The word Kagune in itself means "Shining Child" and is not as lovely as the name suggests. After years of dominating minor clans the Kureimoa turned to their eternal rivals; Jugo's Clan, and began ingesting their flesh, unknowingly metabolizing the chakra, which lead to their bodies ultimately turning this strange chakra and flesh into a small, cancerous growth which was later known as the "Kagune Sac". This strange piece of flesh positioned itself along the Kureimoa's spine and rested there, connecting itself to his/her nervous and chakra system like a parasite. By connecting to such a vital area on the body the Kureimoa are able to control and "flex" this Kagune sac like they would with any normal muscle. However, flexing this muscle is where this get interesting. With mental commands and a supply of chakra, the Kureimoa is able to draw the Kagune from their body and have it take form around him kind of like a liquid muscle. Kagunes are red-blackish in color coming from the color of the blood within it as well as the Kurochi surrounding it. The Kagune, when manifested, acts like another limb to the user and can be used as such with the durability of an A ranked technique which can play on par with Elemental Ninjutsu of the same rank. And just like their hosts, the Kureimoa, the Kagune is able to regenerate--albeit at a slower and more inferior rate considering it isn't exactly their own flesh. Each time the Kagune is called upon it tears through the skin quite forcefully which often times sends blood and pieces of flesh scattering from the Kureimoa's body. But, with their aforementioned healing factor this becomes negligable as the damage is healed almost as quickly as it was made. Being an organ, the Kagune can be commanded as easily as any other limb. Kurochi also covers and infuses the Kagune in various ways depending on the form taken. The Kagune and Kurochi each have A-ranked power, allowing the weapon in its entirety S-ranked durability. It seamlessly and passively regenerates from attacks A-Rank and below. This regeneration also extends to attacks above A-Rank but is more limited in use. Attacks stronger than S-Rank will shatter the Kagune but it can regenerate once from a Forbidden ranked attack and twice from an S ranked attack.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">As previously stated, Kagune has 4 main forms, each one corresponding to the location it is projecting out of the Claymore's body, with their own unique usages, advantages and disadvantages. The location where the Kagune will project itself out of will be necessary to give it the shape needed. Its form can be changed but doing so forces the organ back inside the body, where it will relocate after one turn, and re-emerge (doing so cannot bypass any existing cool downs and counts as a re-activation). The color of each Kagune may vary per Claymore as well as unique variations (to be submitted as PCCJ). The Kagune can be activated passively once per fight/conflict, four times overall, with a four turn cool down each time it is deactivated. Lasts as long as the Claymore keeps paying health.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">(Ukaku || 羽赫) Shining Feather</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The first type of the Kagune which grows in the cervical vertebrae. When activated, the organ bursts from the Claymore's back as a pair of wings. Each wing has a bony support structure running its edges while Kurochi forms a thin membrane in between. This allows the Claymore a limited form of flight and gliding, which can be used to travel up to Mid-range at their base speed. The Claymore also gains he user gains a projectile offensive mechanism, where the Kagune is able to release kunai sized shards of Kurochi to 10 meters (Mid-range). These shards are A-Rank in power and cannot be done while in flight. This ability has a two turn cool down.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">(Kōkaku || 甲赫) Shining Shell</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The second type is activated upon having the organ grow or move to the thoracic vertebrae. In this form the Kagune forms an outer shell over the Claymore's arm that behaves like a sword or cleaver. Kurochi flares around the Kagune in this form and can allow it pierce or slice through techniques up to S-rank. The Kōkaku form can only reach up to 3 meters of the Claymore but can be operated in close range at the speed of the average Samurai due to its small form and lightweight material. The Kurochi enhancement can only be done once every two turns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">(Rinkaku || 鱗赫) Shining Scales</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The third type is created with the growing or moving of the organ in the Lumbar vertebrae which gives the user the ability to call forth tentacles from the spine, up to 4 in number or just one (four B-ranks or one A-rank). Kurochi infuses the Kagune in this form, allowing it to devour anything it touches. For techniques lower in power than the Rinkaku, can be devoured whilst attacking to supply the Claymore (through Primeval Gluttony CCJ). The ability to devour and return chakra can only be activated once every two turns after which the Rinkaku will still function as an offensive weapon. The Rinkaku is also the second Kagune form that can reach up to 10 meters when attacking (Mid ranged).</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">(Bikaku || 尾赫) Shining Tail</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The last kind, which is created from having the organ move to the sacrum, will project itself out from the skin in form of a flexible tail. Being made of almost entirely muscle, the Bikaku swings with enough strength to break bones and send tremors through the ground. With the added Kurochi outer layer, it is an S-ranked weapon, capable of dealing serious damage. It can also be used to cover the Claymore's leg instead, for added Taijutsu damage (+20 to leg based Tai). Once activated the ability lasts two turns, with a two turn cool down. The Bikaku can only reach up to four meters of the Claymore's body.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Must be at least Ghoul rank to possess.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Choosing to have a Kagune prevents the Claymore from utilizing any other CW's and must be mentioned in the biography.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Genshi Ōkui <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> Primeval Gluttony</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Type: Supplementary/Offensive</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Rank: N/A</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Range: Short</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chakra Cost: (+200 chakra per limb/+300 torso and head)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Damage: N/A</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Description: The basis of the Kureimoas' lust for flesh is firmly rooted in their curse of perpetual hunger. Despite this never ending agony, they are capable of feeding ever so often and being satisfied even if for for a moment. Through feeding, a Kureimoa gains a slight euphoria, like someone eating their favorite food prepared just perfectly, along with the pent up chakra stored within the flesh of their victims. This chakra can be ingested by the Kureimoa and added to their own chakra reserves or use it to fuel various chakra intensive techniques of the clan such as healing. The human body is divided into four (4) sections when being the main course of a Kureimoa's meal; both hands, feet, and the head as well as torso. Consuming the limbs will give 200 points of chakra while the torso and head will yield 300 chakra and are able to be harvested by the Kureimoa clansman through feeding. When added up this means every person consumed by the Kureimoa provides 1000 chakra However their Hunger doesn't end there, Claymores also possess a hunger for knowledge where they are able to access the thoughts, sentiments, memories, or even emptions of their victims through consumption--even if the target is dead. With their ability to digest almost all forms of chakra (such as neutral, elemental, Raw Senjutsu, as well as Bijuu chakra) they are able to devour not just flesh but actual energies when presented the opportunity. This chakra eating habit can only apply to raw, unmolded chakra and not actual techniques. Meaning, they must wait until said technique has been broken down to a point where it becomes simply raw, un-molded chakra. Whenever Kurochi overpowers an opponent's technique and the physical and chakra properties of said technique have been degraded, the Claymores are able to harvest that lingering, unmolded chakra through either eating it manually or using the Kurochi as a proxy to take it into their bodies. When metabolizing the raw chakra of a deteriorated technique a Kureimoa gains 50% of the cost of said technique as chakra to their reserves. This means, an A ranked technique (30/60) reduced to chakra or a simple burst of raw chakra gives the Kureimoa only 15 chakra should it be eaten/absorbed. Accessing sentiments and absorbing lingering chakra has no cool down nor does it take a move-slot of the three allotted (this technique will still need to be referenced however).</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: These chakra increases count as Bonus chakra should it reach the Kureimoa chakra cap, allowing it to increase their chakra beyond their normal limits.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Must be of at least Ghoul rank to perform.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Can only be performed every 5 turns whether in part (eating only a few limbs) or in full (eating an entire body).</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Limb consumption can be done in the Ninja World but consuming the torso or head of a target requires both to agree to permanent damage and death. Limbs consumed will remain gone for that arc only, never permanent.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Can also be performed through the Kagune organ or Kurochi constructs.