Came up with some of these (And stole one or two from wikipedia) while thinking about how a lot of people wanted sword skills anywho. The idea is that these skills would either be included in a sword non-clan profession or be available to anyone who has the right sword equipped and the right amount of sword skill.
Sword Techniques
Appearance of the New Moon: The user quickly brandishes the blade, striking any and all targets immediately in front of them for 1.2x sword skill, reminiscent of a newly visible moon. Requires 2,500 sword skill and 1,200 speed to learn.
Dance of the Crescent Moon: Inspired by Hayate Gekko's technique, the user appears to "vanish" as four clones appear in his/her place. The user re-appears behind the closest foe, striking twice for 0.9x sword skill and 0.5x Speed per hit. Requires 5,000 sword skill and 3,000 speed to learn.
Half Moon's Rise: 50% chance for the attack to miss when initiated. The user strikes at a target immediately in front of and immediately behind themselves, causing 1.5x sword skill plus an additional 0.9x speed to the target. Requires 7,500 sword skill and 5,000 speed to learn.
Dance of the Full Moon: Advanced version of Dance of the Crescent Moon, the user begins by "vanishing", leaving eight clones in his/her place. Reappearing behind the closest enemy, the user strikes three times for 1x sword skill and 0.9x speed in damage. Each successive hit has a 10% chance to miss (Ex. 1st hit has a 10% chance, 2nd has a 20%, so on). Requires 15,000 sword skill and 7,000 speed to learn.
Pale Moon Assault: In a movement invisible to the enemy, the swordsman quickly sheathes and redraws his/her blade, slashing everyone around them for 1.6x sword skill and 1x speed in damage and knocking all effected targets back 3 squares. The user is left unable to move for 3 seconds after this slashing motion. Requires 20,000 sword skill and 15,000 speed to learn.
Zanbatou Techniques
Earth Cleave: The user slams the ground in front of them, damaging the enemy for 1.2x sword skill and 0.4x tai. A shockwave ripples through the 3 squares behind the initial space, slowing anyone hit (No damage is received on these 3 spaces). Requires 3,500 Sword Skill and 2,000 tai to learn.
Cloudsplitter: The user "rises" above the ground, evading any attacks that might have been coming at them, and slams back down full-force, hitting an enemy immediately in front of them for 1.5x sword skill. Unless the enemy has moved, the user then preforms a second slash, hitting for 1.2x tai due to the upward force. Requires 8,000 sword skill and 5,500 tai to learn.
Roar of Force: The user lets out a fierce battle cry, stunning all within 2 spaces in each direction for 2 seconds. The user's battle cry also restores 5% of their health at the cost of 10% chakra. Requires 12,000 sword skill to learn.
Vacuum Slash: The user slashes with a ferocious force, creating a vacuum that strikes all opponents in a straight line, sucking them in closer to the user. The strike itself causes 1.6x sword skill and 1x tai in damage, but leaves the user drained and decreases tai and sword skill by 50% for ten seconds. Requires 20,000 sword skill and 25,000 tai to learn.
Just some thoughts. xD
