Name: Mobility Suit v2 (Puppet Armor)
Rank: A
Materials: Puppet Base (25 units of Ebony, 15 units of Silk, 25 units of Leather, 1 Cloak) | Senbon Launcers (4 wrist mounted senbon launchers, 1 unit of Titanium, 100 Senbons) | Assassin's Blade (2 unit of Titanium) | Tendril Claws (25 units of Titanium, 5 per claw + 5 for containment pack) | Flamethrower (10 units of Petroleum Oil, 5ft of Aluminium Piping, 1 Transducer, 5ft of Copper Wire) | Silent Veil (1 unit of Monarch's Providence) | Helmet (2 units Ebony, 1 rebreather, 1 unit of glass) | Smokescreen Generator (15ft of aluminium piping, 1 small canister holding 9 dosages of Smoke or gas, 1 transducer)| Electro Inducer (15ft of Copper Wires, 2 Transducers, 1 Battery) | Escape Hatch (2 units of Ebony, 2 units of titanium, 1 mirco transducer, 5ft of copper wire)

Weapons:

• Senbon Launchers: Both shoulders of the Puppet Armor have Senbon launchers built into them, each Senbon launcher can hold 50 senbons, capable of launching 10 senbons at a time, the Senbons are launched at B-Rank Force, at B-Rank Speed for 30 meters, C-Rank Speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters, and finally E-Rank speed for 10 meters before dropping off.
  
• Assassin's Blade: The Right arm of the Mobility Suit is equipped with a single blade hidden within the inside of its forearm, upon activation this blade extends out 15cm from the wrist, Like the rest of the puppet this blade is made out of pure Titanium giving it B++ properties.
  
• Tendril Claws: The Back of the Mobility Suit is modified to house 4 claws that are connected to titanium cables that can retract into a backpack like form for concealment. These tendril claws are activated via the puppet technique and then can be manipulated via the chakra strings technique from within the armor. These tendrils claws are B++ in Durability and when the claws are closed they are capable of forming spear like tips capable of piercing through B-Rank or lower Armor with ease. The Claws have a grip strength of B requiring A strength to break free and can be used to grab targets limbs or used to grab objects as they can each extend out to 5 meters and move equal to the user's coordination in relation to the chakra string technique.
  
• Flamethrower: The mobility suit is created with a minature version of the flamethrower within the right arm, the flamethrower's pipe running along the arm and coming out the back half of the hand and the upper arm built to hold the tank without hindering Kiyoshi within the armor. The flamethrower consists of two elements: the Tank and the sprayer piping. The Tank element consists of a cylinder of petroleum oil. The pressure system propels the flammable liquid out of the cylinders through a flexible pipe and then into the arm element of the Puppet when this is activated. The Piping for the Flamethrower running all the way down the arm to an opening on the backside of the right hand, where a small igniter sits just inside the opening. The sprayer piping consists of a small reservoir, a spring-loaded valve, and an ignition system; Using the Puppet Technique opens the valve, allowing pressurized patroleum oil to flow and pass over the igniter and out of the pipe end. The igniter is simple electrically heated wire coil, that produces a spark to ignite the flammable substance. Since the flamethrower projects a stream of flammable liquid, rather than flame, it is capable if bouncing the stream off walls and ceilings to project the fire into unseen spaces, such as inside bunkers. Operation is dangerous due to the fact that if the tanks are punctured the possibility of explosion is great, however the outer shell of the arm helps to prevent penetration. This Function Requires Petroleum Oil to order to Function, requiring that it be refilled when empty. The Upper Arm has a tank capable of holding 10 units of petroleum oil allowing for it to be used for a total of 10 posts before requiring to be filled again, using 1 Unit per post. The Flammable liquids streams Range is 120 meters and moves at B-Rank force and speed, catching all flammable materials that come in contact with it to start to burn.
  

Defenses:

• Silent Veil: Mobility Suit v2 possesses a single unit of Monarch's Providence, as such, this crystalline like material makes it so that when activated it creates a 30m field around Kiyoshi in which all sounds are totally muted. Any actions/dialogue taking place within this 30m barrier are silent.
  
