Name: Body Flicker Technique
   Rank: D
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Element: N/a
   Range: Up to 50 meters of your original position
   Duration: 1 Post
   Hand Seals/Charge up: Ram
   Description: The Body Flicker Technique is a high-speed movement technique, allowing a ninja to move short to long distances at an almost untraceable speed. To an observer, it appears as if the user has teleported. A puff of smoke is occasionally used to disguise the user's movements. It is accomplished by using chakra to temporarily vitalise the body and move at extreme speeds. The amount of chakra required depends on the overall distance and elevation between the user and the intended destination. (May not attack immediately after or during its use. This applies to all techniques akin to this jutsu.)

   Name: Body Replacement Technique
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Contact
   Duration: 1 Post
   Hand Seals/Charge up: Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog → Snake
   Description: With this technique, users replace their own body with some other object, generally with a block of wood, 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 replacement for an added surprise. It's a basic ninjutsu even taught at the Academy, but it's a useful art that can be applied in variety of situations.

   Name: Cloak of Invisibility Technique
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Self
   Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [E-5]
   Hand Seals/Charge up: None
   Description: This technique allows a ninja to take a cloak or a piece of cloth to blend into an object, making them invisible.

   Name: Clone Technique
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Clone can travel up to 10m
   Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [E-5]
   Hand Seals/Charge up: Ram → Snake → Tiger
   Description: A ninjutsu that creates an intangible copy of one's own body, without any substance. Since the clone itself doesn't have the ability to attack, and thus can only be used to confuse the enemy, it is mainly used in combination with other ninjutsu. It's a basic technique, but depending on one's ingenuity, it can be used effectively. The clones may not dissipate when they come into contact with something. These clones can be easily distinguished by persons with dōjutsu. A person with normal eyes can also distinguish the clones from the original, since the clones do not have shadows and will not disrupt the area around themselves with their movement (i.e. won't kick up dust, crush grass, etc.).

   Name: Rope Escape Technique
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Self
   Duration: 1 Post
   Hand Seals/Charge up: None
   Description: A basic technique taught at the Academy. It allows a ninja to free themselves if they have been tied up. How this is done is unknown.


   Name: Transformation Technique
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Self
   Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [E-5]
   Hand Seals/Charge up: Dog → Boar → Ram
   Description: Given all the missions ninja are assigned to - battle, intelligence gathering, diversions - this is a priceless ninjutsu. It is typically used to change into people other than oneself, but one also has the ability to change into animals, plants, and even inanimate objects like weapons. This gives this technique an abundance of uses. The transformation of a skilled shinobi will be exactly like the genuine article, so it will be impossible to tell the two apart. On the other hand, a transformation performed by an inexperienced person will have obvious discrepancies. It will be impossible to deceive anyone with it. This is one of the most basic ninjutsu, as such most shinobi know how to perform it. The transformation technique is considered to be among the more difficult E-ranked techniques, since it requires constant emission of chakra while mentally maintaining the form. On top of that, the user would be, most likely, interacting with the environment. This puts mental strain on an inexperienced ninja. Thus the best way to determine if it is indeed a transformation is to cause this strain upon the user; though this is of course not always successful.

   Name: Tree Climbing Practice
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Self
   Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [E-5]
   Hand Seals/Charge up: None
   Description: Tree Climbing Practice is a training method used to gain more skills with chakra control. This training involves focusing a fixed amount of chakra to the bottom of one's feet, and using that to climb a tree without using one's hands. If the stream of chakra is too weak, the user will lose their footing on the tree and fall off. If it is too strong, the user will be pushed away from the tree, causing the tree to break around the point of contact and the user will fall.

   Name: Water Surface Walking Practice
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Ninjutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Self
   Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [E-5]
   Hand Seals/Charge up: None
   Description: This training method is used to gain better chakra control. To do this, the user has to be emitting a constant stream of chakra from the bottom of their feet and using the repellent force to walk across the water's surface. This technique is more difficult to master than the Tree Climbing Practice, because the amount of chakra that needs to be emitted changes constantly. It has also been shown that one can use their chakra to "skate" across the water surface, like an ice skater, instead of just walking or running. It is noted, that shinobi reach a state where they stand on water without even noticing it or basically even trying.

   Name: Cliff Climbing Practice
   Rank: E-rank
   Type: Taijutsu
   Used For: Supplementary
   Element: None
   Range: Self
   Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [E-5]
   Hand Seals/Charge up: None
   Description: This is a training method which involves climbing a high or steep cliff using only one arm. It is meant to improve one's strength and discipline.

