Riding on one of her Doki, Tayuya charged in towards her new student. Why that kid was asking so much of her, she'd never understand, but for a genjutsu master such as herself, it was to be expected. Stopping just before the student, Tayuya hopped off of her Doki's shoulders, examining the student top to bottom.
So you're the one? The one I'm supposed to train? Then why don't we get to explanations; what is genjutsu, how do you form it, what are its strengths and weaknesses, and why do you want to learn it? Well!? Speak!

"what's taking her so long?" the young shinobi thought to himself "may be she didn't honour my request..."
Suddenly he saw her charging towards him from afar..."I get to train with a genjutsu master. What are the odds of finishing this training in one piece...I'll soon find out." he was still lost in thoughts when he was bombarded with questions

"Yes I'm the one, Uhh...
Genjutsu, meaning illusionary art, is a technique employed by shinobis, were instead of physically attacking the enemy, like nin and taijutsu, the user manipulates the flow of chakra in the enemies brain, causing disruption in their senses, the user is then able to make the enemy see false images or experience pain from trauma, because the body believes it is real pain.

Genjutsu is created, when the user disturbs the flow of chakra in the opponent's nervous system, hence affecting their senses, making the enemy see, feel or experience a situation which they thought to be real.

Genjutsu can be very helpful in battle, if you attack the mind successfully, the body becomes useless. Genjutsu does that, and besides the trauma or effects caused by genjutsu, it also leave the target open to attacks.
The weakness is range, as it gets more diffcult to cast a genjutsu from a far.

I want to learn it because I want to improve my fighting style."

Your answers were pretty good. Now, before you can begin learning how to mold chakra properly for genjutsu, you must first be able to recognize a few key nerves whose signals you'll be disrupting when you perform genjutsu. So, read over this scroll, and then come back to me with each nerve, what it's in charge of, and what kind of genjutsu may come from manipulating how its signals are interpreted.
•I : Olfactory Nerve
•II : Optic Nerve
•III : Occulomotor Nerve
•IV : Trocheal Nerve
•V : Trigeminal Nerve
•VI : Abducens Nerve
•VII : Facial Nerve
•VIII : Vestibulocochlear Nerve
•IX : Glossopharyngeal Nerve
•X : Vagus Nerve
•XI : Spinal Accessory Nerve
•XII : Hypoglossal Nerve

Sorry I didn't reply for this long, my laptop crashed, I just fixed it today



Olfactory Nerve: The olfactory nerve carries sensory information for the sense of smell, thus is responsible for smell. Manipulating this nerve signal, one could alter what the victims smells/percieves.

: Optic Nerve:The optic nerve, transmits visual information from the retina to the brain, so obviously it's responsible for vision. manipulating it's signals, one could create illusions, causing the victim to see whatever the user wants him to see.

Occulomotor Nerve:The oculomotor nerve controls most of the eye's movements, including constriction of the pupil and maintaining an open eyelid.
Trocheal Nerve:The trochlear nerve is a motor nerve that innervates a single muscle: the superior oblique muscle of the eye.
I feel the two cranial nerve above are to be addressed together, so I'll say that, manipulating this nerve signal results in causing the victim to fall asleep, or to make him blind or at least, bad vision...I may be wrong

Trigeminal Nerve:the trigeminal nerve is a nerve responsible for sensation in the face and certain motor functions such as biting and chewing

Abducens Nerve:The abducens nerve or abducent nerve , controls the movement of a single muscle, the lateral rectus muscle of the eye.
Facial Nerve:The facial nerve controls the muscles of facial expression, and functions in the conveyance of taste sensations from the anterior two-thirds of the tongue and oral cavity. Manipulating the signal makes the user able to alter the users taste bud

Vestibulocochlear Nerve:The vestibulocochlear nerve transmits sound and equilibrium (balance) information from the inner ear to the brain. altering this signal, the user could alter the sound heard by the user, making the victim hear what the user wants him to hear

Glossopharyngeal Nerve:The glossopharyngeal nerve carries afferent sensory and efferent motor information.

