Tekuno Kanden

is a jōnin-level shinobi of Konohagakure.

Personality
Tekuno is a very jovial, laidback and charismatic person as seen during a mission and even after when he jokingly boasted of his actions. He can also become very serious as seen when Hayama told him the situation surrounding their mission. He has a great sense of duty to both protect those lower in rank than him as well as the village.

Appearance
Tekuno has a robust build and shaggy brown hair. He wears the standard attire of a Konoha shinobi along with fingerless gloves. He also wears his flak jacket unzipped under which he wears a utility sash with his several scrolls.

Abilities
His abilities primarily revolve around the use of heavy explosive artillery and is also highly skilled at setting traps. He is also very skilled at using wires, often incorporating them into his traps. He was shown to be so proficient with them that he was able to lay them all over the battlefield, then, manipulate them in such a way that he could trap multiple enemies at once. During a mission he was shown summoning a crossbow that he used to fire projectiles with exploding tags attached to them. Along with this weapon he also summoned a few katana, so it can be assumed that he is skilled at using them.

Konoha History Arc
He was assigned to a squad along with Hayama Shirakumo, Kosuke Maruboshi and Naruto Uzumaki to protect the norther boundaries of the village after Suna and Otogakure's invasion of the village. During their mission he was assigned to set traps around the area. Not long after they were ambushed by a battalion of ninja from Iwagakure. Tekuno's traps proved useful in hindering the progress of the ninja but when they had breached these securities, he stayed behind to allow the other members of the squad time to escape and report to the village. He summoned a crossbow with explosive tags attached to the projectiles and along with Hayama wiped out the majority of the ninja. Together the team was able to wipe out dozens of Iwa ninja.

He was later seen helping to restore the village after Pain's Invasion bragging about his heroism on the mission.
