Fresh Serpent Viscera

## In-Game Description

The Great Serpent is considered to be a god of the land, and the heart is believed to be where one's spirit resides. While its shape bears similarity to a persimmon, in fact this is the red viscera of a god. It is safe to assume that eating it would be poisonous to one's health.

## Availability

Reward for defeating the Great Serpent in the Sunken Valley.

## Overview

The following steps are required to kill the Great Serpent:

* Meet the Serpent after the Gun Fort.
* Perform the Puppeteer Ninjutsu on the Rat of Senpou Temple to have him operate the Shinobi Kite.
* Use the Kite to reach the Sunken Valley Cave Sculptor's Idol.
* Execute a lunge deathblow on the Serpent and then final deathblow to murder it.

Required for the Return Ending.

## Notes

* Even if the Great Serpent of the Sunken Valley is killed, the Great Serpent guarding the Dried Serpent Viscera will still be found in the cave.

## Trivia

* By performing a plunging deathblow on the Great Serpent from the Sunken Valley Cave Sculptor's Idol of Senpou Temple and not taking the second deathblow, the Serpent will shallow Wolf without killing him and will bring him to the bridge in front of the shrine with the Dried Viscera.
* Since the death of the Great Serpent has no effect on the other in the cave, it's possible that there are two of these creature or that both share the same body.
* This viscera is the "fresh fruit" the Faithful One of Senpou Temple talks about, after being given Rice.
Dog

Found with patrolling Ashina Swordsmen in Ashina Outskirts, first encountered nearby the Outskirts Wall - Gate Path, and some with Ashina Soldiers also at the Ashina Reservoir and after defeating Gyoubu Masataka Oniwa.

Prowling around in packs in the Temple Grounds in Senpou Temple.

Patrolling the roads of Hirata Estate with Bandits.

Its phantom form is found in the Hidden Forest with phantom Bandits. These dogs are invisible until Wolf is within a close radius of them.

A couple in the beginning of Mibu Village before the first Sculptor's Idol.

### Behaviour and Tactics

* **Lunge**: after a bark, it leaps forward with a bite

Dogs are more perceptive to movement and sound, even if the Wolf has the Suppress Presence and Suppress Sound latent skills unlocked and their bark alerts nearby enemies.

They are weak and can be poise-broken, opening them up for a Deathblow after one deflect, and they otherwise die in one or two hits, or in one hit by a Shuriken.

If the Finger Whistle is used on them, they will turn against whatever enemy is nearby them.

## Shinobi Dog

Found with Interior Ministry Agents on the rooftop of Ashina Castle during the invasion and around the Great Serpent Shrine under the command of Lone Shadow Masanaga the Spear-Bearer.

### Behaviour and Tactics

*Missing information.*

Best defeated using the Loaded Shuriken prosthetic from a distance, or by step dodging their bite.

Inosuke Nogami

## Description

**Inosuke Nogami** (野上伊之助) is a vassal of the Hirata family. He tried to protect the young lord Kuro, when bandits sieged the Estate, but was defeated by Lady Butterfly's illusions. He gives Wolf a Snap Seed, warning him of the danger he's about to face.

He is encountered in Ashina Outskirts, gravely wounded. His senile mother is in a nearby house awaiting his return with a bell in her hand. After Sekiro defeats Lady Butterfly, the Timid Maid will be found dead and Inosuke will too utter his last words before collapsing.

## Location

* Outskirts Wall - Gate Path: next to the house with the Timid Maid inside, before the path guarded by a Cannoneer.
* Hirata Audience Chamber: by the Archer Bandit, just before Lady Butterfly.

* Ashina Outskirts
* Hirata Estate

 **Talking again** | **Inosuke**: Listen... without a Snap Seed, you cannot overcome that illusion technique. I tried my best to be his guardian, but look at me now. The Hirata line is finished... I must save my mother at the very least...

## Notes

* Neither him nor his mother are found anywhere in the alternate version of the Hirata Estate memory.
* Can't contact Dragonrot in Hirata Estate.

## Trivia

* Nogami Gensai is probably one of his relatives.
* Looking at his eyes just before the burning room in the Hirata Estate, they're bleeding and he mentions Lady Butterfly's magic, so it is possible that he has been blinded by her. Three Years Later he is found in Ashina Outskirts, with his eyes bandaged.

## Cut Content

## In-Game Description

Apparently, denizens of the Sunken Valley worship the organs believing they represent the deity itself.

