Body Double 「分身体, bunshin tai」 is an extra skill acquired by Charys, Rimuru, Souei, and Ranga.
Abilities[]
It allows the user to make copies of themself. The durability, effective range and number of copies depends on the user's proficiency and the amount of magicules used. The user's equipment can also be duplicated as a side effect, though the grade of the duplicate may be lower than the original's, depending on the amount of magicules used.
The copies are not autonomous; instead, the skill employs a built-in variant of Thought Communication that allows the user to control the copies remotely. Thus, controlling multiple copies at once is quite difficult; moreover, the need to command the copies to act inevitably produces a time lag, although the use of the skill Thought Acceleration allows the user to at least accelerate the process and make the actions of the copies seem natural.[1]
The user can freely use their arts and lower-level skills through their copies. If the user is near a copy, they can even use unique skills through them, albeit with a small time lag.