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Kagirinai no Sonzai <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> Life Eternal</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Type: Supplementary</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Rank: N/A</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Range: Short</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chakra Cost: 30 - 300</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Damage: N/A</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Description: The second half to the Kureimoas' creed to survival, Kagirinai no Sonzai is based on their ability to heal from wounds without the use of medical ninjutsu or machinery. At a cost of 70 chakra for major wounds, a Kureimoa is able to recover from grueling injuries and keep fighting longer. Coming from inside the clansman's body and pouring outward with Kurochi, the healing process is extensive enough to mend deep/shallow cuts, singed, frostbitten, and even necrotic/rotting skin, flush toxins and poisons from the body, and even regerate entire limbs if necessary. When dealing with superficial injuries like the aforementioned singed skin or shallow cuts, bruises, etc the Kureimoa is able to spend 30 chakra to heal up to 40 damage. Should the user have serious injuries such as missing limbs, moderately high damage, broken bones, etc, then he is capable of healing up to 100 damage, spending twice the amount for chakra ( i.e. healing 50 health equals 100 chakra ). The ultimate healing process of the Kureimoa however, is the secret technique dubbed only as "Dying Light" where once per match/event, the body is flooded with copious amounts of chakra and Kurochi as a terrifyingly fast healing process grips the Kureimoa's body. This ultimate healing can heal up to 150 damage at heavy costs, however. Doing this requires the Kureimoa to be alive and have his head still be attached to his spine/body while it costs a whopping 300 chakra and takes 2 of the 3 allotted slots per turn to use. This also prevents usage of other forms of healing for an extended time.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Must be at least Ghoul rank to perform</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Any usage requires a move per turn. Minor healing can be done once every other turn while major healing can only occur once every 4 turns. Dying Light can only be used once per arc and prevents usage of minor and major healing for 6 turns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Only one version of healing can be performed in the same turn.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Only Claymores of Heartless rank and above are able to use "Dying Light"</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Kurochi <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> Vile Chakra </span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Type: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Rank: C/S</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Range: Short-Long</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chakra cost: 15/40</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Damage: 30/80</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Description: The special chakra nature only found in Claymores, Kurochi is like the physical manifestation of their hunger and agony. The energy itself is pitch black in appearance and appears and behaves almost like water with its amorphous shape shifting and flexibility. This malleability isn't to be underestimated though, as the energy is both capable of being dense and hard enough to shatter bones and restrict targets and also precise and thin enough to remove a strand of hair. Claymores can manifest Kurochi directly within their bodies, where it can be seen dripping from their pores and eyes, as well as directly from it, or even the area short ranged around them. They are also able to manipulate this energy up to long range with chakra control and may sustain pre-existing constructs with -10 chakra per turn, for up to three turns. When creating constructs to attack Kurochi cannot be formed within 5 meters of the opponent. When in contact with living things, Kurochi's effects can be described as "warm" to the touch, not with heat but rather the effect it has where it gradually degrades the objects it touch in a parasitic manner, feeding on both the chakra and physical aspects of its target(s) until nothing is left. The Claymore can control what things the Kurochi feeds on and what it doesn't. Should the Claymore desire, this special chakra can be used to perform one of the core techniques of the clan; Primeval Gluttony. From the lowest to the highest rank of the release, the energy is able to feed on raw chakra and bodies and take the chakra into the Claymore's body like a proxy. In terms of S/W all elements one rank weak to Kurochi (raw and Senjutsu chakra) are devoured near immediately when interacting with it while neutral elements (elemental and other hyper natures like Bijuu chakra) are degraded at normal pace. Kurochi manifestations can range from as small as kunai (C ranked) to as large as the Doton technique Mountain Smash (S ranked).</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: The S ranked version can only be performed 4x a match.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: If the S ranked variant is used then no other forms of Kurochi manipulation above A ranked can be used in the following turn.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Zankokuna Teikoku <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> Cruel Hegemony</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Type: Supplementary</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Rank: A</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Range: N/A</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chakra Cost: N/A (+10 to technique)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Damage: N/A (+20 to technique)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Description: Capitalizing on the Kureimoas' innate ability to mold Kurochi within their bodies, Cruel Hegemony is a technique which details the effect dormant Kurochi in the body has on one's chakra and its applications. First, by coursing trace amounts of Kurochi through the tenketsu, the Kureimoa is able to alter the look and behavior of its regular chakra, more specifically advanced manipulations such as elemental chakra. By mixing ones chakra nature's with Kuroch a few important effects become immediately noticeable, such as the element adopting the jet black appearance of Kurochi while also sharing a few of its traits. The infused element will gain the ability to affect both chakra and matter alike, as is the characteristic trait of Kurochi. For example, a Kurochi infused fireball will be pitch black in color, obscuring vision while being able to devour the chakra and physical aspects of its target(s) unlike regular fire.Water techniques become severely discolored, looking very murky while Doton techniques become pitch black--even the tiny particles. Lightning also becomes black and solid variations of Futon (such as Vacuum Blade) becomes dark grey color. However this effect only applies to elements released directly from the Claymore's body such as the hands, mouth, feet, etc.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Lasts 4 turns with each usage</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Can only be performed 3x by Heartless Ones and below and 4x by Phantasmal Ones and up</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Can only be applied to elements of S ranked 3x in total and Forbidden ranked only 2x</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Requires a 2 turn cool down once it ends.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Usable members of Ghoul rank and above.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Masukumēka No Me <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> Mask Maker’s Eye</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Type: Offensive/ Supplementary/ Defensive</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Rank: A-S</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Range: Short</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chakra Cost: 30-40 (-X per turn from target, -10 per turn active)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Damage: 60-80</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Description: The eye of the mask maker, is one of the developments which the members of the clan made, in order to show proof not to themselves but, rather to the world of them not being the beasts and vicious creatures that they believed them to be, rather, a clan and more so a civilized group of individuals, who were able to along with their gifted abilities to create one of the most advanced and yet again elegant ways of battling. Using the control they had over Kurochi and the ability to manifest it within their body, they would manipulate it under their first layer of skin, creating a sort of flexible, sub-dermal body armor, which does not only stand strong as just an armor, but is the very core principle of this art of battling which they have developed. Due to the very parasitic nature, and potency of the chakra, they will be able to exhibit the properties of the energy from their very bodies by having it seep through various areas of the skin. Along with their ability to eat away chakra at an alarming rate, and strength and weaknesses of the element, to leak through the users skin, allowing them to showcase the usages in a closed quarter combat style of battling. Due to the complicated stances of the technique, it was later separated into 3 distinctive "flows" of battling, which entailed sparring/dueling, defense, and complete annihilation, or as they preferred to call it "Conquest".</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Flow of Divinity <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> – Using the basic control they possess over Kurochi, the properties of the chakra will be able to leak through the skin at strategic moments through will, without much waste happening (that is, unnecessary amounts being released from the user’s body). Considering the chakra was under the first layer of skin, contact with the skin of a Kureimoa during this technique will feel almost as if there were a thousand tiny mouths eating/nibbling not only on the skin, but also the chakra should it be present--according to the normal powers/weaknesses of Kurochi as a chakra type. Another fact is that if they deem it worthy, the Kureimoa has the option to release the Kurochi from their body during free form combat which can obscure vision, helping in close quarters, or simply defend from free form attacks, as well as release Kurochi to cover select parts of their bodies, boosting offensive capabilities (this corresponds with the Flow of Divinity's rank, which is A. Costs 30 chakra, deals 60 damage, and takes a move to manifest and control) which can take any shape or form really, depending on the user's imagination. The only limitation to this is that the Kurochi can only move a few meters from the skin, which means the Kureimoa would have to be close to the target to deal some damage. The Kurochi will have an almost weightlessness appearance as it leaks through the pores of the skin, freely allowing them to create very strong offensive or defense themed forces in close quarter combat, for just one touch with the destructive chakra can have detrimental effects on a normal human’s body.