Hozuki Clan

The members of this clan possess the ability to turn their bodies into liquid state using the Hydrification Technique. This ability, however, seems to require that they stay well hydrated at all times and as such at least two known members are known to carry water bottles around with them. The Hozuki clan also produces exceptionally skilled weapons users.

The Hozuki Clansman may take a free Weapon Focus feat, and he may also take the specialization and greater weapon focus feats for this chosen weapon type without needing to meet the Chakra Striker or Samurai level requirement. 
A Hozuki Clansman is also given the Water Affinity for free.
== Hydrification Jutsu ==
From a single hair to the skin and muscles, everything can be liquefied and solidified at will. Be it to evade an enemy's attack during a short range battle, to infiltrate a structure, or to launch a surprise attack in a liquefied state, this technique boasts a high strategic value. Applying this technique, the user can also modify their body parts for suitable situations or even use the liquid as projectiles. Though boasting high strategic value, a way to contain a user of this technique is to lock them up in an airtight container so they cannot move about. When the user passes out, they turn into a jelly-like state. Since this technique turns the body into water, the Hōzuki are extremely vulnerable to Lightning Release techniques.
This turns the user into an Ooze-like creature. They become immune to critical hits and flanking, and can move at normal speed. Loss of hands means that a character cannot use jutsu, though that only applies when the user is fully liquified such as for infiltration purposes. Using this technique means that a user is immune to slashing and piercing damage, though they still take bludgeoning damage at a 50% value. Physical-based jutsu are also subject to this damage reduction. This does not grant any form of elemental resistance though. (Fire style jutsu, for example, still deals damage, though Earth style might not be as effective) Lightning jutsu that affect the user of Hydification deal 50% more damage (as if empowered) and any saves made against lightning style jutsu are done at a -5 modifier. If subject to a lightning style attack, a Hozuki must make a fort save (DC 15 + the level of the technique) or be knocked unconscious.