## Overview

Found in Bodhisattva Valley in a shrine at the end of the cave behind the Toxic Memorial Mob.

## Overview

Since the Great Serpent guards the bridge to the viscera, either the Monkey cowering in fear on a ledge below the beast has to be used as a distraction through the Puppeteer Ninjutsu or the Mist Raven has to be employed to bypass the obstacle. The Serpent will block the temple entrance after collecting the treasure.Required for the Return Ending.

## Notes

* Even if the Great Serpent of the Sunken Valley is killed, the Great Serpent guarding this viscera will still be found in the cave.

 Trivia

* By performing a plunging deathblow on the Great Serpent from the Sunken Valley Cave Sculptor's Idol of Senpou Temple and not taking the second deathblow, the Serpent will swallow Wolf without killing him and will bring him to the bridge in front of the shrine with the viscera.
* Since the death of the Great Serpent has no effect on the other in the cave, it's possible that there are two of these creature or that both share the same body.

## In-Game Description

Game Mechanics

* The most common tool, when combined with the grappling hook, is the plunge, allowing for leaping down on enemies to deal damage or instantly kill them when caught unawares.
* Sekiro can also sneak up on enemies, allowing instant take downs.
If yellow, they are cautious or searching, they do not know exactly where Sekiro is at the moment, so they can still be taken by surprise with a Stealth Deathblow.
A Wall Hug Deathblow is a type of Stealth Deathblow that can be performed on unaware enemies. While undetected and hugging a wall, lie in wait for a passing enemy. When the enemy draws close enough, he will be vulnerable to this Deathblow.

* Offering hard-earned battle memories to a Sculptor's Idol will allow Sekiro to enhance his Attack Power.
* If Sekiro can provide the Sculptor the materials he needs, he can upgrade his Prosthetic Arm. These materials can be obtained by defeating enemies and also found throughout the world.

Insanity

The insanity is a state in which the user undergoes a beast like transformation that increases their overall power in exchange for their sanity for a short period of time. The term was coined by one of Brixujel's brothers and is used to describe the mental feeling of it while in this state.

## Description

When the user takes a powerful hit to their head, this triggers the Insanity. The user will normally become very weak during the process. A common thing to happen for all users is for their teeth to grow into fangs, their eyes to glow pink and their personality to do a complete 180. The power in the initial strike determines how long the transformation will last and their intelligence tends to drop compared to their normal state of mind.
Due to the malice of an enemy from brixujel's father's past, they cursed Brixujel and his brothers with the insanity.

## Drawbacks

While this varies between different users, in this form the user may forget who their allies and enemies are. Once the user reverts back to normal they will be extremely weakened for a whole day due to the mental strain and toll on their body. Whatever powers the user has will become near non-existent for the duration of their recovery, and will need to be monitored until they can regain their strength. Users of this can risk death if they don't take the proper measures to recover after each use.

## Users

Page's Diary

Ashina Elite - Jinsuke Saze

## Description

**Ashina Elite - Jinsuke Saze** (葦名流　佐瀬甚助, Ashina School Sase Jinsuke) is an optional Mini-Boss with two Deathblow Counters.

He mostly fights with the Ashina Cross.

## Location

* Upper Tower - Ashina Dojo: inside the dojo.

## Behaviour and Tactics

* **Perilous Sweep**: Sweeps the ground with his katana. Mostly used after he deflects some attack.
* **Ashina Cross**: Quick draws and slash twice rapidly.
* **Retreat**: slashes down and steps back concurrently. Mostly used after his *Ashina Cross* is deflected.
* **Palm Strike**: strikes with his palm before retreating to follow it up with *Ashina Cross*.

It's possible to remove one of his healthbar by consuming a Gachiin's Sugar and hugging the left wall while crouched: Jinsuke won't automatically aggro and will become vulnerable to a Stealth Deathblow.

Saze receives conspicuous amount of Posture damage from getting his *Ashina Cross* deflected: the Gokan's Sugar found right outside the Dojo or Ungo's Sugar can help practicing against this Mini-Boss without the risk of dying from a failed attempt at parrying him.

Given his more generous parry frames, the Loaded Umbrella is highly recommended for deflecting the *Ashina Cross'.*

If attacked after a successful deflection, he'll mostly deflect back and then throw his *Perilous Sweep*.

Dodging to the left is enough to avoid and punish his *Ashina Cross*, which creates an opening to damage his Vitality with the Flame Vent or his Posture with the Loaded Axe.