• Helmet: This helmet provides protection in the form of both armor as well as a rebreather to protect from poisons and other toxins, the dark tinted visor of the helmet provides cover from bright flashes as well as genjutsu that requires eye contact as the eyes cannot be seen beneath the visor.
  
• Smokescreen Generator: The entirety of the puppet armor has small vents that are connected to a small cannister within the belt, through the use of the puppet technique a screen of smoke or gas can be released around him. This smoke/gas is distributed over a 15 meter Radius, and depending on what is used can be poisonous. The smoke/gas is not included in the puppet and must be purchased/crafted separately, this device is capable of holding 9 Dosages of Smoke/Gas. (9 Dosages of Knockout Gas)
  
• Electro Inducer A safety precaution for enemies that are able to get close, by channeling 5 chakra into the transducer built into the puppet, Kiyoshi is capable of releasing a small electro current through the copper wires that run along the puppet causing a small shock to anyone that is currently touching the puppet on the outside. While this does not damage the person(s), it can cause paralysis in those with constitutions of A-Rank or Lower for 1 Post.
  
• Escape Hatch: For the use of an absolute emergency when a catastrophic failure has occurred with the mobility suit. This function allows Kiyoshi to be ejected from the puppet at A-Rank speed to avoid the destruction of the armor, sending him 100 meters away from where the ejection occurred. During this function Kiyoshi is surrounded in a chakra protecting him from the force of momentum, allowing him to remain unharmed from this ejection. This Function costs Kiyoshi 10 Chakra.
  
• Chakra Shield Modification: The Left Arm of the Mobility Suit is Designed so that when Activated the forearm of the armor opens into four Segments spreading out to form a 1ft wide X with the hand of the arm in the center, this Addition to the puppet allows the user the use of the Chakra Shield Technique.

Stats: Str: - | Con: A (Puppet Armor)
General Description:

Image:

The Mobility Suit is a full body exoskeleton puppet created by Kiyoshi to allow him to move around more freely due to his own physical limitation, this Puppet is considered Puppet Armor. It is made to fit Kiyoshi perfectly as if it was armor complete with a helmet and a cloak covers the entirety of the puppet. Though it is form-fitting to Kiyoshi, it is actually larger and bulker than he is making him look bigger than he actually is, this is due to the puppet being made around him rather than its limbs by itself. From foot to shoulder pads the puppet stands five foot tall, its pure Ebony alloy with a tint of red. The tenacle claws of the puppet are stored in a small backpack like compartment on the back allowing it to be easily concealed beneath the cloak. The senbon launchers on the shoulders cause the shoulder of the puppet to rise above Kiyoshi's neckline, making it appear as though he is wearing small shoulder pads underneath the cloak.
Requirements: Kugutsu
Weaknesses: Its biggest weakness is its speed, due to being armor it is incapable of moving faster than C-Rank Speed regardless of the users coordination.

Name: Wolf (x2)
Rank: B
Materials: 10 units of Ebony | 20 units of Titanium | 50 Smoke Bombs
Weapons: Dart Launcher - Wolf's mouth is designed with a specially crafted launcher capable of launching 'Injector Darts' (which is a B-Rank Craft and must be crafted separately) Capable of firing the darts at B-Rank force at B-Rank Speed for 10 meters, C-Rank speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters, and then E-Rank speed for 30 meters before dropping off giving it a total distance of 100 meters. A special reloader within the puppet allows the puppet to hold 20 darts and will reload the launcher automatically upon its use. (Both Wolf Puppets have: 10 injector darts of Chakra Poison, 5 injector darts of Kryptonite, 5 injector darts of Harvester)

Ebony Claws: Wolf is designed with twenty pure ebony claws that can cut through armor and flesh with ease. With A++ cutting power, each strike of its claws are capable of slicing through B-Rank or lower armor with ease and can even slice into A-Rank armor though multiple strikes would be required to make it all the way through the armor, the claws are also capable of piercing A-tier or lower constitution slicing through the flesh with little effort.

