Shadow Mask
Rank: "C"
Skill: GenJutsu
Effect: User causes a mask of shadows to form around their face.
Special: "Handseals"
Drawback: ---
Description: Affects anyone who sees the user. The user is able to perform this technique on themselves. The duration of this technique lasts for 50 minutes per class level. This technique may be negated. It does not impede their vision, cannot be physically removed, completely hides their features. User also gains a 50% chance each round to avoid having to make a saving throw against gaze attacks, just as if they averted their eyes. When the Jutsu's duration ends, the Shadow Mask fades over the course of 1d4 rounds (rather than immediately), giving the user time to keep their face hidden via other means. A successful Dispel GenJutsu performed against a Shadow Mask effectively ends the Jutsu and causes the same slow fading.
Limit: Must know the Shadow Perception.

Dispatched and sent on a retrieval mission for once was exciting. The heat of Honey, the city in Bears, beat down on her and she welcomed it even if her blue skin baked and the abnormal change in environment had taken a change for the interesting. For how lovely the ride here had been this particular part of the city was an absolute dump. Buildings were crumbling at the foundation, cracks webbing up from the ground where graffiti tags lay in contrast; Some new, others faded and worn. The ride in the Flying Destruction Machine was cloaked to hide the whirling chop of the blades propelling them as Juniper and Gwyn were to reach their destination unharmed and unnoticed.

"Here." She motioned to a building, her fingers clasped as she worked on the newer form of magic the spirit elders had told her was scary and led down a sinister path. Manipulation of the shadows. The sway and bump of the turbulence didn't bother her much but she found she was unsurprisingly indifferent how her teammate Gwyn might see her after having to get dirty like this. There were few like herself when it came to eating away at the sodden rotted parts of society and doing it with a bloody smile. Unraveling a small map she turned and laid it out on the seat, an extra set of arms aiding in the act while she was busy performing seals to begin the operation.

"Inside. Transport of village scroll and relocation efforts. We extract and eliminate only where suspicion is minimal." Smoothing out the corners to tapped a finger at the corner entrance here, enter. Guards. Will distract- no casualties till inside." Looking up from her seat she nodded to make sure Gwyn was soaking this all in. Decked in all black gear save for anything to cover the shock of white hair she had grown out since coming to the village she raised her brows in question of confirmation before flashing a toothy smile. "Also, have fun. Very important." Like a childhood prank she covered her face with all four hands and came away with an obsidian mask of black devoid of expressions or features. While staring to it was hard it was clear as day that something, whatever behind it now, was not the playful Juniper.

"Tiamat operational!" She called over to the pilot before sliding one of the compound doors and waving gwyn along, jumping down where the building top waited 20 meters below.

Gwyn held a forlorn expression as she looked down at the decrepit streets bellow. It reminded her of home, but only the bad parts. Only the scraping for food and fighting for money. She imagined the people living down there, them struggling for survival and working their fingers to the bone to eek out a meager existence under the shadow of some noble. She imagined them struggling just to die and no one knowing. No one caring. Gwyn's fists were clenched, and her chakra was roiling underneath the surface of her skin. She hated that reality, and hated wishing it could be better, but not having the power to change it.

"Harness your anger, Gwynevir," her 'Father's' words echoed through the growing typhoon of horror that the woman's mind was conjuring up. She closed her eyes and took a deep, steadying breath. She tried to calm her mind and push the thoughts to the back of her head and stay in the present. Focus on the mission, she silently told herself as she turned away from the sight and towards her companion who unrolled a map of their intended Drop Zone and mission Area.

"Inside. Transport of village scroll and relocation efforts. We extract and eliminate only where suspicion is minimal." Smoothing out the corners to tapped a finger at the corner entrance "here, enter. Guards. Will distract- no casualties till inside."

Gwyn leaned in to study the map as well. Normally, she would have asked how many guards. Normally she would have wanted to know what kind of weapons and abilities they'd be facing. But all she could think about was the fact that this kind of shit was worldwide; people taking advantage of the weak and forcing them to live in filth while simultaneously mocking them for their position. Sparks of chakra crackled around Gwyn's still clenched fists as it roiled to the surface practically against her will, reacting purely to her nature. It felt like a storm was brewing inside of her chest, and all she wanted to do was to just let it out.

"Also, have fun. Very important."

Her green eye's flashed wide with anticipation and a wicked and hateful smile crossed her face. "Aye aye," Gwyn's chakra was practically screaming to fly out of her body and tear into some oppressors, and she was ready to let it. Gwyn quickly ran through a few of her own hand seals and cast a similar jutsu on herself that Juniper had, except her's covered her entire body, taking away all physical features and turning her into a standing shadow.

