BACKGROUND
A time long ago before even the thought of war existed a young Orion Hyuga looked up to the stars and aside from becoming instantly fascinated in them, they also drew a connection between both the night sky's network of stars and people's inner chakra networks. This fascination only grew with time and eventually became a shared interest amoungst most Hyuga people. Discussion was had and stories where shared and after a while it was concluded that stars were the chakra network of the universe and were made up of the spirits of those who have passed before them.
This belief was passed on from family to family and through generations, eventually becoming part of the clan's tradition to tell these tales to their youth. However, the choice to believe them or not was always up to the individual. Eventually, war did become a thought— a truly ghastly one at that. Such a vile thing would become a harsh reality that raged on for years. Yet even so, these stories of the stars, the chakra network of the universe still somehow made their way through to the present, the hope these stories represented in such a tumultuous and chaotic time now lived with Princess of the clan today, Hoshiko Hyuga.
Hoshi had always been a rather quiet child and when she did speak it was always soft and often hard to hear. Despite this her love for the stars was perhaps louder than anything imaginable. Her passion for these stories showed in her expressions, in the way she regaled other youngsters in her clan with these tales, in the way she looked to the stars at night since she was a little girl first hearing it all herself.
That which her ancestor saw, she definitely saw it too.
Often she'd be found outside at night observing the night's sky and making patterns within the star network within her own mind. This interest only expanded for her when her father, Orion whom was named after the first Hyuga to figure out the stars, taught her about something called the "Zodiacs" a group of star networks that form different animals and beings in the sky that all have their own meanings and purpose; hell, she almost lost her mind with how excited she got!
During the midst of the war with her father away to help, her mother would sometimes go out to a meeting with some allied clans. She would take the young Hoshiko with her on her journey's. During one particular visit to the lands owned by the Hatake clan however, the Princess would trip and graze her knee bad enough to draw blood. She wouldn't have much time to be upset over the injury however as she came face to face with a little Hatake boy by the name of Junpei who promptly healed her grazed knee and sparked her second fascination— medical ninjutsu— at the same time. The two made fast friends and would always play together whenever these visits occurred.
By the time Hoshi reached adulthood the war was drawing to a close but not before it took one last thing from her— her father. During one of the final battles fought Orion would venture out to battle only to never return home, leaving Hoshi's mother to lead the clan alone. Her own leadership was cut short suddenly however by an attempted assassination via poison which actually failed to kill the Queen, though it did render her unfit to lead. This left leadership of the Hyuga in the still young and inexperienced Hoshiko who was anything but prepared for this sudden responsibility, or at least she felt as such since on the outside she seemed to handle it rather swimmingly.
Still as soft spoken as she ever was, seeing her around became something of a rarity following such tragedies. She put her continued love for the stars and zodiacs on the back burner for the meantime, meaning no more nightly star watches, among other things. Instead, she resigned herself to gaining more medical knowledge. It took a lot of her focus as she tried her damnedest and silently struggled to find a way to successfully bring her mother back to full health all the while leading her clan at the same time.

CLAN TRAITS
[BOON] BYAKUGAN: The legendary Dōjutsu of the Hyūga Clan, the Byakugan is unlocked by perseverance or as a reaction to dire circumstances. It grants a user a variety of abilities, such as heightened perception, a near-360 degree field of view and the ability to see chakra and the chakra network in detail. You can activate the Byakugan by spending four chakra. Once per thread each while the Byakugan is active, you can do the following things:
- Once per thread, when using a taijutsu or nintaijutsu, increase your taijutsu statistic (or your combined nintaijutsu statistic) by 5 for that jutsu, ignoring the maximum.
- Once per thread, when using a healing ninjutsu, increase your ninjutsu statistic by 10 for that jutsu, ignoring the maximum.
- Once per thread when you use a support Genjutsu, treat it as one rank higher
If you are blinded or knocked unconscious at any point, the Byakugan deactivates and must be activated again for another four chakra.
[BASE] GENTLE FIST: The Gentle Fist is a form of hand-to-hand combat used by members of the Hyūga Clan, a Hiden jutsu that makes use of their natural ability to expel chakra from and into every point in their chakra network with ease. Clan members have access to the Gentle Fist effect on their Taijutsu:
- You can spend 1 XP to apply Gentle Fist to a Taijutsu or a Healing Ninjutsu.
- A jutsu with Gentle Fist applied can only be used while the Byakugan is active.
- A Taijutsu with Gentle Fist applied becomes a Nintaijutsu, gaining that effect for free.
- When a Nintaijutsu with Gentle Fist applied deals damage, the target can only take a long action on their next post.
- When a Healing Ninjutsu with Gentle Fist applied is used to heal, the target regains additional health at the end of their posts equal to 2x your Ninjutsu statistic for two posts.
[BANE] BLIND SPOT: All members of the Hyūga Clan have a secret weakness; there is a blind spot in their Byakugan's vision.
- While the Byakugan is active, a Hyūga Clan member can have their Blind Spot targeted directly by an attack. If targeted in this way, the attack has only half power (rounding down) for the purposes of being dodged by an evasion jutsu, but will do twice as much damage if it hits.
TECHNIQUES
E RANK
Name: Minamo hokō no Jutsu [Water Walking Technique]
Rank: E
XP: Starter
Type: Utility Ninjutsu
Description: This technique involves focusing chakra to the bottom of ones feet. The amount of chakra that needs to be emitted changes constantly so the user has to be emitting a constant stream of chakra from the bottom of their feet and using the repellent force to walk across the water's surface. Too little and the user will sink, too much and the user will greatly disturb the water's surface. Additionally, a user under water can focus chakra on their hands or any other body part that makes contact with the surface of the water. If they were submerged, they can climb atop the water as if they were climbing out of a pool.
[This technique uses no chakra points.]
Name: Nobori no Jutsu [Climbing Technique]
Rank: E
XP: Starter
Type: Utility Ninjutsu
Description: This technique involves focusing a fixed amount of chakra to the bottom of one's feet, and using that to climb solid without using one's hands or climbing equipment. If the stream of chakra is too weak, the user will lose their footing on the surface and fall off. If it is too strong, the user will be pushed away from the surface, causing the surface to be damaged around the point of contact and the user will fall.
[This technique uses no Chakra Points.]
