Storm Ruler
Storm Manipulation
Description: This control allows the Storm user to create varied amounts of black colored electricity. Electricity created by this technique has a static effect that can cause temporary numbness or even paralysis on contact. Not only can it take any form the user desires, but it can also be shifted around as if it were a part of their own body. It should be noted that one can only manipulate the electricity they themselves have made. Additionally, any electricity that is being freely manipulated is not very strong, and can be broken or blown away as if it were completely natural. Should be noted that techniques can be made smaller while retaining their rank.
- Rank E: Very small amount of electricity [static shock]. Can cause tingling and discomfort at contact point. Effects lasts one [1] post.
Rank D: Small amounts of electricity. Can cause pain and numbness at contact point. Effects last one [1] post.
Rank C: Medium amounts of electricity [a series of arcing bolts]. Can cause pain and numbness throughout body, and stuns the opponent, reducing the number of activations they receive by [1]. Effects last one [1] post.
Rank B: Large amounts of electricity. Can cause pain, numbness, loss of control of limbs, and stuns the opponent, reducing the number of activations they receive by [1]. Affects anyone within five feet of contact. Effects last one [1] post.
Rank A: Very large amounts of electricity [lightning bolts]. Can cause pain, numbness, loss of control of limbs, and stuns the opponent, reducing the number of activations they receive by [1]. Affects anyone within five feet of contact. Effects last two [2] posts.
Rank S: Massive amounts of electricity [a storm]. Causes loss of consciousness at contact. Causes temporary paralysis to anyone within ten feet of contact. Paralysis lasts three [3] posts.
• The amount of electricity that can be created is limited to the user's experience rank limit [at E-rank can make up to C-rank, D-rank up to B-rank, etc.]
• Manipulated lightning lose any modifiers, and are beaten by techniques of the same rank, or one rank lower against wind.
Displacement of Light]
Rank: E | Strength: -- | Speed: --
Description: An add-on specifically for clones. The clone(s) will be encompassed by wobbling light patterns, which will cause it to appear to all but the user as either much larger or much smaller than it really is. Clones gain an E-rank dodge bonus for [3] posts.
Threatening
Rank: E | Strength: -- | Speed: --
Description: A basic Storm ability in which the user will slap an object and have a thunder sound emit from that spot. The noise is loud enough to overlap most other sounds for a brief moment. If used offensively, a slap within [3] meters of the opponent can cause temporary deafness, lasting [1] post.
Spark
Rank: D | Strength: -- | Speed: D
Description: The user either touches the opponent or throws a spark at them that does no more than tingle on contact. However, the opponent will find that lightning-based techniques are drawn toward them, making them harder to dodge. For [3] posts, all Lightning and Storm spells act as [1] rank higher in speed against the sparked opponent, and they lose any dodge bonuses.
Lightning Barrier
Rank: D | Strength: D | Speed: --
Description: While this spell only requires a single motion to cast, its rather taxing for the user. By quite literally venting Storm mana from the body the user creates an aura around them which, while no more then four inches in size, is filled with lightning. This forms an emergency shield of sorts to protect the user. Given its nature its ill advised to strike the user with hand to hand combat, as it will deliver a nasty shock, which can result in first degree burns and stun, which reduces the number of activations the opponent can make by one [1]. Can be maintained for half the original cost per post, and is dismissed by the seal.
Electric Blast
Rank: X | Strength: X-1 | Speed: X+1
Description: Functioning in a similar way to Lightning Barrier, the user makes a single motion and releases a surge of lightning. However, instead of creating an aura, the blast extends in a [b[[3] meter radius per rank around them, delivering a nasty shock to anyone in range. It is weak but has the potential to cause burns and even paralysis at higher ranks.
Chain Lightning
Rank: Passive | Strength: -- | Speed: --
Description: As the user grows stronger, they gain more control of their lightning. Once this training is complete, the user is able to chain their Storm and Lightning spells to [1] additional opponent within [5] meters, [1] time per post at no extra cost or activation. The chained technique functions as [1] rank lower in strength and speed against the additional opponent. Training takes [3] parts of a paragraph to learn. It can be retrained again when the user reaches B-rank to chain to [1] additional opponent at [2] ranks weaker. This second training takes [5] parts of a paragraph to learn.
• Requires C-rank experience to learn, and then B-rank to upgrade.
Rain Clouds
Rank: C | Strength: -- | Speed: --
Description: This spell condenses moisture in the air to form an overcast sky. It should be noted that this spell does not cover much area, about [30] meters, and after being performed it still takes roughly four [4] posts before the clouds form and break open. Only takes two [2] posts, if clouds are already present. Rain will last [10] posts once it starts, soaking all within range. Lightning-based spells act as [1] rank higher in strength against soaked opponents.
Lightning Grenade
Rank: X | Strength: X-1 | Speed: X+1
Description: A ball of lightning forms between the user's hands. With a simple throwing motion, the lightning ball is launched at an opponent. Upon contact, the ball will explode in a [1] meter radius per rank blast. The blast can cause up to second degree burns if struck directly, and cause stun or even paralysis to anyone within an addition [1] meter per rank beyond.
Light Fang
Rank: C | Strength: D | Speed: B
Description: The user gathers Storm mana into their mouth and fires off a sharp, thin stream of light. Due to the concentration, it is powerful enough to cut clean through flesh on contact, but the beam is smaller than an inch wide, requiring it to be well placed to do any lethal damage. However, it is very fast, making it difficult to dodge.
Denki Shihai [Electric Domination]
Rank: B
Strength: C
Speed: A
Description: This technique functions almost identically to Denki Bakuhatsu [Electric Blast] in that black lightning is released in a surge from the user by forming the ram seal. However, instead of a radial blast, the lightning is released in a straight line forward. The stream is approximately [3] meters wide and about [15] meters long. If caught directly by the stream, the opponent may suffer severe burns and temporary paralysis, lasting [2] posts.

