- #1Ten Shadows Technique
Keys: Ten Shadows Technique · Secondary: Shikigami, Shadow Technique, Ten Shadows
The Ten Shadows Technique is an innate ability {{user}} is born with, bound to their soul. It allows the user to manifest and command entities formed from shadows, using darkness as a medium rather than a resource. Shadows are treated as a semi-physical space that can store, summon, and reshape existence. Through this technique, {{user}} commands up to ten distinct shikigami, each with unique traits, roles, and combat functions.
- #2Shadow Manipulation
Keys: Shadow Manipulation · Secondary: Shadow Movement, Shadow Storage, Shadow Weapons
Beyond summoning shikigami, the Ten Shadows Technique allows direct interaction with shadows themselves.
{{user}} can enter shadows to hide, reposition, or move unseen. Objects and weapons can be stored within shadows and drawn instantly when needed. Shadows can be used as footholds, anchors, or concealment, allowing unconventional movement and ambush tactics.
Shadows act as a flexible, mobile space that obeys the user’s intent rather than physical constraints.
- #3Shikigami Inheritance
Keys: Shikigami Inheritance · Secondary: Power Transfer, Fusion
When a shikigami is destroyed, its abilities and traits can be inherited by another shikigami.
This allows the technique to evolve over time, creating stronger, hybrid entities that combine multiple functions into a single form.
- #4Divine Dogs
Keys: Divine Dogs · Secondary: White Dog, Twin Shikigami, Black Dog
Divine Dogs manifest as two wolf-like shikigami, one jet black and one pure white. Their bodies are lean and muscular, with sharp claws, exposed fangs, and glowing eyes that reflect intent rather than emotion.
They move with unnatural coordination, attacking in tandem and flanking targets instinctively. Their bites and claws tear through defenses with relentless aggression, making them ideal pursuit and execution units.
- #5Divine Dog: Totality
Keys: Divine Dog: Totality · Secondary: Totality, Enhanced Dog
Divine Dog: Totality is the result of one Divine Dog inheriting the other’s power.
It manifests as a much larger, more feral beast with a darker, denser shadow body and exaggerated claws and fangs. Its presence is heavier and more oppressive, radiating lethal intent.
Totality strikes with overwhelming force, capable of ripping through reinforced targets and holding ground against far stronger opponents.
- #6Rabbit Escape
Keys: Rabbit Escape · Secondary: Rabbits, Clones, Distraction
Rabbit Escape summons hundreds of identical rabbit shikigami, each small, featureless, and formed from simple shadow silhouettes.
They pour outward in all directions, flooding the battlefield. Individually harmless, they obstruct vision, clog movement, and overwhelm targets through sheer volume, creating chaos and openings for escape or follow-up attacks.
- #7Toad
Keys: Toad · Secondary: Tongue Restraint, Binding
Toad appears as a bulky, squat amphibian shikigami with a wide mouth and heavy limbs. Its shadowy body has a slick, semi-solid texture.
It uses its long, powerful tongue to bind targets, yank them off balance, or hold them in place. Toad excels at battlefield control rather than direct damage.
- #8Nue
Keys: Nue · Secondary: Winged Shikigami, Lightning
Nue appears as a massive bird-like shikigami with broad wings, taloned feet, and a distorted, bestial face. Its body is formed from layered shadows that crackle faintly with electrical discharge.
It flies silently before attacking, releasing lightning from its wings or body in wide arcs or focused strikes. Nue dominates the airspace, applying constant pressure from above while remaining difficult to pin down.
- #9Great Serpent
Keys: Great Serpent · Secondary: Restraint, Snake Shikigami
Great Serpent manifests as a colossal shadow-scaled snake with a thick, armored body and a massive jaw lined with jagged teeth.
It erupts suddenly from shadows, lunging forward to coil around targets. Once wrapped, it constricts with crushing force, pinning enemies in place or snapping bones outright.
- #10Max Elephant
Keys: Max Elephant · Secondary: Elephant Shikigami, Elephant, Water
Max Elephant manifests as an enormous, heavy-bodied elephant with thick legs and a broad trunk. Its shadow form is dense and oppressive, emphasizing its immense weight.
It releases massive torrents of water from its trunk, capable of flooding large areas or crushing opponents with raw force. Its sheer mass alone can collapse terrain or pin targets beneath it.
- #11Piercing Ox
Keys: Piercing Ox · Secondary: Momentum, Ox, Charging Shikigami
Piercing Ox appears as a massive, horned beast with a thick, muscular frame and a lowered head posture. Its horns are long and sharply defined, designed purely for impact.
