Contract Name: Tatsushiro Tools of the Tsukumogami
Type: Artifact Spirit
Specimen: Artificial Tsukumogami
Culture/Lore: In 936 A.S, when the Græy Family lost their Kekkei Tota, many scrambled to gain power to keep relevant given the rise of the First Shinobi World War. During this time many Græy clan members were killed off to prevent them from ever rising to power, the sheer strength of their now-lost element too great to even risk coming back. One of these members, Vyse Græy, managed to escape this purge due to his appearance not being the standard norm to his bloodline thanks to his connection to the Ryu clan as well as not having the constituent elements due to a heart surgery at a young age, the surgery having allowed him use the advanced element without need of it's constituent elements.
Having taken on the last name of Edelweiss, Vyse turned to crafting within the walls of Kirigakure, but time and time again he found himself stuck with the same issue time and time again; while he was a decent crafter, he would never have the same skill famous crafters like Okane, Damian, and Kara had. As such he turned to a different method: Kuchiyose and Enchantment. By creating tools and weapons that were 'hollow' in a metaphorical form, he found that he could bind the spirits the to his tools to create artificial Tsukumogami. By sidestepping the legend of this kind of Yokai needing 100 years to form, he was able to make tools that had similarities to legendary artifacts (most notably Samehada), but found that using these tools were a hassle given their yokai nature.
These Tsukumogami have no unique culture of their own as they are an artificial creation, though they bear similarities to their creator, seeing one another as a 'family' of sorts, with their summoners as their boss and Vyse as the progenitor.
Given that all that is needed is an object, the Tsukumogami Tools's appearances can range from something as simple as an umbrella or longsword to as strange as a washing machine or discarded ramen cup. However all Tsukumogami the notable traits of having an eye, a mouth, and at least 1 limb; though locating said limbs are easier said then done.
Designated Element: Katon (Fire) | Suiton (Water)
Designated Skill: N/A
Summoning Method: There are 2 different summoning meathods one can use to summon a Tsukumogami though the contract:
➤The normal summoning method of the user's blood placed on a surface.
➤Using a variant of the Unsealing Technique (no CP needed) and reach into an area where no one is looking at, such as the inside of a pouch, and 'pull out' a single Tsukumogami summon. The area must be of sufficient size to pull out said item through the opening, usually limiting it to smaller or thin summons.
Requirements: The user must have signed the summoning contract, and once signed the user gains a trait where some part of their body glows like uranium glass; a residual trait from the Græys that managed to sneak into the contract. Normally it's the eyes, however horns, hair, nails, and teeth are also possible recipients to this glowing effect. Whenever a Tsukumogami summon is out, the glowing gets stronger; the stronger the summon the stronger the glow.
Exclusive Perks/Drawbacks:
Artificial Spirit
➤As these summons are weapons and/or tools, they may be used for Weapon techniques if they are the appropriate tool or weapon, with their Strength acting as Quality and Constitution acting as Hardness. Note that the the Eye, Mouth and Limb(s) do not share this perk.
Half-Life Helpers
➤Having been make to be wielded, Tsukumogami can 'grant' the wielder 1-handed sealing by using their body as a substitute for 1 of the 2 hands. During this time the Tsukumogami is unable to use jutsu and they glow according to the color of the jutsu's element being used.
