Yamazaru Clan [Complete]

Clan Name: Yamazaru Clan

Kekkei Genkai:

Animal Sealing:
Long ago, the Yamazaru clan members sealed traits and abilities of specific animals which they studied on their travels with a special type of seal. They place these fuuinjutsu seals on every clansmans body in different areas to usual replecate the ability which it possess. These seals, ultimately, when released by the user combine both the clansmens chakra with the animals ability which is sealed within the seal, in order to link the seperate animal trait/ability to the user. The ability is able to temporarily allow the user to gain the trait/ability that is sealed within the secret fuuinjutsu of the clan.

Shukyou Seal:
This is the most famous seal within the Yamazaru Clan and is the most complecated and powerful that they have created. Due to a new law within the clan all new born babies must have this seal placed on them before the first week of life. The seal is placed on the newborns stomach and it is large, taking up the whole stomach. The Shukyou Seal combines both the clansmens mind adn chakra with the primate species as the Yamazaru clan has a bond with the primates. This links their neurons together allowing them to have a complete bond. The seal is ultimately an advanced form of the Animal Sealing method as the primate elders combined with the clansmen allowing them to used secret fuuinjutsu techniques that allows the seal to have a vast amount of power in it, a lot more than i normal seal. The Shukyou Seal allows the clansmen to transform into ape hybrid giving them all the characteristics, behavior and abilties that a primate would have. Seeing as this seal is very complecated it is released in three forms:

1st Seal Release: This stage of the seal is active since being applied and allows the clansmen to gain the basic traits of a primate. The clansmen gains enhanced reflexes like a monkey able to move like a monkey with ease, they also gain an enhanced sense of smell and hearing stronger than any ninja hound.

2nd Seal Release: When this stage of the seal is released the outside decorated layer of the seal lights up a blue colour, the same as chakra activation. The clansmen's primal traits strengthen and they soon look more like a primate. Their hair will grow long down to their back, thier pupils will become smaller, they grow long sharp fangs, nails grow longer to a claw-like length, they grow long sideburns and their hair thickens and grows in length on their forearm all they way down to the back of their hand and on the tops of their feet. The most startling monkey trait they gain is that of a tail, a long tail grows from their tailbone. In this partial primate transformation they gain an even sharper sense of smell and hearing. They gain greater speed and strength and a superior climbing ability. In this state their balance and agility is greater then that of a monkey, combined with all their other trait increases they become very difficult to deal with.

3rd Seal Release: This is the final stage of the Shukyou Seal and when released both the black circle and the decorated edges of the seal light up the same blue colour. The clansmen now becomes a complete ape-human hybrid gaining more intense primate traits then in the 2nd seal. This is considered the most powerful stage of the seal seeing as it gives the user access to the greatest level of primal instinct and ape ability. In this stage the clansmen strength and speed is doubled along with their agility and balance. Their physical capabilities increase dramatically able to punch craters into the earth (2-3m radius) and move at increased speeds. Though the greatest asset in this stage is the unlocking of specific parts of the users mind. Primates are considered the most intelligent of all animals and when in this stage the clansmen gains the intelligence of that of a primate as well as a human. They gain wider perception of their surroundings able to react to situations quicker. It would appear to others that the clansmen moves at amazing speeds but they are only reacting to the oppositions movements faster. The genral knowledge and mental capacity of the user increases. But using this stage of the seal takes its toll and the clansmen can only be relieved of this stage if there chakra levels are completely exhausted. This seal can only be accessed by a clansmen of A rank or higher.

Spoiler:

Primate Summoning Contract:
Due to the great bond that the primates and the Yamazaru clansmen have summoning is a lot more easy and is used more frequently. Clansmen sign the contract with the primates when they are young and it is sealed within the Shokyou Seal on their stomach. This means the clansmen doesn't have to summon the primates through a scroll or tattoo all they need to do is form the monkey handseal and the summon seal will form anywhere the summoner wishes able to summon a primate anywhere at anytime with ease. Experienced clan members don't have to form any seals at all. Clan members are able to summon anby primate that they wish as the contract covers all species of primates that exist in the world. This ranges from monkeys, apes, gorilla's, Chimpanzee's, Orangatang, lemur's etc etc.

History:

The Yamazaru Clan is a long existing clan that has been around for many decades. Though not large in size or political standing the clan is well known thoughout the world for their expertise and knowledge in fuuinjutsu, animals and their love of nature. The clan first started nearly a century ago by group of young males and females who had a passion and love for animals. They travelled around the world studying animals all shapes and sizes, working out where they lived and their habitats, and how they co-exist with humans in the world. The clan members were not considered ninja but more researchers or scientists. They had a extensive knowledge of fuuinjutsu arts and this was another passion of theirs.

As time passed the members of this clan grew as they travelled through many foreign countries in search for new and exciting species of animals. The Yamazaru Clan for a long time never really settled down finding their roots, they were on the move constantly as they would find a area where animals existed and they would study them temporarily camping there for days or maybe weeks. But then once they gathered all the information they needed they soon departed again in search for a new adventure. The ability that the clan is most famous for would be their special Animal Sealing techniques which are unique to Yamazaru Clan members. With all the knowledge of animals studying their characteristics and abilities mixed with their vast knowledge of fuuinjutsu they started to create unique seals which were able to temporarily give a human the traits of specific animals.

These seals were enscribed onto members bodies and with a release of the seal the clan member would be able to use the abilities which were bestowed within the unique seal. This ability was one that the world had never seen before and had revolutionised the use of fuuinjutsu. Yamazura Clan members decided to keep it quiet and to not change anything about their behavior so they continued to travel around the world. But one day after a long and arduous trek up a remote mountain boarding the Fire Country they stumbled on a group of animals that they would eventually fall in love with and change their lives forever.

This mountain was a primate stronghold and it held all species of primates ranging from Gorilla to chimpanzee. This clan was amazed with the way these animals lived, their intelligence, strength, agility and speed mesmerized the Yamazaru clan members. They soon found out that the mountain was called Mt. Shukyou and it was were the primates had called home for centuries. They stayed for weeks even months just looking from afar experiencing something they had never seen before. Eventually they decided to contact the mighty beasts but they already knew of their presence, the mountain was sacred and they knew it like the back of their hand. The primates took the members in knowing of their love of all live and anything natural and after a while a bond formed between both man and beast.

The clan decided to set-up residence on this mountain and have lived on Mt. Shukyou for many decades. They live hand in hand with the primates and they have become one with the family. The clan is still small in size and they are allowed to venture off the mountain if they wish. But they are taught the sacred secrets and laws of the primate colony and would never break the trust that is bestowed to them and give away the secret location of the mountain. With the clans great fuuinjutsu abilties and eternal connection with the primates they created a seal which is to be sealed onto any newborn child's stomach when they are born into the clan. This seal is so secret that onyl clan members know how to create it. It gives the clan member everlasting bond with the primates allowing them to summon the primates at anytime without the need of long handseals or other summoning seals. But it also allows the member the ability of primates allowing them to morph themselves into a primate receiving access to all abilities and characteristics that they possess while still being a human.

Great looking application, nice detailed history, though I'd like you to state what primates can actually be summoned and please add the secret clan jutsu they contribute to the applications approval, thanks.
