Ayatsuri Update [Fin]

Name: Black Knight  
Rank: S
Type: Offensive/Defensive
Slots: 37 | 40
Description: A hulking puppet of elegant make, Black Knight stands at just over nine feet in height, dwarfing any mere mortal in his great stature. With broad shoulders and an overall powerful build, the puppet can intimidate even the bravest of warrior with but a glance. Appearing as a classic knight, the puppet looks to be a massive suit of black armor with dull gunmetal gray accents laid into it. The helm, which obscures the whole of the nonexistent face of the puppet, resembles the beak of some avian creature and conceals what appears to be an endlessly black void. Though a puppet of dense and powerfully defensive Kaguya bone, the construct is surprisingly light, allowing it to move quickly on the battlefield. Unlike some puppets, Black Knight boasts an immediately visible great sword, a massive thing of about seven foot’s length and a foot and a half's width at the base, the blade is viciously sharp and amazingly deadly.
Modifications:

• Armament Augmentation: The characteristic weapon of the puppet, this augment takes the form of a huge great sword, long and wide and terribly sharp. The heft of the blade alone allows it to crush men and their puny defensive measures and the cutting edge spells certain death for any who would oppose the puppet’s master. Though Black Knight most often carries the weapon around, it can be stored within its body for safekeeping or travel. While huge, the creature wields the blade with terrifying proficiency, tossing it around almost as if it had no weight at all.
  
  
• Reinforced Hull (B) x3: Little more than an elaborate suit of armor passing as a person, this puppet is a hulking construct capable of taking a massive beating. Metal in nature, additional reinforcement in key locations, such as the joints, has served to make this truly a difficult force to reckon with in combat.
  
  
• Piston Blade: Stored in the puppet’s left arm, this blade, sharp and deadly, springs forth at a simple command on the master’s call. From here it can serve simply as a hidden blade, though one of a rather strange make as it is thick and almost chisel like. However, it has a twist: should the puppeteer desire, the blade can become like a jackhammer, rapidly launching forward and back, over and over, at great speeds. This allows the blade and its deadly sharpness to tear through defenses and crush armors with ease. The blade itself extends out two feet from the puppet’s arm.
  
  
• Internalized Joints: Constructed carefully and with survivability in mind, this puppet keeps all of its joints on the inside of its body, any weak points internalized and covered with armor and thick cloth. As such, the puppet has no seams or anything like that, safeguarding it from any sort of dust, sand, or other material which might otherwise clog its delicate functions.
  
  
• Vibro Blade: A vibrating system placed within both the main greatsword of the puppet and at the base of the Piston Blade, this augmentation allows for the puppet to effortlessly slice through even the strongest of defenses, ensuring that virtually no one can hid from his mercilessly hunting blade. So powerful is it even that it can oftentimes cut straight through other warrior's prized weaponry.
  

Location of Insignia: At the base of the blade on either side and on the back of the inside of the helmet.

Name: Queen’s Double
Rank: S
Type: Defensive/Supplementary
Slots: 36 | 40
Description: Picture
An ingenious puppet created to serve as a double for the puppeteer, The Queen’s Double can be and is most often worn as a second skin. Due to internalized hinges and other moving parts, as well as general good craftsmanship, the puppet looks completely real. Lifelike even. Kaguya clan bones riddled with additional light alloy additions provide a powerful frame upon which rests a bedrock of strong wood and metal, forming a plaque upon which the final layer of the puppet has been built. This layer is comprised of a silicone based synthetic skin which looks remarkably lifelike, complete with hair made from the user’s own follicles. As such, simple sight alone cannot differentiate the puppet from the real human as even the movements appear as those which a human would make. The mouth houses a collection of false teeth of astounding realness and is capable of full speech by using the puppeteer’s voice.

The real purpose of this puppet, however, is to be worn almost like a second skin by the puppeteer. Due to this unique construction, the puppet requires no chakra or threads to move about so long as the user is wearing it, though of course should she choose to shed this outer layer threads will be required to move the puppet as a kind of look alike to the puppeteer. The puppet has the ability to split down the middle in either the front or the back, allowing the puppeteer to slip in or out of it with ease, though these seams are, of course, concealed in totality.
Modifications:

• Reinforced Hull (B) (x3): Primarily built with defense in mind, both the bone frame and the under layer are highly reinforced with lightweight alloys, high durability bones, and strong wood, which allows the puppet to take a huge beating without breaking or, in many cases, even showing battle scars.
  
  
• Sensory Input Array (C): Located primarily in the head of the puppet, the creation boasts a highly sensitive and sophisticated array of sensory equipment. The perfectly lifelike eyes hide a wide array of lenses and the ears and nose send off high frequency sound pulses, allowing the user hiding within to see a readout of the echolocation and infrared data collections on a screen within the puppet, granting those within unprecedented information collection from the surrounding environment.
  