Powerful Jaw: Wolf's teeth are made of pure titanium, and its jaw works with a pressurized system that is activated throught the puppet technique allowing the puppet to bite down on a target with B-Rank Force capable of piercing trough B-rank or lower constitution as well as armor.

Roll Out: (Requires Puppet to be in Armadillo Mode) Wolf is capable of moving while in Armadillo mode by rolling at high speeds equal to the coordination of the puppet user. While in Armadillo mode they cannot use other attack funtions however the armor that makes up Wolf allows it to deal B++ Force behind its attacks making this rolling wrecking ball extremely hazardous to stand in front of.

Defenses: Armadillo Mode: Wolf is capable of closing in on itself under its titanium shell forming into a Sphere, while in this mode he cannot make attacks other than 'Roll Out' and cannot use other Defenses, however his Con and Str are both considered B++

Smoke Distributor: On each of wolf's sides there are small holes which can be used to emitting smoke to disrupt the visual area around it. This is accomplished through the use of Smoke bombs, Wolf is capable of storing 50 smoke bombs within a chamber within its stomach, through the use of the puppet technique the use is capable of deploying one which the inner mechanics crush the ball causing the smoke to activate as it releases the smoke around it to hide where it is.

Name: Mini-mi
Rank: B
Materials: Puppet Base (10 units of Senju Wood | 5 units of Titanium) | Palm Spikes (2 units of Titanium) Hidden Blades (5 units of Titanium) | Senbon Launcher (2 unit of Titanium | 2 wrist mounted senbon launchers | 15ft of copper wire | Transducer) | Scorpion Tail (15ft Steel Chain | 5 units of Titanium)
Weapons:

• Palm Spikes: The arms of the Mini-mi have been modified to house blades inside so that when activated via the puppet technique the palms open and the spike like blades extends out 15cm from within the palms, These blades are made of Titanium and are considered B++ in Sharpness/Durability.
  
• Hidden Blades: Mini-Mi's arms, legs, and head can detach from the torso revealing small 15cm blades that can then be manipulated through the chakra strings to attack the Target. These blades are made of Titanium and are considered B++ in Sharpness/Durability.
  
• Senbon Launcher: Mini-Mi's head has been fitted with a Senbon launcher that holds an automatic reloader inside the head cavity capable of holding 200 Senbons. The Launcher itself is capable of launching 20 Senbons at a time through the use of the puppet technique, these senbons are launched out at B-Rank force and A-Rank Speed for 10 meters, B-Rank Speed for 30 meters, C-Rank Speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters and then finally E-Rank Speed for 10 meters before dropping off.
  
• Scorpion Tail: A 5-meter extendable bladed tail made of Titanium; The Tail is considered B++ in Sharpness/Durability. The tail is divided into small 15cm segments held together by Titanium infused steel chain to allow the flexibility desired but keep the lethality of it. The tail can be manipulated through the chakra strings technique, curving to attack from any direction desired based on the coordination of the user, when not in use this tail is held retracted within a compartment in the back of Mini-mi usually concealed by the Cloths Kiyoshi places over it, so the enemy doesn't know it is there until he uses it.
  

Defenses:

• Chakra Vaccuum Seal: (A-Rank) Inside the Chest compartment of Mini-mi sets a seal designed to absorb non-physical chakra-based attacks such as ninjutsu. When activated Mini-mi's chest opens at the user's coordination revealing a hollow cavity with the Fuuinjutsu Formula written within. The activation of this ability costs the puppet user 10 chakra (reduced cost due to Senju wood) however it allows them to absorb a single Ninjutsu non-physical attack of A-Rank or Lower by pulling in the technique to the seal (Puppet must be in the path of the technique at time of activation). This Seal creates a wind tunnel like effect that pulls the technique to the seal when it comes within 15 meters of it. Techniques such as Earth or water that has a physical composition cannot be absorbed by this seal. Once the seal has absorbed a single technique it enters a cooldown, this cooldown is dependent on the rank of the technique absorbed by the seal. Absorbtion of a A-Rank technique requires a 2 post Cooldown before it can be used again, a B-Rank technique requires a 1 post Cooldown before it can be used again, a C-Rank or lower technique requires no Cooldown, and the seal can be used the following post.
  

