Koby strode directly to the guard post at the front gate, addressing them calmly and informing them of the incoming attack. He understood they would be hesitant to believe the word of a complete stranger, however through his Byakugan, he could see the small force of bandits still on the approach, and he was adamant to stop them before causing a commotion. After a little convincing, the guards split off to inform the rest of the on-duty roster, while Koby explained that he would go out and deal with them, while they get prepared.
Striding out of the gate and facing west, he moved with a calm that he would not of had in the past. These people didn't deserve their celebration to be ruined, they were innocent and he was not about to allow them to experience any suffering on this night. Standing alone on the wind swept field, his coat billowing in the breeze, he inhaled sharply and called out in a loud voice, cracking slightly as he spoke.
"Please, stop this! Consider this for a moment. There are families here, children. People are celebrating, they’re happy. Don’t do this. I'm begging you, walk away. There's no need for anyone to get hurt."
Koby stood rigidly, praying that the bandits would have some form of common sense and leave willingly. His hopes were dashed however when the presence of someone new, someone strong appeared within his vision. He could see the bandits were nervous, they were scared of this person. And with a single command from this imposing figure, the bandits yelled, and bounded forward toward Koby.
The first bandit raised a weapon high as he charged forward. Koby maneuvered to the left of the downward swing, his hand striking the wrist of the man, his weapon flying from his grip. Following up, he strikes with his palm decisively into the chest of the man, sending him flying backward into two more oncoming bandits. From his side, two more bandits rushed him. While lowering his body and twisting, he would sweep their legs with his own, toppling them to the ground. From his low position, he would then launch himself away from the 5 grounded bandits, gaining at least 10 meters distance.
From behind him, he saw another bandit charge, this one much larger then the others, the ground almost shaking with each step he took. As he came down into a straight punch, Koby would tilt his body enough to avoid the blow, grabbing the wrist of his foe and twisting his body. Using the momentum of the bandit, he would use some fancy footwork to make the large man trip and hit the ground hard as he tossed him cleanly over his shoulder, slamming him into the dirt. From this position, he would push himself into a handstand, pushing off the ground as two bandits swung blades, cutting the air where Koby was just before. From his aerial position, he would kick the two of them in the heads with his feet, before rolling on his shoulder to a three point landing position.
As he viewed the field from his position, he could see the other bandits begin to halt and hesitate, after witnessing the martial display.
"You can stop this now! No-one else has to be hurt."
He was hoping the bandits would see the error in their actions, take a hint and leave for good. But that figure in the back, obviously the one in charge, commanded a presence like no other. With a single glance, he rallied the rest of the bandits, urging them to charge without any caution. As the ground trembled beneath the stampede Koby would make a definitive decision. Gathering his chakra, he would perform a series of handsigns before slamming his hands on the ground, releasing the gathered chakra into the earth and underneath the bandits.
The ground crumbled and bubbled as tar like liquid burst out the ground, forcing the running bandits to falter and trip into the shallow quagmire. The pit only deep enough to restrain and capture the bandits. All except the one in back, who had avoided the earth jutsu with an expertise that screamed 'This is nothing'. This man, was a ninja, a shinobi like himself. With the rest of the bandits safely restrained. Koby would start moving around the edge of his jutsu, the opposing ninja mirroring his movements.
"You're an interesting one ya know!" The enemy ninja called out to Koby "It would have been so much easier for yourself if you had just minded your own business!"
"Some of us would rather see the good in the world, and protect the ones who cannot protect themselves!" Koby called out with a slight shake in his voice. This man made his nervous.
"Ya know, something that is bothering me. That Byakugan of yours. Most would assume that makes you a member of the Hyuga clan, but you don't fight like a Hyuga. And that pisses me off!"
Koby watched at the opposing ninja took a stance, a familiar one. Poised readiness, not aggression. Their legs were placed just shy of shoulder-width, knees slightly bent, and weight perfectly balanced for instant movement. The arms are held loosely in front of the body, forearms parallel to the ground. Their hands are open, with palms facing forward, fingers extended but relaxed.
With a calm, almost haunting voice. The opposing ninja said a single word. "Byakugan!"

Type: Supplementary
Rank: C
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 15 (+5 per turn to keep active)
Damage: N/A
Description: The kekkei genkai intrinsic to both the Hyūga and Ōtsutsuki clans—descendants of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki. Those who possess this dōjutsu have it manifested as eyes with featureless white irides and no visible pupils. And when activated, the pupils become more distinct and the veins near their temples bulge. To activate the dōjutsu, Hyuga but not Ōtsutsuki clan members are initially obliged to use a rather long and specific sequence of handseals: Horse → Tiger → Boar → Hare → Rat → Dog → Horse → Dog → Hare → Rat → Boar → Snake. But once activated, the dōjutsu user is endowed with a range of skills.
To start, an activated Byakugan gives the user a near 360º diameter field of vision bar one blind spot at the back of the neck, above the first thoracic vertebra. Its vision can penetrate through any solid objects or obstructions, and likewise remains unaffected by blinding interferences. But that being said, certain barriers and the like may distort its perception. In addition, it is able to follow high-speed movements, which enables those with this dōjutsu to analyze their foes' actions and better react to them. The Byakugan is also able to see chakra to a higher degree than the Sharingan and ergo, identify where a person's chakra signature originates from. Beyond that, it can discern certain types of clones from the real person. And its ability to see chakra is in fact so acute that those who possess this dōjutsu are even able to see the chakra pathway system and the 361 tenketsu that comprise it. The Hyūga clan has gone so far as to develop their unique Gentle Fist style in order to capitalize on this particular ability.
Note: Hyuga clan bios of at least Jonin rank become able to passively activate their dōjutsu upon one month having passed since Gentle Fist training concluded. Ōtsutsuki bios never need to expend a move in order to activate it.
Note: While traversing the NW, bios with activated Byakugan are able to see up to two 2 adjacent landmarks away while those of sage rank can see as far as three away, but this doesn't extend beyond an ocean landmark.

Chakra: 30 - 50 (30)
Damage: N/A
Description: The user will first perform Boar → Tiger and then by changing the surface of an object beneath an enemy into mud and creating a non flammable swamp, the user can sink his enemy into the mud. The adhesive, chakra-infused mud ensnares the enemy's body, making it almost impossible to recover one's strength and escape from the swamp. The size and depth of the created swamp depends on the user's skill and the amount of chakra used, but if the user is an expert in this technique, it will always be possible to make a thick, newer impossible to move in swamp which is extremely effective against a great number of enemies or when having to face gigantic creatures.
Note: A rank use can extend up to mid range and will cause a target to become engulfed after one turn and suffocate after taking 60 damage per turn.
Note: S rank use can only be used by Primary Earth Specialists and can extend up to a single landmark in range and will cause a target to become engulfed and suffocate after one turn, taking 80 damage per turn.
Note: Forbidden ranked use can only be used by Jiraiya and Komi bios. It can only be used 2 times and is causing targets engulfed to suffocate in a single turn and can be up to 100 meters deep and wide and/or up to two landmarks. After ending, the user cannot use for 2 turns.
