[HA] Dancing to Nathan's tune

[Nathan]

Could probably make it a custom, it getting approved that is another question.

(Ototon Genjutsu: Funka to Botsuraku) - Sound Release Illusionary Art: Eruption and Downfall
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user charges Ototon chakra into his hands and snaps his fingers, triggering a genjutsu through the emission of high frequency sound waves. As he snaps, the sound is amplified, sounding as if it is directly by the enemy's ear. To them, it sounds as if something has just snapped in half. The user then manipulates the illusion to make it appear as if either a large branch has fallen from a tree or the ground under them has broken clean in half, causing the target to believe they are falling through the earth or have been struck with a large object, pushing them to the earth. The user has control over the illusion, being able to make it seem as if entire trees have been snapped in half, falling on the target or as if an earth structure has collapsed either above or beneath the opponent, etc. The illusion can be edited to fit the situation and even the sound can be slightly altered deepening on the object that is "snapped". Is more effective depending upon the terrain this is used in ( extremely effective in a forest, not effective in a desert ).

Now one of the few sound gens, you snap your fingers together. Which produce sound waves that will go directly into your targets ear. The gen will make them think something above or below them has snapped in half, causing panic. Above, a large tree branch or below the earth has broken clean under them, can be one of these two options, depending on how your explain it. Obviously this technique is only good depending on your terrain.

This will come handy I'm sure. I believe the way to break out of other genjutsu also applies to this no? Also do I need line of sight with the user to perform the gen, or do he only need to hear the sound?

 

[Nathan]

They only need to hear the sound, and yeah basic breaking out of genjutsu applies to sound genjutsu.

(Ototon: Teisei Tame Inu) - Sound Release: Whispers to the Canines
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user gathers Ototon chakra in his vocal chords. He then whistles, releasing a high frequency sound wave, creating a sound similar to a faint buzzing in the target's ear, similar to Ringing Madness. However, instead of causing a foe to become disoriented, it impairs his hearing, making the buzzing the only thing that he can hear, seeming as if the target has bees swimming around his ear. The buzzing drowns any sound out, unless they are exceptionally loud (i.e. great explosions, one yelling directly into the target's ear, etc), making it very difficult for the target to hear incoming jutsus or attacks.
Note: Hearing impairment lasts 3 turns

This one pretty much impairs your targets hearing. How does it do that?

 

[Elmage G Ace]

I'm not sure,but I feel due to it being a high frequency sound wave, it prevents normal sounds(like incoming jutsus, which would have a relatively low frequency) from being heard by the victim

Well, it is simple yet at the same time, ingenious. The user charges his Sound based chakra in his vocal chords and whistles. This causes a high frequency sound to be emitted. This causes the opponent to hear this buzzing Sound, which later drives out any other sound except itself. this allows the opponent to use stealthy techniques against the opponent, without the chance of the opponent being able to counter because they heard it. A very nice technique and should be strategically, like before using Stone Spikes or a stealthy technique that comes from behind the opponent. I can already see a few techniques that I will be using in conjunction with this. It even goes up to long range and lasts for three turns, making this, a very powerful yet undercover technique.

Any questions?

 

[Elmage G Ace]

Yeah, nice. Nope no questions

Next:

(Ototon: Himei Zetsubou no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Scream of Despair Skill
Rank: B
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: Similar to the (Ototon: Hibiki Rendan no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Echo Assault Skill, the user concentrates chakra into their vocal cords, amplifying his/her voice and lets out a scream, roar or a yell. The effect is a large emission of low frequency, high amplitude sound waves but instead of a forward attack, its manipulated into an omnidirectional sound blast that expands outwards all around the user, pushing attacks and enemies backwards with might.

Pretty much Echo Assault Skill just much shorter range, and an omnidirectional blast.

 

[Elmage G Ace]

would have been awesome if it was long range, but would work well against projectiles, I can see other wonderful use for this tooxd

 

[Nathan]

Three favourite B-rank sound techniques and why, please.

 

[Elmage G Ace]

three favs... that's a tough one

(Ototon: Chūnyū no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Infusion Technique

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: A simple technique where the user touches an object and infuses it with sound chakra, enabling it to vibrate and produce a low frequency, high amplitude sound. The vibrations cause objects to bounce off of the targeted object which is highly useful when fighting with weapons or to make thrown basic weapons resist opposing thrown weapons.. It also resonates to the user if he were to be blind (because of a genjutsu for example), letting the the user know the objects position and what it deflects. It can also be applied to solid objects or structures the user may wish to destroy or, by applying it to the ground or similar, detect what is around him by making it resonate with the same low frequency. The object gets no added power, only the ability to deflect incoming objects that want to counter it

Being a fan of pointy things, I like throwing them alot, and as such, this would be an added advantage, especially if the victim has no way of knowing the weapon is infused with sound chakra, as such I would use this on projectile weapons, and maybe a sword


( Ototon: Teisei Tame Inu) - Sound Release: Whispers to the Canines

Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20

I like the fact that one can temporarily shuts his opponents ears, and it's quite difficult to evade, using this, and then blinding the opponent at the same time would be a big advantage, even if it may be temporary,it might just be enough


(Ototon: Himei Zetsubou no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Scream of Despair Skill

Spoiler

Rank: B
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: Similar to the (Ototon: Hibiki Rendan no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Echo Assault Skill, the user concentrates chakra into their vocal cords, amplifying his/her voice and lets out a scream, roar or a yell. The effect is a large emission of low frequency, high amplitude sound waves but instead of a forward attack, its manipulated into an omnidirectional sound blast that expands outwards all around the user, pushing attacks and enemies backwards with might

This has many uses for me, and being easy to execute I can switch from defensive to offensive, it's a somewhat perfect defense, limited only by its rank, so I'd use it too

 

[Nathan]

Great choices!

