The Yamanaka Clan

[Hardcore Skittlez]

"I hereby swear that, as the sixteenth head of the Yamanaka, I will entrust the oath entrusted to me by the fifteenth to the child that will become the seventeenth! In order to protect both the Nara and the Akimichi clans and to protect Konoha, I, Yamanaka Ino, will now defend my territory and my people and as a boar, bear my tusks." – Yamanaka Ino

 
 

 

 The Yamanaka Clan 

Country Of Origin:
 

 Hi No Kuni | The Land Of Fire | 火の国

 

Village Of Residence:

 

 Konohagakure No Sato | The Village Hidden In The Leaves | 木ノ葉隠れの里

 

Clan Progenitor:

 

• Yamanaka Inomoto; The earliest records of the Yamanaka clan history attribute the birth of the clan to a man who was considered the most talented shinobi in the field of intelligence gathering during his time. His talents become the basis for the entire repertoire of Yamanaka clan techniques.

 

Clan Head:
 

• Yamanaka Miyoko; The twenty-ninth head of the Yamanaka clan also serves as the headmistress of the Konoha Shinobi Academy. She tends to be a terse, business-like woman at the best of times, and cranky and no nonsense at the worst. She has a tender spot for children, and her favorite hobby is gardening.

 

Clan Status:

 

• Well-Known; The true fame of the Yamanaka clan is the joint fame attributed to the Yamanaka, Akimichi, and Nara clans as a team. By themselves the Yamanaka are well respected among Konohagakure, and many outside of the village know them as a clan of ninja who are extremely talented in the art of information retrieval.

 

Clan Age:

 

• Old; The Yamanaka clan has existed since before the dawn of the shinobi villages. They sided with the village of Konohagakure shortly after its formation along with the Nara and Akimichi clans.

 Clan Skills:

 

 

Yamanaka Ninjutsu Ace

Availability: Yamanaka Exclusive

Description: The Yamanaka are masters of a very difficult art. Mastering the matters of the brain is a very applied science, one which often requires a good deal of guess work and experimentation. Not always do those experimentations lead to the most perfect theories, but often one that suits the purpose. Those who are not perfect at Genjutsu are not barred from their clans techniques, but they must expend more effort to learn them.

Effect: May not be taken in conjunction with Yamanaka Genjutsu Ace. This skill may not be taken with Sealed Genjutsu or Sealed Ninjutsu. Members of the Yamanaka clan who do not have the necessary Genjutsu statistic may still learn and preform clan hybrid techniques as long as they have double the necessary amount in their Ninjutsu statistic, and could otherwise learn the technique in question. The modifier from Ninjutsu cannot exceed 1.5x the modifier for Genjutsu.

Cost: -1

Cost: -1 

 

Yamanaka Meditation ~ Serene State

Bloodline: Yamanaka Clan Skill

Description: Through intense mental training from childhood, a Yamanaka's mind is intensly organized, and it is not uncommon for one to relax through meditation when in stressful situations. The Yamanakas jutsu and clan secrets all delve into the rescesses of their own minds, so they must have an intricate knowledge of their own thought process.

Effect: User may now purchase two ranks of Inner Calm for one skill point every 10 levels. The skill are immediately added to the character sheet. However, the bonuses are not applied until training has been completed.

Cost: -2

 

Yamanaka Meditation ~ Mental Fortitude

Bloodline: Yamanaka Clan

Desciption: Yamanakas pride themselves on the degree to which they have mastered the discipline of their own minds. Firmly routed in their beliefs, is the fact that before attempting possession, they must have full knowledge of what lies inside themselves. Yamanakas will commonly meditate to learn everything that is within them before going without them. Once such meditation has been mastered, greater heights may be reached, such as the blocking of invading outside forces upon their own mind.

Effect: User of this skill is immune to any attempts at invading or reading their mind. The information stored there cannot be accessed forcefully. This skill does not hinder Yamanaka jutsu used by ninja of a higher rank, nor does it affect the effects of genjutsu in battle.

 Clan Techniques:

 

 

Shintenshin No Jutsu [Mind-Body Transfer Technique] 心転身の術

Type; Ninjutsu/Genjutsu [Clan]

Rank; Gennin

Cost; 60 Chakra + 5% Total Chakra/turn 

Effect; For every turn after the first turn in which this jutsu is in effect, the user must roll a D100. On a roll of:

 

* 40 or less; The technique's effects continues.

