Amaterasu Path

Name: Katon: Great Fireball Technique
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: C
Element: Katon
Type: Ninjutsu
Range: 50 feet
Description: A technique where chakra kneaded inside the body is converted into fire, and expelled from the mouth in a massive orb of roaring flame. The scope of the attack is altered by controlling the volume of chakra that is mustered. The released flames will engulf their target, and leave a crater on the ground's surface. At its largest, Goukyaku no Jutsu is 10 feet in diameter, and can travel at 30 mph. Four post cooldown.

Name: Katon: Phoenix Sage Art Technique
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: C
Element: Katon
Type: Ninjutsu
Range: 50 feet
Description: This jutsu can create up to ten fireballs that are each six inches in diameter, which are spat out of the user's mouth, flying wildly in every direction and assaulting the enemy. In addition, the flames are controlled one by one with chakra, so avoiding them all is extremely difficult. Shuriken can be hidden within the flames, creating an unexpected secondary surprise attack. Like the flames, the shuriken can be controlled with chakra. For the most part, however, this technique is used as a distraction, and can cause up to second degree burns on contact with skin. Each fireball moves at 20 mph to allow control of one fireball at a time. Requires handseals. Three post cooldown.

Name: Amaterasu
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: S
Element: Blaze
Type: Ninjutsu
Range: Within Eyesight
Description: Amaterasu is a black flame ninjutsu that can only be activated using the Mangekyou Sharingan of a ninjutsu specialist ninja. It is said that it can burn anything, even non-combustible materials. There is, however, a huge limit to this ninjutsu ability. It uses a large amount of chakra to burn through objects, and each post used will make it more and more likely that the user will suffer blindness.
Amaterasu always costs S-rank chakra at the beginning, and each subsequent post of Amaterasu fire costs a ranked amount of chakra, starting with D-rank.
S-rank: 1st post-outer-most clothing begins to burn.
D-rank: 2nd post used-outer-most clothing gone, second layer begins to burn.
C-rank: 3rd post used-second layer gone, third begins to burn.
B-rank: 4th post used-third layer gone, fourth begins to burn.
A-rank: 5th post used-fourth layer gone, fifth begins to burn.
S-rank: 6th post used-fifth layer gone, sixth begins to burn.
Any after 6th post is S D, S C, but honestly, who has 6 layers of clothing?
Heat- and fire-resistant clothing does have an impact on Amaterasu by slowing the burn, for example:
1st post- outer-most clothing begins to burn.
2nd post- outer-most clothing still burning.
3rd post- outer-most clothing gone, second layer begins to burn.
This increases the survivability of Amaterasu significantly, but it still makes it difficult to defeat. It is also possible to drain all chakra from a foe who uses Amaterasu, but instead of fainting like a person normally would, they both faint and lose any ability to use Amaterasu through total blindness. If the clothing that is burning is removed before the Amaterasu fire has burned all the way through, the fire is defeated. If the fire catches the opponent's skin, however, the opponent has lost the match automatically. This technique may only be used twice in a topic, with a ten post cooldown.
