Shosen no Jutsu (Healing Hands Technique)
Rank: D, C, B, A, S
Skill: Ninjutsu
Effect: The user heals injuries that repairs physical damage.
Special: ---
Drawback: certain injuries may be impossible to cure or may take a long time to cure. The amount of chakra used is proportional to the injury required to be healed.
Description: The user gathers chakra into their hands, creating a bright green glow around them. The user then forces the healing chakra into the body of the patient, healing physical damage. This technique requires three movements to heal a minor injury and six movements to heal a major injury, minus one for every rank in this technique above D the user possesses, to a minimum of one. Starting at B rank, the user is able to heal critical injuries with this technique. Healing a critical injury requires sixteen movements, minus one movement for every rank above B the user possesses. Remove one movement from this process for every difficulty rank above D the user possesses.
Limit: Must be a medic, must know Gantai no Jutsu.

The mission to investigate Senka House was considered to be high-priority by Otogakure. To Riza, this implied danger. If a genius like herself were to be wounded or killed, the entire world might be the worse for it. Not that she gave a damn about the world. She took on this task for the sake of her own curiosity, and she would have satisfaction.
But there was nothing wrong with taking preemptive action to secure her own survival. She'd read the books, had saved lives with the information contained in them, but had yet to master a single technique of restorative properties. This would not be permitted to stand. Casting her mind back to some of the more esoteric tomes on the subject of life preservation, those dealing in the applications of chakra and ninjutsu to the recovery process, she recalled a highly simplistic skill that might be of use.
The Healing Hand could close wounds large and small efficiently, provided the user were skilled enough. Additional treatment would be required for certain injuries, but simply stemming the flow of blood could purchase precious time. She needed to learn this technique. It was a pity her memory wasn't eidetic. Stored information grew vague when remaining in disuse. But she recalled enough that it was simply a matter of channeling chakra to the hand. No handseals or other special gestures, just...control. Granted, handseals theoretically had nothing to do with ninjutsu or genjutsu being cast beyond allowing for ease of manipulation to the users chakra, but...
No. None of that really mattered. Ninjutsu and genjutsu required seals no matter what. Many times had she witnessed experiments attempting to prove the contrary only to fail. Medical jutsu was a thing apart, more akin to taijutsu in that discipline was the only requirement. Theories weren't going to keep her alive though. All she could do was attempt to emulate her recollection of the technique's appearance and properties - a green glow around the hand, and the power to heal open wounds.
Given the proven focusing potential of the twelve zodiac handseals, she began to cast them herself. The technique itself didn't call for them, but she could work on doing it automatically later. For now, all that was required was the most basic of successes. Using the seals as a conduit to manipulate the flow of her chakra, she would siphon more and more to her left hand until the very air around it shuddered with the density of its presence. In other words the glow, if one might even call it that, was entirely colorless. As in not green. Green being the desired color, attempt one would be marked as a failure.
Riza did not like failure. Not at all. Perhaps she required an actual wound to heal as the proper impetus to perform correctly? Yes, that seemed reasonable enough. So she bit down on her right thumb, hard. It took discipline to ignore the protests of her nervous system, but she maintained and increased the pressure until her flesh split apart and blood welled from within. It was a small wound, and would not take long to clot, leaving the girl a narrow window in which to perform.
Again she would focus her chakra, this time tracing in her mind the same pattern as formed by the handseals, and twisting it just a touch. Instead of raw energy, she sought energy fraught with purpose - restoring her body to its natural, uninjured state. This time, the aura surrounding her empty left palm bore a faint blue-green hue. Not very powerful, but the standards of her reading, but perhaps a success?
She laid her hand over the bleeding digit. With luck, the wound would seal up and be no more. Of course, it would do nothing about the blood already spilt, staining her gloves slightly, but they could be washed later.
