Clan Name: Yamanaka
Village of Occupancy: Konohagakure no Sato
Clan Leader: N/A
Ability/Hidden Technique: Shintenshin no Jutsu - Mind Body Change Technique
Clan Functions & Description: The Yamanaka clan (山中一族, Yamanaka Ichizoku) runs a flower shop and specializes in manipulating the minds of their opponents. Their techniques range from transferring consciousness to communicating telepathically. Blond hair and blue eyes seem to be characteristic of Yamanakas. The members of this clan also seem to hold a fondness with asthetics, and like to live a stylish, chique lifestyle. Due to their experience in their family flower shop, the members of the clan also seem to know quite a lot about plants -- flowers especially -- and what metaphorical meanings are behind them.
The Yamanaka clan seems to have a special relationship with the Akimichi clan and Nara clan. For at least two generations, members of these three families have formed an "Ino-Shika-Cho trio," named after the first part of the names of the members. The Yamanaka members are the Ino in the trio. "Ino," "Shika" and "Cho" are the names of three cards needed for a highly prized trick of "Inoshikacho" in the Hanafuda.
Kekkai Genkai/Hidden Technique Description:
The abilities of the Yamanaka clan focus on mind manipulation, this ranges from taking over someone else’s body for spying and other useful things they can do in a target’s body. The user transfers their own mind into the mind of another being in the direct line of sight. While in the other being's mind, the user's body remains completely immobile, empty and prone. If the user misses the target, it takes several moments for their mind to return to their body, leaving it open for attack.

Additional Hidden Techniques / Supporting Techniques:
1. Shintenshin no Jutsu - Mind Body Change Technique
Rank: C
Distance: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Description: Shintenshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique originally used for spying. The ninja forms the needed handseals and then projects their spirit out of their body into their target. This can be another ninja or an animal. Unfortunately the spirit flies in a straight line at a slow speed. If the target moves and avoids the incoming spirit, the ninjas body falls lifeless until the spirit can find its way back to the body several minutes later. Because of the risk involved, the ninja must be very careful. When used in conjunction with a binding technique the chance of success greatly increases.
While inhabiting the body of their opponent, the target still remains in their mind but their mental processes are forced aside as the ninja takes control. However if the target has strong mental fortitude, they can overpower the intruder and force them out of their body. Also while in the body of their target, if the ninja takes sudden physical damage, their original body will be hurt as well.
2. Shinranshin no Jutsu - Mind Derangement Technique
Rank: B
Distance: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m)
Description: Shinranshin no Jutsu is a Ninjutsu technique which is used to confuse the targets body into attacking a nearby ally. The ninja will form the needed hand seal and then send their spiritual energy of confusion at his opponent. Though the opponent is mentally aware of his action, he is unable to stop his body from carrying out the attack.
