___I l l u s i o n s Overview tab A phantom at the edge of perception. A sudden movement beyond your control. Whispers skittering across your skull, leaving you uncertain if the sound came from without, or from within. Illusion is said to be the art of ensnaring the senses, forcing others to perceive what you want them to. Others believe it is the study of redefining what Creation decided when it put pen to paper. The truth lies somewhere in between. tab Illusion relies on six senses instead of the normal five found in traditional media and lore. These basic senses are Sight, Sound, Scent, Taste, Touch, and Mana, and by proxy the hundreds of minor ones that branch from these six. What defines an Illusionist is how they go about manipulating these six, giving rise to the four types of Illusions that exist within the Shattered Past. Their rules and definitions are below:
_____________Definitions
• Triggers tab → Described as the senses, or actions, required for an Illusion to be initialized or function. An example is that a Illusion creates a mist, and the effect of the Illusion only takes place when someone inhales that mist. Another example is if an Illusion requires the trigger of someone raising their right hand and pointing their middle finger at the sky, "giving the bird", and someone has to physically see it. • Senses tab → The Senses, often utilized with a capital, refer to the basic six senses all living creatures have access to, and the myriad of other species-specific senses. The most basic six are Sight, Sound, Scent, Taste, Touch, and Mana, while the extended list may include such senses as equilibrioception, thermoception, hunger, nociception, and so on. As these are the foundations with which all living creatures experience the world, it is these that Illusion interact with to alter the perceptions, and beliefs, of the individual. What each Sense is, and how they are affected, are written in their own entries below. As universal senses, the basic six are considered to be foundation of all other senses experienced. • Universal Sense :: Sight tab → The Universal Sense of Sight is, for Illusions, one of the most utilized of Senses. In short, this Sense encompasses what your eyes alone perceive. For someone who is Blind the eyes still count as a source of attack, as one's Mana can be forced into allowing visual illusions, such as "seeing" the world. Given that such things might never have been seen before it can be distracting. This sense, in simply terms, represents what one sees. • Universal Sense :: Sound tab → Audio is one of the largest used senses of the Shinobi world as a trigger, often at subvocal levels so as to illicit a response from the subconscious, or id (instinct). As such, the Sense of Sound is utilized often between these two forms: Audible, and Sub audible. With the former, the Illusion creates sounds and sound effects to disorient or convince the listener of a particular event. With Sub audible, the target is not truly the victim's ears, but their brain. In these cases the user is often not aware of the change, and as such these techniques tend to be used for Enchantment type Illusion almost exclusively • Universal Sense :: Scent tab → The Sense of Scent is regarded as one of the most useful against those with animal senses or animals themselves. The Sense of Scent is quite literally just as it sounds: what the victim smells. Illusion can utilize this scent to illicit physical responses of disgust or desire, and can even be utilized to effect behavior through use similar to the manner of pheromones. As such, it is one of the more versatile Senses, with those of enhanced senses being particularly weak against it. • Universal Sense :: Taste tab → The Sense of Taste is not often utilized, at least by itself. This Sense is often tied into the Sense of Scent, as the two coincide quite naturally. Often the Sense of Taste is utilized to accentuate a Scent, often replacing it, yet it, too, can be used as a method of overruling another taste one might have. An example would be to make a sword taste like cake. Making the cake, in fact, a lie. • Universal Sense :: Touch tab → The key component to Fixed typed Illusion, the Sense of Touch is the feeling a target receives when physically coming in contact with an Illusion. This can range in strength from being able to stand upon the Illusion in midair, to obtaining physical damage from the Illusion itself. Whilst how temporary or permanent these injuries or effects are depends entirely on the Type of the Illusion, the short of this description is that this Sense deals exclusively with what the body physically experiences upon contact with the Illusion. • Universal Sense :: Mana tab → A relatively unknown, or rather, unnamed Sense that many have written off as a mythical "Sixth Sense", the Sense of Mana is the detection of another living entity through abstract experience. Feeling eyes on the back of one's head, feeling that one is being watched, are just two among many descriptions for the Sense of Mana. Any Illusion that directly afflicts specific emotional states of mind is considered attacking the Mana Sense of another. This Sense is what Sensor type shinobi, and Sennin, utilize when reaching outwards to detect, or Sense, Mana. While the control, or manipulation, of this Sense is often the purpose of Illusion targeting it, it should be noted that not utilizing it can be just as effective if done properly. • Source tab → The Source of a technique details, specifically, what requirements must be met for the technique to work, how the technique effects the individual, and so on. An example would be Phantasm, which means it is an fake sense being generated. Audio Phantasm is generating a fake sound with Illusion. "Original" Source means the technique's use is the same as Canon, requiring the user to invade the target with their mana and altering the flow of mana to their brain to cause the Illusion to occur. If ever in doubt, please contact the Approval or Battle Moderation Committees.
_____________Rules // Regulations
• Foundation of Senses tab → This is a foundation guide for senses. At no time may more than six [6] senses be under the effect of a Illusion. The foundation allows up to three [3] senses to be targeted at any one time, with Discipline and/or Personal Attribute choices allowing up to the maximum of five [5] senses. A good way of looking at it would be to say that the average Illusionist who has not invested time, or selections, into increasing their Illusion would be allowed to affect three [3] senses at max. Whereas if someone has specialized in Illusion, the max they could affect would be five [5] senses. At any time that two [2] techniques are utilized upon an opponent that affect the same sense, that sense will be affected by the higher ranked technique's rank. i.e. if utilizing an A-ranked technique that affects sight and sound, and a C-ranked Illusion that affects scent and sound, the sense of sound would be affected with an A-ranked amount of strength. As such, both techniques would work, but one would need to pay the A-ranked cost to break through both technique at once, as the mana, again, does not stack. • Sensory Primaries and Secondaries tab → Every Illusion has a Primary and Secondary set of Senses it affects. A Primary Sense for a technique is the Sense the technique most focuses on effecting. This Primary sense sets the Strength and Kai requirement, while the Secondaries refer to which other Senses the jutsu targets. If a Shinobi has an increase to a Secondary Sense, it does not effect the overall Kai rank, only that particular Sense's "realness". • Source tab → Illusionist spells, once upon a time, wer about injecting mana into your opponent and manipulating their mana to create this illusion within their mind. This is no longer always the case. Each Type of Illusion utilizes a different "Source" for their effects, whether it is collective belief, a targeted siphon, or the aforementioned method of entry. See "Source" listed under each spell, and in the absence of such a listing assume the original method of Source. See, too, the definitions above for more explanation. • Base Duration // Upkeep tab → Every technique has a base duration and upkeep listed, whether or not the answer would be zero [0] or a written answer. Every technique lasts at least one post, with the Base being how long the effect lasts until its effect fades. However, if an Upkeep cost is listed, the technique can be extended past its original Base by paying the cost per post of continued usage. This Upkeep can be utilized before the Base, meaning the technique will last it's Base duration after the Illusionist has ceased paying the upkeep cost, or after, in which case the effect ends as soon as the upkeep cost is paid, but granting no upkeep during the beginning of its usage. It should be noted that an Upkeep takes up an Activation every post it is maintained, allowing at most, without any outside factors being considered, three [3] Upkeeps at any one time. • Reality tab → Illusion is the art of bending the senses to believe a fiction is real. Due to this, a technique is considered 'real' until one Releases out of it, or somehow frees themselves from the influence of the technique. Besides the Release spell other methods of breaking exist, and will frequently be referenced within the description of the technique itself. Depending on the Type of Illusion, the injury may, or may not, leave physical effects upon the ending of the technique. • Auto-knowing tab → This rule recognizes the relative flaw in all things Role Play where stats, and dice rolls, are not utilized as a savings throw method. The use of Illusion in combat or in the role play in general comes with an unspoken contract to not auto-know that one is being effected by one, as to do so would be an impossibility without specific rules being utilized from in character additions, such as technique, Personal Attributes, or disciplines. Even previous knowledge, or personal knowledge of the technique being utilized does not guarantee an automatic knowledge of one's condition. To help stop this rule from being abused on both sides of the fence, the ability of a Illusion to be detected can be inferred from the description written by the Illusion user, meaning the more description and realness created with one's words during use the more difficult a victim may find it to recognize their situation, while the inverse also remains true. Please keep in mind that this means using several illusions at once, keeping up with constantly weaving new aspects and description into them. If at any time you feel like someone is not giving due attention to this, whether from the caster's side or the victim's, please contact a member of Battle Moderation. • Increasing of Illusion Strength tab This refers to the Illusion parallel to Physical Stats within the physical fighting methods of combat. Instead of Strength, Speed, and Cost ranks, Illusions utilize the six Senses and making them more "real". Spells or abilities that directly impact if a sense is more or less real, or one's perception with that sense is increased or decreased, will directly impact just how effective this illusions are.. One Illusionist might invest themselves into making their Sight based Illusion ungodly difficult to recognize as fake, while another might invest time and energy into making the Scent and Taste based Illusion that much harder to recognize as false than others. This is an important distinction for Passive and Discipline benefits. An example of a physical increase that would impact Illusion realness would be with Trackers, with some spells utilizing their increased Senses to trick them that much easier. • When in Doubt tab → If ever in doubt of how a Illusion works, or what its description means, do not hesitate to contact a Moderator. We exist to ensure that the guild maintains a fun and welcoming atmosphere, and this cannot be done if one remains silent. Do not hesitate to use this resource. • Trust Clause tab → The limitations of Illusion are difficult to completely define without the use of dice and other chance systems. As such, there is a level of trust to be given with these techniques and system, and the primary concern of any user of Illusion is to the fun, and balanced play of this guild. As such, if am illusionist's opponent, or themselves, believe foul play is underfoot or an abuse of the systems true lack of definition for personal gain or the intent to 'prove a point', the infraction will be brought before a collective council of Moderators to decide a proper punishment, with the infraction falling under "God-moding" as far as punishments and severity go. If the situation is, in fact, not-intentional, the severity of the infraction will be lowered to an appropriate level, and the moderators will be required to work with both sides to ensure fair and balanced play. To clarify, just because one can abuse a system does not mean one should. • Fictitious Summoning tab → A very common and well known tactic for Illusionists no matter the source material, summoning an enormous monster, or millions of forces, is an effective, but powerful, tool to any user. In the interest of role play fairness a limit has been created for this very purpose. No matter the size of the creation, or the number within that one illusion, the technique can only ever deal out damage and strength on par with that of technique's rank. I.e. if an Illusionist were to create ten thousand samurai with a spell that bears a Rank of A the ten thousand samurai can only deal, collectively, A - rank in damage. This means that individually the illusions do little, if any, damage at all. • Lasting Harm tab → Lasting physical injury isn't something Illusions are normally known for, with many source materials painting such things as inconsequential once the reality of the Illusion is discerned. In Shattered Past we approach this differently. With Conjuration type Illusions harm is especially possible, but with the advent of Corruption and Afflictions more can be done. Corruption provides physical, spiritual, and mental damage to those so affected, with Afflictions, mental or spiritual trauma caused by Illusions, worsening in its condition. As such to know the full scope of the damage capabilities for an Illusion please see the description of the spell and research the Affliction or Corruption effects that are generated by their specific use.
_____________Types of Illusions
• Enchantment tab → The Illusion are ones used to alter the consciousness or emotions of another. While the more common uses are the Voice techniques, more complicated techniques trick the mind into allowing the body to feel differently, this way surpassing normal, natural, and safe limiters. In a sense, these techniques could be seen as manipulative, or "buffing" and "debuffing", forcing the mind and body to react in specific ways. An example of such is a Illusion that turns the target into a berserker, someone that ignores all pain and damage and keeps coming past the point where most would die, let alone give up. • Illusory tab → These Illusion are the type more often employed by street performers or grand illusionists, creating imagery that is separate from the mind of an individual and are similar in many ways to holograms. Unlike Conjuration Illusions these illusions are not real, meaning that any harm obtained in the duration of the technique would fade once the illusion itself is Released. What many would consider a "standard" Illusion would fall into this category. • Instance tab → Basically cantrips, they last one post for low cost. These cantrips are more often employed to lead up to bigger illusions, helping them seem more real, thus making it more difficult for people to have a reason to view them as false. An example of this is having the scent of rotten flesh. Low cast, you can cast two per one activation, and they last scant seconds. You catch a whiff, it vanished. A few minutes later another whiff, different direction. It slowly builds up, until suddenly the mist parts and undead are coming for you. Because you smelled all of that over time, you're more inclined to believe the illusion is real. • Chain tab → Chain techniques are disciplines and Talents that augment, in some way, another illusion or spell being used by the Illusionist. An example of this would be causing the next Illusion chained with it to Afflict the target with a creeping Depression. These spells can alsp add strengthening or weakening effects to Illusion that may either act outside of the original purpose of the spell, such as an Enchantment causing the enchanted to leak Mana at an increased rate, or come in line with it, such as causing a visual eruption of light to suddenly cause a form of ringing within the ears. These can serve as supplementary effects to increase or decrease durations or strengths of particular Senses being assaulted. • Conjuration tab → A powerful, rare, and often misused type of Illusion, Conjuration utilizes the fundamentals of Corruption to infuse their illusions with pseudo-life. Stripped of their elemental properties, but infused with Corruption and Mana combined, Conjuration illusions are able to leave lasting physical harm upon those they interact with. While this may sounds like an easy way to do lasting harm, the strength of the spell that forged them is dispersed across the entirety of the illusion. As such care must be taken when creating too complicated of an illusion, something too large in scale, lest the lie of the illusion be given away. As noted previously, Conjuration Illusions cannot carry elemental properties, so even fire would do mostly harm mostly through physical force, and not through an endothermic reaction with the affected. A successful casting of Release will effect the Illusion the same as any other, causing it to disperse immediately. Due to the above restrictions each Conjuration spell has rules to follow, and often carry secondary effects that should be paid attention to with care.
_____________Base Duration / Upkeep Costs
The normal length, in posts, of a Illusion, applicable usually to only high ranking Illusions. This number dictates how long a Illusion is active unless it is released prior to the end length, or broken in some manner. Those without an explicit duration are able to be maintained unless it is released or broken in some manner. For convenience, durations of 1 post or less are considered as 'instance' jutsus and do not need to have concentration maintained after the initial casting.
_____________Helpful Hints
What limb can be easily overcome if used to escape? Can you deal with having an annoying Illusion active, to save yourself the mana cost, pain, or having another take its place? Pay attention to the descriptions of the illusions. See if there is a glaringly obvious mistake, something missing or misused that might give a hint that not all is right.

