Name: Inuzuka Clan

Affiliation: Konohagakure

Description: The Inuzuka clan (犬塚一族, Inuzuka Ichizoku) or Inuzuka family (犬塚家, Inuzuka-ke) is a family of shinobi in Konohagakure known for their use of ninken as fighting companions and are easily identified by the distinctive red fang markings on their cheeks.

Kekkei Genkai

Name: Four Legs Technique
Field: Ninjutsu, Fighting Style.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Self.
Description: This technique grants animal-like accelerated fighting instinct and reflexes to the user. By enveloping their entire body in chakra and moving on all fours, they can obtain high speed movement and reflexes like that of a wild animal. Taught only to the members of the Inuzuka clan, this technique forms the basis of a Inuzuka clan member's taijutsu fighting style, and will add even more to their feral-like appearances; their canine teeth, their finger and toenails grow to claw-like length, their eyes also become more wild with their pupils becoming slits. When under the effects of this technique, an Inuzuka will display great feats of physical strength, speed, agility and endurance. The form is best suited for using and supporting the ferocious "hit-and-run" tactics that the clan is well known for, leaving the enemy barely any time to launch a counter attack.
Perquisites: While the Four Legs technique is active, the Inuzuka is three times as susceptible to distortions in sound and smell than he/she normally would be. It lasts no more than ten posts with a ten post cooldown.
Chakra Cost: 5 Chakra per post while Four Legs Technique is active.

Duration: None.

Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 15 (C-rank), 20 (B-rank), 25 (A-rank).
Description: The user spins at a ferocious speed and delivers many powerful beast-like attacks when contact is made with the target. The damage it can inflict on a human target can be extremely damaging, as it can readily tear through thick tree branches, stone and chakra reinforced earth wall; all of which with a radius thicker than the user itself. This attack is done alone but it can be done with a partner, making it more effective.

Technique: Beast Human Clone
Field: Ninjutsu, Clone Techniques.
Type: None.
Rank: D-rank.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Self.
Hand Seals: Tiger.
Duration: Four posts.
Cooldown: Two posts.
Drawbacks: Like any transformation, the technique can be broken by identifying and attacking the animal, thus dispelling the transformation.
Chakra Cost: 10.
Description: A modified version/mix of the Transformation Technique and clone technique, which is unique to the Inuzuka clan, allows a canine-user to transform their animal companion into a perfect copy of themselves. When combined with the Four Legs Technique, the user and the animal become virtually impossible to tell apart, since both act equally animalistic. This technique is often followed by the Fang Passing Fang.

Technique: Dynamic Marking
Field: Taijutsu.
Type: None.
Rank: D-rank.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: 4m.
Hand Seals: None.
Duration: Four posts.
Cooldown: Two posts.
Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 10.
Description: This technique involves the Inuzuka's ninken urinating on a target, marking it with a strong odor that allows both it and the Inuzuka to easily track the target(s) by scent. This is a prerequisite for using the Fang Wolf Fang, as the speed of the technique makes it impossible for the user to track targets by sight while using it. The urine can also be useful for temporarily blinding the target if it hits their eyes. This technique can also be performed while the Inuzuka and his/her ninken have transformed using the Human Beast Combination Transformation: Double-Headed Wolf.

Technique: Human Beast Combination Transformation: Double-Headed Wolf
Field: Ninjutsu, Collaboration techniques.
Type: None.
Rank: B-rank.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: Self.
Hand Seals: None.
Duration: Six posts.
Cooldown: Eight posts.
Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 20.
Description: A Combination Transformation where man and beast become a single entity. It is a specialty of the Inuzuka clan, a clan that has been walking side by side with ninken for generations. They fuse into a two-headed wolf, thus drastically increasing their size, and power. In their direct attacks, they demonstrate great efficiency. Furthermore, using techniques in addition to this gives birth to an extraordinary destructive power.