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Flow of Absolution <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> – Using the very same principle and the rules based on the strengths and weaknesses of a Kureimoa, the Kurochi, will be able to further increase the defensive capabilities, preventing any direct harm to the Kureimoa's organs, bones, or muscle. Considering the skin is one of the easiest organs of the body to regenerate (at least, for the Kureimoas), the Kurochi will be able to serve as a sort of unseen defense, lying directly underneath and protecting the user, following its own S/W of course. In the event of an attack the skin can be easily sacrificed while the Kurochi underneath serves as the true defense. For example a sword cut would slice the skin open but stop short at the defensive layer of chakra underneath. Whenever the skin is removed, the armor of Kurochi is exposed and the user is able to manipulate it in the sake of defense or attack, subjecting the attacker/attack to point blank, pure Kurochi (this corresponds with the rank of the Flow of Absolution, which is A. Costs 30 chakra, deals 60 damage, and takes a move to manipulate) which naturally devours both physical and chakra properties of a target. This would mean, the average "fatal" strike done to a Kureimoa would actually be more deadly to the attacker than the Kureimoa itself. Kurochi in this usage cannot extend 5 meters should it be exposed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Flow of Conquest <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> – Is when the Kuremoa is able to establish some form of sustained contact with the body of the enemy. During this "flow" the Kurochi is rushed to the hands (or any other area the Kureimoa wishes) and leaks onto the skin causing the covered body part to become pitch black. When this happens, the Kurochi will be able to show a very characteristic trait of it, which would be siphoning chakra. On the first turn of sustained contact, the Kurochi within the Kureimoa begins to relieve the target of 50 points of chakra, but as the contact is maintained, over time, this value stacks for 3 turns, adding up to 150 points of chakra removed at maximum. Feasting can be done when sustained contact is held either with a Kureimoa's Kurochi infused skin or the Kurochi itself, and can lead to loss of vitality in some areas of the body as the Kurochi literally eats away at their flesh while leeching them dry of chakra. This a like the cruel variant of the Kureimoas' hunger for knowledge where they are able to harness thoughts and memories of their foes. Only difference is that this takes the chakra instead.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Connecting the "flows" given to them by the "Vile Chakra", they were able to incorporate various martial arts (such as free form and non-chakra aided Taijutsu), allowing them a rather strict control over closed quarter combat. The vile chakra also has a property of being able to consume weapons of the Kureimoa, from the inside, or coating them on the outside, especially the cancerous organ of the Kagune. This technique can be used to coat and infuse the Kagune of each Kureimoa with either of the "flows" in order to boost battle prowess--regardless of which state the Kagune is in ( i.e. Rinkaku, Ukaku, etc)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: The first two Flows can only be used 2x by Heartless Ones and below while 3x by Phantasmal Ones and above.

The Black Goat's Egg however, specifically connects to one body part, an organ which the Kureimoa have been blessed with: the Kagune. Due to its parasitic and often times cancerous properties, it is a very diverse as well as risky part of the Kureimoas' culture. Being that Kurochi is shown to have very specific medicinal properties when applied to a Claymore's body, this clan technique explores a different form of empowerment through Kurochi never before seen. Like Mask Maker's Eye, The Black Goat's Egg boasts three different sections, each applying to the three factions known within the clan: Vanguard, Centurion, and Aegis Core.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Vanguards of the Sunlit Garden <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" />– This ability caters to the attackers, the Vanguard faction. The technique begins by destroying the Kagune Sac internally with the use of Kurochi and then absorbing every single cell of the organ into the bloodstream. Due to the Kagune Sac being made from the flesh and chakra of the Nature Energy and Senjutsu adepts known only as "Jugo's Clan", absorbing the Kagune Sac in its entirety becomes something way more interesting than self-cannibalization. The cells, called "Jugo's Clan Cells or JC's" from here on out, when absorbed into the blood stream allows the Claymore a very weak but still effective ability to sense and gather Natural Energy, similar to their long time rivals. By being able to sense the ubiquitous Natural Energy around them in a manner less potent than Sage Mode, the Claymore is able to increase their scope awareness as well as an increase to their base speed by 2x while the technique remains active. This infusion isn't strong enough to transfer to the chakra network, but it does seep into the muscles and bones of the Claymore, giving them added resilience to attacks of the "physical" nature, such as Doton, Suiton, etc in the form of 30 damage shaving to those attacks. The JC Cells, still being essentially the Kagune organ, just broken down, is able to be used offensively as well by having Kagune-like weapons called "Quinque" jut from the Claymore's skin. Using the same hardened material that composes the Kagune, the Quinque weapons are equally as durable and are able to play on level terms with elemental techniques of A ranked and below in a variety of shapes and forms such as swords, shields, gauntlets, spears, etc. The Quinque can only be utilized by a Claymore as it requires a constant supply of Kurochi (costs an extra -10 per turn) and if anyone else other than a Claymore wields it the weapon will immediately feed chakra from the holder at an alarming rate until there's no more chakra left to devour. It can also be made in the image of any of the four forms of the Kagune (such as the Ukakku, Kōkaku, Rinkaku, and Bikaku), for example sprouting a tentacle from a sword. The Quinque's are A ranked in power like the Kagune and are able to change shape to whatever the Claymore wishes, so long as contact is made. The final ability of the Quinque is to, in some forms, release arcing waves and beams of concentrated Kurochi up to long ranged (A ranked in power, costing 30 chakra and dealing 60 damage). This can only be done 3 times per conflict. Only one Quinque can be wielded by the Claymore at any given time and once cancelled or destroyed there is a two turn wait before one can be formed again. A-ranked ability, costing 30 chakra to activate and lasts 4 turns. Can be used a maximum of 3 times, with a 2 turn cooldown.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Paladins of the Aegis Core <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> – Being a faction that relies heavily on defense and utility, the Aegis Core uses both Kurochi and Kagune in similar yet different ways than the other factions. Instead of absorbing the Kagune Sac into their bodies like their Vanguard counterparts, the Aegis Core Claymores have been seen to unleash the Kagune in a full coverage exoskeleton formation. This exoskeleton, called an Arata, is tough to the touch as well as alive, molding itself to the Claymore's body and ensuring everywhere is covered. While no doubt boosting the defensive capabilities of the body, allowing the wearer 30 damage shaving to physical attacks, the Arata also serves to augment the Claymore's physical attacks, giving Taijutsu techniques +20 while active. Seeing that the Arata is simply the Kagune being controlled from the outside instead of in, it is able to morph into any of the four forms of the Kagune by infusing it with Kurochi (costs -10 chakra per turn to keep active). Kurochi causes the Arata to appear pitch black forcefully shaping it into the different forms once per turn, each carrying a unique advantage. The Ukaku (Shining Feather) form allows the Arata to become ultra-lightweight without sacrificing defense. When paired with the physical enhancing properties of Kurochi on the body, this becomes something akin to releasing Leg Weights, where the user is able to move with a sort of "new speed". This allows the wearer to move in blurs very similar to the Body Flicker technique. Keep in mind this doesn't actually increase his speed in anyway, it only changes his movement from a natural fluid one to jagged, quick maneuvers, allowing him to dart from place to place and even jump as far as mid ranged (cannot be used to dodge techniques) in one bound. The Kōkaku (Shining Shell) form allows the Arata to create projectiles similar to kunais and Fuma shuriken that can be thrown up to long ranged. Being made of an organic material rivaling steel these projectiles are very lethal and can be guided to their target with chakra control thanks to an ever-present Kurochi infusion. The Rinkaku (Shining Scale) Arata form allows the wearer to spout up to four extra arms that are C ranked individually (amounting collectively as A ranked, just like the Kagune). These are can be used to aid in Taijutsu and Kenjutsu and any other forms of body arts the wearer knows but they can't mold chakra. The last Arata form, the Bikaku (Shining Tail) is a bit different. Keeping its tradition as the toughest of the Kagune forms, the Bikaku Arata can be surged with a large amount of Kurochi to increase its defensive capabilities, raising the rank of the Arata from A to S, which would allow the user to tank the damage of one S ranked elemental attack, or two A ranks, etc as well as increasing the Claymore's damage shaving to physical attacks to 40 rather than 30. S-ranked ability, costing 40 chakra to activate and lasts 3 turns. Can be used a maximum of 2 times, with a 3 turn cooldown.