hello!
As a beginning standard per normal training routine, please take a brief moment to explain to me what you know of the Snake Summoning and its overall functionality in-verse. What are their strengths, and what are their weaknesses?

Oy!
Yes ma'am. I'm not sure what snakes weaknesses and strengths are, to be honest. However, comparable to the three sannin summons I know they are the more fast and agile of the trio. Their functionality is a great deal of utilizing sneak attacks, as we've seen from them coming from Orochimaru's sleeve. They can carry a lot of destructive force as well such as Manda and Manda 2 being able to shred part buildings during the invasion of Konoha. They can act as disposable shield as well as catalyst for techniques similar to Oral Rebirth. They're also very versatile in the regard that I think they are the only summon to have been shown holding things for their masters. Such as Orochimaru sword. I believe it was Kusanagi. That being said, they do the same thing in the RP I believe. Modes tied to this contract offer unique speed buffs, maybe even shedding of skin that may have been inflicted by residual damage. They are able to hold things in their stomachs and regurgitate them for later use. They have heightened smell and hearing, most of them since most snakes are either blind or close to blind, etc. etc. I think that is about all I know.

A fair assessment, but do keep in mind that while canonically and potentially even descriptively snakes operate within certain enhancements of benefits, unless a technique within the game itself contributes to the effects that you describe (such as enhanced speed, senses, holding things in stomach, etc) these are otherwise mostly fluff details. But while generally "fluff," that does not make them inherently irrelevant. Even if a canon technique does not cover some of these effects that you've described, that does not rule out the possibility of customs that may or may not have been touched upon, so keep it in mind if you decide to get more avidly involved in the process of using them on a creative level.
Alright, with that out of the way, we'll go ahead and start by approaching the summonable contracts themselves before proceeding onto the Ninjutsu associated to the contract. We'll operate in pairs of 3 techniques per post, and for each one I would like for you to give a brief descriptive assessment in your own words of the technique and its intended use, as well any questions you may have pertaining to said technique, if you have any.
