YUKI (Ice Demons)

[Jae]

yuki

The Yuki Clan are one of the founding families of Kirigakure, whose kekkei genkai combines the wind and water nature transformations to form ice and snow.

Like many clans of the era, the Yuki Clan were introduced to the newly formed Hidden Mist when word had spread about a powerful group of shinobi that froze the waters wherever they went.

They were given land of their own within the borders of the Land of Water in exchange for their loyalty, eventually rising to the status of a Noble Clan, with several members holding key positions within the village.

Their kekkei genkai— Hyōton, or Ice Release— can be used in a variety of ways, especially in the presence of water. Even without, Yuki clan members can use the moisture in the air to fuel their attacks, with some members being so powerful that even direct contact with fire isn't enough to melt their ice.

Joining the Yuki requires a Clan trait, as well as Kekkei Genkai trait.

This clan is currently LOCKED behind Story Mode.

[☆ F ☆]

The Yuki clan member starts with only a few unique techniques, but also, with the following perks:

• While they have to use trait points to acquire Suiton (Water) and Fuuton (Wind), they receive Hyuton (Ice) free, without the need of using up trait points to acquire the advanced release.
• When a Yuki member uses Hyouton, not only are their techniques with ice more effective, but they also have a chance of partial freezing on impact, depending on the jutsu used and how its applied in battle.
• Yuki members can create Hyouton techniques without the need of a water or ice source.
• Yuki clan techniques and regular Hyouton techniques are more resistant to heat/fire than those made by a non-Yuki user.

Sensatsu Suishō (Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Description: A signature Yuki technique, the clan member creates a myriad of long needles comprised of pure ice, which surround the target. The user carefully aims the needles at the target and fires them at rapid speeds. Targets who are struck by the needles suffer significant injury, an outcome that becomes likely due to how ever present the attack is in the first place.



Hyōgan Dōmu (Ice Rock Dome of Magnificent Nothingness)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive, Supplementary
Description: The Yuki member can quickly freeze the surrounding air and create an icy, transparent igloo-like dome around themselves and their allies in order to act as a defense. Because the ice is made from the clan member's advanced Hyouton chakra, it is strong enough to withstand the air assault of many explosive tags at once, remaining almost undamaged. Furthermore, the clan member can continuously add more ice to any damaged part of the dome with extra chakra as a result of their advanced knowledge of ice techniques.



Messatsu Suishō (Flight of the Obliterating Water)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Description: Considered to be the upgraded version of Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death, the clan member gathers a larger amount of water from the air and surrounding environment into more than a thousand ice spikes, rather than needles, which are several feel long, and incredibly sharp as well. They then direct the spikes to a specific opponent, having them converge all at once upon their victim.



Hissatsu Hyōsō (Certain-Kill Ice Spears)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Description: This Yuki technique causes several large ice spikes to emerge from below in order to impale anything in their vicinity. The rate at which this occurs is so sudden that it's considered to be a certain kill. When used inside an enclosed area, it leaves very little room for escape.



Makyō Hyōshō (Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals)
Rank : S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Description: This is the signature technique within the Yuki clan, and is performed with the "cursed" kekkei genkai of the Yuki clan. The clan member creates several large mirrors out of ice, which they surround a target with. Creating a large fleet of mirror takes some time, and must be positioned by the user through the use of their vision and their immaculate control over Hyouton. By entering one of these mirrors, the user's reflection will appear in all of them. They can then travel between these mirrors frighteningly fast, giving the appearance that they occupy all of them simultaneously. As such, any attacks the user makes from these mirrors can overwhelm opponents, seemingly coming from every mirror at once. It is important to note that although the clan member moves between the mirrors extremely quickly, it is still possible to track them.

Using the technique requires a great deal of chakra from the user, meaning the clan member cannot use it indefinitely. If the mirror the user is in is broken, they can still leap out of one of the fragments and continue their attack or move to another mirror, although there is a risk of the technique cancelling and the user suffering damage if they do not move fast enough under these circumstances. These exceptions aside, the Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals is still a formidable technique. Most victims will be unable to do anything against the clan member's attacks, as they are so fast and come from so many directions at once that it's rather difficult to see all of them. Finally, if the user completely surrounds their victims with mirrors, then they are effectively trapped, meaning only allies working from outside the dome stand a reasonable chance of saving them. Even targets who manage to keep their distance from the clan member are not safe, as they can simply form a mirror next to them, allowing him to quickly travel to and attack them.