The pair exited the Flying contraption and touched down with practiced grace onto the rooftop. Gwyn took a final look back at their transport, then turned to Juniper.

"We don't...have to wait until we're inside though. right?"

Landing hard the imp of a girl rolled to her feet and looked around. It was worse up close. Unbeknownst of her to Gwyn's own mental state she seemed ready too but only for the action part of it. Could be useful once she was inside of the building to begin with. Times like these she thought of heroism and this seemingly martyr's philosophy to sacrifice one's self for their home. Patronage. She could conjure those same feelings right between her fingers and instill that in any weak minded passerby. This was the kind of work Gwyn signed up for and she got not sympathetic looks from juniper.

"Is best to wait. Get inside first, then rend. If necessary." Those were the kind of mission parameters Snow was trying to teach her. She was feral when Himi had found her, a terror of epic proportions. They'd done much to hone her but that never killed the fire in her heart. The cruelty behind closed doors when left alone to the devices of man has made her exceptionally worse mentally and he had regressed at one point. The fanaticism of her teammate made her see her as a tool rather than an ally.

Approaching the corner of the rooftop she pointed downward at the long man standing in front of dingy double doors. "Entry. Go unnoticed. Exit with commotion. Smoke" she point at Gwyn "mirror" to which she pointed to herself. The black mask of shadow she wore persisted even under the intensity of the sun and with a hand she gave Gwyn a little push on the hip and infused her with the rancor of the wilds. "Be brave." She rasped and stared down the building at a full tilt like a leaf on the wind. Quiet as one too. Part of her wondered if she was just going to do her own thing anyways though.

Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The user creates a mass of blue-white lightning petals.
Special: “Hand Seals”
Drawback: Not a complete technique, but a set-up for others.

They then mold the chakra into several hundred blue-white sakura petals of lightning in a three-meter radius around the user, like the Sand of a Saton user. These petals float gently around the user’s body. Each one gives out minor shocking, but together they can give strong shocks and burns akin to a C rank shock. The petals last until the user chooses to dispel them. The user can control these techniques in a fifteen meter radius around them.
Limit: Must have Raiton.

Gwyn's right hand rattled rapidly through a series of handseals as she approached the edge of the roof. She layered first a defensive coating of shadow chakra underneath her shadowform, and then added on another layer of shadows overtop her form that not only gave her a second layer of defense, but essentially transformed her shillouette into something hardly recognizable as human. The sun interfered with the shadows to be sure, but the mingling of the two techniques would still leave her mostly shrouded from identification.

The third technique was one she hadn't actually used. Gwyn dug deep and pulled up chakra to the surface of her skin. Her eyes closed and she concentrated for a long moment, visualizing each handseal and solidifying them in her mind. Focusing on the meaning of each one and the different attribute it applied to her life force. Her Father had always told her she had an aptitude for lightning, and had tried to teach her in the past, but her chakra reserves were never great enough to muster up anything of real substance; wind and illusions were all she could do back then. Even now, she could feel the bottom of her limited chakra pool. And yet...

A spark shot out from Gwyn's shadowy form and into the air, where it lingered, dancing and bouncing rapidly between two points, leaving a wintry-blue trail in it's wake as it drew the shape of a single sakura petal over and over again. She willed it to move faster and faster. Unwilling and unable to fill out the petal with chakra, she instead opted to make the outline of the petal and push the edict of lightning's speed to it's absolute limit. Within the span of a few breaths the petal was formed, dancing on winds that Gwyn imagined for it and vibrating with such an intense frequency it sounded like the hum of a tiny generator.

She looked upon her work and smiled. Then, in a flash, all around her the air was suddenly alight with hundreds, if not thousands, of similar petals. They crackled when they passed by each other, and the droning noise was now considerably louder.

"Right," Gwyn cracked her knuckles and stepped off the edge of the roof and onto the wall, using CHAKRA FEEEET to stand perpendicular to Juniper. She looked 'up' at the guard and crouched. "I'll keep 'em busy then." She pushed off the wall and jumped down towards the guard, using gravity to accelerate her body. Like a missile she flew through the air and like a ghost she landed in absolute silence right in front of the Guard.

The guard took a step back in surprise at the sudden appearance of this...shape? He blinked, trying to understand what exactly it was he was looking at. His eyes widened in alarm as he realized the figure was approaching him quite rapidly, and not until his back hit the wall of the building he was guarding did he realize he was even retreating.

"Wh-" Suddenly, all around him were the petals. The shocks didn't hurt, but they instantaneously yanked his attention away from this specter before him. "Wh-what the- ow! What!? What!!?" He flailed, trying to swat away the petals.

