Custom Bloodline/Clan

[Karnitis]

Kujaku Clan

Mysterious Peacock Chakra

Description: Countless years ago, a mysterious meteorite fell in the middle of the Land of Bears. A small group of ninja tried to harness its power, and did so amazingly so through hours of countless meditation around the meteorite. Eventually the power of the mysterious chakra proved too much for the small group of ninja and all who attempted prolonged practice with it died. The meteorite was still kept in a temple, locked away to keep everyone safe. Eventually, one brave ninja broke into the sacred building to prove she could survive the training. She did, never suffering any of the past symptoms of previous users. She realized that in her blood must have been a unique strand of DNA that made her immune to whatever had killed all the other ninja. Unknown as to where this special blood came from, she left the Land of Bears to find other long-lost family members that shared her blood, taking the meteorite with her. Over time, she amassed many immune ninja and together they formed the Kujaku clan.
While the original meteorite has stayed with the clan elders, on her trip, the kunoichi found several other smaller meteorites that maintained the properties of the original. Now, whenever another special ninja is found, he or she is given one of these smaller stars to the ninja's village. The star is automatically placed in the village training grounds (no post needed saying it was put there), though at chuunin rank the special ninja is allowed to take the meteorite and move it to another place in the village (so the ninja can train somewhere besides the village). To learn the kujaku jutsu/techniques, the first half of the posts (round down if it's an odd number) need to be at the star, but the 2nd half can be elsewhere.
Note: the smaller meteorite, while usable for training, can't be used for Implantation. If that is attempted, nothing will happen. Except pain, because you just rammed a decently-sized rock into you chest.

Techniques

Ninja Art: Kujaku: The user’s chakra, a purplish-pink color, flares up behind them in a feather-like array that can be easily manipulated for a variety of techniques.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Awakening

rank: C

Focusing kujaku chakra in the user’s palm or finger(s) and touches an unconscious victim. The special revitalizing chakra acts to reboot the victim’s chakra network and awakens them. This technique only works on victims that have passed out, fainted, or are sleeping.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Predation

rank: B

The user forms the head of a kujaku beast with his chakra and eats the visible chakra of an opponent (the opponent loses B-rank chakra). When used against a fellow kujaku user, the chakra lost is A-rank and greatly damages the kujaku opponent.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Join

rank: B

When the user is controlling two beasts, he can use this technique to join them together into a larger, stronger beast.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Revival

rank: A

This is an advanced form of Awakening. The user can break other ninjas, but not himself, out of equal level genjutsu (A rank or below) by touching them. If the user is a medical ninja, he can use this technique to temporarily wake up a ninja that is a deep sleep due to illness, poisoning, etc.

Jutsu:

Ninja Art Kujaku: Chakra Rope

rank: E-A

The user can either extend ropes made of kujaku chakra from their hand or from their feather array. These ropes can be short to long range and vary in strength depending on the strength of the user. Genin users will find their rope strong, but easily broken by ninja of a higher level, whereas jounin+ ninja’s rope will be practically unbreakable except against special ninjutsu that cut off or negate the flow of chakra. The number of strands of rope can vary, but in most cases would not be more than 5. The justu rank is automatic (i.e. genin rope will usually always be E or D, where chuunin will be C, special jounin B, etc) unless otherwise specified so the user can save chakra.
E: This rope can can stop a genin ninja dead in his tracks, even at a full run. Chuunin will be delayed, but can break free. Jounin can snap it without thinking.
D: Same as E, but now the kujaku user can use up to two ropes.
C: Genin and chuunin can't break free, and special jounin can but only after some effort. Higher rank ninja will be slowed, but with not have a problem breaking these ropes. Four ropes can be made at once.
B: Equal rank ninja and lower can't break free, higher rank ninja will can escape these bonds but only with considerable force. Getting out of these ropes are not something that can be done quickly, if at all. 5 ropes possible.
A: Only ninja with insurmountable strength can break free of these ropes if they are snared. Regular ninja cannot break free simply by struggling. Unless they are incredibly strong or have special jutsu, they are stuck.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Beast

rank: D-A

The user uses part or all (depending on his proficiency) of his feather array to form the top half of a beast, which is connected to the array, and therefore the user as well. The beast has two arms with sharp claws and a mouth full of sharp teeth. This is a short-to-midrange technique. The beast is of average speed but strong, and is not damaged by traditional weaponry (kunai, throwing stars) or taijutsu. The jutsu rank is automatic (see “chakra rope”), with lower rank beasts being smaller, slower, weaker, and more vulnerable to ninjutsu. Once a ninja becomes jounin rank, he is able to use two beasts of equal power at once, though he will need to pay for the jutsu twice to do this.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Destroy

rank: D-A

The user uses feathers from their array to attack their opponent. This attack is pretty straightforward, though it can curve to get to an opponent. The higher level the ninja, the stronger the attack.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Protection

