Symbol:
Clan: Murasaki hoshiKekkei Genkai: Kyodai Sensu
Elements: Wind (must be primary specialty)
Specialization: Ninjutsu, Bukijutsu (Tessenjutsu)
Location: Sunagakure
Clan History:
Kyodai Sensu, literally 'Giant Folding Fan' is skill taught exclusively to Shinobi of the Hidden Sand Village and that anyone with the right elemental affinity can learn. What this means is that, rather than a bloodline limit, Kyodai Sensu is a secret art which enables the ninja to fight using iron fans at all ranges.
The discipline dates back to the foundation of the village and has since then been the pride of the Wind Country. Murasaki Hoshi refers to the purple circles painted on the open surface of the fan, which are called stars. It is said that the strength of the gust that the fan can generate depends on how many stars are being shown at the moment of execution. When closed, the fan can be used as a club to hit at close range. Its metal body makes it quite resistant and, contrary to one's expectations, it can block weapons like kunai with its open surface and be lodged on the ground
Originally taught to a select few, the style had a boom during the Forth Shinobi War. Like certain other disciplines, their members are not forced to adopt the name of the clan and can keep their original family without any kind of issue. Many Tessenjutsu users do this and some even removed their surnames entirely, being called only by their first name.
Kekkei Genkai Description:
1. Members of the clan get a free C-rank Iron Fan upon creation. Despite having little direct combat power, it is capable of creating gusts of wind on its own, although its not enough to directly harm objects or individuals, but they'll be pushed back if close enough to the Tessenjutsu user. Small, non-enhanced projectiles of equal rank to the fan will be knocked aside and fall close to their intended target, while those of lower rank will be blown away completely.
If the user has a Strength of equal rank to the fan or tier-3 of 1 rank lower, a Kyodai-Sensu is able to blow back those in its gust 2 meters per rank up. (A C-rank fan will blow back enemies 6 meters.) Shinobi with Endurance at least equal to the fan's rank or of tier-3 of one rank below will be pushed back on their feet, while those of lower Endurance will most likely lose balance and fall down. If caught in the air, the target will be pushed back farther, but no more than two meters.
2. When using the fan to attack, all Wind Jutsus require no hand seals, being able to be activated near-instantly by swinging the fan, and have a cool-down of one turn less. As a specific benefit, the drawback of 'Wind Release: Great Breakthrough' is lost (It's generated from the fan instead).
Drawbacks:
1. Members cannot have a fourth specialization.
2. Members cannot learn styles of Bukijutsu other than Tessenjutsu, or form contracts with animals other than Weasels.
3. When wielding an open fan, the members of the clan move a tier slower than their actual Speed stat. By leaving the fan behind or folding it, this weakness can be counteracted. A fan can only be folded when one is not under attack. In other words, if the Tessenjutsu user gets attacked and his fan is open, his speed will be considered one rank lower. He won't be able to fold the fan until the attack is either taken, blocked or dodged, meaning the player can't get rid of the speed penalty by folding the fan before the opponent's jutsu lands.
4. Members of this clan cannot normally use Wind Jutsus without their fan. They must train them writing 25% more words if they want to be able to do it.
Members: None, at the moment.