[Illusory Techniques]
[Insert art here with type name]
______________________________________[ E - Ranked Techniques ] • Kumo Monokage no Jutsu [ Cloud Cover Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: This Jutsu involves the simple creation of a small illusionary cloud, about 1 post-foot in diameter, that has to stay on the ground. Its true purpose is to conceal something that might be hidden in a particular spot, such as a sharp rock, or a small hole.
• Etainoshirenai no Fugou [ Mark of the Unfamiliar ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Until Physical Contact is Made // 5 Chakra →→Source: Hologram →→Description: Another fundamental Jutsu, this one changes a person’s writing, mark, or even an inscription to that of another. By doing this, simple directions can be misread or pathways can be changed. It is all up to the discretion of the person reading the sign, though, since merely touching the word or mark in question can easily break the spell.
• Dokuji no Kaori [ Scent of Peculiar ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Scent // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Scent-based Phantasm →→Description: This Jutsu makes use of the sense of smell. It has been known for ages past that there are certain scents that excite different emotions. Scents in the area can make something as simple as dust smell endearing, or make crushed leaves give off a toxic aroma. By this, both traps and warnings can be made of simple objects, not to mention the handy note of covering up one's tracks.
• Nirami no Kage [ Shadow Glare ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Visual Phantasm →→Description: Manipulating what a shadow looks like is no large feat for the Shinobi of the Leaf. But at this most basic level, they are only able to increase the depth by which a person might perceive a shadow. For example, a shadow can either be lengthened or shortened, giving off the impression that a person is closer or father. When used in large expanses with abundant shade, this Jutsu can prove quite worrisome.
• Hada no Kamereon [ Chameleon Skin ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Visual Phantasm →→Description: Forming Chakra in the area around them, the user creates a basic Genjutsu whose purpose is to help blend their body in with whatever surroundings are available. The illusion is not perfect however and higher ranked Shinobi are far more adept in seeing through the Genjutsu.
• Kaiteki Uta [ Comfort Song ] →→Rank: X - rank // Learned as E -rank →→P/S. Sense: Sound // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Requires an Instument →→Description: By playing an instrument, a calming aura fills the space and calms the emotions of all within save the user. Requires an instrument, and does not differentiate between friend and foe.
• Kowaikao no Jutsu [ Scary Face Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Visual Phantasm →→Description: The user covers their face by some means for a few moments, and when they reveal themselves their face turns into a grotesque being.
• Saikederikku [ Psychedelic ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Visual Phantasm →→Description: The colors of the world around the opponent appear to change randomly. Patterns and pallet are decided by the user at time of casting.
______________________________________[ D - Ranked Techniques ]
• Kumo Bunshin no Jutsu [ Cloud Clone Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Clone →→Description: The user creates a Genjutsu-based replication of himself, although assuming the speed of a user (if not faster sometimes) this clone is unable to attack an opponent as it is not a physical replication. In return however, instead of the Bunshin dissipating when hit like a standard Bunshin, the attack goes through the clone, at the most causing it to separate and then recombine. Can eventually cause overexertion of the target. E-rank chakra required for each recombination. Does not require handsigns but costs a D-rank chakra to use without seals and a D-rank for each recombination if used this way.
• Tendou no Ashi no Jutsu [ Cherub's Foot Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: Considered one of the more auspicious moves in the repertoire of a Cloud Genjutsu specialist. After performing a couple of seals while maintaining eye contact with the target, the target will see a giant foot of cloud descending from the skies to step on him. Generally the entire concept of a foot about to descend on the Shinobi is enough to make him disturb any particular action he had planned and instead he braces himself for the giant foot to crush him. However the moment the foot is about to touch the target it immediately dissipates into nothingness, leaving the target confused and open to attack.
• Chouba no Kage [ Shadow Taunt ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 5 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: In this Jutsu, the user visually manipulates a shadow into taking another form aside from the one it actually is. For example, what was once the shadow of a short male can be shaped into that of a voluptuous woman. This technique, however, is fairly easy to see through since it cannot really be used on a shadow that a person is currently looking at.
• Dokuji no Gisou [ Camouflage of the Peculiar ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: Taking in natural components to their attire (leaves, twigs, dirt, mud, etc.) a person is able to lie still or move in an area of similar settings and remain completely impervious to detection. By strewing together Chakra and a visual illusion, whatever the user takes onto their clothes bind to them and become a literal part of their appearance, changing it to suit the environment. Simply touching the user will cancel this Jutsu, though.
• Mirage Minora →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // [iSound] →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm // Requires long stretch of similar terrain for full effect →→Description: In this genjutsu, the victim has the impression to cross an area over and over again while in reality, it does not move at all. Once noticed, the technique can be easily dispelled. Sustains itself within the targets, by drawing the same rank of chakra from them, until dispelled. The target is unaware of this process.
• Suna Arashi no Shinto [ Deadly Sand Storm ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 5 Chakra →→Source: →→Description: A simple Jutsu, but an effective one in the right hands. Originally created as a technique for pranks, the user forces the target of the technique to see and feel a small focused sandstorm. The sandstorms varies in severity based on the users intelligence, and the sandstorm can even carry with it additional objects to cause the target concern such as scorpions or small weapons.
• Ussou Kabe [ Impenetrable Wall ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 5 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: An unusual Genjutsu, but a useful one in the right hands. When an opponent is advancing directly towards the user, the user forms a single seal and then stretches their hand outwards in the direction of their attacker. A wall appears, the dimensions, materials, and appearance of which is determined by the caster. The wall itself has substance to those who witness it, though a Kai will allow the technique to become translucent to the eyes of the victim alone, allowing safe passage through. Objects or techniques striking it will seem to be absorbed or resisted by the wall, though in reality they continue through it unabated.
• Mimiuchi no Jutsu [ Whisper Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sound // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Audial Phantasm →→Description: Upon the casting of the technique, the user is able to generate whispers anywhere within the field of battle, no more than twenty [20] yards per rank of the user away in radius. These whispers can be of any audio, whether voice or quiet movement, but no matter the choice always comes out as a low noise, at the loudest of a whisper in an empty room. Whilst this normally would be an Enchantment technique, the truth is that in each case a small, invisible mouth is produced to allow the speaking to occur. →→Synchronization: If using Chouba no Kage and Dokuji no Onsei together, one upkeep activation will count for both techniques.
• Kasumi Juusha no Jutsu [ Mist Servant Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 5 Chakra →→Source: →→Description: Kasumi Juusha no Jutsu is a Genjutsu techinque that creates false attackers to delay and confuse the enemy. Though these servants are not real, the actual Shinobi is able to remain hidden and throw Kunai and shuriken matching the movements of the servants. This makes it appear the false servants are capable of attacking. When the enemy attempts to attack the servant, they will merely disrupt the servant’s illusion body but not destroy it.
• Henka no Kumoyuki [ Change of Weather ] →→Rank: D → S+ - rank →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Secondary Sense of Choice →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 6 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: The user can change the weather to anything they prefer for the target to suffer through. This is a small genjutsu, and is limited to minor changes to the environment. Retraining this jutsu to higher levels takes up more genjutsu slots, 1 slot per retraining, due to its wide ranging abilities. The maximum, S+ - ranked, is 5 re-trainings, to which this jutsu will take an additional 5 genjutsu slots. Increase of technique rank raises the area of effect [100 Yards at D - rank, gaining 200 Yards per rank after], as well as the realism of the technique itself. The base duration of the technique is decreased by one [1] per rank of the slot utilized, reflecting the increase in power.
______________________________________[ C - Ranked Techniques ]
• Denkou Hachidori no Jutsu [ Electric Hummingbirds Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sound, Sight →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: The humming of hummingbirds fill the air and while it does, a large amount of hummingbirds fly from within the thunderclouds and home in on the target(s). Once hitting the target, the feeling that something is drilling into their affected area is felt, causing great pain.
• Ushi-Oni Kakekomi [ Ushi-Oni Stampede ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm // Can be ended early →→Description: The caster appears to unleash a stampede of Ushi-Oni by opening the gates of hell. As a summoning, the creature can do no more than C - rank effect of damage. The imagery is to the user’s design.
• Fukyuu no Jutsu [ Immortality Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Scent, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 5 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: This simple skill make it so no matter how much the opponent damages the user, the user will not show any sign of injury. It will hide limping or any other sign that something is wrong, even the smell and sound of blood dripping. The Genjutsu will only affect those who were in the immediate area when the Genjutsu was used, those whom the user wishes and those who are just arriving are not affected.
• Hitoshirenu Shikaku no Jutsu [ Hidden Assassin Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Meeting of the Eyes →→Description: Upon casting this Genjutsu, the user seems to vanish in a puff of clouds. The user is actually still standing right where they were before, but the target cannot see them. However, an illusionary version of the user appears behind the target and rushes straight at the target with unbelievable speed, piercing the target’s heart with a Kunai.
• Keizokuteki Enmu no Jutsu [ Continuous Fog Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Taste →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Clone →→Description: An offshoot version of the original Cloud Clone Technique, this is generally used to cause a diversion, giving the user time to run away. The user creates the usual clone, but adds on the 'Taju' handseal at the end, causing the clone to have additional effects. Spouting off into many copies, these clones have the same capability as the previous Cloud Clones do. However, when a Clone is hit instead of going through the clone, like it normally does in the technique, the clone instead explodes into a spread of smoke-like fog that becomes denser, stronger, and harder to dispel with every clone that is hit.
