Clan: Ninneko Clan
Kekkei Genkai: Bakeneko Transformation Technique
Elements: N/A
Specialization: Taijutsu
Location: Konoha
Clan History: The Ninneko traditionally, were a group of old, powerful and well respected felines from a castle fortress in the district of Heaven of Konohagakure. However several generations ago many former Ninneko bonded with a particular clan of human ninja in order to join more closely with the ninja world, and thus, over time, many of their more ancient ways and much of their former strength were lost as they forgot their traditions in lieu of the traditions of the human world. Making the separatist Ninneko more adept seijutsu pets, and more open to the world.
While those who separated from those now known as the 'nekomata' lost what it was to be a Ninneko, those who remained retained their former strength, keeping their traditions and Hiden arts alive through an almost cult like secrecy, retaining the ability to become Bakeneko at will, and more complete than the likes of the Nekomata Felines. The cats of the Ninneko clan are known to be much stronger than their Seijutsu pet variants, and comparable in power and in strength to human ninja of their rank, their feline demeanor and ability to talk to cats or people making them potent spies and hidden agents for other countries.
The clan in recent days operates an expansive spy network for Konohagakure, working for a mixture of both the Hokage and the Daimyo, not particularly more aligned to either. Though it is known that many of the clan, though not all possess a certain distrust, dislike and even sometimes a hate for the Inuzuka and Nekomata clans, and to a lesser extent other Seijutsu clans.
Kekkei Genkai Description:
Members of the Ninneko clan come in many shapes, colours and sizes, though, by and large they tend to grow no bigger than 2-3 feet long from the tip of their nose to the backs of their feet. However, they are far from an average house cat in physiology, being able to stand and fight just as aptly on two legs as they can on four, and more than able to fight with Taijutsu or specially altered Bukijutsu weapons with their uniquely prehensile paws as well as within their mouths.
Though, while other felines require a catalyst in the form of a transformation talisman to become a dreaded Bakeneko, the Ninneko never lost their Hiden ability to transform to and from their ultimate form. At A rank, after a 5k word training thread, the Ninneko clan member is able to use the Bakeneko transformation technique; An S rank jutsu of considerable strength and renown which alters their form into a two tailed feline of incredible power.
- Feline Anatomy // Augmentation: Members of the Ninneko clan receive +1 tier to Speed, Reaction Time and Perception.
- Feline Anatomy // Tapetum Lucidum: Due to their unique eyes, Ninneko clan members able to see in the lowest of lights flawlessly without the need for chakra.
- Feline Anatomy // Tail: Due to their long prehensile tail, Ninneko clan members always land on their feet when thrown, so long as their tail is not bound broken or severed.
- Feline Anatomy // Claws: Ninneko clan members have 1/2 inch claws which are considered weapons which are considered to be/ deal damage equal to one rank below the users ninja rank which, when the ninja is C rank, is able to cut their maximum length of 1/2 an inch into their opponent.
Drawbacks:
- Members of the Ninneko clan receive -1 tier to Strength and -2 tiers to Endurance
- Ninneko receive +1 rank of damage from Suiton techniques.
- After being hit with an offensive Suiton Technique of B rank strength or higher, the Ninneko suffers -1 tier to reaction speed for 3 turns due to their fear of water.
- Finally, Ninneko clan members must take Pharmacophobia as a negative special characteristic and are unable to balance it with a further positive, as medical techniques are most often made for human physiology in mind, as opposed to feline.

Kekkei Genkai Jutsu:
- Bakeneko Transformation Technique:
Name: Bakeneko Transformation Technique (Henkan gihō - Bakeneko 変換技法-化け猫)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: S
Type: Offensive - Supplementary
Element: N/A
Range: Self
Specialty: KKG
Duration: Maintainable (30 chakra per turn)
Cool down: Duration +4
Description: (Requires 5k training word count to learn and 40 chakra to use & 30 per turn to maintain.)
Bakeneko are fearsome cats which stand at gigantic heights, standing at 15m tall when fully upright and have tails which split into two, but here the similarities end... each Nekomata's Bakeneko is exceedingly different from colour, shape, and the chakra which plumes from their bodies can look like anything, from radiating blue or gold flames, to streams of smoke like chakra. Though, any wounds attained before transformation grow to ratio, and likewise, any wounds attained while grown, shrink to ratio.
The Ninneko activating their KKG, overflows their body with Yang Release, pushing it to an extreme and amplifying it with their own chakra, growing much like the members of the Akimichi Clan... Growing to 18m long from the tip of their nose to the backs of their legs, the Bakeneko is capable of moving at 45mp/s and bares 1/2 meter long claws and teeth capable of rending men, wood, stone and steel apart before it, while being strong enough to crush bones.
Finally, the Yang chakra empowering the form of the Ninneko also flows into the chakra of the techniques they use while they have changed form. While not effecting their power, this increases the size effect radius and range of jutsu cast while in Bakeneko form by 10m. Making this technique, one of the more frightening Techniques in the ninja world. Though, Ninneko exiting this form are left in a very weakened state, all jutsu costing +5 chakra to use and maintain for 5 turns afterwards.

White chakra in similar nature to chakra scalpels extends from the wrist in 5 lines across their natural paws to envelop their claws like a scabbard and pushes out an additional 5 inches from their natural length, hooking into lethal looking blades, increasing the potency of their own claws and making the cats whole paw look like a lethal chakra weapon.- C Rank: Increases the Cutting depth of the claws by +1.5 inches (To a total of 2" cuts.)

Description: Flowing chakra into their ears, eyes and whiskers, the Ninneko clan member is able to enhance their sight, hearing and sensitivity of their whiskers to be able to hear, see and feel motion within the radius of the jutsu to the equivalent of a B rank sensory technique. This allows the Ninneko to have an almost purrfect mapping of all within the radius of the jutsu, and is able to see through B rank or lower Stealth techniques with relative ease.
- Debilitating Strike:
Name: Debilitating Strike
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: B
Type: Offensive
Element: N/A
Range: Touch
Specialty: Taijutsu
Duration: Instant

Description: The Ninneko at 30mp/s swipes at an opponent with their claws, which, with a direct hit (this must be an unguarded, non glancing blow which does not hit armour) of this technique, cuts an artery or vein which overlaps a pressure point within their opponent. The blow dealing a light 1/4 inch cut which is barely noticeable, but the nicking the sensitive zone, causes the victim to bleed, the sensitive point being struck making the victim feel ill after a few seconds. Every second post after the victim was afflicted, they lose a single point of reaction speed due to the blood-loss until the wound is healed. After 8 posts, the victim faints.
The damage can be healed by any rank of medical ninjutsu.
