Free Kumo Skill

[cntrstrk14]

Kumogakure no Sato's isolation in the far northern reaches means

that it often must look within itself for strength. No matter the calling,

ninja from this village will always have the tools for the job. 

 

 

Characters who start in Kumogakure get to choose

-one- of the following skills to learn for free.

( Ignore requirements if the skill has them )

 

Subtle Elements; Lightning
Effect: May use Lightning element techniques. All Lightning techniques have a +8% chance to hit. This bonus is halved for Concentration based attacks. All 5 'Subtle Element' skills share ranks, however each skill may only be taken once.
Cost: ⁿ/ₐ

Combinatorial; Cloud
Effect: May use Cloud Element techniques. When a Cloud element technique is used, the user may subtract 20-x from their Speed Percentile, where the value of x is the character's level divided by 6, rounded up; the subtraction applied through this effect may never be less than 4. This effect may not be applied more than once per turn. In addition, the user may choose to apply the bonus from one of the Subtle Elements skills required to learn this element if they own it.

Requirements: Subtle Elements; Water & Wind
Cost: ⁿ/ₐ
 
Momentum Style
Mass when coupled with velocity not only creates a field of science, but also defines the basics of hand to hand combat. The Momentum Style exploits this scientific certainty in order to deal the most devastating attacks possible to its enemies. Every movement of their style allows them to speed up the movement of their bodies through the help of centripetal force and fluid movement. However, if at any point the user begins to slow or stutter in their pattern they will notice an immediate detriment to their effectiveness. Because of this, Momentum Style users rely on combinations of techniques, usually ending in a devastating crash of building force against their opponent.
Effect: Momentum Charges reward the user bonuses based on the amount of charges that they currently have. However, there is also a risk of taking additional damage if they are hit at higher speeds. A user may, during their setup phase, lose as many Momentum Charges as they want as a free action. As well, any turn that the user does not use at least one Momentum Style technique they lose a Momentum Charge.
0 Charges: No bonus.
1 Charge: The user gains +3% of their base speed, all damage dealt to them is increased by 2%.
2 Charges: The user gains +6% of their base speed, all damage dealt to them is increased by 4%.
3 Charges: The user gains +9% of their base speed, all damage dealt to them is increased by 6%.
4 Charges: The user gains +12% of their base speed, all damage dealt to them is increased by 8%.
5 Charges: The user gains +15% of their base speed, all damage dealt to them is increased by 10%.
Additionally, the user may perform a technique that requires the use of Momentum Charges.
Requirements: Kumogakure Ninja or 5 post training session with a ninja who already knows this skill.
Cost: ⁿ/ₐ
