First, genjutsu isn't so much "sending a wave of chakra" - chakra is transferred instantly between yourself and your target, which means it isn't "sent" towards them (this is why chakra sensors and dojutsu users can be caught in illusions). As for your questions, you have to change specific parts of the terrain - you can't alter how the ground and your body look in one use. But you can change things that are moving, as well as your own techniques (as long as you use the genjutsu after releasing the technique).
But that was a really well-done post - keep it up.

( Genjutsu: Kahen Tonsou ) - Illusion Technique: Flower Petal Escape
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user makes five handseals, appearing to dissolve into a shower of cherry blossom petals. These petals surround the opponent, blocking his vision. This allows the user to mask his movement effectively.

This technique begins with five hand-seals, before affecting your opponent's optic nerve to change your own appearance into a shower of Sakura petals, as if you had exploded as the flower. The petals then increase in number, an action which cannot be traced by human eye, until your opponent's vision is completely obstructed by sakura petals. Hidden behind the mass of Sakura petals, you're free to move around and attack. And yeah, it's a fairly simple illusion like that.

Ok I'll just continue with the initial set up you had for us.But before I forget do you recall that conversation we had about the use of false illusions? Well I asked Reborn and he reasoned it a bit different then you and the other Sensei we were discussing it with.Here's what he said, "Unless the jutsu is part of the environment itself it wouldn't change. For example: Chakra/elemental armors, projectiles, streams, waves, otherwise temporary or non-environment affecting entities wouldn't be subject to change.Wood Forests, giant earth structures/manipulated earth, Raining techs, etc, those too could be affected. You can't affect people or things that aren't part of/or effect the terrain."

---

The user uses his chakra to affect the optic nerve of the opponent to have him see the user immediately transform and scatter as a plethora of Sakura petals.The plethora of scattered Sakura petals then continue to increase in number growing in size fast enough to be untrackable by mere human eyes until covering a large enough area when the opponent's vision can be completely obstructed by the Sakura petals.The user hidden behind the overwhelming mass of the Sakura petals is then free to do whatever he pleases. Which is opportune for setting up sneak attacks or even just being used to create a small gap of time for the user to conceal himself somewhere within the terrain.

This specific illusion is useful in the fact that its not something on going, simple and to the point.Using it to conceal yourself for a few brief moments. The effectiveness of this technique depends on the use of the time in which you are concealed. Personally I would use that time to either set up and hide a clone for future sneak attacks.Or even use it as part of the combo for a sneak attack having either myself or a clone preform it to distract the target while the other directs the attack towards him. I also mentioned using this to conceal yourself, by that I mean use the time hidden behind the Sakura petals to actually find somewhere in the terrain to conceal yourself and hide from the opponent, be it for whatever reason.You could also use it for a "surprise" attack not sneak attack, the difference being it's litterly surprising like preforming the technique and while hidden behind the petals directly jumping out towards the target.As you mentioned it's a fairly simple technique and there's not much you can do with it aside from what I stated.

Honestly if the combustion of a ninja into an ever-multiplying plethora of Sakura petals doesn't seem like a genjutsu, I don't know what does.There are of course other assumptions that could be made that don't directly lead to it being a genjutsu. Such as it being a "Ninjutsu" technique similar to that of the liquification technique of the hozuki or the countless substitution jutsu variants. Though I believe some of the signs that it is a genjutsu would be the speed in which the technique is preformed and the lack of hand-seals, given there are some Ninjutsu techniques that don't require hand-seals it's still a way of deducing it, that and the speed in which the petals multiply and expand could be a sign of an illusion to someone who prides themselves on their eyes and reaction speed like an uchiha.

Questions : This is a one use gen right. As in you use the genjutsu it conceals you for a few moments then disperses right or do the Sakura petals continue to conceal you as long as you channel chakra for.Another question I had was one for genjutsu in general. You corrected me on how Genjutsu was instant chakra transferal, If I were to lets say release a fireball towards the opponent then place them under a gen wouldn't the gen take effect before the the actual jutsu hits them do to it being instant, and if so does that mean the gen always takes effect first regardless of how many techs used before it due to it being "instant"?

Okay, I answered that question on Skype. Now, should we do this RP style or simply through analysis?