Vagus Nerve:Besides output to the various organs in the body, the vagus nerve conveys sensory information about the state of the body's organs to the central nervous system. altering the signal of this nerve, the user is to make the user think they feel something that they do not, or maybe paralyze them

Spinal Accessory Nerve:The spinal accessory nerve provides motor innervation from the central nervous system to two muscles of the neck: the sternocleidomastoid muscle and the trapezius muscle. The sternocleidomastoid muscle tilts and rotates the head, while the trapezius muscle has several actions on the scapula, including shoulder elevation and adduction of the arm.
altering the signal of this one could cause the victim to think they're paralysed/causes paralysis

Hypoglossal Nerve:The hypoglossal nerve controls tongue movements of speech, food manipulation, and swallowing.

Sorry it's been four to five years since I studied biology, and I'm studying engineering now, so I don't remember most of this stuff

Alright, that was... Decent description. Now you learn how to form Genjutsu. When balancing your Yin and Yang energies, your Yin is heavily concentrated on when creating genjutsu. Because of this, you need to have good chakra control to make a good illusion.
Forming a handseal, Tayuya created a storm of sakura petals to appear, her own image disappearing within the illusion.

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.


Don't try to escape; try to mold your chakra until you can feel how chakra which forms a genjutsu feels. It's all about feel; I can't tell you what the sensation is like because it's not something that can be explained! Now focus!


It was good description; I was just in character. :p

"I'll try to be more detailed in my description next time sensei!"
Witnessing tayuya disappearing within the petals, I start molding my chakra, I try to maintain a good control of my chakra while focusing on trying to know how a chakra that forms genjutsu feels like, I focus more on my yin energy...I continue for a few minutes, to maybe a few hours till a start to get the feeling...

After maintaining the illusion for an unnecessary amount of time, Tayuya eventually released the technique and glared down at her student.
Are you ready, punk? Well, we'll see. Why don't you cast an illusion on me... You know how the chakra feels, right? Well, this illusion is a visual one; you'll only affect my optic nerve. Make me think one object looks like another one. That's your task; that's all your task is. It's a simple illusion, and I use it to test my student's abilities. Or, I suppose I would; I don't teach a lot.
Well? What're 'ya waiting for; do it!!

Listening to her, his fear grew "this is one scary woman" he thought "Ye... Yes maam" he said then he started molding his chakra, and focusing on the yin energy, he disrupts the optic nerve signal of Tayuya, making her see the grassland as an arid and dry ground.
"Is that good enough sensei?"

Is it good enough... Illusion is never perfect, and there's always something which can tip a person off about there being something wrong; that their senses aren't to be trusted. This is something that an illusionist must always keep in mind!
Now, aside from that, it would appear as though you were able to change the area... Why don't you explain some of the uses, being as creative as you can as creativity is the illusionists' friend, and some of the drawbacks to this technique, as well as how one would discover that this is genjutsu. And remember, I want drawbacks AND how one would figure it out, meaning they can't be the same answer.

This jutsu is almost ineffective against experienced shinobis, however if used at a right time, it could prove important.
Now I could use it to deceive my opponent, changing the earth in front of him into mud/hole just to make him think for a moment that it's an earth jutsu, to cause a distraction. I could also make him see a large water source, when in reality it's smaller, one could even make the opponent see a wave of water coming at him to crush him, however in both cases the changes in environment are sudden, so an experienced ninja would notice the rapid change in enviroment and thing his eye is playing him. Seeing a water source when there was initially wrong for example and I'd be like where did that come from? So one could use a water jutsu first to confuse the enemy, but still yet it won't be perfect if the target is very observant, he'd see through it, as this is a visual genjutsu, the other senses are not affected, so it can be easily broken.

Ya know? That's not a half-bad explanation, boy. I suppose we can move onto the next technique.
( Magen: Kokoni Arazu no Jutsu ) - Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique
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.
This one's gunna use five handseals; Tiger, Boar, Tiger, Horse, and Ox. After the handseals, yur gunna affect my vision again. Yur gunna wanna make me see yur body dissolve into multiple sakura petals, which then come at me and fill my vision. Remember to know exactly what nerve yur affecting with yur chakra, and then speak to me about ways you could use it, as well as ways it's not that great.

