Demonic Illusion: Cage of Dreams Technique



A high level Genjutsu technique, developed by The Dragonlord Experiment for the sake of live capture.

This Genjutsu works by completely shutting off an opponent's senses, forcing them to stay unconscious. While, theoretically, one should be able to break this Genjutsu on their own, they can't. That is because of the way it works. However, it has a very strict requirement.

After completing the handseals, the user must place his middle and index finger on the forehead of the target and retain physical contact for about 5 minutes as it takes effect. As such, it is impossible for this Genjutsu to be used in the midst of combat.

This is meant to be used on the target after they have been incapacitated and rendered unconscious. Then the technique has time to take effect.

The reason why this technique is impossible to break, is because the victim must be conscious in order to dispel Genjutsu on their own. However, as it is used as the target is unconscious, they can't react. Also, as the technique works by keeping them like that, they don't get the chance to break it.

That ensures the fact that the captive will stay nice and quiet, making it much easier to carry him back to one's home village for interrogation.

However, it is easy for an ally to break the Genjutsu and free the target, thus completely classifying this Genjutsu as a non-combat one.

The name was given due to the fact that the target looks like they are trapped in their dreams, sleeping and unable to wake up.
