Powers

Kemuridama
You activate a kemuridama smoke bomb at your feet. The resulting flash of light and smoke can briefly distract your foes and Placate them so they can no longer find or target you. A mixture of toxins in the smoke also weaken your foes, reducing how much damage they inflict in addition to lowering their chance to hit.
