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 clan members shadow reaches the target shadow, it will attach itself. While attached the target will be frozen, only able to replicate in mirror form the actions of the clan member.

RP SAMPLE: Shibito knew that Cyrus would not back off with the victory, he had hoped he would but knew it was not to be. He watched, barely concious as Cyrus walked up and kicked him in the stomach, Shibito winced as his stomach cracked under the pressure of the kicks, he hated this guy so much, he was a bad winner and a horrible person, what kind of person tries to kill someone in a competition in front of many people? Shibito watched as Cyrus put his hands ready to shoot airwaves at him and end his life after Cyrus said that he warned Shibito that he would kill him and that he was pathetic, Shibito looked up and said "I don't care what you do."
Shibito then heard Cyrus say that he would make sure Shibito would never return to embarass anyone else, Shibito thought to himself 'Have I ever embarassed someone? Am I a failure? I can't be, can I?'
Shibito was fairly relieved to se the proctor jump down and get Cyrus off him, he knew Cyrus would not try anything with that guy unless he wanted to die. He saw Cyrus walk off and sighed and then got nervous. He couldnot here much apart from some sounds that were not understandable to him, he could barely see anymore, he seemed to be being lifted up the proctor and taken away, he closed his eyes and was thinking to himself 'Where did I go wrong? I thought I handled myself fine, but I just could not touch the guy' He then slipped into unconciousness as he was taken away to be repaired.

HISTORY:
Pre academy arc: Karamu was born 12 years ago in the hidden leaf village. He was brought up by his parents and spent a very easy childhood. At the age of 4, Karamu had learnt how to use his shadow jutsu and enjoyed playing with the shadows. He had made friends and was known for being friendly if a little lazy. He preferred laying about to most other stuff. By the age of 6, his parents took him to get mental help for being so unenthusiastic, the people could not get through to him and decided that it was who he was and he may change as he grows up. His parents did find out that he would train in the skills he had and he would do that with full energy and this made them happy, they finally found out he did something. He went to the Academy at the age of 7.

Academy arc: Karamu spent a while at the academy and did well, kind of. He was not the most enthusiastic of people, he knew and so did everyone else after a while. He would do exams to make sure he could become a ninja but in normal lessons he would nap or daydream, he managed to take in a lot of information despite this and he always suprised by doing well in the exams. In the final exam to let him advance to genin, he showed that he could create clones, change his appearence and substituted with a log. In the written exam, he got less marks because he fell asleep halfway through the exam but the half he did was all right giving him a full marks in the practical and half marks in the written, equaling a pass. He was given his headband and announced to be a genin, he was 10 at the time.

Genin arc so far: Karamu is now 12 and has spent 2 years training his skills up, he knew he was lacking in techniques so he began to learn new jutsu and his elemental affinity. He is currently awaiting a team, he has managed to avoid one for so far but realises that he will get nowhere without a squad, he does want to become more powerful and he can't do it by himnself. This is Karamu's story so far.
