Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name of weapon: Kakera (splinter)
Your Rank: Accademy Genin Chunin
Who owns the weapon: Quen Izachi
Where it was found/Who made it: Quen made it. His father taught him how.
Users Class: Weapon
The Range of the weapon: Generaly short to mid-range. It channels chakra, so technically its potential is limitless. As the stages progress, it gains range exponentialy.
Weakness: It's made of wood, so under a direct attack when unprotected by chakra, it will break or shatter easily. When it grows other portions, if they are disconected, they cannot maintain chakra and become unprotected.
Description: Kakera is a wooden sword hand carved by Quen. It is the wood immitation of a Samuri's katana. It matches a katana almost perfectly. Quen uses it to channel his chakra. His father taught him the teqnique. He taught him how to make it, weild it, and use his chakra with it. The chakra moves easily along the grain of the wood. It's not indestructable, but it becomes harder to break the more chakra it has. He can make another, but it takes a great ammount of time and finding wood that matches the exact specifications is tiresome. Carving it perfectly takes even longer. He prefers to keep the one he has in one piece. Damaging the sword does not disrupt chakra flow. The chakra leaves trails that can be followed over gaps in the sword. It just becomes more difficult.

Stage 1 sad Accademy) Chakra makes it hard and sharp.
Stage 2 sad Genin) It grows a wood shuriken (or several shurikens) connected by a chain. The chakra surrounding the sword and the shuriken(s) is extended, increasing the range slightly and the power and cutting ability greatly. The chain can be extended with chakra and seperate shurikens not connected can be grown at varrying sizes for projectiles. They an be connected as an option to maintain chakra protection. The connecting chain of vines is not protected and can be severed, cutting off the chakra flow to the shurkens.
Stage 3 sad Chunin) The blade is thrust into the ground. It can then grow underground roots that can resurface to be used by the weilder as weapons or tools. The roots are protected by chakra. They can grow leaves that convert sunlight into chakra. Parts of the roots can be infused with chakra to make mines. The user cannot release the blade or remove it from the ground when using this technique. The roots can be disconected at will, but they will then loose their chakra. They cannot be ungrown.
Stage 4 sad Jonin) The blade grows larger and encases the user in wooden armor similar to a samurai's. The blade and armor are enhanced by chakra and can be manipulated to grow into whatever forms the user wishes. The user cannot manipulate wood not grown from the blade and if the forms are disconnected, they only maintain chakra for a short ammount of time.
Stage 5 sad Sanin) The blade shatters and the handle directs most of the user's chakra in a tree shaped blade. The chakra does deteriorate over time, but any chakra still remaining when the user stops the technique withdraws back into the user's body. Through the blade, the chakra can be manipulated in any way (slicing, smashing, defence, ect.). It has no physical form or color and can only be seen or sensed by those with a kekai genkai or object that allows them to do so. The blade can be reassembled when the jutsu is undone, but is then unusable for a few hours. (15 posts)

IMPORTANT: All jutsu are perfomed using seals grown into the inner grain of the wood. To unlock the stages, you must use the style known as Stricken. The blades are only made by the Izachi samurai. Each jutsu counts as one technique each at the assigned level according to their stage.
Rp Sample:
Quen raised his sword to block. The wild looking genin swung his kunai hard at the sword. It dug deep into the wood. The reckless ninja proceeded with a knee to Quen's stomach. Quen doubled over. The ninja freed his kunai from the wood and swung at Quen's thoat. In a panick, Quen ducked. The competitive Genin brought the Kunai downward, ensuring Quen's doom. Quen raised his sword. The ninja cracked a smile. Hopeless, he thought as he swung. The Kunai collided with the wooden blade. It hit with a clang of metal on solid. The ninja looked down in shock. The blade was buzzing with chakra. "Take this!" Quen bellowed. In one fluid movement, he flung the kunai out of the ninja's hand and swept his opponent's legs out from under him. Quen followed with a downward strike at his chest. With a roar, he poured as much spare chakra as he could into the sword. The ememy's eyes widened with terror. The blade struck with a force that left a crater below the defeated genin. Quen smiled wearily. He fell to his knees in exhaustion. I'll get strong enough.... I swear it.

