Kōtetsu Inuzuka

Fenriru No Gimuzuke | Fenrir's Lesser Oblige (Always Active, Reference)
Rank: S
Type: Supplementary/Offensive/Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra: 40 ( -15 per turn )
Damage: N/A
Description: This technique was designed to rectify the weaknesses of managing multiple bodies within Battle. Many Inuzuka found that their Ninkens became easy targets for area of effect Ninjutsu techniques, and often experienced problems with defending from widespread attacks without compromising their Ninkens health or position. As such this technique was developed as a fix for these flaws. This technique allows an Inuzuka to enter into a lasting fusion with their Ninken(s). While fused the Ninken will inhabit the user's body and the user will gain the ability to use techniques that require 'Four-Legged Beast' transformation as a prerequisite and will also gain the senses of their Ninken. The Ninken(s) will be aware of the world through the user's senses however their mind and chakra systems will remain separate. The Inuzuka however will still be capable of tapping into their Ninken's chakra supply and will be capable of using it to bolster their own supply for future techniques. Lastly, fused Ninken can demerge from their host body at any point in time, and can also choose to re-emerge without cost. Merging and de-merging however is not instant, instead, it simply functions as a Ninken or Inuzuka walking outside of the host's body - and as such is far inferior to the merging abilities of Souma No Kou. One added benefit is that a host can have appendages such as tails or wolf ears that can prove useful in combat but are largely cosmetic, the main host can also be switched at will - housing the user and other Ninken(s) within a Ninken's body instead.

