Inuzuka Revamps

[KID GAMBINO.]

Rezakiba Shuurai [Razor Fang Attack]
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Offensive / Secret Technique
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Consumption: Low - Very High
Special: User builds chakra into their claws and strikes the opponent with a raking swipe, the damage dealt equivalent to the user's highest rank attained.
Description: Rezakiba Shuurai is a powerful chakra assault created by the specialized wild clansmen of the Inuzuka. The process in which the technique is performed is quite simple. While using the Four-Legged Technique, the user sends waves of chakra to either one of their hands, building chakra before they lash forth, releasing the chakra in a slashing manner. The sharp-edged chakra travels in a crescent motion, capable of tearing through skin and bone easily. Any defense of equal rank or lower damaged by the specified rank by this technique will be pierced.
Domain: Inuzuka. Shikyaku no Jutsu per rank.

Touchouyaku [Towering Leap]
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: See special!
Consumption: Low - Very High
Special: User sends waves of chakra into their lower composition, building pressure before releasing it in an violent manner, propelling the user in a specific direction for a specific distance. Highest rank attained determines range and damage inflicted upon the user if they fell from the specified distance:

[/b] 20 meters
C: 40 meters
B: 60 meters
A: 80 meters
S: 100 meters[/ul]Description: Touchouyaku is one of the few techniques within the Inuzuka that does not focus specifically on offensive or defensive maneuvers. While using the Four-Legged Technique, the user builds chakra within their legs, targeting the muscle within the calf, shin, and soles of the feet. Once enough chakra has been gathered, the user releases the chakra beneath them, aiming their body in a specific direction as they obtain propulsion. The distance traveled through the use of this technique can last mere seconds due to the sheer concussive force dispensed. Due to the dangerous nature in which this technique is performed, it can only be used up to three times within a thread. Anyone who surpasses this limit will experience severe leg pain, greatly reducing their movements.
Domain: Inuzuka. Shikyaku no Jutsu 'D'.

Banjin Soshaku [Savage Bite]
Rank: C
Type: Offensive / Secret Technique
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Consumption: Mid
Special: Each time retrained, the user can hold their jaw firmly locked against a target for an additional turn, for up to five turns max.
Description: Banjin Soshaku is one of the more beastly attacks within Inuzuka. Through rigorous jaw-locking exercises, the user is capable of biting and tearing a tangible object, such as skin, with ease. While using the Four-Legged Technique, the user can manipulate their body by utilizing chakra, allowing the jaw to become fixed and resolute, dealing 'C' ranked damage to the object. Any being caught within the jaws of a user utilizing this technique will experience intense pain as the fangs of the user digs into their body, drawing blood as a result.
Domain: Inuzuka. Shikyaku no Jutsu 'D'.

Kaori Danchigai [Pheromone Divergence]
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: See description!
Special: Allows the user to analyze the scent of a specific being/object in a specific area at least three days [IC] prior to the technique's use, plus an additional day each time retrained, for up to 14 days max. Must have the scent of what is being tracked when the technique is activated.
Description: Kaori Danchigai is known as one of the Inuzuka Clan's most prized hunting techniques, allowing the user to hone their senses to that of a canine, obtaining and trailing the scent of a specific being/object. Once the user obtains the scent of the being/object, which can be retrieved from something/someone that had recently touched it, the user relies on their animalistic nature, sniffing the air briefly to follow the scent. The advanced senses of the user allows them to specify a single scent in an area which can be clogged with dozens of them, which inevitably leads the user to the targeted creature/item, if the scent is still present.
Domain: Inuzuka. Inuzuka no Jutsu 'B'.

Doubutsu Nagori [Feral Awareness]
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: See description!
Special: Allows the user to memorize a scent for up to a month, plus an additional month each time retrained, for up to one year max.
Description: Doubutsu Nagori is another branch of the Inuzuka's hunting techniques, allowing the user simply rely on memory alone in order to retrieve a scent. The user can remember the scent of something for up to one month [IC] prior to the technique's use. The description of the technique is quite simple: a specific scent enters the user's nostrils, which is embedded into the user's memory. This allows the user to reveal if someone is impersonating another through pure scent alone.
Domain: Inuzuka. Inuzuka no Jutsu 'C'.

The following techniques were created by Exar. Revamped from this thread.

Chikatsuuga [Hidden Piercing Fang]
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: Half the total range of Tsuuga.
Consumption: Mid
Special: Allows the user to perform Tsuuga through solid objects or mediums such as water, or even the earth itself, and not lose momentum or control in the process.
Description: By encasing oneself in a thin layer of chakra, upon performing a Tsuuga attack, the user can travel through solid mediums with the same ease as if he were traveling through the air. With this technique, one could burrow underground and come up for a surprise attack, or travel underwater. It can be used as both an assault or escape tactic, giving it much utility.
Domain: Inuzuka. Shikyaku no Jutsu 'C'. Tsuuga.

