Kekkei Genkai (血継限界; Literally meaning "[a technique] limited to inheritance by blood, or Bloodline Limit") are abilities passed down genetically in specific clans. Kekkei Genkai and their related jutsu can't be taught or copied by others, but it is possible to confer the ability to another person if it's localized in a particular organ like the eyes via organ transplant, like Obito passing his Sharingan eye to Kakashi. Kekkei Genkai abilities that work via the user's eye are called dojutsu. Kekkei Genkai is usually translated into Bloodline limit or Bloodlimit techniques.

List of Kekkei Genkai

Kurama clan's Kekkei Genkai

Every few generations a member of the Kurama clan will be born with an incredible talent for genjutsu. The clan member's talent in that field is such that their genjutsu is completely irresistible, so much so that only knocking a person out cold has any chance of awakening them from it. Furthermore, the genjutsu is so powerful that it causes the brain to make anything that happens to the victim within the genjutsu physically real, allowing the clan member to potentially kill their opponents with genjutsu. Such frightening power is not without its drawbacks, however. The user can rarely control the full extent of their abilities, and as such their subconscious will often regulate that power, leading to the creation of a second personality in control of that power. This personality then overwhelms the original, turning the individual into a monster that's a danger to everyone around them.

Other Kekkei Genkai

Hexoshigakures Kekkei Genkai, Dojutsu and Blood-line Limits

Hexoshigakure had over 22 clans with over 54 different kekkei genkai, dojutsu, and abilities. This effectively made it the most kekkei gankai diverse village in the entire shinobi world. Some of the kekkei genkai are extinct but the chakra, dojutsu, and abilities remain in sealed forbidden chambers scatter through out the shinobi world, wait to be revived again, when the time is right.

Notes

It should be noted that there have been some techniques shown in the anime and manga that have not been explicitly labeled a kekkei genkai. It should be assumed that unless explicitly stated, these abilities are not kekkei genkai; rather, they are just specialized techniques that a person or clan developed and possibly, in the case of a clan, passes on. A good example is Naruto Uzumaki, who is a container of the demon fox; his rapid healing and secondary chakra supply, as well as the chakra's ability to alter his physiology to a certain degree, are a result of his access to the demon fox's chakra sealed within him. A requirement of a kekkei genkai, on the other hand, is that it is genetically passed on from parent to child within a specific group of individuals or clan. Although certain techniques may be exclusive to a clan because they are a well-kept secret, such as the Aburame clan's ability to control insects or Kidomaru's web abilities, they do not qualify as kekkei genkai because they could be learned by others outside the clan if information on the techniques was made available.
