Nara, Hitaku

.:: INTRODUCTION ::.

The Nara clan are a well known and respected group of individuals that reside within Konohagakure. Their sharp mindset to anything tactical and mysterious use of manipulating the Shadows make them a unique and one of a kind-clan. However, they also possess a flaw and that is their extreme laid back and lazy behavior - which can be easily overcome when they are given a task with which they believe is worthy of persueing. The Nara hold a close bond with the Yamanaka and Akimichi clans, occassionally placing their shinobi together in squads forming a powerful squad utilizing a combination of attacks. Nara clansmen are viewed as natural born leaders and in times like these with War in Konoha's midst, their skillsets are needed.

[Kage mane no jutsu - Shadow imitation technique]
Jutsu Type: Ninjutsu
Rank: C
Cp: 5
Description: Kage Mane no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique developed by the Nara clan. Its original purpose was as a skill to help delay any pursuers. After forming the needed hand seals, the clan member is able to manipulate their shadow along any surface. By using other nearby shadows they can further extend the reach of their shadow, however they are limited to the surface area of the original cast shadow. Once the shadow reaches the target it will extend into its own shadow and completely immobilize it. The target will then succumb to the user’s very movements as if they were reflected on a mirror.
PvP: Stun up to 3 Targets for 1d4 Rounds. (STR Vs ATK DC to break free) While stunned each time target gets hit the Stun does not break but Duration does lower by 1. While maintaining this Jutsu the Nara cannot ATK unless a clan Jutsu permits.