Note:
- Must be posted at either the start of the battle or in the user's biography, and is active at all times.
- In the case of deactivation (On the user's account or as a result of an enemy technique) this technique can be reactivated again at the cost of a move. Each reactivation will require more chakra than the last, doubling each time.
- This technique serves as the ultimate baseline form for Inuzuka clan members. After using another transformation the user is capable of reverting back to this form without completely canceling the previous transformation, instead, they retain the physiological benefits of the other transformation (Such as increased sensing and other abilities) and are also capable of re-entering the previously activated transformation without cost as it is still considered active. (Does not distort or ignore turn restrictions)
(Ani) Brother (Always Active, Reference)
TType: Supplementary
Rank: N/A
Range: N/A
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage: N/A
Description: Keotsu's legendary blade Mythos has been with him through trials and tribulations of all sorts; and in turn, Keotsu has used his strength to help his friends through their own challenges. The strength Keotsu could offer was always limited, though, as so many of his teachings were made with his own blade in mind. This technique allows others to use Mythos, when they normally could not. Because Mythos is tied to Keotsu's soul, he will perform a small ritual with one that Keotsu is incredibly close to: Keotsu will place Mythos in its entirety atop one of his brothers-in-arms' weapons, and coat it in an incredibly thin layer of the Mythril that Mythos is made of. In this action, Keotsu accepts this person into his soul, marking them as someone of great importance to him. This imparts the weapon with all the abilities of Mythos.
*Note: Cannot be used in battle. The purpose of this technique is to allow others to be able to use Mythos.
*Note: True to the blade, if a piece of Mythos is ever used against Keotsu, this technique will "deactivate", and that person will be as if they could not have used Mythos in the first place.
*Note: Those who Keotsu teaches "Brother" will be able to use (Ten'notsurugi: Mythos, Jinsei no Sāberu) Astrum Sword: Mythos, Vita Saber with all of its abilities, including access to the Legendary Command Arts.
(Tennotsurugi: Mythos, Jinsei no Sāberu) Astrum Sword: Mythos, Vita Saber (Reference)
Rank: N/A
Type: Weapon
Range: N/A
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage: +20 to Kenjutsu and Command Arts
Description: "The Blade of Heaven...Mythos the Life Sabre. One of the Ten Shinning Weapons." When Keotsu returned to the known continent from his journey to regions unknown, he returned with his blade Mythos in a new form; some secret event took place which reconfigured the blade and created a powerful connection between Keotsu and the sword. The Mythril blade retained its ability to change it's shape, but not it's mass when subjected to Keotsu's chakras, as did the scabbard of the weapon, though the two were no longer explicitly linked. A few improvements were noted by Keotsu, though: the blade seemed to resonate better than before, boosting his powers in battle: offensive Kenjutsu techniques and Command Arts have their power increased by +20, and defensive and supplementary Kenjutsu and Command Arts are increased in their effectiveness by +20 (that is, a defensive technique that is A-rank (60 damage) would be capable of now defending from an S-rank (80 damage) ; second, the blade came to reject energies that were foreign to Keotsu - that's to say, for example, if an enemy tried to use Nagashi after grabbing the blade, the energy would stop completely due to the nature of the blade's composition. This particular power comes about from the blade's new found synergy with Keotsu, in an effort to prevent it from being used against him. Retaining all the properties of the metal it was forged from, Mythos is indestructible and will never dull, in any of its forms.*The user can manipulate the blade’s form during battle at any time, but it costs 35 chakra to do so, and also counts towards one of that turn’s three allotted moves.
*Can only be wielded by Keotsu. When someone else tries to hold the blade, it will reject their chakra and increase its density exponentially, making it to heavy to be lifted. However, it reverts to its original density when Keotsu is holding it.
*While the sword can transform into different types of weapons, like a katana or spear, it is bound by its mass, meaning that the form it takes on has to be within the realms of creating from the same amount of matter.
*While Mythos is in hand, Keotsu is unable to cast Genjutsu at all.
(Yōton/Fuuinjutsu: Kokū no Zantō - Sorarisu) Yang Release/Sealing Art: Remnants of the Void - Solaris
(Yōton/Fuuinjutsu: Kokū no Zantō - Sorarisu) Yang Release/Sealing Art: Remnants of the Void - Solaris
Type: Supplementary
Rank: S
Range: Short
Chakra: 80 (-10 per turn)
Damage: N/A
Description: Solaris is a unique Advanced Fuuinjutsu seal placed on the body that incorporates Yang chakra. This seal works by passively siphoning Yang chakra from the user’s body and storing it, with the seal being capable of storing up to 80 chakra in total. Making use of the body’s condition as a trigger this seal will activate whenever the user falls unconscious as a result of an enemy technique. Upon activation it floods the user’s body with the previously stored chakra, purging any invading chakra and healing the body by the amount of chakra stored within the seal and essentially “breathing life” back into the user, allowing them to regain consciousness as the invading chakra is flushed from their system. In addition to resuscitation, the user’s constitution will be temporarily boosted for the following two turns due to the abundant Yang chakra, making them immune to Spiritual techniques with less chakra than that stored in the seal. While this energy heals physical wounds, it does nothing to mitigate the damage done to the spirit, meaning that if the user’s health is depleted through damage done spiritually, this technique will not resuscitate them. Due to the overwhelming amount of Yang energy present within the body, the user will be unable to make use of Yin release, other Spiritual techniques, or elemental techniques for the following two turns. Their speed is also reduced by -3 levels, and they are unable to use techniques above A-rank for the same duration.

Notes:
- This technique must be placed on the user’s biography.
- This technique can only be used once per battle, with the seal’s activation counting as a move.
- Upon resuscitation, this technique will heal the user up to the amount of chakra stored in the seal, though it cannot recover HP lost from spiritual damage
(Sagīnjōzu) - The Sanguine Maw
Type: Relic Weapon
Rank: Forbidden
Range: N/A
Chakra: N/A
Damage: 80
Description: The Sanguine Maw is a two-handed and double-edged axe crafted from Tiamat’s ivory bones. At the base of the grip is a single crystalline orb flickering with black and white energies representative of a fully powered weapon core. The axe is bound to the Boar seal and can be summoned to the user or sealed passively at their discretion. When wielded with two hands the user can, at the cost of a move, swing the axe to inflict 80 damage.