Stats: Str: B | Con: B
General Description: Mini-mi is designed to look exactly like Kiyoshi, if he was 3 feet tall and made of wood that is. Mini-mi's hair is a wig made of Kiyoshi's own hair to give it an authentic appearance on the outside. His body is covered by wearing one of Kiyoshi's old shirts to make him look more human, or at the very least make him look less puppet-like.

Name: Goliath
Rank: S
Materials: 50 Units of Ebony | 25 Units of Jade | 20 Units of Polymer | 3 Aluminium Pressurized Canister | 50 Transducers | 30ft of Copper Wires | 20 Units of Petroleum Oil | 15ft of Aluminium Piping | 2,000 Senbons | 40 Kunai
Weapons:

• Ambidextrous Hands: The hands of Goliath are so finely made that they are capable of holding a one-handed weapon in each hand, allowing the puppet user to have Goliath wield the weapons through the use of the puppet technique. Alternatively, these hands can be used to grapple a target preventing them from escape. When used in this manner, breaking free requires the target to have a strength greater than that of Goliath, or a technique that can cause his grip to break/destroy the arms.
  
• Blasting Fists: Both left and right forearms possess custom made engines within that requires the puppet user to pay 5 chakra to activate, when activated the fist and forearm detach from just below the elbow and launching the 12 inch diameter size fist attached to the 2ft long rocket forearm out at A-Rank Speed and Force to a maximum of 100 meters before they fly back to reattach to the puppet. (A one post cooldown is required before can be used again) A single fist can be activated at a time, or both can be activated at the same time, but each fist launch requires the payment of 5 chakra.
  
• Flamethrower: A flamethrower is a mechanical incendiary device designed to project a long, controllable stream of fire. Goliath's Right Upper Arm is Built with a specially made Tank for a Flamethrower that can be activated via the puppet technique. The flamethrower consists of two elements: the Tank and the sprayer piping. The Tank element consists of a cylinder of flammable liquid. The pressure system propels the flammable liquid out of the cylinders through a flexible pipe and then into the arm element of the Puppet when this is activated. Though the Forearm is designed to detach from the rest of the arm for a separate function, the Flame thrower can be utilized whether the forearm is attached or not. The Piping for the Flamethrower running all the way down the arm to an opening in the Right Palm where a small igniter sits just inside the opening. Alternatively, if the Forearm is detached for whatever reason, whether it is because it was destroyed or because of a malfunction, the Flamethrower can still be used as a secondary igniter to ignite the flammable liquid exists at the connection point of the forearm. The sprayer piping consists of a small reservoir, a spring-loaded valve, and a dual ignition system; Using the Puppet Technique opens the valve, allowing pressurized flammable liquid to flow and pass over the igniter and out of the pipe end. The igniter is simple electrically heated wire coil, that produces a spark to ignite the flammable substance, the secondary igniter only activates if the forearm is detached. Since the flamethrower projects a stream of flammable liquid, rather than flame, it is capable if bouncing the stream off walls and ceilings to project the fire into unseen spaces, such as inside bunkers. Operation is dangerous due to the fact that if the tanks are punctured the possibility of explosion is great, however the outer shell of Goliath's arm helps to prevent penetration. This Function Requires Petroleum Oil to order to Function, requiring that it be refilled when empty. The Upper Arm has a tank capable of holding 20 units of petroleum oil allowing for it to be used for a total of 20 posts before requiring to be filled again, using 1 Unit per post. The Flammable liquids streams Range is 120 meters and moves at B-Rank speed.
  
