By tagging the user's shadow with the kanji of Tartarus (タルタロス), it becomes possible to utilize the user's shadow as the medium/vessel of techniques that employ their usage, enabling a more unique approach to their usage that eliminates the need of scroll/tags/objects. Two approaches exist for Tartarus depending on the nature of the original technique. For techniques that are inherently offensive/defensive in nature and deal with the release/unsealing of objects from them, such as the Manipulated Tools/Ink Release set of techniques, they become usable through the user's shadow with an additional cost of ten chakra, subverting the need to carry multiple scrolls or tags. This usage would be passive after the placement of the seal, only costing five additional chakra to the utilize the desired technique, with the user being restricted to two pre-mentioned techniques per usage of Tartarus and said techniques themselves naturally taking a move slot when used. While applicable to techniques such as Fire Release: Exploding Dragon Strike, usage on techniques that are naturally harmful to shadows through light would logically result in the removal of the seal, canceling further use of the technique. As for techniques that don't release and rather uses objects to seal or restrict, such as the case with elemental sealing method or sealing tag, these would constitute an active usage of Tatarus wherein the user would manipulate his shadow to form a replica of the scroll/tag and utilize it through his shadow, costing ten additional chakra to the technique, with the user being restricted to two techniques replicated per usage. While Tartarus serves as an independent technique after it's kanji is placed, the user can also utilize it's effects in the same timeframe of performing other shadow manipulation techniques, costing ten chakra to the cost of the shadow technique, in addition to ten to the technique being replicated. Usable thrice and must be separated by two turn intervals. Scroll/Kanji techniques that deal with releasing objects/techniques must be mentioned in bio, first post, or upon using the technique the first time in battle(if the user has the original scroll/tags/objects). This can only be used with techniques that require sealing tags, scrolls, and physical objects(kunais, swords etc), with the user's shadow becoming the replacement. If the users shadows are completely destroyed or momentarily extinguished (high level lights), the pre-stored techniques would be destroyed as well. Notably, for Fūinjutsu techniques, they can only be chained with B rank or lower Nara clan techniques, or alternatively only B rank or lower Fūinjutsu can be applied for higher ranked Nara technique usages.

By adding a unique seal, Store (格納), to the user's shadow, these abilities are bolstered, allowing the user to store/rerelease techniques into/from the shadow in a similar fashion. Techniques that would be stored in the shadow must be of equivalent size or smaller than the shadow itself, and it must be a physical technique. Techniques 1-2X larger than the shadow get reduced by 20 points, and techs 2-3X larger get reduced by 10 points, due to the partial 'absorption' of force/momentum. The portion of the opposing technique's initial contact with the shadow is what determines it's size, and length is generally insignificant. For techniques that are wider in one portion that the other, they would follow the previously stated deduction aspect. Into the Light can be applied in the same t/f of another shadow technique, and each shadow this is applied to can only absorb up to two opposing techniques, without having them destroy eachother in the shadow. Techniques within the shadow can not be manipulated or sensed by opponents, and they would be in a form of stasis that preserves them as they were absorbed. If the shadow used for storage was destroyed (or the shadow technique expires/ends), the techniques would be released back, with the user having a mental control on the release's direction. In cases where the user is incapable of making such a decision for one reason or another, it would always be angled away from the user towards the nearest foreign chakra source. It should be noted that when techniques are released, that the opponents can control them if possible (Depends on the technique the used), although for most cases, such as projectiles and similar, they lose the ability to do so. The user can apply this to his shadow beforehand, allowing the next shadow technique to carry the aforementioned abilities. (Must be posted in first post or in bio) Into the Light can be used thrice per battle with a two turn cooldown in between usages, costing an additional ten chakra points to maintain per turn, otherwise the techniques stored would be released.

The story can range from a simple manipulation that covers a few centimeters to a grand, up to scale, extravagant showing. The user's imagination is the only limit. The technique can last 5 turns due to it being inherently harmless and easy to use. It costs 5 chakra points per turn to sustain, with a turn interval required between uses.

Should the user feel the need to, their shadows would be manipulated to affect their own movement, either stopping or altering it, or a combination of both. This would only be a momentary feat, but it would serve well for dire situations that require immediate actions that the user would be otherwise incapable of doing on his own, such as abruptly stopping. User's can manipulate/paralyse their entire body or specific regions/limbs up to their own discretion, with redirecting/movement never exceeding 1.5 meters. For those who specialize in Nara arts Mischief of Ate is treated similar to walking on water skill, as in a passive skill, while for those who do not, it would count as a technique, albeit one that can be performed in conjunction with other techniques.

Description: Shadow users have shown the ability to increase the strength of their shadows to steel like strength for some techniques. Hadodaku builds on that ability. It allows the user to increase the strength of his shadows to steel like quality. The user would perform an additional hand seal after using a shadow technique and give the shadow steel like qualities thus increasing its strength. The change happens in the same timeframe of using the original shadow technique. -The steel like quality lasts the duration of the original shadow technique, with each turn after the initial use having a -15 chakra cost. -Usable 4 times per battle.

Each half could extend to mid range distance. The halves shape could be altered to the user's liking. For example, one half would be a fist while the second would be a dagger. One half can hold down the target and the other would stab said target. The halves can each reach 5 meters size if deemed necessary. Similar to other shadow art techniques the halves can rise upwards. As such, the user can use them as means to gain elevation for example. Lastly, the strength of the shadows is similar to that of steel. -Usable 3 times. -Shadow techniques can be performed through the halves Taught: [URL]https://animebase.me/threads/starter-pack.792482/#post-22156868[/URL] [/JUTSU][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
