Kekkei Genkai

Name: Shadow Imitation Technique
Field: Hiden, Ninjutsu.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: 9m.
Description: Please give at least a five sentence description of this Kekkei Genkai.
Perquisites: The downside of the Shadow Imitation is that it is tiring to use repeatedly; it's been noted that the ability is subject to some form of diminishing return and decreases in potency after repeated use. If the user is low on chakra, the performance rate of the technique also deteriorates. Insufficient lighting will make the technique less effective. A particularly strong opponent can also resist the shadow's forced imitation. Lasts for a maximum of one post (D) three posts (C), five posts (B), seven posts (S). Duration is decreased by one for every other opponent caught in it. Cooldown of five posts. Requires the Rat Hand Seal to initiate this Kekkei Genkai.
Chakra Cost: 10 (D-rank), 15 (C-rank), 20 (B-rank), 25 (A-rank), 30 (S-rank.

Jutsu

Technique: Shadow Sewing Technique
Field: Hiden, Ninjutsu.
Type: None.
Rank: B-rank.
Class: Offensive, Supplementary.
Range: 6m.
Hand Seals: Rat → Bird
Duration: None.
Cooldown: Five posts.
Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 10.
Description: This technique is usually used to go through the target and capture them, but depending on the opponent, it can also be used as an attack to bring them down. This special characteristic finds its greatest effect when used as logistical support. After this technique hits someone, it can then be directly transformed back into the Shadow Imitation Technique.


Technique: Shadow Imitation Shuriken Technique
Field: Hiden, Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow, Shurikenjutsu.
Type: None.
Rank: C-rank.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: 15m.
Hand Seals: None.
Duration: Two posts.
Cooldown: Four posts.
Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 15.
Description: By infusing the blades with the user's own chakra beforehand, they are given the effect of his/her shadow techniques. By using these weapons to pierce the enemies' shadows, they are paralyzed in place. To pierce the shadow, it is necessary to avoid the target just barely. Since it is more difficult for the enemy to notice it, this ninjutsu compensates for the weak point of the similar Shadow Imitation Technique, being its limited effective range.


Technique: Shadow Gathering Technique
Field: Hiden, Ninjutsu.
Type: None.
Rank: B-rank.
Class: Supplementary.
Range: 6m.
Hand Seals: None.
Duration: None.
Cooldown: Four posts.
Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 20.
Description: This is a ninjutsu using materialized 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.

Technique: Shadow–Neck Binding Technique
Field: Hiden, Ninjutsu.
Type: None.
Rank: B-rank.
Class: Offensive.
Range: 4m.
Hand Seals: Dragon → Tiger → Rat
Duration: Two posts.
Cooldown: Four posts.
Drawbacks: None.
Chakra Cost: 20.
Description: A technique developed from the Nara clan's hiden Shadow Imitation Technique with combat in mind. It is possible to inflict direct damage to the enemy by transforming and moving shadows endowed with physical power. It is possible to attack body parts like fingers and such by turning the shadow slender and to bind the opponent's body in order to restrain them. It was given its name because, above all else, strangulation is the most efficient method. The smaller the distance to the target, the greater the power of the shadow. This technique cannot be used for an extended period of time, as it weakens with each passing minute.