• Kunai Launcher: Goliath's Left Upper Arm is designed with a Kunai Launcher that is activated via the puppet technique; however, it is only usable if the Left Forearm is inoperable and not attached to Goliath. The Senbon Launcher is Capable of Launching a Kunai At A-Rank Force, moving at A-Rank Speed for 10 meters, B-Rank Speed for 30 meters, C-Rank Speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters, and finally E-Rank Speed for 10 meters before dropping off. The Upper Arm is also equipped with an Auto-reloader which is capable of holding 40 Kunai reloading the launcher automatically after it is fired, and the pressurized air canister that is required to launch the Kunai each launch uses 0.5 units of the Canisters Reserves, once all 40 Kunai have been launched a new canister must be purchased with the restock of Kunai.
  
• Senbon Launcher Kneecap: Goliath's Left knee is designed with an A-Rank Senbon Launcher built into it, that is activated via the puppet technique. Capable of firing 50 Senbon at a time at A-Rank Force, moving at A-Rank Speed for 10 meters, B-Rank Speed for 30 meters, C-Rank Speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters, and finally E-Rank Speed for 10 meters before dropping off. The Left Thigh holds an auto-reloader connected to the Senbon launcher, stocked with 2,000 Senbon that can be fired from the launcher reloading it with 50 automatically each time it is fired. The Left Calf holds the Pressurized Air Canister which powers the launch of the Kunai, each launch uses 0.5 units of the Canisters reserves, once all 2000 senbon have been launched the Canister has to be replaced as well as restocking the senbons within the auto-reloader.
  
• Bomb Launcher Kneecap: Goliath's Right Knee is designed with a special B-Rank Launcher built to launch bombs that is activated via the puppet technique. The bombs it can launch varies and is determined by the puppet user when they stock it as they do not come with the puppet and must be acquired separately. These bombs are Launched at B-Rank Force, Moving at B-Rank Speed for 10 meters, C-Rank Speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters, and finally E-Rank Speed for 10 meters before dropping off. The Right Thigh holds an auto-reloader connected to the launcher, that can be stocked with up to 20 bombs that can be fired from the launcher. The Right Calf holds the Pressurized Air Canister which powers the launch of the bombs, each launch uses 1 unit of the Canisters reserves, once all 20 bombs have been launched the Canister has to be replaced as well as restocking the bombs within the auto-reloader. (Loaded with 10 Ball barring barrage bombs, 10 flash-bang bombs. Alternating placed so that 1 is not used more than the other. )
  
• Chakra Thunder Cannon Chest Plate: Requires the Puppet User to Pay 20 Chakra to Activate. Goliath's Chest plate holds a Jade orb in its Center; however, this is actually a specially designed cannon chest plate made to take chakra that is applied to it and then release it in a fist size beam of Electrical energy through the help of Transducers. This Beam deals B-Rank Raiton Damage and has a range of 60 meters. After its use, this canon requires a two-post cooldown before it can be used again as the transducers need time to cool.
  

Defenses: Though not built for Defense, Goliath is a Tank of a puppet with a Hardness/Durability Rating of A++ making it hard to damage as only the toughest of weapons/techniques are capable of such a feat.

Stats: Str: A | Con: A

General Description: Considered by Kiyoshi to be his greatest work, a marvel of both Puppets and Engineering. Goliath is a 7ft tall monster of a puppet, that is 3 and a half feet in width from shoulder to shoulder. While his wooden base remains on the inside, his outer shell is made of a mixture of Ebony and Jade adding to both its Str and Con in comparison to Kiyoshi's other puppets. The Jade within his shell has earned the puppet the name of The Jade Emperor, though it is usually just referred to as Goliath. The Puppet sports a beard made out of Polymer rope and bears features one would expect of a Samurai or Warlord.

Name: Kenrō
Rank: B
Materials: Puppet Base (10 Units of Senju Wood, 15 units of Titanium) | Strong Fists (2 units of Titanium) | Air Vents (2 units of Titanium, 1 Transducer, 5ft copper wire, 2 tanks of pressurized Air) | Sonic Resonator (3 units of Titanium, 1 Transducer, 5ft of copper wire, 2 units of Jade, 1 Battery)
Weapons:

• Strong Fists: Unlike most puppets Kenrō is designed to get up close to an opponent, capable of delivering power punches due the the extra Titanium worked into the fists. Imitating the punching movements of a Taijutsu user, Kenrō's fists are just as lethal as the rest of his weapons.
  