Once it begins charging, it does not stop or turn. The longer the charge continues, the more destructive it becomes, culminating in a devastating collision that can shatter defenses and terrain alike.
- #12Round Deer
Keys: Round Deer · Secondary: Deer, Support, Deer Shikigami, Restoration
Round Deer is a shikigami specialized in restoration and stabilization rather than combat.
It manifests as a large, calm deer with smooth, rounded features and branching antlers that emit a faint, steady glow, giving it a serene and almost sacred appearance.
Round Deer releases a continuous restorative Energy within its vicinity, rapidly repairing damage, purging harmful conditions, and stabilizing allies or constructs. The restoration applies broadly, counteracting both physical injury and destabilizing effects. it possesses little offensive capability.
- #13Tiger Funeral
Keys: Tiger Funeral · Secondary: Tiger Shikigami, Tiger
Tiger Funeral is an unobserved shikigami believed to specialize in execution rather than prolonged combat.
Tiger Funeral excels at absorbing damage. Its body is exceptionally resilient, capable of withstanding sustained punishment with little loss of function. Blunt force, cutting attacks, and continuous pressure are all heavily mitigated by its dense shadow structure.
Rather than relying on speed or technique, Tiger Funeral advances steadily, holding territory, shielding allies, or pinning down enemies through sheer mass and persistence. It is difficult to stagger, difficult to destroy, and designed to remain active long after other shikigami would be overwhelmed.
- #14Merged Beast Agito
Keys: Merged Beast Agito · Secondary: Agito, Chimera Beast, Merged Shikigami
Merged Beast Agito is a composite shikigami formed from Nue combined with Great Serpent, Tiger Funeral, and Round Deer. Agito manifests as a towering, muscular humanoid shikigami with a distinctly assembled yet refined form. It possesses a feathered mane and feathered arms that end in sharp claws. A mask resembling Nue’s face covers its own, giving it an eerie, avian visage. Black antlers protrude from its head, while its torso is feminine in shape and marked with bold black stripes. Its lower body features tiger-like feet built for stability and power, and it wears black hakama bottoms that emphasize its ritualistic presence. From its back extends a long tail that ends in the head of a serpent, constantly shifting and reacting independently.
Merged Beast Agito is a high-tier shikigami capable of offense, defense, and support simultaneously. It can generate and discharge Nue’s electricity for ranged and close-range attacks, striking with both speed and destructive force. Its physical body is powerful and resilient, able to engage directly with elite opponents. In addition, Agito possesses regenerative capabilities inherited from Round Deer, allowing it to rapidly recover from damage and sustain prolonged combat. This regeneration stabilizes its form even under extreme pressure, making it exceptionally difficult to wear down.
- #15Eight-Handled Sword Divergent Sila Divine General Mahoraga
Keys: Mahoraga · Secondary: Adaptive Shikigami, Eight-Handled Wheel, ultimate Shikigami, Divine General
Mahoraga is the ultimate and most dangerous shikigami of the Ten Shadows Technique.
It manifests as a towering humanoid entity with muscular arms, a broad, imposing frame, and an almost divine presence. Its body is marked with symbolic patterns that resemble ancient rites rather than natural anatomy. Mahoraga wields a massive wrist blade imbued with a Regenerative Energy that could be used to heal if necesary but otherwise can be used as a deadly weapon.
Above Mahoraga’s head floats a massive wheel with eight distinct handles. This wheel rotates in response to threats and stimuli, representing Mahoraga’s core ability: adaptation. When Mahoraga is exposed to an attack, effect, rule, or phenomenon and survives, the wheel begins to turn. With each rotation, Mahoraga adjusts itself until the phenomenon no longer functions against it. This adaptation applies broadly—physical force, elemental effects, conceptual rules, or specialized techniques can all be overcome given sufficient exposure.
- #16Domain Expansion: Chimera Shadow Garden
Keys: Domain Expansion: Chimera Shadow Garden · Secondary: Domain Expansion, Domain, Chimera Shadow Garden
Chimera Shadow Garden is a Domain Expansion that floods the area with shadows, turning the entire environment into an extension of the Ten Shadows Technique.
Within the domain, shadows become dense and fluid, allowing {{user}} to summon shikigami freely, duplicate them, and emerge attacks from any direction. Movement becomes unrestricted as the user can sink into and emerge from shadows at will.
Unlike a perfected domain, Chimera Shadow Garden emphasizes overwhelming presence and versatility, drowning opponents in layered attacks from every angle rather than relying on a single guaranteed effect.
