Trust me, I know Soma no Ko through and through, though I had to reapply because I was really focusing on two major streengths and weaknesses...
The second body, for one, simply can't be away from the first for too long. THey are much weaker, I mean like a whole rank difference. And they are easy to break.

Golden Spider of Kumo Six_Paths_God12 If I were you i would just build my way up to level two of hyoton or just ppick a new bloodline. Soma no Ko has more bad than good in some ways, but I am going to own with it! Soma no Ko? Soma no Ko is EPIC! You get two people, Each a copy of the other, knows EXACTLY what the otherone does, that partnered with a good strategy for someone used to using two characters in a rapid succession of attack { Such as a Inuzuka that has no need for defencive jutsu because they can decimate anyone their rank or below in under 5 posts } Honestly I don't see any downsides to Soma no ko! I just didn't want to take it for the plain and simple fact I barely manage to keep one person from being akward, how the hell am I supposed to handle two people? Your predecessor who I am still not convinced is not you, but doesn't really matter anymore because I haven't seen him post for months, would tell you differently. He went through the same denial over his soma no ko character as you currently are with yours. And then he killed himself in the kazekage's office, leading to a pretty awkward situation for the entire village right before the chuunin exams. No clan or bloodline is perfect. It's up to you to understand both the benefits, and flaws, of the bloodline before you take it. If you find out later that you don't like it after all, that's your own fault. There's a reason I've spent months settling on an idea for a second RPC. I don't want to get into something I won't enjoy later on. If I do get bored or disappointed with my character, I'll let him reinvent himself, and go on from there. The best thing you can do for a character is to let the character develop it's own personality and style. That way, it can never disappoint you, because it is always growing.

Hinote Tosatsu I was seriously considering taking Hyouton myself, because it has some insanely powerful techniques, even at genin level. The only reason the sample I am currently writing up is not Hyouton, is because I found another clan that I think would be more fun. if you hadn't been basing your entire idea of the clan on the idea that the ice was somehow invincible, you wouldn't be running into this problem. I can't remember all of the ice techs off the top of my head, but I know there were a lot that could be used basically as an insta kill, while others would be both fun and profitable to use in battle. Easily broken does not mean "Oops, a gust of wind shattered my armor." it means that yes, if you hit it with a sledgehammer it will most likely give in. Try simply breaking the ice off after your fingers have been frozen solid. Tried it? Okay, you most likely found that not only did the ice not come off, but your finger did instead. THAT, is the power of ice. Ok, Ice Swallow, Probably the best one, Makes multiple kunai that fly at an opponent and mold to their skin on contact. It doesn't specify how thick the ice is or anything, So I assume it is something along the lines of a Glaze over the affected area. I break Glazes of ice so easily it isn't funny. Hail, Makes spears of Ice decend upon a person. What if that person, Idk, uses a sword to block each one? Hey, Contact with metal makes them shatter! Ice Sphere, Makes a supercooled shpere of ice that freezes on contact with someone. Yes, Exact same problem as Ice Swallow. How are you supposed to know how thick the ice is? Red Ice, allows you to take out poison. Really helpful, aside from the fact that you now have a freely flowing wound because you just forced an Icecicle out of it. Ice Healing, You freeze the area where you are injured, but now you can't move that limb, OR you are breaking the ice bandaid, and now you have to make a new one. Glacier block, makes a 10 by 10 by 10 block of ice. ... How is that supposed to help me? Ha! I made a block! ... What now? ummm... I slide it at you? Oh wait, I forgot, It is easily broken so that you can literally use a weapon to break it. Damn, that blows. And that is EVERY Chunnin jutsu.

See, I am fairly sure you called me Timothy again, and again No I am not him. I know that, I did at the time, But Like I said before, I MISREAD the bloodline. I got it confused with something else completely and now I'm just now basically learning that My jutsu are " Easily Broken " I originally when I took the bloodline thought that it took a Taijutsu spec's strength to break it. Kenji already has a personality, And I'm not sure if it's that I'm all that disappointed in the fact my jutsu break easily, or the fact i haven't Rped in about two weeks, but Idk.