• Air Vents: Both of Kenrō's arms are designed with specially crafted titanium tubing running through the length of the arms to small openings within the palm, these tubes are connected to the inner mechanics of the chest cavity. This system uses pressurized Air releasing it in short bursts through the use of the puppet technique, allowing Kenrō to launch bullet-like projectiles of air from its palm. Traveling at B+ Speed for 50 meters with B-Rank Force, these air bullets are capable of piercing straight through unprotected flesh with ease.
  

Defenses:

• Sonic Resonator: Kenrō's head is designed with a device that is capable of releasing a loud ear-piercing sound that is capable of reducing the coordination of those within 10 meters of it by -1 Tier as long as it remains active, and they are within the range. This is activated via the puppet technique.
  

Stats: Str: B | Con: B
General Description: Standing at 6ft tall, Kenrō looks rather intimidating, much more physical than other puppets, and that is due to the fact that it was built to be physical. Getting up close with the target to take advantage of its functions, its fists are the size of an average male adult and while its body is made fo a mixture of Titanium and wood in such a way that it looks like metallic wood, its fists have a clear plating of pure Titanium. It is covered in clothing on would expect a taijutsu user to wear, helping in the illusion when Kiyoshi activates his techniques to make it look human.

Name: Yami
Rank: B
Materials: Puppet Base (40 units of Titanium) | Buzzsaw (5 units of Titanium) | Clawed Hands (10 units of Titanium) | Poison Tank (4 units of Titanium, 10 units of Polymer, 10 units of Glass) | Cable (10 units of Titanium) | Tazer (4 Transducers, 15ft of copper wire, 1 unit of jade)
Weapons:

• Buzzsaw: Yami's head is designed in a circle for a reason, upon activation of this function through the puppet technique Titanium saw blades will extend out from the head 7cm as the head begins to spin at A-Rank Speed, capable of cutting through A-Rank or lower armor.
  
• Clawed Hands: Rather than fingers, Yami has blades, each hand bearing 5 dagger like blades. These blades are made of pure titanium 7cm in length and have a rating of B++ in Sharpness/Durability. The Arms of Yami can extend out to 5-meters giving it a larger field of attack than most think when looking at it.
  
• Poison Tank: Yami's Chest cavity is designed to hold 30 dosages of liquid poison in a specially designed tank, capable of holding vials to be used, this poison is distributed through hoses that run through the arm of the puppet connecting to the 10 daggers of its hands, capable of distributing 1 dose across the daggers per activation. Poison is only viable for the post this function is activated as the spreading of the poison lowers its potency, making the user have to use a new dose with each post they try to use this function. (Contains 10 vials of Chakra Poison, 10 vials of Kryptonite, 10 vials of Harvester)
  
• Cable: Yami's Stomach cavity is designed with a 30ft titanium cable that can be launched out to grab a target preventing their escape from an advance or pull the target towards it. The Cable is housed on a reel within the stomach that can be reeled in at B+ speed and requires B++ Strength or higher to not be pulled towards the puppet, however the puppet can still be pulled towards the target if their strength is higher.
  
• Tazer: Due to its shell being made out of Titanium Yami is capable of carrying an electric current through its body, this current is created through the use of transducers within its legs. This Current does not extend beyond the puppet itself, requiring contact with the puppet to be made for this function to work. When Activated at the cost of 10 chakra, this deals B-Rank Raiton Damage and can cause paralysis in those with constitutions of A-Rank or Lower for 1 Post.
  

Defenses: Yami is not meant for defense however its Titanium shell makes it extremely durable, giving it a rating of B++ making it no pushover.
Stats: Str: B | Con: B
General Description: Yami stands at 5 and a half feet tall, designed almost like a Jacko lantern in the face with blades for fingers, it definitely has a slighly creepy vibe to it when it is seen. Yami is made completely out of Titanium it is a perfect conductor of electricity, which is why Kiyoshi installed a device to cause it to do such, which can paralyze targets.