Gwyn took this opportunity to lunge towards him and hit him in the chest with a Flying knee. Under better circumstances, the technique would have launched him at least 8 meters, but with his back to a wall, he instead struck the structure with enough force to crack the brickwork behind him and surely alert anyone near the entrance to a commotion outside. The guard folded and crumpled into a heap at Gwyn's feet, gasping in vain to put air in his collapsed chest.

"Take short breaths," Gwyn said to him in a dismissive tone before turning her attention to the entrance.

As they charged down the building Juniper just watched the woman pull ahead with some idea about distraction, staring at her blankly from behind her mask to try and understand what the hell was going on in the first place. "But.. why.." Didn't get the chance. She was going down to simply charm the man into forgetting they were even there to begin with but the sparking flow of chakra told them differently. Instead of meeting her on the ground she went incorporeal, melding deep into the structure of the building and landing somewhere within on a catwalk that oversaw the massive metal shipping crates below.

The floor.. littered with patrolling guards all communicating and flashing their lights around. They appeared to be mere people with no real chakra affinity, armed with basic weapons but it wasn't their skill that was annoying. It was the numbers. Biting down on her tongue she summoned that will that'd made her hated in the village, that'd been instilled in her within the wild. The kind of wild ferocity that she'd been weaned to collar and leash to be on beck and call rather than a free savage. It filled her veins with white hot and her skin grew warm too in response.

Just then... movement in the rafters, movement she missed until she looked up and was staring into wide eyes glaring back with the sort of intensity that drew knots in the stomach. Genjutsu. A shame her steeled resolve refused to let her falter. Seemed her attacked knew that too and she threw a sound bubble over his mouth when he opened it to alert the men below, his scream following along a chakra trail right into her ear. His fear at being unable to hear himself scream was like ecstasy, her personal drug. The guards below were none the wiser to her leaping upon her surprise guess with a twist of failed irony and digging deep chakra blades into his chest cavity.

Gwyn calmly and casually walked up the wall and stood above the doorway and waited for the first unfortunate bastard to come out and check on his friend. Gwyn began preforming another string of handseals just as the door creaked open. Her eyes watched the portal swing open unblinkingly. Her chakra petals dance sped up and began to twirl in front of her shadowed form.

The chakra inside the petals tightened and coiled like springs, and about ten of them were now visibly quivering in the air before her. Each single petal wouldn't cause much damage, but as a collective they could put out quite a bit of pain. But hurting this guy wasn't her goal with this technique; her goal was to use the inherently paralytic proporties that lightning had to put him out for a while. She knew from contact with this technique that it could scramble the signals that your brain sent to the area struck, leaving it paralyze momentarily, and she theorized that a direct shot to the top of the head should knock a person unconscious for at least a few minutes.

"Hey what's going on out here?" The newcomer asked as he peeked his head out. He looked to the left, and saw nothing. Then he looked to his right, peering around the door, and saw the crumpled heap of his co-worker. His eyes went wide in surprise. Gwyn smiled behind her shadows and released her mental hold on the tightened chakra. The petals fired with a sound akin to a breaker shorting and struck the man in the back of the head. He tumbled out of the doorway and onto the ground, leaving the entrance wide open.

"Chump."

Tough this one, struggling even with her blades in his chest, thrashing ever so slightly and grabbing her by the abdomen and trying to pry her off... so she severed his fingers. They were going to fall down below and alert the guards and her cover would be blown at the very least even if she went invisible... but this one had seen her already. The plan was simple. The chakra blade blared through the air with flashing light and the edges grew sharp and defines, glowing from the fresh doubling of chakra she pumped into him.

The fingers tumbling over themselves in the air end over end was her main hourglass of perception to do away with this man, becoming a blur of too many limbs and light to be natural for a little thing like her but there she was.She opened him with wounds that didn't even start to bleed yet but threatening to well up to the surface in threat of spilling over. He died on his feet in some grimy warehouse where she carved a hole in his chest, kicked him out of the rafters and let the deceased body splatter below in the midst of the guards.

Two seconds of silence and then an uproar. They were all a chattering among themselves and into walkies. Like a bolt of lightning she streaked from her spot, down right onto the head of a mean which came clean off with her when she jumped away after, toppling to the floor. She stood to her minuscule, a red and blue horror devoid of any defining facial features and gripping her chakra scalpels tight.

"Hi."