From what I've heard he was.
from my own experience, I'm surprised he wasn't banned. He gets so annoying when something doesn't go his way.
I'm only throwing a fit because I misread the Bloodline when I applied. confused I'm fairly sure that I seem like I'm throwing a fit just because, But I'm honestly kinda mad at myself for making such a mistake.

Golden Spider of Kumo Ok, Ice Swallow, Probably the best one, Makes multiple kunai that fly at an opponent and mold to their skin on contact. It doesn't specify how thick the ice is or anything, So I assume it is something along the lines of a Glaze over the affected area. I break Glazes of ice so easily it isn't funny. This isn't a simple glaze of ice. This is going to be a coating of ice that will most likely be rather difficult to remove. Ever stuck your arm in a bucket of ice water? Imagine that, but with a sumo wrestler holding you in place so you can't pull your arm out. Golden Spider of Kumo Hail, Makes spears of Ice decend upon a person. What if that person, Idk, uses a sword to block each one? Hey, Contact with metal makes them shatter! You're being silly on this one. Even if the person had time to use a sword to block them, giant spears of ice aren't exactly going to just vanish like that. He'd only have time to block one, if that, because I think that technique is used without warning? And even if he blocked it, it'd probably still do some damage. Golden Spider of Kumo Ice Sphere, Makes a supercooled shpere of ice that freezes on contact with someone. Yes, Exact same problem as Ice Swallow. How are you supposed to know how thick the ice is? This is even more silly that the first two combined. I have two examples for this. Number one being that same sumo wrestler, holding you underwater in a bathtub full of ice water. Number two, is exactly what this jutsu is. The water prison, MADE OF ICE. Golden Spider of Kumo Red Ice, allows you to take out poison. Really helpful, aside from the fact that you now have a freely flowing wound because you just forced an Icecicle out of it. Except, not only have you gotten rid of that nasty poison, if you did it right, the hole you made to do it was so very tiny that hardly a drop can escape unless you squeeze it out yourself. Golden Spider of Kumo Ice Healing, You freeze the area where you are injured, but now you can't move that limb, OR you are breaking the ice bandaid, and now you have to make a new one. Now you're being idiotic. The jutsu description CLEARLY STATES, that the ice bandage is flexible, to allow full range of motion without breaking. Golden Spider of Kumo Glacier block, makes a 10 by 10 by 10 block of ice. ... How is that supposed to help me? Ha! I made a block! ... What now? ummm... I slide it at you? Oh wait, I forgot, It is easily broken so that you can literally use a weapon to break it. Damn, that blows. Yeah, you're right on this one. Well, minus the part where the thing can be shattered by anyone with a weapon. IT'S A GIANT BLOCK OF ICE. You're not going to just walk up to a block of ice three times larger than you and smash it with a stick.

Have you been reading the custom jutsu thread? lol And no, even that isn't strong enough to smash a giant block of ice bare handed. Even Mr. T, Arnold Shwartzenegger, or even the Old Spice Guy wouldn't be able to do it.
Well, maybe the old spice guy.

@ Hinote
It never says how thick it is. so how am I supposed to know? It says coats it. A Glaze is a coating. Honestly I don't see how thick you are making this, Haku's 10 cm thick { Roughly around four inches } Thick mirrors shattered like... well mirrors.
Yes, I am being sarcastic because honestly that jutsu would be so easy to dodge. They are large Spears of Ice that form above you. I'm fairly sure if you can tell that something is coming out of the sky, that you'd be able to swing a blade and break quite a few, and dodge the others. Honestly, Easily broken, at the thickest point, they are what, 20 cm thick to 15 cm thick? Is the 10 cm thick shatters like glass, this one would shatter like freaking building against wrecking ball.
Ice sphere, again how thick is the coating? And it IS not functionable like Water prison. It basically splatters all over your opponent.
Ummm.. It says that a Icecicle is made on the wound. Idk, but if you are going to make an icecicle on your wound, then I'd kinda expect it to... idk get larger? not to mention you are suctioning out blood.
How do you get flexible ice? Answer me that, and I'll conscede my point on this jutsu.
Hinote, Remember shatters like ice... Not only would they beable to stop it by merely sticking their hand out, Depending on the weapon used and the strength of the user, that block of ice WOULD shatter.