* 41-60; The users' turn is sacrificed.

* 61-100; The victim breaks free.

 

While the Jutsu is effective, the opponent loses control of their character, and the user gains control of the opponent's character at the loss of control over their own. While the victim is under the control of this techniqe, the user is able to see the victim's Health, Stamina, and Chakra statistics. The user of this technique, may utilize any techniques that the controlled character had displayed during battle. Any damage sustained by one of the two bodies involved in the usage of this technique is reciprocated to the other body. Should the victim be under the effect of the Kagemane No Jutsu during this techniques activation, then it may not be dodged or avoided. If this technique misses the victim, then the user forfeits their next turn. Each succesful application of this technique on an opponent grants them the benefit of a +5% dodge bonus the next time they attempt to avoid it's effects.

Description: A technique borne with subterfuge in mind, the signature jutsu of the Yamanaka clan is one capable of controlling the actions of the opponents. By releasing their spirit from their own mortal coil, a member of the Yamanaka clan is capable of inhabiting the minds of their opponents, thereby gaining dominance over their victim's body. There are draw backs associated with such an endeavor. By jettisoning one's consciousness, they lose function of their own body. It's standard practice to be surrounded by allies while this technique is in effect. In addition to being effectively helpless, when the Shintenshin No Jutsu happens to miss it's opponent the Yamanaka must spend time traveling back to their own mind.

Restrictions: When used against shinobi of a higher rank, reduce all minimum roll amounts by 10 per respective rank the opponent has over the user. May not be used more than twice per battle at the Genin Rank.

Ishidenshin No Jutsu [Telepathy Technique] いしでんしん

Type; Ninjutsu/Genjutsu [Clan]

Rank; Chuunin

Cost; 70 + 15x/turn (x equals the number of allies effected.) [Maximum of 4 turns]

Effect; The user designates a number of allies on the battlefield. Each of these combatants receives +10% to both Accuracy and Evasion during each turn that this technique is active. While this technique is active the user may not make any offensive actions without ending the effects of this technique. When an attack is directed at the user of Ishidenshin No Jutsu they are allowed to either make their dodge roll per usual, and end the effects of the technique or they may continue the effects and forego their dodge roll. This technique has a cool-down period of two turns before it may be used again after it is used in combat.

Description; A less forceful form of mental connection, the Telepathy Technique allows Yamanaka clansmen to link their consciousness with that of their allies with the purpose of communicating without the needs of speech. Of course, when communicating with non-Yamanaka the user is the only one capable of relaying information to others. This technique requires much concentration, meaning that the user is unable to attack or even defend incoming attacks. This also leaves the user open to watch the battlefield and offer mental advice to those more involved in combat.

Shinranshin No Jutsu [Mind-Body Disturbance Technique] 心乱身の術

Type; Ninjutsu/Genjutsu [Clan]

Rank; Jounin

Cost; 1.5X where x is the cost of the applied Jutsu (See effect)

Damage; 60 (Ghost Dmage) 

Effect; Usable twice per battle. On the turn following the succesful activation of this technique the effected opponent must attack one of his or her allies. (ie; Any other shinobi in combat not allied with the user of this technique) The user of Shinranshin No Jutsu selects a Taijutsu or Ninjutsu technique that has already performed by the opponent during combat, and the victim must perform that technique with an ally as the target. The user must have witnessed the attack performed for it to be applicable. If the opponent has no allies on the battlefield, the technique is still preformed, but it has a 0% chance to hit either the user or the user's allies. The effects of this technique when used on an enemy of Sennin rank act in a special manner. A Sennin has a 50% chance to ignore effects of the technique, and instead attack as per normal. (This grants them a roll to dodge, and a second response phase roll to overcome the attack.) 

Description; The Yamanaka of old claimed that this technique called down a spirit of confusion upon their foe, causing them to attack their own comrades while they watched in horror. The more recent generations of the clan have admitted that the technique is a variation of the Shintenshin No Jutsu, but where the Yamanaka would force their entire being into the opponent, instead only a fragment of their consciousness is required to preform the Shinranshin No Jutsu. The mental effects of this attack have always been rather disturbing as the initial attack causes some damage to the brain, and the aftermath of attacking their allies can be equally traumatizing. This technique has caused many a person to question the morality of the Yamanaka clan for that reason.
