Hyouton Clan

Bloodline: This unique bloodline is the ability to create ice on the whim and to travel through it. They can small amounts of water and can perform jutsu only using one hand. Please note that you need a source of water to do these moves unless you have the water collection skill.

Clan Techniques:

Academy Level Techniques

- Water Manipulation; One [Mizu Ayatsuri; Ichi]
From birth, some members of the Hyouketsu clan have the ability to mentally control water and ice. At a young age, this is shown by a near complete immunity to cold environments. Once the child matures, they may discover that they can mold water and turn it into ice. At this stage, however, only about a cup of water may be manipulated or frozen at a time. | Passive HP Bonus to anything made of Ice: 5 | Academy

- One-Handed Seals [Ichi-Te Inpu]
The secret to performing One-Handed Seals is one that has been passed down from generation to generation within the Hyouketsu. Like its name suggests, the user is able to perform any jutsu by making seals with only one hand. This, of course, is not to say that the user can't also perform seals with two hands. In fact, two-handed seals must be learned first. If the user is advanced enough in chakra, he or she is capable of performing jutsu that is at least two ranks lower then his or her own at the same time. | Passive | Academy

Genin Level Techniques

- Water Manipulation; Two [Mizu Ayatsuri; Ni]
At this stage, the Hyouketsu works on perfecting their ability to control water instead of the ability to control more water at once. Unlike the previous stage, the user can control multiple sources of water in a four foot area around the user, although he or she can still only control about a cup of water at a time. The freezing process also becomes more defined, allowing the Hyouketsu to form sharp edges in the ice, which means that small weapons can be created. The user is also learning to make colder and denser ice, meaning that his or her creations are becoming harder. | Passive HP Bonus to anything made of Ice: 10 | Genin

- Demonic Gateway [Makyou Kadoguchi]
The creation of the Makyou Kadoguchi is a secret technique passed along from generation to generation. It has been theorized that that the Hyouketsu bloodline stems from some connection with the Behemoth that has never been lost and that these mirrors are really a portal to the realm in which the Behemoth dwells. Regardless of the truth, this jutsu mere creates a 6' by 3' sheet of ice that can be slowly moved around. The ice, however, is not clear but appears as though there is something white between two planes of glass. If the user knows the Hidden Ice Technique, he or she can completely hide themselves within the Makyou Kadoguchi despite the fact that it is less then an inch thick. When one does so, they appear as though they are a portrait. | Chakra- 25 | HP- 20 | Advanced Genin | Requires Water Manipulation; Two and Clan Owner's Approval with Kage Approval.

- Frozen Ground Skill [Touketsu Daichi no Jutsu]
By rapidly condensing water into ice above the surface of the ground of a source of water, the user is capable of creating a large ice slick. Although Hyouketsu are capable of walking over the ice unhindered, others may slip on the ice. | Chakra- 10 (Per 3 Meters) | Genin | Must Know Water Manipulation; Two

- Flying Water Needles [Sensatsu Suishou]
By rapidly collecting small amounts of water, freezing them, and then projecting them the user can create a swarm of ice needles. | Chakra- 3 (Per Needle) | Damage- 2 (Per Needle) | Genin | Must know Water Manipulation; Two

- Hidden Ice Skill [Hitoshirezu Aisu no Jutsu]
By using a careful system of ice manipulation the user is able to mold ice around him or herself at a very rapid pace. This allows the Hyouketsu to move through ice and snow as though it where air or water. | Chakra- 25 | Genin | Must know - Water Manipulation; Two. Effect lasts two posts.

