[Water] Getting wet with Luna - Strawberry

[Strawberry]

Waits for Luna sama under a tree by a lake

 

[The Mockingjay]

Wet? B**** please, we're getting drenched.
---------------------------------

A girl sits idly by the lake, her finger tips trace eloquent patterns through the otherwise calm water, the subsequent ripples flowing outward from her hand gracefully. She takes a moment to breath in before beckoning for her student to join her at the lakes edge. She smiles toward the newcomer, her emerald tinted eyes meet his through her single streak of red hair.

"Hey! Before we begin, I need you to tell me what water is to you. How do you think you would go about forming water chakra? And what do you think you feel within yourself when it is eventually formed? Think of waters many properties, the way it moves and interacts with the world. Feel free to use the source for inspiration, you get used to the cold eventually."

She sits back, leaning on her hands and awaits the mans response.

 

[Strawberry]

water to me is the combination of 2 hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom at temperatures below 100 degrees below the boiling point of water. at this temp water is a liquid and very malleable, i can cut through it with ease and even swim on it. Water is the basic neccesity of life and can be found in rivvers, streams, lakes ponds and even oceans.
I think in order to make water chakra i would have tranform my own chakra within my body into water most likely by using my chakra as a means of attracting hyrdogen and oxygen with my own chakra to create water within my body which can then be manipulated further. My body would feel wet cold and a little bloated due to the natural properties of water.

 

[The Mockingjay]

Okay, you've proved you know what water is in RL, what it consists of etc. But I was looking for something less literal. To create lightning chakra you speed your chakra flow and make it vibrate to give it the wild nature. So in that sense what would you do for water chakra?
And from there, how does water make you feel? Fire gives off heat, signifying both calm and rage. So in this vain, how does water make you feel, describe to me how it moves. Be poetic, not scientifically correct ^_^

Basically, I was looking for your answer in RP/Chakra terms, not RL/Molecular terms.

Also, if you could continue this thread in RP form as I did in my prior post that would be greatly appreciated.

Strawberry acknowledges the gesture, and walks towards his senpai, a glimpse at her eyes leave him in wonder....
How much would those be worth? he thought.
She then spoke and he listened.

uh,huh okay... got it... strawberry agreed along letting her know he was listening.

Okay water would make me feel calm, cool and collected as if i were in meditation, at ease with my self, free of stress, almost as if i was enlightened with a hint of a cool breeze floating in the background. To make water chakra i think i would cool my chakra while gathering it together in more dense form then chakra by it self is. Strawberry tried to sound as poetic as the magnificent sempai did, but doubted it would work, although he knew he'd get the hang of it, after all i will be mimicking her in many ways....

 

[The Mockingjay]

Melissa listens carefully to her students response, continuing to draw patterns in the lake with her fingertips. The close of his response is met with a calming smile before she speaks once more.

"Good, you're starting to understand what it is I'm asking. But to create water chakra we give it waters properties, the grace of movement and shapeless form that feed its ability to shape itself around any obstacles that may sit in its path."

She brings her fingers from the water and draws the infinity symbol in the air, leaving a trail of sparkling water droplets in the air, painting a rainbow on a canvas of air. Allowing the droplets of water to fall sensually to the ground she speaks.

"So, now that you know that, I'd like you to try and form water chakra within yourself."

She pulls from her pocket a small sheet of paper.

"I'm sure you may know what this is already. Chakra paper, it will change form depending on what chakra is added to it. For this drill, the paper will become wet. Place the paper between your palms, and clear your mind, concentrate on all you know of water and then channel that into your chakra."

She hands the paper to him and watches on silently.

 

[Strawberry]

Watching the sempai painting pictures in the air, strawberry wonders, is this true art.... an art knowing no boundries, one being able to take on any shape any form?.... is water true art?

With that in mind he listens on to luna finishing her instructions and grasps the paper from her.

Sitting cross-legged besides his sempai, strawberry takes one look at her before gently closing his eyes and keeping the paper between his hands.

