SWORD ART pls

[Mitternacht]

Iaijutsu (Art of Mental Presence)
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.



Kawasu (To Parry)
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.



Rasen Karasu-Zuki (Spiral Parry Thrust)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: Mid

Commencing from any position, the practitioner proceeds to unsheathe their blade and quickly strike down an incoming projectile, either slicing it in half or redirecting its path away from the user. Useful when faced with opponents that prefer to strike from a distance, as long as the user is able to spot the incoming threat in time. Once the user becomes more proficient at judging the distance, speed and direction of projectiles, they will be able to cut down even more projectiles in a fluid movement.

Note:Up to 15 projectiles can be parried per use



Ridairekuto (Redirect)
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.



Busoukaijo (Disarmament)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: --
Chakra Consumption: High

Commencing from any position, the practitioner strikes with the hilt or blade at the opponent's wrist, mid-strike or not, forcing them to drop any item or weapon they are holding, then the user sheathes. This method is used to prevent the user from becoming overwhelmed by a stronger foe, or to simply provide the opportunity for a successful follow-up attack.

Note: This technique will automatically cause the victim to let go of their weapon if struck.