• Chiri Magai Bunshin no Jutsu [ Dust Imitation Clone Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Scent, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm // Original →→Description: This Genjutsu allows the user to create a Bunshin which, to the opponent, is a loved one. The user does not know who it is the opponent views, for it appears different to each opponent, but he can make the Bunshin interact with the opponent. To the user, the clone simply looks like a mannequin, featureless and pale. This relation is always a dear person, making it, especially at first, difficult to pass off as anything but real. While only one bunshin may exist of this type at a time, the fact that each opponent sees it as their own loved one makes up for needing multiple.
• Doro no Gekiryuu [ Raging Rapids of Mud ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Taste, Sight →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Triggered Trap // Area of Effect [50 Yards // Rank] →→Description: Similar to Jisuberi no Jutsu, the user can cause the opponent to see, hear, and feel a huge river of mud come crashing forward at a high velocity. This confuses, distracts, and, if the “river” hits the opponent, cause the body to believe it is drowning and being hit by mud from all sides.
• Iwahara no Jutsu [ Rock Plain Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Smell, Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 15 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm // Area of Effect [50 Yards // Rank] →→Description: A Genjutsu that is large only in scope of vision. It causes the opponent to view a large, never-ending plain full or rocks and small bits of grass, replicating a forced Kuchiyose on them. The opponent can see only this, and hear, smell, and feel nothing else but the "plains". Easier to use in non-lush surroundings that already sort of look like it. Walking around for a long while will force the Genjutsu into a repetition. When cast, everyone within fifty yards of the point of origin will be affected. Movement is permitted, and when the body of the victim comes in contact with large obstacles their minds will cause them to maneuver around the obstacle, if it is simple such as stepping around over over large object.
• Jishin GenJutsu [ Earthquake Illusion Skill ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Visual of the hand touching the earth →→Description: The user performs a short row of hand seals and then slams their hands on the ground. The user appears to transfer Chakra into the ground, causing the ground to shake, along with anyone or anything around it. Faux leaves will even fall if vegetation is in the vicinity.
• Jisuberi no Jutsu [ Landslide Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Triggered Trap →→Description: Can only be placed within an environment that fits the needs of the visuals. When in some sort of a low altitude area, such as a valley or a canyon, the user of this skill can make their opponent see, hear and feel large boulders sliding towards them at a very fast rate. Boulders, if struck, will explode and shatter in realistic ways upon contact of proper force.
• Zeppeki Gisou no Jutsu [ Cliff Disguise Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: A Genjutsu which can only be used if the user and opponent are on or near a cliff. The Genjutsu makes the opponent see solid ground where the cliff truly is. If the user is careful, they can maneuver the opponent to where there is supposedly solid ground, but is in reality empty air, and cause the opponent to fall. This technique appears twice in the Genjutsu Listings, given its dual nature as both an Illusory and Enchantment technique. If utilizing it for the Illusory side the technique is a simple illusion anyone looking that direction can see.
• Aki no Hibiki [ Echo of Autumn ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: Yet another Jutsu that makes use of imagery, this one takes into account both plants and wind. By making eye contact with the opponent, they are able to rearrange the scenery around them to their needs. They cannot create an entirely new environment, but merely shape the existing one in any way they see fit. This allows for a multitude of options in tactics and serves to easily confuse even the most perceptive of opponents. The wind aspect here is a secondary option for most users, since they can simulate the sensation of wind in an opponent’s mind as well. The use of this ability can be very misleading.
• Boufuu no Jumon [ Spell of the Gale ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: A sharp whistle within of the wind is nothing of particular concern to a Shinobi. Natural settings like these are, in fact, what tend to mask a Shinobi from harm. However, this Genjutsu acts in a very different way than ‘natural’ wind would. Here, the Jutsu makes an opponent or group both feel and hear the wind coming from every direction, as if a typhoon is quickly approaching. It causes a very definite effect and tends to put people on alert. The sound can be loud, and the visual comes from the darkening of the clouds.
• Kagemazeru [ Shadowmeld ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 5 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: This Jutsu allows a person to visually manipulate shadows in a manner that combines Nirami no Kage [ Shadow Glare ] and Chouba no Kage [ Shadow Taunt ], among new usages. The user is able to create shadows of any proportion out of thin air and even, in good conditions, become near-invisible within them.
• Konoha no Jumon [ Spell of the Leaves ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasmal Bunshin →→Description: This is a visual Jutsu that takes advantage of nearby foliage. Without moving, a user is able to make themselves appear within the blink of an eye behind a veil of leaves. That is to say, they can make a Bunshin-like apparition that has their form but also manipulates the greenery around them. When they are 'destroyed', they pop into existence once more and expose a flurry of leaves. This technique can be compared to Oboro Bunshin no Jutsu, except that its effect is dependent upon plants.
• Kyouboku no Jumon [ Spell of the Trees ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Secondary of Choice, Secondary of Choice →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: This Jutsu, clearly, requires the presence of trees to work. Its effect is simple enough but valuable when trying to escape an opponent. By altering the surrounding trees in an area, the user is able to create a path by which an opponent is ‘forced’ to take. So, rather than being followed into one area, the user can force their opponent to follow another, possibly into a trap. This Jutsu is hard to detect because there is very little difference between these imaginary trees and the real thing. Except of course, if the pursuer is clumsy enough to run or leap into the illusion. That, or of course, they are following the user by any other means besides sight.
• Minagiru no Kage [ Shadow Swell ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 5 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: Visually expanding a shadow, the user is able to cover a large area in pseudo-darkness and thus forces an opponent to rely on their senses aside from sight. Not to say that this completely blinds a person, but it makes day seem like night, thus causing both great confusion and making direct combat difficult to an extent. This only visually manipulates shadows. Jutsu that rely on shadow as a form of attack (like Nara Jutsu) cannot exploit this technique.
• Kokohi no Jutsu [ False Place Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Taste →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: Kokohi no Jutsu is a simple Genjutsu technique which changes the appearance of a nearby object. The object is no larger than a human, maximum, and can be interacted with as if it were the appearance given.
______________________________________[ B - Ranked Techniques ]
• Hyudora Bunshin no Jutsu [ Hydra Clone Technique ] →→Rank: B →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sight, Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 20 Chakra →→Source: Phantasmal Bunshin →→Description: At first, the targets of this illusion may believe they are fighting against Kage Bushin clones but when a clone is hit, it splits into two clouds which reform into two new, separate clones. When one of these is hit, the same process occurs. In short order, the target of this technique may quickly come to believe that fighting back against the clones is only making things worse for them and they may attempt to flee or simply defend. →→Originator: Atsuma Ket [malavaes]
• Anoyo Kiretsu no Jutsu [World of the Dead Fissure Technique] →→Rank: B →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 20 Chakra →→Source: Illusion →→Description: The user makes the opponent see a fissure appearing in front of him. Then, voices begin to come out of the fissure, voices of people that the opponent knows and can recognize. The voices lament their "deaths" and call out to the opponent to join them in hell. This technique may be learned as either an Illusory or Enchantment Genjutsu. If an Enchantment, the technique activates on those designated by indicating in some visible way those to be affected, who can be no more than twenty [20] yards apart, who will be the only ones to see it. As an Illusory, the technique simply manifests as a phantasm, making it visible to anyone who looks at it. Originator: Hitoshi Hojo [BlackJack1995]
• Konrinzai no Jutsu [ Deepest Part of the Earth Technique ] →→Rank: B →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch, Chakra →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts// 30 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: The exact opposite of Kousho no Jutsu, the Genjutsu forces the opponent to believe that he or she is in a deep, dark pit, with the opening to the pit a hundred feet away or more above them. The walls of the pit are so, so slimy, & so, so impossible to climb. While normally just a figment and no more, this particular jutsu unleashes a sort of emotional cloud of fear, inducing a light touch of claustrophobia to those caught within its illusion. This builds slowly, so as to give the impression of being a natural emotion for the victim. For visuals, the walls would erupt out of the ground in the blink of an eye, with the sensation of falling to the bottom. Originator: Katherine Strehkovsky [Temujin Uchiha]
• Kyouboku Toukai no Jutsu [ Forest Destruction Technique ] →→Rank: B →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound, Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 20 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: A Genjutsu that can only be used in forests. The opponent sees, hears, and feels trees falling all around them, threatening to crush them. Falling trees and other debris can cause physical pain and a physical reaction, same as if it occurred with real trees, though these wounds vanish with the banishment of the technique. Originator: Katherine Strehkovsky [Temujin Uchiha]
• Akumu Kage [ Nightmare Shadow ] →→Rank: B →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 20 Chakra →→Source: Illusion →→Description: This technique forces an opponent to believe the shadows around them act independent of the light cast in the particular setting. They shape and form various objects of likewise varying proportions. What is actually happening here is that the user is recreating scenes or things from their past which have caused them harm to some extent. It can range as being as complex and morbid was witnessing the birth and slaughter of a newborn, or even to something as trivial as clown-shaped figures surrounding the opponent from all sides. The shadows, of course, have no face or actual presence: They are merely shapes which hint at the aforementioned events. If the user is seen to form handseals the belief of this technique becomes moderately weakened, causing the Primary Sense to be reduced in strength by one half rank [½]. →→Originator: Atsuma Ket [malavaes]
• Shi kara no Sasayaki [ Whispers from the Dead ] →→Rank: B →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 20 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: The effects of this sound based Jutsu makes those entrapped hear the voices of lost loved ones or family or friends they hadn't seen in a long to be saying awful things about them and their constant failures. As well bringing up dark secrets from their past to instill self-doubt in the one trapped. These voices come from the shadows, and looking close enough, one might well see the twisted, dark silhouettes of figures speaking them. While in effect, the darkness becomes thicker, darker, to the point that even night-vision goggles and techniques will be hampered. →→Originator: Atsuma Ket [malavaes], Katherine Strehkovsky [Temujin Uchiha]

