Cost: 1,000 ryo | 2,000 ryo | 3,000 ryo.



Unique ink utilized by the Sumi clan, their medium of choice can literally jump from the pages utilizing the proper techniques.

D-rank ink bottles can facilitate five jutsu; C-rank bottles ten jutsu; B-rank bottles fifteen jutsu.



Note: 2 per pack, regardless of rank. Water greatly diminishes the effectiveness of the ink.

{Back To Basics}
Kawarimi no Jutsu (Body Replacement Technique)
Rank: E
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Miniscule

Kawarimi no Jutsu is an Academy Ninjutsu technique. When in danger the user will quickly substitute themselves with another nearby object - generally a block of wood, or other similar object - the moment an attack lands. This creates an optical illusion, making the enemy think the attack was successful. From this, the user can use the lapse in the enemy's attention to attack or flee from the battlefield. Explosive tags can be attached to the placement for an added surprise!



Note: Switch is near-instantaneous. This technique can only be used once per turn. Item switched with must be somewhat mentioned prior to use, in previous turns (most likely during area descriptions). While one can switch with a variety of things it needs to be within reason, switching with a chair, log, fallen tree is acceptable, but switching with a dust particle is obviously not.






Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique)
Rank: E
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 3
Chakra: Miniscule: Miniscule [cast + sustain]

Henge no Jutsu is an Academy Ninjutsu technique. After performing a set of handseals, the user takes on the form of another object, whether it be an animal, plant, or inanimate object. This transformation is exactly like the genuine article, so it is impossible to tell the two apart without special methods.

Note: The user must transform themselves into an object of similar proportions and mass is conserved. This means that one cannot Henge into a Bijuu, summon, or other gigantic object. It should also be noted that while you can transform into a rock, you will not have it's hardness and while you can turn into a bird you will not necessarily understand how to fly.




Bunshin no Jutsu (Clone Technique)
Rank: E
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 3
Chakra: Miniscule [per clone]

Bunshin no Jutsu is an Academy Ninjutsu technique. After performing a set of handseals, the user creates an intangible copy of themselves. This clone has no substance, so it is not able to attack, and thus can only be used to confuse the enemy. It is mainly used in combination with other Ninjutsu. These clones can be easily distinguished by opponents with Doujutsu, but even opponents with normals eyes can tell tell it apart from the original if they are observant, as the clone does not have a shadow and will not disrupt the area around them with their movement. As soon as this clone comes in contact with an opponent or gets attacked, it will disperse.

Note: The clone's movement speed is equal to the user's. Bunshin cannot mold Chakra to perform jutsu, nor can they physically harm an opponent.




Kakuremino no Jutsu (Cloak of Invisibility Technique)
Rank: E
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra: Miniscule [cast + sustain]

Kakuremino no Jutsu is an Academy Ninjutsu technique that allows the user to take a cloak or a piece of cloth and infuse it with their Chakra, allowing them to blend into the background. This creates an optical illusion where the user is basically invisible to the naked eye.

Note: No other techniques can be used while disguised.


Kinobori no Waza (Act of Tree Climbing)
Rank: E
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra: Miniscule [cast + sustain]

Kinobori no Waza is an Academy Ninjtusu technique. By focusing a small amount of Chakra to the bottom of their feet, the user can climb a tree (or other vertical wall) without utilizing their hands. This technique requires a small amount of chakra control: if the stream of Chakra is too weak, the user will loose their footing; if too strong, the user will be pushed away from the surface.



Suimen Hokou no Waza (Act of Water Surface Walking)
Rank: E
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: -
Chakra: Miniscule [cast + sustain]

Suimen Hokou no Waza is an Academy Ninjutsu technique, and is a variant of Kinobori no Waza. By emitting a constant stream of Chakra from the bottom of their feet and using this repelling force, the user is able to walk across the water's surface. This technique is vastly more difficult than its counterpart because the amount of Chakra that needs to be focused changes constantly, but it helps to build Chakra control in the user. After much practice, it is even possible to 'skate' across the water's surface instead of just walking or running.

Note: The user must know Kinobori no Waza in order to use this technique. 


Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)

Rank: D

Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)

Type: Supplementary

Handseals: -

Chakra Consumption: Miniscule



Shunshin no Jutsu is a basic Ninjutsu technique used across the shinobi world by all, ranging from the most basic shinobi to the legends of lore. Considered a high-speed movement technique - to an observer caught in the optical illusion, it appears as if the user has teleported. This allows the user to escape or attack suddenly, should they need to. However, while a high-speed movement, if used in broad daylight, one will still be quite visible and as such, easier to be defended against. In order to achieve maximum effect, the user must combine it with a distraction.



Note: Despite popular belief, this is not an ability that allows an individual to teleport, or even move incomprehensibly fast. It simply combines high mobility with some disruption of visibility to conceal those movements. That in mind, if you can conceal your movement, it is common for this technique to allow very long-distance dashes before enemies may notice you.

{Stroke of Battle}
Sumi Shourei no Jutsu (Ink Message Technique)
Rank: D
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 1
Chakra Consumption: Miniscule

Instead of using their beasts for combat, Sumi clan members can ‘encode’ a message, map, or note inside of one of their creatures and send them away from their current position with the objective of passing on the information at a rendezvous point where it can be picked up.

Note: Single hand seal is formed after writing message. They are limited to traveling within the same country the user is presently in.





Sumi Shimi no Jutsu (ink Staining Technique)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 1
Chakra Consumption: Low

After spilling ink on an opponent, the user forms a single hand seal, causing the ink to temporarily stain an object. Because it contains the users unique chakra signature, other shinobi cannot duplicate the stain even through cloning techniques. This allows the user to mark certain objects and distinguish them from others. Likewise, it also gives a sensor ninja something to target specifically (for shinobi who can erase their own personal signatures and turn invisible).

Note: This ink remains in play for the duration of the thread.



Sumi Bunshin no Jutsu (Ink Clone Technique)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 3
Chakra Consumption: Mid per clone

Sumi Bunshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu that utilizes ink. After performing the necessary hand seals, the user is able to create a highly durable clone composed of ink. Unlike its clone counterparts, the ink clone has actual mass and substance, thus making it hard to see through. The clone will revert to ink if either it is struck or the user is rendered unconscious.

Note: This clone must stay within 50 meters of the user. Despite its extended range, these clones must be created within 5 meters of the user. Each clone has a chakra pool equal to one High amount. These clones can only utilize Sumi techniques and basic chakra techniques such as wall climbing and water walking.




Sumi Gasumi no Jutsu (Ink Haze Technique)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 1
Chakra Consumption: Miniscule

Sumi Gasumi no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu that utilizes ink. After performing the necessary hand seals, the user is able to surround themselves with ink, using it to conceal them while they escape. This technique is very useful when used with Shunshin no Jutsu.