Strawberry concentrates on water..... What is water....the Essence of water, its properties and form. Water is cool, shapeless, moldable, free from many physical boundaries, Strawberry continued his though and concentration on water.... the feelings of water and it's images being vividly present in his mind, slowly strawberry begins to replicate these feelings with his chakra trying to slowly bring the two forms to be one. The chakra channeled in his hand seems to be mimicking water, his palm showing sweat just as the chakra is transferred onto the chakra paper, which at this point seems wet.

Strawberry opens his eyes.

How was that master?

 

[The Mockingjay]

Taking the soggy paper from her student, Melissa watches as it rips straight down the middle without so much of a tug. She drops the remains of the paper onto the ground and speaks.

"Why do you need to ask? It's the beauty of this drill really, the results are physical. If you did it wrong, you'd know it."

She rises to her feet and walks away from the lake, taking her place in the centre of an open grassland a few feet away. She beckons for him to join her.

"With all that done, usually we'd get to the techniques. But with water, I personally feel there are more important things that you should understand. So, to get that understanding I'll tell you how I view water. To me, water is 'versatility incarnate' and given the correct circumstances is the only element capable of countering ALL other elements without simply overpowering them. I think the main thing is understanding how it acts of its own accord after release, water will not merely cease to exist once a technique is over and has a lasting effect on the terrain, regardless of where you are fighting, water WILL effect it in some way. This is something that must be used to your advantage. Water techniques will continue to work through the area around you whilst you build your next techniques, as long as there is water there is a danger and a sense of unknowing in the opponent.

Let's start with something simple but something that a lot of people pass on learning, understanding how water effects different terrains.

I'd like you to state the main terrain/environmental factors in each of the five major nations, not just the surface of the ground, but the air around you as well (Kiri's mist, Ame's rain etc..). Then I'd like you to state how Water effects each of the landscapes."

Wandering as she speaks, Melissa gestures appropriately, keeping her students interest and focus on her.

 

[Strawberry]

Starwberry remain attentive, keen on learning his next task, 3

Strawberry clears his throat before speaking

For amegakure, the village is highly industrialized the terrain consisting mainly of concrete flooring and earth. The atmosphere of amegakure is almost constant rain due to a storm above the village. Water would work like normal here, earth would absorb water concrete would keep it above.... the rain falling from the village can form puddles which can be further manipulated in techs.

Sunagakure, consists mainly of a sandy terrain and atmosphere is hardly any rain. Water would affect sand by making it heavier and harder to use by sand users.

Iwagakure consists mainly of rocky domain surrounded by mountains, water here would not affect the terrain in any real significant way.

Kirigakure is a combination of islands, surrounded by water and ocean, the atmoshpere here is misty, mist can be condensed and form water for use, water here would also not act in special way the village looks the way it currently does because of large quantities of water present.

Konoha,s terrain is mainly earth and trees, water is needed for the trees to live as they do in such a lush forest.

Kumogakure is a city built into mountains terrain their is rock, water would not work any differantly rp wise here either. however water would affect the quantity of clouds present/density.


Starwberry smirks as he finishes.

 

[The Mockingjay]

Amegakure: Whilst you're right in terms of inside the village, outside the village is all ocean. You're going to be fighting on water. In this case, the village becomes very similar to Kirigakure. Whilst standing on such a large amount of water you have the means means to use your most powerful water techniques near instantly as you have an already developed water source. Something that people tend to forget about water however is that although they don't all require a water source, they can all use one. There are a few techniques which state that the user begins by creating a water source, if you have a water source already, you can skip through this part of the technique, allowing you to utilize the jutsu quicker, starting from the second stage of the technique. Even if water jutsu don't state this, they will ALWAYS happen quicker if used from a source.

Sunagakure: Exactly, water jutsu in this terrain forms wet sand, a heavy, relatively dense substance that can be used in conjunction with your earth jutsu. Explain your moves right and you can have earth jutsu which blind your opponent as the wet sand not only inflicts blunt damage but it breaks up on impact and can effect the senses. When sand is infused with water whilst in the air, the water becomes thicker and more damaging, the water also spreads the sand on impact again look to aim for the opponents senses.

