Dragon Kata (Kasumi)

Dragon Kata is a very dangerous and powerful fighting style that can only be used by dragon sages. This fighting style focuses on trying to find key moments to transform in order to always have the element of surprise on their side, allowing them to have the upper hand.

Description
The Dragon Kata is a Senjutsu and Taijutsu fighting style exclusive to sages who trained with dragons. It allows the user to cloak their body parts or in entire body in natural energy to augment their physical abilities to draconic levels. The natural energy can only create an imbalance of natural energy and chakra in the limb it is surrounding to allow its users to temporarily morph their body parts or entire body into that of a dragon to use them in hand-to-hand combat. The transformation is very fluid and nearly instant, which makes it even easier to use in unarmed combat.

The Dragon Kata focuses on fluid movements and a strong stance. The fluid movements allow the user to easily maneuver themselves around the opponent as well as allow them to make better use of their environment. When it comes to attacking, this style favors fast and explosive attacks and grabs in order to make better use of their ability to transform. The style seems to use the practitioner's transformation ability sparingly in order to prevent from becoming predictable as well as keep their opponent worried and on their toes.