Satsugai Renda [Eviscerating Barrage]
Rank: C
Type: Offensive / Secret Technique
Range: Self
Consumption: Mid
Special: User can strike twice per second, once with each claw. Each time retrained, the amount of times the user can strike is increased by two for another second, up to twelve strikes total. Each single strike does a 'D' Rank amount of damage, however, this damage does not stack against defenses.
Description: One of the more basic Inuzuka attacks, Satsugai Renda is known as characteristically straight forward, relying entirely on a quick and dirty bombardment of light strikes. Speed is the emphasis of this technique, which is themed with overwhelming an opponent with multiple weak strikes, leaving the victim vulnerable to a more powerful and definitive attack. As such, it is often used as a set-up ability.
Domain: Inuzuka. Shikyaku no Jutsu 'C'.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/justify]

The way this is worded it sounds as if it would allow you to make an S ranked taijutsu strike at an opponent as long as they have Shikyaku no Jutsu at 'S' rank. I'm going to have to ask this be multi-ranked for the simple fact that its an offensive attack and not a supplementary action such as your Touchouyaku [Towering Leap] technique.

Banjin Soshaku [Savage Bite]
Rank: C
Type: Offensive / Secret Technique
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Mid
Special: Each time retrained, the user can hold their jaw firmly locked against a target for an additional turn.

Domain: Inuzuka. Must know Shikyaku no Jutsu 'D'.

Put a limit on how many times this can be retrained.

Doubutsu Nagori [Feral Awareness]
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: See description!
Special: Allows the user to memorize a scent for up to a month, plus an additional month each time retrained.
Description: Doubutsu Nagori is another branch of the Inuzuka's hunting techniques, allowing the user simply rely on memory alone in order to retrieve a scent.

This allows the user to reveal if someone is impersonating another through pure scent alone.
Domain: Inuzuka. Inuzuka no Jutsu 'S'.

Why does this require the S ranked version of Inuzuka no jutsu? Also, like banjin soshaku, this needs to have a limit to how many times it can be retrained.

Razor Fang Attack - That is originally how I had the jutsu, but then I revamped it into relying solely on Four-Legged Technique. It was accepted this way before and dozens of justu work this way, no need for this one to be any different.

Savage Bite - Added retraining limitation.

Pheromone Divergence - Added retraining limitation.

Feral Awareness - I felt like this is as hardcore as the Inuzuka could get when it came to their advanced senses and smell, so I felt that complete mastery over the Dog Sense technique was necessary. However, since I don't really care that much for it, I've lowered it to 'A' Rank instead. Also added retraining limitation.

Rezakiba Shuurai

Modified.

[chiatsuki]

Rezakiba Shuurai [Razor Fang Attack]
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Type: Offensive / Secret Technique
Range: 0 - 5 meters
Chakra: Low - Very High
Special: User strengthens claws and strikes the opponent with a raking swipe, the damage dealt equivalent to the user's highest rank attained.
Description: Rezakiba Shuurai is a powerful physical assault created by the specialized wild clansmen of the Inuzuka. The process in which the technique is performed is quite simple. While using the Four-Legged Technique, the user sends waves of chakra to either one of their hands, building chakra before they lash forth, releasing the chakra in an explosive manner. Any animate being sustains critical damage depending on the rank used against them, and any defense of equal rank or lower damaged by the specified rank by this technique will be pierced.
Domain: Inuzuka. Must know Shikyaku no Jutsu.

Also. What type of damage would this do to an opponent if he or she is stricken?

In addition to the modification, with Exar's permission, I have also added two of his techniques, Hidden Piercing Fang and Eviscerating Barrage, to the roster. Any remaining staffers, please do not overlook them as well.

[chiatsuki]

Chikatsuuga [Hidden Piercing Fang]
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: Half the total range of Tsuuga.
Chakra: Mid
Special: Allows the user to perform Tsuuga through solid objects or mediums such as water, or even the earth itself, and not lose momentum or control in the process.

Domain: Inuzuka.

Okay. Since this technique is used in conjunction with tsuuga the user should have learned it before being able to learn this technique. So under domain place 'must know Tsuuga.'


I have no problem with the second technique since the damage does not stack.

[KID GAMBINO.]

k, done.

[chiatsuki]

unless anyone has anything else to say about these.

¹ / 2

All of the techniques as they currently are look acceptable to me.

Just a question for you before I do accept, though. For the technique Doubutsu Nagori, I'm torn between saying that your character can simply choose to remember a scent [so long as they have experienced the scent in person and not just in a profile-written historical backstory] forever without having to worry about training a technique like this. If it were to be accepted and used as a technique, I'd want it to be D or C rank, because I don't really see the point in spending 150 exp on a passive that is so relatively trivial. What would your opinion on the matter be?

[KID GAMBINO.]

Now that you mention it, I completely understand where you are coming from, because I never considered how this technique differed from the ability to naturally remember a scent. The purpose of this technique was to be able to instantly remember the scent of something you encountered before, the amount of scents memorized countless, and the duration of the memorization being quite long, because I'm not sure if it is realistic for one to be able to remember the scent of something from a month, or even a year before. The "enhanced" trait that separates this from normally remembering a scent is how quick you can remember, being almost instantaneous, and the amount. In addition, it was also used as a way to tell the difference between someone/something you encountered and fakes, but I also don't know if this would still be useful [seeing as if one tried to replicate someone/something, could they replicate the scent as well?].

As a result, I have lowered the technique to C-Rank, although the technique has lost quite a bit of significance to me since you have revealed the similarities between this and something that can be naturally done. If the above traits are not enough for this to be considered a technique, then I will gladly remove it.

[.DEVIOUS]

It's all good as it is now. 2/2

[KID GAMBINO.]

Moved this back upon noticing a few errors. Changed all techniques that had "Chakra" labeled as the costs to "Consumption", the cost name for Nintaijutsu based techniques, and added Four-Legged Technique to the Domains that didn't have them, but should've.