______________________________________[ E - Ranked Techniques ]
• Etainoshirenai no Oto [ Sounding the Unfamiliar ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sound // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: // →→Source: Audio Phantasm →→Description: Another harmless Genjutsu, this one simply makes an opponent imagine that, in dark places, different animals begin to call out from all around them. This can range from a cat’s meow just behind them to an owl’s hoot above. The user’s own voice is what makes these sounds and then he/she manipulates them with Chakra. Therefore, it goes without saying that this Genjutsu affects one's sense of sound.
• Hekireki Koe no Jutsu [ Thunder Voice Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Hearing // - →→S. Sense: N // A →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 // 5 Chakra →→Source: Vocals →→Description: This Genjutsu is very simple. Upon its execution, the target is made to hear the user's voice at an astoundingly amplified level. This is a Genjutsu often used by academy teachers to awaken students that fall asleep in class. Originator: Kagerou Uchiha [HeadlessKoko]
• Hibanahouden no Jutsu [ Discharge Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Description: The target of this technique feels a tingle all over their body; their hair even seems to stand on end. Whenever they try to touch an object they receive a painful jolt of what seems to be high-end static electricity. The pain is not so severe that they cannot function but it is distracting to say the least. The key to realizing that this effect is an illusion comes in knowing the nature of static electricity.
• Shitsukentou Genkaku [ Disorientation Motion Illusion ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 // - →→Source: Snapping of the fingers whilst gazing upon the victim →→Description: Upon casting of the technique, the vision of the intended target blurs and shakes rapidly, as it forces the eyeballs to jerk to the left and right in a rapid way. The main giveaway for the Genjutsu is that nothing falls nor moves due to the shaking.
• Tsutaurushi no Jutsu [ Poison Ivy Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Description: A Genjutsu inspired by the poison ivy and oak plentiful in the forests of the Earth Country, it causes the victim to feel as if they were slathered in poison ivy. The user feels an irritating itching, pain on/under their skin, and begins to scratch away.
• Kuuden [ Static ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sound // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Area of Effect → All within 30 feet +10 ft/rank of chakra used →→Description: This Jutsu targets the sense of hearing of a foe. While under the effect of this skill, the victim constantly hears the sound of static in his ears, making it difficult for one suffering from this affliction to hear sounds over the annoying noise. Often used to hamper communication between foes, as well as a distraction. The effect is increased by one rank iif the target is wearing/using a communication device.
• Okuyuki Katawa [ Depth Distortion ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post// 5 Chakra →→Source: Must gaze into the eyes of the subject to be affected, though a connection need not be established →→Description: This Jutsu adversely affects the depth perception of a target, making them unable to accurately judge the distance between themselves and an object. For example, an opponent under the influence of this technique would have trouble determining the speed of an incoming projectile, or may misjudge a quarry’s position as being further away.
• Shihouhapou [ All Directions ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sound // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 5 chakra →→Description: This Jutsu distorts the hearing of the opponent, causing the sounds of the user to appear to be coming from every direction. Commonly used to confuse the target concerning his foe’s location, or used to intimidate the one’s adversary by convincing him that he is surrounded. Is able to be reduced to particular directions, 1 specified direction per post if so chosen.
• Shimaru Shikaku [ Closed Sight ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 post // 10 Chakra →→Source: Gesturing with hand by opening hand, rotating as if catching something, and closing hand into a fist →→Description: This Jutsu targets the peripheral vision of the target. While under the effects of this Jutsu, the victim's range of vision will be reduced from roughly 180 to 60 degrees; essentially causing them to see only what is directly in front of their eyes. Due to this, the afflicted will find themselves unable to register attacks coming from either flank, and will in turn also find targeting foes for attack more difficult than normal.
• Konoha-Ryū Yanagi [ Tree Leaf-Style Willow ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 // 5 Chakra →→Source: ”Weapon” Movement →→Description: The user waves their weapon or arms back and forth, which when seen by the target locks them in a genjutsu which causes them to hallucinate multiple waving arms. The movement resembles that of a willow tree blowing in the wind. With the enemy off guard, the user is free to cut them down. Can be activated via weapon alone. A simple Genjutsu, one merely only needs to wave their weapon or arms in a willow's fashion to produce the visual trickery.
• Magen: Jigoku Kōka no Jutsu [ Demonic Illusion: Descending Hell Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post// 10 Chakra →→Description: Demonic Illusion: Jigoku Gouka no Jutsu is a Genjutsu technique that causes its target to see a vision of fire.

