Rabā
Gomu-Sei no Body (Rubber Body)
Bloodline Ability: The users of this clan have been given the rare ability to stretch their bodies like rubber. Though there are restrictions with this, being the that the users cannot swim.
Each rank corresponds with how much the body can stretch at a time:
Genin: 10 ft
Chuunin: 20 ft
Sp Jounin: 30 ft
Jounin: 40 ft
S Rank/Kage: 50ft
Legendary: 60ft
Note: This is the total stretch limit, meaning if a genin stretches their neck 5 feet, they can only stretch another 5 feet with any body part. The speed of stretching corresponds with the speed of punches at their rank. I.E// A genin can only stretch at 20% speed compared to an S Rank who can stretch at 100%.
Gia Sekando (Gear Second) - The second part of the Kekkai Genkai reached at Jounin. To be able to even use it a 1000 word training topic is required because of its effects. The heartbeat accelerates to a rapid pace, giving the blood stream more oxygen and other nutrients. This makes the clan members 40% faster. It can be used for however long the user feels, but the consequences grow the longer it is used. 5 posts can be done without major damage, just the loss of all energy which means something high in calories is needed to be eaten or the user will pass out. It can be used for a period of time after, but the damage to the body increases as they do so. 1 post can be done with minor damage, only minor muscle fatigue(800 word hospital topic) 2 posts after, the muscles start to tear apart(1200 word training topic) At 3 posts, the muscles rip to shreds and the only thing keeping the user from not moving is pure adrenaline(1600 words). 4 posts after the heart begins to gain heavy stress and is at risk of failing and all muscles are almost completely useless, slowing the user 80% (2000 word recovery). At the final stage, 10 posts after the start and 5 from the safe zone, the user's heart explodes from the stress, causing death. Many kekkai genkai jutsu can be varied using this, but those techniques will need to be registered and purchased separate.
Gia Sādo (Gear Third) - The final part of the Kekkai Genkai available to only true masters of the clan at S Rank. To use the skill, a 1500 word training topic must be done to master the full effects. When used, the user bites onto their thumb joint to make a small hole. This hole is used to inflate the bones of the arm to the size of 15 feet in diameter, which can be distributed throughout the body. It increased strength of the user by 60% but at the cost of mobility, dropping speed by 40%. Because of the massive defensive boost, D and C Rank taijutsu moves glance off and all other are dropped by 20%. This can only be used once every week because of the great strain it puts on the body along with a 1500 word hospital topic to recover from the strain. Lasts for 6 posts. Variations of kekkai genkai moves can be made, but are required to have them approved and purchased separate.
Clan History: The clan history of the Rabā clan is that of a myth. The origin of the clan is unknown, but as the legend has it, Sage Sanibi found a mysterious fruit while on one of his travels through the provinces. Starving, he ate it in hope of satisfying his hunger, but instead was granted with magic powers that greatly aided his taijutsu skills. From this point in time he adopted the name Rabā and settled down, passing his skills onto the next generation. Over time the story has been contorted and twisted, but the one thing that stayed fact was the abilities of the Rabā clan.
More recently, the clan was re-discovered, the abilities claimed to have died off hundreds of years back. An ordinary man walking in the mountains of Jokigakure slipped and began to fall to his death, but by a miracle, grabbed hold of a rock and stretched his body on complete accident. After realizing his great power, he decided the he would become a ninja in the small village the he was traveling through. He did as he said and became a ninja and eventually the first kage of Jokigakure, placing the village on the map for the first time.
The relations of the clan members was great with the other villagers, all seeming to get along for the most part. Only minor problems arose like a clan member was caught using their stretching skills to get an apple from a vendor, but like true human nature, power lust forced conflict to arise in the peaceful nation. The Hono clan, the clan that was in the village from the start felt threatened by the new power and began a subtle uprising among themselves, waiting to strike for the right time.
A yearly festival was started when Taiya Rabā took office, this was the striking time. When the crowd grew in the central square, the leader of the Hono began the strike that lead to all out rioting and the battling between kage and ANBU captain. Taiya and Tyrus Hono began the battle of a life time, though the kage knew he was going to die. He stretched himself as wide as he could, wrapping himself completely around the Hono who had entered the final stage of their forbidden technique. The shock wave from the fire blast destroyed the plateau that Jokigakure was located on, leaving behind the crater of what was left. Taiya managed to use his stretching to seal away the forbidden Katon technique along with Tyrus. After the great fight, the Hono took control and the Rabā left the village to become wanderers, which is what they remain to this very day.
The rivalry between the two clans is still great, though the Rabā have moved on instead of stewing over the past. They roam the country sides and through the provinces aiming to find a new place to call home, but the true intent is to soon be welcome in the village they once ruled.

Genin (D Rank)
Name: Gomu no Pisutoru (Rubber Pistol)
Rank of Jutsu: D
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: 10ft/Close
Description: Instead of hand seals, the user must spend a one post time spinning his arm in circles at a rapid pace. After this charge, the users arm will fly back to 10ft and is then propelled forward with a great force (20mph).

