Fire Release: Basic Manipulation

With this technique, the user spreads fire-converted chakra and lets it take form on their body rather than exiting through their mouth. While not commonly practiced, this technique can act as a starter to more advanced Fire Release techniques, and can even be combined with other techniques.

The most common area to apply this technique is on the tips of the fingers as it's easiest to control there. If the user isn't careful and skilled with their chakra control, they can end up burning themselves. The one place the user cannot apply the technique is the hair. No matter how much control they have, their hair will get burned if they so much as get too close to the hairline.

When the user first practices this technique, they will have almost no control on how large the flames are or where they appear. Nakuka used this technique and accidentally set a bed on fire, and Sasuke Uchiha received a bald patch on the back of his head when he first attempted this technique.

Once mastered, the user is able to create flames at any shape and size and control them. It can be used as an attack at this point, but unless the user mixes this technique with another, it's easy to dodge and overcome with other simple techniques.
