Gods dammit guys, I've got three water release techniques, just as many as wind release, and two are used for hiding while one is a common technique in Kirigakure.
X, you could still be part of the Inuzuka clan, but they're not really a tribe. Though if you just want a strong connection to an animal you might wanna look into some summoning jutsu, and then figure out a main technique that would work in sync with the summons (like how poison, flexible taijutsu, and/or genjutsu would probably work well with snakes). Senjutsu would be the end path, and the summons would be more of a supplement to whatever else it is you're doing, to differentiate from Golurk.
Or just go the Inuzuka or Shizune route, where the entire thing's based around your animal, or you just have a pet.

I want my character to use Lava. Onmyoji do end up developing their own demonic chakra based off of their interactions with their youkai, so I think that's doable, either eventually if you start off at a low power level or immediately if you start with your Onmyoji fully developed. Though, if fully developed it would be likely for your Onmyoji to have handed off their Kodai Youkai to one of the younger kids in the clan if there are any. It's just the one head clan though, so it's basically just one family and not really too unrealistic for there to not be any kids old enough to pass it on to. |

Yeah I think its going to be a storm released. And I think it will just stick with a pet.But if I want too do storm realese then do I have to do anything special for the bio then.

Neo could have developed a Kekkei Genkai from his mother, but since e also has Wanyudo, he'd probably be one of the overseers of the exam.
Also, don't forget about Taijutsu, Barrier Jutsu, Puppet Techniques, Shurikenjutsu, and a bunch of other stuff. There's also gun usage, hacking possibility, nanomachines (son), etc.

Just add a Kekkei Genkai for the family. We've only seen Storm Release from Kumogakure ninja, but hybrid natures have been seen outside of their villages of origin anyway. And oh gods, I dunno if Neo should have all that power. He already ends up powerful just by virtue of Wanyudo. Adding versatility into the mix just sounds awful. |

Or he could just be part of a different clan/village.

I want my character to use lava. And lasers. Well, Storm release uses lasers, so that makes the two hard to combine since neither of those use the same types in their combos, and as an Onmyoji you're going to be inclined towards not using technology... |

My character will be older, in his mid thirties, and his Onmyoji will already be fully developed. Due to something I'm still working on, his village was cursed, and most of the young males died in a plague. The village has a small supply of females, and so, my character is forced to keep his Demon Jewel(Whatever it's name is, too tired to think). And he also serves as the Chief of his Clan. I really need to do some research... |

Sick. Ninja would actually be somewhat common in most places, making it odd for him to not know anyone who knows any, but the urgency of his situation and the lower density of ninjas in the bigger nations would make that excusable. He would still probably be loyal to some country, whichever one he's born in though. Not that people are naturally tied to their home nation, but still. Map for original Naruto: vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/naruto/images/3/3e/Naruto_World_Map.svg/revision/latest/scale-to-width/800?cb=20110114161251Red dots are pretty much ninja villages (though for the life of me I can't remember what the second one in the Land of Fire is), and we'll likely have some changed borders (not sure on that, dunno what ideas Golurk has) and Youkai no Kuni would be on that northern peninsula. Seems legit, ability-wise, though "Gravity Release" would probably just be a Yang release, and teleportation isn't entirely doable, unless it's done like summoning or the Flying Thunder God Technique. Dojutsu have proven themselves capable of doing it, but it's generally not perfect, like Kamui and Amenotejikara. All in all, I like it, but the abilities need to be applied carefully. I'll look more into canon abilities then and try to draw from them then. Same for geography. I havent looked too much into the actual world yet. Although with all the crazy stuff that nijas can do, I don't see why teleporting is out of the question. It's summoning yourself but to another location. If it's too OP at the start then he'll just develop it later. Also, I'm not seeing how yang=gravity. Yang = spiritual energy? How does that relate to gravity elemental attacks? |

Gravity alteration wouldn't be any kind of Change in Chakra Nature.
Also, Neo, the village that you're from, that would have to be Jigokugakure, which we've already established.
Doug, should we change the jewels to O-fuda? That makes more sense.

Could I do gravity as like an elemental combo like dust release?

How does that relate to gravity elemental attacks? I just don't know what gravity would factor into, since I don't remember any canonical gravity abilities that weren't Pain's, and I don't remember Pain's ability being described. Thing is, there isn't really a gravity element, not in this at least, or as far as I can recall. And teleporting isn't out of the question, just restricted to summoning like you mentioned. And summoning isn't perfect. You need some sort of seal or connection to the place to do the summon. Look at the Flying Thunder God Technique for an excellent example. And Golurk, I still have the same thought process for those that I did for the other things you had mentioned. We certainly could, but they seem easier to lose or destroy, and could just be used for lower-level youkai. I mean, there should be something distinguishing them, which is really the biggest and only substantial thing I have. As long as that's addressed, sure. |

Well, the O-Fuda would be hard to destroy if they contain a Youkai. They also have a role in actual Onmyoji's duties.
Also, couldn't you use a larger O-Fuda for the stronger Youkai?
Like, for a Kodai Youkai, you'd have a flag-sized O-Fuda.

Those first two things are legit things, I've already acknowledged the first one with your last suggestion, and neither address the main issue I have.
That sounds like a huge pain in the ass, and hard to easily transform with.
Then again, maybe the transformation shouldn't be easy. Take a little time to prepare or some s***...

Or you could hang the O-Fuda on a pole and beat people with it.

Which would greatly amuse me, but still, seems somewhat reckless, and might make transforming harder.
...We... should probably figure out the exact mechanics sooner rather than later.

Seal them into weapons!
There! Sound good? Be primarily weapons like that, which you could actually see monks or something using.
Then again, considering the origin of the Kodai Youkai, the weapons wouldn't necessarily have to seem like priestly or religious weapons, or whatever you wanna label them.

Weapons makes no sense.
An Onmyoji was essentially a court wizard or priest. They also used O-Fuda in their works.