Effects include the feeling of intense heat bearing down upon them, but does not include physical damage or pain.

Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 // - →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: An illusionary clone that charges towards the enemy, jumps, then explodes in a fog of mist, flower petals, leaves, or anything the caster can think of to confuse their opponent. Note, this is not an actual clone, but is perceivable by all who can see it.
• Kiga no Jutsu [ Hunger Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Taste // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Description: The opponent is overcome by a sudden hunger and will be unable to concentrate fully because of this urge to find food; those who are weak against Genjutsu may even find themselves in a condition where they feel like they are lethargic.
• Nodono Kawaki no Jutsu [ Thirst Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Taste // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Description: The opponent is overcome by a sudden thirst and will be unable to concentrate fully because of this urge to find water; those who are weak against Genjutsu may even find themselves in a condition where they feel like they are lethargic.
______________________________________[ D - Ranked Techniques ]
• Kumo Yotogi [ Cloud Watching ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound, Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 // 10 Chakra →→Description: Once this Genjutsu is cast, colors from the target’s perspective lose their harshness and a peaceful, serene feeling washes over him or her. The target feels completely relaxed and at ease, and then the user triggers the second stage by saying something along the lines of “The clouds are so nice and free…” When this happens, the target begins to get the feeling of becoming a cloud, and rising up to join the others in the sky. This Genjutsu is useful because it can make the target off-guard.
• Fuketsu Koromo no Jutsu [ Dirty Clothes Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sight →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 // 10 Chakra →→Source: Exhales across an open palm facing upwards →→Synergy: If Tsutaurushi no Jutsu [ Poison Ivy Technique ] is used upon the subject first, an illusion of a syrupy like substance will secrete from the target(s) pores and carries both effects. However, the cost remains at E - rank, effectively making this technique cost an E - rank instead of D - rank, and causing the duration of the technique to become set to six posts [6] per useage. Furthermore, Sight becomes a Primary sense, giving this combination no Secondary, requiring a double Kai to remove it. →→Description: A Jutsu in which the target(s) see a large amount of dust rise up into the air and attach to the their clothes and any surrounding environments. The clothes then become incredibly uncomfortable to wear and move around in, making the opponent lose mobility and speed.
• Sei Kyuuten no Jutsu [ Gender Sudden Change Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sight →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Description: A rather humorous Genjutsu, this Genjutsu makes it so that the opponent imagines everyone they see as the opposite gender. This can cause major confusion to the opponent, as well as shock. In all respects, the switched gender specific parts feel and act as real as they would otherwise.
• Sekkin Kyoushoukoku no Jutsu [ Approaching Allies Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Chakra // Sound, Scent →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // - →→Source: A cloud of one's own chakra is released into the area, overwhelming the perceptions of those within. →→Description: This is one of the rarer techniques that uses Chakra as a Primary Sense, which means it is specifically anti-sensor. A simple Genjutsu in which the opponent hears the sound and feels the Chakra of approaching Shinobi, presumably allies of the user. This Jutsu can be used as an intimidation tactic, for stalling if necessary. A Sensor attempting to overcome this must pay double the amount of chakra of the original casting of this technique.
• Suna no Akushumi [ Taste of Sand ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Taste // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Blowing sand at an opponent or opponent walking through a cloud of dust →→Description: Performing a few seals the user performs a Genjutsu in which the victim will imagine their mouth filled with sand. While not a particularly deadly Jutsu the taste of the sand is quite disgusting and will usually cause the victim to stop what they are doing to spit the imaginary sand out. The sand will however remain until the Jutsu ends regardless of what the target does to spit out the sand. Causes cottonmouth.
• Dokuji no Gyoushi [ Leer of the Peculiar ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 // - →→Source: Eye Contact →→Description: A somewhat harmless Jutsu, this one is made through eye contact. A form of intimidation, this one seemingly communicates malicious intent upon a victim and is often used to open up attacks for teammates. Not necessarily stunning, it does provoke an opponent into thinking twice before engaging in battle. By paying an additional D - rank in cost the technique may be cast without handsigns. After duration ends the emotion that was caused remains, though it is no longer compulsory. →→Special: Can be learned as an Instance technique instead.
• Kugurinukeru Meikyou [ Through the Looking Glass ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // - →→Description: With a few hand seals the user shatters their opponent's vision. For the next four posts the target will see the world as if they were looking through a pane of broken glass. This type of compound vision tends to make it a lot harder to decide exactly where something is by presenting a multitude of images and if nothing else it is extremely annoying but it isn't inherently dangerous. Does not need to be maintained with a handsign for the full 4 posts. Additional posts beyond that will need it, though.
• Dokuji no Onsei [ Voice of the Peculiar ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sound // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Audial Phantasm →→Description: This is a wonderful technique, comparable to the Chouba no Kage. A verbal aid, it manipulates a person’s voice and makes them seem either more or less imposing. When coupled before or after the Chouba no Kage, it can make the user seem possessed: changing both their voice and their shadow to those more intimidating. By itself, it can be used as a very noteworthy distraction and can also deter opponents from engaging the user right away. Skilled Shinobi can make their voice sound like that of other people they have encountered rather than just changing pitch and tone. →→Synchronization: If using Chouba no Kage and Dokuji no Onsei together, one upkeep activation will count for both techniques.
• Youma Tacchi [ Ghost Touch ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sound // Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Description: This simple Genjutsu shifts the target's perceptions of the world two feet forwards and two feet to the left or right. While they are affected they will believe that they just pass right through whatever they try to touch like a ghost trying to make contact with the real world. This Jutsu works best if people just ignore the target and any sort of forceful contact will snap the target out of this state.
• Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu [ Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // - →→Description: Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu is a Genjutsu technique that causes its target to see a horrifying vision. The Shinobi will use the serpent hand seal to cause a circle of leaves to spin and envelop the target and then fall away. Once cast the world will appear normal to the target until they see the illusion.
• Pesuto [ Plague of Rats ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Line of Sight with target →→Description: The caster creates the illusion of them becoming a large swarm of rats that covers the target. The Jutsu makes it so the target is made to believe that they are slowly being devoured alive by the rats.
• Magen: Chirudo Tamashii [ Demonic Illusion: Chilled Soul ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 15 Chakra →→Source: Physical Contact with caster, water, or a cold breeze →→Description: The opponent suddenly feels very cold, enough to make them shiver uncontrollably.
• Magen: Onsui Tamashii [ Demonic Illusion: Heated Soul ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 15 Chakra →→Source: Physical contact with caster, direct sunlight, or close to fire →→Description: The opponent sudden feels very hot, enough to make them sweat uncontrollably.
• Taitona Supotto [ Tight Spot ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Description: The target feels like they are cramped into a tight space, and the world has compacted around them, making those who fear tight spaces feel crazy. Being such a brief Jutsu, it can also make the victim feel awkward after it has worn off. →→Special: If target in a dark or confining space, the strength of the technique is increased by one rank per factor.
• Magen: Chō Ko [ Demonic Illusion: Butterfly Evolution ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post // 5 Chakra →→Description: An illusion in which countless butterflies surround the enemy. This gives the caster the chance to place an exploding tag on the victim's body before cutting off the illusion, revealing that all the butterflies were exploding tags that all detonate alongside the original. →→Special: Does not require explosive tags. This can be used to help place objects upon the target(s), the smaller the better.
• Magen: Kokuni Arazu no Jutsu [ Demonic Illusion: False Surrounding Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 5 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Description: A Genjutsu technique that makes the victim believe that he/she is in a totally different surrounding than they really are. The user creates a whole new surrounding that the opponent ends up seeing, instead of the old one, giving the user the advantage as only they would be aware of the exact lay of the land. However, note that people, pets, puppets, weaponry, the user, and the target are not part of the surroundings. These things stay where they are. This jutsu produces the feeling that the land is not as it should be, before changing to one in which the target feels that it should be. →→Special: If double cost and upkeep are paid upon initial casting, the user is able to hide themselves, as well as any objects weighing up to fifteen pounds [15 lbs] per rank of the user within the same amount of footage, within the scenery.
______________________________________[ C - Ranked Techniques ]
• Kukan Hyouketsu no Jutsu [ Body Freeze Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Contact →→Description: This Genjutsu, like the Immortality Technique, starts with the user gathering a small amount of illusionary electricity in their hands, but then must physically contact the target in order to fully initiate the Genjutsu. When the user hits the target, the electricity seems to discharge, reducing the amount of body heat that will be generated. Soon after, the target begins to feel very cold, and afterward they will start to get the symptoms of hypothermia: shivering, slurred speech, loss of coordination and sluggish movements.
• Jouho no Koe [ Voice of Compromise ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Chakra // Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Auditory Alteration →→Description: The user focuses a small amount of Chakra into his vocal chords as he speaks, allowing it to escape with his voice. This technique does not affect the sound of the user’s voice directly, but rather affects how any listeners hear the message. While using this technique, anything the user says will be perceived by listeners as a positive message. It can have numerous effects, such as endearing the speaker to his audience. The power of this Jutsu is quite limited, however. It tends to have very little effect on established enemies, or people in a high state of emotion, although it has been known to calm down agitated people.
• Yukashii no Jutsu [ Charming Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Chakra // Sight →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Auditory Instrument →→Description: The user plays notes on an instrument, lulling animals in the area into a state of mild hypnosis. This causes the animals to think that the user's foes are their foes and that the user is an ally. This can even turn pets against their owners for a time. However, this does not work on summons.
• Hibanahouden Ni no Jutsu [ Discharge 2 Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sound, Smell →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Description: A stronger, more potent version of the Discharge Technique. This version makes the target feel the hair on their head stand up and float around in the air, their clothing crackle and pop with every movement they make, and if they touch anything the resulting jolt is sufficient to make their whole body reel backwards from the pain.
• Zeppeki Gisou no Jutsu [ Cliff Disguise Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 4 Posts // 15 Chakra →→Source: Meeting of the eyes and a small gesture as if waving away their concern(s) →→Description: A Genjutsu which can only be used if the user and opponent are on or near a cliff. The Genjutsu makes the opponent see solid ground where the cliff truly is. If the user is careful, they can maneuver the opponent to where there is supposedly solid ground, but is in reality empty air, and cause the opponent to fall. This technique appears twice in the Genjutsu Listings, given its dual nature as both an Illusory and Enchantment technique. If utilizing it for the Illusory side the technique is a simple illusion anyone looking that direction can see. The technique can, however, be focused on a single individual by meeting their eyes and gesturing with a small wave of the hand, as if brushing away concern(s).
• Kyouchikutou no Jumon [ Spell of the Oleander ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Scent // Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Blowing paper/petals/etc into opponent's face or direction. Must be in line of sight of the target →→Description: This technique makes use of imagery to cast both fear and doubt in an opponent. With a pile of leaves or even shreds of paper, the user blows them into an opponent’s face and thus activates the Genjutsu. The leaves or paper are ‘charmed’ and release the effect upon making contact with the opponent. At first, the opponent is merely annoyed by these fragrance-filled, white petals being blown in their face. But then after a few seconds, the technique's effect kicks in and makes the opponent think and feel that they’ve been poisoned. Allows the technique to replicate the Oleander Hazard.
• Kaze no Totsunyuu [ Rushing Winds ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Technique may affect one individual per rank of the user by creating a performance of calling wind into the vicinity. If done in this way, no handseals are required for the technique →→Description: Crafting a Genjutsu around their opponent, the enemy will immediately notice the wind kicking up and beginning to blow violently against them, intensifying to such a degree that vision and mobility become severely hampered. Directions such as up or down become increasingly difficult to separate and even after the Genjutsu ends the enemy is often left feeling extremely disoriented and nauseous.

