Rain Training

[Kuroh]

(Ame no Yari) - Rain Spear​

How you perform it: To start off, I begin to gather my chakra and release it onto the rain. This condenses the rain into one place and I manipulate the rain to take the form of a large spear. Once the spear has been created, I perform the hand seal that was shown to me, this causes the spear to fall on my target, piercing through it and causing the target some damage.

Advantages: I guess it's nice that the water can stay in the form of a spear before performing the hand seal to strike your opponent, since I can use any weapons like shurikens or Kunais to distract the opponent and then perform the hand seal striking the opponent while distracted.

Disadvantages: Um, I guess the fact that water stays in the form of spear for only three turns and the fact that the spear could be easily be defended against.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I can use a strong wind jutsu to blow the clouds away. I could use the hardening technique which would allow me to take the hit and receiving no damage whatsoever. I could also use the light weight technique and just move quickly out of the way before the spear strikes me.

(Ame Nottori no Jutsu) - Rain Capture Technique​

How you perform it: To start off I gather chakra and I send it towards my opponent just like a genjutsu but the chakra inside my opponent attracts raindrops which begin to fall on him and attach themselves on the target, this makes it harder for the target to move and once a lot of water is attached to their body, they will hold the target in place by the raindrops attached to the ground.

Advantages: I really like this technique: I can use this and take advantage of the fact that my opponent will have trouble to move, so I can attempt to strike him with taijutsu and he would have trouble defending himself. He would also have trouble performing a jutsu that takes a few hand seals to perform, leaving him open for any attack of mine.

Disadvantages: I guess this jutsu takes time to fully work, the opponent could do something about it before the raindrops attach his body to the ground. Once he sees a few of them attaching themselves to his body, he can take action.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: Dodging it with light weight technique.

Elaborate at the second how you would use the jutsu to save yourself.

 

[Kuroh]

What I meant was once I feel some raindrops sticking to my body, I would use the light weight technique to to move faster and strike my opponent in close range, thus stopping his jutsu.

Aaah, okay. Thanks for explaining ^^

(Ame Bunshin) - Raining Clones
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that creates false clones of the user around drops of rain. Every clone is totally harmless and is destroyed by one hit or if they collide with the ground or the enemy. This technique is used as more of a distraction than anything.

Focus yoru chakra and create a false clone from the rain. The clone is a mere illusion of sorts and it completely harmless. By one hit they will be destroyed.

(Gouu no Jutsu) - Heavy Rain Technique
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that actually uses the victim's clothing as a medium to effect him or her. By filling the clothing with water-elemental chakra the user causes the clothing to fully retain all water it comes in contact with which will gradually cause the clothing to become heavier and heavier. Unfortunately, this jutsu that does not create water, so it is only useful in a rainy or otherwise wet environment

Focus your chakra and send it towards the opponent, or rather onto their clothes. Attract rain to the clothes and enable them to retain all the water in the clothes. This will eventually cause the clothes to become heavier to the point where it is hard to move for the opponent.

 

[Kuroh]

My apologies for being lazy and not explaining when I had to.

(Ame Bunshin) - Raining Clones​

How you perform it: I start off by gathering a good amount of chakra. Once I've gathered enough I release all of the chakra into the rain once both infuse, my opponent begins to see some clones in short range.

Advantages: Just like the description of the jutsu says it's used for distractions. The fact that the jutsu only works in short range means that the clones can serve as distractions while I strike my opponent with taijutsu or kenjutsu.

Disadvantages: It's just a distraction and false clones. Once they make contact with anything they disappear.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: Once I see the clones I can use a wind jutsu to blow the clones away from me. The B-rank peacock whirlwind technique comes to mind which is a jutsu that surrounds the user's with a whirlwind blowing everything away. In this case the wind would blow the rain drops away canceling the clones.

(Gouu no Jutsu) - Heavy Rain Technique​

How you perform it: I start off by gathering chakra and then releasing it onto my opponent. Once this has been done, the chakra I sent to my opponent begins to attract rain drops to his clothes to the point were he struggles to move because the rain causes his clothes to get heavier and heavier.

Advantages: Useful jutsu, this makes the opponent's clothes get heavier so once that happens my opponent will struggle to move so this allows me to strike him with taijutsu or just attack him with any jutsu that would require him to move at a certain speed. He would also perform hand seals at a slower pace.