((This RP provides an exception to the 1 move= 1 jutsu. If enhanced, it will take twice the original jutsu.))

Death Note

Gaia Name: astrenose
RPC Name: Quen Izachi
Rank: Genin
Village: Takigakure
Would you like to Donate your Style: Yes, but only within Kusagakure



Picture:
History: This style has been passed down through generations of Samurai bearing the name Izachi.
Style Requirements: Must weild a Wooden blade made by the Izachi Samurai
Movement Description: This style is based on using what your opponent doesn't see or pay attention to to make an opening. The sudden switch in method disturbs the rhythm of battle making it more likely that your opponent will be thrown off guard and leave an opening.

Stage 1

Stage Description: This stage is aquired at Accademy level soon after you are presented with a Wooden blade.
Stage Powers: At this point, they can succesfully weild the blade at either position and can use their chakra to make the surface solid and give the blade an edge.
Stage Training: The shinobi must first learn to weild the blade and adhere to the style. They must copy the master's movements and practice them often. (5 to begin using, 10 to completely master) Second, they practice throwing a steel katana at a target that gets further every time. When they can hit its bullseye from a distance, this stage is complete. (5 posts to use, 10 posts to master) Next, the shinobi must practice running chakra through scrap pieces of wood and strike them to see if it leaves a mark in the wood. If it does not, the third stage of training is complete. (4 posts) Next, they must run their chakra through their wooden blade and practice giving the chakra an edge by striking a dummy. When they can cut clean through it, the final stage is complete. (4 posts)

Switch:The shinobi can quickly switch the blade from a foward facing position to a reverse position to transition styles from sweeping to lunging and slicing.
Toss: Quen's family is notorious for the ability to throw a katana long distances with incredible accuracy.
Wooden Steel: By running chakra through their wooden blade, the shinobi can both give it a solid surface that is almost like steel and protects the wood from dammage, and give it a sharp edge in battle.

Stage 2

Stage Description: Aquired at Genin Level. (each level after stage 1 is self trained with instructions written by the previous master.) The blade grows a wooden shuriken attatched to the sword by a chain of wood and vines. The shuriken and blade are empowered with chakra. The chain is not.
Stage Training:
The shinobi must run chakra through the blade and through the handle. The handle contains several seals that are unlocked at certain chakra levels. At genin level, the seal activated directs the chakra down the handle and grows a shuriken. The blade does most of the work. (3 posts) Next, they must learn to extend the extent of their chakra around both the blade and the shuriken. This will both increase the cutting power and give the blades greater range. (3 posts) Finally, they must learn to use both the shuriken and the katana in unison. This comes back to the switching between methods. It's often difficult to defend against. (5 to use, 10 to master)
Stage Powers:Both the blade and the shuriken are surrounded by an extended chakra blade. The chain, however, is unprotected. If severed, the shuriken will become nothing but wood. It can be easily regrown. The shinobi is also trained to use both weapons in both seperate techniques and as a single weapon.


Daburuburēdo: The shinobi uses a style that uses both the katana and the shuriken in unison by swinging the chain, throwing the shuriken, hooking the chain with their foot or katana or neck or waist or leg or arm, and using the katana as they would in stage 1. They combine the two styles to create one that is unique and difficult to defend against.
Edge: The ability to extend the cutting edge of a blade using chakra. This slightly increases range and greatly increases power.
Sprout: This is the ability to sprout several shurikens with or without chains from the sword.

