Since this is your first lesson in fire before I teach you techs you'll need to tell me some things.

The first thing that you will need to do is explain the fire element to me in YOUR OWN WORDS. I would like you to tell me the basic strengths and weaknesses of the element, how these strengths and weaknesses can be used to your advantage or your disadvantage, what the fire element personifies to you, and why you find the fire element interesting or if you don't find it interesting, why you have that opinion. And basically anything else you want to say about fire relevant to the training and RP.

We'll discuss it then move on to the techniques afterward.

Fire Release, or Katon is one of the five elemental chakra natures. It is weak against water as water can extinguish fire. Fire is strong against wind because wind feeds flame and increases its power. Fire can also be used in conjunction with Lightning when a powerful Fire Release technique is used to alter the weather conditions in preparation for a powerful Lightning Release technique (Kirin). Members of the Uchiha clan have a fire affinity. Fire Release is a component of the following advanced nature Kekkei Genkai: Lava Release and Boil Release.

I think fire is interesting because of it's power of destruction. It is a good element to use when you want to cause great damage.

That's the basics of the theory behind the fire element. But tell me what the element personifies. What do you think about when you think about fire? What emotions does it bring from deep within you? You will need to understand the nature of the element before you can ever use it. Fire can be used to give life, but if you don't have true understanding of it, it can take life as well.

>_> Why does this keep happening to me? :T_T:

I think that the element of fire personifies emotions like anger and hatred. When I think of fire, I think of it burning anything in its path. Almost anything that touches fire is burned and damaged. The emotions that fire bring from deep within me is rage and aggression. If I had the ability of pyrokinesis, I would use it to destroy things when I get angry because fire can burn things down easily.. Fire's nature is destructive, it spreads and grows larger, destroying anything it can. However, if fire is controlled properly, it can be used to give life, warmth, and comfort. In order for fire to be used like this, you need to know how to control it properly. If you cannot control it, then it will get out of control and it can harm you. This is what I know about the element of fire.

You should have known one sentence wasn't going to cut it.

That explanation was much better. Now you need to begin using your fire chakra at a smaller scale so you can develop control over it before you begin with jutsu. This is one basic way to help strengthen your fire chakra control. Hold a candle in your hands. The candle tip is already lit and there is a small flame on it. Focus your fire chakra into the candle tip, and breathe in and breathe out. When you inhale bring your fire chakra back into yourself, when you exhale release the fire chakra into the tip of the candle. This will help you use fire in a calm manner so you don't lose control. The fire on the candle should change accordingly with your breathing. If can both control your breathing and the flame, you will be skilled enough to begin performing more advanced feats.

I take the candle and hold it in my hands. After generating fire chakra in my hands, I focus it into the tip of the candle, which is already lit with fire. Once I have done this, I close my eyes and start to inhale and exhale in a calm and controlled manner.. When I inhale I bring the fiery chakra back into my body, taking the small flame off of the candle. When I exhale, I release the chakra back into the candle, returning the flame. After I do this for a while, I feel like I know how to control fire properly.

You explained what happens in general but like many students you didn't explain how your emotions affect your chakra. This is called nature transformation. How do you transform your chakra into that nature? What do you feel when you release chakra and turn into fire? How do you actually transform the chakra into fire? That's why I asked you to repeat what the fire element personifies, use that knowledge to make your chakra become fire.

During this process, I keep a calm state of mind and only focus on what I am doing, keeping the flame stable and controlled. I try to not think of things that anger me, if that happened, then the fire would get out of control and grow too large and engulf me in the flames. To create the fire chakra, I heat up my chakra to very high temperatures, causing it to transform into flames. When it leaves my body, I feel the heat of the chakra in my hands, warming them as the chakra enters and exits my body.

This is how I will train you: I will first post the technique and the describe it in my own words, and then state a few sentences about the usefulness of the technique both offensively and defensively. I would like you to respond by by telling me:

- how you would perform the technique in battle
- how you will use the technique offensively
- how you can defend against the tech
- whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting

I would like a few sentences for each point or a few bullets. Whatever you prefer. I'll be going at 2 to 3 techniques per post to keep the training moving. But I may do one technique a post for certain techs I feel deserve them.

( Ryu Kaen Bakufuu ) - Dragon Flame Blitz
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user shoots balls of fire at the opponent.

