[/li][li]Tsuka Dageki (Hilt Blow) [50]
Rank:C
Range:Close )0m ~ 5m)
Type:Defensive
Handseals:--
Chakra Consumption: Mid
A technique that is used by the holder of the weapon to suddenly launch the hilt of the blade outwards from any position. The main function of this attack grants the user the ability to use the blunt end of the hilt while it is still encased, and move it forward to suddenly strike the opponent. The attack is so quick, due to the method of movement, that it is a extremely difficult to predict technique, and usually ensures a hit if performed on a unsuspecting target.

Note:The stunning power of this technique is one turn after contact.

[/li][li]Sandangamaegiri (Triple Cut) [100]
Rank: B
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Offensive

Chakra Consumption: Mid [Per Attack]

This allows the practitioner to commence their attack from any position, this particular technique allows the practitioner to unsheathe their blade, before beginning to slash once and then continues on with their forward movement, which allows them to cut the opponent with additional blows with their chakra enhanced speed.

Note: This technique depends entirely on the success of the first strike. Once the first strike hits a total of two more strikes can be placed after the first one.

[/li][li]Joushou Giri (Rising Cut) [100]
Rank:B
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: High
Commencing from a crouching position, the practitioner rises, grips their blade with both hands and then delivers a devastating slash that allows them to capitalize on an overextending opponent.

Note: By continuing with the motion, the user can utilize the momentum behind the attack and follow it up with 'Morote Giri' for a fluid one-two combination.

[/li][li]Morote Giri (Two Handed Cut) [100]
Rank:B
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Offensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: High
Commencing from a standing position, the practitioner gathers their strength for one moment, and then strikes with their sword in both hands, performing a single strong attack that is capable of breaking through defenses and delivering massive damage.

[/li][li]Marugiri (Circle Cut) [100]
Rank:B
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Offensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: High
Commencing from a kneeling position, the practitioner draws, rises and spins in one fluid motion, forestalling opponents all around and then quickly sheathes. Rotating a full three hundred and sixty degrees, this cutting strike is useful for assaulting targets all around the user at once. Upon finishing the twisting cut, the user sheathes the weapon.

[/li][li]Senkou Zuki (Flash Thrust) [150]
Rank:A
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Offensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: x2 High
Using a vast amount of mental focus, the practitioner nearly-instantaneously draws, thrusts at an opponent and sheathes again, all in the blink of an eye. It is fabled that even the famed Sharingan has had trouble following a blade swung under such pretenses.

[/li][li]Sanjuu Kenippen (Triple Blade Slice) [150]
Rank:A
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Offensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: x2 High
Commencing from a kneeling position, the practitioner lunges towards one or many opponents, focusing his mind and skill on striking those before him. The user then draws, slashing from one side to the other, and spinning instantly through again for another cut, then a third and final spin to finish the opponent(s) off. The strikes are quick enough to believe one sees three blades slashing, not one and due to the erratic fashion of the technique, can be applied to multiple opponents or just one.

[/li][li]Kagirinai Hagane Hitosashi (Endless Steel Dance) [300]
Rank:S
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Offesnive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption:Massive
Commencing from a standing position, the practitioner gathers a vast amount of focus into their mind, prepared to end the lives of those before him. Then, once the user has unsheathed his blade and focused his chakra into his body, the user then lunges forward rapidly, initiating a sequence of up to ten rapid, but precise attacks. The user and his blade moves like a storm, flashing from one attack to the next relentlessly, the opponents being unable to trace one indistinguishable attack from the next.

---

[/li][li]Iaijutsu (Art of Mental Presence) [25]
Rank:D
Range:Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type:Supplementary
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: Low to cast and sustain
A defensive nature of fighting, all Iaijutsu practitioners will tend to stand in closed positions, sending chakra throughout their bodies to quicken response times. this leaves little openings and makes sure to make the least amount of wasted movement possible so as to remain solid like a rock. Once the swordsman has understood the basics of fortification, they move on to more complex defensive patterns.

[/li][li]Kawasu (To Parry) [25]
Rank: D
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: Low

Commencing from any position, the practitioner draws their sword and moves to deflect or simply block the strike, then resheathes. As the user becomes more proficient in Iaijutsu, more strikes can be defending against in a fluid movement, before they are overwhelmed by the attacks.