Intrinsic Traits:

Sanguine Affinity (I-III): Fortifies the user’s vitality, enhancing their health by an additional 20/40/60 points. (II)
Roiling Blood (I-III): The intensity of battle augments the user’s power. Increases all damage by 10/15/20% of Health Points missing from biography’s maximum Health, up to a maximum of 40.
Fortified Anatomy (I-III): Enhanced physical durability confers the user a passive damage reduction to physical-based techniques. Reduces physical damage taken by 10/20/30 points. (I)

Exsanguination (I-II): Exsanguination is a devastating ability that combines the power of Roiling Blood with the user’s own overwhelming life force, augmented by the Sanguine Maw. The ability manifests on the Maw as blood, a physical representation of the user’s own lost health. When unleashed it forms a crescent blood wave, launched at the speed of twice an S-Rank Water Release technique and neutral to all techniques it clashes with. It has a long-range reach. The damage it inflicts is correlated to 125%/150% of Health Points currently missing. Tier II Exsanguination passively affords the user a 50% reduction to all effects of Health Fatigue. This passive is not active when Exsanguination is on cooldown. Can be used twice per battle, once every ten turns.

Blood Brawler
A warrior born in blood and battle. Alters the appearance of Sanguine Maw into that of a one-handed axe, allowing its swings to be performed with a single hand.

Sanguinary (B-Rank, active): A skill that enhances the benefit conferred by Fortified Anatomy, exchanging its passive benefit for a significantly increased physical damage reduction. The drawback is that it increases the damage intake of Spiritual-based techniques by 50%. This ability lasts for three turns and reduces physical damage by 30/50/80. Can be used twice per battle, once every three turns. While on cooldown the effects of Fortified Anatomy remain inert.
Bloodied Veteran (A-Rank, passive): Passively strengthens Roiling Blood, increasing its damage enhancement to 30/40/50% of the user’s missing Health Points in exchange for it only being applied to Taijutsu and Bukijutsu. Cannot be applied to elemental Taijutsu.
Reborn in Blood (S-Rank, passive): When the user’s Health Points fall to zero they will passively gain a single point of health back, allowing them to continue fighting. Can be activated once per arc.
Tunnel Vision (S-Rank, active): For a moment the user is able to ignore the effects of Health Fatigue and pain entirely, becoming an unrelenting scourge. This technique lasts for two turns or until an enemy is not within short-range of the user. Can be activated twice per battle.
Blood Render (F-Rank, active): Converts Exsanguination into a devastating close-quarters ability. The technique remains the same with the exception of the blood forming on the axe and remaining on it, unleashed in short-range in a massive explosion of blood. Increases damage done to 175%/250% of the user’s missing Health Points.

Scarlet Virulence
A bloodborne plague spread from user to foe. Alters the appearance of the Sanguine Maw into a red and black two-handed axe dripping blood from its edges.

Vile Disease (B-Rank, passive): A virus born from the user’s blood. The user is immune to the effects of Vile Disease. The disease is released from the Sanguine Maw through its techniques and swings, most notably the blood that drips from its edges passively. The disease infects through a single moment of contact, inflicting 20 damage per turn indefinitely until cured with an S-Rank Medical Ninjutsu or A-Rank Yang/Utu technique.
Wave of Blood (A-Rank, active): A technique that produces waves and streams of blood from the Sanguine Maw, inflicting 60 damage and passively applying Vile Disease to any living target it touches. Costs the user 20 Health Points to activate.
Unholy Empowerment (S-Rank, passive): Converts the damage bonus of Roiling Blood into a powerful boon toward the user’s Scarlet Virulence abilities, and other techniques that manipulate their blood. Increases the damage bonus to 30/35/40% of missing Health Points.
Blood Familiar (S-Rank, active): Forms a familiar from the user’s blood, granting it 200 Health Points at the cost of 50. The familiar moves at a base speed of 17 and is able to use Vile Disease, Wave of Blood, and Exsanguination. Its Taijutsu inflicts 80 damage at the cost of a move, increased by 20 points of damage for every 20 points of Health lost.
Vector of Infection (F-Rank, passive): A passive augmentation to Vile Disease, increasing the damage it deals by an additional 20 points. It also saps the strength and agility of the victim, reducing their speed by 70% of its base and causing the Vile Disease to spread each turn to any other living target within 20 meters of their position, with the only exception being the user.

