The Takobake Samurai are mutant warriors that tower over their foes, grown massive by the corrupting influence of their Dark Stone-threaded armor. With massive bundles of muscular tentacles for arms, a mighty slash from their deadly katana can slice a man in two! As the personal guard for the Fallen Shogun (the Temple of Shadows boss), the samurai of the Takobake Clan hold a position of highest honor among his forces. They are the most cunning and ruthless of his warriors.

Much like other Samurai warriors in Forbidden Fortress, these mutant samurai have a special deck of Takobake Samurai Battle Tactics which they use with deadly efficiency against the Heroes! This allows them to perform special moves during their attacks as they unleash the full fury of the Takobake Clan.
