Kyoushin no Ofuda

An item utilized by some residents of In'ei Temple that is created using the Chakra Receptive Paper and Chakra Receptive Ink manufactured by the temple monks. Because both the ink and the paper used in the creation of this type of ofuda are particularly receptive to the user's chakra, they are rather more powerful than they would otherwise be. The resonant nature of the paper and ink allows these tags to greatly intensify the strength of whatever technique they are used with. They are either black in color, or blank, having the appearance of the un-inscribed chakra receptive paper tags. If white, they are blank, and the pigment must be used to inscribe the symbols by hand. If black, they have already been dipped in the organic chakra receptive pigment the ink is made from. Upon concentration, all of the pigment will move to form an inscription in the center of the charm, and thus change from pure black and un-inscribed to the appearance of a regular ofuda. This is accomplished with very little effort on the part of the user and the chakra required is negligible. Using this item, monks are able to create ofuda to fit the situation, rather than having to physically write upon the paper. Using these tags is preferable to pre-preparing ofuda for battle, as specific ofuda can be created upon demand.
