Hey, Zaph. :D
Let's get started, shall we?

Basics first! To which bios did you choose to add Ink too, and why? Also, how do you plan on using this amazing art during battle?

Ink will be on my Arima Kishou biography. Why? Well it's a very unique field, one that is ripe with potential and I'd like to be a pioneer in it. In terms of character relevancy, Ink would exactly fit Arima but with the plans I have such as creating these angelic beings called Seraph to tie in with his whole "Angel of Death" thing he got going on, it'll eventually stick to him. Know what I mean? :p

In battle now, although I don't see any concrete rulings of the S/W of Sumi Ninjutsu I guess we can treat it as regular ninjutsu, weak to elemental Nin? Regardless of this, I won't be using it for head on attacks, that'd be almost as weak as using Fuuinjutsu to make frontal attacks. These sort of abilities are supplementary in nature with a few occasional offensive tweaks. As such Ink Nin will be something to stitch my combos together (especially with Fuin) whether as starters, inbetweeners, or enders. I'm also very anxious to try out the whole, "I create whatever I draw" thing in battle. I mean, if that doesn't make for some interesting moves I don't know what does.

Hmm, I'll have to look into your bios at some point. I really do like how you've set everything up though. Very nice avatar and signature, it's a pleasure to read and look at and I'm sure your characters are the same.

As for S/W of Ink. I'm in the process of discussing it with Chris currently. After like five minutes, we have come to the conclusion that Ink is weak to Water and strong against Fire. Nothing more to add to your explanation, I really do like how you talked about "being able to create anything you want." That's one thing that a lot of people miss out when it comes to creative constructs such as ink. As I am a writer, personally, a blank piece of paper is the same to an author and an artist. It presents itself as a world of infinite possibilities and I'm glad you see that. :D

Now, I'd like you take upon your scroll and your paintbrush. Get some ink onto it and then infuse it with chakra as you draw a perfect replica of yourself onto the scroll. One Zaphkiel is never enough!

You really should, I sacrificed many a virgin souls for those bios ._.

Weak to water and strong to fire is reasonable indeed. However, I did see Sai use his Ink Bat as an umbrella for Sakura once in the rain and it seemed fine. He also has little messenger Ink Fishes that swim too, so I'm not sure of the nuances there.

Moving on though! Brandishing my brand spanking new scroll roll and a brush I immediately got to work drawing the most handsome being on the planet. Due to the skill of painting lightning fast I was done in a relatively small time frame, and in the end a 7ft tall demi-god replica of myself (complete with 16 packs and the perfect physique) stepped forth spot on copy of me got out of the scroll wearing my bewildered face.

Lemme guess, this is the generic Ink Clone technique?

Apologies for the late response. I'll try and make it at least daily. Craptop for the win. And virgin souls?! How could you! LOL.

Well, I think Water without force behind it should be alright for Ink. But, of course, through common sense, pressurized water is often strong enough to wash away most things.

Man, you want to teach me some of those art skills? ;; (I just got a Surface Pro 4 and I need to start practicing.) 16 packs?! I'm not sure what to think of that. LMAO. Do they circulate all around your body?

This is indeed the Ink Clone technique! So, this works a lot like any regular elemental clone, except there's one catch to it! It has actual substance and mass, so it makes it a lot harder for inexperienced Doujutsu users to realize that you are in fact using a clone! Also, it's C-Rank, but it can use up to A-Rank Ninjutsu, how awesome is that?
Following technique learned:
( Sumi Bunshin ) - Ink Clone
Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user creates a clone made of ink that takes the appearance of the user. This clone can only use Ink Ninjutsu up to A rank.
Alright, it is now time to put on your Sai hat and CREATE SOME ART! Channel your inner creativity and create up to five animals, be it hawk, snake, pigs, or cockroaches, and make it do different things! I don't really care what you do with the five animals, just make sure that at least one of them is strong enough to carry you into the sky like superman.

Yo, I've always wanted one of those artsy tablet thingies. I wonder how much they cost, might save toward one. And yea, pressurized water really stomps most other elements much less flimsy ink indeed.

"CREATE SOME ART"

Brandishing my new Longo Stroko paint brush I unravelled a scroll long enough write an epistle and get to work. Cats, rabbits, tigers, dragons, rats, bears, snakes, dogs, lizards, lions, crows, spiders, snails, monkeys.

The entire animal kingdom. But since you said five the others sort of stand in the background until they were needed. In the meantime, my tiger, pig, cow, and snake charged at you while I ascended into the heavens on a winged aardvark hawk, getting ready to strike when you least expected it.

Well, mine happened to have a student discount. But I still spent almost 850 USD on it, so that's quite a chunk of money. But it's still technically "free" for me thanks to scholarships. xD I've been using it mostly at school for note taking and NB.

Longo Stroko paint brush, haha.

Tiger. Pig. Cow. Snake. Hmm. WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY SIMPLY CHARGE AT ME? A tiger roars, a pig snorts, a cow moos, and a snake hisses! WHAT DO THEY DURING A FIGHT? WHAT CAN THEY DO INDIVIDUALLY?! Also, we're not Noah and boarding an ark any time soon, WHY DO YOU HAVE THE WHOLE ANIMAL KINGDOM AT YOUR DISPOSAL?!

I'll give you another chance with this next scroll! You can now only choose three animals, but they can be up to 15 meters in length. NOW, IMAGINE THIS. THREE ****ING ELEPHANTS ROAMING THE BATTLEFIELD, WELCOME TO JURASSIC PARK!

Following technique learned:
( Ninpou: Choujuu Giga ) - Ninja Art Beast Imitation
Type:Supplementary/Offensive
Rank: C
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user uses his Ink to draw several animals that can attack, bind, and allow the user to fly. These animals can range from variety but cannot exceed 5 meters in size.
Note: Creates up to 5 animals.