Chuunin Level Techniques

- Water Manipulation; Three [Mizu Ayatsuri; San]
The Hyouketsu's skill is refined even more. Now they can control how the ice breaks and reforms to make curved and smoothed edges, unlike the rocky and misshapen ones before. Many people that reach this stage even become artists, making complex and beautiful ice sculptures. In battle the user can easily make many small weapons such as kunai and shuriken. At this stage up to a pint of water within a five foot radius can be manipulated at a time. | Passive HP Bonus to anything made of Ice: 30 | Chuunin

- Snow Clone Skill [Yuki Bunshin no Jutsu]
A skill which creates clones composed of a thin layer of ice and water. The ice clones are significantly weaker than the user but are still capable of inflicting damage on the opponent. A clone is capable of taking two good hits before dieing. | Chakra- 8 (per clone) | The clones are considered to have one third of the creator's stats. | Chuunin

- Grip of Ice [Nigiri Aisu]
After getting the opponent onto icy ground (usually through the frozen ground skill) the user performs a sequence of hand-seals and causes the ice below an opponent to rise up and trap their feet in the ice. | Chakra- 20 | Chuunin | Must know Water Manipulation; Three. Strength of 5 required to get free.

- Ice Element; Crystal Snowflake [Hyouton; Kurisutaru Yukihakuhen]
The user condenses a large amount of water into a tiny ice sphere with only a quarter inch radius. When this tiny sphere hits something with enough force, it bursts open. When it does it creates seven pillars of ice instantly; one facing away from the impact, and six others on the sides. These ice pillars pierce anything in their path. | Chakra- 30 (Per Sphere) | Damage- 25 (Per Spear) | Chuunin | Must Know Water Manipulation; Three

- Ice Spears [Aisu Yari]
By condensing a large amount of water into ice, the user creates several large, 4' long spears. These spears actually resemble large icicle and can be projected with impressive force. This is basically just an upgraded version of the Frozen Water Needles Skill. | Chakra- 10 (Per Spear) | Damage- 20 (Per Spear) | Chuunin | Must know Water Manipulation; Three

- Demonic Gateway Ice Hall [Makyou Kadoguchi Ho-Ru]
An advanced form of the Demon Gateway, this technique creates a solid sheet of ice going in one direction. The direction can be going away from the user, into the sky, side to side to form a wall, or any other direction imaginable. After the large sheet of ice is created, it splits up into separate Makyou Kadoguchi. Once someone is of the jounin rank they can make two lines instead of one, and can even connect the lines. | Chakra- 20 (Per Mirror) | Makyou Kadoguchi's HP- 20 | Advanced Chuunin | Must know Demon Gateway and Water Manipulation; Three.

ANBU Level Techniques

- Water Manipulation; Four [Mizu Ayatsuri; Shi]
Now that the Hyouketsu has perfected his form, he now strives to perfect his strength. He has learned to spread his influence over a much larger area, and has learned to control a far larger volume of water. At this stage, up to two quarts of water within a ten foot radius may be freely controlled at any one time. It's not uncommon for a Hyouketsu who has reached this stage to simply make his own weapons out of ice rather then buy them. By super condensing the water before forming it into ice, the Hyouketsu is capable of making stronger and sharper objects. | Passive HP Bonus to anything made of Ice: 60 | ANBU

- Ice Element; Swallow Attack [Hyouton; Tsubame Fubuki]
The user gathers water and condenses it into ice. The ice is basically shaped like needles with wings. Much like the Frozen Water Needles attack they are then projected at the enemy in a swarm. However, this time the needles can be further controlled by the user, as though the needles where an intelligent flock of birds trying to ram their opponent. The birds will continue following the will of the user until they hit something or are destroyed. | Chakra- 5 (Per Needle) | Damage- 5 (Per Needle) | Advanced ANBU | Must know Water Manipulation; Four and Flying Water Needles

- Frozen Instantaneous Body Skill [Hyoushunshin no Jutsu]
An advanced form of the Hidden Ice Skill, this jutsu allows the user to transport between sources of ice without passing through the area between them. Someone who knows this jutsu can freely transport between any Makyou Hyoushou as a free action that costs no chakra once every two posts. | Chakra- 40 | ANBU | Must know Water Manipulation; Four

- Demon Gateway Entrapment Skill [Makyou Kadoguchi Wana no Jutsu]
The user creates ten Makyou Kadoguchi that surround an opponent and two Makyou Hyoushou above the opponent. After entering the Makyou Kadoguchi himself, the image of the Hyouketsu appears in all surrounding mirrors, hiding the user's real location. | Chakra- 150 | Makyou Kadoguchi's HP- 20 | ANBU | Must know Water Manipulation; Four and Demon Gateway Ice Hall.

