The Nara Clan  The Clan HistoryThe Nara Clan (奈良一族, Nara Ichizoku) or Nara Family (奈良家, Nara-ke) is one of the many clans of Konohagakure. They are known for tending deer and their ability to manipulate shadows through the use of Yin Release (a form of Non-Elemental Ninjutsu). Two of its members, Shikaku and his son Shikamaru, are well known for their high-level of intelligence, and both have served as advisors to the Hokage. Many Nara after them have become advisors or assistants to future Hokage, for their brilliance is unparalleled. Were it not for their innate laziness, the Nara would make the best Hokage themselves. Their Shadow Jutsu are tricky, and the most effective means of halting an opponent entirely. Only raw strength is capable of overpowering their Jutsu once you're caught in it. They are not to be messed with. Nara Clan Perks
Since this is not a Kekkei Genkai but rather a Hiden Clan, they do not lose the skill point clans like the Uchiha and Senju do. The downside to this perk however is that their Jutsu can be copied and stolen if they're not careful (unlike a Kekkei Genkai). However they retain the skill point a Non-Clan guy would have, AND they gain access to unique Ninjutsu exclusive to the Nara Clan. There are limited spots however.Nara Clan JutsuWIP |

Clan Jutsu Name: Shadow Possession Jutsu Rank: C Rank Complexity (C-S Cost Pending Stage) Classification: Ninjutsu, Non-Elemental, Nara Hiden Type: Projectile/Supplementary Range: 15m (Normal Conditions/Mornings); 25m (Afternoons); 35m (Evenings); 0m (in Darkness or at Night without the moon) Hand-Seals: Rat
Description: The user manipulates their shadow across a surface to merge it with a target or targets' shadow. The user can stretch their shadow however they wish in order to accomplish this goal, but they are limited by their shadow's surface area; if a target can move far enough away from the Shadow Imitation's user, they are theoretically safe from it. But there are ways around this: the user's shadow can freely move within other shadows, extending its range.
Once a user merges their shadow with a target's, the target cannot move on their own other than to talk. The only movements they are able to make are those that the user makes: if the user walks forward, the target walks forward; if the user raises their right hand, the target raises their right hand. Nara tend to wear their shuriken holsters in atypical locations so that, when they reach for and throw shuriken, their targets will reach for and throw nothing. Although most often used against opponents, the Shadow Imitation Technique can be used to save allies, freezing them in physically impossible positions so that they won't trigger booby traps or causing them to cling to sheer surfaces with no means of support. At times, the Shadow Imitation's mimicry is two-way, as if a third-party forces the target to make a move, the user will be forced to make the same move.
Flash Bombs double the range of this jutsu for 1 post. If an object casts a shadow, then it's shadow can be added onto the limit of the range. You need to provide an OOC explanation in your post for why your shadow can extend its reach. Some source of light off of something casting a shadow for you to extend your reach with is key. If you're not sure whether you can extend your shadow, ask a Staff member).
Stage 1: C rank Cost per Post Used. The Shadow Possession Jutsu moves at a C rank speed. 100 EXP Cost Required.
Stage 2: B Rank Cost per Post Used. Jutsu moves at a B Rank Speed. 100 EXP Cost Required.
Stage 3: A rank Cost per Post Used. Jutsu moves at an A Rank Speed. 200 EXP Cost Required
Stage 4: S rank Cost per Post Used. Jutsu moves at an S Rank Speed. 200 EXP Cost Required.
Drawbacks: Stage 1 Shadows can be overpowered if the person has C rank Strength. Stage 2 can be overpowered by B rank Strength. Stage 3 by A rank. Stage 4 by S rank. The Jutsu is quite expensive in chakra cost. As mentioned before cannot be used in darkness. User cannot move while they are focusing on this jutsu, as it requires a lot of mental focus. Jutsu can only be used for 5 posts at a time, even if the user has chakra to keep it going longer.
