Creations of Darkness

Name: Hands of Darkness
Rank: D-S
Type: ninjutsu
Used For: Offensive/Defensive
Element: Darkness
Range: based on nin skill: Basic – 10m, Adept – 20m, Master – 30m
Duration: Upkeep
Hand Seals/Charge up: 4 hand seals
Description:
The user will form floating arms of darkness (two only) that will be controlled by the user. These arms seem to move freely, and can also form hand seals for the user in case their hands are unable to move or are occupied. The hands are are demonic in shape and form the hand and the elbow. The arms can also form a quick makeshift shield. Each arm is one meter wide and three meters long (from middle finger to where the elbow would be). At D-rank, your darkness moves at Basic Tai speeds. At C-B rank, your darkness moves at Adept speeds. At A-S rank, your darkness moves at Master speeds.
Weakness: All Darkness techniques are susceptible to a single weakness, that being intense light. Flash Bombs in particular release enough light at once to disable C rank techniques for a single post. For other custom elemental techniques that create intense light Darkness techniques will have a 1 rank disadvantage.

Name: Seal of Darkness
Rank: D
Type: Fuinjutsu
Used For: Supplementary
Element: Darkness
Range: Touch/Darkness Techs
Duration: 1 post seal/unseal
Hand Seals/Charge up: 1
Description: This is a special seal that works like any sealing technique, but only with the darkness element. This technique allows the user to seal and unseal things in their darkness techniques. This technique itself isnt a sealing jutsu, but instead is used as a medium, and the user must pay 10% of their chakra instead of the D rank cost in the beginning of a topic in order for them to be able to seal or unseal anything from their darkness techniques.
Weakness: if the user has sealed items or weapons and doesnt pay the 10% chakra cost then those objects will be unavailable for the entire topic. This technique MUST be activated in the user's first post of the topic.

Name: Tentacle Trap
Rank: B
Type: Fuinjutsu
Used For: Supplementary
Element: Darkness
Range: 20m
Duration: 1 post (trap activation)
Hand Seals/Charge up: 1 post (drawing/placing trap)
Description: The user will place a fuin seal in an area, creating a trap. When someone of a different chakra signature than the user comes within the traps range it will activate, sending out three tentacles made of darkness, which will pull the opponent into the seal and trap them within it. The tentacles will move at Tai adept speeds.
Weakness: The tentacles can be cut with A rank or higher techniques. If the seal is destroyed the trap will be diffused. If a bright light is used the range will decrease by half. Need generic sealing to unseal.

Name: Living Darkness
Rank: B
Type: ninjutsu
Used For: Offensive/Defensive
Element: Darkness
Range: 15m
Duration: Upkeep
Hand Seals/Charge up: 6
Description: The user sends their inner darkness into their shadow, manifesting it into a humanoid form. The figure will stand eight feet tall, of highly muscular build. The speed and strength will be equal to the tai skill compared to that of the users nin skill. Being that the figure is the manifestation of the inner darkness it moves on its own, always connected to the shadow of the user and not having any legs.
Weakness: A bright light can not only diminish the figure but if it was placed between the user and the figure it will cancel it out immediately, even the light created by a flash bang.

Name: Dark Creatures
Rank: C, B, S
Type: ninjutsu
Used For: Offensive
Element: Darkness
Range: 50m
Duration: upkeep
Hand Seals/Charge up: 4
Description:
The user will create 1(C), 3(B), or 5(S) creatures of darkness (looking like image) that stand four feet tall. Their speed and strength will be equal to the tai skill compared to that of the users nin skill, but can only attack physically. These creatures are not clones, and the user can communicate with them telepathically. It takes one attack of equal rank to detroys these creatures, for each rank below it would take an extra attack. (i.e. B rank = 1 B, 2 C, 3 D, etc)
Weakness: Not being clones the user has to pay upkeep for this jutsu, as well as the fact that if these creatures are hit with a bright light of lesser rank they will disperse.

for most of the jutsu you say equal to that of the nin skill but do not describe how this level of nin skill determines a creations abilities. Specifically for the last jutsu I have no idea how a creature made with the adept or masters levels would differ other than that they differ.

edited, and Kamina the last one, read it better sir. Each rank has a set number of creatures created.

now thats its been edited you need to edit your numbers too. This "creatures" will follow clone rules so you can only make up to 3 at a time

i dont see why. They are not clones, they can not use jutsu, they can not travel topics, and its a multi ranked jutsu. If i made them have clone rules i would make them clones. THAT jutsu is for later. These are smaller than normal, and i would still have to pay upkeep on them depending on the rank used. Why do you say clone.

They are still following the bunshin type of being creations that can move and act on the users will such as a clone. It isn't like a shadow clone in the way that it can use jutsu yes but you are also getting around that by giving them set speeds and strengths where as clones would be one rank lower than the users when using multiple so your coming out ahead there.

i dont see how as they cant leave the topic, and so youre saying water shark bomb jutsu and other stuff that move on users will should get stuff like that too? Like earth golem? Is there anyway to convince you to take back that ruling? ill change the shape to animals if need be.

Those jutsu all have one particular purpose yours are created in numbers for whatever manipulation you please. I guess im fine with them following clone rules as theyre isn't much that they do else wise but you need to nerf your numbers.

nerfed, dropped 10 to 5

how tough are these creatures. what does it take to destroy them?