Disadvantages: Like the jutsu above, once the opponent feels the rain drops making his clothes heavier he can blow all of the rain away with a strong wind jutsu.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I can create a earth dome and once inside of it I can hide underground and then strike my opponent from behind.

Sorry for my late reply, let's continue!

(Ame Kumo Bunshin) - Rain Cloud Clone
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that creates a clone from the Rain clouds in the sky. The clone resembles the user but keeps the appearance of moving clouds with only the shape and color of the user. Because of this the clouds cannot be used as a distraction. The clones are able to attack and receive attacks.

Focus your chakra and use it to create a clone of yourself from the rain clouds in the sky. It will obviously resemble yourself as it is a clone, but it will also keep the appearance of moving clouds. Obviously it cannot be used as distraction as it still looks like clouds. What is it good for you ask? Well, it can attack (and be attacked). This way you can attack from above and from your own position.

(Ame Ame Tama) - Raining Rain Bullets
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user does the necessary handseals and focuses chakra into the rain, the rain draws together and forms several bullets of rain. The "bullets" fall at an accelerated rate and feel like large rocks falling from the sky.

Perform the necessary handseals as you focus your chakra and use it to draw together some rain into several bullets. The bullets, because they are heavier and overall bigger, will fall at an accelerated rate and will feel to the opponent like large rocks that fall from the sky upon them.

 

[Kuroh]

(Ame Kumo Bunshin) - Rain Cloud Clone

How you perform it: After listening to the instructions I gather a good amount of chakra. Once I've done that I release my chakra onto the rain, creating a clone that resembles me but it keeps the form of clouds. The clone attacks a dummy from above while I throw some kunais at it.

Advantages: Can attack which is great. My opponent would be concentrated on both my clone and I, leaving him open to any sneaky attacks.

Disadvantages: It cannot be used as a distraction because the clone obviously has the form of clouds. It is also easy to defend against as my opponent could simply blow the clone away with a strong wind jutsu.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I would personally use a wind jutsu to blow the clone away. Since this jutsu can only be used in short range I could use the Peacock Whirlwind Formation jutsu which works by swinging the sword releasing wind that surrounds the user, blowing the clone and my opponent away.

(Ame Ame Tama) - Raining Rain Bullets

How you perform it: I start off by performing the necessary hand seals, this allows me to gather chakra and then release it onto the rain. This causes the rain to draw together and form into several bullets of rain. Once created the bullets fall at an accelerated rate and feel like large rocks falling from the sky. They strike multiple dummies I had set up earlier.


Advantages: Since the user creates multiple bullets then this jutsu covers a large area. Also since this bullets feel as large rocks falling from the sky then they have a lot of destructive power.


Disadvantages: Hmm guess that you can't control them to move them around as they're falling. Once the opponent notices them it is easy to defend against.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I could create a earth shelter, the earth dome jutsu comes to mind. Hiding underground works to but the one that makes the most sense is to blow the clouds away.

(Toku no Ame) - Shield of Rain
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: User performs the necessary handseals and places their hands out in front of them. Using chakra they gather up a large amount of rain and create a wall of solid water. The water is dense and difficult to move through, thus protecting the user from most taijutsu attack and fire attacks. Earth based jutsu and Lighting jutsu are highly effective against this technique. The user must keep his hands connected into the wall at all times or the wall will return to its normal state. If struck by electricity it will move through the water and strike the user as well.

Focus your chakra and perform the needed handseals. Then place your hands out in front of you, using your chakra to gather a large amount of rain to create a wall of solid water in front of you. You have to keep your hands connected into the wall at all times or it will fall apart in normal water. Whilst using this jutsu it protects you from most taijutsu and fire techniques.

(Ooki Kouu no Jutsu) - Big Rain Skill
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: By sending subtle chakra waves into the clouds, the user is able to create unusually large nuclei for the water droplets to condense on. The end result is big raindrops that fall to the ground at a faster then normal rate. They aren't big or fast enough to cause any real damage, but they are quite distracting.

Focus your chakra and send it into the sky to create a large nuclei for the water droplets to condense on. This will result in big raindrops that fall towards the ground at an accelerated speed.

