ζʹ— Shikigami Masteries; Tier One - Literary Adaptation: Being able to manipulate the countless folds of paper their bodies are capable of reverting into, Shikigami possess an adept level of chakra control. Through greater means of focus and refinement of their technique(s), Shikigami that have mastered their art to this degree have reduced the cost (to cast and sustain) of their kekkei genkai specific jutsu by a single tier.

Serufu Hatoronshi no Kami (Self Crafting Paper Skill)
Rank: D, D
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Mid per transformation

This jutsu allows a Shikigami to transform themselves into paper. The Shikigami forces their chakra into the corresponding limb or area, transforming the flesh and bone into paper with strength comparable to steel. While this does pose some relatively high risks, the pay off is equally substantial. Due to the malleable nature of paper, the user is capable of transforming any morphed limb into whatever construct they desire.

Note: The user may convert their entire body into paper a maximum of five times per thread. However, the user may convert one appendage (and arm, leg, head, or the torso; converting two limbs at the same time will count as two separate usages) into paper a total of ten times per thread. Due to being able to transform themselves into paper at any point in time, all Shikigami are nearly impervious to non-elemental physical strikes, but are extremely susceptible to Suiton and Katon. Any and all Katon does a critical amount of damage on Shikigami, and when hit with the element they are unable to disperse and shift properly, even potentially lighting up in flames. Likewise, any and all Suiton reacts adhesively with the paper-infused chakra of the Shikigami body, thoroughly sticking the area the jutsu comes in contact with. It should be noted that Shikigami are not made of paper, but instead simply possess a genetic disorder which allows them to revert their entire bodies into such. When knocked unconscious or extremely exhausted and\or low on chakra, the user will revert to an immobile mound of paper.



Kami Gisou (Paper Camouflage)
Rank: D
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 2
Chakra Consumption: Low (on top of base jutsu cost)

One of the Shikigami's most dangerous talents is their ability to create a battlefield in advance that directly resembles the outside world. This technique allows the user to cause his or her paper to change in a variety of ways, including different pigments and folds, in order to create optical illusions.

Note: This ability requires a series of handseals -or- the paper must be changed to a certain color/appearance while the user is creating it.



Pepa Tenshin no Kami (Paper Angel Wings)
Rank: D
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 4
Chakra Consumption: Mid x2, Low (upkeep)

Grants the clan member wings that allow them to take flight. The user cannot perform any other chakra related jutsu outside of clan techniques while wings are active. After a few simple seals, the clan member can utilize their paper in order to create a flurry of wings meant for stable flight. The wings created by the user can be be any color, size, and type they wish, and will carry them across even the greatest of distances and chasms - as long as the user has enough chakra to continuously power it.



Hatoronshi Bakuha (Crafting Paper Explosive Addition)
Rank: C
Range: -
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Mid

As its name implies, the clan member is able to imbue their paper creations with explosive properties. When lit, the effect can spread over a mass amount of paper sheets; when combined with other clan jutsu, the explosive additions result in a truly terrifying offensive combination.

Note: This technique allows the Shikigami to create explosive notes at their will, up to three per post. Likewise, they can also convert a single Pepa Shuriken no Jutsu cast (all of the shuriken associated with the single cast) into explosive rounds. These abilities cannot be used at the same time (you either make notes or turn the shuriken into explosive shuriken). Furthermore, the cost of converting the paper shuriken stacks with the cost of making the shuriken.



Pepa Shuriken no Jutsu (Paper Shuriken Technique)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 2
Chakra Consumption: Mid-High

A simple yet effective paper technique. The user can take paper creations of their own and turn them into deadly shuriken. Retaining their infamous strength, these shuriken are sent flying by the user's will, resulting in a deadly barrage of projectiles.

Note: 3 shuriken can be created with the initial Mid cost, and by stacking on another Mid each, up to 12 can be created per use.



Kami Arashi no Jutsu (Paper Storm Technique)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0-5m), Mid (5-10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 6, final seal hold to control
Chakra Consumption: High, Mid (to control)

The user creates six large, levitating and spinning pieces of paper which fly around the opponent continuously in an attempt to strike the opponent off guard. These constructs take on the in the shape of shuriken (they are roughly one meter wide, an several inches thick), and possess a high amount of momentum in their movements. Unlike the Pepa Shuriken technique, this attack can be directed and manipulated, giving more lethal control to the user.

