Killing Intent

Killing Intent is simply the user giving off their pure killing intention, and having it affect their opponent and others around them, up to the point of paralyzing them. When the Killing Intent is particularly strong, it can even give the victim visions of their own gruesome death. This can cause the Killing Intent to be confused with a genjutsu, despite not being a jutsu at all.
