Description: Shadow Bending Technique is a basic but core move of the Nara family that allows them to manipulate the shape of their shadow, and therefore the source of their shadow techniques. This allows them to bend the shadow into any form imaginable, such as thinning it out to increase it's distance from the Nara. The shadow cannot be removed from the ground or made solid with this, and while it can climb walls and the like, it is stretched out as though it were moving along the ground while climbing walls, therefore shortening the length of space it can travel. The distance a Nara can squeeze out of their shadow varies depending on circumstance and rank. If the shadow is moving through a shadowed environment, such as through forest canopy or at night, the distance they can gain is larger than when in direct sunlight.

D Rank/Genin: 5 metres [8 in shadow]
C Rank/Chuunin: 10 metres [15 in shadow]
B Rank/Special Jounin: 15 metres [20 in shadow]
A Rank/Jounin: 20 metres [25 in shadow]
S Rank/Sannin: 25 metres [30 in shadow]
SS Rank/Kage: 30 metres [40 in shadow]

Name: Shadow Gathering Technique (Kageyose no Jutsu ~ 影寄せの術)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: C
Type: Offensive | Defensive | Supplementary
Element: Shadow
Range: The user's shadow + 10 metres
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: Up to 3 posts
Cooldown: 5 posts [cooldown starts once deactivated]
Description: Shadow Gathering Technique is a basic technique where the Nara Shinobi manipulates a single strand of shadow from their shadow, which they use to manipulate objects in the environment. Unlike many Nara moves, this requires no hand seals, and simply requires the Nara willing it. Once activated, a thin fibrous strand of shadow can grow and be freely manipulated from their shadow. It has no edge or tip, but can be used to slap with the force of the user; more than enough to knock down incoming projectiles, as well as picking up and re-firing scattered projectiles in the environment. The Nara clan's control over this limb is incredibly accurate, as if it were their own hand, allowing them to operate complex tasks like weaving it through tight spaces. Activation costs 15 chakra, and for every turn afterward that it is active, it costs 5 chakra.

Name: Shadow Sewing Technique (Kagenui no Jutsu ~ 影縫いの術)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: A
Type: Offensive | Supplementary
Element: Shadow
Range: The user's Shadow + 10 metres
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: Binding threads last until broken. Move itself lasts one post.
Cooldown: 6 posts
Description: Shadow Sewing Technique is a basic but powerful move that is designed to capture or kill based on the shinobi's preference. Once the Shinobi has positioned their shadow appropriately, they form the Rat and bird Hand Seals, causing ten thin, fast threads of shadow to shoot up towards the intended target. The Nara can aim these shadows to pierce through vulnerable arteries such as the jugular and Femoral Arteries, causing a target to bleed profusely. After two posts, they will feel light headed, after three posts they will feel woozy and dizzy, after 5 posts they will pass out and on the sixth post if they haven't been given medical attention they will die. If seeking to bind someone, the Nara can aim these threads into non-vital areas, and once they pierce the flesh, they will expand, sending out several tendrils inside the user's skin which hook in with barbs, making them near impossible to remove without flaying the surrounding flesh for several inches on all sides of the puncture wound. When the threads are broken [when hit by an equal strength move] the shadows piercing the individual will vanish, therefore the binding can be removed by breaking the connection to the base of the threads. The threads will stay in place even if they lose connection to the Nara's shadow.

Name: Shadow Style: Shadow Clone Jutsu
Canon/Custom: Cutsom
Rank: C+1
Type: Supplementary
Element: Shadow [Yin]
Range: User's Shadow + 10 meters
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: [Maintainable, -5 per post]
Cooldown: Duration + 4
Description: The Shadow Style: Shadow Clone, despite its name is more akin to the various elemental clone jutsu. The Nara member will focus his chakra into the  thier shadow, causing it to rise up, forming out a single duplicate of the user, though jet black in appearance. Like other solid clone techniques, the clones can be used to perform tasks the user is unable or unwilling to do for themselves. The range of the clone is limited however, as it can not travel very far from the original body without losing control. Like other clone techniques, if the clone is injured enough it will revert back to a normal shadow. The clone itself has no chakra pool of its own; it remains connected to the user by a thin strand of shadow. Instead, the user is able to use the shadow clone as relay point, projecting jutsu out from the clone as if it were the real user, thus extending the reach of his/her jutsu. The clone automatically disperses when the user runs out of chakra, or when hit by any attack that can cause a noteworthy level of physical damage [second/third degree burns, broken bones, stab wounds, etc].

