Bloodline Ability: 1)Cellular/Spiritual Manipulation{Primary sword stalker clan ability}: Description: Throughout history members of this clan have been well renounced amongst the world of shinobi as the deviants of spirituality mainly because of the history of their clan and the ability well known as, Cellular/ Spiritual Manipulation. This technique passive technique works when a sword stalker’s chakra makes contact with the opponent(s)’s flesh wound(s). When this happens, the eyes of the sword stalker(Chishio Torokeru Metsuki) are forcefully activated( doesn’t necessarily mean their eyes have to be open) and causes the chakras to be automatically sent into the wound(s) of the opponent(s), from that one moment of contact, to gain complete control over every cell in the wounded area. The chakra infected cells spread throughout the whole body like a virus, contaminating other neighboring cells as time passes. This ability among other sword stalker abilities many uses the blood cells, neural cells, and osteocytes of the opponent(s). This ability generally lives up to its name for the simple fact that by having control over cells in a giving area a sword stalker can reopen wounds that have been healed, or even increase its size over time.

By using the blood cells in the controlled area(s), a sword stalker absorbs the blood from the opponent(s) wound(s) and into the sword stalker’s body or Alma Buskador. By using the blood cells of his/her opponent(s) the user (the sword stalker)’s chakra becomes red and causes the body of the sword stalker to continuously increase in strength, speed, and chakra. For this ability to reach its peak takes time and if canceled by the sword stalker before the technique is complete all control is lost. Another big weakness of this technique is that the sword stalker’s body gets heavier as the strength, speed, and chakra increases, so basically the more blood absorbed the heavier the sword stalker becomes, therefore making it hard for a sword stalker to balance on things such as trees when in this form. Although a sword stalker’s weight may increase it doesn’t effect the speed of the sword stalker (since speed and strength are also increased, therefore making it possibly for a sword stalker to become faster) and it never gets to the point that the sword stalker gets crushed. The effects of this ability speeds up 0.2 inches x the users rank , therefore at the rank of Genin (first rank) a sword stalkers cellular manipulation speed is only 0.2 inches x 1 , which comes out to only 0.2 inch of contamination per post.

A sword stalker by the rank of chuunin(Second rank) would be 0.4 inches of contamination per post. Sword stalkers at the rank of special jounin(third rank) would have an increase of 0.6 inches per post; jounin(Fourth rank) would have an increase of 0.8 inches per post, while Kage( Fifth rank) would be an increase of 1 inches per post. This technique is not lethal and will continue at this rate, for as long as no one tries to heal the wound, with a regular healing jutsu(Contamination/ Poison curing jutsus or cell killing techs can rid this move in that area). By doing so the rate of cellular manipulation will increases its affects by one more inch on top of the current damage for the post the user’s next post(example 2 inches is contaminated, but due to the healing of the user in that area 3 inches is contaminated). Reason why is because, healing is a process that speeds up cells to repair wounds, but doing so in this situation will only speed up the number of cells contaminated. The blood cells absorbed by this clan ability can only increase the user’s current speed, strength, and chakra by 9% per 0.2 inches also causing the wound(s) of the infected person every post like mentioned earlier.

This use of cellular spiritual manipulation has proven to be very helpful to sword stalkers mainly because most techniques preformed by the Blood Moon clan requires large amounts of chakra so this serves as a small compensation for that. As hinted earlier this kind of infection can be done on more than one person, but unlike using it on one person, using this technique in such a manner costs chakra. So if more than one person gets infected the user automatically loses 6% of his or her gained chakra every 2 posts. Unfortunately for sword stalkers, unless the infected wound(s) is/are located in fatal areas, no one can be killed by this technique or forced to lose a limb. Cellular/Spiritual manipulation also allows a sword stalker the use of the neural cells in a contaminated area of the opponent. This technique allows the sword stalker to make the neural cells send false messages to the opponent(s)’s brain to make the infected area go numb, therefore also disabling the opponent from ever feeling any pain in that area no matter how serious. By using Osteocytes the sword stalker can cause the bone matrix of the infected area to begin to deteriorate causing the bones of the contaminated area to weaken.The user also can not faint from this ability since this ability only causes the user to bleed slowlly in the contaminated area, therefore losing drams per second and even so it would not be enough to reach the point of fainting. All effects of Cellular/ Spiritual Contamination are temporary, for all contamination(s) can only lasts 8 posts; after eigth posts all contamination(s) will be auto canceled. All effects(gains) of this ability on the user wears off after the 9th post, then cellular contamination can be re-established after 3 posts in a different wound(can’t infect the same wounds after it had been canceled once).

