[Doton] Doton with Zaphkiel

[Rohasu]

*Eagerly awaits Zaphkiel to begin his instructions*

Last jutsu performed;

( Doton: Iwa Rendan ) - Earth Release: Rock Barrage
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short – Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will concentrate their chakra into their arm and then release their chakra creating a ring of rocks that are then flung at the opponent.

 

[Zaphkiel]

With a hand seal you cause two sections of earth to rise up at both sides of an opponent crushing them in between. Give me one situation in which you'd use this technique.

(Doton: Ganban Kyu) - Earth Release: Bedrock Coffin

Spoiler

Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Mid/Long
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After performing the Rat hand seal, the user to control multiple sections of rock and move them around their opponent. The user then forms two gigantic sections that crush the opponent.

By changing the composition of the ground below you it allows the method of travelling through the earth much like how a mole would. While underground you may sense what's happening above through vibrations I presume. Be careful though, you can't form hand seals underground and the only thing(s) you can do is perform techniques below C ranked (the one's that don't require hand seals that is).

(Doton: Moguragakure no Jutsu) – Earth Release: Hiding like a mole technique

Spoiler

Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Long
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user changes earth into fine sand by channeling chakra into it, allowing the user to dig through it like a mole. While underground one can sense what is happening on the surface and use the information to launch a surprise attack on the enemy. Once can also hide deep in the ground, escaping to a depth where the enemy cant reach. It also appears that after digging, the ground can be returned to its original state, leaving no trace of where the user entered the earth. While inside the earth, the user cannot make handseals and can only use Earth techniques below C-Rank. If he tries to do a higher ranked technique, he'll disrupt the Hiding like a mole technique and be left crushed.

Nice technique, to create spikes of earth from the ground or existing earth techniques you created, they're pretty powerful enough to pierce through less dense obstacles and can reach up to mid ranged. Again, give me a scenario where you see yourself using this.

(Doton: Ganchūsō) - Earth Release: Stone Spikes

Spoiler

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.

Jutsu #1
I perform the rat handseal release my chakra into multiple sections of rock and manipulate them around the dummy, rise two gigantic secrions of rock to rise on both side, proceeding to crush it into nothing.

I think, it would actually be usable to catch (if possible) someone off gaurd while in the middle of casying kirin, interrupting and forcing them to cancel it.

Jutsu #2
Channeling my chakra below me into the earth changing its compistion to allow me to burrow through the ground, rising up behind you.

(Not sure if wanted me to do this for all of them) if thr enemy fire a giant fire tech you could use this to dodge and go past it, and be able to come up behind them literally and killing them if capable.

Jutsu #3
Channeling my chakra into the earth i manipulate the earth below the dummy, causing it to quickly rise into multiple spike shaped piplara of earth stabbing into it all over.

It could be used after improsning the opponent in the advanced water prison, effectively trapping and killing them.

I had to search through the training thread to find this; I hadn't subscribed, apologies.

Ok so by releasing your Doton chakra into the ground you take control of a section of the terrain and cause it to shake, like a mini quake or tremor. This may seem insignificant due to its rank but this technique can interrupt virtually anything and anyone by causing them to lose footing/balance if used correctly making it one the most useful canon techniques despite its rank.

(Doton: Yochi no Douyou) - Earth Release: World Shaking

Spoiler

Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user will concentrate and release their chakra into the ground to create a small tremer that can result in making the enemies lose their footing and fall to ground or miss the aim of a given technique.

Another quick and effective technique, by spitting sticky earth i.e mud, at the target you can blind them and also disrupt them temporarily, enough so to even make a quick escape. It can also make a sticky patch on the ground to slow down enemies.

*You're bound by rope, and your captor towers over you with a kunai in hand ready to take your life*

(Doton: Dorosandan) – Earth Release: Mudshot

Spoiler

Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage points: 10
Description: The user spits a thick globule of mud at the target. If aimed correctly, it can blind the target's vision and choke them. It can also be used to create a sticky patch on the ground.

Now this quite the overpowered C ranked technique. With just a hand seal you can cause structures to crumble at your whim. It works on man made structures and techniques up to C ranked. Albeit very useful its also very contextual and relies heavily on terrain, that means this can't be used anywhere and anytime. In the description, one of the opportune moments to use this in a cave, where should it crumble would be deadly to enemies. Another way is by causing walls to shatter in your way, like when in a building looking for a quick escape.

*The building is infested with demons, should then escape they would wreak havoc on the world, stop all of them at once*

(Doton: Iwa Yado Kuzushi) - Earth Release: Stone Lodging Destruction

Spoiler

Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A (up to 60)
Descripton: The user will do one hand seal and cause nearby earth structures (either natural occurring ones on the field (such as cave ceilings, cliffs, etc), man made (buildings, etc) or jutsu made (up to C-Rank active structures)) to collapse and fall. This technique allows the ninja to control nearby stone and rock and dislodge any vulnerable or sensitive spots, causing the structure to collapse. This can be especially useful if in a cave or a stone lodging. The technique can loosen the rocks and cause them to come raining down on whomever is trapped inside. The damage depends on the size of the cavern or rock lodging above or nearby the target and not on the amount of chakra used which doesn't need to be high. A large cave with a thick ceiling can easily do the physical damage equivalent to an A-Rank technique but due to the damage not being focused or chakra fueled, its also easily defendable.

I'll be gone on study leave until about October 5th, sorry for any inconvenience this may cause in advance. You may refer to my sensei Ushiro and if he has the time he'll fill in the training til then.
