Nara Jin is purchasing:

 

Shadow Slinger | Kage no Toushu

Spoiler

Type: Bow

Size: Medium
Level: 1 (
円20)
Attributes:  Ninjutsu Forged (
300) | Chakra Blade  (50) | Unique (50)


Special Abilities: 

 

Latent Shadow Integration | Senzaitekida Kage no Tougou

Effect: Each time an attack is made with this weapon, the user rolls one d12. The result determines which of the following occurs:

1-5: No additional effects occur

6-9The user may pay an additional 35 Chakra when making this attack. If they do, an opponent hit by the first strike of the Attack will suffer the status effect "Slow" for one turn. 

10-12: The user may pay an additional 40 Chakra when making this attack. If they do, an opponent hit by the first strike of the Attack will suffer the status effect "Exhausted" for one turn. 

Description:  The Nara's close relation the the deer of their Deep Forest has led to a natural innate connection; shadows manipulated by Nara clan chakra gravitate towards the powerful properties of the deers' antlers. This can be taken advantage of by wrapping a thread of shadow along the bowstring and onto the arrow. This shadow thread is sent along the arrow's flight path. Once it strikes the enemy, the shadow spreads along their body and chakra points, causing them to be burdened with the user's Kage chakra. 

Cost: 円200

 

Marked by Shadows | Kage de Matowoshibotta

Effect: Every time an opponent is hit with a successful attack from this bow, the user gains one stack of "Shadow Marking". Twice per battle, as a Free Action in the Set-Up Phase, the user may sacrifice any number of "Shadow Marking" stacks to increase the chance to hit of any [Hijutsu; Nara] used in the main phase of that turn by (y/10)% per stack, where y = the level of this weapon.

Description: Nara shinobi are known for their tactical minds and their use of deception. They have learned to take advantage of opponents' failures to attend to all aspects of the environment, no matter how small. In this case, the thread of shadow cast by an arrow in flight is used to connect the Nara user's shadow to their opponent, effectively setting up their infamous Kage no Jutsu. 

Cost: 400

 

Description: It has long been a custom of the Nara clan deer herders to use the spoils of their cultivation to better allow them to complete their work. Just as the Kagemane was developed to help the deer herders farm antlers without disturbing their skittish brethren, bows constructed from the antlers were used as a tool to herd, capture, and protect. For decades, the Nara used their horn bows and shadow manipulation skills as separate but necessary tools in herding deer. Over time, a rare few of these bows, apparently made from the antlers of deer with highly potent chakra, exhibited an attraction to the Nara's shadows. Those who were particularly adept in shadow manipulation and who had a very keen chakra eventually developed techniques to take advantage of the special horn bows connection to the kagemane. The bows were used to direct shinobi's kage and the kage used to give power to the bow or to direct its projectiles.

While some Nara shinobi had advocated for these antler bows usefulness as offensive weapons-especially supporters of the famous Nara Shikamaru- the clan elders decided to keep their existence hidden during times of war, for fear their enemies might steal them and learn the secrets of shadow manipulation. As strife increased and more clan members were forced to leave the life of herding to join the life of the shinobi, the majority of these bows were either destroyed or lost to time.

But, one of these bows, which some say is the oldest and most connected to the shadows, remains. This powerful double bow, known througout Nara lore as The Shadow Slinger, was cradted from the matching antlers of three deer who are believed to have descended from the great Koudaikou himself. Legend has it that the bow's last owner was Cenarus whose skill with the weapon was part of what impressed Koudaikou enough to become a willing summon. Currently, the Shadow Slinger is hidden away somewhere in the Nara clan forest. While many have tried to locate and wield it, no one has proved the elusive bow's master. The bow's innate chakra appears to be highly discerning, as it has not allowed any shinobi's shadow to join with it in as long as anyone alive can remember.
