Swordshield Puppet

Yin Puppets armed with brass swords and round brass shields, keenly attuned to their enemies' weaknesses. They deftly turn attacks aside with their shields and counter at once, employing intricate and varied techniques.

When the villagers first saw these puppets fighting Maskwalkers with brass swords that resembled ritual implements, they hailed them as a miracle: the Lady's protection made manifest. They never knew that each puppet held the mind of a Mandate fighter who had spent years battling Maskwalkers... The miracle they so gratefully worshipped was only a spectacle staged by the puppet makers.
