Ninjara

Ninjara is a playable character in ARMS. As a ninja, his gameplay style revolves around stealth.

Appearance
Ninjara appears mostly human except for his red spiraled irises and his coiled chain arms. His green hair is pulled up into a topknot in the shape of a four-pointed shuriken, with chain links to hold it in place. He wears a black, green, and blue suit resembling ninja gear, blue goggles made out of chains, and black and green boots.

Backstory
Ninjara is a training ninja student at the Rasen Ninja University who enjoys reading books and hiding like a ninja. He has come to the ARMS tournament to represent his own university.

Attributes
Ninjara's abilities are designed to evade attacks more easily. For example, each time Ninjara blocks an attack he disappears, thus receiving no shield chip damage, and teleports to a different location, which allows him to counterattack. He can also teleport a short distance in the air while air-dashing.

Throw Damage: 150