 

[Kuroh]

(Toku no Ame) - Shield of Rain​

How you perform it: I start off by performing the necessary hand seals and then I start to gather a good amount of chakra which I quickly channel onto both of my hands. Once that has been done I place both of my hands out in front of me and using the chakra I gathered I create a solid wall of water. To keep the wall of water together I keep my hands out and on the water.


Advantages: Like the descriptions says this is a good technique that is strong enough to block most taijutsu techniques and fire jutsus.


Disadvantages: You need to keep your hands on the water wall if not the water disperses. Also having your hands on the water can be dangerous because the opponent can release a current of electricity and shock the user of the wall.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I can create stone spikes that rise under the shield basically absorbing the water. I could also use the C-rank lightning ball and throw it at the wall of water which would shock my opponent.

Questions?: N/A

(Ooki Kouu no Jutsu) - Big Rain Skill​

How you perform it: After finishing with the first jutsu I move on and start to gather chakra again which I send onto the clouds in the sky. This creates a large nuclei for the water droplets to condense on which ends up making the rain drops to fall on the ground at a faster rate, however, they're not big and fast enough to cause damage but they distract my opponent.


Advantages: The rain drops fall faster which distracts my opponent


Disadvantages: This is just a jutsu to distract your opponent, even though they rain drops fall at a faster rate they do not cause any damage whatsoever.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I can use a strong wind jutsu to blow the clouds away thus stopping this jutsu.

[Mephistopheles]

The first defence, how would the stone spikes absorb water? I mean, of course earth can absorb a bit of water, but if you have a small puddle of rain on the ground, the ground does not soak it up quickly. Maybe if it is sand or really dry ground, but you cannot guarantee it.

I know, it was a lazy reply by me sorry. It won't happen again. Instead I'll give you another way to defend myself.

I can release an A or S-rank wind technique to blow the water away or rather my opponent, this would get rid of the water wall.

 

[Mephistopheles]

Good, now I'm happy again ^.^

(Shuushi Ame) - Stop Rain
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique defines the users chakra control and for tactical measures for other techniques. The user creates the necessary handseals and every rain drop stops in mid air or wherever they are

Focus your chakra, perform the necessary handseals and use your chakra on the falling raindrops to take control over them and stop them from falling. As they are stopped, they will stay still in mid-air.

(Ame Aikuchi) - Rain Dagger
Rank: B
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: A simple jutsu that gathers the rain with chakra and then forms it into a dagger-like weapon. The chakra gives the water a more solid form so that it can be used for attacks. The water returns to normal shortly after creation. When the dagger cuts into something the water from the dagger expands within the cut to increase the damage.

Focus your chakra and use it to gather raindrops which you mould into a dagger-like weapon. Due to infusing your chakra in the created weapon, it gives it more density so that it can be used for attacks instead of a splash of water in the face xD When you use the dagger to cut someone it automatically expands the cut with the water to increase the damage.

 

[Kuroh]

(Shuushi Ame) - Stop Rain​

How you perform it: I start off by gathering a good amount of chakra which I then send into the rain. Once my chakra is in the rain I perform a few hand seals that allow me to take control of the rain and stop it from falling. The rain is stopped and stay in mid air.

Advantages: I guess it would stop my opponent from using rain techniques himself. Can't come up with anything good.


Disadvantages: It's not really an attack but only a small distraction and the advantage is also a disadvantage since the user won't be able to use rain techs on that turn.

How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: Erm there's no need to defend against this technique but I would blow all the rain drops away with an A-rank or above wind jutsu since my character wouldn't exactly know what's the opponent planning to do.

Questions?: N/A

(Ame Aikuchi) - Rain Dagger​

How you perform it: After listening to the instructions I start to gather a good amount of chakra which I use to gather raindrops until it takes the form of a dagger-like weapon and because I sent my chakra into the weapon it gives it more density so that it can strike as a real weapon and not a splash of water. I send the dagger to a clone a created earlier, cutting the clone and instantly it expands the cut increasing the damage the clone takes.


Advantages: It travels from above I guess, so it can surprise the opponent. The dagger would cut through your opponent and things just like a real dagger instead of just splashing.


Disadvantages: I guess that you can't control the direction the dagger travels.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: There's many ways, I could use an S-rank wind jutsu to blow the water away. I can also use the B-rank earth dome that protects me from above or even harden my body.