Name: Cherry Blossom Impact
Rank: C-rank
Type: Taijutsu
Used For: Offense
Element: None
Range: Contact
Duration: 1 Post
Hand Seals/Charge up: None
Description: While some may see it as "superhuman strength", this technique is actually an application of medical ninjutsu, that demands the ability to concentrate, along with minute chakra control. An immense amount of chakra is kneaded inside the body, and a moment later all of it it is gathered into the fist. That chakra is then released into the target, which does a great amount of damage. With the damage done dependent on the amount of chakra used, it is also possible for a skilled shinobi to amass it in their fingertip. When the ground is hit it is pulverized into minute pieces by the excess shock, which are then scattered like flower petals, giving rise to the name "Cherry Blossom Impact".

Name: Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique
Rank: D-rank
Type: Genjutsu
Used For: Supplementary
Element: None
Range: 10m
Duration: Until Broken
Hand Seals/Charge up: Snake → Rat
Description: This is a genjutsu that reveals the fears that dwell inside people's hearts. Everyone has an image of the one thing they wouldn't want to ever see. This genjutsu is a technique that draws forth such an image from within the heart and has one mistake it for reality. First, an imaginary circle of leaves will spin around and envelop the target, falling away shortly after. After a short period, the illusion will begin. This is to make the illusion more convincing, since the user will likely have moved before the illusion sets in. If the mental image is a gruesome one, the shock will be accordingly great.

Name: Mist Servant Technique
Rank: D-rank
Type: Genjutsu
Used For: Supplementary
Element: None
Range: 20m
Duration: Until Broken
Hand Seals/Charge up: None
Description: This genjutsu creates eerie black ninja illusions, which appear one by one from trees and rocks, and corner the enemy. Their movements are slow, but when attacked they multiply, and in this way they appear like ghosts inhabiting the mist. Kunai are added to this technique, by throwing them to match illusions movement, making them seem real. As the clones continue to multiply, the victim will eventually be worn down.

Name: Chakra Scalpel
Rank: C
Type: Ijutsu
Element: None
Range: Short
Duration: Upkeep of C-ranked chakra
Hand Seals/Charge up: Tiger → Horse → Rabbit → Rat → Dog
Description: This medical technique forms one's chakra into a small, sharp blade. This can then be used for highly accurate incisions necessary for surgeries and anatomical dissections. Unlike regular scalpels, the chakra scalpel can make cuts inside the body without actually creating an open wound, limiting the risks of an infection.
The chakra scalpel can also be used offensively, although it requires great precision to be effective. Because of this requirement, using the chakra scalpel offensively is highly unusual. In heated combat, even the greatest medical-nin won't be able to exert the precision needed to make fatal cuts, but it can still effectively cut muscle tissues and tendons, rendering the target immobile. Adding to the technique's blade like quality, it also appears to give the user an increased level of durability over their chakra clad hands.

   
       Name: Healing Technique
       Rank: B
       Type: Ijutsu
       Element: None
       Range: Short
       Duration: Up to 3 post
       Hand Seals/Charge up: None
       Description: The user gathers healing chakra into a white orb and moves it over injured areas. This jutsu is able to heal lesser wounds like minor cuts, bruises, burns and help circulate blood over an area (or help stop blood flow over an area).

Name: Wood Release Cutting Technique
Rank:  C
Type:  Ninjutsu
Element:  Wood
Range:  All ranges
Duration: Indefinite
Cooldown:  2 posts
Description: A versatile technique where the user can produce sharp wooden spikes from their body to either fashion short-range weapons akin to a makeshift sword, or else use them as long-range projectiles, where the branches' growth can be triggered remotely, skewering the enemy as a result.

Name: Wood Release: Smothering Binding Technique
Rank:  B
Type:  Ninjutsu
Element:  wood
Range: Short to Mid Range
Duration: Until Ended or Chakra ends
Cooldown:  Five posts
Description: By transforming their arm into a tree, the user can then create multiple branches which will rapidly grow around the target, immobilizing them.

Name: Wood Clone Technique
Rank:  B
Type:  Ninjutsu
Element:  Wood
Range:  Unlimited
Duration:  Until dispelled or run out of chakra
Cooldown:  1 post
Description:  A clone that is created by using chakra to alter the user's own cells into vegetation. The clones can be as simple in function as a wooden dummy for use in the Body Replacement Techniques or completely mobile and able to perform techniques. They have the ability to travel far from the user and are able to communicate with the original. Moreover, since the wood clone has the ability to merge with plants and trees, it is also great for reconnaissance missions.  By directly touching the wood clone with his hand, the user can absorb the information it gathered and change the shape of the clone. Unlike other clone techniques, the wood clone doesn't disappear when hit and takes the damage to a certain degree. These clones can also be dispelled like normal clones, however.
The tracking seeds.
If a wood clone is changed into a seed and ingested into the body or left on a target, it can be used as a transmission device of sorts. The user can use these to track their target as the seeds respond to their chakra only.