2)Sword Stalking{ Chuunin level clan ability} Because of this clan’s well renounce –mature understanding of spirituality and the elements, this clan has been known to be able to talk to spiritual weapons. Their philosophy leans towards the fact that, where there is spiritual energy, there is a voice. This is why in order to be well viewed as a full fleshed sword stalker, obtaining an Alma Buskador is a must. With further advancement and practice, the ancient sword stalkers how to become one with their signature swords, and also speak to other weapons that they consider to be “alive” (weapons with spiritual energy, and /or abilities). This development not only gave sword stalkers the ability to speak to any spiritual weapon, but also to use the gift to salvage spiritual weapons. This is done by sensing the weapon’s durability, therefore preventing people from breaking valuable weapons. Because of this ability, if a sword stalker’s spiritual weapon(s) break, he/she can repair the spiritual weapon(s) or any weapon with her blood alone. This ability named after the tradition, Sword Stalking is necessary in order for a Sword Stalker to be able to use a technique known as, Dormant Swords Stalking.

3) Sinister Eyes{ Sp. Jounin level clan ability}: As mentioned earlier, the eye patterns for every user varies, and changes as they get stronger spiritually (chuunin and up). This ability is a sp.jounin level ability that allows the user to start and complete any jutsu without ever having to use his or her hands to do so. While this technique is in use the patterns of the user’s eyes begin to rotate around the center as if it was revealing a locker combination. By using this technique additional chakra is used on top of the amount used for the technique. Techniques that require hand signs can be done through the pattern shifting of the eyes, in exchange the chakra cost increases by 3%. Using this technique to perform a jutsu takes as many posts as the technique requires for completion meanwhile hands and feet can be used to serve other purposes. This technique can be used with the users eyes closed.

Clan History: This clan originated from the Dainichi no Mangetsu( Great Sun of Full Moon), an old Indian –Shinobi - tribe which worshiped the sun and the moon. The members of this clan were not exclusive in the beginning therefore allowing members of any color, or race to become a part for as long as they convert into their religion. The members of this clan had a firm belief in the sun and the moon. They believed that the sun and the moon where the true gods and creator of the earth. The members perceived the sun, Dainichi (Great Sun) as the god who lights the path for his disciples and keeps the gravity and balance of the earth. The moon, Mangetsu (Full Moon) was perceived as the goddess that hides mankind from evils that lurks within the darkness. Mangetsu was also perceived as the goddess that kept the raging oceans from flooding the earth. These shinobi worshiped the sun and the moon religiously and by doing so they related a lot of their techniques to the way of both the sun and the moon.

By relating their religion to spirituality and ninja arts, the members of this clan rapidly gained better understanding of the elements and the “spiritual world”. More or less this clan was filled with ordinary, but highly religious shinobi that excelled in ninjutsu and weapon crafting. That is until a man named, Shikino Hota became the prince of the clan. The prince at the time was the leader of the clan because they believed that the position of king and queen belonged to the sun and the moon. Shikino Hota, believed in expansion of the clan and religion. Shikino believed that in order for one to save the world from the darkness, one must see the light but in order to see the light, one must first understand the darkness. This philosophy of his quickly changed the way most members of the clan would perceive their gods. The members of this clan began to believe that the Mangetsu was also the goddess of sacrifice, who protected them from evil by becoming a light in the dark to distract evil from them who lurked in the darkness. This started a rush for power that lead to Shikino’s request to began researching on humans. Most members of the clan strongly opposed against Shikino’s request to research on Humans, and soon later it became a political and religious issue, that caused most members of the clan to stop worshiping the moon, who they now perceived mainly as the goddess of sacrifice and solely worship Dainichi during the mornings.

