{Earth Release (Journeyman)}Though hard work and dedication to refining his techniques, Daichi’s unique ‘Dust Style’ has finally started to take on a tangible form. In addition to using standard earth techniques to create simple structures, he has discovered a means to control the individual particles of dust he has created. This technique is extremely specific, centered around using the chakra within the dust itself to form bonds between them. This allows him to control large amounts of dust particles without any more drain on his chakra than standard techniques, as each piece of dust is virtually weightless. Even grains of sand would be too heavy for this to be an effective means of manipulation, making this an extremely specific technique.
By utilizing these principles, he is able to control the flow of the dust he generates. This can take the form of moving and shaping a cloud, or condensing dust into solid stone. This serves as an effective means of disruption as well as attack, as it allows him to launch solid projectiles from his dust clouds to attack from unexpected angles. This chakra infused dust of his is particularly irritating as well, causing those who come into contact with it to suffer from lingering eye irritation and bouts of sneezing. It’s a strange form of Earth Release, but slowly Daichi has started to show that he might be on to something here.
Rhinoceros Contract [Rookie]} Daichi has signed a contract with the rhinos. Performing the summoning technique, they can now summon [1/2/3/4/5] different members of the rhinos contract.
↳ Kodokuna Hori Kodo is among the youngest members of the Idaina go Tsunoyama, and she absolutely hates it. The young warrior is constantly seeking to prove herself in battle, and will never hesitate to throw herself into a conflict without a single question asked. All she needs to know is who she's supposed to be skewering with that pointy horn of hers. Personally, she believes that entrusting herself to a human was a poor decision on her patriarch's part. But she has had to take enough lumps from those above her in this quest for glory that she knows not to go against what she's told. And so she reluctantly offers her services to Daichi, even if she's fairly sure HE'S the one who should be listening to HER.[break][break]
The young rhino's connection with the earth is natural, much like most of her kind. Though she chooses not to use it beyond enhancing her own physical abilities. She much prefers getting in the thick of it, skewering and stomping her opposition with her own brute force. As such, she has learned to use doton to enhancer her mobility. Along with being able to walk along any vertical or horizontal surface, she is able to burrow underground with ease. While submerged, she is able to move with as much speed and power as she would above ground, and is even able to dip under or pop out mid stride. While underground, she is able to use her horn to sense the movements of those above, allowing her to track targets down even when she can't see them. While only standing at about three and a half feet tall, her broad form is capable of easily transporting a human adult. Though any additional burden would significantly slow her down and make combat more difficult. Though she wouldn't admit that any time soon.
