Description: A single armoured shoulderguard forged by Zandoran Kiyoshi to protect his dominant arm, the design incorporates a high amount of his own Kazanshin armour produced by his own body. The ore was painstakingly extracted and melted down to provide the raw materials for the item, a process that took many days. As a result of its unique construction it harmonises naturally with Kiyoshi's own volcanic skin, literally growing across his torso and providing an extra layer of stability and defense to the Heart of the Volcano.
Cost: 両700

Kazanshin
// Heart of the Volcano
Description: Before the time they were sent as guardians of the 'first user' of the 'scroll', the Zandoran were a clan of blacksmiths that lived in Mizu no Kuni, a clan that quickly learned that the best way to make weapons was to know exactly how to use them, and who picked up nindo as a result. They lived on an a highly active volcanic island which was off the coast of Mizu no Kuni as it was at the time, and because of their blacksmithing and the fact they had to deal with the heat from being near magma streams if the volcano flowed (Which it did, and often did, at that.) They slowly began to gain a tolerance to heat. As a Zandoran matures, their blood exhibits a unique compound, much like solidified magma that clumps upon their skin in the reaction to active tenketsu. At first it seemed like an unfortunate defect, but with more study it was observed that this ore would regenerate even if destroyed, as long as their chakra flowed.

Can you please indicate what the value of x is?

[Peregine]

Edited.

This is an unusual special in my eyes, and my gut is telling me that 600 is probably the safe value for the effect.

[Peregine]

Locked in at 600.

I'm okay with this costing 600, for this unusual ability.
