Name: Makai Clan
Founder: N/A
Location: Scattered - Near Extinct

History: The Makai clan started off as a very simple, almost humble, clan of puppeteers. Many generations ago, they were a tight family located in the Land of Grass, using their puppets for both agricultural and defensive means. They were well known for what they did, and not many were so bold as the try to get past them. In general, they were a kind folk though. They spent a lot of time out in the sun, working in the fields and on their puppets, giving them a general tan skin color that many people recognized them with. For years this is how the clan was, and there was nothing special about them whatsoever, they simply had a knack for puppetry. One day, however, a young boy from the clan was noticed to have a doujutsu. He could change his eyes to a dark green, with black patterns all throughout as though his pupil had exploded within it. The boy didn't even notice the difference at first, until he activated his doujutsu for fun upon seeing a dead animal that had been killed nearby. He was surprised to see green whisps of air, like smoke almost, swirling around the dead body.

He tried to point this out to the other clan members, but they were unable to see it. So, with the ability to see this green smoke swirling off of anything dead, he grew up and became a skilled puppeteer just like any other. He reached the age of about twenty ignoring his doujutsu for the most part, until he got curious one day. He looked at a dead dear one day, and of course the green smoke coming from its body. He focused on the smoke, and found that he could manipulate it, bring it off the dear and play with it in the air. It almost seemed like he could wrap it around things and manipulate them, but for the most part, this was not so. Thinking quickly, he took out one of his puppets and set it beside him, and manipulated the smoke like chakra strings, and to his pleasure, he learned that he could control the puppet as such, and of course, doing such did not require chakra, or so he later discovered, not as much. Controlling the smoke actually required chakra, but much less than using conventional chakra strings. He later discovered that it also allowed him to control many puppets with an increased range, giving him the appearance of using stringless puppets.

He returned to his clan and showed them what he could do, what he had learned. They were a little skeptical until, of course, he showed them proof. They were impressed at first, but then one man in particular pointed out the requirement of dead things in order to use this technique. He was the clan elder, and he said this was a tradeoff that was not acceptable, and its practice should not be done. To rely on the technique would require death of other objects, something he believed they could not do. The boy humbly accepted this, and lived the rest of his days without experimenting with the doujutsu, but rather, kept it secret. He eventually got married and had a son, who was also born with the doujutsu. By this time, the elder had died, and so did the original boy, and his son would go on to learn everything his father did. He made his way to the village elder position with dark intentions. Upon reaching the position, he revealed his doujutsu, and his two children which also had the doujutsu. He proclaimed that use of the technique was a gift given to them by the gods, and encouraged its use. Under his eye, he saw many branches of the clan begin to bear children with the doujutsu, and his transformation of the clan was coming into focus.

Many years later, the son had long since been dead, and the doujutsu was no longer a thing of "nobility" in the clan, but rather, the norm. As was its practice, of manipulating puppets "without strings". They never revealed their secrets of using the hidden smoke, providing the illusion to the rest of the world that they were capable of manipulating thousands of puppets without strings, making them feared and yet revered. There were also rumors that the clan was obsessed with death, for they were always carrying around dead animals and such, or killing animals that passed by in the middle of fights. It looked as though they drew their power from this death, so there were speculations about the whole ordeal, but for the most part, none of this was really investigated, and the clan was left to its own devices. In this generation, however, there was a girl who would unlock a further potential of the clan, much like the original boy from years ago. She had an encounter very similar to him, and found a dead animal, and of course, the green smoke that it gave off. She was a little more twisted than the other clan members, and manipulated the green smoke directly back into the dead deer, and found that she made it raise. It stood up and began to lumber around, to her command, before suddenly disintegrating into a bare skeleton, which she still controlled.

