Name:
Kekkain Clan
Description:
Back in the days of the Reibi, and the Six Paths Sage, a group of people who used the sealing arts created and practiced a further form. By sacrificing much of their raw power and intangibility they could achieve through seal arrays, they created Kekkai, a field of physical chakra capable of being projected and surrounding targets. This was used to hunt and eradicate the many lowly demons, and spirits. It wasn't until long after the Six Paths sage died that people began to view this ability in terms of military might. What the Kekkai lacked in raw power, it made up for in versatility, and what the Onmyouji themselves lacked in physical attributes, their Shikigami more than made up for.
Strengths:
Best used for keeping multiple enemies in place, or blocking attacks.
Weaknesses:
Their Kekkai are only as strong as the caster, meaning any more strength than the Kekkain can output results in the destruction of the Kekkai.
They must spend a post action creating the specifics for Rule Kekkai.
Though Shikigami require no upkeep cost, they will drain the user incredibly if used repeatedly.
Mobile Targets are extremely difficult to hit without use of the Hoi, and Joso
Ability:
Ability to create the Projection Barrier, Kekkai
Ability to create the Onmyouji's Servant, Shikigami
Bloodline/Clan Jutsus:
Projection Barrier, Kekkai
Rank: D
Type: Fuuin/Ninjutsu | Omni
Description:
kekkai, the primary technique of all Onmyouji, and truly one of the greatest most versatile jutsu ever created. It is a combination of both the sealing arts and the casting ability of ninjutsu. Kekkai is used to project a barrier around a target, and essentially cage them in a box capable of withstanding anything the user would be capable. Kekkai are very difficult to actually see, as they are transparent, and will simply shimmer like glass.

Kekkai also have the unique ability to be cast-able on targets that they don't completely envelope. This will simply cause them to behave as if they are restricted like a box is covering that portion of them.

Kekkai are cast by line of sight. If the user can not see the target, then they can not catch them in a Kekkai.

Unlike other ninjutsu that feed off of the user's power with their ability to trap a target, Kekkai use the user's physical strength in order to maintain a controlled environment within themselves. If the target can overpower the caster, then the target can free themselves from the kekkai. This can be through raw physical strength, or through ninjutsu. [Though using massively destructive ninjutsu is dangerous more so to the one trapped inside a box with the jutsu than the user, as the ninjutsu will break the kekkai, but won't continue a forward motion and will simply fall, more than likely damaging the one who used it.]

Kekkai are designed to keep things in, and keep everything else out. This is due to the standard Kekkai's rule set.

Kekkai reduce their effectiveness every three posts by an entire rank, so after a couple of posts, even a worm could break a Kage's Kekkai.

Kekkai require constant concentration, to the point that you can't even move. If you have Ability control, or a talent allowing for a similar effect, then you can shuffle short distances, but running or even lifting a foot is impossible, because should you feel even a slight pain, or lose any balance what so ever, the Kekkai is immediately dropped to the lowest possible rank.

Kekkai stick to what they are cast upon, unless that specific Rule is changed through the use of the Special Kekkai. This is true even if they are cast in mid air, as they will remain in the air where they are cast until the user cancels them, or they are destroyed.

Though Kekkai are treated as traps to catch a target in, their uses are far more complex than that. Kekkai can be used to push the user up into the air, launching them.
Onmyouji's Servant, Shikigami
Rank: S
Type: Fuuin/Ninjutsu | Supp.
Description:
Shikigami are the servants to the Onmyouji, holding in themselves the power of what the Onmyouji can create. Shikigami in their truest form take a humanoid shape that is pure white with the Kekkain Clan symbol on their midriff. This shape changes between people, from short chibi like figures to exact copies of hte user themselves. One thing transfers at all times, and that is the sheer lack of all texture, all Shikigami are perfectly smooth.

Though Shikigami weren't originally used for it, many Onmyouji created Shikigami capable of battle. Originally Shikigami were meant to send messages, restore the lands to their rightful way with Restoration jutsu, a Shikigami specific technique, and take care of menial tasks the Onmyouji couldn't. Shikigami take the form of what the Onmyouji wishes, though expending more power to make them larger makes the Onmyouji more and more exhausted. If the Shikigami takes damage past the user's rank, or past the chakra given to it, it will automatically try to regain it's lost power, though Onmyouji can negate this through concentration.

Special Barrier, Rule Kekkai
Rank: B
Type: Fuuin/Ninjutsu | Omni
Description:
Almost exactly like Kekkai, Rule Kekkai are boxes made of projected chakra to enclose and entrap a target. Rule Kekkai however are more versatile in the fact the Onmyouji can allow certain things to pass through, and the Kekkai to catch certain things. This also allows the Onmyouji to change the texture of the Kekkai, making it rubbery and stretchy, and thus harder to break as the target has to reach until the Kekkai can no longer stretch.

Truly these Special Kekkai can become nearly anything, but the rules and specifics of the Kekkai have to be outlined when using this technique. These Kekkai ARE solid, and can still be broken.
