Upon reaching adolescence, those within the Zen’in clan will show signs of manifesting their Cursed Technique, none as obvious as those who have been blessed with the Ten Shadows technique. Black pools of inky darkness pooling by their feet, a twin set of howls rupture the stillness of the air, as from that pool of shadows rise a complementary set of dogs, one as white as snow, the other as dark as shadow. These creatures are known as ‘Divine Dogs’ and are said to be the oldest companions to the Zen’in clan, supporting the use of the Ten Shadows technique to defeat and tame the remaining Shikigami.

• When summoning your Shikigami, they appear within 2 Meters of you at a speed equal to your C.E Control +5, being dispelled at your C.E Control.