Name:  Wood Release Four Pillar House Technique
Rank:  B
Type:  Ninjutsu
Element:  Wood
Range:  Short Range
Duration: Until Ended
Cooldown:  One Topic
Description:  By sending chakra into the ground, the roots of the plants are converted into raw materials. This technique allows for a building to be constructed, by forcing accelerated growth. Just like with the Four Pillar Prison Technique, the size and shape of the building are taken from the user's imagination or memories. By placing tags around the house, the user creates a barrier, making it impossible for the enemy to detect it and allowing the user to "camp" in peace.


Name:  Wood Release Nativity of a Sea of Trees
Rank:  A
Type:  Ninjutsu
Element:  Wood
Range:  Short to Mid ranges
Duration: Indefinite
Cooldown:  One topic
Description: After forming the necessary seals, Yamato is able to turn an area into a vast forest in a matter of mere moments complete with trees and even grass growing out of any terrain he is on. This technique is very similar to Hashirama's signature technique though on a much smaller scale.


Name:  Wood Release:  Wood Dragon Technique
Rank:  A
Type:  Ninjutsu
Element:  Wood
Range:  All Ranges
Duration: Until ended or chakra runs out
Cooldown:One Topic
Description:  After performing the required hand seals, the user creates a gigantic wooden dragon from any surface, which is then directed to attack an intended target. Its shape closely resembles a Chinese dragon, though with a short trunk-like nose, having an elongated and serpentine body, which can be used to constrict larger opponents. It also has the ability to absorb a tailed beast's chakra once it is bound.

Name: Suiton: Mizuame Nabara - Water Release: Starch Syrup Capturing Field
Rank: C
Type: Nin
Element: Water
Range: 15m
Duration: Area Effect
Hand Seals/Charge up: Ram → Tiger
Description: The user spits out high-viscosity, chakra infused water, aimed at a surface of wide scope. This is a stream of sticky liquid which can be used to form an adhesive trap that can inhibit a person's mobility. One can effectively reduce their enemy's area of activity with this technique, and has the effect of being able to take complete control over the battlefield. The normal scope of this technique is normally just a few meters, but if prepared, it is also possible to make an entire pond of starch syrup. Being caught in the technique can be avoided by channeling chakra to one's feet allowing one to walk upon it uninhibited, beforehand.

Name:Suiton: Daibakufu no Jutsu - Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique
Rank:A
Type:Nin
Element:Water
Range: 25m
Duration: 1post
Hand Seals/Charge up:Tiger → Ox → Monkey → Rabbit → Ram → Boar → Ox → Horse → Monkey → Tiger → Dog → Tiger → Snake → Tiger → Ox → Monkey → Rabbit → Bird
Description:This technique extends water over a large scale, surges and rises up to several dozens of meters high. Then it streams down to the ground in one big cascade, much like a gigantic waterfall. In doing so, it resembles a huge wave, with tremendous power that can hollow out the ground. What remains after that technique's utilization is reminiscent of no less than the aftermath of a natural disaster. This is a considerably advanced ninjutsu, and activating this technique requires a fair amount of chakra.

Name: Earth Release: Underground Projection Fish Technique
Rank: C-rank
Type: Ninjutsu
Used For: Supplementary
Element: Earth Release
Range: Contact w/ the Ground
Duration: Lasting Jutsu Cost [C-15]
Hand Seals/Charge up: None
Description: This technique is used for sneaking and striking silently, like a fish underwater, and then suddenly appearing to the ground's surface. Furthermore, it's even more efficient when employed in a crowded area that, if the target notices something, can be overrun by the nearby masses, or with distractions like a Clone Technique to draw the enemy's attention.

Name: Earth Release: Rock Lodging Destruction
Rank: B-rank
Type: Ninjutsu
Used For: Offense
Element: Earth Release
Range: User must within 20m of a Cave/Building/House with targets inside
Duration: 1 Post
Hand Seals/Charge up: Tiger → Rat → Snake
Description: This technique causes a cave-in by destroying the equilibrium that holds the cave together. Just removing a single vital stone throws off the balance of the cave, making it unexpectedly fragile and causing a domino effect that destroys the entire cave. The shinobi from Iwagakure use this technique as part of their pride tactic, luring several enemies into a cave to kill them all at once.
