Nothing short of death will cause a shinobi to forsake his mission. - Oboro

Kuromaru

Summon your Kuromaru minion. Because the only thing that's better than a dog is a *ninja* dog.

This black ninja dog once served the Hingan kunoichi Yozakura. As compassionate as he is loyal, he refused to forsake his mistress even after she had turned into an abomination, and chooses to travel with you as part of a pilgrimage dedicated to her soul.
