Yamanaka
The Yamanaka are known as the 'Mind Clan', and for good reason; they possess a sharp mentality that not only enables them to cast powerful illusions, but also have the unique ability to project their consciousness outwards to directly manipulate the wills of others. Yamanaka thrive from the sidelines as expert spies and interrogators.

Rank 1/2/3: The user receives +1 Acc/Gen DC and +5% damage per Genjutsu maintained on their opponents. Every 10 seconds, the user may apply one Nightshade Extract affected Injury type poison to 1/2/3 weapons for 0 AP, and this consumes a use of the chosen poison per weapon.
Cost: 0.5 AP

- A different Nightshade Extract affected poison may be chosen for each weapon in a single use.
- Counts either as Chakra or Physical Style. Must be declared upon entering.
Mind Body Disturbance - Will Genjutsu
The unique ability of the Yamanaka Clan, allowing them to project their own consciousness out from the limits of their own body, and attempt to enter the mind of another living being. While excellent at reconnaissance, this skill is risky in a direct confrontation. If the Yamanaka is willing to take the risk, this Genjutsu allows them to lurk within the mind of their target, sharing their senses, and if they so desire, take disrupt their unwitting host.
Rank 1/2/3: Targets an opponent with Genjutsu DC. If successful, the Yamanaka's awareness enters the body of the target with the victim unaware of their presence. The target and user each have -1/2/3 Dodge. 50%/40%/30% of all damage done to the target is also inflicted on the user ignoring the user’s DR. At rank 2 the user is aware of everything the target is aware of (Including targets clones). At Rank 3 the user can now use the Distracting Thoughts special action.
Special Action - Distracting Thoughts: While Mind Body Disturbance affects a target, the user may spend up to 1 Ap to reduce the target’s AP by double the spent AP. Doing this alerts the target to the presence of the user.
Costs: 2 Ap, 300 CP to initiate, 150 CP/rnd.
Notes:
- Upon a full hit, the target is unaware of the user’s presence. On a partial hit, the target is aware.
- If the target is aware of the Mind Body Disturbance they can spend 1 AP to attempt a Genjutsu Check to end the Mind Body Disturbance Technique.
- If the target is aware of the Mind Body Disturbance Technique they receive a stackable +2 Gen Save buff per round to resist this technique.
- The user will always be aware of the target while they are affected by the Mind Body Disturbance Technique.
- This does not take up a Genjutsu Sense Slot, and cannot have it’s number of targets increased through any means.
- This technique may be maintained for a maximum of 30 seconds.
- Requires a 10 second cooldown after use.
- The user may perform Genjutsu and Yamanaka techniques while using Mind Body Disturbance Technique with no penalty, all other actions are used at -3/-2/-1 Accuracy.
- Other Yamanaka are automatically aware if Mind Body Disturbance Technique is used upon them.
- This does not circumvent the AoE rules, and the user can still only take damage once from any source.
True Yamanaka
The True Yamanaka are a branch of Clan Yamanaka that claim to be descendants of the original bloodline founder. The True Yamanaka are noted for their calm, detached behavior, turning their heads at the more down to earth, flowery techniques of their sister bloodline, focusing more on Genjutsu and the power of the mind.

Presence Erase - Passive
The mastery of Genjutsu allows the True Yamanaka to alter perception and memory to mask their presence against those around them. This often takes the form of the True Yamanaka vanishing into a plume of smoke, or simulating some type of Body Switch technique. Unlike Genjutsu this does not require focus on a target, but instead affects any who can currently perceive them.
Rank 1/2/3: The user may apply their current Genjutsu DC bonus to any stealth check at -1/+0/+1.
Notes:
---
- This requires a 10 second cooldown after use.
- Stacks with the user’s stealth bonuses.
Mental Fortress - Passive

