Nara Clan Jutsu

Name: Shadow Imitation Technique
Rank: C
Type: Hidden/Ninjutsu
Element: Yin
Range: Starting: 10m from user shadow
Handseals: Rat
Description:Extending and manipulating their shadow, the user will attempt to connect it with an individual or groups shadow(s). Upon connection, the victim(s) will find themselves unable to move on their own. Their posture will immediately reflect their captors and their bodies will mimic any motions the user of this jutsu makes. It is possible to break out of this technique, but requires a certain amount of strength. Alternately, the user can combat this strength with more chakra being fueled into the technique, effectively making it a battle of wills. A captured enemy who has the strength level of 55 or greater can break free of the technique unless the user pays 1.5x the regular upkeep cost. A captured enemy with 75 strength or greater increases this to 2x.  Additionally the user must pay  50% more upkeep cost per extra enemy captured. 2 equating to 1.5x, 3 to 2x, 4 to 2.5x, etc.
Moves at 60 Speed, Range for Jutsu boosts 25m for every 3 posts trained.

Name: Shadow Neck Binding Technique
Rank: B
Type: Hidden/Ninjutsu
Element: Yin
Range: 10m
Handseals: Rat
Description:This technique branches off the shadow possession technique. From the victim’s feet, a shadowy hand will begin to wrap up their leg and eventually their body toward their neck. Upon arrival at this destination, the hand will proceed to strangle the target. Normally this process takes two posts to complete. At 55 strength of the victim, this is extended by a single post, and at 70 this is doubled taking two additional posts. The post following this timeline’s completion the victim will fall unconscious. If held for another post, the victim will be strangled to death. This can only be used on a single victim and not a group.





Name: Shadow Sewing Technique
Rank: B
Type: Hidden/Ninjutsu
Element: Yin
Range: 20m
Handseals: Rat → Bird
Description: The user creates ten thick tendrils from their shadow about the size of a quarter in diameter with piercing cone shaped heads made for penetration. These can be used to attack the target, either hitting vitals to kill and attacking multiple people at once, or simply using multiple tendrils to tie down up to two people, piercing through their body and reconnecting to the ground. One cannot struggle out of this technique and must find a way to remove/sever the tendrils to escape.





Name: Shadow Gathering Technique
Rank: A
Type: Hidden/Ninjutsu
Element: Yin
Range: 20m
Handseals: Rat
Description: This is a ninjutsu using materialised shadows, but compared to the Shadow Sewing Technique from the same line, this technique places emphasis on the minute control of the shadow's movements. It is accurate enough to even make the tentacles go through tiny holes. Basically, this technique takes the user's own shadow and transforms and stretches it into countless thin tentacles, which are then used to grab objects and pull them in. Also, one can skilfully make use of the tentacle-shaped shadow tendrils by using them to lift up and throw weapons like kunai and such. This technique has many possible applications and uses. There are no hand seals used for this technique, but the hand movements resemble that of Gaara's Sand Binding Coffin.
