Tannin (哮龍, Kōryū) are rare species that have only loyalty towards themselves . They have no natural habitat, instead they lay dormant beneath the world's oceans, nesting in remote locations. Tannin are naturally attuned to Fire and Water Releae ninjutsu, making them their standard chakra form. Due to their use of Fire Release, Tannin are considered by some to have been the one of the original Fire and Water Release users.

They're hide is immensely durable, and they're known for their fast swimming and their mixture of fire and water breathing, common to all Tannin.