• Mougo Shibaku no Jutsu [ False Strike Technique ] (Split Category) →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post // 10 Chakra →→Source: Requires physical touch if applied to another individual, or anything that equates to physical contact →→Description: This technique is a fairly simple one, but it is very useful in a tight spot. When an attack is nearing, the user of this technique forms a single seal to activate the technique, and then immediately moves to dodge the technique. The attacker instead of seeing the user dodging, will instead see (and if applicable feel) the attack strike their target with the appropriate effect (blood gushing out for example), and with their eyes drawn to the illusion instead of the real user, the user is afforded a short moment in which they are as good as invisible to their opponent in which they can use to either seek better cover, or even quickly counter-attack. While the technique is quite convincing, repeated use is not advised, as once the opponent is aware of the way to technique works, it is quite possible they may be able to counter it.
• Inago no Akushumi [ Taste of Locusts ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Taste // Touch →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 7 // - →→Source: Phantasm, creating an illusory effect for all to see →→Description: Similar to the Taste of Sand technique in which the victim imagines their mouth suddenly filled with a swarm of live locusts. The imaginary locusts will try and crawl down the victim’s throat, which makes spitting them out a difficult task. Vomiting often occurs which usually dispels the Genjutsu but leaves them open for attack. If no attempts are made to spit out the locusts or vomit them out, this Genjutsu will continue to last until the full length of time has passed.
• Saboten Uchinuku Meimu [ Cactus Punch Illusion ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 10 Chakra →→Source: Contact →→Description: An illusion that makes the target believe that the user’s exposed skin are covered with hundreds of pointed spines, like a cactus. When the user punches the target, their brain is fooled into thinking that the spines are digging into the opponent’s flesh, stimulating the pain receptors more than usual. In reality, the punch is still the same strength. Additionally the opposite is true if the enemy tries to strike the opponent. Cactus flowers may be added for the artistically inclined! This genjutsu is not limited to the one type of spine, as cacti have many different forms, to which this jutsu will follow.
• Atama Kusari No Jutsu [ Chained Mind Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post // 10 Chakra →→Source: Line of sight of user’s hands to intended target →→Description: This technique uses intricate hand movements and subtle Chakra waves to render the target hypnotized and incapable of movement. However, if the target cannot see the Shinobi's hands, the technique will not take hold. This effect will only last as long as the Shinobi continues to perform the technique and the target can see the Shinobi's hands. In other words, while performing this Jutsu, you are helpless, but so is your target (Similar to the Shadow Bind technique). Ideally, this technique would be used as part of a team strategy. Requires complete concentration. i.e. talking, flinching, distractions, et cetera will break the bind.

