Kekkei Genkai: Wood Release
JutsuType: Ninjutsu
Nature: Wood
Rank: D
Class: Supplementary
Name: Wood Release: Transformation (Mokuton: Henge)
Description: This jutsu is just like any other Transformation Technique. Yamato performs the necessary hand seals, then wood emerges and covers his entire body and a puff of smoke or chakra covers up the transformation. Once the jutsu is done, the transformation is complete. It acts more like a costume than a transformation, as Yamato is able to leave it behind if necessary.
Perquisite(s): --
Limitations: The transformation lasts for 10 posts per thread, and requires a 2 post cooldown to change into a different transformation.
User(s): The average Namaki Clansman is capable of using this technique.
Type: Ninjutsu
Nature: Wood
Rank: C
Class: Defensive, Supplementary, Collaborative
Name: Wood Release: Wood Locking Wall
Description: An extremely versatile move, this technique uses chakra to activate the roots in the ground and, using the user of the technqiue as a reference point, makes wooden pillars appear from left and right. The wooden pillars join together in a dome-shape with the user at the center. This process can be used to catch the enemy in a double sided attack. Also, in case one confronts the enemy at a short distance, the enemy can be locked up inside the dome, setting the situation for a one-on-one fight. This dome can also be collapsed or burnt with the enemy inside to inflict damage. Furthermore, it functions as a easy shelter against the enemy's long-distance attacks, like shuriken and kunai.
Perquisite(s): --
Limitations: If enough damage is taken this technique will wear down, and shatter. It gives limited protection against D-B rank technique, and rarely against A-rank techniques, though, it all depends on the technique used against it.
User(s): The average Namaki Clansman knows how to use this technique, and they use it more often then not.
Type: Ninjutsu
Nature: Wood
Rank: B
Class: Offensive, Defensive, Supplementary
Name: Wood Clone Technique (Moku Bunshin no Jutsu )
Description: A clone that is created by altering the user's own cells with chakra. It has more endurance than the normal Shadow Clones and doesn't disappear when hit by the enemies' attacks. Moreover, since it has the ability to merge with plants and trees, it is also great for reconnaissance missions. They have the ability to travel far distances from the user and are able to communicate with the original. The clones can be as simple in function as a wooden dummy for use in the Body Replacement Technique.
The basic concept of the Shadow Clone Technique also applies to the Wood Clone Technique. However, the chakra-composed Shadow Clone and the cell-based Wood Clone are completely distinct techniques. By directly touching the Wood Clone with his hand, the user can absorb the information it gathered and changes the shape of the clone. The Wood Clone is made up of the user's own cells, transformed into vegetation. Because of this, when it is changed into a seed and taken into the body, it can be used as a "transmission device". This and all other uses make this technique extremely convenient.
Perquisite(s): --
Limitations: The user can only summon 1-5 clones, and each clone lasts 8 posts. A master of the Wood Clone Technique can summon up to 6-10 clones. If 6-10 clones are summoned each lasts only 4 posts upon being created.
User(s): This is a technique noted as a rather difficult one to learn, but, the average Namaki Clansman can summon up to two wood clones.
Type: Ninjutsu
Nature: Wood
Rank: B
Class: Defensive, Supplementary
Name: Wood Release: Four Pillars Prison Technique
Description: The user changes chakra into timber under the ground and makes it grow rapidly, while forming it into a wooden prison. The size of the prison is based on the user's imagination. From an insect cage to a great prison, one can make it into whatever they want by regulating the amount of chakra used. The timber itself is treated with a chakra coating, making its destruction extremely difficult. During war, it has the great ability to detain prisoners, but it can also be used as a disciplinary measure for quarreling subordinates.
Perquisite(s): The targets must be gathered together within a centered area of control that the Jutsu will be preformed, in order to catch them.
Limitations: This Prison lasts for 5 posts, and then has a 2 post cooldown.
User(s): Only the more experienced, and determined Clansman of the Namaki Clan have shown capable of using this technique correctly, and with the necessary chakra control required.
Type: Ninjutsu
Nature: Wood
Rank: B
Class: Defensive, Supplementary
Name: Wood Release: Four Pillars House Technique (Mokuton: Shichūka no Jutsu)
Description: By sending chakra into the ground, the roots of the plants are converted into raw materials. This technique allows for a building to be constructed, by forcing accelerated growth. Just like with the Four Pillar Prison Technique, the size and shape of the building are taken from the user's imagination or memories. By placing fuda around the house, the user creates a barrier, making it impossible for the enemy to detect it and allowing the user to "camp" in peace.
Perquisite(s): --
Limitations: --
User(s): Used by Namaki Clansman who are skilled in chakra control.
Type: Ninjutsu

Name: Wood Release: Dense Woodland Wall (Mokuton: Jukai Heki )
Description: The user creates countless wooden branches that grow at high speed from the ground. The wood interlaces to form a wide, net-like wall with an impressive defensive power.
Perquisite(s): --
Limitations: This technique can be used once, and has a three post cooldown. It requires a lot of chakra to make a successful Dense Woodland Wall.

Name: Wood Release: Serial Pillar Houses Technique (Mokuton: Renchūka no Jutsu)
Description: This technique is a larger scaled version of the Wood Release: Four Pillars House Technique. Instead of creating a single house, Yamato creates multiple houses at once. It appears to exhaust him rather quickly, though. Yamato used this technique to help rebuild Konohagakure after its destruction by Pain's Shinra Tensei.
Perquisite(s): The user must have a lot of chakra built up prior to using this technique.
Limitations: The constructs are permanent, but, they totally exhaust the user post-usage.
User(s): Only Masters of the Namaki Clan have ever been capable of using this technique. It is a sign of great power, and a lot of potential. The reason being because this technique is similar to the First Hokage's technique when he raised the entire Ninja Villages foundation from the ground, though, this technique is at a much smaller scale.
Type: Ninjutsu
Nature: Wood
Rank: A
Class: Offensive, Supplementary
Name: Wood Release: Great Forest Technique (Mokuton: Daijurin no Jutsu )
Description: A technique that changes one's own arm into big trees. Using chakra, the tissues are transformed into trees at the cellular level. Then, by activating the trees, stimulating them to grow rapidly, they lengthen at high speed and fork into many branches. It is possible to capture the enemy with these branches and at the same time, if one changes the ends into sharp stakes, turn them into countless, sharp, spear-like piercing weapons.
Perquisite(s): --
Limitations: This technique can be used after a three post cooldown, and the control over the technique lasts for two posts.
User(s): Only those highly skilled members of the Namaki Clan have been shown capable of using this technique.

Distinct Features Most of the Clansmen have black, wide, but sharp eyes. Often, the offspring are born with brown hair. The males' hair doesn't grow out very long. Most of the Clansmen have a paler skin tone. Most Clansmen believe that using fear to instill order into a group-function isn't 'low' but actually very helpful and will often go to lengths to calm their group down.
Traditions: Being new to the Ninja World this Clan doesn't have very many traditions of its own - most of its traditions are shared with Konohagakure.
History: This Clan started with the renown Shinobi, Yamato - or so he was known. In his later years, he started a family, and settled down. Their kids had kids, and their family isn't nearly as large as other families. There are only two families, who are the children of Yamato's first children. The Clan is well-known for its Wood Release, and is often helpful in construction, and of course, on missions whilst on duty. Most of the Clansmen are sharp, and make decent leaders. The Namaki Clan believe strongly in Konoha's Will of Fire.
