--- OUTWARDS APPEARANCE

A breathtaking raven beauty, Naoi embodies everything that a woman should be; calm, kind, and seductive. Being of a more slender build, her frail visage is oxymoronic of her deadly talents. Definition of her muscles are slight, with the exception of a tight, and feminine core. Her eyes are a peculiar shade of brown, sometimes appearing a solid black, and on offtimes, an odd burgundy, more leaning towards the red side. The curvature of her face is particularly Far Eastern, along with with the formation of her eyes and the size of her petite nose. She is a very small statured woman, only being at about 5"7' and weighing in at a mere 112 pounds, but she still manages to turn this natural disadvantage into an artificial advantage.

Naoi's garb is a perfect balance of fashion and functionality, with light carbon armaments protecting vital striking points on her body coupled with silk linings and floral patterns. The predominant colors are a crimson red and soft, almost faded pink. Hot pink can also be located throughout the outfit. Naoi dons a pink long sleeve shirt minus the right sleeve. Her right arm is bare aside a a sturdy plated glove and carbon forearm and shoulder protector, both to protect from disarmament of her weapo.n She wears a pair of carbon shingaurds sporting a furry lining and a small ball of fur on the outward side of the calf. On her feet are black socks and sandals with a bleached white lacing.

--- INWARDS APPEARANCE

[/left][/size]

An upscale individual, Naoi reeks of scent of a dignity and independence that make it very hard to sway her from her ideals. She is a bright individual, very keen and has the pinnacle of book smarts, often correcting her lesser peers in a slightly snooty fashion. Nevertheless, she is a friendly individual, generally approachable, and often times loquacious. Despite having a mass amount of concrete knowledge, she is very naive and believes the best in people, often finding her self at a loss when they turn around and hurt her. These kind and passive ideals often bring about mixed thoughts in the observer, confusing the person as they try and add up the gentle, optimistic psych with her hardened battle composure.

Training Weights
Rank: C, B, A
Type: Accessory / Self
Special: 'C' ranked version is for Tai Tertiaries; 'B' for Tai Secondaries; finally, 'A' ranked version is for Taijutsu Primaries. When worn, all leg related Taijutsu is improved by the equivalent weight rank, but the user suffers a speed loss equivalent to half their normal movement speed. However, when removed, a large speed boost is gained, equal to double the user's normal speed, and lasts for as many turns as the user had the weights equipped for. Once a boost is used, another cannot be performed until the user re-equips the weights for double the amount of turns used to charge the previous boost - i.e. if the user has it on the first time for 3 turns and took it off, then they can only boost again in the same thread if the user now wears it for 6 turns. The recounter is restarted once the user leaves the thread.
Description: Though an old fashioned training method, taijutsu specialists use these extremely heavy weights to increase their speed and movement. These weights are usually worn under the warmers on the user's lower legs. When removed, the user gains a great increase in their speed and mobility. The weights are marked with the kanji for "guts".

-- SOJUTSU

SPOILER: Click to show

EXP; 200
Sojutsu (Art of the Spear)
Rank: D, C, B, A S
Type: Passive / Taijtusu / Sojutsu
Range: See special!
Special: Range is determined by spear. Allows the user to essentially pierce stronger barriers and with more strikes as they delve deeper into the art and learn more techniques.
Description: Sojutsu, or the art of the spear, is an art almost if not just as ancient as any other art of weapons, highly regarded for its forward piercing power, its long reach, and its close range blunt attacks. Sojutsu derives its basic form with a stance where the user's off hand shoulder is facing forward, their torso is facing left or right, and their dominant shoulder is at the rear. The dominant hand is at the rear of the spear, the off hand is near the front of the spear and the legs are slightly spread and the user is slightly crouched.
Domain: Sojutsu

Shokubutsu Tane (Sow Seed)
Rank: D
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu / Sojutsu
Range: 0 - 1 meter (+ Spear Range)
Stamina: Low
Special: The user thrusts forward and then immediately retracts their spear in a lightning-fast attack. Rank of damage is equal to the spear's base rank, plus the user's highest Sojutsu ranka acting as bonus penetrating damage. Can be used once per thread, plus one more each time retrained.
Description: A simple yet effective move, the most basic and first taught move of sojutsu is the basic thrust. Using the momentum of the whole body to move the spear forward and then retracting with the same force to create a offensive pierce.
Domain: Sojutsu.

Minori (Harvest)
Rank: D
Type: Offensive / Taijutsu / Sojutsu
Range: 0 - 1 meter (+ Spear Range)
Stamina: Low
Special: Damage is equal to spear's base rank. Allows the user to strike more than once with each spin. When first learned, up to 1 spin can be made; each time retrained, an additional spin is gained per use, resulting in additional strikes per each use. For every 5 spins trained for blocking, the Stamina Consumption of this technique rises by one level.
Description: For when the user dispatches one opponent in the front and has one in the back or to thwart a rear assault. The user spins their spear in a clock wise formation so that it creates a full circle with the tip of the spear, the direction from head to toe. The user then turns around at the end with their spear facing the opposite direction. The spear serves to stave off and create distance between the user and any person in front or behind them. The user then immediately turns to face a new threat.
Domain: Sojutsu

Kyuu Bara (Sudden Thorns)
Rank: C
Type: Offensive / Defensive / Taijutsu / Sojutsu
Range: 0 - 1 meter (+ Spear Range)
Stamina: Mid
Special: The user draws back for a second and then rapidly jabs forward creating 2 strikes of their spear at once, plus 1 more for each time retrained. Damage is dependent on the spear's base rank, plus the user's highest 'Sojutsu' rank for extra penetrating power. For every 4 thrusts the user can deliver at once, the Stamina Consumption of this technique rises by one level.
Description: The forte of the spear is that unlike other weapons it neither needs to be sheathed nor does it maintain a heavy weight while being used with two hands. The user is able to suddenly surprise their opponent with a flurry of forward thrusts to halt even the bravest charger, and gore the most foolish.
Domain: Sojutsu. Shokubutsu Tane (Sow Seed).