The prayers to Dainichi became mostly prayers of forgiveness towards the moon and all who worship her. This caused a religious separation between the many worshipers of Dainichi and the few worshipers of Mangetsu. With the religious separation came new leaders of the sun religion such as Tenmia Roku, who became known as Princess of Dainichi. This separation in power had upset Shikino greatly. One night, while Roku premiered her movement of researching on plants a large meteor was said to have fallen from the sky, releasing large amount of chakras, which burned the temple of the sun and killed a few members of the clan. Those who served under Shikino believed that, the moon had taken her vengeance upon those who served Dainichi and that the meteor landing on the sun temple was a declaration of war. So the night after a group known as Moon Stalkers slaughtered most of the members that served the sun and beheaded the princess as a sacrifice to the moon.

Shikino then reunited the sun and moon clan and renamed the clan, Blood Moon Dynasty, in honor of the unforgettable bloodshed that happened under the full moon that night. From then on leaders of this clan became known as The Blood Moon Prince. Because of Shikino’s impact on the clan, there were much experimentation on human and animals done. The clan even began to conduct experiments with the use of the mysterious meteor, that later caused the death of more shinobi, and brought forth the creation of the clan’s bloodline, known as Blood Enchanted Eyes. The nick name, Sword Stalkers was shortly adopted by the clan, due one of their abilities, that allowed them to speak to weapons. Those eyes gave them incredible powers, but unfortunately the remaining history of this clan is still a mystery, since not much have been documented on the leaders after Shikino and Tenmia, and not much was documented about the research done with weapons, it is only documented that members of this clan referred to themselves as sword stalkers, and were mostly found talking to weapons.

~Academy Student~
At the Nadaregakure Academy , Minato’s strength grew at a incredible speed and he quickly became ready to test for a Genin at only the age of 8, but his teacher held him back and said no. The teacher knew that Minato needed time to grow physically before he could truly become a Genin. After 2 more years of intense training Minato was still top of his class but also became the most popular kid in the academy as simply he was very chill. Finally after another 2 years Minato was now highly bored with the academy so luckily they allowed him to become a genin although instead of taking a test they just knew he passed, something never done before.

~Genin~
After finally getting out of the Ninja Academy he was very happy to learn that he would be getting one of the best Sensei’s available only what he didn’t like was the fact he was going to be put together with someone else. The Kage at the time was smart enough to know that putting a third member on would slow him down when it came to learning, but the Kage wanted him to get used to working with people better. Now he waits for when he meets his Sensei and “teammate”.

Minato went into the forest to start training, he couldn't wait to go try out his new technique. He found a good spot to train at, and setted up the targets. He then hear someone coming and hid up in the trees. The person that was coming from th trees was.........a cat!?? Minato leaped off the trees and said, "You look like a lost cat to me. " He isn't a lost cat, he's my cat, said the man. I'm sorry if I'm bothering your training kid, Junpei just can't obey, he always runs around." "Who's Junpei? Minato asked the man. This dog is named Junpei, thats what my brother named him," The man responded. "What's your name?" the man asked Minato. My name is Minato," Minato said, smiling. "Well, bye for now. See you next time , if we have the chance , Minato." The man said, and walked off.

A few days later , Minato went to a Ramen Shop. "Welcome!! What do you want to order for today? It's been a long time since I met you. How are you?" said the shopkeeper. "Hei! It has been a long time.. I would like the special please" said Minato . while smiling. After a while someone came into the shop. "Welcome!! What do you want to order for today?" said the shopkeeper. "The special , please." said the man. Minato was shocked. " It must be the man who I met with the cat the other day." he thought. When he turn back , it was the man he met with the cat. "Oh , hi Minato . Told you we will meet again." said the man. "Well , yea I guess." said Minato. "Want some more? It's my treat for found my cat." said the man. " Thanks." said Minato while smiling.
