This may be similar to my way of teaching dark release, but here goes. Thank you for being my first steel student. ^^

0. What is Steel release in your own words.
1. Why do you want to learn Steel release?
2. What are the two elements that make up Steel release.
3. Who is the ninja who uses our Steel?

As much detail as you can.

0. Steel release or kōton is a rare KG that originates from Iwagakure. it's making sheets or tools of black colored steel by using the Kōton and emerging it from the user's body or ground sources.

1. because steel release is Rare KG which is rarely seen used in the RP, also Kōton is one of Toph's abilities in the cartoon which will make RPing as her better and more exciting.

2. Kōton chakra is mixture of Katon chakra and Doton chakra, the same 2 elements of Lava release but Kōton uses the Doton chakra as an element and the Katon chakra as the manipulation to turn the earth chakra into steel chakra

3. Hiroku who stole it from a Iwa ninja using the Chimera Technique and he was shown using only 1 Kōton jutsu

0. Well done, short and sweet.
1. Nice, good.
2. Correct.
3. Yes, Hiruko is the one who uses it, he used it via the Chimera Technique, to change his chakra type to Steel, Dark, Swift and Storm.

Now, can you tell me what steel release is strong and weak against?

Kōton is:
  • strong against water and earth since it is much denser than them
  • Neutral against fire and air
  • Weak against Lightning since it can cut throw it

Good, good. You've been doing your homework.

Now I want you to sit down and start to focus your katon chakra in one hand, and your doton chakra in the other. Then slowly mix them together to make a small amount of steel chakra then we will move from there.

Detail is the key, explain to me how you're mixing your chakra's together and how it makes you feel. Go.

I sit down and take a deep breath. I start gathering my Doton chakra in my right hand and gathering Katon chakra in my left hand with the ratio 3 : 1. as I felt that I've gathered enough amount of both chakra natures I clap my hands together
I move half of the gathered Doton chakra to my left hand while moving half of my katon chakra towards my right hand
I start moving the Katon chakra inside my hands while mixing it with the Doton chakra but using it to manipulate the nature of the Doton chakra. after a lot of mixing I completely turn the Doton chakra through manipulating it with Katon chakra into Kōton chakra

before mixing the chakra I felt that my right hand is heavy and hard while my left hand is very hot but during mixing the chakra my left hand started to cool gradually while my right hand was getting heavier and harder

Is that ok, Sensei?

Okay that was great, time to start the techniques. [Thank Scorps for the new techniques!]

The following template is what I want you to fill out with every technique that I show you.

[B]How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):[/B][/CODE]
(Kōton no Jutsu ) Steel Release Technique
Rank: D
Type: Offensive/Defensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: Allows the user to, through the use of hand gestures, produce small objects, pillars, weapons, etc, made of black steel, from their body or from the earth. The constructs are as hard as a normal kunai and swords and can be thrown at a target physically.

As you tell by now. There has been only one technique that has been shown in the anime; so Scorps thought it would be a good idea to expand an underused KG, which is awesome. Anyway; similar to Earth release technique. Pretty much the same thing apart from the swords and kunai that can be throw or used for hand to sword combat, and the hand gestures part, that also differs from the earth one.

One/three advantages:
  • 1. can be used to make more ninja tools once I run out of shurikens and kunais
  • 2. my imagination is the usage limit of this jutsu, just as Doton no Jutsu
  • 3. can reach up to mid range
One/three disadvantages:
  • 1. very weak jutsu
How you would use it in battle:
by making 4 pillars of steel that surround the opponent while I make the fourth one, which is full of spikes, emerge under him
How you would counter it:
a sensor or doujutsu user can easily predict this jutsu coming so he can evade from the attacks and other ninjas can use lightning chakra-infused swords/kunais to cut throw it
How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):
I start gathering my Doton and Katon chakra and by mixing them I make Kōton chakra to gather under the opponent, once I felt that I've gathered enough amount of Kōton chakra I release it and I use shape manipulation to shape it as a small spiked pillar made of black colored steel

Well you could also do the same as earth version and while running and create a flat pillar to give you a boost up into the air.
But well done.

(Kōton: Toami) Steel Release: Fish Net
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After 1 handseal (Bird), the user is able to produce a black steel net from his/her hands, which can be thrown towards the opponent to pin him to the ground.

Okay so perform the single seal, your steel chakra will produce a black steel net thing from your hands, use it on my clone that is near you, this technique is good since it can pin and trap them to the ground, and you can follow up with another attack, the range is a little iffy but then most battles are from mid-range.

One/three advantages:
  • 1. can be used to prevent the opponent from moving
  • 2. can reach up to mid range
  • 3. requires using only one handseal making its performance fast
One/three disadvantages:
  • 1. a raiton user can easily cut the net by conducting his raiton chakra through a sword
How you would use it in battle:
after I perform the bird handseal I shot a net made of thick steel strings out of my hands and I throw it towards your clone. while the net was in short range I released a wave of lightning at it to electrocute it and shock your clone once he's trapped in it
jutsu used:

(Raiton: Jibashi) - Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder
Rank: C
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30 (+5 if used in conjunction with a water jutsu)
Description: This jutsu allows the user to create a wave of electricity from the user's hands. This jutsu can vary in power from a small surge to shock an opponent to a powerful stream of lightning capable of ripping through solid rock. It is ideal to use in conjunction with a water jutsu.
How you would counter it:
if I had my Ameyuri Ringo bio cutting it the net using Kiba's enhanced cutting abilities will be the easiest thing to.
any other shinobi can use an C-Ranked fuuton jutsu to stop the net from proceeding or stronger fuuton jutsu to throw the net back towards the user of the jutsu
How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):
I start gathering my Doton chakra in my Right hand while gathering Katon chakra in my left hand and once I perform the bird handseal I mix the two chakra natures together making Kōton chakra and I release it throughout my hands. by using shape manipulation I shape the released Kōton chakra as net made of thick black steel strings with extra wights made of steel at the edges and I throw it towards your clone. due to the weights at the edges your clone was unable to go out of the net till you made him disappear

Well done. I don't think I need to add anymore.