- Demon Gateway Reflection Clone [Makyou Kadoguchi Bunshin Kaisou]
By using both the reflection in the Makyou Kadoguchi and ice as a base, the user is able to create a clone of anyone. The reflection looks exactly like the original, and has the same physical properties. However, it is not capable of performing any Jutsu. The clone's only real weakness is that it is still bound to the mirror that it emerged from. If that is destroyed, the clone turns into an inert ice sculpture of itself. | Chakra- 30 | Clone has the same stats as the original at the time of creation, including HP and Chakra | Advanced ANBU | Must know Water Manipulation; Four and Demon Gateway.

- Tendrils of the Demonic Gateway [Shokushu Makyou Kadoguchi]
The user performs a sequence of hand-seals with one hand and places his other hand on a Makyou Kadoguchi. Six tendrils appear out of the other side of the mirror. They are as cold as ice, but they are not clear. In stead, they are white as snow. The tendrils can be up to twelve feet in length and are capable of sinking back into the Makyou Kadoguchi and appearing in another one. The tendrils are also capable of instantaneously reforming if somehow destroyed, so the only way to defeat them is to destroy the mirror they are currently residing in. However, the tendrils can not be separated. | Chakra- 60 | Tendrils have a strength of 10 | Advanced ANBU | Must know Water Manipulation; Four and Makyou Kadoguchi

Jounin Level Techniques

- Water Manipulation; Five [Mizu Ayatsuri; Go]
Advancements in chakra control have allowed the Hyouketsu to achieve levels never before though possible. Up to two gallons of water may be controlled at a time and the distance of the Hyouketsu's influence is fifteen feet. What's most unique to this style, however, is that the Hyouketsu no longer make ice by lowering the temperature of water. Instead, they compress it. This makes ice that is almost as durable as metal. | Passive HP Bonus to anything made of Ice: 100 | Jounin

- Ice Prison Skill [Hyouro no Jutsu]
The user places one hand on the ground while constantly performing hand-seals with the other. Several pillars of ice rise out of the ground, beginning in front of the user. The pillars can only be summoned up to two feet apart from the last one that was summoned, but they are summoned in a fairly rapid manner. The pillars do not impale the people above them when they are summoned; instead the pillars ignore that person's existence, forming around him or her. Then the pillar solidifies, trapping that person in ice. The Once activated, the pillars can continue being summoned as long as the user continues making hand seals and keeps one hand on the ground. | Chakra- 200 | Jounin | Must know Water Manipulation; Five

- Avalanche Skill [Nadare no Jutsu]
One of the most advanced techniques in the Hyouketsu arsenal, the user literally converts all water in the area into ice. Then a roaring whirlwind is swept across his area, picking up all the ice and snow and sending it towards an opponent, covering everything in a layer of ice and snow. If the Hyouketsu happens to be near a large body of water when performing this jutsu, large clumps of ice are sent along with the whirlwind which are capable of crushing their victims. | Chakra- 150 | Damage- 150 | Advanced Jounin | Must know Water Manipulation; Five. Damage is only applied if the user is close to a large source of water.

- Ice Element; Piercing Dragon Fierce Tiger [Hyouton; Haryuu Muuko]
A technique comparable to the Water Dragon Blast Skill, this jutsu requires a large source of ice near by. By manipulating the ice, the user is able to take it and shoot it in a blast whose end is shaped like a tiger towards an opponent. Although it's actually a solid, the Hyouketsu is able to manipulate the ice to such and extent that it acts as though it is a liquid. | Chakra- 120 | Damage- 220 | Jounin | Must have a large source of Ice. Must know Water Manipulation; Five

- Ice Element; Behemoth Strike [Hyouton; Kaibutsu Dageki]
After performing a row of hand-seals the Hyouketsu places both hands against a Makyou Hyoushou. A loud roar is heard and out of the other end a blast of ice, similar to the Hyouton; Haryuu Muuko skill, is sent towards an enemy. This blast, however, is in the shape of a great winged behemoth. | Chakra- 120 | Damage- 300 | Advanced Jounin | Must know Demonic Ice Mirror and Water Manipulation; Five

