Gen'ei

Gen'ei (幻影, Shadowy Apparition) are essentially beast-like creatures birthed by the shadows which engulf Jashin's body in the world's evil. They are physically capable of defeating close-range fighters due to their agile and relentless fighting style, however they lack the mentality to think situations over and lunge at their foes regardless possibly being disadvantaged. Equipped with sharp claws they are not to be trifled with, especially when they can tear open one's chest without any difficulty.

Despite being Shadowy Apparitions, they do not possess a weakness to light, however unless they've been birthed directly from the avatar-state of Jashin or battle in an area where only darkness resides, they are quite easy to defeat. However the opposite scenario occurs when they sprout out of Jashin's shadow-form or are fighting where the over-towering shadows keeps light from refracting off of their bodies - with each physical strike they divide into two separate beings, and with another into another two, until their numbers become incalculable and swarm over their prey likes a tidal wave converging upon a small child. Their power comes not in physical strength, but numbers; and in the darkness, their victory is certain.

Jashin calls upon these beasts whenever he requires a distraction, or numerable scapegoats for when preparing for even more colossal techniques. When in his shadow-form, little to no chakra is required to summon the Gen'ei considering they're birthed by that composing his shroud.
