Luffy with a big grin on his face without hesitation bit into his right thumb hard enough for a long streak of blood to pour out of it and run slightly down his finger he then signed his name in the designated area. He looked up at the two infront of him with a large grin.

What now?

Castiel must be very powerful to do such a thing XD



Upon seeing Castiel open the scroll, Alexander bites his left thumb in order to draw some blood. He then squeezes it tightly in order to draw enough blood so that he could sign his full name on the scroll. After doing so, he coated each individual finger tip with his blood, ending the ritual by placing his finger prints beneath his name.

It's an honor.

Alright first up are the two youngest of the bunch.

Due to already residing within the home of the Griffins, Castiel knew most of them were already probably watching or close by, besides the two youngest ones; he also knew that Akame was out messing around so without warning, Castiel wipes some blood on his tattoo and snaps his fingers together to summon the small griffin chick.

Say hello to the prince of the griffins; he is the youngest son of Hono; so similar to Hono, Akame is great with fire obviously not as strong as Hono but decent enough.

Decent enough? Please, Castiel.

None of that, meet the two new signers Alexander and Luffy.

I'll show you the other one after you have met up with this one. You don't need to fight this one, just tell him who you are.

Akame meaning Red eyes was given that name by his Dad, The Griffin King. He is a Griffin chick, he is about the same size as a bear cub. Due to the fact that he has no fur yet he is placed in jet black looking armor which is given to all baby Griffins.The armor protects him from projectiles.The armor is made of strong yet very light material still allowing Griffins to fly at fast speeds. He has extremely sharp talons that can be used to cut and tear into the opponent. Being the son of the Griffin King he has a natural affinity to fire and can shoot out small C-rank fireballs that move extremely fast due to their size. He has an extremely heightened sense of smell which allows him to pinpoint the enemy locations. He has been training with Mugen ever since Akame was born, due to the special bond they have developed a fighting style with each other making them the ultimate tag-team.
*Can only be taught by Mugen Ryukyu
* Fireball counts as 1/3 moves a turn
* Fireball is short-mid range

As the Griffin is summoned, Alexander is overwhelmed with a calm and happy state. He smiles wide upon seeing the cute animal standing before him. He bowed down in reaction towards him as Castiel mentioned his name and introduced us.

My name is Alexander, Alexander Akimichi. ^_^

Hello to the both of you.

Before you met the newest to the family and also the second youngest. I'll let you meet the other three elemental griffins.

Castiel signals Hono to go find the three; Belphegor, Amaymon & Lilith. Hono then goes and flies off to find the three, a moment goes by and Hono and the three come back and land on the ground.

So, Hono explained to us, you two are the new signers. What are your names, I'm Belphegor.

Hello, I'm Amaymon.

And, hello I'm Lilith.

Castiel watches as the three griffins introduce themselves.

I have no questions, I just want to note that all summons are nice and simple, I really love them right now! The only thing that I am saddened about is the restriction of 1x per battle. This will be a heavy burden in NW events to come.

__

Alexander bowed down once again as he was completely amazed out of this world upon seeing simply how large and marvelous the griffins were. He attention was drawn towards Lilith the most.

It is my pleasure to meet you all, it's going to be great fighting alongside all of you. ^_^

Alright. Good, now it is time to meet the newest of the new. Only Hono knows who it is, that is how new he is to the bunch. And now, I give you Toothless!

Castiel bits his thumb and wipes it on his tattoo located near his left hand and slams his hands on the ground to summon Toothless.

Toothless looks around to see Hono and the rest of the Griffins standing there in front of him.

Hello, sir. (directed at Hono)

Toothless, I would like you to meet the rest of the family, here we have Amaymon he is the earth Griffin.

Amaymon: Good day, young one.

Next we have Belphegor, the lightning Griffin.

Belphegor: Hmm, hello.

Up next we have Lilith, the wind Griffin.

Lilith: Toothless is it?

And finally we have the price and my own son, my blood son Akame.

Akame: ...Hi.

It is very nice to meet you all, I'm Toothless. I may look small but I have some hidden abilities.

Castiel looks over at Toothless and walks over to him and places his hand outwards allowing Toothless to move towards him if he wishes.

And, which Toothless does and moves his hand towards Castiel's flat palmed hand.

Ah good, Toothless would you like to meet Alexander and Luffy?

...Sure.

Castiel then walks back over to both Alexander and Luffy. And explains the following.

Okay, see what I did with Toothless just now? Put my hand out and wait for him to respond. It is completely up to him if he likes you or not. Toothless is young and deserves a lot of respect, he has a lot of hidden abilities. His saliva alone is something of wonders. Give it a shot. One at a time though.

Castiel watches and hopes for the best. Castiel walks over to Toothless and says very quietly.

Don't bite of their hands please.

