Taka was the first puppet that Kensei created. Kensei usually summons Taka, but when he travels in it, he wears a long ANBU-style cloak to hide his appearance, then when he is in battle, he removes the cloak, expands the wings, and detaches the travelling feet of the puppet, replacing them with the talons Taka uses for battle.
Bio:Born to a genius puppet-user, Kensei learned Kugutsu no Jutsu at a young age. By the age of 3, he could make his toys dance around the room. By the age of 5, he was having spectacular battles with his father, using mini-puppets and practice dummies. At the age of 7, when he was just a genin, Kensei built his very first puppet, Taka, inspired by the legendary battle armor Hiruko. As he was so young it was not very complicated, but he was proud of his achievement. However, one of it's biggest flaws was that it's wooden parts broke easily, and Kensei very nearly failed an important mission because of this. It was while he was studying for the Chuunin exams that Kensei first began experimenting with different types of puppet parts. He quickly noticed that although they made for excellent defense, metal parts were heavy and required a lot of chakra to maneuver. After Kensei became a chuunin, he developed a special metal alloy that was light enough to allow the puppet to move speedily, but still far stronger than wood. He named his alloy Monzaemon, after the first known puppet master. Kensei quickly upgraded Taka, and began work on a whole new series of puppets. Now that he is a jounin, he is well-placed to become Kazekage someday, or at the very least a member of the Village Council.