The +1 the Nara receives raises the clones defenses, enabling it to withstand more attacks before dispersing [2 C-ranks/4 D-ranks].

Name: Transformation Technique (変化の術 ~ Henge no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: E
Type: Supplementary
Element: N/A
Range: Self/Sight
Specialty: None
Duration: -5 every two posts.
Cooldown: 2 posts after deactivation.
Description: Given all the missions ninja are assigned to--battle, intelligence gathering, diversions--this is a priceless ninjutsu. It is typically used to change into people other than oneself, but one also has the ability to change into animals, plants, and even inanimate objects like weapons. This gives this technique an abundance of uses. The transformation of a skilled shinobi will be visually and physically the same as the original, so it will be impossible to tell the two apart. On the other hand, a transformation performed by an inexperienced person will have obvious discrepancies. It will be impossible to deceive anyone with it. This is one of the most basic ninjutsu, as such most shinobi know how to perform it. This jutsu is purely appearance-based, and does not give a ninja the abilities or jutsu of a person they transform into. Dojutsu can easily pick out this technique, and if the user has transformed into someone larger than themselves, the bits beyond their natural body will have no heat signature. This, and the fact that the chakra of the user wouldn't look normal makes it easier for sensing techniques to pick out transformed people. Costs 5 chakra on activation, and an additional 5 chakra every 2 posts.

Name: Doppelganger Technique (影分身の術 ~ Bunshin no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: E
Type: Supplementary
Element: N/A
Range: Short (0-5m)
Speciality: None
Duration: Clones last 4 posts, or until dissipated.
Cooldown: Six posts after all clones are dispersed.
Description: Using this technique, the user can create up to five intangible clones that appear physically identical to the user. The clone has no physical form, and as such cannot attack. When any object passes through the clone, be it a fist, a rock or a blade, the clone will evaporate. It's mainly used to help mask the user, helping them attack an opponent who is superior at dodging. The clones do not disturb the area around them, don't have shadows or body heat, and as such experienced ninja can easily pick them out. Costs 5 chakra to create clones.

Name: Subtitution Technique (変わり身の術 ~ Kawarimi no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: E
Type: Supplementary
Element: N/A
Range: Clear line of Sight
Speciality: N/A
Duration: Instant
Cooldown: 6 posts
Description: Substitution Technique is an age old skill which enables the user to move at speeds beyond readable perception for a fraction of a moment. Switching with a solid item previously mentioned in the thread in place of themselves, the ninja leaves behind a flickering after-image for a second, which, if damaged releases the chakra which holds it in place in a small smoke cloud, revealing the nature of the technique and the item they have switched with. Though a skilled user's after image for a moment of its flickering lifespan is able to show some of the signs of natural impact as if it were solid, before 'poofing'. The user coming out of the technique creates a similar audio and visual cue with a small cloud of translucent smoke and a 'poofing' sound on appearance. Though as they move at such high speeds it is impossible to co-ordinate a physical attack in any form. Ninja using substitute therefore, while being able to manoeuvre close to an opponent, are unable to set up or follow through with any pre-prepared strike at high speed. (Though it can be used to appear, 'and then' launch an attack, a ninja cannot appear 'in mid strike' as it is impossible to coordinate on such a scale at those speeds.)

Specialty: Bukijutsu (Chakra Flow).
Duration: One post.

