Yamanaka Clan Jutsu

[くすり]

Shinyomi no Jutsu (Mind reading technique)
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: 10 meters
Special: Must be aware of someone's existence in order to read their thoughts telepathically. Can also travel as far as the Yamanaka's Shintenshin can travel. By retraining the user can read up to 1 more mind
Description: One of the Yamanaka's most essential ability involves the transient nature of their minds and souls. In this case, by intermingling the secrets behind the techniques which allow their soul to travel forth, the Yamanaka projects their chakra around so that they can hear the minds thoughts of those around them. Essentially Shinyomi allows the Yamanaka entry into what a person is thinking, giving them them a preemptive edge in battle. While using Shinyomi the Yamanaka cannot move or use any other jutsu that requires movement. Can only read current thoughts they are having an not delve into the opponents mind. Because of expelling ones mind, the Yamanaka cannot move one turn after this jutsu is dispelled, but they can still use their clansmen jutsu.
Domain: Yamanaka.

Shinkouryo no Jutsu (Mind traveling jutsu)
Rank: A
Type: Supplementary / Secret Technique
Range: 0-20 meters
Special: Can also travel as far as the Yamanaka's Shintenshin can travel
Description: One of the Yamanaka's most essential ability involves the transient nature of their minds and souls. Mostly used for scouting without being detected the Yamanaka will project their mind/soul outwards for reconnaissance. Their mind can travel as fast as their normal body can. Although their mind/soul would not be detectable by sight it still retains a chakra signal, so it is able to be tracked by a sensor. The Yamanaka's body is rendered still while using this technique and when the jutsu is ended, the users mind snaps back to it's body at shunshin's speed.
Domain: Yamanaka.

I don't have a problem with any of these. The S rank version of the Shikanmon is questionable, so if another staffer has a problem with it I will side with them. Otherwise,

Mind Reading Technique

Make Shinkoryou A rank please?

[くすり]

I changed the B rank to A as you've asked.

Shinyomi no Jutsu (Mind reading technique)

Okay so how do you propose I can make this ability acceptable? By making it so that the Yamanaka's CP, must be higher? Any ideas?

[♠Solo♠]

I would guess Make the mind reading technique also A rank. I didn't even think about that.

[くすり]

I don't think changing the rank will make it any less acceptable since the parameters for using it or the same. Maybe having it work like the mind transfer jutsu in some way could remedy the problem.

[DAVID BOWE]

The mind reading technique is fine. As long as the only thing you can read is the persons actual thoughts during battle and not delve deep into their mind while in battle. Being a Genin and reading a Jounin's mind is also fine. I'll read the rest later but I'll easily 1.2 that mind jutsu as is.

^
But wouldn't reading minds simply allow the user to know what movement their opponent were going to do next?
Thats my argument.

[くすり]

Thats the whole point, but remember, I can't move or utilize other jutsu that require movement.

[♠Solo♠]

I guess it depends on how fast you can use the technique. If it's able to be used in battle then it probably wouldn't be fair, as someone could read their mind, know what they're doing, and maneuver to avoid it.

Yeah but it only takes that one second for you to know what your opponent is going to do for you to counteract with a second movement.

[くすり]

How about for one turn I can only use Yamanaka jutsu and and my body cannot move until the after I dispel the justsu. So I use it and hwne I stop I have to wait one turn, and can only use clan jutsu?

[永遠に]

Done deal sweetie. When you that.

iv'e been edited it.

[Fuck Yeah!]

1.2 Approved on the First

1.2 Denied on the Second - This is due to the Chief weakness of Yamanaka entering others bodies being that the damage they incur is also dealt to their own. Approving this takes away from that main weakness, even if it still allows massive damage.

1.2 Approved on the Third