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chimeric Centurions of Aogiri <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> – The most peculiar ability of the Centurion faction, it is said to have been created by the One-Eyed King himself and is based on the innate connections found between the Kagune, Koruchi, and the Claymore. The 'evolution' is first initiated by the Claymore coursing Kurochi through their Kagune, causing it to shift from blood red to jet black. By doing this the Kagune will naturally adopt some abilities of Kurochi which include degrading both the chakra and physical properties of anything it touches. The peculiar twist that comes with this infusion is the taking advantage of Kurochi's ability to forcefully manipulate the body and manipulate the Kagune itself. Based on the same principles of Awakening, the Kurochi infused Kagune will be be able to contort into horrid creations as well as an overall size, defense, and power boost (deals 80 damage rather than 60). Perhaps the most shocking change that takes over the Kagune is the organic mutation that occurs which replicates the users own organs onto the Kagune, making it almost alive-like. These organs include eyes which can see and pivot, mouths which can whisper and even eat, along with prehensile hands and ears, all of which are the Claymore's own body parts, only copied. The extra appendages would serve to help the Claymore in combat but they are foremost side effects of copious amounts of Kurochi infusion. This technique is also able to facilitate the Claymore's fusion with their Kagune further. By destroying the mutated Kagune and absorbing it into their bodies like the other two factions, the Chimeras of Aogiri can spread the JC's entirely throughout their bodies and manifest a human-sized reconstruction of the Kagune. Very different from the Aegis Core, this full-body Kagune doesn't form on the outside like armor but rather inside of the body itself. In doing so the user's skin, hair, and eyes can become pitch black. The purpose of this, is to allow the Kagune's durable structure (see S/W's of Kagune) to lay beneath the skin as a second line of defense while also to be able to come from almost every conceivable part of their bodies instead of the back alone while also causing extra appendages and organs (such as the eyes, ears, and mouths mentioned earlier) to sprout all over the Claymore's body. Of course they can control what appendage grows and where. This can cause an arm to become riddled with eyes, similar to Danzo, or even extra mouths to intimidate or speed up a feeding process. The Kagune shares the regenerative properties of the Claymore body and costs -10 chakra per turn to keep active. This means, if the Claymore uses the healing CCJ "Life Eternal" both Kagune and their bodies are healed at the same time due to the unique fusion. By having all these extra sensory based organs functioning on their bodies/Kagune, the Centurions gain an increased awareness far above regular standards, similar in nature to chakra sensing. This translates to an increase in their tracking capabilities by a factor to x3, though this does not extend to the range their sensory possesses. Quite peculiarly too, the organs are known to sometimes function autonomously of the user's control, such as the mouths whispering horrid things or the eyes staring where the Claymore isn't. S-ranked ability costing 40 chakra to activate and lasts 3 turns. Can be used a maximum of 2 times, with a 2 turn cooldown.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">The Black Goat's Egg reworks the traditional use of the Kagune for the Claymores, and as long as this clan technique is active they lose access to the Kagune in any other way. For higher ranking members who have access to two or more factions of the clan, to switch between each faction correspondent ability of Black Goat's Egg they will have to wait a turn for the Kagune Sac to regenerate before they can utilize it again. Doing so ends and triggers all drawbacks of the chosen faction ability early while reducing the turn limit of the next faction ability by one turn. Each faction ability damages the user by -20 per turn while active.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: While any of the three abilities are active the Claymore loses access to the Kagune as the traditional CCW.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Can only be used by Heartless Ones and Above</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Can only be used to those who accepted the Kagune transplant.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Bukimina Nisshoku <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="♎" title="Libra :libra:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/4.5/png/64/264e.png" data-shortname=":libra:" /> Ominous Eclipse</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Type: Supplementary/Offensive/Defensive</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Rank: B-S</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Range: Short-Long</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Chakra Cost: 40 (+10 per turn)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Damage: 40-80</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Description: Bukimina Nisshoku is one devised solely to allow the Claymore to take direct advantage of their unique and oppressive chakra nature that is Kurochi. The technique in itself could be regarded as a "shield that kills" due to its dual nature of defense and attack at the same time. It comes in levels, or increments, which deliver slightly different results depending on how much chakra is spent. It begins foremost with the Claymore transforming their body into Kurochi completely, becoming pitch black humanoid entities that can adopt any texture they deem fit; flickering like flames, flowing like water, etc. Once the Claymore has been transformed their body allows for heightened movements (x2 to current Speed) Due to the amorphous traits of Kurochi, the Claymore will be able to not only shape themselves into anything imaginable, but also fly-- through extensive manipulation. The second side to this technique is its offensive one, where anything the Claymore so much as brushes against in this form, will immediately be subjected to the heinous effects of Kurochi, where it eats away at both physical materials and chakra alike, including "intangible" forms of chakra like un-molded sources within a person or animal. If the Claymore, while in this state phases through a technique which is of a chakra type weak to Kurochi by at least one rank, they are able to break down that chakra and add it directly to their reserves with an efficiency rate of 100%, meaning none is wasted to the environment like regular Kurochi applications, due to their bodies taking the chakra in whole. If they phase through a person, they are able to suck the chakra from the bodies (depending on rank) as well as rob the body of its vitality (physical energy) leaving drained husks behind devoid of breath or chakra. For the B ranked application, up to 50 of the opponents chakra points can be drained and passed to the Claymore, at A ranked this becomes 80 and the S ranked application can siphon a whopping 120 of the opponent's chakra directly from their chakra pool i.e. it doesn't have to be molded into a technique. Of course, just like Kurochi's regular application, the Claymore is able to decide who and what gets drained, and can pass over allies and structures with no harm done. However, the technique comes with its drawbacks, naturally, which vary depending on rank. The B ranked variant allows the Claymore to enter the state for 4 turns, with a 2 turn cooldown between uses. They can only move 5 meters (Short Ranged) each turn when evading techniques with this variant. The A ranked version allows the state to be kept for 3 turns, with a 3 turn cooldown between usages, and a maximum usage limit of 3 times. The Claymore is able to move up to 15 meters (mid ranged) each turn when evading techniques. And lastly, the S ranked variant sees the state being kept for 2 turns, with a 4 turn cooldown between usages, and a maximum usage limit of twice. The Claymore is able to move up to long ranged in a single maneuver when evading techniques.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Claymore are able to alter their shapes on the fly to further evade techniques while in this state, costing an additional +10 chakra, but only once per turn.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: The drawbacks for each variant is as follows; B ranked: No other Kurochi techniques above A ranked can be used following it.

The wide scale carnage was a result of the performance of a Forbidden technique only a few even heard about much less knew how to execute. Normally, the technique, which is actually a culmination of four different acts coming together, is sealed within stone and hidden deep underground, but its secrets could easily be revealed by true Claymores who sought it. The four acts quickly became known as the "Levels of Restrictions" and consisted of Kurochi, the Claymores' dark and foul chakra, and its many uses that weren't thought conventionally possible before. The "levels" are thought to be shackles that govern the imprisonment of a great demon called Bileyg that lives within every Claymore, who's terrible form can be seen within each and every Awakening and Abyssal State, and who's Hunger and intent lies within Kurochi itself. With every level being surpassed, a Claymore is able to bring themselves closer to the Demon, losing their individuality in the sea that is its endless madness and wicked intent (essentially going mad) and upon breaching the final level, the Claymore loses themselves and becomes one with Bileyg itself. Only one level can be activated at a time. Levels of Restriction can only be activated four times over all, regardless of Level, with a three turn cool down.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Level 3: The first step to becoming the Demon. This initial bound allows for Kurochi to adopt peculiar properties while under the intent of a Claymore. Foremost, the Hunger within the Claymore will become "visible" within the Kurochi. That is, a blood red hue will hover over the blackness signifying this, similar to how Bijuu chakra is colored red with hate. All subsequent Kurochi related techniques performed while in this level will cost +10 extra chakra while damaging the Claymore -20 to perform, but receives a +20 to damage. The dark energy will also become much more flexible in its destruction, too wherein the user can, once per turn, coat one of his techniques with an adequately sized amount of Kurochi (relative to the technique it is affecting) to cover it. The coating won't boost the technique's damage but rather its kill potential. When coated, the Kurochi will mask the technique's appearance. For example, a Katon technique could be masked with Kurochi which can be made to flow like water, forcing the fire to conform to its shell's shape and also flow. The Kurochi will also be thick enough so that normal sight would be unable to discern the true nature of the technique inside. This application is passive in nature, being applied while the technique is being molded, though this can only be done to one technique per turn. Level 3 is B-ranked, lasts three turns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Level 2: The breaching of the second frame will see Kurochi evolving even further. Level 2 is tasked with taking advantage of Claymores' deep connection with Kurochi. As such, Kurochi related techniques up to A-rank in this level gain +30 damage and the Claymore is able to, once per turn, perform elemental techniques up to A-rank through Kurochi constructs so long as the construct in question is within range (Short-Mid), such as a Kurochi wall emitting Chidori Nagashi or a Kurochi shield spewing a fireball. This ability can be applied passively but only once and the Claymore would still need to perform hand seals/accompanying movements if any. This level is A ranked, costs -20 chakra and damages -20 per turn. Level 2 lasts three turns. After deactivation the Claymore will be unable to perform techniques above S-ranked for two turns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Level 1: Reaching even closer to Bileyg, this level's breach sees the Kurochi corrupting the Claymore itself. They will lose their physical form and become one with the foul chakra, leaving only a silhouette of what they used to look like and two emissive spots where their eyes should be. By merging themselves with Kurochi, Kurochi related techniques up to S-rank will gain a +30 damage boost while giving the Claymore an ability to 'feel' anything the foul chakra touches such as objects, people, and techniques. This level is S-ranked, costs -30 chakra and damages -30 per turn, lasting two turns. After use the Claymore will be unable to mold techniques above A-ranked for two turns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Level 0: This level is the ultimate and final frame. The Claymore becomes one with not only the Kurochi inside and around them, but the inner demon that is Bileyg. They lose what's left of the shape they had managed to keep from level 1, and grow into the seven foot tall demon [X]. They will also begin to emit an aura of Kurochi passively from their bodies that is S ranked in power but can only extend up to 5m of their position. While this level is active, the Claymore is able to have the aura act defensively or offensively without the cost of a move but only once and the maximum range stays at 5 meters, in any direction. Kurochi related techniques up to Forbidden rank are boosted by +40 in this level but the Claymore suffers a -40 damage penalty upon activation and -40 in the next turn. Level 0 is Forbidden ranked and lasts 2 turns. After deactivation the Claymore will be unable to perform techniques above B-ranked for three turns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'"></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Must be at least Ghoul rank to perform. Ghouls are only capable of Level 3.