Schatten

Schatten (自己韜晦 (シャドー), Shaten; German for "Shadow", Japanese for "Concealing One's Position'') is a Quincy transportation technique.

Description
This technique enables the Quincy user to open a pathway between two different dimensions through a shadow. By placing his or her hand on the ground and then swiftly swinging his or her arm outward, they are able to greatly extend the resultant shadow to manifest a towering portal shaped like the Quincy Cross, which is large enough to allow several people to exit simultaneously.

As demonstrated by, this technique can also be used in the heat of battle. This works by forming a shadow that is shaped like the user and then causing it to swiftly overtake the user, allowing him or her to teleport wherever they desire.