• Kyouyuu Shiryoku [ Shared Sight ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 3 Posts // 5 Chakra →→Source: Closing the eyes, though only one need be closed to see →→Description: For this technique, the user does not alter the surroundings.

If an Enchantment, the technique activates on those designated by indicating in some visible way those to be affected, who can be no more than twenty [20] yards apart, who will be the only ones to see it.

Cancels and blocks C-ranked & lower genjutsus for both the user & the target for one sense only. Originator: Hitoshi Hojo [BlackJack1995]

• Raimei Wana Fuu [ Thunder Trap Seal ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sound →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Triggered Trap →→Description: A basic Genjutsu in the sense that what it does is very simple, however it is an illusion that is set up for the target, but also an illusion that the user himself notices. Flashing a series of signs the user "primes" an area or object with a conditional Genjutsu. Whenever someone crosses the said area or tampers with said object loud thunder is sounded and can be heard well from everywhere. While partially unsettling for most people who were just walking around or touching something the Genjutsu does nothing more then alert the setter of this Genjutsu that someone set off one of his signals. Guild Description: See official description. In essence, this jutsu affects all living beings in the area. This jutsu is stackable with more instance genjutsus. Other Instance Genjutsu may be primed, to a maximum of one [1] additional Instance per rank of the Genjutsu user.
• Suna Arashi no Odokemono [ Trickster’s Sand Storm ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: →→Description: This Jutsu causes the opponent to believe that a sandstorm is kicking up, blinding his vision, irritating his eyes, getting into his nose and mouth. Simply rubbing their eyes will usually end the Genjutsu, though it is still quite useful if one can take use of the temporary blindness the target may suffer.
• Etainoshirenai no Tsuujite [ Through the Unfamiliar ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Chakra // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: Strange in its uses, this Genjutsu is fairly harmless. What it does is it makes any opponent who falls into its area of effect imagine that they have just undergone a certain sense of déjà vu. That is to say, they begin to question whether they are following the right path or direction since the one in front of them seems too familiar to be the right way. Area of effect includes all within ten [10] yards per rank.
• Doro Shissaku no Jutsu [ Mud Slip Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sight →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Triggered Trap →→Description: A Genjutsu in which the victim feels slippery “mud” right beneath his or her feet, causing them to slip and fall.