This Mini-Boss is also extremely susceptible to the Poison of the Sabimaru.

Whirlwind Slash can block Jinsuke in an infinite loop of deflecting and attempint to counter with his *Perilous Sweep* without being fast enough to avoid getting staggered by another immediate Whirlwind Slash.

Practicing spacing, it's possible to out-maneuver Saze with his own move, the Ashina Cross, as this Combat Art close a lot of distance in a split second.

Both Shadowrush and Shadowfall can be employed to safely kill him from a distance, since he won't be able to counter the first thrust, after which it's possible to rapidly create space from him by jump-kicking away.

## Notes

* As the first invasion of Ashina Castle by the Central Forces is triggered, this miniboss will disappear for the rest of the playthrough. However, the Prayer Bead that he would have dropped will still be available in the offering box next to Hanbei for 1500 1500.

Palace Noble

## Description

The **Palace Nobles** are men who mutated into weird fish-like creature through the consumption of the divine water of the Fountainhead Palace.

They have a craving for youth and, when desperate, they are even willing to cannibalise Okami Warriors.

There are two types of Palace Nobles:

## Blue-Robed Noble

### Location:

* Vermillion Bridge: inhabitating the buildings.
* Mibu Manor: guarding the access to the Flower Viewing Stage, alongside Okami Warriors.

## Behaviour and Tactics

* **Opportunistic Lunge**: after performing *Sap Youth* on Wolf successfully, lunges forward, toppling Sekiro, and plunges the flute in his neck.
* **Sap Youth**: raise the flute up to his mouth and starts to beckon the youth out of the Wolf's body. If the meters fills up all the way through, Enfeeblement will occurr, turning Sekiro into an old man who's unable of moving in his usual agile way.

While they're extremely fragile, they can become dangerous if their guards rush to their defense, so it's best to approach the Fountainhead Palace with stealth.

Given their small health pool and defense, Shuriken can safely put them down from the distance.

Gallery
OverpoweredEnfeebledEnfeeblement

**Wolf**: I see.
**Monk**: Are you a shinobi?
**Wolf**: .....
**Monk**: Hmm... If that's the case, then actually... I have a favour to ask of you. The child wanted to know... the reason for her fate. If you do see her by some chance, please give her this...

**Wolf**: Hello?

The resin was found in a black pine within the forests of Mibu Village. The ever-smoldering flames acted as a landmark to find one's way to the village. In time the villagers came to loathe the flames, and the black pines were lost. Those who defended the flame were equally loathed.

Great Coloured Carp

Great Coloured Carp or Nishikigoi is a giant fish found in Fountainhead Palace, fed by the Attendant.

It is first seen when approaching the Flower Viewing Stage where it jumps out of the water and destroys the bridge.

The second encounter is in the cave in the lake, where it will lunge at Wolf, dealing a large amount of damage. Hide among the ruins, but beware that if spotted, it will destroy structures within the cave. After reaching the end and entering a small hole in the building's side, it will stop pursuing the Wolf.

Later, Wolf can feed it Precious Bait near the Feeding Grounds Idol. Doing so will reward Treasure Carp Scales if spoken to the Attendant. This will make the carp non-hostile.

It can also be fed one Truly Precious Bait, given by Pot Noble Koremori or Pot Noble Harunaga. The pot noble whose bait is given to the carp will become a small carp with red eyes themselves, awarding a Lapis Lazuli and inheriting the other, now dead, pot noble's store.

Once fed the Truly Precious Bait however, the koi will disappear and its corpse will be found in the Guardian Ape's Watering Hole along with the Great White Whisker.

## Trivia

* Nishikigoi is based off a koi, a colorful variant of the koi bred for ornamental purposes, usually stocked in garden ponds.
	+ However, it does not have the sucking mouths of normal kois. Instead it possesses molar-like teeth similar to other species of fish, like south american Pacu, which are sometimes referred to as 'fish with human teeth'.

Snake Eyes Followers

## Snake Eyes Cannoneer

* **Side Roll Shot**: rolls to the side, following up with a cannon shot.
* **Sprint Shot**: sprints to the side, abruptly stops and shoots once.
* **Kick**: if attacked repeatedly, he kicks the attacker.

## Snake Eyes Spear-Bearer

Found in the poison pool of Ashina Depths, accompanying Snake Eyes Shirahagi.

### Behaviour and Tactics
