Ironborne
Yōton Release: Gomu style
Bloodline Ability: The ability of the Ironborne clan is a nature transformation kekkei genkai, the kekkei genkai fuses two elements together to create a completely new element. The ability combines earth and fire chakras together to create lava but this is no ordinary lava, instead of becoming a blazing destructive force it becomes a much less noticeable version. With this combination the user of said ability can create vulcanized rubber which is quite durable in the right hands, this ability allows for the user to make a variety of different things from rubber ranging from balls, ropes and even walls to block attacks. Unlike the other known users of the lava Release, Gomu style is not only shown to emit the substance from their mouth, but is also able to create it externally. Due to the nature of their style and kekkei genkai the Ironborne are only able to utilize lava release in it's rubberized state.
Clan History: The Ironborne clan was once nothing more than a simple group of people that came together for protection, these people were nomads that traveled from place to place seeking a place to live in peace. Within time the group became more of a family supporting one another and eventually something happened that no one expected, a new kind of person was born with more than just the usual elements that most had. The child was born with the ability to make an element that had never been seen before, this element was lava release but in the form of vulcanized rubber making a completely new set of abilities. At first the nomad group believed that it was just a fluke or anomaly but soon others appeared with the same kekkei genkai within the group over the years, with this the nomad group became a prime target for the villages.
The villages were of course interested in obtaining this kekkei genkai for themselves and at first tried to peacefully persuade the group to join their village but when declined they became less polite with their attempts. Soon they were under attack by multiple different groups and they did their best to defend themselves, but this group was not a fighting group and soon their numbers dwindled to only a few. The few that were still living were the core group of the new element and they new they were close to becoming extinct, yet in the darkest of times they were saved. In the midst of a losing battle the nomad group was rescued by a group of powerful shinobi from the village of Jokigakure, these shinobi asked for nothing in return they simply saw someone who needed help. The nomad group decided that it was time to settle down or risk being destroyed and since they owed a debt to the village they decided to join them. They have settled there for generations now serving the village under the adopted name of Ironborne with a distinct tattoo upon each members flesh, the clan symbol is added to the body at a young age.

Also due to not being a conductor electricity at D rank cannot shock the user though slashing or piercing techniques will go right through it. The boots help the user jump higher by turning them into a bouncy ball basically adding about an extra twenty feet to their jumping power.

Rank of Jutsu: D
Element Affinity: Yoton/Lava
Type: Ninjutsu, Supplementary.

Cooldown: 3 posts
Chuunin (C Rank)
Name: Gomutoku (Rubber Shield)

Type: Ninjutsu, Defensive.
Distance: Close range.
Description: The user expels a sizable amount of rubber from their mouth in the form of a shield in front of them to block attacks like a wall, the shield if very effective at taking blunt force trauma. Even C rank taijutsu techniques can't break through it though B rank can, it can also be used to block up to C rank fire or lava techniques though any higher and the rubber will melt. Also due to not being a conductor electricity at C rank or lower cannot shock the user though slashing or piercing techniques will go right through it. Chakra flow weapons can pierce or slash through the wall though. The wall is ten feet tall and ten feet wide across and five feet thick, giving it the ability to protect the user quite easily with it's size, normal weapons such as kunai, shuriken and swords will bounce off the chakra reinforced rubber wall.
Cooldown: 5 posts
Name: Gomuyari (Rubber Spear)
Rank of Jutsu: C
Element Affinity: Yoton/Lava
Type: Ninjutsu, Offensive.
Distance: Mid range.
Description: The user wraps a large amount of the vulcanized rubber around their arms, this in turn makes their arms look much larger than they actually are. This is not for a strength increase but instead it increases the range of the users taijutsu strikes, the user can stretch the hard rubber out to hit an opponent that would usually be out of range. This is also useful for reaching things that they could not before as well, with this they can also absorb the shock of physical blows quite easily even weakening C rank taijutsu to almost nothing. Also due to not being a conductor electricity at C rank or lower cannot shock the user though slashing or piercing techniques will go right through it. The maximum length the rubber can stretch is twenty five feet.
Cooldown: 5 posts
Special Jounin (B Rank)
Name: Gomudama
Rank of Jutsu: B
Element Affinity: Yoton/Lava
Type: Ninjutsu, Supplementary.
Distance: Close range.
Description: The user expels a large glob of lava from their mouth, which quickly solidifies into a hollow ball that can be used to protect an object by surrounding it with the durable rubber-like material. The properties of this substance mean that it can both absorb and dissipate the force behind a blow when struck, resulting in it either deforming or bouncing upon impact.
A skilled user of this technique, such as Dodai, is capable of making it appear as if they were intending to protect an object or individual within the sphere, when in fact they merely use the ball as a distraction in order to occupy an enemy, while instead covertly withdrawing the item in question from the ball during its formation. Also due to not being a conductor electricity at B rank or lower cannot shock the user though slashing or piercing techniques will go right through it.
Cooldown: 7 posts
Name: Gomuheki
Rank of Jutsu: B
Element Affinity: Yoton/Lava
Type: Ninjutsu, Defensive.
Distance: Close range.
Description: The user creates an enormous torrent of lava from the ground directly in front of them, which then forms into a wall possessing immense durability due to its rubbery consistency that allows the material to deform when attacked, meaning it can both absorb and dissipate the force behind a blow rather than just simply obstruct it. This technique can also be used to provide reinforcement to a preexisting barrier. Also due to not being a conductor electricity at B rank or lower cannot shock the user though slashing or piercing techniques will go right through it.
Cooldown: 7 posts
Jounin (A Rank)
Name: Gomukuro-n (Rubber clone)
Rank of Jutsu: A
Element Affinity: Yoton/Lava
Type: Ninjutsu, Supplementary.
Distance: All ranges.
Description: The user expels a large amount of rubberized lava from their mouth to form a perfect clone of themselves down to the last detail. The clone is immune to all but S rank taijutsu as it absorbs the majority of the force behind the blows, fire and lava techs ranked A or above can melt the clone. Electricity will have little to no effect at A rank or lower unless it is a piercing or cutting technique, ice can of course freeze and shatter the clone. Other than it's obvious strengths the clone is still destroyed like a normal clone, weapons like sword can even cut through the clone, jutsu of lower levels can also destroy it if they can pierce, freeze, cut etc etc the clone.
Cooldown: 10 posts, twice a topic
S Rank
Name: Gomubugu (Rubber Armor)
Rank of Jutsu: S
Element Affinity: Yoton/Lava
Type: Ninjutsu, Offensive, Defensive.
Distance: Close range.
Description: The user summons the rubberized lava from the ground and it wraps around them perfectly forming a suit of armor around them. The user basically becomes a giant rubber ball bouncing off of anything they hit including people, even damage from S rank taijutsu techniques is halved due to the rubber armor. The user is immune to all shocking electrical attacks unless it directly touches flesh, in this form the user can block up to A rank fire techniques and B rank lava techniques, anything higher will melt the armor away. This armor does not increase the speed or strength of the user, it is more defensive than offensive though it can be offensive as well.
With this armor the user can stretch it out to strike at the opponent, even going as far as to stretch the head piece out to strike the opponent with a head butt. The user does not actually stretch instead the rubber around them does in the shape of the users fists, feet, head etc etc. Normal weapons like shuriken, kunai, swords will rebound off the rubberized armor unless they have been reinforced with chakra as well. All weapons of steel grade and lower cannot puncture it, all other weapons can.
Cooldown: Once per topic