Much like before, she presented her findings to the rest of the clan, only this time, they accepted her ideals and the technique with enthusiasm. Many more years passed, and the art of raising the dead had been crafted into a system. It had been discovered that it was possible to raise the dead, any dead, but it was impossible to keep their shape. Upon being hit a single time, the skin would melt off, leaving nothing but the skeleton, which the member continued to control like a regular puppet. It was realized that the technique was really all about manipulating skeletons, that was the base. At first, the clan was known as necromancers of sort who had the ability to call skeletons from the ground, because this was all they did. They made a massive graveyard filled with millions of dead bodies, both the deceased of the clan, and various other people found and sometimes killed around the world. They created a jutsu that summoned 100 of these skeletons into the ground under them, where they utilized the green smoke, eventually named Undeath Essence, that still lingered on each and every skeleton. They strictly used just these skeletons quite the same way they did puppets, but were able to create jutsu as well. They learned to make the skeletons explode, melt together to make a shield against attacks, to move through the ground as though it was water, things like this. They decided that this summoning jutsu was much more practical than waiting for an ally or enemy to fall in battle and raising them, because upon death, their body would only count as a single skeleton, for they could not utilize the skills they had in life.

Eventually, however, the clan was expanded on even more. A group of members were playing around with the concepts of the essence, and they got curious. They took the essence of two skeletons, and combined it together, along with the skeletons. What happened was astounding, as a new creature was formed. There were three members in this group, and each one did the exact same thing, but the outcome was different for each. One had created what looked like a dog, only its skin was rotten and bones were showing, but its eyes were glowing, and it looked feral. Another had created what looked like a wasp, only it was completely skeletal, flying in the air without wings. The last had created what looked like a larger skeleton, with pieces of rotted flesh here and there, wielding a blade and wearing a helmet. The members were astounded, and showed the rest of the clan, who proceeded to do the same. They all discovered that by combining different amounts of skeletons, different things would be created. This was the last phase of advancement for the clan.

Over the years, the clan's original reputation had fallen, and were instead known as people obsessed with death and the manipulation of it thereof. They were feared, but respected. They had also scattered at this point, and were not found in any one place due to discrimination, but they all kept in touch, which is how advancements in the doujutsu had been created. Not only that, but exposing themselves to the essence for so long had changed their genetics, and therefor their standard appearance. Most members are depicted of having extremely pale skin, or almost stone gray skin, while having either bright white or black hair, further reinforcing the idea of necromancers to the rest of the world. Eventually, the world was fed up with the clan and what they did, and many villages around the world ordered their eradication, and many were killed off, and only few were able to escape. Eventually, the clan was forgotten, and stragglers stayed under the radar. It had gotten to the point where even the appearance of the doujutsu in the family was rare, because the clan members had mated with so many others, the bloodline was rare, almost lost. It would be a very rare thing indeed for someone to be born with the doujutsu, and therefor considered a real member of the clan.
Special Info: Wielders of the Amatsugan Doujutsu.

Requirements: Must be born with Doujutsu to be considered clan member. Must have puppetry as Dominant Skill.

Description:

Spoiler:

The Makai clan have been, in the past, dubbed as necromancers of sort, which is a loose term to relate to them. The Makai clan is a clan of puppeteers, but through the use of their jutsu, have gained the ability to manipulate the dead like puppets. The Amatsugan allows them to see a hidden material known to them as Undeath Essence, which is produced by any dead organism, even things such as vegetation. This essence is their resource, and they manipulate the essence in a way similar to chakra strings to animate dead organisms. To them, the essence can be seen swirling around the corpse being manipulated, moving it much like a puppet, but anyone else will see absolutely nothing, giving the appearance of the corpses having a life of their own. Unlike regular puppeteers, many corpses can be manipulated at once, and they do not require the member to make physical movements to control them, but instead need only think what they want each corpse to do, much like giving orders. In essence, the corpses work similarly to clones, only they do not dissipate on contact, nor can they use jutsu. A member can manipulate any dead humanoid or animal, but no matter what they were in life, they are all the same in death. If a high ranking shinobi were to die and a clan member were to manipulate his dead body, he would not have access to his abilities in life, and instead, would control it like a basic skeleton. Not only that, but dead organisms are required to use the technique to begin with, as that is the only place the essence comes from. For these reasons, members have created a jutsu that summons 100 skeletons beneath the ground, each skeleton having just enough essence for it to be controlled. This is normally where members will get their skeletons to use in manipulation and jutsu, as waiting for others to die around them is simply impractical. Using a skeleton that has been dead for years is the same as using a fresh A rank corpse that just died two minutes ago.

