When the comforts of civilization begin to dull our senses, we must never forget that in the beginning, there was war. And war. And more war. Long before there were empires, there were humans consumed with greed and the hunger for power. Resources, territories, information—these were the forms of sustenance upon which we preyed. Today, we call such habits vices. Oh, how arrogant we have become! Are we not still impelled by those primordial emotions? Is the advent of war so far-fetched? But alas, for you to truly understand, we must dive deeper into this land’s half-forgotten past.
There was a time when might was the only law that humankind knew. Fearsome clans roamed throughout the land, seeking amenable grounds within which they could take root and opposing forces against whom they could test their mettle. Given the irregularity of nature’s bounty, certain regions appealed more than others, and dominion over such coveted territories became the spark that ignited the earliest inter-clan wars. These fierce, internecine affairs tended to conclude only when one side had decimated their competition into oblivion, and many clans of story were rendered extinct during this period.
The victors of war, having claimed their territories, often made truces with surrounding locals, offering protection in exchange for access to the yields of agriculture. Over time, certain communities emerged as more dominant than others, either due to numbers or sheer talent, and their rapid expansion would force smaller, neighboring communities to either collapse into their fold or be devastated. When the dust settled, humankind found itself divided into the five major territories that we are familiar with today. And was the bloodshed over? With our lands obtained and our bellies filled, were we finally content?

Handle Length: An ancient and powerful weapon of the Uchiha clan, this large war fan is said to have been lost during the First Great Shinobi war. While typically perceived as nothing more than a standard war fan, one quickly comes to realize how unnaturally potent it truly is. Seemingly indestructible, the fan has been said to be incredibly durable, sustaining potent blows without so much as a scratch being left upon itself. This is because of the fan's unique ability to absorb any form of chakra, whether it be raw manifestations or elemental conjurations. It can greedily devour the entirety of the energy in question.[break][break]
At the user's behest, it can then redirect the consumed force in an enormous conical blast aimed at all in front of it (this beam extends roughly ten meters from the fan, and is nearly three meters wide). This ability can be used against blunt forces as well, instantly draining the momentum and power behind an attack and then emitting a potent blast of force and wind in a identical conical shape. It should be noted that only the fan, itself, possesses this unique ability and the handle does not. Likewise, the ability to absorb and redirect only occurs when the fan is in the user's hand.[break][break]
The force\technique being absorbed must be immediately redirected after absorption, and cannot be stored for a later time. Failure to release the pent-up technique in the same post will result in the force absorbed simply being nullified. Furthermore, this ability does not work on overly large jutsu, but rather modest-sized techniques (i.e this technique would be able to stop the Grand Fireball, but not a Bijuu Dama). This weapon has durability comparable to level 10 defense[break][break]
