Kansatsuryoku

Kansatsuryoku
Tracking, Observation, Analysis

Description/History
When and where the Kansatsu clan first originated is shrouded in mystery since no actual documentation for this clan was ever conceived. But from what has been passed on by word of mouth, this clan, for as long as anyone can remember, has been a nomadic tribe wandering from town to town avoiding any specific contact with anything associated with ninja. It is said that the founder of the tribe was a person gifted with the natural ability to detect heat signatures and sound waves as well as being able to catch glimpses into the past and future. Because of his amazing natural abilities, he was taken away from his friends and family and asked to do many dangerous tasks under the will of a selfish tyrant ruler. Seeing how his abilities were misused and his will was consistently being oppressed, the man snuck away from the lord's castle during a lunar eclipse and ran as far away as possible.

Knowing that there was a chance for the Lord to come after him as well as others wanting to use his abilities for evil, the man began living as a wandering hermit doing little things here and there to gain money while avoiding unwanted attention. It was during his travels that the man gained several followers, one of which he eventually married. The tribe continued to expand over the years and as different people with natural abilities to see wavelengths integrated into the tribe, the bloodline eventually developed into what it is today.

Though most members still keep to the tradition of their clan leading nomadic lives, several members have begun to question their ways and left to seek out for a different way to live. The people who tend to seek out members of this clan whenever they appear in town are the people hoping to get their fortunes told or in the rarer of cases, to track someone down.

Benefits & Penalties

❶ Regular relaxation of the mind, such as meditation or yoga, is required.
❷ Only one sight can be active at a time.
❸ The user's eyes change color according to which sight is currently active.
❹ Doujutsu techniques do not require handseals or incantations. All other jutsu do.
❺ Constantly shifting sights, or keeping sights active too long, can cause temporary blindness due to the mind's inability to keep up. (A shift is counted when changing from normal vision to a special vision, or from one special vision to another. Changing to normal vision does not count as a shift.)

Limitations: After a set number of “Shifts”, or a certain period of keeping a special vision active, the user must deactivate their vision and rest, or risk blindness. Resting vision takes twice as long as the vision was active to complete. If active for one post, the user must rest for two. Utilizing special techniques such as meditation reduces that to an equal rate. If you have used your maximum safe posts, you cannot activate a sight until fully rested. Shifts are not reset or reduced until the user is fully rested.

E & D Ranks: Can handle up to five vision shifts before requiring rest. Vision can last up to five posts before requiring rest.
C Ranks: Can handle up to eight vision shifts before requiring rest. Vision can last up to ten posts before requiring rest.
B & A Ranks: Can handle up to twelve vision shifts before requiring rest. Vision can last up to fifteen posts before requiring rest.
S Ranks: Can handle up to fifteen vision shifts before requiring rest. Vision can last up to twenty posts before requiring rest.

Overuse Penalty: Vision can last up to a maximum of five posts beyond the safe limit. For every post beyond that limit however, the user will suffer five posts of complete blindness after the vision is deactivated. It is however impossible to shift to a new special vision after reaching the maximum number of shifts without rest.

Stage One
X-Ray Vision

Description: The user has just recently awakened their Kekkai Genkai and is starting the basic training on how to use their special ability. Still new to this, the user has yet to develop the sense/skill necessary to detect long wavelengths but the user does have the natural ability to hear high frequencies allowing them to easily detect the high pitched frequency and short wavelengths of X-ray radiation. While in this stage, the user's eye-color will turn a jade green indicating that this stage of the Kekkai Genkai is currently being used and the user's vision is able to penetrate the surface of objects/things such as human skin, allowing them to see what's inside (human bone). This ability only allows the user to see through an inch or two, much like a true X-ray.

To Obtain:

❶ The user must face a situation of high stress in which improved vision would be beneficial in some way.
Or
❷ The user must spend ten or more posts in mediation (At once or at different times.) despite having full chakra at the time.

Abilities

X-ray Microscopy
Rank: D
Type: Doujutsu | Supplementary
Range: 3 Feet
Prerequisites: X-ray Vision must be active.
Description: The user is able to focus their vision to detect very small objects, enhancing them under their eyes, allowing them to see things at a nearly microscopic level. This effect ranges up to a 40X Zoom.

Stage Two
Ultraviolet Vision

Description: This is the second stage of the Kansatsuryoku, which grants the user the ability to see things in ultraviolet. At this stage, the user's ability to detect wavelengths have increased allowing the user to pick up on the long wavelengths of ultraviolet radiation. When activated, the user's eyes will turn violet and the user will seen everything in a screen of violet thus toning down the brightness and damage of certain things such as flash bombs. Using this stage of vision, the user will be able to detect objects normally unseen, such as bodily fluids, sweat, blood, and otherwise which have long since become invisible to normal eyesight.

To Obtain:

❶ Must have trained in using X-Ray Vision for more than fifteen posts.