The Amatsugan is the doujutsu of the Makai clan. Upon activation, the user's eye will become a bright, striking green, allowing it to almost glow even in the darkest light. The Doujutsu has only one stage, because at its base, it only does one thing. It allows the user to see something known as Undeath Essence, a green smoke like substance given off by any dead organism, be it plants, animals, or human beings. This is essentially all the Doujutsu itself does. Manipulation of the essence is something that requires advanced puppetry skills, chakra control, mixed in with the blood of the clan for amplification. Technically speaking, manipulation of the essence is possible by any puppeteer if they understand that it is there, and how to wield it, however doing such would be extremely difficult. Seeing the essence with the Amatsugan makes it much easier to do this, as they can see the essence. Members of the clan have in their blood an instinctual, genetic understanding of the essence, so they can manipulate it with ease after seeing that it is there. Using the essence to manipulate a corpse is a secret art known only to the Makai clan. This means that, while it is possible that any puppeteer could control skeletons, doing such without the Amatsugan would be near impossible. Obtaining the Amatsugan makes it easier for an outsider to use the clan techniques, however they would have to also obtain a deep understanding of the essence that clan members are simply born with. This makes it extremely difficult for people to replicate the arts of the clan, even if they steal the Doujutsu.

The skeleton is the base of the clan's techniques. Manipulating Undeath Essence to animate a corpse is a universal thing. Every dead human or animal body is considered exactly the same. It doesn't matter who the person or animal was in life, or how long they have been dead. An S rank Sannin who died two minutes ago is worth exactly the same as a weak peasant who died hundreds of years ago. To animate the corpse of the S rank Sannin would give the appearance of taking control of it, but the animator will have absolutely no access to the abilities it had in life. It would simply have the appearance of the one who just died. Animating the corpse would in no way be a resurrection. Every skeleton and animated corpse can do exactly the same things. They move at speed equal to the rank of the animator, can dig through the ground like a mole with the aid of the animator (jutsu), and attack with strength equal to a rank below the animator. Skeletons cannot perform jutsu themselves, but instead, are used in jutsu done by the animator. They can wield weapons, but if they are chakra conductive or any such thing, they cannot access this attribute of the weapon. Each skeleton is also sturdy, as hard as concrete, and can reassemble itself after being shattered apart. The only way to put a skeleton down for good is to pierce its skull, or completely obliterate it. The skeleton is, again, the very base of the clan technique, and is the best way to understand how it works. They are usually summoned into an area in packs of one hundred, and each one gives off just enough Undeath Essence to be manipulated by itself. Almost every technique used by the clan starts with using the Undeath Essence of a skeleton to manipulate it, as most justu and such are used on already animated skeletons. The amount of skeletons a user can manipulate at one time depends on the rank of the user.
D - 2 Skeletons
C - 16 Skeletons
B - 32 Skeletons
A - 49 Skeletons
S - 70 Skeletons

Over the years, members of the clan have become more and more...squishy. After becoming capable of basically raising an army of the dead to fight on their behalf, clan members simply did not have to do much physically. They used skeletons for almost everything, like servants. This continued for so many generations that it eventually became genetic for them to have below average human traits. Their bodies are simply not accustomed to taking any kind of hit, nor are they used to having to do anything strenuous, meaning they must work harder to be as fast, strong, and fit as the regular human being. They generally bruise easy, their bones are more fragile, and are more prone to sickness. It is possible for clan members to overcome this, but they must work extremely hard to do so. In other words, if they lived like regular human beings without trying to improve themselves, they would be considered slower, weaker, and squishier than the average human being. This makes them very vulnerable to attack, which is why they hide behind defenses of skeletons and try not to get hit by anything. This also means, however, that they are born with naturally excellent chakra control and evasion.

