Book of Five Rings Techniques (Part 1) [Complete]

Name: Deceptive Eye
Rank: D
Type: Doujutsu (Eye Technique)
Element: N/A
Description: A simple technique that allows the user to user their full range of vision without visible eye movement or turning of the head. Useful for the tactically inclined as a method of surprise. A trained user can see nearly 90 degrees in either direction without showing in eye movement. By eliminating cues from the eyes opponents have a much harder time predicting attacks. This technique is a crucial part of strategy as laid out in the book of five rings.

Name: Two Swords, One Style
Rank: D
Type: Weapons
Element: N/A
Description: A deceptively hard technique to master due to it's philosophical base. The basis of this technique is learning to wield the katana and wakizashi in either hand. This is done by training with a katana in each hand. The ultimate mastery of this technique is learning how to use available weapons in the best possible way to cut down an opponent. That means the user must be flexible to adapt to the situation, using either one handed grip, a two handed grip, or a combination of different weapons. This is one of the building blocks of sword-fencing strategy laid out in the book of five rings.

Name: Throat Stab
Rank: C
Type: Weapons
Element: N/A
Description: Using a bladed weapon, most always a katana, the user learns to dodge out of the way of an incoming attack, turning to the side to reduce their profile as they make a controlled thrust for the neck of the opponent in one fluid motion. This technique requires intense control of the blade and copious amounts of practice to master. Once mastered this is one of the best ways of forestalling an opponent and is a reliable killer thanks to the lack of armor worn on the neck by most combatants. The is one of the many techniques for forestalling found within the book of five rings.

Name: Battle Cry
Rank: D
Type: Weapons/Taijutsu
Element: N/A
Description: This technique is used to mislead, scare, or otherwise mess up an opponent. It also has the added effect of adding to the strength of blows. The user lets out a battle cry before a blow, after a blow, or when claiming victory. A battle cry never coincides with the actual attack. The reason that a battle cry is always before or after is that it is meant as a way to throw off an opponents timing to scare them into an action that will lead to an opening or cause hesitation. Hearing this shout from a distance is frightening and can send chills down the spine. Seeing comrades fall, or knowing that they are losing and hearing the screams of your opponent doing it can unnerve even the best warriors. Psychologically this can be crippling to a warrior. The importance of this technique is stressed in the book of five rings.

Name: Buddha's Calm
Rank: C
Type: Taijutsu/Weaponry
Element: N/A
Description: In the world of the tactician it is important to never lose your cool. This is a meditative technique designed to ensure a fighter never loses his tactical edge for lack of emotional control. Many misunderstand this technique as a way to keep emotions from occurring. Rather, this technique lets you control when to let your emotions power you without becoming blinded by them. A strategic tool for any warrior, this lets them keep calm and able to control the battle and release their rage when then need a powerful cut or blow to bring down an opponent. This is one of the most important parts of strategy as laid out in the book of five rings.

Deceptive eye is not a supernatural ability. It is a technique I made out something I took from a real book. All it is, is using peripherals, which extend to nearly 90 degrees to each side anyways, without letting your eye turn. I could narrow how far it lets you see from your peripherals. Small movements will still occur, but nothing blatant that would give away intentions.

The battle cry is also not supernatural. It doesn't make you louder then just shouting either. I am making it into a technique because people really don't understand how scary it is and how much it can throw a person off. Medically, it is known that a loud sound can cause stress on a person. It won't make a hardened warrior wet his pants, but you would be surprised what happens when blood starts flying and you begin to hear shouting and screaming.

Also note the final technique I put down would be a counter to the battle cry. It also is nothing supernatural, just a training he has to overcome such things. I've learned that if you don't apply for it, you can't have it. If it isn't listed in your profile you can't do it, hence these techniques.

And finally I will address the clan thing. My guy is born from a samurai clan with no KKG. The book of five rings is a book written by a samurai on sword fencing and tactics. So while it's not a bloodline thing, it is part of being a samurai, which he is.

Alright then. Get rid of every technique then if they are no point of being jutsus. Just remove them completely. No need for them whatsoever. It's either that way... or they must be jutsus which is why you posted them here which is why they should be altered to my specifications. ;D
