After careful consideration and after having the contract closed for only Scorps and myself, we have come to the conclusion that we should let more people sign the contract. Since it's not easy to pick good candidates fairly we decided to make a tournament and the best ranked will get to sign the contract. As you can tell, I will host the tournament to make it easier for Scorps, so everything you have to ask regarding the tournament should be directed at me. I have no idea how many people are really interested so I can't say anything about the format of the tournament or the amount of signers yet. Depending on the amount of applications I will create brackets and you will be notified.

Before you start applying you need to read this carefully and by applying you agree to the terms and acknowledge that you've read them.

1) It is preferred that you have 1 summoning slot open. This way you don't need to go through the trouble of choosing which contract to drop.
2) In case you do have 2 contracts you have to drop one contract. This is done by notifying the contract holder and asking him to remove you from the contract before any training is started.
3) In case you are dropping a canon contract then there are no additional steps necessary.
4) Everyone can apply (as long as you fit the summoning rules), both young and old, unexperienced or experienced. This is an all-out tournament and the goal is to determine the very best.
5) Make sure you read the rules. If you don't have a contract you have to be at least of Jounin rank. In case you have one and want to drop it in favor of Cranes then you need to be at least of Jounin rank. In case you already have 1 or even 2 summoning contracts you need to be at least of Kage rank.

Now for the application form:

Crane Summoning Contract

Summoning Animal: Crane ო
Scroll Owner: Scorps
Other Users who have signed contract: McRazor
Summoning Boss if existing: Sono Aoi Keimei
Other Summoning Animals tied to contract: Grus, Sarus

Cranes are a family of large, long-legged and long-necked birds in the order Gruiformes. There are fifteen species of crane in four genera.

The cranes are very large birds, including the world's tallest flying bird. They are long-legged and long-necked birds with streamlined bodies and large rounded wings. The males and females do not vary in external appearance, but on average males tend to be slightly larger than females. Most species of crane have some areas of bare skin on the face; the only two exceptions are the Blue and Demoiselle Cranes. This skin is used in communication with other cranes, and can be expanded by contracting and relaxing muscles, and change the intensity of color. Feathers on the head can be moved and erected in the Blue, Wattled and Demoiselle Cranes for signaling as well. Also important to communication is the position and length of the trachea.

The cranes' beauty and their spectacular mating dances have made them highly symbolic birds in many cultures with records dating back to ancient times. Crane mythology is widely spread and most ancient cultures had their own belief about them. They were thought to be holy birds and grant luck.

1)
Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Rank: A-Rank
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 30
Damage: N/a
Description: A crane performs its loud trumpet call which triggers a very powerful illusion where the opponent sees the crane perform the trumpet call as a call for aid in the battle. Suddenly a huge number of cranes, from the same species, attack the opponent from all sides, which start poking his body with their beaks, ultimately poking his eyes out. If the opponent doesn't free himself before his eyes get poked out, which happens after 3-4 seconds, the genjutsu will actually trick his mind into going blind, which will stay for one turn, until his brain realizes that his eyes are sending information and until the brain starts to process it again.
Note: Must have signed the Crane Summoning Contract
Note: Can only be performed by a Crane, after being summoned to the battle
Note: Usable only once per battle

Taught to
1) Scorps





Type: Offensive/Defensive
Rank: S-Rank
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description:
The Blue Dawn is a big blue crane, with red eyes and a orange long beak, with a wing spam of 15 meters. Calm, composed and with a naturally leadership demeanor, when she is on the ground, standing on her two legs, she is about 3 meters tall. Being the Matriarch of the Cranes, she stands as their leader. Capable of communicating with his summoner either through speech or through a special mind link. Her powers are unrivaled as are her flying grace and speed while also being a master manipulator of Water. Unable to use Water jutsu themselves, she can, however, use 3 water based abilities which more than make up for that small short coming.

Abilities:
-She is capable of exhaling a strong, wide, S-Rank, short to long range, dense stream of Water, which can be used as a water source for the users techniques
-She can materialize water from the atmosphere around her to create a spherical, transparent S-Rank Water Shield around her, protecting her and her summoner
-She can sense any water molecule in the field, up to Long Range
-Can be summoned anywhere between short to mid range of the summoner

Restrictions:
-Can only be summoned once
-Can stay on the field for a max of 4 turns
-Using the Water Stream and the Water Shield count towards the users move count


Type: Supplementary
Rank: B-Rank
Range: Short
Chakra: 20
Damage: N/A
Description:
Grus is the embodiment of a Crane. A beautiful, elegant, grey and white bird with beautiful red beak and green eyes. He's not the biggest Crane, with a wingspan of about 8 meters and the body in proportion to it but he has a strong build, capable of flight with 2 humans on his back with no apparent effort. Capable of speech and possessing an acute intellect, he acts as a support summon to help the user in any way he can, making up for the fact that, apart from the Crane Arts, he can't use Ninjutsu. When in flight he is both fast and graceful, possessing an unsettling agility, unrivaled amongst all the cranes and most birds.

Note: Can only be taught by Scorps and requires the user to have the Crane Contract and its Tattoo.


