Senju
Hailing from the Forest Country, the Senju are said to be the true masters of nature and totally in tune with the world around them. Legend has it that the Forest Country was a barren wasteland before a certain monk by the name Senju Kensei began to exert his control over the elements and breathed new life into the region. In his final moments he was caught in a conflict over the lands that he had come to call home against those of the invasive Uchiha and their growing Fire Country. Pierced in the heart, legend further has it that he turned into a great tree the size of which no man could ever fathom. This is why the Senju and the Uchiha have little dealings with each other today and also why the Forest Country and the location of Kensei's remains are closely guarded by his descendants.

Enlightened Suppression - C-Rank Wood Ninjutsu
Using the special qualities of their Natural Energy, a Senju is able to disrupt the flow of an opponent's chakra by introducing a localized burst of that energy into their body that makes it difficult for them to hold together any chakra-based effects that they are currently wielding.
Rank 1: Targets one opponent at -5 Accuracy and chakra binds them. Every 2 seconds that the opponent spends bound by Enlightened Suppression there is an 18% chance that the 'Disruption' effect is activated on them.
Rank 2: Targets one opponent at -4 Accuracy and chakra binds them. Every 2 seconds that the opponent spends bound by Enlightened Suppression there is an 24% chance that the 'Disruption' effect is activated on them.
Rank 3: Targets one opponent at -3 Accuracy and chakra binds them. Every 2 seconds that the opponent spends bound by Enlightened Suppression there is an 30% chance that the 'Disruption' effect is activated on them.
Costs:
Rank 1: 2 AP and 460 Natural Energy + 230 Natural Energy/rnd
Rank 2: 2 AP and 575 Natural Energy + 290 Natural Energy/rnd
Rank 3: 2 AP and 690 Natural Energy + 345 Natural Energy/rnd
Notes:
- This jutsu is a chakra bind, and prevents the victim from using actions that require chakra while active. They may still dodge and move normally.
- Due to the careful concentration required for this jutsu, it is easily disrupted. Should the user attack the victim, the victim take damage, or if the user uses more than 10% of their Max Cp during a round, this bind is dispelled. The victim has a -3 dodge penalty to an attack aimed at them, however.
- The target has a 15% chance of resisting this jutsu for every 2.5 Ap they spend. If successful, this disrupts the jutsu.
- The 'Disruption' effect randomly dispels a single random maintained jutsu active on the victim, and prevents it from being recast for a full round. If a Clone/Creation activates this effect, it is dispersed.
- Requires a Ninjutsu Check each round.

Natural Energy Conversion - C-Rank Wood Ninjutsu
Because of their long standing history of work with Natural Energy each Senju is naturally capable of producing a small amount of Natural Energy on their own but that reserve is usually extremely limited. To combat this Senju Clan members have developed methods over the years to forcibly convert the chakra in their body into Natural Energy in a similar way to the legendary Contract Sages but doing so puts an enormous strain on their body's health.
Rank 1: Converts 5% of the user's current CP into Natural Energy.
Rank 2: Converts 10% of the user's current CP into Natural Energy.
Rank 3: Converts 15% of the user's current CP into Natural Energy.
Costs:
Rank 1: 2 AP and HP equal to half the CP converted into Natural Energy
Rank 2: 2 AP and HP equal to half the CP converted into Natural Energy
Rank 3: 2 AP and HP equal to half the CP converted into Natural Energy
Notes:
- Each time Natural Energy Conversion is used in a single battle the amount of Natural Energy gained is reduced by 25% (Example: If the user has 10,000 CP and Natural Energy Conversion has already been used once then the second time it is used the user's current CP will be reduced by 5%/10%/15% and the user will only gain Natural Energy equal to 75% of the CP lost). This stacks indefinitely.
- If the user has no CP remaining then Natural Energy Conversion cannot be used.

Rank 2: 2.5 AP and 1,000 CP + 500/rnd to maintain

Rank 2: 2.5 AP and 1,090 CP + 545/rnd to maintain
Rank 3: 2.5 AP and 1,305 CP + 650/rnd to maintain
Notes:
- User can only have one wooden structure active at a time.

The ultimate manifestation of a Senju's ability to manipulate their Advanced Element, the Thousand-Handed Statue technique creates an immense statue that is able to be controlled by the user during battle. Some say that the Thousand-Handed Statue technique was created in ancient days to aid in the battle against giant monsters that once roamed the land.
Rank 1: Manifests a tremendous, many-handed statue that has 4,200 + (20% of the user's current Natural Energy) base HP. Each round the Thousand-Handed Statue may engage in one activity (see below) which is determined by the user at the beginning of the round.

All-out Attack: The Thousand-Handed Statue disregards any pretense of defense and goes on the attack. It strikes up to three opponents (as designated by the user when All-out Attack is chosen) for 2,800 damage at +1 Accuracy.
Shielding Hands: The Thousand-Handed Statue defends the user and up to two allies (as designated by the user when Shielding Hands is chosen) creating a "wall of hands" which redirects the first attack to target the user or either of the two protected allies to the Thousand-Handed Statue. The Statue is hit automatically by any attacks which are redirected to it by Shielding Hands.
Restraining Grasp: The Thousand-Handed Statue uses it's hands to restrain a single target at -2 Accuracy which binds them for the round. Any attack directed at an opponent bound by the Thousand-Handed Statue hits the Thousand-Handed Statue automatically rather than the bound opponent.