6.
Type: Summoning
Rank: S
Range: Short
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: Toothless is young among the Griffin population. Yet his young age does not hinder his abilities in combat nor his personality or intelligence. Toothless is an intelligent Griffin capable of easily communicating with his summoner and his fellow Griffins. He boats a friendly personality with his dry humour, teasing, and playfulness. In his home Toothless is very popular with his friends and children. All appreciate his playful behaviour. In heated combat however Toothless allows his intelligence to take over and put him into a calm and collected state. Toothless boasts a large size with a wingspan of 8.5 meters. His feathers are nearly all black allowing him to easily blend in with dark surroundings such as caves and the night sky. In flight, he is incredibly graceful and can fly as fast as any Griffin regardless of size. As a mature Griffin Toothless is highly capable of manipulating his chakra like any other living being. Toothless is noted for his unique saliva and its properties when he infuses his chakra into it. His saliva offers both offensive and supplementary purposes to the summoner allowing them to access either of its abilities depending on the situation. The first use is the usage of the saliva as a powerful adhesive. Normally, water can take on a glue like state. However, this takes that to the next level. The adhesive properties of Toothless’s saliva make it almost an instant glue (similar to Water Style: Starch Syrup Capture Field but slightly different) when it connects with the target. The glue is incredibly powerful and makes it nearly impossible to break without the use of a high ranked internal technique (S-rank raw chakra based technique, or A-rank elemental technique). In this state his saliva also has a burning property to it, this burning is produced by the very small amount of fire that resides within his mouth and due to that, the fire and his saliva merge together when Toothless needs it. While the glue hardens quickly it will also burn the target causing 2nd degree burns on contact causing immense pain. Toothless’ saliva can also take on a supplementary use as well allowing him to heal his summoner when he covers the summoner’s wounds in the saliva. The saliva is not an accurate or precise heal. It will simply stop the bleeding of surface wounds, anything deeper than that the saliva will have no effect on. It cannot repair severed limbs or anything of that degree. Simply it can stop any immediate danger and allow the summoner to fight on longer. Toothless creates this supplementary saliva by dividing the bad types of bacteria from the good ones, so he doesn't harm the user. Toothless’s final ability is one that allows him to change the colour of his black feathers to anything he wishes allowing him a potent camouflage which takes advantage of his surroundings. This is incredibly versatile and makes it so anyone outside of short range of Toothless will have great difficulty in seeing him, if one is to pay attention though, they will be able to see the ripples that Toothless will cause though the use of movement.
Notes:
- Can only be summoned once.
- Will remain on the field for a maximum of four turns.
- Toothless’s saliva ability counts as two different abilities – an offensive burning glue or a supplementary healing technique. Both are S-Rank techniques. Both techniques have a mid-range reach. Each technique can be used twice.
- The camouflage technique is an A-Rank technique. Lasts for two turns unless he uses another one of his abilities.
- The fire within Toothless' mouth cannot be used for attacks on its own, it can only be used in conjunction with the saliva.
- Each one of Toothless abilities count as a move.
- Must have signed the Griffin contract

After having Luffy approach Toothless, Alexander did the same as he casually walked towards him and looked directly at him with a smile on his face. He then stopped a few inches away from him as his smile stretched even more as he extended his left arm out with an palm palm. He then raised his hand near his head level and awaited a response.

OOC: No questions on the technique, I am just blown away about the abilities of it!

And with that we are done. Thank you all, it is time to take us back now. We'll get one of the Griffins to take us all back now.

Castiel, Alexander and Luffy hop on Belphegor and they all fly back to the agreed upon location, and thus they all go their own ways.

Use the contract well, and there may be a new signer soon, very soon. Until then farewell.

OOC: Sorry for the absurd time it took to reply. The contract is completely usable by both of you now, you both have permission to submit Griffin ninjutsu if you want (they'll take up your custom slots, so if you are okay with that go right ahead) - as for the animals themselves, I'll make a group and we can discuss those.

Upon receiving his instructions from Castiel, Shayde arrived at the designated location and simply waited on his Sensei's arrival. He was to sign his second Summoning Contract for the mythical chimeric beasts, the Griffins. As he waited on Cas' arrival he wondered to himself if such beasts existed, never mind how they came about. Then again, he was part of a world where amazing creatures existed, such as the 3 Headed Snake that ravaged Konoha several years ago, or tales of a canine with the unique ability to multiply when struck by attacks with physical force. Suddenly half-lion, half-eagle hybrids seemed right at home... As Shayde stood alone, he let his mind wander, wondering what the creatures would look like. Would they be majestic? Overbearing? Graceful? Menacing? Shayde had no idea, but he couldn't wait to meet them all.

As some messed up shit was forming in his head, Shayde suddenly heard a noise, as though someone was approaching. But he couldn't determine the direction or distance of the seemingly approaching noise...

After a long journey to the realm of the Griffins, Castiel is finally back to his land. He had made a promise to his long time friend and student, Shayde that he would teach him his most prized summoning contract Griffins, so after deciding a meeting point, Castiel made it to him. Castiel thought of how he would do this training, take Shayde to the Griffins or bring the Griffins to him, Castiel thought why not bring the Griffins to him. Castiel reaches the location and sees Shayde standing and waiting for Castiel. Castiel walks towards Shayde and stops about three meters away from him.