  
• Internalize Joints (D): Perhaps the part of the puppet that most impresses, all seams and moving parts of the puppet remain on the innards of the puppet, concealing its true nature completely.
  
  
• Flame Retardant Construction (A): Non-flammable components allow the puppet to resist fire based offenses of even high calibers an prevent the puppet from catching ablaze randomly in the heat of battle.  
  
  
• Insulated Creation (A): Combine with the other defensive measures of the creation, a highly insulated frame and construction allows the puppet to be worn almost as a kind of armor. Additionally, this system prevents stray electrical jolts or attacks to fry the internal machinery of the sensory array.

Name: Kozai Uzumaki
Rank: A
Type: Offensive
Slots: 30 | 30
Description: The first of a collection, Kozai the puppet comes from Kozai the man, a once jounin of the Hidden Cloud Village and a member of the Uzumaki clan. Ayatsuri has replaced his entire skeletal structure with a replacement of her own creation, grown from her own body of dense, chakra-rich bone, adding a huge amount of defenses to the puppet. As in life, Kozai rises only to 5’4” and wears a highly lifelike synthetic skin and retains his dark blue hair and bright yellow-green eyes, giving the puppet a fully lifelike appearance such that could fool even members of the village. This faux-flesh possess a unique quality in that it can, at the will of the master, fill with a reddish liquid which perfectly approximates blushing or other colorings of the skin. Additionally, the fake skin has a warm quality to it, meaning that even a person touching it can be fooled into thinking that the boy is still alive. He wears the clothes of his life, consisting of a plain, thin white t-shirt and dark blue shorts.

Because of the unique creation process, Kozai retains the chakra, chakra system, and special abilities and techniques that he had in life. This allows him full access to his hidden blood line abilities and a devastating array of electrical attacks. Combine with weaponry augmentations from his newfound nature and extra internal space, this can lead to a highly deadly surprise for anyone fighting the once-boy.
Modifications:

• Internalized Joints: So as to better protect the puppet from scrutinizing eyes and pesky substances that would jam the inner workings of the doll, Kozai sports not only the fleshy overlayer but also joints and seems which are fully internalized and perfectly sealed together, preventing anyone looking at him from seeing them and stopping any sand, grit, or other particulate from entering into the puppet’s delicate innards.
  
  
• Auto-pilot String Weaver: A unique modification to this puppet, this simple creation allows for the human puppet and the master to essentially share in the creation of the chakra strings, allowing for the puppet to be manipulated with negligible effort and chakra cost, which allows for massive opportunities in stealth. However, the process required is very delicate and, as such, cannot be maintained if either party is engaged in combat of any sort. Additionally, this allows the master to cause the puppet to speak with a voice that sounds exactly like Kozai’s, though of course the puppeteer must choose what the puppet is to say.
  
  
• Current Generator:  A simple device stored in the upper chest of the puppet, this allows Kozai to electrify himself at will, providing a nasty shock to anyone attempting to grapple with him. Additionally, the electrical flow can channel down the chakra chains he makes, causing the chains to take on a significantly increased ability in capturing and restraining a target.
  
  
• Reinforced Hull: A product primarily of the incorporation of the legendary Kaguya bones and secondarily of fine make and craftsmanship, Kozai has increased resistance to attacks, allowing it to easily stand up to a large beating and continue fighting. A great boon in any puppet, this sort of augmentation becomes increasingly valuable for a human puppet as repairs can be difficult and replacement is neigh impossible.
  
  
• Ballistic Senbon Cannon: Hidden in the stomach of the boy, these twin canisters can launch from a secret hatch at a moment’s notice, flying out towards a target and exploding in a deadly hail of senbon from every angle. The storm of needles is made even deadly in the make, as rather than traditional metal needles, the puppeteer has filled the tubes with needles of bone, sharper and stronger than their metal counterparts.
  
  
• Launcher (Senbon): A simple senbon launcher located in the boy’s left arm, this routes its payload to his fingers, the end joints simply popping off, dangling by a small chain, as the needles fire from their hidden location. Once done firing, either due to lack of ammunition or because the puppeteer has chosen to stop, the fingertips pop back on. The weapon houses a collection of bone needles, each hollowed and filled with a painful bone creating fluid.
  
  
• Magma Cannon: A high powered flame launcher stored in the boy’s empty chest cavity, this weapon expels flaming death from the puppet’s mouth. Capable of launching a vicious stream of hot flames or a few balls of concentrated fire power, this  attack is extremely difficult to predict and can sear through many defenses with ease.
  

Location of Insignia: Upon the left shoulder, like a small tattoo.