The nature of the clan's techniques allows for more advanced "creatures" to be created. As stated before, the skeleton is the base of the clan's technique. It is very much possible for other forms of "undead creatures" to be created from these skeletons. It is possible to combine the Undeath Essence of two or more skeletons together, while at the same time sacrificing the skeletons, to create another creature. The creature that is created is different for each clan member, as it is almost like a personality profile. The created creatures can scale in rank anywhere from C to S rank, as these are the advanced "infantry" of the clan member's "army". These creatures can have advanced abilities that the regular skeletons do not, and are often more sturdy and capable than the regular skeletons. Naturally, the more skeletons consumed to make a single creation, the higher the rank of the creation is. In most cases, the animator and the creature can come together to do something special that neither alone can do. All of these creatures are considered custom jutsu and are to be made by each member of the clan if they want them. The amount of skeletons required to create one creature of each rank and how many skeletons one creature of each rank counts towards the skeleton total follows this guide:
C - 2-16 Skeletons ; 4 Skeletons
B - 17-32 Skeletons ; 8 Skeletons
A - 33-49 Skeletons ; 12 Skeletons
S - 50+ Skeletons ; 17 Skeletons

Members of the Makai clan is a family of puppeteers. In order to even be born with the Amatsugan, they must have a natural affinity for puppetry in their blood. This means that their dominant skill spec MUST be puppetry. Due to constant involvement with Undeath Essence and manipulating the dead in the clan's history, a character's recessive skill spec is something they themselves cannot access. They can have knowledge of how this second spec works, but they cannot do anything with it. However, their recessive skill spec is not completely useless. Upon reaching B rank, they are able to incorporate their recessive skill spec into the combination creatures that they create. For example, if they have ninjutsu as a recessive, they can create a creature capable of shooting lightning bolts. Of course, this stays within the elements the user is also born with. If they have medical ninjutsu as a recessive, their creatures could be capable of healing living beings or wielding poison. If they have weaponry as a recessive, their creatures could be created with multiple weapons or even weapons with appendages. These kinds of creatures are capable of having a single "Jutsu" that is equal to their rank and corresponds with the recessive spec. Use of this jutsu uses up Undeath Essence rather than chakra, so the creature is only capable of performing it three times before destroying itself.

Undeath Essence is actually a resource that is capable of being manipulated on its own, and is capable of more than animating dead. It can be used directly as a weapon itself, and can be used in its own jutsu. This is something that only high ranking members of the clan, A rank at least, are capable of performing. Jutsu created by directly manipulating the essence usually creates effects that reflect the nature of the essence itself. It is used for drains, decay, the like. This is extremely advanced and only the most learned members of the clan know it is even possible to do such a thing, as the jutsu created from the essence can be extremely destructive. Only members with Ninjutsu as recessive are able to even think about using these jutsu, as it is extremely difficult, but useful. These jutsu require chakra within the body more so than any other jutsu, because both the Essence and chakra have to come together to mold the techniques.

This jutsu requires no hand signs, and targets a skeleton within the ground. The jutsu raises the skeleton like a regular, but the Essence spawns a bow in its hand and a quiver of twenty arrows on its back. The act of creating this bow increases the rank to D, as more chakra is used up in its creation. These skeletons have speed and strength two ranks below the user, but dexterity of equal rank. They are as hard as concrete, and therefor difficult to destroy, but they will not reassemble upon being shattered.

Description: This is the act of manipulating Undeath Essence around a corpse to animate it broken down into a jutsu. This jutsu requires no hand signs, and targets any undead organism other than regular skeletons. This can be a corpse of a fallen shinobi, or an animal found dead or killed. Whatever is animated, it is considered one regular skeleton, and does not have access to whatever abilities it hand in life. However, this jutsu scales in rank. It is possible to animate anything that is dead, and the size of the animated corpse will determine the rank of the jutsu. This jutsu allows the user to animate anything from a small child corpse, to a gigantic skeleton of a deceased summon.

Name of Jutsu: Munashii Bouhatei (Lifeless Mole)
Rank: D-S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Puppetry

Description: The user will send a set number of his skeletons into the ground for various task or reasons. These task or reasons can range anywhere from a sneak attack to planting underground bombs. The skeletons can travel underground fairly quickly and inconspicuously and can reach their destination in a matter of one post given that their target isn't too far away. They can stay underground as long as the user desires. Rank depends on number of skeletons sent at once.

Name of Jutsu: Munashii Nejiro (Lifeless Stronghold)
Rank: A
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Puppetry
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: The user will manipulate 26 to 35 of his controlled skeletons to surround him or her in a defensive manner. Because of the sheer number and thickness of the bones, it will sheild the user from a number powerful (A,S Ranked) Jutsu, Weapons, and other Ninja. The way they can form this barrier can be either a wall or a dome. While their will be some holes in the defense due to the structure of the bones, what is able to get in will be so minimal that it won't make much difference for the user can easily side step something that would be that small. If worst comes to worst, the user can order the skeletons to pack together tighter in a specific area, covering what little openings there were. (Of course that would mean weakening the defensive strength in another part of the technique.)