- Behemoth Clone Summoning [Kaibutsu Bunshin Yobidasu]
A forbidden technique that utilizes the powers of Yugithima. The user creates a Makyou Hyoushou, but this time it has a large number of glowing blue seals on it. The user then performs another sequence of hand-seals and then hits the Makyou Hyoushou with both hands. A small crack forms and a very small hole opens up in the mirror. A blizzard comes out of that hole, and the snow from that blizzard collects into the form of a large winged behemoth. The behemoth is capable of flight, and is incredibly strong. Also, the blizzard from the hole in the Makyou Hyoushou will constantly replenish the behemoth, making it immortal. Unfortunately, this is also the behemoth's weakness. For if the Makyou Hyoushou that the behemoth originated from is destroyed, it turns into an inert pile of snow and ice. | Chakra- 150 | The Behemoth has 15 strength and 7 in everything else. | Kinjutsu | Must know Demonic Ice Mirror.

- Demonic Gateway Osmoses [Makyou Kadoguchi Suitoru]
A forbidden technique that seals its victims in an eternal prison. After use then Demonic Gateway Tendrils to trap an unwary opponent, the user commands the tendrils to pin their target against the ice mirror they are currently residing in. While performing a sequence of hand-seals, both the tendrils and their victim sink into the mirror. The victim experiences life in the mirror as an endless flat tundra, the only defining mark being the Makyou Hyoushou which he or she was just expelled from. The most dangerous aspect of this jutsu is that the temperature inside the mirror gradually decreases until the person inside is either frozen or dies of hypothermia. If the Makyou Kadoguchi is destroyed before this happens, from either inside or out, the jutsu is canceled and its prisoner is released. | Chakra- 60 | Anyone with an endurance under three is instantly frozen. That number increases by three every post. Two posts after the person inside are frozen, this jutsu becomes permanent and the prisoner can never escape, though he or she is usually dead by then. | Kinjutsu | Demonic Gateway Tendrils must be active.

S-Rank Level Techniques

- Dry Ice Skill [Doraiaisu no Jutsu]
By lowering the temperate of ice low enough, one can remove all water from the ice. The end result is dry ice, and incredibly cold substance that freezes almost anything it comes in contact with. This technique utilizes this property to enhance other ice techniques, or with the water manipulation skill to simply create dry ice. | Chakra- 50 | Damage- 50 | Freezes anything it touches, and is immune to fire jutsu. | S-Rank | Must be used with another jutsu or water manipulation.

- Ritual of Yugithima [Gishiki Yugithima]
The user first creates four Makyou Kadoguchi, one pair on top of the other. Those four then fuse into one large Makyou Kadoguchi. Glowing symbols appear all over the giant Makyou Kadoguchi, which then doubles in thickness. After the giant Makyou Kadoguchi is fully formed (which takes 1 post), the user causes the Makyou Kadoguchi to crack by using the Water Manipulation Technique. Every turn Yugithima will strike the seal from the inside, doing 100 damage. Once 500 damage is done to the seal, it will break, revealing what appears to be a doorway into a vast tundra. Out of this doorway steps a large winged behemoth-Yugithima. At first he is perfectly clear, but slowly he gathers form and reveals his brown self. Connecting Yugithima to the Makyou Kadoguchi from which he came is a nearly invisible "leash." This leash, although itself incorporal, reveals Yugithima's weakness. If the Makyou Kadoguchi that he came out of is destroyed, the avatar Yugithima is using will simply fade away. The giant Makyou Hyoushou is only as strong as four Makyou Kadoguchi put together (80 HP) | Chakra- 300 | Yugithima's avatar has 30 strength and 15 of everything else. It is capable of performing grand slicing wind, hell shriek, and frozen technique each turn. It is also considered to have Water Manipulation; Five. | S-Rank Kinjutsu | Must know Behemoth Clone Summoning