I'll let you decide.

 

[Detective L]

Dean walks onto the training field, bag on his back and his eyes, speaking of a long journey before arriving here. He had taught many young students the ways of Genjutsu, and at this point, he was shy of a master himself, though with still much to learn. He had developed a love for it, something that he hadn't gained with other skills. Clad in a red shirt, with dark pants and shoes, he was ready for this new student.

"Dean Winchester is the name. Who're you, kid?"

Dean asked, with a stern disdain in his voice. He hoped this kid was ready as well.

 

[Yuse]

OOC: You're one of the few people who doesn't mind this font in italics lol.

Atemu had long awaited a skilled tutor in the art of illusions. His previous two teachers although being of a grand level in the respective art, had both succumb to busy blue disease. Thus Atemu had gone quite a while unable to advance. Until a former teacher of his, The Sage of Yin himself recommended a man, who he dubbed a master in his own right despite his young age.

I assure you, I am no child. You may refer to me as Atemu or Pharaoh.

His speech radiating confidence and an obvious aura of readiness to start his training.

 

[Detective L]

Dean smirked. This kid had spunk, which was always a good thing, he wasn't planning on training a wooden dummy. Nonetheless, Dean kept his serious face, as he looked at the young man.

"Pharaoh? You some kinda royal prick? Don't answer that.."

Dean scratched his head, as he looked at the young man. He wasn't too sure what they had covered before, so he wanted to slightly go over them once more, just to gauge his knowledge in the skill itself and how he understood it.

"Not too sure what you learned from your previous two teachers, each of who represent a pseudo sensei and clan leader to me, respectively. I'd like to gauge your knowledge on Genjutsu. Tell me everything you've learned, and we'll go from there. As in, tell me what is Genjutsu, how it works, how it can be broken, etc. You can use as much detail as you'd like."

Dean then merely crossed his arms, and waited for the response.

 

[Yuse]

Atemu disregarded Dean's comment, more so because he didn't understand what it meant. Instead he focused on the question asked by his new and somewhat "loose" sensei. His former two displayed a more serious, uptight manner of speech but Dean seemed rather care free which was somewhat of a nice change.

What I have learned about Genjutsu?

Atemu sits down as he begins his explanation.

Genjutsu is primarily Yin based, at times even refereed to as Yin release due to it being somewhat the embodiment of the spiritual side of ninjutsu. Genjutsu consists of utilizing chakra to induce illusions that can affect one of or several of the opponents senses such as sight, hearing, touch, scent, and even taste. The illusions are caused by the user using his chakra to disrupt the chakra flow of the opponent which causes said effects. In terms of effects, as mentioned Genjutsu can affect any of the senses or several at once. Its greatest strength is the endless potential for variety, in terms of creation. Genjutsu can be cast through several mediums such as sight which the uchiha are notable for, sound, (and in terms of the RP also Scent, Taste, and elements aka Elemental Genjutsu)

That is the basic principal of Genjutsu and how it works. Although as mentioned by an honorable sage with an affinity for toads, its not so much using genjutsu that's important. Its knowing how to counter or dispel it. That being said the most important knowledge one must have in order to break a genjutsu is the knowledge that he is indeed under the effects of one. The latter's difficulty varies with each illusion as some can be quite obvious meant to simply subdue, while others are more intricate and show little signs of their illusory nature. Regardless of the difficulty, the user can figure out he is under an illusion by using logic and relying on all his senses. For instance an illusion I have learned would be that of false surroundings, which as the name suggests causes the surroundings to take on a false appearance. If it were to be used to for example have the grass appear to be on fire. Once can use logic and his senses to figure out its an illusion. The grass is burning, but no heat can be felt emanating from the fire nor the scent of smoke can be smelt. all leading to the realization that it is indeed an illusion.