Name of Jutsu: Munashii Bakuha (Lifeless Explosion)
Rank: C-S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Puppetry
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: This is a technique that is rather simple, but at the same time, highly effective. The user will get 1 to 16 of skeletons in the position that he thinks will be best and then proceeds to detonate them. One detonation is equal to one explosive note explosion. The more Skeletons the user explodes, the higher this Jutsu and the power of it goes up in Rank. The S Ranked version of this Jutsu is so powerful, that the user must be wary of his position when setting it off. Rank by skeletons detonated are as such:
C - 1-4 Skeletons
B - 5-8 Skeletons
A - 9-12 Skeletons
S - 13-16 Skeletons

Name of Jutsu: Munashii Henge (Lifeless Transformation)
Rank: C-S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Puppetry
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: The user will do a set of hand seals and take on the appearance of a skeleton. This makes it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to distinguish him among the many skeletons that he controls. A variation of this technique, albeit less used, is the user transforming a set number of his skeletons into identical copies of himself.

Name of Jutsu: Konbi Henge • Munashii Kyojin (Combination Transformation • Lifeless Giant)
Rank: S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Puppetry
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: Konbi Henge is a Ninjutsu technique that allows two ninja to transform themselves temporarily into another person or thing. While in the form, they can use the physical characteristics of the one they are impersonating. When it comes to Makai skeletons, the user will summon 45 of his skeletons to gather in one tight pack. After a few hand seals, all the skeletons will combine into one collosal skeleton that has been recorded to reach up to 25 feet. Due to all the skeletons becoming one, including all of the Calcium and other minerals, this mammoth's defenses are astonishing. If the user were to detonate this walking skyscraper (Which is possible) in the middle of a Village, the damage that would be done would be catastrophic.


Name of Jutsu: Ashi Paji (Unholy Purge)
Rank: A
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Ninjutsu
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: This is an advanced Makai ninjutsu that involves directly manipulating Undeath Essence. The user will take control of the essence of about 50 skeletons, bring it to them, and send it out in a wave of death. This wave will instantly kill any small organism such as vegetation or small animals and insects, leaving humans and trees unharmed. This simply kills off the landscape, so to speak, in order to produce a large deposit of Undeath Essence for them to use in other Makai ninjutsu. The 50 skeletons sacrificed to use this jutsu cannot be used, and simple dissipate either in the ground or on the surface, wherever they were.

Name of Jutsu: Chakra Cloud
Rank: A-S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Ninjutsu
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: This is an advanced Makai ninjutsu that involves directly manipulating Undeath Essence. The user will take control of a cloud of the essence, and charge it with their chakra. This causes the cloud to become visible to the naked eye, and the user can manipulate it freely. This cloud is capable of sapping chakra out of any living organism it touches, such as another shinobi. The size of the cloud will determine the amount of chakra it can absorb, and therefor the rank of the jutsu, as the cloud drains chakra equal to one jutsu use of equal rank. It will take a total of 2 posts for the cloud to reach capacity for an A rank use, and 3 for an S rank use. Once the cloud has reached its capacity of chakra, the next person to come into contact with the cloud will be replenished by the same amount of chakra, but they must remain in the cloud to get the full amount, taking the same amount of time to receive as it took to drain.

Name of Jutsu: Ankyo Ukiyo (Drain Life)
Rank: A-S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Ninjutsu
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: This is an advanced Makai ninjutsu that involves directly manipulating Undeath Essence. The user will take control of a small ball of the essence, and charge it with chakra. This causes the ball to become visible to the naked eye, and the user holds it in their hand. The ball will be thrown onto the enemy, and spread out across the touched body part, and become invisible to the naked eye again. The Essence will stay on the body part until the user activates the second stage of the jutsu. After performing a handsign, they will extend a hand towards the enemy, and a green stream of the essence will be seen going from the body part to the hand. Over the span of two minutes, a wound will be inflicted upon the body part in the enemy, and a wound equal to the one inflicted will be healed on the user. If the jutsu used is A rank, it will inflict/heal a C rank injury, and if the jutsu used is S, it will inflict/heal a B rank injury.

