Rank: B
Range: N/A
Chakra Cost: N/A (+5 chakra to affected techniques)
Damage Points: N/A
Description The second ability is symbolic of "his malice" and acts as a testament to the tortured mockeries of human beings he created in life through grotesque experimentation. The user activates an innate ability of his that affects his earth techniques for the next four turns. It makes it so sentient creations constructed from Earth Release can be made with additional features, body parts or limbs such as wings capable of flight or prehensile tails. The added features can be anything from conventional limbs such arms and legs or they can be body parts exhibited by animals/summons such as horns, claws, tentacles, tendrils, spiked protrusions, scales and so on. The size of these added features will be proportional to the size of the sentient creation. The extra bodily enhancements can be made from solid rock or they can be made purely from sticky mud. Tentacles, tendrils and any structures which aren't rigid/sturdy by nature must be constructed from mud rather than solid rock. If more than one creature is created, then every creature will be made with the added feature. Activating and applying this ability to techniques is instant and does not consume any time whatsoever. The reason this ability's activation is instant is because stand alone it does not do anything and its effects are only realized when the user utilizes another jutsu.
Note: Lasts for four turns
Note: Can only be used twice per battle
Note: Only two of this set of techniques can be active at any given time (Shackles of Servitude, Awakening of Avarice and Conquest of Creation).

Description: The third and final ability is symbolic of "his will to dominate all life" and acts as a testament to the hordes of "living weapons" he assembled in life. This ability makes it so every earth technique the user uses becomes a "sentient creation" (much like the Stone Golems or the Earth Dragon). Now with most techniques, this added sentience doesn't really provide anything due to their structure e.g. Rock Scale Slab will just remain a cuboid slab of rock incapable of doing anything more. However, combining this ability with Awakening of Avarice will make it so the earthen creation will develop limbs/body parts, granting it the capability to move around and act on its own. For example a slab of rock can grow arms and legs, dropping lid can grow writhing tendrils, destructive rising rock pillars can grow smaller thorn-like spikes from the main body of the spiked pillars, etc. Through mental commands alone, the user can freely govern the actions of their earth techniques. Activating and applying this ability to techniques is instant and does not consume any time whatsoever. The reason this ability's activation is instant is because stand alone it does not do anything and its effects are only realized when the user utilizes another jutsu. Sentient creations (such as the Stone Golems) used while this is active are maintained passively rather than actively for this jutsu's duration.
Note: Lasts for four turns
Note: Can only be used twice per battle
Note: Sentience lasts as long as this technique is active
Note: Only two of this set of techniques can be active at any given time (Shackles of Servitude, Awakening of Avarice and Conquest of Creation).
The first creates additional limbs and body parts for sentient creations, the other makes every earth technique a sentient creation (allowing it to be maintained for four turns).
Of the three techniques, Awakening of Avarice is best used with either Shackles or Conquest (since both of them maintain earth techniques for four turns).