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Heartless rank is able to perform all Levels excepting 0.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">Note: Phantasmal rank and up may perform all Levels.</span></p><p>[/QUOTE]</p>
[QUOTE="Alyx, post: 22121195, member: 86283"] [CENTER][COLOR=rgb(85, 57, 130)][FONT=Georgia][U][I]Claymore Custom Clan[/I][/U][/FONT][/COLOR] [/CENTER] [FONT=Georgia]Kagune ♎ Shining Child Type: Weapon Rank: A - S Range: Short - Mid Chakra: N/A Damage: 60 - 80 (-40 per activation, -10 per turn) Description: Not only did the Kureimoa develop a unique and foul chakra nature as a result of feeding on people for years, but they also garnered a curse, called Kagunes. The word Kagune in itself means "Shining Child" and is not as lovely as the name suggests. After years of dominating minor clans the Kureimoa turned to their eternal rivals; Jugo's Clan, and began ingesting their flesh, unknowingly metabolizing the chakra, which lead to their bodies ultimately turning this strange chakra and flesh into a small, cancerous growth which was later known as the "Kagune Sac". This strange piece of flesh positioned itself along the Kureimoa's spine and rested there, connecting itself to his/her nervous and chakra system like a parasite. By connecting to such a vital area on the body the Kureimoa are able to control and "flex" this Kagune sac like they would with any normal muscle. However, flexing this muscle is where this get interesting. With mental commands and a supply of chakra, the Kureimoa is able to draw the Kagune from their body and have it take form around him kind of like a liquid muscle. Kagunes are red-blackish in color coming from the color of the blood within it as well as the Kurochi surrounding it. The Kagune, when manifested, acts like another limb to the user and can be used as such with the durability of an A ranked technique which can play on par with Elemental Ninjutsu of the same rank. And just like their hosts, the Kureimoa, the Kagune is able to regenerate--albeit at a slower and more inferior rate considering it isn't exactly their own flesh. Each time the Kagune is called upon it tears through the skin quite forcefully which often times sends blood and pieces of flesh scattering from the Kureimoa's body. But, with their aforementioned healing factor this becomes negligable as the damage is healed almost as quickly as it was made. Being an organ, the Kagune can be commanded as easily as any other limb. Kurochi also covers and infuses the Kagune in various ways depending on the form taken. The Kagune and Kurochi each have A-ranked power, allowing the weapon in its entirety S-ranked durability. It seamlessly and passively regenerates from attacks A-Rank and below. This regeneration also extends to attacks above A-Rank but is more limited in use. Attacks stronger than S-Rank will shatter the Kagune but it can regenerate once from a Forbidden ranked attack and twice from an S ranked attack. As previously stated, Kagune has 4 main forms, each one corresponding to the location it is projecting out of the Claymore's body, with their own unique usages, advantages and disadvantages. The location where the Kagune will project itself out of will be necessary to give it the shape needed. Its form can be changed but doing so forces the organ back inside the body, where it will relocate after one turn, and re-emerge (doing so cannot bypass any existing cool downs and counts as a re-activation). The color of each Kagune may vary per Claymore as well as unique variations (to be submitted as PCCJ). The Kagune can be activated passively once per fight/conflict, four times overall, with a four turn cool down each time it is deactivated. Lasts as long as the Claymore keeps paying health. (Ukaku || 羽赫) Shining Feather The first type of the Kagune which grows in the cervical vertebrae. When activated, the organ bursts from the Claymore's back as a pair of wings. Each wing has a bony support structure running its edges while Kurochi forms a thin membrane in between. This allows the Claymore a limited form of flight and gliding, which can be used to travel up to Mid-range at their base speed. The Claymore also gains he user gains a projectile offensive mechanism, where the Kagune is able to release kunai sized shards of Kurochi to 10 meters (Mid-range). These shards are A-Rank in power and cannot be done while in flight. This ability has a two turn cool down. (Kōkaku || 甲赫) Shining Shell The second type is activated upon having the organ grow or move to the thoracic vertebrae. In this form the Kagune forms an outer shell over the Claymore's arm that behaves like a sword or cleaver. Kurochi flares around the Kagune in this form and can allow it pierce or slice through techniques up to S-rank. The Kōkaku form can only reach up to 3 meters of the Claymore but can be operated in close range at the speed of the average Samurai due to its small form and lightweight material. The Kurochi enhancement can only be done once every two turns. (Rinkaku || 鱗赫) Shining Scales The third type is created with the growing or moving of the organ in the Lumbar vertebrae which gives the user the ability to call forth tentacles from the spine, up to 4 in number or just one (four B-ranks or one A-rank). Kurochi infuses the Kagune in this form, allowing it to devour anything it touches. For techniques lower in power than the Rinkaku, can be devoured whilst attacking to supply the Claymore (through Primeval Gluttony CCJ). The ability to devour and return chakra can only be activated once every two turns after which the Rinkaku will still function as an offensive weapon. The Rinkaku is also the second Kagune form that can reach up to 10 meters when attacking (Mid ranged). (Bikaku || 尾赫) Shining Tail The last kind, which is created from having the organ move to the sacrum, will project itself out from the skin in form of a flexible tail. Being made of almost entirely muscle, the Bikaku swings with enough strength to break bones and send tremors through the ground. With the added Kurochi outer layer, it is an S-ranked weapon, capable of dealing serious damage. It can also be used to cover the Claymore's leg instead, for added Taijutsu damage (+20 to leg based Tai). Once activated the ability lasts two turns, with a two turn cool down. The Bikaku can only reach up to four meters of the Claymore's body. Note: Must be at least Ghoul rank to possess. Note: Choosing to have a Kagune prevents the Claymore from utilizing any other CW's and must be mentioned in the biography. Genshi Ōkui ♎ Primeval Gluttony Type: Supplementary/Offensive Rank: N/A Range: Short Chakra Cost: (+200 chakra per limb/+300 torso and head) Damage: N/A Description: The basis of the Kureimoas' lust for flesh is firmly rooted in their curse of perpetual hunger. Despite this never ending agony, they are capable of feeding ever so often and being satisfied even if for for a moment. Through feeding, a Kureimoa gains a slight euphoria, like someone eating their favorite food prepared just perfectly, along with the pent up chakra stored within the flesh of their victims. This chakra can be ingested by the Kureimoa and added to their own chakra reserves or use it to fuel various chakra intensive techniques of the clan such as healing. The human body is divided into four (4) sections when being the main course of a Kureimoa's meal; both hands, feet, and the head as well as torso. Consuming the limbs will give 200 points of chakra while the torso and head will yield 300 chakra and are able to be harvested by the Kureimoa clansman through feeding. When added up this means every person consumed by the Kureimoa provides 1000 chakra However their Hunger doesn't end there, Claymores also possess a hunger for knowledge where they are able to access the thoughts, sentiments, memories, or even emptions of their victims through consumption--even if the target is dead. With their ability to digest almost all forms of chakra (such as neutral, elemental, Raw Senjutsu, as well as Bijuu chakra) they are able to devour not just flesh but actual energies when presented the opportunity. This chakra eating habit can only apply to raw, unmolded chakra and not actual techniques. Meaning, they must wait until said technique has been broken down to a point where it becomes simply raw, un-molded chakra. Whenever Kurochi overpowers an opponent's technique and the physical and chakra properties of said technique have been degraded, the Claymores are able to harvest that lingering, unmolded chakra through either eating it manually or using the Kurochi as a proxy to take it into their bodies. When metabolizing the raw chakra of a deteriorated technique a Kureimoa gains 50% of the cost of said technique as chakra to their reserves. This means, an A ranked technique (30/60) reduced to chakra or a simple burst of raw chakra gives the Kureimoa only 15 chakra should it be eaten/absorbed. Accessing sentiments and absorbing lingering chakra has no cool down nor does it take a move-slot of the three allotted (this technique will still need to be referenced however). Note: These chakra increases count as Bonus chakra should it reach the Kureimoa chakra cap, allowing it to increase their chakra beyond their normal limits. Note: Must be of at least Ghoul rank to perform. Note: Can only be performed every 5 turns whether in part (eating only a few limbs) or in full (eating an entire body). Note: Limb consumption can be done in the Ninja World but consuming the torso or head of a target requires both to agree to permanent