Ice Release: Manikin Production

This is a technique which requires the user to have access to both Ice Release to form the physical embodiments and Yin-Yang Release to breath life into them, additionally granting whatever is created utilizing this technique artificial intelligence.

In order for this technique to be properly utilized, a pre-existing source of frost or a body of ice/snow is required in order to form the shells required to house the wills of the warriors where the user animates them without requiring the usage of chakra strings - remote control in a sense, to create for their own, a horde of manikins bound to their will. If not used in an area where these conditions cannot be met, the user must create the ice either through clustering and solidifying water vapour or create the substance through nature transformation, although this requires a substantial amount of chakra and an intense amount of concentration to not only visualize the intended design for the warrior, but also program their function(s), not to mention materialize them accordingly.

Technique Development
These manikins were originally designed by Zyeta Uchiha as an attempt to draw his own warriors into the world. However they were incomplete puppets, which he later sealed away for later study. This is retconned as he joins Genesis. When he awakened his Rinnegan, Zyeta ran diagnostics on a shard of ice. He found when he infused it with Yin-Yang chakra, it reacted similar to an organic lifeform and later developed as if it were a living creature, sprouting arms and even legs. Research on the sample resulted in the mass production of simulated lifeforms made from the 'animated ice', the first manikins. They remained formless until approached in their containment cell, at which point they took on the forms of Zyeta who was observing them. However, they were mindless puppets, and so he formulated a technique augmented to grant these beings artificial intelligence. Though it proved impractical for widespread use, Zyeta was able to implant a manikin with memories of ten other individuals, resulting in a manikin that resembled a grotesque monster but was the size of, and acted like, a human child. He later called it as it developed, 'False Stalwart', being that it was the first warrior he was able to create, yet was purely artificial. Research continued with the manikins, and eventually the successful transplant of a complete set of memories to one was successful - this manikin was named the 'False Hero', which took on the appearance of a more 'human' version of the False Stalwart. Ultimately, most of the manikins failed to take on memories and were sealed in his pocket dimension. Zyeta continued to produce manikins, creating alternative personalities to better suit his fighting style in battle.