Of course it is possible to break through a genjutsu without directly knowing you are under one, although it happens rarely ( also it can be considered meta-gaming). Regardless knowing you are under the effects of an illusion is important, but it in now way stops you from being subject to said effects. Thus you must indeed break/dispel the genjutsu, which can be done in numerous ways. One way which is always available though quite harmful, is to simply harm yourself to regain your senses. The amount of harm however varies with the potency of the genjutsu. Such as biting a finger to break a D-rank or breaking a bone to release yourself from an S-rank version. The risk of this method are obvious but the advantage is it can be done at anytime, although it is important to note that if one is subject to an illusion that paralyzes them. They are indeed paralyzed regardless if knowledgeable that it is an illusion they're mind will still feel the effects and thus be unable to move therefore making the first method unusable. Another method of breaking out of an illusion, which is much safer is Full body chakra surges. What a full body surge does, is give a sudden surge of chakra throughout the body that disrupts the chakra flow once more and then returns it to normal working order, essentially getting rid of the disruption caused by the opponent. Examples of full body surges are Chidori nagashi and kakuzu's skin hardening technique ( It is important to note that elemental chakra surges need to be a rank higher then the Genjutsu and raw chakra surges need to be 2 ranks higher). Another method is Genjutsu kai, after realizing they are under the effects of a genjutsu the user will cast a hand-seal and momentarily halt or slow down their chakra flow. Then similar to a a full body surge will release it in a sudden burst to re-establish their flow, which causes foreign chakra that was obstructing theirs to be forced out ( the effectiveness of genjutsu kai is based on the post count of the user). Finally their is external chakra kai which sounds just as the name suggests genjutsu kai only applied by an external factor such as another person or entity capable of transferring chakra. The latter is what makes effectively using genjutsu on a Jinchuuriki so difficult.

Layering genjutsu I have not gone to far in dept with. However I do know the basics. Their is no real limit to how many genjutsu you can layer at a time at least not to my knowledge but they logically need to be able to mesh. You cant have contradictory illusions together at once, for example have a genjutsu that makes the terrain an ocean with no land and then layering a genjutsu that causes the terrain to become a desert.If they are both said to completely alter the terrain you cant have them at the same time. Also something else that is important to note with layering genjutsu is the layering of ranks. Unlike jutsu where the more you add the stronger it get genjutsu is different. It doesn't matter how many layers there are per say. What matters is that the user dispel the strongest layer for example if one were to layer 3 branks and 1 srank on me. As long as I am able to dispel the Srank layer all the other layer will be dispelled as well.

The only thing I have left to add is what I have learned from you. Which is despite the transferal of chakra to induce genjutsu being instant. There is a time frame between the chakra being transferred and the effects activating.

 

[Detective L]

Dean smirked as he heard this guy, this "Pharaoh" speak of Genjutsu. He knew quite a lot, and Dan wasn't surprised. Having been taught by both the Sage of Yin and a Nekura Clan Leader, he was supposed to know something.

"Good job, Atem. You covered all the basics I usually go through step by step with my students, though, there are a few small details I have to add that you might have missed. As you have stated, breaking Genjutsu can be done through pain, a chakra surge or an outside influence/introduction of a foreign chakra that disrupts the flow of chakra and then "resets" it in a way. You mention a Jinchuuriki and someone transferring chakra to you, but you missed a few others. Entering Sage Mode (due to the influx of Natural Energy, your chakra flow is disrupted and reset), activating a Curse Mark (introduction of a new type of chakra, Senchakra if I am not mistaken). These are strong enough to break you out of any Genjutsu, except MS and EMS grad Genjutsu. Oh, and activating the Eight Inner Gates acts as a chakra surge as well, due to the sudden release of chakra from all Tenketsu.

Also, only up to two Genjutsu can be layered, if they are non-conflicting. Another thing to remember, despite it being called Layering, it still follows the rules of time frame where I would have to cast two techniques. So that means, if your opponent is fast enough, or well versed in breaking Genjutsu, he could counter the first Genjutsu cast, before you layer the second one, unless the first one has some extreme effects that really delays the opponent long enough for you to cast the second and for it to take effect as well. Some Genjutsu are layered ones, in one technique, where it will Layer two techniques in one time frame, but as you said, breaking the Genjutsu of the necessary rank, would break both of them. Do you know why? Also, I don't think you mentioned something I like covering as well. If you have a A rank Genjutsu, and a S rank Genjutsu, which would you cast first, if you want to layer them, and why?"

Dean asked, seeing if Atem had understood what his previous teachers had taught him, and if he could think on the spot. The answer was quite obvious.