Note:The user cannot perform any other technique while this one is active; furthermore, the user must hold the final seal. If a sheet of paper strikes a solid surface, then that piece of paper loses its potency and cannot be reanimated by the user unless he or she performs the technique once more.



Kami no Chixyou (Paper Butterfly)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 4
Chakra Consumption: High

An espionage technique developed specifically for covert reconnaissance, Kami no Chixyou turns the paper user into a group of butterflies, each with the ability to scout a different location for the sake of reconnaissance. Looking like no more than a harmless butterfly, the user can get away with spying on all numbers of people and locations without themselves being seen.

Note: The user can control and see through the eyes of up to a maximum of five butterflies. The butterflies may only travel one country away, and cannot attack. Only when the remaining butterflies coalesce can the user return to normal form. When a butterfly is destroyed, the user does not take any damage, but loses all memory the butterfly might have had.



Kami no Hitoku (Concealment of Paper)
Rank: B
Range: -
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 12
Chakra Consumption: High x2, Mid x2 (upkeep)

An espionage technique developed to allow personalized reconnaissance and evasion alike, Kami no Hitoku transforms the user into a life-sized origami version of themselves. The user in this form can then contort their body into nearly any shape. When this ability is used in combination with Kami Gisou (Paper Camouflage) they can look to be almost anything.

Note: The user cannot use any technique besides Kami Gisou (Paper Camouflage) while in this form. Specifically, this ability grants the user to alter their dimensional shape (3d, 2d, 1d), which gives them greater access to a myriad of locations.



Tate Kami (Paper Shield)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: High

Sometimes, an opponent can perform a technique that can catch even a skilled warrior off-guard. In these moments, the Shikigami can call upon reserves of paper to instantly form a small protective wall up to a meter in front of him or her.

Note: This shield can protect against attacks B rank and below, but will be destroyed by attacks of a higher rank. Furthermore, any Fire or Water attack will immediately destroy it unless the user has the Tier 3 mastery, in which case only Fire and Water attacks of C rank or above will destroy it. Lasts only a single turn and requires a 1 turn cooldown.



Pepa Bunshin no Jutsu (Paper Clone Technique)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 3
Chakra Consumption: High (per clone)

Pepa Bunshin no Jutsu utilizes paper to create a Bunshin clone. Unlike a normal Bunshin, the Pepa Bunshin has the ability to interact more with the environment due to it having physical substance. This allows the clone to carry out limited attacks on its target. The range of the clone is limited however, it cannot travel very far from the original body. If the Pepa Bunshin is injured, the clone will usually revert back into its natural paper state.

Note: This clone has x2 High cap of chakra. These clones are limited to Shikigami-based jutsu and elementary chakra channeling. This includes simple abilities like water walking and tree climbing but not more advances channeling techniques such as Hien.



Kamijinheki (Paper Encampment Wall)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Defensive
Handseals: 5
Chakra Consumption: High x2

Creates a wall of paper in front of the user which protects anyone behind the wall from incoming damage. The wall created is roughly five meters high and ten meters long (from side to side).

Note: This wall can protect against attacks A rank and below, but will be destroyed by attacks of a higher rank. Furthermore, any Fire or Water attack will immediately destroy it unless the user has the Tier 3 mastery, in which case only Fire and Water attacks of C rank or above will destroy it.



Kyodaina Pepa Taoru (Giant Paper Towel)
Rank: A
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 6
Chakra Consumption: High x2, Mid (upkeep)

The user creates a giant sheet of double-ply paper (no more than 2 meters long, 2 meters wide) in front of them, much like a shield. This huge sheet soaks up any water it touches, nullifying the chakra and making that source of water unusable, as it disappears when the technique is dissipated.

Note: The paper towl can absorb up to 5 Suiton jutsu of B rank or below. It will remain until the user cannot sustain the chakra upkeep anymore, or will disappear once it has reached the limit that it can soak up. Lightning and Fire techniques of any rank will destroy it immediately.