Stage 3

Stage Description: Aquired at Chunin Level. This increases the range, power, multitude, and stealth of the weapon. The weakness is severe lack of mobility.
Stage Powers: The blade, when embeded in the soil, sprouts thick roots that are running with chakra. They can be directed through the soil anywhere the weilder wishes. They can be brought up as spikes or used to entrap someone. The sword can break from the roots when the weilder wishes it to, but then the roots will loose their chakra source and simply become solid wood.
Stage Training: The shinobi runs chakra through the handle at Chunin level. This activates the seal which reacts to the chakra and the soil combined. They start out with eyes closed to feel out where the unseen roots are headed. (3 posts) They then begin short and midrange target practice using dummies. (4 posts) Next, they begin using it in a long range standpoint. (5 posts) Next, they target certain points in the roots and infuse chakra to make mines. They then test the mine by maintaining it for 5 minutes and then testing it with a kunai. (3 posts for 1 bomb, 5 posts for 10 bombs, 10 posts for 30 bombs.) They then begin to work on puppets. They form basic shapes using the roots and control them with chakra. The puppets are protected by chakra, but the vines connecting them to the weilder are not. (10 posts) Finally, they begin to bring roots to the surface and have them grow leaves that convert sunlight into chakra. (4 posts)


Cacoon: The vines create a cacoon either to trap an opponent or protect the weilder.
Cage: Larger than the cacoon, this is souly used for entrapment.
Ropes: Thick roots that can be used to bind, connect, or hold things.
Spikes: The roots come up from the ground with sharp points.
Circle: The roots use spikes to defend the weilder.
Mines: Targeted areas in the roots are infused with chakra and made sensitive to pressure. If pressure from the soil presses on that point, it will explode violently.
Puppet: The roots form creatures or warriors connected by vines through the ground to the weilder. The weilder can control them.
Photosynthesis: The roots come up from the soil and sprout leaves. The leaves convert solar energy into chakra and is fed back to the user.

Stage 4

Stage Description: This stage is aquired at Jonin level. It unleashes a much greater power that enhances nearly all walks of battle. It's not invincible, but it doesn't have a hindering weakness either.
Stage Powers: This stage gives the user armor, increases the size of the blade, and greatly increases the manipulation capabilities of the weilder in regards to the sword and what grows from it.
Stage Training: It is for this reason that the wooden blade which is stolen cannot unlock its full potential. By now, the sword has become accustomed to the user's chakra. It is in every sense a part of the weilder. The user must, while weilding the sword, throw themselves from the top of a cliff without putting any chakra into the sword. The sword, being connected, will sense the oncoming danger, and, if the weilder has a jonin chakra level, the penultimate seal within the handle of the blade will draw from the user's chakra of its own acord and activate. The armor will encase the user, the sword will obtain a new and larger form, and the sword will use the wood manipulation it now posseses to stop or cushion the fall. If the user tries this before they are ready, the fall will surely kill them. (1 post)


Wooden Warrior: The sword is encased in wood grown from the handle guard, giving it a larger form. Wood will also grow from the handle and encase the user in armor similar to that of a samurai. Both are protected and enhanced by chakra.
Manipulation: The weilder can grow forms from the armor and the sword. Once again, if detatched, these lose their chakra protection. The exception is with projectiles that maintain the chakra while airborne. They lose it shortly after impact. They can also manipulate the sword and armor themselves. (example: greatly extend the gauntlet portion of armor and expand its size to grab an opponent or a boulder, ect.) The only limit to the wood manipulation is that they cannot manipulate wood not grown from the sword and they cannot ungrow something. If they extend their blade and then see that they need a short range weapon, they may break off the extension using chakra. This doesn't require physical movement, just chakra manipulation.

Stage 5

Stage description: Aquired at the Kage, Sanin, or S ranked level. (pretty sure they're all the same.) This is the sword's most powerful form. It has now transitioned completely from physical movements to chakra technique.
Stage powers: The weilder can now harness the complete power of their own chakra as apposed to portions of it.
Stage training: The user must meditate for a long period of time, flowing their chakra through seeds. This increases their knowlege on the transfering of chakra from one vessel to another. When 100 seeds have sprouted, they have the capability to unlock the final seal within the blade (not the handle, the blade). (35 posts)


Relenquish: When the final seal is activated, the blade shatters. Only the handle remains. The handle acts as a vessel to direct all of the user's chakra. It allows the user to branch their chakra as a whole. The chakra has no color or visible form. It can be used to crush, hit, slice, ect. It is pure energy and has nearly limitless capabilities. At kage level, the chakra branches out far. If it had a physical form, it could be described as a large tree with many moving branches. The suprise factor is taken away if the opponent can sense chakra by kekai genkai or other means.