• Okkuu Chiri no Jutsu [ Annoying Dust Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: This simple Genjutsu makes a person feel as if there was a speck of dust in their eye, irritating it.

• Shonben no Jutsu [ Urine Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: A Genjutsu which makes the opponent feel the urge to urinate badly, even if they just went.

• Etainoshirenai no Tacchi [ Touch of the Unfamiliar ] →→Rank: E →→P/S. Sense: Touch // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Triggered Object →→Description: This Jutsu, by its name alone, obviously takes into account a person’s sense of touch. Much unlike the rest of these Jutsu, this one is activated once a person touches a particular object that the user has placed the seal upon. It can be as obvious as a Kunai being sent at an opponent from any distance, or even the leaves of a tree. In short, what it does is it makes the user question whether or not the particular item existed or not. So if a person were to be stabbed with a Kunai, they would seem to not feel the pain of the Kunai, but would realize it much later since the effect of the Jutsu is quite short. In the example of leaves, a person could pass through a veil of leaves and only have their other four senses to rely on as to whether or not those leaves even truly existed, causing a very distinct sense of confusion. Applies only to the object that is sealed, & sets off when anyone touches it.
• Onkyou no Jutsu [ Sound Technique ] →→Rank: E →→P/S.

• Kyuukai Nikutai Oshuu no Jutsu [ Rotting Flesh Foul Smell Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Scent // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 20 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: A Genjutsu that makes a person imagine the smell of rotting flesh permeating through the air. This causes a loss of concentration, nausea, and sometimes vomiting. If maintained, can effect everyone within thirty [30] yards of a single focus point that cannot change. If Maintained, may change the strength of scent without paying additional costs. Longest sustained duration is ten [10] posts before jutsu fails.
• Chiru no Jutsu [ Chill Technique ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 20 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: The user sends a chill down the spine of their opponent for a moment, making them temporarily feel fear. The feeling is done before the other can realize it is Genjutsu. Usually done in accordance with something like looking the other in the eye, it can have various effects on the opponent's mind. Can be instanced. This jutsu is stackable with more instance genjutsus.
• Buki Hanshoku [ Weapon Multiply ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 20 Chakra →→Source: Phantasm →→Description: Making a single hand sign, the user must first throw a Senbon, Kunai, or other projectile weapon, and then the Genjutsu takes effect. Working on the perception of the target, the weapon becomes many, turning anything from one Senbon into one hundred. Mainly used to get the opponent to get caught up with the oncoming weapons, it is a good distraction Jutsu. Can work on projectile Ninjutsu as well.
• Dokuji no Gyoushi [ Leer of the Peculiar ] →→Rank: D →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 // - →→Source: Eye Contact →→Description: A somewhat harmless Jutsu, this one is made through eye contact. A form of intimidation, this one seemingly communicates malicious intent upon a victim and is often used to open up attacks for teammates. Not necessarily stunning, it does provoke an opponent into thinking twice before engaging in battle. By paying an additional D - rank in cost the technique may be cast without handsigns. After duration ends the emotion that was caused remains, though it is no longer compulsory. →→Special: Can be learned as an Enchantment technique instead.
• Kurenai's Flower Petal Escape [ Unnamed ] →→Rank: X - ranked // Learned as D - rank →→P/S. Sense: Sight // Sound, One Other Secondary of Choice →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // - →→Source: →→Description: While the official description in the source material is that Kurenai disperses into flower petals to escape, this technique will cause an illusion of the user scattering in some sort of multiple particles. This can range from ash, to flowers, to leaves, to sand, etc. This serves as the Genjutsu variant to Shunshin, covering the escape movement through trickery, and follows the same rules and restrictions as others of its type. If used to avoid an attack, the user’s Reflex statistic is counted effectively as one rank higher [+1].

• Go Kasho Fuu: Raikou Seki no Jutsu [ Five Point Seal: Lightning Barrier Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Touch // Sight, Scent →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 40 Chakra →→Source: Triggered Trap →→Description: A technique similar to Thunder Trap Seal, but proves to be stronger by manipulating the senses of the target. By flashing a number of seals, the Shinobi primes an area or object with a Genjutsu in the same manner as the Thunder Trap Seal. However, unlike the Thunder Trap Seal, when a target attempts to walk through the area or tampers with the object that has been primed, they receive the feeling of being electrocuted that even includes the smell of burning flesh. Specifically, if the Genjutsu was primed on an object, the target will have difficulty letting go. Dispelling the Genjutsu will remove the barrier.
• Karada no Rinchi [ Beating of the Body ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post // - →→Source: Eye Contact →→Description: After making eye contact after concluding hand seals, this Jutsu makes the target feel like physical blows are being landed all over their body. While no actual damage is done, the user may twitch uncontrollably in reaction to this Jutsu. Cannot be used again until after a two [2] post cooldown.
• Aitou no Hibiki [ Echo of Lament ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Any // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 40 Chakra →→Source: Original →→Description: A technique fashioned for defense, this one takes a rather different approach. It is, in fact, fashioned for reversal and is quite dangerous in effect. Preparing the Jutsu ahead of an opponent's attack, it is passive until activated with precise Chakra control. Through any of the senses, the Genjutsu is passed on and it quickly alters the image an opponent sees. What appears to the opponent is a direct hit on their target. Whether it be as simple as a Kunai plunging into their thigh or a Genjutsu immobilizing them with fear, an opponent will see this outcome played out as exactly as if it would have really happened. Yet, it is the ability of this technique to make one think that and thus leave a very critical opening in any person’s defense.
• Raigen Raikouchuu [ Lightning Illusion Lightning Flash Pillar ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 1 Post // - →→Source: →→Description: Raigen Raikouchuu is a Genjutsu technique that generates a large flash of light which blinds the enemy. Shii will first do a string of hand seals, then he generates a large pillar of lightning which hinders the eyesight of his target. A secondary visual genjutsu can immediately follow this one [not costing an activation] so long as the technique fits thematically with this genjutsu, and is no more than C - rank in strength. Due to the differences between anime & manga, this jutsu can also appear as lightning around the user's body, just before the main effect.

• Chousen no Hibiki [ Echo of Defiance ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Any One Sense // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: 2 Posts // 15 Chakra →→Source: Enchanted Object →→Description: With this technique, the user wears down an opponent’s resistance to Genjutsu by attacking one of the five senses. Using an item of their choice, or even a set of items, they imbue their Chakra into them and use them to release specific reactions. The reactions are psychologically inhibited and occur in the span of a few seconds, activated by both sight and touch. An opponent merely imagines themselves going through one of these reactions in quick spurts: blurred vision, delayed motor reaction, dulled sense of hearing, and trouble breathing. When used over and over again, they wear an opponent down and make other Genjutsu more invasive. The next Genjutsu, up to B-rank, is increased in effects by 1 rank on the chosen Sense.
• Magen: Nijū Kokoni Arazu no Jutsu [ Demonic Illusion: Double False Surroundings Technique ] →→Rank: C →→P/S. Sense: Sight // - →→Base Duration // Upkeep: Instant (1) // 10 Chakra →→Source: Illusion →→Description: This Jutsu places another visual illusion on top of a previous illusion created by the user. If and when the target dispels the first illusion, they will not realize that a second is in place. The Chakra cost & duration is in conjunction with the Genjutsu being 'doubled', & begins after the first has been dispelled. This essentially makes 2 visual genjutsus into 1, with the second half of the genjutsu being immune to 1 overall dispel attempt.
