Inuzuka Clan

Clan: Inuzuka

Location: Konohagakure no Sato

Clan History: The Inuzuka are a small clan that originated in Konoha at the time of the village's founding. The clan itself has never been very large in human numbers; although the dogs packs themselves more then make up for it. The association between the Inuzuka and dogs is older then the clan itself; the early members being nothing more then mercenaries that found the animals to be useful. As the relationship grew, they began to incorporate the aspects of ninjutsu and taijutsu that where beginning to spread through the world at those times. After the centuries of conflict that predated the current age, they found themselves entangled in the bloody showdowns between the Senju and Uchiha; in the end aligning themselves with the more powerful Senju and helping to form Konoha from it's earliest days. After a time, the clan itself began to spread out slowly; a few members here and there would leave the village and move to others; starting new lines in these distant lands. While not the only clan in the world that utilized canines of some species, the Inuzuka are regarded as the most powerful of them, even with the inferior numbers of the main clan.

Kekkei Genkai Jutsu: Name: Imitation Beast Ninja Art: Four Legs Technique [Gijū Ninpō: Shikyaku no Jutsu - 四脚の術]
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Element: /
Range: /
Specialty: Taijutsu
Duration: -5 chakra per post
Cooldown: 2 posts
Description: This technique grants animal-like accelerated fighting instinct and reflexes to the user. By enveloping their entire body in chakra and moving on all fours, they can obtain high speed movement and reflexes like that of a wild animal. Taught only to the members of the Inuzuka clan, this technique forms the basis of a Inuzuka clan member's taijutsu fighting style, and will add even more to their feral-like appearances; their canine teeth, their finger and toenails grow to claw-like length, their eyes also become more wild with their pupils becoming slits. When under the effects of this technique, an Inuzuka will display great feats of physical strength, speed, agility and endurance. The form is best suited for using and supporting the ferocious "hit-and-run" tactics that the clan is well known for, leaving the enemy barely any time to launch a counter attack. While this jutsu is active, the user gains a passive +1 to SPD and REA stats.

Description: The user spins at a ferocious speed and delivers many powerful beast-like attacks when contact is made with the target. The damage it can inflict on a human target can be extremely damaging; and because of the user's spinning and claws residing at the apex of the tornado like cone, it can readily tear through thick tree branches and chakra reinforced earth wall; all of which with a radius thicker than the user itself. In this form, the user is given a +1 stat to SPD, while taking a -1 tier to REA and PER stats due to the nature of this jutsu. Impacts from the user cause 2 inch deep gashes, and are able to crack smaller bones.