(Amagasa no Jutsu) - Umbrella Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A helpful technique for staying dry in the rain. After a few short handsigns, the user can create an invisible umbrella by extending their arm over their head and holding an open palm towards the sky. This "umbrella stops all rain, but cannot stop jutsu that take a more solid form like the Rain spear technique. This technique was actually made to stop the acid rain technique and other average falling rain techniques from touching the user.

Focus your chakra while you perform the needed handseals, then extend your arm into the sky and release the chakra through your hand, this will create an umbrella which will stop the rain above you from hitting you. It does not work when the rain is somehow hardened or the likes.

(Touketsu Ame Nottori no Jutsu) - Frozen Rain Capture Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 20
Damage Points: N/A
Description: An advance version of rain capture where the user bounces the rain into the clouds.The higher up they go the more colder they get untill they freeze and come falling down(similar to hail)in the form of a net or a dome to capture the opponent.

Focus your chakra and send it into the clouds to make the rain bounce higher before it falls to the ground. Because it is colder higher in the sky, the rain will freeze and fall down like hail. When it does, you use your chakra in the drops to create a dome or net from it to capture your opponent.

 

[Kuroh]

(Amagasa no Jutsu) - Umbrella Technique​

How you perform it: After listening to the instructions I focus my chakra while at the same time I perform the needed hand seals. I then follow up by extending my right arm into the sky and I release all of the gathered chakra through my hand. This creates an umbrella which stops the rain from hitting me.


Advantages: This almost stops every rain technique except for the ones that get hardened. Stops the rain so the opponent won't be able to shock the user with lightning.


Disadvantages: Useless against techniques like the rain spear, rain bullets, basically any technique that is hardened. I guess that the user has to keep his focus to keep the umbrella working so he won't be able to use other jutsus.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: Well I would use the rain dagger technique which would travel through the umbrella and strike my opponent.

(Touketsu Ame Nottori no Jutsu) - Frozen Rain Capture Technique​

How you perform it: I start off by gathering a good amount of chakra which I then send into the sky and into the clouds. This causes the rain to bounce higher before it falls into the ground and the rain freezes and falls down like hail. I then manipulate the cold rain and create a dome that traps my opponent.


Advantages: You can become creative and depending on the situation create a dome or net. Once you capture the opponent could use a close range technique, the stone spikes come to mind.


Disadvantages: The technique falls in a straight, I doubt you can take control of where it falls.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I could create an earth dome which protects me from above. I could also get away from the area by using the wind stream technique.

(Touketsu Ame Aikuchi) - Frozen Rain Dagger
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: An advance version of rain daggers where the user bounces the rain into the clouds.The higher up they go the more colder they get until they freeze and come falling down(similar to hail).

Focus your chakra and send it into the sky to make the rain that will fall out off the clouds bounce back further into the clouds first to freeze up. Once the rain drops are frozen, they will fall down towards the ground, hitting your opponent like large hail.

(Touketsu Ame Ittou) - Frozen Rain Blade
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: An advance version of rain blade where the user bounces the rain into the clouds.The higher up they go the more colder they get until they freeze and come falling down(similar to hail) and unlike the original they do not turn back into rain until after 3 turns.

Basically this is exactly the same as the technique before this, the only difference is that the rain will not turn back to water, but rather stay it's frozen self for three turns.

 

[Kuroh]

(Touketsu Ame Aikuchi) - Frozen Rain Dagger

How you perform it: I start off by gathering some chakra which I send onto the sky. Once I do that I manipulate my chakra and cause the rain that will fall out off the clouds bounce back further into the clouds first to freeze up and then they start to fall down and should strike my target like a large hail.


Advantages: The hail is larger and stronger and should cause more damage.


Disadvantages: I guess since their bugger my opponent should be able to see them.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I can create a earth dome which protects my entire body from the large hail. I could also use a strong wind jutsu to blow the clouds away.

(Touketsu Ame Ittou) - Frozen Rain Blade


How you perform it: I start off by gathering some chakra which I send onto the sky. Once I do that I manipulate my chakra and cause some cold rain daggers to fall from the sky.

Advantages: The technique doesn't turn into water like the last one.


Disadvantages: My opponent should be able to notice it because the change in the weather, I assume since they are really cold he would feel it.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: I can use the earth hardening technique. I could also like stated above create a earth dome or I could blow away the rain itself including the clouds with a stronger wind jutsu.