damage and death. Limbs consumed will remain gone for that arc only, never permanent. Note: Can also be performed through the Kagune organ or Kurochi constructs. Kagirinai no Sonzai ♎ Life Eternal Type: Supplementary Rank: N/A Range: Short Chakra Cost: 30 - 300 Damage: N/A Description: The second half to the Kureimoas' creed to survival, Kagirinai no Sonzai is based on their ability to heal from wounds without the use of medical ninjutsu or machinery. At a cost of 70 chakra for major wounds, a Kureimoa is able to recover from grueling injuries and keep fighting longer. Coming from inside the clansman's body and pouring outward with Kurochi, the healing process is extensive enough to mend deep/shallow cuts, singed, frostbitten, and even necrotic/rotting skin, flush toxins and poisons from the body, and even regerate entire limbs if necessary. When dealing with superficial injuries like the aforementioned singed skin or shallow cuts, bruises, etc the Kureimoa is able to spend 30 chakra to heal up to 40 damage. Should the user have serious injuries such as missing limbs, moderately high damage, broken bones, etc, then he is capable of healing up to 100 damage, spending twice the amount for chakra ( i.e. healing 50 health equals 100 chakra ). The ultimate healing process of the Kureimoa however, is the secret technique dubbed only as "Dying Light" where once per match/event, the body is flooded with copious amounts of chakra and Kurochi as a terrifyingly fast healing process grips the Kureimoa's body. This ultimate healing can heal up to 150 damage at heavy costs, however. Doing this requires the Kureimoa to be alive and have his head still be attached to his spine/body while it costs a whopping 300 chakra and takes 2 of the 3 allotted slots per turn to use. This also prevents usage of other forms of healing for an extended time. Note: Must be at least Ghoul rank to perform Note: Any usage requires a move per turn. Minor healing can be done once every other turn while major healing can only occur once every 4 turns. Dying Light can only be used once per arc and prevents usage of minor and major healing for 6 turns. Note: Only one version of healing can be performed in the same turn. Note: Only Claymores of Heartless rank and above are able to use "Dying Light" Kurochi ♎ Vile Chakra Type: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive Rank: C/S Range: Short-Long Chakra cost: 15/40 Damage: 30/80 Description: The special chakra nature only found in Claymores, Kurochi is like the physical manifestation of their hunger and agony. The energy itself is pitch black in appearance and appears and behaves almost like water with its amorphous shape shifting and flexibility. This malleability isn't to be underestimated though, as the energy is both capable of being dense and hard enough to shatter bones and restrict targets and also precise and thin enough to remove a strand of hair. Claymores can manifest Kurochi directly within their bodies, where it can be seen dripping from their pores and eyes, as well as directly from it, or even the area short ranged around them. They are also able to manipulate this energy up to long range with chakra control and may sustain pre-existing constructs with -10 chakra per turn, for up to three turns. When creating constructs to attack Kurochi cannot be formed within 5 meters of the opponent. When in contact with living things, Kurochi's effects can be described as "warm" to the touch, not with heat but rather the effect it has where it gradually degrades the objects it touch in a parasitic manner, feeding on both the chakra and physical aspects of its target(s) until nothing is left. The Claymore can control what things the Kurochi feeds on and what it doesn't. Should the Claymore desire, this special chakra can be used to perform one of the core techniques of the clan; Primeval Gluttony. From the lowest to the highest rank of the release, the energy is able to feed on raw chakra and bodies and take the chakra into the Claymore's body like a proxy. In terms of S/W all elements one rank weak to Kurochi (raw and Senjutsu chakra) are devoured near immediately when interacting with it while neutral elements (elemental and other hyper natures like Bijuu chakra) are degraded at normal pace. Kurochi manifestations can range from as small as kunai (C ranked) to as large as the Doton technique Mountain Smash (S ranked). Note: The S ranked version can only be performed 4x a match. Note: If the S ranked variant is used then no other forms of Kurochi manipulation above A ranked can be used in the following turn. Zankokuna Teikoku ♎ Cruel Hegemony Type: Supplementary Rank: A Range: N/A Chakra Cost: N/A (+10 to technique) Damage: N/A (+20 to technique) Description: Capitalizing on the Kureimoas' innate ability to mold Kurochi within their bodies, Cruel Hegemony is a technique which details the effect dormant Kurochi in the body has on one's chakra and its applications. First, by coursing trace amounts of Kurochi through the tenketsu, the Kureimoa is able to alter the look and behavior of its regular chakra, more specifically advanced manipulations such as elemental chakra. By mixing ones chakra nature's with Kuroch a few important effects become immediately noticeable, such as the element adopting the jet black appearance of Kurochi while also sharing a few of its traits. The infused element will gain the ability to affect both chakra and matter alike, as is the characteristic trait of Kurochi. For example, a Kurochi infused fireball will be pitch black in color, obscuring vision while being able to devour the chakra and physical aspects of its target(s) unlike regular fire.Water techniques become severely discolored, looking very murky while Doton techniques become pitch black--even the tiny particles. Lightning also becomes black and solid variations of Futon (such as Vacuum Blade) becomes dark grey color. However this effect only applies to elements released directly from the Claymore's body such as the hands, mouth, feet, etc. Note: Lasts 4 turns with each usage Note: Can only be performed 3x by Heartless Ones and below and 4x by Phantasmal Ones and up Note: Can only be applied to elements of S ranked 3x in total and Forbidden ranked only 2x Note: Requires a 2 turn cool down once it ends. Note: Usable members of Ghoul rank and above. Masukumēka No Me ♎ Mask Maker’s Eye Type: Offensive/ Supplementary/ Defensive Rank: A-S Range: Short Chakra Cost: 30-40 (-X per turn from target, -10 per turn active) Damage: 60-80 Description: The eye of the mask maker, is one of the developments which the members of the clan made, in order to show proof not to themselves but, rather to the world of them not being the beasts and vicious creatures that they believed them to be, rather, a clan and more so a civilized group of individuals, who were able to along with their gifted abilities to create one of the most advanced and yet again elegant ways of battling. Using the control they had over Kurochi and the ability to manifest it within their body, they would manipulate it under their first layer of skin, creating a sort of flexible, sub-dermal body armor, which does not only stand strong as just an armor, but is the very core principle of this art of battling which they have developed. Due to the very parasitic nature, and potency of the chakra, they will be able to exhibit the properties of the energy from their very bodies by having it seep through various areas of the skin. Along with their ability to eat away chakra at an alarming rate, and strength and weaknesses of the element, to leak through the users skin, allowing them to showcase the usages in a closed quarter combat style of battling. Due to the complicated stances of the technique, it was later separated into 3 distinctive "flows" of battling, which entailed sparring/dueling, defense, and complete annihilation, or as they preferred to call it "Conquest". Flow of Divinity ♎ – Using the basic control they possess over Kurochi, the properties of the chakra will be able to leak through the skin at strategic moments through will, without much waste happening (that is, unnecessary amounts being released from the user’s body). Considering the chakra was under the first layer of skin, contact with the skin of a Kureimoa during this technique will feel almost as if there were a thousand tiny mouths eating/nibbling not only on the skin, but also the chakra should it be present--according to the normal powers/weaknesses of Kurochi as a chakra type. Another fact is that if they deem it worthy, the Kureimoa has the option to release the Kurochi from their body during free form combat which can obscure vision, helping in close quarters, or simply defend from free form attacks, as well as release Kurochi to cover select parts of their bodies, boosting offensive capabilities (this corresponds with the Flow of Divinity's rank, which is A. Costs 30 chakra, deals 60 damage, and takes a move to manifest and control) which can take any shape or form really, depending on the user's imagination. The only limitation to this is that the Kurochi can only move a few meters from the skin, which means the Kureimoa would have to be close to the target to deal some damage. The Kurochi will have an almost weightlessness appearance as it leaks through the pores of the skin, freely allowing them to create very strong offensive or defense themed forces in close quarter combat, for just one touch with the destructive chakra can have detrimental effects on a normal human’s body. Flow of Absolution ♎ – Using the very same principle and the rules based on the strengths and weaknesses of a Kureimoa, the Kurochi, will be able to further increase the defensive capabilities, preventing any direct harm to the Kureimoa's organs, bones, or muscle. Considering the skin is one of the easiest organs of the body to regenerate (at least, for the Kureimoas), the Kurochi will be able to serve as a sort of unseen defense, lying directly underneath and protecting the user, following its own S/W of course. In the event of an attack the skin can be easily sacrificed while the Kurochi underneath serves as the true defense. For example a sword cut would slice the skin open but stop short at the defensive layer of chakra underneath. Whenever the skin is removed, the armor of Kurochi is exposed and the user is able to manipulate it in the sake of defense or attack, subjecting the attacker/attack to point blank, pure Kurochi (this corresponds with the rank of the Flow of Absolution, which is A. Costs 30 chakra, deals 60 damage, and takes a move to manipulate) which naturally devours both physical and chakra properties of a target. This would mean, the average "fatal" strike done to a Kureimoa would actually be more deadly to the attacker than the Kureimoa itself. Kurochi in this usage cannot extend 5 meters should it be exposed. Flow of Conquest ♎ – Is when the Kuremoa is able to establish some form of sustained contact with the body of the enemy. During this "flow" the Kurochi is rushed to the hands (or any other area the Kureimoa wishes) and leaks onto the skin causing the covered body part to become pitch