The Myriad Forms Puppet Master

He never takes action himself.

His body is frail and sickly, yet his understanding is divine. Surrounded by powerful enemies? Faced with fearsome monsters? Coveted by immortals and demons? It makes no difference.

He either outmaneuvers and subdues them, turning them into loyal hounds; refines their souls into priceless treasures for his protection; or sets wolves against tigers and reaps the rewards from the sidelines.

From a sickly youth struggling to survive to the mastermind who holds the world in his hands, he needs only a thought to make all things bow before him.

Even when his divine art is complete and his body is restored to health, he still can't be bothered to fight. Isn't it more fun to watch his subordinates battle and scheme until his opponents take the bait?

A frail young man uses strategy as his blade and spiritual power as his net, drawing the entire fantasy world into his game. Scheming? He is scheming itself!