Description: The ninja uses their chakra to coat an item, weapon, or armor in their possession with a sheath of energy. This protects the chosen item from interactions with jutsu and allows it to withstand impact from a technique and not break, though it will still offer no protection from damage, other than what it normally would. The chakra cost for this jutsu is dependent on the rank of the item being reinforced.

• D-Rank: Five Chakra.
  
• C-Rank: Five Chakra.

Name: Puppet Technique (Kugutsu no Jutsu ~ 傀儡の術)
Canon/Custom: Canon.
Rank: D.
Type: Supplementary
Element: None.
Range: 50m.
Specialty: Kugutsu.
Duration: -5 per post.
Cooldown: 2 posts.
Description: This jutsu generates long, fibrous, malleable chakra strings from each of the user's fingers. The condensed chakra takes a hue of variable colour depending on the user. Use of this technique on puppets is only allowed by those with the Kugutsu specialty. However, people without skill in Puppetry can still generate chakra strings to control weapons in a flail or even yo-yo fashion within a 20m radius.

Use on humans is restricted to only human puppets in your locker (you cannot control living people). All chakra strings are able to be cut using a jutsu with substantial force (blunt attacks, cutting, piercing) of C-rank or higher. However, the user can expend 15 chakra to reattach the strings however they see fit.

Three types of strings:

Name: Body Flicker Technique (瞬身の術 ~ Shunshin no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Element: None
Range: All
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 1 post
Cooldown: 3 posts
Description: Shunshin no Jutsu is a basic Ninjutsu technique. The ninja will appear and disappear in an instant, allowing them to retreat or attack suddenly. To facilitate the movement, the ninja will often use nearby elements such as mist, sand or leaves to mask their appearance or disappearance. This jutsu cannot be used in combat; only as a way to escape from a fight or thread.

Name: Temporary Paralysis Technique (金縛りの術 ~ Kanashibari no Jutsu)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Element: None
Range: 10 meters
Specialty: Ninjutsu
Duration: 2 posts
Cooldown: 4 posts
Description: Temporary Paralysis Technique is a technique that physically restrains an opponent, as if the opponent had been tied in invisible steel ropes. It debilitates the victim for a short period of time by binding their arms to their torso and chaining their legs together, which allows the user to either strike again, or take the target into custody. This jutsu will only work on people who are below your rank [eg if you're a chuunin it won't work on another chuunin, but it will work on a genin] The user of this technique must state the name of the ability out loud, as well as forming a hand seal. The air around the user will be disturbed as the "chains" move into place, giving the victim a chance to dodge the technique. This technique can be overpowered with raw physical strength. An individual with C rank Taijutsu or A rank Kenjutsu can force themselves free, breaking the ability. This process would take a few seconds, during which time their arms and legs will still be restrained.

Name: Gouhadouken (豪波動拳, Great Surge Fist)
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: D-B
Type: (Offensive
Element: /
Range: D: 5m C: 10m B: 15m
Specialty: Taijutsu | Ninjutsu
Duration: 1 post
Cooldown: Five posts
Description: The basic Gohadoken is a surging punch in which the user's chakra is utilized to focus energy into and through the palms. The user will usually cup thier hands at thier side, focusing the chakra from both hands into a concentrated, visible mass. As the palms are thrust outwards towards the target, a surging energy wave is expelled that results in a punching force traveling through the air in the opponent's direction. This technique can be performed while standing still, running or airborn as well as being able to be fired in any direction.

D: At this ranking, the mass of chakra channeled into the palms is small, roughly the size of a baseball. The chakra is launched at 10 meters per second: at this ranking, the damage caused by this technique is minor: upon impact or reaching the end of its travel range, the ball of chakra explodes outward in a three meter radius, causing first degree tissue damage as well as causing a struck opponent to stagger off balance. The appearance of dark purple bruises at the point of impact are common.