( Katon: Komakai Kaki ) - Fire Release: Small Fire
Rank: D
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user spews a small fireball.


These two techniques are almost exactly the same so I'll go over them at the same time. The technique is only short range and is only D-rank so it won't provide much use in battle but it is necessary to learn more advanced adaptions of the jutsu. Remember how you focused fire chakra when you breathed in and breathed out. This is where that comes into play. You must focus your fire chakra in your stomach while inhaling and concentrating the fire chakra. Then when you exhale move the fire chakra from your stomach into your esophagus then finally into your mouth where you shape it into a fire ball. Then release it out while maintaining the spherical shape so you don't lose control of the fire. This is the most basic basic fire ball technique you can learn. It can be used against D-rank wind and countered with D-rank water. Not much use but a needed stepping stone.

- how you would perform the technique in battle
I gather chakra inside my stomach while superheating it to make it change into Katon chakra. I inhale deeply and concentrate the chakra keeping it under control. When I exhale, the chakra slowly moves from my stomach up to my throat. When it is in my mouth, I use shape manipulation to change the form of the chakra, giving it a spherical shape and changing it into a fireball. Once this is done, I spew out the fireball at my target, burning it.

- how you will use the technique offensively
You would use it to cause damage to your opponent and burn them

- how you can defend against the tech
Before the fireball reaches you, you shoot another at it to counter it and stop it from reaching you

- whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting
I don't find this interesting because it is just a small, simple fireball. And it has few uses.

One sentence replies for each part work suffice for future techs, at least two full sentences are needed. But since we are only at D-rank I don't mind but I want to give you a heads up.


( Kaen Shuriken Ranbu ) - Blazing Shuriken Dance
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will throw several shuriken at the enemy and then inflames them with fire to cause extra damage.


This jutsu is somewhat simple and tricky in its usage. You can see that the range of this technique says short but it can indeed be used to hit an opponent at mid range. Why is that? Because a ninja is capable of throwing a shuriken up to mid range. But the key this to remember is that this is not the shuriken's range but the range of the fire. So when you throw the shuriken you focus fire chakra in your stomach and release it out short range from you. You release small blasts of fire instead of one fire ball like the previous jutsu, the small blasts hit the shuriken in short range thus inflaming them. The shuriken can then still go up to mid range. But any shuriken not in short range cannot be flamed. This jutsu can be further power with Rotating Shuriken to make a more lethal offensive combo by producing a wind/fire shuriken. This technique can obviously be blocked with anything that can push shuriken away, the simplest of which would be a stronger fire ball or wind blast.


( Katon: Kasumi Enbu no Jutsu ) - Fire Release: Mist Blaze Dance Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offense/Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After performing the necessary hand seals Snake → Ram → Monkey → Tiger, the user is able to create and blow a flammable gas from their lungs. Once it comes in contact with fire or sparks, the gas ignites into a large fireball.


This jutsu requires three hand seals. Instead of actually creating the fire chakra, the user focus fire chakra in their lungs and maintains it in a gaseous state allowing it to take the form of gas. The user then breathes the gas out of their out and once it is release it is just gas. This ther were this technique is double edged. You can ignite the gas with a lighter and cause the technique to become a fire ball of D-rank but you opponent can also ignite the gas and cause it to explode in your face. I would recommend using this then using a wind jutsu to push the gas toward your opponent before igniting it so that it doesn't explode, or just using a tech that creates a fire ball directly. Just use water to stop the fire ball and wind to push away the mist.


Keep these in mind, they are basic versions of more advanced jutsu.

( Kaen Shuriken Ranbu ) - Blazing Shuriken Dance

- how you would perform the technique in battle
I reach into my weapon pouch and take out five shuriken. I then throw them all at the opponent at the same time. Immediately after I throw the shuriken, I create fire chakra inside my body and make it travel from my stomach up to my throat and into my mouth. Once the chakra is in my mouth, I divide it into five fireballs and shoot them at the shuriken. This causes the shuriken to become coated in fire, which increases their power.