"Oh, and another thing, like I said before, Genjutsu follows time frame like any other technique around. If I start off the round with casting a Genjutsu on you, and then doing something else like running towards you with a Chidori, the first thing that would affect is the Genjutsu. You'll have the time to break it with any method, and after doing so, then attack me, or counter my Chidori or whatever. Genjutsu is fast, and can keep the opponent busy for a while, so people normally follow up with something fast. Sometimes, its best to both defend and break the illusion, to take two techniques down with one use and retaliate, yeah? Its usually described as instant, and although the Genjutsu takes effect fast, there is some time for you to break it."

 

[Yuse]

Atemu seemed generally disappointed, not by his teachers addition for things he had missed. Rather for the very fact that he had missed the information in the first place.

My apologies, my ignorance in the field has shown itself. I will try to be more attentive going forward. Indeed Senjutsu chakra is similar to, or actually more so a variation of external chakra kai. Where the chakra itself is not the basic chakra molded by the combination of yin and yang our spiritual and physical energies, but rather the energy found through nature as a whole. The latter is an efficient way to break out of genjutsu just as external chakra kai is. I have a question for you Dean Sama, it somewhat deviates from the lesson, so I hope you wont mind. It has been seen in regards to senjutsu that a user can have clones build up nature chakra and have them disperse to gain said chakra to the original body, regardless of location I might add. Thus the following question arises if one can disperse a clone to gain its stored up nature energy why can he not do the same in regards to normal chakra to break out of a genjutsu. As for a curse mark I am not too familiar with the difference between "Senjutsu" and "senchakra" I always considered a curse mark to simply be an attraction of unrefined nature energy, uncontrollable but beneficial in power. Thus impacting the user negatively the longer the duration used, similar to how a novice in senjutsu would be negatively effected at first (anamalistic transformation) despite gaining a power boost. So if my thinking is wrong on the latter please correct me. Its important to note that despite both being good methods of release. They are person specific not everyone can learn such an art or be lucky enough to receive the tainted mark. Ah yes the Eight Inner Gates, quite foolish of me to forget. In a way the EIG can be considered the embodiment of Yang being the the most advanced form of taijutsu achievable. So it only makes sense that it would be able to counter. You already mentioned EIG being a surge so I wont reiterate that, also is it safe to assume that after the inital activation of the EIG that the opponent can be caught in a genjutsu just as any person would?

Ah I see, only 2 illusions at a time. Truth be told that mistake was a fault of my own. As layering genjutsu was never covered by my former teachers rather more so from personal research. Understood, two illusions at a time and of course they can not be conflicting. That comment you made about the opponent countering before the second layer is set, does that apply to something such as the Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique. Primarily its function of being able to expend an additional five chakra points to create a double layer. As I see it as one use causing two layers at once similar to the concept of genjutsu that layer in one time frame as you mentioned, just clarifying to be sure I understand. As for your two questions, they go hand in hand. S-rank is the answer to the second question. Logically when layering a genjutsu the higher rank must be set first the reasoning is simple if a lower rank were set first then a high rank layered on top, the surge of chakra would be too powerful and overwhelm the chakra system and effectively break the target out of the original illusion. Whilst if the higher rank is set first the user will be able to disturb the chakra and add the second illusion without overpowering the opponents chakra system to the extend of breaking them out of the original illusion. That being said your original question was why breaking the necessary rank breaks all of the illusions. First we must reiterate that the "necessary" rank is that of the highest ranked genjutsu placed. The reason one needs only to break that genjutsu is the same reasoning behind the layering being overpowering. The user by releasing the highest rank illusion will in return overpower all the lower ranked illusions.

Indeed that was one of my questions. I now understand that their is a small interval but an interval regardless between the use of a genjutsu and it taking effect. That does seem like an effective strategy, immediately following up with a speedy attack. So that when the target breaks the illusion, thy would find themselves needing to defend the incoming attack with possably a small interval to counter. Full body surges wouldn't really be an effect way of countering and attacking at the same time unless the user were short range, within striking distance for a quick attack to the body. Perhaps maybe an omnidirection pulse that stem from the body would be better suited, although it would obviously require it to be a full body surge at the same time.