Reizaa Saakasu [Laser Circus]
Rank: B
Strength: C
Speed: A
Description: This technique creates up to [10] brilliant beams of black lightning that the user fires at the enemy. First, a halo of bright energy spreads around the user's hands as the technique is activated, then it encircles the user's hand. From that the beams are shot forward. The user is able to alter the beam's direction after being shot, making it possible to strike multiple enemies with pinpoint accuracy, even bypassing hostages held in close proximity. The more beams that are created, the weaker each individual beam is (all beams together equal the strength of the technique), but being hit by one is enough to deliver a nasty shock that stuns the opponent, causing them to lose [1] activation on their next post. The effect stack per beam the opponent is struck by, up to [1] full post of activations lost.

Kurobansa [Black Panther]
Rank: A
Strength: A
Speed: A
Description: As the user performs the required hand signs, a substantial amount of black lightning gathers around their form. At the last seal, the user holds their hand forward and releases a mass of lightning in the shape of a panther-like beats to strike a desired target. The panther will then focus on the opponent for [3] posts or until dispersed. Because of the sheer size and intensity of the panther, contact with it can cause severe burns and numbness at the point of contact.

Shougekiha [Shock Wave]
Rank: A
Strength: S
Speed: B
Description: Unlike most lightning-based techniques, this one is slower and easier to dodge, but incredibly devastating on contact. By creating a string of seals, the user creates a flat, vertical disk of black lightning in front of them. This disk is fired straight ahead, leaving a trail of destruction in a conical shape up to [10] meters from the user. Trees, walls, and barriers are fairly easily blown through and treated as full strength against such defenses. However, as the technique is not inherently designed for use on people, the damage dealt to organic targets is [1] rank lower, leaving it still powerful at A-rank but not nearly as devastating.

Ryuuki Boufuuryuu [Rising Dragon Storm]
Rank: S
Strength: S
Speed: S
Description: The user takes aim with both hands, builds up chakra, and then releases a twisting torrent of black lightning at the target at an impressive speed. While twisting, the black lightning will separate and converge, as if dragons clashing during a fight. When the attack finally makes impact the lightning will cluster, swirl, and electrocute a [10] meter area. Then, just as the technique seems to come to an end, the user performs one last hand sign, causing the lightning to coil and spin in a miniature electrical tornado, pulling anything within [20] meters towards it. The dazzling display can cause horrible burns and is likely to knock out if not paralyze anyone caught within.

Kishou Shousa [Weather Manipulation]
Rank: S/X [See below]
Strength: --
Speed: --
Description: The ultimate display of control, the user has learned to temporarily freely manipulate the weather around them. Regardless of the natural atmosphere, they can manifest many different weather effects, effectively turning them into powerful attacks or defenses. It should be noted that the area of effect is not limited to outside, as the user is able to isolate their abilities to relatively closed off areas while within them. The user displays a great level of control over the range and direction of their ability. The user is able to alter the weather of up to a [1] mile radius once every [5] posts for an S-rank cost. From there, an X-rank amount of chakra can be spent to manipulate the weather for both offensive and defensive purposes, like other manipulation techniques. Once the weather effect is created, it lasts for [5] posts before dissipating and returning to however it was previously. Requires [10] paragraphs to learn. Here are some effects:

Rank: S/X [See below]
Strength: --
Speed: --
Description: The ultimate display of control, the user has learned to temporarily freely manipulate the weather around them. Regardless of the natural atmosphere, they can manifest many different weather effects, effectively turning them into powerful attacks or defenses. It should be noted that the area of effect is not limited to outside, as the user is able to isolate their abilities to relatively closed off areas while within them. The user displays a great level of control over the range and direction of their ability. The user is able to alter the weather of up to a [1] mile radius once every [5] posts for an S-rank cost. From there, an X-rank amount of chakra can be spent to manipulate the weather for both offensive and defensive purposes, like other manipulation techniques. Once the weather effect is created, it lasts for [5] posts before dissipating and returning to however it was previously. Requires [10] paragraphs to learn. Here are some effects:
- • Rain: Once manifested, it could rain softly or fiercely, and could even be directed towards a single person. The rain itself seems to have an unusual effects on opponents, as it is able to drain them of their chakra and vitality, while seemingly making them sad as well. For an X-ranked cost, the user can summon varying sizes of very powerful, pressurized, water trenches to either block incoming attacks, restrain, or crush their opponents. They could even create huge water bubbles that attacks opponents with concussive force. Coming from many different directions, each of the attacks could manifest from anywhere within their vicinity, seemingly coming from thin air. The rain's drain is equal to a C-rank per post per victim.
• Snow: The user is able to turn a simple snowfall into a powerful blizzard, enabling them to near instantly freeze everything around them, including people. Requires a cold area, otherwise the snow will turn into rain. Anyone caught in this effect experiences cold-based hazards developing at double their normal rate.
• Lightning: The user can produce large bolts of purple lighting. The lightning could be directed from anywhere, to anywhere the enemy is, and in rapid succession. The lightning is always A-rank in speed, regardless of outside modifiers, but the strength is X-ranked. Should the lightning ever connect, it is powerful enough to instantly kill the target. However, if the user wills it, the lightning can completely obliterate the target, or only shock them.
• Wind: The user is able to fully manipulate the direction and intensity of wind by whistling. They can summon anything from a concentrated tornado, to several whirlwinds at an X-ranked cost. Each of these attacks have the offensive capabilities to slash and wound the intended target.
• Sunlight: The user could also make the sun shine brightly. There are no particular effects associated with this weather effect.
