The Yamanaka are a clan known for their abilities related to the mind, rather than the body. A clan native to Konoha, like many others they were scattered after it fell. The Yamanaka's most well known jutsu, the mind body switch technique, requires absolute precision and leaves the user vulnerable, so they most often pair up into teams with shinobi who can help them to entrap opponents. Yamanaka are also known to be good at using sensory abilities and barrier ninjutsu.

Mind Techniques Yamanaka are capable of projecting their mind outside of their body in order to take possession of another body. This technique is dangerous to perform because missing will leave the body vulnerable for several minutes. Wounds inflicted on the body also afflict the users body, so more clever means of detainment are often needed. Masterful Yamanaka can learn to control bodies without the need to leave their own for a brief period, but such techniques are highly taxing on chakra.
