UZUMAKI (Sealing Life-Force)

[Jae]

uzumaki

The Uzumaki are a now defunct clan that were former allies of the Hidden Leaf, and once rulers of their own hidden village called Uzushiogakure; the Hidden Eddy Village.

It's members were renowned for their bright red hair, and for possessing incredibly strong life forces and chakra. Since their village's disbandment, most of the Uzumaki have dispersed across the shinobi world. They share distant blood relations with the Senju, and kept close ties with them in the past, with members at times marrying in between clans.

At the end of the Warring States periods, the Leaf and the Uzumaki's own Ushiziogakure remained close allies over the following decades, with the Uzumaki providing fūinjutsu, among other things, to the village whenever there was a need.

But despite their talents, the Uzumaki were mostly wiped out of existence in a turbulent civil war within their own village.

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

Kongō Fūsa (Adamantine Sealing Chains)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive, Defensive, Supplementary
Description: These chains are formed by a member of the Uzumaki clan, using chakra to mold them offensively rather than the ones used for sealing purposes. Using this technique, the clan member manifests chakra-based chains from their body which they can then use to attack and pulverize a target. Despite these chains having been stated to being an incomplete version of the Adamantine Sealing Chains, the clan member is able to use this technique to combat larger, more imposing jutsu techniques effectively, including summons and medium to large creatures. While said to be incomplete, the clan member can use this to not only attack with the chains, but also neutralize their target by binding and nullifying their chakra with the chains. When used against human opponents, this can send them flying some distance away, leaving the victim incapacitated with a direct hit. Lastly, the user also capable of manipulating the size of the chains to fit the situation.



Kongō Fūsa (Adamantine Sealing Chains)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive, Supplementary
Description: This is a sealing technique that is characteristic of the Uzumaki clan. Users produce chains made out of their own chakra, which typically emerge from their torso. Users control the chains as they extend outwards from their body, most commonly to wrap around targets and restrain them. The chains are extremely durable, enough that even large, chakra based entities would struggle to destroy them. In addition to physically binding targets, the chains are said to neutralize their target by binding and nullifying their chakra. Depending on the number and the length of chains that users intend to produce, they may prefer to initially create only a few chains, which they send underground to split apart and spread around the area as needed, leaving their immediate surroundings uncluttered. A barrier can be erected between two or more sealing chains, which is quite impregnable. Because the chains are made of the user's chakra, the chains can be produced anywhere the user's chakra resides.



Kamikiru Jisuru (Heal Bite)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Description: On top of having amazing sealing skills, the Uzumaki possess unique bodies that have healing capabilities. Through biting and consuming the user's chakra, they can heal the injuries of others, as well as themselves. This ability has been shown to heal even life-threatening injuries, and is also capable of quickly restoring the stamina of those healed. This technique, however, rapidly depletes the user's own chakra reserves, leaving them with a presumably permanent bite mark after each use. Due to the technique's accelerated depletion of chakra, it is dangerous for one to use this ability too regularly, as clan members normally refrain from doing so more than once a day.



Shishō Fūin (Four Symbol's Seal)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Description: This technique requires a great deal of talent to perform. The Uzumnaki applies the seal's formula to an object or a human's body, sealing a large enemy or an evil spirit within them. If two Four Symbols Seal are used, a stronger seal is created; this is called the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style. If the Four Symbols Seals do not completely overlap with each other, this allows the enemy/spirit's chakra to merge with whoever they've been sealed into. This is how the Uzumaki clan became infamous for their ability to seal demonic presences and otherworldly entities possessing high chakra reserves into the body/vessel of their choice.



Hakke no Fūin Shiki (Eight Trigrams Sealing Style)
Rank: S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Description: A Four Symbols Seal is used to seal a large enemy or an evil spirit into a target, such as an object or a human's body. A stronger seal is created if two Four Symbols Seal are used; this is called the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style. If the Four Symbols Seals do not completely overlap with each other, this allows the enemy/spirit's chakra to merge with whoever they've been sealed into. The Uzumaki created this seal with the intention to encourage sealed spirits to aid the vessel they've been sealed within, as the more they provide chakra, the weaker the seal becomes, and thus the better their chance of freedom. This seal also allows the user to communicate with their sealed spirit, as they can enter a subconscious plane of their own imaginative creation. The spirit sealed within is separated from the rest of this 'communication complex' by a large cage; the bars of the cage are far enough apart for the user to walk between them, but the spirit is kept at bay. The cage's doors are secured by a sheet of parchment with "seal" (封) written on it, behind which is the cage's lock.



Shiki Fūjin (Dead Demon Consuming Seal)
Rank: S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Offensive
Description: The Dead Demon Consuming Seal is a sealing technique developed by the Uzumaki clan to call upon the power of the Shinigami. After the hand seals are performed, the user's soul is partly separated from their body and suspended behind them. Behind their soul appears the Shinigami, which restrains their soul with its hair. Only the summoner is able to see the Shinigami at this point. After a few moments, the Shinigami wraps its left arm with prayer beads and chants unintelligibly until a cursed seal appears on its arm. It then drives its arm into the summoner's soul, thus allowing the summoner to call upon the Shinigami to seal a target, as it's arm emerges from the summoner's body and grasps the target's soul. Targets are only able to see the Shinigami so long as it's in contact with their soul.

While the Shinigami grabs their soul, the target is immobilized, any jutsu they may be using are dispelled, and they are prevented from performing additional jutsu. With targets unable to escape or fight back, the summoner can remove and seal their soul away. The target's soul is sealed within the body of the summoner, represented by a swirl pattern on their torso that is similar in appearance to the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style. With the sealing completed, the Shinigami gradually starts consuming the summoner's soul. The summoner can, with difficulty, continue moving and speaking, allowing them to finish any lingering business they may have, but they will die as soon as their soul has been fully consumed. The souls of the summoner and their victim do not pass on to the Pure Land, instead being trapped within the Shinigami's stomach, destined to fight each other for all eternity.

Souls can only be freed from the Shinigami's stomach by using Dead Demon Consuming Seal: Release (屍鬼封尽・解, Shiki Fūjin: Kai). To use, an individual wears the Shinigami Mask, causing them to become possessed by the Shinigami. If the individual wearing the mask slices open their own stomach, the Shinigami will do the same, and any souls inside it will be freed. However, the mask doesn't have any properties that will prevent its user from dying of that injury.