Name of Jutsu: Ashi Kasai (Unholy Fire)
Rank: A-S
Users: Makai Clan
Type of Jutsu:: Ninjutsu
Element Affinity: N/A
Description: This is an advanced Makai ninjutsu that involves directly manipulating Undeath Essence. The use will take control of a segment of the essence, and charge it with chakra. This causes the segment to become visible to the naked eye, as it takes the shape of fire. The jutsu has two stages, one for A rank, one for S. At A rank, the essence will take the shape of a small ball of green fire, usually held in the hand. This ball of fire can be thrown, and will catch whatever it hits on fire. This is not real fire however, but rather looks like fire. If the fire hits a person, it will simply catch the single body part on fire. This "fire" will cause cells to decay at an alarming rate, causing the body part or organism to decay as well. One use of this jutsu will cause the skin to die and rot, almost down to the bone. A second use will cause decay down to the bone, causing permanent damage. Three uses will cause the body part to decay entirely, ceasing to exist. At S rank, the character basically gains access to a larger supply of the fire, and can manipulate it around their body more freely. Rather than throwing, it will be whipped around, much like water, and only the parts of the body that are touched will burn, not an entire body part. It takes 2 posts for the affect of one application to do its total damage, as the "fire" will burn away at the flesh over this period of time.

Clan Special Characteristics:

Spoiler:

o.o Wow, rather detailed and interesting clan.

So far, everything checks out alright. The only thing I have a question about for the moment concerns your jutsu--Chakra Cloud. What exactly is the chakra capacity for it and how much chakra would it sap a post? (I'm assuming it's something that occurs post by post, if not please correct me!)

Oh, and on a lesser extent, Ashi Kasai--when you say 'alarming rate' do you mean instantly or over the span of a few posts?

It's kind of late for me though... so I might have missed a few things. I'll go back over it again tomorrow. But I do believe it's passable for the most part o.o

I tried my best lol

Chakra Cloud - The chakra capacity is equal to the rank of the jutsu, as in, it can absorb an A rank amount of chakra for an A rank use, and so on. It also takes 2-3 posts for a complete drain/replenish, which I added to the jutsu.

Ashi Kasai - Over the span of 2 posts, which I added to the jutsu.

Munashii Bakuha – Lifeless Explosion
Detonation damage range?
At what point do they become B/A/S ranked?

Munashii Henge – Lifeless Transformation
Why does its rank vary?

Clan special characteristics
Chakra Control should be listed here, should it not? There are more here that may or may not be associated with your clan.


Oh and, could you perhaps explain the Customization chart for me? I got a little confused figuring out that part.

Munashii Bakuha - One Skeletons is equal to one explosive note. I clarified this in the description, and added a rank chart

Munashii Henge - Because of the second use, making the skeletons appear as the user. The more skeletons that are transformed at once/at the same time, the higher the rank, wouldn't you say?

SC's - I figured since the site was revamping I shouldn't add the SC's just yet, but alright. Your right though, Chakra Control was the only thing I can see being there, from the list.

Customization Chart - I thought it might be slightly confusing, lol. As that section of the description says, its possible for clan members to combine skeletons together to make a new creature. Since the skeletons are E-D rank, these creatures are what make up the C-S rank "puppets" of the clan. On the left of the chart, it explains what rank a creature would be by how many skeletons are combined. For example if you combine 20skeletons, you will get a B rank creature.

The second half of the chart, the right side, shows how many skeletons a single creature by rank counts towards the total amount of skeletons a member can control at once. For example, a B rank member can control a maximum of 32 skeletons, and a single B rank creature will take up 8 skeletons by itself. I basically made it out so that a member will be up to their skeleton maximum if they control 4 equal rank creatures.

Does it make sense now? lol

Hmm everything checks out alright with me.

The only thing I could see as having potential issues is the "Undead Essence" thing--but hey, we've had stranger bloodlines so I think it's passable. [And maybe some jutsus--since I'm no good with those, but they seem alright with me given the limitations set within in your bloodline as well.]

Mmm approved unless said otherwise, with the note that this may later need editing.