Abilities

Kuroi Ten [Black Spot]
Rank: D
Type: Ninjutsu | Supplementary
Description: The user is able to create a chakra mark which can only be seen under black light or Ultraviolet Vision. Said mark is permanent, and cannot be removed by anyone but the user. The mark can be placed on any object or person with a mere touch. Said mark has no ill effects. This jutsu can be taught to non bloodline members, so long as it is taught by a member of the bloodline, with the proper stage unlocked.

Spectrophotometry
Rank: C
Type: Doujutsu | Supplementary
Range: 3 Feet
Prerequisites: Ultraviolet Vision must be active.
Description: Using this ability, the user will be able to identify the chemical structure and makeup of many objects, allowing them to know exactly what it is as well as find out specific information on any special abilities/construction of the item. The user must have previous relevant knowledge and experience for the latter effect to work.

Stage Three
Infrared Vision

Description: At this point in time, the user has developed a good control over their ability and is able to move onto the next step which is infrared vision. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths than ultraviolet radiation but a lower frequency. During activation, the user's eyes will turn an amber color and by absorbing chakra to bend the visible spectrum of light, the user can now see clearer the left over heat impressions made by people as well as their heat signatures. Their vision then turns into a set color palette of dark indigo to white representing the different body temperature radiating off the things in the user's sight. This gives the user the ability to see heat signatures through walls, the ground, and other solid objects to lock onto those who may be hiding.

To Obtain:

❶ Must have trained in using X-Ray Vision for more than thirty posts.
❷ Must have trained in using Ultraviolet Vision for more than fifteen posts.

Abilities

Netsuryou Kanran [Temperature Viewing]
Rank: C
Type: Doujutsu | Supplementary
Range: 15 Feet
Prerequisites: Infrared Vision must be active.
Description: By focusing and enhancing their sight, the user is able to pick up not only immediate heat signatures, but residual heat signatures as well. Residual heat is left behind wherever a person has recently passed by, and can last as much as a few hours after the heat source is gone. This jutsu can be used to both track these residual signatures to their source, and determine how long it has been since they were left.

Hi-to Heitei [Heat Suppression]
Rank: C
Type: Ninjutsu | Supplementary
Description: Through their knowledge of heat signatures, the user is able to suppress their own, masking it with chakra in order to appear invisible to any method of detecting heat.

Stage Four
Visions of Time

Description: The user has finally reached the point in their training where they have fully mastered the basic 'sights' given by their bloodline. Having trained their mind and hearing to the max, the user now must go beyond that for this last and final stage of the Kansatsuryoku. At this stage, the user has finally awakened the ability to spot the long wavelengths created by radio waves and detect chakra imprints between all of the visual spectrum allowing them bend the radio waves / chakra imprints to create flashes of imagery projected on objects.

To Obtain:

❶ Must be at least a Jounin to achieve this level of sight.
❷ Must have trained in using X-Ray Vision for more than 45 posts.
❸ Must have trained in using Ultraviolet Vision for more than thirty posts.
❹ Must have trained in using Infrared Vision for more than fifteen posts.

Abilities

Psychometry [Past Sight]
Rank: A
Type: Doujutsu | Supplementary
Range: 6 Feet
Prerequisites: Visions of Time must be active
Description: The user releases their chakra into the air in a specific area, merging the chakra with chakra and sound wave imprints in the chosen area. The airborne chakra then becomes visible and/or audible, as the user desires, creating an afterimage of events within a specific time in the past, chosen by the user. These afterimages can be seen and heard by others in the area, as they are created from the user's chakra.
The cost of the jutsu varies according to how far back the user goes.
E-rank cost = up to 3 posts back [Fifteen Minutes]
D-rank cost = up to 6 posts back [Thirty Minutes]
C-rank cost = up to 9 posts back [Forty Five Minutes]
B-rank cost = up to 12 posts back [One Hour]
A-rank cost = up to 15 posts back [Two Hours]
S-rank cost = up to 20 posts back [Four Hours]
Each post back counts as one post of using the doujutsu.

Sangai Bunshin [Past Clone]
Rank: A
Type: Ninjutsu | Supplementary
Range: 15 Feet
Prerequisites: Psychometry, Visions of Time must be active
Description: Like Psychometry, the user floods their chakra into an imprint, recreating a person or object from the past. However, in this usage only one object is recreated rather than an area, and furthermore, the chakra construct is solid. As with Psychometry the object or person will still only repeat what they had already done, and cannot be manipulated in any way. The object itself is as strong as the rank of chakra put into it, and will completely block any strike weaker than itself, while being destroyed by any stronger. The jutsu can cost anywhere from E to S rank, but can only be used up to your own rank. Because the object has already been found with Psychometry, there is no additional cost in chakra or sight besides creating the construct. A construct can be revived from any time period, so long as the user has seen it before. All constructs must be of actual historical events in the guild.
