• D ~ Perception
  
• C ~ Endurance
  
• B ~ Strength
  
• A ~ Speed
  
• S ~ Chakra

Depending on the song, the user can essentially imbue a specific status effect that can either benefit or deter those within selective earshot by casting an illusion on them that makes them belief they have been blessed.

Description: A genjutsu that relies on the sound of the flute, whomever is unfortunate enough to hear it will be assailed by the vivid sensation that their limbs have been fastened with sturdy ropes, thus becoming unable to move about freely. Even without physical intervention from an outside force, the body is robbed of all mobility, and consciousness itself progressively fades away. At the same time, they are fed morbid hallucinations, which makes it also possible to run them down mentally. Given that the means of transmission is sound-based, it has a large range of effectiveness, on top of which it can be applied even without knowledge of the enemy's position, which makes for an exceedingly convenient technique.
Domain: Ototon. Must use with Demonic Flute. Must know Demonic Amplification 'B'.
EXP: 100

Might wanna provide the death thread, I already saw it though.

minor mistake that's been amended. Was approved with two releases on accident and decided to drop Raiton and the Raiton technique. Giving him an additional hundred because he dropped the B rank technique.
