As for the Nen question, personally I’d assume it could actually be a transmutation, conjuration, or manipulation ability, depending on it’s use. My brain went transmutation given your changing your shadow into something solid, but I’m not really sure. I would think of how you’re going to use it most and go from there, remember you can also use connecting categories at 80-60-40.


My current idea is that my character will actually be limited in what he can turn his shadow into though the available forms will increase. Each form has to somehow be meaningful to him whether they're symbolic or not and he will start out with two representing his uncle, a dog and an arm, note his shadow doesn't actually get the senses of a dog just the "body" of one.

Other limitations will be that while he can switch his shadow's "mass" around it's limited to whatever size it had when he activated his technique and has to remain connected to him. If his shadow is destroyed either by damage or anything that would remove shadows normally the technique is cancelled and he of course can't use it if his shadow isn't visible due it being too light or too dark.


Quick question, would someone who controls and solidifies his shadow be a specialist or a manipulator?
@Duthguy Sounds good! Is he trying to accomplish what they could not in their stead? Did they push them in that direction intentionally or was it a desire they discovered on their own? Thoughts and thoughts, be sure to flesh out that part!


The way I see it it started with the relative telling stories about the glory days and the more (recent) impressive adventures of his friends, some "clearly exaggerated or made up" because he mentioned them pulling stunts no human could do. At first he was against mc becoming a hunter just like mc's parents but he realized mc was serious convinced them to let train him at least somewhat so he is better prepared.

I have settled on making the hunter relative mc's uncle, that way it makes more sense for him to still be somewhat active as minor bounty hunter, which might offer more story opportunities than if he was fully retired
In my case the related hunter will probably be my character's uncle or grandfather who never made it big due to an injury early in their career that resulted in their arm or leg not healing completely properly. It's fine for everyday stuff and thanks to nen they could still handle some relatively minor fights
@Duthguy And a cool third fella has arrived, go ahead, say something cool guy.


Nah, instead I'll say something corny/cheesy in an attempt to be funny.

Cool guy? You must have misread my name, and of course the classic "something cool".
You had me at HunterxHunter
Of course the girl didn't know anything, Simon supposed that was more likely than her having all the answers somehow. He missed her cowering at first because the box had caught his attention though the fact it was filled with battle chips of all things only raised more questions. When he finally noticed how scared the girl was he didn't blame her all things considered and while he wanted see if the could wake bowlingball-head up and ask them some questions he figured he had to calm her down a little first. "Hey, are you okay? I'm sure we can find some others humans over at that phone tower we can ask for help."

while it had been a few days since his birthday Simon could still hardly believe his parents got him an Omniphone Gold, sure the whole resetting thing was gonna get annoying but still. Happy to finally have a phone with a camera he had taken several pictures already, of dogs, the sky, cool cars and so on.

The annoying part of the phone resetting became very clear when he was in the middle of typing a book-report and his phone suddenly rang, the fact that all he heard was static was just weird but that it caused the phone to reset without giving him the chance to save his work was far more upsetting in his mind. Not in the mood to redo the last half hour and feeling oddly tired Simon decided that a nap was a good idea.

When he opened his eyes again the first thing he noticed was some person with a flaming bowlingball for a head holding an egg. As he looked around he noticed more and more odd things about his surroundings, like the word welcome floating in his vision, the fact that he was outside and some unknown but cute girl. "I don't suppose you know what is going on."

While he managed to sound reasonably calm since he didn't want to make the young girl even more scared then she no doubt was he honestly was pretty close to panicking.

At first he thought he had to be dreaming but it all felt too realistic and he had never had a lucid dream before.