Endless Devourer
Consume the life of your foes. Alters the appearance of the Sanguine Maw into two one-handed axes.

The Butcher (B-Rank, passive): The user’s Bukijutsu with the Sanguine Maw siphons the life of the target they strike, whether the damage is inflicted or not. Each strike siphons 5% of the base damage of the technique used, unless it is evaded outright.
Empowered through War (A-Rank, passive): Whenever the user gains excess healing through The Butcher they activate Empowered through War, increasing their speed by 2.0x their base and all damage they do by 20. Lasts for two turns or until the user’s Health Points fall from their maximum.
Open Wounds (S-Rank, passive): When an opponent falls below 20% of their maximum health they will gain an Open Wound, causing them to bleed 10 Health per turn that can only be stopped when they fully heal themselves again. This bleed increases in potency to 20 and 30 points per turn when their health falls below 50 and 80% of their maximum health respectively.
Consumption (S-Rank, passive): A passive technique that accumulates any excess healing acquired through The Butcher. Excess healing is defined as any healing that goes beyond the user’s maximum health capacity. This healing is stored, up to 80, and can be added to Taijutsu or Bukijutsu technique as a boost to its damage, including Exsanguination.
Extinguish (F-Rank, active): Activated within the same timeframe as Exsanguination, causing any damage it inflicts to increase the rate of The Butcher from 5% to 15%.

As long as you make it through 6 turns that's good enough
A single kunai whizzes through the air before lodging itself into the barren earth right in front of Integra's feet, halting her advance. The blond-haired woman narrows her eyes until she sees him, the hulking mass of muscle that was Kōtetsu Inuzuka. With his Ninken merged within and the only visible weapon being the jagged black blade strapped across the back of his waist, he uttered a clear yet intimidating warning, "Leave this place..." As the words leave his mouth he activates his enhanced strength, fully expecting the woman to resist.

Skorm’s Bow [Reference] (Right hip)
Type: Tool
Rank: S
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 40
Damage: N/A
Description: Skorm’s Bow is a heavy-duty modernized high caliber chakra gun with blood/black thorn patterns and a red glowing holster. The gun has two types of rounds it can fire but both of them are purely composed out of lightning chakra. The gun has two different types of rounds that are all loaded in the magazine at all times but cannot be fired more than once per round. The first round is called explosive rounds, dealing 80 damage in total but is split into 40-40 whereas 40 damage is inflicted on contact where the bullet actually lands and the other 40 damage is spread up to mid-range in an omni-directional burst where the bullet ended up. This type of bullet is made up by fire chakra.
The second type of bullet is the armor piercing bullet, consisting of typhoon (or wind if the user cannot use typhoon) chakra it is extremely sharp but also very small. This bullet causes 80 damage and can penetrate up to S rank targets which are neutral to typhoon/wind. Up to forbidden if weak towards wind or typhoon. This bullet will continue through a target unless they carry armor(up to A rank) and hit whatever is behind it as well(directly behind that is and in the bullets trajectory).
Note: Can only be taught by Skorm. Each Bullet can only be utilized 3 times each.

As the kunai stops the woman in her tracks, she took a puff of her cigar and looked the brute up and down. "Now, now... I have business here. So either you let me pass, or I make you bow..." she stated harshley. Obviously both parties were not going to back down. She took another puff of her cigar as her eyes gleamed a deep white. She flicked the cigar at a great speed towards the man's face. That's right, that cigar made it mid range towards the big and bad bully's face. "Stay on your toes, lad." Integra told the brute playfully. She actually didn't want to kill the man, or even harm him, but it was definitely go time. Because from the looks of it, he definitely wanted to kill her.

(Dōjutsu: Byakugan) Eye Technique: The All Seeing White Eye [Passive]
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.

