Souzou Dokubutsu (Poison Creation)​

Just as there are many naturally occurring substances that can be combined in order to heal, there are many naturally occurring substances that can be used to harm. Using your knowledge of plants and minerals you are able to mix together a variety of drugs and poisons that can range from disabling to deadly.

The principle behind it is the same as behind

, with a Poison needing the same components (Active Ingredients & Solvents/Mediums). The only change is that a Medicine is intended to help heal and treat a patient and a Poison is intented to harm him or her.

There are two aspects to consider here:

• Canon Poison techniques and Poisons
  
• Custom Poison creation

The end result of this class is basically allowing enough knowledge on how to correctly use canon poisons and how to create your own poison. More than specifics, as the principles are already explained in the Medicine Creation class, we'll be talking about limits and definition of what you can do and how you can do it for a custom poison.

So, Canon Poison Techniques?

Ok, we will start dissecting all the techniques currently available as well as all canon poisons. One thing to note, however, is that there is a difference between Poison Ninjutsu and a Poison. Poison Ninjutsu or Dokuton/Doku is the ability to shape, mold and transform your chakra into harmful substances that you create and use to attack your enemies. Poisons are substances you create with herbs and other substances, mixing them together, and carry with you to poison your tools, weapons and even taint your usage of Poison Ninjutsu. They are both linked but are different.

Now, Poison Ninjutsu will always create the poison substance defined in the technique. When someone creates a Poison Ninjutsu technique, he or she will create a technique that uses chakra to create a substance that is only used in that technique and has specific effects. This poison cannot poison weapons, tools, anything. Its simply created by the technique to do its job and thats it. Its bound by the technique.

What about Custom Poisons?

As a medical ninja you are given the knowledge and ability to create your own unique poisonous substance by mixing various other substances together. This unique substance can be used to poison weapons, tools, etc. It can't be manipulated with existing canon poison techniques but you can make techniques to manipulate it. You'll always need a small quantity of it with you to use these techniques however, and it needs to be defined and stated in your bio that your weapons are poisoned with the substance.

How do I make a custom Poison?

Well, same way you make a Medicine really. You need active ingredients and a medium/solvent. You mix it together to create a given substance you can then use to poison enemies.

You need to use this template

[B]Name Of Poison[/B]
[B]Creator:[/B]
[B]Type:[/B](neurological, intestinal, cardiac etc.)
[B]Ingredients and Background:[/B]
[B]Description of Effects: [/B]

As such, your poison will need a name. Well, duh! And a creator...You! It will also fall within a given "type". This pertains to what it will actually affect in your enemy. Will it affect his mind and nerves? His muscles? His ionic balance? His coagulation? His breathing? His heart? Etc etc. After that, you need to describe what the ingrdients in it are, what they do and how all of it mixes together to create your poison. You need to define in this section what your poison actually looks like (is it a poweder, a solid, a liquid, a gas, what color is it, etc) and what can affect it and how (will it evaporate under heat? will it become faster acting with cold? etc etc). Finally, we come to the description of Effects. In this section you need to describe a list of effects, from the first one to appear (normally, the mildest symptom/effect comes first) and the progression of effects until the ultimate one, followed by a list which describes how long it takes for a poisoned individual to start feeling each effects (in a timely sequence), depending on how he was poisoned (a liquid for example can poison through skin contact, ingestion or injection but each of these methods will induce the poisoning effects in different timings) and any other information needed in terms of effects and symptoms of the poisoning.

Saisei (Regeneration)​

A healing technique is useless when a portion of a patient's body has been destroyed. Burns from fire or acid, nerve damage from toxin, lung damage from some diseases, all simply can't be healed away because the body has literally no means to correct them. This technique remedies the problem. By using healthy skin, muscle and other tissues, portions of a patient's body can be reconstructed. This technique can correct most forms of damage but requires great effort on the part of the medical nin and in the case of injuries that have gone unhealed for too long, the technique is only partially effective. Some portion of the damaged area must be remaining in order to reconstruct it so it is not possible to reconstruct missing limbs with this technique.