black. When this happens, the Kurochi will be able to show a very characteristic trait of it, which would be siphoning chakra. On the first turn of sustained contact, the Kurochi within the Kureimoa begins to relieve the target of 50 points of chakra, but as the contact is maintained, over time, this value stacks for 3 turns, adding up to 150 points of chakra removed at maximum. Feasting can be done when sustained contact is held either with a Kureimoa's Kurochi infused skin or the Kurochi itself, and can lead to loss of vitality in some areas of the body as the Kurochi literally eats away at their flesh while leeching them dry of chakra. This a like the cruel variant of the Kureimoas' hunger for knowledge where they are able to harness thoughts and memories of their foes. Only difference is that this takes the chakra instead. Connecting the "flows" given to them by the "Vile Chakra", they were able to incorporate various martial arts (such as free form and non-chakra aided Taijutsu), allowing them a rather strict control over closed quarter combat. The vile chakra also has a property of being able to consume weapons of the Kureimoa, from the inside, or coating them on the outside, especially the cancerous organ of the Kagune. This technique can be used to coat and infuse the Kagune of each Kureimoa with either of the "flows" in order to boost battle prowess--regardless of which state the Kagune is in ( i.e. Rinkaku, Ukaku, etc) Note: The first two Flows can only be used 2x by Heartless Ones and below while 3x by Phantasmal Ones and above. The last Flow can only be done 3x, regardless of rank. Note: Each variant lasts 4 turns each, excepting S-Ranked Conquest which lasts 3 Note: Flows of Divinity and Absolution require a two turn cool down upon deactivation Note: Flow of Conquest requires a three turn cool down upon deactivation. Kuro Yagi no Tamago ♎ The Black Goat's Egg Type: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive Rank: A-S Range: N/A Chakra Cost: 30 - 40 (-10 per turn) Damage: N/A (-20 per turn) Description: This technique is similar to Mask Makers eye where a very special fusion between the Kurochi and the body of the Kureimoa is explored. The Black Goat's Egg however, specifically connects to one body part, an organ which the Kureimoa have been blessed with: the Kagune. Due to its parasitic and often times cancerous properties, it is a very diverse as well as risky part of the Kureimoas' culture. Being that Kurochi is shown to have very specific medicinal properties when applied to a Claymore's body, this clan technique explores a different form of empowerment through Kurochi never before seen. Like Mask Maker's Eye, The Black Goat's Egg boasts three different sections, each applying to the three factions known within the clan: Vanguard, Centurion, and Aegis Core. Vanguards of the Sunlit Garden ♎– This ability caters to the attackers, the Vanguard faction. The technique begins by destroying the Kagune Sac internally with the use of Kurochi and then absorbing every single cell of the organ into the bloodstream. Due to the Kagune Sac being made from the flesh and chakra of the Nature Energy and Senjutsu adepts known only as "Jugo's Clan", absorbing the Kagune Sac in its entirety becomes something way more interesting than self-cannibalization. The cells, called "Jugo's Clan Cells or JC's" from here on out, when absorbed into the blood stream allows the Claymore a very weak but still effective ability to sense and gather Natural Energy, similar to their long time rivals. By being able to sense the ubiquitous Natural Energy around them in a manner less potent than Sage Mode, the Claymore is able to increase their scope awareness as well as an increase to their base speed by 2x while the technique remains active. This infusion isn't strong enough to transfer to the chakra network, but it does seep into the muscles and bones of the Claymore, giving them added resilience to attacks of the "physical" nature, such as Doton, Suiton, etc in the form of 30 damage shaving to those attacks. The JC Cells, still being essentially the Kagune organ, just broken down, is able to be used offensively as well by having Kagune-like weapons called "Quinque" jut from the Claymore's skin. Using the same hardened material that composes the Kagune, the Quinque weapons are equally as durable and are able to play on level terms with elemental techniques of A ranked and below in a variety of shapes and forms such as swords, shields, gauntlets, spears, etc. The Quinque can only be utilized by a Claymore as it requires a constant supply of Kurochi (costs an extra -10 per turn) and if anyone else other than a Claymore wields it the weapon will immediately feed chakra from the holder at an alarming rate until there's no more chakra left to devour. It can also be made in the image of any of the four forms of the Kagune (such as the Ukakku, Kōkaku, Rinkaku, and Bikaku), for example sprouting a tentacle from a sword. The Quinque's are A ranked in power like the Kagune and are able to change shape to whatever the Claymore wishes, so long as contact is made. The final ability of the Quinque is to, in some forms, release arcing waves and beams of concentrated Kurochi up to long ranged (A ranked in power, costing 30 chakra and dealing 60 damage). This can only be done 3 times per conflict. Only one Quinque can be wielded by the Claymore at any given time and once cancelled or destroyed there is a two turn wait before one can be formed again. A-ranked ability, costing 30 chakra to activate and lasts 4 turns. Can be used a maximum of 3 times, with a 2 turn cooldown. Paladins of the Aegis Core ♎ – Being a faction that relies heavily on defense and utility, the Aegis Core uses both Kurochi and Kagune in similar yet different ways than the other factions. Instead of absorbing the Kagune Sac into their bodies like their Vanguard counterparts, the Aegis Core Claymores have been seen to unleash the Kagune in a full coverage exoskeleton formation. This exoskeleton, called an Arata, is tough to the touch as well as alive, molding itself to the Claymore's body and ensuring everywhere is covered. While no doubt boosting the defensive capabilities of the body, allowing the wearer 30 damage shaving to physical attacks, the Arata also serves to augment the Claymore's physical attacks, giving Taijutsu techniques +20 while active. Seeing that the Arata is simply the Kagune being controlled from the outside instead of in, it is able to morph into any of the four forms of the Kagune by infusing it with Kurochi (costs -10 chakra per turn to keep active). Kurochi causes the Arata to appear pitch black forcefully shaping it into the different forms once per turn, each carrying a unique advantage. The Ukaku (Shining Feather) form allows the Arata to become ultra-lightweight without sacrificing defense. When paired with the physical enhancing properties of Kurochi on the body, this becomes something akin to releasing Leg Weights, where the user is able to move with a sort of "new speed". This allows the wearer to move in blurs very similar to the Body Flicker technique. Keep in mind this doesn't actually increase his speed in anyway, it only changes his movement from a natural fluid one to jagged, quick maneuvers, allowing him to dart from place to place and even jump as far as mid ranged (cannot be used to dodge techniques) in one bound. The Kōkaku (Shining Shell) form allows the Arata to create projectiles similar to kunais and Fuma shuriken that can be thrown up to long ranged. Being made of an organic material rivaling steel these projectiles are very lethal and can be guided to their target with chakra control thanks to an ever-present Kurochi infusion. The Rinkaku (Shining Scale) Arata form allows the wearer to spout up to four extra arms that are C ranked individually (amounting collectively as A ranked, just like the Kagune). These are can be used to aid in Taijutsu and Kenjutsu and any other forms of body arts the wearer knows but they can't mold chakra. The last Arata form, the Bikaku (Shining Tail) is a bit different. Keeping its tradition as the toughest of the Kagune forms, the Bikaku Arata can be surged with a large amount of Kurochi to increase its defensive capabilities, raising the rank of the Arata from A to S, which would allow the user to tank the damage of one S ranked elemental attack, or two A ranks, etc as well as increasing the Claymore's damage shaving to physical attacks to 40 rather than 30. S-ranked ability, costing 40 chakra to activate and lasts 3 turns. Can be used a maximum of 2 times, with a 3 turn cooldown. Chimeric Centurions of Aogiri ♎ – The most peculiar ability of the Centurion faction, it is said to have been created by the One-Eyed King himself and is based on the innate connections found between the Kagune, Koruchi, and the Claymore. The 'evolution' is first initiated by the Claymore coursing Kurochi through their Kagune, causing it to shift from blood red to jet black. By doing this the Kagune will naturally adopt some abilities of Kurochi which include degrading both the chakra and physical properties of anything it touches. The peculiar twist that comes with this infusion is the taking advantage of Kurochi's ability to forcefully manipulate the body and manipulate the Kagune itself. Based on the same principles of Awakening, the Kurochi infused Kagune will be be able to contort into horrid creations as well as an overall size, defense, and power boost (deals 80 damage rather than 60). Perhaps the most shocking change that takes over the Kagune is the organic mutation that occurs which replicates the users own organs onto the Kagune, making it almost alive-like. These organs include eyes which can see and pivot, mouths which can whisper and even eat, along with prehensile hands and ears, all of which are the Claymore's own body parts, only copied. The extra appendages would serve to help the Claymore in combat but they are foremost side effects of copious amounts of Kurochi infusion. This technique is also able to facilitate the Claymore's fusion with their Kagune further. By destroying the mutated Kagune and absorbing it into their bodies like the other two factions, the Chimeras of Aogiri can spread the JC's entirely throughout their bodies and manifest a human-sized reconstruction of the Kagune. Very different from the Aegis Core, this full-body Kagune doesn't form on the outside like armor but rather inside of the body itself. In doing so the user's skin, hair, and eyes can become pitch black. The purpose of this, is to allow the Kagune's durable structure (see S/W's of Kagune) to lay beneath the skin as a second line of defense while also to be able to come from almost every conceivable part of their bodies instead of the back alone while also causing extra appendages and organs (such as the eyes, ears, and mouths mentioned earlier) to sprout all over the Claymore's body. Of course they can control what appendage grows and where. This can cause an arm to become riddled with eyes, similar to Danzo, or even extra mouths to intimidate or speed up a feeding process. The Kagune shares the regenerative properties of the