C: At this ranking, the user is able to concentrate more chakra into the technique, causing it to be more powerful than the previous rank. The mass of chakra is now larger, roughly the size of a soccer ball.  Upon being launched, the mass of chakra moves faster than before at approximately 20 meters per second; upon impact with a target, the chakra explodes outwards in a five meter raduis. The force of the explosion is enough to knock a persona off thier feet, as well as causing major second degree tissue damage, up to and including internal bruising of unprotected organs and the cracking of bones.

B: The 'perfected' version of the technique. The user has amassed such a concentrated force of of chakra that it is now as large as a beachball. The technique is now more destructive, able to move at the speed of 40 meters per second for a max range of 15 meters. Once the mass of chakra reaches the end of its trajectory or collides with its target, the detonation is massive; a radius of ten meters. Unprotected flesh will be rendered FUBAR-- Heavily bruised and distorted, but the true power of the attack is what happens internally. The Gohadouken will break bones that it comes into contact with unless they are chakra enhanced; Internal organs can and will be damaged severely if the mass comes into contact with soft tissue, like that of the stomach, as well as sending the target flying (A max of 7 meters).

Name: Iaidō (居合道, lit. Way of Iai)
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: E
Type: Offensive | Defensive | Supplementary
Element: /
Range: /
Specialty: Bukijutsu (Kenjutsu)
Duration: /
Cooldown: Four posts
Description: This jutsu is divided into two abilities, an active and passive. Both abilities relate to one another greatly.
Passive: The term Iaidō (居合道) refers to a specific style of kenjutsu that is concerned with the smooth, controlled movements of drawing the sword from its scabbard, striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade, and then replacing the sword in the scabbard. The linear motion and force applied to draw the sword from the scabbard results in slashes that are faster and stronger than ones executed with the sword already drawn. Practitioners of this technique are, in theory, exceptionally fast shinobi capable of initiating combat in such a manner with this style that many fights will end before they start. Used defensively, Iai is capable of delivering unexpected blocks which in turns allows for hasty counterattacks.
Active: If the user's speed and reflexes are greater than or equal to that of thier opponent, and the opponent is within 10 meters of the user, the user can interupt the casting of a jutsu that requires handseals or a signifigant casting preperation period (Concentration), immediately putting the attempted technique on cooldown by attacking the hands of the opponent. This effect can only be used once per post, and has a cooldown of three posts.
Note: Any ninja with kenjutsu can use the base prinicple of Iaido without this technique (Drawing strikes and the like) but in order for them to perform the jutsu interuption, they must have this technique trained.

Name: False Swipe
Canon/Custom: Custom
Rank: D
Type: Supplementary
Element: None
Range: Close (0-5m)
Specialty: Taijutsu | Bukijutsu
Duration: /
Cooldown: /
Description: After using the Doppelganger Technique to create clones, the users send one of the clones to attack his target. As the clone attacks the target, they are attempting to fool the target into believing that the clone is the real user. As the target is attempting to counter-attack or dodge the clone, the real user will attack the target from a blindspot. Given that the target is attempting to move and keep what they believe to be their opponent in view, the chances of the real user striking the target is very high.

Certain visual doujutsu render this technique useless, such as the Sharingan and Byakugan, because they are able to discern the real user from the clones instantly. In addition, since this technique relies on another and is a simple manuver, it is able to be used multiple times, so long as the user has a clone to perform the technique with.

Name: Cloud-Style Front Beheading {雲流表斬り~ Kumo-Ryū Omotegiri}
Canon/Custom: Canon
Rank: D
Type: Offensive
Element: n/a
Range: Short (Sword slash)
Specialty: Bukijutsu
Duration: Instantaneous
Cooldown: 3 posts
Description: The user swings their sword in a single quick and powerful cutting motion to attack an enemy in front of them. The speed and subsequent force with which this kenjutsu technique is performed allows the user to overpower basic bukijutsu strikes that would clash with this technique, either disarming the opponent (if the user's rank and bukijutsu rank exceed theirs) or creating a momentary window where the opposing weapon will be knocked out of position and be unable to be used to defend a follow-up strike.