A-ranks!

(Ototon: Ōkī Hibiki Rendan no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Greater Echo Assault Skill
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: This is a much greater and focused version of the (Ototon: Hibiki Rendan no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Echo Assault Skill technique in which the user gathers his sound chakra into his throat as he inhales afterwards exhaling as he screams, yells or roars. The resulting effect is a massive forward shockwave of low frequency, high amplitude sound that levels anything in its path. Unlike its weaker technique, the massive power it carries makes it slightly slower, equal to an average equally ranked Raiton technique. Unlike the unfocused nature of its weaker version, its focused almost like a beam, affecting an area of 50º in front of the user. If used within a water source it receives +20 damage.

Same as the other one with a slight change, it's more like a beam and affecting 50 degrees in front of you. And it is slightly slower then a lighting technique. Compared to the other one where it is faster.

 

[Elmage G Ace]

It's nice, I'm definitely spamming this lolxd it lcks in speed, it makes up for in range and sheer power, and I think if used at the right time, this technique could prove fatal. I assume I can combo this with a fast moving water stream jutsu no?

 

[Nathan]

Yes, you can.

(Ototon: Kireme Yure) - Sound Release: Shattering Vibrations
Rank: A
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user gathers a large amount of sound chakra into both of his hands, creating a vibration field around them that resonates at different, yet low, frequencies. The user will then slam both hands together, forcing them to resonate with each other and explode. This creates a massive sound shockwave that pushes back anything in front of the user in a 160º radius.

Everything up to 160 degrees radius will be pushed back in front of you, by simply clapping your hands releasing a massive shockwave. Handy for those higher then B-rank techniques, so it can only push back A-rank and below. Again doesn't destroy them.

 

[Elmage G Ace]

Nice!!! Since it doesn't destroy the technique, one could say it pushes it right back at the opponent right? That's cool, really comes handy (pun intended)

 

[Nathan]

Yeah just pushes it back.

(Ototon: Jakkuhanma) - Sound Release: Jackhammer
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A (60 if contact with the ground remains)
Description: The user charges Ototon chakra into their feet as they run, releasing it as each foot hits the earth and makes sound. As each steps sound off, low frequency waves are released, each wave causing an immense vibration to propagate through the ground and into any enemy, making their bodies lose balance as the waves collide with the target repeatedly. As the waves continue to hit the target, the vibrations increase and cause internal pain, almost as if each wave is drilling into the target's body, causing the target to also become nauseous from the continuous waves. Despite its danger, the technique can easily be defended by simply severing ones contact with the ground.

Pretty much releasing sound as you run, or run on the spot. Every time your feet leave the ground they release sound hitting your intended target causing internal damage, and they get worse and worse as time goes by and as long as you are running.

 

[Elmage G Ace]

Awesome! Perhaps this will unbalance my opponent enough for me to get close xD Say one is on a sentient "earth" creature, like the stone gollem for example, will this affect him/her? also I guess the faster you are on foot, the more deadly the technique, since the waves would reach its victim faster no?

 

[Nathan]

The waves would reach them yes, they are still in contact with the ground, via a medium, but still in contact.

(Ototon: Takanari Kichigai) - Sound Release: Ringing Madness
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user, gathering their sound chakra into their throat and emitting a sound (anything from a simply whistle to speaking or screaming, etc), creates a high frequency wave that targets a foe's ear, causing this portion of sound to remain in their opponents' ears, manifesting as a building ringing sound. The ringing continues to grow as time progresses, originally disrupting how a person hears hampering their ability to think clearly. From that point, it starts to mess with their balance until they become incredibly disorientated, and unable to mold chakra properly due to this.
Note: Lasts 8 turns and reduces damage of the jutsu used against the user by -5 until this effect wears off while increasing the chakra cost of every technique the enemy uses by +10

Now this technique is badass. I will let you explain it, and I will pick up on any errors you may have explained.

 

[Elmage G Ace]

Real Badass this one! Well, I'll try my best to explain ._.

the user triggers the technique by making a sound, this causes the high frequency sound (which is rather disturbing) to increase in pitch as time passes, distorting the balance of the victim, to the point that it causes confusion in the persons mind, instability, the person finds it difficult to think clearly, leading to loss of focus, and with focus gone, the victim will find it quite difficult to mold chakra to perform a technique, and would not be able to perform techniques that require concentration

 

[Nathan]

Yeah, it's a superb technique. Last A-rank.

(Ototon: Midasu no koe) Sound Release: The voice of Midas
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user charges sound chakra into each of their hands and slams them together, creating a sound similar to two heavy golden cymbals crashing together. As the hands slam together, it releases a high pitched, high frequency sound wave, resonating in the enemies ear, and causing muscle paralysis upon hearing it. As the loud sound happens, it creates an echoing amongst the field, trapping any who hear it under paralysis, causing slight pain to them, causing their ear drums to bleed. Paralysis lasts one turn but the user cannot use any other sound techniques for 2 turns after using it.

Lets talk about this technique, what do you like about this one?

Two heavy cymbals? Dayum!
I love the fact that it doesn't require handseals, making it easy to perform, although I still have to use both hands, but what's amazing about it is the muscle paralysis its going to cause, and the fact that it can affect multiple targets. This could prove fatal if used at the right time.

Question: What do you suggest is the best way to counter a technique like this? ._.