Hello, Shayde. How have you been? Before we meet the summonings, please tell me why they interest you so, and what you know about griffins themselves

-

OOC: No need to give me a wallie, just a basic underline about them. I know what you are capable of, this is merely just for training purposes. :p

You're biggest mistake was telling me you didn't want a wallie. I don't care if it's intentional or unintentional manipulation, but I take it as a challenge. I humbly request that you prepare for verbal combat, good ser.




"Hey Cas, nice to see you again man."

Pleasantries dispensed with, Shayde got down to tass bracks. Castiel asked him what he knew about Griffin's (Or however you spell it, there's more ways of spelling that one animal's name than there is actual people who care about how it's spelled.) and so Shayde was more than happy to oblige. Audibly clearing his throat, Shayde then proceeded to tell Castiel what he knew about Griffin's.

"Griffins, they're, well, they're mythical animals, a chimeric mix of lion and eagle, with varying forms, depending on the ratio they hold to. For example, the generic Griffin, as seen in most cases, like heraldry, has the body and limbs of a lion, with the head of an eagle, however, there could also be a Griffin with a Lion lower half, and Eagle top half, with claws instead of paws. It depends on where your sources come from, as their are many depictions of the Griffin. Some depictions show that they have regal and majestic wings, this is the generic Griffin depiction, while others, like the Keythong (ZOMG, dat name doe) show them having barbs, or spikes, and the Minoan Griffin doesn't have either. The Opincus Griffin is also depicted as having no wings, but otherwise resembles a generic Griffin.

Griffin's were common on heraldry because of their symbolic nature, as the Lion and Eagle are considered the kings of their respective species, beasts and birds. The Lion is considered a symbol of courage and bravery, while Eagle's represents wisdom, so a beast that is essentially a mix of the two would represent both of their natures in balance, and that's why it's silhouette is commonly used in heraldry.

In mythology, they're considered to be guardians of great treasure hoards and being's in possession of divine powers, or were guardians of said power, or the divine in general, myth is unclear on that part sadly, but I think they must be powerful enough to be considered "divine". Their feathers are rumoured to return sight to the blind, which could actually be a poetic way of saying they could dispel illusions, while their claws were coveted as they changed colour in the presence of poisons. Figures of high authority or royalty would place what they believed to be a Griffin Claw in their drinks, assuming it would change colour in the presence of poison. These claws were, of course, sold by charlatan's and travelling merchants as a way of making a quick bit of money.

In other words, Griffins are amazingly powerful, majestic mythological chimera, easily the equal to even the toughest animals. The real question is "Why wouldn't anyone want them?", at least if we are going by reputation and myth. But you didn't invite me here myths. You brought me for living legends."

You are just the worst. >.>

You didn't need to say all that, anyway very impressive, at least you've done your homework.

Castiel then takes out a scroll this scroll is the scroll to whom has all signed the contract, and there have only be four current signers not including himself.

Alright so with this scroll, I want you to unwrap and write your name in the square provided, but you must write your name in blood. Once complete, I'll teach you to summon your very own mini griffin, which you can call you own, does that sound good?

Aw, but you love me really. :rolleyes:




"My own Griffin huh, that's pretty cool. But do they really need to be called "Your own"? That's a silly name Sensei..." :sdo:

Shayde placed one of his hands on top of the scroll, holding it vertically as he uses his other hand to grab the end of the scroll and unravel it. He then carefully places it on the ground before studying the names on the Contract. A couple were familiar, but only through what he'd heard from others, but what he heard was pretty impressive. Without lingering too long, Shayde took out a kunai and drew it gently across his thumb. Using the blood from the small cut, Shayde wrote his name on the scroll, before cutting the tips of his fingers, and placing them on top of the scroll, applying a small amount of pressure, thus signing the contract with both his signature, and his identity through his fingerprints, which were unique to him. Shayde then wrapped the scroll back up, and handed it back to Cas. Shayde then prepared to perform the Summoning technique, pre-gathering the Chakra required in his hand for the technique, before turning to Castiel...

"You taught me the seals well Cas, they're the Boar, Dog, Bird, Monkey and Ram. Just say the word, and I'll give it a shot."

You are ready, best of luck and give it your best shot.

I bite into my thumb, and rub some blood on my palm, before weaving the Boar → Dog → Bird → Monkey & Ram seals. Once this is done, I slam my palm into the ground, and use my Chakra to open a Space/ Time portal that summons a basic animal from the Griffin Contract I just signed. A large cloud of smoke appears from a Summoning sign on the ground, and a shrill cry echoes through the air, as the Summoned Griffin beats it's wings to remove the smoke from view.

Fantastic, that is your very own Griffin, so what is it's name?
