| Tamashiha Clan Associated Area: Land of Water Members: Requirements: Born or adopted into the Tamashiha clan as a child. Special Characteristics: The Tamashiha clan has a unique style of bladed combat. A shinobi of this clan practicing the clan traditional style looks like an elaborate dance with an invisible partner. In combat, the partner manifests in the soul blades, held in hand by the youngest of the clan, flying in increasingly elaborate formations and patterns as the Tamashiha increases in skill and power. The blades of the dance are not mere swords, but the user’s will and chakra made solid; given instruction by each movement. "There is beauty and tradition in the dance. Grace in every step. Power in every turn.
Our dance is an honor to perform. And the last thing our enemies will ever see." - Hiden: Soul Blade Dance:
Soul Blade Dance I
The Tamashiha has learned the basics of the blade dance. In addition to the physical practice of the dance, this has also pushed the shinobi’s chakra so strongly towards yang they are unable to utilize genjutsu. Whether they choose to focus solely on this ancient art, or branch out into additional taijutsu or bukijutsu is up to them.
Requires the Yang special characteristic.
Grants the following clan jutsu: Manifest Melee Soul Blade.
Grants the following academy jutsu: Genjutsu Kai, Body Flicker Technique
Users are unable to learn or utilize Genjutsu.
Functions as prerequisite to Taijutsu II and Bukijutsu II
Soul Blade Dance II
The Tamashiha continues the tradition of the dance, and individual shinobi can add to the art, and begin developing their own basic movements. The dance begins to incorporate short range attacks in addition to just melee strikes.
Grants the following clan jutsu: Manifest Close Range Soul Blade
Removes the sustained resource for the clan jutsu: Manifest Melee Soul Blade
Soul Blade Dance III
The dance is such second nature to the Tamashiha, they can be identified as such just by the grace with which they walk. The movements advance in such a way that the soul blades can have a purpose outside of combat, as the very way a Tamashia moves intrinsically manipulates them.
Grants the following clan jutsu: Manifest Medium Range Soul Blade, Manifest Utility Soul Blade
Removes the sustained resource for the clan jutsu: Manifest Close Range Soul Blade
Soul Blade Dance IV
The shinobi is an exemplar of the Tamashiha tradition, and a fearsome force on the battlefield. Sending blades to strike foes at great distances. At this point the dancer can channel elemental chakra through their soul blades, if they so desire.

Loyal Blade I-V
The Tamashiha moves with such grace at all times that they maintain soul blades practically unconsciously. The Tamashiha may start any thread with up to 15 resource worth of soul blades manifested per point of this SC. Only blades types with no sustained cost can be created in this way. The user can not return the blades into themselves if it will take them beyond their maximum normal resources.
Requires Soul Blade Dance III
Users are unable to take the Reserves SC.
Clan Jutsu: At a very young age, Tamashiha train their minds and bodies for the soul blade dance. This training irrevocably shifts the balance of their chakra heavily towards yang, but allows them to manifest their chakra into various blades. The blades look different for each Tamashiha, though all combat blades are approximately the length of a one handed sword. While basic strikes (linear, two dimensional attacks like slashes or thrusts) can be performed with the soul blades with simple motions, more complicated uses or attacks require more specialized dances. The Tamashiha clan refers to the art of controlling the soul blades in the elaborate and beautiful ways of the dance as “Movements” rather than jutsu. - Hiden: Soul Blade Jutsu:
General Notes:- While the ability to create these blades are granted naturally by the Tamashiha SCs, additional Movements (read: jutsu) must be applied for separately.
- Movements must specify which soul blade type(s) (melee, close, medium, long, or utility) they use. Longer range blades may not substitute for closer range blades.
- Movements must specify how many of each type are used in that movement; if blades are sacrificed in the movement, the cost of creating the blade is added to the resource cost for calculating power of the movement.
- Soul blades move with the same speed and strength as the Tamashiha that created them.
- When the user loses consciousness, all manifested soul blades dissipate without returning any resource.
- The soul blades can be plunged back into the user to return half (rounded down) of the initial resource cost of manifesting it.
- The soul blades are incapable of injuring the creator in any way.
