Name: Body Replacement Technique
Rank: E
Activation Cost: 1
Upkeep Cost: 1
Range: Touch
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: N/A
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: Tiger → Boar → Ox → Dog
Description: When utilizing this technique the user applies the transformation technique to an inanimate object in reach— in most cases being a log— to look like the user. This makes the object serve as a dummy to the aggressor. When struck the object will revert back to its original form after two seconds time has passed giving the user the opportunity to strike their stalled opponent, or flee.

The Body Replacement Technique allows the object to perform simple actions and can even react to damage received to make a more convincing illusion, however it cannot move from their location.

Weaknesses: This technique serves as a means to lure in suspicious foe or stall an aggressor. Given its simplicity the technique cannot move or speak limiting its effectiveness as more cunning opponents will often not fall for the bait.

Upkeep Cost: 1
Range: Self
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: N/A
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: Ram → Snake → Tiger
Description: For this technique, the user creates up to four afterimages of themselves to move alongside them. Unlike most other clone techniques, these afterimages have no substance and thus are incapable of damaging opponents. Because of this, it is only useful for confusing enemies while other attacks are prepared. When performing this technique the user assumes any position among the group.
Weaknesses: Opponents can identify clones from their original through careful observation, as clones won't cast shadows, crush grass, kick up dust, etc.

Name: Rope Escape Technique
Rank: E
Activation Cost: 1
Range: Touch
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: N/A
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: N/A
Description: This technique serves as a means to free themselves from any binding they may find themselves, such as vine entanglement or being tied up by a rope. When the user is bound, they do what they can to escape, such as by finding a way to untie the knot or dislocating their joints in order to get free of the bindings.
Weaknesses: This technique can only work on passive bindings, such as inanimate and uncontrolled bindings.

Name: Transformation Technique
Rank: E
Activation Cost: 1
Upkeep Cost: 1
Range: Self
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Ninjutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: N/A
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: Dog → Boar → Ram
Description: This technique is most often used to disguise the user as another person, but they can also turn into an animal, plant, or inanimate object. Users will gain the attributes and physical features of whatever they transform into, such as a weapon's sharpness or an animal's fangs. The quality of the item or appendages cannot exceed D/D.
Weaknesses: The user is limited to transforming into objects no smaller than 1/5 their size. The user cannot transform into items or creatures larger than themselves. This technique requires concentration. When the user suffers from exhaustion (below 30 CP) or receives a substantial blow the technique dispels automatically. A perceptive opponent may detect flaws, such as false smells or an intelligent opponent detecting inaccurate details. Despite taking on the properties of what they transform into the user can still receive damage as normal. This means transforming into a sword and clashing with another sword will result in the technique dispelling and the user getting injured. When taking on a creature's physical features this impacts your overall stat potential (aka no S-tier Strength birds flying through people.)

Name: Five-Seal Barrier
Rank: C
Activation Cost: 10
Upkeep Cost: N/A
Range: 0mi-2mi
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Fuuninjutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: Five Fuuinjutsu tags
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: N/A
Description: This technique creates a barrier around a place by placing four "forbidden" (禁, kin) tags in different locations surrounding the place to be protected, a fifth tag on the location to be protected. The tags are placed on flat surfaces, and are connected with the user's chakra. This technique turns the entire range surrounded by the tags into a barrier space, and inside the space, the material's destruction is "forbidden". Using any kind of physical attack to try and destroy something in the barrier is folly, as it will only lead to injury. To cancel this, it is necessary to search for the four tags and tear them off simultaneously. Even if the tags are removed, there is a final obstacle. The user can add a trap that will create perfect copies of those who have removed the seal, preventing them from returning immediately. Those who have removed the seal must spend two posts fighting their copies before defeating them.
Weaknesses: N/A

Name: Explosive Tag Seal
Rank: C
Activation Cost: 5 [Paid if making the Fuuin on its own]
Range: 0 - 20 m.
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Fuuinjutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: Blank Sealing Paper
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: Snake
Description: The Explosive Tag Seal is a well-known Fuuinjutsu most commonly used to produce explosive tags commonly stored in the marketplace. This technique works by sealing the user's chakra and compressing it (5 CP). When the chakra is released it reacts violently with the environment resulting in a small, but potent blast radius of five meters. There are two ways the explosive can be activated, both costing no chakra:

1.) Igniting the tag with chakra or heat. This results in a slow burn and a four second delay allowing the user to benefit from the delay by throwing them greater distances, how far dependent on the user's method.

2.) Detonating the tag remotely using chakra. To do this, the user must make direct contact with the explosive tag to apply their chakra to the tag. This allows them to detonate the explosive tag remotely with the Snake hand seal. The range on this method is only twenty meters from the user.

Weaknesses: Lit explosive tags can be deactivated by applying chakra to the tag before the seal is burned and the explosion is released.
