According to the comics, Shredder led the clan Foot. In the animated series of 1987, he turned this clan into a criminal gang . In the 2003 version, Foo joined Shredder in the 11th century . Clan Foot is divided into the Japanese branch (it is governed by the adoptive daughter of Shredder Karay) and the New York branch (Shredder, and after his disappearance Karay). The New York clan is also subject to the Purple Dragon gang, but it is headed by Khan, Shredder's bodyguard. Also in the backyard of Shredder are the Heralds or the so-called Mystics - followers of Shredder, who are the embodiment of the five elements - water, fire, earth, wind and metal, and which can only be defeated by the Sword of Tengu , also known as the Goblin Blade.
Clan Foot is divided into ranks:
- Foot ninjas are ordinary warriors, they don’t take strength, so they take a rival together (2– more than 19). Although they are usually not a problem for ninja turtles, for ordinary people they are very dangerous, including gangsters. When Shredder’s adopted daughter, Karay, led the New York office of Foo as a new Shredder, they went through additional training to become faster and stronger, and received new gear;
- Super-Foote is represented by one warrior - a big, well-rounded fighter, with special clothing a little different from other foot ninjas;
- Foot Invisibility - the creation of Baxter Stockman . They are physically much stronger and more agile than ordinary foot ninjas, and their main trump card is the ability to become invisible ;
- Mechanical Feet is the unfinished work of Baxter Stockman. But still they turned out to be very dangerous opponents for turtles if they were finished. They are based on the Utroms' excostuits with a special biochip;
- The elite is the guard of Shredder, the most skilled and merciless of his warriors. The elite includes 4 well-trained warriors. They differ only in weapons. The elite served Shredder as his personal guard, and its members served as commanders on particularly important missions. Each warrior has his own - dvuhklinkov sword , spear , ax , trident . Elite ninjas have the ability to teleport , which helps them get away from the attack or appear effectively, which proves their high level of ninjutsu skill. And in some games they create clones to settle score with the enemy. When Shredder’s adopted daughter, Karay, led the New York office of Foo as a new Shredder, the Elite underwent additional training to make its members faster and stronger, and get new gear, but the weapons remained the same;
- Ninja Mystics (Heralds of Shredder) - Ancient Warriors controlling the elements of water, earth, wind, metal and fire. They can be attacked with the Sword of Tengu. Their weakness is this: the fire melts the metal, the water extinguishes the fire, the earth absorbs the water, the wind blows away the trees of the earth, and the metal is able to stop the wind thanks to its heavy mass;
- Foot bots are robot soldiers;
- Foot sumo fists are feet, but only from Japan. Grasp the enemy and throw it down and then try to crush it.
Films
Ninja Turtles I (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), 1990
In the first and second films, Clan Foote is a group of thieves and murderers, created by Shredder in Japan, but later moved to New York. In addition to Foote from Japan, Shredder included street and difficult teenagers in the group. He taught them ninjutsu and his right hand, Tatsu, helped him with this. Separately, Foote was no match for the Turtles, but their first major fight ended in the fact that Rafael was beaten to a pulp, because he fought all of them alone. The turtles, covering the disconnected brother and the guarding April, were forced to retreat. One of the Foots accidentally short-circuited the wiring and April's apartment, along with her store, caught fire. In all the battles after that, the Turtles easily overpowered Fut while having fun, as they were rather clumsy.
Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Canister (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Secret of the Ooze), 1991
After the apparent death of Shredder and mass arrests, the number of the clan declined sharply. Tatsu tried to lead him, but left this venture when Shredder unexpectedly returned alive. Then the Clan kidnapped Professor Jordon Perry and forced him to make a mutagen, with which Clan Foot was able to create two mutant warriors, called Tokka and Rahzar, who were used to fight the Turtles. Despite the fact that these mutants could be compared in strength with Turtles, the latter were able to reverse the mutation and turn them into harmless animals. Each member of this version of Foote is dressed in a black suit with a red headband. They usually fight with swords, axes, and other weapons, but they are also fought with hand-to-hand Turtles if they go for it. The battle is commanded by Tatsu, while Shredder is left behind.
