Name: Mantis (Free Puppet)
Appearence: - Spoiler:
Description: When standing up, the Mantis puppet is roughly 5' 11". When not attached to any strings, the dead weight of the puppet is over 200 lbs. The arm sockets are triple jointed, allowing three arms to move around at the shoulders. This allows the arms to rotate themselves in the socket. The main arms are the ones covered in metal. The secondary and third arms carved out of wood. On the third arms, the puppet is shown to have its own puppets that are attached by ninja wire. For the moment, these puppets have no ability and are used to give the Mantis a more real looking effect
Abilities: The Mantis puppet does not contain any compartments on its body for the moment. This puppet is used for more melee attacks.
Durability: Mantis has a wooden frame on the inside that is covered in armored plaiting. The plating is equal to the durability of steel but this causes the user to use at least five chakra strings due to the bulkiness.
Weapon(s): On both primary arms, there is a foldable wrist blade. Each blade, when fully extended measures four feet long. When it is folded, the blade measures a little more than one and a half feet. The secondary arms hold a single combat knife that has a slight curve to it. Both have the durability of iron.
History: This is one of Maikeru’s more advanced puppets. He had gotten the idea of having puppets with armored plating so they have a less chance of being broken. This puppet was built when he first became a Special Jounin and has never been happier with it. He made it look more like a human being and became very successful in doing it. He first made a prototype version of the Mantis out of wood and had even carved the metal plating out of wood. After he liked what he saw, he set about studying more about the human skeletal system. He first carved a small wooden body that looked like a standard human body. He made the shoulder sockets larger than normal and had stringed together three arms in one shoulder. Maikeru believed that this was his first step into creating the Grand Masterpiece.
