Okiro no Higi (Ritual of Awakening)
Materials: Benihime Sword, one quart of the user's blood.
Special: ---
Preperation:The user must fast for a total of three days and nights. When that is done, the user will cut themselves using the Benihime sword and collect the blood that comes out until they have a quart (this is a lot of blood). Because of this, it is dangerous to perform this Ritual outside of the range of a medical shinobi. The fasting is meant to purify the blood before it is used for the Ritual, to make sure that as little corruption is within the system as possible.
Description: Once the blood is obtained, the user will perform the Hand Seals of every animal within the Chinese Zodiac in chronological order. A bright blue aura will overtake the user and then the user will pick up the sword. Dipping the edge of it into the blood, the user's chakratic aura will slowly begin to shift into red. Blood from the bottom will begin to run up the edges of the blade, giving the blade a crimson tint. This process of blood moving up the blade takes about thirty posts. When the blood reaches the guard of the sword, the blood will move from the left and to the right, forming the shape of three ribbons on the left and twelve triangular beads (Chibi-zu) on the right. Within five posts, these will harden completely and becoming almost like a fabric.
Effects: Allows the user to use the Blood Techniques of the Benihime.
Drawback:The user will be forced to rest for a total of twenty RP posts after performing this ritual.[Blood transfusion jutsu performed by Myriam Nade. Cutting time to 0 posts] It is very physically taxing, requiring that the user regain all of the blood that they have lost. After they have rested, their difficulty class when considering them using any Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, or Taijutsu will be cut in half for a total of 50 additional RP posts after resting.
Limit: Must be Gained by the Great Swordsmith Masters;; the scroll for this Ritual is a part of the price paid for the sword.Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Ram, Moneky, Dog, Boar
I needlessly chanted them in my head as my hands twined into each symbol of the venerable Chinese zodiac. I had the out of place wonder about why we Japanese shinobi used signs based on the Chinese, but just as quickly as the thought had entered my mind it was gone again. As my hands closed in the Boar seal I felt an electrical tingle build in the nexus of my being - my soul responded to the stimuli, sending along more ripples, as if a pebble had been dropped into a pond.
The calming sensation reverberated outward to the rhythmic pulse of my heart, a’thump thumpon to the tune of my life. The tingle grew into a blue light that manifested as my aura, as if I were a light. I grabbed Benihime from my right side, dropping my hand to the hilt so delicately you’d have thought she were a baby. I dipped her tip in my blood, and then…
It began to move.