Doragon Chuuseki (Dragon Pillar)
Rank: C
Type: Defensive / Taijutsu / Sojutsu
Range: 0 - 1 meter (+ Spear Range)
Stamina; Low
Special: The user, to avoid what seems like a dangerous attack, plants the point of their spear in the ground and raises themselves in a near-instant fashion to the top of the end of the spear, leaving them in the air and the pole of their spear supporting them, like a circus act of balancing. Can be used only once per thread, plus one more each time retrained.
Description: A technique only adept sojutsu users have been able to master, the user plants their spear in the ground and soars above the pole to reach the top avoiding what could have been a lethal strike.
Domain: Sojutsu

-- SHUNPO

SPOILER: Click to show

EXP; 125
Shunpo (Flashing Light Steps)
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary / Taijutsu / High-Speed Movement
Range: 0 - 10 meters
Stamina: Low
Special: Shunpo is much like Shunshin, a forward-moving high-speed technique that transports the user across a short space in the blink of an eye. When used, the user will rush almost instantly to wherever they are facing. The user can Shunpo once per thread, plus once more each time retrained. One cannot attack or perform techniques during Shunpo.
Description: Shunpo, a Taijutsu master's response to the Body Flicker Technique, relies solely on the user's ability to harness their inner ki and gain enough stamina to withstand the sudden strain imposed on one's legs. However, once properly trained, the Taijutsu Type will find their legs moving at speeds unknown to common man, to the point most would make the foolish mistake of assuming one is using Shunshin. However, unlike that chakra inspired run, Shunpo is pure stamina and movement skill, allowing for tighter, quicker, and more reactionary movements essential for someone that relies on movement. Although Shunpo itself moves in a single line, its many variations is what makes it so lethal.
Domain: Shunpo - Universal Taijutsu.


Shunpo-Tweh (Light Step Retreat)
Rank: B
Type: Passive / Taijutsu / High-Speed Movement
Range: Shunpo!
Stamina: --
Special: Gives the user the option to perform a Shunpo backwards.
Description: Although Shunpo is normally executed in a linear fashion, with enough training, the Taijutsu Master can learn to limit their forward travel speed in exchange for a near-instantaneous backwards move. This essentially allows rapid movement to retreat or create distance between user and opponent.
Domain: Shunpo - Universal Taijutsu.

SPOILER: Click to show

EXP; 0
Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Replacement Technique)
Rank: E
Type: Supplementary / Ninjutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Very Low
Special: Switch is near-instantaneous. Kawarimi can only be used once per thread, plus one more each time retrained. However, the technique itself can only be used once per turn, regardless of retraining. Requires the user to switch with objects equal or smaller in size; cannot switch with other living people or animals.
Description: This jutsu lets the user quickly switch places with another nearby object, such as a plant (normally a section of a log), an animal, the moment an attack hits. This creates an optical illusion, making the enemy think the attack was successful. The user can then use this confusion to escape or launch a counter-attack - i.e. exploding tags can be attached to the replacement for an added surprise.
Domain: Academy Ninjutsu.


Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique)
Rank: E
Type: Supplementary / Ninjutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters

Rank: E
Type: Supplementary / Ninjutsu
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Very Low
Special: Allows the user to create a clone without substance that resembles the user in every way, including retaining its movement speed. Clones cannot mold chakra nor perform jutsu, nor can they harm. Up to one clone can be made, plus one more each time retrained.
Description: Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique which every ninja learns at the Ninja Academy. The Bunshin technique creates a copy of the ninja without substance that, although easily seen through by those with doujutsu, can fool the normal eye easily. Why? Simply because although without substance, the copy resembles the ninja in every way. This clone can function as a distraction or as means to confuse one's opponent, though no real damage can be done by it. Finally, as soon the Bunshin gets attacked or comes into contact with an opponent, it will disperse.
Domain: Academy Ninjutsu


Kakuremino no Jutsu (Magic Cloak of Invisibility Technique)
Rank: E

D: 50 meters

Description: Katon, the birth of the flame itself. With but a mere thought, masters of the flame learn to birth their fire over large expanses. Intense training opens the door for other techniques, but they all rely on one simple core - the user's ability to birth a flame from a distance.
Domain: Katon.

Housenka no Jutsu (Mythical Fire Phoenix Technique)
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Offensive / Katon Ninjutsu
Range: See special!
Chakra: Low - Mid
Special: Distance of fireballs and intensity of flames depends on the highest rank known of 'Enkou Shinka'. Up to one fireball can be made, plus one more each time retrained.
Description: Basic yet very effective within the Katon arsenal of jutsu, this technique allows the ninja to emit a series of small fire balls after a simple set of handseals are made. The ninja can also hurl a projectile which is covered in these same flames.
