Nendosofu

The Nendosofu (粘土送風) is a special weapon used by Jirhge, a member of Sector R.

Description
The Nendosofu is a unique seashell that acts as a kind of flute, and, when blown into, releases a stream of white clay spheres that mold into several types of animals. These are small animated dolls that, depending upon which variation is created, they will retain the abilities of the creatures they where modelled after, i.e. those resembling birds can still fly.

List of Clay Animals
Mice


 * Useful for tracking or searching, and often created in large number. By not taking roads to travel, the "mice" are inconspicuous, making them the most suitable, not just for searches, but also for delivering information obtained from enemy camps to the destination. Furthermore, if one makes a countless number of mice, it even becomes possible to perform an unworkable number of searches.

Lions


 * Used attacking from a distance, lions can be made. They are usually created in small groups to attack foes directly.

Birds


 * If it's necessary to do reconnaissance from the sky or travel in high-speed, large birds can be made and ridden. Smaller birds can also be used for long-distance or urgent information delivery.

Leeches


 * Used as a low damage projectile-like attack. Larger and heavier leeches can also be made.

Fish


 * Useful in delivering messages in water. The user can also make bigger fishes and travel inside their mouth.

Snakes


 * After being made quickly, the "snakes" can be used as ropes to restrain someone. With the ability to soundlessly enter through even the smallest crevice, they can also be used for assassination purposes.
