Example Techniques:
(Asclepius no sutaffu: Ichigekimi) - Staff of Asclepius: One blow Body
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: short
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: Using a staff or spear as a medium the user will strike with their weapon upon the point of impact releasing a simple burst of chakra, with enough power to blast the opponent back. With the byakugan activated the user can use this to strike a specific point, closing the targets chakra points at those locations. This can be released through part of the staff or the whole staff. Due to the precise chakra control of the Hyūga clan, this can be used to strike a specific weak point in a technique to cause it to break as the burst of chakra is released through it.
(Asclepius no sutaffu: Erumesu shūgeki ) - Staff of Asclepius: Hermes assault
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: short
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: This is an adaptation to the trigrams palm strikes aimed to strike several chakra points. Instead of using the users hands, the user will rapidly trust their staff forwards with consecutive strikes, releasing bursts of chakra, hitting 64 chakra points of the opponents. Each successful strike halts the flow of chakra that ordinarily passes through the given tenketsu and makes chakra control a much harder endeavour. The recipient of this move will be rendered unable to user more than 35 chakra in individual attacks, which includes those with applied passives, for two turns. Beyond that effect, the usage of this manoeuvre will reduce the victim's chakra supply and any accumulated senjutsu chakra by 25% for four turns.
Additional effects and Restrictions:
- Must be a Hyūga with mastery over gentle fist and byakugan.
- Through years of training, those who specialise this style would have mastered their chakra control needed in using gentle fist techniques through a medium such as a staff with such precision. Due to this level of mastery, those who specialise in this style would gain a +1 rank (20 damage) bonus to their Gentle Fist techniques that are not used through a medium, as they would use the same level of enhanced control but without the need of exerting it through the staff.

[Asclepius no sutaffu | Saisho no fōmu Bāsuto] - Staff of Asclepius: First form, Burst
Type: Offensive/ Defensive/ Supplementary
Rank: D-Rank
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra: 10
Damage: 20
Description: This is the most basic form of the Staff arts akin to the "Drunken Fist" style, using body flow along with the staff and Hyūga teachings for exaggerate movements to increase their basic close combat fighting style while releasing small bursts of Chakra to increase their speed and power. The staff is an extension of the users increasing their reach as well as being close to them for effective combat, keeping the opponent right where the user wants them. These basic arts take several basic forms, enhanced with minimal Chakra but still deadly.
The first form of this, is swinging the staff, rolling it around the users body, to build momentum, to add to striking power, without having to make large movements, while releasing a burst of Chakra from the right part of the staff to increase the speed and power of the movement, through the teachings of the Gentle Fist style. With a quick swing of their arm the user could roll the staff around their back, while releasing a burst of Chakra from the right points to speed it up, coming around form the other side using the momentum from the roll for a crushing strikes.
The second form of this basic style is large swings, using the length of the staff to their advantage to do ranged leg sweeps infused with Chakra, this allows the user to keep their target at a range while still attacking them, though as they do these movements, they will release a burst of Chakra from behind the staff, propelling it's movement at double the speed the user would normally move, making it harder to evade while increasing the damage.
The third unique form of this style is one where the user will use the length of their staff, to elaborate on a basic moment to avoid attacks or enhance attacks. What is meant by this is the user could thrust the base of their staff into the ground, while releasing a burst of Chakra from this point to push themselves up into the air, like a pole jump, to avoid incoming projectiles (within logic, due to the staff being 1.5m the user it would have to be like small fire balls and such or focused projectiles) due to the burst increasing the push, they will be be able to go as high as 15m into the air, or even a cartwheel going sideways but instead of placing the users hands on the ground they could place the staff to make a "larger movement" moving up to 15m at a time while releasing bursts of Chakra from their body and staff to increase the rotation of the cartwheel movement to avoid or strike. This can be used offensively, using the cartwheel motion to bring down an enhanced kick with the momentum behind it. The entire style uses the staff itself as part of the user, an extension of them selves to increase their combat potential, making use of the length of the staff while enhancing it's power with the bursts of Chakra akin to the gentle fist fighting style.