Iwagakure: Whilst the water doesn't have a lasting effect on the terrain, it is not completely useless. Water on the ground in these areas will automatically be absorbed into the ground slower than if the water is settled on a field for instance. Think about when it's raining, puddles are far less likely to form on fields than in the middle of a street. Dirt and grass are naturally absorbent of water whereas water will merely sit atop of rock. Remember also, rocks are loose pieces of the environment and can be picked up by water techniques to cut and pierce, thus adding damage to what would normally be blunt force. In this same vein, water can carry Kunai, essentially hiding them inside streams as you spit.

Konohagakure: You seem to have gone off topic for this one, you spoke too literally, you didn't describe the effects in an RP sense. Water used in Konoha's forests will seep into the earth and set on the grass and dirt, forming mud. Mud as you will learn and probably already know is slippery and can assist you against certain people extremely well. Water possesses an often over looked level of brute strength, a large amount of water can easily knock over and drag along a human being, flood/ tidal waves are actually the most catastrophic of the commonly occurring natural disasters. You can use this strength to push your opponent against the ever-present Konoha trees or into traps that you laid earlier.

Kumogakure: Much like Iwagakure, Kumo's terrain is not effected long term by water, but it does effect the battle. The terrain is VERY uneven, when water is used of a slope it either slows or speeds up the waters movement speed, it creates waves as the water bounces from level to level much like in Iwa, fills the water with shards of rock. The water will set at the lowest point on the mountain and will build into a puddle/pool, the ground will not absorb water well and this will therefore create a water source! And we LOVE water sources!

Kirigakure: Whilst you're right about the atmosphere, you again forgot to go into how the vast amounts of water present in Kiri can help you. Think back to my explanation of the terrain in Amegakure, the same principles apply.

As a water user your best friend will be anything that can make a water source for you, without necessarily saying it makes a water source. Although relatively obvious, some people tend to disregard the water from said techniques once the technique is over, Waters power comes from description.

As well as the physical effects, think of the effect of water when you get out of a swimming pool. If your clothes are wet you are naturally going to feel heavier and you will move slower, if you have water in your ears, your ears will ring and sounds will become distorted. Water in your eyes and they sting, water swallowed in large amounts will make breathing difficult and will cause the opponent to cough and sneeze if inhaled through the nose, again, it's all in the description. If you say, the water travels toward your face. Add that this would make it incredibly hard to avoid inhaling or swallowing, add that the water would splash, sending vast amounts into the nostrils, causing coughing and irritation to the eyes. If you don't, your opponent will certainly not do it for you.

Something very simple, layer the ground with water, and it becomes near impossible for the opponent to sneak up on you. When they get close the ground would either make a splash, or a squelch or whatever sound you like... Either way, it alerts you. This works both ways, you can use the sounds that water makes as a diversion tactic, drawing your opponents attention with a carefully placed rock.

So! Now that you understand Water. Let's start wielding it. Ready!?

Any questions before we move on? Please remember, throughout this training, you should ask any questions you think of, regardless of how obvious it may seem. It is better to learn the hard way and lose because of it later on in your RP career.

no questions so far.

 

[The Mockingjay]

My bad, at the end I meant to say "It is better to learn now, than to learn the hard way and lose because of it later on in your RP career." xD
-----------------------------------------------
So, we now know what water can do in terms of terrain. But what can it do when paired with other elements? Tell me what you know of Water's Strengths and Weaknesses, then tell me which Kekkei Genkai are made up of Water and other elements.

 

[Strawberry]

its okay i knew what you were trying to say.



................

Strawberry looks up, with a cheerful look.

I Got this. Water is strong against the fire element as it is capable of extinguishing flames, a fire jutsu of a level stronger however will cancel out the fire jutsu and the result will be a high volume of steam. Water is weak against earth because earth can cancel the force of the water jutsu. Water can also conduct lightning making the combo very effective.

as for kekkei genkai Ice Release with wind, Wood Release with earth, Storm Release with lightning , and Boil Release with fire all require water.