(Kōton: Kase) Steel Release: Shackles
Rank: C
Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user does 2 handseals (Bird+Ram) focusing chakra beneath the opponent, shaping the ground into several (up to 5) shackles that shoot up to grab the enemy. The shackles are linked to chains that remain connected to the ground. Once they grab the opponent, the user can clap his hands, forcefully pulling the shackles and chains to the ground, effectively pinning the opponent to the ground, restrained by the steel chains.

Again, just perform the required seals. Start focusing your steel chakra below my clone; and by using shape manipulation on the said ground below create up to five black steel shackles that will grab hold of him and keep him in place, so if you chose to create five, two can on on his legs, two on his arms and one around his neck, but it's all up to the user. You can then clap your hands causing the shackles to pull back forcefully that are attached to chains and ceasing all movement in my clone, so you can use another attack similar in a way to the net.

One/three advantages:
  • 1. completely preventing the opponent from moving
  • 2.if the shackles are used to grab the opponent's hands he can't perform handseals
  • 3.pinning the opponent to the ground will leave the target open for all kinds of attacking
  • 4. requires performing 2 handseals only which makes this jutsu a fast one
One/three disadvantages:
N/A
How you would use it in battle:
after performing the Bird → Ram handseals I make 5 shackles raise from the ground under your clone and grab his 4 limbs and neck. after this I clap my hands and make the chains connecting the shackles to the ground pull the clone downwards, pinning him into the ground and once he was pinned like this I quickly jump high upwards over him while performing the Horse → Tiger and spit a meteor-sized fireball at him and it exploded violently once it hit him

( Katon: Gōenkyū ) - Fire Release: Great Blaze Ball
Rank: B
Type: Offense
Range: Short/Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user after performing two hand seals Horse → Tiger exhales a meteor-sized sphere of fire that carries the enemy away and causes a massive explosion on impact.
if I'm fighting a Hozuki bio I should electrocute the shackles quickly before pinning him into the ground
How you would counter it:
A hozuki bio can easily escape out of the shackles using the Hydrification jutsu and a normal shinobi can turn his body into water and flow away from the shackles and chains

(Suiton: Mizu Kawarimi) - Water Style: Water Replacement
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user can freely transform his body into liquid. This form allows him to avoid taking direct damage from many physical attacks but can not attack while in this form.
How you perform it (with as much detail as you can):

I start gathering Doton chakra in my right hand while gathering Katon chakra in the left one and I perform the Bird → Ram handseals. once I performed the Bird handseals I mixed the Katon and Doton chakra making Kōton chakra and I quickly send the Kōton chakra in the ground beneath your clone and I release it. by using shape manipulation I shape it as 5 shackles connected to the ground with chains and the shackles grab his 4 limbs and neck. I quickly clap my hands and I use the Kōton chakra to shorten the chains to pull the shackles into the ground to pin the clone into the ground

Your counters are pretty much your disadvantages in themselves.

Okay now. Since we are heading towards the B-ranks, I would like you to think of a combo steel/earth and fire techniques and aim it towards my clone.
Think as this as a pop test. Go!

Description: After 2 handseals (Bird+Tiger), the user is able to shot out up to a dozen metal bullets from his/her body. They move as fast as arrows and can be shot in a radial manner or a focused manner, from any part of the body the user intends to.

Perform the two seals, start focusing your steel chakra all around your body, and use shape manipulation to turn the chakra into steel bullets, that you will shoot towards my clone, you can shoot up to 12, and you can shoot them all at once, or in a more focused movement, aiming for different body parts. Neat technique, range is great.

Well done, good.

(Kōton: Kasui Sanran) Steel Release: Spike Spawn
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: After 1 handseal (Horse), the user is able to make a great number of black steel spikes rise up from a point in the ground within range. These spikes are very sharp and may be as big long as 2 meters.

Okay with this one, perform the seal, this technique allows you to create a big number of steel spikes that rise from the ground, this technique of course will only go up to the range it says, which makes it limited, but the size of each spike is good, and the fact that this technique doesn't say how many a great number is, it could be anything.

'Tis fine, thanks for letting me know.

Well, it doesn't say. But one would think so, and oh no more "won't affect a hozuki" as a con, please.

(Kōton: Jairu Hausu Rokku ) Steel Release: Jail House Rock
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: After 3 handseals (Boar+Horse+Tiger), the user will use his chakra to forcefully make a large collection of metal rods to rise from the ground within range. The rods will form a prison around the target, connecting to each other beneath the ground. As soon as all the pillars have risen, which is very fast, their extremities spawn more pillars as well as their sides. As the pillars multiply, they connect to each other, forming an almost perfect prison cell, closed on all sides.

So, I like the name of this one. With this one it creates a prison cell, an almost perfect one of that. I want you to perform the three required seals, and then focus your steel chakra into the ground around my clone in a square shape. As soon as you have completed that, I want you to use shape manipulation on the chakra to create steel rods that rise from the earth and a square shape, and connecting to each other, then rise some pillars from the ground in the same shape; this pillars rise fast, in short the pillars all around my clone will connect and create a prison cell to trap your target in there, could be used with a fire technique, bake them or something along those lines.