Name: Chitora
Rank: B
Materials: Puppet Base (80 units of Wood) | Four Arm Grapple (20 units of wood) | Containment (40 units of Titanium) Shuriken Launcher (3 units of Titanium, 1 Transducer, 5ft of copper wire, 1 unit of Iron)
Weapons:

• Four Arm Grapple: Chitora is designed with 4 arms, each one capable of extending out to grab a target up to 10 meters away and pulling them back towards it. This is possible through the use of Fuuinjutsu seals placed on the joints where the arms connect to the torso, within the seal is the extended lengths of the arms.
  
• Containment: Designed as a way to capture and detain a high priority target, Chitora's entire abdomen is hollow, upon activation the abdomen opens revealing this hollow cavity which is large enough to hold a single adult person within it. due to the limited space however it does not allow much movement and due to the Titanium used to create the inner shell for containment it has a durability of B++, making it extremely difficult to escape once locked inside.
  
• Shuriken Launcher: Chitora's head is designed with a B-Rank Shuriken Launcher that can launch Shuriken in rapid succession, holding a total of 50 shuriken which are launched 1 at a time, though they can be launched back-to-back. These Shuriken are Launched at B-Rank Force, Moving at B-Rank Speed for 10 meters, C-Rank Speed for 30 meters, D-Rank Speed for 30 meters, and finally E-Rank Speed for 10 meters before dropping off.
  

Defenses:

• Containment: Though designed for the holding of a prisoner, the hollow abdomen of Chitora also offers a defensive perspective, protecting the one inside as if they were wearing B++ Armor. This can be used to transport a high priority client as well as a means of protecting them.
  

Stats: Str: B | Con: B
General Description: Chitora is a 6' 7" tall, four armed puppet that is designed to look like a pirate, which Kiyoshi even topped off with authentic clothing to match. Designed as a means to capture a target and transport them without issue, or if need be a walking tank to protect someone within. With the exception of the Shuriken launcher in its head, its design's only purpose is to capture and detain a target, leaving very little use for it in actual combat if capture is not the objective.

Name: Strider
Rank: B
Materials:
Weapons: Puppet Base (10 Units of Senju Wood, 30 units of Titanium)  | Water Pumps (5ft of Aluminium Piping, 1 Transducer) | Steam Veil (5ft of aluminium piping, 1 Transducer, 5ft of Copper Wire) | Claws (2 units of Ebony) | Water Collectors (5ft of Aluminium Piping, 1 Transducer)

• Claws: Striders hands are long claws that although they look wooden in appearance, on the inside of the claws are Razor sharp blades made out of pure Ebony with A++ cutting power, creating deep lacerations. Each strike of its claws are capable of slicing through B-Rank or lower armor with ease and can even slice into A-Rank armor though multiple strikes would be required to make it all the way through the armor.
  
• Hydro Pumps: Strider's arms are both outfitted with a high-powered water propulsion device, that acts nearly identical to a flamethrower minus the lighter. Connected to a large reservoir within Strider's torso, these pumps, can release short high-powered bursts of water like a bullet or a powerful more constant stream, no matter how it is used it requires that there is water within Strider's tank. The bullet form creates a total 10 bullets and uses 1 unit (gallon) of water, whereas the Stream uses 5 units (gallons) of water per post. The Bullets of water are launched out at A-Rank Speed and Force to a distance of 120m, while the Stream is launched at B-Rank Speed and Force to a distance of 60m.
  

Defenses:

• Steam Veil: Strider possesses small pin-sized holes all over its torso, when activated these holes release steam by super-heating the water within its storage container. This Steam creates a veil around the puppet obscuring it from view as though it was using the Hiding in Mist technique, this veil spreads out at D-Rank speed from the puppet to a radius of 5 meters and uses 10 units (gallons) of water per post that it is used. Due to the heat that creates the steam, those that touch the steam unprotected will suffer from B-Rank Burns to the exposed flesh.
  