I perform the Tiger, Boar, Tiger, Horse, and Ox handseal, then I begin molding my chakra, focusing on the yin half, then I proceed to target your nerve responsible for sight, I disrupt it causing you to see me dissolve into sakura petals that fill your vision ~

This technique is best used to block the user's vision, or cause a temporary distraction, but better in situations were the user doesn't have much time to react to the technique, however the seals are much, and this does not prevent the enemy from attacking.

With the petals swirling around Tayuya, she simply stood there and blinked for a while, before moving on to address the student.
That would be the optic nerve... Aside from that, the technique was properly executed. As for your explanation, I assume you meant "target" instead of "user"? If you did, then your response was well done. That's not to say "impossible to improve", it just means "done satisfactorily".
( 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 next technique takes place both within the mind of the target, and the real world, affecting both Spiritual and Physical elements of your opponent. First, with a single handseal, you create the image of a clone of yourself by manipulating the optic nerve with your Yin-based "genjutsu chakra". Then, you will throw a kunai with a paper bomb attached to it, or a small ball of explosives with weight to it; anything which can be thrown properly and can explode. After that, as the explosive is traveling through the air, you are to make your clone within the illusion run towards me at the same speed the explosive is moving, blocking the explosive's presence with the illusion. Practice a few times, and then come to me, once again, with some good uses and drawbacks.

“I I'm sorry, I meant targetxD what will I do to impress you anywayo_O

~I mold my chakra, then I perform a single seal, concentrating on my Yin-based chakra, I proceed to manipulate the optic nerve of the target via my Yin-based chakra, creating an illusionary clone, which the user percieves as real initially, the clone starts dashing towards the target while in reality I take kunai tagged with explosive, and toss it towards the target, the illusion conceals the real attack and before the target notices BOOM!! the tag explodes~

Well here's a good one, its very useful, usually when an opponent charges towards his foe, his foe takes a defensive stance, waiting to counter, so I'd use this together with real clones, the real clone would decieve the target, making him, think they're all real, however, the draw back here is that most shinobi goes for a more offensive move, as a way to counter an incoming attack.

Alright, that was looking pretty good.
( Genjutsu: Kasumi ) - Illusion Technique: Servant
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
Now, this technique is very similar to the one you just used, only you create multiple clones. Now, I want you to cause me to see these clones, and then have them attack me. As they attack, I want you to attack in sync with them so that I believe their attacks are real. After that, I'll strike one. Within the illusion, I want to see the one I strike double, becoming two. I also want the uses and drawbacks here, but after you can do all of what I asked; imaginary clones, synced attacks, and multiplication.

I don't really doing performances with genjutsu, the thing is, all it is too me is "insert chakra in this guys head and have him imagine what the genjutsu describes" lol, nah that is way too repetitive. Instead, I like to speak about the genjutsu, and talk about it. Some might be more simplistic, others not as much, with that being said we will continue that way. Also, some gen require some sort of advance physical movements, gen that require that we MIGHT perform it, but it depends on how I'm feeling that day z.z.

Last jutsu I saw dork post Love you dork btw please, explain this a little bit for me, what do you see the purpose of using this technique? Also, you should know this genjutsu is performed with the hand seal being the key part of it.

Oh Thank God!! I'd prefer this type of training in genjutsu, that way I'd gain more I think


This technique basically fools the opponent into thinking he is being charged at by a clone, meanwhile it's actually a paper bomb, and the handseal besides it's primary objective, also fools the opponent that some kind of clone is being performed.

This tech can be used to delay the opponents attack, or change it. Say my clone start charging towards a ninja, he would usually assume a counter attack position, not knowing it was a paper bomb.
It could also be used to distract the opponent from the actual attack.

Now realize something, the clone created is the illusion itself, you should expect the fact that the tag moving at the opponent, moves at a pace similar to the clone. So the moment the clone is close to the opponent, the tag will be as well. The key to deciphering this technique is rather simplistic, you just have to focus on the clone and its movement. Can you give me a clear indication on how you might figure out the genjutsu?

Well, the movement of the clone would be unusual since it would move with the same speed of the tag. Also the illusion is the clone , I'm not sure but I think the illusion doesn't affect the surrounding so one can decipher the technique by observing the movement of the clone, and its interaction with the surroundings, for example I don't think the clone would have a shadow... not sure though