rank: D-S

The user brings the feathers over his head and in front of him, shrouding his body from attacks. The technique can block attacks of equal rank, but are less and less effective the greater level-difference.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Choke

rank: C

This technique is only useable after a ninja has learned the Chakra Rope jutsu. Similar to chakra rope, the user uses thick tendrils to quickly wrap around a ninja’s neck and suffocate him. These tendrils are strong enough to lift the opponent a few feet off the ground. The technique may also be used against parts of the body (such as the torso, arms and legs) to break bones.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Wings

rank: C

The user’s feather array transforms into a set wings (two large ones facing up, two smaller ones facing down). He can fly short distances quickly and high enough to soar over most buildings. The user gets flying for three posts.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Bird

rank: B

This jutsu is an extension of Ninja Art Kujaku: Wings. The body of the user is covered in kujaku chakra forming a shell, or the "torso" of the bird, so to speak. This also covers the users hands, so he is unable to attack offensively, but the technique is good for escaping, or for finding cover or higher ground from which to mount an offensive. The chakra shell is extremely resistant to projectile weapons, and moderately effective at blocking jutsu. Ninjutsu 2 ranks or lower don't damage the user, 1 rank lower ninjustu do half damage, and jutsu of equal or higher rank completely penetrate the shell and do regular damage.

Ninja Art Kujaku: Apparition

rank: A

The kujaku user draws a kanji on a flat surface and kujaku chakra is infused in it. After the user either puts himself to sleep or passes out, a ghost-form of the ninja comes from the kanji. The user creates a link from his mind to the jutsu when he draws the kanji, and when he falls asleep, his mind is transferred into the created Apparition, leaving his body an empty shell. The user does not feel anything from his former body and will not know if it is moved or damaged or the like, so this can be a very dangerous technique if the body is left somewhere that is not safe. It can be used to relay messages to other ninja (by touching another ninja, the ghost transfers recent memories from the user to the ninja) or to temporarily protect other ninja (the Apparition can use 75% of the user's chakra). The Apparition can travel up to a mile away from the user's body before it dissipates. If the Apparition is used to defend an ally, it can do so for 3 posts before it dissipates. The Apparition is not a clone. It can only use kujaku jutsu and in-and-of-itself is indestructible except to techniques that disrupt or absorb chakra. The user can return to his body at any time by forming the appropriate handsign.

Implantation

After a ninja has dedicated endless time to perfecting Ninja Art: Kujaku, the head of the clan gift him with a small piece of the meteorite, an honor reserved for only the best of the kujaku clan (if the clan head is not of the same village, or is a lower rank than the first ninja, an NPC clan elder will subsitute). In order to be deemed worthy of a piece of the star, a ninja must have learned at least 10/12 kujaku jutsu and be jounin or higher rank and fought in a minimum of 3 battles using the kujaku jutsu (with links provided, of course). In times of great need, the user can implant their star piece into themselves to greatly enhance their chakra and strength and allows for new jutsu to be used. The ‘implantation stage’ lasts for 5 posts. The user with get +3 chakra points/10 max chakra points and his strength will increase by 50%. If the shinobi removes the star piece on the 6th post, his chakra will return to normal, suffering no adverse side effects (that is, subtract however much chakra you gained from what you have, and that is your regular chakra). The ninja's speed and strength will fall to 75% of his normal level. If the ninja keeps the piece in for a 6th post, when he removes it he will be half as strong and fast as he normally is, and can only use half of his regular chakra. When the implantation stage has gone through 7 posts, the body of the shinobi will have become dependent on the star chakra and when the piece crumbles on the 8th post (for it will have been drained by the body and no longer be stable) his speed, strength, and available chakra will only be at 10%. the utter abuse of the meteorite will make the chances of the elders deciding to give you another piece very unlikely, but not impossible (it will be up to the opinion of the can head to decide when, if ever, to give another piece of the meteorite. If the offender is the clan head, the choice will be decided by the kage of the village. If the person is a rouge ninja, it is the kage of their original village). In addition, if the user does not remove the star on the 6th post, but retains it for an additional 1 or 2 posts, when the user is seperated from the star, he will need to seek immediate medical attention. There is a small chance (die roll of 1-5 out of 100) that the user will faint once the star crumbles (assuming he used it for 7 posts).

Ninja Art Kujaku: Dragon

rank: S

The user’s feather array transforms into a giant dragon that wraps itself around the user. The body of the dragon is still rooted to the user, so the user is still free to move with the dragon body protecting his chest and back. The dragon can fire kujaku blasts from its mouth, as strong as an A-rank Kujaku Art: Destroy. The dragon can also grow a large pair of wings that can send waves out of kujaku chakra (as an attack of C-rank strength). The user can also fly, but because the dragon’s wings are more for offense attack, the user only gets ‘flying’ for one post. The justu costs S-rank chakra the first post, and C-rank chakra to maintain every post after that. The Dragon can be maintained as long as the piece of meteorite is implanted in the kujaku shinobi.