She built up her ototon chakra in her vocal cords while trailing the cigar at a running pace and then let out a yelp which created a small but devastating burst of a sound waves towards the brute to level him. After coming within short range of the man she stopped and then focused chakra in her feet, smearing one of her feet (right foot) into the ground. Unbeknownst to the opponent, a kanji would form on the ground in which if he tried to meet her where she ran, the the seal would explode and probably harm him. Or not... Dude was huge...

(Ototon: Hibiki Rendan no Jutsu) - Sound Release: Echo Assault Skill
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 20
Damage Points: 40
Description: The user gathers his sound chakra into his throat as he inhales afterwards exhaling as he screams, yells or roars. The resulting effect is a massive forward shockwave of low frequency, high amplitude sound that levels anything in its path. Despite weakening as it travels, its faster than most wind or lightning techniques and can still be defended from. If used within a water source it receives +20 damage.

( Fūin Wana Bakuhatsu ) – Sealing Trap Explosion
Rank: B-Rank
Type: Offensive, Defensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: 40
Description: The user places a seal on a chosen location which when an enemy target draws closer to the seal it will release itself in activation to the enemy’s chakra and cause an explosion.

"So be it," he says as the shockwave is released. He had no intention of letting her pass, meaning that her only option now was death. Kōtetsu launches himself forward as he rotates his body at staggering speeds and adds a specific rhythm to his spin that facilitates the generation of wild air pressure and rapid winds that possesses a pulling property. As he moves he fires this vortex towards the incoming shockwave and tears through it before continuing to Integra in a weakened state. His attack pulls her into its cutting winds before he immediately follows up his own rotational attack.

(Jūjin Taijutsu Ougi: Tōboe Kemono Kiba) Beast Human Martial Art: Howling Beast Fang
Type: Offensive/Supplementary
Rank: B - S (B)
Range: Short - Long
Chakra: N/A
Damage: 60 - 80 (40 + 10 = 50)
Description: Capable of being used as a standalone or collaboration technique that can be done either alone, between ninken, or ninken and their Inuzuka partner, Howling Beast Fang is a Gatsuuga based technique that sees the user(s) spin at ferocious speeds in the form of a drill. This ultra-violent rotation gathers a shell of air around the user(s) that allow them to tear through not only their opponents but solid structures and techniques of equal strength.

Notes:
- The A-ranked version of this technique can only be used four times per battle, while S-ranked can only be used twice and requires a single turn cooldown between uses.
- This technique can only be used by members of the Inuzuka Clan and their ninken.
Fenriru no Tayori | Tidings of Fenrir
Type: Offensive/Supplementary/Defensive
Rank: B
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 20
Damage: N/A (50)
Description: This allows the user to, when performing a Gatsuuga or Gatenga variant, add a specific rhythm to their violent gyrations that will facilitate the generation of wild air pressure and rapid winds, not at all unlike those of ‘Leaf Dragon God’. The formed vortex(created with the aid of chakra) will span out to a distance thrice that of the users length/height in all directions, and will be created with either a push or pull property. Depending on how the user spins, the air pressure generated by their Gatsuuga will either drag opponents caught within its vicinity to the center of the vortex, or repel them away, both iterations will deal slicing and blunt damage equal to that of the Gatsuuga or Gatenga that spawned it. The created vortex is equal in power to elemental ninjutsu, and the user is capable of separating from the vortex and releasing it in a set direction as a unidirectional shockwave should they so wish.

Notes:
Can only be used 4x
Once used the user cannot use Inuzuka techniques above S rank for the rest of the turn
Can only be performed at the same time as a Gatsuuga or Gatenga variant, and as a result can be performed in virtually the same timeframe as it has no independent usages.
Can be used by either Inuzuka or Ninken.
(Mukō: Senmon Chūnyū) – Void: Specialized Infusion (Reference)
Type: Void Infused Artifact
Rank: A
Range: Short – Long
Chakra: N/A
Damage: N/A
Description: Whenever the user uses a technique within a field of their specializations, they have a 25% chance to gain a single Void Infusion, occurring at most once every two turns.