This is done by inhibiting the cell cycle control molecules that impede division in cells, and up-regulating the proteins that promote cell division, this then reforms the tissue from the remaining cells, though doing so carries the risk of pushing the cells beyond their tolerance and as such may caused transcription errors in the DNA and RNA of the cells, so great care and skill is required with this skill

(Iryō Ninjutsu: Saibō no saisei) Medical Technique: Cellular regeneration
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A-Rank
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A (can negate up to 60 points)
Description: The medical ninja forcibly controls the cell cycle of the target tissue, causing rapid proliferation of the cells, thereby regenerating the tissue. This is done by infusing the cells of the target tissue with the users own healing chakra, triggering mitosis and tissue growth. The drawback of this technique is that its not actually a healing technique but a tissue growth technique. It can serve to grow missing tissue but it cannot heal in the truest essence of the word and in essence is a much simpler application of the Mystic Palm technique.

Any questions?

Iryo Fuuinjutsu (Medical Sealing Ninja Techniques)​

As Medical Ninjas, you have various fields in which you can further specialize in, applying the various skills you learned in basic medical training to develop and learn more specific and unique skills. From those, there is one bound to those that have already learned regular sealing techniques. Medical Sealing Ninja Techniques or Iryo Fuuinjutsu. In other words, this is an advanced class in which you'll learn how to improve your usage of sealing techniques via the knowledge of medical arts and how to use sealing arts to improve medical treatment success.

Its recommended that you read the

as most of this class will be set upon the basic stuff thats described there.

So, what exactly changes in regards to how seals work for medical ninjas?

Lets begin by each component of a seal and detail what you can now use seals to do:*

*This refers to the possibilities the skill and knowledge might allow you and not to abilities that are now applicable to all seals. Each seal will abide by what is described in it so a seal that requires a paper tag will still require it, regardless of being used by a medical ninja or a regular ninja. In truth, this knowledge is more important for custom seal crafting than anything.

• The Object/Target of the Seal - This is what you'll seal. As a medical ninja you can now seal the abilities of another ninja, as well as the chakra flow, any and every biological aspect of his fisiology, injuries, organs, body parts and even other more abstract things like fatigue or memories. The possibilities become much broader now that you have mastered how Ninjutsu can be used to affect the ninja body.
• The Medium/Vessel - This is the "thing" in which you'll seal your target. As a medical ninja, what trully changes is that you have enough knowledge of the chakra flow and ninja body to use it as a medium for seals. This means you can place seals in your own body or that of others, not requiring a pre-made medium like a paper tag for example. The seal can then be done "in loco" and doesn't need to be pre-prepared before.
• The Trigger - This is what will activate the sealing technique. The main change here is that you can set a seal to trigger on broader aspects, including biological ones of your target. For example, you can make a seal that will seal off adrenaline production in a ninja in case his supra-renal glands produce more than X amount. Or you can make a seal that will render the target unconscious, sealing his consciousness for X amount of time if he experiences pain above Y level. Also, you become able to place seal on contact without handseals.
• The Binding - Medical ninja or not, this doesn't really change much. The only rule is that you'll always need a kanji formula that can be made with or without handseals or written in a medium or not.
• Chakra - No difference here. As a medical ninja you still need to apply chakra to your seals for them to work. The main thing to take is that you can make auto-suficient seals like the Jinchuriki binding seals. Basically, seals that rely not only on your chakra but that of external sources or even, if place in a living medium, chakra of said medium to be sustained.
• The Key - Only thing here is that you can, like with the trigger, create and setup more elaborate keys for your seals.

In summary, as a medical ninja, you become more adept at using a basic skill in more specialized ways linked to your knowledge of the ninja body, chakra (and its energies), etc while taking advantage of your increased chakra control and precision. Think of it as Water Release and Rain. Water Release is the basic skill of using chakra to manipulate and create water for techniques. Rain is simply an advanced usage of that basic skill that enables control over even atmospheric water, allowing control over Rain and other similar phenomenons. Additionally, Medical Ninjas become able to release, disrupt and cancel stronger seals as they have more knowledge and control over sealing techniques in general. The seals they produce can also have longer ranges, require less handseals and be of higher strength.

Ok, so we can seal more stuff in more complex ways. What about empowerment seals?

Empowerment seals are seals made to empower you and your abilities. They can be done in various ways. Its a special usage of seals where there are many things you can do but you always need to adhere to the rule that a seal serves the purpose of sealing and unsealing something and if it is to empower you, that needs to be how it works. For example, Tsunade and Sakura have a seal that empowers them by sealing chakra through long periods of time, releasing it only when they need more power and empowering them as a result.

This seems more and more like a field for combat and custom making...

In a way, it is. However, its also through this field you gain access to the various medical sealing techniques you can find

and which we will discuss in detail, one by one.
