Inuzuka- Canine Mimicry

[Wolfy]

The Inuzuka Clan hails from the Hidden Leaf Village and is renown world-wide for their use of canines as fighting companions. The clansmen are highly fond of man's best friend, the canine, and treat them as if they were bound together by blood. This emphasizes the common allusion that the Inuzuka Clan is regarded as the House of Dogs. Clansmen are given their own canine partner once they come of age; an honor within the clan that signifies that the next generation is worthy enough to uphold the future of the clan name. Thereafter, the clan member and their companion(s) become inseparable. Unbreakable bonds of friendship and love are formed through this companionship to a point at which either party would die to save the other.

Inuzuka Clan members are distinguished by distinctive red colored fang markings on their cheeks as a representation of their connection to canines, as well as animalistic eyes and larger canine teeth. It would seem that the bond established between an Inuzuka and their canine partner(s) has allowed for their chakras to combine, transforming the clansman into a more feral-like state. Both companion and owner move as one on the battlefield, assisting each other perfectly with only the slightest communication between one another. Clan members are known to combine Hidden Techniques with their animal companions, creating a deadly collaboration of offensive Taijutsu. With heightened senses as well, one can never hide from an Inuzuka tracker.

To conclude, the members of the Inuzuka Clan should never be underestimated.

Restrictions

[/b][/font] Inuzuka are only available as Taijutsu Classes or JOAT.

2. Inuzuka can only possess Canine-based Summoning Families.

3. It should be noted that Inuzuka possess the ability to hear and smell with efficiency roughly equal to that of a canine (not exactly a canine's level, but very close). This should be remembered.

4. All ninken possess their own chakra pools of exactly one massive. Techniques carried out by them are deducted from their pools, not their owner's. Like all things that possess chakra, should a ninken's chakra reserve reach zero, they will die. A ninken's pool increases by x2 High for every additional Massive its owner earns.

5. Inuzuka start with a single (1) canine partner using the beast template from Monster Tamer. They also start with Monster Tamer's Basic Tracking, Advanced Common Tracking, Basic Taming and Advanced Mammal Taming. Also the Inuzuka may teach their canines clan techniques and melee Taijutsu (not nintaijutsu), although the Inuzuka must use their EXP and is recoverable upon character death.

6. All Inuzuka automatically gain Monster Tamer as a Profession in order to add to their pack. However they may only tame canine based creatures and benefit from having their 'pack' requirement dropped to 1000 per canine.

MASTERY

[/b] With increased training comes increased abilities. The heightened senses of the Inuzuka clan member are increased twofold, allowing them to hear things others simply cannot - such as someone standing on the opposite end of the room whispering, or someone's heartbeat - when they focus (by focusing, this means tuning out all other senses and remaining still). Unfocused, this ability still gives them a clarity others do not possess, allowing them to react faster and better than you average shinobi via a combined effort of smell and hearing. This allows for some of the greatest trackers of the shinobi world to easily locate their prey from a further distance.


-Tier Two — The Beta: This further development along the learning curve of the Inuzuka Clan allows for clansmen to unlock new potential abilities. With this tier, the user can extend the duration of their Jinjū Konbi Henge: Sōtōrō (Human Beast Combination Transformation: Double-Headed Wolf) and Jinjuu Kongou Henge: Santourou (Human Beast Mixture Transformation: Three-Headed Wolf) by two turns. An added benefit to becoming the beta of the pack is that the user's Tsuuga is even more resistant to taijutsu and ninjusu based assaults. 


-Tier Three — The Alpha: At the final stages of the learning curve, the Inuzuka clan member has shown their dominance and worthiness to be given the title of Alpha. Through this recognition, chakra costs for all Inuzuka techniques are lowered by one tier. The alpha of the pack is also renown for their ability to command and dominate over others. With this being said, the Inuzuka clan member will also have access to the special ability: Osakebi (War cry).

[/u] their capabilities, and those of any other nearby clan members, Osakebi allows a unit of Inuzuka to hastily overwhelm their enemy with a relentless barrage of bone-shattering, flesh shredding assaults before they even realize what's happened. It is said this technique is the reasons Inuzuka are revered as some of the strongest cells in the world, namely due to the fact that they are all effected even if only one member puts this technique into play.

Note: This technique effectively doubles the offensive, defensive, and supplementary capabilities of all Inuzuka and their Ninken within a sixty meter range (this is only applied to Inuzuka based jutsu). This technique can only be used once per thread, and lasts for a duration of five turns. It should be noted that while War Cry is active, the chakra reduction of the Inuzuka's Tier 3 mastery is not in effect. This applies to any and all Inuzuka benefiting from War Cry, regardless of if they were the user to cast it or not.[/ul][/font][/div]