Claymore body and costs -10 chakra per turn to keep active. This means, if the Claymore uses the healing CCJ "Life Eternal" both Kagune and their bodies are healed at the same time due to the unique fusion. By having all these extra sensory based organs functioning on their bodies/Kagune, the Centurions gain an increased awareness far above regular standards, similar in nature to chakra sensing. This translates to an increase in their tracking capabilities by a factor to x3, though this does not extend to the range their sensory possesses. Quite peculiarly too, the organs are known to sometimes function autonomously of the user's control, such as the mouths whispering horrid things or the eyes staring where the Claymore isn't. S-ranked ability costing 40 chakra to activate and lasts 3 turns. Can be used a maximum of 2 times, with a 2 turn cooldown. The Black Goat's Egg reworks the traditional use of the Kagune for the Claymores, and as long as this clan technique is active they lose access to the Kagune in any other way. For higher ranking members who have access to two or more factions of the clan, to switch between each faction correspondent ability of Black Goat's Egg they will have to wait a turn for the Kagune Sac to regenerate before they can utilize it again. Doing so ends and triggers all drawbacks of the chosen faction ability early while reducing the turn limit of the next faction ability by one turn. Each faction ability damages the user by -20 per turn while active. Note: While any of the three abilities are active the Claymore loses access to the Kagune as the traditional CCW. Note: Can only be used by Heartless Ones and Above Note: Can only be used to those who accepted the Kagune transplant. Bukimina Nisshoku ♎ Ominous Eclipse Type: Supplementary/Offensive/Defensive Rank: B-S Range: Short-Long Chakra Cost: 40 (+10 per turn) Damage: 40-80 Description: Bukimina Nisshoku is one devised solely to allow the Claymore to take direct advantage of their unique and oppressive chakra nature that is Kurochi. The technique in itself could be regarded as a "shield that kills" due to its dual nature of defense and attack at the same time. It comes in levels, or increments, which deliver slightly different results depending on how much chakra is spent. It begins foremost with the Claymore transforming their body into Kurochi completely, becoming pitch black humanoid entities that can adopt any texture they deem fit; flickering like flames, flowing like water, etc. Once the Claymore has been transformed their body allows for heightened movements (x2 to current Speed) Due to the amorphous traits of Kurochi, the Claymore will be able to not only shape themselves into anything imaginable, but also fly-- through extensive manipulation. The second side to this technique is its offensive one, where anything the Claymore so much as brushes against in this form, will immediately be subjected to the heinous effects of Kurochi, where it eats away at both physical materials and chakra alike, including "intangible" forms of chakra like un-molded sources within a person or animal. If the Claymore, while in this state phases through a technique which is of a chakra type weak to Kurochi by at least one rank, they are able to break down that chakra and add it directly to their reserves with an efficiency rate of 100%, meaning none is wasted to the environment like regular Kurochi applications, due to their bodies taking the chakra in whole. If they phase through a person, they are able to suck the chakra from the bodies (depending on rank) as well as rob the body of its vitality (physical energy) leaving drained husks behind devoid of breath or chakra. For the B ranked application, up to 50 of the opponents chakra points can be drained and passed to the Claymore, at A ranked this becomes 80 and the S ranked application can siphon a whopping 120 of the opponent's chakra directly from their chakra pool i.e. it doesn't have to be molded into a technique. Of course, just like Kurochi's regular application, the Claymore is able to decide who and what gets drained, and can pass over allies and structures with no harm done. However, the technique comes with its drawbacks, naturally, which vary depending on rank. The B ranked variant allows the Claymore to enter the state for 4 turns, with a 2 turn cooldown between uses. They can only move 5 meters (Short Ranged) each turn when evading techniques with this variant. The A ranked version allows the state to be kept for 3 turns, with a 3 turn cooldown between usages, and a maximum usage limit of 3 times. The Claymore is able to move up to 15 meters (mid ranged) each turn when evading techniques. And lastly, the S ranked variant sees the state being kept for 2 turns, with a 4 turn cooldown between usages, and a maximum usage limit of twice. The Claymore is able to move up to long ranged in a single maneuver when evading techniques. Note: Claymore are able to alter their shapes on the fly to further evade techniques while in this state, costing an additional +10 chakra, but only once per turn. Note: The drawbacks for each variant is as follows; B ranked: No other Kurochi techniques above A ranked can be used following it. A ranked: No Kurochi related techniques above S ranked following its activation. S ranked: No Kurochi related techniques following its activation, and none above S in the following Erumesu no Tori: Seigen no Reberu ♎ The Bird of Hermes: Levels of Restriction Type: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive Rank: B - Forbidden Range: Short - Long Chakra: 20-50 (-20/-30 per turn) Damage: N/A (-10/-20/-30/-40 per turn) Description: The one truth to the fabled destruction of the Village Hidden in Waterfalls was that of the Claymores and their immense power. The wide scale carnage was a result of the performance of a Forbidden technique only a few even heard about much less knew how to execute. Normally, the technique, which is actually a culmination of four different acts coming together, is sealed within stone and hidden deep underground, but its secrets could easily be revealed by true Claymores who sought it. The four acts quickly became known as the "Levels of Restrictions" and consisted of Kurochi, the Claymores' dark and foul chakra, and its many uses that weren't thought conventionally possible before. The "levels" are thought to be shackles that govern the imprisonment of a great demon called Bileyg that lives within every Claymore, who's terrible form can be seen within each and every Awakening and Abyssal State, and who's Hunger and intent lies within Kurochi itself. With every level being surpassed, a Claymore is able to bring themselves closer to the Demon, losing their individuality in the sea that is its endless madness and wicked intent (essentially going mad) and upon breaching the final level, the Claymore loses themselves and becomes one with Bileyg itself. Only one level can be activated at a time. Levels of Restriction can only be activated four times over all, regardless of Level, with a three turn cool down. Level 3: The first step to becoming the Demon. This initial bound allows for Kurochi to adopt peculiar properties while under the intent of a Claymore. Foremost, the Hunger within the Claymore will become "visible" within the Kurochi. That is, a blood red hue will hover over the blackness signifying this, similar to how Bijuu chakra is colored red with hate. All subsequent Kurochi related techniques performed while in this level will cost +10 extra chakra while damaging the Claymore -20 to perform, but receives a +20 to damage. The dark energy will also become much more flexible in its destruction, too wherein the user can, once per turn, coat one of his techniques with an adequately sized amount of Kurochi (relative to the technique it is affecting) to cover it. The coating won't boost the technique's damage but rather its kill potential. When coated, the Kurochi will mask the technique's appearance. For example, a Katon technique could be masked with Kurochi which can be made to flow like water, forcing the fire to conform to its shell's shape and also flow. The Kurochi will also be thick enough so that normal sight would be unable to discern the true nature of the technique inside. This application is passive in nature, being applied while the technique is being molded, though this can only be done to one technique per turn. Level 3 is B-ranked, lasts three turns. Level 2: The breaching of the second frame will see Kurochi evolving even further. Level 2 is tasked with taking advantage of Claymores' deep connection with Kurochi. As such, Kurochi related techniques up to A-rank in this level gain +30 damage and the Claymore is able to, once per turn, perform elemental techniques up to A-rank through Kurochi constructs so long as the construct in question is within range (Short-Mid), such as a Kurochi wall emitting Chidori Nagashi or a Kurochi shield spewing a fireball. This ability can be applied passively but only once and the Claymore would still need to perform hand seals/accompanying movements if any. This level is A ranked, costs -20 chakra and damages -20 per turn. Level 2 lasts three turns. After deactivation the Claymore will be unable to perform techniques above S-ranked for two turns. Level 1: Reaching even closer to Bileyg, this level's breach sees the Kurochi corrupting the Claymore itself. They will lose their physical form and become one with the foul chakra, leaving only a silhouette of what they used to look like and two emissive spots where their eyes should be. By merging themselves with Kurochi, Kurochi related techniques up to S-rank will gain a +30 damage boost while giving the Claymore an ability to 'feel' anything the foul chakra touches such as objects, people, and techniques. This level is S-ranked, costs -30 chakra and damages -30 per turn, lasting two turns. After use the Claymore will be unable to mold techniques above A-ranked for two turns. Level 0: This level is the ultimate and final frame. The Claymore becomes one with not only the Kurochi inside and around them, but the inner demon that is Bileyg. They lose what's left of the shape they had managed to keep from level 1, and grow into the seven foot tall demon [X]. They will also begin to emit an aura of Kurochi passively from their bodies that is S ranked in power but can only extend up to 5m of their position. While this level is active, the Claymore is able to have the aura act defensively or offensively without the cost of a move but only once and the maximum range stays at 5 meters, in any direction. Kurochi related techniques up to Forbidden rank are boosted by +40 in this level but the Claymore suffers a -40 damage penalty upon activation and -40 in the next turn. Level 0 is Forbidden ranked and lasts 2 turns. After deactivation the Claymore will be unable to perform techniques above B-ranked for three turns. Note: Must be at least Ghoul rank to perform. Ghouls are only capable of Level 3. Note: Heartless rank is able to perform all Levels excepting 0. Note: Phantasmal rank and up may perform all Levels.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
