Nokizaru
The weird name of Nokizaru, or Macaque on the roof, reflects the usual position of this ninja. Having palliated to his lack of physical strenght with deception, the Nokizaru has worked on his Bakemonojutsu, the ghost technique, and has mastered the use of poison. He is the assassin, crawling on rooftops to stab eminent opponents in the back, unseen, unheard and unknown.
Special Notes: This unit is able to hide at night, leaving no trace of its presence. This unit’s skill at skirmishing allows it to ignore enemies’ zones of control and thus move unhindered around them. If there is an enemy of the target on the opposite side of the target while attacking it, this unit may backstab, inflicting double damage by creeping around behind that enemy. The victims of this unit’s poison will continually take damage until they can be cured in town or by a unit which cures.