Name: Shadow Strangle Jutsu Rank: B Rank Classification:Ninjutsu, Non-Elemental, Nara Hiden Type: Supplementary Range: Same as Shadow Possession Hand-Seals: Dragon → Tiger → Rat
Description:This is a variation of the Shadow Imitation Technique, designed for offensive purposes. The user extends their shadow along a target's body, which, because the shadow has physical properties, the target can feel. There, the shadow can be used for restraint, replacing or adding to the binding of the Shadow Imitation. The closer the user is to their target, the stronger this binding becomes. Like the Shadow Imitation, the Shadow–Neck Binding requires a great deal of chakra to maintain, making it weaker over extended periods of time. For this reason, it is most effective when immediately used to strangle a target, hence the name.
The Shadow–Neck Binding's ability to apply pressure to a body gives the user some additional options. If the user falls victim to a genjutsu, they can use their shadow to break their own finger, freeing themselves from the genjutsu's influence.
Used after the Shadow Possession Jutsu lands. By adding a C or B rank to the cost of whatever upkeep the user is paying, they can deal either a C or B rank of damage per post in strangulation.
Drawbacks: Requires the 2nd Level of the Shadow Possession Jutsu to learn. Requires the Shadow Possession Jutsu to have landed on an opponent. If the person has B rank Strength or higher, they can resist this jutsu. Freeing oneself from Genjutsu requires taking a B rank amount of damage. To inflict a B rank of Damage to the target per post, you have to be within melee range (while the C rank version can be used remotely). Can only be used during the duration of a Shadow Possession, which is 5 posts maximum.
Name: Shadow Stitching Jutsu
Rank: A Rank Classification: Ninjutsu, Non-Elemental, Nara Hiden Type: Projectile Range: Same as Shadow Possession Jutsu Hand-Seals: Rat -> Bird
Description: This is a ninjutsu from among the Nara clan's secret techniques that uses materialized shadows to attack and bind, instead of merely immobilizing and controlling like the Shadow Imitation Technique. The user changes the shape of their shadow into several sharp needles and controls each separately. They can then attack several targets simultaneously and at the same time snatch away their ability to move by sewing them stuck with the shadow threads. Because it is a physical attack, it is impossible to capture someone without harming them, but on the other hand, since the speed of invocation and the time of duration are excellent, it can be used when urgent restraint is required.
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.
Can be used as an A-Rank Speed/Power Ranged Attack, or like the Shadow Strangle just an A rank Cost added onto an already connected Shadow Possession Jutsu (dealing A rank damage to the opponent). If it's the former, you can choose to upkeep the attack and treat it as an A rank Shadow Paralysis (basically Possession without the whole movement).
Drawbacks: Requires the 3rd level of the Shadow Possession Jutsu learned. Can't move while the jutsu is used.
Name: Shadow Possession Shuriken-Jutsu Rank: A Classification:Ninjutsu, Non-Elemental, Bukijutsu, Nara Hiden Type:Supplementary Range: Projectile Hand-Seals:Charge (1)
Description:
By infusing chakra blades with their own chakra beforehand, they are given the effect of Nara 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 — Shikamaru added fake explosive tags when he used them against Kakuzu and Hidan to help with that. 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. It is unknown for how long this jutsu can keep its targets paralyzed, however it can be disrupted simply by the removal of the blade or by the disappearance of the opponent's shadow.
Buffs a Projectile Weapon with the ability to pierce a person's shadow, disabling them with A rank Strength if the Jutsu lands.
Drawbacks: Requires the 2nd Level of the Shadow Possession Jutsu to be learned. Requires a Chakra Blade to use (see Shop for more information). If the jutsu misses then the jutsu is wasted and the user's chakra dissipates.
Name: Shadow Pull Jutsu Rank: D Rank Complexity (D-C Cost) Classification: Ninjutsu, Non-Elemental, Nara Hiden Type: Supplementary Range: 2m Hand-Seals: Closing of the Fist
Description: Can use Shadows to grab objects and pull them toward the user with D or C rank strength, or throw them with D/C strength.
Drawbacks:Requires Shadow Stitching Jutsu. |