My god, it has been a while. My sincere apologies!

Let's quickly continue!

(Hougeki Arare) - Bombarding Hail
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: Using this jutsu requires great chakra control, performing hand seals and sending chakra into the clouds. After a bit of development,(three turns) a ninja will form the precipitation of the cloud into hail. This hail will fall for a brief time from the clouds and by chakra control be targeted at the opponent.
Note:must have clouds in the sky to use this jutsu.

Focus your rain chakra and perform the needed handseals whereafter you send your gathered chakra into the clouds. After three turns you can form the rain that falls out of the sky into hail which will damage teh opponent.
Must be sharp hail!

(Setsumou) - Snow Blindness
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Shot-Mid
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: Used in conjunction with the Hidden Mist skill this makes things even more difficult to see. If used without the Hidden Mist skill, it is far less effective.The user makes snow begin to fall from the sky as thick as possible. This, of course, effects both the user and the opponent's vision.
Note:This jutsu must have rain clouds to perform and the snow takes three turns to fall and lasts for 3 turns.
Restrictions:Can only be used three times per battle.

Focus your water chakra and first perform the hidden mist skill!
Once you have done that and the mist was created around you it is difficult to see through, but then you will add a bit of extra difficulty. Focus your rain chakra and send it into the sky, once you have done this you can manipulate the clouds to create snow which falls out of the sky. This will even more blind the opponent! Let it snow, let it snow, let it snooooowwww~

 

[Kuroh]

(Hougeki Arare) - Bombarding Hail

How you perform it: After listening to the instructions I perform the needed hand seals which allow me to gather a large amount of chakre which I then send towards the clouds. After a while I manipulate my chakra, causing the rain to fall in the form of hail which should damage my opponent.


Advantages: I guess that after the turns you need to wait the attack should actually come as a surprise to my opponent. It can also damage multiple opponents.


Disadvantages: The range is limited and to be honest it takes a lot of time to be able to use it. Nothing guarantees you'll be alive after the three turns.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: Since it can only be used in short range I would probably go ahead and use a technique to move to mid or long range since it wouldn't reach me.

Questions?: N/A






(Setsumou) - Snow Blindness

How you perform it: To start off I gather some water chakra in my mouth and once I have enough I release it in the form of a thick mist which should cover the entire area, blocking everyone's vision. Once that has been done I start to gather a large amount of rain chakra which I send into the sky. I follow up by manipulating the chakra infused with the clouds, creating snow which starts to fall from the sky, this should make the battlefield less visible.


Advantages: Pretty cool jutsu to use and the only reason is because I'm a Valentine. Since this covers the whole battlefield and it blocks everyone's vision but I consider it cool because I can sense the life force in the battlefield, so I should be able to know where exactly my opponent is.


Disadvantages: Doesn't cause any damage and to be honest the technique can backfire and is a disadvantage for the user himself. Only way I'll use this technique is if I'm using my Valentine.


How would you defend yourself from this jutsu: You don't have to defend, if my opponent uses it, I'll take advantage of it and use the silent homocide technique which kills any sound I make as I move and strike my opponent.

(Suiton: Kouu no Fukkou) - Water Style: Rain's Renaissance
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage Points: N/A
Description: The user slams his hand on the ground and sends a large wave of chakra into the ground. This wave of chakra causes all small, nearby sources of water to fly back into the clouds to replenish them. This has little effect on natural storms but on artificial ones it can be used multiple times to lengthen it almost indefinitely.

Focus your chakra and slam your hand onto the ground, releasing your chakra to create a wave of rain water which causes water from the ground to fly back into the clouds so it can fall as rain again.

(Kyuutai no Ame) - Orb of Rain
Rank: A
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: After a long line of handseals, the user is able to place a large amount of chakra into their hands and gather rain towards their palms. The user must begin running towards the target of the jutsu, once enough rain has been gathered and condensed to form a fist sized orb of water in the user's hand, the user must place their hand near the target. The orb of water will "explode" pushing enemies back and creating openings for attacks.

Focus your chakra whilst performing handseals to channel the focused chakra into your hands. Once you've done this you attract a lot of rain towards your palms. As you do this you will need to run towards the opponent but at the same time you create an orb of the water which you can make explode whilst in range of the opponent so it will push them back.
