Aburame Clan

NAME: Parasitic Insect.
RANK: 5.
LIMITS: Aburame Clan.
DESCRIPTION: The Parasitic Destruction Insect Technique is a practice exclusive to the Aburame clan. When a child is born into the clan, their bodies are offered to insects to be used as a nest. Over the years, as the child grows, they are instructed in the clan’s techniques of the clan and pan how the insects may be used in combat. Most Aburame are inhabited by Kikaichū, however, the clan does not limit themselves to the use of just one type of insect. There are others, but they are rare and thus very few members have these rare insects within their body.

NAME: Insect Clone Technique.
RANK: C.
ELEMENT: None.
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu. Hiden.
DESCRIPTION: Insect Clone Technique allows the user to gather thousands of Kikaichū in one place where they are then take on the appearance of the user or anyone else the user wishes. The technique is good enough that one would mistake the clone for the real thing, and thus the clone can be used as a decoy or as a diversion. Furthermore, since one can put the insects in standby mode somewhere beforehand and then have them assume the form of a clone later instead of right away, the technique is sometimes considered more effective than the Shadow Clone Technique, though it heavily depends on the situation. When struck, the clone falls apart, transforming back into bugs, but since it’s made of insects, it can be reformed.

The major downside of this technique happens to be the obvious way to get rid of the clones without having to get close and personal with said clone, and that’s through a fire release technique. Another one is the simple fact that the bugs on standby can only be in that mode for two post before they must be formed into the clone or the user has wasted their chakra. The clone itself only last for three post, but requires a charge up time of one post, thus this technique cannot be used at the drop of a hat. On top of that, the clones don’t have a very good range, traveling a max of ten meters from the user. Only one clone can be formed per usage.

NAME: Insect Jamming Technique.
RANK: C.
ELEMENT: None.
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu. Hiden.
DESCRIPTION: Insect Jamming Technique allows the user to spread a large amount of Kikaichū over a wide area around themselves. These insects, instead of being used for offensive purposes like seeking out the target, they emit a small amount of their respective host chakra that they usually feed on. This at first doesn’t seem like much, but against a sensor-type shinobi, the technique can confuse an inexperienced person, as the insects irregular distribution and grouping together results in the creation of numerous false images or chakra signals, thus making it harder to locate the user’s actual location. The insects themselves can only travel a short distance from the user, the max being ten meters.

The major downside of this technique is the simple fact that sensor’s can still pinpoint the user so long as the sensor’s reflex stat is a tier higher than the user’s chakra control stat. The technique itself requires a charge up time of one post due to the amount of Kikaichū needed, but it will last four post before going into a two post cool down.

NAME: Insect Sphere Technique.
RANK: A.
ELEMENT: None.
CLASSIFICATION: Ninjutsu. Hiden.
DESCRIPTION: Insect Sphere Technique allows the user to cover their target’s entire body with their Kikaichū. The chakra sensing Kikaichū are spread over a wide range, and upon finding the intended target, they will converge on that target as the user had ordered. The insects completely surround the target, making a globe around them before attacking all at once. With the target restrained, the Kikaichū begin eating away the target’s chakra, and if the target doesn’t escape, they face death. Drains 10 chakra points from the target per turn.

The major downside of this technique is it’s weakness to fire users, for they can easily burn the insects to a crisp even after they have been surrounded. A target with a strength stat a tier higher than the user’s chakra control stat can break out of the prison, though they will be pursued by the insects. Of course folks can also outrun the bugs, the bugs themselves moving at a speed a tier lower than the user’s chakra control stat. Perhaps the most glaring weakness is the duration time, the technique can only last four post before it automatically ends with the death of the Kikaichū, the user must also charge up for a post before the technique can be used. Upon the technique ending, it goes into a three post cool down and thus cannot be used in quick succession.
