Clan name
Name: NaraFounder: Lost to History
Location: Originally the clan came from Konohagakure but after the collapse of the major villages it isn't strange to find clan members spread across the continent.
History: The 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 their tending of deer, such as Rikumaru, and their ability to manipulate shadows through the use of Yin Release. Nara clan members are well known for their high-level intellects and served as advisors to the Leader Figures.
During the war that caused mankind to divide and hide, the Nara family have spread across the family. There is no dominant figure that dictates who leads the family. Having become seperated and Nuclear, there seems to be a head for each Nara family sitauted in a village.

Name of the Hidan Ability: Shadow Binding
Bloodline Name: Narake
Clan Ability: Shadow Manipulation.
Description: The ability of the clan is the manipulation of their own shadow to bind and restrict their targets. However more experienced and stronger shinobi have been shown to manipulate shadows of other objects once they have gotten control over it. Their manipulation of shadows extends to those they have bound, relying on jutsu strength to control the user's movements.
The strength of the jutsu style comes in its versatility, being able to bend and change shapes to suit its user and the given environment. The ability to "Extend" their reach through means of other shadows is a strength that any smart Nara uses. Hence their jutsu behaves slightly differently from normal. Where it's range can easily be extended or cut short due the actual shadow determining it. On basis, the range will have a maximum from 1 to 30 meters. However the more it stretches the more power the jutsu will lose. 1 meter = 1 stat 10 meters means 10 loss in power.
However its weakness as the same time is its shadowy nature. Light sources prove a weakness for this clan, flash bombs and other sources of light seem to take control away. For example the sun and its position, can grant favor but also negatively impact the clansmen's Jutsu. It's other weakness is that the binding needs to be maintained in some manner or form. This means that the binding losing power gradually as the user's chakra get used up.
Grip Duration. Per 100 Power of the jutsu the max duration of the jutsu is set at 1 Post. This means once caught the Jutsu cannot be broken by physical or chakra means. A Power of 200 means that jutsu max duration is set a 2 posts. However per post the Jutsu does not connect with the intended target, it loses power by 20 per post. Meaning by the time it connects, the Jutsu's power might not even be powerful enough to grip the opponent fully. This will be a general application for binding techniques in the Narake clan. There are other cases that use the traditional Power vs Strength. Neck Binding for Example will follow the Strength vs Power. Any variations will be specified in the Jutsu.