Note: This technique serves as a counter against multi-strike based techniques. A maximum of three techniques can be parried per use at an incredibly fast, almost "simultaneous" rate. It should be noted that these parries must be plausible, and simply because a user can defend relatively quick does not mean the are immune to being struck. As state, this will be widely considered as a multi-strike counter.

[/li][li]Ridairekuto (Redirect) [50]
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: Mid
Commencing from any position, the practitioner proceeds to unsheathe their blade and quickly strike against an incoming physical attack. But, instead of simply blocking it, the user will instead use the opponents momentum against them, which in turn forces them off balance and leaves them vulnerable to a strike afterwards. While off balance, the opponent will be unable to perform actions involving high amounts of dexterity, due to the surprise of being knocked off center.

Note:Once parried, the opponent is left off balance and unable to find their footing for half a turn.

[/li][li]Sumasshu (Smash and Defend) [50]
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: Mid
Commencing from any position, the practitioner strikes with the hilt at a frontal opponent's face, forcing him to stumble back, which allows them to follow up with a quick slash or cut. Following the mindset of 'the best defense is a great offense', the user will seek to stop an opponent from throwing an attack out in the first place, leaving them on the defensive and unable to fully utilize their offense.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/li][/ul][/font]

[li]Danger Close [50]
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Low
While Danger Close is arguably the most simplistic of all the Watcher techniques, that does not mean that it is the weakest. To the contrary, it is actually one of the most useful techniques an archer can have, as its primary function is to defend oneself against close-range fighters, the natural bane of all archers. After repeating the same nock and fire motions hundreds, if not thousands of times, an archer possesses the ability to briefly move purely through reflex and instinct, firing off a hastily aimed shot twice as fast as normal.

Note: The user nocks an arrow, aims, and fires one shot in half the time it normally takes them to do so. This ability can only be used once per thread.

[/li][li]Ricochet [50]
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Mid
A tricky technique that exemplifies how cunning an archer can be. By bouncing their arrows off the surface of an object, they undercut the opponent’s ability to defend against it, striking deep into the target when they least expect it.

[/li][li]Shotgun [50]
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Mid
The technique is one of the hallmarks of the Watcher style, firing more arrows than a normal person would believe is possible. It's been said that with proper mastery of the technique, the user can fire up to six at a time with all the ability they fire a normal one.

[/li][li]Sharpshooter [50]
Rank: C
Range: -
Type: Passive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Low
By firing an arrow in an arc instead of in a straight line, the user can “lob” an arrow, allowing it to travel further distances than normal. The downside to this art is that by curving the arrows trajectory, you are in fact adding more to the distance it needs to travel, thus increasing the amount of time it takes to actually reach the target.

Note: This ability effectively doubles the range of any single shot.

[/li][li]Suppressing Fire [100]
Rank: B
Range: -
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: High
By practicing their ability to draw, knock, aim and fire an arrow, the user can learn to quickly lay a lot of damage downrange. Suppressing Fire is aptly named, for its function is, literally, to suppress a target through overwhelming fire.

Note: This essentially allows the user to increase their movements by a profound degree, capable of preparing and firing two arrows in the time it would take to fire one. This effect last for three posts before it will need to be cast again. This ability can never be combined with Danger Close, regardless of masteries.

[/li][li]O.S.O.K. [100]
Rank: B
Range: -
Type: Passive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: High
Mastering the art of bonus tension is one of the many overlooked fundamentals of being an archer. By holding out past the point of firing, one can enhance the arrow far beyond its initial damage. The technique, therefore, is aptly named “One Shot, One Kill” due to its frequent tendency to pierce through defenses and outright kill an enemy.

Note: This ability allows the user to pierce any traditional armor, and wooden constructs such as large trees (up to three feet thick). This ability can be combined with other Archery techniques; however, the chakra cost will stack.

[/li][li]Air Burst [100]
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Mid
One of the more interesting techniques within the Watcher arsenal. The Air Burst technique is performed by, seemingly, just shooting an arrow almost straight up into the air. At least, that's how it looks to casual observers. The reality however is that the arrow isn't shot straight up, but rather at a trajectory that is so steep that it appears to be straight. The arrow is launched in such a way that as it is fired in an almost straight line, it also comes down in an almost straight line. Air Burst therefore is potent when used in a function similar to artillery, as it can bypass most defenses simply by coming from an angle most people never think to defend against. A skilled archer can launch an arrow with such accuracy that it can go high enough to stay in the air for quite some time, long enough even for an unfocused enemy to forget that it's there!

Note: The arrow can stay in the sky for a total of three posts.
