Personality:

Kazumaru is someone who likes to skip training, in favor of walking around the village, or participating in games, or activities, with the few friends that he has. Kazumaru Trains often, but is not a large priority. Getting stronger isnt what Kazumaru thinks life is all about. He only does what he wants, when he wants, and how he wants to, and in a way, is a born leader. A very intellegent individual, who never ceases to amaze people with his tactical prowess.

Appearance:

Kazumaru is tall, and a little bit lanky, with straight white hair that is down to his ears... long, but not too long. He has a strong build, but his frame is a little bit wirey, and his muscles are long, rather than bulging. He wears A black and Red sweat shirt that contrasts with his white hair which is unusual for a Nara. He also he wears Black Jeans. his "forehead protector" is worn on his upper right arm, instead of his forehead. He also has light blue eyes that only get brighter when he's happy, but begin to turn to the color of the sea when angry. He has a normal white skin tone, and is the slightest bit pale.

Learned three times,
Kagemane no Jutsu, 影真似の術 (Shadow Imitation Technique)
Rank: "C", "B", "A" Rank
Skill: NinJutsu
Effect: The signature move of the Nara family, this jutsu allows the user to control their own shadow and merge it with their opponent's shadow, combining them. This links the movements of the user with the target; the target is subsequently forced to make any movement the user makes. It is an extremely versatile technique, as the user can contract and change the shape of their shadow, potentially grabbing multiple targets at once. The degree to which the user's shadow can be stretched is limited by its total surface area.
Special: "Hanseals"
Drawback: Must Be Learned Multiple times in order to truly achieve something grand. Must hold Rat hand seal until the technique connects with the targets shadow.
Description: Using the shadows of other objects, the user can extend their shadow beyond its normal range. The amount of time for which an opponent can be held is limited by the user's chakra, since the user must constantly maintain the jutsu. The jutsu is also more difficult to maintain at greater ranges or for multiple opponents, since the user's shadow must be stretched constantly. At closer ranges, it requires considerably less effort on the user's part. Additionally, the target can force their way free with enough effort, though the amount of effort required to do so is considerable. There are two tables or understandings for this technique that consists of the Difficulty class of the User as well as the Opponent, and as to how far the user is capable of using this technique. When first learned the user is only capable of using this technique at a distance of Ten meters. Each higher Rank archived, the user is capable of extending the shadow another five meters. The user must first however, learn each rank a certain amount of times before then next rank is obtainable. The C rank version must be learned five times total. At which point the ditance is upgraded to "B" Rank training and now extends ten meters each time trained. This version must be learned 3 times total. The "A" Rank version, extends the range to Seventy meters, and every additional "A" Rank training extends it another ten meters. This technique caps out at 100 meters. The user is capable of making their shadow split and by doing so takes up the distance of the total form of the original technique. This means that if a user has this technique to where they can use thirty meters and wishes to make this technique split to three shadows the maximum distance is ten meters per shadow.

Difficulty on Escaping: Escaping the Kagemane is a tricky art for some, easier for others. Depending on your Stamina and Difficulty class depends on how well the opponent can escape the Kagemane. The Kagemane is held for a Certain time frame depending on Rank of the technique learned. "C" Rank can be held for 18 seconds before it breaks no matter what. "B" Rank 36 seconds, "A" Rank 54 Seconds. For every difficulty class the user is above the opponent, add another five seconds. If the opponent for every difficulty class above th user, subtract five seconds. If the Opponent captured is a Taimaster, subtract 15 seconds additionally. If the opponent is a Tai specialist, subtract 5 additional seconds. If the opponent is a Taijutsu No specialist, leave it as is. After doing the math, the amount of turns held will be apparent.

[/blockquote]History:

Kazumaru Nara is of the Nara clan. He is told by his Gaurdians, that as a baby, he was apparently dropped down the river in a basket, with the name, "Nara" written on one side. For how long he had traveled was unknown, but it is beleived that he was sent down the river by the Nara clan in The Village Hidden In The Leaves. Kazumaru grew up with the natural ability to manipulate shadows slightly. On one of these first accounts, Kazumaru informed his caretakers that a shadow had begun to mimic him. Years later, he began to developed his Kagemane no Jutsu (Shadow Imitation Technique) by himself. His instructors imidiately began to recognize his ability to manipulate his shadow. His entire childhood was lonely, until he met his only friend, named Ananta Shesha. Kazumaru was delighted to have at least one friend that he would do anything for. In the recent years, Kazumaru has only trained because he absolutely needed to. The other villages' ninja outnumbered his, and he needed to become stronger, or he would never survive as a ninja.
