Snake Eyes is not the only ninja on G.I. JOE’s roster; the mysterious ninja has taken others under his wing, passing on the secrets of the Arashikage clan. Two of those in his mighty shadow are Jinx and Kamakura. Jinx was an expert at martial arts before joining G.I. JOE, having studied various forms throughout her childhood. She was recruited into G.I. JOE by Snake Eyes after he learned she was also from the Arashikage clan. Few are her equal in combat, aside from Snake Eyes. Despite her smaller stature, her speed and strength are not to be underestimated. She knows countless forms: the Eye That Pierces, the Iron Hand, the Heart That Waits, and more. Underestimating her is often the last mistake an opponent makes.

Kamakura, on the other hand, is as mysterious as his master Snake Eyes. He was taken on as an apprentice so that Snake Eyes could impart the secrets of his clan to another, because the only other remaining master—Storm Shadow—has allied himself with COBRA. Kamakura has been an adept pupil, though he still has much to learn. As part of his training, he took a six month vow of silence, but even after completing the vow, it is rare to get more than three words out of him. Snake Eyes is still able to knock him down with ease if Kamakura needs a reminder, but he’s one of G.I. JOE’s most skilled hand-to-hand fighters nonetheless.

Jinx and Kamakura are available in the G.I. JOE Heroscape Strike Forces Army Expansion!