Name: Gomu no Fūsen (Rubber Balloon)
Rank of Jutsu: D
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: Self
Description: Instead of hand seals, the user spends a one post time period of inhaling as much as air as possible. This allows the user to stretch their body into a balloon like shape (8ft is the stretch limit). By doing this, the user is able to become 20% more resistant to taijutsu moves and basic weapons, making them bounce off the skin. The air can also be exhaled at the ground to give the user a temporary state of flight. While in this state, the speed of the user is reduced 20%. Lasts 2 posts, cool down of 4.
Name: Gomu no Muchi (Rubber Whip)
Rank of Jutsu: D
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: 10ft/Close
Description: Passive. The user can perform a wide sweep kick by stretching their leg 10ft, allowing them to strike multiple enemies at once.

Chuunin (C Rank)
Name: Gomu no Kane (Rubber Bell)
Rank of Jutsu: C
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: 5ft/Close
Description: One post charge. After the propper charge, the user will latch onto an enemy and wrap their arms and legs around the foe, preventing them from moving. This makes it so the user can stretch their neck back 5ft and then slam it into the victim's head. The force of the impact hits hard enough to leave a concussion and also dazes the target and the user for 3 posts. A side effect on the victim is the deafening sound of ringing bells in their ears for the period of the daze. Cool down of 5 posts.
Name: Gomu no Ono (Rubber Battle Axe)
Rank of Jutsu: C
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: 12ft/Close
Description: Charge required. After a charge, the user stretches their leg into the air 12ft and then slams it down with devastating force. The speed of the dropping leg is 35mph and has the capability to leave small craters on the ground and severely bruise skin, muscle, and bone. It is also not uncommon to see this technique break through iron with great ease. When used, the leg does not swing in an arc like Gomu no Muchi, but directly below, much like a stretched rubber band returning to its normal shape. Cool down of 6 posts.
Special Jounin (B Rank)
Name: Gomu no Bazuuka (Rubber Bazooka)
Rank of Jutsu: B
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: Refer to Kekkai Genkai
Description: Charge equal to handseals. After the charge, the user sends chakra into the palms of their hands (hands must be together), giving them extreme hitting force. Once the user slams their palms into the target. Unlike standard B rank tajutsu, which usually bruise bone and severely bruise skin and muscle, this taijutsu can snap bones into multiple pieces. If the user slams both hands into a single target (Base of palms need to be touching for this effect to occur), organs up to six inches from the impacted area are ruptured and bones are broken. With the force, strikes can knock people back or even send them flying through the air. If a target is firmly planted, they are send back up to 10 feet, but if them are not or are in air, then they can be sent back up to 40 feet. 5 post cool down.
Name: Gomu no Raifuru (Rubber Rifle)
Rank of Jutsu: B
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: 10ft/Close
Description: Charge equal to hand seals. After the charge, the user stretches an arm back in a similar manner to Gomu no Pisutoru, but instead twists the arm. The arm goes back 10ft and once the punch is throws, the twist begins to unwind, making a motion similar to a drill. On contact this jutsu has the ability to severely bruise the skin, muscle, and even bone, but has the added effect of tearing the skin in the direct vicinity of the punch off to the muscle. The punch is thrown at 30mph, but the drilling motion is 45mph. Cool down of 7 posts
Jounin (A Rank)
Name: Gomu no Gaturingu Gan (Rubber Gatling Gun)
Rank of Jutsu: A
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: Refer to Kekkai Genkai
Description: Charge equal to hand seals. After a charge, the user sends chakra into their arms to increase punching speed, making them able to fire off over three punches in a second for ten seconds total. The force of the punches are light in comparison to other taijutsu techniques, having only the power to bruise skin, muscle, and bone but makes up for it in sheer amount of hits that can be laid. If hit multiple times in the same spots, bone can fracture or break. Internal organs can rupture. Disorientation is also common if a hit is laid to the head. The more hits laid, the further back the target is pushed to the maximum distance both arms can go (half of overall stretching distance). If a wall or other obstacle is in the way, a large dent, up to three feet deep can be formed from the slamming into it. Cool down of 6 posts.
S Rank
Name: Gomu no Sutōmu (Rubber Storm)
Rank of Jutsu: S
Element Affinity: N/A
Type: Taijutsu
Distance: Self/Close
Description: Charge equal to hand seals. After the charge, the user inflates their body to 15ft in size like the Fuusen technique. After doing this, they twist their body into a tight coil. Using the air from the inflation, the user launches into the air at a speed of 50mph and begins to unwind and fire a salvo of punches at a rapid pace, similar to that of Gomu no Gaturingu Gan. The speed of the punches is so great, that six punches are fired per second for a period of fifteen seconds(90 punches total), each punch capable of fracturing bones and leaving severe bruising. When multiple punches hit the same area, bones will break, organs can rupture, and if pressed against an obstacle, then punches have the force to press them 10 feet into it. Because of the strenuous force of the technique though, severe fatigue hits the user after use, slowing all skill by 40% for 4 posts. Once per topic.
