The Hozuki clan hail from a background in piracy, and many of its members make their homes as shinobi in the Hidden Mist Village. Known for their expeditious nature, they can appear just about anywhere, favoring coastal territories. Many members of the clan file their teeth to make themselves look more intimidating, but they are predominantly known for their ability to turn into water.
Hijutsu
Hydrification Hozuki learn how to turn their bodies into water. At first this requires a great deal of concentration and the moulding of many hand seals, making it somewhat difficult for practical use. As a Hozuki learns more about their hijutsu they can begin keeping their bodies in a liquid state while maintaining their form, which allows them to turn into water expeditiously. In this form they can use their bodies as a source of water for suiton techniques, but they also become vulnerable to lighting, even a small shock can disable them and turn them into a pile of jelly. Hozuki normally can not use other elemental ninjutsu while they have hydrification enabled, although some grand masters have been able to defy this limitation.
Hydrification causes extreme thirst as it is used, as little splashes of water escape the user as they move. The Hozuki can replenish by drinking more fluid. The other limitation of hydrification is that it consumes a moderate amount of chakra with each shift.