Name of weapon: Fiend Gauntlet
Your Rank: Genin
Who owns the weapon: Quen Izachi
Where it was found/Who made it: The weapon was made when a sanin highly versed in doton techniques attempted to take on the one tailed Biju single handedly. He'd coated himself in dense earthen armour, but his arm had been caught in the Biju's mouth. The armour was fused with the Biju's chakra. When he pulled it out, that part of the armour had been transformed into living earth. It was white with a single red eye in the center of the back of the hand and black, rectangular markings. It immediately began to feed on the sanin's chakra. The sanin was drained and died. The gauntlet detached, grew crude limbs, and ran off. About a decade later, it was found in the woods behind the Izachi Dojo by Quen's great grandfather. He used the wooden blade techniques to defeat and ultimately tame the gauntlet. It became the family's greatest weapon.
Users Class: Weapons Class
The Range of the weapon: Short/Medium/Long
Weakness: Being comprised entirely of Doton energy, it is extremely vulnerable to Raiton techniques. The manifestations have a set ammount of chakra. If the user attempts to overload a manifestation with chakra, the manifestation will disintegrate.
Description: Made of white, clay-like earth. It has one red eye in the center of the back of the hand and black rectangles. When the user gives the gauntlet chakra, the gauntlet can multiply at the cellular level. It can either grow in size or split off into manifestations. These manifestations have a set ammount of chakra. Thus, if they attack, the chakra used to animate them (keep them alive) is expended and the manifestation essentially dies. Each manifestation can attack once and only with Doton techniques. Each manifestation can be empowered, but can only hold 3 times as much chakra as a normal manifestation before it disintegrates. If the manifestation is larger, it holds more chakra and thus can attack more times. When a manifestation dies, the red eye crumbles and only the white earthen husk remains. This is because the sacrificed chakra is stored in the red eye. The size of a manifestation depends on the chakra of the user. Each manifestation counts as one technique of its respective level. An empowered manifestation will take the multiplied power. (2x=2 techniques, 3x=3 techniques) The sizes are listed below.
Genin: Small manifestaton (rat, mole, bat, humming bird, ect.
Chunin: Medium manifestation (large gauntlet-10x size, dog, hawk, ect.)
Jounin: Large manifestation (Fiend clone, horse, dragon, ect.)
S-ranked: Enormous manifestation (Giant, multiple manifestations, ect.)
Rp Sample: Quen dodged the three shuriken and pointed the palm of the gauntlet at the enemy. 3 humming bird sized manifestations errupted from the gauntlet with pointed beaks and rocketed towards the shinobi. He dodged two, but was stabbed in the leg by the third. It went limp and the red eye disintegrated. Not wanting to give his enemy time to recover, Quen surged his chakra through the gauntlet and 3 one eyed dogs sprang from its surface. The ran snarling at the shinobi, but he was ready this time. He threw down a smoke bomb and dispatched the three fiends. He then rushed Quen, katana drawn. Quen quickly made a fiend clone to block the attack. The blade sunk into the soft surface, but the clone merely smiled wide, its mouth full of pointed teeth, its one red eye mocking the shinobi. It opened its mouth and a tongue shot out and wrapped around the enemy's throat. The shinobi quickly withdrew his blade before decapitating the manifestation. The red eye that held the chakra could no longer communicate with the body and the clone fell in a heap. Quen gritted his teeth. It was time to end this. Pouring all his spare chakra into the gauntlet, the surface began to bubble, the eye bulged, and the rectangles writhed. White earth began to errupt from the gauntlet. In a matter of seconds, Quen was sitting atop a one eyed giant. The shinobi could only scream in terror as the giant lifted its foot to crush him.

Oath is bellow in white
Oh wise and powerful Beth, I beseech thee for thine approval. I hath reviewed the rules of the customs, and vow never to use this weapon beyond it's limits and never to god-mod with this weapon. Furthermore, if I should ever break this oath, I shall relinquish my weapon to thee, the one true approver.