Additional:

• Water Storage: Strider and its many components are designed to use water, as such its entire torso is made to hold said water within a specially designed drum within the torso with various connections to the different items that require water to use. This Drum is capable of holding 50 units (gallons) of water. There is a small heater element within the container that is capable of super-heating the water to evaporate and form steam for the steam veil function.
  
• Water Collection: The bottom of Strider's feet are designed with vacuum pumps that can suck in water to refill the drum if it is standing on top of a water source, these pumps are able to refill 5 units (gallons) of water per post each for a total of 10 units (gallons) of water per post.

Name: Martial Puppetry x2
Rank: D
Power: Varies
Activation Cost: 3
Upkeep Cost: 1 [3 UA Flaw]
Range: N/A
Speed: N/A
Element: N/A
Skill: Kugutsu
Classification: Open
Requirements: Taijutsu, Bukijutsu, Kenjutsu, or Kyūjutsu
Parent Technique: N/A

Description: Combining their knowledge of both Kugutsu and another martial art, the user manipulates a humanoid puppet into preforming a technique or fighting style that they know to a puppet.
Weaknesses: Techniques that require chakra, such as Gentle Fist, need some way to supply the desired effect. This technique needs to be used for every individual technique & fighting style used on each individual puppet, potentially adding up in cost very quickly. (So a basic D rank fighting style being used by 10 puppets would cost 21 CP; 1 CP for each individual puppet and 10 CP for 10 uses of Martial Puppetry)

Rank: C

Description: Strong Fist is Konohagakure's signature fighting style, the purpose of which is to cause external damage and break bones. It is the exact opposite of Gentle Fist which is used mainly by the Hyūga Clan. This style of fighting involves smashing your opponent and is generally used only by extremely physically powerful and dominating shinobi.

This fighting style generally does not beat around the bush in its tactics, with many practitioners charging head on at an opponent. This bullish attitude is backed up with incredibly quick and agile maneuvers and acrobatics to launch powerful strings of kicks and knees. Many of its signature techniques revolve around these particularly powerful kicks. Upper body strikes are still utilized quite often, including various strikes with the hand and generous elbows. Those who can use this physical style are a force to be reckoned with, as they can put together incredible strings of attacks that have a deceptive amount of force behind them without slowing between strikes.

This style boosts Strength a + and Coordination by a ++. The user may sacrifice speed for power if they choose, reversing these boosts. Once reversed, they can't be reversed again for three posts beginning the post after the switch.

Weaknesses: N/A

Name: Inspired Grade Ninja Tool 1 - Monarch’s Scales [Model Adjustment: Fuuton]
Item Rank: B
Material Rank: B+
Units Used: Steel [2] + Polymer [2]
Description: This massive fan stands at 1.75 meters. The two guards are each .25 meters wide and .125 meters thick, giving the closed item an impressive profile. The tool isn't meant for use as a weapon, but when spread open this tool has two functions.

• A user in the air can use the fan to glide on winds or shock waves with power up to B at B++ speed. When the winds stop for every 10 meters it glides, its speed drops by a +. Without the presence of wind a user can use this item to safely glide to the ground moving forward and falling at D++ speed.
  
• The user can use the fan to launch a 1 meter wide projectile. This projectile follows the thrown projectile rules and uses impact strength to knock opponents 2 meters back [resisted by equal or greater strength] instead of damaging them.
  

This fan’s guards are a deep and dark orange like mulched autumn leaves. In most circumstances they simply appear black. The pale material of the connective polymers is light and pastel in a manner that almost makes it seem like it was coffee stained.

Description: This technique targets an object, structure, puppet, or creature that the user has the puppet strings technique on or themselves. The user can determine an a second target that the first is in contact with and generate a mass of chakra strings that will, at the point of contact portrude out of the first target and into the second, effectively sewing the two things together. The strings will last until they are broken by brute force (strength equivalent to the jutsu’s Power) damage of eaual rank. with a stitch length of 5 mm this jutsu can be used to repair objects, heal puppets’ damage, attach severed limbs.

Additional Effect: The user can extend the effects of a chakra strings technique to combined objects.
