Same as it was a year ago, but I'm going to change it up a bit.
Name: Surigaku
Village of Origin: Sunagakure no Sato
Description:
The Surigaku clan owns much of the East border of Sunagakure. In addition to being the direction in which the sun rises, this is also the direction from which Sunagakure is most often attacked. The giant, terraced wall on that border was built by them during the reign of the second Kazekage and is still under their ownership. Beyond the wall lies the lands of the Surigaku clan.
It is these lands that keeps the Surigaku clan together. The firstborn male of the head of the clan inherits complete legal control over the land when the previous head dies. Though they are technically permitted to do anything, a group of three elders (known as the "Council of Elders") from the clan advises him in his decisions. The power of these adviser has grown greatly, to the point where now the clan head never really excersizes any power and is merely a symbol.
One of the elders is in charge of sentry duties of Sunagakure (a duty which was given to them by the first Kazekage), one is in charge of land and buildings, and the last is in charge of educating the children in the Surigaku clan.
The educating branch holds classes every day for the first half of the day for those between the ages of 3 and 5. An advanced class is then taught in the evenings for children from the ages of 5 to 11 for those Surigakus who desire to be a ninja (the enrollment in this program is concurrent with the enrollment in Sunagakure's Academy). Although this education is "optional", only a few in the clan have ever willingly passed it up.
The classes cover core values, such as loyalty and honor, in addition to traditional scholastic subjects in the morning class. If a Surigaku performs unsatisfactory in the core values, they are not allowed to become ninjas.
The evening classes teach the students how to better use their eyes and some basic jutsu of the clan.
Many ninjas from the Surigaku clan are given special permission to be discharged from the normal military into the sentry service. Head of the sentry branch is the highest place of honor in the clan.
Bloodline Abilities:
The Surigakus possess incredible eyesight, both in accuracy and in distance. The pupils can expand to cover the whole Iris, which is also larger than normal. This change occurs naturally in dark settings, but through intense training a Surigaku can learn to force the eye open. However, forcing it very far open in bright light will damage the eye. The eyesight of those in the Surigaku clan has been know to gradually decline as they raise through the ranks in Sunagakure. Those who use force their eyes open in every fight have normal eyesight around the time they pass the chuunin exam and require glasses by the time they pass the jounin exam. For this reason, the clan has been trying to deprecate the use of jutsu that require the eyes to be forcefully opened.
When forcefully opened or when there is little ambient light, a Surigaku can not only see far and very accurately, but they are able to perceive waves beyond the visible spectrum. The further they open them, the more they can see and the more risk there is to the eyes. Several Surigakus have opened their eyes to be able to see the complete known spectrum and have become severely impaired because of that.
Clan Jutsus:
Name: Shuuha Hensen ("Wave Alteration")
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: C-rank
Desc: Changes the direction or frequency of electromagnetic radiation, but not the intensity. Can be used en masse, but requires more concentration, causing mental strain. Not very chakra intensive, since he is just modifying that which already is and is not creating anything.
Name: Shuuha Hensen: Re-za ("Wave Alteration: Laser")
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Desc: Uses Shuuha Hensen en masse to make a stream of electromagnetic radiation pulsate parrallel to eachother, creating a laser. Can use waves from either the visible or invisible spectrum.
Name: Shuuha Hensen: Rei ("Wave Alteration: Ray")
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Desc: Uses Shuuha Hensen en masse, greatly increasing the frequency of the radiation to either the X-ray or, if much chakra is used, the gamma-ray level. Chakra intensive, and can cause chronic tissue damage.
Name: Hi Seisei ("Light Creation")
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: C-rank
Desc: Aksoro creates electromagnetic radiation, inside or outside the visible spectrum. Can be chakra intensive if used en masse.
Name: Hi munashii ("Light Void")
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Desc: Aksoro sucks light from an area, making a black-hole appearance (causing very near complete darkness at night), and either turns it into chakra or uses Shuuha Hensen on it to transform it into an attack. In the case of the former, it is only slightly beneficial when not under direct sunlight since the jutsu itself uses amounts of chakra as well.
Name: Genkaku Kabi ("Illusion Wall")
Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: B-rank
Desc: Aksoro modifies the visible electromagnetic spectrum in a plane, gaining complete control over what someone will see if looking in the direction of that plane. The plane in not solid, of course, and can only be seen if one is on the recieving side of it, in which case it does not appear to be abnormal. Requires steady concentration to keep up and extreme concentration to animate an object behind the wall. Since this is ninjutsu and not genjutsu, kai is ineffective.
Summon:
(none)
History:
The Surigaku clan was one of the founding clans of Sunagakure no Sato. It's founder, Kouken, took it upon himself to be responsible for the sentry duties of the town in order to free up ninjas for other duties. It is unknown whether the eyes of the Surigakus adapted to their new position or whether they induced the improvement themselves. In legend, Kouken attained the improved eyes through his habit of constantly gazing into the moon, but this is impossible since records of their improved eyesight are not seen until two generations later. At the time of the discovery of their new talent, the Council of Elders was established to protect the ability and to continue the duties that had been appointed to them.
The branch of education has since been the most active. It is this branch that discovered how to train Surigakus to open their pupils, a practice that they continue teaching to this day. Jutsus that were developed in the clan were submitted to this branch. All were recorded, and the best were taught to the upcoming generation.