Rank 1/2/3: For each Genjutsu affecting an opponent the user gets +1 Genjutsu Save. This caps at +2/+3/+4 Genjutsu Save
---
Mind Possession - Will Genjutsu
The pure expression of the True Yamanaka’s mental capabilities, they are able to take the base Mind Body Disturbance Technique and increase its effectiveness, to the point of overpowering the opponent's mind and controlling them like mental puppets.
Rank 1/2/3: The user attempts to bind the opponent at -3/2/1 Gen DC. If the user successfully binds the target, the following effects occur:
Special Action - Fast Possession If the target is under the effect of the Mind Body Disturbance
- The user takes control of the target and their actions will be performed by the target, not the user, this does not affect/break the bind.
- Damage done to the target also damages the user.
- If the target or user takes 10% Max HP within a round this Technique ends.
- When using actions through the target, the user uses the target's Secondary stats, with the exception of keeping their own Genjutsu DC and Save.
- The user may only perform their own Techniques, but cannot target the user or target.
- Techniques used in this state take their costs from the user and target at a 50% split.
- Techniques used through Mind Possession do not use the target’s AP.

Cost:2.5 AP 610 CP, 305 CP/rnd
Notes:
---
- This is a Full Bind.
- Mind Possession may only be used on a single target regardless of other effects.
- There is a 21% chance to dispel maintained effects per round maintained.
- This can be maintained for a maximum of 15 seconds.
- The target can spend 2 AP to attempt to escape the bind with a 15% chance. This bonus stacks per attempt.
- This does not circumvent the AoE rules, and the user can still only take damage once from any source.
Name of the Rose - Non-Elemental Ninjutsu
A secret ability of the True Yamanaka, allowing them to convert their body into a form of their choosing, created purely out of chakra. In this form, the user's mental capabilities are significantly increased, but it comes at a cost as this form can only be held shortly, and has a significant mental strain.
Rank 1/2/3: The user gains +5%/10%/15% DR and Non-Illusionary Damage is dealt to the user’s CP instead of HP. Any Non-Illusionary Damage the user deals is at -20%/15%/10% damage.
Special action - Meditation: For 1 AP, the user can reduce the maximum maintained duration by 10 seconds to restore 20% of their Max CP. There must be at least 10 seconds remaining for this special action to be used.
Cost: 2.5AP 1100 CP, 550 CP/rnd
Notes:
---
- This is a Chakra Armor Technique.
- This can be maintained for a maximum of 30 seconds.
- The user cannot restore more than their CP at the time of casting this technique.
- If the Mind Possession Technique is used while the user is maintaining Name of the Rose, the user is no longer a valid target. If used this way, when Mind Possession or Name of the Rose ends, the user becomes a valid target again.
Mind Destruction - Will Genjutsu
An advanced usage of their Mind Body Disturbance Technique, in which the True Yamanaka may influence the mind and actions of a target without the need to implant their own consciousness within. Though the control this gives the Yamanaka over their target is weaker in comparison to Mind Body Disturbance, this carries none of the risks associated with that technique. A skilled True Yamanaka may learn to spread this effect to multiple targets, allowing them to turn their enemies against each other.
Rank 1/2/3:Deals 480/600/720 damage to three targets each round. Upon initiation of this Genjutsu the targets are suppressed for 1AP. While affected, victims have -1 Max AP and their actions have a 10%/15%/20% chance of being unable to choose specific targets for attacks they make.
Cost: 3 AP 1490 CP, 740 CP/rnd.
Notes:
- Mind Destruction has priority over any Non-Kinjutsu effects which would allow the victim to retain the capability to choose their targets.
- This can be maintained for a maximum of 30 seconds.
- If unable to choose a target, a roll is made to see who is targeted, a victim may attack themselves.
Ikebana
The Ikebana Yamanaka embrace the botanist side of their bloodline, mastering the infusion of chakra and beauty, for use in stylized Taijutsu, which is as deadly as it is beautiful. Even a simple bouquet of flowers is a dangerous weapon in the hands of an Ikebana Yamanaka.

Weaponized Kadō - Independent Special Move

Rank 1/2/3: The user may apply a [Kado Seed] Augment to their equipped weapon. This [Kado Seed] augment allows Genjutsu Techniques to be used without handseals. This does not take up an augment slot.
Cost: 1 AP and 100 CP
Notes:
----
- The weapon retains the [Kado Seed] Augment even when dropped or unequipped.
