StyleBasis: Razor Vine Sword *Note: Only the Razor Vine Sword may be used with this style.*
Style Description: This is a quick mid-range weapon style. Designed specifically to increase the power of horizontal slashes and vertical strikes. This style uses a weapon that allows for increased range.
Whip Formation: Due to the nature of the Vine Whip Sword type, it may be detached to form a type of razor whip, though the swords are designed to only be detached through chakra. This aspect includes the length of the whip, which progresses as one grows in the style. The sword may be held in whip form 1 post for every 2 control.
Whip Control: Through the use of chakra focused into the Vine Whip Sword, additional control may be given to the sword while in whip formation. Control over the whip formation progresses as one grows in the style. The full power of the whip crack may only be dealt 3 inches from the tip of the whip.
