Kaguya
A brutal and barbaric clan with its origins tracing into the earliest histories of Kirigakure, the Kaguya are a bloodthirsty people born with an instinct that dictates a love of fighting and war. Their ability reflects their bloodlust, their gruesome power allowing the Kaguya to reshape and grow bones within their body to whichever shape they deem fit. Because of their morbid abilities and bloodlust, it is said that the Kaguya are a clan of demons, each one born as a living weapon destined for a life of violence. It is almost unheard of for a Kaguya to reach an old age and die a natural death, their clan believing that the only suitable death is to die in the midst of combat...among a sea of their slain enemies.

---
Rapid Healing - Passive
The Kaguya's ability constantly punctures and shreds their flesh upon the removal of their bones, and though excruciatingly painful for younger members, the Kaguya naturally begin to shrug off this pain as their body begins to become accustomed to this wear and tear, their skin rapidly repairing any punctures or lacerations they may be afflicted with almost as quickly as they are cut.
Rank 1/2/3: When the user performs any Non-Elemental Technique, they gain 10%/15%/20% of the CP cost as Temporary HP. Whenever the user gains Temporary HP this way, one level of bleeding is removed. Bleeding Ranks removed this way cannot go below Rank 3/2/1.

Ballet of Bones - Bloodline Fighting Style
The Kaguya clan is full of talented and graceful fighters. They have a fighting style that takes advantage of their unique bone manipulation abilities, forming a dance of sorts, moving with the rhythm of the battle.
Rank 1/2/3: When the user enters the style, they gain 1/2/3 Bone Counters, and may choose a Dance. For 0.5 AP, the user may switch to a different Dance, generating 1/2/3 Bone Counters. While in this Chakra style, the user gains +1 Acc/+5% Non-Elemental Damage. While in this Physical style, the user gains +1 Dodge/+5% DR per Bone Counter.
- Bone Tango: Each Offensive Technique the user makes while in this style generates a Bone Counter
- Calcified Defense: Rapid Healing gains +10% per Bone Counter, and if Rapid Healing would exceed 50%, the user will also gain HP equal to the amount over cap. (If the user has 5 bone counters, Rapid Healing would give 50% of the CP cost as Temp HP, and heal the user for 20% of the CP cost)
- Dance of the Larch: For every Bone Counter, 10% of the user's Temporary HP is dealt as additional damage upon Melee Contact. Temporary HP used this way is lost.
- Dance of the Seedling Fern: The user automatically attempts to enter stealth. Each Bone Counter the user has adds +1 Stealth.
- Dance of Clematis: When entering this dance, the user may destroy a weapon created by Dead Bone Pulse. The user selects one of the augments from the destroyed weapon to become a [Calcified Augment]. When the user creates a new weapon using Dead Bone Pulse, this selected [Calcified Augment] applies to the new weapon as a free Augment for a number of offensive actions equal to the user's Bone Counters at the time of creation. (If the user selects the Vampiric Augment to be the [Calcified Augment] and has 4 Bone Counters when creating the new weapon with Dead Bone Pulse, then the new weapon will be treated as though it has the Vampiric Augment for the first 4 Offensive Actions made with this new weapon.)

Notes:
- The user may have a maximum of 5 Bone Counters.
- The user may only enter Dance of the Seedling Fern once per round.
