Location: Scattered.

Clan History: The Zozo Clan is a powerful clan consisting of ninjas who possesses impressive strength, speed, agility, reflexes, endurance, and dexterity. This clan is actually the first clan to be at the starting point in Yukigakure, but decided to let their prowess shine elsewhere. They simply rely on short range techniques and close-range combatant kenjutsu. They lead on more as ninja assassins rather than traditional ninjas. They are affiliated with Wind Release-based techniques and excel in the arts of both Kenjutsu and Chakra Flow, using their bare hands as weapons imbued with air pressure for annihilating their enemies. Being based off wind, the Zozo clan's fighting style is precise and fluid that focuses on grace and aerial attacks, almost as if they are not wasting no movement in their strikes. Learning the arts of Kenjutsu and the ways of the sword, they practice swordplay at a young age; age rank for male starting point is at age 5, female age rank is at age 7. They practiced the one basic style of Kenjutsu (Iaidojutsu (Drawing Style) and use those practices to their advantages in close range combat. Learning at a young age and progressing over the years of intense training, the Zozo clan knows no bounds in their way of Kenjutsu. Even though most clans learn the way of the Bushido, the Zozo clan take things to a different stand point, adding their body into the mixture. Learning the way of one's body and mind becoming one with the weapon, the Zozo had a good amount of teaching with Chakra Flow. Letting the spiritual energy around them flow like the river, and show its true prowess, they had learned to focus both chakra and body to be one. They do have decent teachings of Ninjutsu. Knowing to use the chakra as a weapon of power, but not to a certain extent. Since the Zozo Clan like to move with the wind, they based all of their elemental techniques around Fuuton to give them the better edge in sharper cuts with their swords.

Kekkei Genkai Description: Lame de Vent comprises of the Zozo's clan's techniques, based off of Wind Release techniques and Kenjutsu together, imbuing the user's body with saber-like blades made of wind chakra to attack their enemies using the practitioner’s body. Since they have mastery over the arts of basic Kenjutsu, it is mandatory to start with the basic one style (Kenjutsu). Their Wind Release receives a +1 in effectiveness, and they can use Bukijutsu techniques of one rank higher than their rank would allow.

Drawbacks: Since they only excel in close combats, they are very much vulnerable in long range, increasing damage taken from Kyujutsu, Puppetry, Medical, and Genjutsu by 1 rank. Since they focus on Wind Release, they naturally are weak to Katon techniques; they cannot take Fire Release as a specialization, and they take +1 rank in damage from Katon techniques.

Kekkai Genkai Jutsu

Name: コネ一: 風圧全滅 (Koneichi: Fūatsu Zenmetsu ~ Connection 1: Air Pressure Annihilation)
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: C-Rank
Type: Offensive
Element: Wind Release
Range: Short (0-5m) Mid (5-10m)
Specialty: Kenjutsu | Ninjutsu
Duration: -10 to activate and -5 per post for the green energy blades, -7 per post Wind Release imbued sword
Cooldown: 4 posts.
Details: By concentrating chakra into the user's body and focusing the chakra inside into wind, the user can form green energy blades that can slice through most substances, as well as non-Katon items of C-rank or below. The chakra flows upon the user's arms and forms green energy blades from the fingertips, stretching to at least 3 feet at the smallest and 6 feet at the largest. The blades are flexible, as they follow the user's movements and can stretch in any direction, provided the user moves in such a fashion. The chakra that forms around the user's arms takes on the appearance of wind blades, a long string of wind chakra; these blades can cut up to 3 inches into living targets, or clean through most inanimate objects (innate chakra disrupts the blades so as not to let them cut through). The Zozo clan can also use the green energy blades and insert them into the actual blade of their swords, increasing the sharpness of the blades and the cutting depth by 1 inch. The technique is designed to use the human body as a sword itself, or focus it on the sword to make it seem as if there are two blades to one sword.

Name: コネ二: 刃空襲 (Koneni: Hakūshū ~ Connection 2: Sabre Aerial Assault)
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: A-Rank
Type: Offensive
Element: Wind Release
Range: Short (0-5m) Mid (5-10m)
Specialty: Kenjutsu | Ninjutsu
Duration: -20 to activate, -10 per post for the black saber blades, -15 per post for the Wind Release black energy imbued sword.
Cooldown: 8 posts.
Details: By concentrating enough chakra and focusing enough chakra onto the user's arms to tap deeper into the power of blade and body together to change the appearance of the green energy blades, the user can change the green energy blades into black saber-like energy blades, increasing their sharpness to the point that most close-range combat is quite possibly lethal, as they can cut cut clean through a human with a well-aimed strike. The blades can extend from the user for at most 4 feet, but their sharpness in cutting increase makes up for it, enabling the user's arms and legs to become one with the blade of wind. Similar to Connection 1, Connection 2 can also utilize the same for the sword as the Zozo clan's sword takes on the form of a blade as green and black chakra is being flowed from the blade, increasing the sharpness in cutting to the rank and depth of this jutsu.
