Ototon Release

Dabingun (Ventriloquism)
Rank: D
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 3
Chakra Consumption: Low

Dabingun is a Ninjutsu technique utilizing the Sound Release. My collecting chakra in their throat and then manipulating their voice, this technique allows the user to effectively throw their voice across long distances, making it appear as if they were standing wherever the voice comes from.

Note: This technique stays active for the entire post in which it was cast, however will need to be recast every post for further uses.

Muchi Moshi no Jutsu (Supposing Ignorance Technique)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 2
Chakra Consumption: Low

The user forms the hand seals, channeling chakra into their hands. They then touch the target's ear, using the minute sound of the contact to set up a subtle vibration that interferes with the function of the ear, causing a painless sense of temporary deafness. However, the technique is rarely used on enemies, as a directed chakra surge of the same strength, focused on the ears, can very easily break the technique.

Note: This technique renders the victim completely deaf for a maximum of five posts. On the contrary, a single burst of one Mid worth of chakra can shatter this technique. This technique was created by Masakuni.

Akutibu (Sound Hunting Sonar)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Supplementary
Handseals: 4
Chakra Consumption: Mid to cast and sustain

With this technique, the user is capable of enhancing their perception of sound via chakra to an unnatural degree. Though their eyes must remain closed for the technique to work, they are essentially granted an even better vision. Capable of discerning sounds to the faintest of heart beats, this allows the user to locate targets both near and far, even if they are not visible to the naked eye. Acting like a radar, it allows all sound-users to truly have an edge in combat! Its only downfall? Too much noise, making the radar hard to read.

Note: Like all sound-enhancing technique, extremely loud or sharp noises will severely disrupt this process and hinder the user, causing disorientation and or nausea.

Kiai (Scream)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 5
Chakra Consumption: Mid

A very straight forward and offensive technique, scream allows the user to attack multiple targets at once with a powerful, almost deafening scream. The user will need to draw in a deep breath before performing the technique, which will then expand in a five by five meter conical blast of raw sound in front of the user.

Note: This technique induces heavy vomiting, disorientation, lack of balance, lack of overall bodily homeostasis, and panic for a duration of three posts. While screaming, the user must remain still. Moving, in any form (dodging, running, ducking, etc), immediately ends the technique. This technique has a two post cool-down.

Oto Juugan (Sound Bullet)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10M)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 2
Chakra Consumption: Mid per bullet

As the name would imply, the sound bullet technique allows the user to shoot small pockets of sound at their target from any source of sound they create. After forming a few small hand seals, the user will produce a quick intense sound, such as clapping, screaming, or anything that can power the bullets. This is the creation and expulsion of the bullet(s), with the of projectiles varying with how much chakra the user puts into the technique.

Note: The maximum amount of bullets that can be created, per cast, is five.

Kyoumeisen (Resonating Echo Drill)
Rank: C
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: Mid

By using a porous mental device located on one’s arm, the user can feed chakra into the bracer\gauntlet and amplify the sound waves from arm movements to attack their opponent(s). By generating enough sound, the user can focus their chakra to redirect the waves mid-air to their intended target(s). By damaging the victim’s inner ear, the victim is rendered off-balance and nauseous. By sending these sound-waves through solid, inanimate objects, this technique can be used to destroy it (such as a large tree trunk, or a boulder); likewise, this techniques works on water weight and can severely hinder larger, fatter opponents.

Note: This technique requires a device similar to this being worn in order to be used.

Otoken Danmaku (Sound Blade Projectile)
Rank: B
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 4
Chakra Consumption: Higher per blade

Taking the knowledge of their Sound Bullets to the next level, the user has learned to add even more chakra to their sound based projectiles. With this additional boost of energy, the user is also capable of forging these projectiles into even more lethal, effective missiles. Shaped in the form of swords (no longer than three feet, no wider than five inches, and no thicker than an inch) these sound blades are fired off (after clapping, shouting, or performing some sort of movement to facilitate the necessary sound), and using their high-frequency vibrations, cut through surfaces as tough as wood.

Note: The maximum number of blades that can be created, per cast, is five. This technique was created by Izanagi.

Banshou no Kyuumetsu (Sudden Destruction of All Creation)
Rank: S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 8
Chakra Consumption: x2 High

The user forms the hand seals, creating a loud burst of sound such as a scream or a detonation. The user's chakra uses that sound as a medium, creating a massive sound-wave that radiates out from the user, so powerful that it creates visual distortion within its range. The wave impacts with extreme blunt force, followed by violently damaging vibrations. This wave leaves behind an auditory dead-zone, where no sound can be heard until the end of the round.

Note: This technique can only be used once per thread. Using it twice in a single thread will result in permanent damage to the user’s vocal box, rendering them mute. Masakuni.

Buraindo (Sightless)
Rank: S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Passive
Handseals: -
Chakra Consumption: -

Considered to be the pinnacle of the Sound Release Ninjutsu, this technique essentially increases the user’s natural hearing by drastic degrees. With this, the user can essentially “see” the world around them via the vibrations from sound, creating a very detailed and exact map of their surroundings. This technique has been said to be favored among shinobi who have been blinded by one means or another, as it allows them to still fight with a incredibly renown.

Note: This technique essentially grants the user selective hearing, to which they can decrease or increase with astounding proficiency up to a maximum of twenty meters from their person. With their eyes closed, this ability gives them the ability to “see” the world around them as if they had eyes. Unnaturally loud or sharp noises (high-frequency whistles, or explosions) severely disrupt this ability and, in most situations, distort the user’s perception.