Type: Attack/Defense/Supplementary
Rank: A/S
Range: Short - mid
Chakra: 30/40
Damage: 60/80
Description: Using the basis of the second form, the user will release a surge of chakra through their staff and being to rapidly spin it in front of them, this can be done with one or both hands, and by skilled shinobi can be done above/behind/to the side of themselves. As they spin, the staff will release the chakra outwards forming a circle shield of chakra taking the full size of the staff, as can be seen in the gif below. The chakra released will be like a focused chakra in the spin, that retains a shield shape through precise chakra control to create a shield. The chakra being releasing in bursts from the staff as it rotates, speeds up the staffs rotation to the point of looking like a propeller creating a defensive shield that is 2m wide. The other method to this is the user can release chakra into the staff, and cause the staff to rapidly rotate by itself, on the spot releasing the chakra infused out from all points of the staff to mimic the hyuuga's defensive rotation, releasing the chakra 1m around the staff. This will act in the same manor as the cannon technique, both forms playing on equal terms with elements, and creating at 360 degree defense around the staff. In the second form, the user can use this to enhance a strike, striking while rotating the staff while releasing chakra around it for a drilling destructive force.
Note: A rank can be used 4 times per battle with one turn between uses.
Note: S rank can be used 3x per battle, requires both hands for control, with one turn cooldown (shared with the A rank version) and no jutsu above A rank in the following turn that require gentle fist or similar abilities like the staffs style.
[Asclepius no sutaffu | Dai 3 no Keishiki, Sutoraiki] - Staff of Asclepius: Third form, Strike
Type: Offensive/ Defensive/ Supplementary
Rank: A-Rank/ S-Rank
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra: 30/ 40
Damage: 60/ 80
Description: This third form is based on the Hyuuga teachings of striking a specific point in a technique with a burst of Chakra to disrupt the Jutsu itself, causing it to fail, much like the
"Gentle Fist: One Blow Body" technique. It can be used on a technique of Shinobi, depending on how the user decides. The user will swing their staff around or thrust or which ever motion needed for the strike, while focusing their Chakra through to the point of impact where the Chakra will burst outwards that pushes forwards up to 10 meters through a Jutsu, disrupting it's flow, working on Jutsu the same rank, or lower. If used on a lower ranked Jutsu the wave will continue forwards as a burst of pushing Chakra. If used directly on an opponent the burst of Chakra can be used with pin point accuracy to hit Chakra Points or even one of the 8 Inner Gates. In doing this the Chakra Point/ Gate will be closed, limiting the target to A rank and below Jutsu for one turn. To use the S-Rank variant, the user will follow the same process, but as they are about to connect, they will release a burst of Chakra from the back of the staff at the same time to increase it's driving force and speed increasing the power of the initial strike.
Note: A-Rank can be used 3 times per battle, while S-Rank can be used 2 times per battle. Both require a 1 turn cool down between uses, and the S-Rank requires both hands for control, and no Jutsu above A rank in the following turn that require Gentle Fist or similar abilities like the staffs style.
( Asclepius no Sutaffu: Shintou ) - Staff of Asclepius: Impact
Type: Offensive/ Defensive/ Supplementary
Rank: S
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: 80
Description: Impact is one of the style's strongest techniques, in which the user holds their staff in either hand, channelling a mass of chakra into it while using advanced shape manipulation simultaneously. Through shape manipulation, the chakra takes a physical form, similar to the "Twin Lion's Fist" technique, but it takes the form of an animal from the user's summoning contract around the staff. For example, if the user has the snake contract, it would take on the shape of the snake, resembling an ethereal beast. The user can then use this in one of two ways: thrusting their staff forward with either hand and releasing a burst of chakra from the base, or drawing the staff back and throwing it up to long range at rapid speeds, releasing a burst of chakra from the base. On impact, the beast would expand rapidly in all directions and affect everything within a 7m radius, causing blunt force damage. The user can also use this as a focused strike by not increasing its size, leaving it with a diameter of 20 cm to cause piercing damage to an opponent or jutsu, which would break apart upon being struck. Because of the shape manipulation applied to the chakra, this would be on equal footing with Elemental Ninjutsu.
Note: Usable three times per battle with two turns between uses.
Note: No Staff of Asclepius jutsu above A rank in the following turn.
( Asclepius no Sutaffu: Shuraudo ) - Staff of Asclepius: Shroud
Type: Supplementary
Rank: B
Range: Short
Chakra: 20
Damage: N/A ( +20 )
Description: This is an enhancement technique based on the "Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists" jutsu. The user will channel chakra through their staff, forming a serpentine dragon shroud around it and coating it in chakra scales, with the tip of the staff resembling the dragon's head. This technique can be used in the same timeframe as other Staff of Asclepius techniques, enhancing them in the process. While the staff is being enhanced in this manner, the user's staff techniques and Staff of Asclepius jutsu will have their power increased by one rank, or twenty damage points.
Note: Usable twice per battle with two turns between uses, and each use lasting four turns.