Raiton: Sakurai Uzu, 雷光: 丹色 木 雷光 渦, (Lightning Style: Cherry Blossom Lightning Swirl)
Rank: C
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The user forms a shield out of lightning petals.
Special: “Hand Seals”
Drawback: Raiton: Sakurai must be active.
Description: The user forms the hand seals, focusing their chakra into the Sakurai petals around them. Releasing the lightning chakra, the user sends the petals spinning in tornado around their body, shielding them from sight and defending them by exuding equal and opposite force to the attack, negating it. The shield can withstand two C rank or lower strikes before being disrupted by further attack. Anyone coming into contact with the swirling Sakurai petals will find themselves suffering a mild shock akin to a severe first-degree burn. Tangible elements without strong electromagnetic fields (Doton and Mokuton) pass through this without difficulty.
Limit: Must have Raiton. Must know Raiton: Sakurai.

Gwyn snuck in, slipping through the top of the doorframe and using the light from the sakurai pedals to cast shadows for her to hide in. She moved into the compound quickly, but then came to an immediate stop when she heard the sudden burst of commotion from deeper inside. Panicked shouts and wails of terror; she knew those sounds well.

"Oh, the party started~" she cooed from the shadows as a few guards rushed out from an adjacent doorway. "No need for stealth then," Her shadow form fell away, and she stood, smiling, in the center of the room. Her lightning petals rushed to her and swirled around her like a swarm of electric bugs as she preformed another string of handseals. This time, however, she used her intuition to do this next technique. She didn't know it had a proper name, not that the name would have mattered in the first place, but she understood the potential versatility a technique like this had. Offence, utility and of course defense.

At the end of the short string of seals, the mass of petals was swirling even more rapidly around her. They were given instructions by the seals, and the energy to shift their position with just a slight extra push of chakra to maintain their rotation around her. Now, she was practically a column of light instead a pillar of darkness, but no less imposing of a figure if the expressions of these two men were anything to go by. One of them had a crossbow and he leveled it in her direction. Perfect, she thought, a test. She knew the tip would be metal, and her petals should be able to interact with it and interfear with it's flight path purely through their nature.

He fired. The bolt launched. It struck the wall and in a flash of light, it came to a dead stop as if it hit a solid wall. Gwyn laughed. The man fired again, and the same effect happened. Unnerved now, he took a step back. "C'mon, third time's the charm," she called out in a mocking tone. Shaking, the man fired off a third bolt. It turned out that the third time really was the charm, as it suddenly passed right through the petals. Gwyn's eyes widened as the bolt whizzed past her face. "Oh holy fu-," Gwyn cut herself off as the man was suddenly straighter steeled by the resolve of his 'success'.

"...fuck."

All the talking seemed to garner the proper attention but she see now that there was a kind of insanity going on in the room. The wild looks of sudden surprise and shock going around at her gruesome display. Shame when some of them blinked she was gone, a shadow, skittering between legs and feet where men and women alike didn't even notice her. To add to her fun they stepped right around her and she took a sick pleasure in removing their foot from the calf in a clean slice. The dead weight hit the floor and she looked up for the next victim.

Careful not to step in the blood she moved around the people in the dead quiet, slicing and dicing, the cruelest kind of pleasure she took out on a living creature like these thugs. They hollered and screamed while she reveled in it, laughing to herself because the noise would blow her cover. Seemed Gwyn had finally let herself in and Juniper looked her way but was invisible and couldn't be seen.

"About time." Called the imp but she was nowhere to be seen in the moment. Instead it was just the darkness of the warehouse and people sprinting around for their dear lives while she relished it.

Gwyn nimbly dodged another crossbow bolt as her mind toyed with the idea of taking these two out with her own crossbow, but she was enjoying testing out the possibilities of the lightning petals. They made defenses, distractions, long range projectiles, but she wondered if they could also make short range weaponry too. She contemplated which seals she would need to use in the string to force the chakra to be packed together tightly enough to form a weapon of some type. A sword was always an excellent go to.

She held the image of the blade in her mind and preformed the seals she believed would condense the petals. A mass of them collected together in her hand and began to take the vague shape she had pictured. It was crude, and it would need practice to actually look like a sword as right now it was more like an erratically moving bolt of lightning but it would do.

Thinking Gwyn had left herself open, the man with the sword rushed in towards her, much to the annoyance of his ranged companion, and started for her in a defensive posture. Gwyn, always being the aggressive type, swung her newly formed blade for him, intending to unleash a flurry of strikes against his guard and break his posture, leaving him wide open for a finishing strike. That was her intent, but what actually transpired was far more shocking. The lightning blade passed through his sword, and through the man's body, causing him to immediately begin convulsing. Gwyn exclaimed, "Holy shit!" when he fell to the floor, spasmodic and bleeding profusely from the mouth. He bit his tongue clean off.

Gwyn turned to look the crossbow man dead in the eyes, and his fear was real. His hands trembled. Gwyn's smile grew into a wicked grin. "Now this I can work with."