- how you will use the technique offensively
I will use this to cause two types of damage to the opponent. I use it to cut the opponent as well as burn them

- how you can defend against the tech
To defend against this jutsu, you use a projectile at the shuriken to block them and stop them from reaching you. Or you could use a jutsu to move yourself out of the range of the shuriken

- whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting
I find this interesting because it cuts the opponent as well as burns them. It is also useful because you could aim the shuriken in different directions to make it hard to dodge and increase the chance of it hitting.


( Katon: Kasumi Enbu no Jutsu ) - Fire Release: Mist Blaze Dance Technique

- how you would perform the technique in battle
I begin by performing the four handseals necessary to perform the technique, Snake, Ram, Monkey, Tiger. After doing this I focus Katon chakra inside my lungs. I don't turn it into actual fire, keeping it in its original state and allowing it to take a gaseous form. I breathe the flammable gas out of my mouth, aiming it at my enemy. Once they are surrounded, by the gas, I ignite it with a lighter, causing it to explode around my enemy.

- how you will use the technique offensively
You would use this to make explosions. Also to cause burn damage to the opponent.

- how you can defend against the tech
You can use a wind jutsu to blow the gas away from you.

- whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting
I find this technique useful and interesting. I think you could use the gas to cloud the opponent's vision, but I don't know if it's that thick. Also, you could use the gas to make the opponent choke if they inhale it.

( Katon no Jutsu ) - Fire Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 10
Damage points: 20
Description: The user will release a small but powerful flame of fire at their opponent.


Remember the first two techniques? This technique is basically the same exact thing except with one large difference. It is mid-range. Yeah, I know. It's still D-rank so it's not that useful but as you can see. The basics do eventually work their way into more advanced techniques. The same as you did before inhale and gather fire chakra in your stomach, then as you exhale release the fire chakra out of your mouth. You can similarly use this to combat D-rank wind or cancel out C-rank wind and you can overpower this technique with almost any water technique since even D-rank water is stronger than D-rank fire.

- how you would perform the technique in battle
I start by gathering chakra in my stomach and igniting it, in the same manner as the previous techniques. The fire chakra travels fro my stomach, to my throat and then into my mouth. This time, when the chakra is in my mouth, I exhale the fire and I don't stop, releasing a constant stream of fire at my opponent

- how you will use the technique offensively
I will use this to burn my opponent. I could also use it to knock away projectiles aimed at me.

- how you can defend against the tech
I would use a jutsu to move myself out of the fire's range. The stream only travels in one direction

- whether or not you find the technique useful or interesting
I don't really find this interesting. It's another simple technique.

Welcome to the C-rank fire techniques.

( Katon: Shōkasou ) - Fire Release: Small Fire Stream
Rank: C
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage points: 30
Description: The user will create a small short flame at the opponent. This flame is capable of making the target collapse due to the heat of the technique. This technique requires no handseals.


As stated, the most beneficial face about this technique is that is requires no hand seals. The user simply focuses their fire chakra in their stomach and continues to move it up into their mouth and release it continuously to give it the form of a stream. You have to make sure that you evenly release the fire out of your mouth so that the stream does not lose control and burn your face by accident. The saddest part about this technique is that it is only short range. As such it cannot be used to affect you opponent unless you are close to them. But this is an excellent technique to use in short range to combine with hand to hand combat as you can attack your opponent then suddenly catch them off guard by breathing fire onto their face. To defend against it just get out of range for simplicity, or overpower the technique with some water blast jutsu.


(Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu ) - Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After performing the necessary hand seals Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger, a ninja inhales air, and utilizing a large amount of fire chakra, spews a large fireball from their mouth after blowing through a ring made by the thumb and index finger of the user, incinerating everything in range. The fireball ignites externally.


Another advanced version of one of the D-ranks but this is somewhat of a weaker fireball as well as there are stronger techniques that achieve the same purpose except with higher power and less hand seals. As you can see this technique requires a whopping 6 hand seals for a simple C-rank fire ball. The same way as before, inhale air bringing it in to your stomach, and focus your fire chakra there. Then move the fire chakra into your mouth and create ring by putting your index finger and your thumb together. Breathe the fire through the fire to maintain the shape of the fire. The ring is used to help you bring the chakra together so that the fire does not disperse and maintains the shape of a ball. That is the most important concept of the technique as once it is release you are no longer performing it, but with streams you must maintain it. You cause use this technique to defeat wind techniques of the same rank or cancel out with one rank higher, and counter it with a stronger water jutsu.