 

[Detective L]

Dean merely nodded his head as he listened to Atem. He was quite good, and understood the concepts easily, also taking in the information Dean had given him that he missed out. Genjutsu was complex, but if one got the basics of it right, then from there on, it simply becomes an art and a very graceful one at that.


"Good job, and now, let me answer the questions you had. Your first question is one I had thought about myself. Say you have a clone on the field, and you get caught in a Genjutsu. The clone is dispersed, but unlike a Sage Mode like clone, this clone merely disperses and brings back information it had, not really bring back any of your chakra that you used on it. A Sage Mode clone, on the other hand, acts as a container for Natural Energy, constantly gaining it from the surroundings as it sits in Mount Myo., or wherever it is. As it is called back, as Naruto had done, it brings him some Natural energy, an energy, different from spiritual and physical energy. This energy merely gave him back his Sage Mode, which had been finished at the time. Now, a normal clone only has a portion of just your chakra, 10% was it? So after it disperses, it doesn't reimburse you with its chakra (shown by Naruto, when he was training for Rasenshuriken, he made a bunch of clones and all the information came back after they dispersed, but he fainted due to strain on chakra. If they re-added chakra every time they came back, he'd be pretty much unstoppable), so no change happens in your chakra flow, a change which is needed to reset and thus, break an illusion.

You are right on the Senchakra and Senjutsu. Senchakra, is unrefined and more raw whilst Senjutsu is like the refined and focused version. Indeed, after a person has activated EIG, and is say, in the First Gate, I could still use a Genjutsu on him, since the burst of energy or chakra from his body, whilst still shown, isn't constant and in flux.

For the Layering, a technique like that, where two illusions can be cast in one time frame is a mere exception to the common rule. Due to it being merely environmental changes, they are basically done in one time frame, as the more complex and custom techniques, would require more time to take affect than that one.

You did good with answering my questions on Layering and breaking Genjutsu. I just want to add a small note, that Genjutsu of a Forbidden Rank are dangerous. Very few exist, and the shinobi who are capable of using them are very hesitant to use them in battle due to their controversial nature. If you do, however, one day find yourself in such a position, and you are not a Nekura...tough luck."

Dean jokes with Atem. He then looks at the time, and points at Atem.

"Got any questions before we proceed?"

 

[Yuse]

LOL, did I ever tell you I had a chance to learn Pervy's Forbidden Gen, But I ended up choosing technique that let me change lightning to fire or upgrade it a rank.
__________________________________________________________________________________

Atemu had a brief knowledge of the capabilities of a forbidden ranked genjutsu. He had seen only one in his life time, belonging to a sage who oddly enough was not all that interested in genjutsu. At the time Atemu was not much of a genjutsu user himself, and passed on the opportunity to learn one of the most dangerous illusions known ever to exist.

No questions

 

[Detective L]

Dean opened up his bag in response to the answer, as he now knew he had to start off the training.

"Alright, in that case, let us begin. I'll explain the technique to you, then I want you to give me an analysis on the technique. This analysis can include what you can use it for, the technique's advantages and disadvantages, etc. Anything relevant about the technique, perform it against a dummy of mine as well, since using it on me...won't work."

Dean grabs a scroll from his bag and throws it towards Atem.

Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10 (+5 if you use it double)
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user casts an illusion over an area that allows him to manipulate the way an area looks to fool an opponent. He can only change the way the terrain looks, and not any other feature.

"For the first one, a technique where you will use your chakra to cast an illusion on the opponent, without the need for hand seals. This illusion merely affects the terrain and nothing else. That might seem boring, but think a bit about what the terrain can encompass and how you can use this to its full ability."

Dean says, as he crosses his arms, and sees what this kid is made of. He creates a dummy as well, for training purposes.

 

[Yuse]

2 weeks, sorry about that. Wont happen again. Can we skip the second jutsu since I already did that one. My reply explaining it is the first post on this page, if you want to check it out.

