Clan History:

The Blue Lens

To gain the first lens of the Sokushinbutsu, one must experience absolute focus or zen in the middle of the most strenuous of situations, such as a near death experience, or a massive battle. Following the footsteps of Amida himself. Single minded focus to the point of thoughtlessness. The absolute. The thread must eclipse 3000 words however, and the user at D-rank.

This lens has the power of purification, much like the ancestral completion of the 48 trials. While the Blue Lens is active the Amida is fully aware of any changes to their body or chakra system such as chakra drain, poison, genjutsu.

At the cost of chakra, equal to the rank of the rank of the source + 10, then the effects are nullified. This can also occur when the chakra pathways would normally be completely blocked or if the user is otherwise unable to act. Also, if the effects are from an item or ability of an item, (such as an item causing a genjutsu for one example), then the cost of the dispel is changed to be one rank lower than the source without the additional cost. The Blue Lens costs 10 chakra per post to remain active.

The Red Lens

To unlock the power of this lens, the Amida must experience zen or undivided focus, as described within the Blue Lens in the previous paragraph. The thread wherein this occurs mist eclipse 4000 words and the user must be C-rank.

The Red Lens, also known as the lens of Foresight. Gives the user a passive +1 to dexterity and perception while active.

Due to the advanced predictive powers it gives the Amida. The main power of this lens however is that it functions similar to a sensory technique with one descriptor and it functions as a jutsu equal to the ninja rank of the Amida, but with it's descriptors being able switch on command. For example, the eye can use sound as sensory descriptor but then change to scent. This also includes supernatural senses like chakra, truth telling, etc.. However the switch costs -10 chakra, and this extrasensory ability can only use one descriptor at a time with the base ability of this lens. One important weakness though is that the lens can only adjust itself to so many senses in a short period of time. So the first 4 senses, 2 natural and 2 supernatural, will be the four senses that the Red Lens can sense for the thread. The Red Lens costs 15 chakra per post to keep active.

The Purple Lens

The Purple Lens is somewhat more tricky to unlock than the others. While it requires reaching Zen as the other lenses do, the Purple Lens requires that the Amida maintain this state from the start of the thread to the end. The thread in question must eclipse 5000 words as well the user being B-rank.

The ultimate power of that the Sokushinbutsu has to offer the Amida. While active, twice per post the Amida can choose to greatly enhance one a effect/ability/jutsu they see or sense with their Sokushinbutsu, increasing one of their values to the maximum for the rank of  the source for one post. Alternatively he can send one value of any effect/ability/jutsu he sees or senses with his Third Eye to the minimum of it's rank for it's whole duration. Upon unlocking the Purple Len's, they note in the spoiler for their Purple Len's in their jutsu list whether they are either of the Augment Path or Suppression Path. (Augment being the buffing ability and Suppression being the debuffing ability.) Once that choice is made the Amida must stick with that choice and cannot use the other 'Path'.

It costs -25 chakra per post to keep active. Additionally, if they pay 10 extra chakra, their one of their uses of the Purple Len's can do one of the following effects as well. Though jutsu on which this is used on cannot receive additionally modifications from the Purple while they are active.

• Remove one of the drawbacks of the jutsu while keeping the power. (Self damage, Stat debuffs, need of a catalyst, min. Value of 1-2 ranks below, etc..)
  
  
• Remove other all other preparation / activation requirements other than chakra cost for the jutsu you use this effect on. (So you don't need to channel an attack for 2 posts to activate it. Or dance for one post while singing for two, etc.)
  
  
• Instantly dissolve the equivalent of 1 S rank or lower jutsu within sight of the Sokushinbutsu. This specific option however removes both uses of the Sokushinbutsu for this post. (Also cannot be used if one of the two charges for this post have been exhausted.) Lastly, on their next post they only have one use of their Sokushinbutsu Purple Lens ability.
  

• Biological Limits The Amida are renowned for their usage of the multiple lenses they are blessed with however are not able to use all of them at once. The abilities afforded by specific lenses are restricted to that version of the Sokushinbutsu. While they are able to switch between lenses they have acquired it requires a post of unfocusing their ocular lenses, unable to cast through their third eye at this time.
  
  
• Three Eyes: Once an Amida clansmen unlocks their Sokushinbutsu they become used to the additional information picked up from their third eye, becoming more dependent on it as it grows in strength. For every lens they possess in their jutsu list they receive a -1 to their perception stat when they are unable to use their third eye. (When it’s damaged, switching between lenses, etc…)
  
  
• Sight Reliant: Additionally they receive a -1 to their dexterity to anything not directly in their sight range as they rely heavily on their visual prowess.
  
  
• All Eyes on Zen All Amida members must take the hesitant element SC without balancing it.
  
  
• Triplely Blind: All temporary blind effects gain a +3 post duration against the Sokushinbutsu, but not the Amida's normal eyes. This also triggers the Three Eyes drawback.
