The Red Hooded Ninja is one of Sensei's foot soldiers.
Physical appearance[]
The ninja is a lean young man in a red gilet and hood with a yellow trim and a black outfit underneath. He covers most of his face with a red mask and opaque black visor, which has three glowing red dots over his left eye and one larger dot over his right. Under his red hood, he conceals black hair with center-parted bangs, each tapering to a point.[2]
The red hooded ninja ran to Sensei's aid in the battle against Brion Markov, Halo, Sphere, and Forager. The ninja dispatched Forager with extreme ease. Then, when Nightwing's team broke into the Island to extricate their captured allies, the ninja engaged Nightwing in battle. He immediately ceased the skirmish by Ra's al Ghul's command. After the interlopers departed, the ninja took his hood off and slurred the word "Grayson". The Demon's Head was satisfied to see that his memories were returning.[2]
The red hooded ninja was present for Cheshire's reunion with the Sensei, Talia al Ghul and her son, Damian. When Cheshire fled, the ninja reached for his sword and prepared to pursue the former member of the League of Shadows, but the Sensei ordered him to stand down.[3]
The ninja joined Sensei in responding to an explosion outside Ra's's palace. They found Cheshire and the ninja prepared to fight her, when Tigress intervened. The ninja listened as Sensei and Ra's al Ghul offered to help Cheshire and Onyx overcome the conditioning they received as Shadows. Later, he knelt in meditation with Sensei, Cheshire and Onyx as Talia watched them.[4]
