Tier One - Standing on Solid Ground: There is no greater foundation than the solid ground of the earth. Whether it be for a home or a temple, the earth beneath the sturcture is always the most important aspect. Doton Masters have taken the principle to an entirely, and learned to use the support of the earth in their favor. While on any natural terrain (including debris such as boulders and rocks), the user is immune to knockbacks\knowndowns.
This does not mean they cannot be tripped or kicked off their feet. It simply means that a technique that would knock your typical shinobi back, however far, will not work on Doton masters of this level. The damage is in no way dampened.
Tier Two - Earthen Repetition: Like most users of elemental ninjutsu, the greatest advantage they have over other Ninjutsu is that their resources are in such wide abundance. Doton masters of this level have learned to take full advantage of that fact, dramatically increasing the potency of their jutsu. By harnessing more minerals for their jutsu, all defensive Doton-based techniques are effectively tripled in size for no additional cost in chakra, while their offensive techniques are doubled in size.
Tsuchi Kairou (Earth Corridor)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 12
Chakra Consumption: High
Tsuchi Kairou is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After forming the necessary handseals, the user slams their hands into the ground, causing the earth to rise up and over the opponent. This creates a cavern, imprisoning the target. The user can choose to leave an opening to allow attacks to go in to strike down the trapped adversary, or close it up completely to prevent escape.
Note: The prison can have a maximum dimension of 5x5x5 meters, and can be broken by attacks of a higher rank from either the inside or outside. Prison remains indefinitely.
Tier Three - One with the Earth: There are those who consider the Earth to be a living, breathing organism. Many Doton users share this belief due to their close relationship with nature, and have learned to use this to their advantage. By tapping into the planet's natural energy source, the user can effectively sense all creatures and structures around them up to a maximum range of thirty meters so long as they (the objects in question) are touching some part of the earth. In order to use this ability, the user must be touching a part of the earth with their skin, whether it be their bare foot or a finger.
This technique is not always active, but can "activated" at anytime for at no cost to the user.
Doryuu Jouheki (Earth Style Rampart)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: 7
Chakra Consumption: High x2
Doryuu Jouheki is a Ninjutsu technique which utilizes the Earth Element. After performing the necessary handseals, a large earthen rampart will erupt from the ground beneath their feet, pushing them up into the sky. Depending on what the user imagines, the shape of the rampart can be anything from level ground to a steep, needle-like mountain. This technique is useful for increasing the amount of earth one has to work with, aiding or foiling escapes, and drastically altering the terrain.
Note: The shape of the rampart is up the user's imagination, but it can never exceed 10 meters in any dimension. Doesn't harm the opponent in any way, just changes the landscape.
