Kekkei Genkai Description:

Clan Training:

First of all, the Higa have the uncanny ability to move each eye independently of the other, known as Chameleon Sight (蜥蜴視, Toka-geshi). Their retinal structure allows for close-to-binocular vision when looking in opposite directions, but still results in a -1 to visual Perception. Their eyes are set slightly farther apart than normal for most humans, and this results in a total horizontal visual range of about 200 degrees, compared to the average 180.

Second, this Ocular Jutsu is less of a developed technique and more of a mutation. The change happens rather drastically and suddenly, and can be brought on by a time of much stress or intense emotion. The thread in which this occurs must be at least 5000 words long. The newly-developed eyes must be treated with 1000 ryo's worth of medical care; before that time, the Higa is considered to have the Blind Special Characteristic.

When they do, they are gifted with the ability to see into the parts of the light spectrum nearest to the visible colors: infrared and ultraviolet. Infrared vision allows them to detect heat signatures, both those of living organisms and in general those generated by kinetic energy. Ultraviolet vision allows them to detect substances normally invisible to normal sight, such as cleaned-off blood stains. Together, they are treated as a sensory technique of 2 ranks below the Higa's own rank.

This mutation, however, can be trained further. A D-rank ninja can train for 3000 words to unlock the talent of weaving signs with their eye movements. This is done by accumulating chakra in the eyes, and moving each eye in specific directions to mould that chakra much like hand signs would.

Drawbacks: Due to their supernatural sensitivity to the extravisual light spectra, they receive a -1 to all stats save for Endurance and non-sight Perception. In addition, all techniques or items that target the sense of sight with bright illumination have their effectiveness improved, lasting 1 more post.

To be able to pool chakra in their eyes so effectively, the Higa store some there permanently; if an eye is stolen or crushed, they lose 10 chakra for each.

When their eyes mutate, not only the eyes but the optic nerves and occipital lobe change. In addition, the specific changes to the eye's range of movement are in the skulls of the Higa. Thus, their Kekkei Genkai requires three times the normal amount of WC and surgery to implant (or double if they choose to not use Chameleon Sight); otherwise, it has a 5/10 success rate.

Members: None currently.