---

As we discussed I am already familiar with the technique. However I would like to give you a good picture of how I originally learned its use. So that you may add on anything you feel is of importance. While the general use as you know is debatable, even between my two teachers their were some contradictions. The general gist of the technique as mentioned to me by the Sage of yin himself is "Unless the jutsu is part of the environment itself it wouldn't change. For example: Chakra/elemental armors, projectiles, streams, waves, otherwise temporary or non-environment affecting entities wouldn't be subject to change.Wood Forests, giant earth structures/manipulated earth, Raining techs, etc, those too could be affected. You can't affect people or things that aren't part of/or effect the terrain."

 

[Detective L]

"In that case, indeed. The Sage of Yin is extremely well versed in the arts of Genjutsu, and as such, I know you understand the technique."

Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user makes five handseals, appearing to dissolve into a shower of cherry blossom petals. These petals surround the opponent, blocking his vision. This allows the user to mask his movement effectively.

"Now, for the next technique. This one requires five hand seals before the Genjutsu is induced on the opponent. The opponent would then see you, the user, dissolve into a large amount of cherry blossom petals. These petals then move towards the opponent, and surround them, which of course, obscures their vision. This all happens within the Genjutsu, and this allows you to attack fast enough in reality, whilst the opponent is stuck in the Genjutsu. Tell me something interesting about this one, there are quite a few uses for it."

 

[Yuse]

A very simple illusion yet filled with potential in regards to battle. With the petals surrounding the opponent their vision is obscured. With the user behind the petals in reality he is free to take advantage of the moment in any way he pleases. For example blind the opponent and take cover or hide, change locations. Create a clone and set up several elaborate plans. Or it can simply be used to blind the target and then follow up with a powerful attack meant to kill them while their vision is blinded. Whats best about this illusion is that it surrounds the entirety of the target. Meaning one could essentially attack from anywhere while they are blinded. My one question would be does the illusion obscure the opponents vision then stop or does it continue obscuring their vision until the target breaks the genjutsu.

 

[Detective L]

"It obscures their vision as long as the Genjutsu is in play, and the petals are in front of their eyes. Can also be combined with the basic Ninjutsu technique that creates real Cherry Blossoms, using chakra, which also blinds the opponent. Nonetheless, good job."

Dean says, as he grabs the next scroll.

Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: The user does one handseal and throws a paper bomb at the enemy. The enemy, trapped in a genjutsu will see a clone of the user advancing upon him. As the paper bomb reaches the enemy, it explodes

"This is quite a cool technique as well, where you will form a single hand seal, which induces the Genjutsu on the opponent. You will then launch a paper bomb at the opponent, which the opponent will see as a clone, and as such, once it reaches said opponent, it explodes. Useful, but easily recognized as a Genjutsu. You know what to do."

 

[House]

Alright, I guess I'll pickup your training Yusei. Please perform what the previous post wanted you to perform. The servant of course.

 

[Yuse]

If its alright with you Ill just analyze the technique for you and you can add anything.

It is a simple genjutsu technique that causes the target to perceive a clone of the user running towards them, while in reality the "clone" is in fact a kunai with a paper bomb attached ready to explode upon contact This illusion can be great in the middle of a heated battle as clones are a common technique used in battles and thus the target might not realize that it is actually a genjutsu they might even try to waste chakra using a technique to kill the perceived "clone" only to have the paper bomb explode. it can be paired with other illusions such as the flower petal to make it more realistic in the sense that the clone was made while they were blinded.

 

[House]

Alright, analyze these two techniques.

( Kasumi Jūsha no Jutsu ) - Mist Servant Technique

- Similar to last gen in the sense it works with clones. However this one revolves around a plethora of them coming from everywhere and multiply every time they are attacked. i think this is an interesting illusion as one could use it to overwhelm a target at first assuming they dont realize its an illusion straight away they might find themselves cornered and try to use some drastic to rid the field of all these targets. That and as you mentioned the user can coordinate attacks to make these clone seem more of a threat. But imo its more of just a scare tactic

( Magen: Narakumi ) - Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing

- This is actually really interesting given how our RP is set to not have Genjutsu effect actual emotions. But striving away from the actual mechanics I like this genjutsu alot. But it seems too vague in a sense in how you rp it as you would have to just state what you fear most without being specific as the user himself has knowledge of the fear. But building on that it allows a great deal of variety as different opponents will have different fears and allow a wide scenario of rp.