Type: Supplementary
Rank: S-Rank
Range: Short
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: Sarus is considered one of the fastest flying birds. It's not massive in size which grants its flying speed. With a wingspan of 6m, it can easily carry the user on its back. It is conspicuous and iconic and it's easily distinguished amongst the other cranes because of its red colored head that spreads to its neck, therefore the name, Redneck. The red head and neck aren't actually feathered, but rather bare flesh. Sarus is known for its loud trumpeting calls. These calls are, as in other cranes, produced by the elongated trachea that form coils within the sternal region. His calls are quite loud and can be quite unsettling to hear. His actions can be easily merged with the users own as Sarus, same as the other cranes, has the ability to easily communicate with its owner through a special mindlink or through speech. The main ability of Sarus, however, is its mastery over the wind element. Though it's considered a master it doesn't have the ability to perform all of the wind jutsus that the user knows, but rather a special ability, known only to Sarus. It can create a very thick atmosphere around a specific point, just inches thick but enough to disperse any lighting jutsu that tries to pass through it. It can form the thickening of the air in various of shapes, be it a sphere around the user or a shield-like formation in front of him (or to his sides, etc.). The thickening effects the short area around the thickening point. The process works by simply compressing the desired field of air and infusing it with its own chakra, in a way that cancels out lightning. This ability counts as 1 jutsu that the user is allowed to perform per turn.
Note: Wind ability counts as an S rank wind technique from one of the users 3 techniques per turn
Note: Must have signed the Crane Summoning contract
Note: Can only be summoned once and stays on the field only 4 turns


Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Rank: S-Rank
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description:
This technique is the ultimate showcase of the Cranes and their ancestry skills. The crane summon inhales and focuses chakra into its throat. As it exhales, it produces a loud, high screech that travels at the speed of sound. The screech leaves any enemy in the field momentarily deaf while disturbing their inner ear and equilibrium, making them stumble and lose balance, unable to move correctly or coordinated. The screech however, has additional effects, specially on enemy summons. Upon hearing the painful sound, the enemy summons immediately disperse back into their "homelands". This technique can also be used to release the summoner from genjutsu or mind manipulation techniques when used by a Crane Summon, by sheer shock the screech produces in the user's hearing.

Abilities:
-Deafens the enemies for 3 turns
-Severely decreases the enemies balance and equilibrium for 2 turns
-Dispels any summon on field
-Releases the user from Genjutsu up to S-Rank (including MS related Genjutsu)

Restrictions:
-While usable by every crane summon, each crane summon can only use it once per battle

This thread will be open until Friday, 8th of August, 22.00 my time, which is GMT+1. You can apply until then and afterwards the thread will be closed for me to review the apps, check eligibility and prepare the tournament format, compile the battle rules, etc. The battles should start on Monday.

EDIT: One small note I forgot to add. Once the applications are over, I will create the bracket using and the battles will be randomly determined.

Alright, it's a few hours early but for the last few days there were no applications and the number of applicants was just right. These are the brackets and the fight pairs. I shuffled them 10 times to make sure it's completely random. Now, I was thinking about what kind of limitations I want to put on the tourney and I figured that since I'm looking for the most skillful user I should ban custom fighting styles, custom jutsus, custom elements and custom clan abilities. This means that you can use the basic 5 elements, your KG and the regular nin, tai, gen, ken and fuuin if you possess it. On top of that, I'll allow you to use your custom summoning contracts.

You must be registered for see images

The person on top of the bracket will be the one to create the thread and it should be named like this, [CCSCT] Fighter 1 vs Fighter 2 - Round 1. Once you create the thread post a link to the biography you're using and be careful when choosing because you have to stick with that biography until the end of the tournament. The person on top of the bracket also gets the first move but can choose to give the opponent the opening move if he so desires. These are the rules:

Battle Rules
-Rei's R&R
-Killing and Stealing: Allowed
-CJs of any kind (except custom summons): Not Allowed
-You can use the Basic 5 elements, your Kekkei Genkai, Taijutsu, Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, Kenjutsu, Fuuinjutsu (if you learned the ability) and your custom summoning contracts
-Range: Medium range (10 meters away)
-Terrain: Plain battlefield with no water source
-Each fight needs to finish in 7 days, upon which they'll be closed and graded by me or an other sensei if I ask for help
-Arguments are to be done exclusively through VM and issues are to be reported in the . Sensei opinions can only be asked twice per match, with the 3rd time pertaining to a final decisive judging. If a member needs to ask for a senseis input, he/she must do so through the designated thread and not directly to the sensei. Following the template and the rules of the thread is essential
-If a participant doesn't reply for more than 3 complete days, his opponent wins the match by default

The battles are supposed to be made in the , if that was unclear until now. Once you create the thread you're responsible for notifying your opponent and proving the link to the battle thread. If you create the thread and fail to do so by trying to claim the 3 day to post rule then you will be the one that loses the battle automatically.

Good luck to everybody.

2 more battles finished with the opponent not responding in the 72 hours time frame so that makes 6. This means that I will cancel the tourney because no skill was involved in winning automatically. I'll look for alternative ways of finding signers for the Crane contract. Sorry.
