Under his gauntlets are his wrist mounted grappling claws. He wears traditional suneate greaves made from the same materials as the gauntlets.

Personality
Violent and quiet, he always finds himself thinking of a solution to a situation that most of the time won't happen. And when it does happen, he usually comes out on top. He is a genius when it comes to problem solving, quickly understanding and adapting to situations almost instinctively. He lacks empathy for those he fights and surprisingly those who he saves. Due to his past, violence has always been his answer, not knowing the difference between right and wrong. He is guided by his hallucinations, however. These hallucinations often trick him into doing evil and eventually are the reason why he goes insane.

Whenever Agent Shinobi finds himself with no work to do, he usually uses that time to sleep. Even though he is a psychopath, his affection towards animals shows that he has some humanity in him. He is able to somehow communicate to canines and birds of prey.
