== Military Innovator ==
Takehiko was known as an eccentric military innovator, and the Return of the Ki-Rin spirited him to prepare to combat large cavalry armies. The sight of kite-flying at Otosan Uchi led him to develop the nemuranai known as Takehiko's Kite, with the aid of powerful Kitsu and Isawa Shugenja. When it was flown, its flyer was able to see as though his eyes were at the Kite's point of perspective, which gave an unvaluable airborne perspective in battle.