 

[The Mockingjay]

Excellent, you clearly have a decent understanding of all that jazz. For a more complete look at waters strengths and weaknesses take a look at the following.

Strengths:
- Raw Chakra ( except raw chakra that uses advanced shape manipulation like rasengan, in which case it's equal )
- Storm ( A large Water source can also be used to diffuse the Lightning within storm release, leaving nothing but a Water technique. )
- Dark
- Bug jutsu
- Blast
- Sand
- Paper jutsu

Weaknesses:
- Wood
- Crystal
- Ice
- Steel
- Boil
- Scorch
- Shikotsumyaku
- Dust

Neutral:
- Lava
- Biju chakra

Begin your next post with any questions you may have about this.

then...

Using everything you've learned of water thus far, specifically in the chakra paper exercise, mold your water chakra and this time use shape manipulation to give it form and send a small bullet of chakra hurtling toward my clone.

-creates a clone-

 

[Strawberry]

Thats a nice clone you got there..... Too bad i gotta pop it.

I take aim at newly formed clone and I create water chakra in my mouth and expel it out of my mouth while simultaneously manipulating the water into the form of a bullet. It flies forward fast and strikes the making it vanish.....

panting strawberry thought to himself this is tiring.....

 

[The Mockingjay]

The clone dodges to the right and begins running at you, fast. From her position Melissa shouts to you.

"Quick, use the same methods as before, but this time create a shield, use it to block my clones strike.. And hurry."

The clone descends upon your position, aiming to drive a punch straight onto the bridge of your nose.

 

[Strawberry]

what....!!!!!

i look up alarmed condensing the water from the air around me combining it with my chakra i manipulate it into a water shield blocking the punch the clone drove at me.... and pushing him back slightly, as i myself leap backwards.

is that all you got, using sneak attacks, i pitty you foul clone !

 

[The Mockingjay]

Good Job!

As you can see, it's a versatile technique and although a low rank can be used to get you out of some sticky situations. Despite its description, you can pretty much create whatever shape/ construct you may desire from this technique, it just follows the rank rules so will always be relatively small.

Any questions about the first tech?

(Suiton No Jutsu) - Water technique

Spoiler

Rank: D
Type: Supplementary/Attack/Defence
Range: Short-Mid
Damage Points:20
Description: Creates small waves of water,small blasts, and small shields of water.
Note: Doesn't require a water source but can be used to manipulate existing water.

Now, that was both defensive and offensive. Let's hit supplementary next.

Channel suiton chakra into your lungs whilst building up a fair amount of spit in your mouth. Then release them together in the form of a thick white mist. If you do this correctly then the mist will spread around the area whilst still remaining thick enough to conceal your movements.

 

[Strawberry]

strawberry thinks about spitting for second as it is unpolite especially in the presence of a lady... but willl do so anyways because he has little respect for women.

I begin channeling water chakra within my lungs, while also simultaneusy gathering salive in my mouth using the built up chakra in my lungs i release it out of my mouth in unison with the saliva spitting out a combination of both while making the 2 spread out, the created mist is dense enough to conceal my movements and i go behind luna sempai forming bunny ears.


muahahahahha

 

[The Mockingjay]

(Kirigakure No Jutsu) - Hidding in Mist Jutsu

Spoiler

Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 10
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This displacement technique creates a thick mist to spring forth by lifting up some water from either a pre-existing source or expelled from their mouth, then goes in and out of sight at will from within the pearly-white realm. The mist's thickness is controlled by the amount of chakra kneaded into it. It can't fool the Byakugan, but, due to the mist being created with the user's chakra, any Sharingan and Rinnegan-user will see the mist coloured by their opponent's chakra, which will effectively hide the user from the dōjutsu.
Note: Can be created through releasing from mouth or manipulating a nearby water source.

Heel kicks you in the winky.

"Don't do that."

Our next technique involves you condensing water from the air or creating it yourself and manipulating it into a blade. The sword you make will have all the ordinary properties of an ordinary sword but will, obviously, be made purely of water. Try it!
